The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Danny Burmawi ｜ 9⧸16⧸26

00:00:00.000 The Room at the Waldorf. You're going to understand that whole story and where you should stand, in my opinion, where you should stand, where I stand on this whole thing.

00:00:14.000 Also, we speak with Danny Burmawi. He is a guy who was a Muslim, converted over to Christianity, and is now speaking out and saying, we need to be proud we're infidels. Wake up.

00:00:25.840 and James Tallarico, of Tallarico, Texas, all on today's podcast.

00:00:40.180 You're listening to the Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:48.360 All right.

00:00:50.540 All right.

00:00:51.340 Let me start with this audio from AOC.

00:00:56.160 It's cut four, I think.

00:00:57.360 Comes on the radio while you're driving along.

00:01:00.080 Are you changing the channels?

00:01:01.480 I am.

00:01:02.180 You are?

00:01:02.740 Yeah.

00:01:03.380 Why is that?

00:01:04.520 I think that what we've seen, especially, it's not just what has happened with the act

00:01:13.560 and not just in removing Macklemore from the lineup, but when you see what Robert Kraft

00:01:18.140 did to line up all of the stadiums to censor speech in that one specific way it's become

00:01:27.140 clear that this is not just about one music artist or two music artists but this is about

00:01:33.860 how just a handful of stadium owners and the elite can prevent an entire massive

00:01:41.760 um issue in this case the genocide in gaza but it doesn't stop there it could be speaking out

00:01:49.340 about ai it could be speaking out about any issue that you can now just get a handful of stadium

00:01:55.540 owners to ensure that an entire person's career can be jeopardized if they speak out about any

00:02:02.560 issue so it's like cancel culture is that what you're saying aoc it's cancel culture

00:02:09.200 yeah it sucks doesn't it when you can get a handful of groups together and they can put 0.95

00:02:17.380 pressure on let's say i don't know advertisers and get people pulled from the air kind of sucks 0.97

00:02:23.960 doesn't it you say my gosh i'm gonna lose my mind i'm sorry blood might chew through my eyes

00:02:31.300 at any moment i can't take the hypocrisy i'm sorry i'm sorry i know everybody always says

00:02:38.400 it's the hypocrisy, but it really is the hypocrisy. How they can clearly see it on one side and not

00:02:44.480 the other. So let me tell you what's really going on here. Ed Sheeran is playing Philadelphia on

00:02:53.220 Saturday. As of right now, he doesn't have an opening act. He was playing at MetLife. His

00:03:00.520 opener, the rapper Macklemore, told the crowd that he joined the tour so he could stand in stadiums

00:03:07.580 all across America and say two words, free Palestine. I don't know. Me, I want to go to a

00:03:14.500 concert. I'm paying to go see a concert, especially not going to pay to see the warm-up band. But

00:03:22.600 when I go, I want to forget all of this stuff. Can you leave me alone? I don't want you to talk

00:03:30.920 about Donald Trump and how great he is. I don't want to hear any of it. Play music.

00:03:36.140 but maybe that's just me maybe everybody who's going to see Ed Sheeran is like oh I gotta hear 1.00

00:03:42.720 about free Palestine I gotta hear about how wrong the Jews are oh my gosh so then he played his 0.94

00:03:49.160 protest song written for students who took over a building at Columbia images of gauze on the 0.99

00:03:56.700 screens, and he did it the next night. So now Robert Kraft, who owns the Patriots and Gillette

00:04:06.060 Stadium, it's wholly independent. He owns it. He barred Macklemore from the building. Macklemore

00:04:13.220 says Kraft then rallied other stadium owners behind an ultimatum. He says, you don't play here.

00:04:21.140 Okay. I know Robert Kraft has a right to do it because he owns it. So it's not a free speech

00:04:30.200 thing. If you own it, I don't have to have you play here. You know, I own this building. I'm

00:04:37.480 not doing drag shows here. I'm sorry. And you can't make me. I own the studios. Sorry. Not

00:04:43.900 going to do it. Is that harming your freedom of speech? No. What you're saying is if a private

00:04:49.360 person owns private property, you don't actually own your private property. And I'm sorry, I do.

00:04:56.400 It's my property. I can do what I want to do. Cool. So then the promoters confirm that venues

00:05:05.400 told him exactly that. So Monday, Macklemore off the tour. Kraft said it crossed a line,

00:05:11.940 pointing to New Jersey and what he calls a broader history of anti-Semitic rhetoric and imagery.

