Glenn Beck: Dumb people on television

The Glenn Beck Program




Glenn Beck is seen here on the Insider Extreme broadcast, an exclusive feature available only to Glenn Beck Insider Extreme members. More...

GLENN: So then we have Velshi, Ali Velshi from CNN and he gives this point on CNN: "Timothy McVeigh was raised a Catholic. Suppose our government leaders in New York, our state leaders step in. I mean, should we, should we go into the Catholics as well? Because Timothy McVeigh was a Catholic. Do we entertain petitions of moving Catholic churches away from the Oklahoma City bombing site? I'm sure you are thinking that sounds ridiculous." Yes, that's he's a mind reader. Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. "But ask yourself, is it ridiculous because Catholicism is familiar to you?" Let me think. No. "Or is it your argument is that what he did was different?" No. He did it exactly the same. He did exactly the same thing. Timothy McVeigh killed innocent people. Except there's more to the story. "Or is your argument that Timothy McVeigh didn't kill in the name of Allah?" No, Timothy McVeigh killed in the name of insanity. He killed in the name of oppressive government.

PAT: Had nothing to do with religion whatsoever, nothing.

GLENN: Zero.

PAT: Nothing.

GLENN: Would I have a militia that does not stand up against Timothy McVeigh and say that Timothy McVeigh is a bad guy and what he did was a horror show and won't dismiss taking money for from, you know, from the Unabomber? Would I have them build 500 feet away from Oklahoma City, would I allow them to build a giant structure? No. No, that would be insane. That would be insane. Unfortunately for Velshi, he should watch his own network because on his very own network, the morning after McVeigh's execution, was this. Quote: Timothy McVeigh was baptized in the Catholic church as a boy but had stopped practicing and recently described himself as an agnostic." So it had nothing to do with the church. "Moreover as the terrorist himself admitted, he bombed Oklahoma City federal building as, quote, a retaliatory strike, a counterattack for the cumulative raids that federal agents had participated over in the preceding years including but not limited to Waco. He did not do it in the name of the Catholic church. He did not do it in the name of a Christian god. In fact, that was Al Qaeda that did things like that. They issued a fatwa in 1998 declaring that killing Americans and their allies is the individual duty for every Muslim and they can do it in every country in which it is possible to do it in accordance to the words of almighty God." That's the fatwa. That's not Timothy McVeigh. And there's one more comment. The Rick Sanchez who I honestly don't know how the man ties his own shoes. I'm sure he has slip ones. Rick Sanchez, quite possibly the dumbest man on television, and that's saying something because there's some dumb people in television. But Rick Sanchez I think has to be the dumbest man in television. A guy who doesn't understand that a volcano can happen in a cold place like Iceland.

SANCHEZ: I was just asking Chad, how can you get a volcano in Iceland? Isn't it too when you think of a volcano, you think of, like, Hawaii and long words like that. You don't think of Iceland. You think it's too cold to have a volcano there.

GLENN: Long words like Hawaii.

SANCHEZ: It's too cold to have a volcano there.

GLENN: Too cold to have a volcano there. And besides, when you think of volcanoes, you think of long words like Hawaii.

STU: Which are shorter than Iceland.

GLENN: What a dope. This guy's the dumbest man ever on television.

PAT: I don't know how you can say that.

GLENN: You don't know?

PAT: I don't. I don't know how you

GLENN: That's the only example I have.

PAT: Well, there might be others, but

VOICE: 3:00. Thanks so much, Wolf, appreciate it. Look forward to seeing you. Good job on the Situation Room today, as I'm sure you will do.

Up next, ad lib, a tease, that's what it says right here.

GLENN: What a dope.

PAT: But I mean, you couldn't find anything else.

GLENN: No.

VOICE: Down here we had this big drop. This is about a 9 meter drop.

VOICE: Nine meter drop?

VOICE: Nine meters.

VOICE: What does that mean?

VOICE: Well, it means that the ocean waves are doing something, that we're seeing some changes. It's been going down and

VOICE: By the way, nine meters in English is?

PAT: Still nine meters, Rick, it's still nine meters.

GLENN: Still nine meters. And meters is English.

PAT: (Laughing).

GLENN: What a dope.

PAT: I love it.

GLENN: Anyway, so here's his here's his latest. "If you start going into who's giving money, you gotta go to Rome and start asking where's the money going into Rome." What? And you have to go to the Mormons and ask, what are they doing with their money?" No, I don't know if you get this, Rick. The Catholic church and no renegade part of the Catholic church is flying planes into building.

