Adam Curry: The Great Reset & ESG will lead us INTO DEMISE

Former MTV VJ Adam Curry can give Glenn a run for his money when it comes to knowledge of The Great Reset. Now the co-host of ‘No Agenda,’ he joins Glenn on radio to discuss recent efforts in America to both stop (and push forward) ESG — a system, he says, will only lead America ‘into demise.’ Plus, for those new to the concept, Curry breaks down ESG, how it’s being used against Putin in Russia, and why it could target YOU in the near future too...

GLENN: Adam curry, a guy who I used to think was the coolest guy on television. And MTV VJ for years. And then is the guy really responsible for podcasting? I mean, he worked with Steve Jobs, to get podcasts on to the Apple i Pod at the very beginning. He is wicked, wicked smart.

Has been following things like ESG, and The Great Reset for a while.

We come Mr. Adam Curry. How are you?

ADAM: Hey, Glenn, good to see you. Ideas.

GLENN: Good to see you. We didn't meet until a couple weeks ago, and I can't believe that friends -- so we have to have mutual friends. Haven't put us together earlier.

Because we think so much alike.

ADAM: And I think as I've told you on your podcast. We think alike. We have the similar paths. We're also, I think more or less the same age.

After this wonderful visit I had with you, I want to be like you so much, I bought one of those microphones that you have. It sounded really good, on Glenn's Show. I need a little beard.

GLENN: Yeah. Just a little goatee.

You look a little like Colonel Sanders, and you're all set. I want to read something to you, Adam. And get your thoughts on it. We're working with 20 states on legislation. Anti-ESG legislation. And having the Treasuries divest themselves on places like BlackRock. That are clearly working on the interests of the everyday people.

So this is a statement from the Idaho association of commerce and industry. And I want to read this to you, and get your thoughts.

Some in the Idaho legislature are supposed to consider legislation to deal with ESG or environment, social, and governance. ESG, a risk management system is being labeled as the latest threat to individual rights.

Well, as preposterous as this sounds, folks like Glenn Beck have given legislators, a farcical conspiracy theory, from which legislation is being crafted.

While it's easy to dismiss, due to its lack of basis in reality. The problem it creates for businesses are real. Risk management for all companies.

Small and large. Private or publicly traded, have common threads in determining asset risks, from environment factors from climate change or local weather patterns.

Additional risks are present in employment and management relationships, and community acceptance of the business.

Finally, the governance of all companies are critical considerations, when it comes to risk management for investors.

Business is, by definition, based on a risk/reward system.

Legislative efforts to manage how risk inputs are evaluated are unwelcome. And foundationally dangerous to free enterprise. These people are actually using that.

The -- the Idaho association of commerce and industry, believes and defends, that if Idaho wants to retain the moniker of the least regulated state in the nation, there is no role for government to dictate how business or business their and investors will evaluate the importance, to each company. Whether it is through formal systems, labeled as ESG or otherwise.

Listen to this. The tragic reality of the new world is one where talking heads drive policy, to stir the masses by creating nonexistent problems. And then solving the problem with massive overreaches into the private sector.

Businesses cannot stand by and allow this to happen. And we will firmly defend our member's ability to run their own companies, in the way that best suits them as a private and independent entity.

ADAM: Well, first of all, congratulations, you're now officially a conspiracy theorist. This is good news. This is good news.

This is why I always call myself the crackpot. I figure that's much easier. They don't have to kill me.

Well, unfortunately -- and so much happened in such a fast amount of time, since we last saw each other. And a lot of it is coming much closer.

I think we're seeing the total capture. The capture is more or less complete. With that, I mean, if we go back, and talk specifically about what ESG is. It's great hearing about it. A lot of people are talking about it. Not sure exactly what it means. Again, it sounds for environmental social governance. And this is a -- there is a measuring standard that goes along with this. Which was created, literally by the bankers, including BlackRock. And with the separate foundation, to determine how environmentally conscious, socially conscious, and governance conscious a corporation is, and we're talking about mainly publicly listed companies.

GLENN: And hang on just a second. To give you an idea, there's no individual choice on anything. I've talked to people in the oil industry this week. And they have said, Glenn, we can't -- the leases and everything. Yeah. We need that.

We can't get a dime from the banks.

ADAM: Can't get money.

GLENN: So that's ESG. The banks are saying, no, those oil rigs --

ADAM: Not just the banks. It's much worse than that. It's the retirement funds. Pension funds. Insurance companies.

