The Glenn Beck Program - What RFK Jr. Should Do with the FDA on Day 1 | Guests: Alex Jones & David Harsanyi | 11/15/24

Episode Date: November 15, 2024

New cellphone data regarding the January 6 pipe bomb mystery directly contradicts the FBI's testimony regarding a suspect. Glenn sets the record straight on his views on January 6 and whether particip...ants should receive pardons. President-elect Trump has nominated RFK Jr. as health and human services secretary. Glenn and Stu discuss what RFK Jr.'s focus should be and the possible concern that such an icon of the Democratic Party may be a part of Trump's Cabinet. Glenn's chief researcher, Jason Buttrill, joins Glenn and Stu as Glenn breaks down the crony corruption involved with anything the FDA approves. The internet broke when reports came out that the satirical website the Onion purchased Alex Jones' Infowars. But was it a legitimate auction? Alex Jones joins to expose how Infowars was privately sold while disguised as an auction that a judge hadn't even approved. The Federalist senior editor David Harsanyi joins to discuss his new book, "The Rise of BlueAnon," which exposes Democrats for being the biggest election deniers while trying to cast Republicans in that role. Glenn, Stu, and Jason discuss the upcoming Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight and the recent UFO congressional hearing.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Starting point is 00:00:00 I want to talk to you about a new sponsor to the program that I'm really excited about. And in fact, I was a client of theirs before they were a client here. It's up phone. I was looking for a phone. If I have to carry a phone, I want something that's not sending my tracking data everywhere. I don't want all my data of, you know, just anything about my life. I'm not doing anything. I just don't want the propaganda industrial complex to have all of the information.
Starting point is 00:00:30 on me. So I went to look for a phone and the one that I found was the up phone. It is a digital fortress. It doesn't exist in either the Apple or Google mobile ecosystems. First of all, it comes with its own operating system and app store, its own messenger, which you can make end-to-end encrypted calls, video calls, you can send files and photos, even create secure group chats, plus a VPN and antivirus. If you are tired of being monitored and surveilled and digitally exploited by big tech for far too long, then you need to go to unplugged.com slash Glenn and look at the up phone. It's unplugged.com slash Glenn. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We've got a lot coming on the program today. We have Alex Jones. He's going to be commenting on
Starting point is 00:02:04 exactly what happened yesterday as the government seemed to violate its own rules. Hmm, haven't seen that. Oh, except January 6th. We've got a couple of things to talk about on January 6th, something that people are accusing me of now regarding January 6, and I want to clear this one up. But also, have you heard the latest that the phone company say, no, we have all the data on the phone calls from the pipe bomb people? Well, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Could you say that again? We begin in 60 seconds.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Stand by. Remember that time when you went into the kitchen one morning and your dog was standing there and an apron, you know, just making pancakes from scratch. If the answer to that is, yes, I'd like to talk to your drug supplier. It might be taking too many. The answer is no, your dog doesn't have a choice. He eats whatever it is you put down or doesn't eat what you put down. You want your dog to eat and eat something really good, and they need live things in their food.
Starting point is 00:03:13 This is a supplement. This is not a dog food. But you put this on your dog's food and it changes them. It really does. You know, there's a reason they're out in the yard eating stuff that they just laid down, you know, they're missing something in their diet is wrong. That's because if you're feeding your dog kibble food, it's dead food. There's nothing in it that is really good for them.
Starting point is 00:03:35 You need to put all of that stuff back in and have it as green as possible. Right now you can get a free Rough Greens jumpstart trial bag. go to roughgreens.com slash Beck or call 833 Glenn 33. It's 833 Glenn 33, Roughgreens.com slash Beck. So new revelations heightened the mystery and the scrutiny of the FBI surrounding one of the most disturbing security failures on the day of the Capitol riot. Cellular carriers have told Congress that they do possess intact phone usage data from the vicinity where two pipe bombs were planted during the January 6th incident. This directly disputes FBI testimony that agents couldn't identify a suspect because the phone
Starting point is 00:04:24 data was corrupted. Huh. What's all that about? We are going to find that the FBI and the DOJ was involved and set this whole thing up. I absolutely believe that's what's coming. They had agents that were souping the crowd up. I don't know if agents were, you know, any of the faces that we have seen on television, but you can't trust a damn thing out of the FBI.
Starting point is 00:05:02 January 6, 2021, the FBI opened the investigation into the pipe bombers and attempted to identify the suspect by analyzing cell phone data linked to the area surrounding the DNC and the RNC. Two years later, the former assistant director in charge of the Washington Field Office, who is the guy who, you know, was in charge of the investigation of we're going to kidnap the governor of Michigan. He's the guy who oversaw the pipe bomb investigation. He said all of the cellular data was corrupted. Now, why are we just finding out?
Starting point is 00:05:40 Why did the cell companies not come out and say, excuse me, here's the cell data. It's not corrupt. Answer, they're afraid of the DOJ. This is entirely corrupt, which leads me to something that, I don't know, the Thompson twins or the double mint twins or whoever they are, posted the Hajj twins, right? Doubleman twins. Yeah, I don't know. They're terrible. They're good dudes, but it's a weird, weird ad campaign for minty gum.
Starting point is 00:06:19 So the Hodge twins came out and said, hey, Glenn Beck, is this true about you? I hope not. The breaking news that came out yesterday, Glenn Beck at Blaze TV is calling for NFL linebacker arrested for being at the Capitol building on January 6th not to be pardoned by Donald Trump. Huh? You think Glegg knows the name of an NFL linebacker? What are you nuts? You do not need my new book to figure out that this is not true, okay?
Starting point is 00:06:52 There's no way I even know what you're talking about. Which NFL linebacker? That won't help me because I don't know any of them. Okay. So that has got to be one of the worst internet rumors. I've ever heard of my life. Okay, so they write and say, Hey, Glenn Beck, is this true?
Starting point is 00:07:14 I hope not. We know they all have got to be pardoned. You want pardons for all J-Sixers, right? Would be easier to clear all this up. Then one of my producers, Ricky, whose our realities are. She is. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Jeez. You don't want to get Ricky pissed off? Do not piss off, Ricky. She was a little pissed off. Glenn has repeatedly called for all non-violations. offenders to be pardoned. They respond. Non-violent is BS because the feds charged half the people with violence.
Starting point is 00:07:50 They all have to be pardoned. If he only said non-violent, then he is wrong and should be called out. She said he's not talking about what the fed say who is violent and who isn't. The guy you quoted clearly has not listened to a second of Glenn and is short at some brain cells. if someone is on camera beating a cop or smashing windows, then, I mean, she said this, I didn't, they're a retard, and the president shouldn't be expected to pardon them. This is probably at the end of her day, which is...
Starting point is 00:08:23 Oh, that's her right at right where she wakes up. Don't give her, that's not the end of the day. She's going for it. Strangely, not that much worse than the beginning of her day. But so here's what I, here's what I want to say on this. And I think this is really important. I am blanket statement for justice and equal justice. Anyone who has done wrong and broken the law should go to jail for the appropriate time.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I believe if you are breaking windows of the Capitol or a Macy's building during a riot, if you are stealing stuff from Macy's, throwing flagpoles at police at the Capitol, jail time is warranted for you. Now, that's my blanket statement. Now, let's break that down a bit because it gets really hard in this case because of the misconduct by the DOJ. For instance, have you seen the video of the woman who police say was violent? She was in a crowd in one of those tunnels just trying to get out. And she was trying to trying to push her way out because it was getting very violent. And police pinned her up against the wall and then started beating her with a club.
Starting point is 00:09:46 And she was the one charged. Okay. So I don't trust the charges that were presented in court. Now, I want you to know that my stance is a blanket statement. I'm for anybody who is violent going to jail. Anyone that could be proven violent should go to jail. A lot of footage. In an equal justice sort of way.
Starting point is 00:10:20 This is Donald Trump's stance. He said there should be pardons based on a case-by-case basis. That's his stance as of what time is it right now? That's his stance. I think that's a reasonable stance. I want the same kind of justice for January Sixers as I want for BLM rioters. All Americans left and right should want this. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Now, with that said, here's one thing that you have to understand. If you want to go all John Adams, which I think you might have to on this. If you want to go all John Adams on this, what we do in our society and have long done in our justice system, if those who committed a crime, even murder or any other heinous act, if the prosecution withheld information, which the DOJ did in this, worked in collusion against the defendant, any defendant, then all need to be released as the entire pot has been contaminated.
Starting point is 00:11:38 And as John Adams says, I would rather have five guilty men go free than one innocent man be wrongfully imprisoned. This is the standard the Justice Department has always held until recently. The problem that we're having with the January 6th thing is, stems from the misconduct of the Justice Department in collusion with the Capitol Police, in collusion with the media, in collusion with politicians.
Starting point is 00:12:13 And anyone who actually cares about justice knows that this is the standard long held by the courts and Americans, any Americans, seeking true justice. If the prosecution has done anything wrong, which they have, then everyone has to be released. That's John Adams stand, and I'm all for it
Starting point is 00:12:38 if we want to have that conversation. Blanket, I am for justice, but you cannot have justice if your justice department is corrupt. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what's controversial about that viewpoint. I mean, you know, it never has been.
Starting point is 00:12:57 I mean, there is a clear standard as to who should be released as being, you know, because they were too violent in these moments. And the standard is Donald Trump's eyeballs. He has whatever power he wants to pardon these people. So the people he chooses are the ones that are going to get pardoned. I don't think if he sees, Donald Trump's pretty pro police. If Donald Trump sees a video of a guy hitting a police officer over the head with a flagpole, I don't think he's going to want to release those people with lesser punishment. Now, you might be right.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Maybe he just does it all. He's talked about that and, you know, he bounces around with a specific language. His latest thing is case by case. Yeah. So here, but here's the problem. Let me play devil's advocate. Sure. Here's the problem with this.
Starting point is 00:13:44 You have innocent people sitting in prison. Mm-hmm. Because this is why we always release people. You know, you have a prosecutor that is found doing one thing wrong in one case. And if there is any kind of suspicion that that kind of behavior has happened with other cases, they dismiss all of them. They say, tainted. This prosecutor is tainted.
Starting point is 00:14:13 And so we have to release all of them because there might be others that this happened to that are innocent sitting in jail. This is the penalty for the Justice Department. Hey, all that work you did, all that time and make a lot of. in the case, all of your prestige for, you know, being somebody who is bringing people to justice, it's all flushed down the toilet because you didn't do it right this one time or these three times. Okay. So you have innocent people sitting in jail. Why should they have to wait, which a process that could take months? Why should the innocent remain in prison so we can sort through and find the good ones and the bad guys?
Starting point is 00:15:00 Well, I mean, I think this, when it comes to pardoning, this is completely Donald Trump's call. Yeah. He has, this is his most king-like power. Right? So he can do whatever he wants. And that is sort of the beginning and the end of the story. Yeah. So, you know, I mean, when it comes down to making these decisions, Donald Trump, it seems like, as we've seen over the past couple of weeks, has really been thinking about all of the stuff quite a bit.
