The Glenn Beck Program

 



Hello America,

I’ve been telling you for months that we are facing the most critical election of our lifetime. I truly believe that America will be drastically changed by the choice we all make today in the voting booth. We can either get four more years of big government progressivism (and don’t forget he doesn’t have to worry about re-election this time), or we can get someone in office who might just start to turn things around.

So much has changed in the past four years. When I look back at everything that has happened and how my life and our country has changed…well, the one constant has been that we have always been together. In Washington, DC at the Lincoln Memorial. In Israel next to the Western Wall. In Dallas, TX just a few months ago, at Cowboys Stadium. You’ve been with me in more states than I can count, on three different networks and literally on the other side of the world. I hope you’ll join me, and the entire team at TheBlaze, on this historic night.

But I really want to tell you about what is going to set us apart from everyone else, and that’s our journalists, commentators, and analysts on all the platforms of TheBlaze. Tonight, you’re going to see why we created this gigantic multi-platform experience that encompasses web, radio, and television.

Anyone who has followed our election coverage over the past couple of years knows we like to do things a bit…different. And this year will be no exception.

We’re going to have most of the Real News team here in Dallas, providing expert analysis of the biggest races across the country. Andrew Wilkow, S.E. Cupp, Scott Baker, and a team of journalists will be back in New York at TheBlaze Newsroom updating us on any breaking news. And we’ll have reporters at the campaign headquarters in Chicago and Boston, as well as Washington, DC giving us the latest from the Obama and Romney camps.

If you’re not a subscriber to TheBlaze TV, make sure to start your fourteen day free trial so you can watch all the coverage.

Meanwhile, TheBlaze.com will be modifying their homepage to make it easier for you to get results and interact with our team of writers, editors and producers. All night long, they will have the latest results and a constantly updating electoral map giving you the latest information on who is ahead in the race. They’ll also be running a live chat right on the homepage where you can join in the conversation with the editors as you watch our television coverage. It’s a unique split-screen experience you won’t get anywhere else.

Bookmark TheBlaze.com and keep checking in with us all night for the latest on the election results.

As you can see, we’ve got your expert analysis covered. Now for the entertainment portion of the evening…

As many of you know, Pat and I have been on a bit of a food fast. We’ve both given up sweets for the past forty days, and Pat has gone the extra mile and even given up meat. So what better WAY to celebrate (or mourn) this critical election than with an ice cream sundae bar and a giant meat station? Yes, TheBlaze will be the ONLY election coverage with a giant table full of steaks and burgers.

We’ll have comedian Jeff Allen joining us on set, Raj giving us the latest updates from social media, Stu analyzing the numbers as they come in – and so much more.

We are a new network but not one without heart, passion, and truth. Tonight, as you decide which network to watch, please give us a chance. Let us earn your trust and honor the commitment that you’ve made in supporting us. I promise you won’t be disappointed. It will truly be a night unlike anything you have ever seen on television.

Tune in tonight and watch the network you’re building with TheBlaze.

Laus Deo,

Glenn

        

        

    







    
    




    
        
    



    




    
        
    






    


            
                
                



    

    
    



                

            
                
                



    

    
    



                

            
                
                



    

    
    



                

    

    

    

    
    

            
                
                



    

                            
                            
                            

    
        'They've taken away the symbol of the American flag': Restaurant owner speaks out after being FINED for flying flags on July 4
    


                






	Terry Trobiani owns Gianelli's Drive Thru in Prairie Grove, Illinois, where he put up a row of American flags for the Fourth of July. But the city claimed he was displaying two of them improperly and issued him a $100 ticket for each flag.


	Terry joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Tuesday to explain what he believes really happened. He told Glenn that, according to city ordinance, the American flag is considered "ornamental" and should therefore have been permitted on a federal holiday. But the city has now classified the flag as a "sign."


	"Apparently, the village of Prairie Grove has classified the American flag as a sign and they've taken away the symbol of the American flag," Terry said. "So, as a sign, it falls under their temporary sign ordinance, which prohibits any flying, or any positioning of signs on your property — and now this includes the American flag. [...] The only way I could fly the American flag on my property is if I put it on a permanent 20 to 30-foot flagpole, which they have to permit."


