00:00:00.000 You know it's becoming exhausting buying food from companies that want your money
00:00:03.960 but don't want to tell you where anything is made or anything much about it.
00:00:08.400 You pick up a package, you squint at the label,
00:00:10.800 and somehow you still need a private investigator to figure out what you're actually bringing home for dinner.
00:00:16.120 It shouldn't be like that. It shouldn't be hard.

00:03:38.780 has to be cleared up because it is all about this assassination culture that we're in i don't

00:04:59.000 that's RushTaxResolution.com. All righty. Well, let's see. What do we got going on today? What
00:05:07.780 kind of crazy things is America up to today? Well, I would like, before I start this story,
00:05:14.140 I would like to suggest that if you've committed any kind of federal crime, if you're trying to,
00:05:25.260 you know, if you're doing robbery, fine, whatever. But if you are somebody that's in the government
00:05:30.560 that has committed a crime or you are being prosecuted by the government for some sort of
00:05:38.260 crime, you know, some political crime, I think we should have a new lottery. I don't think if you
00:05:43.740 are being tried in the District of Columbia, I don't think you can get a fair trial. I really
00:05:47.600 don't. And so I really think we should start having lotteries. Now, I know the Constitution
00:05:52.900 says it has to happen, you know, inside of where the crime was committed, yada, yada. But too much
00:05:59.220 crime is happening in Washington, D.C. And too many things are happening where the judges are
00:06:03.160 like, you know, I don't really think that's a problem. OK, so you had a gun and a knife and
00:06:08.220 you were going in to kill a whole bunch of people. But let me hug it out. I really think I mean,
00:06:13.620 you might get the District of Columbia like a lottery. You go in, you might get the District
00:06:18.100 of Columbia, you might also get a judge and a jury in some East Jesus, Kentucky, where the people
00:06:25.720 aren't really, you know, kind of all down with a DEI hug it out kind of stuff. You know what I'm
00:06:30.220 saying? So you have a chance of getting the hugging judge or the hanging judge. What do you
00:06:38.400 say? Can we compromise on that? Maybe? I mean, I'm not saying we have to eliminate all hugging
00:06:43.340 judges i would like to but i'd like to be reasonable and say you just have a shot at
00:06:48.860 getting the hanging judge the latest radical charge now with this trying to assassinate the
00:06:54.540 president donald trump cole thomas allen has by the way have you ever noticed assassins always
00:06:59.440 have three names uh he walks into a court and what happens come here you come here you're not
00:07:06.120 what'd you do? The magistrate judge ZM Faruqi.
00:07:18.460 I guess I was so many things. I don't even know where to start with the name. Okay. But anyway,
00:07:22.800 he comes into Faruqi's courtroom and he doesn't just, he doesn't just, he doesn't, well, first,
00:07:31.420 So he doesn't scold the guy who actually did anything.
00:07:34.640 He scolds the jail and apologizes to the would-be assassin.
00:07:40.620 I'm sorry.
00:07:42.340 Jeez, whatever you've been through, I apologize for the prior week.
00:07:46.900 Wait, what?
00:07:48.040 What?
00:07:49.160 Are we talking to the same guy here?
00:07:50.820 I mean, I would be standing in the courtroom going, Your Honor,
00:07:53.600 wait, you might have this guy come in.
00:07:55.040 This is the guy who went to the White House Correspondents' Dinner,
00:07:57.160 arm to the teeth shotgun handgun knives fires at a secret service agent almost point blank would
00:08:04.200 have killed him if he wasn't wearing a vest he had planned it for weeks remember that guy i think
00:08:08.360 that's this who you're talking about no i'm not confused i'm not confused i know exactly who he
00:08:13.560 is now he's not a kid he's not confused kid this is just the latest of attempts to decapitate the
00:08:21.820 leadership of the United States of America to blow a hole through the heart of the Republic.
00:08:27.780 Kind of a big deal. You know what I mean? It's not like I went into CVS and I stole some gum.
00:08:34.240 And the judge is there. He's wringing his hands. Oh my gosh. Was he on suicide watch?
00:08:41.540 And he had to be escorted into the shower wearing a padded vest. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.
00:08:47.680 Now, there is one thing that I didn't like.
00:08:49.660 He asked for a Bible.
00:08:51.260 He wasn't given a Bible.
00:08:52.380 He should have been given a Bible.
00:08:53.500 What is the problem with that?
00:08:54.380 Why aren't we doing that?
00:08:55.480 Oh, I know.
00:08:56.420 Because we're an insane town where everybody in Washington, D.C. hates Christians.
00:09:03.100 So why would you give him a Bible?
00:09:04.980 Give him a Bible.
00:09:06.200 Maybe he'd come up with something like, hey, wait a minute.
00:09:08.980 I shouldn't have done that.
00:09:09.800 now faruki
00:09:13.040 looks at the conditions and he says with a straight face my gosh you came in here you
00:09:22.920 you were escorted into the shower they thought you were going to kill yourself and they escort
00:09:27.480 you you had to wear a padded vest the whole time well this treatment is worse than what anybody on
00:09:32.500 january 6 god what let me remind you for years the dc jail is has been a disgrace and everybody
00:09:44.880 knows it it's filthy it's violent uh you know we could get into the reports of sewage mold
00:09:50.920 denied medical care and yes restricted religious access especially for the january 6 defendants
00:09:59.400 okay and many of those were oh my gosh they were violent grandmothers they were violent grandmothers
00:10:05.020 who walk through the door an open door yep some of them were held pre-trial pre-trial in solitary
00:10:14.260 like conditions for months denied basic rights and it took their their complaints to finally force
00:10:21.640 the u.s marshals inspector to expose the rot for everybody but it took months for that to happen
00:10:28.300 this guy's been sitting in jail for a week by the way the january 6 i don't remember i don't
00:10:35.540 remember the january 6 grandmother writing well i'm gonna put my knitting down and then i'm gonna
00:10:40.160 kill all of the people that are running the country no they weren't trying to murder the
00:10:44.660 president some of them were really bad people but a lot of the people who went to jail on january 6
00:10:51.380 and were in solitary confinement they were exercising what they believed their first
00:10:55.800 amendment rights were on January 6th. And yes, yes, some faced much worse than what Ellen is
00:11:01.120 griping about. Lockdown 23 hours a day, families blocked, lawyers fighting for basic humanity,
00:11:08.040 lawyers trying just to see their own client in jail. So the record is really pretty clear here,
00:11:14.660 Farouki. The outrage over January 6th, those conditions were real. It's documented. And it
00:11:22.640 was worse in many cases because it was dragged on and on and on and on and no one would put a
00:11:28.880 spotlight on it but faruki he knows because he handled a lot of those cases himself so he knows
00:11:36.820 the history he detained some he fined others heavily but now the man who literally pulled
00:11:44.920 the trigger in an attempt on trump's life he's comparing well i was gonna say apples to oranges
00:11:50.780 but it's not even apple storages it's apples and hand grenades so he throws in a dig about
00:11:57.160 pardons not erasing history gosh what what is going on here what is going i'd like to move
00:12:06.100 that we have a lottery system and keep trials out of the district of columbia because i don't even
00:12:11.860 think it's america anymore at least in the least in the court system i don't even know what they're
00:12:16.520 doing this is a job judge in the swamp treating a direct threat to the president of the united
00:12:24.260 states with kid gloves while the system crushed grandma and dads for far less
00:12:30.920 i don't know about you but i think attempting to assassinate the president
00:12:39.100 isn't a protest okay it's an act of war against the republic it's aiming to decapitate the power
00:12:48.420 structure that keeps the country free cole allen doesn't deserve an apology from the bench he
00:12:55.540 deserves the full weight of the law secure detention until a jury decides and if he is
00:13:01.580 guilty and i don't know how you get out of the guilty thing we have him on tape doing all of
00:13:05.940 those things. We have him on tape saying he's going to do all of those things. We have his
00:13:11.180 written letter saying it. We have his family also say, oh, he was trying to do all these things.
00:13:17.560 I don't know. I don't know how you're going to find him, you know, not guilty, but believe me
00:13:21.980 in New York, I mean, in Washington, DC, they'll find a way. You should get the maximum sentence
00:13:26.720 here. Judge Faruqi, with all due respect to the robe, and because it looks lovely on you,
00:13:33.820 it does. Your comments reveal a dangerous softness at exactly the wrong moment. We don't need judges
00:13:42.040 apologizing to assassins. We need judges who protect the innocent, deter the violent, and
00:13:50.120 remember that equal justice means treating threats to the president that you don't like with all the
00:13:55.660 seriousness that it demands and all the seriousness you would give to the threat to a president that
00:14:01.860 you do like? And notice the difference between those who were not carrying guns and knives and
00:14:09.860 threatening to kill the president and those who did. I mean, if this is the standard in DC, then
00:14:16.400 yes, Congress, the courts, the American people, you have to demand accountability. The rule of
00:14:22.940 law is not optional. I know a lot of people think it is, but it's not. And it should never be when
00:14:29.040 the target is the leader of the free world. Not ever. Farouki, you sound like a dessert and maybe
00:14:40.720 you'd be a lovely dessert. Would you like a little more Farouki? Oh, I don't know. I've just had so
00:14:47.220 much Dubai chocolate. I don't know if I could have a bite of Farouki. No, no, you've got to have it.
00:14:52.120 Oh, there's nothing like Dubai chocolate and a little Farouki on the side. I'd love to impeach
00:14:57.800 you but that's not the way it works unfortunately with your gig but america you better start
00:15:05.200 recognizing not left or right right and wrong because this is 100 wrong but it doesn't stop
00:15:13.160 there and that's the good thing about my job i could go on and on and on because the insanity
00:15:17.900 never seems to stop more in a minute let me tell you about patriot mobile the people who founded
00:15:23.320 this country understood that the best way to exist in society was to strive towards a balance
00:15:27.820 of freedom and moral responsibility oh i remember when i was young and naive try not to take this
00:15:36.600 for granted try to do business with those people who feel the same way because freedom isn't
00:15:41.180 something you just talk about on holidays or hang on a wall in a frame it shows up in everyday
00:15:45.980 decisions shows up with people who you trust people you support where does your money go
00:15:52.060 what kind of help what kind of uh country that you help strengthen is is all based on the um
00:16:00.480 choices that you make one of the reasons why i like patriot mobile they provide dependable
00:16:05.160 nationwide coverage competitive pricing u.s based customer service but they also support causes that
00:16:10.460 defend faith family free speech and freedom so if you're already paying for phone service each
00:16:16.040 month why not pay a company that respects the values that made this country worth you know
00:16:19.840 building in the first place go to patriot mobile.com slash beck or 972 patriot use the promo code beck

