The Robinson Armament XCR is the most advanced firearm available.
00:00:04.080
It's not an AR-15, it's much better. The XCR is reliable and durable due to its AK-inspired
00:00:10.500
heavy-duty bolt, extractor, and ejector. Its adjustable piston-driven action maximizes
00:00:15.660
reliability while minimizing recoil and works well with sound suppressors.
00:00:20.100
The XCR's ergonomics are second to none. All controls are placed intuitively so you can keep
00:00:25.140
your eyes on target while performing all manual functions. The XCR's modular design lets you
00:00:30.200
customize it to your exact needs. Its quick-change barrel system allows you to change barrel length
00:00:34.920
and caliber in under 5 minutes. It's available then and convertible to the most popular calibers.
00:00:40.280
The XCR is proudly made in the USA by a company owned by U.S. citizens. Join the ranks of firearms
00:00:45.840

Holy cow, everything was No Kings today. We covered it from the financing to the hippies
00:01:06.920
to the definition of fascism. Everything that you need to know we covered and today we released a
00:01:15.720
whole bunch of No Kings But Christ merch. Yeah, a little different than their No Kings movie. A
00:01:20.920
little, a little. They don't seem to want Christ to be involved in any of it. No. I mean, well,
00:01:25.020
unless Christ is the government. It is to them. Yeah, and even though if Christ was actually running
00:01:31.340
the government, they would probably be against it. Oh, yeah. So anyway, all of that merch is
00:01:37.000
available now at glennbeck.com. You don't want to miss it. And today is a very good show.
00:01:41.120
Start to finish, here it is, the Best Up Podcast. Let me tell you about relief factor. There is a
00:01:47.380
point in your life when you realize how many, you know, little things you used to take for granted.
00:01:51.080
Tossing a ball with your kid, climbing a ladder without thinking about it, or even just sitting
00:01:55.360
down, you know, without shifting to find the least bad position. You don't notice those moments
00:02:01.120
when they leave. You notice when they come back. That's what people talk about when they talk about
00:02:06.660
relief factor. They talk about, you know, the laughs returning, the projects, the simultaneous
00:02:11.380
sure-all-help moments that make you feel useful and alive again. Because when you're living in a world
00:02:17.180
of pain, the world gets smaller. You'll say, maybe later. I can't today. More than you want to.
00:02:24.400
But when relief factor helps your body fight that inflammation, you start moving freely again,
00:02:28.740
the world opens back up. Relief factor. It doesn't just give you something new. It gives you back
00:02:33.360
something old, something you, your body always had. And that is a working body. Freedom. So when
00:02:40.840
you get that back, you'll just feel better and you'll feel like your life is the same again. You'll
00:02:45.940
feel like you again. Try their three-week quick start. See if you can get that back. 1995. Visit

00:03:03.360
Hello, America. You know, we've been fighting every single day. We push back against the lies,
00:03:09.100
the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you. We work
00:03:14.100
tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it. But to keep this fight
00:03:19.380
going, we need you right now. Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
00:03:24.600
Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's
00:03:30.120
algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth. This isn't a podcast. This is a movement
00:03:36.140
and you're part of it, a big part of it. So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people
00:03:40.560
to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top. Rate, review, share. Together, we'll make a difference.
00:03:46.880
And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work.
00:03:57.560
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:04:01.760
All right. So I wish I would have, I wish I would have thought of this on Friday, you know,
00:04:06.900
before the no Kings, but we're not done with these kinds of stupid things. So before anybody,
00:04:12.020
you know, raises a sign before you chant a stupid slogan, before you pledge allegiance to a movement
00:04:21.420
or a political party, I want you to stop. And I want you to ask yourself one simple question.
00:04:30.500
We live in a time where, uh, emotion is mistaken for morality. And that is exactly how free people
00:04:59.100
become unfree. Okay. Not because tyranny kicks down the door one night, but because
00:05:05.100
we hand it the keys in the name of change when we're not thinking. So before you do anything,
00:05:15.520
before you march, before you protest, before you make a sign, before you argue with somebody,
00:05:21.200
pause and think to yourself, why am I drawn to this? When, when you're watching things on X,
00:05:31.440
why am I drawn to this? Is it anger? Is it fear? Is it guilt? Or is it principle? When I want to stand
00:05:41.720
up for something, I don't want to do it in anger. I don't want to do it in fear. I don't want to do
00:05:45.280
it in guilt. I want to do it in principle. And having a principle means you have a deeply held
00:05:51.580
belief that this cause reflects truth and justice. Now be careful, be really careful because you may
00:06:03.400
have been convinced that you're right because of what you're against, but what is right and what
00:06:10.480
you're against are not the same thing. For instance, right now with conservatives, I guess it's becoming
00:06:17.880
more and more popular to be against Israel. Okay, that's fine. You don't have to agree with Israel.
