00:00:00.000 Stu and I arrived at Turning Point USA this morning around 430 to be ready to do this podcast

00:00:07.020 for you live on national radio. And then we we finished that. There's some really good stuff

00:00:14.540 on today's podcast talking about the turning point where we are, what it's like here, and also some

00:00:23.220 of the news that is happening, including what what Pam Bondi and Donald Trump are talking about now

00:00:28.300 on hate speech, something Charlie was dead set against. And we're going to be filling in for him.

00:00:33.660 I recommend to you search out that podcast and listen to that. And a lot of people have asked

00:00:39.220 to how they can help. I don't know what the right answer to this is, but as maybe a placeholder for

00:00:44.620 this is helping the family to start and TPUSA. We do have a fundraiser, give send go dot com slash

00:00:51.740 nine twelve project to help the family. But TPUSA, we see now over 50,000 requests for new

00:03:40.600 work. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

00:03:55.160 We have Chip Roy on with us. Chip is the Republican congressman from Texas, also candidate for Texas

00:04:03.940 attorney general. And we couldn't get a better attorney general than Chip Roy. Um, Chip, I want

00:04:08.680 to talk to you a little bit about, um, you know, what the New York times is saying and a gross overreach

00:04:14.100 that we are now, uh, targeting the Democrats and we're using Charlie Kurtz death as a political tool

00:04:23.020 by going after some of these NGOs and looking into who might be funding, uh, different things. Can you

00:04:30.100 respond to that? Well, I think they're afraid that's the truth, Glenn. Uh, they don't want us to pursue

00:04:36.780 the truth. They don't want us to expose to the American people, the broad, extensive, coordinated

00:04:43.460 network of radical leftists, Marxists that are funding all of this. Now they think we're trying to

00:04:50.520 say, Oh, you know, you're saying they funded the shooting of Charlie Kurtz. Well, we'll let the

00:04:56.340 authorities go investigate this and follow the law wherever it may lead. But what I am saying

00:05:02.060 is that that radical organized coordinated group are purposely undermining our values and our way of

00:05:09.200 life, whether it's the border and all of the funding of the NGOs and all of the organizations,

00:05:15.420 including by the way, a lot of charities masquerading as faith organizations that were

00:05:20.400 dumping people into our country, harming our citizens. American citizens died, fentanyl poured into

00:05:25.920 our streets, the organized funding, like the Ren collective that is a tied to these radical DAs

00:05:32.800 and Soros funded prosecutors, judges that are letting criminals out on the street,

00:05:38.740 then in dangerous that resulted directly in the death of the Ukrainian refugee that we all saw 0.87

00:05:44.240 in that horrific video leading up to obviously the loss of Charlie, but the radicalization of our

00:05:50.940 schools, the radicalization of all of this stuff, the transgender efforts, all of that is not just

00:05:56.700 some fanciful, like weird unicorn hippie crap. It's actually a coordinated effort to target Western

00:06:03.440 civilization and our belief system. And they don't want us to pursue it. We must pursue it. And that's

00:06:10.220 why I put forward a letter calling on the formation of a select committee. They're designed to focus on it.

00:06:16.080 Now, look, if we want to run that all under judiciary or oversight, fine. I mean, Speaker Johnson and Jim

00:06:22.140 Jordan and Jamie Comer, they're all great friends. However, we want to do it. The purpose of the

00:06:26.520 letter is to say we must do it. It can't just be left to cash and the FBI and to Pam Bondi and to the

00:06:31.980 administration. Congress has to do our job to expose to the American people, this broad network

00:06:37.780 that is radicalized against our way of life.

00:06:41.740 We just to go through some of them. 2012 terrorist attack against a conservative Christian think tank,

00:06:47.560 the Family Research Council. We know somebody went in there and just shot everybody up.

00:06:51.680 Steve Scalise shot at the Republican practice for the congressional baseball game. The guy wanted to

00:06:56.360 is a Bernie Sanders fan, wanted to kill everybody on the diamond. All of the Republicans ran Paul

00:07:02.000 attacked by a crazy lefty on his own lawn. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh almost

00:07:07.560 assassinated. President Trump nearly assassinated, not once, but twice, both lefties. And now Charlie

00:07:14.460 Kirk was assassinated. And I think a lot of this... Go ahead. No, go ahead.

00:07:20.580 No, I want to point out one thing there. Take an organization like the Southern Poverty Law Center.

00:07:27.880 They have their heat map, right, that is directed to saying that we've got our folks who are hate

00:07:33.780 organizations or, you know, somehow a threat. And they put all that out there trying to radicalize

00:07:40.680 their people. Guess who was on that list? The Family Research Council, which you just pointed

00:07:46.060 out, was shot up by a radicalized individual right here in Washington, D.C., where a security guard got

00:07:51.640 shot. Charlie Kirk was on the Southern Poverty Law Centers, targeted heat map, and basically putting

00:08:01.300 a target on Charlie Kirk. So all of these things are coordinated. And I didn't mean to interrupt you,

00:08:06.380 but I just wanted people to understand each one of these things are connected.

