How Leftist 'Nazi' Rhetoric Is Endangering Trump's Life | Guests: Alan Dershowitz & Carol Roth | 5/28/24

This episode of the Glenn Beck program focuses on the controversial use of 'Nazi' rhetoric in leftist circles and its perceived dangers to former President Donald Trump.

1. The use of 'Nazi' rhetoric in political discourse is dangerous and potentially incites violence.
2. Legal insights from Alan Dershowitz highlight the defamation and danger such rhetoric can pose to individuals.
3. Carol Roth discusses the economic impact of EU regulations, tying it back to broader themes of freedom and governance.
4. The episode calls for a reduction in hyperbolic language to foster a safer and more constructive political environment.
5. The importance of understanding and addressing the root causes of such extreme rhetoric is emphasized.

1. Introduction to the Topic

Glenn Beck introduces the topic of leftist 'Nazi' rhetoric against Trump, outlining the episode's focus on the dangers and consequences of such language.

• Glenn Beck: "Today, we're tackling a highly sensitive and impactful topic—how rhetoric can endanger lives."

2. Legal Perspectives

Alan Dershowitz provides legal insights into the defamation and real-world dangers posed by comparing political figures to Nazis.

• Alan Dershowitz: "Labeling someone a Nazi without basis can lead to severe legal and personal consequences."

3. Economic Implications

Carol Roth explores the economic implications of EU policies influenced by political rhetoric and their effects on American businesses.

• Carol Roth: "EU regulations could force American companies to adhere to standards that stifle innovation and growth."

4. Call for Responsible Discourse

The discussion concludes with a plea for more responsible use of language in political and media discourse to prevent violence.

• Glenn Beck: "We must understand the weight words carry and the real-world effects they can have."

1. Educate on History: Learn and educate others about the historical context and meanings of terms like 'Nazi' to prevent misuse.
2. Promote Responsible Media Consumption: Encourage critical thinking and skepticism when consuming media that uses hyperbolic or dangerous rhetoric.
3. Engage in Civil Discourse: Participate in discussions that promote understanding and respect for differing viewpoints to reduce polarization.
4. Support Free Speech with Caution: Advocate for free speech but also for the responsible use of language that does not incite harm.
5. Report and Counter Misinformation: Be proactive in countering misinformation that can lead to harmful rhetoric by providing accurate information.

A new European law, which goes into effect in 2027, is "the biggest threat to freedom," according to Glenn unless Congress and the president act against it. The law requires companies that operate in the EU and connected companies, even American companies, to abide by outrageous ESG standards. The World Health Organization's attempt to secure massive power has failed for the time being. Author of "You Will Own Nothing" Carol Roth joins to discuss the dangers of Biden's housing regulators teaming up with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Attorney Alan Dershowitz joins to theorize what the jury will decide as closing arguments are being made in Trump's hush-money case. "The Great Reset" co-author Justin Haskins joins to discuss the EU passing a mandatory ESG system that American companies will be forced to comply with. Gillespie County Sheriff candidate Chris Ayala joins to discuss a good sheriff's critical role in standing up for the Constitution.

I have to tell you, I come home now, and Uno is so old. He just kind of lifts his head and looks at me like, yeah, I'm on vacation, man. Uh, the only time he's really up and going is when he eats, uh, rough greens. We put it on his food, and he loves it. I can't even imagine what he, he would be. Honestly, I really believe he'd be wasting away if it wasn't for rough greens in his food. He's a dog, a german shepherd. He's a big animal, and he's eaten, and it's because of rough greens. It given him life and puppiness again when he first started taking it. Roughgreens.com Beck 833. Glenn, 33. Call him now to compromise.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment. Entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We are so glad that you're here. It is Tuesday, but it feels kind of like a Monday. But the good news is four days of work.

We have a story coming up next that I promise you no one else is going to tell you, and it is going to affect all of our lives, all of our bank accounts, and it's no longer.

If it is now 2027 and it is passed in law, and no one is talking about it except us. We do it next. Standby. First, remember when they used to tell you, you know, when you were a kid and you got hurt, rub some dirt on it, you'll be fine. I actually said that to my grandson the other day. Just love, just rub some dirt on his mom looked at me like, what the hell? And I'm like, everybody needs to eat a pack of dirt before they die anyway.

Well, hello, stuff.

Stu
Glenn, how are you?

Glenn Beck
I am great. Glad to be back in the studio.

Stu
Back in the studio?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

I have some good news and I have some bad news. Which do you want first?

Stu
I'm a glutton for punishment, so they'll take the bad news first. Okay.

Glenn Beck
You sure?

Okay, here we go.

Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
This is extraordinarily bad news from the European Union.

This is something that I have been warning listeners and readers about for over three years now. It was included in both the great reset and the dark future books.

We really went into it in dark future talking about this. This can't happen. If this happen, don't this. No, really.

Well, it's just happened. We've talked about it on the air several times, but I don't now. It's official and it's in writing. And so I'm going to explain it and tell you what it is and what it's going to do.

It looked like this bill was going to die several times over the past few months. In fact, Justin Haskins and I had a big argument. I should have made a $3,000 bet with him and then I could have paid you off for the Michelle Obama thing.

But he said it would fail, and it is not. Now, it is one of the biggest threats to freedom in America, both in the short and the long term. Because this law, because of this law in Europe, our society, through corporate decision making and business partnerships, are going to be forced to conform with the european rules, values and environmental standards.

European social justice metrics are now officially they have to be imposed on America through this law. The only thing that will change the change this is if Congress acts and the president acts. This president and this at least Senate, will never stop this.

Here's what's going to happen.

The EU has established an extraordinarily complex, very large ESG system that covers all companies.

And when I say all companies, all companies will need to comply with. This includes both covered companies based in the US, as well as non EU companies such as those in America and Canada that operate in the EU. So in other words, you sell, I think it's half a billion dollars worth of stuff and you have to comply. You sell a half a billion dollars in Europe just under that, then you have to comply.

But so do all of the companies that you do business with. So if you're a small company and you're making widgets and you sell them to a company that is making big money. And I wonder if this applies to Amazon.

You sell something on Amazon that's a company that's making at least half a billion dollars in Europe, you're going to have to comply.

The COVID The covered companies will be required to submit reports to the european government authorities if they are EU based customers or companies with more than 1000 employees and a worldwide turnover of more than $489 million. Turnover is another word for revenue or income.

But why wouldn't you say that? This word bothers me.

I just think it's one of those, it's like stakeholders that nobody notices. And then you hear stakeholders and you know what it means. You're like, oh, crap, that's everybody.

Non EU based companies such as us companies now fall under the requirements if they have a net turnover of more than $489 million with the European Union, franchise and licensing agreements as well as subsidiaries of larger companies will also fall under the EU's ESG regime.

I don't know exactly. The lawyers have not even really explained this yet, but we have been covering this for so long, we think we know what this means. But licensing agreements.

I write books.

Some of them sell in Europe.

Simon and Schuster sells books like crazy. Over in Europe. They're making over 489 million, I'm sure, in Europe.

Am I now forced to comply? Thank God I have Mercury Inc. Now and I don't have to do Simon and Schuster. But am I.

Am I required?

Most importantly, all covered companies will need to ensure that the businesses in their supply and value chains.

I don't know what that means. You know what supply and value chain is, Stu? You're the head of Ford.

Have you checked your value change? What is exactly the numbers on your value change?

What the hell does that mean?

Stu
Value chain or value change?

Glenn Beck
Value chains.

Stu
I mean, I'm very in touch with my value chain. Yeah, on a daily basis.

Glenn Beck
Also, those companies.

Anybody who makes a widget for these companies has to adhere to the relevant ESG rules. Remember, ESG is environmental, social and governance. So do you have enough, you know, gay, the gay black hermaphrodites that only have one leg?

Do you have them on your board? Well, why not? That's your governance part. Social is all of the social justice crap that we've been fighting. And e, of course, is environmental. This bill, by the way, will destroy the petroleum industry. And don't worry, petroleum is not used in anything. Nothing in Megan Petroleum.

This will indirectly impose Europe's ESG standards on countless american companies, including many small businesses, all covered companies will need to create climate change transition plans, prevention action plans.

Establish contractual assurances from a direct business partner that it will ensure compliance with the business's prevention action plan. So you make a widget, but you don't sell it to Ford. You sell it to somebody that is making radios for Ford.

You don't have anything to do with Ford. But if you want to sell a widget to another company that does business with Ford or sell it to another company, that that company sells to another company to sell to Ford, you see how this is working.

And if you don't comply in America, you cannot sell anything.

In Europe, you also establish contractual assurances, business prevention, and make necessary financial or non financial investments or upgrades. The hell does that mean?

Individual countries will write their own laws in accordance with this new EU ESG law. Each country in the EU will be responsible for enforcing its rules and issuing punishments.

Civilian and activist groups also are covered in this bill.

Activist groups can bring private cause of action against companies for failing to meet guidelines.

We'll open up the floodgates for attorneys right there.

The EU requirements are going to be phased in beginning in 2027. Now, let me get into the actual requirements that we can this a very complex and very big bill over the weekend. Thank God for Justin hacks Haskins and his team. He went through all of it. So let me tell you what these rules are. We'll do that in 60 seconds.

We're not selling houses or, you know, helping anybody in Europe sell houses at real estate agentsitrust.com dot. By the way, this law that they just passed in EU, that's how you make everybody broke.

All right, real estate agents I trust.com you're selling your house. Do you have the right agent? You need somebody who is honestly a perfectionist, somebody who is a really hard working worker, who's really working hard to make sure you get the most for your house and then you pay less for the house that you're buying.

