Nobody will ever FORCE this new ESG app on you...RIGHT?

A new app called the “Smart Citizen Wallet” has been released in Italy and it rewards people for being environmentally friendly. But don't worry, Glenn says. It's ridiculous to think that anyone will ever be FORCED to participate in this or any other ESG system! Just like it was crazy to say the housing market would collapse in 2007, or that Donald Trump would ever be president, or that America would leave people behind in Afghanistan, or that the entire global economy would shut down, or that the government would allow Home Depot to open but not your local hardware store, or that we'd see $8/gallon gasoline, or...

GLENN: So there's a new app now, just been released in Italy. And, wow, it looks like China's social credit system, which kind of looks like the mark of the -- but what happens is, if you sign up for it, the smart citizen wallet, is going to be there. And going to -- it's -- it's going to give you points for things that you do right. And it's wonderful. If you use the app. You'll be rewarded for things like recycling.

Using like buses. Managing your energy well.

And not getting fined for any of those things.

What they're going to do is give everybody a virtuous behavioral pointedly. So you'll get a score. (?) you'll win points. You'll be able to spend on various awards, such as discounts, and free cultural activities. Oh, man.

It is going to be great. It really -- it is. Now, they did say, no one, quote obviously will be forced to participate.

Oh. Okay. All right. And, you know, I think that's -- I think we should probably trust them. Because it's ridiculous to think, in 2007 that the housing market would collapse. That's ridiculous. We would never bail out the pig banks and leave the little guy behind. The caliphate, what! That's a conspiracy.

Trump will never become president. And the military would never purge red staters out of their ranks. I mean, why would they do -- e, yeah. We're going to pull (?) out of Afghanistan. And leave people and equipment behind. Right. Right.

And you're saying that I'm going to tell you we can't define what a woman is?

You actually believe that there will come a time, where you are ostracized because you say men can't get pregnant. You're crazy. You're crazy. This is not a -- a tracking, you know, China mark of the beast.

It's not anything. You're nuts. It's likable the people who say, oh. Antifa and BLM. They're going to burn cities to the ground. And then they'll be called heroes by the media. And then they'll be bailed out of jail, by the person who becomes the next vice president. Right. Right. Oh, yeah. And our schools are going to teach CRT.

Yeah. Right. Look, believing, that these things could happen. That this is not some just innocuous kind of thing that will help people. You know, is -- is totally believable. And to not believe it. I mean, then you would have to believe like the FBI and DOJ and DHS would target parents as terrorists. You know. Or teach transgenderism. Or turn our kids against parents, beginning in kindergarten. You know. Or the FBI would abuse the FISA courts. And then if they did, you're expected to believe that there wouldn't be serious consequences? Right?

That's like believing that we'll shut down the entire economy, over the whole globe!

Oh, no one is going to tell you when to shut your business. And Americans will just take it. They'll shut their businesses down. And then if they don't, the cities will just come after them, you know. Oh, wait. Wait. Wait. What was that theory?

They're going to close down your local hardware store. But they'll open the doors of Home Depot. Because that's a safe zone. Come on. That's crazy.

Oh, yeah. And they're going to start, you know, suggesting that we round those people up, or, you know, what do we do with those kinds of people? It's like the climate deniers. Yeah. We're going to arrest them.

There's no inflation. It's transitory. Wait. You just said that there was no inflation. No. It's transitory.

Okay. Were you wrong? Oops. No. I mean. Squirrel.

ESG is a conspiracy theory. It's only for your information.

That's it. We're never going to apply this. This is so you know what you're investing in. We're never going to hold companies or states or countries hostage by it. That's crazy.

So, anyway, definitely not the mark of the beast.

(music)

VOICE: No way. Digital angel is just like your favorite slippers. Comfortable. Consistent. And like a (?) satellites can batch your or what you're doing. And why waste time (?) first and last names. When your friends can just scan can't forehead for your identity. It's digital angel.

VOICE: Digital angel.

VOICE: Warning, resistance is futile.

GLENN: And, by the way, don't worry -- because there's nothing that anybody can do about inflation. And it's not going to get out of hand. And even if it does, Joe Biden, he knew. He said, this will cost (?) we want to stand against Russia. We're going to pay a microwave price for it.

And for sure darn it, (?) we all knew what he meant by it. Every American was like, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Sure.

Eggs, according to the USDA. This week. Eggs, you know, in the fall could be a dollar a piece. Twelve dollars a dozen. We all knew that.

We explain that to us. Hey. You might be paying $8 a gallon for gasoline.

We said, damn, the Russians. Right? Am I right?

You know, inflation, where you don't have the product because we all agreed, people should get money from the government, to stay home, and not go back to work. We all voted for it. We all agreed. We knew. We knew. And they were very clear with us. You know, hey, it's going to cost us a pretty penny. We've printed too much money. We've done crazy things. Hey, let's send $58 billion over to Ukraine. You know, that's just what? $7 billion more. Than the yearly budget for Russia's Department of Defense. But let's send that over to that crooked country, and don't worry about the accounting. We'll all figure it out. Oh, and, by the way, it was 58 trillion. And then -- and then last week, I think they had a few more million to it.

