Trial or No Trial: Senate GOP, Make Up Your Minds! | Guest: Susie Jennings | 12/16/19

Susie Jennings joins Glenn Beck to discuss Operation Care, a Dallas ministry providing 5,000 cupcakes and foot washing for 21,000 attendees annually following her husband's suicide. The conversation pivots to the Trump impeachment trial, where Beck argues for a full Senate proceeding to expose what he calls a "sham," contrasting this with the mishandled Russia investigation and unproven Steele dossier allegations. While callers debate political risks versus the need for truth, the episode concludes by highlighting Jennings' expansion plans to all 50 states as a testament to faith-driven service amidst national division.

Overcomer Movie Now Available 00:02:04
Thank you so much.
It was a pleasure to have you back this morning.
We had our Christmas party on Saturday, and it was anyway.
Our overcomer.
No, we edited a golf play.
We'll talk about it in a second.
Yeah, we should.
Overcomer, the number one inspirational movie in America is now available for digital download today.
It's available in Blu-ray and DVD December 17th.
It's from the Kendrick brothers, one of the, you know, some of the most beloved storytellers in the faith space.
I think of our time.
They did Courageous, The War Room, both huge hits.
Overcomer tells the story of Coach John Harrison when his high school basketball team's state championship dreams are crushed.
You're going to really love it.
We talked about it when it came out.
Really good movie.
Overcomer movie.com, OvercomerMovie.com.
Download today or pre-order your copy on Blu-ray or DVD, OvercomerMovie.com.
And enlightenment.
Well, hello America and welcome to Monday.
We're glad you're here.
A lot to go over.
We begin with James Colby.
When we come back in one minute, is the Glenback program.
All right, 60 seconds and right into the show.
There's a new survey out: 2020 New Year's resolutions.
Top two results.
You ready?
What do you think they are?
Quick.
Get less fat.
No, that's money of mine.
Nope.
Lose weight, eat less.
Nope.
No.
Top two.
Reducing debt and spending less.
Now, a lot of ways you can accomplish both getting out of debt and spending less money.
Vindicated Against Mainstream Media 00:15:36
One big way, and I recommend this if you're fiscally responsible, is to refinance your home mortgage.
Don't reset the date, just refinance it.
If that's the case for you, call American Financing.
In 10 minutes, their team of salary-based mortgage consultants will discuss mortgage refi options that can get you out of high-interest debt faster and add more money to your budget.
You could literally be saving hundreds of dollars a month or more, and that will take you 10 minutes to find out.
10 minutes.
Same thing for initial loans and mortgages.
American Financing doesn't apply pressure.
No upfront fees.
They're not working for the bank.
They're working for you.
So take the short 10 minutes, give them a call.
You'll thank me later.
I'm waiting.
I mean, now is later.
All right.
American Financing 800-906-2440-800-906-2440 or AmericanFinancing.net.
American Financing Corporation, NMLS 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
Oh, we have some unbelievable Greta Thurnberg stuff today.
She is going to be a monster.
Or, and I hate to say this, I say this with respect.
I really do.
Great setup after he just called her a monster.
Well, no, no, not respect for her, respect for the condition.
I think she could be suicidal in her short life.
You know, we had the article that was, I thought, really interesting about just her search for meaning.
Yeah.
And she says herself that she was really depressed, and this is what's helped find her meaning.
And it's how you can kind of understand some of the decisions potentially that the parents have made.
In that, like, if you see a person who's like deep depression, she's, you know, she admits she was completely lost in her life and found no meaning in her life.
And now their daughter is out there doing something that she feels is important.
And as much as you look at it from the outsider perspective and can't understand how you'd thrust someone like this into the public spotlight, on the other hand, like you could probably see she's probably a lot more, you know, she's probably more herself, as they would see it around the house and everything else.
So it's a tough, it's a tough one, man, to navigate.
This is bad.
Taking someone like that and putting them in this position is a recipe for disaster.
Disaster.
Disaster.
Personally.
And I hope that doesn't, you know, God forbid, I hope something bad doesn't happen.
But she's like, she really is become the face of this movement.
And now she's going to put herself in a position where everything that she does is critiqued and put under a microscope.
But it's also, she's turning into a monster.
She really is.
And her parents are to blame.
But we'll get into that in a little while.
Let me just first, let's talk about James Comey.
James Comey has come out now and say, we have the video of James Comey here.
I was wrong about FISA.
There are 17 significant errors in the FISA process, and you say that it was handled in a thoughtful and appropriate way.
Yeah, he's right.
I was wrong.
I was overconfident in the procedures that the FBI and justice had built over 20 years.
I thought they were robust enough.
It's incredibly hard to get a FISA.
I was overconfident in those because he's right.
There was real sloppiness.
17 things that either should have been in the applications or at least discussed and characterized differently.
It was not acceptable.
And so he's right.
It's a pretty amazing moment there because we heard how many times from James Comey that this was a perfectly buttoned up process.
But we have the audio.
Do we still have the audio from last week where he was saying that it was completely vindicated him?
Yeah, completely vindicated him.
There was no problems at all.
Yeah, we may have two clips just to, you know, talking a backshop here.
We may have two clips of the Comey thing.
There's one that's two and a half minutes on our sheet.
If we have that one, could we roll that out?
Because it has the vindication angle in that.
Is that possible or no?
Do we have any idea on that one?
Is anybody talking to us?
All right.
Here, while we're waiting for that clip, let's go to here's Trey Gowdy talking about the Comey apology.
I think this morning Comey admitted he was wrong.
Sometimes, Maria, it's better late than never, and sometimes it's just too damn late.
And in this case, Comey is about two years too late.
We could have used his objectivity.
We could have used him as a head of the FBI helping Republicans figure out what was happening with FISA instead of thwarting us and obstructing us.
So he said it was a policy and procedure issue.
It's not, Maria.
They've always been policies against manufacturing evidence and withholding exculpatory evidence.
That's not new.
Those aren't new policies.
This is a personnel issue.
It's the wrong people in the wrong positions of power.
That's not going to be fixed with a new policy or procedures.
It's going to be fixed by replacing the people who did what they did in 2016.
It's a good point made by Trey Gowdy with fascinating hair.
Like, I couldn't concentrate.
I don't know what he was saying.
Could you play that again just without the audio?
If you happen to be watching Blaze TV, I was thinking, I couldn't, I didn't even see the hair.
I couldn't even listen to him.
It was all I was there.
No, no, I was concentrating on his nose.
It's disappearing.
It's like just a straight line down his.
It's like, is it Beaker?
He looks a little like Beaker with the little hair on the top and the straight nose.
I hadn't seen that before, but it does.
Just think of him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Beaker and I like Trey.
I mean, I say this with all respect.
Well, you say this is a man who's made a Kentucky fried kernel chicken t-shirt of his own face on the side of a chicken bucket.
So I mean, I can laugh at myself.
Absolutely.
I can laugh at myself.
I'm sure he can too.
Okay.
All right.
Wow.
I think we do have the longer clip here of James Comey.
Yeah.
If we could hear that.
I have total confidence that the FISA process was followed and that the entire case was handled in a thoughtful, responsible way by DOJ and the FBI.
I think the notion that FISA was abused here is nonsense.
Nonsense.
Nonsense.
Conspiracy theory.
Conspiracy theory.
That's bizarre.
Yeah.
It's interesting to hear Comey come out and say that.
And, you know, I guess you give him some credit for admitting it a little late.
You know, I don't know.
I mean, I guess you say, okay, here he is.
He's at least saying it.
But it's impossible to deny at this point.
And this is also the same guy, as you point out, who when this came out said it was complete vindication, which Chris Wallace asked him about and said, hey, you know, you said this was complete vindication for your position.
Here's what the IG said about that.
And they play the clip of the IG saying, no, it was definitely not complete vindication.
There's massive problems here.
And it's true.
I mean, it's obvious, right?
We all saw the report.
We all can see and hear and read.
So it was a weird PR attempt to come out and say you were vindicated and then 10 seconds later come out and say, well, you're right.
Now, Comey's line on the vindication was to say, well, we were vindicated from the very worst accusations, right?
So to say, instead of saying like, well, the very worst accusations.
You were vindicated.
Carter Page?
That was.
He says, you know, and he's playing the line that the media was playing, which is there was no political bias.
That was what the report said.
It said there was no political bias.
Now, it didn't say that.
It said there was no evidence.
There's no documentary evidence of political bias.
However, how do you make 17 errors and they're all going one way and they're not errors?
They're changing documents, falsifying documents.
Yeah, the only two explanations for this are political bias.
They were breaking their own rules to target Trump, right?
That's one.
And number two is they break their own rules all the time to get these FISA warrants.
And it's all tilted towards essentially conviction, if you will, right?
That's even worse.
That's worse.
I mean, so which one is it?
Is it that you always fix these things so that you can get the FISA warrant?
Or were you targeting Trump for political reasons?
One of the two.
Because the entire system is a disaster if they do this to everybody.
So in a way, you kind of wish they were just doing it because they didn't like Trump, you know, because at least then you don't have to completely scrap the entire system.
But honestly, until we know the answer to that, you pretty much have to scrap the entire system.
If this is the way they're handling this, it's what every libertarian warned us about this entire time going back to the Bush administration.
Apparently, they were completely right.
Completely right.
Completely right.
Completely vindicated.
The libertarians were.
Yes.
Yes.
Correct.
Yes.
You know, I was looking at the Boris Johnson win and then looking at this impeachment and looking how the left here in America has been dealing with things and how they're trying to silence people.
And I think there's a few lessons that really need to be learned.
And I think the first thing is the silent majority is who the Democrats should be talking to and trying to relate to because it's the silent majority, not the loud minority that actually goes out and votes.
Right now, our society is built on silencing and making you feel alone, and you're in the majority.
It's the same message I gave you during the 9-12 project.
You're not alone.
You're not alone.
There are millions of Americans who feel just like you do.
And they're not all Republicans.
Some are Independents, some are Democrats.
But they don't like the craziness that is happening right now.
Social media.
Social media is not the voice of the majority.
Bots don't vote.
Algorithms don't vote.
People do.
Algorithms make people discouraged.
Algorithms make people feel alone.
Algorithms make people stay home.
So it's the majority voice, the silent majority voice, that we need to pay attention to.
If you're going to win an election, that's who you pay attention to.
Not social media and certainly not the press.
The third thing that I think everybody needs to learn is the mainstream media is no longer mainstream.
