00:02:48.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:56.000 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:58.840 I believe there is no such thing as a coincidence.
00:03:01.320 You are here for a reason, and I hope to be an answer to that reason for you.
00:03:06.340 I want to draw a picture of America using six different news stories today that you might have read about,
00:03:13.980 and everybody will tell you that they're separate, they're not connected, they're all connected.
00:03:17.360 and what do they say about us the news of the day what what picture is it painting we begin there in
00:03:25.560 60 seconds first let me tell you about leaf filter the annoying home problems you know oh my gosh
00:03:31.420 they just never ever ever stop can we stop with the problems at the house please here's one you
00:03:41.240 can stop with gutters uh you know most the time they're out of sight they're out of mind but when
00:03:46.920 they fill up with leaves then the rainwater stops flowing away and it starts flowing right into your
00:03:53.640 your foundation and your siding in your basement a lot of people have to deal with that by climbing
00:03:57.960 up a ladder a few times a year cleaning them out but that's not really the solution it's a chore
00:04:02.440 that you're just going to be doing forever and i hate chores i've got enough chores in my life
00:04:09.000 i'd like to suggest leaf filter their system is designed to keep leaves and debris out while
00:04:14.360 still allowing water to flow through and away from your home the way it's supposed to so instead of
00:04:18.760 clogged gutters uh you've got uh no weekend on the ladder everything's flowing and you're you've got
00:04:24.920 your feet up uh on the couch start protecting your home today with leaf filter america's number one
00:04:30.200 gutter protection system schedule your free inspection at leaffilter.com glennbeck get up
00:04:35.240 to 15 off now at leaffilter.com glennbeck see uh the uh warranty and promotion details also minimum
00:04:43.640 purchases require restrictions to apply it's relieffilter.com slash glennbeck okay what have
00:04:49.920 i told you the biggest story in america right now is not just one story it's six and maybe not the
00:04:56.500 six that you think six different headlines scattered unrelated easy to scroll pass but
00:05:03.280 every single one of them is telling you the same thing and let me show you because you'll see it
00:05:09.280 Once you step back, you'll see it.
00:05:12.500 Right now, you're being told stories about fraud, about courts, about China, about crime, about debt, about war.
00:05:19.960 And they all seem separate, but they are not.
00:05:23.120 They are one story.
00:05:24.400 And the story, it's a story about the system itself.
00:05:30.220 we know quietly buried almost as an afterthought that the u.s intelligence and had evidence
00:05:39.640 uh joe biden had evidence that china was accessing now american voter registration data in 2020
00:05:48.500 we now know this to be true we have the evidence we have the documents and it was hidden and it
00:05:56.100 was hidden from members of Congress, hidden from the people. Now think about this. This is not a
00:06:02.420 conspiracy theory. This is not a guess. This is a conspiracy fact. It's known and it was filed away
00:06:09.120 and ignored. And while the country argued about everything else at the same exact time, now a new
00:06:17.580 national fraud task force is being launched first story number one we have voter fraud we knew about
00:06:27.440 it china was hacking all of our voted data voter data in uh 2020 no one knew to knew about it i'm
00:06:36.440 sorry some people knew about it they didn't tell anybody else and they told us this is the safest
00:06:42.600 election ever. Story number two, there is so much fraud in this country that I believe if we found
00:06:50.120 even half of it, we would balance the budget. Stop. Sit with this for a second. We are $39
00:06:59.180 trillion in debt. And the claim is not that we need to grow our way out or cut our spending,
00:07:07.560 But the money is already there
00:07:10.100 It's just being stolen
00:07:12.720 New task force started
00:07:20.720 Donald Trump says he's going to get to the bottom of it
00:07:23.540 He's got J.D. Vance on it
00:07:29.540 I'm going to go into this story
00:07:31.080 I'm going to expand on all of these stories
00:07:33.380 Okay
00:07:34.140 but the question is was is our money being stolen is our money being lost is it hidden
00:07:45.680 i think we need to know are we being robbed or are we just going broke i think we should know that
00:07:55.580 because those are two different things two different countries and while that question
00:08:00.860 now hangs in the air. Let me give you the third story. The Supreme Court is quietly, patiently
00:08:07.000 reconsidering something most Americans have never even heard of. It's called qualified immunity,
00:08:12.600 a doctrine in plain English that means government officials can violate your rights and you can't do
00:08:19.960 anything about it unless someone else has already been violated in exactly the same way. I mean,
00:08:28.560 exactly the same way. Now think about that standard. Not was it wrong, but has this exact
00:08:38.560 wrong been done before and then written down? That's the standard. That's been the standard
00:08:47.140 now for a couple of decades. Why? Why? That's the constitution protecting the government,
00:08:54.500 not protecting you and your rights.