00:06:22.800
I don't ask you to agree with Israel. I don't want to fight their fights. I don't agree with their
00:06:26.240
policies on everything. They're not the United States of America. They're their own country. So I disagree
00:06:32.080
with them just like I disagree with Britain sometimes. Okay. I don't really care. But being against
00:06:38.780
Israel does not mean the same as being for Hamas. You've joined something different.
00:06:50.300
That means you have allowed your passions and your feelings to rule over you. That's why it that's
00:06:57.320
why everybody wants to make something, you know, that's why our, our declaration of independence
00:07:02.180
and our country has lasted 250 years. It's the only revolutionary document that has ever lasted
00:07:07.500
and only one, only one in world history that ended with the same people who started the
00:07:13.540
revolution. The only one. Why? Because it didn't start with anger. It didn't. It started with
00:07:21.760
principles. We hold these things to be true, self-evident. We don't want to be against something
00:07:26.640
being against Trump. You can be against Trump, but that doesn't mean you're for Antifa.
00:07:33.240
Being for justice doesn't mean you're anti-ice unless your passions have overcome your logic.
00:07:45.240
So the first thing you have to do, why am I here? And if I strip away the crowd, if I strip away the
00:07:50.080
pressure, the chance, the popularity, would I be standing here? If no one ever knew that I joined,
00:07:58.180
if no one, if there were no such thing as likes, no cameras, no praise. In fact, if everyone I knew
00:08:04.380
and admired were against this, would I still believe it and do it? If the answer is to no to that,
00:08:15.480
then you're not following conviction. You're following a crowd. You have to be convicted that
00:08:22.100
even if I stand alone, I'm willing to do it. So what does this movement stand for? Am I willing
00:08:30.660
to stand all by myself? Do you even know? How many interviews did you hear this weekend where people
00:08:35.560
are like, I don't know. And they always say the same thing. I don't want to talk to you.
00:08:39.820
Why? Because they can't answer the question. They don't have any idea what this is about.
00:08:44.460
Other than a bumper sticker or the press release, do you know what the real agenda is? What is the
00:08:52.360
goal? Who is behind it? What methods are they willing to use to get there? Do the ends justify
00:09:01.120
the means? Now, this is really important because people are starting to believe, yeah, I can kill
00:09:06.300
people. That's what, that's honestly, Virginia, you may not look at it this way, but this way I look
00:09:11.520
at the Virginia election. Virginians, have you decided the ends justify the means? That it doesn't
00:09:18.900
matter if somebody says I can kill their children to change their political point of view. The ends
00:09:26.000
justify the means. Okay. If the ends justify the means, you have to ask yourself this question.
00:09:32.020
What principles or freedoms have to be or are okay to sacrifice for that end? Because once you start
00:09:44.280
sacrificing those things, like saying it's okay to kill children for political purposes, you become
00:09:50.520
Hamas in the end. History has a real warning for us. Every single authoritarian movement, left or right,
00:09:59.560
doesn't matter. All of them promised liberation. Every single one. They promised equity, justice,
00:10:07.360
safety, and they delivered control, science, and fear. If the message of a movement,
00:10:18.600
if the methods of the movement betray its message, if it has to censor or coerce, if liberties
00:10:28.300
have to be violated, then it's not liberation. It's manipulation. If they have to manipulate people
00:10:36.700
and cut corners, coerce or censor or betray liberties to get there, they will not stop doing it.
00:10:48.680
Next question you have to ask, does this movement make people more free or more dependent?
00:10:53.080
Freedom is not just the absence of chains. This was the big thing that Booker T. Washington was all
00:11:06.860
about. You'd be free but not know how to be free unless you're educated, unless you're willing to
00:11:12.320
stand on your own. Here's a slave that pulled himself out, defied all of the odds, became one of the
00:11:19.360
greatest black Americans in American history. And he was talking about be more independent, not
00:11:26.800
dependent. That's what freedom is. It's not the absence of chains. It is the presence of
00:11:33.380
responsibility. So if you think that freedom means I don't have responsibility, I don't have to do
00:11:40.380
anything, you will be under the chains of somebody else. Because that means somebody else has to do
00:11:46.500
those things, has to feed you. And so they will require you to do things because they're feeding
00:11:52.120
you. Ask, does this movement actually promote policies that trust individuals to make decisions
00:12:03.840
for themselves? Or do the people leading this believe they know better than everyone else?
00:12:09.500
will it hand people more power to bureaucrats and experts and elites? Does it always defend free
00:12:20.580
speech, especially for those who disagree? Or does it silence them in the name of progress?
00:12:28.580
does it expand choice? Or does it force compliance? The only choice, the only choice you could say is
00:12:41.660
the one that the right says, and I believe, is not a choice to kill another human being. I don't believe
00:12:48.480
that's a choice if you're a doctor and you want to give somebody medication to end their life.
00:12:52.980
I don't believe it's a choice for you. You can kill yourself if you want, but I'm not going to help you
00:12:59.360
do it. And I don't think it's a choice to kill a baby. It's not. It's not a choice. That's the only choice
00:13:08.180
that they always point to. My body, my choice. Well, but if it's your body, how come you're forcing
00:13:16.320
everyone to take a vaccine that not everybody wants? That has to be consistent. If it's not
00:13:23.060
consistent, then you are living a lie. You are picking and choosing the choices you want.
