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.

'I don't want to change one word of it': Alan Dershowitz on why the Second Amendment MUST be preserved

Legal scholar and famed criminal defense attorney Alan Dershowitz has a message for partisans dividing America: "A plague on both your houses." He voted for Hillary Clinton. He endorsed Joe Biden. He's a man who is basically the Forrest Gump of American judicial history.

Look up a big court case over the past few decades, and you'll probably see him standing in the background. He's represented notorious clients like Mike Tyson, Patty Hearst, Harry Reems, Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, and yes, Donald Trump. It's made him a target for both the left and right.

Alan also describes himself as a "civil libertarian," and that's probably why he and Glenn Beck get along despite their opposing political views. His story is like a history lesson, spanning half a century, and it just might be the key to bridging the political divide.

On this week's podcast, Alan explained that while he's a strong defender of the Constitution, he's never been a big fan of the Second Amendment. In the past he's called it absurd and outdated, and even today, he admits that he wouldn't have ingrained it into our Constitution if he was a framer. However, with the whole Bill of Rights under attack, he's now fully in defense of our right to bear arms. Because if the Second Amendment changes, any amendment could be next.

"I'm now a supporter of the Second Amendment. I don't want to change it. I don't want to change one word of it, because I'm afraid that if I get to change the Second Amendment, other people will get to change the First Amendment, and the Fifth Amendment," Alan said. "So, I am committed to preserving the Bill of Rights, every single word, every comma, and every space between the words."

STUNNING: New Project Veritas video alleges ballot harvesting, cash-for-ballots operations in Ilhan Omar's district

Investigative reporter David Steinberg joined the radio program Monday, to explain how a new video may provide enough evidence to begin a FBI investigation into alleged illegal practices by Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar's campaign.

In the video, which was produced and released by Project Veritas, residents of Omar's community describe campaign teams that not only conduct illegal ballot harvesting practices but also pay people for their blank absentee ballots.

Steinberg told Glenn that, if these charges prove to be true, the federal government could bypass Omar's friend and protector, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. Could 2020 be the beginning of the end for Omar's political career?

'We surrendered, and now EVERYTHING is infected': Business owner pens powerful letter on COVID-19 shutdowns

Mike Fratantuono is the manager of Sunset Restaurant in Glen Burnie, Maryland. He wrote in the Washington Post's COVID-19 series about the recent, heartbreaking loss of his business, a restaurant that has been in his family for "four generations and counting."

"I know this virus is real, okay? It's real and it's awful. I'm not disputing any of that," Mike wrote. "But our national hysteria is worse. We allowed the virus to take over our economy, our small businesses, our schools, our social lives, our whole quality of life. We surrendered, and now everything is infected."

On the radio program Monday, Glenn Beck reacted to Mike's letter, which he shared in full, adding his hope that those in government are ultimately held responsible for what he called the biggest theft of the Western world.

"This is the biggest theft of, not only money, but of heritage and of hope," Glenn said. "The United States government and many of the states are responsible for this, not you. And hopefully someday soon, we'll return to some semblance of sanity, and those responsible for this theft, this rape of the Western world, will be held responsible."

HERE are the allegations Democrats are likely to make against Amy Coney Barrett

Wikimedia Commons

We did our homework over the weekend; we did the research so we can tell you what is likely coming from Senate Democrats regarding President Trump's Supreme Court Nominee Amy Coney Barrett. Based on our research and the anonymous people who have already come forward to talk about Coney Barrett's youth, these are the main shocking things you can expect Senate Democrats to seize on during the confirmation process…

A man has come forward under the banner of "#MenToo," to say that in second grade, Amy Coney Barrett and her best friend at the time, cornered him at a birthday party at Chuck-E-Cheese and "injected him with a full dose of cooties." Which, if true, would obviously be disqualifying for serving on the highest court in the land.

Then there's a woman who says when she was nine-years-old, she lived on the same street as Amy Coney Barrett. She alleges that Coney-Barrett borrowed her VHS tape of Herbie Goes Bananas and did not return it for at least six months. And then when she did finally get the tape back, the woman says Coney Barrett did not even bother to rewind it. The FBI has interviewed at least two witnesses so far who say the tape was indeed not rewound and that it was very upsetting to the owner of the tape. Again, if true, this is troubling – clearly not the kind of integrity you want to see in a Supreme Court justice.

Apparently, in their elementary school days, they liked to drink milk – and lots of it.

The same neighbor also dropped a bombshell allegation about the drinking problem of Amy Coney Barrett and her closest friends. Apparently, in their elementary school days, they liked to drink milk – and lots of it. The neighbor says she "frequently" witnessed Coney-Barrett and her friends chugging entire cartons of milk – often Whole Milk, sometimes Chocolate Milk, occasionally both at the same time through a funnel.

Unfortunately, shooting-up cooties, injurious rewinding, and potential calcium-abuse are not even the worst of it.

A third person has now come forward, another man, and this is just reprehensible, it's hard to even fathom. But he alleges that in fourth grade, when they were around ten-years-old, Amy Coney Barrett and a group of "four or five of her friends" gang-GRAPED him on the playground during recess. He alleges the group of friends snuck uneaten grapes out of the cafeteria and gang-GRAPED him repeatedly in broad daylight. In other words, and I hate to have to spell this out because it's kind of graphic, but the group led by ten-year-old Amy Coney Barrett pelted this poor defenseless boy with whole grapes. He recalls them "laughing the whole time" as they were gang-GRAPING him.

He recalls them "laughing the whole time" as they were gang-GRAPING him.

Obviously, even if just one of these allegations is half-true, no Senator with a conscience could possibly vote to confirm Coney Barrett. When there is a clear pattern of destructive childhood behavior, it always continues into adulthood. Because people do not change. Ever.

Fortunately, for the sake of the Republic, Democrats plan to subpoena Coney Barrett's childhood diary, to see what, if any, insights it may provide into her calcium habits, as well as her abuse of illicit cooties and the gang-GRAPING incident.

We will keep you posted on the latest, but for now, it looks like Democrats will find plenty in the reckless pre-teen life of Amy Coney Barrett to cast doubt on her nomination. And if not, they can always fall back on her deranged preference for letting babies be born.