ADAM: Yeah.

And they have, for their own clients, they have certain things they can and cannot invest in.

And this ESG has become this fictitious score. And I don't have a Merrill Lynch retirement account. But I understand that people who do, are already seeing the ESG score of their portfolio, of the companies that they have in their portfolio.

GLENN: Right.

ADAM: And, you know, so we've seen a lot of this taking place, over the past, probably five years. When it started to accelerate. Environmental, that's all green new deal. And holy crap, we missed. We totally weren't paying attentional. And they passed a trillion and a half dollars, in which half is going into that kind of stuff. The social part.

GLENN: The latest bill that just passed. Yeah. The omnibus bill.

ADAM: These things are horrible. And that's all -- I'm sure the Federal Reserve is very happy. Oh, yes. We got to push some money out. Yeah, that's not going to help inflation.

But the social part, we've been watching, really the acceleration, with Black Lives Matter. You saw every corporation. Giving away tens of millions of dollars. Donating tens of millions of dollars to Black Lives Matter, Inc. Which, by the way, has been completely dissolved. There's no one around. Who runs it.

GLENN: Can't find the money.

ADAM: Where is the money? There's a lot of groups looking for money. We were all there. The money went through you. Where did you go?

That's also -- then you have the governance part. Which is equity. So do we have the right amount of black and brown people in the organization?

Do we have the right amount of female to male, to transgender, to whatever.

It all has to be equitable, and equal. And equity is really the key term.

But the social governance capture, is -- comes close to the environmental, with the war.

The war, I'll just say it, in Ukraine. First of all, covid is yesterday's news.

We're still in that -- in that head space, where we're freaked out about stuff.

And during lockdowns, et cetera. The thing that everybody could kind of glom on to, which created this social cohesion. Oh, my goodness.

We could get out of this. Was masking social distancing. And eventually, proof of vaccination. And et cetera, et cetera.

We're still kind of reeling from covid. Things are stopping.

There's no news from it. Please, pay no attention to the Pfizer documents that came out.

And we have tremendous inflation. Uncertainty in the world. War is always scary. And what have we all glommed on to? Thanks to the corporations who led the way, the huge divestiture in starting with Russian oil. But then tech companies.

Everyone just -- I mean, I'm surprised I didn't wake up this morning, and go to Google Maps, and not be able to find Russia.

You know, they canceled -- and we're all jumping on board, and this is wrong. This is fundamentally, at a human level, wrong.

GLENN: And it's wrong also, because despite what people say, that this is free market. Individuals get to choose their own way.

That is not true. That is the exact opposite.

MICHAEL: Wall Street is pushing. They're saying, you can't be in Russian stocks, for Russian assets, or commodities. You've got to get out of it.

And because of this capture, that's taking place with the large corporations, who are advertising, and telling everyone how great it is. I mean, the things that are happening.

This morning, I got an email from universal audio. They make audio equipment I use.

Well, this so horrible, what's going on.

We cut off all Russian customers. They can't even access all IP addresses. It's like, why are you doing that?

Isn't creativity crossing boundaries? Isn't that for all people of the world? I'm a Hamm, as in Hamm radio operator. There's a database online called QRZ.com. You can find all the call signs in there, and you can look stuff up. These guys, they took out all the Russian call signs overnight.

This -- this is -- this is insanity.

It is -- it is psychological escape. And we're following straight into demise.

GLENN: You know, I --

ADAM: For what is happening.

GLENN: I said earlier today, if they can do this to Vladimir Putin, who just willy-nilly throws people out of windows, and gets away with it. Has billions of dollars. And a country with a ton of nukes. If they can do this to him, what the hell do you think they'll think about doing something to you? When you disagree. I mean --

ADAM: And it's the cancellation that is the scary part, Glenn. Because it's financial canceling. And they did it to Canadian truckers.

I mean, in the omnibus bill.

I think it was $100 billion the IRS is going to receive.

GLENN: Yes.

ADAM: You know who they're not going to go after? Goldman Sachs. They're not going to go after BlackRock. They'll go after, you know, small people. Middle class -

GLENN: And probably people who have a low ESG score. Probably parents who are standing up in their -- in their school board meetings, and saying, this is wrong. Those people are going to be targeted.

ADAM: Yes, and you were talking to Michael Malice earlier. Another fine Texas resident. And, you know, he's -- he's absolutely right. With the direction, we're headed, with this announcement, well, it's just another let's go study stuff. And let's come back in six months. But the cryptocurrency, executive order.

