Actual driving range varies with conditions such as external environment, vehicle use, vehicle maintenance, high voltage, battery age, and state of health.

All right. You've got the best of today's podcast. Donald Trump's newest plan to fight for you and clean out all the bureaucrats in Washington. It is it is almost a conservative sex tape. It's that hot. Also, SNL welcomed comedy back. Really? And with today's being Veterans Day, Justin Hoover talks about how we can help the veterans battling the silent battle.

The Berna launcher would honestly help your family out a great deal, I think, especially if you have a gun, but you're kind of pull my gun out if I'm not prepared to kill somebody. And there are times when your family will need that protection without killing people.

As the holidays approach, it's essential to recognize personal safety is a year-round priority, and crime tends to spike during this time of year. What's coming next week, I've got to tell you, I've got my burner launcher with me at all times, and I suggest you do. Hopefully nothing's going to break out, but if I'm going someplace and there's protests and everything else, I don't want my car surrounded by people, and a little tear gas would help.

It's the Burna Launcher, a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your family, your home, and teach somebody a very painful non-lethal lesson. It's legal in all 50 states. No permits or background checks required. It can be used by all age groups over 18. Burna Launcher. It'll incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program. This is like constitutional porn. I just want to warn you. I just want to warn you. You might...

hear some sexy music in your own head. You might be like, Oh yeah. Ding dong pizza delivery. You might hear that. This is the most amazing thing I have heard any president ever say. This is Donald Trump. That's a, that's quite a standard. Just, I want you to make a list. Okay. Just when he says, Oh, and I'm going to do this, just make a list. Okay. Um,

This is his plan to answer and the censorship cartel. We don't have free speech. Then we just don't have a free country. It's as simple as that.

If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one. They'll go down. That's why today I'm announcing my plan to shatter the left-wing censorship regime and to reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans. And "reclaim" is a very important word in this case because they've taken it away. In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed

that a sinister group of deep state bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left-wing activists and depraved corporate news media have been conspiring to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health.

The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately. And here is my plan. First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, business, or person to censor, limit, categorize, or impede the lawful speech of American citizens.

I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as mis- or disinformation. And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship, directly or indirectly, whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human Services, the FBI,

The DOJ, no matter who they are. Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate

all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible, and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified. These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law and antitrust laws, the Hatch Act,

and a host of other potential criminal, civil, regulatory and constitutional offenses. To assist in these efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters, and we have to do this right now, to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign and every Silicon Valley tech giant, ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship.

Third, upon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk revising Section 230 to get big online platforms out of censorship business.

From now on, digital platforms should only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230 if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness, and non-discrimination. We should require these platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content such as child exploitation and promoting terrorism while dramatically curtailing their power

to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech. Fourth, we need to break up the entire toxic censorship industry that has arisen under the false guise of tackling so-called "mis" and disinformation. The federal government should immediately stop funding all nonprofits and academic programs that support this authoritarian project.

If any U.S. university is discovered to have engaged in censorship activities or election interferences in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal of blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars and federal student loan support for a period of five years and maybe more.

We should also enact new laws laying out clear criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats who partner with private entities to do an end run around the Constitution

and deprive Americans of their First, Fourth, and Fifth Amendment rights. In other words, deprive them of their vote. And once you lose those elections, and once you lose your borders like we have, you no longer have a country. Furthermore, to confront the problems of major platforms being infiltrated,

by legions of former deep staters and intelligence officials. There should be a seven-year calling off period before any employee of the FBI, CIA, NSA, DNI, DHS, or DOD is allowed to take a job at a company possessing vast quantities of U.S. user data.

Fifth, the time has finally come for Congress to pass a digital bill of rights. This should include a right to digital due process. In other words, government officials should need a court order to take down online content, not send information requests such as the FBI was sending to Twitter. Furthermore, when users of big online platforms have their content or accounts removed,

Throttled, shadow banned or otherwise restricted, no matter what name they use, they should have the right to be informed that it's happening, the right to a specific explanation of the reason why and the right to a timely appeal.

In addition, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to opt out of content moderation and curation entirely and receive an unmanipulated stream of information if they so choose.

The fight for free speech is a matter of victory or death for America and for the survival of Western civilization itself. When I am president, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control will be ripped out of the system at large. There won't be anything left. By restoring free speech, we'll begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation. Thank you, and God bless America. Wow.

