Glenn Beck, Dr. Voddie Baucham, and Dr. Scott Atlas dissect the integration of Black Lives Matter curricula in schools like NYC and Wake County, which they describe as cult-like indoctrination funded by the Ford Foundation. Baucham argues critical theory redefines racism as systemic, excluding biblical Christianity, while Atlas contends keeping schools open during the pandemic protects children better than lockdowns that increase abuse risks. The trio links these educational shifts to broader cultural Marxism pushed by Barack Obama, election fraud concerns involving a deceased cat's voter registration, and corporate hypocrisy regarding PPP loans, ultimately warning that failing to resist this ideology leads to the loss of Christian freedom and societal collapse.

Let's all remember and all recite war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength, and who controls the past controls the future and who controls the present controls the past.
Oh, it's great to live in 1984 in 2020 and we've got quite a show coming up for you today.
You don't want to miss a single second of it.
Let me just give you an update quickly though.
New data from the NYPD shows 68 shootings across the city in the last week.
Dozens dead.
92 people were shot in the city during the period spanning from midnight on July 5th until July 11th.
That looks like there was some shootings, you know, way, way up in Chicago.
No big deal.
Only 64 people were shot.
13 of them fatally over the weekend.
One of them was a 15-year-old kid.
Another one was a 17-year-old boy.
A 14-year-old boy in Chicago shot in the back.
But don't worry about it.
AOC, she's all over it.
She said that this weekend, the reason why this crime wave is happening is because of the record unemployment in the United States and the fact that people have this economic desperation.
And they're only doing this violent kind of act.
Well, I mean, we all know why, right?
Because they're forced to shoplift to be able to get a loaf of bread.
Oh.
Okay.
Ignorance is knowledge.
I got it.
Welcome to the program.
We begin in one minute.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
All right, cyber criminals.
You know what they love?
Turbulent times.
Good thing we don't have any of that going on.
Recently, a bunch of emails went out that included Black Lives Matter in the subject line.
If you clicked on them, well, you're a dope.
But if you clicked on them, you got a nice gift of malware virus known as Trickbot.
Oh, Trickbot, it sounds cute, doesn't it?
Of course, the irony here is if they had really come from Black Lives Matter, they'd just be probably just as bad.
But anyway, Trickbot was doing a Roomba thing to a lot of people on their hard drives.
And it's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting your life.
We have Life Lock on our systems, and may I recommend that you put it on your system as well.
It detects a wide range of these threats.
It works with you either to prevent them or to clean them up when they happen.
And nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions in all businesses.
But LifeLock sees the threats that you might miss on your own.

So a Wisconsin man driving with a intent to kill a motorcyclist.
Daniel Narvaro.
It's going to be one of those days.
You know what?
Is Pat in yet?
Pat?
Yeah.
Hi, good morning.
Hi, how are you?
Good.
So I had my bout with kidney stones this weekend.
Yeah, so I hear it was great.
Doesn't feel good.
It was great at all.
Oh, it feels so good.
Oh, my gosh.
I was in a meeting.
I was in a meeting on Friday, and I was like, guys, I think I really have to and just started hurling.
Oh, boy.
Which I've never had, never had the pain so bad where you just start hurling.
Yeah, I threw up for the first time in 35 years when I had mine last year.
Yeah.
It was great.
Oh, I hope they come back.
Yeah.
So anyway, so I'm still a little bit, they pumped me full of so much, so much, so many drugs and so much water.
I was, I felt like, I felt like I needed to go to the juicing room and be squeezed.
You didn't need surgery, though.
You passed it.
Faith in One Another00:16:07
No.
Okay.
I passed it.
I passed it.
Yeah.
So it was.
That's good.
It was great fun.
It was great fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, so here's this guy.
He is he's driving down the street.
He's Hispanic.
He's 27 years old.
And he sees a guy riding a motorcycle.
And he sees that motorcycle and he realizes that it's a Harley.
And that's the kind of motorcycle that white people drive.
He thought to himself.
So he runs over him with his car and kills him.
Not a problem.
You know, sure, not a problem.
He's now been charged with a hate crime, which quite honestly, I'm surprised.
I'm shocked that they would actually charge him with a hate crime.
But he was clear.
He said, all of my problems in my life have been caused by white people because of my Hispanic background.
And I want to quote him here.
He chose a motorcycle instead of a car because he wanted the driver to die, not just be injured.
He said, oh, come on, where is it?
If President Donald Trump and white people are going to create the world we're living in, he has no choice and that people are going to have to die.
Oh. Okay.
Well, that's...
Okay.
Well, that's fine.
I'm sure.
Now, Black Lives Matter is rolling into a school near you.
If you don't understand the threat that Black Lives Matter is, you need to do your homework right now.
New York City, one of the many school systems that is rolling out now, Black Lives Matter themed lesson plans.
North Carolina's largest school system in Wake County has launched a website this summer that provides BLM lessons for teachers to use in a classroom and parents to use at home.
The website, created by the school system's Office of Equity Affairs, encourages teachers to address the injustices that exist beyond education by the conversations we have with each other, by speaking up when we see hate, by supporting others that oppose racism and oppression, and directly engaging in advocacy work.
In other words, they are making your kid into a Black Lives Matter warrior.
The site lays out a cult-like recording recruiting process for students to follow.
Step one, recognize your white privilege.
Step two, learn the do's and don'ts of being an ally.
Step three, recruit more members to learn steps one and two.
You know what?
I don't think so.
I don't think I'm going to.
No, uh-uh.
You know, I don't know if anybody knows who Patrice Cullers is, but she's the founder of Black Lives Matter.
And she has, you know, been, she's on tape saying she is a trained Marxist.
Well, here's the great thing.
If you do just a little bit of homework, in 2018 on Democracy Now, in an interview, she also boasted about retrieving training from Eric Mann.
Now, who's Eric Mann?
Well, Eric Mann was just a former member of the Weather Underground, charged with attempted murder of police officers in Boston back in 1969.
The Weather Underground was a terrorist organization.
But that just doesn't disqualify you from being in Black Lives Matter.
That, in fact, will probably push you up towards the top.
She is the poster girl now for the school curricula.
Her history of anti-Semitism also doesn't seem to bother any administrators.
She is a vocal anti-Israel activist, a close ally of the Nation of Islam's founder, Louis Farrakhan.
She accuses Israel of ethnic cleansing and racial brutality.
She says that the Jewish occupation of Israel, the Jewish occupation of Israel is genocide.
And she is the one that is being used as the poster child for this school curricula that most likely will be in your kids' school this fall.
I have to tell you, I look at the news every day.
I see what's happening.
I see that the schools in Los Angeles are now saying that they won't reopen unless they get some concessions for the teachers' union.
So what are the teachers' unions?
What do they want?
Well, they want to make sure that everything is safe.
They want to make sure that the class sizes they can distance from children and keep children safe, blah, But they also demand a new Medicare for all program and several new state-level taxes on wealthy people and a federal bailout of the school district.
They also say that all privately operated publicly funded charter schools need to be closed.
Hmm.
They also say police violence, quote, is a leading cause of death and trauma for black people, serious health and moral issue.
And they have to shift the amount of money devoted to policing to education and other essential needs such as housing and public health.
Now, I don't know about you, but I'm not having any of these people teach my kid because they're going to teach your kid to hate you.
The last thing that they say is, as it stands, the only people guaranteed to benefit from the premature physical reopening of schools amidst a rapidly accelerating pandemic are billionaires and the politicians they have purchased.
Are you going to send your kid to a school where your teacher is part of a teacher's union that says this?
In California, the answer is yes.
You need to protect your children.
You need to get your children out of there.
I know you feel alone.
I know you feel, you've got to be asking the same questions that I'm asking.
What the hell is happening to us?
How is this happening so fast?
How is it that I all of a sudden am deemed the bad guy because I love my country?
All the things that I have been taught to do, all the things that all of us were taught were true, are now being treated as lies.
Now I'm being told America doesn't matter.
In fact, America is a force for evil and should be destroyed.
Am I the only one?
We have to search for answers and we have to search for answers together.
You have to realize, and so do I, that not everybody is brave enough to understand and accept their nature as human beings.
The original principle of man, our purpose on earth, is free agency.
That's the simple truth of our existence.
That we have free agency, that we have a choice in front of us, that we can choose.
We chart our own destiny.
And from that principle, every other trapping of a correct human moral code has to follow.
This is why we cheer when somebody says the Bill of Rights and they read them.
Because that is the blueprint.
That is the way we can have our own self-agency and be able to allow others to have it as well.
The Bill of Rights speaks to the truth that each of us was born with.
That tiny fraction that we're left, we're coming through the veil and in our souls.
We know this to be true.
We know it to be true.
That nobody is better than I am.
They may be better than I am at an activity or they may be richer than I am or smarter than I am, but they're not better than I am.
They don't have any more rights than I have.
Together we have to find that principle and find the faith and the courage to stay true to the original principles of man.
It's going to get harder and harder and harder.
Courage is a muscle.
You must exercise it when it's easy.
And it's getting hard.
You have to start exercising it right now.
We have to stay true to the principles that we all know are true.
We are the authors of our own destiny.
Not a government, not a school district, not social media.