00:08:10.300 You have a lot of it also that is connected directly to schools. I mean, Arabella Advisors,

00:08:19.720 you know, you look at what these guys are doing in conjunction, just raising money and dumping

00:08:27.620 it into these far left wings. I mean, Chip, I've been on this since Tides Foundation was, you

00:08:34.920 know, something new and breaking news. This is a long running practice of the left. And

00:08:44.880 it's got us. It has to stop. It has to stop because they're not only taking the money that

00:08:51.740 they're raising and fomenting revolution, color revolution in our own country, but they also 0.76

00:08:57.640 have found a way to our tax dollars. And so these same organizations are getting our tax dollars

00:09:02.600 to do the same. Glenn, you know, when I've followed you for a long time and, and, you know,

00:09:10.000 you and I have now known each other for a long time. And, and, and the thing that I've always

00:09:14.920 admired about what you've done is try to explain to the American people, even dating back to some

00:09:20.900 of your, your TV days where you go out there and you have the big whiteboards, right? Connecting the

00:09:25.540 dots. And this is where I think Congress has been missing it. And Republican Congress, and we do,

00:09:32.320 we do a lot of good stuff. Okay. And look, we've been working hard and the big, beautiful bill and

00:09:36.360 all this stuff, you know, I'm talking about good and bad. There's some good, some bad. You got to

00:09:40.280 hurt cats. I get it. But we have not done a sufficient job, in my opinion, of exposing this

00:09:47.600 organized, coordinated effort. And by the way, that is directly tied to what we were articulating a

00:09:54.520 couple of years ago, when we went through the speakers fight, and we were demanding that we create

00:09:59.160 a sort of weaponization select committee, we ended up sticking it under the judiciary committee. And

00:10:04.940 we did some things. But the purpose there to me is much bigger and bolder than we've ever done.

00:10:11.640 I believe we need to step on the gas. I believe that we need to expose that coordinated network

00:10:17.560 and the weaponization of government that is tied to it. That's the key element here, right? All of those

00:10:24.160 groups, fomenting hate and targeting our people. And I don't mean fomenting hate like hate speech.

00:10:28.940 That's a garbage principle, by the way. And I hope the attorney general is backing away from

00:10:34.020 talking about, quote, hate speech. That's a leftist, tyrannical terminology. We don't police thoughts.

00:10:41.320 But the focus, when you've got a hate map, that's a political tool of the left to say that,

00:10:48.320 yeah, Charlie Kirk, he's a hater. And the Family Research Council is a hater. Why? Because

00:10:54.000 we believe in Jesus, and we believe in Western civilization. We believe in marriage. We believe

00:10:58.380 in families. We believe in responsibility and work ethic and Western civilization. They want to target

00:11:04.020 it and go after it. And they use government to attack us for it. They use government to undermine

00:11:09.780 the Trump administration. They use government to target law-abiding citizens and things like the

00:11:15.220 FACE Act, if you dared pray in an abortion clinic. And I could go on and on. That's the coordinated

00:11:20.160 effort we need to do a better job of exposing. That's what my letter was all about.

00:11:24.000 I was on a conference call yesterday with a bunch of leaders on the right. And we were discussing

00:11:31.580 things that need to happen. And I brought up some things that can't happen. I said, you know, I hope

00:11:37.000 that we are all watchdogs here, that we don't go too far, that we don't have a Patriot Act. Because

00:11:42.840 right now, the passions are running very, very high. And we don't want another Patriot Act. We cannot afford

00:11:49.860 another Patriot Act. I want to make sure that we're doing everything constitutionally

00:11:53.940 correct, not getting into some sort of thing that we're all going to regret down the road.

00:12:00.360 Is this all constitutional? Is this all right in line with, are you opening up a can of worms that

00:12:06.860 when the other side gets a hold of this, we're going to pay for it?

00:12:10.180 Well, so I couldn't agree more, actually. And keep in mind, what we're talking about is

00:12:16.140 what I'm talking about, not a law, not a additional crime, not a, you know, statute that's going to be

00:12:22.400 enforced against people. It's about saying we need to put together hearings with subpoenas and call

00:12:28.880 people forward and paint a picture for the American people. Look, we do that anyway. All this,

00:12:34.320 that's it. Well, that's oversight. That's our job in Congress. But we just need to do it with focus.

00:12:39.360 My point is, and I think you agree, we just need to do it better. And we just need to expose

00:12:44.180 this radical, radicalized network that's against our way of life. People are going to say, oh,

00:12:48.920 that's McCarthyism. No, I want to seek truth wherever it may lead. I believe, and I've seen

00:12:55.480 significant evidence of these coordinated activities. Let's go see it. If George Soros is just sitting on an

00:13:01.960 island, throwing money into the wind to get people elected, he is within his rights to do so.

00:13:07.640 If some organization wants to speak out and say they don't like our country or they don't believe

00:13:12.400 in Jesus, they are free to do so. But when you are coordinating all of that, and these organizations

00:13:17.660 are masquerading as things they are not, and when they are then using that to foment the kind of

00:13:22.940 violence and things that are directed at our way of life, or putting criminals on the streets,

00:13:27.300 or putting gang members in our neighborhoods, or funneling fentanyl into our communities,

00:13:31.140 because it's a political operation, because they want more voters, well, that's a real problem.

