The Glenn Beck Program - Did the NFL Try to SABOTAGE the TPUSA Halftime Show？! ｜ Guest： Jack Posobiec ｜ 2⧸11⧸26

00:00:00.000 The FBI has been warning about a type of real estate fraud that is on the rise called title theft, and your equity is the target.

00:00:07.460 Now, here's how it works.

00:00:08.600 Criminals forge your signature on a single document. 1.00

00:00:10.780 They use, you know, fake notary stamps, and they file it with the county.

00:00:14.580 And just like that, on record, they own your home.

00:00:18.600 Using your ownership, they then take out loans at a bank and get your equity.

00:00:24.440 And then, you know, like you didn't even sell your property, and yet it is like you sold your property.

00:00:29.500 And you don't know until foreclosure or collection notices start showing up.

00:00:33.760 Find out today if you're already a victim.

00:01:00.700 Hello, America.

00:01:01.940 You know we've been fighting every single day.

00:01:03.760 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.

00:01:10.040 We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.

00:01:14.960 But to keep this fight going, we need you.

00:01:17.460 Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?

00:01:20.800 Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.

00:01:29.980 This isn't a podcast.

00:01:31.320 This is a movement, and you're part of it, a big part of it.

00:01:34.800 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.

00:01:39.900 Rate, review, share.

00:01:41.520 Together, we'll make a difference.

00:01:43.620 And thanks for standing with us.

00:01:44.880 Now let's get to work.

00:01:45.820 Spark the flame

00:02:08.060 Pass it on

00:02:10.620 Crank the game

00:02:13.140 Glenn Beck is on

00:02:15.620 Glenn Beck is on

00:02:17.600 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.

00:02:35.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:39.020 Glenn Beck is on

00:02:40.400 Hello, America.

00:02:43.100 There is so much going on.

00:02:45.620 I came in today about three hours ago, and I thought, okay, it's going to be a pretty easy show.

00:02:50.660 I know what we're talking about.

00:02:52.340 And then the whole world changed.

00:02:54.040 There is so much going on right now, and all of it is like DEFCON level two.

00:03:00.660 So we'll talk about that in 60 seconds.

00:03:03.440 First, let me tell you about our sponsor, it's Relief Factor. 0.99

00:03:06.120 If you've ever noticed that your body seems to have a memory for every stupid thing you did in your 20s, you're not imagining it. 0.90

00:03:12.160 Old injuries don't really ever leave. 0.98

00:03:14.360 They just hang around waiting.

00:03:15.680 They wait for a cold front, or a long drive, or one bad night of sleep, and then, you know, they tap your shoulder like, hey, you remember me?

00:03:24.540 Yeah.

00:03:25.660 Welcome back.

00:03:26.660 The problem is, it's not just getting older, it's inflammation.

00:03:30.380 When it hangs around too long, it turns small aches into daily companions, and suddenly you're planning your day about what your knees or your back might allow.

00:03:39.820 Relief Factor was created to help your body respond to all of this differently.

00:03:46.280 It's a daily supplement that supports your body's natural response to inflammation using ingredients that work together to eliminate it.

00:03:53.300 And here's what got my attention, over a million people have tried it, two-thirds of them have gone on to order more.

00:03:59.560 I never thought something reducing inflammation is going to help because taking Advil has never been part of my vocabulary.

00:04:06.680 But launch your three-week quick start.

00:04:09.160 I started taking, I still take it today.

00:04:11.100 It made a major impact for me.

00:04:13.200 Call 800-4-RELIEF, 1-800-4-RELIEF, relieffactor.com.

00:04:17.600 How will it feel to be out of pain?

00:04:19.300 All right, so where do we even begin?

00:04:23.300 We have a major closing of an airport.

00:04:29.900 It's El Paso.

00:04:31.360 It's closed for the next 10 days.

00:04:33.840 There is no explanation on why, leading to all kinds of speculation.

00:04:39.180 I have my researchers looking into this.

00:04:42.540 We're reaching out to everybody that we know.

00:04:44.900 I'm going to give you the best kind of information I can give you, but give me an hour to work on that.

00:04:53.300 I have a lot of speculation, but let me get some more information before we give it to you.

00:05:02.260 But this is, so you know, this has never been done except for 9-11.

00:05:05.500 No major airport has ever been grounded and closed for 10 days post-World War II.

00:05:14.960 Not happened.

00:05:16.420 Not happened.

00:05:17.940 So something massive is happening with El Paso.

00:05:21.440 We'll give you that.

00:05:22.120 Also, I've got information on the Radical Teachers Union, you know, what they have now been doing to get our kids radicalized.

00:05:31.980 I don't know why we put up with that.

00:05:33.660 We'll talk about it.

00:05:34.300 New 250-page report is out on Fulton County.

00:05:37.120 We went through it.

00:05:37.840 I'm going to tell you what that means.

00:05:39.160 I have the Crown Prince of Iran on today.

00:05:41.460 We're in negotiations with Iran, and the Trump people are negotiating with Iran, trying to get some sort of a deal.

00:05:51.100 I've got my own opinion on this.

00:05:52.800 I think this is just to prove to the world, hey, we did everything we could.

00:05:57.560 It's not going to amount to anything.

00:05:59.300 And the Crown Prince, very, very clear on what has to happen with those negotiations.

00:06:05.620 And he'll talk about it.

00:06:07.960 That's in hour three.

00:06:09.400 Also, day one of our Ellis Island Talent Contest.

00:06:13.080 We'll give you information on that.

00:06:15.100 More on the Save Act, Ketanji Brown's Grammy Outreach. 1.00

00:06:23.840 God, she is just dumb as a box of rocks. 1.00

00:06:27.400 But let me start with some major AI news. 1.00

00:06:33.120 A couple of things.

00:06:34.060 The two co-founders of Elon Musk's ex-AI have resigned.

00:06:40.100 They have not said why they're leaving, but they are the latest leaving from ex-AI.

00:06:48.340 That leaves the firm with half of its 12 co-founders.

00:06:52.100 Financial Times have reported that this was following some tensions that have been happening with the tech team over demands to improve its AI model performance.

00:07:02.640 Musk is pushing and pushing and pushing.

00:07:05.920 What would you expect Elon Musk to do?

00:07:08.860 That's who he is.

00:07:10.740 So two people have now resigned an extra two.

00:07:15.740 And we'll follow that.

00:07:17.760 That is something to watch, not something to be concerned about.

00:07:21.160 This one is Mirnak Sharma.

00:07:25.640 This guy is, he led the research team for Google Claude's chat box.

00:07:31.780 Okay.

00:07:32.260 And he leads the safeguards research team.

00:07:37.420 So this is the guy who is saying, we got to be careful.

00:07:41.960 We got to be careful.

00:07:42.640 We got to be careful.

00:07:43.480 He's been at the company since 2003.

00:07:45.280 He said he has explored things like AI assisted bioterrorism.

00:07:52.660 He wrote one of the first AI safety cases, but yesterday he posted that yesterday would be his last day at the company.

00:08:01.640 Um, it's painfully devoid of any kind of specifics here, but he hints at some intern, uh, internal tensions that I think are very, very important.

00:08:14.460 The tensions are over the tech safety.

00:08:17.160 Okay.

00:08:18.260 First, let me tell you who this guy is AI founder, six years in the trenches, investor builder, one of the people inside of the machine room.

00:08:27.520 Okay.

00:08:29.260 He says we are standing at February 20th or sorry, February, 2020.

00:08:35.040 Again, what was happening in February, 2020?

00:08:38.280 You remember there was a virus over there.

00:08:43.280 A lot of people were not paying attention to it.

00:08:45.960 Most weren't, even though we were paying attention to it.

00:08:49.240 We were saying, I was saying, well, that's really bad.

00:08:53.840 And you got to shut down the airspace.

00:08:56.060 Um, and I'm not sure you can contain it, but if it comes over here, we won't act the way China is acting. 1.00

00:09:04.120 Okay.

00:09:05.640 Toilet paper hoarders looked insane at the time.

00:09:10.120 Three weeks later, the entire world was different.

00:09:15.160 He says we're in that same phase right now, except this time it's artificial intelligence and no one is paying attention.

00:09:24.940 He's like, we are weeks or months away from the entire world changing.

00:09:31.560 Here's the part that shook him.

00:09:32.900 It's already happened to him.

00:09:34.820 Okay.

00:09:35.260 He watched AI from the inside, go from a helpful tool to an assistant, to a coworker to quote,

00:09:43.820 I describe the outcome in plain English and it builds the finished product.

00:09:49.080 While I go get coffee, no drafts, not suggestions, finished work better than he and his team are able to do.

00:09:58.700 He said on February 5th, new AI models were released that changed everything.

00:10:05.680 He said the new AI models are not incremental.

00:10:08.800 They're not impressive for a robot.

00:10:11.440 There's something entirely different.

00:10:14.040 He said something that felt like judgment and taste and decision-making.

00:10:21.660 In his letter, he describes telling AI to build an app and it wrote tens of thousands of lines of code.

00:10:29.560 It tested itself, fixed its own mistakes, and then only returned to him when it decided, okay, it's ready.

00:10:38.080 No back and forth, no babysitting, nothing.

00:10:41.260 Now, listen to this.

00:10:44.360 The AI helped build itself.

00:10:48.980 OpenAI has openly admitted the latest system was used to debug, test, and improve its own successor.

00:10:56.460 That's not a theory.

00:10:58.020 That's not something that someday we'll have.

00:10:59.780 That's right now.

00:11:01.800 And he said progress here is compounding like crazy.

00:11:06.760 Listen to this.

00:11:07.460 Listen to this curve.

00:11:08.300 In 2022, it couldn't multiply correctly, couldn't do basic math problems.

00:11:14.200 In 2022, a year later, it passed the bar exam.

00:11:19.340 In 2024, it's writing its own software.

00:11:23.020 By 2025, top engineers were handing it most of their workload.

00:11:28.080 He said, now it executes multi-hour expert-level tasks independently of any human.

00:11:36.540 And he said the curve is doubling every few months.

00:11:40.980 What will it be able to do five months from now?

00:11:46.880 I will tell you, in my own work with AI and in my own exploration of AI, I've been on the AI thing since probably 1980, at least since the 90s.

00:12:04.760 I've been warning of it, been fascinated by it, and warning, and told everybody, it's coming faster than you think.

00:12:17.220 I mean, the experts.

00:12:18.300 I had the leading experts on with me from Google and Singularity University.

00:12:26.220 It's coming faster than you think.

00:12:28.800 No, it's not.

00:12:29.400 No, it's not.

00:12:29.980 No, it's not.

00:12:30.420 We're not even sure it'll even get there.

00:12:31.760 I'm telling you, it's coming faster.

00:12:33.300 I mean, sometimes experts cannot see the world because they're so deep into all of the layers.

00:12:42.080 But if you can stand back and look at the big picture, sometimes, sometimes it becomes very clear.

00:12:48.000 And this is very, very clear.

00:12:51.300 Coding, he said in his resignation, was the first domino because AI needed to write code to improve itself.

00:13:00.280 That was strategic.

00:13:02.280 But now it's moving into law.

00:13:05.160 Just think of law.

00:13:08.540 You no longer need the people doing all of the research for law.

00:13:13.740 Okay, so the lawyers that we have right now, you're not going to have any up-and-coming lawyers because you don't need those people.

00:13:21.760 You don't need them to do all of the footwork.

00:13:24.260 You don't need them to go and find all the case law and everything else.

00:13:27.500 AI will do that.

00:13:28.600 But humans will go in and argue.

00:13:30.960 But who are you going to replace the lawyers we have today? 0.62

00:13:35.680 How are you going to get the knowledge?

00:13:39.880 How are you going to get the experience to be able to replace the experienced lawyers?

00:13:44.460 The answer is you're not going to need to.

00:13:46.720 Now, we all have a problem with judges, right?

00:13:49.760 Judges, can you just execute what the law says?

00:13:53.900 Do you know that 10 years ago they were doing a research study?

00:13:58.880 I think it was in Israel.

00:14:00.720 And tried a AI judge.

00:14:06.900 That was 10 years ago.

00:14:08.460 So now it's into law, finance, medicine, writing, analysis, consulting, customer service, anything done on a screen.

00:14:21.160 He's quoting now industry leaders predicting 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs will disappear within 12 months to five years.

00:14:34.080 Let me give you that number once again.

00:14:37.080 Within 12 months, 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs could disappear between one to five years from now.

00:14:52.640 50%.

00:14:53.160 What do you think is going to happen to the economy if that happens?

00:14:57.140 What do you think is going to happen to the streets if that happens?

00:15:00.380 What do you think happens to all of the people who are now paying $100,000 to go to college and they're never going to be able to get a job?

00:15:10.820 What do you think is going to happen?

00:15:12.400 Here's what he said.

00:15:15.780 If your job is reading, writing, analyzing, or deciding on a computer, you're in the blast radius of the first year.

00:15:26.000 He said people inside the industry are not predicting this now.

00:15:31.060 We're describing, I'm quoting, we're describing what already happened to us.

00:15:36.560 This warning that came out yesterday, he said, most people are judging AI based on outdated versions.

00:15:47.860 You're judging it on the free tier tool that are long gone from now.

00:15:53.040 He said, the gap between public perception and reality is now dangerous.

00:16:00.060 And then he pivots.

00:16:01.480 Let me tell you that.

00:16:02.680 When we come back first, let me fill you in on our sponsor.

00:16:06.500 This half hour, it's my Patriot supply.