We don't need a king or a government.
We don't need social media mobs ordering us about, dictating what we can say and think and read and believe, how we act, whom we love, whom we marry, how we worship or how we don't.
We have to have faith in one another.
We have to have the faith that our neighbor is that can be trusted with the responsibility of guiding their own life.
And I know that is hard right now, and it feels like we're alone.
It feels that way, I think, to a lot of people.
Well, that should tell you something.
You're not alone.
The America we see on TV and social media, the America that we're told now exists and needs to exist, doesn't feel right.
It doesn't have the ring of truth to it in any way, shape, or form.
It's out of alignment with nature.
We've been to places like this before.
Maybe not exactly like this, but pretty darn close.
We fought wars physically.
We fought wars spiritually.
We've righted the ship.
And if we have faith in one another, if we have faith in our God, true, active faith in our God, if we understand the original principles of humankind and human nature, We can and will save the republic.
I want you to remember one thing.
You're not alone.
And you're not doing this by yourself.
Your duty is huge.
But all you have to do is what you're expected to.
You do what you have to do and trust that others are going to be doing what they have to do.
We have the same goals.
We're working on the same team.
And even if we don't know each other, we are moving in the same direction.
And I have faith that God is going to work this out.
I have faith that God will stand with those who stand with him.
We must stand to protect his rights that he gave to us and who we lent to a government to protect.
They are not protecting those things anymore.
They're pursuing something that, quite honestly, I think is evil is social justice.
Social justice.
Justice only works if it's blind.
And at this point, we have social justice, and that's never blind.
In fact, it can't be blind.
She has to see, search, find, fix every injustice in the life of those she deems fit.
And she is not justice.
She is a group of people in government.
I want to tell you something really important.
It's really the only job you have to do, and I'll do it in one minute.
First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
Sometimes a company comes along that not only provides quality service, but also stands for the values that you can get behind.
Patriot Mobile is such a company.
Patriot Mobile, not only great mobile service, but they also back up the causes that you believe in.
Right now, when you switch to Patriot Mobile, you can either get a brand new phone, or if you want to keep your existing one, you'll get a free month of service.
Patriot Mobile will never charge you with hidden fees, and unlike Big Mobile, they won't send your hard-earned money to leftist causes or groups trying to destroy this country.
Plans start as low as $25, and their U.S.-based customer service team was just rated number one among all wireless providers.
So call 972-Patriot.
That's 972-PATRIOIT, or visit patriotmobile.com slash back.
That's patriotmobile.com slash back.
Ten seconds, station ID.
This is going to sound counterintuitive, but it's true.
We have to keep things simple.
We have to keep things simple because the answer is simple.
The cure is simple.
The cure, honestly, is just remembering and then doing what you know is right.
Just remembering and then standing while the rest of the world goes over the cliff.
You just stand in place.
You don't have to be the one that hits the grand slam.
It's not going to be won that way.
A little sacrifice, a little thing, moves a runner to the base.
Tell you a story, a milkmaid, her young brother in Germany had their mule cart.
It was overturned in an accident.
The wheel was broken.
A U.S. Army Jeep came along and was kind to them, just kind to them, picked them up, drove them to town so they could make their deliveries.
Only later did the German milkmaid discover that the Jeep belonged to George S. Patton, who had held her brother on his lap during the ride.
So there's room for the passengers plus seven gallon containers of milk.
He also gave a boy a lesson into how to light a pipe during the drive.
Patton's Jeep and Wayfair Cabinets00:05:55
After the war, she named her first boy Patton.
And there's still a Patton named Butter in Germany today.
Why?
Because he did anything grand, but because he did something simple.
He showed simple human kindness.
That changes the world.
All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor.
Gary in California, he has been experiencing bad pain for a while.
He's been living with severe pain for several years.
He tried all the usual stuff, but after a while he gave up.
And I can tell you from personal experience, it's exactly how I felt.
You just give up after a while.
You're like, I can't, I just, nothing's going to work.
Well, he was determined to beat this, but he didn't know how.
Then he heard about Relief Factor.
He hadn't tried anything in a while.
He'd just been living with his pain, but decided, I'll give it a shot.
What could it do?
I mean, it's not going to hurt.
Well, within a few days, Gary says he started to notice the pain was subsiding, and within a few weeks, it was gone.
Gary now has his life back.
And so can you.
Relief Factor, not a drug, but developed by doctors.
And 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more because it works for them.
Try the three-week quickstart trial pack for only $19.95.

Glenn Beck, Steven Crowder, Dave Rubin, and me, Pat Gray.
Listen to all the conservative voices at theblazetv.com.
Blazetv.com.
promo code glenn could there could there be any stranger things and what's happening today in our world I think not.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Mr. Pat Gray joins us.
Hello, Pat.
Hello, Glenn.
Very excited about finding out about Wayfair furniture because, man.
Are you?
Yeah.
Yeah, well, I've been buying slave children.
Have you?
From Wayfair?
Yeah.
Yeah.
From Wayfair, yeah.
You just go online and you find the most expensive cabinet.
Yeah.
And because no cabinet could cost $14,000.
No, that's a good question.
How could a cabinet cost $14,000?
So what you do is you just find the most expensive cabinet and what you're buying are children instead of a cabinet.
That is just so bizarre.
How can that possibly get started with anybody believing it?
Come on.
Okay.
Okay.
So all right.
Sorry.
Didn't know you were part of the government cover-up.
Yes, I am.
Of Pizzagate and now Wayfair Gate.
Yes.
Or Cabinet Gate.
Oh, you're talking about the Pizzagate that's doing the sex trafficking of children in their basement that they don't have in the basement.
That's exactly right.
Yeah, that one.
Exactly.
Right yep, we got that one.
And here here's the.
I mean look, this is a, this is, there are four storage cabinets.
Uh there, that were you know the princess, princess Peach 1987.
This she, she's from uh, Reddit and she posted on Reddit, I saw these cabinets.
Uh, it's Wayfair's mobile website and it features products named Nira you uh your Yourzita, Samaya and Olivia, and these cabinets cost between twelve thousand six hundred ninety nine dollars and fourteen thousand four hundred and ninety nine dollars and ninety nine cents.
And the only thing that this could possibly be that I mean, is that these are, these are humans you're buying, not cabinets, because no cabinet would cost fourteen thousand dollars.
What a sick and weird conclusion to jump to.
Uh yeah yeah, you think yeah, is it possible?
This is what?
This is what she was, this is what she posted.
Is it possible?
Wayfair is involved in human trafficking with their WFX utility collection?
No, or are these just extremely overpriced cabinets?
There you go.
Well yeah, I think they're just overpriced cabinets.
I don't, I mean why why, why would it all of a sudden, why would it occur to you that it?
Oh, you know what?
They're buying people, they're selling people at Wayfair.
You know what I think this is, by the way, UH Wayfair said.
Of course, there's no truth to these claims.
The products in question are industrial grade cabinets that are accurately priced.
Recognizing that the photos and descriptions provided by the supplier did not adequately explain the high pipe price point, We have temporarily removed the products from the site to rename them, to provide a more in-depth description and photos that accurately depict the product, to clarify the price point.
Unbelievable.
So what I think this is, is I think this is just another attempt to discredit capitalism, to discredit another capitalist, successful corporation.
I mean, either that or it's just a really stupid person.
But I think it's equally, equally viable that this is somebody who is a Marxist that just wants to create more chaos and more doubt about anything that you can possibly trust.
Why We Doubt Everything00:09:32
Yeah, Ken, could we have any more doubts than we do in American society?
We doubt absolutely everything.
We doubt capitalism.
We doubt our leaders.
We doubt whether or not the COVID-19 thing is really spiking like it is because you hear all over the place that they're messing with the numbers, bringing back legacy numbers from months ago.
They're attaching positive test results to people who haven't even had tests.
I mean, we can't believe anything.
We have an expert on that coming up at the top of our three today.
If you're part of the COVID confusion and you don't know what's happening, because honestly, Pat, I don't know what's real or not anymore.
Me neither.
I don't know.
It's real.
I don't have any feeling that I should be concerned about COVID, though.
Do you?
Yeah, I don't want to be stupid about it.
Like, you know, we did a wedding.
Correct.
I think you know whose wedding it was and it was a great wedding.
Yes.
But all social distancing kind of went out the window because we're all friends and everybody knows each other.
And so you haven't seen each other in a long time.
And there's a lot of hugging and shaking and touching and feeling.
And I was a little nervous about it.
What kind of wedding was it?
A little bit nervous.
Sounds like a...
Wow, did you have a...
No, it was a great time.
Don't get me wrong.
Yes.
Yes, there was one right in the middle of the dance floor.
It was really strange.
Right.
That's weird.
But nobody was wearing masks.
And that's fine because I wasn't wearing one either.
But I just wasn't expecting the close proximity, I think.
And so I was a little nervous, maybe.
And I haven't really been.
But I thought, yeah, I'm not sure if I want to dive this deep into the normalcy end of the pool right now.
I'm not sure I'm ready for that.
If it was outdoors, I think it would have been different.
You know, like if it's a football game or you're going to a baseball game and you're outside, I wouldn't worry about that.
Indoors, I thought it was a little scary.