00:05:19.360 Okay. I'm being real. I'm being as calm and as nice as I possibly can on this. 0.62

00:05:26.820 And I think you might be surprised where I come down on it. But anyway, uh, so on Tuesday,

00:05:33.200 Sharon speaks out. He says, it's the promoter's decision, not mine. Okay. He said, I spent a

00:05:40.700 week trying to build a bridge and I couldn't. Okay. He said, I'm not going to abandon the fans,

00:05:45.520 the crew, or the musicians who rely on me to make a living. He said he's appalled by the war,

00:05:51.880 but he's not going to be drawn into a public fight over it. Good. That's his right, too.

00:05:58.680 Just like it's Macklemore's right to speak out against the war. Within hours, every remaining

00:06:05.760 supporting act quit. Aaron Rowe, an Irish singer-songwriter who says Ed changed his life.

00:06:13.240 Bioga, an Irish folk band

00:06:16.480 that played in the middle of Ed's set

00:06:18.540 Lucas Graham

00:06:20.200 from Denmark and Phineas

00:06:22.180 Billy Eilish's brother

00:06:23.320 he was booked for South Africa

00:06:25.260 or South America

00:06:27.220 first of all Phineas, what do you expect? It's Phineas

00:06:29.600 of course, the rest of them 0.99

00:06:31.400 I don't even know

00:06:32.720 now you might, but I'm not going to see

00:06:35.800 what is it

00:06:36.780 Bodega or whatever they are

00:06:39.080 I'm not going to pay a ticket

00:06:41.840 of like $600 to see Bodega, okay?

00:06:46.960 When they get big, and I'm sure they're going to be big,

00:06:49.140 well, maybe not.

00:06:49.900 The world may never know their greatness

00:06:51.120 now that they've decided to do that,

00:06:52.540 but that were their principles,

00:06:53.580 and that's their right as well.

00:06:55.640 So let's look at this.

00:06:57.040 A dad on X with fewer than 1,000 followers

00:07:00.440 did something almost nobody bothers to do,

00:07:03.160 and that is write Ed Sheeran a letter

00:07:09.660 that just says, you know, a tweet that just says, dude, I love you, but this is so offensive. I had

00:07:15.780 to leave the stadium with my kids and then come back when you were on. Really? Is this what you

00:07:20.600 want to be? That caught fire. He decides, Kraft decides to start it up with the stadiums and then

00:07:28.300 we're off to the races. If Sheeran cancels, he eats roughly $25 million. 600,000 fans go home

00:07:39.600 disappointed. 10,000 workers lose the days they built their calendars around. 25 to 50 million

00:07:46.900 in profit disappears. And next time he does tours, he tours alone. Unless he makes every opener act

00:07:54.300 sign a contract promising never to say anything political on stage, which I think they should do

00:07:59.640 anyway. Now those are one man's estimates. It's not an audit. But his was the only post that I

00:08:09.400 read this week that remembered the guy who hangs the lights. That's why artists have business

00:08:15.500 managers. Because if they were left their own devices, they'd be broke by Thursday and proud

00:08:21.000 of it. I'm a starving artist. Yeah, whatever. But look what actually happened. Because for a little

00:08:28.840 while, the system was working. Macklemore said what he believed on stage out loud. He's right.

00:08:36.220 Robert Kraft decides, you know what?

00:08:38.560 You perform in a building that I own?

00:08:40.840 That's my right to say you're not performing here.

00:08:44.940 If you want to say those things,

00:08:47.080 Macklemore, was Sheeran okay with that?

00:08:50.320 Did you tell him?

00:08:51.100 Because it's his show.

00:08:52.080 You're an invited guest, okay?

00:08:55.220 As long as the man is inviting you to be on the stage,

00:08:57.920 but then if he's invited you and you said,

00:08:59.860 hey, I'm going to do this, and he's like,

00:09:01.160 I'm fine with that, well, then you got a problem with Ed.

