GLENN: That's right. Our book comes out September 22nd, Arguing With Idiots. Best book we've ever done. By the way, front page of the Drudge Report? New York Times which uses opaque algorithms to rank its best seller ‑‑ let me see. Let me go to the top of this here. Conservatives are resuming their historically dominant position atop New York Times and Amazon.com best seller list, a short hiatus that coincided not coincidentally with George W. Bush's tenure in the White House. While the mainstream media raved about the new era of leftist intellectual supremacy during the liberal sentence to the best seller list, the return of conservative books on the top of those lists seems to be going unnoticed. Amazon, which unlike the New York Times, ranks books according to the number of actual copies sold shows Glenn Beck's Common Sense rounding out the top this year with Michelle Malkin's Culture of Corruption coming in a close second, Ron Paul's End of the Fed comes in at number 7. Mark Levine's Liberty and Tyranny is at number 9. Number 22 is Dick Morris and catastrophe which, blah, blah‑blah, blah‑blah, blah‑blah. So looks like some conservative books are selling. That's weird. I thought we didn't read. We don't read; you know what I'm saying? We don't know how to read. In this new book Argument With Idiots, fantastic, we will arm you with the facts, so many facts that there are 25 pages of fine print reference material at the end of the book so you never have to say, I got my fact from Glenn Beck. You'll know exactly where I got the fact. Oh, it's going to make your kids' book reports so easy to do. So when the time comes you'll be ready to say, when some idiot comes up to you and says...

PAT: Well, I see you're up to your usual fear mongering ways again today. Does it make you feel good to scare people over nothing?

GLENN: I don't even know what you're talking about.

PAT: Oh, the same thing you are always talking about, Joe. Or shall I call you Mr. McCarthy. Communists! Oh, the scary Internet shut down. Ooh, the scary end of the world stuff, right, Mr. Joe McCarthy, II? Maybe your chin could be Joe III and your chin's chin could be Joe McCarthy, IV.

GLENN: Okay. So you are telling me that you don't care about an avowed communist advising the president of the United States. You don't mind if the president takes control of the Internet?

PAT: Who wasn't a communist when they were younger? Please. Who wasn't? I mean, you are filled with idealism.

GLENN: Okay, I wasn't. I don't know anybody who was a communist.

PAT: Oh, that's right. I forgot. You are from the land of, everyone looks and thinks exactly like me. It's like the land of Weebles, big, fat, round, white people who wobble but they don't fall down.

GLENN: I don't need everybody to think like me. I just don't know anybody radical enough to be a communist in this country, but the president obviously knows several of them.

PAT: I know it's tough to think of even a penny from your mountains of cash from your greedy capitalist empire going to single poor person of color who was born into enslavement by the Bush administration and because of the Bush/Cheney policies was born without skin. It would be a terrible thing if one penny of your pile of cash went to helping that person get a skin transplant.

GLENN: Wait a minute. First of all, no one was enslaved by the Bush administration. And his policies had nothing to do with skinless people. But I'll say again, there's nothing generous about the government taking my money or anybody else's and giving it to someone else. Charity is if I freely give it to somebody else, which I do.

PAT: Oh, is that what Karl Rove and the Jews told you to say today? In your little upbeat, your little morning meeting that you do?

GLENN: This is really pointless. I mean, you don't mind communists in the government and you don't mind the Internet being shut down.

PAT: Oh, stop with the fear. President Obama's not going to take away your precious Internet nude pictures of full frontal pie from you, okay? Just relax, fatty Fat Fatso.

Glenn Beck: Here's how YOU can fix the Great Reset's housing crisis

How's the housing market looking these days? Because under Build Back Better (aka the Great Reset), investors are grabbing up homes at a record pace.

On "The Glenn Beck Radio Program," Glenn discussed a recent Redfin News report, which shows that almost one in five homes sold in the U.S. during the third quarter of 2021 was purchased by an investment firm, and many are paying tens of thousands of dollars over the asking price.

"Think of that, one in every five homes that are sold are going to a big investment firm," Glenn said. "Investors bought more than 90,000 homes, totaling more than $63 billion, representing 18% of all homes sold in the quarter. The numbers broke all records."

"The same factors have pushed more Americans to rent, which also creates opportunities for investors, because investors typically turn the homes they purchase into rentals," he continued. "And now they can charge higher rents. Rent for single-family homes surged by more than 10% in the 12 months, through September. The fastest annual rent inflation in 16 years."

"And nearly 77% purchased were bought in an all-cash transaction," Glenn added. "That's not your average person. These investment firms, like BlackRock, are going in and buying entire neighborhoods. They are the people that come in, and say, 'I'll give you $70,000 over the asking price.' ... Now, why would investment firms think they will just be able to make money paying $70,000 over the asking price? What is it that they know, that you don't know? Could they know, as the Great Reset states, that by 2030, you will own nothing and you'll like it?"

WATCH: From Russia to Waukesha: The Lying Media's Assault on Truth

On "Glenn TV" Wednesday, Glenn Beck exposes the radical plan to flip the United States from capitalism to socialism and into a lawless nation. It's an old strategy that mirrors a communist Cold War playbook. The goal now, as it was then, is this: How do they get a revolution without all that civil war stuff? It’s a five-step plan, and we're deep into several of the main steps RIGHT NOW.

Our justice system has been infiltrated by woke leftists, and something called "the progressive prosecutor movement" is methodically transforming Main Street USA into Main Street Gotham City. We can see it all over the country in places like San Francisco, with the Waukesha massacre as a terrifying glimpse into more of what's coming. And the media? They're currently running interference in one of the largest misinformation operations in history.

It’s happening at the city, state, AND federal levels. And President Trump might be one of the biggest victims of them all, a fact that even Trump critic Joe Rogan has realized on the Russia collusion hoax: “No one is being held accountable!” That ends now, as Glenn calls on Americans to push back on the lies that keep us divided in a cold civil war.

'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.