A little over a decade ago, I started a company with my brother Robert, and it works with the best real estate agents, in our view. We put them through the ringer in the country. We started with the 500 best, according to the Wall Street Journal. We learned a lot from them, and now we look for those kinds of people. So whether you're moving across town or across the country, or if you just have questions that need answering, we'll help. Realestate agents. I trust.com. realestateagentsitrust.com 10 seconds. Station ID again, we're talking about something that just passed on Friday in the EU that affects us. And it, it's, it's the economy, it's the environment, uh, it's free speech, it's all of it.

So there's not a single long list of specific rules that companies need to comply with. There are some specific rules that are included. However, this new law includes hundreds of vague statements and references to existing international agreements and EU regulations. Many of those are also long agreements featuring many more rules, such as the Paris climate Agreement and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. You know that you're complying, I'm sure. Oh, you're not? I guess we should read up on it.

As a result of the complexity and expansiveness of the rules, the total number of social credit scoring metrics.

Let me say that again. The total number of social credit scoring metrics included in this law is currently unknown, but is likely in the hundreds, if not more than 1000.

It's hard to tell. Currently you get social credit scores. Now let me ask you something.

Is the EU actually going to stop buying everything that comes from China?

Because there's no way China will comply with this.

Do you know what that will do to the prices to the European Union if they stop buying things from China?

And if we don't stop this, if we stop buying things from China prices, you will go broke quickly.

Businesses will go out of business quickly.

Now, here's just one example of the law where it's not economic, it's actually on climate change and free speech.

The directive is an important legislative tool to ensure corporate transition to a sustainable economy. What they're saying, there is no longer a capitalist system, including to reduce the existential harms and costs of climate change, to ensure alignment with the global net zero by 2050, and to avoid any misleading claims regarding such alignment and stop greenwashing, disinformation and fossil fuel expansion worldwide in order to achieve international and european climate objectives. So notice they throw in misinformation.

One law, one law firm notes, companies are required to effectively engage with stakeholders.

Let me say that again.

Companies are required to effectively engage with stakeholders.

Do you remember who the stakeholders are? Because they're not you.

The stakeholders are the governments, the social activists, and I think that's it. And the companies themselves, those three get together because, you know, the Sierra Club is a stakeholder in making sure that our trees are okay and our environment is clean.

The government is just a representative of you. Yeah. Yeah. I stopped believing that a long time ago.

So you're, you don't have a voice. Your voice is the Senate and the House and the, and the president.

That's the stakeholder that they have to deal with. Companies have to sit down when they're making these rules with those guys.

This includes carrying out consultations at various stages of the due diligence process. That's going to be cheap. During which companies must provide, provide comprehensive information.

Now, according to the European Parliament, member states will be required to provide companies with detailed online information on their, of their due diligence obligations via practical portals containing the commission's guidance. They will also create or design and designate a supervisory authority to investigate and impose penalties on any non compliant firms.

These will include naming and shaming. That's a quote.

This will include in quotes, naming and shaming and fines of up to 5% of the company's net worldwide turnover.

Again, worldwide turnover. Why not use revenue?

Additionally, a breach of certain CSD D obligations, this, the, that's the catchy acronym for it, may result in civil liability for damages. However, a company cannot be held liable for any damage caused by its business partners in its chain of activities.

That's the bad news.

I can guarantee you we are at least a year, maybe two years ahead of everyone else. They are not paying attention to this.

Do not dismiss this. When you go in to vote, which candidate is most, and I mean every candidate, is most likely to stand up and say no.

If the United States, a huge market, decides to say, we're not playing your game, Europe will not be able to stand on its own.

China, they'll just give a pass to. Because everybody for some reason thinks that authoritarian state that puts their own people with social credit scores and puts them in camps is okay.

Let me ask you this. Do you think Europe is actually going to have apple pay a fine or stop making its products in China because they're made by slaves?

No, this is a way to look. There is a book over in our museum, very rare, because the king had them all burned. It was during the witch trials over in Europe.

And it was one book that says, this is hogwash. This is just the king wanting these rules so he can get rid of his enemies.

King had them all burned. We can find all kinds of stuff that say witches are real.

That book is extraordinarily rare.

Why the king needed them to go away because he could have anybody who displeased him. He's a witch. She's a witch. Burn him at the stake. That's exactly what's going to happen here. Companies like Apple will be fined Facebook fine doing business over in Europe even though they're working with the Chinese.

But any company that decides to stand and say, no, we don't believe in this, we're not doing this. You're doomed. You're doomed. If you play ball with the government in one way or another, you're all right.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program, a show note.

This Saturday I'm going to be at roll call with Jason Whitlock and some of the best preachers, experts, speakers, entertainers.

Lots of people are going to be there. John Rich is going to be singing as well.

The reason why I agreed to do this is Jason. This is the second year Jason did this. And the whole thing is to remind that no matter what experts or society says, men need to be men.

I'll be speaking about men who stepped up to the plate in dark hours of history and became men that the world needed because men have meaning. You know, I was at a graduation, yes, yesterday. And oh my gosh, the number of women with, you know, the girls as they're graduating, they have all of the chords and the, you know, honors and everything else.

It's, it was like 80% women.

Boys are just like, yeah, whatever.

It is not good. It is not good.

Times make weak men. That's where we've been.

Hard times, which are coming because good times make weak men. Weak men make hard times.

Hard times make strong men, and strong men make good times. So we need some strong men. They just. You just need to just look.

I don't know a single woman. Have you seen those Maybelline ads?

There were maybelline ads for guys putting on makeup. I don't know any woman.

Sarah, do you know any women that, you know, are looking for a man? And you're like, I just want a man who's putting on makeup every day. You know? I don't. No. You don't know anyone? Not a soul. Not a soul. What are you thinking?

First they destroyed our boys, now they're destroying our men.

Now they're. They've moved on to our girls and destroying women.

What do you think's gonna happen?

Stu
Maybe the, uh, the type of man who's putting on makeup. Not all that interested in the female attention that you're talking.

Glenn Beck
No, no, that's not the way they're. I agree with you, but they're not, uh, you know, they're not. They're not really doing it that way anyway. It's, uh, it's role. They're not presenting it that way.

Stu
Sure.

Glenn Beck
You know, be a man with maybelline. No. No.

All right. You can get your tickets to this Saturday's event. I urge you to come. I'll be there. I urge you to come. There's only a couple hundred tickets left. Fearlessarmyrollcall.com. it's in nashville. Fearlessarmyrollcall.com. i would love to see you there. By the way, it's sponsored by preborn.

Also after that, I'm flying from nashville to prague in the Czech Republic.

I'm producing. Kind of a strange time to announce this, but I just want to let you know where I'm going to be next week. I am producing a traditional Christmas album in the spirit of Bing crosby, Andy Williams, Michael Buble. And so Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday, I'll be in the Czech Republic recording with the Prague Symphony Orchestra.

These guys are amazing. So we're laying down all the tracks for the orchestral part.

Stu
Are they aware you can't sing? I mean, why are they.

Glenn Beck
No, I'm not singing. I'm just producing. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not singing. I'm just. I'm just going to be behind the glass going, yeah, that sounds, Scott, that sounds good. Oboe's. You're a little weak, but I'm going to let it I'm going to let it fly.

Stu
You're oboe critical.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. I'm obocritical. Yeah. And then the conductor will look at me and say, there's no oboe's written in this.

That's why they're weak. See, I spotted that.

Anyway, then I come back to the US. Thank goodness. Except I don't know if I can classify it as the US. I still can now, but, I don't know. Later I'm flying back into New York, where I am truly honored to give the keynote address at Michael Harrison's talkers convention. That is a convention for anybody who uses a microphone to inform and entertain in New York City.

Stu
That'd be great.

Glenn Beck
And that's a big honor to host that.

Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
So it's going to be a busy week, so we got that to look forward to. Now, Stu, I didn't get to the good news. You picked bad news over good news? I did, but I have.

Stu
I didn't know it was going to be 40 minutes of bad news.

Glenn Beck
Well, it was bad news. I told you it was really bad news. Yes. Okay, so I have some really good news, but I also have some more bad news. So which do you want this time? Do you want the good news or the bad news first?

Stu
Well, wait, is the bad news tied to the previous bad news?

Glenn Beck
Nope.

Speaker
Nope.

Glenn Beck
This is totally different. Totally different. Bad news? Yeah.

Stu
I mean, maybe we just get all the bad news out of the way.

Glenn Beck
You sure?

Stu
Well, no, not at all. Not at all.

Alan Dershowitz
Sure.

Glenn Beck
And then I don't have any more bad news after this.

Stu
I don't believe you.

Glenn Beck
Well, why? I don't have any.

Stu
We have a bunch of guests coming up. Do they have all good news?

Glenn Beck
They have bad news. But I said I don't have bad news. Schedules the show.

Stu
What?

Glenn Beck
Anyway, so you're picking the bad news. Here it is.

Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
We're in a color revolution here in America. Tomorrow night on the Wednesday night special.

Regime change of foreign nations has been us policy for decades, and we are very good at it. Covert CIA operations to manipulate the media, medal in elections and topple governments go back to the beginning of the cold war. But again, we're now very good at it. In recent years, those operations have been expanded by us, the US, into NGO's and trade unions.

You know, SEIU. Why is SeIu right now in Ukraine? What? What do they have to do with service? Service employees, union. What are they doing there? George Soros. They're all part of color revolutions in the Middle East, Latin America and eastern Europe. In the last ten years, they go in, including our State department, and train and mobilize street movements. They have toppled these regimes. They did it all out in the open. In fact, they even bragged about it.

Well, here's where the bad news starts.

Some of these very same groups and individuals are active now in the United States. Just last week, story about the anti Israel protesters who seized control of the Institute of Politics at the University of Chicago. They have now called for a launching of a nationwide insurgency and domestic terrorism campaign.

In a published statement titled, you look it up for yourself. Bring the Infanta home.