00:09:03.320 four acts walk away from real money over principle i think their principle is wrong but that's their

00:09:09.680 paycheck it's whatever their protest they that's their right shiran shiran decides he's going to

00:09:17.940 keep his crew employed keep his opinion on the war himself his right and every person holding

00:09:23.960 a ticket gets to decide whether they're going to go or ask for a refund they're right everybody

00:09:29.540 chooses. Nobody arrested. Then comes the part that isn't a choice. Sheeran's silence is now

00:09:38.080 being called cowardice. One critic said he let a billionaire pick his politics for him,

00:09:43.360 like you haven't with George Soros. Macklemore's own song accuses artists who stay quiet of

00:09:50.220 complicity. The rule is simple. Neutrality is not permitted. You are going to say what the mob

00:09:57.740 tells you to say or you're guilty is that the kind of country you want to live in and i don't care

00:10:04.080 i don't care if it's happening on our side because we don't get a pass we don't get a pass anybody

00:10:08.680 who says you're wait wait wait you're for this war you're a traitor what

00:10:14.500 no you don't agree with everything this guy does or that guy does or you don't agree with 1.00

00:10:24.000 everything I say, you're a traitor. No, I'm not. I'm somebody who has an opinion,

00:10:30.020 and sometimes I agree with people, sometimes I don't. Gillette is private. Now, here's where

00:10:37.180 it gets sticky. Most of the other stadiums on this tour are owned by cities and states.

00:10:44.100 Okay, I know that Philadelphia is 100% city-owned. That's a different story now,

00:10:51.680 because now you can make a case.

00:10:54.940 Now, I don't know how this comes out,

00:10:56.660 but it's a city-owned venue.

00:10:59.260 So now you can make a case and say,

00:11:02.180 this is private speech,

00:11:04.640 and you are violating my First Amendment

00:11:08.100 because a city, a government, can't do that.

00:11:11.980 Hmm.

00:11:13.800 Gee, that's a problem, isn't it?

00:11:18.940 That's a real problem.

00:11:20.520 First Amendment. 0.97

00:11:21.120 If a taxpayer-owned stadium banned a Christian singer for something she said about an abortion, 0.53

00:11:26.500 I'd be on the microphone for a week. 0.74

00:11:28.020 I wouldn't want to go to the concert because if I go to the concert, I don't want to hear about abortion.

00:11:33.040 There's a growing crowd on the right that wants its own loyalty oath.

00:11:37.500 And it's the same disease as we have.

00:11:40.020 I mean, it's terminal on the left.

00:11:42.160 Don't catch that disease.

00:11:44.120 Now, I don't know what the answer is on this.

00:11:46.540 It's going to be raised by somebody.

00:11:47.900 and it's another reason why the stadiums should be private

00:11:52.060 and cities should run a city, not a stadium.

00:11:59.400 You know, we've been here before, and it answers all of it.

00:12:07.000 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:12:14.460 Truth is under attack in our culture.

00:12:16.540 People are embracing lies about gender.

00:12:18.760 They're rejecting the sanctity of every human life.

00:12:21.480 And the government is even punishing people for saying what's true and right.

00:12:25.460 Or worse, the woke mob is doxing them and slandering them with no due process.

00:12:29.760 Just an angry mob making their lives miserable or worse, putting families in real danger.

00:12:35.240 But the biblical principles on which our country was founded still matter.

00:12:39.020 Real patriots and Christians are beginning to stand up.

00:12:42.480 They're showing real courage without a safety net of a big bank account.

00:12:45.720 They're bolstered only by the truths that are self-evident, but these people must be defended.

00:12:51.560 Alliance Defending Freedom is on the front lines of this fight,

00:12:54.500 and they're standing in courtrooms across the country upholding truth, and you're right to speak it.

00:13:15.720 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:13:23.900 Danny, welcome back to the program. I'm glad you're here.

00:13:26.820 We had such a huge response to you when you were first on because people wanted to hear your story.

00:13:34.540 So can we start there? Tell me your story.

00:13:36.960 You were born in Jordan and you were a diehard.

00:13:40.040 If I'm not mistaken, you told me you cheered on 9-11.

00:13:45.720 and not for the Americans. Good morning, Glenn. Yeah, I was 13, as I told you. But it doesn't

00:13:54.300 mean that I was radical, because that is a misconception. If you are a Muslim, then you

00:14:02.020 side with Islam. You side with Allah. You side with the believers, the followers, the faithful 1.00

00:14:08.820 to allah and america is against allah so i cheered not because i was a radical and

00:14:16.100 in 2006 i became devout but again that was not radicalism that was just mainstream islam

00:14:24.720 i became devout in response to the danish cartoonist who drew the prophet of islam

00:14:30.820 in Denmark, if you remember, in 2006.