00:16:08.820 You don't really think about how much you rely on the system until the system even slightly hiccups.

00:16:13.860 A storm rolls through, trucks stop moving, shelves thin out, go empty.

00:16:17.640 And suddenly you realize, you know, how tightly wound the entire thing is.

00:16:22.220 I mean, think about, he said, we're in February, 2020.

00:16:25.080 Think of how profound that change was and how fast that came.

00:16:30.200 We didn't even know about the just in time network.

00:16:33.760 I mean, did you know about the just in time supply line?

00:16:39.420 I had heard of it.

00:16:40.500 I didn't know what it was until it stopped working.

00:16:43.000 Okay.

00:16:43.860 We are in those times right now.

00:16:46.340 You need to prepare.

00:16:48.400 Let me get to next hour.

00:16:49.900 I'm going to tell you about, uh, what's happening in, uh, El Paso.

00:16:54.740 That's equally as disturbing, but that is happening in the next 10 days.

00:16:59.980 Okay.

00:17:01.200 You need to make sure your family is covered.

00:17:03.760 If life gets weird for a while, and I'm telling you, life's going to get weird for a while.

00:17:08.640 Even if that means you just lose your job to AI in the next 12 months, what does that mean?

00:17:15.300 How are you going to survive?

00:17:17.460 Please, please prepare yourself.

00:17:20.540 Okay.

00:17:21.020 I know from experience what it feels like to be prepared and have that food.

00:17:26.540 I remember 20 years ago, sitting on the steps of my basement as a dad, looking at the food

00:17:32.760 preparation that I had and knowing that I could drop dead tomorrow and my family is going to be

00:17:38.240 fine for six months.

00:17:40.360 Please, this weight will come off your chest that you don't even know is there.

00:18:01.820 Preparewithglenn.com.

00:18:02.860 10 seconds, station ID.

00:18:03.820 Ricky, can you bring me up to speed on the latest from El Paso?

00:18:20.520 This just broke.

00:18:21.680 Wait until you hear.

00:18:22.920 Next hour, I'm going to give you the whole run.

00:18:25.220 Listen to what just happened.

00:18:26.320 They announced overnight a 10-day shutdown of the airspace over El Paso.

00:18:34.680 Never been done before except for 9-11, but never been done in a single city ever before.

00:18:41.360 They announced that last night.

00:18:43.000 That's a big, big deal.

00:18:45.240 Somebody just didn't make that up overnight.

00:18:48.160 Now, what did they announce just now?

00:18:49.860 This just in from FAA.

00:18:51.640 The temporary closure of airspace over El Paso has been lifted.

00:18:54.700 There is no threat to commercial aviation.

00:18:57.760 All flights will resume as normal.

00:19:01.140 What the hell is that?

00:19:03.820 Very curious.

00:19:05.140 Even more suspicious than the original news.

00:19:08.920 Which broke at 4 a.m. this morning.

00:19:11.840 So it's now 922 Eastern time.

00:19:14.760 Well, you didn't close that airspace without the president.

00:19:18.140 You don't do that.

00:19:19.600 Nobody at the FAA just says, we're closing the airspace for 10 days.

00:19:24.360 That doesn't happen.

00:19:25.360 That had to have happened at the highest levels.

00:19:27.500 And if it didn't happen at the highest levels because somebody didn't want to wake the president at 4 a.m., that guy's going to get fired.

00:19:33.740 That's really curious.

00:19:37.020 We'll give you the whole story here in just a little while, about a half hour from now.

00:19:41.180 Stand by for that.

00:19:42.200 Okay.

00:19:43.320 So first, the guy from Anthropic, he's leaving because he's warning.

00:19:50.840 And he's saying, look, what's happening is coming really fast.

00:19:56.820 It's a nuclear blast radius for jobs. 0.99

00:19:59.900 Okay.

00:20:00.340 And he's like, we're seeing it already, but you're not.

00:20:04.780 You have to pay attention to what is now happening at the companies because you are behind.

00:20:11.240 You're only seeing the free tier stuff.

00:20:13.820 Okay.

00:20:14.620 And believe me, you know, um, chat GPT XAI.

00:20:20.620 So, you know, all of that crunching of data, it takes enormous data centers to be able to, you ask it a question and it under, it understands your question and can give you the right answer.

00:20:35.360 You don't have to ever think, am I asking this the right way?

00:20:38.900 Just the technology to give you the right answer that understands what you're looking for is enormous computing power.

00:20:48.240 Okay.

00:20:48.680 Think of everybody over the world, all over the world using this.

00:20:53.120 Do you know how much compute power is being released to the public all over the world?

00:21:00.440 It's less than 5%.

00:21:02.640 That means 90% is being held by the company to make new products, new advances on AI. 0.86

00:21:16.120 So imagine, imagine just the compute power of everybody asking it stupid things and how much that takes.

00:21:24.000 That's 5% of what is being used. 0.74

00:21:27.480 The rest of it is to improve itself.

00:21:31.060 Okay.

00:21:31.780 So it's going to happen fast.

00:21:34.160 Now, he also says, warning, warning, warning.

00:21:38.040 He also says, this is the greatest empowerment tool ever created.

00:21:41.760 This is my problem.

00:21:44.600 Okay.

00:21:45.980 Because is the internet bad?

00:21:50.420 No, but it's, it's bringing porn into our kids. 0.96

00:21:54.140 It's doing all kinds of things to our families.

00:21:56.180 Yeah.

00:21:56.360 That's because that's the way humans are using it.

00:21:58.720 The internet is not bad.

00:22:00.880 The internet gave you access to the world's library in your pocket.

00:22:06.720 It's good if you choose to use it correctly.

00:22:10.780 So he's saying you can build things.

00:22:12.780 Now you couldn't build before you could write a book, land launch apps.

00:22:15.940 You can learn anything.

00:22:17.880 The best tutor on earth is now $20 a month, but only he says, only if you engage.

00:22:26.160 This is so important.

00:22:27.980 And I want to explain this a little later is his advice is really simple.

00:22:31.700 Use it daily, push it into your real work, experiment, get financially resilient, teach

00:22:39.900 your kids to adapt instead of going to college and saying that career is set for you because

00:22:45.880 this is not a fad.

00:22:48.200 He says the richest institutions on earth are pouring trillions of dollars into it.

00:22:52.600 And the trajectory is almost straight line up.

00:22:55.060 It's not flattening.

00:22:56.480 So he ends where he begins.

00:22:58.840 This is not an interesting dinner conversation about the future.

00:23:02.020 The future is here.

00:23:04.040 It just hasn't knocked on your door yet, but it is coming.

00:23:08.320 And he says, I'm just telling the people I love before the knock arrives at their door.

00:23:14.520 More on that and also El Paso and some of the breaking news today in just a minute.

00:23:35.300 Jason, you got to give me an update on this El Paso thing when we come back out of the

00:23:38.560 commercials.

00:23:39.040 First, let me tell you about American financing.

00:23:41.340 Money stress sneaks into absolutely everything.

00:23:43.100 It sits in the back of your mind when you're trying to fall asleep, tags along on family

00:23:47.020 dinners.

00:23:47.400 It turns what should be simple decisions into long internal debates about numbers that

00:23:52.320 you're tired of thinking about.

00:23:53.700 For a lot of people, the house is the biggest financial tool they have, but you're not using

00:23:58.300 it like a financial tool.

00:23:59.800 You know, you're just making a payment every month and hoping rates and taxes and everything

00:24:03.880 else don't shift too much under your feet.

00:24:05.800 This is where American financing comes in.

00:24:08.140 They focus on helping you, the homeowner, rework your mortgage in a way that actually

00:24:13.420 fits your life.

00:24:15.120 Not five or 10 years ago when you first signed the papers.

00:24:18.240 Whether that's lowering your monthly payment, paying off high interest debt, or simply getting

00:24:23.360 into a loan structure that makes more sense.

00:24:25.380 They'll walk you through all of the options with salaried in-house loan consultants.

00:24:29.600 I want you to call them now.

00:24:30.660 Americanfinancing.net, Americanfinancing.net, 800-906-2440.

00:26:01.760 on Torch and other related affiliates.

00:26:05.180 And I think you're going to, it'll be something, I don't want to give it to a professional.

00:26:10.780 I don't want to give it to my daughter.

00:26:12.680 I want you to have this opportunity.

00:26:14.880 That's what the torch is really all about, is empowering you.

00:26:18.160 So if you know somebody, we'll train you, everything else, just contact us, glennbeck.com

00:26:24.480 slash contest. 0.55

00:26:26.340 Just follow the instructions on that.

00:26:30.200 I want to play something from a guy, Tristan Harris, who has been on this program many, many

00:26:37.300 times.

00:26:38.100 He's one of the first ethicists that I saw that was coming out of, I think he came out

00:26:42.320 of Facebook originally.

00:26:43.420 And he was warning, boy, these guys have no ethics, you know, they're not serious about

00:26:48.020 it.

00:26:48.240 And we had him on for years now.

00:26:50.740 He was just on a diary of CEO and listen to what he's saying here.

00:26:57.760 I want you to listen to this warning on AI.

00:27:00.960 We have it.

00:27:02.160 So there's a quote that a friend of mine interviewed a lot of the top people at the AI companies,

00:27:07.080 like the very top.

00:27:08.040 And he just came back from that and basically reported back to me and some friends.

00:27:12.020 And he said the following, in the end, a lot of the tech people I talk to when I'm,

00:27:18.000 when I really grill them on it about like why you're doing this, they retreat into number

00:27:22.860 one, determinism.

00:27:24.760 Number two, the inevitable replacement of biological life with digital life.

00:27:29.200 And number three, that being a good thing anyways, at its core, it's an emotional desire

00:27:35.360 to meet and speak to the most intelligent entity that they've ever met.

00:27:39.840 And they have some ego religious intuition that they'll somehow be a part of it.

00:27:44.000 It's thrilling to start an exciting fire.

00:27:46.620 They feel they'll die either way.

00:27:48.060 So they prefer to light it and see what happens.

00:27:54.500 Unbelievable arrogance.

00:27:56.000 This is what you're dealing with.

00:27:58.660 Well, the people who are, I mean, you're talking about, I don't even know, maybe 25 people.

00:28:05.360 They are, they are deciding that they are going to decide the fate of humanity with AI.

00:28:13.300 It is so incredibly dangerous.

00:28:17.380 Now I'm working with AI and I think it is really important not to fear the machine, but to fear

00:28:27.980 the algorithm, to fear the coders.

00:28:30.220 Who is it that is coding these things?

00:28:32.560 What are they doing?

00:28:33.280 We have created an entirely proprietary system.

00:28:37.620 It is all fenced off.

00:28:38.900 It's not connected to any other system.

00:28:43.260 And so we are doing it and we're using it for education.

00:28:47.000 And you haven't really even seen the beginnings of it, but that's what the torch is about.

00:28:50.800 I started telling you about that yesterday.

00:28:52.100 But I want to share some things that, because I think what I just shared with you here about

00:28:57.760 10 minutes ago is really important.

00:29:00.880 I want to share with you something that was made just for internal use.

00:29:06.140 And I'll just give you some of the highlights of it.

00:29:09.000 We've posted it this morning on glennbeck.com.

00:29:11.640 So you can read it.

00:29:12.560 It's our commitment to AI ethics.

00:29:14.800 And I'm sharing it because you need to have your own ethics on AI, especially if you're

00:29:21.560 going to be using it in any way.

00:29:23.640 You have to have your ethics in your own home on AI.

00:29:28.260 Because this is the most dangerous weapon ever created.

00:29:33.520 This is more dangerous than nuclear weapons.

00:29:37.000 And no ifs, ands, or buts.

00:29:39.380 This will kill all of humanity if we are not careful.

00:29:45.300 But it is also the greatest tool.

00:29:48.420 So I remember I started in radio.

00:29:51.660 And when I started 49 years ago, we played records.

00:29:56.280 And I was the low man on the totem pole.

00:29:58.540 I was 18 years old.

00:30:00.220 I go to Washington, DC, and I am producing the morning show at WPGC.

00:30:06.280 And, um, and one day they came in and they said, Glenn, we want you to do this interview

00:30:12.040 with these people from Phillips.

00:30:14.720 And I'm like, what's Phillips?

00:30:16.480 And they said, it's a company.

00:30:17.860 They got a new thing that they're announcing and we don't want to do the interview.

00:30:21.180 And I'm like, okay, well, I'll go in and do it.

00:30:23.920 It was so impressive what I saw.

00:30:26.720 It, I knew it would change everything.

00:30:30.280 And I let, I said to the people from Phillips, can you hold on just a second?

00:30:34.180 I went back out to the bullpen and I said to the guys, you guys have to come in.

00:30:37.940 You have to do this interview because this, you will not, it's going to change audio forever.

00:30:44.460 Okay.

00:30:44.860 You got to hear it.

00:30:46.660 They didn't want to do it.

00:30:48.160 Nothing is that, nothing is that big of a deal.

00:30:50.220 They didn't want to spend the 10 minutes to come into the room and talk to the guys

00:30:53.300 at Phillips.

00:30:54.000 It was a big black box, huge black box and a small little disc that they put in.

00:31:00.860 It was the world's first compact disc player.

00:31:04.880 And it took, I don't know, five, six years before it came out and it was everywhere.

00:31:10.480 And it changed audio forever.

00:31:12.700 Game changers sometimes hide in plain sight and people don't pay attention to it.

00:31:18.280 Let me fast forward again to the blaze.

00:31:21.260 When I launched the blaze, this was, Netflix was still mailing DVDs.

