The Glenn Beck Program




Glenn Beck is seen here on the Insider Webcam, an exclusive feature available only to Glenn Beck Insiders. Learn more...

GLENN: Let me give you the story for the 9/12 tea party from the New York Times. A sea of protestors filled the west lawn of the Capitol and spilled into the National Mall on Saturday in the largest rally against President Obama since he took office. A culmination of summer‑long season of protests that began with opposition to healthcare overhaul and grew into a broader dissatisfaction with government. He went on to label the crowd angry and profane.

PAT: Evil. They're evil.

GLENN: Angry and profane, the tea parties. But the G‑20, fine.

PAT: I like the fact that they mentioned it was allowed, it was peaceful and ‑‑

GLENN: Permitted.

PAT: Permitted, that's what that was.

GLENN: Peaceful and permitted.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: But no, no we were spilling into the streets.

STU: Well, the violence, though, isn't permitted. I mean, like, yes, the gathering might be permitted. But the whole point of this, you know, look at any of the footage. I mean, you can see that there is actual violence going on and vandalism constantly.

GLENN: How about blowing up of radio station towers? Last Friday? Did anyone see that in the national news? The only reason why I know it is because I was there! Did Glenn Beck just say he did violence? Weren't radio station towers blown up in Los Angeles like three weeks ago?

PAT: Somewhere in California, yeah.

GLENN: Can you check on that I believe ELF or ALF blew up radio station towers within the last month in Los Angeles as well. Now, why is it that an actual terrorist organization, an actual terrorist organization, ELF and ALF, that have done actual damage, have blown up buildings, set things on fire, blown up radio station towers, how is it that that gets absolutely no coverage, none whatsoever? Especially when our governmental leaders are the ones saying, "And if we stop now, the Earth will die." Who's causing fear that causes people to act?

PAT: Speaker of the House just broke down and wept. What was that, last week, week before?

GLENN: Well, she had seen violence before.

PAT: Oh, she had seen violence.

PELOSI: I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw ‑‑

PAT: The language.

PELOSI: I saw this myself in the late Seventies in San Francisco.

GLENN: Yes, she did.

PELOSI: This kind of rhetoric was very frightening and it gave a climate in which violence took place.

PAT: Nevermind, okay, the language. Nevermind the actual explosive.

GLENN: It's absolutely incredible.

PAT: Unbelievable.

GLENN: Now, I was in Seattle. I was at Safeco Field. There was one person that was quoted in the newspaper the next day when I got the key to the city to Mount Vernon, which is my hometown of 30,000. By the way, the left gathered signatures of 16,000 people in a town of 31,000. Isn't that incredible?

PAT: Over half of them signed?

GLENN: Over half of them ‑‑ well, they didn't actually sign. You could go online and you could just sign. You could sign ‑‑

PAT: But it was limited only to Mount Vernon?

GLENN: No, no, you could sign from anywhere, anywhere, yeah. But there were protestors there, I believe about 60% of them were pro‑Glenn protestors. They were protesting the people who were protesting. God love you. But I read a story where it said one lady ‑‑ and they didn't find any irony in this in the Seattle Times. One lady said, you know what, Glenn Beck and mayor Bud Norris doesn't speak for me. That mayor Bud Norris, he sure doesn't speak tore me. I had to be here. That's why she drove from her home in Oregon. Yes, the mayor of Mount Vernon, Washington doesn't speak for you. You are right. You are right on that one.

STU: It would be really weird if he did.

GLENN: Jeez, for the love of Pete.

STU: We want this pothole fixed in Oregon!

GLENN: There were 40 protestors in front of Safeco Field. They got top billing. 40 protestors. Top billing.

STU: I saw pictures of ‑‑

PAT: Did you have 15 inside ‑‑

STU: I saw the photos from inside. There were thousands.

PAT: 20, 25 people?

GLENN: We had over half that. We had over half.

PAT: You had over half?

GLENN: Yeah, we had seven... thousand people, we had 7,000 people in Safeco Field that came to hear me speak and talk about the Evergreen Freedom Foundation, which is an absolutely fantastic organization. And yet, I knew it when I saw her. Who did the news talk to and interview? A woman in a red, white and blue finger hat. Okay? The Seattle, the Seattle P‑I or the ‑‑ I can't remember if the Seattle Times or P‑I, one of them, they had the big huge picture on the front page of... a lady who came dressed as the Statue of Liberty.

PAT: Oh, that's so wrong.

GLENN: There were actual business people there. There were actual, you know, regular people who came in regular clothing. In fact, about 6,997 of them were dressed normally, and they wonder, they wonder why their subscriptions are going down and no one's paying attention to them.

'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."

WATCH: This is why Eric Weinstein is FINALLY talking to Glenn Beck

Eric Weinstein, managing director of investment firm Thiel Capital and host of "The Portal" podcast, is not a conservative, but he says conservative and center-right-affiliated media are the only ones who will still allow oppositional voices.

On "The Glenn Beck Podcast" this week, Eric told Glenn that the center-left media, which "controls the official version of events for the country," once welcomed him, but that all changed about eight years ago when they started avoiding any kind of criticism by branding those who disagree with them as "alt-right, far-right, neo-Nazi, etc.," even if they are coming from the left side of the aisle. But their efforts to discredit critical opinions don't stop there. According to Eric, there is a strategy being employed to destroy our national culture and make sure Americans with opposing views do not come together.

"We're trifling with the disillusionment of our national culture. And our national culture is what animates the country. If we lose the culture, the documents will not save us," Eric said. "I have a very strongly strategic perspective, which is that you save things up for an emergency. Well, we're there now."

In the clip below, Eric explains why, after many requests over the last few years, he finally agreed to this podcast.