00:13:37.880 And that's undermining our security, and it needs to be exposed, must be exposed,

00:13:42.980 and then we can go deal with it. But I couldn't agree more. We should not react. Like, I'll give you

00:13:48.180 an example. We were debating yesterday in the Rules Committee a small provision that was added to the

00:13:53.860 continuing resolution to add additional security for executive branch, judiciary, and then, yes,

00:13:59.860 legislative branch officials. It was about $88 million of funding. Now, that's not huge in our

00:14:05.520 budgetary scheme, sadly. But I raised the question, guys, how are we paying for this? How is this going

00:14:10.840 to work? Like, sure, security. But we shouldn't react and throw everything out because we're just,

00:14:17.000 oh my God, we're in a panic. This happened. This is terrible. We should follow our normal procedures,

00:14:21.520 make reasoned, collective judgments about what is good for the country. And I believe the country

00:14:28.720 deserves to know the truth about organizations they think are innocent that are out there fomenting a

00:14:36.100 lot of the things that are undermining their liberty, their security, their way of life.

00:14:40.600 Talking to Chip Roy, who's running for Texas Attorney General. He is currently a congressman,

00:14:47.120 one of the best congressmen in Washington. Let me switch gears. How long do you think this is going

00:14:52.120 to last, this at least attempt at unity? You know, especially after what you saw happen with

00:15:01.020 Luigi Mangione in court yesterday. People in the courtroom cheered when they said, you know,

00:15:08.860 they had to throw out the murder in the first degree charge. They cheered.

00:15:14.800 Well, I don't really put much stock in whatever people are saying about, quote, unity at the moment,

00:15:20.520 whether that's unity that people are saying we need to unite across our ideologies or even within,

00:15:26.000 frankly, the Republican Party per se. Unity without purpose that are binding us together under a shared

00:15:32.020 set of values is not unity. Like, what are we united to do and accomplish?

00:15:37.420 Um, I said this in so much in the letter that we're not, we can't force being bound together.

00:15:45.280 You are bound together based on your commitment to a shared belief system. And you either believe

00:15:52.080 in Western civilization, believe in God, believe that our Western civilization is built on those

00:15:59.220 principles, or you don't.

00:16:00.660 Chip, as always, thank you very much. Appreciate it. Keep up the good work.

00:16:09.420 God bless you, Glenn. Take care.

00:16:13.080 All right. Let me tell you about, uh, pre-born. Uh, you know, it's really easy crying, crying, um, um,

00:16:19.900 crying babies are annoying, but crying babies, you know, when they're first crying, it's like,

00:16:25.840 hey, they're alive. And that's one thing that is really easy to celebrate life. Now,

00:16:33.660 some people don't want to celebrate life. Some people would say, shout your abortion. That's called

00:16:39.940 a culture of death. And as we've talked about on this program over and over and over again,

00:16:45.300 a culture of death might start with the babies, but then end with the killing of anyone they find

00:16:52.880 useless. Huh? Or annoying that crying baby, that, that shouting Charlie Kirk doesn't matter. 1.00

00:17:01.920 Once you start dismissing life, you can dismiss any life. If it offends you, if you don't deem it

00:17:09.900 worthy, see how this works. Pre-born wants us to get back to the basics and declare that all life

00:17:16.560 is sacred. Um, we have to stand up for life in the abortion clinics. And that is exactly what

00:17:23.280 happens with pre-born. They're great. Pre-born.com slash Beck, make a donation. Now pre-born.com slash

00:17:29.640 Beck, dial pound two 50 on your phone, say the keyword baby and save and stand up for life.

00:17:35.460 Now back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. And we really want to thank you

00:17:40.880 for listening. Ryan, welcome to the program. We're glad you're here. Thanks for having me.

00:17:48.200 So, uh, Ryan, uh, first of all, uh, I know how you felt about Charlie Kirk and, uh, condolences,

00:17:54.180 uh, on that. And thank you for everything that you're doing, uh, right now. I think this is so

00:17:59.120 important, especially in the wake of his, uh, martyrdom.

00:18:03.060 Yeah. Thank you. And it's an honor really to be part of, um, you know, your friend and to be part

00:18:11.100 of, part of your team and try to make a difference so that this doesn't go unanswered. And so that

00:18:16.360 hopefully some greater good comes about as a result of this.

00:18:21.000 So I remember you and I met, Oh, how many years ago? And we, we sat together and we talked about

00:18:30.140 taking on George Soros and how important. Do you remember that conversation?

00:18:35.840 I do. Um, it was, we were discussing our mutual friend, Phil Haney, who had passed, um, and the way

00:18:42.040 forward.

00:18:45.440 Uh, and so you have been doing research, uh, and you are a great researcher, um, and you've been doing

00:18:52.160 research and what can you share now? I know you want to make a big announcement when we're together

00:18:56.740 again with the, the Charlie Kirk, uh, show, but what can you give us as a preview?