Starting point is 00:15:24 So my guess is he's got a pretty good handle on as to who. the few people, I bet it's a few, that he thinks are over the line and should not be pardoned. But I mean, like, you of all people to be questioned on this, you know, Steve Baker works here. He's one of the people that would need to be pardoned, right? He has also spent a good chunk of the past four years in courtrooms reporting on others who also should be out of prison. He's gone through thousands of hours of video to exonerate. rate people who were involved, who were there on January 6 and charged falsely. I mean, the amount of work that the blaze has done by itself is, I think, as much or more than any other news organization out there to make sure the people responsible for overreach are called out and brought to the attention of someone like Donald Trump who can now do what he wants to do with it.
Starting point is 00:16:26 So let me suggest something that I think is reasonable to suggest here. I'll do that in 60 seconds. So let me tell you about U.S. Navy corporal and sheriff's officer Lori Wood on top of her service to both her country and her community. She's known for educating and mentoring aspiring law enforcement officers and impacting the next generation. Sadly, it was during one of those training exercises where she was trying to do exactly that. Lori fell from the roof of a mock house in a training village. the impact left her paraplegic, changing her life forever. Well, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation stepped in and provided Lori and her son Gavin a smart-free, mortgage-free home.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Sorry, smart home mortgage-free. It's specially adapted smart home for her. The modifications to the home allow her to live in a two-story environment that is more accessible for her. Lori is fiercely independent. She's one of our heroes and assistance from Tunnel to Tower. Foundation has helped her stay that way. This is what the foundation does with a generous help from people like you. Would you be willing to give $11 a month to honor these heroes and keep our promise to always respect them and honor them for what service they gave and were gravely injured or gave the highest price?
Starting point is 00:17:46 Tunnel to Towers. Make your donation now at T, the number 2t.org. That's T2T.org. 10 seconds, station ID. New album, home for the bells that'll tinkle all you travel away. Every book back because Christmas
Starting point is 00:18:15 is coming again. New album, home for Christmas, uh, is by Cheyenne Grace. I produced it. You're going to love it. It's available on Black Friday at all platforms.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Uh, all right. So let me suggest this, Stu, that because we know the justice department used the just the system as a punishment. Usually you go through a fair trial and everything else, but they dragged this out. They did everything they could to persecute these people for the last four years. Would you agree with that? Yeah, they've, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:57 I mean, like Jay Johnston is my example of this. Like guys seem to have done basically nothing and now he's going to prison. Correct. And for the last four years, his life has been hanging in the balance. Yep. Steve Baker is another example. Never knowing. It is horrible what these people went through. If you broke into Macy's, you would not spend more than four years in prison. Okay. Right. So I would suggest that everyone is released with time served. However, then you take it. it case by case and those who legitimately did something bad, those people do not have it wiped from the record. So they're not pardoned. Everybody gets time served.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Then you pardon everybody. So it's wiped from your record. Everybody who was parading. Prating. Yeah. I mean, because that's the only thing I can. think of that would be fair for everybody. You can't let innocent people sit in jail another day.
Starting point is 00:20:09 This should be one of the first things he does when he gets into office. But there were bad people. You know what this is? Look, there were good people on both sides. Not the Nazis. Okay. They're doing exactly the same thing. They're going to say Donald Trump is just letting everybody out.
Starting point is 00:20:31 and they will use the few that actually did something wrong. Meanwhile, we all know those who actually did a lot of the wrong or encouraged it have walked away. We don't know the pipe bomber because the cellular information was corrupt. Just that alone should be the end of January 6th. Should be the end of it. just them saying for four years, well, it was corrupt. And now, because times have changed and everybody's worried that, uh-oh, I'm going to get caught up in this,
Starting point is 00:21:10 now the cell phone companies come out and say, um, yeah, it wasn't corrupt. We gave them everything. That alone should be enough of a, of a fraud on the American people and on everybody who was going to court to dismiss. this from everybody. But there were people that did wrong. Okay. So let's
Starting point is 00:21:35 not pardon them, but time served. I mean, that's an approach. I think it's a valid one. Trying to be fair. Yeah. I think look, I understand that right now there's like, you know, Donald Trump's going to come into office.
Starting point is 00:21:51 He's going to make these decisions. It's really, we don't have any input on it. The input that we had on it was whether we voted for him or not. Yeah, but we should have an opinion. Yeah. My opinion is, like, and I, look,
Starting point is 00:22:03 if you beat the hell out of a police officer, I don't care. I don't care if you happen to do it on January 6th or any other day. I am. You stay in prison for as long as your term is, and I don't feel bad about it for a second. I agree with you. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:22:16 However, we know they gave extended sentences, and we know this whole thing was corrupt from the start. So how do you, how do you not punish the people who are, in prison, their lives have been destroyed. How do you get them out of jail today? So they don't have to wait in
Starting point is 00:22:37 line and spend another six months or a year in prison wrongfully. All right. We're going to go to RFK. I have been waiting to talk to us to do about this. That'll be fun. It'll be fun. You know what? I'm in a good mood though, Glenn. Okay, good. I don't know if you happen to watch some football last night.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Oh. Philadelphia, defeating Washington, a glorious football. ball game. And by the way, even to make it more glorious, I hit my prize picks lineup. And here's a thing. You might say, wait a minute, I looked at your prize picks lineup. You posted it on your Twitter account, and you only got two of the three right. How did you win? Well, I've got a flex play. That's right. I still want, even though I only got two of my three picks right, this is so fun about price picks, because you can even screw it up and still be okay with your prize picks lineup. Price Fix invented the flex play, which means you can still cash out if your lineup isn't perfect. You can turn your sports opinions into money all year long with the Price Picks app.
Starting point is 00:23:40 This is the number one fantasy sports app out there. If you use the code Steele, you get 50 bucks instantly when you play only five bucks. The code is Stu on Price Picks to get 50 bucks instantly when you play only five bucks. You don't even need to win to receive that $50 bonus. It's guaranteed. Price Picks run your game. All right. You don't want to miss RFK.K.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Junior being appointed HHS. Next. Christmas cannot come fast enough. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're glad that you're here and listening today. I want to talk about RFK. RFK has been named the HHS secretary. Nominated, yes.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Nominated. He's going to get through. I mean, he's going to get through if they have recess appointments. I will say, very likely he gets some Democrat votes. I mean, the first people off the bench to make sure they were cheering this on were Democrats. So very possible, he gets a bunch of Democrat votes for this and he does get through if they go through confirmation. Let me ask you something. They say that Donald Trump, you know, is so divisive and everything else.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Can you think of any president that has ever put in a major role an icon? Khan of the other side? I can't. Either can I. I mean, I'll just ask. This is just a question. Yeah. Any part of you a little concerned?
Starting point is 00:25:43 Yeah. That we now have two lifelong Democrats nominated to very high-level positions. Not Tulsi. I'm not worried about Tulsi. Good. I've had enough conversations. Just the two of us, no cameras, no microphones, eye to eye. And look, Republicans are far.
Starting point is 00:26:01 from perfect. Yeah. So that's not to say that there are not Democrats with, with wonderful opinions. I'm a little, I'm a little, I get a little concerned when you have people who have a long-term worldview that changes in a short period of time and then are elevated to high power,
Starting point is 00:26:20 however, powerful positions in the government. I have, I don't trust RFK, you know, he's not personally, and I'm not one to judge, but the way he had. dealt with women and it's the whole family. Okay. Uh, yes. Uh, you know, not been good. Not being good. Not being good. Uh, and, you know, but he's not being nominated for husband. That's,
Starting point is 00:26:43 that's, uh, that's the lady. I would stand against that. Yeah. Okay. So here's the, here's the thing with RFK. I have talked to him. And if I was to hold myself to the standard I have always applied to everyone else. Mm-hmm. If you can tell me, long hell. vision of something and I'm right on this and then you flip you should be able to tell me exactly when that happened
Starting point is 00:27:11 exactly when you went you know enough is enough yeah okay and he's certainly gone through stuff that would that would create a change he's told me that that and he told me that story it was during COVID was it censorship just of him or what was no
Starting point is 00:27:25 I don't remember seeing the state starting to take things and going way overboard. He saw what he had always preached, but he thought that people would be more reasonable. He never thought, well, you know, my government, my people will never go wrong. We'll never do that. Just like many Republicans think, you know, their side. No, both people are in both parties. People go wrong a lot. They go rogue and they go authoritarian. And so when he saw, especially in California and New York, what was happening? And you were told you are not really a member of
Starting point is 00:28:06 society unless you inject this into your body. He realized, holy cow, I've been wrong on this. And he's been right on the issue of vaccine mandates for as long as I've known. He's never been a guy who's wanted vaccine mandates. But that's been, of course, the thing he opposed. The problem, of course, with authoritarian is they like to oppose, they like to support mandates on things they like and oppose them on things they don't. That's where I would disagree with his fundamental worldview, but he does, he does claim to have changed that. Correct.
Starting point is 00:28:40 And the proof will be in the pudding. Yeah. You know, if he gets in and he starts taking away choices on things, then we know he really hasn't changed. What I'm looking for on the vaccine front. I happen to believe there's something wrong with the vaccines that we're doing. Maybe the combination of them. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 00:29:05 But when your kids are getting 30 to 80 different vaccines and autism is going through the roof, something's wrong. It's like the peanut allergy thing. I don't know what causes that. But it wasn't happening to us when I was a kid. I mean, you could have slathered peanut butter on the top of everybody's desk in every classroom in America when I was going to school and nobody would be like, I got peanut allergies. Wouldn't have happened. So what happened to us?
Starting point is 00:29:38 And it is important that we look into that. That doesn't mean that you have to be forced to, you know, get rid of Jif or whatever it is unless it's clearly poison. Which is not. I want to know what's happening to our health. Why our bodies are like this. I happen to believe that there is too much in heavily, or what do they call it, ultra-processed foods, which have saved the world from starving.
Starting point is 00:30:14 I mean, it's a balancing act. It has saved the world from starving. However, in our case, because we're never starving here, has this been whacked way out of balance for America? I don't know the answer. But I think that's what science should be looking into. Not our HHS secretary saying, you know, we're looking into global warming because it affects the health of black children. What are you talking about? Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Studies, by the way, RFK would have absolutely. adored not too long ago. Maybe, I don't know. I trust him as about as far as I can throw in. And you do know. He was up for, he was going to be also, this is not the first cabinet position he's been considered for. The other one was
Starting point is 00:31:03 EPA head under Barack Obama. Which would have been a nightmare. Right. So, you know, it would have been a nightmare. And look, and Donald Trump knows that. I mean, Donald Trump has said on stage, he has said it in person. I know what we have here. He's got radical ideas.
Starting point is 00:31:19 And as long as he stays in his lane and we're not going, you know, all over with global warming and everything else, I think we should listen to him. We should be clear. His lane in this particular case is running an operation with a $2 trillion budget. I know that. So can he improve it? I'm sure there are improvements he can make things like over, you know, trying to, you know, vaccine mandates is the easiest one, right? I don't necessarily agree with you on vaccines. Obviously, there are many arguments that you know well that would push back against the things that you're concerned about.
