‘Wearable technology’ is BEYOND DANGEROUS to YOUR free will

Wearable technology is not longer a prediction for our future. It’s HERE, and a recent clip Glenn plays from a presentation done by the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this month proves that world elite already are planning how to use it. This kind of technology and artificial intelligence can monitor your BRAINWAVES, tracking your productivity and effectively diminishing YOUR free will. Glenn explains just how dangerous this new type of technology truly is…

GLENN: All right. Let me tell you something that is going on in the stock market right now. The stock market Buzzfeed, Inc. is going through the roof right now.

There's a feeding frenzy, for their stock. People are -- are very excited. Because Buzzfeed has said, they're going to use open AI, ChatGPT, any of these things.

And they'll -- they'll start having computers, write stories. So you -- you -- poeple -- so think of the money.

Oh, isn't that great?

This is -- this is following Microsoft investing $10 billion in open AI, which is the major ChatGPT. And Buzzfeed has announced open AI is open for business at Buzzfeed. I will tell you, that every show that we do, everything that we do, is made by hand.

It is -- we will not sell out. I'm talking about the Glenn Beck Program. We will not sell out and have our shows written by machines.

We will -- we will do our own research, and -- and dig deep.

We -- I'm not a technophobe. I believe -- you know, Google has been a good thing in research.

It's been a good thing. So I have no problem using devices, but I will not replace people with machines. AI.

Now, that's going to put anybody who does that, it's going to put them in the exact opposite position, as Buzzfeed. You'll have a harder time making money because you refuse to lose our humanity.

But I will go a step further. I am not ready for what they are now calling a brain transparency. I want to play something to you, that is hopefully eye-opening. This is a clip -- and we have the full 30-minute seminar on this.

This is just the first clip, from the World Economic Forum. It -- there was a speech on technology. And it features a video, that we'll have in here. This video is like a little cartoon.

And it shows how technology can monitor your brain waves. And make you more productive at work.

This is shocking enough. But what is said after, is even more so.

Here's a clip, again, from the World Economic Forum.

Listen.

VOICE: First off a video. It's going to make you see the future. And understand a wonderful future, where we can use brain waves to fight crime. Be more productive. And find love.

GLENN: Wonderful.

VOICE: You're in the zone. Even you can't believe how productive you've been.

Your memo is finished.

Your inbox is under control. And you're feeling sharper than you have in a decade.

Sensing your joy, your playlist shifts to your favorite song. Sending chills up your spines, the music begins to play. You glance at the program, running in the background, on your computer screen.

And notice a now familiar site, that appears whenever you're overloaded with pleasure. Your theta brainwave activity, decreasing in the temporal regions of your brain.

You mentally move the cursor to the left.
And scroll through your brain data, over the past few hours.

You can see your stress levels rising, as the deadline to finish your memo approached.

Causing a peak in your beta brain wave activity. Right before an alert popped up. Telling you to take a brain break.

What's that unusual change in your brain activity. When you're asleep.

It started earlier in the month. You send a text message to your doctor, with the mental swipe of your cursor. Could you take a quick look of my brain data? Anything to worry about?

Your mind starts to warned to the new colleague on your team, whom you know you shouldn't be daydreaming about. Given the policy against intraoffice romance. But you can't help fantasizing just a little. But then you start to notice, your boss notices your amorous feelings, when she checks your brain activity and shift your attention back to the present.

You breathe a sigh of relief, when the email she sends you later that day, congratulates you on your brain metrics from the past quarter, which earned you another performance bonus.

You head home jamming to the music, with your HEP issue playing something earbuds still in.

When you arrive at work the next day, a somber cloud, has fallen over the office. Along with emails, text messages, and GPS location data. The government has subpoenaed employee's brain wave data, from the past year.

They have compelling evidence, that one of your coworkers has committed massive wire fraud. Now they're looking for his coconspirators. You discover they are looking for synchronized brain activity. Between your coworker and the people he has been working with.

While you know you're innocent to any crime, you have been secretly working with him, on a new startup venture. Shaking, you remove your earbuds.

GLENN: Stop for a second, please. Stop.