00:16:34.460 okay let me give you a couple of other stories here
00:16:49.840 a lockdown at the white house was uh was caused by u.s secret service officer shooting a suspicious
00:16:56.800 armed individual who shot a juvenile according to the secret service deputy director reporters say
00:17:04.220 they uh were ushered from the north lawn of the white house to a press briefing room after the
00:17:09.340 lockdown was called at about 3 30 yesterday whether it was directed to the president or not
00:17:15.040 we don't know but we'll find out i got a lot of confidence in you secret service i'm sure you're
00:17:19.160 on it uh the plainclothes officer who was patrolling the white house perimeter observed
00:17:24.440 that the suspicious adult male had a visual print of a firearm not far from the white house complex
00:17:32.080 is that a gun in your pocket um several uniform secret service police officers then confronted
00:17:38.740 the man he tried to flee on foot and then fired in the direction of the officers they fired back
00:17:43.920 and struck the man man was transported to a hospital quinn had no comment on his condition
00:17:48.600 oh can we hold him and cradle him and just sing him sing him really sweet songs because i would
00:17:54.460 hate to have him go in front of faruki he also noted the motorcade for vice president jd vance
00:18:00.240 had just driven before the incident whether or not it was directed to the president or vice
00:18:03.840 president we don't know but we'll find out blah blah blah okay so yet another armed attempt at
00:18:10.220 shooting somebody in our government congratulations on that all of you on the left must be so happy
00:18:17.860 and so proud because i can understand it i can understand how they get there oh really because
00:18:22.760 i'm going to get to that here in a second uh let's see we also have um democratic california
00:18:29.100 representative ted lou who posted 86 47 on his x account sunday oh that's funny that's funny
00:18:38.740 because the whole country is saying james comey didn't know what that meant he didn't know that
00:18:44.920 that was a threat to the president of the United States. And because of that debate, Ted Lou knows
00:18:51.880 exactly what it means, but he's like, you know what? It's going to be funny anyway, if I say it,
00:18:58.320 especially after everybody's trying to kill the president over and over and over again.
00:19:02.860 Oh no, I just, we should turn down the rhetoric in this country, but we've got to start with the
00:19:08.580 Republicans first. Thanks Ted. Uh, let's see. So we have an assassination attempt. Another guy in
00:19:13.700 the White House with a gun. Then we also have Ted Lieu. What else do we have? Oh, we have the
00:19:19.240 graffiti on the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The feds are investigating who spray-painted
00:19:28.460 8647 on the Reflecting Pool. Oh, again, probably some prankster. That's it. Probably just some
00:19:38.320 prankster he didn't know what he was doing uh then we also have um the non-violent leftist
00:19:45.600 raymond chandler
00:19:50.420 uh he's from pittsburgh
00:19:55.120 um he just left a voicemail it says i want you to put that firearm firearm to the president's head
00:20:03.740 and pull the trigger oh crazy rabbit tricks are for kids oh and then somebody else finally finally
00:20:14.380 finally um we got a guy who's a brewer he's uh a leftist from wisconsin kind of redundant there
00:20:25.580 isn't it um and he was saying you know gosh darn it gosh darn it another one failed on the
00:20:33.060 assassination attempt and so uh he said he he's filed paper to papers to become the next governor
00:20:42.100 of wisconsin but he he he's also i mean he could really well he's a patriot because he said free
00:20:50.140 beer for anybody who actually kills the president oh well there's a strange incentive but no big
00:20:58.600 deal right right got free beer day we almost got it that's what he said we almost got a free beer
00:21:07.160 day um you know either a brother or a sister in the resistance needs to work on their marksmanship
00:21:15.640 or trump's just faked another assassination to get a positive news cycle we'll never know
00:21:21.920 but we stand ready to put up free beer on the day that it happens and this guy's still this
00:21:28.260 guy is still walking around this guy is now running for governor of wisconsin congratulations
00:21:34.100 democrats you really have no you've you've got the best of the best you do you have the best of the
00:21:40.220 best do you see what you've turned into is it beginning to imprint on anybody because it is
00:21:47.380 it is on half the country i don't know how you're missing it um but it's it's making you into a very
00:21:54.580 dangerous group of people. I would suggest that if you are a Democrat and you don't vote like me
00:22:02.520 and you don't agree with me, you at least start saying online and you make it very, very clear.
00:22:08.120 I'm not for any of this. I'm against all of this. I think this kind of, I don't like Trump. I don't
00:22:16.260 like his whatever. You'd say whatever you want, but I am not for gunplay. I'm not for free beer
00:22:23.140 to assassinate i'm not for these jokes i'm not for any of this can we get an amen from a single
00:22:32.260 democrat just i just want regular people i don't expect this from the politicians they're so far
00:22:36.960 their soul has been sold so long ago to the dark side you're never going to see them do anything
00:22:42.600 you're never going to see them turn around they'll only turn around or pretend to turn around
00:22:47.640 if their voters actually start to turn on them and say you know what i could vote for
00:22:52.200 all kinds of different tax policies i can even go some marxist ways but i am not going down the road
00:22:58.220 of death to anybody who disagrees with me just not going to i know history enough to know where

00:23:37.680 that there's so many choices so many plans so many details and it starts to feel less and less
00:23:41.900 like a decision and more like a test you didn't study for and if you're a business owner the
00:23:47.100 consequences of making a wrong decision could be really dire pick the wrong plan you end up paying

00:25:01.000 So I normally stay away from these things like the plague. I don't like it when, you know,
00:25:07.500 hosts go after each other i don't know charlemagne the god i i you know i'm sure he's a pleasant man
00:25:14.020 um uh you know but i i don't i don't know him at all i i was in new york uh last week and he said
00:25:23.060 something that you know i understand the shooter and how the shooter got there and i responded to
00:25:28.840 i don't understand i you know and he didn't understand my point um i said i you know i
00:25:34.440 understand people feeling like you know being hit with the economy i understand that completely
00:25:40.060 um but i don't i don't understand how you that makes you want to kill the president of the
00:25:46.400 united states and um so he responded i think yesterday or something and so i i don't i don't
00:25:52.960 want to respond to him directly today because it's not about him and me this is this is important
00:25:58.260 to set the record straight because he doesn't seem to get it and a lot of people don't seem to get it
00:26:04.860 and it's a very important point so let me start with what he said yesterday about my point here he
00:26:12.040 is you know who glenn beck is right i know who glenn beck is right he was recently having a
00:26:18.680 conversation on his radio show i believe about some of my comments in regards to the shooting
00:26:24.780 that happened at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
00:26:27.200 Now, I made some comments about that situation.
00:26:29.320 My comments were simple.
00:26:30.840 There is no place for political violence in our society.
00:26:33.960 None.
00:26:34.780 I don't condone it.
00:26:35.840 But I think we do ourselves a disservice
00:26:37.700 when we don't talk about how people can become radicalized.
00:26:41.780 And the reality is the Trump administration
00:26:43.800 has caused so much pain to people's everyday lives
00:26:46.900 that some folks are fed up and willing to risk it all.
00:26:50.440 Well, Glenn Beck decided to talk about those statements.
00:26:53.280 And in his caption on IG of the video, he put Charlamagne justifies and he put justifies in all caps.
00:27:01.840 Charlamagne justifies the Trump assassination attempt with a question mark, an exclamation mark.
00:27:08.860 Glenn, your social media people knew what they were doing.
00:27:10.820 OK, they were trying to paint the picture that I was justifying the Trump assassination.
00:27:14.460 That's why they put justifying in caps.
00:27:16.420 But you put a question mark at the end to protect yourselves.
00:27:18.900 People like Glenn Beck have been too rich, too privileged, and too in a bubble for so long that they have zero clue about the pain so many in this country are currently facing.
00:27:28.940 And if you listen to what Glenn Beck said, he gets it.
00:27:32.140 But he just shrugged it off.
00:27:33.140 He literally says, I understand the economic pain.
00:27:35.280 Let's listen to that part.
00:27:36.760 What the hell pain are people going?
00:27:38.880 I mean, I understand economic pain.
00:27:40.780 It started under Biden.
00:27:42.080 What pain are people going through right now that you can go, yeah, I can see why they want to kill him.
00:27:47.200 If you understand the economic pain, then why are you asking the question? What pain? I don't agree with vigilante justice. I don't think political violence is the answer, but we have to have honest conversations about how these people are being radicalized.
00:28:00.820 Right. Glenn Beck knows this. Yes, we should talk about violent political rhetoric that leads to political violence.
00:28:06.900 And we should discourage that and denounce it. OK, especially when it's coming from the president of the United States of America.
00:28:12.840 But we should also talk about violent political policies that are hurting the pockets of everyday working class Americans and discourage and denounce that, too.
00:28:22.340 okay all right i really like you but i think you're an idiot on this
00:28:31.300 okay uh you see what happens when you use the word but charlemagne and anybody else who thinks
00:28:38.820 like this we're in a free society i'm against assassination but i can understand how one got
00:28:46.880 there is not nuance it's surrender with a smile empathy is not the same as understanding
00:28:55.740 empathy says i see your rage i see your despair i see your sense of betrayal i really do
00:29:03.680 period understanding whispers i see all those things
00:29:11.060 but i also can follow the logic that makes murder reasonable no once you grant the logic
00:29:19.320 you've already seated the assassin at the table of legitimate debate there is no seat at the table
00:29:25.080 for the assassin you've told the next killer that his grievance is human and understandable
00:29:31.320 even if his bullet becomes regrettable that's not compassion that is your darker self putting
00:29:39.540 on a suit calling it insight we live in america 2026 we live in america which means in 2026 we
00:29:51.540 have ballots we have courts we have microphones we have lawsuits we have recall petitions
00:29:56.120 you know uh you have the right to leave for another state tomorrow we don't have gulags
00:30:04.160 There's no secret police at the door.
00:30:06.620 There's no famine engineered by the state.
00:30:09.340 The gap between our loud, messy frustrations and the kind of persecution that once justified
00:30:16.340 people killing tyrants is the size of all the oceans put together on earth.
00:30:23.640 When a citizen in this country decides that voting, speaking, suing, or waiting for the
00:30:28.580 next election is no longer enough and that only a bullet will do. The failure is not in the
00:30:34.840 republic. The failure is in the soul that chooses the bullet. And anyone who softens that truth with
00:30:43.100 the root cause, well, let's look at the root cause, or sympathetic footnotes. You're not
00:30:49.360 you're not showing empathy. You are performing moral cowardice in the costume of depth.
00:30:58.160 You are teaching the young that principle comes with an asterisk,
00:31:02.860 that the line between thought and murder is kind of negotiable here.
00:31:08.220 You know, if your feelings are running high, well, free societies don't survive on laws alone.
00:31:15.300 They survive on internalized conviction, taught, reinforced, modeled that political violence is
00:31:23.360 never, ever, ever legitimate. Did I use the word ever? Look it up. Martin Luther King. Have you
00:31:28.820 read him? Have you read Gandhi? Have you read Jesus? This conviction is fragile and it has to
00:31:37.560 be guarded by those who shape the culture, Charlemagne. It also needs to be guarded by
00:31:44.200 the politician, the journalist, the professor, the priest, the influencer. When they equivocate,
00:31:52.100 you don't illuminate, you erode. Real empathy looks a broken man in the eye and says,
00:32:00.860 I hear you. Your pain is real. Your argument may even have merit, but the moment you pick up the
00:32:10.420 gun, you become the tyrant you claim to hate. There's no but in that sentence.
00:32:20.720 We cannot pretend that it is understandable in a nation that still lets you speak, vote,
00:32:27.100 organize, and breathe free air. Good God, no kings. How about you go right downtown and pick
00:32:33.260 up a sign that was probably paid for by the Communist Party of China and go march around
00:32:38.700 and say no kings and the reason why you can do that is because he's not a king oh are you this
00:32:45.480 stupid no charlemagne you're not and neither is your audience it's just laziness
00:32:51.900 i'm not saying we live in a perfect world i'm not saying i like everything that's going on
00:33:00.080 we have deep deep issues and problems that we should be talking about instead what we're talking
00:33:06.500 about is i can understand how you got to the gun that's cultural poison you have to fight
00:33:15.200 you have to fight the the the the the legitimization of assassination
00:33:22.880 the moment you concede the moment you concede that well i understand how we got there
00:33:31.660 the republic itself is conditional. It's revocable. The instant enough people feel
00:33:38.600 sufficiently aggrieved. That's not wisdom. That's not compassion. That's not empathy.
00:33:45.900 That's slow suicide of a free people. So let's be clear once and for all.
00:33:52.720 I do not understand how one gets there. Not in this country. Not today. I reject the premise
00:34:01.060 that any American grievance in this country
00:34:04.600 can ever travel down that road.
00:34:09.360 You have to starve the darker self of every excuse,
00:34:13.620 every sympathetic meh, of every but.
00:34:18.280 Because a free society that refuses to do so
00:34:21.260 will never stay free.
00:34:24.440 It'll just wait for the next bullet
00:34:26.240 and then say, oh, that was inevitable.
00:34:29.260 i'm not i'm not going to even listen to his response because i don't need i don't i don't
00:34:38.740 want a war i don't want to be in a war with anybody i don't really care i just i thought
00:34:46.480 i made it clear but i heard what i said and i didn't make it clear i didn't make it clear last
00:34:52.400 week it was just too you know I understand I understand you know the pain and by the way
00:35:00.100 Charlemagne please don't play that game Glenn's just been too rich for too long really really
00:35:07.180 Charlemagne I can pretty much guess how much you make you can pretty much guess how much I make
00:35:15.500 don't play that you're one of the people and oh Glenn's just so far removed but I'm one of the
00:35:23.140 people Charlemagne please give it a rest give it a rest I do understand I don't live that life and
00:35:34.220 I'm glad I don't live that life anymore but I'm not very far away from living that life
00:35:43.400 in either direction, quite honestly. Nothing is permanent. But I do feel it. It's why I started
00:35:53.060 three different charities. How many charities have you... I give between 20% and 30% of my
00:36:02.760 salary away to charity every year. How about you? Action makes all the difference. Action
00:36:11.800 makes all the difference. I don't say, that's the first time I've ever said that number on the air.
00:36:20.640 And I say it to you, Charlemagne, to challenge you. And if you have a higher number,
00:36:28.360 Throw it back at me and challenge me to do better.
00:36:32.620 But please don't try to make yourself look like you're one of the people.
00:36:39.120 You don't have to be one of the people.
00:36:42.380 Do you think Joe Biden was one of the people?
00:36:45.620 Do you think Elizabeth Warren is one of the people?
00:36:48.000 Do you think Ocasio-Cortez with her beautiful Tax the Rich dress a few years ago at the Met Gala is one of the people?
00:37:00.740 Please.
00:37:04.120 Hope that clears things up.
00:37:05.620 Back in just a minute.
00:37:07.300 Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.
00:37:10.400 You ever find yourself in the middle of a really difficult set of decisions and all of a sudden you think,
00:37:14.680 wow, wouldn't it be nice if just once somebody knew how to do this better than I do? So can
00:37:22.980 somebody help me? A great example of this is buying or selling a house. It really is not
00:37:28.700 something you want to do on your own. If you've ever done it before, you know it's really
00:37:31.800 complicated, requires a lot of planning, a lot of work, a lot of hard work, a lot of guessing
00:37:35.540 if you don't know what you're doing. You need somebody that really knows the market, knows how
00:37:39.420 to sell the house, knows how to price it right, knows how to get it sold, knows how to help you
00:37:44.440 buy the next one, not overpay. That's why I started a company over a decade ago called Real
00:37:49.380 Estate Agents I Trust. It's a real estate network of agents who are full-time, incredibly dedicated
00:37:55.040 professionals, and they're fully committed in helping you realize your home buying and home
00:37:58.800 selling goals. They're going to get things done right and done right the first time. I want you
00:38:03.580 to check it out please get your uh next real estate agent just just to interview them you'll
00:38:09.220 see if you see a difference they can get your house sold and you in the next house even in a
00:38:12.980 really tough market the name says it all realestateagentsitrust.com that's realestateagentsitrust.com
00:38:19.380 glenn beck is back after this
00:38:33.580 Most of us think about protecting our home in very physical ways.
00:38:38.460 We lock the doors, we install the cameras,
00:38:41.000 but there's another way that your home can be targeted
00:38:42.800 and it doesn't involve anyone stepping foot in your property.
00:38:45.920 It is actually called home title fraud
00:38:47.820 and it's exactly what it sounds like.
00:38:50.000 Criminals forge documents, they file them with the county,
00:38:52.940 they transfer ownership of your home into their name
00:38:55.600 and then once all that happens,
00:38:58.000 they can attempt to take out loans against your property
00:39:00.340 or even try to sell it out from under you.
00:39:02.800 The scary part is, like, you don't really know much about this as it's going on.
00:39:06.480 Regular homeowner's insurance doesn't typically protect you from this.
00:39:09.860 And the mortgage company isn't looking for it either.
00:39:12.620 That's why you need Home Title Lock.
00:39:14.040 They monitor your home's title and alert you to any changes that could signal fraud.
00:39:18.460 So you're not left discovering it after the fact, which is a big problem.
00:39:23.600 Something suspicious shows up, you can immediately act and you can get it out, you can knock
00:39:28.400 it out quickly.
00:39:29.500 I've partnered with Home Title Lock for a while now
00:39:31.520 because I want you to be able to protect your equity.