And then yesterday, the president said, my gosh we need to send them another seven had million dollars. Why don't we just give them (?) another open checkbook. Just give them the country's credit card. Because we're in. I don't care if we're paying $15 a gallon for gasoline.

I'm in. And I don't have to worry, because I have an electric car. Don't pay any attention to the blackouts that are now coming this summer. But only for two-thirds of the country. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

So that's good. Jamie Dimon, by the way, he's preparing JP morning chase, the -- the country's biggest bank for what he describes as an economic hurricane.

And advised investors to do the same. Quote, you know, I said there are storm clouds. But I'm going to change that. It's a hurricane.

We're fine at the moment. Nobody knows that the hurricane is just a minor hurricane. Or a Superstorm Sandy. But I would recommend to everybody, you should brains yourself. JPMorgan (?) is bracing ourselves. And we're going to be very conservative. The only time they've used conservative. We're going to be very conservative with our balance sheet. Hmm.

So that means, you're going to stop giving loans to people, I mean, unless the Federal Reserve is interested, pour, you know, BlackRock is behind it. (?) okay. All right. Well, that's great.

He said, right now. It's kind of sunny. Things are doing fine. Are they?

Oh, I forgot. He lives in New York. So he doesn't have to pump his gas. For his black seed an (?), of course, he would never talk to somebody. I have to talk to my driver. What?

I'm -- I'm working right now. And we're funding things to replace that person in the front seat. I don't want to talk to anybody. I want a robot to do it.

You know what I mean?

Talk to my driver. That's a scream. He said, we've never seen anything like this.

We're looking at something you could be writing in the history book, fort next 50 years. (?), oh. Oh. Huh.

He also said, quantitative easing backfired, including the negative interest rates, which he called a huge mistake. Oh. Well, it's a good -- see, we've been saying that forever, since, what? 2008. We've been like, hey. Tonight go down that road. But (?) we didn't know what we were talking about. No. No. We didn't know all the systems. You know. We're just too stupid. We didn't go and get our economic degree, where we were all taught to think exactly alike. We're just a bunch of hillbilly hicks. We couldn't have seen this coming. And Jamie, don't you dare talk (?) to that man in the front seat, who might have seen that too.

You knew he was a boob. The day he picked (?), by the way, nice black seed an. It's electric, isn't it, Jamie?

Anyway, (?) it didn't make us right, and you wrong. It just made you weren't as right as you usually are. And we're still wrong! I don't know why. But we're still wrong.

He said, oil is going to hit 150 to $175 a barrel. By the way, the western economy is built on the fact that oil will never sustain over $100 a barrel. That's how our economy works.

When it's $100 a barrel, or less, everything functions.

When it's 150 a barrel, and it's sustained, it doesn't function.

When it's $175 a barrel, we've never considered what that means. Now, I know you're just a bump on the log, like me. But let me click the switch. I want to ask you, how long does your family survive, with 12-dollar dozen of eggs. And gasoline, at colors a gallon.

You know what, that would be an economic emergency -- I got an idea. What if we get into a situation, where it's an economic emergency. A food emergency. An energy emergency. A war emergency.

And then there's riots on the streets. Because we're in an election emergency. You know, what we got to do? We have to hope the president will declare an emergency.

Well, people like Jamie Dimon, who know period of time, know for a fact (?) that's a conspiracy theory. And that will never happen. Unless you actually read what the administration is actually working on. And I'm going to give that to you, in about 15 minutes. So don't go anywhere.

Back in a minute.

GLENN: There's a difference between a revival and an awakening. We are in a revival right now, but that doesn't necessarily lead to anything. Except, oh, I have to re-learn those principles. But that doesn't mean you apply them in your life. Okay?

That's an awakening. There's been two great awakenings in American history. One brought us the American Revolution. The second one brought us the Civil War and the freedom of slaves.

We have the possibility of going into a third great awakening. That's the only thing that will save us. If you don't know the difference between a revival and an awakening. Let me give you the negative print of a godly awakening. Our kids right now, they don't have any purpose. They don't have any meaning.

They look at everything, and it doesn't -- it's not real. None of it is real. It's money. It's fame.

It's -- you know, it's ever changing truths and definitions. And they have no purpose in their life. Okay?

So they're looking for that. Because man has to have purpose in his life. Man has to search for meaning.

So they're searching for meaning. And they found a group of people that actually mean something. And they're willing to die for it. And it's ISIS.

And so they're like, at least these people believe in something. They believe it. And they're willing to die for it. I'm going to stand with them. And they put that twisted understanding into action. That's the -- that is -- that's an awakening. It's just an awakening to the dark side. And that one is already happening. It has to happen on the good side. And let me speak directly to young men: Look, you are inheriting a very loud, angry, cynical and worst of all spiritually starving and malnourished society. And you are being sold a future of cheap pleasures and hollow heroes and screens with blue light that just rob you of your strength, one distracted second after another.