How many feel comfortable with this? This -- remember, it was introduced as, you know, your future.

And showing you how exciting things can happen, in your future.

You'll be able to increase your productivity. We'll be able to fight crime.

You'll be able to find love. Who is comfortable with just this?

Now, let me just play the beginning of one of the eggheads at the World Economic Forum, talking about this.

Go ahead.
(music)

GLENN: You have the rest?

VOICE: What do you think? Is it a future you're ready for?

You may be surprised to learn, that it's a future that has been already arrived. Everything in that video, that you just saw, is based on technology, that is already here today.

Artificial intelligence has enabled advances, in decoding brain activity, in ways that we never before thought possible. You've heard a lot about AI, over the past few years.

Here at Davos, it's been the talk of the hour. But I want to talk about it in a different way. Which is, the ability to decode brain wave activity. After all, what you think, what you feel, it's all just data.

Data that in large patterns can be decoded using artificial intelligence. Consider this, the average person thinks thousands of thoughts each day. As a thought takes form, like a math calculation. You're happy. You're tired. You're hungry.

You're elated. Neurons are firing in your brain. Emitting tiny electrical discharges. As a particular thought takes form. Hundreds of thousands of neurons fire in characteristic patterns, that can be decoded with HEP electro and AI-powered devices.

In fact, what you're seeing here is my brain activity, while I'm wearing a simple device, like the one on the right.

We're not talking about implanted devices of the future. I'm talking about wearable devices that are like Fitbits for your brain.

It used to be that there was very little we could do tell from EEG activity. But already, using consumer wearable devices, these are our headbands. Or hats that have sensors that can pick up your brain wave activity, Earbuds, headphones. Tiny tattoos that you can wear between your ear. We can pick up emotional states, like are you happy or sad or angry?
We can pick up and decode faces that you're seeing in your mind. Simple shapes, numbers, your pin number to your bank account.

It's not just your brain activity here, that we can pick up. We can also pick up your brain activity in different places.

Like as your neurons fire from your brain down your arm. And send signals to your hand to tell you how to type, move. All of that could be decoded through electromyography.

That's what you're seeing here, a device now, in the form of simple wearable watch, that can pick up that activity. And one of the pivotal acquisitions of the field. Meta acquired this company, control labs in 2019, because major tech companies are investing and helping to make these devices universally applicable in the way in which we interact with the rest of our technology. In fact, the coming future.

GLENN: Okay. Stop.

We are -- we are there, gang. Everything, Stu. You remember -- you remember the -- the crazy days back in the '90s.

When I would talk about this stuff. And it was really, truly science fiction. It was science fiction. It was a prediction from people like Ray Kurzweil, of where we were headed in the very near future. And when you said very near future, it seemed like it was a long way away. You know, it was 2020, 2030, this would begin to happen.

And I've been -- I've been telling you, since 2016, I -- I started to get very, very specific.

That our jobs are going to be in danger. Our jobs are going to be in danger, because things like AI will be able to take jobs away from people.

This is why when I've ever spoken of universal basic income, I have not dismissed it out of hand as un-American.

Universal basic income, as it's been debated, has -- is wrong.

And I do not think it's an answer for anything. I think it will only cause more problems. However, what I have said is, we have to discuss something. Because what's going to happen is these tech companies, like Microsoft, Google, and others, they will start to create things that take the jobs.

You won't be able to have a job. And, you know, if you think that creative jobs. Well, I have a creative job.

We will take your creative job. It can already write and perform vocally and with instruments, any style of music, and you have no idea you're listening to an algorithm.

No idea. Humans are not involved. Try ChatGPT. Ask it anything.

And you can't tell that you're not in an interaction really, with a machine.

It is so far beyond a Google search. These things are going to impact everything. For instance, Microsoft is now working on releasing -- and I guess it's an app. Or a system.

That you say, I want to develop a website. And you tell the AI. Andly it develop it for you.

Already, images can be produced using AI.

You describe what you want to see, and it might in ten seconds, come up with hundred different images.

That could be photo realistic. And 80 of them, might suck.

Ten of them might be eh. But five of them might be really good. This is only going to get better and better and better and better.