00:14:34.960 And I decided, all right, I'm going to defend Allah,

00:14:38.880 I'm going to defend Islam, I'm going to defend the faith. 0.78

00:14:42.500 And one year later, I left Islam. 0.90

00:14:46.120 So, of course, it's a long journey. 1.00

00:14:48.780 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:14:49.620 Why did you?

00:14:50.700 I mean, you're ready to go defend Islam. 0.99

00:14:57.160 What changed?

00:14:58.280 i could answer this question in different ways but i would say that first that theological answer

00:15:07.580 in christianity we have something called justification you feel at peace with god

00:15:11.740 you're justified not because of your performance but because of what god has done on your behalf 0.72

00:15:16.760 in islam there is no sense of justification you feel this enmity no matter what you do how

00:15:22.900 dedicated you are. I'm not exaggerating. I would wake up at four in the morning and then wash with

00:15:32.320 cold freezing water because that gets me more credit with Allah and walk to the mosque and I 0.98

00:15:39.360 take the longer road because that gets me more credit in dark as I was praying, God please give

00:15:47.660 me peace. God, please give me your light. And a year later, there was nothing, absolutely nothing.

00:15:56.040 And of course, on top of that, you read the history, you read the violence, you read the 0.66

00:16:01.420 personal life of Muhammad. And God sent someone my way, who started planting the seeds of doubt.

00:16:11.140 You know, when you read the Quran, for example, if you're a Muslim, and you read the Quran,

00:16:15.300 you read to worship not to understand there's no critical thinking there and i did that for

00:16:23.300 all of my life and then this guy started you know asking questions like hey what do you think of

00:16:30.040 this what do you think of that and for the first time i would be reading the quran and oh my

00:16:35.580 goodness muhammad married his daughter in law i was like what is this and then i i would say okay

00:16:42.540 okay, there's got to be an answer. I would go to an imam or a cleric, and I was like,

00:16:46.780 what do you think of this verse? And no answer. So anyway, I left Islam, and I became Christian

00:16:54.320 after reading the Gospels, and that's what happened. Have you heard this? I've heard this.

00:17:01.580 I don't know if any of this is true, but I have heard that there's a ton of Muslims that are

00:17:07.180 converting now, especially over in the Middle East, because they're having dreams of Jesus.

00:17:11.180 Have you heard that?

00:17:14.200 Yes, I heard that.

00:17:15.980 I was a missionary in the Middle East for 14 years.

00:17:19.140 I worked in eight different countries, planting churches, preaching the gospel.

00:17:24.520 And I'm not a big fan of the theology behind dreams.

00:17:28.740 I'm Reformed, so I know that many of your audience won't like that. 0.95

00:17:33.100 But anyway, no, I believe that millions of Muslims are leaving Islam.

00:17:37.420 Millions. 1.00

00:17:37.980 you won't you won't believe that full churches are women in hijab they're they just converted 0.68

00:17:46.700 and they still wear the hijab it's cultural thing but yeah it's happening all over the

00:17:51.760 islamic world that's for sure you you said something a minute ago that there are basically

00:17:59.400 There are no radicals.

00:18:01.720 How do you explain that?

00:18:05.680 Yeah, the radicals in Islam, they are the secular, the moderate.

00:18:12.400 Because what is radicalism? 0.72

00:18:15.480 You're not adhering genuinely to the faith.

00:18:21.300 If you are following the commandments of the faith as Allah meant them to be or Muhammad meant them to be, then you are just moderate. 0.87

00:18:31.700 And ISIS, Al-Qaeda, they're moderate Muslims. 0.92

00:18:35.840 They are the true followers of Islam. 0.99

00:18:38.560 I know that is shocking.

00:18:39.820 I know that many people would call this Islamophobia.

00:18:42.540 Well, you cannot call me Islamophobe.

00:18:45.740 Try if you want.

00:18:47.220 My mother is still a Muslim. 0.79

00:18:49.240 But I'm telling you the truth. 1.00

00:18:51.700 If you want to be a faithful Muslim, you must be a terrorist. 1.00

00:18:55.960 Thank God the absolute majority of Muslims are not faithful to Islam. 1.00

00:19:01.820 The Islamic countries, Glenn, they have deactivated Islam. 1.00

00:19:06.800 They keep the shell, but their laws, they are imported from the West. 1.00

00:19:14.120 Unfortunately, not 100%.

00:19:16.300 But I mean, if you steal something, you don't get your hands, what is the word, amputated.

