Glenn's Show Prep

Someone produced a country song promoting Hillary Clinton and it’s worse than you could imagine

December 05, 2014
Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program

Somewhere, someone thought a really good way to promote Hillary Clinton’s 2016 Presidential campaign would be to create a country song about how wonderful Hillary Clinton is and spread it around the internet. It is infinitely more horrible than anything you could possibly imagine. Brace yourself and listen to it along with Glenn’s reaction!

GLENN: Welcome to the program. We have — stop the music, because the real piece of music here for you. This came in yesterday. And Tania and I — I played it for Tania without — without telling her what it was, and she looked up at me halfway through and she laughed and she said, is this you guys?

(laughing).

GLENN: And I said, no, honey, this is not us doing a parody. This is serious, a new song for the Hillary campaign. Listen to this.

(music).

GLENN: By the way, when I hear country music —

PAT: You think Hillary immediately.

GLENN: I think of Hillary Clinton immediately.

(laughing).

(music playing)

(singing)

GLENN: This is so bad.

(singing).

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Stop.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Stop. Let's put our boots on. Guys, let's put our boots on and bash this glass ceiling.

JEFFY: Yeah.

GLENN: This is —

PAT: Wait, you're bashing in a glass ceiling with your boots?

GLENN: Yeah.

PAT: So —

GLENN: Don't think about it. They spray painted 2016 on glass. So it's guys, let's bash this glass ceiling for women.

JEFFY: Yeah.

PAT: It's time to elect a woman.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

PAT: In the 21st —

GLENN: What's amazing is how — how bogus this whole thing is. We were looking — what the world is striving for, they're starving for anything that is authentic. They are so sick of all of the make-believe bull crap. You can see it a million miles away. This shows you how out of touch the people in the Clinton campaign are. They are — even if Hillary said I didn't have anything to do with this song. The people who are behind Hillary, that they would think that you could pull this off. It is so far out of — out of their comfort zone. Does anybody think — remember when Hillary did that speech, and she's like, well, I just here because I'm tired. You're like, what was that?

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: They just think they can wear any mask and it will be okay. And people will buy it. Is.

JEFFY: So is this entitled cowgirl kankles or —

GLENN: Stop it. Go ahead.

(singing).

PAT: She's a living wife? Is she — you never see her and Bill together. Where do you get? And through it all she's a living wife. I never seen a couple more in love than Bill and Hill. What are you talking about?

(laughing).

PAT: Where does that come from?

(singing).

GLENN: Unbelievable. She fights for country and family. Like she fought for the — like she fought for the families of the Benghazi victims?

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Like that — is that how she was fighting?

(singing).

PAT: This is so bad.

GLENN: It's hysterical.

PAT: Oh, man.

GLENN: It's hysterical.

JEFFY: Is this on the charts yet?

(singing).

PAT: Or if you drive a truck or not, because I know that has to be in one of them country songs. Trying to emulate —

GLENN: It's so bad. Whether you live in a red or blue state, it's 2016, let's get to the polls.

(laughing).

GLENN: It's awful.

(singing).

GLENN: There's some what, honchos —

PAT: There's hard —

GLENN: Hard choices.

PAT: That need to be made.

GLENN: Buy her book by the same name.

(laughing).

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. And there's hard choices to be made.

PAT: Oh.

(singing).

GLENN: Wait, stop. We need a leader who's tough and gritty.

PAT: Gritty.

GLENN: Not gritty, ready.

PAT: I thought it was ready.

GLENN: Because her deal is ready. We need a leader that's tough and ready.

PAT: Ready.

(singing).

GLENN: That's my final decision.

(singing).

GLENN: Stop. There was a great comment on the Facebook page last night. You have to read my Facebook comments on this. They are so funny. The Facebook comments came in. They were all observations like, notice whenever he says that she's — through it all she's a loving wife, they had to go back and find the pictures from like 1964.

(laughing).

PAT: You can't find them even together anymore.

GLENN: No, you have to go back to the Yale pictures.

JEFFY: They were just photographed in the Hamptons together not long ago, right?

PAT: Like a year ago on vacation?

JEFFY: Yeah.

PAT: Walking about the beach —

GLENN: Let's be honest. They're in their 60s.

JEFFY: I thought they looked okay. Hillary didn't cover up the kankles like he should have.

GLENN: Is to have.

(laughing).

GLENN: You have, I have to hand it to Hillary and any woman who will age gracefully in today's world. You know, stop trying with a plastic surgery and stop trying to look like you're 20 years old.

JEFFY: Joe Biden job Joe Biden.

