Starting point is 00:00:00 Can we talk about underpants? Sure. Okay. Like Brian Stelter. What kind of underpants do you think he wears? I don't want to think about that. Okay. Well, it's smooth like a Kendall, I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:00:12 But anyway, I doubt he wears something cool like Tommy John. Now, Tommy John is the maker of underwear. And, you know, I don't wear any. So what do I know about that? However, what I... People are right now like... Why are you revealing all these weird things? I don't know why you know this about barion stelter.
Starting point is 00:00:31 That's an interesting. Well, it's just a guess. Anyway, they also make loungewear, and it's really, really great. 17 million pairs sold so far.

It's Tuesday. And I just have to bring some news from Washington to you. That is such a relief. I mean, people think that Joe Biden is a little out of touch.
Starting point is 00:02:11 The administration is a little out of touch with the average person. But I'm going to correct that myth. Okay. There's not going to be any of this. fake news on this program. I'm going to correct that. This guy is rock solid.
Starting point is 00:02:30 He is living right where the American people are. Just some things the White House announced yesterday. And you will see. Out of touch? I'm going to do it anyway. Jeffrey lives here in Texas. He writes in about his experience with Relief Factor
Starting point is 00:03:00 He said, I want to send a message in of thanks, Glenn. I am free of pain in my knee and lower back, which means I can keep my auto detailing business going. Let me tell you, it was touch and go there for a while. I'm back to working hard and ride my motorcycle. Thank you, Jeffrey. Thank you for riding in. Relief factor. Relief factor is not a drug.
Starting point is 00:03:22 It was developed by doctors, and it has four key ingredients that work with your body to fight inflammation, which causes most of our pain. Three-week quick start has been developed, and it's 1995. It's a dollar a day like the trial pack, and hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor, and 70% of them go on to order it month after month. Why would you do that unless it works? ReliefFactor. Go to Relieffactor.com. Relieffactor.com or call 1-800 for relief. 1-800, the number four, relief.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Relieffactor.com. Relief Factor. feel the difference. So, Stu, when you think of Joe Biden, what is the first thing that just leaps to your mind? Well, lunch bucket Joe. Lunch bucket Joe, which, you know, everybody in the press has called him that free.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Middle class Joe. Middle class Joe. Why would you call him middle class Joe? Because everyone calls him middle class Joe. He tries to say, come on, stop, but they just keep doing it. He doesn't necessarily. want that nickname, but he'll admit it if he has to. Yeah, now let me ask you this.
Starting point is 00:04:34 When people went to the polls, now you're going to have to do some speculation. Okay. But when people went to the polls and they actually voted, what do you think when they said, I'm for lunch bucket Joe? Right. What do you suppose they were thinking and hoping would happen? Well, I was that they would probably think, you know, there's this guy who was president. Orange Man Bad.
Starting point is 00:05:01 He was tweeting all the time. Do you remember that? Mm-hmm. Yeah, you remember him? I do. And he was, he was getting in fights with people all the time. Yeah. And what we want here, Glenn, is a return to normalcy.
Starting point is 00:05:14 A return to normalcy. Something that is, you know, very American. Something that we all recognize as, oh, well, that's not unusual. Right. Something to go back to the way. We all understand this country should be. Oh, my God. Gosh, and thank goodness we have him.
Starting point is 00:05:32 He's got into office, and yesterday, the Biden administration talked about how they are going to, they're going to start handing out crack pipes to drug addicts in underserved communities. That's not exactly the return to normalcy. I was thinking. The Department of Health and Human Services fiscal year 2022 has a harm reduction program. And they're going to, the crack pipe plan is, well, it's a kit that will provide safer pipes to drug addicts when they, when they smoke crack cocaine or crystal meth. Safer pipes? Saper pipes, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:19 See, you know, a lot of times they'll use glass pipes and sometimes they can crack and then they'll lead to an infection in the crack user. No. Yes. No. Yes. Yes. So here's the thing. The grant, not everybody gets this. Okay. Not everybody gets this. This is where it really centers right into the American people. You know what I mean? Sure, any president you could see saying, hey, free crack pipes. You know what I mean? Very common. That's the normalcy we've been talking about. That was the unspoken thing. George Washington did this. If you don't know, George Washington, when they were going across the Delaware, they were smoking.
Starting point is 00:06:59 crack. But this is where it gets even more uniting. Okay. Oh, okay. The grant money will be prioritized for selection if they promise to use the funds in underserved communities. So, you'll get the free crack
Starting point is 00:07:14 pipes if you're serving a large African American or LGBTQ plus population. Are they saying that black people smoke crack? No, I don't think they're saying that.
Starting point is 00:07:31 That seems to be what they're saying. No, they've got to be saying something else. They're prioritizing delivery to African Americans of crack pipes. Uh-huh. Okay. That's the post-racial presidency we all expected. If that's not a Democrat policy from the 1950s and 60s or from the 1860s, I don't know what is. That is unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:07:57 And right in. line with what I think America was thinking. Because that is, when you say lunch bucket Joe, you think of the guy, you're on the, you're on the, construction site. Right. It's time for lunch. You're sitting on, you know, on the, on the side of the building. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:14 You know, on the ground in your work boots. Lunch bucket Joe comes over. He's a normal guy. I've been working normal real hard jobs his whole life. And he's just going to have a normal conversation about what's bugging him. Yeah. You might see him at the end of a bar, maybe having a beer after work. That's right.
Starting point is 00:08:27 And here's what's getting at him today. Yeah. And it'll express the same sort of concerns you have. He's like, I want crack pipes that are safe for African Americans and gay people. That's what I'm looking for. You might actually see that one at the end of the bar. But that's not what we're looking for out of a president of the United States. Yeah, it's so, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Anyway, Seattle and San Francisco had the, you know, crack pipe thing. It didn't work out so well. No. Yeah. And so they're getting rid of it. But Joe knows that. an injustice. So we've got,
Starting point is 00:09:00 we've got that one. By the way, Justice Department, they've already been thwarted once. The court said, now you can't do this. But they're thinking about doing it anyway. You know,
Starting point is 00:09:13 crack pipes are one thing. But what about those who inject heroin? Okay? The government is now, I am not making this up. They are now considering putting vending machines in where if you needed a clean needle you could get one. A needle vending machine.
Starting point is 00:09:40 That is what the American people were demanding. I mean, doesn't it make you just feel so American? You're like, we are on the right track. We are going to restore ourselves to the great nation that we really are. what's been holding us back those damn glass crack pipes in the inner cities I mean you know the people in the suburbs
Starting point is 00:10:08 they can get their own damn wooden or metal crack pipe you know because they're they're a dime a dozen out in the suburbs but this has been an underserved community and crack pipes
Starting point is 00:10:23 that's true and I will say what you know he did promise to shut down the virus and as we know, when is a virus ever spread through intravenous drug use? Yes. That's never been an issue. Never been an issue. Never, never, never. By the way, speaking of shutting things down, lunch bucket Joe strikes twice.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Now, lightning doesn't usually strike twice, you know, in the same place. But yesterday at the White House, it struck more than two times, actually. But the second time they made an announcement yesterday, and who hasn't been called? for this. Can we please, for the love of Pete, release the 20th hijacker from 9-11? Can we please just release him? Do you remember those big protests before the 2020 election? Well, this is the truckers. The truckers here in America. Oh, okay. I don't know about those crazy Nazis up in Canada, but the truckers here, I'm sure they're like, we want the 20th hijacker released. And Gitmo shut down.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Huge priority for the American people right now. Huge priority. There are some people that are like, oh, my money situation is a little tight. Yeah, but what about the 20th hijacker? Yeah. Okay. What about him? And what happens if that 20th hijacker can't get a crack pipe for free?
Starting point is 00:11:48 Or a needle out of a vending machine. It's horrid. This is a horror show. This nation is a horror show. my gosh. And this is the sort of stuff lunch bucket Joe can relate to the people with. You know,
Starting point is 00:12:04 what do you guys need? What do you guys want? Come on, man. Well, they wanted, you know, sure. We all wanted the 20th Ijacker released. Right. And the crack pipe and the needle thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:13 But, you know, I think a priority. And he got it right. Because day before yesterday, you know, he released $25 billion of frozen assets to Iran. And that was my priority. You know, and I think a lot of Democrats, you know, I'm a little on the edge on this. I think a lot of Democrats would agree with me. You know, not probably a lot of conservatives.
Starting point is 00:12:40 You know, but hey, can we just please give the Ayatollah and Hezbollah another $25 billion? What we landed in the middle of the night on that tarmac. That wasn't enough. That was not enough. And it was that sweet spot right between 26 and 24. billion that we were all talking about. The conservatives were saying, no, only 24 billion. The liberals were saying, no, 26 billion.
Starting point is 00:13:04 And he found a way to compromise. Wow, it's brilliant. Everyone was demanding billions go there. It was just a matter of how many billions. So a lot of people are saying, you know, I'm just talking about the whiners. What are we going to do about the economy? Oh, geez. Yesterday, the White House came out with yet another new plan.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Oh. The problem with the economy is that, well, the unions aren't very strong. And so they announced a goal yesterday of unionizing 50% of America. Just the 50%. That's all they want? Yeah, we're at 14%. So it's not a big deal.
Starting point is 00:13:47 We're at 14%. But tripling it would still leave at 8% short. Yes, it would. Okay. Yes, it would. They want to triple it. Yeah. And then add another half.
Starting point is 00:13:58 and then a little more. Well, it's gone down. Actually, I was wrong. It's not 12%. It's gone down. It was a whopping 30% at the height of the unions in the 1950s. 30%. It's down to 10.3.