So now, what do we do?

Are you comfortable with your brain waves being taken?

Remember, they just told you, that they can get your pin code. Your pin code.

For him it's not a bunch of useless data. They can get down into everything.

Now, if you think that -- if you think this is, you know, something on the horizon, that's not going to happen. You're sadly mistaken.

Because it is already being put to use, in factories. And I'll explain that to you, come up in 60 seconds.
(music)

JEFFY: American Financing. NMLS 182334. Www.NMLSConsumerAccess.org.
(music)

GLENN: Okay. Mortgage rates are coming down, just a bit. They're in the fives.

Which is a lot lower than, you know, what the -- the usual credit card interest rate is. The average credit card interest rate now is 20 percent. It can be as high as 26 percent.

How much interest are you paying every month?

Well, I will tell you, that the people who are looking at cashout refinances of their -- their mortgage, are paying off that debt. At -- you know, 20 percent. They're getting rid of that 20 percent interest rate. And they're refinancing, if you will. At about 20 percent. I'm sorry.

At about 5 percent. That's going to save you a ton of money. The average person is saving almost $700 a month, if they call American Financing. And do business with American Financing.

They will find a way to help you. And even if that's just getting your credit score up, they are in the business to try to find a way to help you.

And if you start today, you can delay up to two mortgage payments, giving you additional savings.

So American Financing can help get that monkey off their back. 800-906-2440.

800-906-2440. Or go to AmericanFinancing.net. Ten-second station ID.
(music)

GLENN: Okay. If you remember, and I don't know how many people do. There was a story out of China, where factories are starting to force their workers to wear hats.

And these hats have this wearable technology in it, that this woman was just speaking about.

Now, this story came out two, maybe three years ago. And it monitors the brain waves. And they can see who is paying attention. And who is not.

It also can give them like a little electric shot, if they happen to not be paying attention.

And it's a little freaky. Because the corporations know everything about these people.

And remember, the corporations are in a public/private partnership with the government.

When she says to this group, at Davos, are you ready for -- you know, wearable technology? To scan brain waves?

The crowd is kind of mixed. You know, you hear kind of, no, not really.

But she's talking to the elites. They're not going to be the ones in the office. They're going to be the ones monitoring everybody's brain waves.

This is why this is so dangerous, to be discussed only with the elites.

They are deciding right now, what kind of technology they will be using to keep us in line. And to keep us productive.

And you're going to have a hard time getting a job, if you don't want this technology.

These are the things that are right here, right now.

Glenn Beck’s LIVE Reaction to Donald Trump’s Second Inaugural Address

President Donald Trump’s second inaugural address let the world know that America is back. Glenn Beck, Stu Burguiere, and fellow BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey give their live reactions to the speech. Trump acknowledged God, proclaimed the day as “Liberation Day” for many Americans, and used “revolution language,” or as Trump put it, “a revolution of common sense.” Trump announced that the US Government will only recognize 2 genders and that he will open America up for drilling, rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, restore the name of Mt. McKinley, stop China from controlling the Panama Canal, and end wars. But Glenn also reveals the one thing Trump said that “disturbed” him because he’s never heard a president say it in his lifetime.

Will Donald Trump Usher In a New Golden Era of America?

On his final full broadcast of the Biden era, Glenn takes a look at what’s coming to an end when Trump takes office on Monday, January 20th, and what’s hopefully coming next. This is the end of an era of lies and destruction, of pure madness and unquestioning obedience to the so-called “experts.” It’s the beginning of the end of diversity being twisted into a weapon. Trump has a long road ahead of him, but he has the opportunity to renew America and start a new Golden Era.

STU: Three days, Glenn! Three days!

GLENN: Until the fundamental transformation of America.

STU: Yeah. No more of this guy. No more of her. No more of them.

GLENN: You know, but I think it's a lot bigger than that.

I was thinking about this today when I was driving in. That this administration exiting. Is not just another exit of a president. It's not the same. And it -- it wasn't like this in 16.

Although, we hoped it would be.

But it is this time.

Because the people and the feeling in the country, even among Democrats, is different now. We're about to turn the page. And enter a new era, or a new chapter.