00:13:30.340
You don't actually believe in choice. If it makes people less capable of living without the state,
00:13:39.700
it's not freedom. It's dependency dressed up as compassion. If I want others to be free,
00:13:56.740
We love talking about freedom in this country. We love it as if it's something that politicians
00:14:01.980
can hand out. You'll vote for me and more freedom. What? It's not. Freedom is not sustained
00:14:11.420
by our laws. Freedom is sustained by our character. This is what this means. It means you have to defend
00:14:23.420
the right of people that you despise, not just those you like and agree with. You must stand for the
00:14:31.180
rights of people you despise. You must stand for the rights of people to say horrible things
00:14:37.960
that you despise. Otherwise, you don't actually believe in freedom and freedom of speech.
00:14:46.980
See, freedom requires you to do the hard work and the hard work that nobody is doing, understanding
00:14:54.440
issues deeply, reading the original sources, not the headlines, not the clippings, not the tweets.
00:15:03.220
Anybody who gets their news off of Twitter and Facebook, you are less educated and less informed
00:15:11.960
than the people who read nothing at all. You have to do the hard work and you have to do the hard
00:15:20.840
work of mastering yourself, your impulse, your ignorance, your anger, so you don't become the
00:15:27.520
thing you're fighting against. Has anybody noticed that when you're watching these crowds, the biggest
00:15:32.140
thing is hypocrisy? You're like, are you kidding me? You're saying these things? Do you not know
00:15:37.500
that you are the thing you're fighting against? And freedom requires courage to stand alone. It requires
00:15:51.060
virtue. It requires humility. And it requires the truth. But how do I know what's true?
00:15:58.740
So this is the hardest part of all, I think. And that is, how do I find what is true? How do I know
00:16:07.500
what is true? Truth doesn't come prepackaged as a slogan. Truth is not usually found in a trending
00:16:14.660
hashtag. Truth requires years and years and years of work. Most importantly, it requires humility.
00:16:22.760
If you're searching for truth, you must be willing to change your belief or your behavior when you find
00:16:34.680
it. If not, you're not actually searching for truth. Ask yourself, am I willing to challenge my
00:16:43.380
own belief? Am I willing to end up at a place where I don't believe any of that stuff? I thought I
00:16:48.500
believe that, but I don't. And it's shocking to me, but I don't. If you're not willing to go there, then
00:16:56.460
you're not seeking truth. You know, are you, are you seeking voices you disagree with? Or just people that
00:17:04.900
are echoing what you believe? Who benefits if I believe this? Who benefits? Who profits? Who gains
00:17:15.360
power? Truth has nothing to fear from questions, all kinds of questions. No, no, you don't ever have
00:17:22.600
to fear. Truth doesn't care. Okay. Lies have a lot to fear. So here's a test you should run before you
00:17:33.640
commit to picking up or making any sign. This is something you should commit to before you go to
00:17:41.800
Thanksgiving. If your side achieved everything they wanted, every law, every reform, every revolution,
00:17:52.420
would ordinary people become more self-governing and more responsible and more free or more managed,
00:18:01.980
more dependent, and more controlled? If the answer is the latter, do not join them. No matter how
00:18:10.780
righteous they may sound, do not join them. No matter how noble their intentions, do not join
00:18:18.460
them. Because tyranny wrapped in good intentions is still tyranny. We're standing on a knife's edge
00:18:28.400
as a nation. I mean, have you seen the price of gold today? What is it, Stu? 43... Over 4,300, yeah.
00:18:34.900
$4,300. $4,300. Does that mean anything to you? If it doesn't, you should check it out. It does. It's
00:18:42.280
going to mean something to you in the end. It means the rest of the world is saying, I'm not sure about
00:18:49.180
this whole system that it's going to last. That should change everything that you think. It should
00:18:54.960
change the way you say, okay, well, you know, I used to like this program, but I'm not sure we can
00:19:00.060
afford this program anymore. You know, I used to vote for this person, but that person will not
00:19:04.940
stop the spending. I want my kids to be able to have freedom. I may not like everything about America,
00:19:12.900
but I think America is the best system out there. I don't want it, you know, I don't, you know,
00:19:19.220
what is it, Singapore or something? Or one of the really, I think it was Afghanistan. I saw some
00:19:25.340
numbers this weekend. Afghanistan has arrested like 2,000 people for, you know, speech problems
00:19:33.380
in the last year. 2,000 people have gone to jail for something they posted or something they said.
00:19:40.040
12,000 people have gone to jail in Great Britain this year for the same thing. 12,000 people have gone
00:19:51.140
to jail for free speech. One of them is a kid who said, I love bacon.