GLENN: Biggest story of the week. I think that's the biggest story of the week.

ADAM: Yeah. Because once the central bank, digital coin comes in. And you can find online, videos of the director of the bank of international settlements, talking about this.

GLENN: Janet Yellen.

ADAM: It's open. They're very open about it. That your money will have expiration.

If they give you money, you may not be able to use it after a certain period. Literally, your dollars can be earmarked. And this can be tracked all the way through your spending habit. And when it pops somewhere, where you want to -- I can imagine, in the environmental part. Sorry, you can't buy gas today. You've surpassed your credits.

I know this sounds like -- but China is doing this.

GLENN: Russia. Russia started doing it too. Russia is now doing it.

ADAM: Well, of course, it's a globalist movement. Ultimately, the idea is to get all people enslaved underneath what they're doing.

GLENN: Yeah.

ADAM: But the way I see it, it's a perfect 2-pronged strategy. Now, you can -- you can inflate oil prices. You can -- you can make energy very expensive through legislation, executive orders, et cetera.

I truly believe that the idea -- and this is what you're going to hear our administration saying. Don't worry, we'll put 500,000 charging stations in.

Don't worry, oil won't be a problem once they buy an electric vehicle. That's what they want everybody to do. It's obvious. And they will push us in that direction.

It will be unaffordable to commute to work.

A whole section of people will have no problem, working from home.

It's the physicals versus the virtuals. Even though, you and I, by definition, are kind of virtuals. The physicals still have to go to work. They have five, 6-dollar a gallon gas.

It's going to break that system. Go home. You can't work. We'll save you some digital dollars.

GLENN: Right.

ADAM: Now, it's not tomorrow. But it's coming.

GLENN: It's coming I think sooner -- maybe longer than we would expect. But sooner than we would hope. Adam, hang on just a second. Because I want to continue the conversation about the digital currency.

Because does Congress or the people have a say in any of this? Or is it all the fed? We'll get to that in a second.

More with Adam Curry. Joseph lives in Pennsylvania. He writes about Ruff Greens. How it's affected his dog and his life. He said, my beagle is 17 years old. Sleeping like $20 a day. This is like President Miles.

STU: And miles put him to shame. He's 23 hours easy.

GLENN: He's out.

He wasn't active. I was afraid he was going to die soon. I tried Ruff Greens. I'm amazed. He's wagging his tail again. And I know he's happier. His food and Ruff Greens are gone every day. He's eating well. And he's more happy. I'm amazed at Ruff Greens. I appreciate getting my buddy back again. Thanks.

Joseph, thanks for listening. Thank you for trying Ruff Greens for your dog. And I'm so glad your dog is seeing a difference. It's pretty amazing, the difference. I mean, they eat it, like it's crack. I would say, I don't know what is in it, but I do. Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants. Everything your dog needs to be healthy.

But it's like crack to them. They love it, generally speaking. They love it. And they're more active.

They run to the bowl. Ruff Greens. RuffGreens.com/Beck. They'll give you the first bag for free, you'll pay for shipping. Make sure your dog likes it. If they do, order the next bag, when you're done with the first one. And just watch the difference in your dog. 833-Glenn-33. 833-Glenn-33. Call them today.

You know, in that executive order, that Biden put out this week, it says, we have six months to -- to decide and come up with a plan, and we'll consult everyone.

Well, it talked about all its stakeholders. Other countries. Businesses around the world. Labor unions.

But it didn't say anything about the American people, or Congress.

It -- do you know that process? Is it all through the Federal Reserve?

They get to choose?

ADAM: Well, we have to go back to the Constitution, who is really allowed, or has the power to create money. And that's certainly not a commercial bank. But that's the Federal Reserve Act changed that. That is something that we would have to go back to.

I think that what is good for people to understand.

And I came to my own understanding, when I talked to banker friends, or people in politics. Even you see it now. When they talk about raising the debt limits.

And there's -- you know, this always is a polarizing issue. Oh, my goodness.

Oh, the Republicans will shut down this. The Democrats will shut down the government. What is really going on. And they're always surprised. You can't not raise the debt limit. That's un-American. You literally hear people say that. That's un-American. Because the way our system works. The financial system is, and this is why the Federal Reserve, does create our money.