We're really standing on the edge.

Monday is a moment far larger than politics. But it's only the beginning. It's not just the end of a presidency. Not the changing of the guard. It is truly the end of an era. An era marked by madness, by confusion. By division. Distortion. Deafening cacophony of chaos.

All of that has drowned out reason and common sense. And it -- you know, it didn't -- it didn't start yesterday.

As much as the left tried to make this all about words.

By twisting meaning. Redefining words.

Or using words, quite honestly, to use their words. In mis, dis, or malinformation.

This era is not going to be remembered by the words, but by the actions of those who spoke, the millions of those meaningless words. We can see right now the destruction of our economy. Our security.

The -- and really, really clear terms, in the homes and the hearts of California. That it is the action of people that matter more than simple words.

By their -- by their fruits, ye shall know them. The fruit of this tree is rotted, and people now are beginning to see that.

Now, like I said, this didn't begin four years ago. It turned it up to volume number ten, but this has been brewing for decades. It has been in our institutions, far longer than any of us realized.

Metastasizing in our culture, our institutions, and our hearts. And hardening our hearts.

It is an era that we leave on Monday, that put truth itself on trial. Can you even define what truth is, anymore?

We -- we went into this place, that was so absurd, we couldn't define something as fundamental and self-evident as, can you tell me what a woman is?

Historians are going to look back on this last era that we're now leaving, as pure madness.

But it's also a time, when it took everything in people, to question the powerful mob.

To speak the truth, that you believe. It was a -- it was a risk that at first, far too many people wouldn't do. Because they were afraid of being shouted down.

Cancelled.

Or much, much worse.

Common decency. The once unspoken bond that united us, was thrown out the window.

It became not only unfashionable. But absolutely unrecognizable.

And everybody was at each other's throats. Common sense. Our old friend, just dismissed. Exiled seemingly to the fringes of our society.

As if it were dangerous now. Or just wildly outdated. And we know that happen. We didn't know that yesterday. But we know that today.

And I mean, literally yesterday. How many words changed. How many things. Concepts. Huge truths that we knew.

We wake up one day, and it was completely being dismissed.

And we would be like, where did this come from?

We're leaving a time of breathtaking hypocrisy. Where those who deny corruption themselves take bribes from hostile nations, where the righteous call for unity, while sowing division.

This era, racism has been repackaged and sown back to us under the guise of antiracism.

Hatred, we're told me, is perfectly fine, as long as it's aimed at the right people.

And those right people, may be the wrong people, tomorrow!

Faith in God, has been replaced by faith in climate models. Sexuality. Identity.

In this last era they can't be we're now getting ready to leave. All of those religions had their own dog has. Their high priests. Their rituals. And above all, their lack of forgiveness.

Meaning, that they were anti-Christ. Teachings.

But somehow or another. Many of our churches embraced them, as the message of Christ.

There cannot be Christ in any message, that doesn't include forgiveness.

But this isn't where the story ends. We thought before this election, this might be where our story ends.

But here is the really unbelievable news.

God stepped in.

And if you don't recognize that, there is no hope for us.

God stepped in and did something none of us could do.

First of all, he saved the president's life twice. And if you think that was a Secret Service. You're nuts!

God saved him, twice!

God changed him.

And suddenly our society is waking up. This guy, who is not our savior, won!

And people started flocking to him, and willing to take bold stands and say, you know what, all this crap. It's wrong!

So this is not the end of an era, alone. It's the beginning of the end of that era. The end of unreasonable hatred of others. Not because they look different.

Simply because they voted differently.

They didn't think differently.

You know, there was nothing about actual diversity.

It was all about voting!

It's the end of unquestioning obedience to the so-called media. And experts, who demand that we followed them, without question, into the slaughterhouse. Hoping, I guess.

Hoping against hope, many of us, that if we would just comply, our turn on the chopping block would never come.

It's the end of the era of, my body, my choice.

In everything -- in everything else, other than killing your baby. You can kill your baby, my body my choice.

Well, it's not your body that's being killed. It's the baby's body.

Makes no sense. But, boy, oh, boy.

Not with masks. Not with vaccines.