It's not.
And I don't mean it that they're, well, they're so far left.
I mean they're not really appealing to the mainstream anymore.
They're not appealing to the silent majority.
They're not appealing to people in the center of the country.
And it has been replaced.
But the mainstream media has not been replaced by one entity.
The mainstream media has been replaced by hundreds, hundreds of entities.
So we've lost some of our cohesion.
We've lost some of our unity.
But I believe because we no longer believe the mainstream media, we're better off for it.
But you should know, mainstream media, it was your bias, your lies, your incompetence, your arrogance that drove your audience away.
They didn't find something necessarily they like better.
They just couldn't take you anymore.
And you have sullied yourself so badly that it's over.
Because you can't silence thought.
You can't tell people over and over the sky is green when we all know the sky is blue.
We're not Sherlock Holmes.
We do rely on investigations and investigative reporters, but we don't trust you anymore.
The American people are smarter than you've given them credit for.
And if the media doesn't learn that, the media is done.
Done.
I mean, close up the shop, sell the lights, sell the cameras.
Nobody's buying.
Nobody's watching.
Close up shop.
The same thing can be said, thank God, for the progressive era and the socialist, democratic socialist era.
They are selling a load of goods that the world, quite honestly, doesn't want, except third world countries.
And then once they get it, they don't want it either.
The world's about to change.
And it just might be for the better because of the arrogance of the left.
Hey, there's a huge holiday gift savings going on with Simply Safe, biggest sale of the year.
Let me tell you about it for one minute, then right back into the show.
If you're looking to fully protect your home with award-winning 24-7 home security, now is the time to do it.
Burglaries are on the rise during the holiday season.
Families travel leaving the empty house, expensive gifts behind.
You know, when I first moved into my neighborhood, there was a neighbor, a famous neighbor, who had a big safe in their bedroom that was, you know, off the master bathroom.
And it was actually bolted to the floor.
And I'll never forget this ring of thieves actually posed as the alarm company.
And after the family had left, they had like, I don't know, a maid or something.
And that person let this alarm company in.
It was bogus.
They painted the van and everything to look just like the alarm company.
They came in, they disabled the cameras and the alarms, and then told that person, it's all good.
Then during the Christmas holiday, for three days, three days it took them to like take this thing out and rob the house and they stripped it of it.
It was like the Grinch.
Thieves get very, very emboldened around this time of year.
You need to protect your family and SimplySafe can do that.
Smart lock, video doorbell pro to defend your front door, whole army of sensors and cameras guard every window, door, and room in your house.
And if there is a break-in, they can give you real-time video confirmation to police as it happens.
So the police come three and a half times faster.
Simply Safe.
Simply Safe has a holiday offer with you in mind, but it ends December 31st.
It's rare that they do something like this.
So now is your chance.
SimplySafeBeck.com.
Just go there now, find out how much you're going to save.
And remember, the sale ends December 31st.
Go there now.
SimplySafebeck.com.
10 seconds.
Break for station ID.
Fox Network Interview Behavior 00:02:25
So did you hear that Donald Trump is taking on Fox News?
He tweeted against Fox News.
Hard to believe that Fox News will be interviewing sleaze bag and total discredit, former FBI James Comey, also corrupt politician Adam Shifty Schiff.
I mean, but they got a good moment out of the Fox News.
Yeah, they did with Comey.
It says Fox is trying so hard to be politically correct and yet totally shut out from the failed Dem debates.
Both Comcast MSNBC and fake news CNN are watching their ratings tank.
Fredo is on CNN and he's Fredo is dying on CNN.
Don't know why Fox wants to be like them.
That's pretty standard Fox behavior, though, to bring on opposing interviews, right?
I mean, that's been something they've done for a long time.
Here's my prediction.
May I make a prediction?
Sure.
Here's my prediction.
Donald Trump will leave office in 2024, most likely, and he will purchase OAN and he will start the Trump cable news network or the Trump television Trump news network, you know, TNN.
And he's throwing Fox News under the bus because sometimes they deserve to be thrown under the bus, but don't we all?
But he is setting up to be the competitor and write it down.
Trump will merge or purchase OAN and become the Trump News Network.
That's interesting.
I mean, it's certainly a possibility.
He's not just going to go away, right?
He's not going to be like, I got to just play golf at Mar-a-Lado.
No, no.
That's not something that's going to happen.
No, On this point, though, Glenn, you mentioned how media is being taken over by hundreds and hundreds of different voices and how people find their news in other ways and how they trust other things.
And one of the things we've talked about a lot is the control of big tech over so many of these voices.
You know, we've seen it with Steven Crowder.
We've seen it with you.
We've seen it with so many, you know, Prager University all of this.
And I feel like we talk about this stuff.
Sometimes we can get into our own little bubble and we talk about how big of a problem this is and how it kind of seems like everybody should know it by now.
I was fascinated by this stat.
Dr Emmett Brown Futurist 00:03:24
This is a brand study of brand favorability in the United States.
Okay.
So giving you like the top five or six here.
Campbell's Soup, 72.9% favorability.
Sony, 75% favorability.
Kellogg, 75.9%.
UPS, 76%.
Amazon, 76%.
Very favorable.
Number two on the list is Hershey's.
This is in the United States of America.
Hershey's 78.6%.
78% Hershey's.
Is that the highest?
Second highest.
Second highest.
Only one company beats Hershey's and every other company.
Do not say.
Number one highest brand favorability in the United States, Google.
Oh my gosh.
78.7%.
What is wrong with you?
And by the way, I left out one other one, which was just ahead of Campbell's and below Sony.
YouTube, 73.8%.
These are brands that people adore.
And you wonder why at times, why don't they understand these moves that look so bad?
Well, they're not paying any price for it.
And it's true.
Like we all know that when you want to search for something, you go to Google because it works better than pretty much everybody else.
You know why it works better?
Because they have all of your information.
They know what you're looking for.
It's going to get very, very good.
They will be able to predict you better than you can predict you.
They will have non-emotional algorithms on you.
They already have it.
And they will be able to predict you.
There is, I did a podcast.
Who was it with Brown?
Dr. Emmett Brown?
No.
And he's a futurist.
And he said, you know, I said, you're going to get to this place.
How is anybody ever going to give up Google when Google assistant will say to you, you know, you get up one morning, hey, Stu, I know you've been having a rough time.
You and your wife should take a vacation to Hawaii.
And I've already arranged it.
It's at your favorite hotel.
I got you on this flight.
I can cancel it, but I know you're concerned about financing.
So I've rearranged and you can actually afford it.
Would you like to go?
How are you going to say, how are you going to say no?
Jeff Brown says to me, that application is in the next iPhone.
The next generation iPhone will have that kind of service.
Who's going to say no?
Who's going to say no?
I also point out that Dr. Emmett Brown was also a futurist.
I don't know why you disagree with me on that point.
All right, I want to talk to you a little bit about Rectech Grills.
Take out your phone.
And when I say go, I want you to remotely start your grill from wherever you're at.
You ready?
Go.
Yeah.
I can turn on my RekTech Grill from my phone.
If you have a RekTech Grill, you can turn it on from your phone.
The app looks really cool.
It is.
It's an unbelievable.
Have you seen the grill?
I haven't seen it.
I've just seen it.
I've been on the hospital.
It's unbelievable.
Since you've been talking about it.
Really unbelievable.
So this is for the person who is a foodie, somebody who likes good quality grill.
I don't know what you would call it.
All the perfect temperature.
Because it monitors the temperature.
You can watch it on the app.
And the high-tech part of it just makes it so you will never screw your food up.
Exposing Political Fraud Lies 00:13:27
This holiday season, why not give the gift that is sure to bring you, your family, and your friends closer together?
Get the gift and give the gift of RecTech.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
Pat Gray joins us from Pat Gray Unleashed, the podcast that you can hear daily wherever you get your podcast.
Welcome to the program, Pat.
Thank you.
I want to talk about the election, but we had a little holiday music.
How much did you pay for your Christmas tree?
Do you have a fake one or a real one?
I have a fake one.
You have a fake one.
Stu, fake one?
Fake and proud.
Fake and proud.
Okay.
All right.
Why?
Do you, are you?
You have a real one?
No, I have a fake one, but I want to start buying new ones.
And so I bought one.
We went out and got one at a tree farm up in Idaho.
And it was, I think, $35.
And it was seven feet, I think.
I mean, it's like, it's amazing.
You know, out west.
Do you know how much a tree costs in New York City?
A lot?
A lot.
What would you think?
What would you think, Stu?
This is a 20-foot.
This is a Frasier fir.
20-foot is a huge tree.
That's a huge tree.
I mean, it's a huge tree.
So it's got to be nuts.
It's got to be nuts.
Probably, I mean, you know, in New York City, I mean, you'd probably pay $500 for that in a normal place.
So double that?
$800, $1,000?
I mean, that's gigantic.
Got a clue.
Got a guess.
Well, I don't have a guess because I know the story.
I know the story.
So it wouldn't be fair.
$6,500.
$6,000.
Nuts.
$500.
For a live tree?
For a live tree.
Is there a place in New York City that Jeffrey Epstein doesn't own where a tree like that even fits?
You're a ballroom of a, you know, like a lobby of a hotel, right?
I mean, so they are $325 per foot in New York City.
That's crazy.
That's nuts.
That's some tree disease in the east or something.
And you're expected to put presents underneath it?
There's your present.
It's a tree.
There it is.
Merry Christmas, kids.
Yeah.
Didn't even have the money to put the lights on it.
Years ago, bought a 12-foot tree that you can reuse over and over and over and over every year, indefinitely.
I like the one much less than that.
You notice the sets being decorated behind this set.
There's another set, and it's being built for Steven Crowder's Christmas party, which is on Wednesday or Thursday.
I think he's doing it live, and he's got a bunch of people in.
Have you seen how many trees are on the set?
Many.
And they're all fake.
And they're all on wheels.
And we just, when we're done, we just wheel them back into the tree area in the prop department.
I love that.
I love that.
I mean, let's be honest about it.
Fake ones.
Fake is much better.
It said the stripper.
But it's true in this case.
I think with trees, because I fought it for a long time.
I love this experience of like the real tree.
I really married to him, but not anymore.
Not anymore.
Yeah, the same way.
The last one I had, we didn't take down fast enough.
And so it got so rigid and stiff, we could not get it out the door.
I had to individually cut off every branch inside that house.
It was still for everybody.
Yeah, exactly.
The mess.