Starting point is 00:14:14 So they want five times as many people in the unions as percentage of the population. That shouldn't. I know what's going to take a couple weeks. Look, they want 71 million people. Just 71 million people. million? I mean, that's easy. Not 75 million. No, 71 million. Membership is 14 million today. So they want 71 million. And that is half of the workforce. So I think this is, I mean, that's what I was looking for. And why are they doing it? You ask, well, I'll tell you why. Whether it's fighting COVID-19, advancing social and economic equity for underserved communities, i.e. crack. pipes. Tackling climate change and building a modern, sustainable economy, i.e., death of the free
Starting point is 00:15:04 market, we need a vibrant labor movement. So that's good. That's good. Now, you know, there are reports out there that saying doing this would increase the infrastructure projects that the White House is working on from anywhere from 12 to 20%. But who cares? We can print more. Okay? What do you care about? Money or people?
Starting point is 00:15:30 People, says Joe Biden. You're probably one of those haters that don't think we should be handing out free crack pipes. Right? Am I right? Am I right? You darn right, I'm right. Hmm. This is him, this is Lunch Bucket Joe, though, connecting to the people. This is, he's on top of it, of all the concerns. I mean, when you look at the polls,
Starting point is 00:15:56 the number one concerns always crack pipes. Yeah, for underserved communities. You know how we always say the president shouldn't read polls? Yeah. I think we got that. I think we have a president. We got somebody who did it. It does not read the polls.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Or he reads them upside down. Yeah. I don't know. It could be that. Could be that. Yeah. And has no advisors that are really in touch with the American people at all. You know, he wants it to look more, you know, like Supreme Court.
Starting point is 00:16:29 I want it to look more like America. Well, handing out crack pipes, union jobs, you know, and needles. I don't think gets us there. No? I don't. I don't. You know what he should do is he should appoint the first crack smoking Supreme Court justice. because he apparently thinks that it's in the inner city.
Starting point is 00:16:57 So maybe you'd get, you know, a black person as well, which he's really in favor of. He's already said he's going to do that. Yeah, well, I mean, you're smoking crack. You could get white or black. But if he does it in the, what did he say, underserved communities? I think that's what he's saying because it's racial equity. So maybe he could get somebody from that underserved community that's smoking crack. That's also qualified, but nobody pays attention to for Supreme Court.
Starting point is 00:17:27 You really threading a needle with a... Don't say need. Wrong. Oh, yeah. Really wrong words. American financing NMLS-182334. www. www.
Starting point is 00:17:37 NMLS Consumeraccess.org. Okay. Hope you're bracing yourself for the upcoming volatility that is going to hit the markets. Until inflation slows down, interest rates are going to fluctuate. You know, kind of talking minute to minute. Never know, you know. I like that kind of volatility. I like living on the edge.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Hey, am I going to be wiped out financially tomorrow or maybe next week or maybe not at all? Oh, it's fun. Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun. Anyway, I want to talk to you about American financing because they will help you weather any storm that is coming. You can start the process. By the way, I was reading something really interesting. You know, I said the other day, should buy land. Maybe buy land, you know, because that's a hard asset.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Yeah, and then I thought, you know, they're going to try to get us out of land, and how are they going to do that? Raise taxes on land. Yeah, like the Sheriff of Nottingham. Won't that be fun? Oh, it'll be great. So while they're thinking about how to destroy our lives, maybe we should think about how do we preserve what we have. please do me a favor and stop paying all of this money to the mortgage companies. Stop paying all this money to these big fat cat banks.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Let's talk to somebody the other day. They're like, so the feds of, you know, that's part of the federal government. No, it's not. No, it's not. It's the banks. Yeah. And they need some help. You know, they've called themselves and said, hey, can we get some bailouts?
Starting point is 00:19:13 And they said to themselves, well, I don't know. But it looks like you're going to collapse if not. We don't like to do it. And they said, yeah, I know you don't, but we really need it. And then they said, okay. So it was a really cool conversation between themselves at the Fed and the banks. Anyway, stop giving them so much money. Get yourself out of debt.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Think about a consolidation loan or lowering your mortgage at American financing, 800, 906, 2440, 800. 906 2440 Americanfinancing.net. 10 seconds, station ID. Yeah, this is all good. By the way, can we play cut one here? This is a reporter calling out and saying, hey, why did we unfreeze the $25 billion to Iran again? I don't understand how you can say that Iran gets no benefit
Starting point is 00:20:17 and that this isn't some kind of sanctions relief that the administration has offered to Iran before it has made any of its own concessions. Matt, the question I was responding to took this – Okay, well, then forget about the question you were – you think you were responding to. This guy is dead. Answer my question.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Does Iran benefit at all from the waivers that were signed? You will need to ask the Iranian government whether they think this is a benefit to them. Well, who do you get this benefit? Just you? How? How? How? How?
Starting point is 00:20:49 How? – – Okay, I'm sorry. Nuclear safety projects in Iran. Is the U.S. in the face of our growing concerns, nonproliferation and nuclear safety concerns, that is in our benefits. Yes.
Starting point is 00:21:02 The people that this benefits, in fact, are actually Russian, Chinese, European companies, right? Is that what you're saying? Matt, I'm saying that it is manifestly to our advantage. And not Iran. It benefits us to be able to address nuclear safety and nuclear non-proliferation. This press room is completely empty. It's just this guy from the AP. the cone head from the State Department.
Starting point is 00:21:29 And I love this guy. He's just like broken. He just like, all right, screw it. That's what I feel like every day he walks in. He's like, what kind of horse crap are you going to be shoveling today? Yeah. That guy, I mean, the guy from the State Department, you know he goes back, you know, to his office. And he's like, can't we have this guy killed?
Starting point is 00:21:50 We have the drones. Yeah, we have the drones. We got spies someplace. don't we? I mean, kind of off this guy. Can he all of a sudden fall out of a window on the top floor of some tall building? I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:22:06 They have to be really irritated. This is the second time in the last couple of weeks. Yeah. That this guy is just rolled all over. I love him. Yeah, he's a hero. He won't come on the show because he's like, I'm a journalist, I'm sure. But maybe he's just really busy thinking about, oh, good God,

Starting point is 00:24:13 Hey, just a quick couple of updates. Apparently, the food's not real good in China. Who would have seen that one coming? That's shocking to me. It is. Apparently, all of the Olympians are protesting the, quote, horrid conditions. One Russian said, I cry every day. he's a you know
Starting point is 00:24:34 a weightlifter I cry every day food is so bad Russian weight lifter cries every day yes yes he is what kind of food are they serving these guys he is a competitor for Russia he said I only sleep all day because I don't have strength to get out of bed
Starting point is 00:24:52 I only eat three handfuls of pasta a day because it's just impossible to eat rest of food my stomach hurts I'm very pale huge black circles around my eyes. I cry every day. I'm very tired. This is terrible. I mean,
Starting point is 00:25:07 it's not Uyghur concentration camp terrible, but why would they care about something like that? Right. Well, the catering apparently is questionable. You know, it's not like you're at Davos. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:25:21 There are no hot meals. There are crisps, which I think are potato chips. Is that right? Or would that be a cookie? I'm not sure. It's these, you know,
Starting point is 00:25:30 these lesser countries that call things differently, you know, crisp, I think that's a chip, like a potato chip. Pringles are potato crisps, not potato chips. Do you know that? Really? That's true. It's because it's not a chip. They can't legally call it a chip.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Because they pour it out into a mold. So it's a crisp. So they have crisps, nuts, chocolate, and nothing else. well that's clearly not true because the Russian eats bags a posta every day I have to have posta
Starting point is 00:26:09 my stomach hurts and I only have a handful of pasta well have you tried to boil it maybe maybe that's the deal Mr. Russian I am sick and tired of people badmouthing the good people of China there are people in China that are going hungry and you're complaining about the food they're serving
Starting point is 00:26:26 I mean why don't you don't if you don't like that food why don't you put it in an envelope and send it to the Uighur village? They'll eat it. They'd love it. They'd love it. By the way, the 20-year-old Uighur skier. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Yeah, that was... She slit, she lit the... Yeah, the torch. Olympic flame. Yeah, it was powerful. You know what, I think it was an in-your-face moment to the stupid Americans who call it genocide. Yeah. Because if it was genocide, why would they put a Uyghur on the biggest stage of the world to light the Olympic
Starting point is 00:27:00 flame. Preach it. Come on. Yeah. Why would they do that if they didn't like these people? Yeah. They obviously love them. They gave them the best job in the whole world. Here's the deal. Yeah. Here's the deal. Right. They're not killing the Uighers. No. Why would they draw more attention to it? So, if they were doing something bad. You know how she paid China back? How? She had her Olympic event. She's a skier.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Nobody knew of her before. It's not like she was a big skier in China. Really? That's surprising because usually people who follow skiing would know the Olympic skiers that are going to make the team. Yeah, well, apparently, you know, there's not a lot of skiing in the camp she came from. But so she was allowed to ski an honor for anyone.
Starting point is 00:27:49 For anyone? For anyone. And it shows how much China loves the Uyghurs. Exactly right. And she placed 43rd in her cross-country event. Oh, that's... And then... She disappeared.