And in the middle of all that noise, may I just give you one piece of instruction. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, of good report or praise-worthy, seek those things.

Don't admire them. Don't nod at them. Seek them!

Hunt them. Chase them. Build your life around those things. A man who will do that. A boy. A young man who will do that, will become different. Noticeably different.

He will stop letting the culture feed him garbage. He stops applauding the trivial. He stops laughing at the obscene or cheering for the cruel.

He will become a curator of -- of real, lasting beauty in an age that has forgotten what beauty even looks like.

When other men are chasing down or holding up cynicism, this man holds up hope!

When everyone around him is chasing dopamine, he chooses discipline. When others will blame their circumstance, he'll take responsibility for his own action. When the world worships the shallow, he goes and searches for the deep!

You want to know what the secret of becoming strong is, or becoming trusted, or becoming the kind of man that your future wife, your future children, your future nation can depend on?

Here it is!

You become what you seek. If you seek trash, you become trash. If you seek virtue, you become a man of virtue. You seek excellence, and your life will begin to shine, not loudly, but steadily. Like the steel glow of a blade being forged.

That's who you'll be.

The world has a plentiful, seemingly never-ending supply of angry boys. We don't need any more addicted boys.

We don't need any more distracted boys. The world needs men. Whole men. Clear-eyed men.

Men whose souls are anchored to something higher than the algorithms, trying to own them!

Build a life worthy of admiration. Forget about the applause. Fill your mind with words that make you wiser. Fill your days with work, hard work, that makes you stronger. Fill your home with beauty that lifts every soul who walks into it.

Have your home a place where people walk in and go, man, I say so great here. I just love it here. I don't know what it is about your house. I just love it. It's the spirit that's there! Because you built it! You protect it.

Protect your integrity like a watchman on the wall. Don't lie. Don't cheat. Don't steal. And when you fail, and you will, stand back up again.

Because a man who seeks the virtuous, is not a man who never fails. He just -- he just becomes a man who refuses to stay on the ground.

If you seek things that are lovely and pure, trustworthy, praiseworthy, you'll become a kind of man this age almost never produces. A man whose very existence is a rebuke to the darkness.

That's your calling. That's why you were born.

Not to be lost. Not to play video games. Not to give up. Not to say, there's no hope. Not to end up in the trash bin of human history because you've -- you've taken so many drugs, you can't stand up straight anymore.

You're not destined to be alone.

You were destined for great things. You are destined to find an amazing woman!

Believe me. I didn't think I would ever find an amazing woman. Because I didn't think I was worth it. I didn't think I was worth it.

And until I started understanding how God works. That, yeah. I'm not worth any of the stuff that I have.

When you realize, it's all a gift. It's all a gift. And even if you work your brains out, you may not ever get all the things that you want. But you're going to have everything you need. Once you realize, carefully selecting friends makes a difference. My mother used to always say, show me your friends. I will show you your future.

It's true. Be careful who you select as friends. Watch your language. Watch what you're putting into your brain and what's coming out of your mouth. Because the brain is so amazing. It's being turned to mush. Did you know that there is a new study that just came out. I have to tell you about it next week, maybe.

New study going out. It is -- it's AI. And it has access to social media, and they have found that the AI -- the AI that is scrolling through social media all day, just to keep updated on everything that's going on in social media. It's getting brain mush. It's actually becoming dumber. It's become less effective!

It's a machine. What do you think this, flesh and blood, this thing is going to do?

We say life is meaningless. And life is the only thing that has any value. And yet, we spend all of our time, on things like social media. And that has absolutely no value.

But we think that's life.

I'm not that smart. I've just lived a long time. And I've made so many mistakes.

And I decided at one point, I'm going to stop saying, it's somebody else's fault. I'm going to start saying. Maybe -- what did I do to create that?

What did I do to attract that?

Why does this thing keep happening to me?

Why is it that I always find myself involved with these same kind of people?

Because, Glenn, dummy, it's you!

What you think, it's like -- it's like think of yourself as a -- as a beacon. It's just -- you're a beacon. Your GPS pin, that is constantly saying, here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

Except, it's transmitting more than just your location. It's -- it's transmitting what you're looking for, who you are. And it's attracting other dropped pins to you. It's saying, "I like this. I think this way. I believe these things. I am afraid of these things."

Whatever it is, you're thinking. It's constantly putting that out.

And saying, here I am. Is there anything else like that?

Anything else that can reinforce that? Anything else that can live like this?

Because that's me. Here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

That's why you keep finding yourself in exactly the same situations. Nothing will change, if nothing changes!

And the only thing that you can change, is you!

Seek the things, that have virtue.

Seek the things, that have beauty in music, in -- in art, in life, in architecture, in clothing! Whatever it is. Look for real, lasting beauty and value.

Find the things that are true! Truly true.

Universally true. Find the things that uplift. Seek those things!

And you will change your life and your world!