00:19:03.720 Well, what I can say is, is that I believe that myself and my colleagues at Capitol research

00:19:09.500 center have done the most extensive investigation into the Soros network's funding of extremists

00:19:16.340 that I think was ever conducted. Um, and the results are shocking and it should change the game. It

00:19:22.540 should equip the Trump administration with what they need in order to take action. Uh, we don't

00:19:27.380 have to have a debate about free speech versus hate speech. Um, if you look at the IRS code, uh,

00:19:33.660 nonprofits are not allowed to be engaging in criminal activity. They're not allowed, uh, possibly to even

00:19:40.240 be encouraging it. If you look at the language, um, and what we have found is many millions of dollars

00:19:46.520 going to go into things like that. And right now I'm holding my hand about 100 pages of evidence

00:19:52.800 that we're about to drop, um, with you. And so I think it's safe to say that today the counteroffensive

00:19:59.640 begins. Yeah, we are going through the a hundred pages ourselves right now. We got it from you last

00:20:06.620 night and, um, and we're furiously going through all of the pages. It's pretty, um, pretty remarkable,

00:20:12.880 uh, what you have found. What is your, um, what's your level of comfort on saying 100% correct?

00:20:22.620 I almost never say this, but it's a hundred percent correct. And to give you an idea of why

00:20:28.740 I'm so confident, uh, there's a related report that I did for Cavaliers Center called marching

00:20:34.320 towards violence, where we mapped out all the groups that were organizing the anti-Semitic,

00:20:38.780 anti-American protests after the October 7th attacks. Uh, and we identified over 150 pro-terrorism

00:20:44.980 groups that basically manufactured all of that. Uh, and this is, this is very similar. There's

00:20:51.200 some overlap. And here is what one of the media outlets connected to that seditionist movement

00:20:57.220 truth out actually said, they said that our report is a quote existential threat that could easily mean

00:21:05.000 a quick death for most of the groups, especially the nonprofits by getting their tax exempt statuses

00:21:11.080 revoked. And those that survive, this group said would suffer what they called mass chaos.

00:21:17.660 So the extremists have told us that we've discovered how to defeat them.

00:21:23.780 You know, it's, it's amazing to me that these guys have gotten away with it for so long. I mean,

00:21:27.960 when I started, you know, going after the tides foundation and showed how the showed America,

00:21:32.720 how the shell game was working, they've only gotten more bold and much, much more dangerous,

00:21:38.980 um, all the way into using our tax dollars to funnel money into overthrowing us. Um, uh,

00:21:46.800 why, why haven't we gotten serious about this until now?

00:21:51.720 I think it's so brazen that it's hard for people to believe that there's actually something bad going

00:21:57.100 on. I mean, there's a few things going on, which is where it's so in your face that people say,

00:22:01.260 well, I mean, if it was really that bad, then someone would have done something about it.

00:22:04.600 And then they looked elsewhere. Um, there have been expositions done about grants going from some

00:22:09.600 of these big billionaire funded organizations, going to these extremist groups, but it comes in

00:22:13.740 drips and draps. Um, so what we've done is we brought it in the case of Soros, brought it all

00:22:17.940 together into one spot, found many, many, many more financial transactions using their own records,

00:22:23.540 uh, in order to illustrate for the first time, I think,

00:22:26.880 so people understand that this is an infrastructure, this is a movement. And as scary as that is, it

00:22:33.220 also means it can be taken down. We can confront them. And this is something that we can win.

00:22:39.900 You know, it was amazing to me. Um, I think there's three countries. I know it's Hungary. I think it's

00:22:45.980 Singapore. And I think there's another one that have banned George Soros and his allies. Uh, you,

00:22:52.460 you, you can't operate in those countries, um, because they know the damage that he does and

00:22:57.680 they know, and they, and they've just said it out loud. Do you think we're going to get to a place

00:23:02.940 to where we can start doing things like that?

00:23:06.760 Well, I think we're at that point. I think when this comes out and people realize that what the

00:23:11.160 IRS code says, a tax exempt organization can do and cannot do, and how blatantly is being crossed

00:23:17.900 that this is no longer a heavy list. It's just a matter of the will of willpower and coordination,

00:23:24.240 making sure everybody that can make something happen actually does it and is all operating.

00:23:29.420 They're all on the same page. Um, and as bad as the threat is, and as quickly as it's escalating,

00:23:35.320 I think we can rapidly push it back. Um, and when people see that like Soros is funding so many

00:23:40.820 groups that endorsed the October 7th attacks, I think you'll even see democratic voting and left-wing

00:23:47.520 supporting groups back away and say, you know what? I don't want to touch this.