Through debt. Says, you know, we like to keep inflation at 2 percent a year. That's not 2 percent, what you're paying extra in gas. Or what you're paying for household goods. Or this Consumer Price Index they've made up or changed throughout the years. That's how much money they need to print every single year, to create, in order for the system to work. And that's why, a Toyota truck, in the '70, cost $5,000. Now it starts at $50,000. That is the result of money printing throughout the decades.

GLENN: And what's crazy. You saw this in realtime. Recently, they said in 2008, the price of gas was -- what was it? 341.

But today -- or what was the price of gas?

STU: It was 411.

GLENN: 411, yeah. And now today, in today's dollars, they say, due to inflation.

STU: That would be like 525.

GLENN: You're like, wait. That was 12 years ago. What are you talking about?

You know, it's not like 1950, to today.

ADAM: Well, and so now the gig is up. Because throughout the financial crisis of 2008, 2009, when they created a whole lot of money. Then we had a similar issue in the liquidity; i.e., banks weren't trusting each other to lend to each other.

So there are one or two weak sisters in the mix. Which is still in there. We don't know where. Now we have another trillion and a half dollars going in. They're solving these problems, kind of as we're going along.

The fix is the central bank digital currency. Because then, you don't have to create more money. You can destroy money, and you can destroy it, directly from people.

By taking off my new amounts of their bank account, after the decimal, and just forever.

GLENN: Adam curry. Great to talk to you. Hope to talk to you again soon. Thank you very much.

Adam curry. You can find his podcast. It's tremendous. Wherever you get your podcasts.

‘STUNNING’ statistics PROVE the church may be in DANGER

A recent report found that only 37 PERCENT of Christian pastors bring a ‘Biblical worldview’ with them to the pulpits. And, for Catholic priests, the numbers are even worse. Glenn breaks down these ‘STUNNING’ statistics which prove that the Christian church in America may be in BIG danger…

GLENN: By the way, there's a couple of things hear. Only half of evangelical pastors hold a Biblical worldview.

Now, this might be a little shocking for people who go to church. A study released Tuesday builds on an other report from American World View inventory 2022, which shows that 37 percent of Christian pastors bring a Biblical worldview with them, to the pulpits.

Now, a Biblical worldview is -- do you -- does every person have a purpose and a calling is this

Do you have a purpose for being here? And can God call you to something? I'm asking you, Stu.

STU: Why are you asking me, without the echo in your voice?

GLENN: Because I don't want you to feel damned, immediately.

STU: Oh, okay.

GLENN: So do you feel the purpose in calling?

STU: Sure.

GLENN: Family and value of life. Those come from God.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: Do you believe in God?

STU: This is a tough one. After the previous two, but yes.

GLENN: Do you believe in creation? I know this is weird. Creation and history?

STU: I believe in history. I just believe in --

GLENN: I believe in creation. Do you? I mean, intelligent design. I don't know how he creates.

STU: Yeah. I don't find that question to be as riveting as some do. I don't really care how he did it, honestly. But it's on him.

GLENN: It's like, oh, we got you there. So you're saying, dinosaurs aren't real?

STU: Yeah. I don't really -- I don't know all the details to it. It wasn't there. I will say, I don't know how an i Phone works exactly. But I'm glad the texts go through.

GLENN: But I don't believe in Steve Jobs. He never existed. That just, all of a sudden appeared on a beach somewhere.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Let's see. Do you believe in sin? Salvation and relationship with God?

Do you believe in behavior and relationships, the Bible, and its truth and morals?

STU: I think.

GLENN: Yeah. I think those are all pretty easy. Only 37 percent of pastors. Believe in that.

STU: Oh.

GLENN: I mean, you might want to put that on the front sign. You know what I mean?

Like, hey, come in. Try our doughnuts. And we don't really believe what you think we believe.

STU: Well, this happened to you. Right? When you were doing your church tour. Back in the day.

GLENN: Oh, back in the day. We went to every church. Every religion. Because my wife wouldn't marry me without a common religion.

And I'm like. I love God and everything. But religion, I --

STU: This is a long time ago. This was not you, at the time though.

You were not. This church tour happened, in what? I don't remember what year it was.

GLENN: '99.

STU: Wow, it was a long time ago.

GLENN: A long time ago.

STU: You were finding your way. Mainly because your wife wouldn't marry you if -- you're forced into it.

