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.

 

Americans are fighting back, DEFYING 'tyrannical' government orders during COVID-19 shutdown

Time after time, Americans have taken to the streets to defend our constitutional rights, whether it was our livelihood at stake -- or our lives. But, what was the point of all the civil rights movements that came before, if we're about to let the government take our rights away now?

On his Wednesday night special, Glenn Beck argued that Americans are tired of having our rights trampled by "tyrannical" leaders from state and local governments who are ignoring our unalienable rights during this pandemic.

"Our nanny state has gone too far. The men and women in office -- the ones closest to our communities, our towns, our cities -- are now taking advantage of our fear," Glenn said. "Like our brothers and sisters of the past, we need to start making the decisions that will put our destiny, and our children's destiny, back into our hands."

It took less than two months of the coronavirus tyranny to make America unrecognizable, but some Americans are fighting back, risking losing their jobs and businesses or even jail time, as they battle to take back our civil rights.

Here are just a few of their stories:

After New Jersey's Atilis Gym reopened in defiance of the governor's executive order, the Department of Health shut them down for "posing a threat to the public health." Co-owner Ian Smith says somebody sabotaged the gym's toilets with enire rolls of paper to create the public health "threat."

Oregon Salon owner, Lindsey Graham, was fined $14 thousand for reopening. She said she was visited by numerous government organizations, including Child Protective Services, in what she believes are bullying tactics straight from the governor's office.

77-year-old Michigan barber, Karl Manke, refused to close his shop even when facing arrest. "I couldn't go another 30 days without an income," he said. But when local police refused to arrest him, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's (D) office suspending his business license instead.

Port of Seattle police officer Greg Anderson was suspended after he spoke out against enforcing what he called "tyrannical orders" imposed amid coronavirus lockdowns.

Kentucky mother-of-seven, Mary Sabbatino, found herself under investigation for alleged child abuse after breaking social distancing rules at a bank. After a social worker from child protective services determined there was no sign of abuse, he still sought to investigate why the Sabbatino's are homeschooling, and how they can give "adequate attention to that many children."

Dallas salon owner Shelley Luther was sentenced to seven days in jail after she defied the state-mandated stay-at-home orders to reopen her business.

WATCH: Glenn Beck Special: Battling COVID-19 tyrants is the NEW civil rights movement

It took less than two months of the coronavirus tyranny to make America unrecognizable. Leaders from state and local governments across the U.S. have flattened the curve of some of our most basic constitutional rights, but some Americans are fighting back — and risking jail time or losing their businesses.

On Wednesday night's GBTV special, Glenn Beck argued that we're witnessing the birth of a new civil rights movement — and it's time to build a coalition of common sense to keep America as we know it free.

BOMBSHELL: Here's what newly released audiotapes expose about Biden-Ukraine quid pro quo

On the radio program Thursday, Glenn Beck sat down with chief researcher Jason Buttrill to go over two bombshell developments that have recently come to light regarding former Vice President Joe Biden's role in the 2016 dismissal of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.

"Wow! Two huge stories dropped within about 24 hours of each other," Jason began. He went on to explain that a court ruling in Ukraine has just prompted an "actual criminal investigation against Joe Biden in Ukraine."

This stunning development coincided with the release of leaked phone conversations, which took place in late 2015 and early 2016, allegedly among then-Vice President Biden, Secretary of State John Kerry, and Ukraine's former President Petro Poroshenko.

One of the audiotapes seems to confirm allegations of a quid pro quo between Biden and Poroshenko, with the later admitting that he asked Shokin to resign despite having no evidence of him "doing anything wrong" in exchange for a $1 billion loan guarantee.

"Poroshenko said, 'despite the fact that we didn't have any corruption charges on [Shokin], and we don't have any information about him doing something wrong, I asked him to resign,'" Jason explained. "But none of the Western media is pointing this out."

TIMELINE: What Susan Rice's declassified email reveals about Trump's 'Obamagate' claims

A recently declassified email, written by former National Security Adviser Susan Rice and sent herself on the day of President Donald Trump's inauguration, reveals the players involved in the origins of the Trump-Russia probe and "unmasking" of then-incoming National Security Adviser, Gen. Michael Flynn.

Rice's email details a meeting in the Oval Office on Jan 5, 2017, which included herself, former FBI Director James Comey, former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, former Vice President Joe Biden, and former President Barack Obama. Acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard Grenell, fully declassified the email recently amid President Trump's repeated references to "Obamagate" and claims that Obama "used his last weeks in office to target incoming officials and sabotage the new administration."

On Glenn Beck's Wednesday night special, Glenn broke down the details of Rice's email and discussed what they reveal about the Obama administration officials involved in the Russia investigation's origins.