Not with the basic right to just use your legs and leave your home!

It's the end of an era where we have to ask ourself, whose side is this government on?

Who is actually running this thing?

What is the actual plan that our leaders have? How -- how is this helping the average American?

Who is actually the president?

That ends on Monday. It's the beginning of the end. There's a lot of work to do.

But it's the beginning of the end of diversity, twisted into a weapon. Where diversity of thought, values, and spirit, were just disregarded. Replaced by a narrow, suffocating dogma, that demanded conformity in all ways. Even if you were conforming yesterday, and then somehow or another, through the ether, the mob decided what was true yesterday. Is no longer true today.

The mob would get you!

On anything you disagreed with. It's the end of the era where dissent was met not with debate. But with just now, meaningless labels. Racist.

Fascist. Bigot.

I think it's really important, that all of us recognize, this is not about Democrats. There are a lot of Democrats that actually woke up. It's not about Democrats.

It's not about Republicans. I think both of them stink, quite honestly.

I do, and that's the message of this new administration. And you see it with diversity of people, that are actually in this administration. We don't agree in lockstep on everything.

Far from it! The establishment in the Democrats and the Republicans do. But this isn't about Democrat, Republicans, liberals, conservative, independent.

This is truly about something much, much deeper that begins Monday.

It's older and far more grander than a political party. It is truly about the rebirth or the rediscovering of what it truly means to be free!

Monday marks the rebirth of something absolutely extraordinary!

Things we used to find self-evident. The freedoms guaranteed just in our First Amendment. The freedom to question our government.

They work for us!

We don't work for them!

The freedom to speak our mind! Even the most unpleasant and disruptive things. You are allowed to say! The freedom to worship. To live out your beliefs. To be who you are, without demanding that others speak, affirm, or even accept your truth.

You know, the one thing that we have forgotten in this last era, that I hope we are remembering. Is that this nation weren't built by people who all walked in lockstep.

They didn't agree on everything.

In fact, far from it. It was built by people who often vehemently disagreed on the path forward.

But they shared the common commitment to respecting each other's rights, and fulfilling their own responsibilities.

It was built on the idea, that disagreement, when handled with humility and respect, makes us stronger, not weaker!

Diversity of thought is important.

Diversity of skin color doesn't matter.

And so as we say farewell to an era of absolute chaos, it's really important that we don't say goodbye in anger or bitterness. And that is hard!

We can't alienate our neighbors, our assume the worst of those who see the world differently, if we agree on the rebirth of the Bill of Rights, and each responsibility that is tied to those rights.

Monday, I hope we recognize, that this is an end of an era this weekend. And Monday is an invitation to rebuild. To restore. To renew.

An era, a golden era. An era that is dawning. Just in front of all of us.

And it belongs to all of us. Not just those who won an election. Or share my view.

Or your view.

It's an era that can only succeed if we remember the lessons of the past. And commit to something better.

To restore hope. Not just in our institutions. But in each other.

Renew our faith. Not just in God.

Though, that's vital. But also in the idea that people, flawed, though they are, can be capable of incredible good. Seek restoration, not just of our economy and our government, but of our hearts, of our communities, of our families. Our shared understanding of what it means to be human.

And to be free! This weekend, I want you to bid farewell to all of the chaos. It's the beginning of the end.

There will be more chaos as we go. But as we lay it down, leave it behind.

Walk forward.

Leave your fear behind.

Walk in encourage. Not in hatred. But in love.

Because the truth is, this country has faced darker days than these.

I didn't think we would make it here, gang!

But every time this country seems to find the light just at the end. And we found it. But it's just flickering, still so fragile in mighty gusts of wind. But what will happen is not because of a president or Congress or a court. It will all happen because of you! So don't wait for anybody else. Lead the way.

Be the one who chooses faith over fear. Courage over conformity. Love over hatred.

Let's be the ones who our words are meaningless. But our actions speaks volumes. The that one shows the world, that freedom actually works. Not because it's easy. But because it is right!