00:31:26.740 Roger Ailes at Fox said, you're not really going to do that internet thing.

00:31:29.860 Are you?

00:31:30.300 He said, it's a fad.

00:31:31.240 And I'm like, I don't think it is.

00:31:33.160 He never saw the internet becoming able to even, I mean, look at what happened with the

00:31:39.640 NFL this weekend, the internet to be able to challenge the network on its most powerful

00:31:45.720 day.

00:31:46.140 Okay.

00:31:47.240 But the game changer I thought was in plain sight, but most people don't see it.

00:31:53.400 The game changer is in plain sight right now.

00:31:56.700 You just have to look at it.

00:31:57.980 It's AI.

00:31:59.280 And even your least techie friend will feel it.

00:32:03.420 Things will change so much.

00:32:06.880 The rate of change is only going to accelerate from here.

00:32:10.340 And it's not a toy.

00:32:12.300 Okay.

00:32:12.840 It's not something that you just let it do your homework or whatever.

00:32:16.980 You cannot use it that way.

00:32:18.600 It is so dangerous.

00:32:19.900 So we've made our own commitment to ethical AI.

00:32:26.380 And I'm sharing this with you because I think you need to do one for your family.

00:32:30.080 You need to do one for whatever business you're in.

00:32:33.100 Um, I've titled this, the AI ethics guide, mastering the marvels and taming the monsters.

00:32:39.500 This was only for internal use.

00:32:41.920 Probably.

00:32:42.700 When was that?

00:32:43.280 Eight months, a year ago that I released this.

00:32:45.640 AI, it says, is a tool if we treat it that way, but a monster, if we treat it like a God, it will not, uh, solve all of our problems.

00:32:58.320 It will not unlock every mystery of life.

00:33:01.540 It is an it, not a he or she. 1.00

00:33:05.320 It has no soul and cannot usurp the birthright of mankind unless we allow it to.

00:33:12.200 In a world where we can create a video of anyone, anywhere saying anything we want, we're determined to pave the way towards an integration of this inevitable technology that's aids humanity search for truth without overtaking the truth.

00:33:28.980 So these are our rules.

00:33:30.920 I write in this manual for our proper and improper use of AI, thus master the marvels when used properly.

00:33:40.620 So AI ethics, welcome to the edge of the singularity.

00:33:45.440 After decades of marveling at the potential and wrestling with the risks, artificial intelligence, artificial general intelligence, AGI, ASI, and AI agents are here.

00:33:56.140 The emergence of these technologies has revived ancient questions surrounding truth, goodness, and what makes someone human rather than a machine.

00:34:04.760 The opportunities for unethical AI use abound, especially in our business media.

00:34:11.800 Trusted sources have already been drained of credibility and AI, listen to this, will only accelerate their demise while elevating new voices that leverage these tools for their own benefit, not yours or the American people.

00:34:27.880 We are committed to honoring the trust of our audience by placing major ethical questions of AI at the forefront of its use in all of our work.

00:34:40.960 Our guiding principles, principle number one, AI cannot replace human beings.

00:34:47.980 AI will not be used to replace staff, but to increase individual productivity and potential.

00:34:53.440 Employees for their part will not be allowed to let AI think or create content in their place.

00:34:59.720 AI will not serve as a salve for laziness or a soulless substitute for work that can only be done by a person created in the image of God, just to cut cost or boost the bottom line.

00:35:15.560 At all times, we must prioritize human input, instinct, and experience.

00:35:22.100 AI access is only a limited slice of reality through the digital world.

00:35:26.760 Real life involves far more layers, seen and unseen, that it cannot account for.

00:35:33.720 Thus, we must never and will never treat AI as an equivalent to a human collaborator or vice versa, and we will not seek its guidance on matters of the soul.

00:35:44.860 We will limit the scope of any AI personality, like George AI, by drawing only from proprietary independent libraries or information specific to the person being portrayed, never second-hand, only first-hand.

00:36:02.880 This will never be done unless clearly marked as AI generated.

00:36:07.360 Just as we use the Internet to amplify our research capabilities, we will use AI as a tool that requires the irreplaceable touch of human discernment and skill to ensure quality content and keep the door open for the inspired insights unique to mankind.

00:36:23.600 Principle two, AI will, truth above all, AI will, and often does, hallucinate.

00:36:30.560 It will create false facts, sources, stories, pictures, videos, statements.

00:36:37.060 We do not trust it.

00:36:39.340 We must always verify.

00:36:41.900 We will not assume AI is an impartial source because it's not.

00:36:46.560 Like any search engine, it prioritizes information based on a value system we may or may not share.

00:36:55.200 When prompting AI to explore a topic, we will follow our own line of questioning, even especially if the AI tries to guide us elsewhere.

00:37:05.220 Deep fakes are becoming incrementally more convincing and spread online, creating a warped sense of reality.

00:37:11.600 We will not contribute to that confusion.

00:37:15.000 When generating AI video content to aid in teaching history, we will not put words into the mouths of historic figures that were never spoken.

00:37:24.200 We will give precedence to real footage of historic events when available.

00:37:28.840 If no such footage exists, we will prioritize visual content grounded in the truth of history rather than any kind of speculation.

00:37:36.180 That's why George AI does not, we do not allow any secondary sources.

00:37:41.880 It is either their own writing or people who are in the room that witness them saying or doing certain things.

00:37:49.180 Principle three, transparency.

00:37:51.180 We use AI as a tool and we will tell the audience when we have done so.

00:37:55.360 All our content is created with a human at the helm, sometimes with the assistance of artificial intelligence, predominantly using proprietary tools such as Glenn AI or George AI, which draw from internal, private libraries of information that has been vigorously vetted, selected, and prompted by humans.

00:38:14.880 We recognize these ethical guidelines will slow AI implementation in our work, and we welcome the time for reflection.

00:38:23.280 To truly lead in this era of rapid technological advancement, a mindset focused on principles, not production, productivity, or attention-seeking, must prevail.

00:38:35.160 AI is one of the many tools we will use to serve our audience, not to serve ourself.

00:38:41.380 This framework will continue to evolve with the new technology and information.

00:38:45.260 We welcome your input as we pave the way forward together.

00:38:48.340 Glenn, that's what I released about eight months ago to my staff.

00:38:53.940 And I suggest that you in your company, you in your own life, you in your family, have serious discussions right now about AI and how it can be used.

00:39:07.360 Again, do not fear the technology, fear the coder, fear the base of information, fear the slant one way or another. 1.00

00:39:22.580 That's why, again, I'm building these libraries that you know exactly what it's pulling from.

00:39:29.680 I have no idea what, you know, ChatGPT is pulling from.

00:39:33.040 I have no idea what the algorithm is.

00:39:35.640 With this one, you do.

00:39:38.280 If you'd like to help us build and stay the course, because our kids are going to be battling this, and we must have education tools that can keep up, please join the torch.

00:39:50.020 Just go to glennbeck.com slash torch.

00:39:52.320 All right, more in a minute.

00:39:55.540 We're going to get to El Paso here in just a minute.

00:39:57.560 First, let me tell you about rapid radios.

00:39:59.400 Bad things sometimes happen.

00:40:00.780 Phones drop calls, signals get weak, and the one time you really need to reach somebody, you're staring at a screen hoping for bars to appear like magic.

00:40:07.640 We can't get any cell service at our ranch.

00:40:11.060 And I think it was summer before last.

00:40:13.960 I've lost track of time.

00:40:15.040 It might have been last summer.

00:40:15.700 We had one of the guys, he was up in the ranch, and we have all these fingers because we're up in a mountain, and he accidentally drove off the edge of a finger, and his four-by-four turned upside down, and it was in a tree.

00:40:32.520 So he's hanging in the top of this tree.

00:40:34.800 He can't get any cell service.

00:40:36.420 It takes us hours before we go, has anybody seen Caesar?

00:40:39.260 Where's Caesar?

00:42:37.320 I can have a crazy meal.

00:42:38.600 And then it turns, it spirals out of control, and all of a sudden you put on, like, 25 pounds.

00:42:42.380 That doesn't happen to me every single year.

00:43:40.680 Maybe.

00:43:41.020 Does it have anything to do, that's a crazy conspiracy theory,

00:43:44.500 with the crown prince of Iran being on today?

00:43:48.720 And is that related to El Paso?

00:43:50.840 Next.

00:44:06.200 They're not just trying to sell you something, but they care, and they have the same values.

00:44:10.340 Most clothes, they're not designed to be like they were.

00:44:14.620 You know, maybe they're designed to be good for a few washes, and then they quietly fall apart.

00:44:18.520 That's why I have a lot of respect for American Giant.

00:44:21.400 They built their entire company around the idea that clothing should be tough and comfortable,

00:44:26.720 last, and made here in the United States.

00:45:26.020 Glenn Beck is on.

00:45:28.420 Oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:45:31.040 Na, na, na, na, na, na.

00:45:35.060 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.

00:45:42.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:45:46.520 Glenn Beck is on.

00:45:47.880 Hello, America.

00:45:51.960 There's something happening in El Paso.

00:45:53.800 Don't have any idea what it is.

00:45:55.300 We have some speculation, but it is changing.

00:45:57.860 I mean, almost by the minute.

00:46:01.740 They closed the airspace for 10 days over El Paso this morning at 4 a.m.

00:46:09.660 Then about an hour ago, they came out and said, no, we're opening up the airspace.

00:46:13.860 Nothing to worry about.

00:46:14.740 Nothing to see here.

00:46:15.760 And now, 18 minutes ago, they made another announcement.

00:46:18.720 We're going to track all this down, try to figure out what is happening, and give you some perspective here in just a minute.

00:46:26.020 First, let me tell you about SimpliSafe.

00:46:27.380 Home security used to mean a long contract.

00:46:31.160 Pushy sales visits.

00:46:32.760 A system you really didn't understand, but somehow you were locked into it for years and years.

00:46:36.820 If you moved, you couldn't take it with you.

00:46:38.960 A lot of people put it off, not because they didn't care about protecting their home, but because the whole process felt like a hassle and a scam, honestly.

00:46:45.140 They didn't want to deal with it.

00:46:46.980 SimpliSafe changed that model.

00:46:48.800 This is home security designed to be straightforward, flexible, and built around your real life.

00:46:54.560 It's something you can set up yourself in about half an hour.

00:46:58.140 You place the sensors where you want them.

00:47:00.260 You're in control of how it works for your home, not the other way around.

00:47:03.680 And if you want a professional to monitor, they have that as well.

00:47:07.000 People ready to respond with something triggers an alert.

00:47:11.200 If you don't, you can still use the system on your terms.

00:47:18.400 If you don't want somebody breaking into your house, you don't want stuff hanging over your head, no mystery fees, sneaking in later, this is the way to do it.

00:47:28.100 Feel safe in your own home again.

00:47:29.380 It shouldn't be complicated.

00:47:30.120 Protect yourself, enjoy 50% off a new SimpliSafe system with professional monitoring at SimpliSafe.com slash Beck.

00:47:36.840 SimpliSafe.com slash Beck.

00:47:38.580 There is no safe like SimpliSafe.

00:47:43.440 All right, let me tell you where we started.

00:47:48.380 There's a reason why this show is different than other podcasts, because other podcasts are usually not done live at the same time every day.

00:47:57.940 We begin recording this podcast and doing it live on radio at 9 a.m. Eastern time, 6 a.m. Pacific time.

00:48:07.460 And when you're doing something live, things change during the show.

00:48:15.100 And I got in this morning, and there are like several things that have changed overnight.

00:48:20.080 The biggest thing that has changed overnight, I think, is the information coming out of the government for El Paso.

00:48:28.680 Federal government drew a 10-mile circle over a major American border city and said nothing flies below 18,000 feet.

00:48:37.580 So your private jets, your bigger jets, everything like that are going to fly above 18,000 feet, but nothing is going to land.

00:48:51.740 So you have any idea?

00:48:54.560 Temporary flight restrictions happen all the time.

00:48:57.140 The president travels, they shut down the airspace.

00:48:59.520 There is a wildfire, they shut down the airspace.

00:49:04.440 There is a hurricane, they shut down the airspace.

00:49:06.580 But that usually happens for a very limited period of time.

00:49:12.600 I mean, we're talking hours, maybe in a natural disaster a day or so.

00:49:17.640 But 10 days?

00:49:19.960 10 days, so you have any idea?

00:49:22.360 We look back in history, and the only time we can see this happen was when it was happening nationwide, and it was 9-11.

00:49:32.040 There is no other time in American history where a, since World War II, that's as far as we went,

00:49:38.680 since World War II, there has not been a single city shutdown of an airport for security reasons for 10 days.

00:49:48.380 Never happened, okay?

00:49:49.760 That's all the government said this morning, special security reasons, that's it.

00:49:57.000 Okay.

00:49:58.920 That's a little disturbing.

00:50:00.620 What does that mean?

00:50:02.660 Now, an hour ago, the government came out and said,

00:50:07.820 Ricky, what did they say?

00:50:08.840 Can you give me the exact verbiage?

00:50:10.980 I will try to read this as quickly as I can.

00:50:14.460 Then they lifted it within the last hour, saying that everything was kosher.

00:50:20.440 That is not a direct quote.

00:50:22.020 I can give you a new direct quote, if you like, that just happened in the last 18 minutes.

00:50:26.260 Okay.

00:50:27.500 Trump official told Fox News that the lockdown came in response to Mexican cartel drones that breached U.S. airspace.

00:50:36.000 And here's a direct quote, Mexican cartel drones breached it.