This is just part of the statement.

We must escalate our actions against all governments, institutions, and corporations who participate in profit off of and enable genocide. There must be consequences to their property, income, reputation, privacy, and safety.

Are we in a color revolution?

I believe the answer is yes, and we're about to find it on our streets.

Join me tomorrow night as we look into the underground, the anti Trump cabal that is now threatening our republic.

Stop saying things like, um, well, we're, you know, we're kind of in a revolution. We're in this, we're in that. No, our motto must be, from here on out, save the republic.

I heard something. Do we have that clip from Nick Fuentes or whatever his name is? I don't think they put it. Darn it. They didn't put it on.

He, I know he came out over the weekend and just said, you know, we were on the wrong side. We should have been. We should have been fighting the Soviets, not the Nazis, because, you know, it wouldn't have been as bad, you know, with Hitler. And I'm like, excuse me. And so, and he actually said, so calling Trump Hitler is really not that bad. No. First of all, Trump is not Hitler.

And the second part, Hitler was bad.

Stu
Wow, these are. This is really used to be common knowledge.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, it's not now, and it's infiltrating everywhere. Make sure you don't miss tomorrow night's 09:00 p.m. eastern on blazetv.com. okay.

Want the good news?

Stu
Yeah, sure. Yes. After that, yes, I want the good news.

Glenn Beck
Really good news.

Stu
Here we go.

Glenn Beck
Okay.

The World Health Organization, the who proposed the pandemic treaty.

Now, what the pandemic treaty was, was giving the power to the who to be able to override all laws. If they said it was a pandemic and you had to put everybody in their houses, you could not not comply. Okay.

They hoped that a final draft treaty could be agreed upon in its yearly meeting of health ministers, that it starts today. However, it was rejected after two years of closed doors meeting in Geneva, Switzerland. It is off the table, at least for now.

Remember, the League of Nations was off the table until the war, and then it went on the table, then it got off the table, and then it changed into the United nations. So we have to keep our eye on this. But this is a huge, huge victory. Huge victory. And I think it's coming from really, honestly, did you see the email?

What was it, the text from Peter Dantzic to, I think, Anthony Fauci or somebody, and he said, this isn't going to be a problem unless Rand Paul finds out.

Stu
Yeah, I just see that.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Reads it and he's like, so is it a problem yet?

Yeah, it's starting to be. All right, back in just a second. 1st let me tell you about the burn and launcher. You know, you have to declare a lot of things when you're traveling on a plane, guns, ammunition, knives, swords.

I mean, I don't think you're allowed to fly with, I don't know, an undeclared thumb war. That was a, you were participating in an undeclared thumb war. You are not on this plane, you know, unless you're a hermaphrodite with maybe two legs missing, I don't know. But one thing you don't have to declare that could save your life or the life of somebody you love is a burn, a launcher. It is a non lethal alternative to safeguarding your home that will send potential threats running in the opposite direction. It is legal in all 50 states. No permits, no background checks are required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18.

You can pack it in your checked luggage without the need to declare it as a firearm. Making it the airport experience, you know, less than nothing makes it okay anyway. There are times when nonlethal is really the way to go. The burn and launcher as powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60 foot range, one shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. Berna byrna.com glenn.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Glad you're here. Donald Trump is in court today. His defense now delivers its closing arguments. This is going to be tough because the judge has disallowed so many actual facts that, you know, I hope he can. I hope he can just tie it up, clearly, because they're everything that was testified to there. Well, Jonathan Turley, there's no case.

There is no crime.

And all of the defense was, was not serious or, sorry, the prosecution.

And then in the defense, I mean, I think this thing, if you can't find one person to say no on this one in New York City, that's saying a lot.

But one of the, I think this will be overturned just on this. Bradley Smith, he's the former FEC commissioner, the chairman. Okay, that's the Federal election commission.

The judge, he was going to testify that even if there were a campaign contribution, which there wasn't, it would not have been needed to be filed until after the election, which completely destroys the idea that this was an influence campaign to try to influence the election.

Stu
Because remember, they're not saying the crime is the COVID up of the affair.

Glenn Beck
Right?

Stu
What they're saying is the crime is the business records manipulation that happened after he was already president. And they're trying to say that business records manipulation somehow influenced the election that had already occurred and was over. It makes no sense.

Glenn Beck
The FEC has already turned the case down.

A state court cannot prosecute a federal crime.

Stu
Correct.

Glenn Beck
Okay, this, this is, this is the.

Stu
They're not even trying to. No, they're just acting as if it should have been prosecuted. But they won't even say directly which crime it is.

Glenn Beck
Right. It won't. You won't.

Stu
It's incredible.

Glenn Beck
You won't know. That jury will not know what crime he's supposed to have committed.

Stu
Right. Because, again, this has to tie to a separate crime, or we're already past the statute of limitations, and it's a misdemeanor anyway. So to turn it into a felony, one that is within the statute of limitations, they have to tie it to another crime. But they haven't told anyone what the crime is.

Glenn Beck
It's. It's really incredible. This is the biggest injustice. This is really bad. This is what Soviet Union used to do. Turley has a great op ed on this. Jonathan Turley.

He said, you know, every case is a three legged stool, and all three have to be strong. And he said, there are no legs. There. No legs. He said, in the end, we are all standing on that wobbly stool. When the government seeks to convict people without evidence or even a clear crime, if we allow a conviction, it is more than a stool that will collapse in this Manhattan courtroom. Speaker one.

Stu
And look, this will be probably overturned, but that doesn't matter in some ways when it comes to what the ramifications are.

Glenn Beck
Courts and the jury can do this in New York, can anyone who is unpopular get a fair trial?

Stu
We have to get into the politics of this too, because, I mean, it's fascinating to think about, like, in some ways, even if he gets a conviction and they're like, well, you're fined, right?

I mean, do the american people care at all? I feel like there's a good chance they just have already priced this in.

Glenn Beck
I think so. But if he is convicted, I don't, I'm not sure that's been priced in because the case has been so weak. Even CNN is saying there's, there's this, this is really falling apart. This is a big nothing burger.

I don't think we've priced in a conviction yet. The Glenn Beck program, let me tell you about covenant eyes, because covenant Eyes is for people that want to stop looking at pornography. Pornography is rampant in our culture. It is destroying lives, marriages, entire families, and it is as addicting as heroin. It lights up the same parts of the brain as heroin, and it's very hard to quit if you or somebody in your life is experiencing this. The victory app by covenant eyes can help. It's a powerful tool for christians who are serious and want to quit porn for good or never start in the first place.

You install the victory app on your devices. It runs silently in the background, notifying the person of your choice if your online behavior doesn't match your goals. It's like AA. And having a sponsor recovering from addiction is a journey. Please, please, please start your path to recovery or never going there.

Welcome to the Fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, here's something fun.

How do you feel about spending a couple more trillion dollars?

You know, just, I think just for an election.

Now, this isn't any big deal. This will work. Look, what Biden is now suggesting is that we have Freddie, what is it? Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac get back into giving more taxpayer backed consumer loans to people who can't afford a loan, which.

Oh, that sounds familiar. Didn't we do that before?

I'm trying to remember. I don't think that worked out real well.

More trouble on the horizon from the Biden administration.

We'll tell you all about it with Carol Roth in 60 seconds. First, I bet you have some awesome guns. Maybe you have an arsenal. Oh, my gosh, do you have an arsenal? You're a criminal. What? I'm what?

You need to make sure that you are proficient with all of your guns, because, you know, what is the, what's the point of having a gun if you can't shoot it? You could shoot yourself. You could shoot somebody else. You need practice. But practice by going to the range, using up ammunition, time consuming, really expensive, and every time I fire a real bullet, I'm like, well, am I going to be reliable? Place that someday. It's high tech, easy to use, it's widely used by the military. It started, I think, with the marines. And it will help you improve your shooting quickly. You attach it to your firearm, connect it to your app or smartphone on tablet or via bluetooth. Then whenever you are firing actual rounds or even dry fire, practice in your house, it will give you instant feedback on what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong, and most important, how to correct your technique. It's fantastic. Be a responsible gun owner. Increase your confidence and confidence today with Mantis x. Get yours mantisx.com. that's mantisx.com.

carol Roth, the author of that book, you will own nothing, which is ridiculous. How would you possibly bankrupt people so they would have to sell everything or couldn't afford it and have it taken, taken away from them? I mean, you'll owe nothing by 2030.

What a ridiculous idea. Hello, prophet. Carol Roth. How are you?

Carol Roth
I thought I was a conspiracy theorist, Glenn, but I'll take profit slash conspiracy theorist.

Glenn Beck
Speaker one. Isn't it amazing, Carol? Every day. Every day I see something. Just McDonald's. You go to McDonald's.

This is how you have a country that owns nothing because they no longer can afford to buy anything.

Anything.

Speaker one.

Carol Roth
Yeah, it's so frustrating when I read this in the media, the corporate press, all of a sudden waking up and saying things like, oh, fast food is in, restaurants are more expensive than ever and people can't afford them. It's like, wow, that's a giant shock to me. Who's been telling you this for years and years based on the fiscal and monetary policies of this country?

Glenn Beck
You know, it's more frustrating to me is the fact that we know that they're wrong. We've seen that they're wrong over and over and over again. They're lying to us and saying we're conspiracy. And then when it turns out to be right, they announce that it's suddenly true and right, and then people go back to them for the answer on how to solve it. It's crazy, right?

Carol Roth
It's the arsonists who are burning down your house, and then they bring a water bottle and say, hey, I'm going to help put out the fire and rebuild it. It is frustrating. And the gaslighting, when we're telling people what it is that they're going to experience or what they are experienced from the Biden administration, from the press saying, no, no, you don't. You just don't understand. You're just not smart enough. People are experiencing this every day. It's just like an extra gut punch.