GLENN: Joe Biden. He's honestly —

JEFFY: Nancy Pelosi.

GLENN: He's starting to look Asian. His skin is pulled back so much his eyes are starting to look Asian. Stop it. That's creeping me out. How vain do you have to be? Let's give Hillary some credit. She's not trying to act like she's 40 years old. She's in her 60s. Good for her. I met Steve Forbes' wife. We were having dinner and Steve Forbes' wife was sitting next to me. When you think of really, really rich, really, really rich people, and their wife, what do you expect their wife too long like?

PAT: Plastic.

GLENN: His wife looked like — like I remember — and I don't mean this to be rude, but she's an older lady now. She's in her 70s. She looked like my grandmother. And I love that. She wasn't trying to hide her gray hair. She hadn't had plastic surgery. She was a normal human being. And I have so much respect for her. I mean, I loved that. And you have to hand it to Hillary. She's not trying to make herself look, you know, younger.

PAT: No, but if she did, I think she'd be — there would be some notice of that and it would probably be embarrassing for her. There might be some ulterior motive not to do anything or she just may not want to. I don't know.

GLENN: Maybe she's comfortable in her own skin.

PAT: She might, yeah. She might be. She'd get some flack from the right if —

GLENN: She would but she wouldn't get it from the left.

PAT: Not at all.

GLENN: Nobody is saying a word about Joe Biden.

JEFFY: No.

GLENN: That would be a joke. That should be a big joke everywhere.

JEFFY: Nobody said a word about Pelosi forever, right?

GLENN: Right. If — if — you know, you're doing a comedy show, you start to notice the things like Joe Biden eyes going — he has not a wrinkle in his face now. He's completely Botoxed out and his eyes are positively pulled back. You start to make fun of that. But nobody is saying anything about it. It just shows how in touch — take us out on the Hillary song.

(singing).

PAT: Aah — yeah. Hillary.

(singing).

PAT: She let four Americans die in Benghazi without lifting a finger. So did the entire administration. We need four more years of this. It's time to stand up for this woman who's so in love with the man who keeps cheating on her.

JEFFY: Can I get an amen.

GLENN: And if you don't like her, let's vote for Jeb.

(laughing).

GLENN: Bush or Hillary.

PAT: So awful.

GLENN: We should do a country song — we should do an R and B song for Jeb.

PAT: That would be —

GLENN: Because when I think of Jeb Bush, I think R and B. When I think of Hillary, I think of country music. When I think of Jeff Jeb, I think of R and B.

PAT: Let's do that. That let's do that. That would be fun.

(laughing).

GLENN: Whoo. Is that bad?

PAT: They're on to something there.

POLL: Did astronomers discover PROOF of alien life?

Print Collector / Contributor | Getty Images

Are we alone in the universe?

It's no secret that Glenn keeps one eye on the cosmos, searching for any signs of ET. Late last week, a team of astronomers at the University of Cambridge made an exciting discovery that could change how we view the universe. The astronomers were monitoring a distant planet, K2-18b, when the James Webb Space Telescope detected dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide, two atmospheric gases believed only to be generated by living organisms. The planet, which is just over two and a half times larger than Earth, orbits within the "habitable zone" of its star, meaning the presence of liquid water on its surface is possible, further supporting the possibility that life exists on this distant world.

Unfortunately, humans won't be able to visit K2-18b to see for ourselves anytime soon, as the planet is about 124 light-years from Earth. This means that even if we had rockets that could travel at the speed of light, it would still take 124 years to reach the potentially verdant planet. Even if humans made the long trek to K2-18b, they would be faced with an even more intense challenge upon arrival: Gravity. Assuming K2-18b has a similar density to Earth, its increased size would also mean it would have increased gravity, two and a half times as much gravity, to be exact. This would make it very difficult, if not impossible, for humans to live or explore the surface without serious technological support. But who knows, give Elon Musk and SpaceX a few years, and we might be ready to seek out new life (and maybe even new civilizations).

But Glenn wants to know what you think. Could K2-18b harbor life on its distant surface? Could alien astronomers be peering back at us from across the cosmos? Would you be willing to boldly go where no man has gone before? Let us know in the poll below:

Could there be life on K2-18b?

Could there be an alien civilization thriving on K2-18b?

Will humans develop the technology to one day explore distant worlds?

Would you sign up for a trip to an alien world?

Is K2-18b just another cold rock in space?

Big Pharma’s role in rising neurological disorders: Will RFK Jr. uncover the truth?