	Terry went on to explain how the city is now demanding an apology for his actions, and all after more than a year of small-business crushing COVID restrictions and government mandates.


	"COVID was tough," Terry stated. "You know, we're in the restaurant business. COVID was tough on us. We succeeded. We made it through. We cut a lot of things, but we never cut an employee. We paid all our employees. I didn't take a paycheck for a year just to keep our employees on, because it was that important to me to keep things going. And, you know, you fight for a year, and you beat a pandemic, and then you have this little municipality with five trustees and a president, who just have no respect for small businesses. And right now, what I see is they have no respect for the republic and the United States ... I think it's terrible. The direction that government, at all levels, have taken us to this point, it's despicable."

        North Korean's URGENT warning: THIS is why freedom of speech is so important
    


                






	The Biden administration is now doing everything it can to censor what it has decided is COVID-19 "misinformation." But Glenn Beck isn't confident that the silencing of voices will stop there.


	Yeonmi Park grew up in North Korea, where there is no freedom of speech, and she joined Glenn to warn that America must not let this freedom go.
"Whenever authoritarianism rises, the first thing they go after is freedom of speech," she said.

        Critical race theory: The revolution of constant whining

Most self-proclaimed Marxists know very little about Marxism. Some of them have all the buzzwords memorized. They talk about the exploits of labor. They talk about the slavery of capitalist society and the alienation caused by capital. They talk about the evils of power and domination.
But they don't actually believe what they say. Or else they wouldn't be such violent hypocrites. And we're not being dramatic when we say "violent."
For them, Marxism is a political tool that they use to degrade and annoy their political enemies.
They don't actually care about the working class.
Another important thing to remember about Marxists is that they talk about how they want to defend the working class, but they don't actually understand the working class. They definitely don't realize that the working class is composed mostly of so many of the people they hate. Because, here's the thing, they don't actually care about the working class. Or the middle class. They wouldn't have the slightest clue how to actually work, not the way we do. For them, work involves ranting about how work and labor are evil.
Ironically, if their communist utopia actually arrived, they would be the first ones against the wall. Because they have nothing to offer except dissent. They have no practical use and no real connection to reality.
Again ironically, they are the ultimate proof of the success of capitalism. The fact that they can freely call for its demise, in tweets that they send from their capitalistic iPhones, is proof that capitalism affords them tremendous luxuries.
Their specialty is complaining. They are fanatics of a religion that is endlessly cynical.
They sneer at Christianity for promising Heaven in exchange for good deeds on earth — which is a terrible description of Christianity, but it's what they actually believe — and at the same time they criticize Christianity for promising a utopia, they give their unconditional devotion to a religion that promises a utopia.
They are fanatics of a religion that is endlessly cynical.
They think capitalism has turned us into machines. Which is a bad interpretation of Marx's concept of the General Intellect, the idea that humans are the ones who create machines, so humans, not God, are the creators.
They think that the only way to achieve the perfect society is by radically changing and even destroying the current society. It's what they mean when they say things about the "status quo" and "hegemony" and the "established order." They believe that the system is broken and the way to fix it is to destroy, destroy, destroy.
Critical race theory actually takes it a step farther. It tells us that the racist system can never be changed. That racism is the original sin that white people can never overcome. Of course, critical race theorists suggest "alternative institutions," but these "alternative institutions" are basically the same as the ones we have now, only less effective and actually racist.
Marx's violent revolution never happened. Or at least it never succeeded. Marx's followers have had to take a different approach. And now, we are living through the Revolution of Constant Whining.

        Will we EVER see justice in the FBI, Trump, Russia investigation?
    


                






	Americans are losing faith in our justice system and the idea that legal consequences are applied equally — even to powerful elites in office.


	Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) joined Glenn Beck on the radio program to detail what he believes will come next with the Durham investigation, which hopefully will provide answers to the Obama FBI's alleged attempts to sabotage former President Donald Trump and his campaign years ago. 
Rep. Nunes and Glenn assert that we know Trump did NOT collude with Russia, and that several members of the FBI possibly committed huge abuses of power. So, when will we see justice?