Starting point is 00:28:02 She. Yeah, she disappeared. Now, that is not a regular. That does not happen in China very much. Well, sometimes people go away on, let's say, a vacation. Yeah, she didn't. She probably trained really hard for the Olympics. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:19 And was a little disappointed maybe in her performance. So she's on vacation. She may be maybe at a beach somewhere. Or under a beach. Some play. Perhaps. Like six feet under a beach. Maybe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:28:31 I don't know. Who knows? We don't know. We don't know. But they gave her, quote, a bold and unprecedented opportunity of lighting the Olympic flame. And that's what she does. She comes in 43rd and now no one can find her. See, some people have speculated. And I just want to get this out of the way, just so we can dispatch with this nonsense.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Uh-huh. Some people have speculated. They just picked a Uyghur that was not at all qualified to be. in the Olympics just so they could use it for propaganda purposes and people like Savannah Guthrie could cheer them on during the broadcast. You are a cynic, I'm not. You're not saying that. I distanced myself from that line of thought.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Yes, that would be misinformation. That would be Olympic Chinese misinformation. Yes, I should get banned from social media if I believe that, but I believe the opposite. I believe this wonderful athlete who China loves so dearly that they want to. to give the Uyghurs the platform to show the world how loved and multicultural the Chinese people really are. I only have the Soviet national anthem and the Nazi national anthem. I don't have the Chinese national anthem.
Starting point is 00:29:44 We should have it because they killed more than both of them. It's crazy. People lose that in history sometimes. They're responsible for even more. Wow. Wow. Yeah. There it is.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Oh, my gosh. Don't you feel patriotic? soon the new American national anthem this is nothing to the Soviet the Soviets way better they're not even they're not even pronouncing their words
Starting point is 00:30:14 right now I don't even know what they're saying that's a bad choir stop that stop that I mean learn the lyrics I have the new I have the new go on Spotify they come up right under the song right you know
Starting point is 00:30:28 geez sing along Yeah, yeah. I have the new Spotify anthem. It's their theme song. Yeah. They haven't even fired him yet. Oh, it's coming. It's clearly coming.
Starting point is 00:30:44 It's clearly coming. You haven't even done it yet. You're already on this anthem? I'm already. Not me. I'm not doing it. Is this available on Spotify? I wonder.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Yeah. Can we get this song on Spotify? Yeah. What is the name of it? Horsh. Somebody or rather lied. Horse, bless. Or somebody.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Vessel lied or something like that. Yeah, that's, yeah. So. I didn't know. I have the White House theme song too. No, I don't. It's new. This is the greatest.
Starting point is 00:31:16 It is. This is the best anthem. We should trade ours in. No one's even using it. Right. We're just trading in right now. We should go to this one. We just change it to Mother America.
Starting point is 00:31:25 Yeah. You know, I said a mother of Russia. Mother America. I don't even know what they're saying here. They're probably just saying, We hang you if you disagree, and we're like, okay, that fits. It still works. We don't have to change all the lyrics.
Starting point is 00:31:37 I mean, seriously, imagine if we just instituted this, and we then elected Dolph Lundgren to be president. Can you imagine we would, no one would challenge us? I think if you just do the math of Dolf Lundgren's age, we may have actually just elected Dolf Lundgren. Dolf's got to be younger than Joe Byron. Biden. I mean, by a lot. Well, you go to the national parks and you see things, you know, you see things like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:32:10 old faithful. And you're like, that's older. Dolf's 64 years old. 64. Not that old. Not that old. No, no, I don't think he's technically eligible or whatever to be president. But like, when's the last time we looked at the Constitution? We don't do that in this country. We're switching the national anthem to the Soviet one. And if we're going to go for that, uh, what the hell? let's just go for Elon Musk. What do you say?
Starting point is 00:32:34 I disagree with a lot of his policies, but it would be fun. I mean, America would have some, we'd have some features that would be fun. Wouldn't it be crazy if we had like a president who's like constantly tweeting taunts to all of his enemies all the time? That would be crazy. That would be a wild one. Oh, we better not do that. Okay. Here's life lock.
Starting point is 00:32:55 I'm sorry. We just can't take the world seriously today. Or we like Russian. and we just cry our eyes out all day.

Now, nobody can stop the bear from eating you all the time. but if you have a cyber bear that is trying to eat you, you want somebody there that has experience in stopping bears from eating you.

Starting point is 00:34:39 I haven't had a weaker lighted yet. This is the 1915, 36 Berlin Olympics torch. This is the one that Adolf Hitler watched come into the stadium. Now imagine if he would have had a Jew carrying the torch and running in. This is really an in-your-face moment to the Americans who are saying that the Nazis don't like the Jews. Do you believe that? You imagine that?
Starting point is 00:35:11 I mean, that would have been the coverage. Yeah, it would have been. It would have been. And Hitler had already purged all of the Jews from the Olympic team. There were a lot of really good athletes that were Jewish. He got rid of all of them and wanted everybody to know. Nothing has happened. They're going to a special place.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Special place. In 1936, the world felt a little like it does today. We were on the edge of war and nobody wanted war. the German team was the spectacle. This was the moment that would justify Hitler's regime to the world because he was clearly a racist. Sorry, Whoopi. He believed in the master race, the Aryan race, which is a made-up race.
Starting point is 00:36:11 And he was expecting the Aryan athletes to win all the medals. But he knew at the beginning of the game, there was one guy standing in his way. He was a 22-year-old American. His name was Jesse Owens. Jesse had a hard time deciding whether he was going to come and represent the United States because he was black and in America, he wasn't really getting the recognition of being the athlete that he really was. This would be the first chance for everyone in the whole world to see him in action. in three days he won four medals proving Hitler wrong each time he grabbed the gold
Starting point is 00:36:54 but then it came time for the long jump now this is the event he held the world record in and he choked he fouled out then he did it again he choked a second time and fouled out he was jumping too late he had one more chance to try for the finals.
Starting point is 00:37:22 The pressure was getting to him. Hitler was in the stands watching. He knew he not only had to prove himself, but he had to prove Hitler wrong. He needed to jump 23 and a half feet to qualify. That's insane, isn't it? That's just to qualify. If he didn't make it,
Starting point is 00:37:48 he would become the fodder for German propaganda. because there was another guy waiting to jump. He was the German Aryan. His name was Lutz Long. And he was picture perfect Aryan. Blue eyes, blonde, tall, young. He was really great at the long jump. If Hitler could have 3D printed a bunch of, you know, people that he could say,
Starting point is 00:38:17 look, this is the perfect Aryan race. They all would have looked like Lutz Long. Except he wasn't Hitler's perfect German. In fact, he was far from it. Before Jesse stepped to the sandpit to jump for his third attempt, Lutz walked up to him and whispered in his ear, gave him some advice. He said, you're jumping way before the foul line. I'm going to go over and I'm going to take my towel off my neck and I'm just going to lay it down.
Starting point is 00:38:52 You jump where the towel is. The effect? Jesse qualified. 25 feet. So they both moved into the finals where Jesse beat him for the gold. Lutz was the first to congratulate. They, in fact, walked arm in arm around the stadium, posing for pictures. It was a giant middle finger to the dictator.
Starting point is 00:39:23 And Lutz knew that. he chose sportsmanship and friendship even when he knew Hitler could have him killed and that's exactly what happened to him he was sent to the front where he died before he died Lutz and Jesse Owens became good friends
Starting point is 00:39:48 his final letter to Jesse Owens he said when the war is done go to Germany go someday and find my Carl and tell him about his father. Tell him, Jesse, what times were like when we were not separated by war. Tell him how things can be between men on this earth. He closed it with, I think I might believe in God, which was the final gift to Jesse Owens. Because after seeing Jesse pray before he competed at the Olympics, it was Jesse who Lutz went on to learn about God from.
Starting point is 00:40:33 He was killed shortly after writing the letter. The bravery of two men in a world losing its soul. That's where we are. Will we choose friendship? Will we choose kindness? It seems like a small choice, but in a world like we live in today, it's a choice that changes and shocks the world.
Starting point is 00:41:04 Let me tell you a little bit about Bilt Bar, okay? There's nothing good about working out, nothing. And so what do you have to do is just eat fewer calories. I know, it's crazy. It's like, hey, get eight hours sleep. Why? It's supposed to make you feel better? Sure.

In 10 minutes, you can get a free mortgage review that could lead you to hundreds of dollars of savings every month, maybe even a thousand. Consider consolidation loan or a mortgage refi.

So one of the best investigative reporters in the country, if not the best, and the one is still doing her job. I mean, there used to be some other good ones, but now nobody's doing it anymore. Cheryl Ackinson, she is an investigative reporter. She is the host of Full Measure with Cheryl Ackison and the author of The Smear. Welcome to the program, Cheryl.
Starting point is 00:45:20 How are you? I'm great. It's good to be here. So, Cheryl, I've been thinking about you ever since this thing with Joe Rogan started because you literally wrote the book on how this happens. And I'm watching this unfold and it's bringing back some very vivid memories. It's wave after wave after wave. It started with, you know, he's giving misinformation, given misinformation about COVID.
Starting point is 00:45:50 And then it was, he's a racist. And now it's he's a transphobe. How does this end? You know, yeah, it's by the playbook. In my book, The Smear, where I dissected what was done to use. what was done to Don Imus. Actually, I would say the Joe Rogan plan looks almost exactly like what media matters and the left propagandists there and the interests behind them, what they did to Don Imus, if you remember.
Starting point is 00:46:18 And it's when they find an enemy of whatever they're advocating or their money interests don't want discussed or exposed, they find other reasons to smear the person and try to remove them. And I talked about, well, what's the difference between a smear and just telling the truth? Because Joe Rogan acknowledges he said some objectionable things that are very hard to hear today. Well, I described that in the smear, and there is a line that explains this. These people, when this happens, are targeted not because of the information and views that they're being smeared for, but because of the other influence they have over issues that aren't even being talked about now, which is the COVID, you know, putting out factual information that some didn't want heard.
Starting point is 00:47:09 And I think Rogan was clearly targeted because he had large followings that showed ordinary people not fringe or alone when they're thinking of certain thoughts and views or reading certain scientific studies. So do you think it really is just that? Or is it they can't tolerate someone who won't bow to? them, they got to take him out. Well, yes, they do, but only because he's not on the right side of the money interests that people may not understand or behind these efforts that look like they're sort of grassroots efforts, but they're very well organized.