00:40:16.680 All right, let me take Joanne in North Carolina.
00:40:20.080 Hello, Joanne.
00:40:20.880 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:22.980 Hi, Glenn.
00:40:23.740 I just wanted to say this is crazy.
00:40:27.840 Okay, I'm going to try and gather myself and make my point real quick for you.
00:40:32.360 All right.
00:40:32.880 I don't think, my husband and I are raising five grandsons.
00:40:37.200 We've had them all since they were babies.
00:40:39.060 They're brothers.
00:40:39.760 The youngest is nine.
00:40:40.740 The oldest is 21, okay?
00:40:42.480 They all live at home.
00:40:43.740 We have one income, and we don't get any assistance.
00:40:48.180 We are making it.
00:40:49.640 it is we can't afford frivolous things but we can afford everything we need and a little bit
00:40:57.840 of what we want okay and when our grandparents and great-grandparents and whoever went through
00:41:04.620 the great depression and other hard times in the past nobody went out and tried to kill the
00:41:10.880 president because of it and actually hang on just a second actually it's not entirely true
00:41:19.020 the communists in the labor unions uh were were causing all kinds of havoc on the streets
00:41:27.820 so you did have the same the same exact elements that are causing problems today were causing
00:41:33.800 problems then but you're right the general population who rejected all of that because
00:41:38.880 we were different people we were people that understood eternal principles and that we were
00:41:43.400 all in it together. Yeah. And the other thing is, is we have to look at, I have, I hear nobody talk
00:41:49.380 about this. For the last 30 years, at least, we have become a society of want and more, more,
00:41:57.180 more. And so many people, I don't have the exact percentage, but I know it's a lot because I know
00:42:03.220 a lot of people. And we have overdone it financially. We are loaded down with debt
00:42:10.880 when we want something instead of waiting until we can afford it we just open another credit card
00:42:16.740 or get another loan and then we got we had things already that we really couldn't afford and now
00:42:24.020 because we're going through this rough time while everything gets straightened out in our country
00:42:29.040 it's really gotten bad for a lot of people who are considered quote unquote well off
00:42:34.600 and they're not really well off they just had a lot of things that they couldn't afford to begin
00:42:39.700 with. And I think it's important to mention that, that, you know, there's a lot of people who are
00:42:45.780 in trouble because of their own bad financial decisions. And now that's come to fruition
00:42:52.620 when we're struggling. So I wanted to mention that, too, because like I said, we're supporting
00:42:58.720 seven people on one income. It's not a huge income. It's like one hundred and fifty thousand
00:43:04.480 dollars a year and these boys need things and they get what they need and then again there's
00:43:11.400 a little bit for what we want but i'm not blaming anybody for that and yep joanne thank you very
00:43:17.940 much i hate to cut you off but we're up against network break um you make a very very good point
00:43:22.680 um you know we're all we're all struggling in our own ways we're all struggling and we should
00:43:27.580 be in it together as our grandparents and great-grandparents were in world war ii
00:43:31.640 we are in this together we are not enemies of one another stop trying to divide us
00:43:38.220 and we not unite and see the pain in each other and help one another
00:43:42.520 animal farm is one of those stories people often think about and they think they already know it
00:43:50.360 of course you remember hearing about it in school and of course you remember the title it's a
00:43:53.880 classic and you assume you got the idea but then you experience it again you realize it hasn't lost
00:43:59.380 step at all you realize how relevant it was then when it was written and how still relevant it is
00:44:05.000 today there's a new animated version of george orwell's animal farm it's engaging it's timely
00:44:11.180 and it's the kind of story that entertains you in the moment and then follows you home and keeps
00:44:15.460 working on your thoughts afterwards it's a great thing to talk to your kids about it and really
00:44:19.880 explain what was going on there especially with your older kids it opens the door to important
00:44:24.680 conversations about power and propaganda truth human nature and what happens when people stop
00:44:29.820 asking questions it's beautifully done respects the audience reminds you why great stories last

00:46:20.560 looking for i'll break that down but i wanted to bring sean spicer in because he's got a new book
00:46:25.840 out called trump 2.0 the revolution that will permanently transform america um and sean's a
00:46:31.480 good friend and i i have so much respect for him uh and i think he's right to a degree and that
00:46:37.620 that one degree is what i want to talk to him about uh and we'll start there in 60 seconds
00:46:42.920 First, let me talk to you about leaf filter.
00:46:44.720 There is a point in ownership where you start noticing, you know, that what everybody else is doing, you know, down the street who mows their lawn too often, who never mows it at all, who's out there fixing something every single weekend.
00:46:56.980 And then there's gutter day.
00:46:58.720 Don't you love gutter day?
00:47:00.300 Somebody's up on a ladder trying to balance scooping out whatever has been sitting up there since last fall, hoping it doesn't drop on themselves and fall off the ladder.
00:47:07.740 And you're just standing there on the ground like a person who made a better decision earlier in life.
00:47:11.740 you know that's the difference leaf filter makes it keeps the gutters clear so you don't have to
00:47:16.160 go up on the ladder no mess no i'll get to it next week and the best part is you don't have to say a
00:47:20.880 word about it because your neighbors they figure it out on their own how come he's never up on the
00:47:24.520 ladder start protecting yourself today with leaf filter it's america's number one gutter protection