00:23:56.220 Uh, we are, uh, like I said, we're going over the research, uh, ourselves and, uh, we'll probably

00:24:02.340 end up doing a, uh, a giant chalkboard on it once we get through it. But I want you to know,

00:24:06.960 I'll personally give it to the president, um, myself to make sure that he sees it because,

00:24:12.180 um, you've done, you've done yeoman's work here, uh, and done a lot of the work for the FBI and

00:24:21.260 everybody else's. I mean, it's, it's not hard to see where it is. It is hard to prove it and to

00:24:29.180 track it down, uh, and make sure that everything is buttoned up and you've done a lot of that work

00:24:33.540 already. So thank you for that. Thank you so much, Glenn. Uh, it's great to know that finally

00:24:39.840 action will be taken with your help and that just for everyone listening out there, like

00:24:43.940 civilians can make a difference. You know, I'd say you don't have to outsource your civic

00:24:47.140 responsibility to the government and assume that they know everything and all the powers in their

00:24:51.120 hands. This is, this is the power of patriotic nonprofit organizations like the one I work for

00:24:57.140 independent civilians can do. You can really make a difference if you want to.

00:25:02.880 Can you talk about, um, occupied turtle Island? I know we've talked about this before, but I'd like

00:25:08.520 you to go into that again, because it kind of goes into what you were, what you're going to talk about

00:25:12.960 here, uh, coming up in a couple of hours. Sure. So, so this is a term that everyone needs to

00:25:19.300 familiarize themselves with, because this is how, you know, when a group is radical, very often our

00:25:24.080 times are hiding it. They will refer to the United States as either the so-called United States or

00:25:28.900 occupied turtle Island. And it comes to this myth that the native Americans before the evil white

00:25:35.100 settlers showed up, refer to the entire continent as turtle Island. And what they do is by referring

00:25:41.620 to the U S as turtle Island, they're saying, we do not recognize the right of the United States to

00:25:45.480 exist. And if you do not have a right to exist, then you should be destroyed. And it's the same

00:25:51.380 template that they use against Israel when they refer to it as occupied Palestine.

00:25:56.860 So these groups that are supposedly just anti-Israel, but then refer to the U S as occupied turtle

00:26:03.000 Island. They have the same exact agenda for both of us. And if you look at the foreign governments

00:26:08.620 that support them, if you look at what the words of the extremists of all kinds say that are part of

00:26:14.660 this movement, their big gamble is that Americans can be triggered, provoked to rip America apart along

00:26:24.000 racial lines, along political lines, and that our civil discourse, our civil society will be so poisoned 0.94

00:26:31.760 that it'll cease to function. And that people will become more like Tyler Robinson supporters and their

00:26:39.440 rhetoric will be more like that. And less like the love you would see from Charlie Kirk. I mean,

00:26:45.020 I mean, you look at some of the longer, even the longer videos of Charlie cook that sometimes didn't

00:26:50.180 always go viral and you can see the love he had for the people who was debating at times. And that

00:26:55.420 for me, I know made me a better person that impacted me more than any opinion he expressed or argued for.

00:27:01.260 I think that's why he affected so many people. He really did love the people he was debating.

00:27:08.880 He really didn't have hatred in his heart for any of them. I mean, you know, he, he became a

00:27:15.660 Christian. He was baptized in 2018, I think, and he lived his faith. He lived his faith and was really

00:27:24.120 trying to live a life very much like Christ. And, you know, not a perfect guy by any stretch of the

00:27:30.720 imagination, but man, better than I am better than I probably have ever been, uh, you know,

00:27:35.940 living his life. Let me, let me ask you about one other thing. Um, let me put a full screen up. Um,

00:27:43.200 this is, uh, Kristen Hawkins, president of students for life, a side by side picture of a Charlie Kirk

00:27:49.620 memorial at UNC Wilmington, one before it was vandalized and one picture now spray painted with

00:27:57.940 trans pride colors. So vandalize after. Have you heard of trans, uh, Trantifa? 0.58

00:28:06.740 I heard that term. I have. Oh yeah. It's like a militia type movement. And they've used that term to

00:28:13.100 describe themselves by the way. So it's not really offensive. How real is Trantifa? How, how extensive

00:28:21.520 is that? And have you seen any funding going toward groups that would call themselves Trantifa?

00:28:29.380 I've seen funding, including from Soros' network going towards groups that ally themselves with

00:28:35.600 Antifa terrorists for sure. We're going to show that. Um, Trantifa would be a subset of that. Uh,

00:28:40.980 so you can make the argument back connection exist. Um, but more broadly, I mean, I've been studying and

00:28:46.300 monitoring extremists and getting to law enforcement intelligence about these types of people

00:28:50.180 for many years, reporting thousands of them. And so I saw this militia type Trantifa movement

00:28:57.300 really growing and it's real. Like I've seen them own MNA gyms. Um, I've seen them doing,

00:29:02.800 they're very pro-gun actually, um, because you have to be to have a militia. Um, and they act,

00:29:10.240 I've seen them actually radicalize what you would consider to be almost like right-wingers with this

00:29:14.900 anarchist rhetoric about minimal government or no government and gun rights. And that's why it's, 0.59

00:29:21.380 the more I monitor this, the more I feel like the framing of some of this needs adjustment because

00:29:26.720 all of these diverse extremists kind of go into one global seditionist movement is what I call it. 0.97

00:29:33.140 All of us, as much as we disagree, have so much more in common with each other

00:29:36.680 than all of these extremists that want to burn everything to the ground.