Anna Moneymaker / Staff | Getty Images

Our children are sick, and Big Pharma claims to be the cure, but is RFK Jr. closer to proving they are the disease?

For years, neurological disorders in our children have been on the rise. One in nine children in the U.S. has been diagnosed with ADHD, and between 2016 and 2022, more than one million kids were told they suffer from the disorder. Similarly, autism diagnoses have increased by 175 percent over the past decade. RFK Jr. pledged to investigate the rising rates of neurological disorders as Secretary of Health and Human Services, and this week, he announced a major initiative.

Earlier this week, RFK Jr. announced that the HHS has embarked on a massive testing and research effort to uncover the root causes of autism and the sharp spike in recent diagnoses. The HHS Secretary vowed that the results will be available by September of this year, leaving many skeptical about the study's rigor. Conversely, some speculate that the HHS may have unpublished studies revealing critical insights into these disorders, just waiting to see the light of day.

Glenn brought up a recent article by the Daily Wire referencing a New York Times piece in which experts questioned the legitimacy of ADHD diagnoses. Glenn agreed and suggested that people are just wired differently; they learn, work, and study differently, and the cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all school system simply fails to accommodate everyone.

New York Times' ADHD Admission

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

Earlier this week, the New York Times published an article that made a shocking admission: there are no concrete biological markers for ADHD. The clinical definition of ADHD is no longer supported by the evidence, and there are no physical, genetic, or chemical identifiers for the disorder, nor is there any real way to test for it. The paper also admitted that people diagnosed with ADHD would suddenly find that they no longer had any symptoms after a change of environment, profession, or field of study. This suggests that "ADHD" might simply be a matter of interests and skills, not a chronic brain sickness.

The most horrifying implication of this admission is that millions of people, including children, have been prescribed heavy mind-altering drugs for years for a disorder that lacks real evidence of its very existence. These drugs are serious business and include products such as Adderall, Ritalin, and Desoxyn. All of these drugs are considered "Schedule II," which is a drug classification that puts them on the same level as cocaine, PCP, and fentanyl. Notably, Desoxyn is chemically identical to methamphetamine, differing only in its production in regulated laboratories rather than illegal settings.

Worse yet, studies show that these medications, like Desoxyn, often provide no long-term benefits. Testing demonstrated that in the short term, there were some positive effects, but after 36 months, there was no discernible difference in symptoms between people who were medicated and those who were not. For decades, we have been giving our children hardcore drugs with no evidence of them working or even that the disorder exists.

RFK Jr's Autism Study

Autism rates are on the rise, and RFK Jr. is going to get to the bottom of it. In the year 2000, approximately one in 150 children was diagnosed with autism, but only 20 years later, the rate had increased to one in 36. While some claim that this is simply due to more accurate testing, RFK Jr. doesn't buy it and is determined to discover what is the underlying cause. He is an outspoken critic of vaccines, asserting that the true scope of their side effects has been buried by greed and corruption to sell more vaccines.

RFK Jr. doesn't plan on stopping at vaccines. Similar to ADHD, RFK Jr. suspects other environmental factors could increase of autism or exacerbate symptoms. Factors like diet, water quality, air pollution, and parenting approaches are all under investigation. It's time to bring clarity to the neurological disorders that plague our nation, cut through the corruption, and reveal the healing truth.

Neurological Intervention

Big Pharma has been all too happy to sit back and watch as the rate of neurological disorders climbs, adding to the ever-growing list of permanent patients who are led to believe that their only choice is to shell out endless money for treatments, prescriptions, and doctor visits. Rather than encouraging lifestyle changes to improve our well-being, they push ongoing medication and costly treatments.

All RFK Jr. is doing is asking questions, and yet the backlash from the "experts" is so immense that one can't help but wonder what they could be hiding. Both Glenn and RFK Jr. have their suspicions of Big Pharma, and the upcoming HHS study might be one of the most important steps to making America healthy again.

Why do planes keep crashing?

STR / Contributor | Getty Images

Last week, two more serious air travel incidents occurred, adding to the mounting number of aviation disasters this year. Is flying safe?

Over the past year, the number of aviation disasters that have been blasted across the media has been steadily rising, with February alone having a half dozen incidents. It begs the question: Is air travel becoming more dangerous? Or has the media just increased its coverage of a "normal" amount of crashes?

If you look at the data, it suggests that flying has been—and remains—safe. The number of accidents and fatalities has been steadily decreasing year over year and remains a small percentage of total flights. In 2024, out of the approximate 16 million flights recorded by the Federal Aviation Administration in the U.S. every year, there were 1,150 accidents resulting in 304 fatalities, meaning that the average flight in America has a 0.007% chance of an accident. In addition, the National Transportation Safety Board records a decrease in both fatal and non-fatal aviation accidents when compared to 2024. By this time last year, there were already 399 crashes and accidents, while this year has only clocked in 271.

