Glenn Beck and Stephen Moore join me to talk about President Trump's speech on immigration and tariffs. Also, the woman up in the gallery that the school was transitioning her daughter without her knowing, January Littlejohn, joins me and we talk about tariffs.
00:05:23.560The chamber erupted with that, or at least half of it did, because the real story, I think, that we have to talk about is the planned and coordinated action or reaction or inaction of the Democrats.
00:05:41.820They just sat there, some with their union-printed signs or dressed in all pink for some unknown reason, some kind of statement that nobody knew about or really honestly care.
00:05:53.160They just sat there almost throughout the entire thing without moving.
00:05:57.820When Trump spoke of bringing the hostages back from Gaza, Americans reunited with their families, you would think everybody in the chamber would be like, okay, that was a good one.
00:18:50.560They led a coalition of 17 organizations in a legislative effort to protect children from the obscene materials in schools, reinforcing the importance of parental oversight and moral education.
00:19:02.620And just last year, the Liberty Challenge, they raised $200,000, a milestone that directly funds the launch of eight new micro-schools.
00:19:13.620They're innovative, God-centered learning environments and are empowering Florida families with real alternatives to educational options.
00:19:21.140You can get your tickets now at goflca.org.
00:19:31.620So you can also call 239-250-3320 and get your tickets.
00:19:36.580I will see you there in Florida on Friday.
00:19:41.920Last night, it was pretty amazing to see the people that were in the gallery.
00:19:49.000January Little John is one of those people.
00:19:52.440When her 13-year-old daughter was captured by the idea that she was born in the wrong body instead of helping her learn to love who she was, her school decided to affirm her self-hate and said, you know what?
00:20:11.480The school helped her change her pronouns, pick new bathrooms, even decide if she wanted to sleep with boys on overnight trips, all without parental consent.
00:20:59.000And you have mental health background.
00:21:01.000So you had to be shocked that people in the school, people in your own field, just adopted this transgender ideology and ran with it like it was, of course, that's what it is.
00:21:16.020Of course, this is all common knowledge.
00:21:18.740Were you as shocked as the rest of us were?
00:21:32.820I was volunteer of the year at the middle school where they socially transitioned my daughter.
00:21:38.560And so I had no idea that not only had my field, the school system, the medical field, even our judicial branch, I had no idea I had been infiltrated by this radical ideology.
00:21:50.420And to clarify something, at the time of the social transition plan that they did with my daughter, without our knowledge or consent, she was identifying as non-binary.
00:22:00.380And so her identity changed four times over two years.
00:23:04.900And that's why the work that do no harm is so important, what they're doing, because we have to re-educate.
00:23:10.880We have to root this ideology out of our institutions, because the bottom line is the U.S. is now an outlier in how we are treating this mental health issue.
00:23:20.220This is a mental health issue, Glenn, that has been normalized, promoted and even celebrated.
00:23:26.680My daughter was told she was brave, Glenn, and she wanted to cut her breasts off at age 13.
00:23:32.320That is unfathomable what they were doing.
00:23:35.760And to be fair, it was very similar to when I used to treat clients with anorexia.
00:23:42.080There are so many parallels to the association these girls feel and go through, and the same type of disassociation with an eating disorder.
00:23:52.220It was heartbreaking, and it felt like we were in the twilight zone, because my husband and I were the only ones in our daughter's life trying to protect her from this irreversible medical pathway that this school put her on.
00:24:04.620So what was it that, because when people had anorexia, when that was a really big thing, immediately everybody was like, it's the magazines, it's the TV shows, it's the images that we're showing girls that's unreasonable.
00:24:20.320And so there was something that caused that.
00:24:23.460This time they just said, no, it's normal to feel that way, when it was never normal to feel that way.
00:24:28.540It's normal to feel that way, and let's go.
00:25:03.180And this notion of people having a, quote, gender identity that is separate from their sex, that they choose to be a boy, girl, neither or both, which is what is being taught to our children now, that was non-existent.
00:25:16.560So this has all been laid out for our children.
00:25:20.540They are creating confusion where no previous confusion were to have occurred.
00:25:25.160And this is not happening organically.
00:25:27.980So, again, we have to inoculate our children from this insidious ideology and the lies of gender identity itself.
00:25:34.520You know, doctors will say, experts will say, if your child comes home and says that, just embrace it because they're going to kill themselves if they don't, which is just the scariest thing.
00:25:44.720And as parents who never dealt with anything like this before, we just don't know what to do.
00:25:50.700We accept love on our children and make sure we have a relationship where they're talking to us.
00:26:04.480Even WPATH doctors admit there is no evidence.
00:26:08.040Chase Stranglio admitted in front of the Supreme Court in this committee oral hearing.
00:26:13.100There is no evidence these children will commit suicide if not immediately or firm or social or medically transition.