PAT: Yeah, but remember that group, that band of marauding Mormons? Remember them?

GLENN: They were really

PAT: Remember them?

GLENN: Holy cow, yeah.

PAT: Remember they continued to scream that they would do it again, too?

GLENN: Yeah.

PAT: Remember that?

GLENN: And they were like, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, no coffee! Oh, that was great!

PAT: Threaten Starbucks? Oh, my gosh.

GLENN: Well, they threatened never to walk into a Starbucks because there was really nothing well, the hot cocoa is pretty good. So this Mormon goes in there. But anyway, that's a whole different story. You are onto something, Rick. You are onto something. And when I think of Catholics and Mormons, I normally think of really... bigger words like decent.

PAT: Or Jew.

GLENN: (Laughing). Long words like that.

STU: (Laughing).

Did Biden TRADE these 3 things for CHINESE money while classified docs were missing?

At the same time President Biden's misplaced classified documents were sitting in his house, garage, and office at the Penn Biden Center, a whole lot of Chinese money was flowing around him. Is this just a coincidence, or did the Chinese get anything in return? Investigative journalist John Solomon joins to break down what was going on here ...

Here are 5 RIDICULOUS moments from the Davos summit

Glenn has been warning about the dangers of the World Economic Forum and The Great Reset, which is the WEF's goal to utilize the crises like the COVID pandemic to create a leftist Utopia. Now, these goals continue to take shape at the World Economic Forum summit in Davos. Here are five ridiculous moments from this year's summit that shed light on their ultimate vision Glenn has been warning about.

1. Ex-CNN host Brian Stelter hosts the WEF panel on "disinformation," calling for the criminalization of "hate speech" in the U.S.

The former host of Reliable Sources was fired from CNN in 2022 for raking in the network's worst ratings since 2019. CNN's CEO at the time, Chris Licht, accused Stelter of "drawing ire from conservatives" for misrepresenting the facts and propagating false narratives to demonize conservatives. Licht fired Stelter because he was a liability to CNN's attempt to "re-brand" itself as a "reliable" news source.

You would think the World Economic Forum could have found a more credible host for its "disinformation," than Brian Stelter, and it comes with little surprise Stelter's panel called for the continued censorship of conservatives.

Stelter asked his panel, "How does this discussion of disinformation relate to everything else happening today in Davos?"

Vice-President of the European Commission Vera Jourová answered "illegal hate speech" from right-wing extremists, and then called for the criminalization of hate speech in the U.S., asserting, "I think that we have a strong reason why we have this in the criminal law" within the EU.

As former Trump advisor Stephen Miller pointed out, Stelter's refusal to further challenge Jourová's call for censorship is indicative of his failed career as a journalist.

2. Al Gore warns of "rain bombs," "boiling oceans," and "xenophobia" as a result of climate change.

Gore's speech "speaks" for itself...

After asserting that we're creating an "open sewer" in the troposphere, Gore exclaimed:

That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees!

Speaking of refugees, Gore blamed the mass migrations of people on... you guessed it... climate change! Of course this leads to "xenophobia" and "fascism," so if we hate "xenophobia" and "fascism," we need to stop climate change IMMEDIATELY. Plus the rain bombs...

Does this sound reminiscent of the "Man-Bear-Pig?"

3. Siemens AG Chairman Jim Hagemann urges for 1 million people to NOT eat meat—predicting a "meatless future."

It wouldn't be a World Economic Forum summit if bugs didn't take center stage. Siemens AG Chairman Jim Hagemann said he was inspired by his 24-year-old daughter to stop eating meat to fight climate change and urged one million people to stop eating meat to balance out jet emissions—like the jets his fellow attendees used to travel to the conference?

Here's what he said:

If a billion people stop eating meat, I tell you, it has a big impact. Not only does it have a big impact on the current food system, but it will also inspire innovation of food systems."

Of course, finding "alternative sources of protein" means... you guessed it... BUGS. The EU is already cutting down on cattle farms and promoting the building of insect farms to initiate this "protein transition."

4. John Kerry calls Davos attendees a "select group" with an "almost extraterrestrial" plan to save the planet.

Kerry's opening speech at Davos shows the type of elitism the attendees believe about themselves. They are the "special ones" who can gather at a Swiss resort town to discuss how to "save the planet" and the "little people" who are too ignorant to have a say in the matter. His words speak for themselves:

When you start to think about it, it's pretty extraordinary that we — select group of human beings because of whatever touched us at some point in our lives — are able to sit in a room and come together and actually talk about saving the planet [...] I mean, it's so almost extraterrestrial to think about saving the planet [...] f you say that to most people, most people think you're just a crazy, tree-hugging, lefty liberal, you know, do-gooder, or whatever, and there's no relationship. But really, that's where we are.