00:20:01.920
We're on this knife's edge and the difference between liberty and bondage is going to come
00:20:06.780
down to whether ordinary people start asking better questions before you march, before you say
00:20:13.140
anything. Are you thinking before you join? Have you learned? Have you spent the time to ask these
00:20:18.840
questions before you speak? Do you understand what you're actually saying before you follow?
00:20:25.280
Make sure you're walking towards freedom, not away with it and check the people you're following.
00:20:31.620
Is this a group of people that 25 years ago you would have been comfortable with?
00:20:36.900
And I mean that saying, you know, I don't think any of us were fine walking with communists.
00:20:42.860
I don't think we were fine walking with anarchists. None of us were.
00:20:47.980
So why are they're not walking towards freedom? They're walking away from freedom. Why are you
00:20:52.100
walking with them? History is really clear. Nations don't live there, lose their liberty all at once.
00:21:05.180
Let me tell you about my Patriot Supply. Just because you made it through last year doesn't mean you're
00:21:09.400
ready for this one. Storms don't care about your zip code. Power outages don't check your schedule.
00:21:13.840
They just arrive and then turn your home into a test of how well you are prepared. The good news is
00:21:19.040

It's a compact little lifesaver that can, you know, heat a 200 square foot room and cook a hot meal
00:21:41.440
without gas or electricity. It is safe. It is clean burning. It's canned heat. Plus,
00:21:47.760
they're also including the Alexa Pure water filtration pitcher. This thing is fabulous. We
00:21:52.620
literally, remember when we did this too, we literally used Alexa filter to take puddle water
00:22:01.000
out of the streets of Manhattan and purify it and drink it. I mean, it's incredible. Plus,

00:22:31.860
slash Glenn. Now back to the podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:22:39.640
So I want to just talk to you a little bit about what happened over the weekend. You know,
00:22:45.120
they call themselves the resistance. They marched under banners and signs that said no Kings and they
00:22:51.040
chanted about tearing down the powerful and reclaiming democracy for the people. But I want
00:22:56.660
you to stop after what you've seen this weekend. I want you to stop just for a minute. And I want
00:23:00.980
you to think critically about one thing. If this movement is truly against billionaires and the
00:23:09.700
powerful, why is it funded by billionaires and the powerful? It is no longer hard to dig deep into the
00:23:20.560
so-called no Kings movement. And the more you dig, the more you realize this isn't a rebellion. This
00:23:26.960
is strategy. This is not grassroots. This is astroturf. You know, when you come with signs that are
00:23:33.660
printed by a labor union, you're pretty clear. The average person didn't do that. They're like,
00:23:40.320
I need to get, I need to get a labor union to make sure that these are labor union printed signs.
00:23:44.240
It's not happening. So this is astroturf. And it's not about dismantling power. This is so important.
00:23:53.880
No Kings would make you think, well, they don't want a King. So they wouldn't want somebody to say,
00:23:59.580
you know, COVID, you don't take the jab. You don't work. You don't take the jab. You're fired. You don't
00:24:05.500
take the jab. You don't get to go to the hospital. You would think no Kings would mean all of that was
00:24:11.280
wrong, but it doesn't. This is not about dismantling power. This is about rearranging
00:24:16.460
power. So let's start with the money because in politics, money tells the truth, even when people
00:24:23.640
don't. So according to several sources, including Fox news, multiple investigative reports, uh,
00:24:30.880
including Peter Swiser, George Soros and his open society action fund granted $3 million to
00:24:38.240
indivisible. Now this is one of the primary organizers of the no Kings protest. Okay. So
00:24:45.220
wait a minute. So a billionaire, George Soros gives money to help fund this against billionaires,
00:24:53.260
but it goes on. Soros is larger network. The open society foundation gave over 7.6 million to the
00:25:00.500
same operation. So now we're over a 10, we're almost at $11 million, but Soros is not alone.
00:25:06.880
If you follow the funding trail, it leads to what a surprise, the Arabella network. This is a network
00:25:13.940
that we exposed on my TV show many, many Wednesdays ago, probably about five years ago. It's a billion
00:25:21.240
dollar a year, dark money empire that launders donations from the uber wealthy donors to grassroots
00:25:29.680
activism. Now you add in the Bill Gates foundation. You're really against billionaires?
00:25:36.720
And yet you're for the Bill Gates foundation or the Ford foundation, or here's my favorite,
00:25:43.780
the Rockefeller network, Rockefeller. You also have the tides foundation and sing them. Okay.
00:25:53.740
You have a small club of financial elites that are bankrolling what investigative journalist,
00:26:00.800
Peter Schweitzer calls Riot Inc. That needs to be known from everyone. There is now this organization
00:26:10.600
funded by billionaires, Riots Inc. And it is the permanent protest industrial complex. Now,
00:26:19.800
this is not just conjecture. This is not opinion. This is now documented fact, IRS falling, uh,
00:26:26.620
filings, annual reports, public statements. They all show the same things. Billionaires are funding
00:26:33.580
the outrage machine, but they were holding signs that said no billionaires. What the, what? Okay.