That being said, Sean Duffy, Trump's new transportation secretary, admitted that America's air traffic control system needs an overhaul. Duffy pointed toward dated air traffic control equipment, overregulation, and radical DEI as the culprits behind many recent aviation accidents.

But what do the crashes suggest? We've gathered details about the major aviation accidents this year so you can decide for yourself why planes keep crashing:

American Airlines Blackhawk collision over D.C.

In one of the deadliest U.S. aviation accidents in the last decade, an American Airlines plane collided with a Black Hawk helicopter over the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. The American Airlines flight was approaching Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport carrying 60 passengers and four crew when it collided midair with the Army helicopter, crewed by three, killing all 67 people involved.

The exact cause behind the mid-air collision is still under investigation, but it is believed that the Black Hawk was up too high and outside of its designated flight path. A report from the New York Times suggests that the air control tower at the Ronald Regan Washington Airport has suffered years of understaffing, which seems to be a result of DEI hiring practices. Investigators are piecing through the wreckage, and the exact cause of the crash is still unknown.

Medevac explosion in Philadelphia

On the night of Friday, March 31st, a medevac plane with six people on board crashed into a Philadelphia neighborhood, killing everyone on board, along with one man on the ground. The small jet departed from Northeast Philadelphia Airport at 6 pm, and according to the FAA, it crashed less than a minute later after reaching an elevation of 1,650 feet. The ensuing explosion cast a massive fireball into the sky and wounded 19 people on the ground, killing one.

The six people on board the jet were Mexican nationals, including a mother and her sick daughter who was receiving treatment from Shriners Children’s Hospital in northeast Philadelphia. As of now, there is no official cause of the crash, but much of the plane has been recovered, and the incident is being investigated.

Alaskan flight disappearance outside of Nome

At approximately 3:16 pm, on Thursday, February 6th, a small commuter plane working for Bering Air, carrying 10 passengers, took off from the town of Unalakeet, Alaska, destined for the nearby town of Nome. After a few hours, Nome lost contact with the small plane as weather conditions worsened. The following day, the Coast Guard discovered the remains of the plane, all 10 occupants were dead.

The wreckage of the aircraft, along with the remains of the passengers and crew, have been recovered and are under investigation. While there has been no official explanation given for the crash, the poor weather is believed to be a major contributing factor.

Small jet collision in Scottsdale

The pilot of a small jet died after the aircraft crashed into a larger plane in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Monday, February 10th. The owner of the jet that crashed was Vince Neil, the frontman of the heavy metal band Mötley Crüe, but Neil was not on board at the time of the accident. The jet had just landed in Scottsdale, where it appeared to veer out of control and smash into a parked Gulfstream at high speed. The plane was carrying four people: two pilots and two passengers. One of the pilots was killed, and the other three were seriously injured. There was only one person aboard the Gulfstream at the time of the crash, they suffered injuries but refused treatment.

It is believed that the landing gear failed upon landing, which caused the jet to skitter out of control and smash into the parked plane.

Delta crash in Toronto

On Monday, February 17th, a Delta aircraft flipped while landing and slid upside down across the runway while ablaze at Toronto Pearson International Airport. Fortunately, all 80 people aboard survived, and only three people suffered critical (though not life-threatening) injuries. First responders were quickly on the scene, extinguishing the fires and assisting the grateful survivors out of the wreckage.

The crash is believed to have been caused in part by the extreme weather in Toronto, which included a powerful crosswind and potential ice on the runway. It is also suspected that the landing gear failed to deploy properly, causing the plane to flip in the severe wind.

Small plane collision north of Tucson

On Wednesday, February 19th, yet another small plane crash occurred in the skies above Arizona. Two small aircraft collided midair near Tusosn, Arizona at Marana Regional Airport. There were two people in each of the small planes, two of which from the same aircraft died, while the other two managed to walk away with little injury.

Marana Regional Airport is an uncontrolled field, which means there is no active air traffic control present on site. Instead, pilots rely on communication with each other through a "Common Traffic Advisory Frequency" (CTAF) to safely take off and land.

Hudson helicopter crash

A helicopter tour out of New York City took a tragic turn on Thursday, April 10th, when the Bell 206 broke apart mid-flight and plunged into the Hudson River. All six people aboard perished in the crash, which included the pilot and a tourist family of five.

