Transcript

00:00:00.000 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
00:00:02.160 I've been visualizing my match all week.
00:00:04.700 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her backhand side.
00:00:10.680 Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers in the country.
00:00:16.400 Everything was taken care of under one roof, and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.
00:00:20.840 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
00:00:24.300 But you got there on time.
00:00:26.160 Intact Insurance, your auto service ace.
00:00:28.440 Certain conditions apply.
00:00:30.000 There's a few things that we talked about today.
00:00:32.560 First, Cash Patel, Dan Bongino, they came out this weekend and said Epstein absolutely killed himself.
00:00:38.700 They've seen the evidence.
00:00:39.680 And there's some backlash from people who have supported both Bongino and Cash Patel.
00:00:45.420 And I've got a warning on this one.
00:00:47.540 Some questions have to be asked by each of us with this.
00:00:52.700 But it also plays into the boat crash into a bridge, this time in Brooklyn.
00:00:56.660 And then, is there, I mean, is this sabotage with our transportation in general?
00:01:02.500 Is this some sort of a shark bump?
00:01:05.600 It's vital that you hear today's podcast.
00:01:08.340 You might want to get the full podcast to understand the seven cycles, the seven steps towards the destruction of an empire.
00:01:15.620 Because we're in the last phase.
00:01:18.400 And I believe these stories are taking one of those legs out from that table.
00:01:24.580 All right, all this and more on today's podcast.
00:01:27.420 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
00:01:29.840 You gotta love corporate America.
00:01:31.500 You buy a burger and you're funding a climate lobby.
00:01:33.840 You stream a movie and you're paying for a propaganda campaign.
00:01:37.180 Your phone bill?
00:01:39.040 Yeah, that one is helping to fund political movement that thinks your values are dangerous.
00:01:43.500 It's like you're being forced to subscribe to the opposite of everything you believe in with auto pay.
00:01:49.020 Here's a wild idea.
00:01:50.100 What if your phone company actually shared your values?
00:01:53.080 We didn't used to have to have this, but we do now.
00:01:55.320 We've got to start supporting the people who stand with us.
00:01:59.040 What if they used a portion of their profits to defend religious freedom, protect the unborn, support first responders instead of whatever it is the other guys are doing this week?
00:02:08.360 That's Patriot Mobile.
00:02:09.380 They're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
00:02:12.180 They use the same cell towers as the big guys.
00:02:14.220 So you still get great coverage, but your dollars go to fight what you want to be in.
00:02:19.800 And switching, it's easy.
00:02:20.800 They'll even help you keep your number, switch your phone, get a new phone, doesn't matter.
00:02:25.820 Who's your phone company really working for?
00:02:28.500 If it's not you, you know what to do.
00:02:31.700 Make the switch today.

00:02:50.180 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.

00:03:16.380 This isn't a podcast.
00:03:17.640 This is a movement.
00:03:19.380 And you're part of it.
00:03:20.340 A big part of it.
00:03:21.220 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.
00:03:26.320 Rate, review, share.
00:03:27.920 Together, we'll make a difference.
00:03:29.960 And thanks for standing with us.
00:03:31.240 Now let's get to work.
00:03:32.240 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:03:44.360 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:03:46.200 We've been talking about all of the lies that have been told.
00:03:51.620 Who believes anymore that the traditional media is telling you the truth on anything?
00:03:57.900 Who believes that, you know, the media didn't know about Joe Biden?
00:04:08.280 Who believes that Joe Biden's cancer is a new subject?
00:04:15.080 Now that one's hard because that very well could be brand new.
00:04:19.360 But it also, because we don't believe in so many other things, it might have been known when he was still in the White House.
00:04:26.580 We don't know.
00:04:27.900 But do you believe it?
00:04:29.800 I'm not asking you what you know.
00:04:31.520 I'm asking you what you believe.
00:04:33.540 Then Kash Patel comes out, along with Dan Bongino, two very credible people on our side, on Donald Trump's handpick inside team.
00:04:44.420 And they say the Epstein suicide was a suicide.
00:04:51.240 And my first response was, mm-mm.
00:04:53.300 And then I immediately went, but it's coming from these guys.
00:04:56.480 I believe these guys.
00:04:57.220 I know these guys.
00:04:59.940 And so then I started getting into critical thinking.
00:05:02.860 Okay, what would it take for me to believe them?
00:05:06.260 And they just have to show us what they saw.
00:05:09.020 Because that's a rule reversal.
00:05:10.980 They've switched.
00:05:12.800 They said it wasn't a suicide.
00:05:15.700 Now, all I need to know is, what did you see?
00:05:19.440 And show it to me.
00:05:21.780 Okay.
00:05:23.780 Why is this important to use critical thinking?
00:05:26.660 We just went through four of the seven stages of, it's called the seven-stage cycle of civilizational collapse.
00:05:37.940 First, the age of pioneers, that's the Revolutionary War.
00:05:42.820 Then the age of conquest, that's, you know, the expansion out west.
00:05:46.940 The age of commerce, that is really the 20th century, early 20th century.
00:05:53.360 The age of affluence, beginning around the Reagan years, where the decay begins and it becomes about leisure and stuff.
00:06:00.520 Then, fifth, and this is where the last time I read this, I thought we were here, and maybe a little in the sixth, maybe.
00:06:13.580 The age of intellect, elite rule and fragmentation.
00:06:20.300 Experts and technocrats dominate.
00:06:23.200 Reason replaces faith.
