Glenn Beck: POTUS seeking 'ass to kick'

GLENN: Okay. I want to play the audio that is so unpresidential that I've never heard a president say this. And it's odd. It just doesn't feel right. And the press is all saying, "Well, he's just trying to show passion." No. No, he's not. That is a misunderstanding on what these — who these people are and who the president is keeping at bay. Go ahead. Play the audio.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I was down there a month ago before most of these talking heads were even paying attention to the gulf. A month ago I was meeting with fishermen down there standing in the rain talking about what a potential crisis this could be.

GLENN: That's quite a statement.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: And I don't stand around talking to experts because this is a college seminar. We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answer so I know who —

GLENN: Can you stop for a second? Could you stop for a second? Could you look up — what is he talking about? Could somebody in the audience? And e mail that to — to you, Pat? Give your e mail address. Can they e mail it to you? Do you have —

PAT: Yeah, just Pat@... at —

GLENN: GlennBeck.com.

PAT: GlennBeck.com.

GLENN: Did he want to give it out. Listen, here's the thing. Somebody look this up. Why was he down there a month ago? Because a month ago was about the time that the president of BP was selling all of his shares and about the same time that Goldman Sachs sold about a half a billion dollars worth of their shares in BP. So it would be interesting to see, why was he down there a month ago? He was down there a month ago saying what a disaster this could be. What are the odds of that?

PAT: Well, but it's been over a month since this happened. It's been, what, 50 days now? So it could be a month.

GLENN: So wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Hold it just a second. I never even thought of that. It's going on two months.

PAT: Going on two months. And he was down there a month ago.

GLENN: The talking heads were down there 20 days before.

PAT: We were talking about it the first day.

GLENN: Yeah. I mean, hello. Okay, that doesn't make any sense. Forget what I just said.

PAT: Good thing I didn't give the e mail address for that.

GLENN: These aren't the droids you were looking for. What a ridiculous — I lose time now?

PAT: It's gone by so fast.

GLENN: It's gone by so fast. That's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard: I was down there 20 days after this thing started. Oh!

PAT: We talked about that. Do you remember?

GLENN: I know.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: But I thought he was referring to something that — I forgot that it was already —

PAT: Yeah, it bean a while.

GLENN: It's been more than a month. And here's what he's saying. Listen, this is on the Today Show. This is with Matt Lauer.

PAT: So he made me stop it there. All right, here it goes again.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I was down there a month ago before most of these talking heads were even paying attention to the gulf. A month ago I was meeting with fishermen down there standing in the rain talking about what a potential crisis this could be. And I don't sit around just talking to experts because this is a college seminar.

PAT: No.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers, so I know whose ass to kick.

PAT: Oh, that's — oh, that's presidential, very classy. That's classy.

GLENN: Never heard him say that. Now, here's how the media is spinning this. That he's saying that because they are saying did he have passion on anything. Well, hello. This is a new revelation to you? I mean, show me a time that he has gotten anything but angry. I haven't seen it. And believe me, don't poke the monster. Don't. Don't poke him. I don't want to see him rip off that mask of total serenity. Thank you. Notice he says the talking heads. It's not the talking heads. He's got the uber left coming out against him. It's the uber left that's coming out. Why is he pinning it on the talking heads? He's losing his support... from the left. When we come back, I want to explain, I want to explain the anarchists of the early 1900s and the connection of what is happening today. This is really important because it goes to a big meeting that is happening in Washington yesterday, today and tomorrow, and they are progressives having a big convention in Washington. One of the topics I think tomorrow, we've got to get a camera there. I've got to see this. The Beck and Bachmann problem. I love that. That's good. Maybe Michelle and I could go and attend together. This is the heat from the uber left. It all will come together for you in your head and it will all — you'll understand because you'll see it in Europe. It's already happening. I have to correct one mistake that I've made and it was a critical mistake, and when I correct it, all of a sudden the formula works.