Biden's Farewell Address, Rewritten by Glenn Beck

President Biden’s farewell address was filled with all sorts of irony. Perhaps most shocking was his warning that an “oligarchy” of power-hungry elites “literally threatens our entire democracy.” Surely, he isn’t talking about the progressive elites, right?! Glenn decided to rewrite Biden’s farewell address to better reflect the reality of his administration’s legacy. No joke!

GLENN: All right. So Joe Biden. And I know this is all going to come as new news for you, Stu.

Because I'm not going to lie. It came to me as new news this morning.

When I read it in the show prep.

This is not something, I would even care about. From this president.

But I think it's important just to notice how he's leaving office.

And there's a couple of things. One, have you ever seen a president who nobody gives a flying crap about more than this one?

STU: I don't think so. I mean, have I?

No. Has it ever occurred in American history is more the question.

GLENN: Right. It could be like John Tyler, or Taylor.

I don't even know.

STU: Tyler. That was the one I didn't even know existed. John Taylor, I think was the basis for Duran Duran. John Tyler, former president.

GLENN: Okay. Right. So former -- so I care about what's happening in this administration, just a little bit more than John Tyler!

STU: Or John Taylor. Right.

GLENN: Or John Taylor. Either.

I mean, I care a little bit more about John Taylor. He had some great songs.

STU: He had some great songs.

GLENN: So, I mean, I just don't care.

The only reason I do care. Is because what is he doing today, to destroy our country?

STU: Yeah. We've been doing this series of Biden's parting shots on our show.

Stu Does America, by the way. Blaze TV.

And there's a lot.

You could say, he's not doing anything. Because you think he's incoherent. And falling asleep on the job.

GLENN: No. He's not doing anything.

STU: It very well may be true. It also doesn't matter. He's doing a lot to the country here, as he walks out the door.

It does not seem that anyone seems to care.

GLENN: There was another 500 billion-dollar forgiveness of loans, yesterday.

STU: Not that much.

GLENN: How much was it?

STU: He did 150,000 people. And then another 200,000 people. I believe over the past few days.

GLENN: A lot of money and a lot of people.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: And this one he's saying, because the university scammed them.

Oh, Lord.

Okay and -- yes?

STU: I think that's just -- amazing. You go through a legal proceeding. That's how they get their money back.

They don't get the money back. We don't have to take that on as a country. And again, none of this is legal. None of this is constitutional.

Most of this will be overturned after he's out of office. Most of these poor people who believe they no longer have these loans, will wind up having these loans.

GLENN: Right, but they're still going. They're still going. They're filing all kinds of suits in court, and you're like, that's not going to stand in court. They're not going to pursue that.

It's just -- okay. Well, then stop it. Spend the time to stop it. That's what he's doing. He's just lighting little brushfires everywhere.

Thank goodness, Donald Trump is not California.

He'll put them out quickly, I think.

Now, the -- Biden gave a speech, and I -- I just rewrote it.

I'm sorry. I rewrote the speech.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: Because I said everything that he said, but I added a little bit of the truth.

Okay?

So let me give you what he said, last night.

First, do we have the -- the Hail to the Chief?

Or something that makes it sound official? Because it was very official.

It was in the White House. I'm not kidding.

He was sitting on a pillow last night.

Yeah. No. Real one. And just go ahead. So he's -- and now a message from the president of the United States.

My fellow Americans, folks, I'm serious. This is it.

This is my last address as your president.

No joke!

I've been in public service. For 50 years, now.

Maybe more.

I've seen a lot in my time.

But I've got to tell you, still believe in America.

Well, there's some things that we need to talk about. Things that really worry me.

I'm not kidding.

This is serious stuff.

First of all, the oligarchy thing.

Yeah. It's bad!

Folks, we've got billionaires and corporations running the shows right now, and it's dangerous. Come on. We can't have people, billionaires, who think they can run everything. Like George Soros.

Well, no.

Probably, he deserves a medal, but other people like that, that vote differently than the way we want them to vote.

That's just got to stop. Got to stop. Okay?

He's a good guy mostly. And big tech. Don't even get me started, folks.

Don't. Don't.

It's like my dad used to say. When I was growing up in Scranton, you know, just an average scrappy kid, hanging out with black people and minorities mainly.