New York Helicopter Tours, the operator of the flight, announced it would cease operations following the accident. The decision comes amid scrutiny of the company’s safety record, which includes a prior emergency water landing and another incident where a helicopter was forced to land shortly after takeoff due to mechanical issues. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

Upstate New York family tragedy

Days after the tragic Hudson crash, a small private plane carrying an NCAA athlete crashed in upstate New York, killing all six passengers. On Saturday, April 12, 2025, Karenna Groff, a former MIT soccer player and 2022 Woman of the Year, was aboard her father's Mitsubishi MU-2B with her parents, boyfriend, brother, and his partner when the plane went down in a muddy field in Copake, New York.

The aircraft was reportedly in good condition, and Michael Groff, Karenna's father, was an experienced pilot. While the official cause of the crash has not been determined, low visibility at the time of the incident is suspected to have been a contributing factor.

The recent string of aviation incidents underscores a troubling trend in air travel safety, raising urgent questions about the systems and policies governing the industry. While data suggests flying remains statistically safe, the alarming frequency of crashes, near misses, and systemic issues like outdated technology and questionable hiring practices cannot be ignored. BlazeTV's own Stu Burguiere did a deep dive into the recent crashes in the Blaze Originals documentary, Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster, uncovering the truth behind the FAA’s shift toward DEI hiring and its impact on aviation safety. Featuring exclusive interviews with former air traffic controllers, lawyers, and Robert Poole—the inventor of TSA PreCheck—this documentary exposes how the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, under Pete Buttigieg’s leadership, have contributed to making air travel more dangerous than ever.

Did Democrats just betray fair elections? The SAVE Act controversy explained

DOMINIC GWINN / Contributor | Getty Images

One of President Trump’s key campaign promises, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, faces fierce opposition from Democrats in the Senate.

The SAVE Act recently passed Congress for the second time and is now headed to the Senate. This voter security bill mandates proof of U.S. citizenship for all federal elections. It garnered unanimous Republican support in Congress but was backed by only four Democrats, consistent with last year’s Senate rejection of the bill.

Glenn has repeatedly emphasized the urgency of securing our elections, warning that without reform in the next four years, free and fair elections may become a thing of the past. However, the SAVE Act faces significant hurdles. Republicans lack the Senate votes to overcome a filibuster, meaning the bill’s fate hinges on bipartisan support—something Democrats have been reluctant to offer.

So, what exactly does the SAVE Act do? Why are Democrats opposing it? And how can you help ensure its passage?

What the SAVE Act Entails

Stefan Zaklin / Stringer | Getty Images

The SAVE Act is straightforward: it requires voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship before casting a ballot in federal elections. This measure responds to reports of voter fraud, including allegations of noncitizens, such as illegal immigrants, voting in past presidential elections. Acceptable forms of identification include a REAL ID, U.S. passport, military ID, birth certificate, or other specified documents.

Additionally, the bill mandates that states remove noncitizens from voter rolls and lists of eligible voters. It also establishes criminal penalties for officials who fail to comply with these new guidelines.

Democrats’ Opposition to the SAVE Act

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

Democrats have strongly criticized the SAVE Act, arguing it discriminates against women, transgender individuals, and minorities. They claim that people who have changed their names—such as women after marriage or transgender individuals—may struggle to vote if their current ID doesn’t match their birth certificate. However, the bill allows multiple forms of identification beyond birth certificates, meaning affected individuals can use updated IDs like a REAL ID or passport.

The argument that minorities are disproportionately harmed is slightly more substantiated. A recent survey showed that 93 percent of voting-age Black Americans, 94 percent of voting-age Hispanics, and 95 percent of voting-age Native Americans have valid photo IDs, compared to 97% of voting-age whites and 98 percent of voting-age Asians. However, in 2024, only about 58 percent of the voting-age population cast ballots—a trend that has been consistent for decades. There’s little evidence that Americans are prevented from voting due to a lack of ID. Instead of opposing the bill, a more constructive approach would be to assist the small percentage of Americans without IDs in obtaining proper documentation.

How You Can Make a Difference

The stakes couldn’t be higher—free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. Conservatives must rally to ensure the SAVE Act becomes law. Contact your Senators to express your support for the bill and highlight its importance in safeguarding electoral integrity. Grassroots efforts, such as sharing accurate information about the SAVE Act on social media or discussing it with friends and family, can amplify its visibility. Local advocacy groups may also offer opportunities to organize or participate in campaigns that pressure lawmakers to act. Every voice counts, and collective action could tip the scales in favor of this critical legislation.