It was a disaster.
Yeah.
What was the latest you've ever had a tree up?
I mean, even in, you know, college days, you know, when you were young, longest you ever had a tree up.
I mean, if it was, if it was up to me, I just, and I will say, even to this day, what we do with the tree is take it down and then put it up in full form in the garage so we don't have to put it away.
So it stays in our garage all year long up and not quite decorated, but has a lot, you know, some of the stuff on it already.
So I think that's the efficient way to do it.
You know, packing it away with a bag for it.
Oh, so you have to sit there with each individual branch and fluff out the branches every year?
That's silly.
Just keep it up.
You are lazy.
You are.
You are.
You are a god to me.
I thought I was going to go the other direction.
No.
No.
You are a god to me.
I put it in the, well, when I say I, the kids put it in the bag every year and take it out.
And it's like.
It's a pain.
I have neighbors a couple houses away.
They showed us what they do.
They have a rollaway wall in their living room.
A rollaway wall.
Yeah, they designed it and they just pull back the wall, push the tree on wheels back into this little wall compartment.
Close the wall, and you can't tell.
Looks like you're just in the living room.
That's America right there.
And it's only for the tree.
It's only for the tree and the Christmas decorations.
Yeah, that is brilliant.
Jeffrey Epstein had that at his house too.
It was for other purposes.
It's pretty amazing.
And it's only for the little girls.
That's the little girl there.
The police are there.
It looks like it's a normal wall.
All right.
What's in the news that strikes your fancy today, Pat?
All right.
Well, I'm just a little concerned about the tainting, the delegitimizing of the 2020 election that the Democrats are doing now.
Trying to claim that, okay, not only did Donald Trump mess with the 2016 election with the Ukrainians or the Russians or both or whoever, but he's already tainted the 2020 election?
How?
I don't know.
His misconduct is going on.
Oh, with Giuliani's trip to Ukraine.
Giuliani is.
Do they have any evidence of this?
No, of course not.
I mean, they haven't had any evidence.
Anything?
Anything.
No.
Anything.
They've got nothing.
And they just continue to lie and lie and lie and lie.
Yeah, and it's extremely dangerous.
I think it's bad to our country.
Bad.
If you start saying that Donald Trump's election, because they know they're not going to be able to beat him, which is why they're already saying, well, he's already tainted the election and they know they can't win.
So when he does win, they're going to be claiming it's not legitimate that he's been selected somehow.
He's gotten there through cheating and fraudulent means.
And we're going to have, I mean, they're going to push us over the edge here if they're not careful.
I've been thinking about this for a couple of weeks.
We need to go back and make a montage of all the times.
Yes, of course.
They said that Donald Trump was going to come out after the election and say it wasn't valid and therefore prove that he was against, he is against the democracy, American democracy.
It's at stake.
He's going to put it at risk.
They're all doing it.
They all are still saying Stacey Abrams is the rightful governor of Georgia.
Yeah.
They are, I mean, they do this every single time.
Every time they lose.
Every time they lose.
Yep.
Every time they lose.
There's some fraud that went on.
And then they act as if the other side is doing it.
So let me change the subject slightly here to go back to the impeachment.
And I'd like to take calls next hour on this.
Should Donald Trump actually go and have the full verdict, have the full trial?
Now, I have said yes because I think that it won't be legitimate.
They'll just say, oh, the Republicans just didn't do anything about it.
We swept it under the rug.
Swept it under the rug.
So I don't think that's, I don't think that's good.
And what I don't like swept under the rug is all of the truth about what the Democrats have done.
Yeah.
It needs to be shown.
This is a sham, a total sham.
However, the concern is, is that this is a setup because you could get anybody in the Senate.
They'll call witnesses and they'll call John Bolton, who I don't think is a friend of the president's.
They'll call John Bolton.
Call people and they'll try to score points.
And all you have to do is just peel a few people away.
He's won already because the Democrat, you have at least one Democrat that's going to defect this week.
The real clear politics polling average on impeachment and removal is underwater now for the first time.
It's now more people think Trump should not be removed from office on average.
And it's full partisan.
I mean, you have a guy literally leaving the Democratic Party.
He's not just voting.
He's leaving the Democratic Party because he says this is ridiculous.
This is a total sham.
So he's leaving the Democratic Party, not just voting with the Republicans.
He's leaving it.
So you remember, the reason why Nixon left office is because you started to have the Republicans go soft.
Well, let's just remember, we're going to a Senate where Mitt Romney is.
Yeah, and two, there's just the possibility of disaster, right?
Somebody says the wrong thing that changes the storyline.
Somebody screws up.
Some new thing comes to light that we don't know about.
And this is what Mike Lee was saying when he was on last week.
Even though Mike favors the trial, he's like, the argument is if you've won already, just take the win and leave.
Don't sit there and continue the argument and then open yourself up for a possibility of something that you don't expect going wrong.
Makes sense, but I still think it's stupid to win the country.
I say, risk, big, win-big.
I think you got to go for it and expose what they've done here.
Set the rules in the Senate like they set them in the House.
Like you have to, McConnell has to approve the witnesses.
What's the second half of that phrase, though?
Lose big.
That's what I was just going to say.
Are you prepared to have a Mitt Romney?
Let's say John Bolton comes out and says, you know, he was just crazy and I had to leave because he was doing cocaine on the desk, says something stupid, and then Romney says, yeah, you know what?
I'm leading this charge.
And you start to flip just a few Republicans.
I think that's less of a risk of someone who is friendly to the president going too far in his defense and saying something ridiculous that winds up being the storyline.
I mean, we've seen these things happen before where someone.
Don't you want a shot at the whistleblower, though?
I do.
Eric Sharimella.
Right.
But here's the leadership.
That's a federal crime.
I know.
I know.
Come get me.
Yeah.
Come get me.
So here's the.
Oh, they will.
I know.
So here's the, but here's the question because I'm very clear.
The right thing to do is to have the trial.
Now let's just talk politics for a second.
Okay.
Forget about the politics has nothing to do anymore with doing the right thing.
That's for sure.
So let's just talk politics.
Are you prepared to lose even if he doesn't, even if he's not impeached, to have this thing swing around to where 55% of the American people are like, I want him impeached now?
He should have been removed.
I mean, I'm not probably not prepared for that, but I just don't see that happening.
I mean, it didn't happen in the House.
Did you see that?
It's going to happen in the more favorable Senate.
A, have you met the Republican Party?
Yes.
Just betting on incompetence.
Betting on incompetence is a safe thing.
And B, did you see Donald Trump being president of the United States?
Because I didn't see that one coming either.
I mean, there's been like every day I look at the news and I'm like, yeah, didn't see that one coming.
Yeah.
That's bizarre.
There's definitely an argument for it here.
However, you got to step back and say, you know what, the political, there is political risk here, right?
You don't know what the media gloms onto and turns into this big issue and it might turn some public opinion.
But secondarily, and it shouldn't be secondary, is the consideration of whether it's the right thing to do.
If this is really happening, it needs to be exposed.
So I come to Pat's side on this in the end in that, like, you know, wait a minute.
I didn't.
You know, Pat's the smart one here, and that's why I'm against you.
Chair Ordered For Exposure 00:03:43
You're the dark one.
I've been arguing the whole time.
But that's why, Pat, your point is so brilliant.
It's that the thing you've been telling Glenn to say.
But I'm serious.
You call it music starting where I that's fine with me.
I was going to defend you.
I was typing.
Oh, no.
Stop the music.
Stop the music.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Pat, great idea on the whole.
Thank you.
Start the music.
We're going to go into the phones and take your opinion on this next hour.
Call us right now at 888-727-BECK.
I'd like to just hear from you.

Or should we just move on?
I can see both sides.
888-727-BECK.
Call us.
Call us right now.
Oh, there it is.
There's that music again.
Thank you very much.
All righty.
Thank you.
X-Chair.
Clock is ticking.
Do you have the X-Chair ordered?
Do you let me say it again?
Do you have the X-Chair ordered?
In my head, I'm like, no, not yet.
We were putting our list together for all the shopping and stuff that we have to do yet, and I noticed that there was an X-Chair on that list and not in my handwriting, which was strange.
Anyway, X-Chair.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
You know, it's crazy.
We have to play a couple of...
We have to play a couple of cuts from just how crazy people have gotten in the media.
Joy Reid is really upset.
She says that Donald Trump's not going to leave office.
All of this conspiracy stuff.
I mean, when people said that about Barack Obama, I always said that's not going to happen.
He's going to leave office.
It's not going to happen.
Here you have hosts who are propagating this stuff.
Jim Sciutto, he works for CNN.
He was part of the Obama administration.
Mitch McConnell Trial Documents 00:15:13
And he's one of their national security advisors.
And there is, he's probably the worst on television when it comes to supporting.
I could leave it.
Is there a period there?
Yeah.
Period.
He also has defended the Steel dossier more than any other journalist.
And he's been wrong every single time.
But it's not like he's speaking from opinion.
He said that U.S. officials had cooperated some parts of the dossier.
That's absolutely untrue.
When you look at all of the things that he has said over the last couple of years about the steel dossier and about the FBI, he is the chief conspiracy theorist.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
So is a large chunk of your monthly budget going towards credit card bills?
If so, you are not alone.
And I said just last hour that the number one and number two New Year's resolution so far this year, get out of debt and spend less.
Well, you can do both of those if you refi right now.
Get out of debt.
American Financing consolidate that debt with the lowest possible interest rates.
It's a mortgage refi.
You can save $1,000 a month and it will only take you a 10-minute phone call.
That's all it takes.
They'll put your needs first.
American financing, homeowned, locally owned, and owned by a family.
They do things right.
AmericanFinancing.net.
So this hour, I want to hear from you.
And what I want to know is, should there be a trial?
Because there's a great debate going on right now.
Donald Trump, is he being set up?
Is some surprise witness going to come out?
What will John Bolton say?
Right now, the president has won.
And legal experts would say, shut up and sit down.
But is that the right thing to do?
And politically, is it the right thing to do?
You decide.
I can see both sides.
I want to hear from you.
888-727-BECK.
This is the Glenbeck program.
Start taking your phone calls here in one minute.
First, let me tell you about the X-Chair.
What kind of chair are you sitting in right now?
Is it comfortable?

Does it have a dynamic variable lumbar support system?
If it doesn't, it's not an X-Chair.
The last bit is patented.
So I have been, you know, sitting in chairs at a studio my whole life.