00:26:42.140
So obvious questions. Why, why are they doing that? Well, they're just supporting democracy.
00:26:49.100
Wait a minute. George Soros. What? Democracy does not require a billion dollar scaffold of nonprofits
00:26:59.540
and coordinated media campaigns. It doesn't need that. Okay. It just needs the truth. It certainly
00:27:06.400
doesn't require hiring data firms and communication specialists, you know, and scripts, uh, that will
00:27:13.720
script out the entire protest that to make, that'll make it appear as though it's spontaneous. Okay.
00:27:20.180
What we're seeing here is not a movement. What you're seeing is a manufactured event.
00:27:28.540
Now, that's not just my opinion. That's now how us intelligence agencies have run regime change
00:27:34.940
operations overseas for decades. Go back many moons ago on our Wednesday night special again. And I
00:27:41.300
will show you all of the ins and outs of what's called a color revolution. Color revolutions are
00:27:47.320
something that was done by our government. And this is part of the deep state. That's why people say
00:27:52.240
this is a deep state operation as well, because this, what this came, these tactics were developed by
00:27:59.320
the CIA and they're called color revolutions. And what they do is they flood the streets with
00:28:05.540
quote, organic protesters. They control the media, the media narrative, they destabilize the existing
00:28:13.520
system, and then they overthrow that system and install a new one. Okay. So we've done this over
00:28:20.540
the Arab spring was not grassroots. The Arab spring was done by our government along with others,
00:28:26.940
including Facebook. Okay. The same tactics are being deployed here, but here's the catch.
00:28:36.020
When the CIA runs these operations in foreign countries, they rely on young delusioned activists.
00:28:43.880
Okay. The people who actually, what is called traditionally useful idiots. They don't know they're
00:28:50.280
being used and they have a genuine gripe yet. The crowds, I don't know if you saw them this weekend,
00:28:56.220
at the no Kings rally, most of these now are white baby boomers. They're retirees who balance
00:29:04.140
checkbooks and that are now waving anti-capitalist placards. So wait, we've got billionaires and baby
00:29:12.000
boomers. Okay. Does that sound like a spontaneous uprising? Especially when, and I'll show you later,
00:29:21.800
the signs from the actual no Kings rallies all over actually have the logos of the corporations,
00:29:32.000
of the labor unions and the communist party. There it is up on the screen. If you happen to be watching,
00:29:39.440
the communist party is a sponsor and their logo is up at the rallies. That doesn't seem spontaneous.
00:29:49.000
What it does seem like, and I was happy to see it is the script is running thin. Okay. The only ones
00:29:57.180
that believe this crap anymore are the aging hippies, the people who have tried to overthrow this
00:30:03.260
government over and over and over again. They want their Marxist utopia. They've wanted it in 1968.
00:30:08.720
They wanted it in 78 and 88, 98 and 2028. Okay. They want the same thing. No matter how many times it
00:30:16.960
has failed in their lifetime, they somehow or another think it's going to work this time and they won't
00:30:23.080
have to live under it. So this brings me back to the paradox, which is what I started with. Why would
00:30:30.560
the wealthiest people on earth fund a movement that says it's about destroying billionaires and their
00:30:39.440
wealth and their power? A couple of logical answers here. One, they're suicidal. They're self-hating
00:30:47.640
billionaires. Have you ever met a self-hating billionaire? Because I have not met one. Well, they're pretty
00:30:53.220
confident. They, they pretty, they pretty, they like it. They like it a lot. Okay. And they generally
00:30:58.460
are a little egotistical. They know more than you do. Okay. So what's left? Well, the billionaires
00:31:06.980
know by creating this, it will make them richer and more powerful. How? Well, first of all, you have to
00:31:18.340
control the narrative. By funding the activism, billionaires shape the issues that you and I talk
00:31:24.360
about all the time. And then they shape the solutions that you accept. You'll notice all of
00:31:31.100
this, you know, global warming stuff that was all shaped by corporations, billionaires, and people who
00:31:36.800
win in the end governments. They get more power and more money. And we saw it when the WEF started to do
00:31:45.100
the great reset. You had banks and corporations colluding to make sure that if you didn't agree
00:31:52.040
with them, you weren't going to get a loan from the bank. Who does that empower? You or the corporations
00:32:01.160
and the billionaires and the governments who are telling you the way they expect you to live. Okay.
00:32:08.640
So you control the narrative and then come up with the problems and the solutions. And everybody's
00:32:15.120
like, yeah, that's, that's a good one. Okay. And if you make people believe that capitalism is the
00:32:21.380
problem, then you can sell a new system, you know, under a solution. Again, you don't believe this is
00:32:29.360
happening. Explain the great reset. Now you also consolidate power. The regulations that crush the
00:32:39.360
small businesses, they don't hurt the billionaires. They eliminate their competition. Let me give you
00:32:45.180
an example. During COVID, why is it COVID was suddenly non-existent at Home Depot? But if you went to
00:32:54.780
Ace Hardware, you're going to die and you're killing grandma. How is that possible? It's not possible.