Starting point is 00:47:46 You and I know, media matters and other groups, once they targeted Rogan, started coming through every word he ever sat over time, and had probably already been gathering on him. They listen to everything you say, everything I say, everything we write, hoping to find that one little grain they could amplify into a smear for the power of destruction to get rid of voices that are off the narrative on these topics that their money interests care about. So when they did this to me or my good friend, Don Imus, God rest his soul, the, I forgot he's not in heaven. Anyway, when they did it to us, it was new to the American people. And they, you know, you'd be like, no, these people are financing this. And a lot of people are like, yeah, right. And it was kind of a conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Now everyone knows. Everyone knows. They've seen it over and over and over again, and they're sick of it. How does this just, does he, how do you think this ends? Well, I think that's a great question. You know, I think Trump was the one who didn't crack when this stuff happened to him. Everybody else, there's some pressure to apologize to crack. Once that little bit of weaknesses there, as I wrote about, it's not as though the apology is there
Starting point is 00:49:06 and then they go away, meaning the propagandist, that's when they really think their teeth in because they sense weakness and opportunity. And their goal isn't really to get an apology. Their goal is to destroy the person who's harmful to their interests. So they keep going. How this ends, I'm not sure because I think you raise a good point. Have they gone too far? People now recognize this. When they're going after, I use the example, when everybody's anti-vaccine and people know they're not, but when they're all called that, when everybody's called racist and people know they're not, and when Joe Rogan, who's not a
Starting point is 00:49:40 radical conservative or giving misinformation and his listeners know that, when he's accused of that, it starts making people go, aha. So they think something's going on and it's less effective. Maybe they've overplayed their hands by broadening the net of the people that they attack and getting more and more bold. But I think that's a sign on their part of the propagandists of desperation because people like Joe Rogan are very effective in piercing the narratives, often the false narratives that they have, you know, they make sure it's all over the media.
Starting point is 00:50:12 I've been saying this for, I don't know, last couple of months. I've had increased hope that things are going to turn because people seem to be waking up and not just the ones that were maybe asleep or, you know, weren't active on, you know, the more conservative side of the spectrum. But Democrats, not leftist, but Democrats, Democrats are starting to say, you know, I don't want any of this stuff. This is ridiculous. And I sense that there is a change in our society because, everything's accelerating so rapidly that it's easy to see now. And I think, yes, again, have they overplayed their hands? Several years ago.
Starting point is 00:50:59 And I liken it to, everybody says the pendulum swings. Well, the organized efforts and the well-funded efforts, they've dominated since about the 2016 time period in a big way. But I don't think they're the majority. And the majority of people who feel differently, they're not organized and well-funded, so it takes a little longer. It kind of simmers, but I think it's simmered enough, and enough important things have happened, and enough people have been attacked, that maybe you're correct, that it's starting to maybe swing the other way,
Starting point is 00:51:30 or enough people want to do something about it that it's reaching critical mass. And what stops these people, Cheryl? I always say the truth finds a way to be told. So ultimately the facts come out. you hear, I thought it was kind of funny. I heard today some of these states are lifting mask mandates and people were speculating. Well, maybe they're looking at science. And no, it's, it's the fact that I think the vaccine mandate cultists have all gotten COVID now. So they're suddenly starting to say we should recognize natural immunity. I mean, ultimately, the truth is the truth.
Starting point is 00:52:08 And it may take longer to get out in the sea of these, this disinformation. But, but I think ultimately it does. And you find that people can find facts and good information as much as others try to hide it from them. It may not be easy, but people naturally seek it. So I think that's how it ends. The best advice I give, Glenn, that I think some people have actually taken, every time someone says, you know, online or trying to clear it, but you shouldn't see here or read something, that should make you go, look at it,
Starting point is 00:52:45 listen to it or read it. And that's how you defeat the cancel and the propagandist when you say, when you're censoring something, that means it's important. It doesn't mean it's necessarily true, but it might be true. And you should go and investigate it. And that pretty much makes their strategy or tactics moot. Yeah. I think that's exactly what's happening too is they are so freaked out because they're
Starting point is 00:53:09 becoming reckless and so overt. and, you know, this thing from CNN, I mean, just on the bandwagon, beating the drum and tooting the horn about how these people need to be canceled is crazy. It's crazy. Well, as I wrote about, the most effective propaganda campaigns and smears are the ones that are invisible to the public, that you don't see the hand behind them. You're influenced in a subtle way. but you're right, this has gotten so obvious, I think, in the face of desperation on the part of the interest that really want to sway us, you know, to look to a different place. I think it's gotten to be where people are looking at it, like you say, Democrats, Republicans, independents, whoever you are, and starting to go, what's harmful to the propagandists is, they're starting to say, beyond COVID and beyond Joe Rogan, what else have they done this with that I just didn't think about? Right.
Starting point is 00:54:10 And I think back to the vaccine autism issue. You know, there's been scientific studies, lawsuits and settlements, admissions by the government and their own experts that vaccines can cause autism for years. But that's just considered, you know, over and over again, debunk, debunk, debunk. Think of what they've done to these parents, some of the same public health agencies for decades, portraying them as crazy while behind the scenes, settling and paying lawsuits and knowing that their own experts felt differently. So you start to apply.
Starting point is 00:54:39 what else does this, what else does this apply to what we're seeing today? How damaged is the, I mean, I think the media is just imploding. And unfortunately, the government credibility has imploded. And now science and medicine is imploding. I mean, that's not a recipe for a healthy country in any way, shape, or form. Well, it's not, and step one is to recognize that, but I don't know how you get back to a place where those influences aren't still at play. You know, they're there. They're accomplishing their goal in some instances. If they simply confuse the situation, let's say there is medical information that a company doesn't want you to have about their medicine. Well, if they simply confuse it and you don't know what to believe, that's better than you believing the truth.
Starting point is 00:55:37 and we're in this confused environment where everybody's putting out all the conflicting information. And so, yes, people know to be skeptical. They're starting to understand all of that. But that's not necessarily a healthy situation either. And, you know, I'm going to be reporting stories that discuss in the near future. I mean, does CDC need to be, and I don't think it will be, but does it need to be blown up and restarted? Very few people have the kind of faith in CDC that they used to. Right.
Starting point is 00:56:06 And, you know, to have the biggest pandemic challenge that they've supposedly gotten trillions of dollars to prepare for over the decades and so utterly fail and make so many bad decisions at every turn. I mean, what is that agency all about? And, you know, I still look at the fact that of all the things we know that have gone wrong, the same people are still in charge. They haven't even made it. I'm not saying punish and imprison these experts that were wrong. someone else can decide all of that stuff. But these people are so long and we're still listening to them. I mean, that's just stunning to me.
Starting point is 00:56:43 And it's like that in almost every department. I mean, I've said to President Trump in an interview recently, if you're going to run again, you're going to have to clean house. I mean, everywhere, top to bottom. And you're going to need the house and the Senate to go along with you. And I don't know if anybody is interested in actually cleaning out the swamp. but every single agency is kind of like the CDC where, okay, some good people in there, but there's also some really bad people, some people that are misreading, and other people
Starting point is 00:57:20 that have their own agenda. Well, this fears into an expanded topic, but, you know, in four to eight years, no one can clean all that out. This operates independently of the president, this mechanism you're talking about, the I call it persistent bureaucracy. And they fight back with either just not implementing what the president wants if it's not what they want, or they launched lawsuits and subterfuge. And they can carry that on for a long time until the next person comes in. So I don't know how even if you clean house, you get something done in a meaningful way.
Starting point is 00:57:56 I think Trump came the closest to it. Yeah, I do too. Despite the fact that he was fought at every step, but he did do some things like reducing regulation. And after the lawsuits ended finally starting to accomplish what he wanted with the wall, I mean, it's amazing he got anything done. Those are big changes in the bureaucracy like this. I would be very interested to see his approach if he were to get reelected. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Cheryl, thank you so much. I know you're really busy, but thanks for coming by. I've been thinking about you recently. And you were one of the people that had been targeted. And then, you know, you have no place here on network television. so you went out and you did your own thing and it's wildly successful. And now many of us feel like we're going to be chased off of our own platforms, which is bizarre, just bizarre.
Starting point is 00:58:45 We've got to turn this around soon. Well, thanks for having me any time for you. You got to, thanks, Cheryl Atkinson. She is the investigative reporter and the host of Full Measure with Cheryl Ackison. She's also the author of The Smear, which if you want to understand what's happening, this really is the go-to book. This explains it in great detail. She took about a year, year and a half to research all of the facts on all of the big smears.
Starting point is 00:59:13 And she explains and you will understand and you'll be able to watch the pattern. I mean, that's what, you know, she was saying, and I was too, it's just wave after wave. It comes and they do the same thing over and over again. And when is America going to say, shut up. just shut up you don't like it don't listen and I'm not listening to you because this is all what did Nancy Pelosi call it astroturf
Starting point is 00:59:39 this is all astroturf isn't it time that you start doing the things that you love again the one thing that I used to love to do there are two things that I had to stop doing painting and writing with a pencil or a pen I couldn't my hands just could not function
Starting point is 01:00:04 they'd be in such bad shape that I would write a paragraph and I had to stop. I like to write. I'm one of those paper people. I like to paint.

Starting point is 01:01:53 Yeah. Okay. And it was maybe Thursday of last week because we had him on and he said he was going to go by Friday to a like a city council meeting and he was hoping they were going to be reasonable. Right. No, they're not being reasonable. I'm stunned to hear that. Yeah, I know. I am too. And he is completely out. He's out. And he's looking for someone that will. represent him as an attorney because they are, I mean, they're completely out. They took away his business license. They took away his liquor license, everything else. And it's, this is not a law. This is just a mandate from the mayor. And there are restaurants all over, D.C.