00:19:25.880 You don't get it amputated.

00:19:27.120 Why? 0.98

00:19:27.780 Because they don't follow Sharia anymore.

00:19:30.100 They don't behead you.

00:19:31.860 They don't stone you.

00:19:33.080 They used to do that in Saudi Arabia until recently.

00:19:36.580 That is Islam. 0.98

00:19:37.960 That is moderate Islam. 0.56

00:19:39.160 And let me be clear here. 0.78

00:19:40.720 Islam is monolithic let me repeat that Islam is monolithic I know that many people love to say

00:19:49.580 oh Islam has different set of beliefs and different currents that is not true Muslim sects they differ

00:19:57.780 on ridiculously minor things or non-theological things I'll give you an example the two major

00:20:06.580 sects in Islam, Sunni and Shia, you know, Iran and Saudi Arabia. They have been fighting for 14

00:20:11.660 centuries. You would think, oh, they're fighting over theology, just like Protestant and Catholics. 0.53

00:20:17.580 No, they're fighting over politics. Who should have been the caliph after Muhammad? Is it Ali 0.54

00:20:24.980 or Umar? But in theology, they don't differ on anything. The same God, the same book, the same

00:20:30.320 prophet, the same biography of Muhammad, the same sayings of Muhammad, minor things. 0.59

00:20:37.280 So would you say then the people who follow the 12th Imam, the 12ers as they know, as

00:20:46.460 they're known, that that's what most of Islam follows? 0.99

00:20:52.780 Because I've always heard the opposite, that the 12ers are really frightening and dangerous. 1.00

00:21:00.320 I was a Sunni before I converted to Christianity. I was not a Twelver, Shia.

00:21:06.940 Let me tell you this. Sunni Islam is way more dangerous than Shia Islam. 1.00

00:21:12.980 Even though Shia Islam, the Twelvers, they are Iran and Hezbollah and the West has painted a picture about them. 1.00

00:21:22.120 But think of ISIS and Hezbollah. 0.99

00:21:25.340 yes hezbollah is a terrorist organization that's for sure killed americans and

00:21:30.580 doesn't hesitate to kill civilians but nothing nothing similar to what isis did burning people

00:21:38.980 alive uh just remember 2013 14 15 and so sunni islam that violence in sunni islam doesn't have 0.62

00:21:49.780 a purpose. It is for the purpose of terrorizing the enemy. In Shia Islam, violence has a teleological 0.84

00:21:58.340 end because they're waiting for al-Mahdi. Of course, Sunnis too, they're waiting for al-Mahdi, 1.00

00:22:04.280 but it's like a different version of al-Mahdi. But let me say this again. These are eschatological 0.99

00:22:10.960 differences. They don't agree on what's going to happen when al-Mahdi comes back. But when it comes

00:22:18.420 to the main pillars of the faith, because I need to be clear about this. When I say Islam is

00:22:23.940 monolithic, I mean the Quran, the same Quran, the same interpretation of the major doctrines.

00:22:30.760 They pray five times, five times, Muhammad, his story, all of the main things. But eschatology,

00:22:37.300 even among Christians, if you think about it, we have a thousand different eschatological

00:22:43.240 interpretation within Christianity, right? But we go to the same church. Maybe if you are—next

00:22:52.280 Sunday, ask the person next to you, what do you think about this cathology? Probably they don't

00:22:57.840 believe in the same thing as you do, but you still go to the same church. Why? Because this

00:23:02.420 cathology is not really the main pillar of the faith. Correct. Yeah, so I'm talking about— 1.00

00:23:08.060 It is starting to become an important topic as, you know, many people believe we are living in those end days.

00:23:16.300 People have, I mean, the apostles thought it too, so you never know.

00:23:19.960 And the Shia end of time story is almost like somebody took the book of Revelation and, you know, just wrote the opposite. 0.98

00:23:30.860 And you're like, I mean, wow, because their good guy is our bad guy and our good guy is their bad guy. 1.00

00:23:40.140 And I think they mean it.

00:23:43.860 And, you know, when you're looking at, you know, the scriptures tell us, you know, a 200 million man army.

00:23:53.020 Okay, that might be China, but that's easily Islam.

