Who has a better plan to handle Ebola: Politicians or a half-asleep Glenn Beck?

How should the United States government be handling the news that Ebola is now here in the United States? Glenn thinks the solutions aren’t that difficult to figure out - in fact, he’s willing to bet he could solve them in his sleep. Well, not in his sleep, but in the middle of the night when he’s half asleep. Are Glenn’s half asleep solutions better?

Before going into the plan, Glenn expressed his frustration with so many people mocking his prediction that Ebola would come to Texas.

"The problem though, Glenn, you make so many predictions. So many of them. Caliphate is coming to the Middle East. Oh, the economy is going to collapse. So many of them are so ridiculous, that when you get one right luckily that you did here, it's hard to process," Stu joked.

"The point was: You can't have people flying back and forth. Why are we letting -- why are we hiring people, why are we letting people fly back and forth from West Africa? It's a really bad idea.

And because Texas has such a high number of people doing it, it probably seems like a hot zone. Now, I didn't know the guy's name was Bert or whatever his name was. You're right. I got that one wrong. He wasn't a prison guard. But everything else I had right," Glenn said.

Glenn wrote on his Facebook page last night:

Who was it that made fun of me, called me crazy and a fear monger WITHIN THE LAST TWO WEEKS, for saying that Texas was a possible outbreak sight of Ebola due to prison guards (1/3 are from Africa) and the border? Mocked again for a logical argument while the administration said it would be highly unlikely that we would EVER have a case in the us!

When will America recognize that this president's advisors and his gut are almost against all odds bad?

Tomorrow we will have a look at what this means and what we all need to know and do.

1. Don't panic.

2. Stop listening to those who continue to get it wrong.

Just remember, your life and, quite frankly, the life of our republic, economy and the western way of life are in the hands of a group of people who told you:

Al Qaeda is over. (Khorasan bombed last week because they are an imminent homeland threat.)

ISIS is a JV league team. (Currently a global threat.)

Oklahoma beheading was "workplace violence".

The world would be safer if Libya and Egypt had new leadership.

A caliphate was laughable, ridiculous and a fantasy.

They knew who the bad guys were in Syria and we should arm them.

Ebola would not come to our shores.

The border is more secure than ever.

The Secret Service was doing a good job.

Russia was not a threat.

There are no radical Muslims in the U.S. unless they are lone wolves.

Wake up! On 60 Minutes, he said it was the intel community that failed us. They got the Middle East wrong.

If it is true, why hasn't he asked for the resignations of people like James Clapper?

If they were wrong, Mr. President, when will you replace them? They weren't mildly wrong. They were WILDLY wrong.

America, think of the things that are still out there: the IRS, NSA scandal, Benghazi, reporters and whistle blower scandals.

How about the printing of all this money? 4 trillion dollars?! He said, there will be no inflation. Does the price of meat and milk reflect this truth?

Do you trust that the government is actually watching the right things and has done what we need to keep us safe?

Pray for our country and her citizens.

Pray for our president and his family. The Secret Service is out of control. The agents know it the field. It is the management that is wildly irresponsible.

In light of all that, Glenn decided to see who was better at giving the American advice. Is it the politicians and advisors who routinely get it wrong? Or Glenn when he wakes up from a dead sleep?

I think I am going to try something new:

FROM A DEAD SLEEP.

You ask me a question and when I wake up from a dead sleep I will answer a question.

Let's see if I can do better than those advisors and politicians who are supposedly wide awake.

Topics can range full spectrum.

Ebola? What to do?

From a dead sleep.

Non-essential travel ban from west Africa.

Secure the border. Stop all people from coming over north and south, but especially the out of control south.

Put out clear and concise symptom chart, etc., from the oval saying not to panic, but information helps people feel like they have more control and they would. Because when we find patient two or three, people will begin to panic.

I would also, in that same address, tell people to calmly get food storage, have some cash on hand and fuel in your tank.

Now, because I am waking from a dead sleep, I may not be thinking clearly enough to realize the ramifications of a presidential address and the panic that might ensue. But at this point, I am the president and people have already heard my warnings before, so they are a little dead inside from presidential panic due to how I handled Putin and Isis from a dead sleep, so they are already prepared.

Oh, I also tell my friends that they should remember the dome in New Orleans. Whatever the fed tells you to do, go or gather: DONT.

Now leave me alone, I have got to get some sleep.