You wouldn't have been bothered by that?
You would have hugged everybody who people flying all over the world.
No, I probably wouldn't.
No, I probably wouldn't have hugged everybody.
But I'm up here in a small town in Idaho, and I don't see anybody wearing masks.
Yeah, there is nobody wearing masks.
And, you know, there's like one case in the county or something like that.
I mean, it's not a problem.
But I'm just bothered.
You're a hugger.
Would you be hugging people if you were back in Dallas?
No.
Yeah.
No, probably not.
But, you know, I don't want to be stupid, but I also don't want to be played either.
You know me too.
You know, what causes me to distrust all this is how it's come down on party lines.
I don't understand that.
Yeah, it's crazy.
How is that possible?
How's that possible?
And it's possible because science has so discredited themselves that we don't know what's true anymore.
We don't just blindly trust science anymore because they've made science political.
And once everything in our life is political, I mean, geez, Pat.
What isn't political?
I think pretty much everything is.
I can't think of anything.
Yeah, everything is.
Everything is.
Masks are.
Everything is.
Right.
And you've got sports.
I mean, why is sports political?
Why?
There's no reason for it.
It was brought in to divide us even more.
So we can have, I mean, if that line from Michelle Obama, do we have that Michelle Obama line?
If that line from Michelle Obama when she was on the campaign trail with Barack Obama, come to your head.
Oh, my gosh.
Listen.
And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices.
We are going to have to change our conversation.
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
We're going to have to move into a different place.
We've done that.
I mean, that's...
We've done it all.
That's been done.
Our conversations are not anything like they used to be.
Right.
Nothing like they used to be.
Our traditions, our history, all of it is going out the window.
Look how they made us ashamed, ashamed of our history.
If you celebrated during the 4th of July, you got hammered on Twitter for it.
That's just crazy to me.
How did we get here?
We got here because we didn't see how big the threat was.
We got here because, quite honestly, we didn't listen to warnings like I gave back in the early 2000s of organizations like the Tides Foundation.
We didn't dismantle the Tides Foundation.
We didn't look into it.
still to this day refuse to see George Soros as a threat.
George Soros is a massive threat.
Now, he could disappear and be taken into space by aliens.
It doesn't matter.
It's his money at this point.
It's the money of the Ford Foundation.
That's what's happening.
How is Black Lives Matter sitting in our schools?
Right now, right now, it's sitting in our schools waiting to be devoured by our kids.
How's that possible?
Because of big money like the Ford Foundation and open society from George Soros.
That's how these things get done.
Just to back up what you're saying, let me play for you a real quick interview from Lord Jamar, who's a rapper, and I'd never heard of him before, but the guy makes all kinds of sense.
I'm not no Black Lives Matter supporter.
No, absolutely.
Why not?
Because it's not our movement.
This is a movement that was given to us by, you know, George Soros and his f ⁇ ing boys because they saw how things were going and they didn't want it to go back to the 60s to where we start having our own organic movements.
That was a big fucking problem for them.
So let's give the people a movement that we can control.
We'll provide them the leaders and all of this type of shit.
And yeah, that's what Black Lives Matter is.
Is that great?
So he's right that it is not a black movement.
It is a gay and lesbian Marxist radical movement.
Yeah.
So that's what that is.
But I think it's worse than what he said.
He said it was given so we wouldn't start our own movement.
No, no, no.
No, it was given because they know they can use the black community.
They really believe that the black community is so stupid that they can be used every step of the way, that they can be wrapped up into something like this and nobody's going to look into it and nobody will care and it will help destroy the black community and the United States of America.
That's what this is really all about.
I mean, you want to talk about a racist movement.
It's what the white leadership of Black Lives Matter and the big funders of Black Lives Matter actually believe.
I want to tell you about Melody.
She is a, she's a fan of the show.
She lives in Georgia and she's got a bit of a problem.
Problem is, well, not that her dog won't eat.
It used to be the problem, but it's not the problem anymore.
Problem now is her dog will now only eat food that has rough greens on it.
This is this right?
Is this happening to your dog too?
Oh, yeah.
If you don't put rough greens on it, they're like, What is this?
What are you trying to feed me?
I think so.
I mean, it's crazy.
It's crazy.
All right.
So, rough greens, it's not a dog food.
It's a supplement that you put on your dog's food, and it contains all of the nutrients that your dog needs.
And it gets all cooked out in kibble food.
So, probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, omega oils, all of the things that are alive and helps your dog stay healthy.
These are the things in rough greens, and our dogs love it, absolutely love it.
And you will see a difference in your dog.
Not only the way they eat, how fast they gobble this stuff down, you don't have to coax them at all, but also how different they start to behave.
They are their coat is shinier, their eyes are brighter, and they, at least, my dog, running all the time.
He's active, he's no longer just kind of laying around the house, he's actually alert and acting like a dog, I think, should act.
My dog's seven, he's acting like he's three.
Rough greens, roughgreens.com/slash beck.
That's roughgreens.com/slash beck.
Clinton Pardons and Rough Greens00:03:00
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
Hey, do not put up with a second, a second of anyone saying, Oh, Roger Stone, this president's out of control.
You know, I don't like Roger Stone.
I think Roger Stone is a scumbag.
However, let's put this into perspective, may I?
Bill Clinton, Bill Clinton, commuted the sentence of 16 members of the FALN, the Puerto Rican paramilitary organization that set off 120 bombs in the United States, mostly in New York City and Chicago.
There were convictions for conspiracy to commit robbery, bomb-making, sedition, as well as firearms and explosive violations.
Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg, both members of the Weather Underground and the May 19th communist movement, and were convicted on weapons and explosive charges.
One of them, by the way, after being released, is now at the top of BLM.
Cases similar to Roger Stone.
This is just Clinton.
Susan McDougall, sentenced to 18 months in prisons on contempt of charges for refusing to testify about Clinton in the Whitewater scandal.
Pardons that look like they were responses to bribes.
Carlos Viganelli, convicted for cocaine trafficking.
Allman Glenn Braswell, convicted of mail fraud and perjury, under investigation for money laundering and tax evasion.
Both were pardoned, but they were also caught paying approximately $200,000 to Hillary Clinton's brother, Hugh Rodman, to represent their respective cases for clemency.
Mark Rich fled the United States after he was caught owing $48 million in taxes and charged with 51 counts for tax fraud.
Everyone was surprised when Clinton pardoned him.
Later revealed, oh, his wife made a substantial donation to the Clinton Library and Foundation.
Pardons for the Clinton family member.
He pardoned Roger Clinton, who'd been convicted on drug charges.
Clinton pardoned Harvey Weinig, a former New York lawyer who was sentenced in 96 to 11 years for facilitating an extortion kidnapping scheme and helping launder at least $19 million from a cocaine cartel.
Then you have Obama.
Nobody said anything that he pardoned another FALN terrorist, Oscar Lopez Riviera.
Also, let's remember that he also pardoned Chelsea Manning, the former Army intelligence analyst that was convicted of leaking documents that revealed classified information on military and diplomatic activities all around the world.
Cases similar to Michael Flynn or Roger Stone.
Obama pardoned General James Cartwright, who had been convicted for lying to the FBI.
Sound familiar?
He was considered Obama's favorite general.
Shutting Up About Double Standards00:03:30
So please don't even start with me.
I'll post these at Glennbeck.com.
Anybody who says anything about Roger Stone and the pardon, you don't have to like Roger Stone.
You don't even have to like the pardon.
But shut up about a double standard.
Shut up about, oh, he's out of control.
How about the terrorists that were released?
This is the Glenn Beck program.

That's coming up next.
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Stock Market Collapse Coming00:03:07
Hello, America.
I want to talk to you about the word Shahada.
It's the Muslim profession of faith.
There is no God but Allah.
And Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.
And you have to repeat that.
It requires you, the faith requires you to recite that over and over again.
And the whole crowd has to recite that.
So why am I bringing this up?
Who's shouting that?
Who's making you say that?
Well, we're all saying that there is no God other than.
We're all doing it right now.
We go into it and our responsibility to stop doing it in one minute.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Well, the wonderful world of the dollar is full of strange twists and turns right now.
Hey, Pat, do you remember Pat's filling in, by the way, for Stu today?
Do you remember when I said that the government would start bailing out our banks and they called me crazy?
You remember that?
Yeah.
And then when that didn't work, they would start printing money and they said they would never do that.
Remember that?
Then because they printed so much money, they would have to buy our own debt and we would lose our credit status and eventually we would lose our global currency status as the reserve currency.
Remember that one?
Preposterous.
Yeah.
Yeah, preposterous.
And everyone said none of those things would happen and that's ridiculous.
The only thing on that list that hasn't happened is us losing our reserve currency status.
And I'm telling you right now, it's coming.
It is coming.
So please find out if gold or silver is right for you to hedge against that nightmare scenario.
Right now, if you look at the stock market, keeps going up.
Based on what?
Nothing is opened.
Our economy is in shambles.
There's no good news.
Our streets are in riots.
Why is that going up?
Because the Fed is now doing something else they said they would never do, buying the stock market.
So if you're in the Fed or you know what the Fed's going to buy, well, good for you.
Go ahead and run with the stock market.
But eventually it's going to come down because it's bogus.