You know, my dad used to say to me, don't trust big tech. He was way ahead of the game. Way ahead.

I loved my dad. I will cry. By the way, California, I can relate. Because I had a kitchen fire once.

Anyway, back to big tech. Don't even get me started. We had to work with them. You know. You know, to protect democracy. That's why we had an open line to Facebook and Twitter. Some people called it censorship. That's malarkey. Okay?

It was just, what's the word? Guardrails. Yeah, guard rails for democracy.

That's what that was. And misinformation.

Folks!

I'm serious.

It's everywhere. No joke!

Americans are buried in misinformation.

But let me be clear. We weren't part of that. Okay. Maybe a little bit. But not very much.

I mean, not that you know of.

It's coming out?

Okay. Well, all right.

Maybe a little. We did say Hunter's laptop was fake. Turns out, wasn't. That was a surprise.

No joke, people. I had no idea.

Maybe we had a few things wrong about COVID. You know, like the origins, the lockdowns, the vaccines. But come on! Folks, I'm serious.

It was confusing. You keeping it straight.

Come on.

Look, I know some of you are mad about my family making a few bucks overseas. But, folks, let me tell you, that's how business gets done sometimes.

You know, what are you going to do?

My son, Hunter, good kid. Smart as a whip. Oh, my gosh. What a talented painter he is. Did you hear? Five hundred million dollars of his paintings have been lost in the fire!

Damn it! But a good thing we had insurance on all of that art.

You know, he got some deals. China, Ukraine. Whatever. But it was all aboveboard.

I mean, I'm serious, folks. It's fine. Totally legit. And here's the thing about AI. It's scary.

Artificial intelligence. That's what they call it. I don't trust it. One day, you're talking to your phone.

The next thing you know, it's running your life.

That's why I wanted Congress to ban stock trading for government employees. No joke.

No joke. You can't have senators buying stocks when they know stuff about stocks!

It's just wrong, folks.

Never. I mean, not recently.

I have not recently benefited from stock trading. No joke.

My family made it the old-fashioned way. Through bribery.

That's what we did. All right.

That's America. And let me tell you about America and unity. Folks, we need unity now more than ever.

But you know what is stopping us?

And I mean it!

People who don't listen. They spread lies. They stir up television.

Some of them need to vote for the other guy, and I'm not kidding.

These people are dangerous. Folks, I'm not kidding. Makes me so mad. I could -- I don't know.

You know the rest. Now, I know I've made mistakes. Nobody is perfect. I mean, I'm pretty Tam close. But come on, folks. Give me a break. I'm just doing what's right.

You have to trust me on this. In closing, I want to remind you of the statute of liberty.

That lady has been swaying in the wind for years. But she never falls. Just like America.

She might lead a little to the right or left. But she stays upright. No joke.

It's a miracle. They wouldn't let me change that torch to an ice cream cone. Which I think that would have been great. You know, on her feet, we should have given her some socks or something. Because her feet has to be cold. They're made out of metal, seriously. Seriously, folks.

I'm not joking. What's her hair smell like?

So now it's your turn to stand guard.

Keep the faith. Protect democracy.

And remember, I love the little children.

Hey, God loves the little children.

He keeps them in the palm of his hand.

I've got my palm of my hand on little children.

It's good. Folks, come on!

I'm being serious.

It's real. I love it. I'm serious.

God bless you.

And God bless something else, I don't remember what it was.

So that is a summary of his speech last night.

And --

STU: He's good.

GLENN: Then he walked off into the sunshine.

With the -- and they're pretty close.

He had the seniors come this. You know, from his senior center.

And it was regulated. Ow! That one hurt there. But, hey, he was trying. No, folks, seriously, they're trying their best.

They're seniors. And look at them go. Look at them go.

STU: The Joe Biden players. Ladies and gentlemen.

GLENN: And we're going to miss it. We're going to miss them.

We really are. We really are.

You know, I was thinking, I really don't care except for the instruction.

And I think Democrats have it in the exact right place.

Because they don't care about the destruction, I don't think. At least the ones in Washington.

And they're not paying attention to him at all. They don't care what he's doing. They don't care, okay?