00:47:47.140 i'm a little scared uh i i sort of get very worried when with the intro like i'm about to
00:47:53.480 be challenged i felt like i'm going into a briefing again i i i heard that i'm like the
00:47:58.080 one degree matters and i'm like oh boy it's yeah it's like i'm going in for the big no no i lay
00:48:04.460 i was googling i was like what am i about to do no no no no no no and then sean let me tell you
00:48:11.280 something i'm gonna rip your face off no it's a it's a friendly discussion that is going back
00:48:16.240 you will see my point i think you're gonna see my point but here's the problem i i've listened
00:48:22.120 to glenn beck long enough that when you have a point it's usually really insightful and brilliant
00:48:26.800 and i i worry that i'm not prepared for it that's my okay all right all right no it's a
00:48:32.480 you thought of this one anyway you'll have an answer for it i guarantee it tell me uh give me
00:48:40.620 your give me your theory here on the book the theory is this without i know people were concerned
00:48:47.540 that president trump uh didn't return to office sequentially in 2004 24 but the reality is those
00:48:54.400 intervening four years what happened during those four years to prepare him to return for office
00:48:59.300 was unbelievably consequential, the way that he was able to think about the people,
00:49:03.920 the process, the policies. He is going to be historical and consequential because
00:49:09.060 he was out of office for four years, because they plotted and planned the return. They not
00:49:15.240 only brought in the right people, they kept the right people out of the administration.
00:49:19.260 They knew where to go, how to do it. And part of what I explain is what happened during those four
00:49:24.840 years. People haven't really fully examined Glenn. The Project 2025, the America First Policy
00:49:31.540 Institute, the America First Legal, all of these groups, all of the work they did came to fruition
00:49:38.400 that allowed him to start in his first year in everything from NATO to DEI eradication to the
00:49:45.200 Maha movement. It would have never happened had he not been out of office for four years.
00:49:50.540 yep he didn't have the time he he he didn't have the time to catch his breath i think he walked in
00:49:57.100 and sean you would know better than i i do i think he walked in in 2016 i didn't you know when he
00:50:02.220 started i'm not sure that he started thinking he was going to be president i mean probably he did
00:50:07.700 because that's the way he kind of thinks it's always you know accomplished in his head but um
00:50:13.860 thinking hey i've been friends with the left i've been friends with democrats we all get along
00:50:19.960 you know it's going to be a different and then when he got in i think he was just
00:50:23.580 i mean it was it was sledgehammer to the head every single day and i think he was a little dazed
00:50:29.800 and it took that four years for him to first of all get out of that and go what the hell just
00:50:35.980 happened and who did this to me and how do i make sure that doesn't happen again and if i got one
00:50:43.220 more shot i'm gonna make it count and i that would not have happened if he wouldn't have lost in 2020
00:50:49.440 You just nailed it. I mean, that's the reality. When we walked in, there was this perception, and I had worked in the Bush White House, right? There's this sense that the people that surround you respect the election that the people voted in that put you back in office.
00:51:05.440 And so there were people that we, that President Trump selected to serve in his administration that I think we all thought, well, they've got to have the president's best interests at heart. They've got to be committed to moving the America first agenda. And they weren't. And to your point, like I even, when I wrote my first book, it was like you were going so quick, you never got a second to stop and think.
00:51:25.640 And as I mentioned, every other president but one has been sequential.
00:51:29.260 Monday becomes Tuesday, the same secretary of state, secretary of the Treasury, same chief staff.
00:51:33.460 Just keep working on the same project.
00:51:34.980 You just go down to the Capitol, raise your hand and swear and affirm that you'll continue to uphold the Constitution for another four years.
00:51:40.540 And then you go back to business because he was out of office.
00:51:43.240 He thought, man, maybe I don't want this person in.
00:51:46.940 And I'll give you the perfect example.
00:51:49.680 During 2015, Jim Mattis came up to Bedminster to visit with the president.
00:51:54.620 Someone had recommended he'd be a good secretary of defense. They met. And on December 15th, 2016, we got in a plane. We flew to North Carolina and announced him as the secretary of defense. The president had known him for exactly one year. I mean, excuse me, one hour before he named him secretary of defense. You contrast that with Pete Hegseth. It's been, what, 15 years that they've known each other. He has a level of familiarity with these people that didn't exist back then.
00:52:19.160 so um he said to me when he was running he said i it's my goal to be remembered as one of the
00:52:30.900 greats you know abraham lincoln george washington and i thought to myself well that's a pretty
00:52:35.520 that's a pretty high bar you're setting for yourself um because i have i revere those men
00:52:40.860 especially george washington and i have gotten to the place to where um looking at his policies
00:52:47.420 If they succeed, he is a refounder of the United States.
00:52:52.480 He is as consequential as Abraham Lincoln, and he may be the guy who saves the Republic.
00:53:00.000 He is in that category of the top three.
00:53:04.540 Here's my question to you.
00:53:10.580 It's almost all executive order.
00:53:13.460 if he loses and he knows this he you know he has two years to complete a lot of this stuff
00:53:21.020 if he loses the the midterm which he could if he loses especially the senate who are in real deep
00:53:27.460 trouble if we don't have somebody who understands his vision and what he's doing we're going right
00:53:35.620 back to where we were they will all jump back onto that wef bandwagon and and it'll be worse
00:53:41.260 than it was um because they'll feel justified in going after everybody how how does he hold on to
00:53:50.000 this uh and get through you know 2028 what what what has to happen so we don't immediately just
00:54:01.840 have a president walk in and go yeah all these executive orders are over and then it's over yeah
00:54:07.300 So you're right.
00:54:08.680 What can be done by executive order can be undone by executive order.
00:54:11.940 Biden proved that when he came into office and did a lot of stuff, and then Trump reversed
00:54:15.400 it back.
00:54:16.120 So that's number one.
00:54:16.860 So the short term, we need to continue to get a Republican Congress.
00:54:20.120 We saw the movie in Trump 1.0, which was they just impeached and investigated him.
00:54:25.100 They effectively shut down the America First agenda.
00:54:29.020 So we need to understand what's at stake.
00:54:30.900 I think I feel very good about the Senate.
00:54:32.900 You look at we've got a three seat majority there, seven seats in play nationwide.
00:54:38.680 I feel good about where we are. We could potentially pick up a seat.
00:54:42.140 We could potentially lose two. But I feel good about maintaining the majority.
00:54:45.720 The House is a little bit of a different story.
00:54:47.940 I do think that where the national media misleads people is by acting somehow like, well, it normally rains on Tuesday, so it will rain next Tuesday.
00:54:55.700 And like you don't look at midterm elections that way. You go district by district.
00:54:59.300 I think what's happening in the redistricting front will help us tremendously.
00:55:03.020 The money, we're at about $450 million of a financial advantage.
00:55:07.480 And you start going district by district through the 30 races that are probably in play.
00:55:11.860 I don't think it's a foregone conclusion we lose.
00:55:14.540 But that's the short-term answer, which is you're right.
00:55:16.880 If we don't keep a Republican majority, it makes it much more difficult.
00:55:20.320 Number two, we need to codify the things that are really important in law.
00:55:24.060 The big, beautiful bill did a bunch of those things, both in terms of tax policy and immigration.
00:55:28.960 But you're right. If they don't prioritize what they need to codify in law, that will could potentially undermine a lot of the wins.
00:55:36.340 But the third thing that Trump has done, and we saw this particularly with the border, Glenn, is Biden said, well, I can't secure the border.
00:55:42.960 I just can't do it without legislation. Trump proved that that wasn't the case.
00:55:47.700 And I think and he also exposed a lot of the sort of the woke policies.
00:55:51.980 So why I think that's important is codifying things in law has got to be the number one thing to make sure that they just can't be undone while we have a Republican majority.
00:56:01.540 But number two is by exposing these things, you somehow you do undermine the argument.
00:56:06.760 A future president on the Democratic side could potentially open the border again, but they'd have a much harder time explaining that that wasn't what they were really doing.
00:56:17.220 Right. So Joe Biden, we all knew the real motive of what he was doing, but he was able to couch to say, I just my hands are tied.
00:56:23.460 I can't do it. Legislate, you know, without legislation, Trump proved that that's not true.
00:56:27.800 So it doesn't mean they can't do it. It makes it a little bit harder publicly to pull that off.
00:56:31.920 But I think the other big thing, and you'll appreciate this, is I think culturally in Trump 1.0, Trump allowed a little to just go aside.
00:56:42.420 So, for example, he never visited the Kennedy Center, didn't visit it in the whole four years he was in office.
00:56:49.440 This time he's renamed it. He literally moderated.
00:56:54.420 I mean, he was like, LL Cool J is up for the next, you know, it's like Stevie Nicks and Earthway, you know, Fleetwood Mac.
00:57:01.840 Like he's out there on CBS. So he addressed culture in a way in higher education, things like that, in a way that he didn't in Trump 1.0.
00:57:10.700 So I think that there are things that have been done that are going to be harder for any future Democrat to try to do.
00:57:18.580 But I'm with you that the more that the Republicans can say these are the five things that we got to lock in, the better.
00:57:26.000 So let me ask you, Sean, you I mean, you're a naval guy with what's happening.
00:57:31.920 I'm going to lay out a case on the guys changing the world with choke points.
00:57:36.500 That's that's what he's doing. He's changing the world with choke points.
00:57:39.160 um and and nobody really understands that yet and they need to understand that president you know
00:57:44.660 should get somebody out to to really kind of make this point um but uh with what happened yesterday
00:57:51.880 this thing is so i mean we we are the people that love to snatch victory you know right out
00:57:59.900 or snatch defeat right out of the jaws of victory um what happened yesterday what does it mean
00:58:07.420 Where do we stand in this and what does it mean to the president?
00:58:11.460 Yeah, so first, let me just say that any views that I express are those are mine and mine alone, not those of the Department of War, the Department of Navy.
00:58:18.640 That being said, I don't think any actions that the president can take, like he has to go use military strength again.
00:58:25.100 They will only respect bombing. They showed yesterday that they're willing to play games with the fast boats and the drones.
00:58:31.040 They're not looking to capitulate right now. The only thing that they respect is strength.
00:58:35.720 The president needs to go back and bomb them into oblivion.
00:58:38.940 And I know some people don't like hearing that, but that's the reality.
00:58:42.140 These guys are not going to back down.
00:58:44.220 And the problem, Glenn, is fundamentally that we've now put ourselves in this situation
00:58:48.480 that if we stop short of that, they will feel emboldened.
00:58:52.460 These are the same guys who chanted death to America.
00:58:55.220 So you can't let them off the hook.
00:58:56.760 And they will not capitulate economically.
00:58:59.180 The assets cost them about $5 billion a year.
00:59:01.740 But they know.
00:59:02.820 See, here's the kicker.
00:59:04.160 It's the insurers that are the key.
00:59:06.920 So you've got the Navy can escort folks.
00:59:08.960 We did it in the 1980s.
00:59:10.440 But the shippers not only have to be willing to sail through the strait, but the insurers have to be willing to tell the shippers that, yes, we'll insure your ship, we'll insure your crew, and we will insure the cargo.
00:59:22.620 And as long as the fast boats, these little PT-like boats, they're inflatables, there's drones, as long as those guys can go, I mean, one rocket-propelled grenade.
00:59:33.740 uh can do a lot of damage to a hull to cargo could take out crew and the insurers are not
00:59:39.660 going to let those ships sail through the strait unless they feel as though it's safe right so the
00:59:45.660 the bigger problem isn't just offering the support of the u.s navy to get them through but the the
00:59:50.700 insurers need to have a level of comfort that they believe that the escalation has gone so far down
00:59:56.140 that the that they're actually going to be able to transit safely i don't see that happening until
01:00:00.460 the Iranians are bombed into capitulation. Sean, I really appreciate it. I really appreciate your
01:00:08.700 point of view, and I think you are right. The book is Trump 2.0. Really worth the read to get
01:00:16.060 an understanding of who he is, how this whole thing came together, and what he's doing. Too
01:00:22.140 many people are just seeing this as random. It's not random. And Sean lays it out. Sean,
01:00:27.560 thank you so much appreciate it appreciate it sir thanks sean spicer bye you bet um you can