Starting point is 00:31:55 And you can choose yourself whether you vaccinated your kids or not. And I can get to choose that for me. And I think if he has had this change from authoritarian, which I don't think there's any question that's what he was. I mean, obviously. Oh, he said it. He told me he was. He was that guy. If he's had that change from that to a person who respects personal liberty,
Starting point is 00:32:16 I think he has in some areas. I'm concerned when he's convinced he's right about something that those those inclinations go away. And that's where President Trump comes in to make sure. Yes. And look, Trump, look, Trump loves his, he's famous for bringing McDonald's to football to the White House. He's not like some crude when it comes to ingredients.
Starting point is 00:32:40 He likes his food. He likes, you know, there's no question about that. Here's what Robert F. Kennedy should be encouraged to do. First of all, I don't trust science anymore, do you? I mean, you trust something, right? You're trusting something. You're trusting the RFK version of science right at this point. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I don't.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Because I don't know. Everything's been politicized. Yeah. So, that's true. You know, I don't trust. I'm looking for gravity exists. That's what I'm looking. The planet is round.
Starting point is 00:33:23 Oh, don't get the people started. You're getting them started now. So I'm looking for things that are universally true and are not changed by politics or opinions of anyone. This is true. I don't know if we have those scientists anymore because the whole system. has been so corrupted. We have some. Yeah, we have, I think we have many. I think we have a lot of really good scientists who do a lot of really good work. So do I trust science? Yeah, I trust science. But I don't trust necessarily the public messengers of science. And that, look,
Starting point is 00:33:56 includes RFK Jr. I know that. I don't trust. I just, that's just who, and that's why I always feel like the answer at the end of this is individual freedom. Individual ability to make choices. And if we start banning things because RFK Jr. doesn't like them, I'm against that. But here's what I'm here's what I whether you think they're good or not, right? Let me go back to what he what I was going to say on what his main. This is what he should concentrate on. Getting the pharmaceutical companies and big food and I don't even care if it's big spoon, big bowl, big fat guys. Anybody who is is out there that benefits from what the FDA approves and doesn't.
Starting point is 00:34:40 I don't want revolving doors where you're working for the FDA and then you get a sweetheart gig at some food or pharmaceutical company. I don't want that. They should be adversaries. They should be reasonable. But you can't keep going from one to the other. He's got to clean up this nightmare. It's a problem. Of crony capitalism.
Starting point is 00:35:08 It's a problem, although it's also a chance. challenging problem because of course who knows about pharmaceutical medications other than people you don't you don't come from you know the the janitor industry and become an expert on this no but there's you have to be have to have some experience and understanding how it works so but you're right it should not be coronary capitalism is wrong and it's and i always hate that term because it's not capitalism no it's not when the government has a lot of power to do things over corporations it's not it's not capitalism at all socialism or fascism so here's the thing There are enough really well-qualified doctors.
Starting point is 00:35:44 We found them during COVID that they like science. They like doctors. They like medicines. It's true. They don't like the lies that are involved and the money that is exchanging hands behind the scenes in record numbers. I'm against that. I think you're against that. That's what I hope RFK does.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Yeah, and he may. You know, I think he will on some things. I'm concerned. I am legitimately concerned about it. I don't think it's a great appointment. I would pick somebody else. And if you were going to give RFK Jr. a role, I would prefer it to be in more of a an adversarial role or advisory role, right?
Starting point is 00:36:27 Something that they can just say, okay, no. The problem is you put him in as the HHS secretary. When you want to replace him, you're talking about another confirmation process. So he's going to have a lot of leeway. and I think probably too much leeway. But I don't know. Let me take a quick break and come back on this. Because regulation is one of the top priorities for him, just slashing regulation.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Trump? RFK. He's like the FDA is so corrupt, it should almost be shut down. He may have said it should be shut down. Let me start there when we come back. First, let me talk to you about the Ministry of Preborn. They are doing, I mean, they are the champions of. the cause. First of all, I said this in a speech the other day. I was talking to a bunch of Catholics
Starting point is 00:37:13 about abortion. And I have to tip the hat to the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church cared about abortion before anybody else cared. And they've been fighting on the front lines forever. Now, pre-born has come in in the last, I don't know, decade or two. And they really have developed a system that is so smart and so, well, I can't say, I can't say, I guess. I don't want to reveal anything. They're just really smart, and they know how to attack this. And it is the right thing to do because they're talking about the moms and the babies. Right now, for $28, you can sponsor an ultrasound.
Starting point is 00:37:55 That doubles the chance that mom will choose life. And through a match, your tax deductible gift will be doubled. So preborn also supplies moms with diapers, car seats, counseling, books. I mean, everything. I'm incredibly proud to work with Preborn, and I'm so proud that you feel the same way, so let's keep it going. One ultrasound is $28, $140 will save five babies, and babies are worth fighting for. Maybe you can make a monthly donation of $28.
Starting point is 00:38:27 It donate securely at pound 250. Say the keyword baby. That's pound 250 keyword baby, or go to preborn.com slash Beck. It's preborn.com slash Beck. All gifts are tax deductible, and preborn has a four-star. charity rating. Fight, fight, fight, fight for the babies. Sponsored by Preborn. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. So you may have noticed that college campuses all across the country, there's an awful lot of anti-Semitism going around these days, especially after the events of October 7th of last
Starting point is 00:39:06 year. Sometimes it seems like those things that we were supposed to never forget, get forgotten. So suddenly you're against rape of innocent children and women? Not suddenly, but yes, I have There's a film coming out this month that is a powerful reminder of what the evil of anti-Semitism looks like and what courage in the face of that evil looks like called Bonhofer. I just watched it. It is powerful. Really? It is so good. I love this story.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Bonhofer is one of my heroes, somebody I really would like to be like. I didn't even know who he was until you. And I've watched a lot of World War II stuff. I know. How did we miss this guy? Well, you didn't miss him. I mean, well,
Starting point is 00:39:46 I did for until I was 35 or 40. Yeah, multiple decades. But his message is really, really important. His story is incredible. And I remember Glenn saying to me, someone's going to make an amazing movie about this.
Starting point is 00:39:58 This is it. This is it. It's been done. This is great. So you want to go see this movie. It is, you know, he was shifting from preaching peace to an assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler.
Starting point is 00:40:11 The entire thing is incredible. You can find out this Thanksgiving by ordering your tickets in advance at angel.com slash back is about how amazing this guy's story is. Check this out right now. It's angel.com slash back. Angel.com slash back. Get your tickets today. Maybe it's much too early in the game. I thought I'd ask you just the same. What are you doing New Year? What number does her album need to get to on Spotify? for you to do a duet that is also released on Spotify.
Starting point is 00:41:02 That's the question you won't answer. I could just see you were just singing the song and you have got great voice. You and her together. I would love to do, but I would never want to anybody to hear it. Oh, I know, but that's the whole point. I want to hear it.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Number one, number one on Spotify. Okay. Yeah, okay. Not a chance that happens. If it gets the number one on Spotify. Yeah, all right. Okay. I don't know what the chart looks like.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Yeah, it's not going to happen. But anyway, it comes Black Friday. it's Cheyenne Grace, home for Christmas. It's a great, great CD for Christmas. Okay, so let me go here. Here's what RFK, another thing I hope he does, is just cut the federal regulations like crazy. Now, some people are going to say,
Starting point is 00:41:49 you can't do that, raw milk. Oh, shut up. 30 states say it's okay for raw milk. Yeah. Okay, the FBI. has made it almost, I'm not sorry, the FDA has made it almost impossible, the Amish. They've never had anyone getting sick from their milk. And yet the FDA was in their face all the time trying to shut them down.
Starting point is 00:42:11 In a way, I'm glad they were because they came out in food. I know. It actually worked against them and I appreciate that. So, you know, there's stuff that we know. And, you know, you can have standards. The problem is, is there fecal material on the cows' As long as they're clean. I know. As long as it's clean
Starting point is 00:42:31 and sanitary, you don't have a problem. You don't need the pasteurization. Okay. Okay. He needs to cut these things out. Do you know how yellow fruit loops are how that came to be? Yellow number five, they went to the FDA and they said,
Starting point is 00:42:50 hey, we want to make free loops. We want to make them yellow. They said, okay, prove that they're safe. Wait until you hear the process on how their maids. It's insane. It's absolute corruption. It is a money laundering system. That has to come to an end. I'll explain it. Coming up. Let me tell you about Rough Greens. If you eat McDonald's 24-7 every day of your life, you're not going to be the healthiest. We all know that. We all know that. Having McDonald's from time to time is great. If you're a feeding your dog kibble food, it's like feeding him McDonald's every day of his life.
Starting point is 00:43:38 This is why when you put rough greens, all of the probiotics, antioxidants, the vitamins, the minerals, everything else, when you put that back in the kibble through this supplement, rough greens, your dog is going to start feeling better, you know, because he's living on French fries and Big Macs. Oh, what a life that would be. Get your first bag free, your Trial bag. It's a jumpstart trial bag. I think that's like a $20 value. You get it for free. They're just asking you to pay for the shipping. See if your dog loves it as much as Uno. See if you see the difference. And then start them up full time. 833 Glenn 33. It's rough greens.com slash Beck. 60% of the vans on Amazon, proven to venders independent, like sack magic.
Starting point is 00:44:26 Hello, here Camille of SACMagic. Our compresses chode-fraud are fabricated here even, with the tissues that we're in the New York and some the adjoin'clock and the admon that's in the
Starting point is 00:44:37 base of clientele to the world entire. SacMagic, is the compress that all the world prefer. At from here, we're grandes.
Starting point is 00:44:45 Trouver of little enterprises like the on Amazon.C. This is program. All right, we're going to talk about aliens.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Believe it or not, there was a hearing on Capitol Hill Nobody paid attention to. but Jason did. Jason Petrill, who is our chief researcher for the TV program and radio program, he's going to join us to talk about that. But I also want to finish this conversation with RFK. And, you know, I don't understand libertarians how they're not seeing,
Starting point is 00:46:10 now caveat here, not necessarily RFK, but they're not seeing that this is the greatest gift to libertarians ever. The stated goal, at least, is to just dismiss. Mantle the big state. This is fantastic. That's why I'm excited. But let's talk about RFK in 60 seconds. Oh, and Alex Jones joins me at the bottom of the hour.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Good ranchers, we should be grateful all year round for the blessings that God has seen fit to bestow upon us and our nation. I mean, we are living in the greatest country, the greatest land, I believe, in the world. One of the things I'm thankful for is the freedom to be a rancher, to raise my own cattle. and if I want a steak, I can go to the store and buy a steak. The meat I choose is either from my cows or from Good Ranchers,
Starting point is 00:47:03 which are probably some of my neighbor's cows. During their Thanksgiving special, you can choose any box of their 100% American meat, their wild-caught seafood, and you'll get a free 10-pound spiral-cut ham. Free. All you have to do is shop with good ranchers. You're directly supporting the local farms and ranchers
Starting point is 00:47:23 in the United States. So it's 100% American meat. Get a free 10-bow spiral-cut ham connected directly to American farms and the ranches this November at good ranchers.com. If the food you eat, you want to know what's in it, you want to know what vaccine the cattle have been getting, what it's been fed and where it's from, if that matters to you, put the car keys down and go, stop going to the grocery store, just go to good ranchers.com. Use the promo code. Glenn. Good Ranchers.com promo code Glenn. All right, Jason, I know you're here to talk about, you know, UFOs and other crazy stuff. But I want to continue this conversation.