00:08:58.600 So at the exact same moment that we're discovering possible foreign access to our elections in 2020,
00:09:05.820 massive systematic fraud, exploding debt,
00:09:11.020 the one question that actually matters is, will anyone be held accountable?
00:09:16.320 Well, the answer until now has largely been no.
00:09:21.640 this isn't just happening in Washington
00:09:26.280 it's happening on your street
00:09:28.320 listen to this story
00:09:30.540 in Las Vegas
00:09:32.080 police refused to release a violent offender
00:09:35.320 35 arrests
00:09:38.340 manslaughter
00:09:40.340 conviction
00:09:41.300 a judge said
00:09:43.900 release him
00:09:44.960 the police said
00:09:47.220 not on your life
00:09:49.440 the judge said we'll hold you in contempt they said go ahead hold us in contempt
00:09:57.800 excuse me what's what's happening here you understand how extraordinary this is this is
00:10:04.720 not a policy disagreement this is the system breaking in real time because when the people
00:10:12.020 inside the system stop trusting the system they have to start choosing something else
00:10:18.300 survival and all of this is happening all of this is happening while while the world outside our
00:10:30.100 borders is shifting just as fast the united states is now asking our allies to stand with it in one
00:10:35.880 of the most critical choke points on earth the straits of our moves okay now this part i love
00:10:40.900 because what is donald trump doing donald trump is doing what he did to the democrats at the state
00:10:47.000 of the Union. We don't need Europe. What does Germany have? One ship? France, he said yesterday,
00:10:54.960 France is helping. And I love this quote from Donald Trump, but it's France. But the UK won't
00:11:01.820 help. What is he doing? He's saying, I don't need your help. We don't need your help. But you're our
00:11:07.320 ally, right? And the world's oil is at stake. You want to send down some help to help us guard the
00:11:14.100 Straits, the Strait of Hormuz? And they're saying no, no, not our war, not our problem. Germany,
00:11:21.020 the UK, stepping back, not leading in. Well, wait a minute, what is our alliance all about?
00:11:29.540 NATO, partnerships, unity, that's what we always have heard. Now, when it matters,
00:11:34.100 hesitation, distance, excuses. So let me line these six stories up for you,
00:11:38.920 because here's where it all starts to change
00:11:42.080 if you look at it from a distance.
00:11:44.400 We have a system that is compromised
00:11:46.840 and China is accessing our voter data
00:11:50.380 and nobody in Washington told you or the lawmakers about it.
00:11:54.740 We have a system that is corrupted,
00:11:57.360 massive fraud draining our resources.
00:12:00.200 Somebody is stealing.
00:12:01.360 Do we know who?
00:12:02.780 We have a system that is mathematically unsustainable,
00:12:06.780 $39 trillion in debt. We have a system that avoids accountability, qualified immunity.
00:12:15.880 We have a system now breaking down locally, police defying courts to protect citizens.
00:12:24.380 And a system losing global cohesion. Our allies stepping back in real time. What is happening
00:12:31.080 here. Because this isn't politics. This isn't left versus right. This is not even policy.