You probably have done the same, sitting at your office your whole life.
I'm telling you, there is no better chair than the X-Chair.

XCHAR is the next generation.

So what should happen with impeachment?
Stu, I think we're both in agreement on what the right thing to do is, and that is expose what the Democrats have done and have a full trial and have it fair and free.
You know, have the Republicans in control, but you know, I don't even know what that means because the Republicans, the Republicans.
I mean, Mitch McConnell is saying, however, publicly that he's basically letting Trump design this process.
Which is ridiculous.
Why would you say that?
Why would you do that?
It's a weird thing to say publicly.
I mean, surely the Democrats would do the same exactly the same thing.
However, they probably wouldn't say it publicly.
And he's trying to basically signal to Republicans: hey, don't blame me if he doesn't want to do this trial because I'm letting him design the process.
That's, I mean, McConnell's just, you know, CYA here, right?
But it is a bizarre thing to say publicly.
And I would say that, you know, whether it's the better political move, I think can be debated.
I mean, because you can say they've already won this with the American people.
Move on, get to the election.
You know, don't spend another minute on this, then you have to.
On the other hand, I think the right thing to do is that the real full story comes out.
And so far, there's been no opportunity for that.
And if you believe that you have the right side of that story, the American people should know about it.
So now the question is, I agree with that, but the question is: Mitt Romney.
By the way, word in Utah is that Mitt Romney will not win a second term.
He is, he is.
Really?
I don't know if I buy that.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I've heard that.
All right.
So you go into a trial and John Bolton or somebody who really is like, you know, likes Donald Trump.
And, you know, as Stu says, just is like, yeah, and another thing.
He's really great and he's building secret weapons to kill all of the people that are living in New Jersey.
You'll be like, wait, what?
I mean, anything can happen in a trial.
Anything could happen in a trial.
And all you need is somebody like Mitt Romney to peel away and start to say, you know, I don't know.
And then it's just an avalanche.
Then it could just be an avalanche.
I don't think anybody thinks he's going to get thrown out of office.
It's not going to get to 67 senators.
I don't think so either.
However, it could affect public opinion.
If it looks like the Republicans are playing a partisan game the same way, Democrats are dealing with that right now.
They are seen as just doing this partisan thing and dragging it out, and it's just a bunch of nonsense to so many people.
And that's why the polls are turning against them.
The same thing could happen to Republicans.
Which hurts the president more?
A trial or no trial?
What do you think should happen?
The number is 888-727-BECK.
Let's go to John in Georgia.
Hello, John.
Glenn, how are you?
Very good.
Everybody there.
Hey, Merry Christmas to you.
Listen, I think there might be actually a third layer to this.
And give me just five seconds to explain this.
There's a potential Senate vote for dismissal, which is a simple majority.
There's a potential Senate vote for acquittal.
And then, of course, there's the full meal deal trial, which we all kind of in our hearts want.
But that middle option that Mitch McConnell has discussed previously of voting for acquittal right up front would actually attach double jeopardy.
So if you only dismiss, then the Senate could potentially, in his second term, excuse me, the House, in his second term, could come back on another bite-it-the impeachment at Apple.
If they acquit, double jeopardy attaches, and this thing from a political expediency standpoint would have to go away without the big messy trial in terms of the beltway politics.
So you vote for acquittal.
I actually want the trial, but I'm too much of a cynic to believe that that will actually get the result that we would actually hope and pray for.
Yeah, which is everything come out.
Exactly.
Yeah, I don't know if that's going to happen either.
But if you did a trial, and even if he were impeached, as long as the, and removed from office, as long as the Senate, and they don't have to do this, as long as the Senate wouldn't attach and you can never run for president again, because it's not automatically attached to that, you could impeach him, remove him from office, and the people could come back and elect him again this fall.
I just can't imagine a group of people removing a president this close to an election.
Thanks, John.
I appreciate it.
Let me go to Jim in Virginia.
Hey, Merry Christmas, Glenn.
Thank you for taking my call.
Thank you.
Thank you for all that you're doing to wake up and educate America.
Your crane special was truly an award-winning, award-worthy, journalistic investigation.
Thank you very much.
I appreciate that.
I'm for the full trial, and I think they should take your Ukraine special and use that as a blueprint for the trial.
But the problem is, I don't think the leading Democrats or excuse me, the leading Republicans in the Senate will do that, and this is the reason why.
And you touched on it last week when you talked about the one news agency that actually sent reporters to the Ukraine to do investigations over there, and they came back with a report stating that many of the leading Republicans in the Senate were also involved in Ukraine doing the same thing that the Democrats were doing,
trying to influence the Ukraine's government, being Lindsey Graham, McCain, the trader McCain, and McConnell.
So I am for the full trial, but my hopes of it ever happening are slim and nil.
I agree with you, Jim.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
I'm still for a full trial, but are you prepared to live with the consequence and not getting anything exposed?
Because I think Jim's right.
I don't see any, I mean, Stu, we have an open and shut case.
Do we not?
I mean, you know, what are you trying to prove, right?
I mean, we've even said that there's not, you know, it's not criminal activity.
No, I'm saying the whistleblower open and shut.
The collusion open and shut.
The money laundering open and shut.
All of this stuff, I think, is...
We have the documents to show it.
I mean, these are documents written by the people we're talking about.
Yeah, I mean, it's just open and shut.
Why won't anyone use them?
Why won't anyone in real authority and power step to the plate and use them?
I mean, the most we've heard from people in real positions of authority and power is that it's a very complicated storyline and that the American people don't have the attention span for it.
We sat through a year of the O.J. Simpson trial.
A year.
A long time ago, man.
It's a long time ago.
And we'll still do that for certain things.
But, you know, look what happened.
You know, there's an argument on the left.
And this, I think, was believed by many on the left that one of the errors they made with the Russia situation was to go through it in such detail.
So the idea was you have the whole Mueller report.
You're sort of have this entire storyline under the microscope for an entire year, year and a half.
And at the end of the day, the American people are like, oh, I've been hearing about this forever.
Nothing ever seems to come out.
Here's the report.
Doesn't seem like, it's not like the craziest thing, right?
Like there's stuff in there that might be disturbing to you, but it never rose to the level of interest that was promised.
It was a great trailer and a crappy movie, right?
And so this is why they went with the Ukrainian thing, which was, okay, we've got a simple storyline.
We've got a transcript of a call.
We think it's bad.
We can rush it through.
It will, when it's still shocking to people.
And they tried to do it quickly.
Now, I don't know if that's the right thing.
To me, it's certainly not the right thing for the country, obviously.
But I'm saying from a Democratic political perspective, was it the right move?
I think it's showing that that didn't work either.
One of the issues they have is that neither one of these situations was actually impeachable.
So that's kind of like you have a bad baseline.
And maybe that's different with the American people.
Because we have a good baseline.
However, can the American people focus long enough to actually take in all these details, learn all these characters, who they are, what happened?
I mean, it's a big ask for people who are like, who are currently embracing TikTok as a platform?
I know.
Let me go to Rachel in Ohio.
Hello, Rachel.
Hi.
Hi.
This is an early Christmas present for me.
You've got all my family.
Oh, wow.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
So I think we should go with a full trial, too.
And then pray like crazy because the truth has to come out.
And the truth actually will come out.
It's just, will it come out in our lifetime?
Yeah.
Well, the truth is already out, but nobody seems to embrace it.
And I personally think that the only one that can make this happen is Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is uniquely qualified to say, I might show up in the gallery today.
I might just walk in today and just decide to testify.
Or we got some crazy things happening today in the Senate.
Make sure you're watching.
I think he is such a sideshow that I think he could get people to actually watch the trial.
And if they expose it and people are watching the trial, I think it's the end of the Democratic Party.
I really, really do.
Because people are fair in America.
And when you actually see what they were doing and are still doing in Ukraine and all around the world with the State Department, nobody's going to want a part of that.
Devil's advocate, are you prepared for a loss?
Steve, welcome.
How are you doing, Glenn?
Good.
How are you?
Good.
Hey, you know, I'm thinking on this, when this goes to the Senate, the question is, are the Republicans even going to do anything with it?
Because any witnesses they call, Democrats are going to be able to cross-examine.
And I just have to ask myself, how many of these Republicans are just as dirty as the Democrats?
And you already see Lindsey Graham backing away from wanting a trial.
Where are you calling from?
I'm calling from Utah.
Steele Dossier Corroborated Facts 00:08:11
Romney country.
We're going to try and get rid of him.
So I heard this.
He's going on name recognition alone.
He does not represent Utah values.
I was in St. George, and granted it was St. George, which I think is the most conservative state, or the conservative county in Utah, which makes it the most conservative county in the country.
It was nice.
Anyway, I was there over the weekend, and somebody had told me Romney's in trouble.
He's not popular in the state.
Do you think that's true?
Yeah, we're fed up with him.
Like I said, I think people checked that box on the ballot because they recognized the name, but we're really hoping to get the word out that, you know, I mean, he's a wolf in sheep's clothing, and he always has been.
Interesting.
Thank you so much, Steve.
Appreciate it.
All right, we're going to come back here in just one minute back to your phone calls.
So are you keeping track?
What is the score so far?
Everyone said trial, right?
I know.
We'll wait till we hear someone say they don't want the trial, but I think, you know, look, this audience is going to want to hear the information and want others to hear it.
You know who doesn't take the weekend off?
I mean, besides Santa.
I mean, Santa takes the whole year off, except for, well, probably the last couple of weeks.
He's probably.
He just had these elves doing everything?
He has the elves doing everything, working around the clock.
He's probably just working on his whip for the reindeer.
You know, that's what, you know what he's like.
And then, mama, mama, the elf song's all wrong.
And I can't eat your food because it looks all purple.
You know what it's like up in the...
Anyway.
Seemed like a legitimate complaint on that last one.
Yeah, he does.
Did you ever notice his food when he sits down, she's eating, and she serves it, and it's like a chicken leg, and it's purple.
Everything on his plate is purple.
It's like, I wouldn't eat that either.
You're trying to fatt me up.
Why don't you just serve some good food, woman?
Woman.
Where's the Taco Bell?
Right.
Anyway, now one thing that hackers do is not take any weekends off.

In a recent example, seemingly legitimate phone calls from banks turned out to be a scam, resulted in a million dollars being stolen.
Last year alone, 26,000 people reported being a victim of some sort of phishing scam.

We break now for 10 seconds.