Starting point is 00:48:07 And you did the research for a show that we did on the FDA. Crazy. Crazy. It's crazy. And I think this is the kind of stuff that I want RFK to dismantle. I want him to dismantle the money going back and forth from the drug companies, the revolving door, you know, then Bush, God, why would I think of him? Trump is doing this with big tech too. You work for the government.
Starting point is 00:48:36 You are not going to work for big tech for 10 years. Good. Same thing should be true with pharmaceutical companies and big food. And here's why. Fruit Loops comes to the FDA and they say, we want to make a new product called Fruit Loops. And we want to make some of them yellow. So we need, what is it, yellow number five?
Starting point is 00:48:55 One of those numbers. It sounds like concentration camp chemical, really, whatever it is. So yellow number five. Delicious concentration camp chemicals. So the FDA says, okay, well, you have to prove that yellow number five is good, is okay to put in. They don't take a percentage of how many people have we said yellow number five is okay for. So if it's in everybody's food, that changes all the calculations. but forget about that.
Starting point is 00:49:22 We're only talking about fruit loops. So they say, you have to show us the study. So now think of global warming. The food company goes to their group of known and trusted scientists and say, we need a study that shows yellow number five is safe. And they're like, oh, we're going to do that study. It's going to be fair and balanced and totally on the opposite. You seem skeptical.
Starting point is 00:49:53 A little bit. Just like I am with studies that are paid for by the people who are going to benefit from that study. It's not neutral. The FDA then is given that study after it comes back and says yellow number five is fine. They've given that study. And so the FDA says, okay, so the study, you got the scientist to approve. Uh-huh. And it was a really tough fight.
Starting point is 00:50:18 They really dug deep. So, okay, good. We'll approve it. Give us how much money is it? You remember? Oh, it's insane, but it's per batch. Yeah. So it's not just, yeah, we've proven it.
Starting point is 00:50:33 So okay this for fruit loops. It's every time that they have to, they make a new batch of fruit loops and they're pouring yellow number five in, they have to apply for a new license for that batch. Okay? Well, wait, it's either good or it's not. Why? Let me ask you something.
Starting point is 00:50:55 Why do you keep coming to me and giving me all this money? You know what I mean? Maybe someday I can do something for you, you know? Maybe, maybe, hey, I got a job opening. Maybe one of you guys want to come over here and release things with us. That's the problem. And that's what I hope they get rid of. Are you looking for the FDA to do more or less in this process?
Starting point is 00:51:15 I'm looking for a, I'm looking for somebody. that is neutral. Right. But I'm asking specifically the FDA, which I guess in this theory, in this concept here, we're calling FDA neutral, which I don't know that we necessarily agree with, but in theory, like they're the neutral party here, which is, I think, has all sorts of problems. So like my, I think what you're describing is a funding mechanism, right?
Starting point is 00:51:44 FDA is massive. It costs a lot of money. And they're paying for the. FDA to continue to go. Half of the money from the FDA. Half of their budget comes from food and pharmaceutical companies. Right. So like let's say if you stopped that, you'd cut the FDA in half.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Yes. And that's the direction we're looking for. We want less input from the FDA. I want less input from the FDA. And I want an end to the revolving door and the obvious corruption that's coming from money. So when you say the funding. issue, that translated is a crony issue. This is everything that the left used to hate. Everything. It's everything. Like, I'm a libertarian more than anything else. I guess I'm libertarian light.
Starting point is 00:52:31 So when I first heard about this, I got the person that actually did the bulk of this research was one of the biggest hippies on our team. You know who I'm talking about. One of the biggest hippies. And I was like, you know who it is. Dope smoking kef. Not that one. The other. big hippie. But when I was like food, I don't give a crap. If I want to poison my body, I want to poison my body. But then when it got me was when I saw the cronyism angle. And that's why I don't get libertarians on this. This is everything they hate and the left hate used to be about big government. They are getting rich off of an alliance with a lot of these companies. And it appears as though science takes a back back seat. They're sitting in the back of the bus.
Starting point is 00:53:19 The experts, and you can apply this to everything that we hate now about big government, like climate. Yeah. Anything else, the push for blah, blah, blah, blah, blah from the progressive agenda right now where they say, oh, but the experts are telling us this. Well, the experts are employed by the people pushing their poison. Okay. So if you have a problem. If you understand why we have a problem with climate science, just take what you know about climate science. just take what you know about climate science
Starting point is 00:53:49 that this is all being done by the people who want this to be real because they want the money to keep coming in. You're not denying the planet is going to kill us all within five minutes. You're not getting any money if your study comes out and says, no, that's not true. You don't get money. So the scientists sometimes will come back with the results that the people paying for it want. This would be like if Elon Musk wants to sell his EVs.
Starting point is 00:54:26 And he produces this huge report saying that the world is spontaneously going to combust in just two years unless you adhere to his research that his scientist did and trust us. It's great. And by the way, and by the way, The lithium battery study that I just did, fires don't start with lithium batteries. There's not a problem. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So the issue is that, like, you believe that these food companies are proving things that are not, theoretically not helpful or that are harmful. And then they're producing these studies and they're giving them the FDA and the FDA is just approving them.
Starting point is 00:55:04 So would you be, and the FDA is not, you know, the FDA. I'm sketchy on this one. you might be able to help me out on this. The FDA made the food pyramid, the food pyramid that we've all grown up saying this is absolutely right. They designed that through the food companies. Okay. So it should be through science and through knowing what is.
Starting point is 00:55:33 So who's doing these studies if the food companies aren't paying for them? Who's paying for them? The food companies are. The food companies paying for them. I'm saying in New York. vision of the future. I think there could be a tax on these food companies or pharmaceutical companies. So they would still be paying for them.
Starting point is 00:55:49 They'd still be paying for them. But they're not picking the scientist and it's not just the scientist at general foods, say. So you want a larger role for the FDA. It should be on the FDA. Because they're deciding who scientists are. They are the regulator. It should be on them to prove it's safer. Aren't you answering your own questions why libertarians don't like it?
Starting point is 00:56:11 you're arguing for a larger role for the FDA. That's why they don't like it. Larger responsibility. Right. My vision, like, I'm much more on the side of, the FDA has nothing to do with us. Like, I would much rather have the FDA basically shut down and not have any role in this whatsoever. Now, that is a, it's an old school American view. No, I need for that.
Starting point is 00:56:35 But it is, I don't like government control of this stuff and government input. So, but I think that's why the libertarians don't. like it, right? Like what, what the, what they're doing now, if I'm understanding this correctly, is that the companies are basically on their own to come up with science that proves this, and the FDA basically goes along with it. For money. For money. Right. But again, half of their budget, right? The other alternative to fund that half of the budget is taxpayers. That's the other, that's the other alternative. Or taxing. Or taxing the food companies. Okay. Yeah. And the more pharmaceuticals. Right. Okay. You want, you want this service.
Starting point is 00:57:11 way we're paying for it eventually, right? We're paying for it in our food or we're paying for in our taxes. So again, I can understand the problems with this. And this, of course, is true, right? Companies constantly produce science that helps themselves. It happens in global warming and everything else. I just think that, like, my, my, I'm concerned. Here's my concern.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Here's my concern. I don't want the, I'm from a conservative movement that doesn't want. the federal government to make me healthy. I'm from a vision of conservatism that doesn't want the federal government to make me anything. Correct. I am from, this is a line in the sand for me, and I know a lot of people don't care about it, but I am from the conservative movement that yells at Michael Bloomberg for getting rid of large sodas.
Starting point is 00:58:01 That's me. That's me, too. That is 100% me. I've seen Jason too much at Taco Bell to know that he is, I know he's on my side on that part of it. I don't want, I don't want the government. to tell me what I can eat, what I can't eat, you know, but I do, I would like a, some science to say, hey, Stu, not good.
Starting point is 00:58:23 And not from Monsanto and not necessarily from the government that wants to control everything. Yeah. You know, there, there should be a way to get neutral science, but we don't have that now. And, and honestly, I, there's been a lot of neutral science produced about food coloring. A lot of it. And like, and, you know, you can choose whether to like those studies. There has been some that have some indications of negative aspects. There have been many, many that have been like, eh, doesn't seem like there's much here.
Starting point is 00:58:53 But, like, you know, that being said, like, the government comes in and if the government approves a study, is that now gospel? Like, I don't think that's what we want. I think, like, science is always changing. Yeah. I mean, it's not, of course. But our understanding. of it is changing.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Our understanding. Science doesn't change. But like, you know, I am concerned because, look, this is a guy, RFK Jr., who has a very strong opinion on a lot of things. And it is not my disagreement with him is that, well, scientific consensus says X, Y, and Z, therefore he's bad. That's not what my belief is at all. He has in his head his own consensus.
Starting point is 00:59:34 And he is going to attract, I believe, I am concerned about that he is going to apply his mental consensus over a lot of things that I don't necessarily want changed. I want to make the decisions for myself. And as long as we live in a world, what he winds up doing with this role is saying, hey, you can sell raw milk all over the place. I'm not going to be concerned about it at all. Here's the thing. I learned this 50 years ago, 40 years ago.
Starting point is 01:00:04 It's never a problem if you're selling a Volkswagen and the client-binding. and the client buys it and you've paid for a Volkswagen and it runs like a Rolls-Royce. No, it's great. If you buy a Rolls-Royce and it runs like a Volkswagen, there's hell to be paid. Yes, yes. So what he is selling us,
Starting point is 01:00:25 his Rolls-Royce that he is selling us right now, is we're going to cut regulation. We're going to get out and make things your choice and give you the transparency that you've, need to make good choices, but we're not going to force anybody to do anything. Okay. That's the Rolls Royce that he's promising. If he starts to run the Volkswagen way, which is more federal regulation, less choice,
Starting point is 01:00:55 then they'll be held to be paid because you're not, that's not what you're selling us right now. Yeah. Would you agree with that? Yeah. Look, he's going to do some things I'm really going to like. I'm sure of it. I think it's baby steps. Like, I would love to get rid of the FDA as well.
Starting point is 01:01:10 You know me. I would love to just dismantle 95% of the bureaucracy. But let's take baby steps. Let's at least start with, let's not let them collude with big food, big farm and all that, make a ton of money off of our expense. I don't just start there. I actually think, I mean, he has said himself the FDA should be shut down. And he said 90% of it should be shut down immediately.
Starting point is 01:01:33 I'm all for that. I don't need a baby step. I'm ready. Okay. Let's do that. You know, let's just know what we're trying to do here is to make the government accountable to the people and giving the people their own rights back that we stupidly gave to the federal government. All right. Let me talk to you about Patriot Mobile.