The first thing that strikes me on that is just how different it was than 2016. That's not a guy who's just walking in, I don't know, who should we pick? That's somebody who has a plan. That's one of the exciting things is this is so detailed. Even just what he said, you know there's much more than this behind each one of these.

And so much thought behind all of this. This is a guy who has sat there for at least the last two years, probably the last four years going, all right, I get a second chance. What do we do? What do we do? This is the most comprehensive thing I've ever heard a Republican president ever lay out.

Now, the Democrats do it, but usually they do it in a bill of about 3,000 pages. And you just don't find out until after you just like the happy meal bill. Right. You know, you're like, wait, is this for happy meals? You mean like the Inflation Reduction Act? Yeah, yeah. Kind of like that. Oh, okay. I mean, look at the list. Yeah. I mean, there's a lot in there. No, I...

Yeah. Going after the federal employees colluding to censor speech. And put them in jail. Taking the federal money away from people who are kind of walking that line and drawing our guardrails on mis- and disinformation. That's that, what was that?

name of that organization over in England that we helped start. All the people that were involved in that, bye-bye. And I think a lot of the people on the left and the media will take that as like, oh, he just wants to be able to say conspiracy theories and not be fact-checked. And that's just not...

The truth is that the federal government should have no role in that. None. It's up to... You want to have a media organization... It's not going to stop ABC News from doing misinformation reporting, as dumb as it might be. No. It's just going to stop federal money going to that process, which is totally appropriate for a country that has a First Amendment. Correct. Prosecuting crimes that happen. I'm sure they'll say this is punishing enemies, but in reality...

If you commit a crime, there's supposed to be a consequence. And this is a constitutional crime. Government getting involved in freedom of speech. That's a constitutional crime. And sending preservation letters so that these suits can go forward. So they're not like clearing out, deleting all these files now before he gets into office. That's tough. And that's going to be, by the way, not something he can do personally. That's going to be something senators and such. That's why he said they have to send that right away.

I mean, look, all of this is, I think is good. Is there any part in there that makes you at all nervous?

There's a couple points in there that I could see going the wrong way if we're not careful, which is rewriting section 230. Yes, that could be dicey. That could be... There's nothing wrong with rewriting section 230, but you just have to be careful with it. Well, what he said is... I think what he said was... As long as you have quality... High standards of neutrality. Yeah, yeah. High standards of neutrality. You have to qualify for that and...

And you should ban things that are illegal, you know, child porn, terrorism, things like that. So and that is theoretically already there. But we have really loose standards on these companies for enforcing it. Yeah, it's basically like if you get multiple requests to take some material down and you don't, you can be in trouble. But generally speaking, like they are they don't have to take action.

to go get the stuff. They have to just wait for it to be reported to them and then they have to do it after that process. But the process, of course, is really weak, right? You have millions and millions and millions of posts going up. They would argue that it's impossible to get to all of it. Oh, well.

Oh, well. Oh, no. Maybe you don't get to be as large a company. Right. Maybe, maybe, you know what? We maybe, I mean, look, my, of course, fantasy here is that maybe this doesn't work within the law and the social media companies just go away. That would be tragic. That would be terrible. Now, of course, Zorin, Max Zorin of Zorin Industries, if you go back to A View to a Kill, the documentary from 1985. Right.

I believe that was a James Bond movie. Actually, he advocated for explosives under the earth that would cause a earthquake that would flood all of Silicon Valley. Now, he didn't get to that, unfortunately. I was waiting for that as one of the action steps for the new Trump administration. Didn't quite get there. But, I mean, that's just, maybe that's step seven. We'll get there eventually. The digital bill of rights is so important. Yep, that was interesting. I mean, what's interesting about that is you have a right to

to go without an algorithm love that and it's interesting because europe has a digital bill of rights i would assume it's not going to look very much like the trump one but it is uh first of all there are some similarities there it's like you own your own data that is a big part that's the concept behind the european one some of those concepts you could say are good

And I'm sure will be brought over. But also just the idea that, you know, you don't have to be manipulated by this. Now, it's tough because you should be able to run a website that you won't.

Yes. Right. Like the blaze should not need to go neutral and give all sorts of information from the left. Right. Like we should be able to do what we want to do with our own website. Now, there's that distinction between publisher and sort of curator social network.

That, I think, will probably be the line there. But, again, the details matter on this stuff. As we've seen over and over and over again, if you don't get that exactly right, it could be a problem. But, I mean, you know, that's what the process will be for. I think the idea – first of all, you're a public square now. This is where – I hate the public square argument. It's digital now. Right.