Isn't this exactly the way we should all feel about our president, all the time?

Without the fear of, good God, what is he doing behind the scenes?

Without that fear. He should not have that big of an impact. Nor should all of those clowns in Washington.

You know what I would like to do?

I would like to go back to doing comedy, like, remember, Stu. In the old days, 25 years ago, before 9/11. We were doing comedy.

Wouldn't that be nice? That would be nice.

Would love to do that. But we suddenly had to care. Because these people are out of their mind and out of control.

The way the Democrats care about Joe Biden right now is the way we should care about every president.

Okay?

They should have such little power. No. I'm not joking folks.

I'm not. I'm being serious.

Such little power. We don't care. Yeah.

Yeah. Now, let's go have some ice cream.

STU: I mean, that's -- what the Founders kind of wanted, right?

They wanted a country in which, where you didn't have to think about the cane all the time --

GLENN: Yeah, and you would say, shut up. Shut up.

That's what I think our Founders.

STU: Italian Founders. Yeah. Shut up.

Because, again, it's easy to think about now, as someone you probably like is coming into office.

So you might like the focus on them.

GLENN: Well, I like the focus on them. Because I will fix it. You know what I mean? And then we need to care enough to get those things out of an executive order. And passed as laws. Otherwise, four years from now. We can have somebody -- Karl Marx, they might bring back from the dead. And they will be like, Karl Marx, you know, his first time around didn't go well. But I'm serious, folks. He's great now. And look at that beard. I mean, that's a great beard. Especially for being dead for so long.

And they -- we can -- he will be like, I will do a few executive orders. What? What's the problem?

You know, no! We need to pay attention, so they actually pass these things, as bills.

STU: Interesting. A development on that front. The Republicans are trying to talk Trump out of doing some of these executive orders.

When he first starts. Because of a -- basically a technicality, that comes from this law that we want to pass, this reconciliation bill.

This is their one big bill. To do that. They can pass this bill with only 50 senators.

If it's cutting the deficit, essentially.

And so the -- what -- some of these executive orders that Trump wants to do, will help that. Right?

GLENN: But they need to have them in the pill.

STU: They need to have them in the bill to make sure the scoring is right, so they can pass it.

GLENN: You know, I have to tell you. I think there's more to cut than everyone thinks. Oh, gee, we've got to reduce the deficit.

And you will cut a lot of places. I think you could find more.

STU: I think you can. I think you can.

Again, if you're going to do it anyway. I would prefer, if it's a good measure. And it's going to improve the budget situation. I would rather have it in the reconciliation bill, than as an executive order, for the same reasons you're talking about.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. But I would like to not give away, the stuff that we could get through executive order.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: You know.

STU: If you can get it through the law.

GLENN: Get it through the law.

STU: Get it through the bill. Get it that way. If it's not available there. Then you go --

GLENN: Take it elsewhere.

Because there's a lot that can be cut. Gee. I don't know. We're a few hundred billion dollars away from being able to save the deficit. And pass this bill.

I don't know. Department of Education. Where are the keys?

STU: You can't do that by executive order.

GLENN: No. I'm saying Congress. I'm saying Congress.

We can't do it in the bill.

We can't just pass it with 50, because it's not enough.

Where are the keys to the Department of Education?

I would just like to see them, right now.

Let's put them in the pile. All right.

California Fires and New Jersey Drones: Government Secrets EXPOSED | Glenn TV | Ep 405

The secrets, lies, and utter absence of transparency from all levels of government are tearing our country apart. In just a few days, the Trump administration has the opportunity to change all of that and start a new era of accountability. Over the past decade, we’ve been lied to about Epstein, Ukraine, the Biden crime family … the list goes on! In this episode of Glenn TV, Glenn peels back the layers on two of the biggest stories right now that Americans are DEMANDING answers on: the fires in Los Angeles and the mysterious drone sightings that started in New Jersey but have since occurred all over the world. Then, journalist Michael Shellenberger joins to discuss how California failed to prepare for the Los Angeles wildfires, why there never should have been a dry reservoir, and where he believes the drones are coming from: Are they Chinese, UFOs, or the property of the U.S. government?