Starting point is 01:02:36 that are not asking for people's vaccine notice. And they're fine. It's just that he said he wouldn't do it because it. wasn't right. It wasn't the law. These are a couple of things that I think that are major priorities for Republicans should they gain power in the near future. One
Starting point is 01:02:54 was OSHA. Let's figure out what OSHA is supposed to be doing because it's not this. As the courts may have knocked down this one thing, but they're already way too deep into the American workplace. But secondly is this idea that like, you just keep going with the emergency orders forever.
Starting point is 01:03:11 Like, okay, the first couple of weeks, you can understand maybe you don't have time gather people in the legislature to pass a law. But if you want one of these things done, pass a freaking law. Yep. They had two years to do this, and they're still going on executive emergency orders.

You have the mayor making a rule, hasn't even gone through city council, and they're not shutting down restaurants that aren't checking, but these guys said, we're not going to check because it's not really even a law. And they have come at them with a bag of bricks every day.
Starting point is 01:06:17 Yeah, within hours of expressing dissent, they went after the owner. They took their alcohol license away within 24 hours. And 24 hours later, they padlocked the building. I mean, this is the kind of world we're living in now. These people are out of control. I mean, there was a poll the other day that said about 50% of Democrats are willing to put you indefinitely in detention, to basically put you in jail if you're not vaccinated. I mean, this is a completely insane. And we now have a vaccine that I still think protects you. from getting sick, but it doesn't protect you from transmitting it or receiving the illness. So it's really nobody's concern other than your own.
Starting point is 01:06:58 If you want to get vaccinated due, I think it's still advisable, particularly in certain age groups and certain people who are overweight. But you make that decision. It should be nothing about you trying to force it on other people. I have to tell you, thank you for signing the pledge to not agree to any spending tomorrow if it involves mandates. I don't know what every single Republican. If they don't sign that, they should, honestly, you should take a hard look at those Republicans that won't sign this.
Starting point is 01:07:32 What is your possible reason? And if they don't give you a good reason, don't reelect them. Yeah, and there is a shift going on, though, because you're even seeing Democrat governors saying, gosh, we're going to live like this forever. So I think now at the time to be vocal and to push back, particularly on masking. on our kids. We need to push back on the masking on airlines. There's no evidence that the masks are working at all. You want evidence that the masks on the airlines don't work. You saw that plane that went with the, I think, mostly Mormon missionaries back to the Pacific Island. Everybody tested negative before the got the plane. 42 out of 54 had the disease when they landed. And I'm
Starting point is 01:08:13 not balking anybody, and I'm chuckling because they were all masked for 12 hours on that plane, and yet everybody on the plane got COVID. Now, fortunately, I don't know that any of them are actually sick, which is sort of another question we have to say, are we going to continue to have all these mitigation, mask, and separation that don't work for something that is largely not making people very sick? Let me ask you, let me switch topics to Ukraine. It feels as though, unlike anything I've ever felt, that our government, our administration, is kind of pushing for a war in Ukraine with right.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Russia? Am I? Is it just me? You know, you feel it among the members of Congress up here, too, and many of them are sort of from the never-Trump camp, the Liz trainees, and the Adam Kinsinger's, these are the people who think war should be the first resort, not the last resort. And there are ways to have a more nuanced position. I think we should do things to try to deter Russia from invading Ukraine. And I think there's both carrot and sticks that could be put forward. I actually would be stronger than saying, oh, we'll put a few sanctions, I would work with Germany and say, look, this is what Biden tried to do yesterday, but Germany hasn't been as forthcoming, is to say if you invade Ukraine, we're not going to buy your natural gas.
Starting point is 01:09:28 I mean, in a big way, not just sanction it, but it really requires Germany's cooperation, because we just don't buy that much natural gas from Russia. We don't have that much trade at all with Russia. So I think that would be on the deterrent front. But on the other side of this, I actually don't think it's that unreasonable to say that we're not going to put Ukraine in a military alliance against Russia. I asked the Secretary of State this other day, I said, how would, how do you think we would respond if Mexico were joining a military alliance with Russia? You know, what do you think we might do? We might mask troops on the border with Mexico. We would be so unhappy.
Starting point is 01:10:02 We wouldn't tolerate it for a moment. I mean, this was somewhat of the Cuban missile crisis. We didn't tolerate them putting missiles on a nation close to us. We wouldn't tolerate a military alliance. We have to understand that that's their perspective as well. So I would do Karen I would tell them, look, we're going to have a veritable embargo if you invade, but we also will offer the carrot of saying, you know what, maybe Ukraine would be better than neutral country with one foot in the east and one in the west. And actually, I think it would be better for Ukraine to try to see the model of Switzerland being more of their model than the model of becoming a, you know, a military presence
Starting point is 01:10:38 with NATO. Um, the, the, the idea that, um, we are living under a regime, and I don't think I've ever used that word before, uh, for America, living under a regime that is, it's almost as if they're rooting against us in every possible way. Uh, the things that they did, uh, this, this weekend and the 25, billion dollars, you know, that they unfroze and gave to Iran. It's a group of people that are completely out of step with the American people. Well, it's also a group of people that, I mean, to know how bizarre and far out these people are, these are people that think Thanksgiving is a terrible holiday.
Starting point is 01:11:31 I mean, these are the people who think America is a terrible place, and we shouldn't be celebrating Thanksgiving because everything America did was horrible and everything Americans did were horrible. And I think that this is just a bizarre sort of world we are in. I mean, these are the people who think that we are in the wrong by saying that government schools should not medicate our children and shouldn't be giving our girls testosterone at the age of 13 without our permission. This is a bizarre world. But they're also, it's going to come home to Roos because as people understand and know how far out Democrats are, defund the police, give our kids sex hormones without our permission.
Starting point is 01:12:11 Give them even surgery, sex change surgery, or sexual appearance change surgery without our permission. I think they're going to paint themselves so far out on a limb, and it's happened, like in Kentucky. We used to be a majority Democrat registration state. We've now switched. Good church-going Democrat families are like, heck, no, I'm not for the government,
Starting point is 01:12:32 giving my kids sex hormones at school without my permission. These people are so bizarre that I think they're losing. America and hopefully the next election will show that. Talk to me a little bit about SCOTUS and what's happening there. You know, I think the one thing that I'm going to say over and over again, and I was told the media yesterday as I came up to them is that the one thing we will not do is we will not treat their nominee the way they treated Kavanaugh. I think what they did was reprehensible, is despicable, and we will show in contrast that
Starting point is 01:13:04 we can have a debate over someone's qualifications. And, you know, I'm not voting for somebody who's for abortion up to the time of birth. I'm not voting for somebody who has no concerns for the Constitution. But I'm also not going to stand up and make up stuff about their high school dating or saying they were rapists in high school, that kind of. That was so insulting and so demeaning. And the Democrats should be reminded in every step. We should also show the American public that we can disagree with someone on principled nature. and maybe even vote against that person,
Starting point is 01:13:36 but without making it a personal flander. So that I agree with that. I don't want to be, I do not want to become everything that, you know, that we despise on the other side. So I'm glad to hear that, and I agree with you.
Starting point is 01:13:53 However, there's a debate going on right now, especially with Spotify and Joe Rogan, about apologizing. And I think there's a place for apologizing, there's a place to be, you know, decent, but that doesn't mean that you surrender. You know, it's not that, you know, you have to fight a good fight and a fair fight. But I, people look at apologies or, you know, being more statesman-like.
Starting point is 01:14:23 They're starting to look at that as a sign of weakness. I don't think it is. I am tired of all the sort of mal kind of apologies where you read your statement. you look like you've been tortured all night long and you read it. And then you say stuff that, you know, like, you know, they make people apologize all the time for saying, I'm sorry for being transphobic. You know, I'm sorry for this.
Starting point is 01:14:46 You know, they call me transphobic. What adults do is not my concern. If you want to do that and do it. My concern is about the law and about kids and about consent. And, uh, but the thing is, is I'm not going out and making some Mao-esque apology. But doesn't mean we have to be.
Starting point is 01:15:03 rancorous as far as, you know, personally attacking people. And frankly, I don't think we do that. But, you know, we're going to see what happens as this thing moves forward. But, you know, I for one on the Spotify thing and on this, I'm, I guess, confused that people who went to Woodstock and didn't want to have any rules or clothes. Right. Somehow now they believe that speech is dangerous and they want to shut down people they disagree with. It's sort of the most. infantile juvenile proposition. And I don't get how they can't understand the irony of people who are free spirits now being against speech. I know. You ran for president once before. Any thought of running for president? America is starting to look like she's shifting back to a small government,
Starting point is 01:15:53 hey, let's follow the rule book kind of thing. Any thought about running for president again? you know sometimes until my wife says why in the world would you want to do that again you know i think so much of it depends on um you know if there were a free-for-all you know with an open open race that's one thing if don't trump runs again i just don't know that there'll be anybody that will be able to compete with Donald trump in a primary and so i think it depends on what what happens over time right now i'm mostly concentrating you know i'm running for re-election in Kentucky, and so I'm up in November and concentrating on that battle. How's it going?
Starting point is 01:16:33 I would assume it's going well. I think pretty good. What we're finding in Kentucky is that, like I say, the Democrat Party has left, conservative Democrats. You know, my in-laws were conservative Democrats, you know, church-moving, God-fearing, conservative Democrats, but they saw the party leave them, and that's what's happened to so many. I mean, we've had party officials now switch parties.