00:06:25.200 Society becomes obsessed with process, bureaucracy, identity, and division.
00:06:33.840 People grow disconnected from elites.
00:06:37.220 Populist backlash begins.
00:06:40.040 This is France pre-1789, Weimar Germany in the 1920s, and the U.S. post-2000.
00:06:48.240 The values, relativism, narcissism, hyper-education with moral void.
00:06:57.000 So, technocrats dominate, yes.
00:07:00.100 Reason replaces faith, yes.
00:07:01.940 Society becomes obsessed with process, yes.
00:07:04.560 Bureaucracy, yes.
00:07:06.120 Identity, absolutely.
00:07:07.820 And division.
00:07:09.160 The people grow disconnected from elites, yes.
00:07:11.860 Populist backlash begins, 2016, yes.
00:07:15.860 Then, you get into the sixth stage.
00:07:20.380 The age of decadence, moral decline, and decline of courage.
00:07:26.480 Tell me if you can't check every box on this one.
00:07:29.700 National identity collapses.
00:07:32.640 Hmm, almost there, almost.
00:07:36.240 Immigration without assimilation, yes.
00:07:39.440 Public debt surges, yes.
00:07:42.460 Breads and circuses replace responsibility, yes.
00:07:45.840 Yes, political corruption is normalized, yes.
00:07:49.960 Gender confusion, yes.
00:07:53.180 Family disintegration, yes.
00:07:55.700 Loss of fertility, yes.
00:07:57.740 The use of drugs, yes.
00:07:59.700 Hedonism dominates, yes.
00:08:03.400 That's Rome the third through the fifth century.
00:08:06.660 And is this us today?
00:08:07.940 The values, hedonism, nihilism, and entitlement.
00:08:12.220 I think yes, yes, and yes.
00:08:17.660 Then you get into the last phase.
00:08:21.780 Would you agree, Stu, that we've hit everything else in that?
00:08:26.120 Yeah, we're here at some degree or another where we've hit all of those.
00:08:29.940 The age of decline and collapse, disintegration.
00:08:35.780 There's only two things.
00:08:38.740 Number one, internal distrust, factionalism, and scapegoating.
00:08:45.380 That's the first.
00:08:48.780 All of that is where we are today with those stories.
00:08:54.400 Internal distrust.
00:08:56.340 I don't trust anything, do you?
00:08:59.480 Factionalism.
00:09:01.060 Hello?
00:09:02.780 MAGA?
00:09:04.840 And the, what, anti-MAGA?
00:09:07.340 You're either a racist or an anti-racist.
00:09:10.900 And scapegoating.
00:09:13.660 I don't know.
00:09:15.620 Jake Tapper, how's your book going?
00:09:20.580 I think we're there.
00:09:23.980 The last thing to happen.
00:09:27.480 Currency collapse.
00:09:29.700 Loss of external power.
00:09:31.820 Or invasion.
00:09:32.880 With Donald Trump in power, I don't think we're going to lose the external power or invasion
00:09:40.520 unless our currency collapses.
00:09:43.660 And our currency collapse could happen.
00:09:45.680 Nobody, did you see they downgraded us yet again?
00:09:48.080 Stu, you remember 2008?
00:09:50.260 I'm saying in 2006, 2007.
00:09:52.560 And we will lose our AAA plus status.
00:09:58.300 They will downgrade us.
00:09:59.880 The quote was, never, from every institution in America, never, it will never happen.
00:10:09.500 Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, it will never, ever happen.
00:10:14.460 Well, it happened in like 2009, then it happened again in like 12 and 16, and they just did it
00:10:19.880 again.
00:10:21.840 So currency collapse is on the board.
00:10:24.040 Values of this era, despair, tribalism, and the choice between authoritarianism or anarchy.
00:10:39.140 We're there.
00:10:41.340 Okay, so I don't tell you this to bum you out.
00:10:45.200 I tell you this because there is something you can do.
00:10:48.680 The, that's why I started today's show with those questions.
00:10:55.200 We must, I believe this is a national emergency.
00:10:59.840 And I believe Donald Trump should declare our trust in these institutions a national emergency.
00:11:08.080 We must be transparent.
00:11:10.720 This is why I said, I want cash and I want Dan Bongino to show the American people what changed their minds.
00:11:21.560 I would love a hearing on it and not some big drawn out, you know, hearing in Congress with the budget.
00:11:30.360 I just want to see, I want to see the files.
00:11:33.960 Because internal distrust is a choice.
00:11:41.040 Because if you're saying today, I don't believe Dan Bongino and Cash Patel, which I'm stuck because I do believe them.
00:11:51.440 I just, I think I don't have enough information to go with them on this.
00:11:55.700 I believe in them, but I also believe that Epstein killed himself.
00:12:04.560 Sorry, my throat was killing me.
00:12:05.800 I just like the fact that you crunched the ice as you took the sip.
00:12:10.300 I, I, I believe them.
00:12:12.860 I just believe also that Epstein killed himself, that he didn't hang himself with a paper sheet.
00:12:19.340 Those two don't match.
00:12:20.420 When something doesn't match, you have to go back and say, which one do you actually think is right?
00:12:28.200 I can't because I don't have enough information.
00:12:32.220 But I must do that because trust and distrust at this point is a choice.
00:12:42.380 Now, let me show you where distrust leads.
00:12:44.960 If you don't trust, trust Cash Patel and Dan Bongino, then you can't trust the FBI and the DOJ and anything that they're doing there.
00:12:59.120 That's pretty bad because we just have the biggest reformer in of all time.
