Glenn Beck opened his television program last night by declaring that “it’s time to go now” because everything he has been warning about for the last decare is now all coming to fruition.

Beck said that he sat all of his children down on Sunday night and told them that “now is the time, kids, this is the time that I have been preparing you for almost your whole life now, since September 11th. This is the time.”

He then went on to discuss the latest execution video released by ISIS in which several men were drowned in a cage, while others were executed by having explosives wrapped around their necks. Falsely claiming that the men featured in this video were killed because they were Christians — in reality, they were accused of being spies — Beck warned that “the time of sorrows” has begun and would soon make its way to America.

As evidence, Beck pointed to the firing of Atlanta fire chief Kelvin Cochran, whom he falsely claimed lost his job simply for opposing same-sex marriage at church, insisting that he “was never preaching this at work.” That, of course, is entirely untrue, as Cochran was fired explicitly for promoting his anti-gay views at work.

Beck continued with his misinformation campaign by then repeating his likewise untrue claim that the University of California has banned phrases such as “America is a melting pot,” before inevitably warning that all of this can only end in death.

“When you get down to banning ideas, the next step is banning books,” Beck warned. “First step. They soften the ground, biblical views can get you fired, expressing the idea of merit is bad. What’s next? I will tell you: book burnings, and re-education, and death. That’s not something I’m predicting, that’s not something I’m projecting, that’s not something I’m cheering for, I’m not using hyperbole, I’m looking solely at history.”