Starting point is 01:16:54 We have people changing registration. And so we're now on even footing. And the Democrat areas that were Democrat going back to the time of Andrew Jackson, I've actually switched and become Republican. So we're in a better place there. We have a few cities that vote Democrat, but they're not as dominating as like, you know, Atlanta sort of dominates the population of Georgia now. They're probably equal to the rest of the state.
Starting point is 01:17:17 And so it's becoming more hard when we don't do as well in the cities. Fortunately, in Kentucky, we have a significant, strong rural population and that they're able to more than counterbalance the city vote. Rand Paul, thank you so much, Senator. I appreciate it. Thanks, Mike. You bet. We are better off having him in the Senate, Kentucky.
Starting point is 01:17:39 You better. You better reelect him. Interesting answer on the presidential thing. Yeah, it seems like, you know, no Trump. And he seems like he'd be, he's a big sitting there. I think there's a lot of people that would say that. Yeah. If Trump's running, I'm out.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Right. If he's, you know, if he's not. You're going to start with a 50 point deficit and no one wants to do that. Yeah. Yeah. And you'll be, he'll find something about you and you'll forever be labeled that. He's good at that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:07 He's very good at that. There comes a day when you wake up in the morning, stare at your bed and think, you know, I think I'm doing the sleeping thing wrong. Stu and I, we have to talk about our sleep discovery that we had. The dumbest sleep discovery ever. We both had it just this weekend. Anyway, you could change your soul. sleeping situation.

Starting point is 01:19:52 They know what you're feeling, what you desire. That's why yesterday they came out and said, we're going to let the 20th hijacker go from 9-11. From 9-11. We're going to let him out of Gitmo. He's going to need some psychiatric care, but we're going to send him back to Saudi Arabia where he's from. Oh, and all the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia.
Starting point is 01:20:11 That's weird. I'm sure he'll get the help he needs. and we won't have a problem with him again. They also said that they're going to start handing out crack pipes. You know, another thing that was on your checklist, I'm sure. And the Reuters reporter was like, hold on just a second. Now, this is Andrea Shalala, and she was asking Jen Saki yesterday, whether or not President Joe Biden is going to investigate, quote,
Starting point is 01:20:36 the right-wing forces responsible for supporting Canada's freedom convoy. right and I mean we've all thought of that one we've all thought whoa wait a minute can we investigate those criminals because you know they're criminals still let me ask you a question they get us right so often you know conservatives they they just they nail us these the press they just nail us every day do they have microphones at our secret meetings I think they must you know I remember the big secret meeting where we were like how are we going to fight back against this and we all said Canadian truckers like all at the same time. It was exactly.
Starting point is 01:21:18 That's the most obvious path. Yeah. It was like freedom. Yeah. We're like we have to fight for our freedom here. Canadian truckers. Right. That's the that's the way that was the.
Starting point is 01:21:31 Over and over again, we've gone to the Canadian truckers to save us, which is amazing. I mean, it's amazing that that is really where we've, where we are. I mean, you know, look, they're not even popular there and they're fighting back here. I think the movement... I'm not sure they're not popular. It doesn't seem like, at least, you know, maybe you don't believe the polls or whatever, but like Canadians are different...
Starting point is 01:21:51 As similar as they are to Americans, they have a different way of dealing with authority. It's much more agreeable. They go to their house and wait until summer. Yeah, there's a lot of that. They just, they never, ever. They don't protest. They don't, I mean...
Starting point is 01:22:06 It's not what they do. No, it's not what they do. That's kind of what we do, and that's why it's surprising to see it happening in the numbers in Canada. Of course, it was on our coalition. That's what we said. We all got together and we said Canadian truckers.
Starting point is 01:22:17 That's what's going to solve our problems here. This is the Glenn Back program. So are you interested in financing a home that you're going to have houses and just constantly underwater because your pipes are always bursting and you're always going to have to move out and go to a different hotel? That's exactly what Sarah does. Oh, really? Yeah. That's right. This is the Sarah Sullivan.
Starting point is 01:22:40 Yeah. She just about got it finished. and pipes burst again. Yeah, and then again. So that's third time, right, Sarah? Yeah. Yeah. This is the one, two, three, Sarah Sullivan,
Starting point is 01:22:52 Home for Happiness plan that she's working on, and she's done it with American financing. American financing does not make your pipes burst, though. They do finance your mortgage at a great rate, and she has a great rate on this home. Unfortunately, she can't seem to keep it out from underwater, which is a problem. But you could actually have your house dry
Starting point is 01:23:11 and going toward financial freedom, just like Sarah in a couple of years when the house dries out. Sure. American financing. A black mold might play. Well, yeah, well, that's obviously the next step. 8009062440 or go to Americanfinancing.
Starting point is 01:23:26 Dot net. 8009062440 or go to Americanfinancing. Dot net radio show. Back in just a second. It is so weird every day I come in and he says that. And then I talk and I'm like, I'm Glenn Beck. What are the odds that I'm on the Glenn Beck? program every day. It's weird. Now, we're making, we're making, I didn't get a lot of
Starting point is 01:24:45 sleep last night. We're making great progress on ESG. I got to give you an update. Oh, and by the way, an update on the book. If you've ordered it, it's going to be out in the next couple of weeks, and hopefully you'll be able to go to a store and buy it. But if you've already ordered it, it's going to be shipped in the next couple of weeks. And the audio book is now, uh, available. I'm telling you, the guy who read it should win a Grammy. It he read it
Starting point is 01:25:16 beautifully. Beautifully. Coincidentally, same name as the guy who this program is about every day. It's weird. It's weird. But you can get it at Amazon or Kindle, not Kindle, but Audible or wherever
Starting point is 01:25:32 you get your audiobooks. Make sure you pick it up. Again, Grammy. I can see him on stage. I can see him on stage this year, accepting that Grammy. And he'll probably go off on some sort of political rant, and it will be embarrassing and horrible, and everybody will just yell at him.
Starting point is 01:25:53 But I think you'd like it. All right, let me tell you about our sponsor this F-hour. It's the Tuttle Twins. A rising tide lifts all boats. That is a phrase that is incredibly important to the foundation of our belief in Americans. It isn't something that children learn through osmosis.
Starting point is 01:26:13 You have to teach them. We don't learn leftist thinking through osmosis. You got to drill that into their little heads. And that's what they're being taught. They're not being taught rising tide lifts all boats. There's a war in our country of ideology, and it is incredibly important that you understand you are the only defense of your children.
Starting point is 01:26:37 Nobody else is going to teach them in this stuff. No one will teach them. Your kids and your grandkids, please, if you have neighbors that have kids, you should have this book in your home. Because you never know when you have the opportunity to drill the truth into a kid's head. That's probably not the best phrase to use. But anyway, 35% off the normal person. price. They're giving away a copy of their
Starting point is 01:27:09 magazine. Yeah, they even have a magazine. Plus all 12 activity workbooks. Just go to Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Get the deal right now. Tuttle twinsbeck.com but do it before Friday night. You'll get both bonuses and the discount. Tuttle twinsbeck.
Starting point is 01:27:25 Dotting. Oh, oh, oh, oh, is exactly what I was thinking. Listen, here is some good news about the Great Reset. laid last week and over the weekend there is there is a flood of new interest from state lawmakers looking to stop ESG and the rise of the Great Reset. You are doing your job and you are, you're making a huge, huge difference. We have received through Heartland, which my co-author is a big part of Heartland.
Starting point is 01:28:03 and they're getting all kinds of inquiries. And they've had to actually put together a team of three people at the Heartland Institute that is just dedicated to helping state legislators and other state officials work on ESG issues. And the lawmakers, I'm told, are very clear on why they're doing this. They all learned about the Great Reset from either listening to the program, watching one of them. my presentations on ESG, which is very hard to find now, or they heard it from a member of the audience. One member last weekend said he's been reading the Great Reset book and knew he had to get involved. So here's the thing. Let me give you an update on what is happening. We've just learned that state representative Jake Hoffman is introducing legislation House Bill 2650.
Starting point is 01:29:03 meant to stop the ESG discrimination in Arizona. Again, it's going to be House Bill 2656 for Arizona. This one, unlike other bills, this one I think is doing it right. Most states are dealing with government divestment. This is they're saying we're not going to put any money into your bank if you are coming with any kind of ESG and many of them only really concentrate on the E. I think that's a big mistake. But this one will prohibit financial institutions, banks, doing business in Arizona,
Starting point is 01:29:41 either directly or through a contractor, for using political affiliation or social credit, environmental, social, governance, or similar values-based or impact criteria when making credit and other financial service decisions. That is perfect. That is just perfect. We also found out that there are. two bills in Oklahoma, Senate Bill 1644, House Bill 4201, that will prevent the use of all social credit scores by governmental entities, political subdivisions, business, or persons.