Please call Goldline now.
Find out if it's right for you.
By the way, they have been running a special on their exclusive $5 coins for the last couple of weeks.
These are the coins that I just bought about two months ago.
They are well worth you inspecting and seeing if that's something that you want to own.
Like I said, I just upped my gold because I believe that the dollar is not going to be around much longer.
NewSpeak and Planned Parenthood00:11:01
Whatever that means.
Remember, I'm always about 10 years early, it seems.

Woke Shahada.
Here to explain it is somebody that I just found online a few weeks ago, and I just think he is so brilliant and his voice needs to be heard.
He was preaching here in America.
He's from Los Angeles, but he's now the dean of theology over in Africa.
He's at the African Christian University, also a former pastor of Grace Family Baptist Church, Dr. Vodi Bacham.
Welcome, Vodi.
How are you?
I'm doing great, Glenn.
Thanks for having me on once again.
I'm surprised every time.
Yeah, you bet.
Are you really?
You're speaking truth, and so few people are speaking truth.
And I'm very concerned, Vodi, about something that is happening here in America.
Actually, the best case of this to highlight happened in Indiana.
A priest got up, spoke a sermon, and spoke of good and evil and named Black Lives Matter as evil and actually described why it was evil.
And he was accurate.
He's now been replaced at his church.
And they've got him in some witness protection program or something.
And if Catholics and all Christians don't start to stand up, we're in real, real trouble.
Yeah, we most assuredly are.
It's not just happening there.
It's happening all over the country.
And I've been saying that it would come for the church.
It has to come for the church because if you accept critical theory, which is the foundation upon which Black Lives Matter and all of these different movements is based, if you accept critical theory and the idea that the world and America is divided between oppressors and the oppressed, if you accept their definition of whiteness, of white supremacy, of white privilege and everything else,
then ultimately you have to recognize the fact that the church and Christianity, in their eyes, is the source of the oppression.
So everybody knows that they list off white, male, able-bodied, cisgendered, so on and so forth, when they're talking about the oppressor, the white supremacist or whatever.
But what a lot of people don't realize is that Christian is part of that list.
And so when they talk about America's original sin, and they give me a book by that title, America's Original Sin by Jim Wallace, when they talk about it, they lay that at the feet of Christianity itself.
And so they have to come for the church.
And that's why I believe it's so dangerous, and that's why I talked about this idea of the wok Shahada.
You have to say Black Lives Matter.
I can't believe how many times I've seen people pressed as to whether or not they would speak the phrase.
This is dangerous.
So explain, because I feel really impressed to start speaking to Christians and start waking Christians up because I think the black community,
because of their relationship with God and those Christians who are white or of any other color, if they are still attached to God, they are the ones that are going to repair this.
Because I think we're in the beginning of the end battle, it seems.
We are battling evil at a global scale.
Yeah, you know, and I think you hit the nail on the head.
And this is my biggest problem.
I've said this before, and I'll say this again.
My biggest problem with this is that we're moving into a direction that says the church is not the answer.
The gospel is not the answer.
Christ is not the answer.
In fact, the church, the gospel, and Christ are part of the problem.
And Black Lives Matter and, you know, their openly Marxist ideology is the answer.
And I know you've gone over this before, but the idea that these people say we're self-reflexive and do the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege, right?
That they want to uplift black trans folk, that they want to replace the idea or dismantle patriarchal nuclear family structures.
These things go to the heart of who we are as Christians.
And Glenn, one of the things that I've been saying for a while is I love the illustration of social justice movement, which is really the critical social justice movement because critical theory is at the core of this.
But the critical social justice movement is like a train.
It's like a train, and it has multiple cars.
And the first car behind the engine is the ethnic car, the racial car, right?
Racial justice.
And you get everybody on board with that because nobody wants to be a racist.
Everybody wants racial justice.
And then behind that, you have gender equality, behind that, LGBTQ AI Plus.
And then behind that, a whole host of other things that come along with it.
And what worries me is that Christians believe that they can jump on one of those cars, right, the racial justice car, and not be carried along where the rest of the train is going.
And that's naive.
So why is it we're so asleep, Vodi?
What's happened to the church?
It's dead asleep.
You know, I think there's a couple of things, Glenn.
People mean well.
Christians hate injustice.
So just think about how ingenious it is.
This is what Satan does.
Think about how ingenious it is the way some of these openly anti-Christian movements name themselves, right?
Black Lives Matter.
Oh, I mean, who's going to say black lives don't matter, right?
And now, all of a sudden, you have an organization that is antithetical to Christianity with a phrase that you feel like, but this is not the first time.
Think about planned parenthood.
I mean, how deceptive is that?
Planned parenthood.
Who could be against something called, you know, planned parenthood?
And so on and so forth.
It goes down the line.
This is not something new.
And so they get to the heart of, again, Christians, we love God.
We love people.
We hate racism.
If you don't hate racism, check yourself.
You're not a Christian.
We're part of the body of Christ.
We belong to one another.
And I talk about that in that racial reconciliation mess.
And so if somebody comes and talks about anti-racism and you don't know what they mean by that, you're like, yeah, I'm on board with that.
And so Christians are being sucked in because they see injustices, right?
Nobody would argue that there are no injustices.
And so Christians have these injustices pointed out and they're like, yeah, this stuff is wrong.
And it's like, okay, cool.
We've got an answer for you.
And this answer is based in critical theory.
And then what they've done is they've created an entire vocabulary.
It's like there's two books I'm thinking about right now and been talking about right now: Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm.
And those two books, you know, unfortunately, we don't even read those anymore.
People don't even read those anymore in school.
But this is Newspeak.
They redefine words so that they don't mean what they used to mean.
And then they employ those words in an effort to get their ideology in front of us in ways that seem very palatable.
And before we know it, we're carried along in something that is actually antithetical to the gospel that we hold dear and antithetical to the goals that we have that we think they're going to help us achieve.
You know, you bring up 1984, and I started the program today with, you know, let's all remember the slogans of the party: war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.
And it goes on: who controls the past controls the future, who controls the present controls the past.
Everything in, I just reread 1984.
Everything in it is happening right now.
It is, it's no longer reading fiction.
It is reading a newspaper.
Well, but you have to understand, though, that, you know, when you're looking at 1984 and when you're looking at Animal Farm and, you know, these books weren't written as pure fiction.
These books were written in order to communicate the truth about this same ideology that has been around for a long time.
And we've seen how this story ends.
So the beauty of those books is not just that they're good fiction, but they're fiction that really helped to illustrate what happens when, you know, Marxism, communism, you know, first, you know, two legs bad, four legs good, right?
You know, then all animals are created equal.
And then all of a sudden, some animals are more equal than others.
And now you got the pigs walking on two legs.
And by the way, if you don't know Animal Farm, go get a copy of Animal Farm.
Read Animal Farm, read 1984.
Because again, these things are very instructive and informative as to these strategies that we're seeing unfold.
And people have seen these strategies unfold before.
And NewSpeak is a really important part of this.
Redefining terms is a really important part of this.
And Shahada has a lot to do with NewSpeak, getting it to be accepted.
Redefining Terms as Systemic Control00:06:56
And I want to talk to you about that a little bit more here in just a second.
We're with Vodi Bacham, and he is a voice that you can find on YouTube, and you should find him.
He speaks truth, and some of his lectures are jaw-dropping.
My son-in-law, who is not a guy who's generally into all of this stuff, he was with me, and we were building something, and I had it on, and he's like, who is this guy?
He is so clear.
You really need to look him up and follow him on YouTube.
More in just a second.
First, let me take one minute and tell you about RekTech.
Anyone who really understands cooking understands that you really need the right tools.
They are just as important as the right knowledge of what you're doing.
Chefs don't just buy high-end, expensive equipment because it's high-end and expensive.
It's because it works and it changes things the way you cook.
There's no more apparent case in my life than a RekTech grill.
RekTech is something that is built to where you walk in and you just put your hands on it and you know, wow, this thing is built like a tank.
This will be the last grill that I want to buy.
And then when you start cooking on it, you see the difference because it's not only just built to last, it also has smart grilling technology.
When you're standing over a rech tech looking at what you've cooked, it's a work of art and you have very little to do with it.
People like me, people like you, I mean, maybe you're a professional griller.
I'm not.
But you can go to their website and you get great, great recipes, and they come out perfect every time with a rech tech.
Follow RekTech now on social media and sign up for their newsletter.

So I know the topic of woke shahada is something that you're exploring in the book that you're working on.
Can you...
Can you go in and tie this all up for me?
So one of the things, and there are a number of people who have written on this, John McCorder is probably my favorite, on the religious nature of this movement.
You know, they have a new original sin, a new meta-narrative that explains the world and the way the world works, a new commandment, anti-racism.
You know, they have a new birth, which is wokeness.
They have a new liturgy.
They have a new priesthood, which is the oppressed.
They have a new eschatology, which is anti-hegemonic hegemony, right?
Not just to get rid of hegemony, but to replace the hegemony.
And they have this Shahada, which is you have to say Black Lives Matter.
You have to say that phrase, even though it's a trademark, right?
You know, you have to say it.
And let me just give you an idea of sort of how this works.
It is cultic in its nature.