00:12:37.700 This is structural. This is what happens when the things you were told were solid are liquid.
00:12:47.600 And everything starts to shift. Everything starts to move. So here's what you need to think about.
00:12:53.580 when the people you listen to or watch stand too close to the news, they can't see the actual
00:13:01.560 picture. It's hard. It's hard to see the real picture because human nature tells you, look
00:13:08.440 away. It's called the normalcy bias. Just these are separate stories. Don't look at them. But
00:13:13.920 when you see a story, you think it's bad, but not connected. In reality, they are connected.
00:13:20.940 Each dot makes up a picture.
00:13:25.620 And a picture like this doesn't happen all at once.
00:13:27.840 It happens slowly.
00:13:28.760 It happens quietly.
00:13:30.240 It happens individually.
00:13:32.160 And each piece is explainable in itself.
00:13:35.560 So every story by itself is dismissible.
00:13:39.180 Until one day you realize they were never separate stories at all.
00:13:43.680 They were all what?
00:13:45.960 They're not stories.
00:13:47.880 They're signals.
00:13:49.200 their sirens, their warnings. And now here we are. The moment where you have to decide when
00:13:59.460 you're looking at the news, what am I actually looking at? Am I looking at now these stories
00:14:08.340 because all of them are being uncovered? So that means the government is actually starting to do
00:14:15.840 its job and uncovering these things. So is this a correction? Is the system finally cleaning
00:14:22.560 itself up? Finally confronting fraud? Confronting corruption? Restoring accountability? Having our
00:14:30.360 allies take a stand one way or another? Or is this what it looks like when a system begins to lose
00:14:38.260 control of itself. Because empires don't collapse because of one event. They collapse because trust
00:14:46.700 erodes, systems fail, accountability completely disappears, and people stop believing.
00:14:55.420 And when that happens, you don't get chaos overnight. You get something more dangerous.
00:15:00.500 You get drift. Institutions that drift apart. Allies drift away. Truth drifts out of reach.
00:15:08.260 and the average person sitting at the kitchen table looking at the bills looking at the headlines
00:15:12.420 looking at the world says something's not right i don't know what it is i can't take it anymore
00:15:21.380 because you've stopped believing
00:15:29.140 when you stop looking at all of the stories as broken up and separate stories and you look at
00:15:33.780 at them at one. Yes, it can be overwhelming, but then the answer is clearer. The question is,
00:15:40.940 what is this moment? Because if this is a correction and we lean into it, we fix it,
00:15:48.420 we demand the truth, we rebuild. But if this is collapsed, then the most dangerous thing we can
00:15:54.980 do is pretend it's normal. So what is the solution? There's the picture in six stories.
00:16:03.260 What's the solution?
00:16:05.200 The solution is, wake up, if you're not awake,
00:16:08.660 wake up and recognize where we are in history.
00:16:13.640 Look at the two choices in front of us.
00:16:15.920 Are we correcting it?
00:16:17.740 Because there is a movement to correct it right now.
00:16:21.140 Are you part of that movement?
00:16:24.180 Or are you part of the movement that says,
00:16:26.300 I just can't do anything about it, just let it slide, it's over.
00:16:30.060 I know which side I've chosen.
00:16:32.720 I demand we tear down the corruption while others try to tear down the system.
00:16:41.280 We tear down the corruption.
00:16:44.120 I demand we believe that this country is worth saving
00:16:48.780 and taking the steps every day to preserve our principles in our own families,
00:16:53.860 in our own neighborhood, in our own town, in our own state.
00:16:56.920 There are six stories. Six stories today. That's all it is.
00:17:00.760 Six headlines.
00:17:03.420 But if you read them separately, you're not going to get it.
00:17:06.100 When you see them together, those six stories become everything.
00:17:12.280 More in a minute.