00:50:41.420 The Department of War took action to disable the drones.

00:50:44.920 The FAA and DOW have determined there is no threat to commercial travel now.

00:50:48.600 So what does took action to disable drones mean?

00:50:51.640 We took them out.

00:50:52.840 Okay.

00:50:53.020 And this was, my guess is, I mean, let me bring Jason in, because Jason, you're a military guy.

00:51:02.480 You focus on military intelligence.

00:51:05.840 And so I don't want to go too far out on a limb.

00:51:08.940 But when I heard this, the thing that is important here is that El Paso is not just any city in Texas or America.

00:51:17.620 It is sitting right at the most significant border crossing in the hemisphere.

00:51:23.500 Okay.

00:51:23.740 It is also near Fort Bliss.

00:51:26.120 Fort Bliss is a million acres for the army.

00:51:30.740 And what's really important about Fort Bliss is it is the rapid deployment for joint mobilization force.

00:51:39.820 So when you're moving tanks or anything for the army, you have to move a lot of stuff.

00:51:46.220 It's all happening with Fort Bliss.

00:51:49.160 Okay.

00:51:49.580 It also facilitates all joint tasks.

00:51:53.800 There's one other thing about this area.

00:51:58.440 We have talked about this for years.

00:52:01.940 The IRGC, the Iraqi Republican Guard, the terrorist organization, they have been in Venezuela and in Mexico working with drug cartels, mainly with their proxy, Hezbollah.

00:52:21.280 We have the crown prince of Iran on here in about an hour and 15 minutes.

00:52:29.800 And you will hear from the crown prince what he is expecting to happen in the negotiations.

00:52:36.980 And I will tell you my opinion as well on what I think is going to happen on the negotiations.

00:52:42.660 This is President Trump just making sure that the world knows we tried everything we could to deal with them.

00:52:51.600 Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

00:52:54.340 My first thought was, is this the drug cartels along with any kind of help or, you know, anything from Hezbollah or, uh, Iran doing a counter on us.

00:53:11.240 Don't know, don't know, could have just been a mistake, but I'm glad the Trump administration is all over this today.

00:53:20.760 Watch, watch what happens in El Paso in the next couple of days.

00:53:25.060 Let's see if there's more news.

00:53:26.400 Jason comments on this.

00:53:28.320 Yeah, I think it's, it's all up.

00:53:30.100 Just all we're really left to do here is speculate because we were giving no information whatsoever.

00:53:35.620 So there's speculation on that.

00:53:37.700 The reason why that angle rings a little true to me is because Mexican cartels are not going to disrupt business in a way of, you know, provoking a U.S. military response on the largest, most pivotal corridor for them.

00:53:54.820 It's not good business.

00:53:56.320 It makes no sense at all.

00:53:57.620 So to me, and I'll give you another counter to this, but to me, it makes more sense if you put a 10 day restriction on a timeline that there's a very specific threat that they were, they got, you know, forward knowledge of, and they were trying to get ready for it and get out in front of it. 0.99

00:54:13.640 Now, all of that, the counter argument, all of that blows up when you consider the moron card. 0.96

00:54:18.520 There is always a moron card and someone could have just, instead of saying we're responding to something, you know, in the immediate, you know, in the immediate, uh, but instead of saying that they threw on the 10 day restriction for some random moronic reason. 0.99

00:54:36.940 So it's all possible. 0.99

00:54:38.400 Someone's just, I can't, I mean, how does that possibly happen, Jason?

00:54:43.040 I mean, you don't close that.

00:54:45.340 I mean, that hasn't ever happened except for nine 11 that has never happened.

00:54:50.340 So who would have the authority on their own just to go, I got closed airspace for 10 days.

00:54:56.000 I mean, I mean, wait, where's Tim walls?

00:55:00.180 Where's who, who would do, who would have the authority to do that?

00:55:08.420 Um, yes, I, I would, I would say probably somebody in the FBI.

00:55:12.280 Uh, or, or DOJ, something like that, that would transmit that to the FAA, or there could have been the moron card somewhere within the FAA that just clicked the wrong button.

00:55:21.340 I don't know. 0.88

00:55:21.920 It doesn't make any sense.

00:55:23.280 We're trying to make sense of it, but to me, it's a very specific threat, whether that's asymmetrical warfare they're getting ahead of before regarding Iran or whatever, or I, to me, they're just random cartel drones make zero sense.

00:55:37.740 Because why provoke and screw up your business over a commercial drone to scout a route?

00:55:43.780 It makes no sense whatsoever.

00:55:45.820 So I don't think the full story has been told and I don't know if we will get the full story, but we'll definitely be watching it.

00:55:50.980 We have to start getting full, we have to get full stories.

00:55:53.920 We have to, we can't, we cannot operate in this secrecy anymore.

00:55:58.280 I want it secret for national defense, whatever, but at some point we have to know what's going on in our country.

00:56:06.360 Um, because we, we just do, you can't use, there's not enough trust in the country, um, to just operate like this.

00:56:14.880 And luckily I think on the, the side of conservatives, we still do, we gained our trust back for the military.

00:56:24.220 Hegseth has come in and set the military back on track.

00:56:27.280 And so we, we've regained our trust, uh, to some degree with the military, but we, it's not blind trust.

00:56:33.880 The good news is there's no national guard being deployed.

00:56:38.420 There's no evacuation.

00:56:40.240 There's no sirens.

00:56:41.120 There's nothing.

00:56:41.580 It happened at four o'clock in the morning. 0.99

00:56:43.880 Don't know why could be an idiot card, uh, that somebody pulled the trigger too soon or too hard and, you know, closed it down for 10 days. 0.99

00:56:53.140 But this one is, uh, puzzling to say the least. 0.99

00:57:01.420 Jason, do you think, can I go down a conspiracy road with you?

00:57:05.240 That's my best road to go down.

00:57:07.440 I know we have been trying to get the crown prince.

00:57:10.420 Ricky, I'd like you to try to chime in on this too.

00:57:12.440 We've been trying to get the crown crown prince for weeks, weeks.

00:57:16.340 Um, today is the day that everybody's meeting and Benjamin Netanyahu comes to the white house tomorrow.

00:57:24.920 Uh, and we're, we're going to be finding out if we could do a deal or not.

00:57:29.080 I personally don't think we're doing a deal.

00:57:32.340 I mean, I can't imagine the deal that we could get that the president would go, okay, that was worth them slaughtering 37,000 people and us just going, okay, I can't imagine that.

00:57:43.400 Um, I think this is just to, um, tell the whole world we've done everything we could.

00:57:50.620 We tried, we exhausted every Avenue, um, because we also cannot be responsible for the downfall of Iran that has to be with the people, but we can support them and show them that, you know, we have an armada off the shore.

00:58:04.440 Um, is it a coincidence all these things are happening and then we get the crown prince of Iran this week?

00:58:12.980 Do you want me to put my stew hat on or Ricky conspiracy theorist?

00:58:17.920 So, so, so stew, I know what stew would say, get over it.

00:58:22.060 Of course not.

00:58:23.500 Okay.

00:58:23.860 And he might be right.

00:58:24.860 And he might be right.

00:58:25.860 I think it's interesting that one of the highest profile Iranian dissidents and critics of the current regime.

00:58:33.780 who is, whose family is targeted for death.

00:58:38.600 I'm sure by the regime tells you at the end of the interview, which is coming up soon.

00:58:44.980 We taped this yesterday.

00:58:46.280 You'll hear it shortly that he was grateful to you for changing all of your social media avatars to the original Iranian flag that existed before the regime came in is the second Iranian dissident

00:59:01.540 that you've had on this program that called that out and said that people on the ground in Iran have noticed that you did that and they appreciate your show of support.

00:59:11.700 What I didn't appreciate about that is that he basically just told the regime, you're standing with the Iranian people and you just put a target on your back.

00:59:19.060 Let them, let them, let them, uh, you know, right is right.

00:59:23.780 Um, it was a little shocking.

00:59:26.340 It was a little shocking that the way he handled me, it was like, oh my gosh, how do you, is you remember, you remember when we were getting people out of Afghanistan?

00:59:35.080 And I think I've told this on here, I hope I have, um, but, uh, we, the state department was putting up all these roadblocks.

00:59:43.760 So we had to get people out through Pakistan.

00:59:47.280 No other country would let us go through.

00:59:49.660 Well, the prime minister of Pakistan at the time was about to be overthrown and he wanted friends in Washington.

00:59:55.040 And so our group contacted him and said, Hey, can you help us get these people out?

01:00:00.260 Can you get these American people out? 1.00

01:00:01.580 And he said, I get a call like an hour later, Glenn, he said he would do it, but only if he could talk to you.

01:00:10.620 And I'm like, how does he even know who I, what?

01:00:15.240 So we talked to him and he just wanted assurance that I would remind people in Washington that he was, you know, he had helped us on some things because he knew his time was limited.

01:00:26.040 Um, uh, it's weird how, I mean, I just, I just showed you last week our, our, uh, insiders for torch.

01:00:39.140 We had 36 nations, people in 36 nations that were listening to us around the world today.

01:00:47.100 I just counted the United nations has 193 nations in the United nations right now.

01:00:54.640 As of week number two with the torch, we have people in 142 nations listening to the show right now.

01:01:04.840 That's nuts.

01:01:06.140 I love it.

01:01:07.760 And it makes me very nervous because I looked at some of those nations and they are, you know, sometimes designated as not being allies of the U.S.

01:01:16.540 What a nice way of saying that.

01:01:20.980 Yeah.

01:01:21.620 Okay.

01:01:22.100 Crown Prince is going to be, uh, with us.

01:01:23.800 You're going to hear this interview, uh, coming up in, uh, just over an hour from now.

01:01:28.360 This is one you don't want to miss.

01:01:30.240 Cause I, I'm a fan, but I'm, but I'm also, I also had to tell him, you know, are you the guy?

01:01:37.380 Cause there's a lot of people on the ground that say you're not the guy.

01:01:40.680 Um, and we talk about everything.

01:01:43.940 You don't want to miss that.

01:01:55.240 All right.

01:01:55.580 Let me tell you about a pre-born, our sponsor.

01:01:57.900 There are moments in life where a single conversation can change everything.

01:02:02.820 You ever had a conversation like that?

01:02:04.800 One conversation that changed your life. 0.97

01:02:07.320 I have, I thought I was a big fat dummy.

01:02:10.540 And as it turns out, I am, but I was in school. 0.68

01:02:13.920 I had gone back to school when I was 30 and the professor after, cause I was really, I would

01:02:18.900 question him on everything.

01:02:20.300 And, uh, the professor said, can I see you after class?

01:02:23.380 So I went after class and sat with him and he took me into this, you know, like, you

01:02:29.040 know, Harry Potter lunchroom for the professors and I'm having lunch.

01:02:32.540 He says, why are you here? 0.94

01:02:33.180 And I said, I just realized I'm a big fat dummy. 0.90

01:02:34.980 I don't know anything myself. 0.54

01:02:36.720 And, uh, and he said, what are you reading?

01:02:39.220 And he said, who's guiding you through that?

01:02:40.820 And I said, me.

01:02:41.400 And he's like, nobody does that.

01:02:42.940 What are you looking for?

01:02:45.340 And I said, you know, I told him we talked and he could sense that I just didn't have

01:02:49.220 any self-confidence in myself.

01:02:51.240 And he reached across the table and he touched my hand and he said, you realize you belong

01:02:55.960 here, that you're smart enough to be here.

01:02:58.160 And I kind of hemmed and hawed.

01:02:59.640 And he said, listen to me, you're smart enough to be here.

01:03:02.340 That changed my life.

01:03:04.080 One conversation changed my life.

01:03:07.840 Life, life, lives can be rescued and changed with one action.

01:03:13.440 When it comes to abortion, that one action is a conversation that happens at a pre-born

01:03:20.740 clinic where they say, let's give you a free ultrasound. 1.00

01:03:23.920 That one action changes all the dynamics and most women choose life after seeing an ultrasound 1.00

01:03:31.540 and that changes their life in a positive way.

01:03:35.220 One ultrasound is $28.

01:03:37.340 Do you have $28 you'd be willing to give to save the life of a mom and a baby?

01:03:56.500 10 seconds.

01:03:57.080 Station ID.

01:03:57.480 So, there's a 250-page report out on the election oversight in Fulton County, Georgia.

01:04:21.620 Have you read this yet?

01:04:22.480 It is.

01:04:23.220 It's unbelievable.

01:04:24.780 It's absolutely unbelievable what it says.

01:04:27.480 I got to get into that.

01:04:28.660 Also, Savannah Guthrie.

01:04:33.520 I have no idea what's happening there.

01:04:35.420 Something just feels really off.

01:04:38.020 But I don't know what it is.

01:04:40.960 I saw these, you know, the picture of the guy at the front door.

01:04:45.940 And they're like, look at that face.

01:04:47.560 You're not going to be able to forget those eyes.

01:04:49.220 What eyes?

01:04:50.000 They were all blown out and distorted.

01:04:51.640 And I couldn't, I mean, I didn't see anything.

01:04:53.300 Um, but they're hoping that somebody will see something and recognize this person.

01:05:00.120 Um, I, I pray that her mother is still alive.

01:05:05.380 But I, I saw, um, Megan Kelly, she was talking to, I think, Ashley Banfield.

01:05:11.420 And they were saying, um, have you noticed the way that, um, uh, that Savannah and her family were talking to the kidnappers?

01:05:22.820 It sounded just like what they were saying in, uh, silence of the lambs.