So I talked to you about New Speak and how they're redefining terms, right?
So you thought you understood what whiteness was, but you don't.
Whiteness is actually a set of normative privileges that are granted to white-skinned individuals and groups, and it's invisible to those who are privileged by it.
So whiteness gives you privilege, and that privilege is invisible.
What is white privilege?
A series of unearned advantages that accrue to white people by virtue of what?
Whiteness.
Well, then there's white supremacy.
What is that?
Any belief, behavior, or system that supports, promotes, or enhances white privilege.
So you thought you knew what white supremacy was, right?
You thought these white supremacist groups, no.
Any belief, behavior, or system that supports, promotes, or enhances white privilege.
And again, when you understand how broad that is, you get it.
Then what if you disagree with this stuff?
Well, then you have white fragility, which is the inability and unwillingness of white people to talk about race due to the grip that whiteness, white supremacy, and white privilege exert on them, either knowingly or unknowingly.
So do you see how that encircles you, right?
And so there's no way out of it.
And this is their theology.
And if you object to their theology, then you are supporting racism.
If you are not being actively anti-racist, then you are supporting white supremacy.
Can you tell me the difference between not being, you know, being against racism and saying, I'm not a racist, and the difference between that and saying, I'm anti-racist.
What is the difference?
Okay, so here we go.
So critical theory basically explains it this way, that racism, we used to talk about racism in terms of individual prejudice, individual animosity, or individual acts or individual beliefs about the superiority of one race over another race.
But in the new sort of critical social justice movement, yeah, in New Speak, well, racism now is only systemic.
Racism involves the ideas of whiteness, white privilege, white supremacy, and white fragility as defined by the movement, right?
That is the essence of racism.
So white people, by virtue of their whiteness, are racist.
America, by virtue of its historic whiteness, is systemically racist.
And so you say, you know, I don't want to be racist.
You're thinking about the term the way it used to be defined, which is you and your animosity toward another individual, and not about the systemic version of it, which you have to fight against on a systemic level for the rest of your life.
Okay, perfect.
Okay, so when we come back, I want to ask you about that systemic racism and fighting it for the rest of our lives.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Holy cow.

Nothing, nothing reminds you that privacy is a right to truly be appreciated until somebody invades it.
Imagine for a moment how you'd feel if all of a sudden all the curtains and blinds from your house were gone and anyone could just look in and peek anytime they wanted to.
Well, that's essentially what you're doing when you go out into the world and you use public Wi-Fi.
When you're using the internet without powerful software to keep prying eyes away from your personal information and data, you're naked in a glass house.
That's why Norton 360 is so important.
With Norton 360, you get real-time protection against existing and emerging threats from cyber criminals.
You're getting device security and a VPN with bank-grade encryption to help keep your information more secure and private when you're on Wi-Fi, not just from the people who are trying to do nasty things with it, but also from Facebook and everybody else.

If you really think Glenn deserves it, don't forget to vote for him to be in the Radio Hall of Fames.
Voting for the audience starts July 20th.
We're talking to Dr. Vody Bauckham.
He is the Dean of Theology, African Christian University, a new friend of the program, somebody I wish I would have had the chance to meet while he was here in the United States.
He's currently serving over in Africa, but he grew up in the United States, grew up in Los Angeles, and has been speaking out about the dangers of what we're facing right now for years and really came under some real deep attack.
And I just think his voice needs to be heard from coast to coast.
You need to read him, watch his videos online on YouTube while they're still available.
Vodi, we were talking about the idea of anti-racism.
And how do you argue with people?
Because you do want to be, you know, our Achilles heel is, we do want to do these things.
And you sound like a monster when you say, no, I won't go there.
How do you argue this?
Well, and Glenn, this is, and this may seem like I'm going a little off the path, but I think this is an important point because I get a lot of heat for this because I've been dealing with these types of things for, you know, two decades.
Talking about cyclohumanism and postmodernism and then cultural Marxism when people sort of rolling their eyes.
My first book in 2004, The Ever Loving Truth, was about cultural apologetics and thinking about these things on the level of ideas.
And these ideas matter.
And so a lot of times people think that, you know, I'm either being insensitive.
I got a letter from someone who heard me on your show who just assumed that I was an American and that I didn't understand race in America or racism in America.
You know, they didn't know that I was born in South Central L.A. in 1969 and that I was bussed to an all-white school in Pacific Palisades and that I have seen the ugly underbelly of racism.
They just didn't get that or understand that, right?
But these ideas are important.
And so what I've been saying is I've been standing on this wall and fighting on this wall for a long time and sort of trying to argue that these things were coming for a long time.
It's not that I don't care about other issues and real issues that are happening.
It's that I think this is the greatest threat.
And so let me just, there's a book.
It's the sort of similar work on anti-racism by Ibram X. Kendi, How to Be an Anti-Racist.
And if I can, I've just, a couple of lines from this, if it's okay.
The opposite of racist isn't not racist.
It is anti-racist.
What's the difference?
One endorses either the idea of racial hierarchy as a racist or racial equality as an anti-racist.
Now, you hear that and you go, yeah, racial equality.
We're all equal.
No, that's not his point.
He's not talking about an intrinsic or ontological equality between people.
He continues.
One either believes problems are rooted in groups of people as a racist or locates the roots of problems in power and policies as an anti-racist.
Now, this is huge, Glenn, because there's an error here.
There's a logical fallacy here.
It's called the fallacy of the excluded middle.
He creates an either or when there's actually another option.
Let me read that again.
One either believes problems are rooted in groups of people as a racist or locates the roots of problems in power and policies as an anti-racist.
Well, what about a Christian who locates these things in sin, in the fall of man, whose only answer is the blood of Christ?
You see, we're excluded here, you'd think, but we're actually not excluded.
We're put in the first category of racist because we're not anti-racist.
We don't root these problems in power and policies.
He continues.
One either allows racial inequities to persevere as a racist or confronts racial inequities as an anti-racist.
Now, these inequities that he talks about, here's one of the things you have to understand, that for the anti-racist, the only explanation for disparities and inequities is racism.
In fact, you know, in the book White Fragility, which is, you know, I think it's still like bestseller on Amazon right now, Robin D'Angelo talks about aversive racism, which is, I mean, there's so many different types of racism.
And when she explains what aversive racism is, the last example she gives is for people to explain inequities by anything other than racism.
If you see an inequity between, yes, I'm telling you, this is what these people are doing.
So again, back to Gendy.
There is no in-between safe space of not racist.
The claim of not racist neutrality is a mask for racism.
So what they're saying is either you accept critical theory's definition of the world, either you operate by their worldview, which excludes biblical Christianity as an alternative.
If you don't accept this, then you are, by definition, upholding white privilege and upholding white supremacy.
Floating, I feel impressed to say I am holding the ladder for you, and you are now up on the wall.
Say what needs to be said to people who believe they are Christians and doing the right thing by going along with this.
Blow your trumpet.
Yeah, here's the deal.
Our hope is in Christ alone.
And we have to recognize that this movement, this ideology, is antithetical to the biblical gospel.
Not the idea of justice, not the idea of mercy.
These are biblical ideas.
Justice and mercy.
These are biblical ideas, and we want to pursue these things.
But we have to pursue these things with the gospel, through the lens of the gospel.
And we have to recognize when we're being duped and when we're being used.
And when people are giving us their language to use, and when they are pouring into their language different definitions, then ultimately, when you go down their road, you get to a place where you realize what I said last time, which is with this group, a 99 is an F. You cannot do enough.
You cannot give enough.
But here's the other problem, Glenn.
This is works righteousness.
This is legalism.
Our hope is in Christ.
Our hope is not in us working hard enough to be an anti-racist.
Our hope is in Christ.
And then here's the other problem.
The problem is that these people are trusting.
These people are trusting in systems and in governments.
The same government that has led us down on this issue and these issues time and time and time again.
That's not the answer.
Our hope is in Christ.
These people are anti-Christian.
This is the mark of the beast for our day, if you will.
And so I'm telling people, flee from this stuff.
Expose this stuff.
Don't be bullied by this stuff.
And there's a lot of bullying going on.
The University of Colorado at Boulder, and I know you're probably aware of this, but the University of Colorado at Boulder basically said that anybody who does not stand with the principles of Black Lives Matter, not just the phrase, the principles, again, these principles that are antithetical to biblical Christianity, they're not welcome as faculty or as a student.
Well, I know where my kids won't be going because I think you're, I think, Vodi, I think you're exactly right that this is our mark of the beast, if you will.
You cannot take this mark on yourself.
You cannot do it.
It is, it's not, everything that you've talked about is the opposite of Christianity.
When you talk about systematic racism, what you're talking about is group sin.
Well, Jesus didn't come to take care of group sin.
He took care of the sin of the individual.
It was an individual that needed to be cured.
You want to stop racism?
You change the hearts of the individual.
Forget about the group.
Everything about this is group.
And that is, to me, that is the mark of Satan.
It is.
Anything that says that the individual is not supreme and not responsible for their own thing, but they're also responsible for everything else, is not Christian.
Yeah, and it goes beyond that, though, Glenn.
It's not just the group.
When you understand these people and their ideology, it is the hegemonic power.
It is not even the governmental system.