Starting point is 01:01:56 Did you know that all Fridays matter? Yeah, it's not just Black Friday. Black Friday is important. But all Fridays matter, don't they? Patriot Mobile believes that all Friday is. matter, and that's why they're running a special right now. You can get a free smartphone just for switching. Patriot

And my new Christmas album that I produced is coming out Black Friday on all platforms. So here's one of the things that I like. Trump is is going to repeal the EV tax credit. Okay. Now that hurts Elon Musk. And I've always had a problem with Elon Musk taking these, you know, kickbacks from the government. He's always taken them. But he has always said,
Starting point is 01:03:52 don't give them. But I'm not going to leave something on the table that you're offering everybody else. That's Donald Trump's issue with the tax code. Look, I have lawyers. You want me to pay more than fine. Change the law. Otherwise, I'm saving every dime legally that I can. Even Ayn Rand talked about this concept. Yes.
Starting point is 01:04:13 And Elon Musk came out yesterday and said, I want that to go away. He said, we should not spend a dime on charging stations. No. Zero. He said, did we do federal funding for gasoline? stations? No. I was reading this amazing analysis on what he did that's just so unorthodox. Like he gave patents away. He said, I'm not patenting these things. I'll give you the technology, gave the technology over to BMW. Why? Because he knew he was making these gigafactories, pumping out
Starting point is 01:04:47 batteries. He was growing the market. This guy's genius. He was growing the market by doing it so unorthodox. Now he's the largest manufacturer ever, and he did it completely different from the way it's been done before. And insane. I think that is, that's using universal law, though. Yeah. Give and you get more back. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:05:05 Mm-hmm. So instead of holding everything so tight, he was like, no, take it. Take it. And because of that, he got more back. Yeah. He's, he's remarkable. Still worry about his endgame of complete and total domination of all mankind. We'll worry about that.
Starting point is 01:05:27 Yeah, let's not talk about that now. That's not a problem. Not a problem at all. We also need to talk about... Speaking of world domination. Yeah. Do we get to the aliens thing? No, we're going to get to that.
Starting point is 01:05:39 I know, I know, I know. We're running out of time. We get to that. Come back in about an hour ago. I'll go back. Because we have Alex Jones on. Yesterday was a bizarre day. So in what can only be called
Starting point is 01:05:54 a bad business deal for the Onion. The Onion supposedly bought at auction a federal auction, Info Wars. Well, as it turns out, did they? Maybe not. Did they really? Got a lot of press about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Just paused it? And it looks like, yeah, because the feds in this open auction did not take the highest bidder. Alex explains where we come back. Glenn. In this time of
Starting point is 01:06:27 inflation, which hopefully will be coming to an end. Thank you very much, Joe Biden.

We have Alex Jones joining us in just a minute. I want to remind you of the First Amendment. The First Amendment says freedom of speech shall not be infringed.
Starting point is 01:08:31 So when you are offering your opinion on something, the government has no right to stop you from saying it, unless it is to cause a riot and it results immediately in a riot. It can't be something that you've planted the seeds and then somebody riots two weeks later. It has to be an immediate riot. That is the Supreme Court's definition of not crying, you know, fire in a crowded movie house. The Eighth Amendment is the one that says no cruel or unusual punishments and no excessive fines shall be imposed.
Starting point is 01:09:15 What happened to Alex Jones, I don't care what you think of him, what he says. I don't care. The First and Eighth Amendment are being violated by our government right now. First Amendment's easy. No excessive fines. He was fined $1.5 billion, and that came down from the what, $2 trillion that they first said that he had to pay. $1.5 billion. The guy in his entire lifetime has made about $50 million.
Starting point is 01:09:47 There's no way he could ever pay. pay that fine off. That's excessive. That's an excessive fine. What happened yesterday was the government was supposed to auction off Info Wars. Now, if it's about, if it's about retribution, what do you do? You try to keep this guy unemployed. But if you're trying to restore and make things whole again, well, you would go to the highest bidder, would you not? Because you're trying to pay that fine, and that's going to make, apparently, these families whole. Well, the government passed up the highest bidder. Why?
Starting point is 01:10:38 Because they said that this would allow Alex Jones, unusual and cruel punishment, from being able to run it or be involved in it, They wanted to give it to the Sandy Hook family. So the Sandy Hook family said, okay, yeah, when he gives us the $1.5 billion, then we'll kick in the extra. That's not the way it. I've been involved in auctions before. Never did they let me bid on something and get it because I said, yeah, but I'm going to get a raise, I'm sure, in the next couple of years. So let me buy it and I'll pay you then.
Starting point is 01:11:12 Doesn't work that way. Alex Jones, the founder of the Alex Jones Network and Info Wars, joins us now. Hello, Alex. Did I get any of this wrong? Glenn, I'm not kissing your buddy. I'm absolutely stunned how you boil down in two minutes. What I've tried to explain, you absolutely 100% whole in one nailed it, but I've got major breaking news. I'm getting chills right now. And I'm going to tell people, first off, the FBI testified in the show trial in Connecticut two years ago on TV. I didn't know this until then. They hit in plain view that their chief counsel in Connecticut created.
Starting point is 01:11:49 the suits, organized the people, they got the PR firms, they hyped up and exaggerated what I did, for two years, used my name to raise money for their anti-gun, anti-First Amendment groups, and then sued me, then found me in default, said I was guilty that had show trials literally produced by HBO. Now, moving on from that, the federal judge Lopez, just two months ago, very famously, when the last CRO and U.S. trustee appointed by the Justice, Department and the judge agreed to it because they wanted to come into the case because it's so publicized the Justice Department can do that they have a whole office of bankruptcy they then tried to close the doors in late May without a court order we did we got a hearing in two weeks I refuse
Starting point is 01:12:34 let and close the doors I said I'd call the police when they came and told me get out of the building and then the judge fired the federal trustee and the CRO but appointed a new one that was next to the rotation now the new one comes in and says, okay, well, Alex Jones is in bankruptcy too. We're going to move to sell it at auction. The judge says yes, but then they come out a few months ago, and it was all over the news and said, and the trustee said,
Starting point is 01:13:02 I'm going to sell the name Alex Jones Show, and I'm going to sell the name Real Alex Jones on X. Elon Musk lawyers got involved. They were there by the way. It gets worse. But here's the new news. The judge a month ago in a hearing said, no, you must have new hearings on when you're going to have an auction, and we have to have
Starting point is 01:13:22 hearings on this, so they withdrew their claim on my name. Chris Murray, the new trustee, and this is all in the news in the transcripts are public from the hearing yesterday. He, without the judge's authorization, the judge said this, went ahead with the auction, but here's the breaking news. The judge said, this even in Bloomberg yesterday, I did not authorize you to have this auction. We were supposed to have hearings because you were making claims that violate the 13th Amendment against slavery. It's not just the eighth and the first they're violating, as you just said. And then Chris Murray is in Bloomberg and in the filing saying the 13th Amendment does not apply to Alex Jones, close quote, in a filing. So all of
Starting point is 01:13:59 those amendments are attempting to be destroyed. Then I waited yesterday until I said this to all my lawyers, some of them are the top bankruptcy people, said I'm authorized to say this literally 30 minutes ago. The filings will be filed within one hour. Now get ready for this. Not only did they have this fake auction, the judge said it was fake, they took $1.7 million cash, as you just said, pledge the rest in future money they get from me. When the judge's order was, it's a cash auction. And now basically, this is what the judge said, this was a private secret sale disguised as an auction. Yep. They then ignored the highest bid that was way, way, way, way, way, way larger.
Starting point is 01:14:50 And then the judge then excoriated them and said, the judge then excoriated them and said, we are now going to have a full evidentiary hearing sometime next week. And my lawyers are filing. They say it's cut and dry. They're not bomb throwers. cut and dry in their own admissions, and Murray's own admissions on the stand, that they had bid collusion
Starting point is 01:15:17 because none of the bidders are supposed to talk to each other. You have to disclose if there's another group. You have to disclose if you're going to change the auction, and then now claim that it's not cash. It's a credit auction, but they didn't even do that. And here's the key. Murray put out two months ago for the auction that November 8th was the last day to have your first initial bid in,
Starting point is 01:15:39 and then it would be online with a big auction company, and people could bid up. That's the definition of an auction is sold to the highest bidder in Webster's Dictionary. So then they have this private sale disguises an auction. Then they announced on Monday the 11th at 2 p.m., via email to my lawyers and everybody, we're disregarding the old auction filings and the money that was put down and the non-disclosures that were signed and the regular federal contracts that follow law, we're now going to have sealed bids in on Wednesday, November 13th,
Starting point is 01:16:09 at 10 a.m. There will be no further bids above that, which is not an auction. And then we will choose, including we reserve the right, to take a lesser bid. So it was already fixed then. And then that went forward. So this is 100%, 100% cut and dry illegal. Sorry. So here's the thing, Alex.
Starting point is 01:16:29 You know, a settlement against somebody is to make the people that are suing whole. there is a difference between restoration and retribution. If the people want that we're not going after retribution, but restoration, then that fine that you got, then you had to pay the families was to restore them. They can't suddenly say, well, we'll get this money from Alex. while we take away his business and even his name, you're not going to get any money from Alex.
Starting point is 01:17:13 And the reason why you would have an auction when somebody goes bankrupt is to make the other people whole. This is clearly about retribution. And Glenn, you're absolutely right. They said on the courthouse steps in both rig cases, and they said in their filings, and they said in the Onion announcement, this is about punishing him and taking him off the air.
Starting point is 01:17:36 And the Democrat lawyer that runs all this, absolutely. And the head Democrat lawyer out of Connecticut that runs all this said on ABC News last night, Alex Jones's punishment has just begun. Listen, they turned down $70 million from me that I agreed to pay out over a period of years that I wasn't even sure I could make more money than, as you said, rightfully than I've ever made.
Starting point is 01:17:58 And so they admit this. They're not even denying it. And what's crazy is they're so arrogant. that when the judge said do an auction, months ago, they acted like they were going to do an auction up to two days before, less than 48 hours before on Monday afternoon, they throw out the real auction, pretend they have an auction, and this is cut and dry,
Starting point is 01:18:18 and then they admit that they did all of this. And again, the judge's order said a cash auction. This wasn't even a credit auction, as you said, promising my future earnings for them to be able to buy my company, It is so ridiculously fraudulent on his face that my lawyers are speechless right now that they would try this. But again, they admit that the Justice Department is heavily involved in directing all of this. Just like they got caught directing all the lawfare against Trump, and they admit on MSNBC and CNN, this model being used against me if they're successful will then be used. and they've literally said the names in previous shows years ago,
Starting point is 01:19:02 Tucker Carlson and Glenn Beck. So I don't know if you've seen those newscasts. I can send them to you. You have sent them to me. I'd like to see that. Look, Alex, Trump one. We are cleaning out the DOJ. I don't want to get involved in lawsuits because I'm not a judge.
Starting point is 01:19:24 I'm not an attorney and I'm not a jury. but I will insert myself when you see clear injustice against the Constitution. And I can quote the eighth and the first. I hadn't thought of the 13th, but you say your attorney quoted that one. It is clear that this is cruel and unusual punishment. It is also retribution and an excessive fine. And it's all based on freedom of speech. This is not going to stand, Alex.