See, here's the problem is the media, and I want to play this audio of all of the things the media said about the Steele dossier.
We now know because of the IG report that everything in the Steele dossier was bogus.
The FBI could cooperate none of it, not a single thing.
With the asterisk, publicly available information.
That's their big out.
It's like, well, yes, some of the stuff that was already reported by the news seems to be corroborated, but only that.
So they got none of the stuff that was actually presented.
Nothing salacious, nothing that was bad.
All the, you know, Donald Trump has a strange hairdo.
Yep, yep, people have been saying that.
It's in the press.
It's a Trump organization.
Yep, yep, that's cooperated.
Okay, so none of the stuff that was trouble for Donald Trump had been cooperated.
Zero.
And the FBI changed some of the information and didn't tell the FISA court that none of this had been cooperated and that Steele himself had been, what did they say?
They closed the door on him.
I can't remember what they call it, but they close him out because they thought that he was untrustworthy.
They never said that.
Listen to what the press said over the last two years.
Parts of the now infamous dossier on Trump have proven to be true.
I know the history of the dossier, but it hasn't been discredited.
In fact, it's been the opposite.
It's been corroborated.
No, it hasn't.
Much of the dossier has been corroborated.
This discredited dossier.
It hasn't been discredited.
Your Intel community has corroborated all of the details in there, the meeting.
Some of the subsequent content of the dossier, we were able to corroborate in our intelligence community assessment.
That's true.
From other sources, in which we had very high confidence.
We know that with the FISA application, the relevant parts of Christopher Steele's dossier were corroborated.
If the application included information from the dossier, it would only be after the FBI had, in fact, corroborated information through its own investigation.
We also know that as time goes on, more and more parts of the Steele dossier get corroborated.
So when the president just refers to it as fake dossier, that is false.
I don't think that is an accurate characterization for the entirety of the dossier.
The dossier has been corroborated by the intelligence community.
U.S. investigators have corroborated some of the allegations in that dossier.
We do know that parts of it have been corroborated.
It's not been corroborated, but it hasn't been disproven either.
Is there anything in the dossier that has been disproven?
No.
Not one thing has been disproven.
No major thing from the dossier has been conclusively disproven.
Disproven.
To date, none of it has been disproven.
And whole big parts of it are holding up.
The dossier holds up well.
None of it has been disproven.
All of the allegations in it, I don't know that anything has been disproven.
It's a fact that none of it, not one word has been disproven.
In fact, can we stop there?
Stu, I just wanted to let you know.
Day 412 of my investigation in you, we still have not disproven that you're a murderer.
Really?
Yes.
Still cannot prove that you did not murder people.
So you can't account for me at every moment of my entire life.
Can't, can't.
And have a detailed thing.
And part of the murder spree that you're on has been cooperated.
I couldn't say this, Stu, if I hadn't have cooperated some of this.
Corroborated, yes.
Corroborated.
Yes.
Corroborate.
You're as good.
What is that one as I have an asterisk?
Yes.
Thank you.
So I couldn't.
I mean, I couldn't get away with just saying this.
Yes.
Well, you couldn't.
My sources tell me.
Well, you couldn't because you're Glenn Beck.
But if you're on CNN, you can get away with that.
Yes.
You can get away with saying this.
And will they account?
Is there an internal accounting process that comes to the point where, I mean, the worst one there was Allison Camarota, who says, what?
Every part of the dossier has been corroborated?
Like, that is like the most, I mean, we're talking about the P-tapes are in the dossier.
Like, of course, that hasn't been.
I mean, everyone at the beginning knew that was nonsense, right?
But did you notice that they changed from, well, some of it to none of it has been disproven.
Right.
Like the double negative there.
Yeah, that's crazy.
That is certainly not a news standard.
Is it?
Is that a journalistic news standard to report something that it hasn't been disproven?
I mean, that's not a thing, right?
No.
Not for journalists.
Russia.
Yeah, in Russia, it was.
Here, you're supposed to be innocent until proven guilty.
Proven guilty, not proven innocent.

All right, let me go to Joe in Florida.
We're talking about the impeachment trial on whether you want to see a trial or should the Trump administration take the advice of attorneys and just move on.
Joe, Mr. Beck, thank you for taking my call this morning.
I've been a listener for about 15 years.
I appreciate everything all you guys do.
Thank you.
I do not trust, like most of us, the media.
I vote for a full trial, but I do not think it should last longer than six months.
But I want the entire thing streamed right from the U.S. government if it's got to come from the White House.
And I want full access to that.
I don't want to have to wait on ABC, NBC, MS, NBC to cut away here, cut away there.
Stream it.
Make it there for everybody.
And I think if we do this in the new year 2020, this could light a spark worldwide saying, look what America is doing to shed light on corruption and bribery.
Iran, do the right thing now.
Do the, you know, everybody else, and it might just push things in a good direction.
All right.
Joe, thank you very much.
I appreciate it.
And the streaming idea is a good idea, and the government should make that available so we could see all of it.
Let me go to Preston because I'll tell you: the CNNs of the world are not going to go a month on trial without any commercials.
They just won't do it.
And you'll know when they take commercials.
Preston, Florida, go ahead.
Good morning, Glenn.
Happy Christmas.
Merry New Year.
And God bless you for all you do.
Thank you very much, Preston.
Yeah, I like doing it opposite.
I'll give you three words why this will not go to trial.
I want it to go to trial.
I want it all to come out, but three words, why it won't go to trial.
Okay.
Peter Schweitzer's book.
Peter Schweitzer.
When you read his book about Peter Schweitzer's book about the princes, when you read that and you see, yeah, exactly right.
They're all involved in this, Glenn.
If you just do your, you know, like you do your homework, and if you start to look into what they do, how the money goes overseas, and then it comes back to them in their, they set up their charities and the like.
You know, I did a little thing with Hillary Clinton and her foundation, the Clinton Foundation.
We gave money to Arizona.
I mean, to, I'm sorry, Arizona, gosh darn it.
We gave money to Algeria, you know, with government aid.
They donated, I think, $100,000 back to the Clinton Foundation.
So when you see this, you know what's going on.
And it's going to be, it's not going to go to trial.
They're going to do everything they can because they don't want all this stuff to come out because it will come out.
Yeah, that's the thing is eventually it will all come out.
And the longer it's hidden, the worse it will be for all of them.
Preston, thank you.
Mike in Texas, welcome.
Merry Christmas, Glenn.
Merry Christmas, Mike.
I do not think we should have a full trial.
I think the Senate should incorporate the Democrat record on impeachment from the House, incorporate it by reference, and then try the case based on that record.
And I'll tell you why.
It seems to me that it's very unlikely the president is going to be convicted and removed by the Senate.
So that means there's only two issues left.
One, will the American public view what the Senate does as fair?
And two, is this whole whistleblower scandal going to be swept under the rug?
So, it seems to me on the first point, it would be very difficult for the Democrats to argue that the record that they put together in the House that they used to impeach our president is now all of a sudden unfair to be used for purposes of the trial.
So, I think it would be regarded as fair.
And you could avoid the circus that we saw in the House, something that I think most reasonable people find abhorrent.
Secondly, with respect to the so-called whistleblower, it seems to me there is an entirely another way to deal with that problem.
And that is, wholly apart from this impeachment thing, have Lindsey Graham open up an investigation into the leak that occurred in the conversation that Trump had with Zelensky.
There was a leak there.
That's how this whistleblower apparently got information about what was on the call.
You could use that investigation to determine what really happened with this so-called whistleblower.
So, if you need to get those facts out, there is an alternative way that is a lot more effective than burying all of that in the context of impeachment.
So, what is the process of impeachment that you were talking about, where you bring the record over from the House?
You just simply incorporate that record, the whole thing, the evidence, the documents, the speeches, everything.
All right, so that means that you send it over to the Senate, and everybody points to it and says, That is the record on which we will vote on conviction.
I don't think the Senate should somehow rescue the House for the deficient record they've put together.
Let them try the case on the same record as the House used to impeach him in the first place.
All right, so that means Chuck Schumer wouldn't get his, you know, John Bolton and everybody else.
So, they couldn't bring any new witnesses.
We're just going over what they did in the House.
Exactly.
And if it was reasonable to be used for purposes of impeachment, which is a pretty serious thing, then why would it be unreasonable or unfair to use that very same record to use for purposes of voting on conviction and then go after the scandals in a different context?
All right, Mike, good idea.
Thank you very much.
Curtis, do you want to see a trial or not?
Well, thanks for taking my call, Reverend Dr. Colonel Beck.
Thank you for getting it right.
Finally, you got it.
Yeah, thank you.
I really love the show, especially when Pat and Stewart are on.
But as far as the I think they should have a trial, but only if they're going to hold anyone found guilty accountable.
I think the American people are tired of the elites and the politicians getting away with whatever they want.
And I think it would hurt Trump and the Republicans' chances of taking the House back if they were to find someone guilty and not hold them accountable.
I agree with you.
I think it hurts even more.
Have you seen what happened last week in England with Boris Johnson?
That people will only stand and take so much.
And now Boris has real power to start making real changes there.
And he apparently is going for it.
He's going to be making some deep, deep cuts in personnel and ministers and really changing the landscape over in England.
And I think Donald Trump, if this is done right, Donald Trump will have the chance to do the same because the people are going to want it.
They are really sick and tired of all of this.
Lori, North Carolina.
Hi.
Hi, Glenn.
This stuff makes me want to cry like Hillary's supporters cried last election.
But listen, Andy McCarthy was on Fox News and he said that they go right in as attorneys and they say, we want a motion to dismiss.
There were no facts in the first article.
And in the second, the president has executive privilege, doesn't he?
And I think John Roberts should just dismiss the whole thing.
And going back to the caller a couple of times ago, Binman was the Laker.
Why shouldn't he be court-martialed?
Who?
Binman.
Yeah, we don't necessarily know that for sure, but there is definitely.
He told two people, and then they wouldn't let him say who the second person was.
Right.
But we know that he was the Laker.
Well, yeah.
Yeah, and I appreciate the call.
I mean, it's interesting because I think you're looking at this as if you're looking at it as winning the impeachment, right?
Making sure he is not removed from office, it makes plenty of sense to just dismiss it.
But when you look at it as what this process actually is, which is a partisan process with the intent not to remove the president from office, they never thought they were going to remove the president from office.
The intent is to win political points, right?
It's to please their AOC wing of supporters who have wanted impeachment since before he was elected.