GLENN: Right. I was forced into it. And she didn't believe in premarital sex either. And I'm like, okay. Chickaboo. I said, what is it going to take? And she said, God. Here I am. I'm practically a god, look at me. No.

STU: A Greek god.

GLENN: A Greek god. She vomited. And then I went to church. So we tried everything. I mean, we -- I really liked a Jewish synagogue we went to. Except you couldn't eat a lot of good things that I liked. And I don't speak a word of Hebrew. But it was in and out on Saturday, and it was pretty good. I since learned there was more than that.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: But I went to this church. And it was. What do they call those churches? Congregational, right? The white churches on the greens.

Yeah. I think it's congregational churches. And they're non-denominational. And so I'm sitting there in the pew. And Tania and I were listening.

It's okay. It's church. And during it the sermon. The pastor said, now, you all know that I don't believe in God. But if there is a God, we should serve him.

And I'm like, hey, that doesn't make any sense at all. Okay?
(laughter)

GLENN: And that should be on the front door, someplace. Before you go and sit down, you should just know, our pastor does not believe in God. But if there is a God, maybe we should serve him.
(laughter)
You know, good safety tip there. So back in just a minute. I'm going to give you a reason on why I'm telling you this latest survey. It's crazy. Finnegan is a 12-year-old Husky Lab. And Daniel not his owner. That would be wrong.

His adult friend. He said Finnegan used to sleep all the time. We had to spike his food every day with cheese and ham, et cetera. And even then, he wouldn't eat most of his food. Sometimes for days. I was skeptical about ordering Ruff Greens. But I gave it a try. In a month or so, Finnegan was incredibly active, and he runs and plays with other dogs. He even chases rabbits and squirrels again. I wish I would have discovered this for him, long ago.

Well, get it when you can, you know. Doing the best you can, to raise a health dog. Ruff Greens can help you. It's not a dog food. It's vitamins and minerals. And all the other things that your dog needs to live a healthy life. And they love it. And you put it on there. Now, not all dogs love it, I'm sure. So they want to give you a free bag, to make sure that your dog loves it, as much as my dog Uno. And Daniel's dog Finnegan. They'll eat it, man. You just watch over them. They change. It is really great to see. It's Ruff Greens. RuffGreens.com/Beck. RuffGreens.com/Beck.

GLENN: On only 30 percent of Christian pastors believe and have a Biblical worldview. I mean, if you're not talking about sin and, you know, how to be a better Christ-like person. And how do you -- 37. What are they teaching?

STU: Those are the questions. The specific questions asked. Certainly, there are differences among denominations. And various questions.

But these are pretty basic points.

GLENN: Are these eight categories. Eight categories. Purpose and calling. Family and value of life.

God, creation and history. Faith practices. Sin, salvation, and relationship with God. Human character. And nature. Lifestyle. Behavior and relationships.

Oh, and the Bible. Truth and morals.

STU: Yeah. I know there are obviously disagreements on some of the intricate matters of faith between denominations and pastors.

GLENN: Sure. But 37 percent.

STU: The only thing I would ask, who is the defining Biblical worldview there? And I would assume --

GLENN: The bible.

STU: If you're assuming broad categories like that, that's a stunning number.

GLENN: Stunning. Stunning number.

STU: To the point of, how is it possible?

GLENN: So 57 percent of pastors leading non-denominational and independent churches, held a Biblical worldview, a nationwide study in February. Conducted in February. Nondenominational and independent churches were more likely to subscribe to a Biblical worldview than evangelical churches. Perhaps most surprisingly 48 -- 48 percent of pastors of Baptist churches, widely viewed as the most enthusiastic about embracing the Bible. Held a Biblical worldview, 48 percent.

Pastors of Southern Baptist churches by contrast were far more likely. 78 percent, to have Biblical beliefs. The traditional black Protestant churches and Catholic priests, I'm sorry. Just -- wow. I just had to read this again.

Traditional black Protestant churches and Catholic priests, were found least likely to hold a Biblical view. With the incidence of Biblical worldview, measured in the single dingles. Black churches. 9 percent of pastors and Catholic priests. 6 percent.

STU: I feel like you ask atheists, if you have a Biblical worldview. You would have higher than 9 percent.

GLENN: I think I could give it to Penn Jillette. And he would be like, you know.

STU: At 14 percent. I'm at 14 percent.

GLENN: Yeah. That's crazy. In churches with an average of 100 or fewer within attending weekly services. 41 percent of the pastors had a Biblical worldview. Larger fellowships with 100 to 250 adults fared better, with 45 percent.