Starting point is 01:19:57 And I hope that when the DOJ is cleaned up, this comes up and they prosecute anyone who did anything illegal in this case. I totally agree. And Glenn, if you have time, just one last key point. It gets worse. So they have the secret fake auction Wednesday at 1030. They say, we'll tell you sometime tomorrow morning. I figure something's going on. So I get to the office right at 7.30 when the call and the emails come through to my lawyers
Starting point is 01:20:35 that you didn't get your IP, you didn't get your equipment, you didn't get everything, nothing. And then Chris Murray, the U.S. trustee, shows up at 8 a.m., right as I go on one of my other hosts has a live shows. So I took it over at 8 a.m. And I'm there, and he's ordering my crew saying, I'm a federal agent because he has, when he does his little hearings he has the Justice Department still behind him. He says, you were ordered to turn this off, or I'm going to have you violating the stay and you're going to get in trouble with the court. So he basically intimidated my IT people to at 1030 in the morning, pull the plug on live broadcast when it wasn't a real auction. The judge hadn't authorized an auction yet. He had just authorized
Starting point is 01:21:20 to have one in the future. And the judge said all this in court, they literally hijacked the building, turned the power off, turned the satellite off to the radio and TV stations. Luckily, we built a backup studio, which we're calling the Alex Jones Network. People can follow that on X at AJN Live
Starting point is 01:21:36 or real Alex Jones. And luckily we got in contact with most of our radio stations and only five minutes late got our satellite link that was already up and ready to them. But this is literally,
Starting point is 01:21:50 I'm not exaggerating any of this. This is all going to be filed in federal court today. Anybody listening that says This doesn't sound real. I understand. It's in Bloomberg. It's everywhere. If you read deep for the articles that the judge, quote, you know, has serious questions about transparency, that he said the sale didn't go through. And here they are everywhere saying the onion bought it and all this. And it's not even true. So imagine. And all that people I've talked to said, there's no way the judge
Starting point is 01:22:14 doesn't at least order a new real auction. Yeah. But there's probably going to be more. The law says that the real big bidder by law, it will be forfeited to them. and they wouldn't have to face the jeopardy of another option. So there's a very good chance with these emergency injunctions today that I will be back in control of the Info Wars, building and studios in systems, perhaps by this afternoon, but 99% chance by the full evidentiary hearing next week. Glenn, this is epic, desperateness and vigilanteism by the desperate left.

Starting point is 01:24:48 Is there something seriously, mentally wrong with Jake Paul? Is it tonight he's fighting Mike Tyson? I'm fascinated by this. And he's like, I'm going to knock him out. I don't think so. He's 58, though, right? We're 60 years old, right? It's Mike Tyson.
Starting point is 01:25:09 I know. But it's a 26-year-old. We were going to say basketball, a 60-year-old. Michael Jordan versus, you know, I don't know, probably Jordan would still with that. Yeah, okay. So let me talk to you a little bit about Jace Medical. Trump is coming back into office and, you know, I think everybody right now is going, you know, this is going to be great.
Starting point is 01:25:28 Well, it could be. It could be a nightmare too. The left is not just going to roll over. And neither is the world. I think we're seeing good signs from the world. But when Trump starts to go after China and saying, yeah, you know what? A hundred percent tariff on you. They might say, hey, you know, we make 80% of all of your name, your non-named drugs.
Starting point is 01:25:53 Oh, okay. You just don't know what kind of disruption could come your way. And you know what? You're going on vacation. You don't want to spend looking for a doctor because one of the kids get something. Call up your doctor and say, hey, does this sound like something I can treat with antibiotics? You have a Jace case at Jace.com. It has the five big.
Starting point is 01:26:14 and most needed antibiotics in it. You just take it with you on vacation. It's great. They also have a compounded version of Ivermectin for only $30 as an ad on. Go to jace.com. Jace.com promo code Beck. Let me give you some facts. Democrats are just as susceptible to conspiracy theories in quack science as they claim Republicans are.
Starting point is 01:27:36 Democrats have not accepted the results of a presidential loss in decades. They are the original election deniers. Democrats believe shadowy foreigners control our elections. Democrats have convinced themselves that books are being banned. They're not. And one state even banned the word gay. They didn't. Democrats no longer just disagree with conservatives about issues,
Starting point is 01:28:00 but rather they treat every Republican victory as a grievous threat to democracy. Democrats rely on apocalypticism. Is that a word? Working themselves and their voters into frenzies. over the claims, like the world's not going to, you know, end in 10 years. It might end in five years. We've got to get this done right now. Democrats believe that social conservatives are plotting a theocracy.
Starting point is 01:28:31 Democrats believe conspiracies about our history, including that the Constitution is a document for white supremacists. The left keeps falling for the racial hoaxes. And polling shows Democrats are more, likely to be Holocaust deniers and 9-11 truthers. This is the Rise of Blue and on. Blue and on. It's the name of a new book, Rise of Blue and On by good friend of the program,
Starting point is 01:28:58 David Harsani. He joins me in 60 seconds. Here's an idea for you. Next time you load everything up and you go out to the gun range, don't load any ammunition into your gun. Just point the barrel at your target and say, bang, really loudly, and then guess how close it might have gotten to the bullseye. Make sure you're being honest, though.
Starting point is 01:29:16 You don't want to cheat on something like that. That is one solution to the problem of expensive ammo, but there's probably a better solution, and that is Mantis X. This is a high-tech, easy-to-use system used widely by the military, and it helps you improve your shooting quickly. You just attach it to your firearm and connect it with an app on your smartphone or your tablet via Bluetooth. Then whether you're finding actual rounds or even dry fire practicing,
Starting point is 01:29:41 it'll give you instant feedback on what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong and how to correct your technique. 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes just using Mantis X. Be a responsible gun owner and increase your competence and just as importantly, your confidence with Mantis X. Get your Mantis X right now at mantisX.com. MantisX.com. Good friend David Harsani. How are you, David? I'm doing well. Thank you. Thanks for having me.
Starting point is 01:30:11 Yeah. So right now, can we play? play this audio that's coming out of Pennsylvania, where the Democrats are now admitting that they are counting illegal votes. Listen to this. We reject all three categories of these ballots. Your
Starting point is 01:30:28 motion is to reject or dismiss the challenges in this category in front of you? Correct. Yep. Not going to second that. Mostly because I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country. And people violate laws any time they
Starting point is 01:30:44 want. So for me, if I violate this law, it's because I want a court to pay attention to it. David, that's a little astounding. Is it just us? No. It is funny that these were the people who were crying about the end of democracy and framing Trump as a Nazi. But the truth always was that they were the ones who wanted to pack the court. They were the ones who want to get rid of the electoral college. They're the ones who use executive power to do whatever they want. I mean, that's always been the case. So you, I mean, you came up with some amazing facts that you lay out in your book that they are more susceptible, this is the one that blows my mind, more susceptible, more likely to be Holocaust deniers and 9-11 truthers than the Republicans are. I mean, we have our own
Starting point is 01:31:39 probably just had Alex Jones on. We have our own, you know, problems on the right where there's conspiracy theories and everything else. But this, what's happening now with the side of the blue is it's mainstream. It's Rachel Maddow, right? Yeah, no, that's exactly right. So I lay out the history in my book. This isn't just started yesterday.
Starting point is 01:32:02 But the difference between Alex Jones and Rachel Maddow and, say, the Russia collusion thing, is that the left will take a conspiracy theory. They launder it through the media. They polish it up with high production values. They calibrate it to be plausible. Then they bring in, you know, people we used to trust who are experts, you know, and former intelligence service officers, things like that, who will spread the conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 01:32:27 It's very difficult to debunk something like that, and people are more prone to believe it. I forget the exact number, but it was maybe 60% almost of Democrats believe that Russians had actually changed. change the vote tallies. Not that they had sent some Facebook ads, that they had changed boat tallies. I mean...
Starting point is 01:32:44 What was the percentage of that? I'm like 58%. Something very high. What? Democrats, yeah. There's absolutely no evidence of that. Yeah, they don't need evidence as we've seen. So how do you break this?
Starting point is 01:33:04 It's difficult because first, everyone and it's already happening will stop trusting institutions that tell them these things once they are debunked, then there's no one to trust. And that's not a good thing because, you know, yes, the media is terrible and all that, but you do need someone to watch over both parties. And you want them to do that in a real way. It used to be biased, but now it's just complete activism so you can't trust them. So that has to break down and I guess it has to be rebuilt, but I don't think that happens very quickly because the entire culture of journalism, the entire culture in these giant agencies is all, you know, wrong. It's demented. So is there any, is there any hope
Starting point is 01:33:41 among a libertarian like yourself that, um, that the country seems to be, seems to be on track to just throw them all out and shut down as much of this government as possible. Does that give you hope? Yeah. I think I am, yes, the hope I have and in the, because of this election is that people stop listening to those agencies. People stop listening to the media. They didn't believe that Trump was Hitler. You see that in that every minority vote basically move towards Trump. I don't view this election really as a Republican win as much as I do just a Normie win. I think Trump is just kind of, you know, here's another thing. Everyone always on the left that talks about Trump like he's this extremist, his policy positions are incredibly moderate, I think.
Starting point is 01:34:32 I mean, there are things that people like to hear and want, and there's a normalcy to it. Like, you know, I kind of think that the closest person to him is probably Harding, you know, who brought back normalcy after Wilson. So, I don't know. I'm hoping he'll be more like Coolidge, who followed Harding and really got the job done. Yeah. I mean, I think they were both great, but yeah, Coolidge definitely got the job done. David, can you go back to the history of the left of these conspiracy theories? because I remember when there was the birther thing was going on,
Starting point is 01:35:03 and that was all over the place. It was constantly covered. And we would look back at polls of, let's say, the Bush era around 9-11. And Democrats overwhelmingly believed that George Dahlia Bush was involved in 9-11. Like this was not, this is not something that. Like blowing it up. Yeah, right. Like, not just like, oh, I turned my eyes, way right, like blowing it up.
Starting point is 01:35:27 Yeah. I mean, think about the difference. Michael Moore got a standing ovation at the Oscars in whatever year that was, 2006, maybe. For a documentary, there's a completely nut, nut job cranky, crank conspiracy theory movie, right? Like, it was just nuts. It was one of the biggest document, you know, it earned more money than almost any documentary. I think at the time it was the biggest. It was.
Starting point is 01:35:48 And the Bertha thing, everyone rejected that. McCain rejected that publicly. I don't know if you guys remember there was like some kind of town hall, and he rejected that. And I don't think any person of, you know, who was elected made a big deal. I think of Donald Trump, I guess. But the thing is, it's fine to ask questions about anything, an election, I think, at least, about his birth certificate. There's nothing wrong with that. I think that once, though, the things are debunked and you still believe them, that's the problem.
Starting point is 01:36:18 And Republicans don't do that as much as Democrats. If you ask anyone who, you know, a Democrat who was around, who won the 2000 election, and they'll tell you it was stolen. And there have been independent recounts of Florida that showed that George Bush actually got more votes than were counted originally. But none of that will ever stop them from saying it. And people forget, 2004, they did the same thing. Every major Democrat said that the machines in Ohio had cheated somehow. And, you know, they never pay a price for it.
Starting point is 01:36:47 I just watched the video, I don't know, about a month or two ago, of all the House members that stood up and wanted to cancel the, electoral college, the vote and not seat the electors, saying that this was this was a false count. And they needed to start all over again. I don't know if that was in the December after that election or January 6th. But everything they claimed Donald Trump was doing, they did. And I bet they'll do it again. A lot of projection.