00:13:05.900 A guy who said he would reform those two institutions, that he would be transparent.
00:13:12.920 And he hired these two guys and we all cheered for those two guys.
00:13:19.600 So if you don't trust them, if you just immediately go, something's wrong, I don't trust them.
00:13:27.640 Without saying, here, I don't trust that that is true, but I want to see what changed their mind.
00:13:33.280 If you don't trust them, then your next step is, well, does Donald Trump know?
00:13:40.160 And if he doesn't do something about them on something this egregious, they're clearly covering something up, then I got a problem with Donald Trump.
00:13:50.480 Where does this end?
00:13:52.080 This ends in guillotines in France.
00:13:56.920 This is what happens.
00:13:58.080 You betrayed the revolution.
00:14:01.200 No, I didn't.
00:14:02.540 That's just not true.
00:14:09.400 So the good news is, this is up to you.
00:14:13.720 These things can be reversed.
00:14:16.200 They just haven't been, but they can be reversed.
00:14:18.900 For instance, why would our currency collapse?
00:14:22.200 Because we're being downgraded.
00:14:24.240 Why are we being downgraded?
00:14:25.540 Because we're spending too much.
00:14:26.760 Why are we spending too much?
00:14:28.360 Because the people in Washington won't listen to the American people.
00:14:32.920 They have no courage.
00:14:35.500 Back to stage six.
00:14:39.260 Decline of courage.
00:14:41.080 That means we need more people who have courage that will say,
00:14:45.940 this is the end of the republic if we don't do certain things.
00:14:54.240 So where will you stand today?
00:14:56.760 Will you dedicate yourself to not changing what you believe, per se,
00:15:03.800 but at least demanding critical thinking answers for good critical thinking questions?
00:15:13.440 I don't believe you.
00:15:17.600 Thus, I am asking you to produce and have a conversation with the American people to show us what changed your mind.
00:15:28.320 Show us the facts.
00:15:33.020 We must restore trust.
00:15:35.600 Relief factor.
00:15:38.760 You used to think missing a baseball game wasn't a big deal.
00:15:41.700 I mean, there's always another one, right?
00:15:43.360 Then your son hit his first home run and you weren't there.
00:15:46.080 Not because you didn't want to be, but because you couldn't stand for that long.
00:15:48.760 You couldn't sit for that long on the bleachers.
00:15:50.780 Couldn't move without feeling like somebody was digging a razor into your lower back.
00:15:54.960 That's when you knew pain wasn't just stealing from me.
00:15:58.860 It was stealing from him as well.
00:16:01.300 Maybe you've thought about trying relief factor, but you don't expect much.
00:16:04.920 I mean, four key ingredients, all natural, drug-free.
00:16:08.380 But what if it works for you?
00:16:09.780 What if baseball games and everything else you want to do was in reach again?
00:16:13.140 If you're living with the aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement,

00:16:36.000 Now, back to the podcast.
00:16:37.680 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:16:41.820 Well, hello, Stu.
00:16:44.140 Glenn, what a time to be alive.
00:16:46.120 It really is.
00:16:46.980 It's great to be alive.
00:16:48.540 Can't wait to see how all this works out.
00:16:50.280 Yeah, it's a fascinating film that I'm not engaged in and doesn't really affect me.
00:16:54.420 At least that's what I'm convincing myself of.
00:16:55.840 That's right.
00:16:56.420 It's a lot easier.
00:16:57.680 You're just sitting in a theater.
00:16:58.760 Yeah, that's it.
00:16:59.420 What's going on?
00:17:00.300 All this stuff keeps happening.
00:17:00.960 We're just watching this for entertainment purposes.
00:17:03.420 We're like, wow, let's learn from this society.
00:17:05.760 Imagine what's going to be on the next episode.
00:17:07.740 Wow.
00:17:07.960 That's how I feel.
00:17:09.700 All right.
00:17:10.260 Well, what was on last episode was another giant ship hitting another giant bridge.
00:17:18.060 What is happening?
00:17:19.820 Now, I've never seen this in my lifetime.
00:17:22.780 Okay.
00:17:23.700 I mean, I'm 62.
00:17:26.140 I've seen it happen now two times, and it's been recently.
00:17:33.540 I don't know about you, but I think there's a problem.
00:17:39.980 Now, what's happening?
00:17:41.600 Two ships, two major American bridges, less than, what, a year and a half apart from each other?
00:17:48.000 Both ships lose power.
00:17:52.680 Now, we've seen this happen before.
00:17:56.940 We've seen other ships lose power.
00:17:59.860 I'll get into that here in a second.
00:18:01.680 Recently, Baltimore, March 2024, Francis Scott Key Bridge collapses into the river because a Singaporean cargo ship, the Dali, loses propulsion, slams into the support column.
00:18:16.360 Six workers are killed.
00:18:18.100 The whole country watches in shock, and you're like, wow, that doesn't happen.
00:18:22.440 Well, then again, on Saturday, it happens again.
00:18:27.000 A Mexican Navy tall ship loses power while departing New York Harbor.
00:18:33.060 It drifts straight into the Brooklyn Bridge.
00:18:35.300 Two sailors die.
00:18:36.740 Dozens were injured.
00:18:38.160 The masks shatter like matchsticks.
00:18:40.200 The Brooklyn Bridge, an icon of American resolve, shakes, but apparently everything is okay.
00:18:45.760 Now, first of all, our condolences to all of those who were on the ship that lost their lives or were injured.