00:29:41.060 I know, I know, I know. And yet they'll stand together, uh, you know, and plan on killing

00:29:46.760 each other after, you know, they, they win against us. Uh, and for some reason we just

00:29:51.740 can't stand together. Thank you so much, Ryan. I'll talk to you in a couple of hours. Appreciate it.

00:29:56.280 Okay. Thanks, Glenn. Thank you.

00:29:58.120 You bet. Ryan, Ryan is going to be joining me on the Charlie Kirk show because of his relationship

00:30:02.960 with Charlie Kirk. He really wanted to announce it on Charlie's, uh, show. Um, and I think it's

00:30:08.440 absolutely appropriate. Um, but it's, it's big breaking news and it is the key that the president

00:30:16.700 will need to begin to take down George Soros and, uh, a lot of his NGOs. Uh, Ryan seems to have

00:30:24.540 the goods, um, and we'll bring that to you in a couple of hours.

00:30:29.040 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:30:38.100 So we arrived about, uh, four, four 30 this morning at turning point USA, and it is an

00:30:42.840 odd place to be right now. Um, the workers hadn't come in. It was very quiet, very dark.

00:30:48.240 Uh, police still had the streets, uh, blocked off. You had to go through security to get

00:30:52.660 here. Lots of security to get here. Uh, but it's about this time, uh, that people start

00:30:57.660 to funnel in and then, uh, start to go and leave things out on the street in front. And

00:31:03.260 it's a large city block, long, uh, large city block. And, um, and there are the, the, the,

00:31:11.500 the sidewalks are probably what? Eight, 10 feet deep, easy, 10 feet. It's incredible. And

00:31:17.240 it just covered with notes and packages and, and, um, and flowers and balloons and teddy bears.

00:31:23.280 And I mean, it's, it's really incredible what's happening. The outpouring absolute outpouring

00:31:27.940 and you're not just seeing it here. You're seeing it all over the country. And as you

00:31:31.780 mentioned earlier, the world really, really quite remarkable. Pat is, uh, here. Um, he's

00:31:38.140 in our Dallas studios as Stu and I are out in Phoenix. Um, we were just talking about the

00:31:43.440 five lies that are going around about Charlie Kirk. And it is, it's, it's reprehensible on what

00:31:49.600 is going on because the people who are saying these things, who are starting these things,

00:31:53.860 they really need that. I mean, they know, they know like Stephen King, really, you really think

00:32:00.920 that Stephen King, you really think that Charlie Kirk is for the stoning of gay people.

00:32:07.160 I will. I do think though, a lot of these people have, uh, an image of everyone on the right.

00:32:16.520 So that shows how, how unbelievably isolated you are.

00:32:20.600 Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Uh, now King, you know, in particular, I think like, I don't,

00:32:25.520 I don't think Stephen King was lying on that. I think he's, you know, I don't think he's the,

00:32:29.640 you know, the sharpest knife in the, in the, in the drawer.

00:32:32.300 You gotta be. You can't write like he does.

00:32:34.020 He's not an idiot, right? He's not like he informed thoughts, but I think he is so completely

00:32:38.460 isolated in his bubble that, you know, like, you know, if, if someone says something

00:32:42.740 terrible about a person like Charlie Kirk and your image of him is he's basically Hitler,

00:32:50.860 well, what you don't, you don't spend time fact checking it. You're like, oh, of course that guy's

00:32:55.140 that he's that terrible human being. Of course he said something like that. You don't even bother

00:32:59.280 to check it, you know? I mean, and I, you know, it's like, uh, you know, if you, if you ran into a

00:33:04.660 quote from Hitler, you had never seen that was negative on Jews, you, you know, you, as a

00:33:09.640 journalist, you should probably check it, but like, you might think, oh yeah, that was probably true.

00:33:12.920 He said a lot of things like that. That's how they think about people who are like normal

00:33:17.240 conservatives who want lower taxes and less regulation. And that is really, really disturbing.

00:33:24.300 So these lies are really prominent. People really believe these things.

00:33:27.920 So there's a couple of, here's the, here are the five. Uh, the first one is Charlie Kirk said

00:33:33.160 black people were better off in slavery. How big of an idiot do you think you have to be to believe 0.79

00:33:38.680 that? Okay. I mean, unless you're Crockett, unless your last name is Crockett and I don't mean Davey,

00:33:44.580 uh, uh, black Americans were better off than slavery. No, that's absolutely no true. Not true. He never

00:33:54.800 said anything like that. Now, um, what he, what you're probably getting this from, and I'm going

00:34:01.880 searching. I mean, I am on a metal, I'm with a metal detector on the beach with, you know,

00:34:06.920 board shorts and sandals and socks looking for anything that kind of even sounds like that.

00:34:12.360 But Charlie Kirk did say that, you know, they were talking about Jim Crow and how evil Jim Crow was.