00:33:03.760
That's collusion by the powerful, the governments, the industry, and the billionaires eliminating their
00:33:10.740
competition. Activism becomes the battering ram that just is clearing the field and making you so you
00:33:18.560
can't even think straight anymore. And it shifts the blame. So by funding anti-billionaire rhetoric,
00:33:25.820
they direct anger away from them and towards the political enemies of the things they're trying to do.
00:33:34.160
So it's not about hating billionaires at all. It's about hating the right billionaires.
00:33:40.400
It's not an attack on wealth. It's about a hostile takeover of your wealth. What did you learn in 2008?
00:33:53.100
Who got rich? The billionaires and the banks. Who had their money destroyed? You did.
00:34:02.260
They're absolutely for bailouts, just not for you. So this is not about an attack on wealth. This is an
00:34:14.200
attack on your wealth. And the saddest part is most people in the streets, they don't even realize
00:34:20.620
they're pawns in somebody else's chess match. They have no idea what they're doing. I mean, listen to
00:34:25.460
them. They don't have any idea. They actually think this is about Donald Trump. Okay, it might be
00:34:32.180
for you, but it's not for the billionaires. It's about the plan. It's why it's happening all over the
00:34:38.780
world. Donald Trump is not the king of the world. I don't know if you know that. Why is this exact same
00:34:43.700
thing happening in Germany and in France and in London and in Singapore? Why? Because it's not about
00:34:50.040
Donald Trump. It's about taking over the system. And you're told you're being fighting, you're fighting
00:34:56.940
against tyranny. You're carrying the banners, but you're carrying the banners of the people who are
00:35:01.920
tightening the chains around your neck. And you don't see it. You scream for no kings while the
00:35:08.460
billionaires are crowning themselves in the boardrooms. You rail against corporate greed while
00:35:14.140
you're marching on behalf of corporate-funded NGOs. You think you're dismantling power, but you're
00:35:21.620
fortifying power. And all of this, by the way, is happening while the networks, these same networks,
00:35:27.440
are lobbying for the policies that erode free speech, weaken individual sovereignty, empowers,
00:35:33.620
you know, these supranational organizations that all of these guys sit on top of.
00:35:40.180
Now, think about that. The same people telling you to dismantle the system
00:35:44.660
are the ones writing the blueprint for a new system. Have you been consulted on that system?
00:35:51.320
You're listening to the best of Glenn Beck. Need a little more? Check out the full show podcast
00:35:58.960
So in the museum next door, our American Journey Museum, we have all of these documents where the
00:36:06.220
government was doing, trying to define what fascism is. I'll have to go through them today and maybe I
00:36:12.100
can bring some stuff in tomorrow. But it was just trying to define what is fascism, okay? Because it
00:36:18.000
was a new thing. It was defined, I think, in 1925 in Italy with Mussolini. And fascist was never
00:36:26.100
really just kind of a lazy insult, you know, hurled across the political debate. It was a warning label
00:36:32.580
for the most dangerous of ideologies, communism and fascism. And those things have devoured liberty
00:36:41.280
and they leave nations in chains. And today, you know, you're seeing it. Fascist, he's a Hitler,
00:36:48.780
he's whatever. It's tossed around so casually that it doesn't mean anything anymore. And fascism,
00:36:55.860
we really need to know what it is because it is playing a role in today's world. I mean,
00:37:03.100
anybody who believes in enforcing the laws and securing our border or defending the constitution
00:37:08.920
today is a fascist. But words mean something. So, if you want to defend freedom, let's first
00:37:18.380
reclaim the meaning of words that describe freedom's enemies. So, here's what fascism actually is. It's
00:37:26.020
not synonymous for a conservative. It's not a synonym for authoritarian. It is a very specific
00:37:34.920
political ideology that came up early 20th century, most famous with Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's
00:37:42.680
Germany. And at its core, fascism is the merger of state and corporate power under a single
00:37:50.680
centralized authority, usually led by a dictator. So, when you start to see corporate power and
00:37:57.840
government power merge into a single centralized authority, that's fascism. And we've been
00:38:05.600
watching it happen for the last 30 years, okay? When individual rights are subordinated to the
00:38:13.980
collective good that is now divined by the state. When dissent is crushed because it's good for the
00:38:21.480
state. When the press is controlled because it's good for the state. When the economy is directed
00:38:29.400
because it's good for the people, i.e. good for the state. When the economy starts to be owned by the
00:38:36.200
government. Those things are fascistic. And the difference between this and communism, communism,
00:38:44.780
you don't have any rights, you don't have any property, okay? It's all the state. Private property
00:38:50.340
under fascism exists, but only if it lives to serve the goals of the regime, okay? So, you'd have all
00:38:59.440
the property you want, but you start acting in a way that the regime doesn't like, that the government
00:39:03.620
says you lose your property, okay? You don't get to keep the stuff you have. Mussolini defended fascism
00:39:11.560
um, and he defined it himself saying it's the merger of state and corporate power.