Starting point is 01:30:19 Fantastic. New bill that is going to be proposed in Wyoming. This is new. One that will be an attack on ESG scores and social credit systems in the state. That bill will be introduced soon, perhaps as early as the end of this week. We know now of five states that are introducing comprehensive bills to stop ESG and social credit scores. So they are Arizona, Kansas, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, and Wyoming. These are the ones that are leading the way and should be considered the gold standard. There are. others that are making really good moves. I don't think they go far enough, but they are trying to divest from anybody using the Great Reset groups like Black Rock because of their
Starting point is 01:31:13 discrimination of fossil fuels and related businesses. Those states, Indiana, Florida, Texas, and West Virginia. Really kind of disappointed in Texas and Florida, quite honestly, I expect you to lead. 14 state officials have sent warning shots to banks and financial institutions about targeting fossil fuel companies in November. It was Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Together, we estimate that there are 20 states now pushing back against ESG in one
Starting point is 01:31:55 form or another, although only five in that group have proposed bills that will tackle more than just the E in ESG. It is important to let your lawmakers know, hey, the S and the G relates to all of us. So does the E. You may not be able to get alone or be denied alone because you're an automaker or somebody that's using gasoline engines, you've got too many trucks that are running for your company that, you know, are not alternative fuels. Well, you may not get that loan. They may not get that loan to do it, but that affects you. How far do you drive to work? That is an ESG question that
Starting point is 01:32:49 concentrates on the E, but it is about you, not a business. We've also been spreading the word among state lawmakers that Heartland has set up an email account specifically for state legislators and other state officials to contact so they can tell us about the work that they're doing to stop ESG scores in their states, or if you have any questions, it's stop ESG at heartland.org. Stop ESG at heartland.org. Stop. ESG at heartland.org. The government relations team at Heartland will continue to work with any state lawmaker or state official who needs help with legislation. All you have to do is reach out and ask.
Starting point is 01:33:33 And just to be clear, Arizona, Oklahoma, Wyoming are the new states on our list, and they are taking on all of ESG. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for listening to this program. Thank you for contacting your house and Senate in your local state. That is the way to do it.
Starting point is 01:33:56 Hold your banks accountable. Now, there was a story in the New York Times. I mean, if I didn't know better, I would say this author read my book, the Great Reset, because, I mean, it is almost word for word. However, the author is for it. So that's why she wrote it. But she said the same things that I'm saying. It's positive.
Starting point is 01:34:28 Now, why would the New York Times run an MMT story at the time when inflation is soaring? Most MMT people are embarrassed right now because inflation is going out of control. However, if you read the book or. you read this argument in the New York Times, it tells you everything you need to know. MMT is modern monetary theory and what it is is we can print as much money as we want. The government doesn't even have to worry about paying it back. It can just print and print and print. If that were true, how come we're just thinking about it now?
Starting point is 01:35:08 How many governments and how many gold coins, clamshells or whatever the else people had, why is this the first time? Somebody's like, you know what? The ocean's full of clamshells. Why don't we just go get all of them? Uh-huh, uh-huh. It doesn't work. Now, MMT, the experts in the article reason that we're seeing too much inflation now,
Starting point is 01:35:35 and it's not because of the Fed and the Democrats printing too much money and spending too much money. No. No, it's that there's not a sufficient, number of controls, i.e. regulations on you and taxes on you to manipulate prices to stop inflation. This is from the New York Times. Ms. Kelton and her colleagues make clear that the pandemic relief packages did not follow one of MMT's key tenants. They did not try to account for resource constraints ahead of time. In an MMT world, the Congressional Budget Office would have carefully analyzed possible inflation ahead of time.
Starting point is 01:36:17 You know, the idiots that get it wrong every time there's a bill. Lawmakers would have tried to offset any strain on available workers and widgets with stabilizing measures and tax increases. The stabilizing measures that she's talking about are price controls and more regulations on businesses. Boy, this sounds like it's going to work, doesn't it? the taxes are not taxes to raise funds because you don't need taxes to raise funds in MMT, right? You don't need to raise taxes to pay for something because you don't have to worry about it.
Starting point is 01:36:52 You can just print more. The Fed can print all the money it needs. Taxes are used like price controls to punish and destroy industries that are deemed to be bad for the economy by central planners. So the idea that the New York Times is proposing is to stop the inflation crisis. We need the CBO to step up, you know, and impose price and labor controls. This is great. I love this because that's never been tried. That is what's coming our way.
Starting point is 01:37:35 That's what the Great Reset is all about. That's what Joe Biden is doing. That's why we're hemorrhaging money and going to have massive inflation for the foreseeable future. The thing that will stop all of this is you saying I'm not going to play this game. I'm not. I'm sorry, but I'm going to stand up in my local state, my local community against ESG. I'm taking my money out of these big huge banks because believe me, the big huge... That's the Fed.
Starting point is 01:38:04 That's the Fed. The Fed is not a part of the federal government. government. It is the big banks. And, you know, when the, oh, the president's nominated another, uh, another Fed chairman and he's got to go in front of the Senate. Really? Really? The president has nominated. Well, that's the president's right. He can't nominate. But he can only nominate from a list of like three people that the Fed chairs approve. Now, I've seen this before. I've seen this in Alabama, we have a document over next door here at the museum from the, I think the 1930s or 50s, when they were like, you're not letting black people vote.
Starting point is 01:38:52 And they're like, no, that's not true. That is not true. Black people can vote at any time in the Democratic Party. Not true. Yes, it is. Here's the way it works. Yes, they can't vote in the white primary because that's a, white primary.
Starting point is 01:39:12 But once we get the primary done, they can choose to vote for that white guy. That's how they did it. We actually have the voting instructions and voter tabulation where it's whites only primary. So pick from these 10 white guys, all you white people. and then when we get one that we want to run, then blacks can vote, sure. Oh, that's exactly what the Fed is. The Fed says,
Starting point is 01:39:49 well, the president can pick, but only from this list. And who picks that list? All the banks. The 12 chairs of the Fed. So all of the banks. They're saying, yeah, we want him. So when the bank,
Starting point is 01:40:07 When the Fed says, you know, the banking sector is really having trouble and we're thinking maybe we should bail them out. They're bailing themselves out. I, this is the biggest scam. This whole, this whole thing that we've created, not what the founders created, but what the progressives created in the last 100 years is the biggest scam. They tell you that, oh, we got to save the banks. That's saving them, not you, them. Now, you know, oh, we're not racist. We're anti-racist.
Starting point is 01:40:45 Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Is that why you're giving crack pipes out to underserved communities, Joe Biden? What? I'm just mad. Honestly, I'm just mad because as a wealthy white man, I have to buy my own crack pipe. I should be on that list, too. They should give them to me, not just those in the underserved.
Starting point is 01:41:10 communities. Unbelievable. Back in a minute. Now, if you, uh, if you, if you, if you really understand what I just said, you might want to plan for the future and call gold line. Your financial house is going to come up against insanity. You think insanity is here. You think inflation is here. Gang, you ain't seen nothing yet. The great reset is here. Now, you're feeling it because the average price is about to break $4 a gallon for gasoline. $4 a gallon. You know what happened in 2008? How expensive was gasoline in 2008 with the final straw to break our back?
Starting point is 01:41:56 Oh, gosh, I don't have it in front of me anymore, but it was $4.15. I thought it was $4.40 or something. Let me get up that high. No, I think it was $4.15. Look, look, maybe you're right. Anyway, we're not far away from that. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 01:42:11 And it's going to go higher and higher and higher. Please consider having some of your investments, some of the money that you have saved in gold or silver. If you don't, if you're like, I don't have a lot of money. Buy silver. It's cheap. If this happens, what I'm saying is going to happen. Gold is going to be worth so much money. Hey, can you break a $10,000 coin?

Starting point is 01:43:26 We did talk about the crack pipes. We did. We did. And we're both upset about it. Very upset. Well, we're just upset. It didn't happen faster. Exactly right.
Starting point is 01:43:35 And it isn't targeting rich white people. Why don't rich white people get safe crack pipes as well? Well, because they, you know, they have so many crack pipes that the government could take one of their crack pipes. pipes and give it to underserved communities. And those rich people wouldn't even notice that one of their crack pipes is missing. Finally, we hit the level of equality we've all been searching for it. There it is. There it is. Redistribution of crack pipes.
Starting point is 01:44:02 By the way, if you haven't heard the story, that's what Joe Biden announced yesterday. But Andrew Cuomo is also reportedly expressing regret over leaving office. Hmm. It doesn't say not leaving office earlier. No. No, he believes he has been vindicated. I mean, this guy is delusional. He's delusional.
Starting point is 01:44:26 His justification seems to be, I guess, they didn't actually press criminal charges from the... Statute of limitations. Well, the woman he groped, right? There wasn't, I guess, enough to... Not enough in his hand. I guess he didn't get enough of a cup. I don't know exactly what he was trying to do there. But very sad story.
Starting point is 01:44:47 And the rumor is now him. and Chris Cuomo are plotting a comeback potentially with a new podcast. Really? Dumb and dumber? Is that what they're going to call it? I mean, I think that name is already taken, but, you know, it applies so well.
Starting point is 01:45:04 Maybe they can work something out. Which one would be dumb and which one would be dumber? Oh, I'm going to leave that up to the experts. The Glenn Back Program. All right. Cuomo is obviously dumb and the other quomo. It's dumb. Dumber, yeah.

The audio book is out of the Great Reset. Read by somebody, I don't even know how they got him. I don't know how they got him. He was, he's very busy and hard to get, just not willing to sit down and do everything. But he took
Starting point is 01:47:04 10 hours in edited time and just read this thing. And he did it. Oh, like it was written by him. Really? It's crazy. His name is Glenn Beck. And he has read the new audiobook, The Great Reset. It's available now.
Starting point is 01:47:23 It actually has extra stuff in it because it's my book and my audio book. And so I added extra stuff. You can check it out now. Get it wherever you get your audiobooks. Okay. I want to tell you the story of Dave. Do we have any spy? Do we have any, I don't know, I don't know, drag net, anything like that? Do we have? How about, how would we just use this? Every just, can you give me the, uh, give me, give me this here, Sarah?
Starting point is 01:47:50 Yeah. Let me tell you about David Murphy. David Maybury. Maybury, David Maybury. He lives on Kent Street in downtown Ottawa. Right there in the heart of the ongoing trucker protest. He'd been told by his media, even his prime minister, that the people involved in that truck convoy were racist, anti-Semitic, conspiracy theorists, hate mongers, bullies. You know the type. So Mayberry, David Mayberry, saw them, watched them for days parked in his neighborhood. He watched these monsters. In the daylight, they honked their horns.