00:18:53.480 We feel for you.
00:18:54.440 That was an awful.
00:18:56.420 They were all standing there on the masts.
00:18:58.700 Can you imagine standing there going, we're not stopping.
00:19:00.920 We're not stopping.
00:19:01.680 I got to get down.
00:19:03.580 And then when the ship, when the masts go down, you saw them.
00:19:06.480 They were all entangled in the ropes, and they were just hanging there.
00:19:09.700 Some of them upside down.
00:19:11.320 It's nuts.
00:19:12.260 Okay, so the reason for that one, we're told, again, power.
00:19:18.740 Okay.
00:19:19.860 Okay.
00:19:20.520 Maybe once.
00:19:21.660 Maybe twice.
00:19:23.660 Both on foreign vessels.
00:19:25.960 Both involved with high-profile American infrastructure.
00:19:29.760 Now, we've been talking the last hour about trust.
00:19:36.660 And I'm sorry.
00:19:39.120 I just don't trust that this is, if this is what it is, then we should stop having computer systems run everything on these ships.
00:19:46.480 Okay, that's the only reason why you could say, well, no, we just put in these new computers that are running these ships,
00:19:58.100 and nobody's ever seen computers run things like ships before, and we don't know if they're safe and stable yet.
00:20:07.660 Then don't put them in the ship.
00:20:09.440 If there's a problem with that, why don't we know there's, I can't use my phone on an airplane.
00:20:16.980 Why?
00:20:18.620 Why?
00:20:19.960 Because the FAA couldn't come up with a reason we had a plane crash.
00:20:24.600 I think it was in Long Island years ago.
00:20:26.520 And they're like, bah, cell phones.
00:20:31.400 And we've been being told to turn off our cell phones and everything else because it interferes with the navigation systems on the plane.
00:20:41.860 It does what?
00:20:43.700 Excuse me?
00:20:44.960 What does it do?
00:20:46.580 Nobody believes that.
00:20:47.880 Nobody believes that.
00:20:49.340 Okay?
00:20:49.700 That's not true.
00:20:50.720 Just not true.
00:20:51.900 How come if you've ever flown in a private plane, they don't tell you that?
00:20:56.520 Is there something special in private planes that makes their super, super navigational systems so much better than it is on a commercial airliner?
00:21:06.440 No!
00:21:07.160 It's a lie.
00:21:08.520 It's a lie.
00:21:11.280 So, what's wrong with these ships?
00:21:14.600 Do you remember the ship that also lost power and then made like a loop-de-loop and then slammed into another ship?
00:21:22.340 It was, I think, off the coast of maybe Singapore.
00:21:25.260 Do you remember that?
00:21:25.800 Happened about three, four years ago?
00:21:27.860 It was like this insane thing where we lost power and navigation.
00:21:32.160 And it just, I mean, it was two like large, like freighters.
00:21:36.840 No, I think it was a freighter and a naval ship.
00:21:39.280 And it just pounded into the naval ship.
00:21:42.240 We lost power and lost navigation.
00:21:45.160 Okay.
00:21:45.460 Okay.
00:21:45.820 Okay.
00:21:46.260 There is something happening in the pit of my history section of my stomach that says, hmm, this isn't, this isn't right.
00:21:58.420 Warning bell.
00:21:59.760 Okay.
00:21:59.960 What history would tell me is these are shark bumps.
00:22:06.640 Okay.
00:22:07.200 You know what a shark bump is?
00:22:08.440 I worked with Anderson Cooper one time and we were sitting, getting ready to, he was doing his show on CNN.
00:22:17.400 I was doing my show on CNN headline news, which is strangely has better numbers now than any show on CNN currently.
00:22:26.300 But anyway, so I'm getting ready to do my show on CNN headline news and Anderson walks in and he was always very kind, you know, to me and we had a nice relationship.
00:22:39.880 Yeah.
00:22:40.080 He always was.
00:22:40.740 Yeah.
00:22:40.880 And, uh, and he said, what'd you do this weekend?
00:22:45.160 And I said, I took my kids, I don't know, to the park or whatever.
00:22:49.160 I said, what'd you do?
00:22:50.000 And he said, uh, I went shark diving off the coast of Australia.
00:22:56.300 I was like, he had a lot of those weird stories.
00:22:58.540 Yeah.
00:22:58.660 And I was like, oh, okay.
00:23:00.640 Yeah.
00:23:00.980 I haven't done that.
00:23:02.240 I said, why would you do that?
00:23:03.760 And he said, well, we were making a, we were going to make a doc on it and then something happened.
00:23:07.980 And he said, so, uh, I just, you know, I wanted to be in the cage and have the sharks, you know, to see the sharks.
00:23:15.760 And I'm like, okay, I could live my whole life without ever doing that.
00:23:20.840 And he said, then when they pulled the cage up, I'm, you know, coming out.
00:23:25.080 And he said, it was pretty wild when you were in the cage.
00:23:27.300 And he said, then I see the captain of the ship as the cage is coming up, he's getting ready to dive.
00:23:32.740 And I said, what are you, what are you, what are you doing?
00:23:34.420 And he said, I'm going to go dive and just be with the sharks for a minute.
00:23:40.660 Okay.
00:23:41.500 What the hell's wrong with these people?
00:23:43.040 All right.
00:23:43.400 Maybe it's all the blood is constantly, it can't get to their feet or anything.
00:23:46.700 It's just all coagulated in their head because they're upside down.
00:23:50.360 What is wrong with you people?