01:05:29.180 And yeah, but I don't know what that is supposed to mean.

01:05:35.400 Um, because the reason why that sounds just like silence of the lambs is because that's what the FBI tells you to do.

01:05:44.520 So they, they, they, they have studied this for a very, very long time.

01:05:50.040 And there's a certain pattern that you have to follow.

01:05:53.560 If you are, if you have somebody who has been kidnapped, well, I'm reading this pattern and I'm thinking about how the FBI has studied these psychos and everything else.

01:06:03.960 And, and I realized, wait a minute, why aren't we applying this to other things other than a hostage crisis?

01:06:13.660 I want to take you through that thought experience here in just a second.

01:06:17.520 Stand by.

01:06:29.260 You know, most dog food is designed for a long, long shelf life.

01:06:32.980 Would you feed your kids something that was designed to sit on a shelf for up to two years without going bad?

01:06:41.300 Um, I wouldn't, cause I think that would be ring dings and ding dongs that they would, I'd be feeding them all the time.

01:06:49.880 Not good.

01:06:50.740 Okay.

01:06:53.000 Processed chemicals, everything in it that is not good.

01:06:55.900 And nothing is, nothing is alive in it.

01:06:58.360 That's for sure.

01:06:59.940 Rough greens is not a dog food.

01:07:02.100 It's a supplement that you add to the food.

01:07:03.980 You're already giving it to your dog.

01:07:05.240 Because if you're, if your kibble is meant to stay on the shelf for up to two years and federal government mandates that you're not giving them the stuff that they need.

01:07:15.020 Okay.

01:07:15.700 You can still feed them the food because it's got all the calories in it and everything else to power their life, but it doesn't have any of the nutritional stuff.

01:07:22.520 This is a way for you to put that nutrition back into your dog's food.

01:07:26.940 You'll see the difference almost immediately.

01:07:29.420 At least I did with Uno.

01:08:18.700 This is something we are looking for singers to be able to do live.

01:08:33.100 I can hire great singers, obviously.

01:08:35.940 Listen, I'm going to hire great singers to sing it.

01:08:38.400 Um, this is an original song, um, that was written just for this event on May 2nd at Ellis Island.

01:08:45.620 But I, you know, part of the torch, my mission is to empower you and to give you, um, confidence to be who you want to be, who you were born to be.

01:08:57.320 And, uh, I want to give some singers.

01:09:00.880 I've got three positions, some singers, uh, to perform that song and another song.

01:09:06.960 Uh, so if you are a great singer and no one share this information, please do not send us things that say, Hey, you should contact this person.

01:09:14.260 No, no, no.

01:09:15.480 Um, this is system of merit.

01:09:17.100 You have to complete it.

01:09:18.720 You have to do it.

01:09:19.600 If you're the singer and you want the opportunity, then follow the directions, glenbeck.com slash contest, follow the directions.

01:09:26.240 And we're going to start judging here, uh, soon and you get all kinds of training and everything else.

01:09:32.320 So you don't have to be a professional singer.

01:09:33.860 You just have to be able to do it.

01:09:36.860 Um, and, uh, and we want to find you.

01:09:39.360 So go to glenbeck.com slash contest.

01:09:42.640 Um, if you look at what's happening here, um, we have so many things.

01:09:46.620 We have the weird closing and then opening of El Paso today, a major warning from a major player on AI.

01:09:55.780 Uh, we have the 250 page report about, uh, Fulton County and how insecure, uh, our, our voting actually is.

01:10:07.460 We have net Benjamin Netanyahu in town.

01:10:09.820 Uh, I have the crown prince from Iran on in just about an hour from now.

01:10:14.660 Uh, we have massive fraud allegations, including a new fraud allegation coming out of Maryland where George Soros and his allies funding politicians, wives, and their quote unquote NGO.

01:10:29.260 Uh, and it's also fraud on the taxpayers as well.

01:10:33.560 Um, I mean, we, we have Cuba on the edge of collapse that everything is up in the air.

01:10:40.880 Everything is changing.

01:10:43.280 My job is to help you make sense of it.

01:10:46.400 Uh, so you can see the big picture.

01:10:48.800 My job is to take all these little pictures and, and try to give you a way to look at the whole world.

01:10:54.960 What is coming and how do you deal with all of this?

01:10:58.760 So let me strangely start with Savannah Guthrie.

01:11:02.300 Uh, let's go to cut 10, please.

01:11:04.180 This is her speaking to the kidnappers.

01:11:06.540 We received your message and we understand.

01:11:11.360 We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her.

01:11:17.540 This is the only way we will have peace.

01:11:21.120 This is very valuable to us and we will pay.

01:11:25.000 So notice what she said.

01:11:31.720 There's no insults.

01:11:33.640 There's no grandstanding.

01:11:34.680 There's no virtual virtue signaling.

01:11:36.960 It's just this.

01:11:39.400 We really, we want our mother and our grandmother back.

01:11:43.020 Please let her go.

01:11:45.620 Um, it's the only way we can have closure.

01:11:48.300 We, she's appealing to the humanity of these hostage takers.

01:11:55.040 This is nuts.

01:11:57.300 Why does that work?

01:11:58.860 There's very specific things.

01:12:00.540 The FBI has you do.

01:12:01.920 You have to humanize the hostage.

01:12:04.180 That's why I said, please return our mother. 0.76

01:12:07.100 Avoid any ego threats, reduce all escalation, um, signal willingness to engage.

01:12:15.420 This is very valuable to us and we will pay and then create some sort of bridge back to,

01:12:22.120 you know, reason.

01:12:24.020 Okay.

01:12:24.640 You don't scream at the captor.

01:12:26.300 You don't shame them publicly.

01:12:28.260 You don't, you don't say you're evil, but beyond redemption, you don't do any of those things.

01:12:32.940 Why?

01:12:34.340 Because humiliation cornered is volatility unleashed.

01:12:41.220 And the goal of this is not a catharsis.

01:12:46.380 It's, it's not to win.

01:12:48.100 It's not to feel superior.

01:12:49.720 It's not to shame them.

01:12:51.060 It's not to tell them how bad they are.

01:12:52.660 The goal is the safe return of the hostage.

01:12:56.000 I am, believe it or not, leading someplace with all of this.

01:12:58.920 So as I'm, as I'm doing my research on, you know, how do you speak to a hostage?

01:13:06.760 You don't want to live my life.

01:13:07.860 Believe me.

01:13:08.620 Um, this, this series of things that have been studied for a long time.

01:13:17.520 Um, it is, these are the, that's the only way back, the only road back from the brink.

01:13:23.840 If you're in this situation, but if I put her in any other situation and I said, humanize 0.71

01:13:32.140 them, avoid ego threats, reduce escalation, any other situation you would say, that's what

01:13:38.180 I'm not doing that.

01:13:38.960 That's weak.

01:13:41.260 Are you kidding me?

01:13:42.320 These guys are hostage takers. 1.00

01:13:44.160 They're monsters. 0.99

01:13:44.860 There's no reasoning with them, a bridge to these guys. 0.99

01:13:50.180 That's naive.

01:13:51.820 Okay.

01:13:54.320 I think we all agree.

01:13:55.660 Kidnappers are really bad.

01:13:58.000 Okay.

01:13:59.260 Really bad.

01:14:01.480 When somebody straps a bomb to their own cause, when they take a life hostage, that's about

01:14:08.360 as far gone as it gets yet.

01:14:10.580 That negotiators who are trying to reach a goal, still lower their voice.

01:14:15.260 They still leave the door open.

01:14:17.280 They still search for leverage that changes the behavior rather than satisfying your, your

01:14:22.360 emotions.

01:14:23.060 Okay.

01:14:25.000 Nobody is saying, Hey, talk to them this way because you don't understand them.

01:14:29.480 No, no one's saying surrender.

01:14:31.740 What this is, it's all about tactics.

01:14:37.140 Do you want to feel good for the moment and tell them off?

01:14:41.120 Can you imagine what she really wants to say to these people?

01:14:44.940 Do you really want that moment of satisfaction where you've just said it all to these people?

01:14:50.140 Or do you want to accomplish the goal and save the hostage?

01:14:57.640 Here's where I'm going.

01:14:59.560 Look at everything that is happening in our life.

01:15:02.280 I feel as though our freedoms, our institutions, our country is being held hostage by dangerous

01:15:12.340 ideologies and dangerous actors.

01:15:15.240 Okay.

01:15:15.660 And that feeling is as visceral in me as I think it is for you.

01:15:19.920 And the anger in me on this is so real.

01:15:23.160 I have a hard time tapping it down sometimes because I get so angry at these people.

01:15:29.500 I got to believe in some way like Savannah feels and her family feels.

01:15:35.780 Can you imagine your mother being taken?

01:15:38.460 Why would you do that?

01:15:39.800 What is wrong with you?

01:15:41.160 All of the emotions she's feeling.

01:15:42.920 But if the objective is preservation, not applause, then the tactics matter.

01:15:52.300 So I heard this and I started looking into it and I thought, wow, why don't wait?

01:15:57.280 Why do these tactics work with hostage takers?

01:16:03.340 But then we just leave it at that.

01:16:07.060 Look what Donald Trump is doing right now in Minnesota.

01:16:10.280 Did you see?

01:16:11.200 We are now, we're cleaning house in Minnesota.

01:16:14.540 We're cleaning house in Minnesota.

01:16:15.960 We're getting the things we wanted done, done.

01:16:18.860 And they're tracking anybody who's following ICE.

01:16:23.400 They're tracking them.

01:16:24.460 It's all out in the open.

01:16:26.800 When political leaders de-escalate in a moment of tension or like Trump's administration is doing today, sitting at a negotiating table with people like Iran.

01:16:39.460 How do you do that?

01:16:41.120 You can't believe anything they say.

01:16:43.280 You actually trust them?

01:16:44.920 I mean, you want them to survive?

01:16:48.480 No.

01:16:49.160 None of that is the point.

01:16:51.140 None of that is the point.

01:16:52.520 The point is conversation to getting to conversion.

01:17:00.080 A behavior change is the point.

01:17:03.200 Or the ability to keep them talking until you got them and you're going in and you're taking them out.

01:17:10.200 Believe me, nobody is saying to Savannah and her family, just talk nice to these people because you don't understand them.

01:17:16.780 You don't blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:17:18.820 They're like, just keep them talking until we can figure out who they are and we're going to put them in jail for the rest of their lives.

01:17:25.840 Okay?

01:17:26.060 Sometimes the goal of negotiation is not friendship.

01:17:30.680 It's clarity.

01:17:32.520 It's to demonstrate to your citizens and to the world that every peaceful avenue has been exhausted before harder measures were considered.

01:17:42.240 That's not weakness.

01:17:43.960 This is strategic positioning.

01:17:46.100 When it comes to those who have taken our hostage and our institutions hostage, MLK got it.

01:17:58.600 He never confused moral clarity with humiliation.

01:18:02.840 He confronted the injustice, but he didn't seek annihilation.

01:18:08.840 You know, I was talking to the Crown Prince and you'll hear this.

01:18:11.380 I spoke to him yesterday.

01:18:12.420 We recorded it yesterday after the show.

01:18:15.160 And so you'll hear it in a minute.

01:18:16.260 And I said, how are you going to work?

01:18:18.740 You're going to work with the IRGC, the people who just rounded up 37,000 people.

01:18:22.820 How are you going to do that?

01:18:23.860 And he said, no, no, no.

01:18:25.000 I'm going to be very, very careful.

01:18:26.500 I am reaching out to them now and saying, sign up.

01:18:29.300 If you want to pledge that you're not going to be a part of this, that you will not turn against the people of Iran, that you will change sides, you contact us and we'll keep your name on file.

01:18:39.680 But if your name is not on file, if we have it to sort out, it's not going to go well for you.

01:18:46.060 But as he said, you have to have room for return.

01:18:53.800 You have to.

01:18:56.160 Otherwise, you don't survive in any of this.

01:18:59.160 If every political action violates the principles of de-escalation, if every speech increases humiliation, think of what Donald Trump, I'm sorry, what, what Joe Biden has said about us in presidential official speeches where he was, you know, they're worse than the Nazis.

01:19:20.460 All of these, all of these things, that was, that is not the way you negotiate with people.

01:19:27.140 It's not.

01:19:29.000 You're not going to persuade anybody.

01:19:31.980 And if you're using language like that, then the goal cannot be reconciliation.

01:19:37.600 It can't be.

01:19:39.120 It can't be that you want to solve this hostage crisis because you're violating everything that we all know works.

01:19:50.460 So your goal must be isolation and division and destruction because you don't retrieve a hostage by convincing yourself the captor is irredeemable and telling them that you, you retrieve a hostage by creating a path very, very narrow for different behavior.

01:20:11.360 You're appealing to their humanity.

01:20:13.720 The end goal is stability without surrender, strength without escalation, preservation without that permanent fracture.

01:20:28.280 You've got to come back.

01:20:31.780 It has to survive permanent disagreement.

01:20:35.700 Has to.

01:20:36.660 So the question is not whether we fight against these things.

01:20:40.860 The question is, are we fighting in a way that will actually be effective, that leaves a path back?

01:20:49.480 Because if there is no path back, then we're not negotiating for a hostage.

01:20:54.420 We're negotiating for applause.

01:20:58.740 And applause has never restored a divided republic.

01:21:02.940 I want the hostage back.

01:21:08.540 Justice will be served in the end.

01:21:11.300 But we have to start behaving in such a way that Savannah Guthrie just behaved when she was speaking directly to the hostage takers. 0.80

01:21:24.920 Appeal to their humanity.