01:07:30.940 for relief. It's relieffactor.com. The incredible true story of how a 22-year-old started a war
01:07:37.680 between Britain and France. Episode four of The American Story is out now. Grab it wherever you
01:07:41.500 get your podcasts, ad free at glennbeck.com.
01:07:55.080 so i'm going to tell you what happened uh in the gulf yesterday with the war um and you know it's
01:08:05.280 not great news um but uh we got to deal with it and i'll talk to you about it here coming up in
01:08:10.520 just a second but before i get to that if you want to if you look if you want the small stuff
01:08:17.080 you watch cable news okay they'll tell you all about the tweets and the tariffs and the latest
01:08:22.300 polls and everything else and that's fine but if you really want to understand what's happening
01:08:26.780 with donald trump you have to zoom out zoom out so far in the that you see the globe like a chess
01:08:33.420 board uh and the oceans like the arteries that they are because we are so used to small vision
01:08:41.860 politicians that only talk about we're going to own the libs or win the next election but unlike
01:08:49.420 the progressive left, which honestly has a vision so huge that you not only most people cannot even
01:08:57.060 see it, you know, the collapse of the West into a great reset, but they don't want you to see it
01:09:02.500 with Trump. It is a vision as big as what the left has done over the last 100 years, but it is
01:09:10.500 imperative that you see it because it is at this moment, the actual, the only actual plan to defeat
01:09:18.960 those who wish to cut America down to size, okay?
01:09:23.600 So I want you to look at what he has done
01:09:26.320 and look at it not as random chaos
01:09:29.160 because that's the opinion you get everywhere else.
01:09:31.680 I ask you, look at this different.
01:09:33.740 It's not random chaos.
01:09:35.240 These are choke points.
01:09:37.760 There is a handful of narrow sea lanes
01:09:40.860 and canals and islands and resource triangles
01:09:44.080 that control the flow of energy and trade
01:09:47.440 and the minerals that are going to power this next century and you can love trump you can hate trump
01:09:54.280 it doesn't matter but trump is the first president in decades who seems to get that america doesn't
01:10:03.340 win by being nice on the world stage and giving everybody some of our stuff america wins by making
01:10:10.380 sure that the world has to come to us for things it cannot live without so i want you to imagine
01:10:16.500 the world map here with clear eyes right now everybody's talking about the strait of hormuz
01:10:21.500 20 of the planet's oil passes through that narrow throat every single day 20 that means
01:10:29.580 iran can threaten to close it if it's a nuclear iran they do close it they completely control it
01:10:37.760 and they can charge whatever they want and no one can do anything because they have nuclear weapons
01:10:42.280 and also china can muscle in so trump's answer has been energy dominance at home and leverage
01:10:50.160 abroad flood the market with american oil and gas so no one cartel i.e opec or rogue state
01:10:59.580 i.e venezuela or iran can hold a gun to the world's head then make sure that our allies
01:11:08.420 know the difference between talking tough and actually being tough so you have the strait of
01:11:15.120 hormuz then the other choke point is the strait of malacca this is like the jugular of asia 80
01:11:22.860 of china's oil most of japan's south korea's all of it funnels through that strait whoever
01:11:30.220 influences that strait influences the factory floor of the planet and trump is not blind to it
01:11:36.820 And nobody really has even brought this up.
01:11:39.360 I mean, it was like a one-day story.
01:11:41.620 He's used tariffs, naval presence, and everything else, straight talk with Beijing to make sure that they understand that the Pacific is in their private, you know, lake.
01:11:53.420 He just made a deal a couple of weeks ago with Indonesia that gives us a major role in that choke point.
01:11:59.760 So that's choke point number two.
01:12:02.100 80% of China's oil comes through that choke point.
01:12:04.700 But another probably 20% of their oil comes from the Strait of Ramos, and we're now in both of them.
01:12:13.280 Next, the Strait of Gibraltar.
01:12:15.580 You come around, you got some oil.
01:12:18.420 Now you go through the Mediterranean, and you come out into the Atlantic Ocean.
01:12:23.800 That is the entrance to the Mediterranean.
01:12:27.120 The next one, the other choke point, is the Panama Canal.
01:12:30.900 By the way, we just did a deal on the Strait of Malacca, and we did another one with Morocco on the Strait of Gibraltar.
01:12:40.800 So notice we have the Strait of Hormuz, or we're getting it, Malacca, that's done, Panama Canal, and Morocco with the Strait of Gibraltar.
01:12:49.700 So, so far, we got a lot of choke points that we didn't have before.
01:12:53.960 than Greenland.
01:12:56.700 Greenland, this one we tried to buy outright
01:12:59.880 because he sees what the Pentagon sees.
01:13:02.640 The Arctic ice is melting.
01:13:04.620 New shipping lanes.
01:13:06.200 The shipping lanes are opening.
01:13:08.920 Whoever plants the flag there first
01:13:11.140 controls the roof of the world.
01:13:12.880 The Northwest Passage and the Northern Sea Route.
01:13:16.900 They're not theory anymore.
01:13:18.400 They're tomorrow's Suez and Panama.
01:13:21.300 Trump wants America sitting on that high ground
01:13:23.900 not begging for permission from Denmark or Russia.
01:13:28.500 Then there's the resource map that most people still haven't even looked at.
01:13:32.460 It's called the lithium triangle.
01:13:34.480 Argentina, Bolivia, and Chile.
01:13:37.180 They are sitting on more than half of the planet's known lithium.
01:13:43.220 Why would we want to have that?
01:13:47.360 I don't know.
01:13:48.080 Electric vehicles, batteries, the whole green tech fantasy runs on lithium.
01:13:53.900 Venezuela is the largest proven oil reserve on Earth, currently run by a regime that hates us.
01:14:00.880 Not anymore.
01:14:02.500 And if the rest of the world keeps chasing net zero fantasies and shuts down their own drilling rigs and mines while China corners the rare earth processing, who do they call when their lights start to flicker?
01:14:14.840 They need the lithium in that triangle, which we now have a presence in.
01:14:19.760 We've just kicked China out of that because of the Panama Canal and Venezuela.
01:14:24.940 If that doesn't work with lithium, they got to have oil.
01:14:30.180 They call the country that quietly secured the lithium, the oil, the shipping lanes, and the Arctic routes.
01:14:37.360 Don't you see that's what he's doing?
01:14:40.940 We're not used to seeing a vision like this.
01:14:44.960 It has honestly been, well, it's been since Kennedy with a vision this big, but Reagan had a big vision, but it was simple to understand.
01:14:53.540 We're going to collapse the Soviet Union.
01:14:55.380 That wall is coming down.
01:14:56.940 And so it was really easy.
01:14:58.560 This one, I don't think the president could say all of these things.
01:15:03.180 Now everybody knows, all the players know, and so he probably could get away with it now.
01:15:06.960 But you didn't want to reveal your hand on what he's doing.
01:15:09.820 And so he made it look like it was chaos.
01:15:12.240 Wait, he's talking about Panama?
01:15:13.920 Now he's at Greenland?
01:15:14.960 Now, what is it straight of Gibraltar?
01:15:17.080 What is he doing?
01:15:17.740 Now they all know, but you need to know, because this is the biggest play I've ever seen.
01:15:26.080 It's not drill, baby, drill as a slogan.
01:15:30.060 This is a grand strategy.
01:15:33.560 Europe and Asia are virtue signaling their way into energy poverty.
01:15:38.820 As they continue to do that, America becomes the indispensable supplier again.
01:15:43.940 we'll control the spigots the straits the canals the minerals we set the price we set the terms
01:15:51.320 you want to talk about america first this is america first this keeps the dollar working
01:15:57.660 if you lose the dollar you are venezuela overnight we will in america and i know nobody
01:16:05.520 understands this or wants to believe it but if we let the marxists do to us what they did to
01:16:10.920 Venezuela, we too will be eating our zoo animals. That's the way it happens. You collapse the
01:16:18.300 American currency and this game is over, over. You think you have problems now? Wait until that
01:16:25.740 happens. This is the only plan that I have seen, you know, that is actually looking to the next
01:16:34.000 hundred years and going, okay, what is it going to take? World's most powerful Navy, best energy
01:16:39.020 technology, best energy, best AI, best strategy, no one can take that away easily.
01:16:48.720 So why should you care? Why do you need to explain this to your friends? The choke points.
01:16:56.440 You need to explain this to your friends because American workers, real ones, not coastal consultants,
01:17:04.200 not banking guys. They get the jobs building the LNG terminals, the drilling rigs, the battery
01:17:11.760 plants, the ice class tankers. It means lower energy eventually at home, lower energy prices
01:17:19.160 that ripples through every factory, every farm, every household. It means the dollar stays the
01:17:25.080 king because all the commodities are priced in it and the supply chains run through the
01:17:30.040 choke points that we have or influence it means china or anybody else that wants to play games
01:17:37.420 okay go ahead we'll just turn the valve enough to remind you what actually keeps the modern world
01:17:42.780 running don't you see we hold all of the cards if the rest of the planet actually does what the
01:17:51.040 climate crowd dreams they stop exploring for oil they stop mining rare earth minerals they shut
01:17:56.820 down their nuclear, they pray to the windmill gods, then our leverage is absolute.
01:18:05.500 They will need to have, there's no way around it.
01:18:10.380 And the reason why nobody's talking about this is because A, it doesn't fit the narrative
01:18:14.220 of the left and B, it's not normal president thinking.
01:18:17.200 Normal presidents manage decline.
01:18:19.260 That's what we're used to.
01:18:20.620 They sign climate accords.
01:18:22.300 They hobble us.
01:18:22.980 They leave choke points to whoever wants to play hardball.
01:18:26.820 Trump doesn't manage decline. He looks at the map. He sees the narrow places that matter. He says those belong in the American sphere of influence one way or another through deals or alliances or strength, whatever it takes.
01:18:42.760 like him or not forget about his personality this is what he's doing this is why this is
01:18:50.940 America first this is the kind of thinking that that built empires built America in the first
01:18:57.460 century you control the arteries and you control the future if somebody how long do you think
01:19:05.300 you're going to live if your arteries are all blocked the world's blood is oil it's energy
01:19:11.300 It's technology. It's rare earth minerals. If somebody else can block those arteries on us, we die. If we're the ones keeping the arteries open or able to block them for our enemies, what happens to our enemies?
01:19:26.420 we don't want to beg for a seat at anyone else's table with this strategy you own the table
01:19:35.280 that is the plan and it's not perfect it's not without huge risk but it is historic in scale
01:19:44.620 i don't understand why people can't see this if it works and the early moves suggest it's already
01:19:53.500 in motion i mean we have this iran thing is is worrisome very worrisome but america if it works
01:20:02.240 doesn't just stay number one we enter new golden eras on our terms and the rest of the world can
01:20:09.540 either get on board or learn to live without us and our military and the oil and the lithium and
01:20:15.200 the shipping lanes that they've all taken for granted under this new way of thinking america
01:20:20.940 is not going to be taken for granted anymore. But this is all up to you. If you don't share
01:20:27.840 this with your friends, if you can't explain the choke points, if you can't look at a map and say,
01:20:32.900 I want you to look at, listen to me, family, I want you to look at a map. I don't care what
01:20:37.420 you think about him. Is America in trouble? Is the old system working the way we've done it?
01:20:43.400 Do you want to manage the decline and lose the American dollar in our way of life? Okay. We all
01:20:49.900 can agree on that no great then let me show you what he's doing you have to explain this to your
01:20:57.580 friends because it's your move now with the election coming up all of this will end you'll
01:21:06.140 be back managing decline so if your choice really is america then you have to first think bigger and
01:21:16.860 understand just this one concept today because there's so many levels to this this we should
01:21:22.460 just put out in a in a series of videos and put it on the torch ricky i'll just do chalkboard
01:21:27.960 videos on this but if you can just understand just the choke points this part today
01:21:33.940 and show that you can think bigger maybe you can convince your friends to also think bigger
01:21:41.540 We have to stop thinking about just the next election or just the latest Twitter outrage or what's right in front of you.
01:21:49.540 You need to see, oh my gosh, there is actually, he's changing the entire structure of the world that was established in 1945 and that was good for a while and now screwing us.
01:22:02.860 He's changing all of it and it's happening in real time and this election, it's up to you.
01:22:09.920 can we think bigger America can we still do that more in just a minute
01:22:17.440 the humanitarian crisis in Israel continues to this day there are so many Jewish people
01:22:25.320 spiritual brothers and sisters of us Christians who are feeling a deep read need right now they
01:22:31.000 feel very very alone and in so many ways thankfully the International Fellowship of Christians and
01:22:35.720 Jews is still there, still on the ground, still doing God's work and helping out any and every
01:22:40.980 way they possibly can. But they can only do that because of support from people like you and me.
01:22:47.240 I know I support the Jewish people. It does not go to a blanket check and a blank check for
01:22:53.840 Benjamin Netanyahu wars or the way they run Israel or anything else. I'm talking about the
01:22:59.020 jewish people they have a right to live and they're very alone your gift today will provide
01:23:06.200 critically needed aid to communities in the north and the south that's been devastated by the war
01:23:11.060 a generous donation will help deliver to those in need including evacuees and refugees from the
01:23:16.460 war-torn areas first responders volunteers wounded soldiers elderly holocaust survivors that are
01:23:21.620 still there can you imagine feeling this hatred coming back again during a type of time of great
01:23:27.680 uncertainty your gift to god's people is hope giving and life-saving so please don't wait
01:23:33.980 call them now 888-488-IFCJ 888-488-IFCJ or go online to ifcj.org that's ifcj.org