00:17:14.380 Somebody out there right now knows your full name, your address, date of birth, your social security number,

00:17:33.100 crimes using your name. You may not find out until the damage is already done, and that's why

00:18:14.780 10 seconds station id
00:18:27.720 Let me play a quick little game of who'd we kill last night and bring in Jason.
00:18:34.380 Jason, we killed two big leaders in Iran last night or yesterday.
00:18:42.000 Can you tell me who they were?
00:18:44.020 Yeah, so the first big one was a man named Laron Johnny, which is not an easy name to pronounce.
00:18:49.820 But Laron Johnny was pretty much under the old, wait, which leader are we under, right?
00:18:54.720 It's getting hard to keep track of all the leaders, but the original one, Khamenei, he was probably number two right underneath Khamenei.
00:19:04.300 You might want to, because of now the information that's coming out about his son, you might want to not use the phrase underneath.
00:19:13.260 I just want to just point that out.
00:19:20.060 I'm not going to be able to continue this.
00:19:22.240 Let's go ahead.
00:19:22.860 Tell me about Mr. Laryngitis or whatever his name is
00:19:25.560 because he's not speaking anymore, so we'll just call him that.
00:19:28.780 Yeah, it's Laryngitis.
00:19:29.900 He was number two right underneath Khamenei,
00:19:32.060 and then right when Khamenei got taken out,
00:19:34.040 a lot of people thought there was going to be a power struggle.
00:19:36.520 No matter who they declared to be the leader,
00:19:38.720 they always thought that Laryngitis was going to be the one
00:19:41.060 that was pulling the strings behind the fact.
00:19:43.120 And it was really interesting that he was not in that first weekish period of time
00:19:48.760 where he was not targeted.
00:19:49.840 They probably just could not find him.
00:19:51.140 I do not know how they ended up finding him now, but he has now been confirmed to be taken out yesterday.
00:19:58.280 So that is a big, big blow to the core of the IRGC fanaticals.
00:20:03.380 He's one of the original OGs of the IRGC.
00:20:07.360 So that is a big, big get.
00:20:08.800 They also took out the head of the besieged forces.
00:20:11.200 So the besieged forces are the security forces inside Iran,
00:20:14.800 And they would be the people that are sending out security forces to put down any uprising if the, as the crown prince told you, the boots on the ground, the Iranian demonstrators, when they do actually come out, he is a big hit to the effort to stop them.
00:20:31.600 So big, big developments last night.
00:20:33.340 I feel like there's huge developments almost every single day.
00:20:36.480 But that is the pace of the war.
00:20:39.060 And it's a positive for the U.S.
00:20:41.440 Let me bring Ricky in on this, too.
00:20:43.380 I'd love to hear your opinions on what's happening with NATO, because I think Donald Trump is just doing what he did at the State of the Union and just revealing to the world, look who stands, look who doesn't.
00:21:01.840 Germany, they want all of our troops, they want all of our money, they want all of our protection.
00:21:06.340 They want us to help them protect against Russia while buying Russian oil.
00:21:13.720 And now we're asking them for a little help down in the Straits of Hormuz.
00:21:17.620 Not just for us, but the Strait of Hormuz, sorry, 20% of all of the Earth's oil that we use every day goes through that strait.
00:21:27.620 We just want to have a coalition together and everybody stand together.
00:21:31.140 And they're not doing it.
00:21:33.140 And I think he's using this to make the point.
00:21:35.820 Ricky, do you agree or disagree with that?
00:21:38.720 Yeah, he's being framed in the media, though, as being revealed to be alone.
00:21:45.380 The U.S. stands alone.
00:21:46.640 How embarrassing that the U.S. is all alone in their war when Trump this whole time said, we don't need NATO.
00:21:53.900 But you're right.
00:21:54.840 I think he is revealing that we don't have no clothes.
00:21:58.020 We don't need NATO.
00:21:59.300 And by the way, we're alone.