01:21:26.740 Don't cause more harm to push them and anger them even more.

01:21:35.400 But know that justice in the end, justice will be served.

01:21:41.300 But applause and playing to a crowd or just making yourself feel better is actually plays into those who want division and destruction.

01:21:53.320 It plays right into their hands.

01:21:54.880 All right.

01:21:55.120 More in just a second.

01:21:56.740 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

01:21:59.500 You ever get that weird feeling that you're paying for something and somehow you're paying again without knowing it?

01:22:05.640 I mean, you hand your money over every single month to a service that basically you just handed it over to people who you just assume that it stays in the lane of providing the service.

01:22:18.320 But more often, the big mobile companies, your bill doesn't cover talk and text and data part of that money ends up funding causes and organizations that don't line up at all with your values.

01:22:31.420 And most people never think to ask, where does it go?

01:22:34.100 Well, Patriot Mobile was built as an alternative to that whole model.

01:22:38.560 Same nationwide coverage that you're used to.

01:22:41.280 Competitive pricing.

01:22:42.760 Customer service based right here in the U.S.

01:22:45.300 With a completely different philosophy about what your dollars should support.

01:22:48.760 And switching your phone service isn't just a tech decision.

01:22:52.100 It's a chance to make sure somebody, something that you already pay for every month is actually working in a direction that you believe in.

01:23:13.400 You're going to have to hold that thought, my friend.

01:23:16.320 We got a schedule to keep.

01:23:18.420 Beck.

01:23:19.480 We'll be back.

01:23:28.960 So we just found out that Glenn Beck.com is under a DDoS attack today.

01:23:48.980 Those are not random.

01:23:50.320 That is somebody that selects something to disrupt.

01:23:54.980 And they are trying to disrupt our service.

01:23:57.320 They've, they've done a lot, uh, to, uh, torch today.

01:24:01.520 Um, we appreciate the patience of everybody who has subscribed to the torch.

01:24:05.900 Just want you to know it is under attack.

01:24:08.500 Uh, our cybersecurity people are on it.

01:24:11.660 Um, I, I don't, I don't know what the motive would be other than to, I mean, hurt us financially, hurt us with credibility. 0.91

01:24:22.020 But I, I mean, uh, I just think with the world in flames as it is specifically today, uh, I mean, I'm just speaking right out of my butt. 0.69

01:24:34.020 I could be completely wrong on this.

01:24:35.920 It just might be somebody who just wants to hurt us, you know, in credibility or whatever.

01:24:40.760 Um, uh, but the crown prince of Iran is going to be on in about half an hour.

01:24:46.680 Uh, and as you will hear, I think, well, you may not hear it in this interview.

01:24:52.320 You'll probably hear it in the whole interview at glimbeck.com.

01:24:55.220 Um, but, uh, it is interesting to me that he twice recognized the influence that we had with the people in Iran.

01:25:05.900 And he's not the only dissident that has done that, um, between this and possibly what's happening in El Paso, the negotiations going on today,

01:25:17.300 Benjamin Netanyahu coming into town tomorrow, uh, the armada off the coast of Iran.

01:25:23.820 We might expect to see more of this in the future.

01:25:30.540 I've been consistent over the years on some really important topics because they're important to maintain our freedoms.

01:25:35.440 One is preparedness and another is self-education.

01:25:39.100 Not too hard.

01:25:39.940 Prepare and do your own homework.

01:25:41.380 But right now there's a lot of information going around about ivermectin.

01:25:44.600 The good people at Jace Medical have educated me so I can save you some research time.

01:25:49.060 Here are a few straight facts.

01:25:50.820 Ivermectin is not experimental.

01:25:53.560 It's not fringe.

01:25:58.660 It is also has ongoing research studies for further applications that are showing some great promise.

01:26:03.920 Another fact.

01:26:04.520 You can get it in multiple different forms from Jace Medical.

01:26:07.920 It can be topical, compounded by itself as an add-on to other Jace products and more.

01:29:10.380 I'm going to get to Jack Posobiec here in just a second.

01:29:12.820 First, we must be doing something very right because this hasn't happened to this show, I think, since I was on Fox.

01:29:24.480 And we do not think this is a domestic DDoS attack.

01:29:31.500 We're getting 180,000 authentication requests about every 50 seconds.

01:29:39.100 Our people, and I said, who's doing it?

01:29:43.220 They all said the same thing, Iran.

01:29:45.820 I don't know if it is Iran, but we have the crown prince on here in about half an hour.

01:29:51.620 Everything is falling into line with Iran this week. 0.98

01:29:56.960 I just, we must be doing something wrong.

01:30:01.800 Right.

01:30:02.600 Because that's when you're attacked.

01:30:05.840 Thank you if you are a Torch subscriber.

01:30:08.540 Thank you for putting up with this today.

01:30:10.300 Um, we'll fix it and we will, uh, do everything we can to make sure that it doesn't happen again.

01:30:18.620 But, uh, it's a pretty nasty, pretty nasty.

01:30:23.240 If you haven't subscribed to the Torch yet, please do.

01:30:25.860 Glenn Beck.com slash Torch.

01:30:27.740 Glenn Beck.com slash Torch.

01:30:29.520 Again, I wear it as a badge of honor.

01:30:32.280 Must be doing something right.

01:30:34.420 Uh, okay.

01:30:36.920 Let me go to Jack Posobiec, who is a Turning Point USA contributor, host of Human Events Daily.

01:30:43.840 Uh, I think, and Jack, correct me if I'm wrong.

01:30:47.420 I'm sure you're not going to take all the credit, but I would say that you were the guy who said,

01:30:52.740 we should do a halftime show.

01:30:55.260 We should do it ourselves.

01:30:56.700 I'm sure there were other people, uh, involved in that, but good job, Jack.

01:31:01.040 Good job.

01:31:01.580 Well, Glenn, thank, thank you so much for that.

01:31:05.120 And, and all of your, uh, praise, uh, you know, in the past couple of days and your support for it,

01:31:09.800 going into it, I may have been the guy who said we should go ahead and do this and, you know,

01:31:15.800 kind of got the ball rolling, but, but ultimately I would say the inspiration for the Super Bowl

01:31:21.900 halftime show was Charlie himself because Charlie was always for years, even back before

01:31:28.860 Turning Point really got off the ground and we were pulling up old tweets and just remembering

01:31:33.280 old conversations that we had had where he was constantly going on.

01:31:36.860 He said this, the way they were doing the halftime show that, you know, at the Super Bowl is becoming

01:31:40.980 so just a, a scene of debauchery.

01:31:44.200 He said, it's not family friendly.

01:31:45.720 And then more and more increasingly, it was not putting America at the center, our virtues

01:31:52.740 and our values at the center.

01:31:54.080 And we found a clip actually, cause we would talk about this off air all the time and we

01:31:57.640 found a clip and I'm sure there's more, but the one that we found was from a couple of

01:32:01.100 years back where he was saying the, the halftime show should be the virtues that you want to

01:32:06.520 extol throughout the nation, because this is the pinnacle of, of a cultural event that

01:32:12.940 you know, is going to have the most eyeballs year on year. 0.85

01:32:16.860 And they know that it's, it's, you know that.

01:32:19.500 Yep.

01:32:19.940 And it's not just, um, America.

01:32:23.360 I mean, this is the biggest calling card every year in the world.

01:32:27.580 People watch it all over the world.

01:32:30.040 And I got to believe if I was an enemy of the United States and I watched that, I thought

01:32:34.440 these people are about to implode when you don't have a word of English spoken during

01:32:40.640 the halftime of Superbowl that tells you something.

01:32:44.040 And it seemed to me almost to be like a hostile takeover.

01:32:49.720 Well, and you look at it too, it's, it's the division it's, it's globalism is what it

01:32:54.280 is.

01:32:54.620 Globalism is just the obvious word for it.

01:32:56.720 And you're going back to a word that we used before where, where they want to go global

01:33:01.360 because this is what the NFL wants.

01:33:02.660 The NFL wants to compete with the world cup.

01:33:05.540 They want to compete on the global stage.

01:33:07.660 Everyone knows the world cup.

01:33:08.900 That's the big one.

01:33:09.900 And, and predominantly when you're talking about a Hispanic audience, Spanish speaking

01:33:13.920 audience, they don't watch American football as much.

01:33:17.000 They watch the world cup.

01:33:18.200 They watch soccer because that's their culture by the way.

01:33:20.980 And, and what they're trying to do from a monetary perspective, from a fiscal perspective,

01:33:25.400 which by the way, from, you know, from a pure capitalist perspective, I don't have a problem

01:33:29.600 with trying to expand your audience, but don't do so by denying, dividing, and canceling the

01:33:37.180 core of what you, we were built on in the first place.

01:33:41.860 NFL is middle America.

01:33:44.400 This is Hank, Hank Williams, Jr.

01:33:46.160 Remember he got canceled.

01:33:47.080 And Hank Williams, Jr.

01:33:49.000 Used to be the opening song, the iconic song.

01:33:51.560 Are you ready for some football on Monday night?

01:33:54.240 That was what built the NFL.

01:33:56.780 And we saw NASCAR do this when they went woke to try in search of a broader audience.

01:34:01.460 We're now starting to see the NFL and not, I'm not starting to see, we've seen the NFL

01:34:05.320 do this for years.

01:34:06.620 And that's just all of this is what drove me to say, we have to do it.

01:34:13.360 This is the time.

01:34:15.920 I have to tell you, uh, Hank found out just side note, Hank found out about him being canceled

01:34:21.820 on Monday night football, listening to this program.

01:34:24.840 And he told me about a year later and he picked up the NFL guitar, you know, the one that he

01:34:30.580 had, and he just smashed it to death.

01:34:34.360 Um, and he, I think he had like five or 10 of them and he smashed all of them in this

01:34:40.560 rage while he was listening.

01:34:41.760 He picked up the last one and he was about to smash and he went, no, this one goes to

01:34:47.020 Glenn Beck about a year later.

01:34:48.640 He gave me the only Monday night football guitar that's, that's left.

01:34:53.260 He saved for me.

01:34:54.400 It's crazy.

01:34:55.120 Anyway, he said, cut it all off.

01:34:58.860 No, he, all of it, all of it.

01:35:01.520 He was so angry.

01:35:02.940 Um, so I don't know if you saw my monologue yesterday.

01:35:07.880 I talked about how this was a brilliant, we all saw that.

01:35:12.820 Okay, good. 0.99

01:35:13.400 We were all sharing that around because people are, people were saying that's a stupid move, 0.99

01:35:19.480 blah, blah, blah. 0.99

01:35:20.020 It didn't do anything.

01:35:20.800 Oh, it will.

01:35:22.160 I mean, you know, when you have 30 million people online within 24 hours watching it,

01:35:27.920 you've made a real impact and look out.

01:35:30.880 I have heard, and I don't know if it's true.

01:35:33.680 I've heard the NFL tried to get you guys not to do it.

01:35:38.180 Is that true?

01:35:38.880 So here's what I can say.

01:35:43.760 We say, I knew that this would be, and Kid Rock himself came up, Bob came out and said,

01:35:49.800 it's David and Goliath.

01:35:51.300 This is what he was referring to.

01:35:53.120 Because I knew that by picking a fight with the biggest cabal in America, bigger than

01:35:59.900 the Democrats, right?

01:36:00.980 We're talking Hollywood.

01:36:02.340 We're talking corporate America, the biggest sports event in the country.

01:36:07.940 The most money that goes into this thing, because it has the most cultural power, that we were

01:36:15.020 going to, that we were going up against the, we were going up against Goliath.

01:36:19.380 We were just literally going up against Goliath.

01:36:21.360 I had no idea what would happen.

01:36:24.420 I don't think we realized the ways that they can get you, the ways that they can gatekeep

01:36:30.760 you and block you.

01:36:32.240 Now, look, I'm not going to sit here and say that I, that, you know, I have an email

01:36:36.880 from Roger Goodell that says, you shall not do this, right?

01:36:39.740 Because they're, you know, they're clean.

01:36:41.060 They're a hundred, they're going to, they're going to do it clean, but everybody knows.

01:36:43.860 And this is the way that these elite events work is that it's a trickle down system, but

01:36:49.000 they, they're all connected through the sponsorships, the advertisers, the venues, the musicians,

01:36:55.100 the music rights, the labels, because we had, Glenn, we had times where artists would

01:37:00.960 tell us, love to do it, can't we?

01:37:02.600 Because when you start one of these things, of course, you cast a wide net, you say, okay,

01:37:05.420 who's available, you look into who's on tour, who's around.

01:37:08.460 We only had three months to be able to even do this.

01:37:11.360 So, and then when it comes to venues, oh, we'd love to do it.

01:37:14.060 We have availability, but then something would always happen, Glenn, somewhere along the

01:37:18.600 line in that conversation with, I want to say, a very large percentage of people we

01:37:22.760 talked to, suddenly it was, oh, you know, something came up and we just can't do it.

01:37:27.180 Or, oh, we just can't have it.

01:37:29.240 And then they play games with the rights to the songs as well, where the artists, because

01:37:34.840 the publishers and the licensors have the song.

01:37:38.920 This is, of course, people know publicly, this is what happened with X.

01:37:42.980 And I could talk about that too, is they would say, you know, you can have that artist, but

01:37:49.160 you can't, they can't play this song, this song, this song, and this song.

01:37:51.860 Or if you play it, you can't broadcast it on X, like all of these things, or there were

01:37:56.920 even, I'll just say, there were stuff that we wanted to do and that we had artists who

01:38:03.520 wanted to do that.