I know. Nobody gets on their soapbox and we're walking in our town square and we see somebody stand up and say, I want to give a speech. If you want a town square, then it's like...

Then make a town square. These are companies that have spent their own money on this stuff. I understand. I just feel like they should be... Look, there's a lot here that I understand and I think is a good thing. Making essentially... Just turning giant private companies into utilities makes me very nervous. No, I'm not saying that. Should Elon Musk have to deal with all that? No, I'm... He bought the company. No, no, no. If he... I mean, when is the next government...

The next time the Democrats get in control and they take this public square and they make their own rules with it makes me really nervous. I get what he's saying. I think we'll be able to walk this line, but let's be honest that we have to walk a line here and just be careful here. I agree with that. But you have things like an algorithm. You have a right to unmask. I don't have a right to necessarily know their algorithm, but I do have a right to say, you know what? I don't want you filtering stuff.

Why don't you have a right to do that? And this is the sort of thing that they should have just done. Yeah, it is. You know, it wouldn't have been an issue if they just did it. It would have been easy. They should have just had an off button, but they couldn't bring themselves to do that because they wanted A, money, and B, to control the public opinion. How many people will their eyes be opened if you have that? And you just say, just unmask it. Just unmask it for a week. See what you see. Be pretty amazing. Yeah.

Now back to the podcast.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. The year was 2016. The election has just been lost to Donald J. Trump. Hillary Clinton didn't even show up. I mean, this is exactly the same thing. She left her supporters in the lurch. Then Saturday, Saturday Night Live comes on and this is their opening sketch.

Okay, so far no laughs. That's McKenna, whatever her name is, dressed as Hillary Clinton, looking like Hillary Clinton, just playing the piano.

I mean, and it goes on like, okay, you can stop. There's no humor to it at all. And then they're like, from New York, it's Saturday night. What is that? All right. This is what they did this time. To many people, including many people watching this show right now, the results were shocking and even horrifying. Donald Trump, who tried to forcibly overturn the results of the last election, was returned to office by an overwhelming majority.

This is the same Donald Trump who openly called for vengeance against his political enemies. And that is why we at SNL would like to say to Donald Trump, we have been with you all along. We have never wavered in our support of you, even when others doubted you.

Every single person on this stage believed in you. Every single person on this stage voted for you. Because we see ourselves in you. We look at you and think, "That's me." And I want my future children to look up to. And Mr. Trump, Your Honor, we know that you say things that are controversial sometimes, but really, you're just speaking the truth.

And I hate how the lamestream media, Michael Che, tries to spin it to make you look foolish. So if you're keeping some sort of list of your enemies, then we should not be on that list. I mean, it's not the greatest sketch of all time, but at least they attempted to have fun.

Some humor. Right. Yeah. At least it wasn't coming out and playing the piano and dirge. Yeah. That was a funeral. Yeah. It was a funeral. And that's how they felt. So then Bill Burr came out and he was funny as usual and hit both sides.

Which, fine, I'm totally cool with. I don't care if you hit both sides. It's why the Simpsons, how do they not know this? This is why the Simpsons are so popular. Because you know if they're hitting one side, they're going to hit the other just as hard. Hello? Is anybody listening? So maybe comedy is back. Yeah, because it seems like in 2016, it seemed like this...

once in a lifetime mistake to them. Like this is, I can't believe this happened. You know, and I think like when he gets elected a second time, you just kind of have to be like, oh, it was kind of just like,

Your reality, like whatever world you think exists doesn't exist. The 20s, the the whatever world a SNL comedian is surrounded by on a daily basis is not a real world. No, it's a very small part of a real world. Yeah, but it is not real. It's not real life. Well, maybe they're understanding that a little bit. Well, I mean, it's very real. Once you have women saying they're not they're they're not going to they're not going to have sex with men for four years now.

Yeah. Yeah. Then it gets real fast, Stu. Does it? It gets real fast. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I want to know, is anyone in this listening audience, is your husband or wife saying that to you? I'd like to talk to you. I can't imagine.

Can you? No. No. That's not right. I feel like we do get into this world where we highlight the craziest people on the internet and make them into stories. And like, I think that's only insane people are doing that, right? Hang on just a second. We have, wow, Candy is on the phone. Hello, Candy. Hello, Glenn.