00:34:18.200 Um, uh, but he said, but if you look at the family, the black family before the passage of the civil

00:34:26.280 rights act, which ended the Jim Crow laws, he said the family was thriving. Um, and it was,

00:34:34.160 it was blacks had a lower divorce rate than whites did in, I think, 1961. Um, they, uh, uh,

00:34:44.160 their families were stronger. Dads were in the homes. They had a lower crime rates. I mean,

00:34:50.600 it, something happened around the time of the civil rights act. Now, my theory is the civil rights act

00:34:57.540 was a, uh, was done by progressives. I mean, these are the guys who said no to the civil rights act

00:35:04.840 just four years before and, and, and worked hard to stop the civil rights act. So what changed in those

00:35:11.160 four years, the assassination of president Kennedy, that changed your mind? Not even, not even. Um,

00:35:19.300 I mean, uh, Johnson was the biggest racist up until he, uh, up until he died. Why would he create the

00:35:25.160 great society? My theory, this is just a theory, but my theory is, is because finally the progressives

00:35:32.560 had a way to, um, keep, um, keep blacks under their thumb and destroy the family and destroy them 1.00

00:35:39.300 as people. I mean, the civil rights act and the more of the great society, the great society did

00:35:46.160 more damage to the black family than, than, than anybody could have done outside of Margaret Sanger. 0.86

00:35:52.640 I think that's what he meant, uh, by that. It was evil, uh, you know, Jim Crow, et cetera, et cetera. 0.61

00:36:02.160 But if you look at the numbers on specifics, family, et cetera, et cetera, blacks were doing better

00:36:09.040 as families before the great society. And I think that undoing is absolutely, um,

00:36:16.820 is absolutely tied to it. And it was intentional myself. I believe that. Um, also the next claim

00:36:24.280 is that, uh, that, uh, Charlie Kirk said black women have inferior intelligence. Uh, no, that's 1.00

00:36:30.520 not what he said. Now they're quoting him saying that black women don't have the brain processing

00:36:35.720 power to otherwise be taken really seriously. How, how bad does your image have to be of people

00:36:46.040 on the other side to believe that they could say that that Charlie Kirk could say that?

00:36:50.940 I mean, just like, but if you were to, you know, I think about this a lot of times when

00:36:55.060 I think about how we react to crazy statements on the left, like my reaction, a lot of times

00:37:01.000 when I hear someone saying that is, wait a minute. Yes. He, even if they believe that they

00:37:06.960 wouldn't just blurt it out. What, what is the context of this? I want to know. I want to

00:37:10.780 understand that should be your first question when you want to do a quote like that.

00:37:14.360 Go to Snopes. They rate this one. True. This is true. They read, they rate it. Absolutely

00:37:18.700 true. Until you get to the last paragraph when they say, well, no, we should point out

00:37:24.960 he wasn't talking about all black women. Okay. He was talking about four specific black 0.94

00:37:30.420 women. Oh, okay. Oh, so sorry about Joy Reed. Absolutely true. Sheila Jackson Lee. Absolutely 0.99

00:37:38.940 true. Ketanji Brown Jackson, Jackson Brown. Absolutely true. Well, she's not a biologist.

00:37:46.280 I mean, come on. She's not. She doesn't know how to, what a, what a woman is. I'm not a 1.00

00:37:49.640 biologist. I don't know how to do that. Yeah. Um, and Michelle Obama, which I don't think

00:37:54.560 is true. I think Michelle Obama is actually, uh, rather smart and conniving and, and just

00:37:59.780 flat out evil. Yeah. There's a mix there. I mean, I, Ketanji Brown Jackson, you know, for

00:38:03.700 all, for all of the flaws I would have with her as a Supreme court justice, obviously

00:38:06.820 isn't a moron, but she is, I mean, well, I would say Sotomayor, you could, I would be

00:38:11.880 more confident in saying she's a moron though. I am for, for the job that she has. Ketanji

00:38:17.700 Brown Jackson is a moron. Uh, you know, Joy Reed is a complete idiot. Uh, was it Sheila 1.00

00:38:23.460 Jackson Lee? Yeah. Again, those two, I think would fall into the same category. And you're

00:38:27.240 right. Michelle Obama, I would not, I would not call an idiot. Um, but you know, again,

00:38:31.960 criticizing four members of a group does not mean you're criticizing the group. He, he

00:38:38.740 was criticizing people he thought, uh, were unqualified to make statements of, of any

00:38:45.940 intelligence on whatever topic it was that he was talking about. And what they did is

00:38:51.060 they said, he thinks that all black women are just dumb. I mean, that is so incredibly

00:38:56.180 dishonest. Um, Charlie Kirk said that gun deaths, unfortunately worth it to keep the

00:39:01.940 second amendment. This is, this is one I've heard actually a lot. This is one that a lot

00:39:06.800 of people on the left are using as justification for their celebration. He said, you know, uh,

00:39:14.620 well, you just got to deal with the deaths if you want to have a second amendment. And I,

00:39:19.800 you know, I don't know if you have the context. I have, I have, I have his answer right here.