00:23:57.840 If 10% of Islam is radical, that's over a million, a hundred million man army. 0.55

00:24:06.360 Yeah. 0.94

00:24:07.000 You know, and I think it's probably, you know, if things got heated up, you'd have a 400 million man army easily with Islam. 1.00

00:24:17.420 Every generation thinks of themselves that this is the end times. 0.96

00:24:23.160 We are the generation of the end times because we love to be the center of event.

00:24:27.340 You know, we love to think that we are the most important generation that has ever lived.

00:24:35.220 I don't, even though I'm a theologian myself, but when it comes to eschatology, I prefer to keep it to myself because I believe that you have been following what was happening.

00:24:46.660 And there was a debate between dispensationalism and replacement theology within Christianity and the anti-Israel where weaponizing theology and chanting, Christ is king, Christ is king, you know, to take a jab at Jews.

00:25:03.000 Using theology to justify your actions or your positions, this is something global.

00:25:10.780 Every group in the world does that.

00:25:12.680 The difference is that in Islam, and this is something, this is a very important point, because many people think that Islam is like an embryonic version of Christianity. You know, Christianity was violent, then there was the Reformation, and then Christianity became reconciled with liberal democracy, and now Christianity can't coexist. 0.95

00:25:33.220 That is ridiculous. That is ridiculous. Christianity was never violent. It was Christian people who were violent and based on no scripture at all. So when the church decided to do anything, like to burn witches, for example, there is no scripture to support their stance. 1.00

00:25:52.960 Now, the difference is that in Islam, it is the text itself.

00:25:58.640 So when people say, is it possible to reform Islam?

00:26:02.500 Again, they're projecting their own understanding of religion onto Islam.

00:26:07.360 They think, oh, the same thing is going to happen within Islam, just like Martin Luther and John Calvin.

00:26:12.300 But that is a false comparison, because the Christian Reformation was going back to the Sola Scriptura, to the text. 0.76

00:26:21.560 If Muslims decide to do that, we will end up with 2 billion ISIS terrorists. 0.88

00:26:27.980 We don't want that. 0.80

00:26:29.500 So Islamic Reformation took place after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, 0.97

00:26:33.620 and that was the birth of the Muslim Brotherhood.

00:26:36.240 That was the Reformation.

00:26:38.840 So another definition or misdefinition, I would say,

00:26:43.020 is that in the West, when the Founding Fathers penned the Constitution,

00:26:48.380 the Bill of Rights, they were not thinking of Islam.

00:26:50.140 They were thinking of different denominations within Protestantism and Catholicism, maybe Judaism. 0.64

00:26:55.900 They were not thinking about Islam at all because Islam does not fit the Western definition of a religion. 0.69

00:27:03.620 Islam is— 0.99

00:27:04.900 Wait, wait, wait. 1.00

00:27:05.920 I just want—I got to take a break.

00:27:07.640 I want people to sit with that, and then I want you to come back and explain that.

00:27:11.860 You're saying Islam—and this is critical.

00:27:14.660 You're saying Islam does not fit the definition of a religion. 1.00

00:27:20.140 Quite a statement. Back that up in 60 seconds.

00:27:27.800 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:27:43.040 Show me a person's checkbook and I'll show you a thing or two about their values.

00:27:46.880 because every month, whether we think about it or not,

00:27:49.460 we're deciding which companies we want to help succeed.

00:27:53.760 That's why I appreciate Patriot Mobile.

00:27:55.820 They weren't created just to be another wireless company.

00:27:58.260 They were founded, really, on the belief that commerce helps shape culture,

00:28:02.360 and Americans deserve a genuine Christian conservative alternative.

00:28:06.600 Today, they're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider

00:28:09.500 offering premium priority service on all three major networks,

00:28:13.160 unlimited data plans, international roaming,

00:28:15.220 100% U.S.-based customer support

00:28:17.520 and even the ability to have

00:28:19.360 two networks on a single phone

00:28:21.160 for extra peace of mind.

00:28:22.920 Year after year, they invest millions of dollars

00:28:25.060 in defending free speech and religious liberty

00:28:27.480 and the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment

00:28:29.540 and America's future.

00:33:01.440 I'm not like, wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:33:02.860 I know that, I know.

00:33:03.840 I got nothing.

00:33:05.380 I got nothing.

00:33:07.200 This is exactly what happened with Tallarico.

00:33:10.540 Listen to this.

00:33:11.580 This is Tallarico.

00:33:12.420 So nice to meet you.

