GLENN: Stu, have I ever met James Cameron before?

STU: You know, I don't think so. I went back to look to see if you had done an interview with him because we did do we had a couple of, like, before anyone knew that you were a hate mongering evil traitor to the country, you know, we had some people from Hollywood on over at Headline News when you had that show and I was thinking maybe he was on at some point, but I don't think so. I mean, you don't remember ever meeting him, do you? Because

GLENN: I don't I think I would remember being what did he say? A, quote, A hole to the director of Titanic.

STU: Well, he didn't say well, he called you an F'ing A hole in a press conference.

GLENN: He said I'm an F'ing A hole, I met him, he called me the Antichrist. Man. As a joke?

STU: You did a monologue on him and you joked about how he was running for the how some people are saying he's running for the Antichrist because he made a movie about he made some controversial Jesus movie which you did a four minute segment on in 2007 and this guy's apparently still obsessing about it. But I mean, it wasn't you didn't even really talk about him much because I went back and looked at the transcript because I kind of remembered the story loosely.

GLENN: I can't even remember the story.

STU: Basically you were just making the point of it seems like you can kind of come out and challenge the tenets of Christianity all the time but other religions that God forbid you did any you write a cartoon about Mohammed and there's huge protests and everyone thinks, you know, you are the worst person in the world. So that was just, it was a very basic segment. Apparently this has been

GLENN: The documentary, the Lost Tomb of Jesus which cast doubt on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and makes the okay, I'm reading the story here. It makes the case the ancient tomb of the ten ossuaries belong to Jesus' family. I remember that vaguely.

STU: And you did an interview with William Donahue about it.

GLENN: Yeah, that's right.

STU: So this is

GLENN: I'm an F'ing A hole for disagreeing with his documentary.

STU: This guy's been making billions of dollars and apparently he's been stewing about a four minute segment on Headline News three years ago.

GLENN: Listen to this. After blasting Beck, Cameron surrounded by journalists inside the West Hollywood Hills mansion seemed to reconsider, you know what, I think he may or may not be an A hole. Well, thank you for that. But I think he's certainly dangerous and I'd love to have a dialogue with him.

STU: Oh, that sounds exciting.

GLENN: That sounds exciting.

STU: I would like to be can you be sworn at in person?

GLENN: I know.

STU: Wouldn't that be fantastic?

GLENN: What makes Beck dangerous, the Hollywood reporter asked? He's dangerous because his ideas are poisonous. I couldn't believe it when he was on CNN. I know, neither could I. I thought, what happened to CNN? Who is this guy? Who is this madman? And, of course, he wound up at Fox News, which is where he belongs, I guess.

PAT: Since when are ideas poison? It's an idea. I mean

STU: What specific idea? It's very interesting.

PAT: I know, it is.

GLENN: Did you hear what Cokie Roberts said about me yesterday?

PAT: I did.

GLENN: Cokie Roberts said that I call people heretics. I do?

PAT: I don't think I've ever heard that.

STU: Anyone who ever disagrees with you is a heretic.

GLENN: I don't know that I've ever called anybody a heretic but I mean, I don't remember the meeting of me and the most powerful director of all time, either. So

PAT: I will say this, though, and this is just me, Cokie, but I think anybody who names their daughter Cokie might be a heretic.

GLENN: Okay. So

STU: That's Pat Gray.

GLENN: That's Pat Gray.

PAT: That's just me.

GLENN: And she said, I call people heretics and because of that, I'm not only dangerous, I'm a terrorist and a traitor to the country I profess to love.

PAT: Yeah.

STU: Is that a tad over the top, Cokie? Is it a little?

GLENN: I'm a traitor, I'm a traitor to the country that I love. So James Cameron comes out and says I have poisonous ideas. Since when have ideas in this country been poisonous? Cokie Roberts comes out and says I'm a traitor to the country I profess to love and I'm a terrorist.

PAT: Jeez. That's amazing.

STU: Unbelievable.

PAT: I mean just amazing.

STU: Who is Cokie Roberts? Why do we know who she is?

PAT: ABC reporter.

GLENN: She was on ABC for a long time. Her father was a big she's been in Washington. I think her father was maybe a senator or something.

PAT: Maybe.

GLENN: Her father was somebody. But she was on ABC. She's now and this is going to you are going to find this hard to believe. She's now doing work for NPR.

STU: There's a shocker.

GLENN: So she's now

PAT: I liked Fox, Fox's spokesperson responded

GLENN: Oh, did they?

PAT: Yeah, they responded.

GLENN: Thank you.

PAT: This way: Isn't Cokie best known for lying to her viewers?

STU: (Laughing).

PAT: Which was a reference to a '94 incident where she spoke in front of a green screen pretending to be at the capitol.