However, 14 percent of pastors leading mid-sized churches, between 250 and 600 people. 14 percent.

And 15 percent of pastors with congregations of more than 600 adults. That's crazy.

STU: Yeah. That's hard to understand how that's possible. Why would you be involved in this business, right?

I hate to call it a business. It's your life's work. It's your career. Right?

GLENN: It's like. You know what it means? It's my uncle who is the head of safety at Boeing for years, and he would never fly. He would never get on an airplane. And he would be like, uncle Dave, what is that? And he's like, if you fly, you have to fly a Boeing.

STU: If they can care about it a little.

GLENN: It is my uncle, who is the head of safety at bowing for years. Okay.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: And he would never fly. He would never get on an airplane.

STU: Right.

GLENN: And you would be like, uncle Dave. I don't. What is that? And he's like, if you fly, you have to fly a Boeing. But there's no reason, logically that that thing should be able to take off and fly. I don't know if you're the best for safety, you know.

I think that's -- my uncle Dave should have been a priest maybe.

Glenn reads leftists’ CLUELESS reactions to SCOTUS decision

The far-left proved once again it’s members care very little about ‘peace.’ In fact, some reactions from leftist, blue checkmarks on Twitter show just how ANGRY they can be…especially when it comes to the Supreme Court preserving the Constitution and returning rights to the STATES. Glenn reads several of their reactions to SCOTUS' recent decision that further protects the Second Amendment...

GLENN: Boy, I just wanted to go through some of the blue checkmark responses from yesterday. Because, gee. I just -- I just don't -- I just don't know what else to say. They were so right on target. Now, that's -- that's a joke. I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it actually target. You know, like Sarah Palin actually meant it. Alicia Sultan. Or Ashia, or whatever her name is. She says, God forbid. Listen, you're listening right now to a guy who is in the Radio Hall of Fame. I am so good at what I do. I don't even need to know how to pronounce names. I don't have to. They were like, this guy is like a radio god.