How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm very, very well. And I heard you ask for people who have refused to have sex after this Trump. This Trump, Hitler man, has been elected or suspended.

to be president of the United States. Okay, so are you married, Candy? I am not. You're not. Surprise. And so you've sworn off sex. I have. I've sworn off sex. No more candy for you. None of my sweet treats coming your way. Oh.

That's good. Yeah. I mean, people, you know, you people look at me all the time. I see them look at me up and down as I walk down the street. I bet. And they're looking at it and say, look at that. Look at that thing. And I know what they mean. Yeah. A lot of times they'll walk up to me and they'll say, oh, yeah, look at that. And then they'll say, hey, baby.

And then they'll walk away in the other direction quickly. Right. And I take that as they just are so turned on. Yeah. They can't resist. They don't want to embarrass themselves. So because of Trump, you've started not having sex with anyone. Well, I've upped my game. What do you mean you've upped your game? Because of Trump. What do you mean you've upped your game? Well, I've been sexless since 1992. Yeah.

Ish. 1992-ish. Yeah, well, let's see. It was 80, yeah, 90, well, it was more like, well, 92 is when I stopped having sex, but that was because people didn't want to have sex with me at that time. But I gave it all up. I withheld it from the men starting in about 1995. So, Candy, you know how people say that men are only interested in sex? Oh, yeah, they are. Yeah, and that makes women just objects.

Well, that's what they say, yeah. Yeah, that's what they say. Well, wouldn't you be kind of confirming that by holding sex back? Isn't that you saying I'm nothing but a sex object? I'm just acknowledging the reality. People want me.

They want me sexually, Glenn. Have you seen some of the ladies online that are... I've seen them. Oh, yeah. They're very, very attractive. Look, I'm not going to say I'm a perfect 10. Right. What are you? I'm more like an 8. You're an 8? 8.5 out of 100. Really? I think that... How are you scoring the 8? 8 out of 100. Just like the normal scoring. 8 out of 100. Scoring.

I didn't realize there was 92 other choices. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. There's a lot of them up there. Wow. But I said I'm not going to give you this. Ever since they nominated that hate monger. Right. Bob Dole. Wait. I was like, I'm out. You're Bob. No more. Right. No more sex for you. Right. Because Bob Dole. This is a Dole-related protest that I will not give up on.

Now, this isn't just happening because you're hideously ugly. How dare you? No, I'm sorry. I'm only, I'm just asking. You should see what I'm wearing right now. Do you want to hear? Not really.

That's good, because I think it would repulse the audience. We'd have no listeners left. So I'll hold it back. Okay, all right. I'll hold it back. But I will say there's some very, this velvet, I'm wearing some velvet. You're wearing velvet. Red velvet. Red velvet. What I'm saying is I'm currently covered in cake. That's what I'm saying to you.

So stupid. Okay. It's good that we have a good diverse audience, and that's what's important in this show. Very good. All different types. All different types. Different strokes. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. It is Veterans Day, and there are a ton of veterans now that are homeless, which is absolutely terrible.

inexcusable. What we're doing with people that are coming from other countries who haven't given any service to our nation at all, and we're putting them up and we're giving them food and everything else, that is an abomination, especially in comparison to what our veterans have done for us. They come back, they're wounded mentally or physically, some of them both, many of them struggle. I'm sorry, but the

The VA is also an abomination. I mean, everybody's like, oh, we I really want, you know, socialized medicine. Really talk to a veteran. See how they get the shaft. If they'll give these guys are war heroes that crappy of health care. What do you think you're going to get? Well, one of my mottos has always been if we wanted the government to do less, we have to do more.

And there's a lot of really great groups out there to help veterans. A new one that I have found that I really, really like is the Battle Within. And I've asked the executive director to come on with me. His name is Justin Hoover. And you can find this at thebattlewithin.org, thebattlewithin.org. When I was up in Kansas City, I met with him, and he's got an incredible story to tell. Justin, welcome.

Thank you so much, Glenn. So great to be here with you here on Veterans Day. Yeah, thank you. So, Justin, tell me, tell me your story.