00:39:18.980
Okay, no. Does that sound familiar at all in today's world? Does that sound familiar? It should. Both sides have been
00:39:25.240
doing it. One of them is sprinting towards it. The other one is just keep shuffling longer and longer down that
00:39:32.720
road. It should sound familiar because, and hear me carefully, the World Economic Forum, when banks
00:39:42.640
and tech companies and federal agencies work together to decide what speech is okay, what speech
00:39:51.180
should be allowed online, or who can get a loan, which businesses are essential and which ones are not
00:39:58.920
essential. That is no longer the free market. That is not capitalism, okay? That is not a constitutional
00:40:05.800
government. That is textbook fascism. So, when the left is saying, no kings, he's a fascist, could we just go
00:40:13.800
back to COVID? What were you willing to do? Can we just go back to, if you don't put a black square
00:40:24.520
on your Instagram or your Twitter feed? When, when the government works with the tech companies to say,
00:40:34.440
this guy who's running for president of the United States, he's a candidate, cannot post anything on
00:40:42.640
social media, that is textbook fascism. Now, Nazism is national socialism. How can it possibly be on the
00:40:54.080
right if it's socialism? In Europe, maybe, but we're different here. The right is not for socialism.
00:41:06.400
And national socialism shares a lot of traits with fascism, but they added the extra little poisonous
00:41:13.720
element of racial supremacy. Now, what is the racial supremacy? Well, the key element here of racial
00:41:23.060
supremacy is, we want to kill all the Jews, okay? So, if you want to say it's a Nazi, you got to be for
00:41:31.760
not making peace with Israel, not making peace in the industry or in the, in the Middle East. You got
00:41:37.760
to be on the side of Hamas saying, we got to kill all the Jews, all right? That's the biggest telltale
00:41:45.140
of a Nazi. They have other things like, they build an Audubon. But the really important part of being a
00:41:52.540
Nazi is, we want to kill all the Jews. Which side is standing with Hamas?
00:42:02.900
Sorry about the hypocrisy this week. Couldn't take it. Then, the regime weaponized propaganda.
00:42:10.980
Did you know, in 2008, Barack Obama removed the law of propaganda in America? In 1945, we all went,
00:42:21.980
okay, the war is over. We don't want propaganda on the American people. We had that law. Barack Obama
00:42:28.500
repealed that law. So, now it still is there. It has to be reinstated.
00:42:34.420
Now, the government can use propaganda on its own people. That is another sign of fascism.
00:42:44.500
Who did that? Donald Trump or Barack Obama? Which one? They demonize entire groups of people
00:42:54.740
as enemies of the state. Now, we're both doing that now, unfortunately.
00:42:59.720
Secondly, they justified control as a means of creating a pure society. Well, what is the
00:43:09.760
difference between that and we got to round these people up and put them into camps because
00:43:13.960
they're never going to let us progress. They're slowing down progress. By the way, there is a symbol,
00:43:20.400
the Indian symbol, the swastika is square, okay? And it sits flat on the ground. If you look at a
00:43:28.540
swastika, it's facing the other way. If it's Indian, it's square, the bottom crossbar is flat to the
00:43:36.820
ground, and it's facing the other direction. The Nazis spun it in another direction, and then Hitler
00:43:42.920
himself said, pitch it. So, it's at an angle. That bottom bar of the swastika comes up. Do you know
00:43:52.260
why? Because it said it looks like it's moving. It shows we're all about progress. So, no one should
00:44:01.720
stand against progress. All of this stuff, if you want to talk about fascism, the hallmarks are really
00:44:10.700
unmistakable. So, let's just define it so we can all move on with our life. Suppression of free speech,
00:44:18.600
politicized justice, the elimination of political parties or opponents. Which side was trying to put
00:44:28.820
the political party or opponent in jail? The indoctrination of youth. Which one is indoctrinating
00:44:38.320
our children in school and taking the rights away from parents? And having the parents actually be
00:44:45.460
something that the school is against and wanting the children to tell them what the parents are doing.
00:44:52.880
That is Nazism. That's fascism. And then this constant scapegoating for power. Dictators, tyrants,
00:45:02.860
whether Nazis, communists, they all have the same playbook throughout history. You got to silence
00:45:09.040
dissent. You have to have censorship. You have to intimidate. You use street thugs that you declare
00:45:16.900
are not part of your movement. But I can't really stop them because they don't really exist. I mean,
00:45:23.940
the brown shirts, Antifa, it's the same story. They're not really real. They're not really organized.
00:45:32.560
They're not part of our movement, but they use them to make progress.
00:45:39.700
Controlling information, state-run media, coordinated propaganda, okay? Using compliant
00:45:45.940
corporations. Undermine the institution, the courts, the legislature. Constitution is bypassed.
00:45:52.980
Courts are reshaped. Who was the one saying we have to have, we have to get rid of this Supreme Court?
00:45:59.440
Court. And who was it? They were saying, nope, nine Supreme Court justices is good.