00:23:52.520 So, uh, he says, well, I'd like to go with you.
00:23:56.920 And he said, oh, this is only for experienced divers.
00:23:59.600 And Anderson said, I'm an experienced diver.
00:24:01.580 I, you know, got all my license, everything else.
00:24:03.880 And he's like, oh, okay.
00:24:05.380 So come on, we can come with me.
00:24:07.760 Now, Anderson didn't have any of those things.
00:24:10.780 He's not an experienced diver.
00:24:12.380 This was his first time.
00:24:13.940 He puts on everything and he goes off the back of the ship with the, the captain.
00:24:21.360 Just before they do that, the captain says, by the way, they're going to come up to you
00:24:25.040 and they're going to bump into you.
00:24:27.740 Do not move because if you do, they'll eat you.
00:24:36.300 And he said, I'm sorry, what?
00:24:38.500 He said, don't move.
00:24:39.720 They bump into things to see the reaction.
00:24:43.780 If you're just a floating, you know, bag of something they don't want to eat, it won't move.
00:24:51.480 But if you move, they'll eat you.
00:24:55.120 He said, oh, okay.
00:24:56.820 All right.
00:24:57.720 Now, this is, again, the time that I take off, you know, the, the eye mask.
00:25:02.420 And I'm like, okay, have a good time.
00:25:04.620 I'm staying here.
00:25:07.060 He goes down and the sharks do just that.
00:25:10.280 And he's, I'm sitting here, you know, listening to him and he's like, oh, you wouldn't believe
00:25:13.720 what it's like to have one of these great whites just come up and just bump you in the chest.
00:25:17.200 And I'm like, nope, nope.
00:25:18.760 I can't imagine that.
00:25:20.260 I may not have moved, but there would have been poop in the water everywhere.
00:25:24.820 Okay.
00:25:26.440 So how did I get here?
00:25:30.380 So I think what's happening is these are shark bumps.
00:25:35.300 These are, I don't know, a country, multiple countries.
00:25:41.360 I don't know, can we collapse the navigational system on ships?
00:25:48.400 Can we cover it up enough?
00:25:51.620 And can we take control of ships and just let people in the upper end know, oh boy, look
00:26:01.140 what they're doing.
00:26:02.140 I think this is, that's what this looks like.
00:26:05.000 This looks like the opening act to a war, a different kind of war, but a war, one that
00:26:11.840 we're not even allowed to call a war yet.
00:26:15.280 And what chills me the most is the silence on this.
00:26:19.160 The mainstream media didn't blink on this.
00:26:23.040 Government assures us nothing to see here.
00:26:25.680 Same experts that tell you, you know, that men can have babies are telling you it's just
00:26:31.080 a coincidence.
00:26:31.600 I'm sorry, I don't, can you show me exactly how this is happening so many times?
00:26:38.160 Because maybe it is.
00:26:40.360 But if that's true, maybe we should stop with that kind of navigation system on these ships.
00:26:48.080 Maybe it's not ready for prime time.
00:26:51.100 And why does it always seem to lose power in navigation right around an American bridge?
00:26:56.140 Right around a naval ship, a U.S. naval ship, or two U.S. bridges.
00:27:05.380 Why is that happening?
00:27:08.340 Now there's a shipping giant, I guess it's Maersk, M-A-E-R-S-K, right?
00:27:15.400 Maersk.
00:27:16.640 Shipping giant had its entire global system shut down by ransomware in 2017.
00:27:23.180 Did you know that?
00:27:23.920 The U.S. Navy has have had ships colliding multiple times since 2016.
00:27:32.040 Again, what was blamed?
00:27:34.140 Steering loss or loss of power.
00:27:36.860 Ask the port of Los Angeles, which just last year was under daily cyber attack from foreign
00:27:42.960 adversaries.
00:27:44.360 You don't need a missile to hit us anymore.
00:27:46.740 You need somebody with a keyboard and some bad code.
00:27:54.020 And let me ask you this.
00:27:56.360 What kind of war doesn't even need intent, just capability?
00:27:59.440 Because when infrastructure is digitized, when our bridges, our tugboats, our radar systems, our engine controls, all depend on centralized code, it doesn't take a villain in a cape.
00:28:12.480 It takes a firmware update or a rogue packet of data from a USB stick.
00:28:18.660 Remember, before 9-11, the intelligence community had over 40 separate warnings that something big was coming.
00:28:28.220 They just didn't connect the dots.
00:28:30.760 Well, we have several dots here, and they all seem to lead to the same thing.
00:28:38.380 Power or steering loss.
00:28:41.160 Somebody should solve that if it's a software or a hardware problem.
00:28:49.360 Solve that.
00:28:50.300 How come I'm not hearing about that?
00:28:52.880 You can't just keep saying, yep, that steering loss, and then we just accept it.
00:28:57.080 No, this is national security.
00:29:01.400 Is anybody serious about national security?
00:29:05.960 Anybody?
00:29:07.220 Now, I'm not saying this was an attack.
00:29:11.160 But this is exactly what it would look like if it was.
00:29:17.100 This looks like a shark attack or a shark bump, except this time, the shark is seeing how you're going to move.
00:29:25.860 By us not moving, it makes that foreign shark or whoever might be doing it more apt to eat us.
00:29:35.240 If we move and harden things, it makes them less apt to eat us.
00:29:41.740 So in a shark bump with a real shark, you don't move.
00:29:44.780 In this particular scenario, where it could be a foreign adversary giving us a shark bump, you must move.