Yeah, but have you heard him?
Yeah, put him in the Hall of Fame.
Anyway, she said, God forbid, someone you love gets killed by gun violence. I second that. Second Amendment fetishizing will never bring that back, or a make that loss easier to bear. Yeah. I agree with that. I mean, hang on. Let me just take the ball out of my mouth here. I have this fetish thing with the Second Amendment. It is hot. Too many people believe that unfettered access to guns will never hurt someone they love, until it happens. Okay. I don't know what your point is really here. Marion Williams says. People will die because of this. And to be very clear, now, listen to this argument.
To be very clear. They're not doing this to protect the Second Amendment. They're doing it to protect the primacy of property rights.
Well, gosh, that's a good reason to do it too, I guess. Huh. I didn't even think of the property right part. But thanks for pointing that out, Marion. Neil Cattial says, it's going to be very weird if the Supreme Court ends a constitutional right to obtain an abortion next week. Saying it should be left to the states to decide, right after it imposed a constitutional right to conceal and carry firearms. Saying, it cannot be left to the states to decide.
Neil, here's what you're missing, dude.One is actually in the Constitution. It's called the Second Amendment. That tells the federal government, and the states exactly what they can and cannot do. What government cannot do. There is no right to abortion. I -- show it to me. Show it to me. When you can show it to me, I will change my argument. That, when it's not in -- I'll talk slowly for you, Neil.
When it's not in the Constitution, then, there's this part of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It's -- it's -- just look for the number ten. Okay? And that says anything that's not specifically in the Constitution. That goes then to the states. Yeah. Look at you. You're going to read something.
Jill Flipuffock says -- says the kind of people who desperately want to carry concealed weapons in public, is based on a generalized interest in self-defense are precisely the kind of paranoid, insecure, violence, fetishizing people, who should not be able to carry a concealed weapon in public. Okay. So let me get this right.
If you want to carry one, you're the kind that shouldn't carry one. So, in other words, when -- this is right. Jill, my gosh, my whole world is changing. Thank you for this. Now I understand when Martin Luther King went in and said to the state officials, hey. I need to have a concealed carry permit. He's exactly the kind of guy, you Democrats didn't want to carry a gun.
Yes! Jill, thank you for that enlightenment. David Hogged says, you're entitled to your opinion. But not your own facts. And like your own facts, you're not entitled to your own history. That's exactly what the Supreme Court decision is. It's a reversal of 200 years of jurisprudence that will get Americans killed. David, David
Have you read a book? Come on. Do you know anything at all -- name three founders. Can you do it? Right now, think. Go. Can't do it, David. 200 years.
Our -- the only times -- the only times in our history, and you wouldn't know this. Because you bury all the left. Buries the Democratic history.
The only time that we have any kind of history, where we're taking guns away from people, is when the government is afraid of those people. When the government gets really, really racist. Okay? That's why the Indians, yeah. That's why they're living on reservations now. Because we took away their guns. Yeah. Yeah.
That's why after the Civil War. And before the Civil War, slaves could not have guns. Why?
Because they might defend themselves. And then, after they were freed, oh, my gosh, the Democrats freaked out. Those freed slaves, will have a way to protect themselves. And they got it done through all kinds of laws, kind of like what you're doing now.
Thank you, David for writing in. You're special. March for Our Lives. Blue checkmark said yesterday.
The court's decision is dangerous. And deadly. The unfairly nominated blatantly partisan justices put the Second Amendment over our lives. No. I -- I -- may I quote the Princess Bride? I do not think those words mean what you think they mean. Okay?
Second Amendment is there, to protect our lives. To protect our property. And to protect our freedom.
I just want to throw that one out. The blood of American people who die from needless gun violence will be on their corrupt hands.
Okay. Wahajit Ali (phonetic) said, let's have a bunch of black, brown, and Muslim folks carry large guns in predominantly white neighborhoods.
I know the Second Amendment advocates will say that's great and encourage it. Because American history proves otherwise. We might get gun control. But we would also get a lot of chalk outlines.(laughter)Mr. Ali, you are so funny.
See, what you fail to recognize is that all of the people that you say are racist, aren't racist.
There are racists in this country, a lot of them seem to come from the left. You know, like the socialist Klan members. Or the socialist Nazi members. You see what they have both in common?
Yeah. Democratic Party. Anyway, Mr. Alley, if someone wants to carry a gun. And they're a Muslim. I have absolutely no problem. You're brown, you're pink, you're polka dot. You have covid and you're not wearing a mask. Or you don't have covid, and you're wearing 20 masks. And you want to carry a gun. I'm totally fine with that. Now, if you get a bunch of people. And, again, I don't care what color they are. Marching down my neighborhood, with large guns. Yeah. I am going to call the police because that's unusual.
What are you doing? We're just marching with our guns. Why in my neighborhood at night?
None of your business. Does Kavanaugh live around here? See, there's a difference. There's a difference. Right-wingers can freak out about nullification or packing or whatever.
No one cares. You broke all the norms of decency, democracy, and fairness. Oh, my gosh. Oh, wait. Wait.
This is from David Atkins. He has a great solution. At the end of the day, California and New York are not going to let Wyoming and Idaho tell us how we have to live in a Mad Max gun climate hell.
Oh, my gosh. David, let's break some bread, baby. Let's come together. Yeah. All right. Let me do my best Marianne Williamson.
Yeah. Yeah. Because we can come together. What you just said is the point of the Tenth Amendment. California and New York, I don't want to live like them.
You don't want to live like us. So let's not. Let's not. However, there are ten big things. And I've heard they've added to these. But there are ten big things, that no government in the United States of America, can do. Now, you want to change that, let's change it. Because what's so crazy, is there's this thing called the amendment process. You want to change the Constitution, you don't -- what -- all norms of decency. Democracy and fairness. You don't break those.
You want to change those amendments. You can do it. All you have to do is go through the amendment process. And then if you say, everybody has to have a pig on their lap. You get the states to vote for that. Put it on the amendment. You have it. Now, probably there would be another amendment that comes later. That says, hey, the big in the lap thing is really, really, stupid, and I think America lost its mind temporarily. So we're going to scratch that one out. From here on out, no. Absolute must have a pig on your lap kind of loss. Okay?
But both of those would be done through the amendment process. That would be doing it the decent way, the fair way, and the Democratic way. But David, you are cute. When you think, you're cute. Tristan Schnell writes in, when American service members die oversees, their caskets are brought to Dover Air Force base to be displayed and mourned. No, they're not displayed. I don't know if you've noticed this. But we try not to display the dead. But when Americans die because of gun violence, their caskets should be brought to the steps of the Supreme Court. So the justices can see what they've done. Yeah.
Tristan, I like that. Why don't we take every baby that's been aborted, and put them in a bucket. I mean, we're going to need a big bucket. Because there's millions of those.
And let's dump them, on the front steps of the Supreme Court. So they can see what they've done. Wow!
I got to thank all the blue checkmarks. Because you've really turned me around.

