GLENN: Norah O'Donnell pointed out last night on her Twitter account that Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin were together for a full hour and there was not one mention of Haiti, which I find ‑‑

Pat: Um, um, um.

Glenn: ‑‑ horrifying. Don't you?

Pat: Uh‑huh.

Glenn: It speaks volumes.

Pat: Uh‑huh.

Glenn: That we were together for a full hour ‑‑

Pat: And didn't talk Haiti at all.

Glenn: Not a peep.

Pat: Not a word about Haiti.

Glenn: Now ‑‑

Pat: Does that mean ‑‑ is that hate? Is that just hate for Haiti?

Glenn: I think it is. I mean, she can read into my heart

Pat: It's your hatred of Haiti.

Stu: It wouldn't have anything to do with an interview that was taped during a breaking news event, like, you wouldn't ‑‑ you know, it wouldn't have anything to do with that

Pat: No.

Stu: The fact that the interview was a few hours previous and then, you know, we have news people who are on live and ‑

Glenn: No. Really obviously that had nothing to do with it. It didn't come up because I was concentrating on a bigger picture with Sarah Palin on something ‑‑ this is the first time that I've sat down with an interview with Sarah Palin and I really wasn't talking about current events. I don't know if she noticed that. I think I had a current event here and a current event here, but only as it tied into the conversation so, I wasn't doing a current event kind of interview.

Stu: Well, I assume she's doing that, though, to try to did I reflect from that controversy of hers, you know and it comes down to ‑‑.

Glenn: What is her controversy?

Stu: The Norah O'Donnell controversy.

Glenn: What was the Norah O'Donnell controversy?

Stu: Apparently she was Tweeting about pedicures while Haiti was suffering.

Glenn: Why the hatred there.

Stu: She's going crazy. She's getting attacked about that.

Glenn: Wow.

Stu: You know, I kind of defend her on that, you know, because she's trying to ‑‑ was it stupid for her to go out there and start Tweeting about pedicure attention in the middle of a terrible tragedy in sure. Yes. But, I mean, you know, look. We all make mistakes and I think that she's going to obviously have to come out with a public apology very soon.

Glenn: Yeah. I don't have the blogs, but the good thing is we've just got about ‑‑ oh, I don't know ‑‑ about 8 million times the exposure than a blog does. So, you mentioning that she was Tweeting about getting a pedicure and manicure while Haiti was suffering, she must have said in that ‑‑ in those Tweets, while Tweeting ‑‑ while Haiti was ‑‑

Stu: I think, for instance ‑‑

Glenn: How many times in her tweet did she mention Haiti, besides the fact that we didn't mention Haiti?

Stu: Obviously, you know, she's in a breaking news format. She was talking about Haiti quite a bit, but a lot of people are on top ‑‑ I'm not. I mean, I think, you know, look. I think everyone has their own personal way of doing things and covering events but, you know, the fact that she was Tweeting about pedicures during this event, a lot of people are upset about it and a lot of people are attacking and, you know, I'm personally defending because, do you know what?

Glenn: I'm defending, too.

Stu: I'm defending and I know ‑‑

Glenn: Look. You need to get ‑‑ look. You've got half a million people dead. Sometimes you have to find your own source of power.

Pat: A little beauty in your universe.

Glenn: Yeah. You do. Because there's a lot of horror that is happening and Norah O'Donnell is right there, not on the front lines, not even in the middle lines, or the back lines, but she's there and she's got her ‑‑

Pat: She's talking about the lines.

Glenn: Yeah. She's talking about a lot. You can imagine the stress that she's under, having to talk about that all the time.

Pat: And if your feet don't look good as you're talking about the horrors in this world, how do you even survive?

Stu: And a lot of people are saying it's insensitive because she wasn't even talking about her own pedicure. She was talking about someone else getting a pedicure and it's like ‑‑

Pat: A lot of people are talking about it, a lot of people?

Stu: Millions ‑‑ I assume millions. We're taking a sample here, but millions of people are extremely insensitive for Norah O'Donnell about Tweeting about pedicures while Haiti suffers and that's something that, I think, people have to deal with individually.

Glenn: Well, Hey. We all ‑‑ we all have to ‑‑

Pat: We all make mistakes.

Glenn: Let's open our hearts to Norah O'Donnell and make sure she understands that, Hey, talking about manicures and pedicures while Haiti suffers, I don't assume you hate everybody in Haiti. I mean, you probably ‑‑ maybe you do. Maybe some of the people, but not all of them.

 

WATCH: United States of Venezuela: How to Prepare for the Economic Collapse

There is an economic collapse of third-world proportions on America's horizon. Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden hinted at it in statements last week: "Capitalism … has not been serving our economy as well as it should" and "We're about to … literally change the trajectory of our nation for years and possibly decades to come."

The changes the Democratic Party already has in the works are clearly destructive. You have felt it over the last year and a half, in a small supply chain inconvenience here, an incremental price rise there. You've sensed that something is very wrong. It's rumblings of the Great Reset.

Tonight on "Glenn TV," Glenn Beck heads to the chalkboard to break down how America's traditional economic strengths are being severely undermined and, in many ways, systematically torn down by the Biden administration and Democrats in Congress.

This is not "building back better"; this is a managed decline to bring America down to the rest of the world's standard of living. Glenn challenges: Don't let them convince you these are just first world problems. That's the point. America IS a wealthy nation, but we are heading quickly into a second- and third-world collapse. Glenn provides solutions for the managed decline and how you can prepare for the reset that is already in motion.