00:29:55.440 And I haven't seen anything yet.
00:29:58.580 We need cyber forensics on all of those boats, independent experts, not just the insurers or foreign governments, independent experts.
00:30:10.120 We need an immediate national audit of our port, bridge, and maritime infrastructure vulnerabilities to electromagnetic or cyber interference.
00:30:20.180 And we need people to at least start investigating the possibility of hybrid sabotage.
00:30:30.780 I believe we're being tested.
00:30:33.780 Are we going to do the same thing with the 40 things that happened before 9-11 and not connect the dots?
00:30:40.780 Or are we going to go, you know, it might not be that, but we should be all over this.
00:30:49.200 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:30:55.500 A couple of things.
00:30:56.620 Is it more stormy here than usually at this time?
00:31:00.440 It seems like it.
00:31:01.600 Global warming is affecting us all.
00:31:03.320 Glenn.
00:31:03.900 I know, I know, I know, I know that.
00:31:05.740 Last night I was sitting in a theater.
00:31:09.080 My daughter was doing a final performance of something in this theater that she's been working with.
00:31:16.420 And I get a text.
00:31:21.160 A massive storm is headed your way.
00:31:24.940 I just put the map down.
00:31:26.760 You're the X.
00:31:28.380 Here's the giant storm with multiple funnels.
00:31:33.140 And I'm like, well, I mean, I like funnel cake.
00:31:36.280 Is that the same thing?
00:31:37.420 It's not.
00:31:38.840 It's not.
00:31:39.640 We were right in the path.
00:31:41.500 And I'm sitting there and I show it to Tanya and she went, hmm, that's not good.
00:31:47.120 And I'm like, no, it's not good.
00:31:50.100 What do we do?
00:31:51.140 I'm not equipped to live in places where there's tornadoes.
00:31:54.500 They freak me out a little bit.
00:31:55.940 Because they can come down at any time and just suck you into the air.
00:31:59.640 Yeah.
00:32:00.460 It's unlike, you know, like a hurricane you see coming for a while.
00:32:03.700 Yeah, a long time.
00:32:04.220 Like a blizzard, you know what's going on.
00:32:06.460 It's more like living in California.
00:32:08.780 Earthquake is the other one.
00:32:09.880 Yeah.
00:32:10.360 Earthquakes and mudslides.
00:32:11.720 Those things.
00:32:12.900 Those and tornadoes.
00:32:14.440 Tornadoes should be in California.
00:32:16.320 Just all those really unpredictable things.
00:32:18.720 Yeah.
00:32:19.160 I mean, you get the great weather most of the time.
00:32:21.480 And then you have to deal with one or two really weird things.
00:32:23.780 Yeah.
00:32:24.140 Right.
00:32:24.960 This is just weird.
00:32:26.320 It's just weird.
00:32:27.100 I didn't know what to do.
00:32:27.940 And luckily, I get another text like 15 minutes later.
00:32:32.300 And he writes to me, says that to me.
00:32:34.980 And I'm like, what should we do?
00:32:38.560 And then I get a text.
00:32:40.400 This is where you should go in case it gets a little crazy.
00:32:44.660 Rain should start in 15 minutes.
00:32:46.300 And so he's like, you know, go to the Sheraton Hotel, you know, two blocks down.
00:32:52.120 I'm like, oh, oh, oh.
00:32:53.860 Now, should I?
00:32:54.640 When do we do that?
00:32:56.400 When do we do that?
00:32:57.820 And Tanya just said, shh, quiet.
00:33:00.620 I'm like, and I keep looking behind me.
00:33:04.240 I could see the door, you know, and I could see out the door.
00:33:07.220 And 15 minutes later, it starts to rain.
00:33:10.140 And I'm like, okay, okay, all right, all right.
00:33:11.940 I mean, I know.
00:33:12.800 But, I mean, really?
00:33:15.180 I mean, screw the kids.
00:33:16.720 We should get to a Sheraton, don't you think?
00:33:18.620 We should get.
00:33:19.240 There's got to be some shelter at the Sheraton.
00:33:21.560 I mean, she's not going to want to leave.
00:33:23.760 She's performing.
00:33:24.440 She's doing a great job.
00:33:25.780 Maybe we should go.
00:33:26.500 So there's something left of the family.
00:33:28.540 That's brave of you.
00:33:30.800 I'm sure you want to do whatever you want with the kids.
00:33:32.440 Just leave me alone.
00:33:33.560 You know, leave me alone.
00:33:34.140 You selflessly.
00:33:35.540 Yeah.
00:33:36.000 To protect the family.
00:33:37.260 To protect the family.
00:33:37.960 We're going to leave the performance.
00:33:39.700 And it's, I mean, honestly, it's a little like, you know, the continuation thing that they do at the State of the Union.
00:33:45.780 I was the one to be the designated survivor.
00:33:48.920 I volunteered.
00:33:50.160 I'm like, hey, I will skip the show and be the designated survivor.
00:33:55.580 But nope.
00:33:56.760 Nope.
00:33:57.280 Nope.
00:33:57.860 Wife wouldn't let me do it.
00:33:58.920 We actually had someone in our extended show family have in the middle of one of these tornadoes.
00:34:05.120 Like that giant tree fell through their house.
00:34:08.280 Who?
00:34:08.900 Last night?
00:34:09.740 Yeah.
00:34:10.140 From this recent batch of stories.
00:34:11.640 I don't know that they want it necessarily discussed on a national radio with personal details.