And it's also to try to sway people in the middle who now see him branded as an impeached president.
All that's going to happen anyway on their side.
The question is, do you bring evidence to the table to fight against it?
And you can just dismiss the cases and then bring this out in a committee or something, but no one's going to pay attention to it.
If you want people to pay attention to it, it's got to happen during the actual Senate trial.
And, you know, if you think this information is important enough and the American people need to know it, that's where you've got to put it.
Straight in the marquee.
I don't think we are the country that we hope to be, want to be.
We are not the country of the Declaration of Independence and certainly not the country of the Constitution if we don't change and root out what we saw happen.
I mean, the bar is so low for an impeachment now.
It's truly remarkably ridiculous.
It is so low.
And if people can get away with this and get away with the lies, get away with the, you know, the FISA report even, just get away with just the FISA report of the FBI and the Justice Department.
That doesn't include what the Intel community did.
It doesn't include the lies that were told under oath in the House.
It doesn't include any of the lies that the media told or that Schiff told or the monitoring of journalists.
If we don't root this out, if somebody doesn't pay a very high price for this, it's going to become business as usual.
Goldline Precious Metals Hedge 00:03:48
You will embolden them to do the same thing over and over and over again.
But I tend to agree with the people that we're talking here in the last 45 minutes.
The people who said it's not going to come out, I think are right.
And I think they're right because there are too many dirty people in Washington, D.C.
And that's honestly where Mike Lee and others, you know, if you could find a Tulsi Gabbard, I think Tulsi Gabbard would be on this.
I think she would despise what's going on.
And you could make the Democratic Party, the Whig Party, overnight, overnight.
And you could make the Republicans kind of like the old 1860s Democrats.
And that's not a good place for the Republicans to be.
But I think there is a new way that is waiting to happen because the corruption here is so deep.
People feel it in their gut, too.
They know it.

Real Prince In Kelowna Italy 00:03:06
Welcome to the program.
Glad to uh glad to be with you today.
I um I had a very weird weekend.
Uh, on Friday, uh, I went to a friend's house, and um, the Prince of Hawaii and the Prince of Italy were there, obviously.
I mean, who doesn't hang out with royalty?
They're just they seem to be at every party these days, right?
Right.
So, I guess the Prince of Hawaii, if America hadn't taken over Hawaii, he would be king today.
And the Prince of Italy would be king, I think, if it wasn't for Mussolini.
Okay, all right.
Uh, and so it was just a it was a you know, it was a bizarre.
I didn't, you know, I thought when at first, he said, Prince Lorenzo is going to be there.
And I'm like, okay.
And I just thought Prince was his first name.
You know, not a real prince.
Whose house do you go over where there's like a prince?
You know?
And so I get there.
And Glenn, this is Prince Lorenzo from Italy.
And he was like, oh, Glenn, how are you?
He was so, and I realized, I think this guy's a real prince.
And then I didn't want to say, are you like a real prince?
Or is that like your name?
Can you plead pass the jelly?
I didn't want to be that guy.
I didn't want to be that guy.
So I just leaned over to somebody.
I'm like, he's a real prince, isn't he?
I mean, is he a real prince?
They're like, yeah, it's Prince Lorenzo.
And I'm like, I'm sorry.
I don't know my royalty.
Is this the guy that was on The Bachelor?
Maybe what's he look like?
Somebody said that to me, and I think that's a good idea.
He's very handsome.
I would say he was a very handsome man.
Well, let me see.
Let me see.
Blonde hair.
I don't know.
Is this so anyway?
Yeah, I'll show it to you in the break.
Yeah, he might be.
Somebody else said that, and I don't know if that's the same guy or not.
But he all of a sudden fell in love with my wife because she's a Kelowna.
And he's like, oh, Kelowna.
Me and my Kelowna and my family way back.
Michelangelo.
And then he just la I would not worry about a guy from The Bachelor falling in love with your wife at all.
It's no big deal.
Don't even think about it.
Think about it again.
You don't know.
See, I thought it was about history and some travel.
We're starting up.
Wait a minute.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
So I just got news that, am I the cover of the New Republic?
I hope so.
I hope so.
I don't know the answer to that.
They're picking apart your coverage on Ukraine.
Apparently you're nuts, which is a real shocker to hear from the New Republic.
But you are the conservative blowhard has transformed from a never-Trumper to a Ukraine conspiracist.
New Republic Cover Controversy 00:15:26
Oh, really?
That's the subtitle.
Really?
Yes.
Very excited about this one.
That's strange because you would think that maybe a guy who was not for Trump might have something to say.
Why suddenly is he for Trump on this one?
My belief in their take on that is that you've decided it's more profitable for you to be for Trump than against him.
So you've decided to switch your view because it's a really in-depth analysis of the situation, as is always the case.
Oh, I love this.
I love this.
Okay.
We've got a few things to talk to you about Christmas, some lighter sides of it, what's happening with China, Lindsey Graham, if we can get to it.
And I think we should just check out this article where they're saying that I'm scholarly now.
Wow.
Hmm.
Not really.
You mean they don't mean it?
Hello, America.
It's Monday.
And you know what?
We're practically on vacation mode.
I don't know about you, but the holidays, the holiday parties, I'm kind of in vacation mode.
I'm kind of still thinking, have I gotten everything for the kids?
How many days before we go on vacation?
What is it that we're going to eat for Christmas Eve?
What is it we're going to eat Christmas Day, Christmas night, day after Christmas?
What are the leftovers going to be like?
Can I get my son to eat less so there's more for me?
Those kinds of holiday programme questions are still on my mind.

And welcome to the program.
So glad that you are here.
Stu, are you, what did you do this weekend?
Anything holiday related?
Yeah, I saw like some Christmas shows.
What did you see?
Christmas shows.
There's a big, one of the big churches here in the area that does a very spectacular Christmassy thing.
Oh, and we're going to do that.
No, it's called Prestonwood.
That is church.
And they do.
They had camels on stage and zebras and all sorts of crazy stuff.
Churches start to have stages.
Well, I mean, I don't know.
I'm calling it a stage because it was a Christmas show, but I mean, it was the place where people stand and play music.
Oh, really?
Is that not a bad, is that a bad description for a stage?
No, no, no.
I just wondered.
I mean, I never have stages.
It's the big church criticism you're doing, which is why I'm being different.
It's this thing where like, oh, well, that's a big church.
They have a stage.
Or what if churches never have stages?
I like where you stand when you do music.
I don't know.
There's always good people standing somewhere.
You go to Gateway from time to time.
I love those.
I love the mega churches.
I do.
I know.
Sure, you do.
I think that's always a weird criticism.
It's like, oh, I can't think their music's too good.
They're all like talented musicians.
What is this?
A concert?
No.
Oh, I love that.
It drives me crazy.
I love that.
It's like, let them go up there.
So what?
They're talented.
So what?
I don't understand.
I hear it all the time.
It's like, I go to my church.
Occasionally, I go to Gateway and I love their music.
And, you know, sometimes, you know, sometimes we kind of struggle.
And, you know, we put a few people together and you're like, well, that's what you get when you pay for a band to come on and rehearse all week.
All week.
You get good, good music.
You get good music.
There's nothing wrong with having that thing.
But yeah, it was really, it was amazing.
I mean, crazy.
I mean, like, it was a legitimately good Christmas show.
The Rockefeller.
Yeah, I mean, it had elements very similar to that.
So it was the birth of Christ and stuff.
Yeah, it has that.
Yeah.
And it had all sorts of like warm holiday stuff, you know, like it kind of had the, you could tell it's something that were people who necessarily aren't churchgoers might go and take in some really nice holiday moments and then take in the story the real story of Christmas.
I think that's great.
I think so too.
I like those things.
Texas is different.
I mean, the South is different, but Texas is really different.
Nobody's afraid to say Merry Christmas here.
You got like a, hey, Merry Christmas.
Yeah, happy holidays.
What's wrong with you?
You know, from around these parts.
I mean, it's very, I remember the first time I went to a doctor here.
I moved here and the doctor, you know, goes through everything and, you know, I'm butting up and buttoning up my shirt and pulling my pants after being horribly violated, but that's a different story.
And he's just signing off a bunch of stuff and he said, so let's talk about your spiritual health.
How's your spiritual health?
I was like, what?
I mean, I just come from New York.
What do you spiritual health?
What are you talking about?
Where's the camera?
Where's the what's going on?
You have an x-ray for that?
It was just so refreshing, so nice to see somebody actually not afraid.
And it's just, it's different.
You know, I saw President Trump on TV today, and he's like, we're saying Merry Christmas.
And I had forgotten what it was like to live up north where it's like, don't you say Christmas?
Christmas ain't about Christ.
It's got Christ in the name.
It just ends with mus.
And I ain't around here.
We're not talking about no Christ.
It's about the winter solstice.
They always have those stories.
The left is always mocking the right for saying, the war on Christmas.
This is no, there's no war on Christmas.
But it's like, you know, every year there's more and more stories of, you know, something like this being removed from the public square somewhere.
You're not allowed to, you know, I mean, you know, I send my kids to a religious school and there it's very, very prominent, the Christ and Christmas.
However, like you, we have friends who go to public schools, even here in Texas, who have only happy holidays parties, only Merry Winter parties.
This is Texas, right?
Like, I mean, I. You've lost the educational system here.
Yeah.
I mean, there's plenty of people who still love Christmas.
That's not the thing.
It's certainly there, but there is that movement that, you know, we used to mock.
It used to be the guy.
Remember the guy who used to always file the lawsuits that was, you know, wanted to take in God We Trust off the money?
And he would file every six months, there'd be a new one of those.
And a lot of the requests he made in those lawsuits and the conversation surrounding those lawsuits was about stuff like that, which at the time, 10 years ago, was seemingly ridiculous.
I got to not say Merry Christmas in schools.
They're going to have happy holidays parties only.
And over time, it just becomes, well, of course, at school, they're going to say, you know, Merry Winter.
Of course, obviously.
It's something we all accept now.
These things move quickly, quickly.
They go from, you know, they get to acceptance pretty darn fast.
The tolerance thing is never, I mean, it's, it's never tolerance.
Like, tolerance is never enough.
You're never going to be woke enough for any of these movements, as people like Pete Buttigieg are finding out because he's not gay enough, apparently.
Well, in my kids' school, They have, they had to buy snacks.
It's snack week.
Snack week.
And apparently, every week is snack week for me.
By the way, apparently, they can buy snacks throughout the day or whatever.