But this is why, for example, there's a difference between police reform, and it's interesting.
I've been talking about police reform for over a decade, right?
There's a difference between police reform and defund the police.
One of those is inherently anti-authoritative, anti-authoritarian.
One of those is an idea of supplanting power.
And we've got to understand that this is not just, you know, individual versus group.
This is inherently revolutionary.
It's always been revolutionary.
And so if you just listen to what's being said, we're now replacing what they say is this, you know, hegemonic power, right?
And we know that there are principalities and powers.
We read our Bibles.
We understand that, right?
But what they want to do is replace it with another power that has as its helm the anti-racists and those who have been self-proclaimed as the leaders and definers of the anti-racist movement.
And that just cannot be.
Our hope is in Christ and in Christ alone.
We have to let the chips fall where they may.

Vodi, we'll talk to you again.
Thank you so much for your help and your knowledge.
Appreciate it.
Thank you, my friend.
Well, Pat, do you remember when I said at one point, I said, I said, you'll know things are getting serious when I just don't have any fear at all of talking about religious principles and mentioning Jesus by name and everything else.
Yeah.
Not a problem with it at all.
Not a second where we were talking about things.
In fact, it was the opposite.
Say more.
Say more.
We as a community in all faiths, if you believe in one God and the and Jehovah.
It's time to wake up and stand together because we are facing real darkness.
All right, let me tell you about Tekovis.
Texas Boots and Real Estate00:14:37
Takovis, right now, you can get really, really great boots.
I live in Texas.
The one thing Texans know is boots.
And one thing they don't really know until recently is affordable boots.
You go down to Texas and they are, they are, they're nice, but they're wildly expensive.
Takovis is a Texas bootmaker that went, we can do this and not charge an arm and a leg.
We can still use the best leathers, the best hides, the best skins.
We can make the boots by hand, 250 hand steps, if you will, made by hand.
That goes into Tocovis.
What doesn't go into Tacovis is all the markup because they sell directly to you.
Takovis boots.
I want you to go there now, find your pair at T-E-C-O-V-A-S.com slash Beck.

I can't urge you enough to please do your own homework in Black Lives Matter.
It is in our schools now, as we reported an hour ago.
They have already, through George Soros and the Ford Foundation, have already put curriculum together.
This should be enough evidence to show that this was not about George Floyd.
They were waiting for something to happen to spring this trap on us.
It is taking apart the nuclear family.
That is one of their stated goals.
Now, I know my faith is rooted on the nuclear family, that it is the basic building block of the universe, families.
And anything that is stated in opposition of the nuclear family, I'm sorry, is evil.
It's evil.
Their goal is not to hold up and say, hey, other families can be.
No, that's not it.
Their stated goal is to destroy the nuclear family.
Say that it is.
It's a structure that is an invention of capitalists.
That is so ridiculous it's laughable.
But you cannot stand with black lives matter.
You cannot do it.
Good god, how long am I going to be able to say this on the radio?
Please do your own homework.
Please learn to do your own homework.
Please keep a diary, a record of the things that are happening.
More in just a minute.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
You've heard me talk about my Takovis boots and how much I love them and what a great company they come from.
It's a small business that's doing things the right way down here in Texas.
Well, given the challenges that we're going through as a country, Takovis has asked me to speak about something else that comes to mind every time I put on my Tacovis boots, the cowboy.
Now, you know, I'm not a working cowboy, but I know some of those guys.
And not being one of them, I wouldn't pretend to be.
But what I see in them, I see in other people too.
Because in many ways, cowboy is just a mindset, an uncompromising can-do attitude, a willingness to help even when it's really hard.
And most of all, the cowboy knows that the good guys always win in the end.
So as you begin the hard work of bootstrapping this country and economy back into shape, Takovis has the boots you need.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
Do you have your mask?
Are you full-fledged panic yet?
Are you not wearing a mask because you just want old people to die?
Are you not wearing a mask because you're a Republican?
Are you wearing a mask just because Donald Trump, you think, won't wear a mask?
I mean, I don't even know what, I don't know what's true anymore.
I don't know what to, everything is political.
I don't know who to trust.
I don't know what's really happening with coronavirus.
The numbers are going through the roof.
Some doctors say not a problem.
Some doctors say it's a massive problem.
What is true?
We begin to explore that in 60 seconds.

I want to introduce you to Dr. Scott Atlas.
He's a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute.
He is former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University Medical Center.
And we wanted to talk to him about the second wave of COVID and get an understanding on the mask thing, why the numbers are coming up.
Is it something we should be concerned with?
What is happening?
Doctor, welcome to the program.
How are you?
Very well.
Thanks for having me.
You bet.
So I think most Americans are confused.
And some people are saying that these numbers going through the roof are bad.
I just heard an argument this morning that what's happening in Florida is happening everywhere.
And it's no big deal.
This is all about politics.
What's the truth?
Well, I mean, I think that everything should be done, of course, by looking at the data instead of just sort of models or even just allowing fear to go into the exchange here.
So if we look at the data, we see there's no question that cases are increasing in many states.
And that's to be expected for a few reasons.
Number one, we have a contagious disease present, and when there's more social mingling, there's going to be more cases.
And of course, when we test more, we're going to detect more cases.
And when we have thousands and thousands of people in the streets protesting and screaming and sharing megaphones, we're going to have more cases.
The only question really is, what's the significance of these cases and how are we going to handle these consequences?
First and foremost, the overwhelming majority of people that are getting these cases are younger, healthier people.
These are people from the facts, from the evidence from all over the world, including the United States, are not at significant risk generally from this infection.
In fact, the overwhelming majority of people recover fully from the infection.
So that's not really the issue.
In fact, the issue is only really twofold.
Number one, we want to do our best to protect the people who are at high risk to actually die from this.
And we are not doing that perfectly, of course.
We're better at it.
I know we're better because we don't see the explosion in deaths that we would have expected or would have seen in the beginning of this.
And we have learned.
So we know that we need to protect the elderly, high-risk people, particularly in nursing homes.
Now, we, as a nation, have failed at doing that from coast to coast, as most countries in the whole world failed.
But the second part of the policy, and the only thing that really is the focus of any so-called flattening of the curve, is to prevent hospitals from being overcrowded.
This is the point of the policy.
The policy was never to stop all cases of COVID, and it frankly was never to stop all deaths from COVID because we have a case of a disease here with a fatality rate greater than zero.
And every single disease with a fatality rate greater than zero, necessarily, there are people that are going to die.
We're going to minimize that.
We do our best to minimize that.
And that should be sort of doable because we know who to protect.
The overwhelming majority of people that die are over 70 and in some cases over 80, depending upon the analyses, two-thirds to three-fourths of people are over 70, whereas younger, healthier people have extremely low risk.
In fact, the infection fatality rate for people who are under 70 is 0.04, less than or equal to seasonal flu.
Okay, so this is really a message that has never been stressed to people.
And frankly, one of the egregious failures here of the policy people is not just to allow fear to infiltrate their own thinking and do lockdowns, which are severely harmful, and I can articulate that.
But secondly, they have failed to reassure the public about the facts and about the relative risk here.
It's a very serious, dangerous disease for a group of people, and we know who those people are.
They are high-risk elderly people with comorbidities.
Everybody else, it's not a high-risk disease.
So why is it when I see the governor of Texas who has done a really good job, but when he comes out and says, you know what, I'm thinking we may have to do a significant lockdown of the state if these numbers continue.
Well, wait a minute.
Why are you locking down the entire state?
Why aren't we just protecting those people in that category?
Why have we gone off the rails on this?
Well, again, like, you know, I sort of try to empathize with the fear, including of the public officials, but I don't empathize with the ignorance and the lack of ability to use critical thinking on the data by the people talking to them.
And again, to emphasize, we want to protect the high-risk people.
Also, we need to protect the hospitals to some extent because we absolutely were killing people by locking out regular medical care.
And we have data on that.
You know, 650,000 people with cancer, you know, half of them missed their chemotherapy.
And I could go on and on.
The Harm of Lockdowns00:12:46
This is factually true.
In fact, in Texas alone, by the way, of the excess deaths over expected baseline from last year, almost two-thirds were non-COVID people.
That means that we killed people with the lockdown, particularly the lockdown of medical care, not to mention the lockdown causing increased suicides, increased opioid deaths, and that's all statistically proven.
Okay, so this is not arguable.
So the reality that I want to really make sure, though, the Texas situation is in certain settings, in certain hospitals, they're getting crowded.
In certain hospitals in Florida, they're getting crowded.
I just looked at the data, and we see that overall, okay, the hospitals in Texas are, say, 80 to 90% occupied.
But when you look at what percent are COVID patients or what percent are COVID patients in Arizona, they're, you know, 15 to 20%.
They're filling these hospitals, of course, but it's the wave of non-COVID that's really filling the hospitals.
Yes, there are more COVID patient hospitalizations.
And when there are hospitals that are overwhelmed, although I just looked again, for instance, at Florida, and they still have about 20% bed occupancy and about 20% ICU occupancy, but there are some hospitals, isolated hospitals, with very crowded, getting nervous levels of ICU occupancy.
Okay, well, here's a policy issue.
We need to do what we did for New York and supply extra hospital capacity.