Sure. Yeah. So really my story starts in Iraq. I was in Tal Afar, Sinjar region. I know when you were in Kansas City, we talked about you being there. It's where the Yazidi got chased up the Mount Nadep. And so that was really my AO. And I spent a year, just shy of a year there. There was a lot of heavy fighting that went on. I ended up coming home with a pair of Purple Hearts. First one, thanks to some small arms fire to the face and the

The second one,

bummer left me full of some shrapnel that i had to get medevac to out of country to get tended to and ended up resulting coming home and after that you know glenn i really felt like i i had all my stuff together i got out of the military came back to kansas city was really moving on with my life and forward with my life for the next 10 years and it wasn't until my stepdaughter at high school and was really

suffering from depression and suicide ideology, that all the things that I suppressed, you know, I'll just say kids should never be in a war zone. Um, and I,

All the times when I couldn't help those children in the way that I wanted were kind of replaying itself in my living room. And just that hopelessness and helplessness just really drove me and my mental health into a dark place. And fortunately, my wife recognized it and was able to convince me to actually tend to it. And that's when I really started my own journey and my own path towards getting better myself. How'd you do it?

Well, I was very fortunate. You know, I tried different services. You know, I tried with the VA. And I'll say we're off on our own biggest barrier, right? There's a lot of barriers. Wait, you're breaking up. Are you there? Oh, I

I am. Are you able to hear me? Yeah, I am now. Go ahead. There we go. So, you know, we're off on our own biggest barriers to our mental health. And I was very fortunate. He's now our clinical manager at a major said designed a program that I went through and it was just so life changing. And I knew I needed to stay involved in this community. And that really kind of led to the battle with ends creation just as a way to pay it forward.

others that have been in that same space that I was. And because it really allowed me to be the

the family man the the father the the partner the parent that i wanted to be it allowed me to really have the self-confidence and find myself again to be able to be a leader of an organization to be able to provide that mental health for others so you you came home and you didn't necessarily i mean

I don't want to make this such a blanket statement, but you didn't necessarily fight with what you had done. It's what you couldn't do or didn't do, the saving of others. Is that right? Yeah. And everyone's story is so unique and so personal to their own. But for me, really...

I felt I had 10 fingers, 10 toes. I kept seeing all these organizations helping veterans, and a lot of them were amputees or burn victims, of which there were guys in my unit that that applied to. And so I really felt, hey, I'm good to go. I don't want to take services anymore.

somebody else. I know there's limited resources and I want it to go to them. And so we all do that, right? Because we are these selfless servants. And so there's always that call to just

allow others that need it worse. And I always tell people now, it's kind of like a mass casualty event. Like when an IED goes off, you don't tell the medic, no, I'm good to go. The medic triages you all and tells you, hey, you need services now or you need them here in a little bit and ranks you on who gets to go on the medevac.

bird first. And so really that's, that's what we do at the battle within as we help people get started on that path to healing. And that's, that was really the struggle for me is finding both the courage and the permission to allow myself that healing process. So this is free to veterans, if I'm not mistaken. Um, what is, what do you do? What is like the five day program and the,

Go ahead. Yeah, great question. And as you said, yes, it is free to our veterans and first responders throughout the entire nation. And really what we do at the Battle Within during our five-day Revenant journey is we really take these people that come in, really most of them hopeless, and we give them that opportunity to fully understand and explore those traumas that they've endured in service to us all. And that's very hard to do, right? Because you don't want...

to, you don't want to expose those parts of yourself because in our professions, there's a lot of shame and stigma that goes with that. These are team sports, they're life or death sports. If I share that I'm not in a good place, then

You're hurting the team. Yeah, that's a good way to get kicked out of the family unit. So to really allow them a place where they can come and share that. Are these doctors? Are these doctors or veterans? Yeah, we have clinicians that lead the program. Several of them are veterans themselves. We also have peer support that are previous graduates that are veterans or first responders that come back and

and really hold the space, help process, and be there for these folks as they go through what's a very challenging but rewarding week. So here we are on Veterans Day. Give me your pitch to any veteran who might be listening who is struggling or any family member that knows of somebody who is struggling.

You know, I would just say that there is a place that understands what you're going through, that cares what you're going through and believes that you're worth it. And I think that that is such a challenge where that

Veterans get into this isolated place where they believe that nobody understands, nobody cares, and that they're not worth it. And that is the perfect recipe for isolation, depression, and ultimately suicide. And so if you are struggling with whatever in your life, please reach out for help, either through the battle within or to someone else. That first step is the hardest step.

but it gets so much easier and there is hope and that's really what we bring at the battle within is we bring that hope we bring those tools we bring that community support to really allow people to reclaim their life and to to really have the life that they've earned and that they deserve for themselves and their family i will tell you that i i'm a recovering alcoholic and

you get to a point where you're like, nothing can help me. Nothing can help me. It's just me. I'm the problem. And you've just boxed yourself into this corner where there's no way out.