00:33:13.080 Sorry, I broke my head. 1.00

00:33:13.900 I was there when you defended the drags. 0.99

00:33:16.420 Who's your favorite drag queen in Texas? 0.99

00:33:18.180 Oh, my gosh. 1.00

00:33:18.740 Probably Alyssa Edwards.

00:33:19.480 Alyssa Edwards?

00:33:20.060 I love Mikey Mays.

00:33:21.120 Thank you so much.

00:33:22.300 Oh, probably Alyssa Edwards.

00:33:24.440 I mean, like, no hesitation. 1.00

00:33:26.480 Who's your favorite drag queen? 1.00

00:33:27.720 Oh, Alyssa Edwards. 0.98

00:33:28.960 It's got to be Alyssa Edwards.

00:33:30.060 You know, I've been thinking about it for a while.

00:33:32.040 You know, I used to really love Tom, you know, Missing Peter.

00:33:42.040 But Alyssa, I just really, really love.

00:33:45.240 I really love.

00:33:46.360 Who is Melissa?

00:33:48.960 Jason?

00:33:50.180 So, Alyssa.

00:33:51.660 Alyssa, sorry.

00:33:52.460 Not Melissa.

00:33:53.100 You didn't know off the top of your head?

00:33:54.420 I'm sorry.

00:33:55.260 I confuse Melissa and Alyssa all the time. 1.00

00:33:58.240 She's another drag queen. 0.81

00:33:59.720 um so alissa edwards was actually featured on uh on netflix um a video uh was seen of

00:34:08.840 alissa edwards uh on dancing queen where he is in full-on drag at a dance studio working with

00:34:18.800 little children what could possibly go wrong there um i don't even know the show if somebody

00:34:25.960 said what's your favorite dancing queen show i don't think i could even come up with oh dancing

00:34:34.520 queen i couldn't even come up with the name of the show but apparently he probably had to know the

00:34:40.880 show and the drag queen so two points for him uh while we're on this would he would he support

00:34:48.260 trans ban on minors. Cut eight. Would you vote in favor of a national ban for transgender surgeries 0.56

00:34:56.500 when it comes to minors? Absolutely. And in fact, in the legislature, I voted for an amendment 0.98

00:35:01.560 that would have restricted the bill in question to a ban on surgeries for minors.

00:35:09.200 Wait a minute. Wait a minute. That's a plot twist, isn't it? Here he is on cut nine.

00:35:18.260 During the 2021 hearing, you said there are six biological sexes.

00:35:23.600 Do you still believe that?

00:35:25.000 Standing here with me right now.

00:35:25.980 No, I've missed the mark on some of my past statements.

00:35:29.200 I will be the first to admit it.

00:35:30.960 What I meant is that there are two sexes and then there's a small percentage of people

00:35:34.860 with genetic abnormalities.

00:35:36.860 I obviously didn't say it correctly.

00:35:38.260 There are not six sexes. 0.99

00:35:39.440 There are two. 1.00

00:35:40.560 Oh, come on.

00:35:41.560 Does anybody believe this?

00:35:44.720 Does anybody believe this?

00:35:46.460 you can't say there's six genders and then say no there's two sexes because the whole thing

00:35:52.900 is it's not about sex it's about gender remember that was the whole argument you can't name your

00:36:00.960 favorite drag queen and then say that yeah i go ahead i don't think anyone believes this and this

00:36:08.900 includes the texas democratic party manager who was caught on uh a hidden camera on uh the daily

00:36:17.140 wire caught this and they and they said quote well this is the time actually i have the video do you

00:36:21.600 want yeah yeah go ahead go yeah here it is oh why would he walk back um i would say that right now

00:36:29.960 he's trying to target a white or not which unfortunately means like being more palatable

00:36:37.220 to Republicans here in Texas

00:36:39.220 and I think that

00:36:41.660 from the character that he's shown us

00:36:43.620 it seems like he does believe

00:36:45.480 the things that he said before

00:36:46.580 but at this point in time it just seems like

00:36:49.460 from my perspective

00:36:50.740 yeah, he really needs to win 0.95

00:36:53.740 those Texans over

00:36:55.840 his support for trans

00:36:57.740 children has not changed

00:36:58.900 in his heart he still supports

00:37:02.080 yeah, I think

00:37:03.880 you talk to some Republicans

00:37:05.940 and they're very Republican, especially here in Texas.

00:37:10.420 They're very to the right.

00:37:12.260 That's all it is.

00:37:13.720 I mean, who doesn't know this?