You're not going to stop the infection itself.
You just need to be able to take care of the people who need care.
Let me switch to schools.
You know, before I do that, well, you decide the order.
Schools have got to be opened.
They have got to be open.
We are harming our children.
The Pediatric Association has come out and said this as well.
There is real harm being done to our society by keeping everything closed.
There's hard, really bad things happening to our economy as well, which will have ramifications.
But the schools, should the schools be open or not?
This is a slam-dunk issue.
There is zero science to back up people claiming the schools should be closed or even opened with any constraints whatsoever.
And I can go through the data, but the fact is, the bottom line, for instance, Chama Pediatrics, a very well-respected pediatric journal, published a study, including 46 hospitals in North America, and they said the following quote, our data indicate that children are at far greater risk of critical illness from influenza than from COVID-19, unquote.
Children are at extraordinarily low risk, near zero of dying, despite a sensationalized headline of, yes, every child that dies, it's a tragic loss.
I'm a parent.
I understand that.
But the point is that those exceptions don't disprove the overwhelming data.
When we have in the numbers of roughly 30-some children who have died in the United States this year from COVID-19, do people forget that the last estimate from influenza deaths from children was about 600 in the season, even with the vaccines, even with anything we know about decades of influenza.
And so we have to have some perspective here.
If we're going to close schools for the risk to children, then we must close schools every year from November through April because that's influenza season, which by the way kills 50 to 90,000 Americans per year.
Now the reality though is that there's more to it than that.
It's the teachers who are saying don't open the schools because there is no science to say there's a risk to children.
The teaching profession in the United States is a young profession.
Of K through 12 teachers, half are under 41 years old.
82% are under 55.
These people do not have a high risk.
And the reality is from data all over the world, on top of all that, that children only rarely, if ever, transmit the disease.
And this is data from Switzerland, Canada, the Netherlands, France, Iceland, the UK, Australia, Ireland, all over the world.
We don't reinvent the wheel and ignore all the facts here.
For people that say it's all about the science, let's look at the science.
The science says there is no significant risk to anyone in a school.
In fact, it's one of the safest places there are.
And so the reality is that people who are saying close the schools, they don't care about the children.
Period.
Let's get it on the table here.
The teachers that are against opening are literally saying they do not care about the children because they're ignoring not only there's no risk to the children, there's a harm to the children, a massive harm.
Distance learning is proven to be a failure from coast to coast.
30%, 50% of kids don't even log on on any given day.
Their reading levels have been estimated to drop by 30% by some.
And we know that this is worse for lower income families.
They don't have what I call the paraphernalia of the affluent.
They're not just going to buy a bunch of iPads and have a bunch of tutors come in and monitor them.
And besides that, schools are where we learn that children have a need for hearing aid or glasses.
The number one agency where child abuse is found is by the teachers in the schools, by the nurses in the schools.
There's a significant increase, by the way, as we know, it's documented in child abuse with maybe 35% of pediatric ER visits for severe child abuse increased during the lockdown due to the lockdown.
This is not a virus effect.
This is a lockdown.
And now we see we're not even going to see the child abuse.
By the way, many of their parents have lost jobs.
When you lose jobs, you have stress, you have increased opioid-related, you have increased child abuse.
This is a heinous, almost criminal neglect.
Teachers are not at risk.
Children have virtually no risk.
There is zero reason to have any spacing or masks and create a generation of neurotic kids.
Aren't schools an essential business, by the way?
And by the way, the last I looked, you know, the schools were for the children, not for the teachers.
If the teachers are high risk, and there are some high risk, if they believe that masks and spacing work, why can't they use that in the schools?
They must not believe that that works, or they would say we'll do that.
And if they are still afraid, by the way, that's fine.
High-risk teachers, in my opinion, should be allowed to teach from a distance, since they obviously believe that distance education works, by the way, or they wouldn't advocate for it.
They can teach from a distance.
That does not have anything to do with locking down schools.
Teachers, of all people, should be prioritizing the children.
And they obviously understand that children learn more than just the book information anyway.
When they are in person, they learn how to socially mature, how to work in groups, how to resolve conflicts, and they need facial expressions and cues and all the things that are obvious.
These things don't even have to be said, but it's beyond belief.
It's completely antithetical to science to insist that schools should not open, and it's antithetical to the recommendations of the experts.
In fact, the Hospital for Sick Kids in Toronto, one of the world's great pediatric hospitals, came out with an official statement, and their statements included schools should be open in person, full-time, no masks, no distancing, because that's what the science says.
This is not even controversial at this point.
We have become a hysterical country.
I'm sorry to say it.
We are an outlier internationally.
All the countries of Western Europe, their schools are opening, and there's no problem that they've seen for places that didn't even lock down the schools during the height of the pandemic.
So, I want to take a one-minute break and then come back.
And I want to ask you a very important question, I think.
And that is, then why?
Then, why is this happening?
Why do we have authorities coming out and saying this?
If it is so clear on science, one minute, we'll get that answer from Dr. Scott Atlas.
You can follow him at SW Atlas Hoover.
Our sponsor this half hour is Relief Factor.
Troy is a listener of ours.
He lives in Indiana, and he's what people who kind of call athletic.
He likes working out at the gym.
I don't understand.
But a while back, he found out that he enjoyed running, too.
So he ran his first 5K.
Again, I don't know why.
Afterwards, he found out his knees were starting to swell up every time he would run.
Right?
Because God didn't mean for you to run or he would have given you.
Anyway, if Troy wasn't sure what he was going to do, and nothing seemed to work for him to take the pain out of his knees, he was listening to the program and he decided to give Relief Factor a try.
And just after a few weeks of starting it, Troy had his life back, went back to running his stupid 5Ks with no problem anymore.

10 seconds station ID so we're talking to dr. Scott Atlas this So, Doctor, why is this happening then?
If we're the outlier, why are we made to feel all the time that we are Neanderthals because we believe that schools should be opened up or we think that the country is overreacting?
I mean, this is a good question that will be analyzed, I think, for decades.
You know, there's so many things happening now.
We're a country in an era where there's a lot of social media and everything is hyperbole.
I'm not a political analyst, but we seem to be pretty polarized on things.
And what's happened is that there is a lot of fear in the beginning, and we didn't know much about this disease.
And I think the fear is totally understandable.
I was afraid myself.
But in the end, you have to use logic and common sense here.
And I'm afraid we're talking about developing already.
Right.
We're talking about scientists.
We're talking about doctors.
We're not talking about the people on social media.
All doctors, if science is this clear, should be saying the same thing, and they're not.
Yeah, it's sort of inexplicable.
In fact, I get thousands of emails a week supporting what I'm saying from all over the world, including medical scientists and epidemiologists and infectious disease people, as well as regular people.
And a lot of them are afraid to speak up.
So that's one factor here is that there's a lot of people that have been pilloried by speaking against conventionalism.
I'm not afraid.
You know, and it's just my own personality, but I'm speaking on the evidence and the facts.
And you have to just say that we need to have common sense and logic.
And the good news of all this, they don't, unfortunately, they don't teach logic and common sense and deductive reasoning in medical school.
Believe me, the difference between a great doctor and a good doctor is not the amount of information they can memorize.
It's about using deductive reasoning and coming to the appropriate diagnosis.
And, you know, this is just absent here.
Smart alone is not sufficient, but we luckily can rely on Americans, I believe.
Once they're provided with the fact, as I try to do frequently, and the logic, they do get it.
Thank you, Dr. Scott Atlas.

and check out my show pat gray unleashed every weekday seven to nine eastern or anywhere you get your podcast it's a glenbeck program Pat, did you hear that Donald Trump just let Roger Stone go?
Yeah.
Just let him out.
Most corrupt administration ever in history.
Corrupt.
Oh, my God.
Man.
You know, at this point in his presidency, he's done that 11 times.
Not 11.
11.
And you compare that.
At this time at his presidency, Clinton had 61.
Yeah.
And Obama had a mere 17.
And wound up with 173.
330 on his last day alone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And just want to let you know that Bill Clinton commuted the sentence of 16 members of the FALN, the Puerto Rican paramilitary organization that set off 120 bombs in the United States, mostly New York and Chicago.
Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg both commuted, both members of the Weather Underground and the May 19 communist movement.
We've been talking about Susan Rosenberg lately because not only did she get out of prison, she went to work with the George Soros-funded Black Lives Matter Inc.
So we got that going.
Yeah, we got that going for you.
Of course, you know, I posted the whole list of just a few of the really bad people that Obama and Bill Clinton let out, including pardons exactly like Roger Stone that were just completely political.
And except the Clintons seemed to avoid being totally political.
It was more economic because it looked like they received a bribe for it.
But then again, who am I to judge?
Well, I mean, they did get a little contribution argument.
They got a slight contribution to the Clinton Foundation, but I'm sure that was a complete coincidence.
Just a total coincidence.
It was a complete coincidence.
Yes.
Yes.
And a complete coincidence now that she's out of political life that the Clinton Foundation is practically closed because they can't get money to those who really need it anymore for some reason.
Anyway, can we talk about the Redskins here for a second?
I wish we would.
This was a team that was never going to change its nickname, right?
Never.
Never, ever, never going to change.
