Glenn Beck: Antarctic ice...expanding?

April 20, 2009

The Glenn Beck Program

VOICE: The Glenn Beck program presents Spotlight on Science.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: We'll restore science to its rightful place.

VOICE: A series dedicated to President Obama's passion for everything science.

GLENN: That's right, you've heard it a million times, the Arctic sea is melting. All the extra water is going to raise sea levels 20 feet, putting city after city underwater. They said it this weekend. This weekend with President Obama, the islands are going to disappear. Panic, everyone! Polar bears, where are they going to vacation? It's all because of you, especially if you're a hate monger in Boston. You remember this from Barack Obama?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: As we speak, cars in Boston and factories in Beijing are melting the ice caps in the Arctic, shrinking coastlines in the Atlantic and bringing drought to farms from Kansas to Kenya.

GLENN: Yeah. If we don't do something to stop the human automobile atrocities, the melting in the Arctic sea ice, I mean, all those fancy vacations that you've been taking in Bangladesh, they're history, let me tell you that right now. The crowd in Berlin, they cheered. But apparently the crowd back home didn't, at least not as much as they used to. Rasmussen poll shows a drastic decline in people who believe that global warming and things like the Arctic sea ice melting are man's fault. The decline started as soon as Obama was the nominee. It was nearly half of Americans believing that it was manmade. Now it is 1/3 of Americans that believe it is manmade. But that's not going to stop the new regulations. Global cap and trade is coming. But could it be for those people who have decided, well, no, wait a minute; I don't think I believe in that, could it be that they just read the news and that's what's happening? Like this story from the Australian, quote: Antarctic ice is growing, not melting away. Ice is expanding in much of Antarctica, contrary to the widespread public belief that global warming is melting the Continental icecap. The results of ice core drilling and sea ice monitoring indicate there is no large scale melting of ice over most of Antarctica. Australian and Arctic division glaciology, the head there Ian Allison said sea ice losses in Western Antarctica over the past 30 years have been more than offset by increases in just one sector of East Antarctica. Sea ice conditions have remained stable in Antarctica generally, said Dr. Allison. "But Glenn, it's the west sea ice that's melting. You are talking about the east." Yeah, yeah, I know, I know, but as the good scientist said and who can dispute a scientist unless they say something contrary to Al Gore the gains in the east are four times the size of the losses in the west. It makes up for it. Things are stable. "Yeah, but what fun is stable?" I mean, how are we ever going to get cap and trade with reports like stable?

And finally I just have to point out that we are some pretty crafty polluters. I mean, we are able to make our pollution drift only to the relatively small west side of Antarctica instead of the whole thing. It's almost like the ocean temperatures or the winds have something to do with it. It's weird. Strikes me as odd that the only spot where a few chunks have fallen off which, by the way, Allison said is not unusual, is caused by global warming. But the ice is increasing everywhere else in Antarctica. Too bad. The polar bears live there. Oh, I forgot, what am I doing? I'm not a scientist. I'm just one of those flat Earth hating red staters clinging to my Bible and my gun!

Alan Dershowitz: 'It's clearly UNCONSTITUTIONAL' to impeach Trump after leaving office

As the Senate prepares for former President Trump's second impeachment trial, many are asking whether it's constitutional to try a president after leaving office. Alan Dershowitz, lawyer and host of the of "The Dershow," joined Glenn Beck on the radio program to talk about the legal battles Trump still faces.

Dershowitz said he believes the Senate doesn't have the authority to convict Trump, now that he's a private citizen again, and thus can't use impeachment to bar him from running for office again.

"The Constitution says the purpose of impeachment is to remove somebody. He [Trump] is out of office. There's nothing left to do.
It doesn't say you can impeach him to disqualify him for the future. It says, if you remove him you can then add disqualification, but you can't just impeach somebody to disqualify them," Dershowitz said.

"The Senate can't try ordinary citizens. So once you're an ordinary citizen, you get tried only in the courts, not in the Senate. So it's clearly unconstitutional," he added.

Dershowitz, who served on Trump's legal team during the first impeachment trial, also discussed whether he thinks Trump is legally (or even just ethically) responsible for the Capitol riot earlier this month, and whether those engaging in violence could be considered "domestic terrorists."

SHOCKING POLL: Majority of Americans think 'other Americans' are greatest risk to US

A new, shocking CBS News poll shows that the majority of Americans believe they're facing a new enemy: other Americans.

More than two-thirds of poll respondents said they believe democracy in the U.S. is "threatened," and 54% said "other people in America" are the "biggest threat to the American way of life," rather than economic factors, viruses, natural disasters, or foreign actors.

Will it be possible to unite our nation with statistics like that? On "The Glenn Beck Radio Program," Glenn and Stu discussed the poll numbers and what they mean for our future.

'The cult of Trump': As Biden era begins, calls grow louder to 'deprogram' Trump supporters

Countless leaders on the left are now arguing that removing President Donald Trump from office won't be enough — they're now calling for the president's "cult-like" supporters to be "deprogrammed." And it's not just fringe politicians.

During an appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher" last week, former NBC anchor Katie Couric said, "The question is, how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump."

Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi questioned whether the nation needs "a 9/11-type commission" to determine whether President Trump was colluding with Russian President Vladimir Putin "the day that the insurgents invaded our Capitol." Clinton also made sure to include her favorite "deplorables" in her unsubstantiated conspiracy theory:

"But we now know that not just [Trump] but his enablers, his accomplices, his cult members, have the same disregard for democracy," Clinton said to Pelosi.

Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and New York Times Magazine's Nikole Hannah-Jones agreed that there is a need for "millions of Americans, almost all white, almost all Republicans" to be deprogrammed and punished, during an MSNBC interview last week.

Now, a story from the Washington Post is also preaching that narrative and even added that we need more restrictions for conservatives on social media and in the broadcast industry.

"So now we have to be deprogrammed? We've heard this over and over and over and over again, for months," said Glenn Beck on the radio program Tuesday. He read through the shocking details of the Washington Post op-ed and discussed the extraordinary dangers of the latest anti-conservative movement in America.

'We are the Alamo, we will stand': As calls for censorship get louder, Glenn Beck urges Americans to stand together

As calls for censorship and restrictions against conservative voices get louder, Glenn Beck said he feels an "awesome responsibility" to speak, not the words he'd personally like to say, but those he believes the Lord would want him to share.

"It's an awesome responsibility, and one that I am not worthy of," Glenn said. "I want to say ... what He wants me to say. And I have to listen very carefully, because I feel the same way you do. But that will get us nowhere."

Glenn said it's time for Americans who are awake — not woke — to come together, no matter which side of the political aisle you're on, and stand with the truth.

"We are the Alamo, we will stand. But we desperately, desperately need you," Glenn said. "We need the people who are awake — not woke — awake. You may disagree with us. We are your allies, not your enemies. And if you will not stand with us in our hour of need, there will be no one left to stand with you in your hour of need. We must all come together, anyone who is awake."