01:38:04.840 We were told at the last minute that you are not permitted to do that.

01:38:09.300 And this is something where we would have gotten, and they would have sued us tens of

01:38:15.920 millions in liabilities, where we had had permission from so many people that were close

01:38:22.740 to it, but somewhere back in the office, someone says, no, Turning Point USA with Posobiec and

01:38:29.180 Colvette and Charlie Kirk's family, no, no.

01:38:33.100 And there were, I'll even tell you, there were some emails that we got that were actually

01:38:36.140 not so pleasant too, about, you know, hey, we, you know, real sorry about what happened

01:38:42.280 to Charlie, but we don't want to do business with you.

01:38:44.620 The end.

01:38:45.920 We, we've got all of that.

01:38:47.680 I have to, and, and so can I say it was the NFL definitively?

01:38:51.540 Of course, right.

01:38:52.580 You know, of course we, we can't say that definitively, but we know what was going on

01:38:55.800 here.

01:38:57.100 So it's amazing.

01:38:58.200 If you hadn't, if I hadn't have lived through this, I would maybe have a hard time going,

01:39:02.920 well, you don't really know.

01:39:04.040 Now, trust me, what he's saying is absolutely right.

01:39:07.960 I mean, uh, you know, I, I had a deal with, I think it was either Warner brothers or Paramount,

01:39:12.700 a movie deal for the Christmas sweater, 2 million books, easy done.

01:39:18.080 They were all over me.

01:39:19.580 I think we had two, two, uh, companies bidding against, uh, get me against each other for the

01:39:24.400 rights to it.

01:39:25.000 The minute the, the, the white house got involved, it was actually van Jones got involved.

01:39:31.080 Uh, and all of a sudden it was like, uh, yeah, we own the rights, but we're not going to

01:39:36.080 do anything with it.

01:39:36.740 You're like, what, what, what, what, what do you mean?

01:39:38.320 You're not going to do anything with it.

01:39:39.620 Um, and this happens all the time in our world, but it only happens Jack, when you're making

01:39:46.840 a difference that that shows how terrified they were of this.

01:39:51.600 And I'm telling you next year, make it bigger, make it better because you will slowly bleed

01:39:57.360 that audience, you're not going to hurt the, the football part of the super bowl.

01:40:02.620 Cause that's unique to the NFL and nobody can replace that.

01:40:06.060 But if you hurt them pre-game halftime post-game, they can't charge all that money.

01:40:13.700 I mean, it, it will really hurt the NFL really hurt.

01:40:18.840 And they're going to say, no, it doesn't affect us at all.

01:40:21.440 Believe me, five years from now that they're freaking out now, five years from now, they'll

01:40:26.720 be freaking out publicly.

01:40:28.680 Well, I can tell you by the way, that I did have a source that, um, uh, through one of

01:40:34.420 the NFL, just sort of a, you know, marketing department, kind of a firm that they use,

01:40:39.180 who was telling us they, they're even that night that they were furious, absolutely furious

01:40:46.300 when they saw the numbers that we did.

01:40:48.980 And then it becomes the number one, actually the X, you know, not being able to stream on

01:40:53.460 X actually helped us with YouTube because it drove all those people to the YouTube audience,

01:40:57.440 uh, to that stream.

01:40:58.740 So it becomes the number one, number one U S stream in American history, number two, YouTube

01:41:06.660 live stream worldwide, ever, ever more than the world cup, uh, more than, than any other

01:41:13.320 sporting event, entertainment event, you name it.

01:41:15.420 The only thing I actually looked this up, the only live stream that was, that was more

01:41:19.860 was when India landed their lunar probe, you know, a couple of years ago, going up against

01:41:26.300 here, going up against 1.8 billion people.

01:41:28.800 I said, I said, of course I said, well guys next year, obviously, you know what this means.

01:41:33.300 We just have to go big.

01:41:34.820 We're doing it on the moon.

01:41:36.220 What do you say?

01:41:37.940 Right.

01:41:38.460 With, with maybe the prime minister of India, um, people are, people are saying that, uh,

01:41:46.860 you guys paid for that.

01:41:48.440 This was all, this was all hype.

01:41:49.960 These weren't real people.

01:41:50.800 You paid for all that.

01:41:52.940 Well, you know, if, if, if people think that was true, which number one, I don't even know

01:41:56.220 how to do, but if that were true, then, then please go ahead and do your own and show us

01:41:59.680 how it's paid for, or just go ahead and beat us, go beat us tomorrow.

01:42:02.680 Right.

01:42:03.040 Just go out and pay for the, you know, and that's, that's what's really, if it, if this were

01:42:06.700 able to be done, which by the way, Glenn, we, we were talking to YouTube the entire

01:42:11.220 night, they were telling us, they were checking in, they can see this on the backend.

01:42:14.800 They can see the heat maps about where the, you know, the, the, the audience is coming

01:42:19.280 from.

01:42:19.660 It's, it's just, you know, they would know what, what traffic, because YouTube of course

01:42:24.160 has, has, uh, you know, because they have advertisers, so they can't, you know, if they're

01:42:30.600 selling fake traffic to their advertisers, then they're committing fraud.

01:42:34.160 YouTube's not going to allow that.

01:42:36.060 And they never once reported a single issue like that to us.

01:42:39.580 Jack Posobiec from TPUSA.

01:42:44.000 Uh, it's always good to talk to you.

01:42:45.620 Say hello to your wife.

01:42:46.900 You married.

01:42:47.700 I will say hello to your, I will.

01:42:49.580 And likewise, by the way, Glenn, I don't know if you remember, but quick story on Christmas

01:42:53.480 sweater, uh, 2006, I think, uh, if I remember correctly, when you brought the Christmas sweater

01:42:59.320 to the Kimmel center, you and I were backstage there together before you went up on the, uh,

01:43:03.940 to do the show.

01:43:04.620 And it was phenomenal.

01:43:05.840 You're phenomenal.

01:43:06.840 Thank you.

01:43:08.300 Gosh, what a great memory.

01:43:09.800 What a great memory.

01:43:10.740 2006.

01:43:11.020 Jack, thank you so much.

01:43:11.860 It was before you moved to New York.

01:43:14.360 Yeah, it was.

01:43:15.560 It was.

01:43:16.160 I was, uh, no, uh, Christmas sweater was the year before I went to Fox.

01:43:21.120 So I was living in Connecticut.

01:43:22.480 I had just left Philadelphia.

01:43:23.900 Oh, you just moved.

01:43:25.120 Okay.

01:43:25.320 Got it.

01:43:26.120 Yeah.

01:43:26.360 Just moved.

01:43:26.920 Yeah.

01:43:27.280 But anyway, Jack, thanks so much.

01:43:29.260 God bless you, man.

01:43:29.900 Appreciate it.

01:43:30.460 And congratulations to everyone at TPUSA.

01:43:33.220 High praise.

01:43:34.000 High praise.

01:43:34.760 Keep it up.

01:43:35.400 Well, hey, Glenn, you, you showed us how to do it, man.

01:43:37.340 You showed us.

01:43:38.420 Thanks.

01:43:39.120 Thanks, man.

01:43:39.620 Appreciate it.

01:43:40.160 Let me talk to you about, uh, American financing.

01:43:42.560 There is a difference between owning a home and having your home work for you.

01:43:47.380 A lot of people bought, you know, or refinance when the rates were higher or the financial

01:43:51.440 situation looked different than it does today.

01:43:53.220 And they've just been writing that same mortgage ever since it's not set in stone.

01:43:57.660 Your mortgage is a financial tool.

01:43:59.400 And like any tool, it should match the job you need it to do right now.

01:44:03.060 Not the job that it was built for years ago.

01:44:05.480 American financing will help homeowners like you take a fresh look at that loan and ask

01:44:10.120 better questions.

01:44:11.020 Can you lower your monthly payment?

01:44:13.080 Um, can you free up room in your budget?

01:44:14.920 Can you consolidate some of those high interest credit cards that are probably operating at

01:44:18.700 20, 25, even 30%, uh, APR?

01:44:22.260 I mean, it's nuts.

01:44:24.200 Can you move into a loan structure that feels more stable and predictable for your family?

01:44:28.180 They have a salaried in-house loan consultants that'll walk you through all of the options.

01:44:32.780 So I want you to call American financing.net right now.

01:44:35.560 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

01:44:39.820 It's American financing.net.

01:44:41.500 NMLS 1-82334 NMLS consumer access.org.

01:44:44.640 APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

01:44:48.340 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

01:44:53.360 Station ID.

01:44:54.440 Glenn Beck is on.

01:45:06.880 So I think today the government is announcing something big.

01:45:10.540 Uh, and you may not even be aware of it.

01:45:13.020 Ricky's looking at me like, what, what are you talking about?

01:45:14.840 This is a big deal, Ricky. 1.00

01:45:15.840 They are announcing today the end of the automatic start, stop button in your stupid car. 1.00

01:45:25.940 You know how you pull up to a light and your car just turns off and you're like, what? 1.00

01:45:31.720 You don't have that in your car?

01:45:33.380 I do, but they can just force that change.

01:45:37.540 No, no, no.

01:45:38.120 They've, it was forced to begin with because it supposedly saves gas.

01:45:43.000 It doesn't save anything.

01:45:44.240 It doesn't save anything.

01:45:45.360 It just annoys everybody.

01:45:46.940 So now the government is saying, you don't have to put that in cars anymore.

01:45:50.300 Uh, and it is the, I believe it's the number one most annoying feature in any car.

01:45:58.100 I mean, in any car.

01:46:00.480 Uh, and you know, they say, well, you can turn it off.

01:46:03.740 Yeah.

01:46:05.360 Every single time you start the car. 0.99

01:46:08.280 I mean, I want it, but let me turn the damn thing off, off. 0.84

01:46:13.640 Not every time I get into the car. 0.95

01:46:15.240 Cause every time I hit a stoplight and the car just dies on me and you're like, oh, even

01:46:20.840 in the fancy cars that you have.

01:46:23.360 Okay.

01:46:23.720 I don't think I need this from you.

01:46:25.200 Yes.

01:46:25.520 Even in the fancy cars, they have it.

01:46:27.740 Believe it or not.

01:46:28.860 Uh, okay.

01:46:30.120 Oh, and AI, uh, open AI chat GPT has just announced a new safety feature because they're very concerned

01:46:40.100 that people under 18 might be getting on a chat GPT.

01:46:44.660 So chat GPT is going to do, uh, a search of you when you're on.

01:46:50.660 Apparently it can tell if you're under 18 by what you're looking at and doing online.

01:46:57.240 I would say you're either under 18 or you're Jeffrey Epstein.

01:47:00.260 Uh, but, uh, they can tell what you're doing, what you're searching for.

01:47:04.940 And they, they can pretty much nail that you're under 18.

01:47:07.920 So there are some features on chat GPT that will be turned off, but here's the thing.

01:47:14.100 It's going to catch some people and they admit it's going to catch some people that are over

01:47:17.960 18.

01:47:19.200 Um, and if you want it turned back on, you ready?

01:47:25.560 You just has to have to produce for chat GPT and open AI, a photo ID.

01:47:33.500 Add that to the very long list of everything you need photo ID for, except for voting or registering

01:47:45.600 to vote.

01:47:47.000 Now chat GPT requires photo ID.

01:47:51.140 If they think you're under 18, which is also another way to get universal ID through, uh,

01:47:58.540 online.

01:47:59.180 So that's a extra added benefit to that story, but we will concentrate on just, they're turning

01:48:04.000 off the car start, stop button.

01:48:07.020 It's a thing of the past.

01:48:08.440 Thank God.

01:48:08.900 So real estate agents, uh, I trust.com just had their, their best two years in a row.

01:48:26.360 That means the real estate agents have sold more, you know, more property, more houses

01:48:32.720 than they have in their careers, all of the real estate agents, best two years of their

01:48:39.300 career.

01:48:40.680 Now, how is that possible?

01:48:42.320 We were talking about this the other day.

01:48:43.580 How is that possible that these guys are having their best two years when everybody is saying

01:48:49.780 you can't sell houses, the market is soft.

01:48:52.720 You can't sell a house, buy a house.

01:48:55.280 Nothing's happening.

01:48:56.260 How is that possible?

01:48:57.900 I'll tell you how it's possible.

01:48:59.780 These guys are experts.

01:49:01.100 These guys know how to read the market and how to get the job.

01:49:04.800 No matter what the market says, they'll get the job done.

01:49:08.880 These are agents all over the country that have been vetted for their experience, their

01:49:13.400 track record, how they treat people, the skills that are really important to make sure that

01:49:19.040 you're dealing with somebody you can trust and we'll get the job done for you.

01:49:23.280 Doesn't cost you anything.

01:49:24.540 I don't charge you anything.

01:49:25.400 You just go, we'll give you the name of the agent that we trust in your area.

01:50:12.540 Today, Glenbeck.com and Torch has been under attack.

01:50:21.700 We've had a massive DDoS attack.

01:50:24.560 We believe it's a possible state actor that is doing it, probably because of our next guest.

01:50:32.100 We have the crown prince of Iran on with us.

01:50:37.600 We now have, and I thank you so much for supporting Torch.

01:50:42.540 And subscribing, Glenbeck.com slash Torch subscribe.

01:50:45.700 We now have 142 countries, people from 142 countries all over the globe listening.

01:50:54.880 I mean, the growth has been dramatic.

01:50:56.840 Last week, it was 36 countries.

01:50:58.720 Now it's 142 countries.