Glenn Beck: Here's how US economy decisions are giving CHINA worldwide CONTROL

On the radio program Tuesday, Glenn Beck broke down today's inflation, explaining what it is and giving proof that those at the top — politicians and world elite — continue to take advantage of our declining economy to advance their own agenda. He also revealed how a recent decision by Citibank and powerful investment management company, BlackRock, not only puts the U.S. further behind but also allows for China to gain worldwide control.

'I wanted it all out, down to the nails, screws, bolts': Trump tells Glenn Beck he REJECTED Gen. Milley's plan to leave military equipment in Afghanistan

For the first time in the history of "The Glenn Beck Program," former President Donald Trump joined Glenn to give his take on America's direction under President Joe Biden compared to his own administration. He explained why Biden's horrific Afghanistan withdrawal was "not even a little bit" like his plan, and why he thinks it was "the most embarrassing event in the history of our country."

Plus, the former president gave his opinion on China's potential takeover of Bagram Air Base, the Pakistani Prime Minister, and Gen. Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Glenn asked President Trump how similar the Biden administration's withdrawal from Afghanistan was to his administration's plan.

"Not even a little bit," Trump answered. "We had a great plan, but it was a very tenuous plan. It was based on many conditions. For instance, you can't kill American soldiers. ... You have to understand, I did want to get out. But I wanted to get out with dignity, and I wanted to take our equipment out. And I didn't want soldiers killed. ... What [Biden] did was just indefensible. He took the military out first and he left all the people. And then we became beggars to get the people out. I had a plan to get them out very quickly. But first, the Americans would go out."

Trump told Glenn that his plan included maintaining Bagram Air Base and explained why he would not have left "a single nail" behind in Afghanistan for the Taliban to seize.

"We were going to keep Bagram open," he explained. "We were never going to close that because, frankly, Bagram is more about China than it is about Afghanistan. It was practically on the other border of China. And now we've lost that. And you know who is taking it over? China is taking it over. We spend $10 billion to build that base. It's got the longest, most powerful runways in the world. And China has now got its representatives there and it looks like they'll take it over. Glenn, it's not believable what's happened. You know, they have Apache helicopters. These are really expensive weapons, and they have 28 of them. And they're brand-new. The latest model."

Glenn mentioned recent reports that Gen. Milley, America's top military officer, made "secret phone calls" to his counterpart in China while President Trump was in office.

"I learned early on that he was a dope," Trump said of Gen. Milley. "He made a statement to me — and I guarantee that's what happened to Biden — because I said, 'We're getting out of Afghanistan. We have to do it.' And I said, 'I want every nail. I want every screw. I want every bolt. I want every plane. I want every tank. I want it all out, down to the nails, screws, bolts ... I want every single thing. And he said, 'Sir, it's cheaper to leave it than it is to bring it.'

"The airplane might have cost $40 million, $50 million ... millions and millions of dollars. So, you think it's cheaper to leave it than to have 200 pilots fly over and fly all the equipment out? ... I said, you've got to be nuts. I mean, give me a tank of gas and a pilot and I just picked up a $40 million-dollar airplane. It was amazing. So, I learned early that this guy is a dope. But what he did, is he hurt our country ... and he shouldn't have been allowed to do it. And bad things should happen to him."

Glenn Beck EXPLODES after Pelosi admits to Uyghur 'GENOCIDE' in China — but adds climate is 'overriding issue'

In a shocking but underreported conversation ahead of the G7 Speakers' meeting in London last week, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi admitted that the administration knows China is committing "genocide" against the Uyghurs in the Xinjiang region, but thinks working with the regime on climate change is more important.

On the radio program, an outraged Glenn Beck dissected Pelosi's speech and broke down how — along with the Biden administration's abandonment of Americans in Afghanistan, and the Democrat decision to follow measures of medical "equity" — the far left is revealing how little they really care about human life.

Glenn played a video clip of Pelosi making the following statement:

We've always felt connected to China, but with their military aggression in the South China Sea, with their continuation of genocide with the Uyghurs in Xinjiang province there, with their violation of the cultural, linguistic, religious priority of Tibet, with their suppression of democracy in Hong Kong and other parts of China, as well – they're just getting worse in terms of suppression, and freedom of speech. So, human rights, security, economically [sic].

Having said all of that ... we have to work together on climate. Climate is an overriding issue and China is the leading emitter in the world, the U.S. too and developed world too, but we must work together.

"We have Nancy Pelosi admitting the United States of America knows that they're not only committing [genocide], they're continuing to commit it. Which means, we've known for a while," Glenn noted. "And what does she say? She goes on to say, yes, they're committing genocide against the Uyghurs, but having said that, I'm quoting, 'the overriding issue,' is working together on climate change.

"Would we have worked with Hitler on climate change? Would we have worked with Hitler on developing the bomb? Would we have worked with Hitler on developing the Autobahn? Would we have worked with Hitler on his socialized medicine? Would we have worked with Hitler on any of his national, socialist ideas?" he asked.

"The answer is no. No. When you're committing genocide, no! She said 'we have to work together on climate,' because climate is the 'overriding issue.' The overriding issue? There is no way to describe this mindset. That, yes, they are killing an entire group of people because of their ethnicity or religion. They are systematically rounding them up, using them for slave labor, and killing them, using their organs and selling them on the open market. They are nothing more than cattle. For us to recognize it and do nothing about it is bad enough. But to say, 'we recognize it, but we have bigger things to talk to them about,' is a horror show."

Glenn went on to urge Americans to "stand up together in love, peace, and harmony," or risk watching our nation become the worst plague on human life yet.
