Glenn and The Grammys: What did he think of Muse?

February 14, 2011
 Wilson

Writer

What has been the shocker of the morning? Glenn started off the show with coverage of the Grammys! One of Glenn’s favorite bands, Muse, performed and he talked about the performance and put it into the context of the current political atmosphere.

“I want to start some place unusual.  I want to start with the Grammys last night and the video and the audio of Muse.  Muse, I don't know, did they win anything last night?” Glenn asked, obviously carrying less about the bands awards than the messages of their music.

“ I didn't watch the Grammys.  Don't really care,” he added.

Muse won Best Rock Album.

“They are unbelievable, in the unbelievable group, and this is a song that we played on this program about a year ago and I said, listen to the lyrics of this.  Now, go ahead and roll the tape of Muse last night on the Grammys.  Now, it starts with the video screens in the back with the Gadsden flag, the snake saying don't tread on me,” Glenn said.

They then played Muse’s “Uprising”.

“The lyrics of this song are so unbelievably powerful and they are ‑‑ they are not going to degrade us anymore, they're not going to ‑‑ they're not going to shape us or anything else.  It's us,” Glenn said of the song’s lyrics.

“We have the power.  In the lyrics here, they're talking about how paranoia is everywhere, they are trying to push drugs and everything else to keep us all dumbed down”

“They will not force us.  They'll stop degrading us.  They will not control us.  We'll be victorious.”

Glenn explained that the song provided the inspiration for the 2010 theme of his radio show.

During Muse’s performance, the Gadsden flag was shown at the beginning. Why was this significant?

“The Gadsden flag at the beginning of this has been, you know, represents in many ways the Tea Party spirit,” he explained. “At the end of this it shows Camilla and Prince Charles in the back of their Rolls Royce where they are trying to beat them and kill them in the streets.  And it shows flames coming up in the video screens, et cetera, et cetera.  So you have basically a call for revolution by this group.”

“Now, you have to remember these are Europeans and they have been degraded for a very long time.  Really since the beginning of time.  They have had very few glimpses of real freedom.  Even when England won the second world war, they didn't go into freedom.  That's where the Road to Serfdom came from because Winston Churchill and many others all said, wait, what are you doing?  We're going the wrong direction.  And it didn't go to freedom.  It went to the Road to Serfdom.”

“There are those that are calling for revolution and they are everywhere, and they are the Muslim extremists, they are the communist revolutionaries, they are the anarchists, and then you have the Tea Party movement.  The Tea Party movement is not calling for revolution.  The Tea Party movement is calling for a restoration.”

“If the Tea Party movement has anarchists or revolutionaries in it, it is trouble because revolution doesn't help anyone, as I believe we will see in Egypt in the end.  Everyone is celebrating this Egyptian revolution.  I don't think it ends well.”

Why would Hunter Biden release a memoir NOW?

During his campaign, President Joe Biden survived scandal after scandal involving his son Hunter — the Ukraine/Burisma scandal, the laptop scandal, the one involving a stripper from Arkansas and a long-lost child. And yet, after it all appeared to have been swept under the rug, Hunter has now released a memoir — "Beautiful Things."

Filling in for Glenn Beck on the radio program this week, Pat Gray and Stu Burguiere discussed Hunter's "horrible" response when asked on "CBS This Morning" if the laptop seized by the FBI in 2019 belonged to him and reviewed a few segments from his new book, which they agreed raises the question: Is Hunter trying to sabotage his father's career?

Glenn Beck: Here's why MAJOR companies are going all-out woke over Georgia's voting laws

Countless corporations — from Delta Air Lines, Coca-Cola, and Porsche to UPS and LinkedIn — are calling out the Georgia voting laws, calling them "restrictive," "racist," and "discriminative." Meanwhile, words like "stakeholder" and "equitable" are starting to show up in their arguments.

On the radio program, Glenn Beck gave the "decoder ring" for what's really going on here, because our society is being completely redesigned in front of our eyes.

There's a reason why all these big businesses are speaking out now, and it has very little to do with genuine ideology, Glenn explained. It's all about ESG scores and forcing "compliance" through the monetization of social justice.

Glenn went on to detail exactly what ESG scores are, how they're calculated, and why these social credit scores explain the latest moves from "woke" companies.

Who is the REAL Jesus? THIS is what America needs to hear today

Dallas Jenkins is a storyteller — and he's telling the most important story of all time in a way that many believed was impossible.

Jenkins is the creator of "The Chosen," a free, crowdfunded series about the life of Jesus that rivals Hollywood productions. And Season 2 could not have arrived at a better time — on Easter weekend 2021. Church attendance has dropped, people are hungry for something bigger than all of us, and many are choosing social justice activism, political parties, or even the climate change movement as "religions" over God.

This Easter weekend, Jenkins joined Glenn on the "Glenn Beck Podcast" to discuss the aspects of Jesus that often get overlooked and break through the misconceptions about who Jesus really is to paint a clear picture of why America needs Emmanuel, "God with us," now more than ever.

Lara Logan: Biden's border crisis is enabling the 'MOST POWERFUL criminal organizations' on Earth

Award-winning investigative journalist Lara Logan joined Glenn Beck on the radio program this week to argue the Biden administration's border crisis is "enabling" drug cartels, allowing them to exploit migrants, use border wall construction roads, and cross the border much more easily.

Lara, who has witnessed and experienced firsthand some of the worst violence around the world as a war correspondent for CBS News, told Glenn it's "not an overstatement" to call the cartels in Mexico "the most violent and powerful criminal organizations on the face of the earth." And while they're "at war with us, we've been asleep at the wheel."

But Lara also offers solutions that the U.S. can enact to stop these horrific atrocities.

"There's more than 30,000 Mexican civilians who are massacred every year in Mexico by the cartels. And that's just the bodies that the Mexican government owns up to or knows about, right?" Lara said. "There's Mexicans buried in unmarked mass graves all across the country. I mean, everyone knows that the violence of the cartels is not like anything anyone has ever seen before. It even pales in comparison to, at times, to what terrorist groups like ISIS have done."

Lara went on to explain some of the unspeakable acts of violence and murder that occur at the hands of the Mexican cartels — 98% of which go uninvestigated.

"That's not unprosecuted, Glenn. That's uninvestigated," Lara emphasized. "[Cartels] operate with impunity. So the law enforcement guy, the policemen, the marine, the National Guardsmen, who are trying to do the right thing, who are not in the pocket of the cartels — what chance do those guys have? They've got no chance. You know where they end up? In one of those unmarked graves."