00:39:23.900 Ready? You will never live in a society where you have an armed citizenry and you won't have

00:39:29.660 a single gun death. That's nonsense. It's drivel, but I am, um, uh, I think it's worth it. I think

00:39:38.600 it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year. So you can have the

00:39:46.280 second amendment right to protect your other God given rights. It's a prudent deal. It is rational

00:39:52.780 to think that way. I mean, and every time if you have a free society, you take risks with it. There

00:40:00.880 will always be people, horrible, horrible human beings that all seem to donate to Democrat causes

00:40:06.500 that will do things like we saw one week ago today. And that is, you know, I, I, again, I can't,

00:40:15.820 you can't speak for Charlie Kirk. He spoke for himself so eloquently, but you know, he, this,

00:40:20.900 what, what, even what occurred last week would not change his mind on that. He even, even he would

00:40:27.220 not say, well, we should, now that something terrible has happened to me and my family,

00:40:30.920 we should overturn the second amendment and people shouldn't have a right to defend themselves.

00:40:35.400 You know, that's how he would feel about it. And he, this is, if anything, pointing to his

00:40:40.580 incredible consistency on the rights that we have in this country. Uh, you know, it is a sad,

00:40:47.660 sad, unfortunate fact about so many things. It's a sad, unfortunate fact about automobile travel

00:40:52.400 that you do have to deal with some automobile accidents when you have, uh, highways where you

00:40:57.780 can drive 55, 65, 75 miles an hour. We all understand that. It's unreasonable. It's unreasonable

00:41:03.380 to think that you could live in a, in a, uh, a society with automobiles and not have some automobile

00:41:09.900 accidents. It is absolutely true. That is exactly what he said about guns. And frankly, the other thing

00:41:15.080 that's important here to understand is if you did eliminate all guns, you would not eliminate all

00:41:21.040 murders. Even if they did in, they did in England. Oh, they did. They're all set. They're all set.

00:41:26.380 There's no murder there. No violent crimes there. I keep reading about them. Is that all false?

00:41:31.400 It's all false. That's, you know, that's, yeah, that's Donald Trump. You know what I mean?

00:41:35.380 Yeah. And it is crazy. Last one, Charlie used an Asian slur. Now I'm not going to use the slur.

00:41:41.920 Obviously, I'm just going to say it's what happens sometimes with armor. Uh, there's a

00:41:47.860 very famous saying about armor that has nothing to do with the Chinese or Asian at all. Um, but

00:41:54.960 I'm not even going to put those together in this, in this context now for you. Uh, you'll

00:41:58.940 have to figure that out. Um, but, uh, the, the thing that's going around is he used that

00:42:04.880 slur to yell at an Asian woman in the audience. Now, again, what kind of monster or how should 0.97

00:42:12.920 you should know on, on its face? That's false. Yeah. You shouldn't even have to look it up.

00:42:16.300 I mean, how stupid would Charlie Kirk have to be? Okay. Um, and so, you know, there's,

00:42:22.260 there's nothing, uh, there's nothing like that. Well, I'm sorry. He was screaming something

00:42:27.460 at a woman, uh, when they were talking about capitalism and he was yelling sank.

00:42:40.280 Not the other word. Okay. Okay. Say, and who is that from the young Turk guy from young 1.00

00:42:45.680 Turk. Right. Yeah. That's, that's what he was, that's what he was saying. Oh, okay. Gosh.

00:42:50.740 I mean, that's just so bad. You know, like the, uh, the other one was the Stephen King,

00:42:55.360 uh, situation where he quoted some horrible thing that Charlie Kirk said. And again, he admitted

00:43:00.940 eventually, uh, that, that it was false, but it was, it was, uh, he was quoting someone

00:43:06.840 else, uh, in an incident and, and critiquing that position, uh, which was a bad position,

00:43:14.100 but he was, that was, he was bringing it up to quote it and critique it, which is a very

00:43:17.560 standard thing that they've done on the left. I mean, this is a standard, uh,

00:43:20.480 tactic of media matters when you're quoting someone else or you're saying something they'll,

00:43:24.420 they'll act as if you say, you repeat a lie often enough and the public will re will remember it.

00:43:29.080 Glenn Beck is quoting Hitler. Glenn Beck loves Hitler. Yeah. Hitler said that, but that's not who,

00:43:35.200 that's not what I was saying. It had nothing to do with the conversation for the love of Pete.

00:43:39.120 Again, if you had something against Charlie Kirk, you wouldn't need to go to this stuff.

00:43:43.460 If, if, if, if our opinion of Kirk, which was a guy who, who worked hard to debate people,

00:43:50.480 who tried to practice politics and civic life, the right way, who tried to be a shining light for

00:43:57.860 his faith, which was vitally important to him and his family. If that vision of Charlie Kirk was false,

00:44:03.460 you wouldn't need to go to these things. No, you could come up with 50 different things. He said

00:44:07.880 that were really offensive. Yep. Instead, what you come up with are lies because that's what you're in

00:44:13.060 the business of. And, uh, there is a problem. The, we now know, um, and we'll have more on this, uh,

00:44:20.700 later today on the Charlie Kirk show and then, uh, on tomorrow. Uh, but, um, we now know that the

00:44:27.260 Chinese and Russia are involved with disinformation campaigns based on Charlie Kirk, trying to get us

00:44:33.680 to push us into civil war and we know it for a fact now. So just be very careful what you read

00:44:39.420 online and, um, and don't necessarily repeat everything that you see.