01:23:50.760 don't lose touch glenn beck will be back after this
01:23:57.680 I think we have Nick Shirley on with us next.
01:24:18.200 I want to read his tweet that he just tweeted out.
01:24:20.740 I think it was yesterday.
01:24:22.560 Quote, I was almost taken hostage in Cuba.
01:24:25.300 I went to Cuba to document the humanitarian crisis and to show life under 60 plus years of communism and now amid the U.S. blockade.
01:24:34.860 Once I landed, they seized all my cameras except for my iPhone and had the intelligence agencies following me all day until my security noticed their spies tailing us to the hotel where they all waited all night for us to come down.
01:24:48.940 Under communism, there is no free speech and those who show reality or speak up are imprisoned.
01:24:54.480 I have so much more to say, but I can't say it right now.
01:24:58.200 Give me another 24 hours.
01:24:59.840 Well, it's been 24 hours.
01:25:01.140 Nick Shirley, I hope, will be joining us next.
01:25:03.820 He's talking to his mother right now.
01:25:05.740 Whether he can come on.
01:25:07.080 We hope to talk to him next.
01:25:08.700 Stand by.
01:25:10.840 The last few years have taught me something that I don't think enough people want to admit.
01:25:15.780 The system we count on every single day in this country isn't as sturdy as it looks.
01:25:20.560 All it takes is a little trouble in the wrong part of the world and shipping, bottleneck, a shortage of one key ingredient, major disruption overseas, and everything changes.
01:25:28.980 And it's getting harder and harder to find the things that you need.
01:25:31.520 And when it comes to medication, that's not an inconvenience.
01:25:34.500 That's personal.
01:25:35.660 That's why I like Jace Medical.
01:25:37.140 They give you a way to prepare now instead of panicking later.