Starting point is 01:37:21 Absolutely. With the election denialism, I tell you the most, another one that is just really pernicious and actually just evil in a way. And it's not just, my book, Shanax, it's not just about conspiracy theories, it's just about a paranoid style of politics, is the idea that black people can't vote, the suppression of the vote. It's easier to vote today than it ever has been in any place ever in the world. And yet, many black people, over 60% think that they're being stopped from voting.
Starting point is 01:37:49 So pretty. Or they think that white policemen are hunting them in the streets. None of this is true. Now, I'm not saying they aren't racist. Of course they're a racist. But the idea that there's a systemic, you know, effort by white people just because of the color of their skin to suppress black people. That's an evil thing to convince people of. They don't think they have agency.
Starting point is 01:38:07 And, you know, and that happens because of paranoia, I think. Where do you think, instead of saying where did this really begin? What is it that sets us apart Republicans or, you know, right and left, that makes them, inherently easier to fall into these conspiracy theories? In a way, weirdly, I think it's kind of laziness. So during the Obama
Starting point is 01:38:37 years, if you said anything critical, they would just call you a racist. It's a way not to debate. So now, if I say, whatever I say, people will accuse me of being bought by someone. I'm being paid by, you know, Elon Musk or I'm a Russian dupe or, you know, so I think that people get lazy and then, you know, it evolved into you're a Nazi or, you know, your Hitler. And I'm not sure there's any place to go after Hitler. He's probably the worst.
Starting point is 01:39:05 But they've been calling people Hitler literally since Eisenhower, who defeated Hitler. But it wasn't as mainstream. People would make comments and it would be frowned upon. But let's be honest, the whole, so I was watching, because of Shadenfroid, I was watching MSNBC as the election went to Trump. And it wasn't like they started saying, maybe we shouldn't have been calling everyone Hitler. They were saying, how could all these people vote for Hitler? You know what I mean? They're not convinced.
Starting point is 01:39:37 So the incentives are all wrong there. I know that's not what your book is about with the media per se and what's going to come. But what do you think happens to the mainstream media? I mean, I think they were the biggest, besides Kamala, they were the biggest loser this election. They have, it is clear that no matter how much they collude, how much money they spend, no matter how they all walk in lockstep from movies to, you know, to shows in arenas to the TV, it doesn't matter. People are done.
Starting point is 01:40:14 What happens to them? Can they ever get that credibility back? Yeah, sure they can. But again, like I just said, I don't think the incentives are right yet. it's not like, it's not a job. They're out of job. The networks are going away. What kind of incentive do they need? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:40:31 But think about how the Washington Post just wouldn't endorse and the whole place had a meltdown. So there's a cultural problem. It's not like those people are just going to disappear. It starts in journalism school. You know, it's the editorial assistant who gets to decide to fire the New York Times editorial page guy for publishing a Tom Cotton op. I don't, I don't, I don't see that changing overnight. And, but, you know, maybe in the long run, it can. You know, we spend a lot of money on politics.
Starting point is 01:41:00 I wish some of these billionaires spent more money on, you know, journalistic efforts on the right. You know. You want to be really, like, George Sparrow spends a lot on media. Sure does. Yeah, he does. Thank you so much, David. I appreciate it. The name of the book is The Rise of Blue and On.
Starting point is 01:41:19 David is the senior editor of the Federalist. Try to keep him at the blaze forever. I would have locked him in one of those cages down on the border if we could. David Arsani, a book Well Worth the Time, The Rise of Bluenon. Back in just a second. So there are some people out there who just don't believe, you know, in half measures, like at all.

But I thought I'd ask you just the same. I don't know what I'm doing on New Year's Eve yet. It's my wife. It's our 25th wedding anniversary this year. 25 years, Stu.
Starting point is 01:43:26 That's incredible. That's incredible that woman has put up with me for this long. I was there. I tried to talk her out of it that day. She's dead inside now. She just makes the motions like, whatever. but 25 years and I love her more today than I ever have. That's incredible.
Starting point is 01:43:43 Yeah. You guys, Is there a big plan? You guys got a big... We talked about it yesterday. And I'm not, I'm not sure. I'm not sure what we're going to do. It's her taking a jet to another country and ever seeing you again?
Starting point is 01:43:54 It's probably it. Yeah, it's probably it. She's been draining the bank accounts, I'm sure, for years. Oh, no, wait. This has been me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:02 Yeah. Buying all, no expending habits. That's definitely you. Yeah. By the way, I was a lot of people were saying, hey, like the Jake Paul, Mike Tyson fight not going to be worth paying for. It's going to be a waste of money.
Starting point is 01:44:13 It's actually just part of your Netflix subscription if you have one. It's just part of it. I got to tell you. I got to tell you. I would love, because it's being fought here in Dallas. Yeah. I would love to go.
Starting point is 01:44:24 I looked at tickets. They're pretty expensive. Oh, really? Yeah. I mean, I just, I didn't see the value. Yeah. So I'm not sure it's going to be good. I feel like there's a probably a 50% chance.
Starting point is 01:44:34 It's just they're just hugging each other and it's really boring. That's really possible. See, you know, the thing about getting into a ring with Mike Tyson, I know he's 60, but getting into a ring with Mike Tyson, getting hit by him if he just happens to have one left in him could kill you. Yeah. You know? Yep. And.
Starting point is 01:44:53 But I mean, you watch, you watch like amazing athletes as they get into their mid to late 30s and you see the difference and they fade so quickly. Why is Jake Paul interested in beating up on an old man? Isn't this kind of like the Olympics where, oh, no, I'm definitely a woman. But there's nothing exciting about that. No, well, I'm definitely not there. That was horrible. I think the answer to this is lots and lots of money. I mean, like, you know, he's an influencer, right?
Starting point is 01:45:25 Like, he's kind of a boxer, but also he likes attention and money and knows how to get it. Like, he's really, you know, good at it. We're political influencers. I mean, would it be worth it to go, we're going to debate Walter Mondale? I'm not sure a guy who actually debated Elliot Spitzer. I'm not sure. I had to do that. You did that.
Starting point is 01:45:45 It was a giant stunt. I know. I had to do that. I was contractually obligated. You were. That's true. Yes. But, I mean, you know, like it was something that kind of generated a lot of excitement.
Starting point is 01:45:56 Some excitement. I like it. I just have to tell you. I was wearing a 1791 T-1 T-shirt. 1791. kind of an important year for America. Yeah, I've heard of it. And Spitzer said right before we went on, he said,
Starting point is 01:46:08 what's significant about the year 1791? And I went, ha, ha. Oh, dear God, you're serious. But I mean, there's, we see that stuff happen a lot. I think what I'm fascinated about is I have absolutely no idea where this goes. Like, you could totally convince me Tyson a much better boxer, technically, as far as skill goes.
Starting point is 01:46:33 even he's going to remember what he had back in the day, would just destroy a 26-year-old influencer who kind of boxes. On the other hand, you could totally convince me a 26-year-old at the peak of his, you know, physical abilities is going to absolutely, he might literally murder a 60-year-old trying to fight him. But there is the same, I think, chance that Tyson murder. I mean, it could be murder either way.
Starting point is 01:46:58 I don't know. Join us in the ring for murder night. And then I also think, there could be this chance they go in there and kind of just bump into each other for 12 minutes and it's over and it's like God that was terrible like I think that's totally a possible outcome too I have no idea where this goes
Starting point is 01:47:13 which kind of makes it like one of the most interesting sporting events I've seen in a long time actually it's I'm getting a little tired of that because everything is like that I like the predictability in real in real life and unpredictability in sports Christmas you know Christmas is coming we could all be alive
Starting point is 01:47:29 or we can all be vaporized we don't know kind of makes it interesting Doesn't it? What do you want to feel really on the edge? Did you know Joe Biden is still president in the United States right now? Right now! Isn't that crazy? Well, I feel better because his vice president isn't talking to him.
Starting point is 01:47:45 Oh, good. So the one who's equally as incompetent. There's no guardrails here. We're 90 miles an hour on the top of a cliff, a little teeny dirt road. Right. Keep putting a pedal to the metal. Okay, the things that matter to you, family matter. life of integrity matters to you.
Starting point is 01:48:09 It matters to me. God matters to you. America, I think matters to you. It does me. And I think that's why we have so much in common. American giant was created 13 years ago to save a clothing factory in North Carolina. The guy just wanted to save jobs. Okay.
Starting point is 01:48:26 Save the employee so they could continue to do the work because he knew that if he could do that, he could save the town. American manufacturing matters. And with all that's going on in the world, it matters more than ever. ever. Well, 13 years ago, they brought equipment back that used to be American and they sold it to China years and years ago. It's why we don't make, you know, no offense and champion, but champion used to be when I was growing up or my dad, champion sweatshirts were the best. Well, they don't make them like that anymore. They don't even have the machines anymore. American Giant went out and got those machines back, refurbished them, brought them back to America, trained these people

Starting point is 01:49:22 It's available everywhere, November 29th. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're just talking to, before we get into aliens and what happened on Capitol Hill, just to let you know, nobody shed their skin and showed that they were lizard people, but pretty close. We'll tell you about that here in just a second.
Starting point is 01:50:07 We were just talking about Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. Sorry, I'm so fascinated by this. No, I am too. But Stu, I think, found the answer of why Jake Paul would fight Mike Tyson. Yeah, $40 million. Is there anyone that could beat on me for 12 minutes for $40 million? I try. I can start to go fund me.
Starting point is 01:50:27 I would like that. That would be fun. I'd do it. I'd do it. No, $40 million. And he's actually getting, I think, double the amount of Mike Tyson, which is incredible that Tyson is less of a draw than Jake Paul. The thing about Mike Tyson is just how frightening that guy was.
Starting point is 01:50:44 I mean, one swing really in his old power, it could kill you. Yeah. No, I know. And I think it's incredible. It shows God's sense of humor. He's like, I'm going to make this dude really, really powerful. But then I make a tack like men. And I just want to make it.
Starting point is 01:51:00 can talk like this. Wouldn't that be funny? Let's make him. God does that a lot. He did that with David Beckham, one of the best soccer players of all time. It's like, let's have him be an awesome soccer player, but sound like Hermit the Frog. Hang on, we have clips here of Mike Tyson.
Starting point is 01:51:17 Well, in your return to the ring for this fight, you are setting a monumental opportunity for kids my age to see the legend, Mike Tyson, in the ring for the first time. So after such a successful career, what type of legacy would you like to leave behind when it's all said and done.
Starting point is 01:51:32 Well, I don't know. I don't believe in the word legacy. I think that's another word for ego. Legacy doesn't mean nothing. That's just some word everybody grabbed on to. Someone said that word, and everyone grabbed on the words, so now it's used every five seconds. It means absolutely nothing to me.
Starting point is 01:51:47 I'm just passing through. I'm going to die, and it's going to be over. Who cares about a legacy after that? What a big ego song. I'm going to die. I want people to think that I'm this. I'm great. No, we're nothing.