Well, then money spoke pretty loudly, I guess.
Once FedEx, Pepsi, and Nike threatened him with $600 million being removed.
And I think there was 27 other sponsors or something, and it all added up to over half a billion dollars.
Then they were sort of convinced.
Oh, wait a minute.
You know what?
This is wow.
Problem math.
Offensive.
Yeah.
And you know what?
Now that the, now that the stadium that we're hoping the city will pay for won't be paid for by the city if we don't change our names.
My gosh.
Yeah.
What a racist name the Redskins.
That's very racist.
That wasn't a tribute to the original coach at all.
That's not what that was.
It is just a bad nickname.
We should have done this a long time ago.
Thank you for reminding us.
Yeah, it's and they've already made the official announcement and they announced that the Redskins name was going to change and they called it Redskins within the announcement that they're not going to say the name anymore six times.
And so everybody's jumping on him for that too.
You just, they can't win.
Right.
They just can't win.
So is it true that it's going to be the Washington Weasels?
Yes.
Yes.
That's what it's.
Yes.
Okay.
That's what it should be.
That's what it should be.
It should be.
It should be.
Should be.
The spineless, the weasels.
I mean, they are, it's incredible to me.
You know, I'm been thinking about the line in the scriptures about how men's hearts will fail them.
Yeah.
And that's what's happening.
Everybody is, everybody is just, they're too afraid, I guess.
Either that, what's strange is people are either too afraid or they're just, I don't even know, so apathetic that they don't even take the time to look into things.
I mean, it's amazing how many people are frightened into silence and others are like, yeah, well, I'm on the bandwagon because I'm a moron.
And, you know, there is another aspect of that.
And I think we've just been convinced that, ah, it doesn't matter that much.
Don't worry about it.
How does that hurt us if the Redskins name changes?
And I think people have convinced themselves that it's just not worth the fight.
It's not worth the battle.
And so they just give up.
And then it's too late once everything starts change.
And once they start banning words like master bedroom and master bathroom have to go because what do you think of when you think master bedroom?
Slave owner every time, right?
The master-slave relationship.
Never once have I ever thought about that being a slave-related name, master bedroom.
Because your white privilege.
Yeah, that's right.
That's because of your white privilege.
That's right.
I mean, that's, of course, what it is.
You know what I think of every time I hear master bedroom?
I think of Michelle Obama giving that speech.
I think she was in Puerto Rico.
Every time I hear the words master bedroom, I hear Michelle Obama say this.
And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices.
We're going to have to change our conversation.
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
We're going to have to move into a different place.
Mission accomplished.
You know, I was called racist for saying that the president was a Marxist, that he had Marxist tendencies and he was filling positions in our government with Marxists.
When I went on on Fox and said he doesn't hate America, he just happens to have a deep-seated hatred for the white culture, I think is what I said.
Isn't that what I said?
Yeah.
It's never been more true than right now.
I remember Katie Couric saying, what do you mean by the white culture?
Well, Katie, this, this is what I mean about hating the white culture.
This is what I mean.
That everything about this country is bad because white people were involved and white people are bad.
That's what I would call a racist.
And that's what I reastate, reaffirm today.
That this all stem, everything that's going on here stems from Barack Obama becoming president of the United States and pushing this into our system like a heroin plunger, just pushing it into our bloodstream.
And we're all sitting here now looking at a completely different America, a completely different America.
And what's next?
Probably a president because I think it's going to be rigged.
I mean, I just, the stuff where you have a cat getting a ballot in the mail.
Not even just a dead cat.
Dead for 12 years.
I think we have.
Yeah, we have the uh this dead cat get a registration form, fill it out, and send it in to get his absentee ballot.
How did that happen?
Yeah, check this out.
Listen to this report.
We're often being reminded to vote.
Some people are even getting flyers in the mail to register.
But Ron and Carol Tims say there's no way their cat is going to the polls.
When Ron Timms checked his mail Wednesday, he found something for Cody Tims.
Cody doesn't get much mail.
Cody is a cat.
He died 12 years ago.
The family keeps his ashes in this green container.
What a great cat, indoor, outdoor.
Loved his family, loved the neighborhood.
He was 18 and a half when he passed away.
So the Tims were surprised and a bit amused when they saw what came in the mail.
We have a voter registration application for Cody Timms.
It even came with a return envelope.
How'd this happen?
I mean, it's not reality.
He's a cat.
Here he is.
And he's been dead for a long time.
Carol Tims understands that in this election year, there's a huge push to get people to the polls.
There's a huge push, but if they're trying to register cats, I'm not quite sure who else they're trying to register.
Yeah.
I don't know if they're registering dogs.
Fish?
I mean, this is incredible.
And it was taken as a kicker story.
Who registered?
Who put Cody's name down?
How did the system get Cody the cat?
How did that happen?
How did that happen?
I mean, we are in deep, deep trouble.
Deep trouble.
And we're supposed to accept the fact that the mail-in ballots are perfectly legitimate.
There's no reason to.
You're a conspiracy theorist if you're worried about it.
Because the president has been talking about how a lot of bad things can happen with mail-in ballots.
Like, I don't know, dead cats voting.
And there's the evidence of it right there.
Steve Bannon came out this weekend and said, we have to jump on the bandwagon of the ballots.
He said, I know this is not the fight we want.
He said, but they are way ahead of us in ballots because they're doing all of this.
And he's like, if the Republicans don't play the game, we're going to lose.
I don't know what to say to that other than I'm not playing the game.
I'm not playing the game.
Do not become all that you despise.
Stand and stand in a place to where you can expect and call down miracles because we need them.
But you also need to stand in your own community.
Black Lives Matter has curriculum now in your schools.
It is already there.
And it's teaching about how bad being white is.
This is an abomination.
And Christians, you better wake up.
You have a responsibility.
And I'm telling you, you are going to be held.
I am too.
We're all going to be held accountable for what we do or do not right now because this is the freedom of all mankind on the chopping block.
And if we lose it here, it will be lost everywhere.
And it will be on our backs and our shoulders.
Our sponsor is American Financing.
Over the past few months, mortgage rates have fallen to all-time lows.
So many, many think that it's just routine.
But if you think that way and it makes you hesitate, it makes you think you can put it off, then you need to get that idea out of your head because the interest rates, these are not routine.
This kind of thing cannot go on forever.
If we return to sanity at all, they will not continue to fall.
We may not continue down into we may just we may be insane and our bottom might be the death of a nation.
I don't know.
But if we are going to save it, these things cannot continue.
And I want you to make sure that you are saving as much money as you can.
Right now, you can get an interest rate in the threes.
If you have anything at four or above, that's going to save you a lot of money.
And yeah, okay, so it goes down to, what happens if it goes down to one?
Good.
Then refinance again.
You'll save a buttload of money.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
There is a lot of stuff left on the table today.
Pat, let's go through some of the stuff that we haven't had a chance to get to.
Yeah, like Media Matters receiving $2 million in small business relief loans.
Hmm, I thought they needed the guts of this government.
Yeah, and they also don't need it as they get plenty of money from George Soros and others.
They are the last people that should get that money.
No question.
Well, last or second to the last, Robert De Niro has received his restaurant chain, Nobu, took 14 PPP loans.
He's got a high-end sushi restaurant and hotel chain founded by him, accepted as much as $27.7 million in taxpayer-backed loans.
Trump Cuts Ex-Wife's Amex Allowance00:02:17
Again, I thought he hated the guts of this administration.
I think Nobu is the most expensive restaurant in New York City.
Oh, is it really?
If I'm not mistaken, yeah, I think it's the most expensive in New York City.
Wow.
Figures it's owned by him.
Yes.
Yes, it does.
But he claims that his finances have been decimated by coronavirus.
Of course they have.
When you're charging $700 a setting, you're going to get to turn those tables.
But nobody's coming around.
But it's so bad.
He had to reduce his ex-wife's American Express allowance from $100,000 a month to just $50,000 a month.
So, you know, times are tough.
Oh, my gosh, how is she living?
I don't know how she's living.
She doesn't know either.
She's a little hacked off about it.
Wow.
Yeah.
Is this his ex-wife or his wife?
Yeah, his ex-wife.
His ex.
Oh, his ex-wife.
Well, there's no doubt that that has nothing but truth ringing through to that one.
You know, he's struggling, so she's struggling.
That's right.
That's right.
Also, Colorado town is threatening residents with a year in jail if they defy the mandatory face mask order, up to a year in jail and $2,650 fine.
You could get both.
Good.
Isn't that good?
Good.
Right.
Good.
We're going to keep you right under our thumb.
Fascists.
Yes.
We love fascists.
You know, it's strange because all the fascists seem to be in Democrat-run towns and states.
Isn't that weird?
Isn't that weird?
Yeah.
Really strange.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All the anti-fascists.
By the way, it seems to be anti-fascists.
It's kind of very strange.
Did you see that Trump said no to the emergency aid for Minneapolis?
And I say good, good.
Yeah.
The city of Minneapolis asked for emergency aid and wanted to have their city declared an emergency situation.
Trump said, nope, you caused this.
You did it.
You did nothing to stop it.
We're not going to pay up.
Why would we, the taxpayers everywhere else, pay for your mistakes?