01:27:00.940 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:04.860 Glenn Beck is on.
01:27:08.980 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:12.040 We're going to have Nick Shirley on with us because he almost was thrown in jail,
01:27:17.600 according to his tweet
01:27:19.340 in Cuba
01:27:21.960 and he said
01:27:23.720 I've got a lot to share
01:27:25.380 in 24 hours
01:27:27.380 well it's been 24 hours, he was going to be on the program
01:27:29.280 hopefully he'll be on with us tomorrow
01:27:30.820 I think his mom said
01:27:32.940 no, Nick, no, not yet
01:27:35.320 I think mom's concerned
01:27:36.620 moms and wives, listen to your moms
01:27:39.280 and your wives, gentlemen
01:27:40.440 but
01:27:43.120 we'll see if he comes on with us
01:27:45.280 tomorrow because I think he has some
01:27:46.840 fascinating things to share about what's really going on in Cuba, and we're starting to double
01:27:52.260 down on Cuba. It's fascinating to watch. Also, yesterday, Iran struck the UAE. They broke the
01:28:00.000 peace treaty, and they hit an oil facility in the UAE, and why they hit it is really important,
01:28:08.920 and what this means, and what we have to do, and why we have to do it. Coming up here in just a
01:28:14.700 Second, first, let me tell you about the Berna Launcher.
01:28:16.720 Most people spend a lot of time thinking about what they would do in a bad situation,
01:28:20.160 but no time thinking about what they should do, because those aren't always the same thing.
01:28:24.880 In real life, most situations don't call for the most extreme response.
01:28:28.240 It calls usually for something measured, something that gives you control,
01:28:32.060 buys you time, and creates distance without changing everything in an instant.
01:28:36.500 That's where the Berna Launcher fits.
01:28:38.440 It gives you a way to protect yourself with non-lethal kinetic and chemical rounds
01:28:42.040 that can stop a threat from a distance up to 60 feet without any kind of consequences coming from
01:28:47.420 that firearm and when you look at the numbers it makes sense less than 0.1 i'm sorry 0.01 percent
01:28:54.540 of all altercations ever require a lethal response which means most situations fall
01:29:00.260 into the space that the berna launcher that tool is made for okay it's legal in all 50 states doesn't
01:29:07.700 require a permit. It's simple enough to use. Anyone can use it. Over 18, you don't need
01:29:12.760 anything. Bring it with you. Berna is now offering $100 off the Berna LE. That's the
01:29:18.320 generation 2. Visit Berna.com. Secure yours while supplies last at Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com.
01:29:28.520 Okay, so yesterday, Iran launched a small but directed missile and drone attack on the
01:29:37.460 uae they targeted civilian and energy sites now this is a key oil port and storage hub this is
01:29:47.440 the one place where all of the pipelines run to they either go to the strait of hormuz or they run
01:29:53.920 here and it lets oil bypass the strait of hormuz so this is critical if you get rid of this and
01:30:01.640 the Strait of Hormuz, we're in real trouble. So a drone, several drones went out, knocked a lot
01:30:09.540 of them out. One drone started a fire at this oil facility and the UAE stopped most of the attack.
01:30:17.280 Three Indian workers were hurt. The UAE immediately responded. They said, this is
01:30:24.020 dangerous escalation, treacherous attack on civilians, and we are going to respond. Okay.
01:30:31.640 Iran was very upset. Now, they say they did this because Iran is very upset at President Trump and Project Freedom, the naval operation that's going to reopen the strait. And so they were very upset. And so they decided to go out, not after America, but after that particular site in the UAE.
01:30:54.780 when they did that there was another split now this tells me that the the 12ers are still in
01:31:03.280 charge of the irs irgc the islamic revolutionary guard the 12ers are still in charge because it
01:31:10.040 was the president or their prime minister or whatever they have over there um they immediately
01:31:14.160 responded they were furious that the irgc would fire this this is the first major break in the
01:31:21.500 ceasefire and it happened right after our ships entered the Gulf. So it's an escalation. The risk
01:31:28.340 of everything slipping into a bigger war is higher now, but it is not inevitable. Nobody wants it
01:31:34.340 except for Iran. Um, everybody wants an end. I shouldn't even say Iran. The IRGC wants it. Okay.
01:31:43.520 Iran is desperate right now. The blockade is crushing their economy. Their wells are filling
01:31:49.360 up there's no place to go they've got to have to shut these down i'm going to try to check with
01:31:53.560 some experts today and find out why do we keep saying it's just a couple of days away that those
01:31:58.060 couple of days have come and gone several times what where do we stand on that the danger here
01:32:02.840 remember i said to you world wars and major wars never start on purpose it is always one side or
01:32:12.500 the other making a major miscalculation um and let's just pray that nobody miscalculates okay
01:32:21.740 but you can't take you can't you can't go back to what we were doing that failed for 47 years
01:32:29.160 because yesterday's attack shows one thing the radicals they're not going to restrain their
01:32:35.620 themselves okay this actually should be a wake-up call um and it also should see the the west and
01:32:45.120 everybody else in the middle east should see okay we have the high ground here okay now there's a
01:32:49.720 clear path to stability and peace but it has to be done through strength no ground wars you know
01:32:56.740 none of that but if you want cheap reliable energy and a weaker regime that stops funding terrorists
01:33:03.340 and are chasing nukes then we have to have measured retaliation i don't know why we are
01:33:12.940 not still hammering the irgc launch sites maybe they say we've hit them all but obviously we
01:33:18.560 haven't we we have to take out more of their command centers um and the factories that are
01:33:23.940 behind yesterday's attack you know and we have it because we have all the carriers in the area
01:33:29.260 but we need to publicly warn any more uae hits anything on saudi anything u.s targets will get
01:33:37.860 exactly the same response we have to sink the rest of their little boats um but these are little
01:33:44.560 these are like little inflatable boats okay this is not invasion it's just a red line that we need
01:33:51.160 to enforce so we're not paying seven dollars a gallon for gasoline and if they would burn down
01:33:56.500 that oil field or that oil refinery and port, you're looking probably at more than $7 a gallon
01:34:04.360 of gasoline. The economic pressure is hurting them. I mean, that is really what this is at
01:34:14.880 this point, is just economic pressure. But we have to sanction any country, especially China,
01:34:21.440 that if you're buying Iranian oil, if you get oil out of there and you're taking it and you're
01:34:25.920 buying it we sanction you with crippling sanctions the whole world should be behind this right now
01:34:31.740 everybody is seeing do you want iran that just fired on the uae you should be firing at us i mean
01:34:38.580 if you're fighting this in a in reality you should be fighting this you know with you know you should
01:34:44.300 have launched against the united states but you didn't you went after an oil field you want the
01:34:48.080 world to burn that's the problem so we should be looking at this the whole world should be looking
01:34:55.560 at this and saying okay so i don't want anything to do with that um you cut them off from their
01:35:02.640 money it it breaks them faster than bombs we have to make project freedom unstoppable every ship
01:35:10.540 goes through that strait overwhelming navy force you have a little rubber boat we shoot you out of
01:35:17.500 the water immediately and we make it permanent until iran guarantees safe passage and iran
01:35:22.900 collapses meanwhile boost u.s oil and lng exports so the world doesn't need to ran and they get
01:35:31.200 honestly kind of hooked on getting it from us um the uae saudi arabia if they need weapons
01:35:40.680 to defend themselves and intel to defend themselves we should get get it to them
01:35:45.640 um this is their neighborhood not ours but no boots on iranian soil no american boots okay
01:35:52.640 um and the off-ramp is just strength that's it tell iran reopen the strait we've already done
01:36:00.880 this stop proxy attacks we've already done that verify and end your nuclear missile programs
01:36:06.140 and we'll ease the sanctions but it's time to end this regime it is no more weak deals we gotta end
01:36:15.000 this you have to these are the ways to prevent a bigger war clear red lines plus real fame uh pain
01:36:23.680 to force iran uh to choose a deal over collapse i don't think the irgc is going to that's why we i
01:36:29.780 think we just need to continue to pummel them look i don't i don't know why i mean look you
01:36:34.760 the president nor nor do you need advice on how to fight this thing um because i i'm i'm a
01:36:41.840 recovering alcoholic dj i can just tell you that i think the world should see now that you do not
01:36:50.960 want to be held hostage by this regime okay why would you hit that why would you hit that oil
01:36:56.900 field in the uae what did the uae do to you that's just showing that they will they'll destroy the
01:37:03.620 whole world they'll destroy the whole world why the whole world isn't standing up i mean the middle
01:37:08.780 east is but why the whole world isn't standing up going okay all right enough is enough you know
01:37:14.480 they just they just want global prices to rise scare everybody force concessions because you
01:37:22.160 know we're we can't handle the uh we can't handle the price of oil and maybe we can't maybe we can't
01:37:30.460 you know last hour i just laid something out on the choke points of the world first thing has to
01:37:36.620 happen you have to get rid of the 12 or hardliners okay because those people are doomsday people
01:37:42.280 um you know they believe wash the world in blood and wash the world in chaos and then the the 12th
01:37:50.500 the mom the mahadi will come back and rule the world i mean that's making nice with those guys
01:37:57.560 that's suicidal and the apocalypse together uh it's not good it's not good
01:38:04.340 but i just did something and watch the choke points and i want to i want to make sure that
01:38:13.060 you hear me say this clearly let me start here ronald reagan said back in the 80s when he was
01:38:21.520 talking about the debt he said we're going to be left at a point if we don't deal we're going to
01:38:25.440 left at a point where there are no good options and every option that we choose will be ugly
01:38:31.260 be ugly and nobody will want to do them well we're there now on the debt we're there tomorrow
01:38:37.320 i'm going to give you an option that i think is clear as clear as a bell and i i think it's where
01:38:42.960 the president is headed i'm not sure but it's easy we don't have to collapse the dollar and we don't
01:38:50.340 have to live with this debt we can actually convince the banks that and the rest of the
01:38:55.240 world the countries the central banks that we're serious about debt because they need us but they
01:39:00.020 need us to be serious about our debt so how do we do that i'll tell you that tomorrow
01:39:04.660 but everything that we choose is going to be ugly at this point and we have let for 47 years
01:39:13.820 these guys get bolder and bolder and bolder and put terrorists even in our own homeland all over
01:39:19.360 europe all over the middle east they've terrorized everybody they've they've have a choke point on
01:39:26.240 oil, and now they were close to nuclear weapons. You can agree or disagree with that, but we do
01:39:32.160 know they were building a long-range missile because they used one. They launched it. I don't
01:39:36.020 know if you saw it on mainstream TV, but they launched one. We know that they were actually
01:39:42.600 doing that. This is hurting so much because we let it go for so long. We can't let this go for
01:39:52.320 so long and there's going to be a lot of people that see the pain of the gas pump and that is
01:40:00.600 not something to dismiss the the pain at the gas pump i don't know how people are affording
01:40:08.420 life right now i don't unless you're living on credit cards and that's horrible but you know
01:40:15.200 gas can only go up to a certain amount before it's like i can't live anymore i mean what am i
01:40:20.140 going to do but this is the first time in my life as i outlined in the last monologue this is the
01:40:29.440 first time in my life i've actually seen a president with a plan what we have had for the
01:40:35.180 for my almost my entire life except for reagan was somebody who is just shuffling the chairs
01:40:42.800 on the deck of the titanic reagan actually had a plan to defeat the soviet union um but that was
01:40:50.780 his big vision this guy's big vision donald trump's big vision is how do we save the dollar
01:40:56.900 and the economy um for the next generation how do we revive and resuscitate the american dream
01:41:04.260 for our children i take you back to what ronald reagan said there won't be any good nothing's
01:41:09.500 going to feel good the country has cancer we have neglected it so long that cancer is in all of the
01:41:17.000 organs of our body and what we've done is every president that has come before has has been a
01:41:24.640 hospice caretaker they're just managing the decline they're moving the chairs on the deck of the
01:41:30.480 titanic but nobody's saying hey we should stop or turn around because this is going to be dangerous
01:41:35.240 there's not enough lifeboats they just make everybody happy we were in hospice the country
01:41:40.540 has cancer and we were in hospice and it might make you feel good well gas prices are down and
01:41:46.320 i have a job but nothing was changing still just over the horizon is massive collapse
01:41:53.360 what donald trump is doing is he is taking all the choke points and he's changing it and he's
01:42:00.040 changing the system that was built in 1945, and he is now giving the country and the world
01:42:07.060 chemotherapy. We're going to die. He's saying we don't have to, but we're going to have to go
01:42:15.580 through some chemotherapy. What you're feeling at the gas pump right now is chemotherapy,
01:42:19.600 and you cannot dismiss it. I'm not dismissing it. Chemotherapy is ugly. There's vomiting. You
01:42:25.980 what you pray for death through parts of you're like, I can't take it anymore. I don't want it
01:42:30.300 anymore. I'd rather die than have this, but that is an emotional reaction. You actually do want to
01:42:36.920 live. Um, but it's just horrible to go through. Think of the gas prices here as chemotherapy.
01:42:45.980 It's going to be horrible for a while, but if what I think is happening with the choke points
01:42:51.080 around the world, and I laid that out last hour, if that is what is actually happening,
01:42:55.980 then we're going to get through this.
01:42:59.980 It's going to get ugly, but we live on the other side.
01:43:03.460 The American dream is revived for our children on the other side,
01:43:08.420 and that's worth putting up with some pain.
01:43:11.040 I just need the president to come out and explain this to people.
01:43:16.020 If it's right, I need to know it's right.
01:43:19.700 This is what we're doing, and he should say that to people
01:43:23.100 because the pain is getting excruciating.
01:43:28.040 He needs to say, we're in chemotherapy right now,
01:43:31.200 and I know it's painful, but here's why it matters.
01:43:35.120 We're going to cure the cancer.

01:43:50.320 do you remember when summer used to feel like a break i mean it was when we were kids back in the
01:43:55.600 good old days now it just feels like it's just another never-ending bill being added to your
01:44:02.060 expense list you know you got to travel and then it's gas and then tuition and then camp fees and
01:44:07.760 somewhere along the way you find yourself doing what everybody does you put it on a card just
01:44:12.060 keep things moving uh you know and then you look up a few months later and that temporary fix is
01:44:17.700 turn into high interest debt that just doesn't go away and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger
01:44:21.600 this is why my parents when i was really small set all of us kids down in the living room and
01:44:26.420 they cut up their credit cards and put them in the fire and they said never do that never do that
01:44:30.440 because they all learned in that generation they learned um american financing can help they don't

01:45:16.460 All right, welcome back to the program.
01:45:28.020 We have Jason Buttrill with us, who I want to bring in and say anything that we have missed.
01:45:33.280 And Jason, I mean, Ricky, our executive producer, just put her finger up and said, I got a question.
01:45:38.500 Yeah, I just saw a post that Hegseth had shown a graphic, I guess, in a briefing.
01:45:44.140 and he showed that Iran put more mines in the Strait of Hormuz on April 23rd.
01:45:51.380 And my question is, first of all, that's insane and maniacal,
01:45:57.000 and I can't even understand that level of depravity.
01:45:59.780 But how do we win a war against people who literally want to usher in the end of the world?
01:46:05.900 They have nothing to lose. Their ideology is all about death.
01:46:08.920 How do you win a war against people like that?
01:46:10.640 this is probably the wrong answer but all i can think of is in the bible where there was a few
01:46:18.220 times where god said wipe them out wipe them out all of them now i don't mean that of persians and
01:46:26.060 iranians i mean that of the mullahs and the 12ers wipe them out that's why i think because you've
01:46:33.760 seen that you can win a war the president or jeremy i mean jason who was it um that yesterday
01:46:41.180 came out and was like uh that's a really bad move why are we doing that then they were furious at
01:46:45.780 the irgc for launching those missiles at uae yeah that was you know that was a rumor from the
01:46:51.840 iranian president okay so he he's he can be dealt with he can be dealt with you have to take the
01:47:00.020 IRGC and put them on the run. You have to empower the people who are not 12ers, kill, continue to
01:47:07.460 relentlessly kill the people who are, and then you need to start arming the people in the country.
01:47:14.960 Let them take care of some of this hornet's nest themselves. You haven't seen them do anything yet.
01:47:20.020 You have to empower the people who are the good people. They have to know who the good people are
01:47:25.040 and the bad people are first, and we're starting to see that because of the ceasefire. We know it's
01:47:29.440 the IRGC. Wipe them out. Wipe them out. Kill every last one of them if you have to. IRGC has made
01:47:38.740 their stance very clear. They want chaos. They want to wash the world in blood. Wipe them out
01:47:44.820 and give sensible people a chance to live and be free. All right. Paid for by Super Sure Insurance

01:48:02.880 have to they're on paper you know something uh they have to have something safe in case something
01:48:08.220 bad happens but you ask them what are you actually covered for i mean you asked me or if somebody
01:48:13.240 asked me just recently about something we were doing and they were like are we covered in case
01:48:16.980 something goes wrong and i'm like uh is that you ricky was that london wasn't it and i'm like
01:48:22.840 I'm not sure.