Why the Fed’s ‘MATH PROBLEM’ may result in MORE inflation

Yes, it’s possible for our economy to suffer from extremely high inflation while certain goods, products, and services experience DEFLATION as well, Carol Roth — a financial expert and author of ‘The War On Small Business’ — tells Glenn. The Fed actually is TRYING to deflate the economy, Roth explains. But while they’re saying one thing, the Fed’s current policy shows the exact opposite. And that ‘math problem,’ Roth says, is what could cause our economy to experience even more, ‘prolonged’ inflation. It’s a ‘dire situation,’ and there seems to be ZERO leadership willing to fix it…

GLENN: Is it not possible to have super high inflation, on some products. And super low deflation. Prices that are -- that are crazy.

Because they -- nobody is buying them, in other categories. Is that possible to have both of those?

CAROL: Yeah. I think that the best analogy for that would be kind of the '70s. And something that looks for stagflation. Where the economy stagnates. And it stagnates, like you said, because all the money has been sucked up in a couple of categories. And there really is a lot to go around in other places. There's not a lot of investments being made, and what not. But we still end up having high inflation. And we are certainly, a lot of people feel like we're in that sort of stagflation, you know, arena, right now. And it can continue on the trajectory. But you have to remember in terms of deflation. I mean, that's what the Federal Reserve is trying to do. They are actively trying to deflate, you know, not just the bubbles and assets, but they're trying to deflate spending, to cool off the economy. That's why they're shutting off their balance sheets. That's why they're raising their interest rates. It's meant to cool off demand. And that's the math problem that I keep talking about. They keep saying, oh, the consumer. And businesses are going to save us from a recession. But at the same time, the policy is meant to do the exact opposite. The policy is meant to make it, so that people aren't able to spend in the same way. So those two objectives are at odds with each other. And so I do think, that we could end up in this prolonged period, like you said, where the inflation hasn't quite gotten under control. Especially since we have so many supply demand imbalances in our economy. We have a labor imbalance. We have a food imbalance. We have an energy imbalance. And we have a commodity imbalance. And that's not going to it be solved by any monetary policy. That requires real action. And we don't have leadership, that's willing to lead or frankly do anything.

GLENN: So we have -- as I see it, we're looking at a situation. Again, I'm going back. And please, correct me where my thinking is off. But I'm going back to the Great Depression. So people were afraid. They held on to their money. They spent what they had to, and what they could afford. But nothing else.

That caused the labor market to shoot out of control. To -- to about 25 percent unemployment. Because the factories were closing down. Because no one was buying anything, from the factories. Which then, in turn, made FDR say, we're going to build the Hoover damn, to give people jobs. But it was all the government money, which would have just caused more inflation, if I'm not mistaken. Had it not been for the -- and I hate to say it this way. But the saving grace of the Second World War. Right? Were we in a death spiral? I mean, the war was definitely a different kind of reset. And I think a lot of the logic that you're talking about makes sense. If consumer sentiment is really important. And it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, if people don't feel confident, they don't go out and spend. They're worried about their inflation. And being able to feed their family. And get to work. They aren't going to spend -- I think there are a couple of things that we have that are different. And it's not necessarily better for the average American. So I just want to be clear. That I'm on your side, and I'm not saying that it's better.

But because of this huge supply and demand imbalance. We have two jobs available for every person looking. The likelihood is that that probably contracts to be, you know, a better match, than having massive unemployment just because of that scenario is going on. And we also have a whole slew of Americans, who are doing -- you know, have done very well. They have been the beneficiaries of this giant wealth transfer from Main Street to Wall Street. So I think we're going to have a lot of, you know, different outcomes. You know, that inadequately, that's been driven by government policy. And that's never a good thing. Because, you know, the social unrest that comes with it. And rightfully so. Because, you know, these policies have really put the middle class. The working class. And in some cases, the lower class, at risk, to the benefit of the people on the inside. And so the numbers on average, may not show how dire the situation is. And so they'll be able to spend. And say, oh, everything is great. And the consumer is doing well, when people are really struggling. And, you know, that's going to be when we continue to just be furious. And, you know, demand something be done about that.

GLENN: Carol, thank you so much for everything that you do.