Glenn Beck
Talk to me about Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. This.

This was one of the biggest collapses during 2008. But if I'm not mistaken, it wasn't really taken that way because the federal government, we, the taxpayers, foot the bill for that one. So they didn't actually fail, but they did.

Carol Roth
So do you remember the scene in after trading places when Randolph and Mortimer Duke went bankrupt? And then they pop up and coming to America and Eddie Murphy hands them this wad of cash, and all of a sudden, Randolph says, Mortimer, we're back.

I feel like this is the exact same thing that's going on with Freddie Mac. And certainly if it happens with Freddie Mac, it gains acceptance. It's going to happen with Fannie Mae. So right now, these two government sponsored enterprises, based on what happened out of the great financial, great recession, financial crisis, they were put into conservatorships with the FHFA as well as the treasury. So they've been watching them and making sure that, you know, they don't do anything risky. Right. Well, now, Freddie Mac had this great idea because people have so much equity in their homes. Let us go ahead and offer second mortgages.

Now, you have to remember that these government sponsored enterprises, Freddie Mac, and, you know, as well as Fannie Mae, the whole point of them is to, you know, extend credit, make sure that people can get into housing. But second mortgages don't get you into housing. Those are consumer loans. Those are people taking money out of their homes and using them for whatever it is. And that equity is perceived equity. Right. Because they haven't cashed out the house. They haven't sold the house, they haven't cashed out. So they don't have that guaranteed. They just think that it happens to be today worth this, this much money and they put a loan against.

Glenn Beck
Wait, let me make a case for this because I did a lot of thinking on this a couple of years ago.

Some people that may be good for other people.

Horrible. Or do you think it's always horrible?

Carol Roth
Well, here's what it is. It's taking the money out of your, your home, the equity that you have, the ownership that you have, and saying, okay, no longer I have this ownership, now I have the pile of cash. So what are you doing with that cash? Are you using it to reinvest? Because right now that's very expensive to do. We're not in zero interest rate environment. So, you know, if you're paying even on a second mortgage, eight or nine or whatever percent it is, how are you going to get a better return on that? It seems to me that that is people taking their wealth, their ownership and going and blowing it and spending it.

Glenn Beck
That's what will happen. That's what will, that's what will happen. I mean, second mortgages to pay down like a credit card at 25%, I'd rather pay nine than 25.

Carol Roth
Sure, sure. But obviously we would rather to use other money if we can. Yeah, taking down your ownership. So obviously it is specific to everyone. But overall, I think we have to ask ourselves, if few questions here. One, why is it that the taxpayers should all of a sudden back consumer loans? Why is it that we want to encourage more consumer debt spending, particularly during a time of inflation? And why do we want people to reduce the ownership, the equity in their homes, I guess. And so, sure, please do, because I.

Glenn Beck
Got to guess, because I am a helper and if you reelect me, I can help you with all of your troubles. Um, but the other guy, he's not going to help you with that. I'll, I'll help you get a loan so you can do the things you need to do, invest in your business and pay down your loans. And a lot of people are struggling even to pay for food. So I'll help you.

Speaker one.

Carol Roth
Bang, bang, bang, bang. We have an election around the corner and obviously we've seen Biden try to do this cancellation of student loan debt. And, you know, that is not working out as well as he had hoped, although he keeps pushing it. So now how do we make people who are maybe struggling financially feel like they're wealthier, feel like they have more cash in their hands? Oh, we'll let them take this, you know, quote unquote equity out of their homes, which is buying boats, which is increasing consumer spending, which pushes up the GDP, which we know is, you know, faltering based on last quarter. So all of these things make him look like the economy is doing better, by the way, also likely highly inflationary that we're adding consumer spending into the mix here. So this is being proposed and.

Glenn Beck
Hang on, hang on just a second. And more inflation makes it harder for you to buy things later.

You've got now a second mortgage and you're going to be in the same situation you were in. If you spend that money to do anything other than pay off very high interest rates, you take a loan out and do anything with it. When the, because this won't happen until after the election, I mean, you will feel the effects. But I'm telling you, inflation next year is going to be insane.

Do you agree with that?

Carol Roth
Well, particularly if these programs that he's pushing continue.

Glenn Beck
Right.

Carol Roth
So if this, if FHFA comes back and says, sorry, we're not going to do this, which one of the things is pretty interesting here and it goes back to this election thesis, is normally when you have a rule like this that pops up, there's a comment period. And that comment period is about six to twelve months depending on a variety of factors. Do you know what the comment period on this was, Glenn? Speaker one, two weeks, 30 days. 30 days, 30 days, which again goes back to say there is an urgency of why it is they're trying to push this through. Now, I'll add something else super fun in here. So in addition, so if Freddie Mac does this, there's no reason why Fannie Mae is not going to try to do this. But they're under conservatorships. Right. So how do they really expand this market? You know, which is, you know, right now it's a decent sized market, but this could expand, you know, up to, for both of those agencies, maybe 2 trillion, I've heard maybe four to 5 trillion with, of capacity. How do they, how do they extend that? Well, they could. Then if the conservators, which again is FHFA and the treasury say, okay, you're no longer under conservativeship, they can go back to securitizing these. Does this sound familiar? That means that they take a bunch of these secondary mortgages, they package them together into a new security and they sell them into the market. And these were the same types of securities, if you recall, which started the whole ball rolling with the great Recession, financial crisis.

So nothing to see her, guys. I'm sure this will work out really well. And I'm super excited for taxpayers to back consumer loans. You're not even backing first mortgages. You're now backing consumer loans. Way to go. Really glad that the government wants to.

Glenn Beck
Get into that again. It is estimated to be $2 trillion. However, you and I both know. Aha. Uh, it could go as high as $5 trillion. Don't just think of that as your debt that we need to pay.

Think of it at this way as well.

That's two to $5 trillion being dumped into the economy.

What do you think will happen to the value of the dollar and your buying power?

$5 trillion out of thin air.

Carol Roth
Speaker two.

It's insane. And at a time when we have the Federal Reserve, who is frustrated with their, their fight to their attempt to fight inflation and the government continuing to spend like drunken sailors, no disrespect meant to the drunken sailors. Then you keep having these consumer stimuluses. And this is what happened with the Biden administration when they came out, you know, right out of the gate a few months later and they did direct consumer stimulus. It's in the name stimulus. It stimulates the economy. That is the intention. And the same thing here. If you take money that is locked up in homes and all of a sudden you unlock that. And again, it's theoretical money because if the price of houses end up going down in that area, then they make, they could end up being underwater and, you know, be in real financial trouble. So this is theoretical dollars that they have that they're going to take out and use the dollars to spend in the economy. It artificially inflates the GDP. It makes everything look like the consumer is doing much better, and it absolutely will eat away at your purchasing power. Devalue your labor. Devalue your wealth. Once again, it is the same cycle repeating for political purposes.

Glenn Beck
Carol, I'd love to have you on again later this week because there's a couple of other things that are affecting small businesses and independent workers again, you know, so you will own nothing, but you'll be happy. Apparently, we're going to. Can, can I invite you back later this week?

Carol Roth
I always happy to be back with you.

Glenn Beck

I have to tell you, I've been doing my pillow commercial here, but I have to tell you, when I got, Tanya came and she came home and I didn't know she ordered new pillows. And I was like, where is my pillow? Because I sleep on my pillow every night and I love it. And she got the new mypillow, the 2.0. And it's different than the 1.0. And I slept on it. And I'm like, or I put it. And I was like, honey, this is not the same.

I have to tell you, I have been sleeping on these things now for a week, and I wake up with, I haven't turned. I wake up in exactly the same position I went to sleep in. That's never happened in my life. But I will tell you, I am on drugs because of the eye surgery. I. The doctor prescribed. You ready, Stu? Stand back for this.

The doctor prescribed ibuprofen 600. Wow. She knew the 800 would be too much. Yeah. Yeah. And so she was like, ibuprofen 600. And don't take too much of it. Right. You know, I've been flying high on ibuprofen.

Stu
I could tell something was going on. I thought you just had a crazy night. Ibuprofen.

Glenn Beck

We have Alan Dershowitz on with us in just a few minutes to talk about the Donald Trump trial because Donald Trump's lawyers, their closing arguments are today. This thing is insane. We'll talk about it in a second. And tomorrow night on the Wednesday night special, are we in a color revolution? I believe we are.

The US policy on regime change has been, you know, in effect for decades. It started with the cold War, but now these operations have expanded by the US into ngo's, trade unions, people like George Soros. So now it's not just the government. And there were all part of color revolutions in the Middle East, Latin America, eastern Europe. Remember I said long time ago, it will start in the Middle east, it will go to Europe and then come here to America and sweep and topple America.

We are there, I believe, and I'm going to show you the evidence of it. And who is you'll, you'll know who's going to be marching in the streets this summer and why and who's paying for it before it happens.

Are we in a color revolution? Join me tomorrow night as I look into the underground, the anti Trump cabal that threatens our republic. May God save the republic. That's tomorrow night at 09:00 p.m. eastern on blazetv.com. okay, this Trump trial we're going to start talking about here in just a second. But it is, it's amazing to me and sad that I think there's maybe a 50% to 70% chance that it'll be a hung jury.

Stu
Really?

Glenn Beck
That's what I'm optimistic. That's what I'm hoping for when this is a case that just screams Soviet Union.

Every expert, even on CNN, they're all saying, there's nothing here. There is nothing here.

Stu
This was very weak at the beginning, and it's gone weak, poorly for the prosecution.

It's hard to, I think it's almost impossible to deny. Even if you hate Donald Trump.

Glenn Beck
I mean, that's the question. Will the jury hate Donald Trump more than they believe in equal justice for all under the law?

Stu
I think there's real possibility of that.