Good advice, right.

Now, there is absolutely nothing that could go wrong with this new half-asleep column, right?

"I just want to make sure that I'm clear to America that I foresee no negative consequences of you answering emails in the middle of the morning from a dead sleep. I can't see one negative consequence that could possibly come out of that. I want to make sure that everyone knows that there's no way that it could go wrong. It's impossible that something could go wrong in that situation," Stu joked.

"Sometimes I'm going to get these things wrong," Glenn said laughing.

COVID is back! Or that is what we’re being told anyway...

A recent spike in COVID cases has triggered the left's alarm bells, and the following institutions have begun to reinstate COVID-era mandates. You might want to avoid them if you enjoy breathing freely...

Do YOU think institutions should bring back COVID-era mandates if cases increase? Let us know your thoughts HERE.

There was a time when both the Left and the Right agreed that parents have the final say in raising their children... Not anymore.

In the People's Republic of California, the STATE, not parents, will determine whether children should undergo transgender treatments. The California state legislature just passed a law that will require judges in child custody cases to consider whether parents support a child’s gender transition. According to the law, the state now thinks total affirmation is an integral part of a child’s “health, safety, and welfare.”

We are inching closer to a dystopia where the state, not the parents, have ultimate rights over their children, a history that people from former Soviet nations would feign repeating.

The Biden admin has let in MORE illegal aliens than the populations of THESE 15 states

There are currently an estimated 16.8 MILLION illegal aliens residing in the United States as of June 2023, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). This number is already 1.3 million higher than FAIR's January 2022 estimate of 15.5 million and a 2.3 million increase from its end-of-2020 estimate. Even Democrats like New York City's Mayor Adams Mayor Adams are waking up to what Conservatives have been warning for years: we are in a border CRISIS.

However, this isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010. In the first two years of the Biden administration alone, the illegal alien population increased by 16 PERCENT nationwide, imposing a whopping net cost of $150.6 BILLION PER YEAR on American taxpayers. That is nearly DOUBLE the total amount that the Biden administration has sent to Ukraine.

This isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010.

These large numbers often make it difficult to conceptualize the sheer impact of illegal immigration on the United States. To put it in perspective, we have listed ALL 15 states and the District of Colombia that have smaller populations than the 2.3 MILLION illegal immigrants, who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration. That is more than the entire populations of Wyoming, Vermont, and South Dakota COMBINED—and the American taxpayers have to pay the price.

Here are all 16 states/districts that have FEWER people than the illegal immigrants who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration.

1. New Mexico

Population: 2,110,011

2. Idaho

Population: 1,973,752

3. Nebraska

Population: 1,972,292

4. West Virginia

Population: 1,764,786

5. Hawaii

Population: 1,433,238

6. New Hampshire

Population: 1,402,957

7. Maine

Population: 1,393,442

8. Montana

Population: 1,139,507

9. Rhode Island

Population: 1,090,483

10. Delaware

Population: 1,031,985

11. South Dakota

POLL: Should the Government control the future of AI?

Earlier this week, tech titans, lawmakers, and union leaders met on Capitol Hill to discuss the future of AI regulation. The three-hour meeting boasted an impressive roster of tech leaders including, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and others, along with more than 60 US Senators.

The meeting was closed to the public, so what was exactly discussed is unknown. However, what we do know is that a majority of the CEOs support AI regulation, the most vocal of which is Elon Musk. During the meeting, Musk called AI "a double-edged sword" and strongly pushed for regulation in the interest of public safety.

A majority of the CEOs support AI regulation.

Many other related issues were discussed, including the disruption AI has caused to the job market. As Glenn has discussed on his program, the potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real, and many have already felt the effects. From taxi drivers to Hollywood actors and writers, AI's presence can be felt everywhere and lawmakers are unsure how to respond.

The potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real.

Ultimately, the meeting's conclusion was less than decisive, with several Senators making comments to the tune of "we need more time before we act." The White House is expected to release an executive order regarding AI regulation by the end of the year. But now it's YOUR turn to tell us what YOU think needs to be done!

Should A.I. be regulated?

Can the government be trusted with the power to regulate A.I.? 

Can Silicon Valley be trusted to regulate AI? 

Should AI development be slowed for safety, despite its potential advantages?

If a job can be done cheaper and better by AI, should it be taken away from a human?

Do you feel that your job is threatened by AI?