STU: You know what's weird, like I don't feel the need to call her a terrorist over that, though.

PAT: No, I don't, either.

STU: It's weird. I don't think we've ever called have we ever I mean, maybe we have in joking, we called James Cameron the Antichrist apparently but I don't like, we're the ones that are supposed she's yelling at us for condemning other people. That's her argument is we're bad because we're condemning other people and in the same sentence she's calling us a terrorist traitor.

PAT: Yeah, that's what I wanted to bring up because she talks about your name calling all the time, that's all you do.

GLENN: So she called wait. Didn't she call me a terrorist traitor?

PAT: Yeah, yeah. And you know what? I'm so sick of that. If you call somebody a socialist or a Marxist and they are

GLENN: They are, they're saying it themselves!

PAT: Yeah. And you call a garbage man a garbage man, that's not name calling. He is a garbage man.

STU: Right, it's another philosophy. Like, calling us a capitalist isn't name calling.

PAT: That's not name calling.

STU: But we are.

PAT: Yeah.

STU: I am a capitalist.

PAT: It's a description.

GLENN: I am dangerous I'm going back to James Cameron. I'm dangerous but here's what he said about global warming deniers: I want to call those deniers out into the street at high noon and shoot it out.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: Excuse me? I'm dangerous? I mean, I'm sorry. Maybe that's just movie speak but, gosh, that doesn't sound good.

STU: And when have we ever had the benefit of someone saying maybe it's movie speak. Never occurs. Every time, when you say the word "Slaughter" as in the slaughter rule, people think you are trying to murder people.

GLENN: I want you to know this, this plays into what I'm going to share with you coming up in a few minutes. The reason why I'm talking about this is not because it's, you know, James Cameron. I could care less. This plays in, you will understand what they are trying to get you to do, coming up.


 

Pew report breaks down COVID-19 impact by congressional district — Dems won't like the results

A new Pew Research Center report shows the death toll in the United States from COVID-19 is "heavily concentrated" in Democratic congressional districts.

According to the analysis, more than half of all COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. occurred in just 44 (approximately 10 percent of) congressional districts, and 41 of those 44 hardest-hit districts are represented by Democrats, while only three are represented by Republicans.

"A new Pew Research Center analysis of data on official reports of COVID-19 deaths, collected by the John Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering, finds that, as of last week, nearly a quarter of all the deaths in the United States attributed to the coronavirus have been in just 12 congressional districts – all located in New York City and represented by Democrats in Congress. Of the more than 92,000 Americans who had died of COVID-19 as of May 20 (the date that the data in this analysis was collected), nearly 75,000 were in Democratic congressional districts," Pew reported.

Filling in for Glenn Beck on the radio program this week, Pat Gray and Stu Burguiere argued that, while the coronavirus should never have been made into a partisan issue, the study certainly makes a strong statement in favor of GOP leadership.

Trump was right: CDC now predicts coronavirus death rate 'under one percent'

Image source: BlazeTV video

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) once predicted the coronavirus death rate would be between 4 and 5 percent, but they've just come out with a new report and those predictions have been adjusted significantly.

According to the CDC's latest data, the fatality rate among Americans showing COVID-19 symptoms is 0.4 percent. And an estimated 35 percent who are infected by the virus will never have any symptoms. Therefore, the CDC is now estimating COVID-19 kills less than 0.3 percent of people infected.

Filling in for Glenn Beck on the radio program this week, Pat Gray and Stu Burguiere recalled when the mainstream media went into overdrive, hammering President Donald Trump for predicting the final COVID-19 death rate would be "under one percent."

Looks like the president was right all along.

CHECKMATE: Michigan barber defies 'vindictive' Gov. Whitmer’s shutdown — AGAIN

Image source: BlazeTV video

Michigan barber Karl Manke isn't a troublemaker. He's a law-abiding citizen who did everything possible to financially survive during the COVID-19 lockdown. pandemic. Eventually, he had no other option: he had to reopen his business in defiance of Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's stay-at-home orders.

In an interview on the "Glenn Beck Radio Program," Manke, 77, told Glenn, "I'm not backing down" despite Whitmer's seemingly vindictive attempts to shut down his business.

Shortly after reopening, Manke was ticketed for violating Whitmer's stay-at-home order and charged with a misdemeanor. When he still refused to close his doors, the governor's office went a step further and suspended his barber license.

"It's kind of a vindictive thing," said Manke. "I've become a worm in her brain ... and she is going full force, illegally, when legislatures told her that she was out of place and this was not her assignment, she decided to take it anyway."

On Thursday, the Shiawassee County Circuit Judge refused to issue a preliminary injunction against Manke. Read more on this update here.

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.