00:34:15.260 Why?
00:34:15.520 What's going on with them in the tree?
00:34:17.800 I don't think anything.
00:34:19.480 Why wouldn't they talk about it?
00:34:20.700 If they're not doing anything wrong, why wouldn't they talk about it?
00:34:22.820 Well, I mean, I just have not confirmed that they want it talked about.
00:34:26.320 But I will say that, you know, it's just shocking when you hear that.
00:34:30.060 It's like someone you know.
00:34:32.400 What's so weird is if you've ever seen where a tornado goes through, it will like skip houses.
00:34:37.740 It doesn't take out, usually, it doesn't take out the whole neighborhood.
00:34:40.500 It'll take out like part of your house, all of your neighbor's house, three doors down.
00:34:46.000 It's all fine.
00:34:47.080 Then across the street, a house is completely gone.
00:34:49.660 I mean, it's just weird.
00:34:51.520 It's so random.
00:34:53.120 We had a tornado that hit here in Dallas last year.
00:34:58.480 And it was going, it was like close to like where my kids go to school.
00:35:03.480 And I'm like, I know they're at school.
00:35:05.280 And I'm like looking at this thing and I just, you just feel so helpless.
00:35:08.180 You're just looking at this, the trail of it is going like directly like near where someone you love is.
00:35:13.580 Yeah.
00:35:13.880 And not to mention, it was right after school started.
00:35:15.980 So, I knew my wife had just dropped them off where she, like, yeah, but is she at school?
00:35:21.640 Is she on the way back?
00:35:22.540 Is she driving through the path of it right now?
00:35:24.540 You have no freaking idea.
00:35:26.040 I know.
00:35:26.320 And it's so devastating if it happens to drop right on you.
00:35:29.660 I mean, it's over.
00:35:31.040 He said, this guy who called me, he's one of the protection team.
00:35:35.280 So, he's texting me and I said, well, where would we go?
00:35:40.220 And he said, whatever you do, just drive north.
00:35:42.580 And I'm like, dude, I don't know which direction is north.
00:35:46.280 What are you talking about?
00:35:47.460 It's nighttime.
00:35:48.100 Who are you talking to?
00:35:49.600 Yeah, just drive north.
00:35:51.420 Oh, okay.
00:35:52.720 I'll look at the stars, which I can't even see or read.
00:35:58.000 Jesus, for the love of me.
00:35:59.460 They act as if we have abilities and skills outside of this room.
00:36:02.880 No abilities, none, none.
00:36:05.640 We're the first to be eaten.
00:36:07.220 Now, let me ask you one other thing.
00:36:08.500 My other daughter, she's having a birthday today.
00:36:11.260 She's 34.
00:36:12.240 Wow.
00:36:13.960 And I just sent her, you know, a note, a text, just happy birthday, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:36:22.260 And then, you know, as a joke, because I don't know what it means, I sent her the salsa dancer.
00:36:29.560 The emoji.
00:36:29.960 Yeah, this is a family text, and everybody is sending all these emojis, and I don't know what any of them mean.
00:36:35.700 But I always like the salsa dancer, because I really don't know what that one means.
00:36:39.320 I'm like, what are we going dancing?
00:36:40.740 I don't know.
00:36:41.580 I don't know what it means.
00:36:42.620 And there's a male and a female salsa dancer.
00:36:45.020 I only sent her the male salsa dancer.
00:36:46.860 So, after I hit send, I realized, you know, the eggplant and the peach are not representing fruits and vegetables, you know?
00:36:59.720 What did you just send your daughter?
00:37:00.980 What did I just send my daughter?
00:37:02.320 Do you know what the salsa dancer means?
00:37:04.180 I've never in my, I think, in my entire life, sent an emoji.
00:37:09.220 Good for you.
00:37:10.000 I don't think I've ever sent one.
00:37:11.620 Yeah, good for you.
00:37:12.580 So, I don't know what any of them mean, although I've seen the peach and the eggplant described.
00:37:18.160 Yeah, okay.
00:37:19.360 Sarah, please tell me I didn't send something weird.
00:37:22.440 As a parent, you don't just go swinging emojis in text messages.
00:37:26.720 That's step one.
00:37:27.720 That's right.
00:37:28.120 You don't go, like, the emoji slot machine is not a game you should be playing.
00:37:33.160 Definitely not.
00:37:34.100 But I did look it up, and it came up with the female.
00:37:37.640 And it says, she represents fun, freedom, a zest for life, and a positive affirmation like, great.
00:37:44.380 Okay, what is the male?
00:37:46.080 I don't know, but.
00:37:47.000 Yeah, because it's sex with children.
00:37:53.120 Probably.
00:37:53.520 Probably.
00:37:55.360 My luck.
00:37:56.540 Yes.
00:37:56.920 Yes.
00:37:57.240 What is the male salsa dancer?
00:37:59.500 I'm very concerned about this now, because I didn't realize that you said the, you'd think
00:38:04.240 you'd said the female.
00:38:05.180 Why would you say the male salsa dancer?
00:38:06.780 Because I was the salsa dancer.
00:38:08.380 I was like, ah, celebrate.
00:38:12.880 Well, it says it symbolizes dancing, celebration, having a good time, and expressing joy or excitement.
00:38:18.840 Okay.
00:38:19.360 Also, keep away from children.
00:38:20.980 I thought you were, so your plan here was to say, ah, celebrate.
00:38:28.520 Celebrate, yeah.
00:38:29.120 I'm the salsa dancer.