Starting point is 01:48:35 stepped out briefly into the coldest stretch their legs. Then at night? Well, he said they sat quietly in their trucks, having small conversations among themselves and maybe having a cigarette or two. But what were they talking about? Yeah, sure, about how much they hate indigenous people or something like that.
Starting point is 01:48:57 David said, you know, they started looking like they weren't really monsters. So he decided to do what only made. Barry David Mayberry would do he went out to meet his new neighbors in the streets that was ugly no media outlets were there you know talking to the people involved in the protests so David did he did he said he didn't know what to expect he was even afraid I mean how could you blame him somewhere in their truck they had their clan outfit even though the clan has nothing to do with Canada which is really, but that was the American influence, I'm telling you there.
Starting point is 01:49:41 Well, he had conversations, and he's described it as one pleasant conversation at a time. Every stereotype about the truckers was shattered. He realized, wait a minute, they're not racist, they're not radicals, and they're not anti-vaxers. These are people who just didn't want to see their nation designate a whole group of people as the untouchables. Well, David has documented this now in a story you can find in the National Post or whatever they call the newspapers up there. He said as I finally made my way back home after talking to dozens of truckers in the night, I realized I met someone from every province except for Prince Edward Island. They have a deep love for their country.
Starting point is 01:50:29 They believe in it. They believe in Canadians. These are people that Canada relies on to build its influence. infrastructure, deliver its goods, and fill the ranks of military in times of war. The overwhelming concern they have is that the vaccine mandates are creating an untouchable class of Canadians. They didn't make high-flutin arguments from Plato's Republic locks treaties or somebody else's interpretation of Westminster parliamentary systems, which I've read and I love that I could talk
Starting point is 01:51:02 about the parliamentary system for days. Instead, they see their government willing to push a class of people outside the boundaries of society. Deny them a livelihood. Deny them full membership in the most welcoming country in the world. And they said enough. Last night I learned my new neighbors are not monstrous, faceless, occupying mobs. They are our moral conscious reminding us with every blow of their horn, something that we shouldn't have forgotten.
Starting point is 01:51:32 We are not a country that makes enough. untouchable class out of our citizens. Yeah, that's right. That's what he did. That is exactly what he did. Mayberry, David Mayberry. Don't forget that name. This is really the solution.
Starting point is 01:51:50 What he did, you know, we're flirting with Civil War. That was our conversation yesterday. The right and the left, beginning to think the differences are just too big. And ideas are irreconcilable. I mean, I don't know how. we, you know, we're going to end capitalism. Uh, no, we're not. You know, we're just going to have a couple of mandates here.
Starting point is 01:52:12 No, no, no, no, no, no, we're not. No. Uh-uh. There are things that are in the Bill of Rights that we just can't compromise on. And that is true. However, I don't think we're as far as, we are as far apart as everybody says we are. If we would just talk to each other, and that's one of the reasons why they want to make people untouchable. They need to polarize and isolate so you don't talk to them. Because if you do,
Starting point is 01:52:44 you would notice that the majority of Americans, right and left, I should say Democrat, Republican, independent, are good. We're not the country of Twitter. And almost no one is untouchable. And that's a good thing. See, where we are we. really differ. And let me go into Bible country. Stu, can I get an amen? Amen. All right. Now, I normally don't talk about the Bible because my vast knowledge of the Bible is a little intimidating to some, don't you think? That's your level. Yeah. Hallelujah. Yes. So let me tell you the story of Lot from the Gospel of Glenn. What happened? What was the whole Sodom Gimorah thing about?
Starting point is 01:53:39 I mean, what do you get from that? Remember, the angels come and they're like, you know, you can't destroy. What if there's one good guy there? There's not one good guy. But what if there was? All right, go find him. So these angels go down and they go into Sodom Gimorah and they realize, wow, this place is like Sodom Gimorah. It's bad.
Starting point is 01:54:02 and a lot sees them out you know with the people and he's like you guys got to come in here I don't know if he knew of their angels or not I'm only saying that just so you don't feel intimidated by my vast scriptural knowledge but so he's he's like come on in here then there's a knock on the door and it's the mob outside and they're like give us those guys it just came in. We're going to do what Sodom is known to do. Bring him outside. And Lot's like, no. But you can have my daughter. Whoa.
Starting point is 01:54:42 Lot. I'm thinking the angels went, Lot. That's not a good idea. That's, no. No, he's kidding. You can't have his daughter. No, really, you could have my daughter. Just don't take them. No, he's kidding still. So what happens? they start to leave because God's going to destroy the city. And for some reason they said,
Starting point is 01:55:03 and by the way, don't turn around and look at him. And his wife, lo and behold, women, you know what I'm saying? Women. She turns around. She looks at it. She turns into a big statue assault. So what do we get out of this story? First of all, Lott could have been the Mortons of that area.
Starting point is 01:55:25 Okay? you could have been shaving salt off her feet. You could have been maybe, maybe, maybe at her knees. I mean, the kids would cry, oh, mom's lost her feet. Yeah, yeah. But we still have, you know, her head and everything. He could have made a fortune. But did he?
Starting point is 01:55:42 No. First thing I get out of this story. Second thing I get is, wait a minute. Hold on. Why would Lott say, I'll give you my daughter. That doesn't sound like something a dad would say, does it? Or a good dad.
Starting point is 01:56:03 You know, I know there's some dads that are like, hey, 10 bucks. Those are bad dads, not the ones you usually find in the not bursting into flame or turning into a pillar of salt kind of category. You know what I mean? So why would he say that? Why is that in there? And how come the angels were like, you know what? I still think you're a good guy. You were going to just throw your daughter out to the wolves here.
Starting point is 01:56:30 That's there to remind us one thing. You'll notice that the angels, you know, were not there for the, you know, the good, really fun, you know, backdoor entertainment. They were not there for that. And that's what everybody in the town apparently wanted. And I don't know if these angels were hot or what, but that's what they wanted. And it's not enough that they didn't participate. Get this. Not enough that they didn't participate.
Starting point is 01:57:09 It was not enough. They were like, no, no, we're just here to see this guy. I mean, that looks like fun, sure. But I think we're going to pass on that. We're just visiting. No. The mob followed them to Lott's house. It's not okay.
Starting point is 01:57:25 It's not okay. You will participate. What does Lott do? He decides maybe if I compromise, I'll give you my daughter. Do you think that would have stopped the mob? They would have taken his daughter and the two guys. You can't compromise with evil.
Starting point is 01:57:54 You can't compromise with the mob. The mob won't take no for an answer. That's why you can't live in the same place where people say, I just read an article this morning. Gosh, who was it? It was an op-ed piece. And they're like, can we really even live with these people? And they were talking about the people who won't take the vaccine.
Starting point is 01:58:18 Can we really even live with them? Uh, what's the other option? I mean, Surely, to quote George Bernard Shaw, surely everybody knows, you know, a few people that don't deserve to live anymore. No, George, I think that, I mean, maybe you wrote good plays, but I think everybody should remember that that's what you said. Forget about the play thing. That is what they intend. They will not take no for an answer.
Starting point is 01:58:59 So here is the lesson. They'll never coexist. We could have a civil war and say, we could just, we could just say, hey, you pick the first 25. We get Texas, but you pick, okay, the next 25. And we'll just live there. They will not do that because you will comply. And the second thing is, good heavens, man, if you're. your wife is ever turned to salt, just start at the bottom, shave off and sell that salt.
Starting point is 01:59:41 You will be the Mortons of your day. My gosh. What is loud thinking? Patriot Mobile. Full scale assault on truth right now. Your right to speak the truth. From YouTube to Spotify, there is a war. And you will comply or,

Starting point is 02:01:17 Sign up for the free newsletter today at glenbeck.com. Sure. There's been a lot of good news this week. You've got the, you know, Biden administration yesterday releasing $25 billion in the frozen assets and shipping it right over to Iran. You have the crack pipe thing, which everybody loves, free crack pipes for those in underserved communities. You have the needle vending machine that they announced yesterday. Oh, they also have, they want to have half of the population as a labor member. It's all good.
Starting point is 02:02:07 It's all good. What could we do that would brighten your day even more? Have you heard Russell Bran doing his imitation of Brian? and stelter. It's hysterical. Listen. Which sounds great, but not all opinions are created equal. Now, also, you're not only making people not trust you. You're not going to not trust me. Who just wing it, who make it up as they go along. And because figures like Rogan are trusted by people that don't trust real newsrooms.
Starting point is 02:02:36 Well, like, why don't people trust me? They trust Rogan, but I'm perfectly trustworthy. Look how loose my tie-not is. Joe Rogan's irresponsible. He took horse market medicine the other day. Now tell me, sir, And don't tell me anything other than this. Should there be a war? Yes, there should be a war. Interview's done. I'd like to think you'd do that, Joan Rogan.
Starting point is 02:03:04 That whole rant that that came from is hysterical. What is the Russell Brand thing? I don't, he was an actor, right? And then he's now, he's just podcasting. Yeah, he's podcasting. What's his? He's funny. He's really funny. He was comedian, right?
Starting point is 02:03:20 I mean, he kind of came from that background. He's very funny. But he's also just, I think, common sense, generally speaking. He's common sense. Because he seems to be sane on some things. Yes. But then wasn't he also married to Katie Perry, which pushes back against that narrative completely? I mean, sanity is, you know, it's a flow.
Starting point is 02:03:38 It's like the ocean. Eb and flow, ebb and flow. Sometimes the tide's way out. Other times you're like, I'm going to be crushed by this crazy way. So, all right. See it tomorrow on radio. This is the Glenn Back program.
