Secret Service investigating Glenn Beck
Someone needs to learn to manage their mouth:
Conservative radio host Glenn Beck is under investigation after a comment he made on his radio show when talking about GOP front-runner Donald Trump. Beck says his comment was not directed towards the presidential candidate.
This appears to be a misunderstanding but the Secret Service tells CBS11 it’s aware of the comment and will conduct an appropriate follow-up investigation.
During his radio show Friday morning, Beck and his producers were talking about the other candidates saying they would support Donald Trump if he becomes the Republican nominee.
His producer mocked Beck after Beck mentioned being in the shoes of Trump’s rivals:
“Was it gigantic shoes?” asked the producer Stu Burguiere.
“If I was close enough and I had a knife. Really. I mean the stabbing just wouldn’t stop,” Beck responded, appearing to direct his comments at Burguiere.
Burguiere said on Facebook, “It was reported that Glenn had threatened to stab a presidential candidate this morning which was odd since I was on the show with him and didn’t notice anything like that… Of course, if you were listening, you know that Glenn actually threatened me, not Donald Trump, so I am in the odd situation of defending my boss for threatening my life.”
Really? Because it sure didn’t sound that way to a whole lot of your audience…

This is the greatest campaign season ever…!!!
Conservatives threatening to stab the conservative candidate, republicans trying to find a way not to support their front runner, and back room plans to go nuclear with a brokered convention…
Meanwhile, Trump is talking about the size of his dick…

What the heck, Beck. If you really mean it, you’ll be GOP’s hero. GOP wants to eliminate Trump-et and you are the solution.

It’s not the first time crazy Glenn has uttered something stupid. This clip was right before a man shot Gabby Giffords. I’d like to say he’s dangerous, but he doesn’t even have enough credibility and reason to be taken seriously.

lately anything short of unwrapping a candy bar Glen has an excuse for doing stupid sh*t.
Texas called this moron home several years ago & its going to take the ss a while to see what level of an idiot he’s at right now

To be fair…. I believe beck always identified himself as a libertarian who carries mostly conservative views.
Beck is NOT your average conservative. He is a lunatic. Always has been.

Yeah, but I don’t think a lot of people, including Beck, are really Libertarians. They use that as a way to escape fire directed at the Republicans.
It’s a defense mechanism that they imagine lets them throw stones but not take fire because they can always claim to not have anything to do with the GOP.
With so few Libertarians in office, and with those few doing so little, they figure they’ll have nearly nothing to defend and don’t have to be stuck defending Republicans.

LOL! All the crazy things he has said and done on TV, Radio, & Internet, and this is why he gets investigated? He should have been carried off to Shady Pines a long time ago.

Kinda wacky, what with the juxtaposition of the picture of Mark LeVin, in a ‘pull my finger’ pose, that reads, “Levin. He’s dominated radio for years. ,i>Now watch him dominate television!
PREORDER NOW
ONLY $59 a year”
Directly under that is the opening line, “Someone needs to learn to manage their mouth.”