Starting point is 01:51:59 We're dead. We're done. Just absolutely nothing. 14-year-old girl. A legacy is nothing. So I actually happen to agree with him. I do too. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:09 I mean, in some ways. Not that, you know, we're nothing, because I have obviously faith reasons to believe something different. But nobody's going to remember any of us. Yeah. I mean, I said this in an interview recently, and they were like, no, no, no. And I'm like, I'm not trying to be humble. I'm telling you, five years after my death, no one will remember.
Starting point is 01:52:28 That's why a lot. No one. Yeah, it's true. It's why you should always remember. when you're like having a bad day and getting attacked online, how little it means. It just means nothing. It means absolutely nothing. Hey, one more thing about this, too, I find it to be fascinating.
Starting point is 01:52:40 This is a 14-year-old girl set up in an interview with Mike Tyson. With every other person I think I've ever known in my entire life that has this story, his legacy would be rapist. Right. Okay? When you are convicted of rape, generally your legacy is rapist. And he's got 14-year-old girls being probably, hey, go talk to that rapist over there. I just want to ask you, Mr. Polensky, what do you think your legacy is going to be?
Starting point is 01:53:12 Probably raping kids like you. All right. So, Jason is here. I asked him yesterday. I said, would somebody just watch the testimony on Capitol Hill? Are they announcing the aliens have arrived yet? What is this? Give me just the high-level stuff that was important.
Starting point is 01:53:30 I wrote three pages of notes where I was just like, I cannot believe this is in a congressional hearing. I just cannot believe this is in a congressional hearing. Because it was such a joke or because they were verifying things? Well, verifying? Yeah, okay. See, this is the same. Well, so they have very credible whistleblowers and people that you've spoken to them. People like Lou Al-Sanado, he was also there.
Starting point is 01:53:57 But he's the same guy. It's the same testimony. I've heard it. So what's new? Pussycat. Whoa. I demand new knowledge about aliens. I do.
Starting point is 01:54:09 I got bored with your alien stuff. I don't know if new is the correct word, but more of like, it seems like more verification and more detail. Like what? So for one, everything I'm about to tell you is and everything they said, there was another kind of like drop from one of these whistleblowers that said, you know, we always wonder, doesn't every president should know about this, right? No, he doesn't.
Starting point is 01:54:32 So apparently that's by design. And apparently, according to one document that was released a couple days ago, President Obama found out about these disclosures like through Lou Elson in the New York Times after the fact and was like, wait, what did you guys withhold for me? And he actually went to some of these people and said, can I get read in on all this stuff you intentionally let me out on? They did not do it. So Obama apparently did not get this briefing. So I really have a problem with this. The president is our elected commander-in-chief.
Starting point is 01:55:05 And this goes to the dark web, honestly. I'm not dark-web, the deep state. That an elected official should be able to say to all those unelected, no, excuse me, you're going to read me in on this. Right. And there's lots of things that the president does. doesn't know. That's wrong. Yeah. And not only just the elected, you know, officials and the executive, but, you know, Congress.
Starting point is 01:55:32 They're the oversight. Right. That should be no. So apparently from what they described is this has been designed intentionally to go around that, to keep those people in the dark. And by the way, they did say that Trump was given this briefing and that he was so, quote, disturbed by what they said that he intentionally said, let's not move on this. Man, I wish that guy drank because I would be at Marlago tonight just pumping him up with joy juice going, hey, so what did you learn about the aliens? So they talked about what's called the legacy program and how this is, they go into how they've gotten around oversight. And they talk about they're primarily people within the executive branch. And they have created a classification system, a special access program, how they classify top secret information. that immediately detects every time our military or whoever, CIA, anyone, has got footage or anything at all on a UFO.
Starting point is 01:56:32 It detects it, pulls it out of the regular system, and then disseminates it amongst themselves so that nobody else sees it. And it's very interesting because that's how, and they said this has been going on for decades. So this is how they get around none of this stuff getting out. So there's kind of a good old boy group that's got all this information. I don't agree with this. This is the problem.
Starting point is 01:56:52 This is deep state. Yeah. And they have to answer to elected officials. There has to be, we are a country of and for the people. So the people we elect have oversight and they should be read in. I mean, I understand top secret, et cetera, et cetera. But elected officials should be read into everything. I completely agree.
Starting point is 01:57:17 And the detail that they go into, I mean, I've never heard. this be disclosed before. Like they talk about specific, uh, intelligence systems that are being used to monitor all this stuff. And they go into multiple different encounters where they're like, oh, it was observed with this infrared Fleer system here or this signals intelligence here. And this is, these videos exist within that select group. And they, yeah, like I said, they, they go very into very specific detail on what actually happened during those encounters. Now, they said that now, now that there's been a few disclosures, Lou Elsinato and some others, they've created a new program. And it's called the Immaculate Constellation Program. It's a special
Starting point is 01:58:01 access program that's taking all this information. But they have a very specific concern or worry. Okay, hang on just a second. Why would you call it, obviously, after the Immaculate Conception? Why would you call it the Immaculate Constellation? What is the, have you thought of this? Not much. Why, that will unlock a lot. If you can figure out why they named it that, because that's the immaculate conception.
Starting point is 01:58:33 This is the immaculate constellation. I can't tie that together just off the top of my head. Somebody, tweet it to me if you can think of why they would call it that. Because you'll understand their motives if we can understand that name. Well, there's clearly a lot going on that we do not know about and that they know about. And Michael Schellenberger was at this hearing. Which was shocking to me. That added a lot of credibility.
Starting point is 01:58:59 Oh, big time. Yeah. You had all the other whistleblowers and people that have come out, Pentagon officials, all that. And they were asked very bluntly, like, what is this? So what is the Immaculate Constellation Program? So it's that special access program that's looking at all these cases. But they are very, very, very. And they made this very clear that they're worried about something very, very specific.
Starting point is 01:59:17 And this also makes me think they have kind of a, I don't know, some humor going on here. Because they're looking at something called alien reproductive vehicles. And they constantly talk about RVs. And to me, I immediately thought of like Bill Pullman in his RV, you know, in space balls. Like, I don't know why you would call it that. Right. But reproductive vehicles are vehicles of alien or. origin that other countries, apparently including us, have retrofitted and recreated off of both
Starting point is 01:59:54 seeing some of these alien craft and retrieving and recovering this craft. And they go into detail, Glenn, and they release this in the hearing of very specific cases where they said, we saw an alien reproductive vehicle operated by, and then again, redacted country. But like China or something. probably who it is. And they said, this is, this is the,
Starting point is 02:00:19 you know, the Chinese, when they're stealing the technology from aliens that don't exist, they are good. They got that spy thing down. This is the,
Starting point is 02:00:27 this was the biggest kind of crazy, holy crap moment when they started talking about that. Because they, when the detail includes, like, they're like,
Starting point is 02:00:34 oh yeah, we were in this water, in these waters, their military ships are all out seeing if they could detect this thing. They clearly knew it was there. They did their exercise.
Starting point is 02:00:45 And then the alien reproductive vehicle craft went off in a certain direction and disappeared. I mean, so what they're describing here with this Immaculate Constellation is a global arms race to identify alien craft and then either retrieve it, which they also mentioned multiple other countries have tried to go after them and intercept them, and then retrieve them and then create technology based off of that. That's insane. They're saying it's happening right now.
Starting point is 02:01:17 What are we saying earlier this hour or last hour that, you know, I don't know if that's going to happen. That's kind of far out there. It's not. As I said last hour, no, nothing is anymore. Every day there's a new crazier thing than the previous day. Every day you wake up is the craziest day you've ever lived. We are on the verge of massive change. I think people are starting to understand this.
Starting point is 02:01:43 With quantum computing, AI, just those things, alone are going to change all you will not recognize anything anything by 2030 35 our lives are going to be completely different by that time yeah I mean money how does that even work with quantum computing I don't even know like how is how is there a single secret how do you how do you have money in banks no password there's nothing no there's nothing all right um thank you jason for a very bizarre segment. I'll talk to you again. All right, let me tell you about relief factor.
Starting point is 02:02:20 No matter what the reason for your pain, no matter whether it's infrequent or all the time or someplace in between, I think we can both agree that the main thing you want is for pain to go away. I tried to get my pain to go away in my hands and my arms and everything else for a long time. You were on my protective detail at the time. I mean, remember how nasty it was? I tried everything, could not get it to go away. Well, Tanya made me try relief factor years ago.
Starting point is 02:02:55 100% drug-free developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain. No matter what kind of pain you're in, it helps your body fight it. I don't know why this cracked the code on me, but it stopped it. It broke its back. Stop masking your pain and start fighting back naturally. Give relief factor a try. Right now, their three-week quick start is only 1995. less than a dollar a day.
Starting point is 02:03:17 So visit Relieffactor.com or call 800 the number four relief. That's 800 the number four relief. Get even more, Glenn. Subscribe to the Glenn Beck podcast, anywhere podcasts are found. This is the Glenn Beck program. Are we 14 days away from Black Friday? Yeah, two weeks from today. Two weeks from yesterday is Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 02:04:13 Yeah. Yeah. This is crazy. Coming out in two weeks. Black Friday. Are you sure about that? How sure are you of that? Let's just say it.
Starting point is 02:04:20 I was just say it. I always speak things into existence. So coming out, December 18th is this. Get ready. If everybody does what they say they were going to do. No, no, no, listen. We added extra time to what everybody said it would take. It could come out earlier than that.
Starting point is 02:04:40 But we're counting on Black Friday. The new Christmas album, you're just going to love it. Yeah, it's been kind of a weird show today. If I would have said to you a year ago, you know who's going to be the head of HHS, RFK Jr. No, you're right. I would have said no way. Right. And you might have said maybe if Kamala wins.
Starting point is 02:05:08 Yeah. But if I say Trump wins and he makes RFK Jr. Head of HHS. You're a lunatic. It's crazy. Okay. Would have been crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:05:20 I mean, we talk about conspiracy theories. They're not, you make stuff up and it's not as weird as the stuff that's actually happening in today's world. It's very true. Very true. And I think there's, you know, it's going to be an interesting ride because of that. It will be an interesting ride because of that. You know what we're going to do? We always do predictions for the coming year.
Starting point is 02:05:45 Oh, yeah. Let's do them on the air and get people to brainstorm with us on. what sounds insane, but slightly possible. Right, right. You know, probable. Slightly even possible. Okay. Yeah, like they do this in sports talk.
Starting point is 02:06:05 When you get into a season, they'll do like a segment called like bold takes. Yeah. And it's like you had kind of something that could, you're not necessarily saying it's definitely going to happen. But like, I think it's a little more likely than people believe. Yeah, but it's, but if you say that, it's going to be nuts. Because the stuff that we all think it's coming is pretty nuts. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:06:26 Yeah. You know, I mean, the things that we all talk about every day would be like, oh, you know, we could be on the edge of civil war. Yeah, I know. I feel that, too. That's nuts. You know, Glenn, it's going to be really interesting to see how all this plays out. It is. It's going to be fun to see how the American people solve this, isn't it?
Starting point is 02:06:47 It's going to be one for the history books, I'll tell you that. All right, have a safe, safe weekend. God bless. May God save the Republican. Thanks for doing it a couple of Tuesdays ago.