00:46:05.000
And it's all done to shape power. Then you blame others. Doesn't matter.
00:46:12.460
But the best, the one that always has worked the best is race. We're going to blame it on the Jew.
00:46:19.900
Or we're going to blame it on the black. Or we're going to blame it on the white man.
00:46:25.100
Then it goes deeper. Religious. And ideological. And they're blamed for all of society's ills.
00:46:36.000
Then you merge the power centers. You bring the business, the tech, the military.
00:46:40.080
And it all starts to work as one for centralized control.
00:46:47.580
These are not left or right tactics. These are authoritarian tactics. And as I said last hour,
00:46:57.520
Stu and I are watching for these tactics. We know they can come from the right at any time.
00:47:02.180
We know that Donald Trump is walking a very dangerous line.
00:47:06.900
I don't know how else he should walk it. But the minute he crosses a line,
00:47:12.100
God forbid, I'm going to be on the air saying, that's not good. That's got to stop. That's
00:47:18.300
unconstitutional. Do you hear that from the other side when Biden was doing these things?
00:47:23.660
No. All they're doing is calling somebody a Nazi. They don't actually care about freedom or
00:47:31.360
democracy. They're calling somebody a Nazi without self-examination. You must examine
00:47:37.400
yourself. We are all susceptible to this. Now listen to this. I'm going to take a quick break
00:47:44.260
and then I want to come back with the audio of the Speaker of the House this weekend.
00:47:49.480
The Speaker of the House came out and he said, you know, look, here's what's happening on the left.
00:47:56.900
And you might have heard it before somewhere, but listen to it when we come back and we'll continue.
00:48:03.100
Our definition of words should be redefined or made sure that we understand the definition.
00:48:09.220
So I want you to listen to something and see if you've heard this before.
00:48:13.780
Here is our Speaker of the House on Friday. Listen.
00:48:17.520
They're going to descend on our Capitol for their much anticipated so-called No Kings rally.
00:48:22.560
We refer to it by its more accurate description, the Hate America rally.
00:48:26.600
Okay. And I'm not sure how anybody can refute that.
00:48:30.440
If you think about what's going to happen here tomorrow, you're going to bring together the Marxists,
00:48:35.840
the socialists, the Antifa advocates, the anarchists, and the pro-Hamas wing of the far-left Democrat Party.
00:48:42.860
That is the modern Democratic Party. That's where they've gone.
00:48:47.660
Did you hear this? Have you heard that before? Listen to this.
00:48:51.700
I put this up and said, radicals, Islamists, communists, and socialists will work together
00:48:56.460
against Israel, against capitalism, and work together to overturn stability.
00:49:02.320
This is, this, this is, it's finally being, finally the government has caught up.
00:49:12.340
He is saying they have become the Democratic Party.
00:49:17.540
What the people had a problem with back then was anarchists.
00:49:22.780
I mean, they don't, you know, they don't want a state government.
00:49:25.460
They don't want hierarchies or centralized authority.
00:49:27.840
How could they possibly, communists, they're going to work with the anarchists.
00:49:31.460
They want absolute state control over every aspect of life.
00:49:42.720
I know it's, I know it was for the simple-minded back then, couldn't understand it, but I
00:49:50.680
Because they all share one immediate goal, and that is destroy the existing order.
00:49:57.760
I did a monologue on hour number one of today's podcast.
00:50:06.760
For the same reason, destroy the existing order.
00:50:11.260
However, all of them think they will win in the end, okay?
00:50:15.620
They know they can't achieve their utopia without first tearing down the system that
00:50:19.860
they hate, capitalism, constitution, Western civilization, whatever it is.
00:50:23.720
And once the system is down, that's when real chaos begins.
00:50:29.400
But in the meantime, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:50:34.200
So how do you measure is, are we moving towards tyranny or not?
00:50:41.260
Are constitutional norms being eroded or bypassed?
00:50:45.160
Do you even know what those constitutional norms are?
00:50:51.260
Is my side saying, yes, we should silence voices?
00:50:55.080
Is it being done by the state and or by private actors working hand in glove with the state?
00:51:08.000
Can is a bank saying you can't do business with us because of your political belief.
00:51:18.060
Are laws enforced against political enemies but ignored for political allies?
00:51:25.180
Are public-private partnerships being weaponized to shape behavior or restrict liberty?
00:51:31.860
If the answer is yes, even if people are saying we're doing it for your own safety or for equity or for democracy, liberty is in danger.
00:51:42.520
Remember, when they're enforcing the law, like arresting drug traffickers or gang members or those who people who are entering the country illegally, that's not fascism.
00:51:58.720
What is fascism is when the government decides which laws to enforce based on politics or race, when it punishes thought, when it merges with corporate power to control the people.
00:52:17.460
When you say no king, what does that even mean, no king?
00:52:23.420
I bet they can't even tell you what that means.
00:52:25.920
Well, I mean, somebody's going against the Constitution.
00:52:32.020
The king is appointed by God, and so he has complete control of the land, of the dukes and the earls.