Glenn Beck
I do, too.

Stu
And, you know, if you think about the way maybe a Manhattan voter has been taught over the past years, here's a man who's literally Hitler. The only way we can keep him out of the presidency is by you guys doing something. And I think there's definitely going to be some jurors there that think that way.

Glenn Beck
You ever been on a jury?

Stu
No, I meant when I got called for jury duty, I mentioned that I worked for Glenn Beck, and they immediately let me go.

Glenn Beck
I was Glenn Beck, and they let me on. I don't know how the judge just, he shook his head when they were like, he's good. He just shook his head like, you have no idea what you just did. Right. Anyway, the, when you're in the jury, you ask the judge questions all the time. Can you ask the judge if we can see this? Can you ask the judge if we can see this? We asked the judge for advice, and he's like, I can't give you any advice. I can't give you this information. But you look at him as the guide, right? If this judge is as corrupt as I think he is on this particular case there, I mean, it's almost impossible not to convict.

Stu
And the impression that the judge has given over and over again is that the defense have been the bad guys.

Glenn Beck
Right?

Stu
You know, the defense witnesses have been the bad witnesses.

You know, I mean, over and over again, he's tilted the playing field that direction.

Glenn Beck
And we'll ask Alan Dershowitz about the closing arguments and what does the joke, is there any cap on the judge when it comes to instructions?

Speaker
Stand up, Glenn Beck.

Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck
This is amazing. There's a story that's coming out and just, in fact, I think it just came out. Yes. This morning, the Biden Harris campaign will hold a press conference with special guests outside of the Manhattan criminal courthouse.

I don't know when, but I mean, they, you want to talk about something to affect an election, they are sure.

Stu
Acting like they know the result of this, aren't they? I don't know how they would. I mean, but it's, they are sure acting like they know what's going to happen.

Glenn Beck
Alan Dershowitz, welcome to the program. How are you, sir?

Alan Dershowitz
I'm doing great. I'm very concerned about what's going on in the Manhattan courthouse today because it could hurt America more than it could even hurt Donald Trump. This is the weakest, worst case I have seen in my 60 years of practicing law. And because it's New York and because this is a jury of New Yorkers and a judge, there might be a conviction here. It would be a horrible, horrible blemish stain on the american justice system if that were to happen.

Glenn Beck
You know, Jonathan Turley wrote a great article. I don't know if you saw it, about this trial. And the last, the last line is something along the lines of, you know, three legged stool. And in every court case, and, you know, this is the most wobbly without a leg to stand on. He said, it's not Donald Trump standing on that stool. That is, that, that's something that's going to affect all of us deeply. And I don't even know what it means. If, if a court like this can, can find any man guilty like this because he's unpopular, where is Justice Alan?

Alan Dershowitz
Or because he's too popular? In this case, it means that we're becoming more like we're not there, but more like Stalin and Lavrenti Beria's Soviet Union, where Beria said to Stalin, show me the man and I'll find you the crime. Look, I wrote a book called Get Trump. That's the only explanation for this case going forward, a desire to get Trump. The people, the prosecutors, campaigned on the pledge to get Trump. They said they would find a crime. They couldn't find a crime because there is no crime. So they made one up. They put an expired misdemeanor together with some thought crimes, and they came up with an absurd felony in this case.

And then they had to use as their main witness a guy who has a long, long history of lying, stealing. And they have to depend on his credibility to prove that Trump actually knew that these payments were being made and were being listed as legal payments rather than as reimbursement for a non disclosure agreement. The most absurd.

Glenn Beck
I wonder if, if Cohen will even be charged with a crime he admitted under oath that he stole. No.

Alan Dershowitz
Yeah. I was hoping for a, for a Perry mason moment.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Alan Dershowitz
Where when he said that on the witness stand, the police would come in and put the handcuffs on him and take them away. But that didn't happen. It should have.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Tell me. I was on a jury once, and the judge, we kept asking him and he would come in and he'd say, I can't tell you anything. I can't tell you that. We'd ask the bailiff, can we get this from the judge, et cetera. And the judge, I don't know. He was in a position of power and he really seemed like our friend and really seemed like we could trust him to make the right decision. You know what I mean?

Alan Dershowitz
And that's real problem with our system of justice. This judge, for example, is a benevolent despot. When the jury is there, he's so nice. He's to the jury. But as soon as the jury goes out, and I was in the courtroom, I was one of the only spectators allowed to stay in the courtroom. When he emptied the courthouse, the courtroom of all reporters, then his true sense came out. He looked like us.

Remember the psycho and taxi driver?

Speaker
You talking to me?

Alan Dershowitz
You looking at me? You talking to me? That's what he was basically saying to the witness. He hated the fact that the witness raised his eyebrows or, you know, stared at him and he threatened to strike the witnesses testimony. The jury should have seen that. And by the way, the american public should have seen the whole case, should have been on television. So, Alan, the fact that it isn't on television is terrible.

Glenn Beck
The thing here with the judge, he gives the instructions.

Yeah. How, how horribly could that go wrong with him? Or can, is, are there some limits to what he gives as instructions?

Alan Dershowitz
The limits come in the court of appeals, and that might come only after the election, for example. The crucial instruction is going to be, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the prosecution should have, could have caused, called Alan Weisselberg. He was the other person at that alleged meeting where the crime occurred. And the only other witness at that meeting was Cohen, who you shouldn't believe, but Weisselberg could have been called. The prosecution didn't call him. They could have given immunity if he had pleaded the Fifth Amendment. But they didn't do it. And you should therefore infer that had they called him, he would have given testimony adverse to the prosecution.

Glenn Beck
But he can't say that in the closing. He can't say that in closing arguments, right?

Alan Dershowitz
He can if the judge allows that instruction to be given. If I were the defense attorney, let me tell you what I would do.

I would get a life size picture of Alan Weisselberg. I would put it in the witness stand and I would say, ladies and gentlemen, you see this picture. That's all you're going to see, just the picture, because the prosecution made a decision not to call this witness. And when you go in that jury room, I want you to be thinking of that picture. I want you to think of why only a picture and not the real witness appeared in this courtroom. And no. Would the judge allow that? I don't know. I would try it, certainly.

Glenn Beck
And he can't say. He cannot bring up that the FEC was not allowed to.

Alan Dershowitz
No, he's not going to be able to bring that up. There's a lot of things he can't bring up. He wasn't allowed to introduce an expert witness who is the country's leading expert on the FEC. The jury is going to be allowed to conclude that maybe this was an election fraud, even though the experts say it wasn't. So there's a lot of problems with this case.

Glenn Beck
Alan, what does your gut tell you that's going to happen after the closing arguments on both sides?

Alan Dershowitz
My gut says possibly hung jury. Let me tell you why. I was in the courtroom and I was watching the jurors very carefully, and I couldn't tell whether they were inclined toward conviction or acquittal. What I could tell is they didn't seem to like each other that much. They didn't seem to have a close relationship, which sure, sometimes happened. And that is more, that inclines one to think that maybe they won't agree, maybe they'll be hung jury, but we won't know.

Glenn Beck
Alan, thank you so much. I know you're a busy, busy man. Thank you. God bless you.

I guess that's good news. But it's weird. The dynamics in a jury room is weird. Unless you've ever sat on a jury in a serious case, you really kind of don't know.

It's, you know, people do defied themselves and they become teams. And if they don't like each other, New Yorkers, because people are people, you know, and if one side is, you know, going after somebody and he's like, I'm not changing. Sorry. Not changing.

Even if it's just out of, you know, spite.

Justin Haskins
Yeah.

Stu
You know, I don't know. Maybe let me let some of the optimism seep in here for just a moment.

Glenn Beck
That was optimistic. Speaker one.

Stu
I know, I'm trying to play along here a little bit. Like 30 some odd percent of New Yorkers voted for Donald Trump, right?

And while we all know the odds are you walk up to any individual New Yorker, they're going to hate Donald Trump.

Donald Trump and his team of attorneys had an opportunity to get rid of a lot of people they thought would be problems. I mean, they allowed twelve people in that they believed at least had the opportunity to be won over. And if you have just the average person who's not a partisan on either side look at the evidence in this case, you would think they would at least, at least some of them would come to the conclusion that this is nonsense.

Glenn Beck
Then again, you had Robert De Niro on the streets in front of the courthouse.

Stu
You see, this is, this was the big special guest for the Biden.

Glenn Beck
I don't know.

Stu
Yeah, I don't know.

Glenn Beck
Was it?

Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Um, he's declaring that Donald Trump is a tyrant, uh, that, uh, if he gets into office, he'll never leave the White House.

I mean, it is, and, and it is time to finally stop Donald Trump. These, I have to tell you, uh, I would have private security if I were Donald Trump. Along with secret service.

I might even dump the Secret Service. Um, I.

These people are mad. They're just, it's madness that's going on. And if you really believe because of the campaign that he's Hitler, then anything is called for. I mean, how many times have you had the discussion, even when you were a kid, if you go back in time and kill baby Hitler, would you do it?

You know, I mean, you'd wait till.

Stu
He'S an annoying teenager, then you go for it.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. You just leave a gun on the counter next to mom.

He's a teenager.

Stu
At some point, she'll be ready to use it.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, at some point. All right, back in just a second.

Joseph wrote in about his dog's experience with rough greens. That was my answer, by the way, because that way I wasn't guilty of murder, even if it was a bad.

Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Anyway, Joseph says, my beagle is 17 years old, and he was sleeping 20 hours a day, wasn't active. I was afraid he was going to die soon. I tried rough greens. 20 days later, I'm amazed he's wagging his tail again. I know he's happier. His food and rough greens are gone. Every day. He's eating well and more active. I'm amazed by rough greens. Thank you so much for giving me my buddy again, Joseph. Thanks for writing in. Rough greens is not a dog food. It's a supplement that you put on the dog's food. It was. It was developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black. Remember, brown food is dead food. You want the green stuff. The folks at red, at rough greens are so confident that your dog, your dog is going to love it that they have a special deal for you. Just go to rough greens. Ruff greens.com Beck or call 833 glenn 33. They're going to give you your first trial bag for free. Free. All you pay for is shipping. Eight, three, three. Glenn 33 roughgreens.com Beck this is the Glenn Beck program has just gone insane.

And please make your motto save the republic or God save the republic, because there are people that are saying, we need to get away from this on our side. We need to get away from this. You know, this isn't working because we're not God fearing people. Well, no, no, we're not. But, uh, maybe we should work on that and keep the constitution and bill of rights and stay away from any kind of, you know, religious authority or any kind of despot kind of authority. If. If Donald Trump got in and he started breaking the constitution, doing things on unconstitutionally, I'd be with everybody on the left saying no.

Stu
And I think when you say your slogan God save the republic from outdoor transmission of Covid-19 in the year 2024, is that is the rest.

Glenn Beck
What is that? I don't.

Stu
Because I was watching the Robert De Niro campaign event for Joe Biden out front of the courthouse, and he walked up to the microphones with a Covid mask on outdoors.

Glenn Beck
Now, well, he didn't want to be around crowded, you know, crowd of people.

Stu
Well, then he took it off to do the speech around much more, far more people. All of which, by the way, were not wearing masks as they walked up. He was the only one wearing a mask.

Glenn Beck
So he's the only one that's still nuts.

Stu
I wouldn't say that.

Glenn Beck
Okay.

Stu
I would say there's many more people in Manhattan that are nuts, but he is the only one wearing the mask.

Glenn Beck
That's crazy.

Stu
And this is despite, you know, the fact that the New York Times has even written there has never been a case of outdoor Covid-19 transmission outside of close conversation. So really wearing a mask outside, not beneficial in any way. And has never, even the mainstream media has admitted this going back five years.

Glenn Beck
Almost at this point, he's gone, he's gone insane. He is sitting here and he's talking about, you know how Donald Trump is a, is a dictator. He's going to never leave the White House. Now let me ask, lifetime dictator, do you remember what happened with Gabby Giffords and Sarah Palin said she's targeting this district, a madman went because I think he was grammar. He was grammar.

Stu
He was obsessed with grammar.

Glenn Beck
Grammar. And he shot Gabby Giffords and the media said it's the language. Look at what they're teaching the american people. They are teaching him he's never going to leave. He's a lifetime dictator. He's going to destroy the country and democracy. He's got to be stopped by any means necessary.

What do you think the message that's being received to crazy people, they'll, they'll kill this guy if they can't get him in prison. I think somebody on the left will kill this guy.

This is madness and it has to stop.

Stu
Speaker one and this is just the beginning. They're just starting to embrace this thing. There's a big story this weekend. I can't remember the New York Times or Politico somewhere where they were talking about the strategy related to this trial and previewing what we saw here with Robert De Niro today, that this is going to be a big push. And it almost, I mentioned this earlier, almost seems like they know the outcome.

Glenn Beck
Wait, wait until tomorrow night on my specials. You say you know that you're seeing the stuff that Biden is doing. That's the stuff out loud.

You should see the stuff that's happening and churning beneath the surface for this campaign.

It is, it is horrific that just, just last week there was a story about the anti Israel protesters who seized control of the Institute of Politics, University of Chicago. They have now called for terrorism. This summer we might, I'm quoting, we must escalate our actions against all governments, institutions and corporations who participate in profit off and enable genocide. There must be consequences to their property, income, reputation, privacy and safety.

And the government is doing nothing.

Why are we in a color revolution?

That's tomorrow night at 09:00 p.m. eastern on blazetv.com dot. You must be prepared for what this summer and fall is going to bring.

We're going to give you a taste of it with all of the evidence tomorrow night, 09:00 p.m. eastern, big blackboard coming out. I'm feeling a blackboard. Are we in a color revolution?

The Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America. Welcome to the Glen Beck program. We're so glad that you're here.

There is something that happened over the weekend. We spoke about it earlier.

But I want to talk to Justin Haskins. He's my co author of the great Reset and Dark Future.

And he is, he and his team spent a lot of time at the Heartland Institute, Socialism for Socialism. He's a research center director there. And what happened in Europe in the last few days is something that we all need to know because it will affect every one of us in America, Canada, all over the world. Well, probably, except for China, who's just going to get a pass for some reason. But we'll talk about that in 60 seconds. Stand by.

All right, listen, we talked to you last hour about Freddie Mac.

Freddie Mac is a government backed institution. That was one of the reasons why we had the crash in zero eight, a big one, because they would give loans to people that couldn't get loans anywhere else for a reason. Well, Joe Biden has now decided that, you know, just before the election, he's going to give out second mortgages. It could be as much as $5 trillion of your money being backed up for people giving people loans so they can spend it in the economy. You want to get a second mortgage, pay off your debt. That's good. If you can get a, you, you know, 6% mortgage over a nine or a 25% mortgage. Absolutely.

But now the government is doing it, $5 trillion, and most people that get it are going to dump it into the economy. What do you think that's going to do to the dollar and inflation? We are already spending out of control $1 trillion every 100 days. Please, I beg of you. I beg of you, please find out if gold or silver is right for you.

I don't know if you've seen the price of gold and silver and all of the other things that people are counting on. Bitcoin going through the roof.

Why? Why? Because my grandfather used to say, if we only knew what the rich people knew. Well, what are the rich people and what are the central banks of the entire world doing? They're buying gold.

Please go to lear capital right now. Find out. Get a free wealth protection guide. I beg you to do this. Just 10% of what you might have saved. 800. 957 gold. 809. Five, seven gold. Call them now.

Kind of feel passionately about that. Justin Askins is with us now. Hello, Justin. How are you?

Justin Haskins
I'm doing okay.

Today is a very dark day, Glenn. Today is a very dark day. And I'm not referring to the social credit scoring system in Europe that's going to transform all of life in America and probably destroy freedom. I'm talking about coming on the air, having to admit that I'm wrong and that you were right.

Glenn Beck
I wasn't going to bring it up.

Justin Haskins
I'm never going to be able to live it down.

Glenn Beck
I wouldn't. I wasn't going to bring it up. I mentioned it, you know, behind your back, but I was never, never going to bring it up. No. You know what?

You know, I just, I'm such a cynic on, on, especially the EU and now our government, that they'll do, they'll do the wrong thing every time. Every time. And what they passed, when was it? This weekend, Friday.

Justin Haskins
Friday.

Yep.

Glenn Beck
Okay. What they passed is a little terrifying because everything we talked about in dark future and the great reset is now in stone.

Please explain this to people.

Justin Haskins
Right. So for three years, you and I have been warning people about this pending legislation that was working its way through the massive bureaucracy of the European Union and their legislating process or legislative process that would essentially create a global social credit scoring system that would be imposed on, on companies that do business in Europe, companies that are based in Europe, and then many of the companies that they do business with. So we're not talking about just european companies. We're talking about american companies that do business in Europe and american companies that do business with someone who does business in Europe. So massive, massive numbers of companies, and.

Glenn Beck
I think that'll go all the way down the chain. We were talking about this. That goes all the way down, down the chain. If, if you are a Philco and you are providing the radios and the stereos in a ford, everybody who makes a part Philco is part of it now because they're selling to Ford.

But everyone who makes a part for Philco, I believe, will also be a part because it goes down the chain all the way. Right.

Justin Haskins
Yeah. I mean, that is, that is essentially how it works. There are some exceptions to this, but, but I'll give you a specific example because the law is incredibly complicated. I'll give you a specific example that I think a lot of people can relate to. This is related to the agricultural industry.

Glenn Beck
Okay?

Justin Haskins
This covers all sorts of things, not just agriculture. But this is one specific example. There's a company called Bayer. Now, everybody has heard of Bayer? This is like Bayer aspirin, that company. It's a major pharmaceutical company.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, I believe they used to make the Zyklon. Isn't that the company that made the Zyklon B to kill all the juice? I'm not sure. We'll look into it. Check that.

Justin Haskins
So they are based in Germany, and they, several years back bought a large. They're a $50 billion company. They're covered by this ESG law that happening in Europe now. They bought a company several years back called Monsanto. Monsanto is one of the largest biotech companies, or it was, in the world. They were based in Missouri.

Monsanto owns a whole bunch of agricultural companies in the United States. They did. They're now all owned by Bayer. So, for example, there's a company called American Seeds, which owns a bunch of seed companies. This is all now owned by Bayer. They are. Bayer is now one of the largest agricultural companies in the United States. They're one of the largest seed companies in the United States. So all of these farmers all across the United States that are buying seeds, many of them are buying seeds from Bayer, which now has to comply with these ESG rules. And so think of all of these farmers, not just the farmers, but all of the transportation companies, all of the storage companies, the warehouses, all of the people who are supplying parts and machines related to these various businesses. Many of them, not all of them, but many of them are going to be directly or indirectly tied to this ESG law. And that's just one tiny part of it. There are a million different ways that the tentacles of this is going to reach out into american society. You could be just an owner operator of a transportation truck. You have your own truck. You're an owner operator, you're a one person show, and you're just driving seeds around Iowa. And if you happen to do business with one of these businesses that's owned by Bear, you're going to have to comply with these rules, too. And it goes on and on and on and on and on down the.

Glenn Beck
Line now, people will say, and please read dark future. If you haven't, if you haven't read it yet, listen to the audio tape. I try to make it a little more fun because it's. I mean, it's talking about this stuff or the great reset. I highly recommend that you read both of those because that is now spelling the future.