Glenn Beck: 'I DON'T recognize my country anymore'

Glenn Beck has been warning since last summer that you would not recognize your country in a year. Well, it's not even summer yet, and he says he already doesn't recognize the country.

Do you recognize an America in which people are making more money off government unemployment benefits than they can make by working, inflation is ramping up, housing, supply and labor shortages are widespread, and the current administration gives cybercriminals from Russia a free pass after the biggest cyberattack on our nation's infrastructure to date?

On the radio program this week, Glenn pointed out that while businesses all over the nation are downsizing, one brand store is actually booming — and it says a lot about the state of the economy and what it means for our country's future.

Glenn Beck: Cyberattack on US pipeline points to 'Axis powers' of a 'digital World War III'

The largest American gas pipeline shut down on Friday due to what experts told the media was the "most dramatic cyberattack on U.S. soil to date." Investigators are looking at a group believed to be based in Russia known as "DarkSide."

It's time our leaders in the White House take national security seriously because this isn't the first time enemies of the U.S. — namely Russia and China — have used the cyber world to attack our nation and weaken our infrastructure, Glenn Beck argued on the radio program. Between Russia, China, and Iran — which President Joe Biden is now trying to make another nuclear deal with — it looks like the "Axis powers" of a "digital World War III" are lining up

"The journalists seem to care about the price of gasoline for the first time. Is it because they actually care? Or is it because they're trying not to focus on the fact that this was an attack most likely from Russia? And it isn't the first cyberattack from Russia of the year ... maybe we should be paying attention, to Vladimir Putin," Glenn began.

"And by the way, the pipeline going down, that's not the only [cyberattack] happening now," he added later. "Thirty thousand U.S. victims, small businesses and local governments, were hacked by cyber espionage units backed by the Chinese government in January of this year."

"There is an 'Axis power.' It is Russia and China. And, by the way, who is also aligned with Russia and China? Iran. Wow, this is weird," Glenn surmised. "But don't worry about that. Just leave your dog tags on another table. Let's not talk about China. Let's not talk about who actually crashed the jugular of our oil pipelines. I don't want war. But I got news for you ... this Biden administration is doing the job for our enemies."

'It's a death by a thousand cuts': Jordan Peterson on why staying silent is WORSE than facing the woke mob

Image source: Video screenshot

Canadian clinical psychologist, author, and cultural firebrand Jordan Peterson is no stranger to cancel culture. Ever since he was thrust into the culture war, he has faced one controversy after another, stirred up by the woke elites who hate him with a passion. But although they have tried to make him pay for speaking out so fearlessly against their message, he refuses to back down and he believes you should, too. He joined "The Glenn Beck Podcast" this week to explain why.

"There is a growth of the reluctant hero in all stories ... so many people think that they don't have what it takes, that they're not the hero," Glenn said to Peterson. "How do you get people to recognize and then have the courage to stand? You've taken a beating ... why is it worth it and how do you get there?"

"I think it's worth it because I believe the alternative is worse ... to stay silent when you have something to say," Peterson replied. "You don't know what it is within you that requires your voice, right, because you feel like 'I have something to say.' Where does that come from exactly, that feeling that you have something to say?

"Maybe you're disgruntled at work and you're choking on your own bile because the situation is not just in your estimation," he continued. "You're dying to say something, but you won't. Well, you'll die if you don't say it. Maybe it's a death by a thousand cuts. I don't like deferred punishment. I'd rather take it now and keep the future clean, which is why I encourage people to have the fights now, not to hide things in the fog for later. They grow and metastasize. It's better to confront what you need to confront when it's small and you have some possibility of victory."

Bank of America warns of HYPERINFLATION 'at the very LEAST'

Top officials at the Federal Reserve are doing what they can to sugar coat what's ahead for our economy, telling Americans we may hit a "transitory" period of inflation that will settle by 2022. But Bank of America is saying something different. The bank's latest earnings call commentary warned "at the very least" transitory hyperinflation is ahead.

Watch the video clip below to hear Glenn Beck explain what this means for prices and for our economy.