00:37:18.380 Who really?

00:37:20.340 Texas, you're going to get what you deserve if you let this guy win.

00:37:23.980 You're going to get what you deserve.

00:37:25.920 And I don't want that to happen.

00:37:29.480 I mean, you can't let this. 0.99

00:37:32.280 There are a lot of dumb people who will go, yeah, he sounds just like me. 0.99

00:37:36.840 I'm kind of like that, too. 0.99

00:37:38.420 I believe, you know, maybe there's some people that were, you know, have sprouted three wieners.

00:37:45.600 And so we got to take them into effect. 0.99

00:37:47.460 But there's only two sexes. 1.00

00:37:49.020 That's just like me. 0.92

00:37:50.480 That's not who he is.

00:37:52.200 And those people exist.

00:37:53.680 And they're going to go out and vote because he's also going to promise free stuff.

00:37:57.900 And if you're at home going, you know what?

00:37:59.960 I just don't really like the way, you know, Cornyn and I, you know,

00:38:03.780 I don't like Ken Paxton and the way he handled his marriage.

00:38:08.380 Yeah, neither do I.

00:38:09.940 Neither do I. 0.99

00:38:11.360 Are you going to punish yourself by putting this clown in? 0.98

00:38:17.120 Who do you think is going to get hurt by that? 0.99

00:38:21.660 But, you know, hey, it's your vote.

00:38:24.340 Whatever, whatever.

00:38:25.800 And by the way, he wants you to know that all of his money is coming from hardworking Texans.

00:38:31.740 Cut six.

00:38:32.940 The thing about fundraising is you've got to look at where the money is coming from.

00:38:37.220 You know, I don't take a dime from corporate PACs.

00:38:40.280 I never have, never will.

00:38:41.820 All of my money comes from hardworking Texans who are giving $5, $10, $15 at a time.

00:38:48.860 And billionaires.

00:38:50.320 And billionaires.

00:38:51.140 And people from California that you're taking money from.

00:38:53.540 come on i could you do it could you sleep at night because i know all politicians and i shouldn't say

00:39:01.380 all politicians a lot of politicians they do this and they say could you sleep at night because i

00:39:06.720 couldn't ricky you want to add something to this oh i'm just saying this guy wears texas like a

00:39:13.440 skin suit he goes there's ads of him going into cracker barrel and pretending like he's one of

00:39:19.600 the hard working texans that he's talking about and and it's just like a joke and he's just like

00:39:25.320 what do i do with this biscuit like he is a tale of two talaricos truly truly there are two talaricos

00:39:33.160 we have evidence of this several statements on tape going back years and say whatever you want

00:39:38.120 about ken paxton he hasn't changed i'll play one more cut seven and then i want to give you my

00:39:48.500 commentary on it. Scripture tells us that you can't love God and hate other people. You can't

00:39:55.200 love God and abuse the immigrant. You can't love God and oppress the poor. You can't love God and

00:40:02.400 bully the outcast. We spend so much time looking for God out there that we miss God in the person 0.78

00:40:11.420 sitting right next to us, in that neighbor who bears the divine image. I was brought up to

00:40:18.480 believe that in the face of a neighbor, we glimpse the face of God. Matthew 25 tells us

00:40:25.520 Christians exactly how we're going to be judged and how we're going to be saved by feeding the

00:40:31.680 hungry, by healing the sick, by welcoming the stranger. I often wonder what would Jesus do

00:40:39.640 if he visited the U.S. Senate? I think he would tell the senators on the floor,

00:40:45.640 depart from me depart for i was hungry and you cut my food assistance oh that's i was

00:40:52.900 sick and you kicked me off medicaid amen i was a stranger and you deported me

00:40:58.880 and my family brother this is the biggest heresy i have ever seen that's not jesus 0.98

00:41:06.720 give me a minute i'll come back want to calm down a bit

00:41:10.840 because jesus is clear on what he would have said to the senate he already said it

00:41:20.720 we can go check the book it's in the record we know what he'd do

00:41:26.160 this is the best of the glenn beck program and we really want to thank you for listening

00:41:40.840 Here's a question that I want you to ask yourself.

00:41:43.960 If someone in your family got sick tomorrow or there was a medication shortage or a natural disaster and it kept you from getting a doctor for a few days, what do you actually have that you need?

00:41:55.300 These are real possibilities now.

00:41:57.260 That's just one of the reasons I like Jace.
