The Glenn Beck Program

VOICE: The Glenn Beck program presents more truth behind America's march to socialism.

GLENN: You know what's evil, I mean seriously evil, I mean like, boy, I'm evil. Those charter schools. Man, those things are evil. And school vouchers and private schools. I'm Beelzebub. I mean, I don't -- I can't tell the difference between the devil and the principal of a private school. I really can't. Anything that takes away power from the teachers unions, takes away from accountability and the glorious state to educate the children the way Washington sees fit, it's just, it has to be destroyed. Now, George W. Bush was far from a free market guy when it came to education. No child left behind stressed accountability, which is good, but still it put the federal government's hands deeper into education, not so good. But if you're Barack Obama, before you can really turn the wheel, you'll first have to convince them that the current school system is a failure. Most people think it is anyway. From factcheck.org. Last year George W. Bush touted U.S. gains in education saying that our fourth and eighth graders achieved the highest scores on record. He bragged that African-Americans and Hispanic students posted all-time highs. Well, last week Obama said those eighth graders weren't so great at math after all. He claimed that they had fallen to ninth place in the world and he bemoaned a high school dropout rate that had tripled over three decades. What a difference a year makes. So which one is it? Is it improving or is it disastrous? The high school dropout rate hasn't tripled in the past 30 years as Obama has claimed. According to the Department of Education, it has actually only declined by a third. Oh. Eighth grade math scores haven't fallen to ninth place compared to other countries. U.S. scores have claimed to that ranking from as low as 28th place in 1995. Holy cow. Obama also has set a goal of having the highest proportion of college graduates in the world by 2020. But in terms of bachelors degrees, we're nearly there. The U.S. is only second to Norway in the percentage of adults 2 5-64 with a four-year degree and trails by just 1 percentage point. How many people are living in Norway? So you make second place by 1% sound horrible. Confuse the meaning of fallen and climbed and then confuse the meaning of tripled and fallen by a third. But you can see how he's messed up. Tripled in 30 years and fallen by a third. It has too many 3s in it. And after all, we're not very good at math, you know. It's confusing. Too bad no child left behind wasn't around when Barack was growing up. Maybe he would be able to figure out all these confusing numbers.

VOICE: That was even more overwhelming evidence that we are destined to be a bunch of socialist pigs very, very soon on the Glenn Beck program.

'This WILL bring darkness': Glenn Beck warns 'new global religion' being formed right NOW

A "one-world government" is being formed right now and it’s called the Great Reset, Glenn Beck said on the radio program Monday. And now, rebuild plans for the fire-damaged Notre Dame Cathedral hint at the formation of a global church, too.

In this clip, Glenn detailed plans for the iconic, 850-year-old church’s "woke" renovations that sound more like a 'politically correct Disneyland' complete with a "discovery trail," "emotional spaces," and 14 themed chapels.

"Notre Dame is now being built back better as a 'woke theme park' dedicated to environmentalism and social justice," Glenn explained.

"There will be several different chapels within, [for example] a chapel for social justice, and then chapel for environmental justice," he continued. "Which leads me to this point. The 'one-world government' is being formed, right now. One-world government. It is being formed and it's called The Great Reset."

Glenn went on to predict that one of the first steps in the direction of a one-world government will be a push for a global religion.

"I think we're seeing the first church now being dedicated to the new global religion — and it is social justice, environmental justice, and all this gobbledygook. We all know, it's not just wrong, it is dangerous. That's the first church, the cathedral of Notre Dame, in France, is the first global church. Mark my words. Christian, Jews, Muslims ... this global church will bring darkness unlike you've ever seen."

The Omicron COVID-19 variant: Should we ACTUALLY panic?

As the new Omicron variant of the coronavirus approaches, it seems like those in power want everyone to be terrified, Glenn Beck argued on the radio program Monday.

The chair of the World Medical Association's Council, Frank Ulrich Montgomery, is already comparing the variant to Ebola and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has declared a state of emergency, despite the doctor who announced its discovery describing the new variant's symptoms as "unusual, but mild." So, should we really be worried or not?

In this clip, Glenn and producer Stu Burguiere reviewed what we know about the Omicron variant so far and gave a few reasons why we should wait for more information before succumbing to panic.

Want to Defeat Tyranny? The Epic True Story of America's FIRST Freedom Fighters

Faced with an oppressive government that literally burned people at the stake for printing Bibles, America's original freedom fighters risked it all for the same rights our government is starting to trample now. That's not the Pilgrim story our woke schools and corporate media will tell you. It's the truth, and it sounds a lot more like today's heroes in Afghanistan than the 1619 Project's twisted portrait of America.

This Thanksgiving season, Glenn Beck and WallBuilders president Tim Barton tell the full story of who the Pilgrims really were and what we must learn from them, complete with a sneak peek at the largest privately owned collection of Pilgrim artifacts.

Glenn Beck: How to prepare YOUR family for coming electrical BLACKOUTS

Saule Omarova, President Joe Biden's nominee for comptroller of the currency, admitted she wants to fight climate change by bankrupting coal, oil, and gas companies. Alarmingly, Biden's U.S. special climate envoy, John Kerry, seemed to agree with Omarova when he said "by 2030 in the United States, we won't have coal" at the COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, earlier this month. But that could end in massive electrical blackouts and brownouts across the nation, BlazeTV host Glenn Beck warned.

Carol Roth, author of "The War On Small Business," joined "The Glenn Beck Program" to explain what experts say you can do now to prepare your family for potential coming power outages.

"It's interesting. Usually when I go out and talk to experts in areas that are not 100% core to my area of expertise and I say, 'I would like to give you credit.' Usually I get, 'OK, here's how you credit me.' But everyone is like, 'No, no. Let me tell you what happened, just don't use my name.' And this is across the country," Roth said. "This isn't just a California issue, which obviously [California] is leading the nation. But even experts out of Texas, people who are monitoring the electric grid are incredibly concerned about brownouts or blackouts now, already. So forget about 2030."

"You want to have a backup source of power," she continued. "Either a propane, diesel, or combo generator is something that you're going to want to have. Because in a state, for example like Texas, I'm told that once the state loses power, it will take a minimum of two weeks to restore plants back to operations and customers able to use grid power again. So, this isn't something that we've got nine years or whatever to be thinking about. We should be planning and preparing now."