Well, not everyone was amused...

Businessman and conservative Tim Acheson called Kerry’s words, "Liberal delusions of grandeur." Jordan Peterson also tweeted, "Who are you going to sacrifice to save the planet, @JohnKerry -- and do you think and how will you ensure that they have any say in the matter?"

5. Davos attendees traveled on more than 1,000 private jets to the conference.

Greenspace, an environmentalist research group, estimates the total emissions used by Davos attendees on their private jets while traveling to the conference is equivalent to "about 350,000 average cars."

Greenspace also found that 53 percent of all private jet trips were short-haul flights of less than 470 nautical miles that "could have easily been train trips." This comes amid the EU's push to ban short-distance flights and opt for train travel instead, which many continue to point out.

Closing thoughts

What once sounded like conspiracy theories are now taking shape amongst the global elites at Davos. As Glenn continues to shed light on the dangers of the World Economic Forum, here's how YOU can fight back against their goals that threaten our freedoms and democracy.

Klaus Schwab is ONE CAT away from becoming a James Bond villain

In honor of the World Economic Forum summit in Davos, we would like to resurrect this gem from Glenn's Instagram archive. If "the Great Reset" doesn't work out, Schwab should consider reaching out to the Bond franchise for a Plan-B career.

PROOF the World Economic Forum wants you eating... BUGS!

As the World Economic Forum continues to meet in Davos about building a more "sustainable" future, Glenn's warning on a seemingly outlandish sustainability goal is becoming reality: eating bugs!

In its 2023 Global Risks Report, the World Economic Forum called for the "transition to net-zero, nature-positive food" to fight "food insecurity." In other words, the WEF imagines a future with minimal meat and maximum "zero-emissions food"—like bugs—as consumers' main source of protein. This is a part of "the Great Reset," the agenda proposed by the World Economic Forum in 2020, urging leaders to take advantage of the COVID-19 crisis to restructure the "world order" to bring about a leftist Utopia.

Major news outlets like the BBC have promoted insect farms as a sustainable food source to "reduce the reliance on everyday meat eating."

So what's the big concern about eating bugs? As the video points out, many cultures throughout the world have been eating insects for centuries—many consider them a delicacy! The issue with the WEF's push for insects isn't merely the option to eat bugs. If someone wants to munch on some grasshoppers, nothing is stopping them! The major concern is the way in which the WEF wants to mandate insect consumption, and, consequentially, destroy the beef industry.

According to the same 2023 Risk Report, the WEF calls for "radical policy measures" to bring about the food transition to zero-net-emissions food, like insects. This means imposing such a burden on the dairy and cattle industries that it renders them impossible to function, paving the way for a new insect industry.

In the Netherlands, the EU's largest food exporter, the government is forcing the farmers to sell their land to the state unless they reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilizer used. However, without nitrogen fertilizer, it is nearly impossible for the farmers to produce enough food to feed the nation, not to mention turn a profit. Moreover, without nitrogen fertilizer, it will be impossible for cattle farmers to produce enough food to feed their cows. This is an impossible burden for farmers to bear, and they often capitulate and sell their land to the government, paving the way for a burgeoning insect industry. Is it any coincidence the EU is pushing for insects as a means of "food sufficiency" and combatting climate change?

If you think eating insects is a novel issue from across the pond, think again. There is a growing push for a "beef tax" in the U.S. to disincentivize beef consumption and incentivize alternative "sustainable" protein sources...like bugs. According to 2021, data, U.S. beef is a 79-billion-dollar-per-year industry, employing million across the U.S.'s 700,000 cattle farms. These stats don't even include the U.S.'s dairy industry. If the global environmentalists have their way, this major U.S. industry will be wiped out, wreaking havoc on our economy. Yet this government control over the "everyday person's" consumption is all too tantalizing.

As the World Economic Forum convenes in Davos to discuss how to achieve their "sustainable utopia," Glenn continues to advocate for the free market and the ability to choose our own consumer goods, rather than giving global elites the power to consolidate and mandate their "approved goods" for widespread consumption. Though consuming insects may seem like an outlandish idea that has no impact on our daily lives, it is a part of a larger movement to control our way of life to achieve a more sustainable future, threatening both our economy and our basic freedoms.