And this was one of the big ones. We could stop ESG possibly, and we've done a good job at moving in that direction, but we didn't stop it.

We've, we can stop it in our own states and hopefully in our own government. But we told you the, the trump card on that. Sorry, Donald Trump. The trump card on that is if the EU passes it, then we have to do it if we want to do business with the EU. EU. Well, of course we want to do business with the EU. And it would not only mean that we wouldn't be selling stuff to them, it would mean, I believe, they can't buy stuff from us. Right.

Justin Haskins
Yeah. It's.

If you're a business in the European Union and you're buying something from a company that's based in the United States, like, say you're an energy company in the United States and you're getting natural gas out of the ground and you're selling natural gas to Europe. Yes. This is going to apply to you directly. There's no question about it. And then all of the companies that, that natural gas company is doing business with are also going to be caught up in this, too. This is the most diabolical plan that I've ever seen. It is now the law in Europe. And unless the United States of America stands up immediately and says, nope, you can do this to everybody else, but you can't do this to us unless they do that immediately. The fundamental transformation of the United States of America that Barack Obama talked about, that all the great reset people were.

Glenn Beck
Talking about four years ago, anybody who has talked, anybody who has talked about a global governance system, this is it. All of those things. This is it. And it passed in the EU.

Now, I immediately sent this to a couple of friends in Washington and said, this is the most important thing you can talk about and work on right now. Nothing else trumps this with all of the problems we have, nothing else. Do you believe that, Justin?

Justin Haskins
That is 1000% true. This affects everything else.

Glenn Beck
And you will.

Justin Haskins
Everything else.

Glenn Beck
You will not hear about this on 99% of podcasts, because 99% of podcasts aren't following this. They don't know what it is. And it's not a story here. That's a european thing.

This is crucial that you understand, and you begin to talk to your senators and your congressmen, that you vote for somebody who will stop this. This, this puts all of the great reset plans from Europe, which now will have to do it, into the United States and everywhere else. And I will bet you, Justin, it will not affect China. China will say, screw you. You don't want our products, don't buy our products, and they'll end up buying their products.

You agree?

Justin Haskins
Yes, I completely agree. And the reason for that is because the way that they set up the enforcement mechanisms, and this was very tricky. Essentially what they did was say all the countries of the European Union have to pass laws that comply with this law, and then it's up to each individual country to enforce those laws. So in other words, if the countries of the European Union decide we're not going to enforce the law on China, then they don't have to enforce the law on China. And so I think that's exactly what's going to happen. This is a license for European Union countries to go after anyone they want or to not go after anyone they want, depending on what their agenda is. And so China absolutely will get a pass and we won't.

Glenn Beck
And before we lose all of our status in the world and all of our ability to sell anything, we have to have a president, a senate and a congress that will stand up to Europe and say, we're not playing ball.

And if you, if that's it, then fine, we won't sell any of our products to you, but we are not going to bend our knee to the European Union. No.

Justin Haskins
Yes. And the disinformation and misinformation parts of this bill. I don't know how much time we have left, but let me, hang on.

Glenn Beck
Hang on, hang on. Let me quit. Let me stop here. I'll take 1 minute, then you come back, because this is really important. It's freedom of speech as well. The republic is over as you know it if we don't stop it here in America, and you got two years to do it back in just a second. Today is the day you have to make an important decision. You keep your current cell phone plan, you know, the one where you shell out big money every month to a big mobile corporation that donates money to leftist causes and puts us in the situation we're in right now. Or you could change to Patriot mobile, which doesn't do any of that, in fact, is fighting against these things and charges way less for the service and shares your values. I mean, how easy is that? This is easier than the jury has on the Trump trial.

Don't be like a Trump juror. Make the right decision. The easy decision. It's Patriot mobile.com slash beck or call nine seven two. Patriot. Nine seven two. Patriot.

Patriot mobile.com beck, that's patriot mobile.com back or call 972 Patreon it 10 seconds. Station ID all right, Justin, tell me how this affects free speech.

Justin Haskins
Okay, so there are a number of provisions in this, and we're still working our way through it. It's more than 100 pages long. And it, it cites a bunch of other agreements, international agreements, human rights policies, other things in the European Union, which are also many pages long. And so we're talking about hundreds and hundreds of pages of legislation that we're going through. But one of the things that comes up over and over and over again is misinformation and disinformation that companies can't. They have to make sure they have policies that are making sure that on various topics, like, say, climate change, for example, and things like that, that they're not supporting misinformation and disinformation. Well, one of the companies, and there are many, but one of the companies that would fall under this legislation is a company called Apple. I don't know, maybe some of your audience has heard of Apple before. Apple not only is one of the largest tech companies in the world, they make all of the, you know, iPhones and computers and all of that stuff, but they're also the largest podcast company in the world, they have the largest podcasting platform.

Think of all the other companies that are doing business in Europe. Communications companies, social media companies, Facebook, all of these companies.

Glenn Beck
I heart radio.

I heart radio.

Justin Haskins
That's right. They're all going to have to comply as well, including with the provisions that are related to misinformation and disinformation, and not just in their own company, but also with the companies that they're doing business with on the upstream side of their businesses. So this is going to impact everything. This is going to impact this radio show potentially. That's the kind of thing that we are dealing with in the long run here. This is the end game that we've been warning about forever.

Glenn Beck
This is why we started the blaze. But understand that the blaze is an app. Apple has, you know, the market on apps. That means if this. Well, it will because it's gone through. It's already been. But if we don't stop it in America, you will not be able to find the blaze on an app. Also, I heart one of the bigger podcasts. I don't even know how many podcasts. They have, like 800 different podcasts.

They go to Europe.

They go all over the world.

I don't know how much money they're making, and I don't know how much money Apple is making just on the podcast division. No, it doesn't matter, does it? Doesn't matter. It's a division. It's the whole company.

So.

Justin Haskins
That's right.

Glenn Beck
So this radio show could lose all of our reach just because this passed you, you know, and unfortunately, I didn't see it coming this way. But I've been saying, there's coming a day where my voice will not be heard. You will have to search for it if it's even allowed to be on my voice. And other voices, you know, even Joe Rogan and all of our good friends, Dave Rubin, all of them, Ben Shapiro, gone.

Because we will not comply with what the Europeans are telling us to do.

But if we do that, Apple, Google, everyone else will have to cancel us.

This is canceled culture with an army.

Justin Haskins
That's right. And America has. Is probably the only country in the world that is large enough, other than, you know, China. We're the only country that's freedom oriented in the world that's large enough to go to the European Union and say, no, no, see, Canada can't do that. A lot of other countries in the world can't do that. They're going to have to comply. But we don't need Europe as badly as Europe needs us. That's just a fact. They need our energy. They need our products. They need our technology. They need us far more than we need them.

And we have the leverage economically to stand up to them and say, no, we're not going to comply with this. This is not going to happen to our companies. It's not going to happen.

But we need a president who's going to support those policies, and we don't have that right now. We have the most pro ESG president, the most globalist president that we've had in 100 years. And that's. And that's a huge part of the problem. Look, we've heard this said a thousand times, I've mocked it before, the idea that this is the most important election of our lifetimes, all of that.

But if you're not paying, you know, if you're paying attention to what's going on right now, how can anyone disagree with that? We're talking about the end of freedom in America. Not, and that's not hyperbole. We're talking about actually ending freedom in America. We're talking about misinformation and disinformation rules, wholesale destruction of various parts of our economy, european social justice standards being imposed.

Glenn Beck
On control of our food.

Control of our food.

Justin Haskins
Absolutely. And it's just, and we're just scratching the surface. The other important thing to keep in mind is that not only are we still figuring out what else is in this, think about the ramifications for gun rights and things like that. But in addition to all of that, we also have the potential for more, more rules in the future.

Glenn Beck
Okay, Justin, we'll probably hit this again.

Give us some, you know, updated information. We really need to teach America what this is about because they won't hear it anywhere else. We'll have you on later this week if you can join us.

Justin Haskins
Absolutely, Glenn.

Glenn Beck
Thank you very much. Justin Haskins. You can see all this in the great reset and dark future.

Beck, the book that we wrote that talked about all of this. And, you know, Justin kept saying it, you know, this is so crazy. It's not going to happen. And I'm like, it's going to happen. It has. We're not talking about if or even when it's done.

All right, real estate agents, I trust.com. this is a company. This my company. And I've got great people that work for it. And we, what we do is we look for the, uh, the real estate agents all around the world that, sorry, not all around the world. Europe, here in America that have the best practices. They know how to close a deal. They know the market. They have the best practices in advertising and getting websites. So you have traffic already there.

It's a little company that we started that now has done, I don't even know, like $2 billion in sales of homes. If you're looking to buy or sell, find the real estate agent that you can trust. Just go to real estate agents itrust.com dot. I don't charge you anything for this. We just pass on the name of a great real estate agent. Real estate agentsitrust.com dot subscribe to Blaze tv.

Glenn Beck
All right, welcome to the program.

I'm going to talk about a sheriff that is, it's just very, very local. It's not in any news or anything else. But he's a prime example of a guy running and running against somebody that, well, he'll explain the story. Let me just tell you my story.

Not this race, not this state.

I have a sheriff in Idaho. We have a choice of two sheriffs because our other sheriff is retiring. And the role of the sheriff is not to aid the federal government in anything.

The role of the sheriff, the only elected law enforcement officer.

Only elected law enforcement officer, the attorney general is not elected. The Department of Justice.

He's not elected. He's appointed. Your police chief. Appointed.

This is the only one that is elected by the people. So they answer to the people and the constitution of the United States. Now, if a federal agent comes into town and needs to, you know, go into a house, the sheriff, who is the local person that in, you know, a lot of places like where I live, you know, the sheriff, he's there to come to make sure that the federal government is living up to the constitution, and they're not breaking down the door of somebody who the sheriff could knock on the door and say, hey, bill, listen, um, there's this problem, blah, blah, blah. And that the. He's there to guard the people against an unrighteous, uh, or out of control government federal official. That's his job.