I don't know what it is.
And they're like, Dad, it's snack week.
Can we get some extra money for some snacks?
And I'm like, what?
Sure, look.
And it's a thing from the school, and it says it's snack week, so you can eat snacks and buy snacks.
And then the last line is, and snack week, all the proceeds go help fight global warming.
And I just looked at my kids and I said, Guess who's not having snacks this week?
I don't care if you're hungry or not.
I don't care if you want a snack or not.
Now in my cash.
Oh, man.
This is what they always do with schools.
I walked out of school so many times in protest.
I have no idea why I walked out on any of those times.
We constantly have these like school walkouts and we do marches around town to protest something.
And I was always involved in it because we were leaving school, right?
Like, what am I going to do?
Stay in school and not walk out and do something that's supposed to be important.
How did this happen?
When did this happen?
Because what do we mean?
10 years apart?
35, I think?
35, 36 years apart, something like that.
Shut up.
I don't remember exactly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we're not that far apart.
We're not that far apart.
And like school for you was, I mean, I went to school in Canada.
We were getting paddled by our nuns in school.
And you were like, yeah, we were going to McDonald's to protest.
Oh, well, that is where I would wind up typically.
We would go out, we'd walk out of the door for the walkout, and then we'd continue walking when the rest of the people took a left and we'd keep going straight and go to like the convenience store or McDonald's.
Did you grow up at least in the generation?
Because you're first year millennial, right?
I mean, I joke about that.
There's one study that says it begins in 1976, which is when I was born.
However, most studies say it's like 1981 for millennials.
But I like to say I'm the first millennial.
I'm the godfather of the millennials.
I was born in February 1976, basically the first one.
I don't know.
I only do that to torture millennials because I actually don't want to be one, but they really don't like it when I say I'm one of them.
So I say it.
So I say it.
I say it.
I said it there.
So we're not that different in age.
And yet, were you at least at least more afraid of getting in trouble at home than you were at school?
Like when you got in school, they could beat you almost to death.
Just don't tell my folks.
I did not go to a school where they would beat me to death.
Well, nobody actually died.
Okay.
Sister Sunniver.
She knew.
She was very good.
She knew when to stop.
Yeah.
Okay.
No, but I mean, literally, I could have begged her, please, I'll take any punishment.
You can cut off my fingers.
Just don't tell my parents because it would always be worse.
Yeah, I mean, certainly you wouldn't want that to go home with you.
I was, you know, I got in a lot of trouble at times at school, but mostly for just being a wise ass.
That was my general, which is a shock.
I know everyone in the audience was really stunned about that.
Well, I mean, I didn't think.
I mean, I mean, I know it's a different level when you're what, shivving people in the hall?
Yeah, I was in the bathroom shivving people.
I mean, you know, I wasn't a, I did have some occasional issues with certain teachers, figures of authority.
Like what kind of issues?
I didn't always get along with them.
You know, I was not always.
Really?
Yeah, I didn't fall in line as far as like when I thought they were giving me a hard time.
I tended to point that out, which didn't necessarily help my academic future.
So did you sit in the back with the Ruffians?
The Ruffians.
Yeah.
Hey, no malarkey here.
No malaria.
We are on the no malarkey tour.
No, I mean, I wasn't, you know, I wasn't a, I'm not, I was no rebel or anything, but I just was a wise ass to everybody.
So I, you know, I occasionally got in trouble, but I was, you know, when it came down to these things where like there were these big movements, and I think it was probably stuff like, we need funding for new tennis courts or something.
I was in Connecticut.
These are not real problems.
But whatever it was, whether I supported it or not, I just walked out with the group because I didn't want to be at school.
And this was like, this was a situation.
And I think this is a legitimate problem today, which is, and I was right in the area where this began, I think, where activism began to be praised by adults when children did it, not as a means to an end, but just the end.
The end itself is, are you activist?
Are you involved in your community?
Do you care about things?
That's great.
And we should praise that behavior.
May I just say there's a happy medium.
We went from, I had dinner one time with my family at Richard Mellon Scafe's house.
Do you remember him?
Yeah.
Yeah, I think people know who Richard Mellonscafe is.
Okay, so he was from the Carnegie Mellon family.
That's how people might know him.
Okay, anyway.
So he was like, you know, 80, and he, I think, was the last like Vanderbilt, the last one that grew up with tremendous, tremendous incomprehensible wealth.
His like sixth birthday party, I saw a picture of him at his sixth birthday party at the table.
Everybody was in black tie.
The kids were in dresses, and they had black tie butlers standing behind every chair for the kids and this big, huge cake on the, I mean, it was like, and that was during the Depression.
I said, when was this taken?
Said, I think that was 1936.
I said, so it wasn't hard for your family to depression.
He's like, nope, didn't notice it.
But anyway, and we went to his house one time.
He invited us to his house and we stayed with him.
Dallas Mosquitoes And Jesus 00:16:43
And I brought my children.
And we came down for dinner.
We'll be having dinner at 6 p.m.
And so we came down for dinner and there were not enough chairs to include the children.
And so we were like, are we having dinner by ourselves?
How is this working?
And we didn't want to sit down.
And then he kind of came in and he was like, oh, the children.
Like, oh, children.
And he said, well, they'll be eating in the kitchen with the staff.
And I was like, what?
A version of the kiddie table, kind of.
Yeah.
And he grew up in a time where children were seen, but not heard.
You'd pat them on the head and then the staff would take them.
You know what I mean?
Or, you know, my grandfather, we didn't have any staff, obviously.
You know, the chicken would take us, I guess.
But, you know, it was like, you didn't, you didn't interrupt.
You didn't tell elders what to do.
You didn't, you didn't speak unless spoken to.
You know, that kind of a thing when you were in a crowd with adults.
We've gone too far the other way.
Yeah.
The middle there is really pretty good.
Yeah, that's really pretty.
There's a line between having the kids eat in the other room with the chickens and the staff and Greta Thunberg being time person of the year.
Right.
There's a place in the world.
And I think that's, I think on everything, I think it's at that place where we should hang out more.
I want to tell you about the Rectech Grills.
RekTech Grill is, go to rectechgrills.com right now, Stu, would you?
Look at these things.
They are so incredible.
Oh, yeah.
They are built to last.
And I know this sounds like a hassle.
It's 80 pounds heavier than the next competitor.
But I say that because it's built so solid.
They've put the money instead of into a middleman.
They put the money into the grill.
So it's really, really solid and it's got great wheels.
So it's easy to move around.
I mean, can you see the difference on any grill?
I mean, it looks ridiculous.
I mean, and I am totally obsessed with the technology on this thing where like you are looking at the, you are setting, like it's an oven, like setting the exact temperature with an app of how you want it cooked.
It's got all the details.
You can start it when you're not even home.
Like if you want to fire up your grill when you're on the other side of the house.
You want one of these, don't you?
No, I don't.
I can see it in your eyes.
You want one.
Lisa, he's talking to you right now.
He's not even talking to me.
It's whatever.
It's rectgirls.com.
I mean, whatever.
If you happen to be there, if she happened to be searching and landed on rectgirls.com, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.
Right.
I mean, the holidays are coming up.
Right.
You know, right around the corner.
Yeah, but you're not saying that.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
That would be ridiculous if I just requested a specific present.
Even though that's what she does with you.
Oh, she sends me links.
Right.
She makes it very easy.
I just have to enter in the credit card information.
It's already filled out, honey, the address, everything.
It's coming pre-wrap.
Just all I need is a credit card number.
RekTech Grills.
These are far and away the best bang for your buck because they've cut out the middleman.
But do your own homework and then look into RekTech.
Go online and find them in social media on Facebook.
And I think they're on Instagram as well.
It's a lifestyle.
It is a family.
It's a group of people that just love to grill and share their grilling experience and their recipes and everything else.
This is built to last.
RekTechGrills.com.
That's with an S, RekTechGrills.com.
We break for 10 seconds, Station ID.
I have to get this off my desk here because it's been sitting here for a while.
And I just don't want it sitting on my desk anymore.
And it's this story.
A man whose farts kill mosquitoes claims to have been signed up by an insect repellent company probing the secret of his killer gas.
He is from Kampala, Uganda.
And he says Buffins has launched a study into the chemical properties of his trouser toxin.
Trouser toxin?
That's what it says in the story.
I mean, it's got to be from, what, the New York Times?
What's the source?
He says, he says, it's the son from the UK.
Oh, wow.
He says, in his home village, no one has ever had malaria because his gas can knock out mosquitoes over a six-mile radius.
Now, if that is true, that would make his fallout zone larger than that of the atomic bomb, which destroyed Hiroshima in 1945.
He is known apparently all over town as the man who can kill mosquitoes with his farts.
Now, nowhere in the story.
I mean, do you have any you have any questions here at this point?
One of our school walkouts was over this guy.
No, no, no, seriously.
Do you have any questions?
As a reporter, as an interested person, do you have any questions?
How does it kill mosquitoes?
Okay.
I would just be like, what is the, what is it like for humanoids?
What's his diet like?
Yeah.
Exactly.
What does he eat?
And is he married?
Does he have any friends?
Does he live alone?
Does it just kill mosquitoes?
You're taking for granted this is true.
You're not asking any questions on the science on how someone can blow up at a Hiroshima style area with this.
I don't.
You're just assuming it's true.
I don't imagine that they would make this up.
It says in the story, he has to wear charcoal-based underwear pads in his pants all the time.
The filter.
You don't think this story is true?
I believe all news sources that use the term trouser toxin.
That's just one of my favorites.
That's the official name of it.
This is the Glenbeck program.

I want to tell you something they're doing in Dallas that I think is really, really cool.
Operation Care is having a birthday party celebration for Jesus.
You can find the information at opcare.org.
Susie Jennings is on with us.
Susie was with Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, and then she resigned that.
She left there, and she started Operation Care and said God's leading her life, and this is one of the things they're doing.
And I just, I love this story.
Hello, Susie.
Good morning, Glenn.
How are you?
I am blessed.
Thank you.
Yeah, great.
All right.
So you in Dallas, you're known as the blanket lady.
And that's why.
Because I started the ministry giving away blankets after my husband of nine years disappeared from our home.
He was in the military, committed suicide from a mental illness.
He developed chemical imbalance called serotonin deficiency and then left, disappeared 30 days and was missing.
We found his body in Otoka, Oklahoma.
And when we found him, he had been dead for 30 days.
We found him in a ravine in the hills of Otoka.