00:38:30.680 I'm telling you to celebrate right now.
00:38:32.840 That was your plan.
00:38:34.120 We're going to celebrate.
00:38:35.120 Okay.
00:38:35.440 I like it.
00:38:36.400 I think you should, every day, pick a new emoji to send to one of your children, and let's
00:38:41.920 see how long it goes until it blows up into a national scandal.
00:38:46.500 I don't think we can get through two weeks.
00:38:51.900 Oh, it's not good.
00:38:53.320 It's not good.
00:38:53.900 No.
00:38:53.960 You don't, you never send random emojis to your children.
00:38:57.320 Yeah.
00:38:57.640 Because you never know what could come down the, that could be really ugly.
00:39:03.400 I'm glad you survived that one, though.
00:39:05.440 Thank you.
00:39:05.860 Do you think she thought you were sending a message that you understood?
00:39:12.540 So, well, no, because here's what I, here's what I wrote, because at first, I really actually
00:39:18.140 did send the salsa dancer because, I don't know what it means.
00:39:20.800 It kind of seems fun.
00:39:21.460 I said, happy birthday, Hannah, salsa dancer.
00:39:24.740 I don't know what the salsa dancer means, but salsa seems like the right message today.
00:39:30.220 I like that.
00:39:34.180 Spicy fun.
00:39:35.020 Spicy fun.
00:39:36.140 Well, not spicy in that way.
00:39:37.760 No, not that way.
00:39:38.580 No, definitely not.
00:39:39.300 It is a spicy condiment, though.
00:39:40.900 Yes.
00:39:42.220 Let's choose another word.
00:39:46.000 I'm not the one that said it, weirdo.
00:39:47.860 Okay.
00:39:48.200 All right.
00:39:49.380 Let me play Keir Starmer, the prime minister from England.
00:39:56.000 A normal transition here, by the way.
00:39:57.940 Salsa dancer emoji to Keir Starmer.
00:40:00.560 What show are you even listening to?
00:40:02.380 I'm angry at the listeners for tuning in at this point.
00:40:08.120 It's all the people.
00:40:09.300 I mean, and you know this.
00:40:10.480 If you're listening, you're going to say to me, preach it, brother.
00:40:14.040 But it's all the people who have just given up on life.
00:40:17.640 They've just been like, there's no way to solve any of these things.
00:40:21.140 20 minutes ago, I sent a salsa dancer to my kid.
00:40:25.400 It's over anyway.
00:40:26.860 Let's turn on the Glenn Beck program.
00:40:29.420 All right.
00:40:29.900 So, Keir Starmer, he comes out and he's talking about immigration system permits abuse.
00:40:38.880 Listen to this.
00:40:39.900 So, when you have an immigration system that seems almost designed to permit abuse, that encourages some businesses to bring in lower paid workers rather than invest in our young people,
00:40:53.700 or simply one that is sold by politicians to the British people on an entirely false premise,
00:41:01.160 then you're not championing growth.
00:41:04.400 You're not championing justice or however else people defend the status quo.
00:41:09.400 So, you're actually contributing to the forces that are slowly pulling our country apart.
00:41:17.320 This is the socialist.
00:41:20.500 This is the socialist.
00:41:22.300 Let me just say it again.
00:41:23.340 This is the socialist prime minister.
00:41:28.780 He goes on to say that this is what the average person has been asking for.
00:41:35.000 Now, I don't know British politics at all.
00:41:38.580 But if this were a Democrat here saying this and, like, the leader of, you know, the people who have been pulling us apart with the immigration stuff, I wouldn't believe that.
00:41:48.740 But that's the first time I think he said anything like that.
00:41:51.340 And he's like, we're going to, we're going to, we're changing things because this can't stand anymore.
00:41:56.220 Because, you know, the people who are English are not getting jobs.
00:42:00.200 And it's all of these, these people who are not assimilating into society.
00:42:08.000 And he said, and they're about to go into a fifth year.
00:42:12.760 And in five years, you can become a citizen if you've been there for five years.
00:42:16.240 And he said, we're going to make that 10 years.
00:42:18.820 So, okay.
00:42:20.100 Now, what are you going to do in nine years?
00:42:24.960 You're going to change it again to 15 years?
00:42:27.280 I mean, because what he said was, because once they're citizens, they can go on the dole.
00:42:33.620 You're giving them everything.
00:42:35.220 You're giving them houses and food and everything else.
00:42:38.360 What do you mean on the dole?
00:42:39.520 It gets, it gets better than that?
00:42:41.940 What were you saying earlier about empires collapsing?
00:42:48.040 Wasn't there a, I think it was a step that describes this exact process.
00:42:53.000 Salsa dancer.
00:42:55.720 What's crazy about this is this shows how dead this global movement really is.
00:43:09.020 Now, I'm not saying he's going to do anything, but he's at least now having to recognize and speak the language of his citizens, whether he does anything or not.
00:43:21.460 You know, they were just last week.
00:43:23.000 They were trying to, you know, Hey, how can we put, how can we undo Brexit?
00:43:27.440 Um, you know, I don't trust these guys at all, but at least somebody is speaking the voice of the streets, at least at this level.
00:43:40.020 Now, if you're a politician, especially one from the EU or Great Britain, you most likely are.
00:43:46.760 Yeah, well, I can say that, but I don't have to mean it or do anything, but that is eventually going to come undone too as well.
00:43:53.860 And it's going to happen soon, sooner rather than later.
00:43:57.080 Just thought it was worth pointing out.