00:26:19.420In fact, the research shows, Glenn, that the vast majority of these kids will desist just like my daughter did.
00:26:26.040They will come to feel comfortable in the body they were born in if you do not socially or medically transition them.
00:26:33.200Again, this is a mental health issue, and it is unbelievable that doctors were cutting the breast off of girls as young as 12 years old in our country and sterilizing children, many of whom had co-occurring significant mental health issues, including autism.
00:26:49.280I will tell you that Trump has signed an executive order saying there are only two genders.
00:28:01.840I literally went from being a door holder, just like I do every week, to getting on a plane to Washington, D.C. and heading to the White House.
00:28:11.360And, you know, to be honest, as exciting as it was, I was standing there not just on behalf of what my family went through,
00:28:17.840but on behalf of all families and the irreversible harm they have experienced because of this insidious ideology.
00:28:24.340So I felt the weight and the gravity because I still get called weekly from parents waking up to this nightmare whose children have been captured, weekly.
00:28:34.560And I'm sure you're aware, Glenn, we have states now that are taking children from loving parents.
00:28:40.720Simply because they will not affirm this lie.
00:28:42.960So we are still in crisis in this country, and President Trump and their administration are taking incredible steps, but we have much work to be done.
00:28:50.940Do you have any faith that Congress will codify any of this?
00:28:55.080I mean, he's talking about criminalizing sex change operations on children, which, again, is insane that you would have to do that, but we do.
00:29:02.360But the more insane thing is I think that may not pass because of, you know, some people in Congress.
00:29:10.280I would hope it would get every Republican vote, but it would probably not get a single Democrat vote.
00:29:17.120Is that going to happen, do you think?
00:29:20.060Well, if you saw the vote the other day, not one Democrat voted to protect girls' sports.
00:29:38.840But what I think needs to happen is we need to get down to the merits of these interventions themselves, because even Scrametti at the Supreme Court is really just about states' rights and do they have a constitutional right to restrict these interventions on children.
00:29:53.280We have to get to where we are arguing the actual merits of these interventions.
00:29:57.560And we know from evidence and systematic reviews that the risks far outweigh the benefits, not that we need evidence to tell us that sterilizing children before they have the ability and maturity to consent to this is a bad idea.
00:30:12.360You know, I'm sorry, I hate to bring this up again, but I'm fascinated when a regular person, because I felt this the first time I went to the White House and every time I go to the White House, it's a surreal experience.
00:30:26.620When you got to Washington, they take you to the White House.
00:30:29.500Do you all, the people in the gallery that were invited, do you all meet?
00:30:32.640And is it the First Lady that welcomes you?
00:30:38.960So we did, and I'm sure you saw last night, there was such a diverse amount of people from all walks of life, Lynn, and it was really incredible.
00:30:47.780And many of them had truly tragic stories.
00:30:50.580But I truly feel that God is using their pain for purpose, just like God did for my family.
00:30:55.220And it was a really amazing experience, you know, that little boy DJ that the Democrats just were so ugly about.
00:31:03.460That little boy brought so much joy, and he hugged every single person he encountered.
00:31:09.800That is what the American spirit is about.
00:31:12.360His father could not have been more proud.
00:31:15.080And for the Democrats to say that that was somehow negative is just ridiculous.
00:31:19.540All they're doing is playing politics.
00:31:20.960It was a beautiful evening, and I was so proud to be there.
00:31:25.920Mrs. Trump, the First Lady, she plays a role in turning this around, doesn't she?
00:31:36.740Well, both her and the Second Lady, you know, I had a chance to sit near both of them last night.
00:31:41.680That was an extraordinary honor I never thought I would have.
00:31:44.740And they were so kind, down to earth, and you can just tell they love their families.
00:31:50.500This administration is all about restoring the American family, putting a family-first agenda, and I could not be more happy and proud to be a part of that.
00:31:59.460You know, we all have our role to play, and some people, it's a bigger role than others.
00:32:10.160We're all born for a reason, and we were born perfect with everything that we need, you know, from God to be able to accomplish those things.
00:32:21.760And I can't thank you enough, January, for the courage that you and your family have shown, and the grace that you have shown to stand up and change the world.
00:32:49.020They represent physicians, nurses, medical students, patients, policymakers, everybody, anybody that can focus, keep them focused on keeping identity politics out of our medical education,
00:32:59.960our research, and our clinical practice and out of our schools, it's DoNoHarmMedicine.org, and you can follow at JanuaryDoNoHarm, follow January on X, at JanuaryDoNoHarm.
00:33:15.320You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:33:25.620I can't stop smiling after that speech last night.
00:33:27.940And I've been, I've lived through a lot of, well, that wasn't really technically a State of the Union speech, but it was very much like one.
00:33:34.780And that was one of the, a superb speech.
00:33:37.860I think everybody's talking about the rude and obnoxious behavior of the Democrats.