And he was hiding there.
And the farmer found his car.
And the farmer only would go there once a month.
And that's how his car was found.
But he was missing March 9th.
We discovered him April 8th, 1993.
I'm sorry to hear that, Susie.
But that changed your life.
You started getting involved with the homeless here in Dallas and started giving away blankets.
And now you're doing a birthday party for Jesus, which I've always asked my kids and everybody thinks I'm making this up.
I think every Christmas dinner, you should sing happy birthday and you should have candles on the cake.
Now, maybe not, you know, 2020, but you should have candles on the cake because it's Jesus' birthday.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, and so that's really what happened after my husband committed suicide.
The Lord's put in my heart to help the homeless under the bridge living in downtown Dallas.
And in the beginning, I really said, no, I'm not going to do that.
They are crazy.
They just like free stuff.
And I could not stand homeless people.
And the thing was, I asked God, what could I do for him after my husband died?
Because I choose joy.
So I asked God, what can I do for you?
So I tell you, Glenn, do not ask God.
What can you do for him if you're not prepared?
Yeah, he'll tell you.
Yeah, he's going to take you out of your comfort zone.
So that's what it all started about: just a blanket in the streets.
So they called me blanket lady for eight years.
That was what I did as a supervisor in Baylor Hospital.
At the same time, I was helping the homeless.
And then God gave me a big vision of holding this massive birthday party for Jesus where the guests are the homeless and the poor of Dallas for awards.
So that's we started that in 2004.
So now we are 16 years old, Dallas Convention Center, the nation's largest event for the homeless and the poor with 10,000 to 21,000 people.
We have 3,700 volunteers that come in one day to serve the poor and the homeless.
And the heart of the ministry is prayer and evangelism.
We tell them about God.
We don't force nothing.
We just ask them, How can we pray for you?
Because it gives them hope.
And then after that, we wash their feet.
So we wash thousands of feet and put on socks and shoes.
And we gave away blankets, sleeping bags, haircuts, makeover, flu shots, eyeglasses, dentists, free lawyers, job counseling, housing availability.
We partner with the community.
And the children alone have a massive area.
They have zip lines.
They have rock wall climbing, pony rides, petting zoo, face painting, balloon artists.
And now the vision has grown.
Dallas is leading America.
We're going to hold this party in 50 states next year.
This year, next, this Saturday, 12 states representatives from different states are flying to Dallas.
New York, I mean, we have massive, we have Chicago, we have New York, we have Utah, we have Maryland, Florida, and we have Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Kansas, Georgia, Nebraska.
I mean, they're flying here to see how Dallas helped the poor and the homeless.
And they will copy it in all the states next year, one day 2020, wherein the whole America will celebrate Jesus in the same day.
How great is that?
Now, Susie, let me ask you: you listed off an awful lot of stuff that's happening, and I did not hear the magic words: cake or cake-like substance.
Well, we have 5,000 cupcakes.
Okay, all right.
Okay.
Yeah, so we have a birthday party.
We have a birthday party after at 12 noon.
We have a girl.
She is now Miss Cinderella.
She's going to sing happy birthday, Jesus.
And then we celebrate with 5,000 cupcakes.
We're expecting 12,000 people, Glenn.
6,000 are DISD children, and 6,000 adults are coming.
And 3,000 of these children are homeless.
So they don't have any homes.
Sounds like you need more cupcakes.
How can people help?
Well, Right now we are desperately needing coats, shoes, and toys for children, and adult coats for adult large to 3x for men.
Those are the biggest, largest need for operation care.
But they could really give us the funds wherein we could order in bulk because a coat, if we order it, it's only $11.
If you buy it, it's like $20 to $30.
So if they give us money, go to our website, opcare.org, opcarre.org, and then they could donate, or if they want to sponsor a child, it's $30 that go to a toy, a coat, and a pair of shoes for a child.
And we have 3,000 children that don't have anything right now because we could not afford it.
I'm just a little widow trying to help 12,000 people.
So I'm, and we are in, and I quit my job, if you're aware of it.
I left.
Yeah, I did leave my job.
Yeah, yeah.
You sound like just a little widow to be reckoned with.
Like a little widow of a tornado.
Susie, thank you so much.
And bless you for all you're doing.
And I wish we could be there.
If I wasn't out of town, we would be there.
But good luck and congratulations.
So that's Susie Jennings.
If you'd like to help, it's opcare, opcare.org.
And as she said, next year it's going to be spreading into all 50 states.
There's a couple of other things, Christmas, that you might be interested in.
If you're looking for something to give to, let me give you a couple of ideas.
One, the Nazarene Fund.
There is nothing better than freedom for Christmas because that's really what the Christ Child is all about.
Freedom from our past, freedom from our mistakes.
But this is actual freedom, the Nazarene Fund or OUR.org.
You can go to the Nazarenefund.org and donate.
For I think it's now $25, something like that.
You can free a person and get them to safety.
nazarenefund.org thenazarenefund.org or you can go to our.org and that specifically goes for sex trafficking and children all around the world.
Christmas Miracle Freedom Fund 00:06:52
Also, it's actually to fight that.
We want to make sure that that's clear.
Yeah.
It's to fight sex trafficking for children around the world.
Just to be to put a fine point on that.
Thank you.
I think it's an important distinction.
Also, if there is any room for you to help an individual out, you might know individuals that need help.
But if you don't, there is somebody who has been a guest on our program before, and he has paid a very high price for his changing his viewpoint.
He was a university professor at NYU for years.
He lost his job there.
He is taking odd jobs.
He's doing anything he can, but I have a feeling he's about to lose literally everything.
And there is a GoFundMe page, and you can just look for support freedom fighter Michael Rectenwald, R-E-C-T-E-N, WALD, W-A-L-D, Rectenwald, and donate.
I think somebody started this page, and I think like $15,000 would change his world.
I would strongly urge you to help if you have the money to help him here.
Here's a guy who has been literally left in the cold and is friendless.
And I don't want him to be homeless as well.
And he's written some great books recently trying to make some money.
But you could also just buy his book, The Google Archipelago, which is all about the truth about Google.
Quickly, a clarification, because we did mention that the money goes to fight trafficking, not to support it.
We should also give the correct website, which is ourrescue.org.
Thanks.
The other one might go to supporting it.
I don't know.
Close to me.
Oh, the other website.
I had this whole thing.
Oh, you had a whole scam mapped out and I screwed it up.
I'm sorry.
I screwed it up.
Ourrescue.org.
Yeah, thank you.
A couple of other ideas on Christmas.
If you are looking for something of educational value for your children, if you're looking for books, I want to tell you about a website called welleducatedheart.com.
Go ahead, look it up.
See if the money is going to traffic children.
Welleducatedheart.com.
This was started by a woman named Marlene Peterson.
And years ago, I got a collection of these books.
And I honestly cannot tell you why I didn't talk about them on the air, but I didn't.
And I recently found out she thought that that was a miracle.
She thought trying to get me to talk about it would be a miracle, but then I didn't.
And she said, now that was the miracle because it would have made things worse because at the time, these books were worth a lot of money.
And now she's found a way to get them in people's hands for really, really low prices.
And what they are are, these are the stories of America.
And if you go to welleducatedheart.home, look for the Freedom series or the Libraries of Hope.
And what she's done is she's taken all of the old books and the old stories and she's put them all together in a series.
And it's the Freedom series under Libraries of Hope.
And I can't recommend them any higher.
These are the stories and the ones that you can trust and educate your children with.
Do I have time to tell you my Christmas miracle from the other day?
Yeah.
So I'm driving home on my way home from being out.
It's late, eight, nine o'clock.
Not late, late, but dark.
And so I pull out.
I'm about half a mile away.
I know I need to get some gas.
Half a mile away from the gas station.
Pull out, start accelerating.
It's up a hill.
7-Eleven's on my right-hand side, about a half mile up.
Get about halfway up the hill, quarter mile away now.
The car starts sputtering.
And I realize I'm running out of gas.
So I try to accelerate a couple times.
It doesn't do anything.
So now I'm at the point, like, can I glide to this gas station?
Because it's uphill.
It's dark.
It's somewhat cold.
It's cold for Texas.
I don't want to deal with this in the middle of the night.
So I throw it into neutral and I'm gliding up and I'm getting closer and closer, but I'm going really slow at this point.
And I'm uphill.
And I'm like, I think I'm going to make it into the entrance of this gas station.
So I'm picturing, you know, you're mentally repping yourself.
Like, I'm going to pull in.
I'm going to glide up over and pull right into where you can put, you know, you can put gas in the car at the pump.
And as I pull in, I get to the entrance and there's someone parked in the side where my gas tank would be.
So I have to somehow figure out how to turn around.
I'm still gliding.
I'm still gliding.
So I have no gas at all.
I'm inching up and I'm trying to attempt a three-point turn with just momentum.
Like I'm just going up and it's a little bit of a hill.
And so I'm kind of backing up and turning the wheel at the same time.
It's going, I mean, I'm going like one half of a mile an hour now, but I'm in the parking lot.
And I turn the wheel as hard as I can, and it's coming down the hill.
And I can only get it to it's like a 45-degree angle to the pump.
I can't actually pull up to the side of it.
It's just about a 45-degree angle to the pump.
And as I'm trying to like just inch a little bit more, I press the gas one more time in literally nothing.
It wasn't even sputtering anymore.
I had legitimately run out of gas.
And I pulled up and I pulled it.
I put it in park and I pull the hose down, fully extended, just gets in to the actual car into the gas pump.
This is one second earlier.
If I had run out of gas, I would not have made it.
And here it is, a miracle.
Did you, see, I don't believe this at all.
You didn't believe this smart guy.
No, this is a little bit of a drink.
No, you saw this on the Hallmark.
You saw this on the Hallmark channel.
It is on that level.
It's that good of a story.
And that is why, that's why Stu knows God lives.
By the way, when you're sending all your money to all your various organizations that Glenn was supporting that do all these great things, first of all, I need gas money, obviously.
I just told you that story.
But second of all, Blazetv.com use the promo code GB20Off.
It's a great present on the holidays for yourself or somebody else.
So support good conservative fact-finding and entertainment.
You buy Christmas gifts for yourself, Stu?
Yes, that kind of greedy guy you are.
Yes, I do.
That's also in the hallmark.
You've got a crappy bad business guy in every Christmas movie.

and maybe those who are currently saying that the president has to go and everything else is a conspiracy theory that perhaps they should watch.