Now, in Gillespie county, there is a sheriff that you know, well, I'll let him. I'll let him say exactly what he's running against. Chris I. Ayala is with us.

He is running. He is running for the sheriff in Gillespie County. Chris, how are you, sir?

Speaker
I'm good, sir. How are you today, sir?

Glenn Beck
Very good. I want you to add you on to make the point of why it's important to pay attention on who is running for sheriff in your, in your county. Tell me about your county and the race that you're in.

Speaker
So I went currently in a runoff race against the incumbent sheriff.

It's extremely important to get out to vote. And something you just said that I wholeheartedly believe, for me, running for sheriff means that I would be elected by the people. I would answer to the 32,000 people that live in Gillespie county. And that's extremely important. I do believe when you're appointed, it tends to be actually more political. But when you answer to the people, that's the only way to look at it, that you answer to them and you work for them, and most importantly, you protect and defend them as a sheriff. So that's why it's important that people understand the role of a sheriff in their county. I think it's extremely important for them to have that knowledge and for not only that, but for the sheriff to share that with them on a regular basis in open meetings, to say, this is what we're looking at, this is what we need to do. And we've unfortunately experienced what you're talking about here in Gillespie county about a year ago.

Glenn Beck
And it involved the ATF, right?

Speaker
Yes, sir, it sure did. So there was apparently some triggers that were sold online that these individuals here in Gillespie county had purchased. They purchased them legally online. They paid their money, the triggers were mailed, and they received them.

The ATF showed up in Gillespie county and met up with an investigator. And at that point, they did call these individuals. The problem was, is that, and, you know, this is talking to the individuals involved was that there really was no paperwork. And I believe in due process.

And, you know, if they bring in paperwork that's got their t's crossed and their I's dotted and it's proper and it's correct.

Glenn Beck
Correct.

Speaker
And I have problem with saying, guys, this is what we got to do. But you said another key factor is that the share should be in.

Glenn Beck
To.

Speaker
Where he can pick up a phone and say, hey, this is what's going on. Can you come in and let's discuss this?

Alan Dershowitz
So.

Glenn Beck
Right.

Speaker
We can do what's brought by you as the citizen of this county.

And so basically, they called these individuals up, and then after they admitted that they actually had the trigger, which, you know, I'm going to say, talking to the individuals, they had no idea the two ATF agents were sitting there listening to their conversation. So when they said, yes, we have the trigger, then they were told, well, hey, if you bring them in, there will be no charges filed. You won't have to worry about the ATF coming after you. So they felt the term compelled. And, you know, one of them, I will say this about all of them that I spoke with, they're all good men and they don't want any negatives, but when you're told, hey, we won't file charges, they decided, hey, I'll bring the triggers in and I'll turn them in.

There was one gentleman that he did not go down without a fight. I won't use the words he shared, but he just said, I don't believe that you do. I can't believe you're doing this. In his words, I really felt like they should have mailed me a letter, knocked, you know, sent me something ahead of time, not just call me up and put me on the spot, you know, where there was no way for me to work with anybody at that point.

Glenn Beck
You also had a.

You also had like a 70 year old woman arrested for January 6.

Speaker
Yes, sir. She was one of the J Sixers that lived here in the county.

She was arrested for disordered conduct warrants out of the FBI or out of the federal government warrant system, and she was pulled over for an infraction here in Gillespie county. Yes, sir.

Glenn Beck
And what did the other sheriff do so realistically?

Speaker
Just, you know, I'm going, based on what he said as a debate that we had, he basically said that by the time he was aware of it, she was already pretty much being loaded up in a vehicle and then being transported by the FBI.

Glenn Beck
Isn't that the, isn't that the role low of the sheriff to say to the FBI, you have any problem with anyone in my county, you come to me first.

Speaker
Absolutely. And I, and I'm going to say this.

The deputies are doing what they're told or allowed to do, but to me, and I said this in my public debate that they can see on YouTube, I simply said to me, the, the fact that they didn't call the sheriff, because here's the way I look at it, I will be, if I'm elected, the top law enforcement officer of the county.

I do not want to put deputies in a position I'd rather. And so what I said, the rule, if I'm elected was the each deputy will know. We get up, we wake up Ayala, and he's going to handle this. Because to me, I want it to be between me and the federal government, not between the deputies that are employed by the county and the federal government. And me, I want it to be me. I will make that decision. And if they ask, they can say, talk to the sheriff himself. He's the man that made that decision.

And I think that's extremely important when it comes to leadership, that you're lower. The guys that are doing the real work and the guys that are hustling out there, putting themselves on the line every day, those are the guys that should know what the expectations are of your top leadership.

Glenn Beck
Because the, because the discussion, yeah, the FBI can come in and just say, we need your deputies. And most sheriffs will just say, okay, but the sheriff can say, no, no, no, no, no, I need to know what's going on. And then he makes the decision. Correct, speaker one?

Speaker
Absolutely. And that's the, and when you said something earlier, and I'm going to requote you, when you said that it's the only elected position, to me, that's, that says volumes to that. And here's the, the other key thing, Texas, up until 2023, anybody could run for sheriff. You didn't have to have a license in law enforcement. You had a duty to get it after you were elected. But I think that was a safeguard to allow people of the public to say, hey, I don't see what's going on as correct. I don't see that it's right. They're not protecting us to people. And so someone who's had the heart to protect people could also run. But that's been changed as of 2023. So you have to now have a peace officer's license in the state of Texas to run for sheriff.

So I really feel that there's a lot of safe proofs that are already in the system.

Now, I will say this. I believe in our government, but I think that if I'm elected, the number one role I have to do is to reach out to those offices and say, look, this is my number. You have any issues in this county, you please call me directly.

And the deputies need to know, hey, we've been told way in advance where to call the sheriff, and here's his number.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Speaker
And I should be available. And then if not, the number two man, three man, they should have that knowledge as well. That's how, this is how we. It should be uniform from top to bottom as far as leadership goes.

Glenn Beck
This is a Texas candidate for Sheriff in Gillespie County, Chris Ayala. Thank you so much for talking to us, Chris.

Speaker
No, thank you for having me. I appreciate you. Good work.

Glenn Beck
Thank you. I just wanted to use him as an example of what you need to know, because I've learned a lot about the sheriffs and their relationship with the FBI and ATF.

They are supposed to go through the sheriff, and if you don't have a sheriff that is standing up to them, they, they won't.

You need a sheriff that says to the federal government, I protect the constitution and the rule of law in this county and the people.

And I'm with you if we're protecting and defending the constitution. But I need to know what you want to do to people in my county. And you save people from having a, you know, a door kicked in in the middle of the night. Because the idea is the sheriff can go with the FBI in their vans. They can go knock on the door and say, bob, I know you, and there's a problem. And the FBI is here. They want to talk to you about such and such. That's the way it's supposed to be done. Not with an abort. A 79 year old or is. Yeah, 79 or 69 year old woman who was parading in the Capitol, surround their house and come in with the, you know, the, the black masks and everything else. No, the sheriff.

So please, please find out who you're voting for, for sheriff, and actually sit down and talk to them or go to a debate, because it's critical, especially now. All right, back in a minute.

One of my children, young adults, received a reading list for English over the summer.

And I haven't read the books. I've only read the synopsis, and that was enough. One of them was, I think, very woke. I'm not sure because I haven't read the book, but, boy, the synopsis seemed like, oh, really? We're teaching our kids this now?

Can we read a novel that, you know, maybe, you know, Wuthering Heights, you know, great story.

There's something to these classics. I don't know why we're not reading that. And then we're also brainwashing our kids with history and everything else.

Stories are the most important thing. This is why they're changing our stories.

And, you know, somebody want, you know, you want to read Star wars or Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, something like that. But we're not. We're reading poison for our kids. This is why I have created a book series for young adults. Not because we thought it would be easy or because we thought it would make a lot of money, because I don't think it will, actually. But it's because nobody was doing this for young adults, and they have to. And it teaches them history. It's an adventure. It's. It's called Chasing Embers. It's a dystopian adventure for teens set in the post great reset world. It's a warning what happens when we forget our history and our story.

But instead of a, you know, dry, boring history book that nobody you know in 17 will read, Chasing Embers is the first book in a series that will take your kids on an epic adventure. Now, it comes out July 23. And, you know, when you publish a book, you get what are called galleys. They're very rare.

And these galleys are sent to influential people. You know, so, you know, you send them to other shows so they can talk about it and read and go, this is such a great book.

I think the most influential people are you.

And so I got. I have 20 galleys. Again, I. All galleys are rare for any book. I got 20 galleys that I'm going to send to you. This is the first printing.

Not even. It's, you know, not for sale. Everything else marked on it.

This is, uh, the first printing of chasing embers. And if you are a parent of a teenager who loves to read, anyone from 13 to, you know, 20, and if you're your kids, mature, you know, men, reads a lot. Eight even, you'll receive one of these galleys for your kids. I'm gonna send it to you. You call us now. 888727 Beck.

All I ask is that your child reads it and writes back and tells me honestly what they think, what they learned, what the adventure, you know?

I want to hear an honest review.

Chasing embers, the first book in the oarsman series. It comes out now, July 23. You can order it at glenn beck.com. get all the information on it, but I want you to call 88727 Beck right now. The first five parents that qualify gotta have a teen and everything else. You'll get this exclusive early copy for your teen. Uh, and we ask that you don't, you know, pass it around to everybody, um, because it comes out July 23. The only thing we request is that your child read it, and you write back to us and tell you. Tell us what you think. Call us now. Eight at 8727 beck.