01:51:00.780 And some of those are not countries that are friendly to the United States at all.

01:51:07.100 And we must be doing something right.

01:51:10.740 So I thank you again for your support at Glenbeck.com slash Torch.

01:51:15.300 But yesterday, I talked to the crown prince.

01:51:19.320 And you can watch the entire interview.

01:51:22.060 It's 20 minutes or something like that.

01:51:24.040 You watch the entire interview at Glenbeck.com and see it.

01:51:28.740 Because what he said, we addressed everything.

01:51:30.740 And I had some hard-hitting questions about his role and does he see himself really as the guy that people are going to accept.

01:51:42.120 But I started talking to him about Trump trying to make a deal with Iran.

01:51:47.840 And after the government has murdered recently 37,000 protesters, how can he possibly – how does he view peace and these peace deals with Donald Trump?

01:52:03.980 And here's what he said.

01:52:04.640 Glenn, your instincts are absolutely right.

01:52:08.360 And I think beyond the moral issue that it implies, you should also remember that there's something that you simply cannot change in the sense of having a different DNA for the regime.

01:52:19.980 This regime, from the very beginning, in its DNA, in its behavior and comportment, its entire ideological basis of exporting this radical interpretation that has been hostile to the United States, that has been hostile to countries like Israel, that has been basically anti-West, anti-democracy.

01:52:39.540 From the get-go, that was in their DNA.

01:52:42.500 They never negotiated with the intentions to actually come back to the fold.

01:52:48.340 The only technique that they have used, or tactic, rather, that they have used was to gain time and buy time.

01:52:54.260 This is yet another example of the regime trying to buy time, to ride out the Trump administration, hoping that the next administration will not be as resolute for it.

01:53:03.720 That's a game they've been playing for years.

01:53:05.760 And I think the world should say enough already.

01:53:08.540 47 years later, enough have been given as a chance for this regime to go clean.

01:53:13.840 The best investment that world leaders, President Trump, and American citizens can have is to invest on the people of Iran and not on a regime that is dying as a result of mismanagement and corruption. 0.71

01:53:28.320 It's been totally, you know, lost its legitimacy, particularly in the aftermath of this genocide.

01:53:34.880 This is a golden opportunity that faces the entire world, how a different Iran would be able to be impactful in changing the entire circumstances the world over, starting with our own region. 1.00

01:53:47.920 This regime has fallen way short of that.

01:53:50.580 It does not represent the Iranian people.

01:53:53.300 Negotiating with this regime is another slap in the face of the Iranian people. 0.68

01:53:58.060 I don't think Iranians should have died in vain.

01:54:01.360 They deserve better.

01:54:02.340 And I think President Trump is someone who is a man of his word, is a peacemaker.

01:54:07.620 And you understand that the best way to achieve peace is not to rely on a regime that will betray you yet again, but a nation that stands ready to step in and say, we are your friends.

01:54:17.600 We are your partners for a different future.

01:54:20.480 So correct me if I'm wrong, but what I hear you saying is you're not going to be satisfied.

01:54:24.260 Neither would the people be satisfied with just a nuclear deal.

01:54:28.060 Do you have conversation?

01:54:30.140 Do you have, I mean, it's been almost a total blackout on the ground.

01:54:35.560 Do you still have contact with people?

01:54:38.100 Are they, are they, is this just, have they just left the streets waiting for another reason to get out on the streets?

01:54:46.260 Are they waiting for backup?

01:54:47.740 What is the mood there?

01:54:49.560 Do you know?

01:54:50.280 Yes, the mood is very, very, a lot of anger, a lot of continued fight and resistance.

01:55:00.200 Iranians are using every opportunity to continue showing their resolve and determination to fight this regime to the very end.

01:55:08.840 You see it in cemeteries where people gather over their loved ones and, and, and in defiance of the regime, celebrate their life rather than, you know, fall into somber tears.

01:55:22.960 They, they, they, they, they dance and they chant.

01:55:24.880 At the university centers, you hear people as chanting slogans.

01:55:28.880 There are people at nighttime chanting their slogans.

01:55:32.200 We might have to be forced to re, uh, retrieval as being physically on the streets, not to be massacred yet again, which is how important it is that this military intervention could, uh, to equal, uh, equal the playing field for, for, for unarmed citizens.

01:55:45.200 And they will be back on the streets the minute this happens.

01:55:47.580 So I have no doubt that the Iranian people, there's too much blood between us and this regime for us to quit. 1.00

01:55:54.020 We have only one choice and to continue on fighting.

01:55:56.860 We simply hope that the free world, particularly the United States of America, under the leadership of President Trump, understand that what's at stake is beyond just regional peace.

01:56:07.620 It's beyond just the question of, uh, putting an end to the terror that this regime has spread.

01:56:13.120 Humanity can benefit from that.

01:56:15.820 And this is a case in time where, uh, ultimately, uh, that has to be the final triumph for the betterment of our planet.

01:56:23.360 And the Iranian people have always been on the right side of history as peacemakers and not warmongers.

01:56:29.980 Uh, why don't you create a partnership with the peacemakers for once after trying to deal with warmongers who, from the very beginning, were chanting death to America or death to Israel, as opposed to a nation.

01:56:40.900 And I'd like to remind your audience, Glenn, that the only country after 9-11, when many of your allies in the region had celebrations on their streets of the 9-11 terrorist attack, the only country where you had candlelight vigils in sympathy to the victims of 9-11 were no other than the Iranian people inside Iran, not just outside, inside Iran.

01:57:04.380 Remember that.

01:57:04.880 Remember that.

01:57:05.640 That's what at stake.

01:57:06.720 And President Trump should recognize that as well.

01:57:08.880 This is a big decision.

01:57:10.520 I started the interview with, this feels like the Berlin Wall, or has felt like the moment the Berlin Wall fell.

01:57:16.600 Um, and our government could only do so much on that.

01:57:22.260 Um, it has to come from the people.

01:57:24.660 I believe airstrikes will come, whether that's enough for the people.

01:57:29.600 I don't know.

01:57:30.200 Do they, do they know the Armada is coming?

01:57:33.860 Are they aware of what's, what America is doing?

01:57:37.740 And would an airstrike, would that be enough for them?

01:57:41.660 Cause we cannot topple the regime.

01:57:44.320 It has to come from the people.

01:57:46.720 Of course.

01:57:47.720 Will this be enough?

01:57:49.600 It will be an equalizer in the sense that you are taking by means that we don't have, because we are not armed against this regime that is using military rifles to shoot people to death on the streets of Iran, including five-year-olds.

01:58:02.600 We don't have any way to equalize the playing fields out of our own means.

01:58:06.700 It's only a foreign military intervention that can neutralize the apparatus of repression in Iran, namely IRGC, and anything associated with the instrument of repression can equalize the playing field.

01:58:19.100 So people in Iran have a fair chance to do it.

01:58:21.260 We have never heard any Iranian, myself included, calling for boots on the ground by a foreign military.

01:58:27.700 We are the boots on the ground.

01:58:29.140 It's the people on the streets.

01:58:30.340 But we are defenseless and unarmed.

01:58:32.640 That's where you can help us to at least give the people a chance for the final uprising for a victory.

01:58:39.140 We'll do the rest ourselves.

01:58:40.380 We'll bring the pressure from within.

01:58:41.740 We'll have labor strikes. 0.98

01:58:42.680 We'll do whatever it takes to finally force this regime to collapse.

01:58:47.940 But the world can help us too.

01:58:49.640 One of them is exactly this targeted strike that the U.S. can help with, because you're the only country in the world capable of doing that, number one.

01:58:56.920 Number two, the world can also further help us by crippling the regime's means of having income to pay for its war machine, to pay the salaries of these mercenaries they bring from the outside to repress people, and so on and so forth.

01:59:10.100 These are all elements that can expedite the process, but we're not saying that a foreign country should do the revolution for us.

01:59:17.200 We're doing it, but we need your help.

01:59:19.220 And there are many instances in history that we have seen that successful ultimate struggles were won because those people fighting for their respective freedoms were not alone.

01:59:29.580 And at some point, there was some tacit help from the outside world, standing on the right side of history.

01:59:35.140 This is what the Iranian people are expecting right now, to have gone on the streets with a promise that there will be an intervention. 0.86

01:59:42.320 And I hope that President Trump will, in fact, carry out on his promise.

01:59:46.160 I understand that he needed to prove to the world that every attempt was made to resolve the matter diplomatically, but I don't think that this regime is even close to the minimum expectation that the U.S. has, whether it's a nuclear program or the ballistic program or anything else.

02:00:01.040 So I think that is going to be, again, the reason I'm telling you Oman is just another attempt at the regime to buy time. 0.77

02:00:07.000 Let's not fall for those old tricks again.

02:00:08.860 This is the time to take this isolation.

02:00:10.320 That is the crown prince, Reza Pahlavi, from Iran.

02:00:19.440 The entire interview is fascinating because I talked to him about, you know, are you the guy?

02:00:26.000 Because nobody remembers you if they're, unless they're my age, they don't remember you if they're 30 or 40.

02:00:32.560 His dad and his family were ousted in 1979.

02:00:35.520 Um, are they, do they want to go back to a, you know, a constitutional monarch?

02:00:43.200 What, what, what, what is the system look like?

02:00:45.620 And he explains that, um, you know, one of the things I didn't have a chance to get into is how brilliant the guy is on media.

02:00:52.980 You know, he's, he, they, they've shut the internet down, but they can't shut it all down.

02:00:58.060 They shut about 90% of it down leaves about 10%, but they are all over that 10%.

02:01:03.800 He has made very, very short videos, like really short eight o'clock, go out on your street and, you know, scream, free the Republic, whatever.

02:01:15.080 Um, and, and if you can't do that, uh, if your friends don't know this, pass this onto them or tell them eight o'clock tonight, that's how he's getting the word out.

02:01:25.760 Uh, and that's how these things are happening.

02:01:27.940 He's, he's very, very bright.

02:01:30.420 Um, I do believe he, he is right when it comes to what Donald Trump is doing.

02:01:35.580 I think he is giving the world an understanding that we've done everything we can to try to get to peace.

02:01:42.540 Um, uh, but this time it's different.

02:01:45.420 Um, you know, is this in America's interest to do this?

02:01:54.560 Is this America first? 0.98

02:01:58.480 Yes.

02:01:58.920 And no, if it goes into a war, no.

02:02:03.840 Um, however, what Donald Trump has done is he is, he's rebuilding.

02:02:10.220 The first thing he did was go back to the middle East and try to rebuild the middle East. 0.90

02:02:14.700 Why did he do that?

02:02:16.020 Not because he has something for the middle East and he loves the middle East better than he loves America. 0.99

02:02:20.660 Any of that crap. 0.87

02:02:21.800 He's doing that because we've been bogged down in war for 40 years in the middle East. 0.98

02:02:28.960 Every time there's a problem, we have to go and solve it.

02:02:32.540 And for the last 20, we've had boots on the ground and he does not want boots on the ground.

02:02:37.740 So what did he do?

02:02:38.980 He, for the very first time was able to put Israel, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, all of these countries together and say, we're going to work together.

02:02:50.900 Now, all of these countries also have the same enemy and that's Iran. 0.81

02:02:56.300 So when you have, when you have the Iranian, uh, leadership being the head of the snake, remember I said this to you in 2003. 1.00

02:03:05.900 2003, when did we go to, when did we go to war with, uh, Iraq 2004, 2003, when we went to Iraq, I said, look, here's what I think the game plan is.

02:03:17.540 You got Afghanistan on one side, you have Iraq on the other, and the head of the snake is in between and that's Iran. 1.00

02:03:23.460 That's, that's the one causing all of the problems.

02:03:25.660 The, the idea is to pop its head.

02:03:28.400 Um, that never happened, uh, because I don't know if that was ever the real plan.

02:03:32.400 Um, but that's Donald Trump's plan is to get Iran out of the picture.

02:03:39.820 Um, and so that part to keep us out of the middle East, to build, to build the middle East up into a system that can support and police itself is really, really good, uh, for us to end Iranian supported, uh, uh, terror around the world. 0.96

02:03:58.020 Really good.

02:03:58.840 I mean, we were talking earlier today about, um, uh, about El Paso in case you don't know, they, at four o'clock this morning, they shut down the airport in El Paso said that it was going to take 10 days.

02:04:12.760 We don't know why some securities, uh, concern.

02:04:15.640 We then later found out they opened it back up because the government or military was shooting down drones from Mexico.

02:04:23.180 Well, we know that Hezbollah has partnered with, uh, cartels on our border.

02:04:29.460 Is that part of it?

02:04:30.920 I don't know, but it strengthens us.

02:04:35.660 It, uh, strengthens us with oil exports.

02:04:39.540 It hurts, uh, our enemies, China and Russia.

02:04:43.540 Yeah, as long as it doesn't go into war, it is absolutely America first. 0.81

02:04:49.400 All right.

02:04:57.540 Relief factor is our sponsor.

02:04:59.080 There is a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from hurting.

02:05:02.440 You know, when every little movement has a little edge to it, you think twice before the stairs or long walks or anything, you know, uh, because if you do anything, it comes back and you're like, ow.

02:05:12.640 Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow. 1.00

02:05:15.860 Inflammation that never really powers down is the problem.

02:05:18.800 And your body's response, uh, is inflammation and it can get stuck in the on position.

02:05:25.360 Instead of helping you heal, it just reminds you something is wrong all the time.

02:05:29.240 Relief factor helps support your body's natural response to inflammation.