01:49:22.320 really
01:49:26.300 really interesting um all right let me go to uh jason he was just talking to the insiders and
01:49:34.800 giving them some information here that i had not heard where did you find this interview with
01:49:39.180 president trump uh this is a salem news channel i've never watched this before but uh yeah that's
01:49:45.820 where it's from ricky yeah jason i was just saying i noticed a watermark on it from clash
01:49:51.900 report which is one of those x accounts that we flagged as being affiliated with turkey and
01:49:57.520 propaganda you know between russia but we know that this interview did happen who is the president
01:50:02.800 who is interviewing the president here uh hugh hewitt oh the radio host okay okay so so um
01:50:12.440 hugh is talking to him about and says you know would you like to see the iranian people
01:50:17.460 rise up listen to what the president says it's fascinating listen to this so look if they had
01:50:24.520 guns which they don't have if they had guns you know guns were sent and other people took those
01:50:30.300 guns if they had guns they would fight back i'm convinced of that but you know you can't have an
01:50:36.180 unarmed population against people with ak-47s and stand there even if you have 250 000 people so
01:50:44.180 you know you started off by asking me would i like to see him and i'm very torn on it because
01:50:48.900 they lost 42 000 people in the first two weeks i don't really want to see that they have guns
01:50:55.260 and i think they're getting some guns as soon as they have guns they'll fight like like as good as
01:51:02.040 anybody there is so okay wait a minute hang on just a second what wait what what did he just say
01:51:09.560 guns were sent yeah guns were sent but they went to other people we was it the prince that we were
01:51:17.320 talking to who was it that we were talking to and he said that there were somebody was training
01:51:23.160 on the ground you remember that who was it that said it was an iranian activist oh yeah okay that's
01:51:28.980 right that's right that's right um and so we were talking about at that time looks like somebody's
01:51:33.620 sending guns or training or something over for the people um and so he said guns were sent but
01:51:40.540 they went to other people yeah same with i mean if that's not the story of ukraine i don't know
01:51:47.640 what is um and then and then he says i think they're getting guns well the president doesn't
01:51:54.340 think they're getting guns but does the president know you know what i mean um and so it looks like
01:52:00.560 it is the plan right jason to have the iranian people step up we we've known before in the past
01:52:07.100 we've heard that there will there will be a signal that's what that was it's almost a direct
01:52:11.440 quote that there will be a signal and right now the iranian people are told are being told to stand
01:52:15.600 stand by and uh there will be a signal and then that will be their cue to go out into the streets
01:52:21.300 and take their country back we we know this we it kind of looks like they're they're kind of in a
01:52:26.980 delay pattern right now because there's a lot of things that are working against the iranian regime
01:52:31.360 the blockade for one has exposed uh their economy and their oil production and capacity to to hold
01:52:37.740 the oil that is going nowhere right now so there's really no reason you know something wrong with
01:52:42.560 that you you asked earlier that i want to yeah go ahead you asked earlier why we're not hitting
01:52:48.520 uh different different targets right now and i personally i believe that they're still in that
01:52:52.800 kind of delay pattern. They're waiting to see how bad the economic situation gets before the rest
01:52:59.320 of the masses in Iran actually take to the streets. But I think it's interesting right now
01:53:04.460 how a lot of people in the administration are saying that the ceasefire has nullified or reset
01:53:11.120 the war powers restrictions that they were under. They're saying that it's completely reset the
01:53:14.940 timeframe. And even the operations they're doing right now in the Strait of Hormuz to escort ships
01:53:20.920 into and out that can be classified as well as humanitarian freedom of navigation correct it's
01:53:27.060 not war yeah so so they can still just sit back and wait real quick cuba um we should have more
01:53:33.720 on this tomorrow but uh he looks like the administration's getting serious about regime
01:53:38.480 change in cuba now yeah did you hear that yesterday yeah so yeah this goes this was a
01:53:45.820 proposal that the cubans made uh remember when they proposed to allow cubans uh that are american
01:53:52.280 citizens to invest and do business uh actually on the island of cuba and the trump administration
01:53:58.180 has now turned that down so i think they're looking at that as you know that the cuban
01:54:02.060 regime would use this as an you know basically economic muscle as relief so that they could
01:54:06.720 gain stronger so so we're continuing to choke that off so you know it again it looks like a
01:54:12.160 lot of people have not had eyes on cuba i think all eyes should be on cuba because a real action
01:54:17.740 should be coming it could be coming soon so there's a couple of other things uh more fraud
01:54:24.000 going to be coming out of ohio we're going to get into that what thursday maybe later this week i
01:54:31.260 reached out to the investigative reporter for daily wire who's uncovering all of it and he's
01:54:35.840 got more that he's going to unload so i'm sure um the let's see the muslim only water park event
01:54:43.860 in uh what what part of dallas is that in is that is that great wolf jason is whatever jason is all
01:54:52.460 over this story because we think jason is actually going to show up in his own burkini yeah i mean
01:54:59.460 this is a this is something that has city funds and they put out a deal that says Muslim only
01:55:06.600 water park day that upset a lot of people and then they changed it with the Islamic symbol
01:55:12.800 still on it and they just said moderate dress day at the water park and you know I'm I think
01:55:21.380 Sarah Gonzalez from the blaze is going to end up showing up there in a in a bikini I just I mean
01:55:26.000 and she doesn't want to do it oh gosh wouldn't that be you are our american doll yeah you are
01:55:34.600 so hot um also maybe we can get to this tomorrow on fauci uh but we are running out of time if
01:55:41.420 anybody's going to charge fauci statute of limitations runs out on this when just a few
01:55:46.620 days few days seven days like two days ago
01:55:48.880 is anybody gonna pay a price what do you think he's guilty of exactly i mean i know we had an
01:55:57.300 amazing special that outlined i think he is he's guilty of a lot of things he's guilty of and i
01:56:02.920 don't know i don't know law well enough to know but these are the things he did knowingly that
01:56:07.940 were wrong he violated our own law by sending over uh and working with um china on gain of function
01:56:17.760 that is against the law he did it knowingly he then lied to congress over and over again
01:56:24.020 he then hid all once the once the virus got out he knew what it was he knew exactly what it was
01:56:30.340 once the virus got out he then hid that information from the american people
01:56:34.920 i don't know if he told the president i doubt he did i don't know if he told the drug makers
01:56:40.540 Then he and his cohorts made millions of dollars on those drugs that were were done.
01:56:48.820 So did the federal government made millions of dollars.
01:56:52.200 He then lied to people about what we should do.
01:56:56.580 He scarred our children for decades because of what he did to the schools, his mask mandates, all of those things.
01:57:06.800 and i believe because he violated the first principle of hey we're not going to do these
01:57:12.160 gain of function tests uh i believe he's responsible for millions of people dead
01:57:17.440 somebody has to pay for that somebody has to pay for it and it has to be the most arrogant man
01:57:23.680 who called himself science uh i think it needs to be him i think it needs to be him and you know
01:57:30.840 He'll pay the ultimate price of justice when he goes to meet the Lord, but I'd like to see some justice happen here on earth through the justice system, not through bullets or anything else, through the justice system, because we're just encouraging people to continue to do this over and over and over and over again.
01:57:49.880 so um the saturday night we were doing this thing at um uh at ellis island and i get back to the
01:57:58.020 hotel and i said to the the doorman uh he said you look tired and i said hi it's been a long week

01:59:57.920 Sexy, sexy.
01:59:59.360 I don't know.
01:59:59.980 My brain can't process that.
02:00:01.360 Can you start at the beginning?
02:00:02.360 Erin Ariana
02:00:04.380 Philip Rose is the first black
02:00:06.220 transgender
02:00:06.620 yeah I can't say it
02:00:08.260 first black transgender person with
02:00:10.520 quadriplegic cerebral palsy
02:00:12.540 to be signed to a major modeling agent
02:00:14.800 just look at that
02:00:16.620 wrist if you're a torch insider you're
02:00:18.540 watching that is I mean I feel
02:00:20.260 I mean you know I'm glad that she
02:00:22.600 has a place in the world and everything
02:00:24.400 this used to be a dude
02:00:25.700 this is technically a dude
02:00:28.140 move on there's no place to go here
02:00:30.380 Okay. All right. You actually, someone sent you a tweet that you thought was Travis Kelsey wearing whatever this is. Can we bring up the B-roll of musical artist Sam Smith?
02:00:45.780 Oh, Sam Smith. How did I do that?
02:00:47.440 Look at that sexy, I don't know what that is.
02:00:51.280 What that is? Evil?
02:00:52.500 A Disney villain?
02:00:53.480 Evil. Just evil. I think that's evil.
02:00:55.700 Jason, is this what you're going to wear to a Muslim?
02:01:00.380 I still can't get over the fact that Glenn thought this was Travis Kelsey.
02:01:03.980 I can't.
02:01:04.740 I've got nothing after that.
02:01:06.980 It was marked.
02:01:08.020 It was marked as Travis.
02:01:09.340 I know, but there was the video.
02:01:11.400 I know he's a Kansas City Chiefs fan, but this is more proof a man does not know the NFL.
02:01:16.320 Yeah.
02:01:16.520 Oh, and I don't.
02:01:17.120 I don't know.
02:01:17.620 I actually want to apologize to Travis Kelsey for confusing him for Sam Smith.
02:01:21.760 Yeah.
02:01:22.260 And I am so glad.
02:01:23.660 But I mean, I immediately thought I saw the label and I'm like, oh, that can't be.
02:01:27.340 Is that really Travis?
02:01:28.320 and then i thought you know well he's with what's her face so probably remember all of this is for
02:01:33.680 a good cause the costume institute what i want to do i want somebody to investigate the costume
02:01:41.440 institute i want to know where it is what 42 million dollars this year and how many years
02:01:48.860 have they been doing it since how big is the damn since the 50s stand by it's actually founded in
02:01:54.500 1948. It started as a relatively modest midnight supper. Tickets were $50 back then.
02:02:02.960 Well, they probably knew that the Costume Institute wasn't going to cost them all that much.
02:02:08.140 I want to know. Seriously, I want to know. That sounds like a complete and total scam.
02:02:13.740 Maybe I'll change your mind about the worthiness of this charity when I show you how sexy Lena
02:02:19.700 dunham looked last night she arrived in a dress that looks like it was made from the corpses of
02:02:26.820 a thousand birds look at lena you are such lena dunham i thought that was the the puppet guy
02:02:33.960 no no she wrote the episode girls or the series girls it was on hbo yeah i missed that one you're
02:02:40.100 not no i'm not on that one boy anyways she looks like that high bird if he like went dark you have
02:02:45.320 like about a thousand mosquito bites yeah no you know what it is it's if elmo and big bird had a
02:02:51.480 baby and there was a third parent involved and it was human and they took on the the the the
02:03:00.960 traits of elmo's yeah color okay yeah yeah yeah but it's a bird and and and and and fat yeah yeah
02:03:11.340 I got to go to this costume Institute.
02:03:13.300 The next one is actress Heidi Klum.
02:03:15.720 She arrived as a real life marble statue.
02:03:17.940 Now Heidi is actually gorgeous and she has demonstrated real fashion choices,
02:03:23.180 not in the past,
02:03:24.940 but this is a very dramatic interpretation of fashion.
02:03:28.500 Can we show that Glenn?
02:03:29.640 What does that remind you of?
02:03:32.540 It's a combination of the Virgin Mary and the,
02:03:38.440 the guy the decaying guy from the davies whatever from from the oh i can't say the pirates of the
02:03:49.920 caribbean oh you know davies what was it davies chest or whatever that was i never saw the movie

02:04:00.840 what is it i don't know what it is other than it's fashion baby just just get on board it's