00:22:01.240 Did you see the story in Al Jazeera?
00:22:05.320 That, by the way, is Qatar.
00:22:08.320 For anybody who is in love with Qatar, you might want to check because Qatar in Al Jazeera just ran an article that talked about how this is working, that this is a really good thing for Qatar and the Middle East.
00:22:23.720 And all of the allies of the Middle East are all coming to aid and coming to the conclusion now, this is a great answer to the problems of the Middle East, yet Europe's not.
00:22:38.880 It is just bizarre, just bizarre.
00:22:41.600 Yeah, what's interesting about that op-ed published by a scholar is that you know that Al Jazeera, which is really run by the government, did not publish that without giving free reign.
00:22:56.820 Exactly right.
00:22:57.320 So why?
00:22:59.880 Because I think, I mean, Qatar either takes its orders or gives orders to the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:23:06.480 No matter what anybody says about Qatar, Qatar is not a friendly country.
00:23:10.020 country um but the uh they run the muslim brotherhood or the muslim brotherhood has run
00:23:15.240 out of there or the qatari robes that are running absolutely everything so this wasn't just one guy
00:23:21.820 going you know what we and qatar love it uh-uh this was a signal to the rest of the world even
00:23:29.140 the qataris are on side with this action in iran that great joins us next first some of the most

00:25:23.220 Thank you.
00:25:23.620 It's nice.
00:25:26.620 It is so cold in this state.
00:25:28.980 Yeah.
00:25:29.240 It is so cold in this state.
00:25:30.660 And it's supposed to be like 98 on Friday.
00:25:34.660 Yesterday it was 38.
00:25:36.520 Going to Texas, the weather is like, no offense to women,
00:25:41.760 but it's like being married to a crazy woman.
00:25:45.620 You get up every day and you're like, no offense to women.
00:25:47.900 No offense to women.
00:25:49.100 Crazy women, yes, take offense.
00:25:50.960 But it's like being married to a crazy woman.
00:25:52.780 You get up in the morning and you're like, I don't even know how to dress.
00:25:55.800 I don't know what I'm in for today.
00:25:57.240 I have no idea.
00:25:58.400 could be 90 could be one that's texas weather uh so anyway how are you happy st patrick's day
00:26:07.060 yeah thank you yeah you're in big aura whatever that means yeah uh but uh did you see that the
00:26:12.600 um you see the ayatollah sun uh yes might be gay yes which is impossible of course because there's
00:26:19.220 no gay people in iran right we know that a long time ago yeah president ahmedinajad said we are
00:26:24.900 a country that has no gay people mainly because they were throwing off off the roof yeah oh you're
00:26:30.580 oh you it's one of the fairies let's see you fly and they would take them off and throw them off
00:26:35.420 of roofs and they couldn't fly because uh that's not the way that works um but uh then they would
00:26:41.320 behead them or execute them in the public square so they were thinning them out what they missed
00:26:46.080 and do you think it was the beard it might have been might have been the beard it's so manly that
00:26:50.680 beard uh and we it's weird that he it's a beard because it's a beard he's uh he's not apparently
00:26:58.560 really a devout muslim uh he's because he's having sex with men apparently and that might be why his
00:27:06.380 dad wasn't that excited about him taking over you think yeah yeah uh because he's gay and that's
00:27:12.620 i don't know it's not a thing he's not as scary though if you know if we could just get him it
00:27:18.360 You know, like, I'm going to give Trump such a hit.
00:27:21.220 Such a hit.
00:27:21.960 Don't even think about it.
00:27:23.160 I was reading some of his father's disturbing lines, and I'm thinking they don't ring the same.
00:27:27.680 Like, the author and all involved are sentenced to death, and I call on all zealous Muslims to execute them wherever they find them.
00:27:35.740 The author and everybody involved sends to death, and I call on zealous Muslim to execute them wherever they find them.
00:27:43.080 I don't think that's a scare.
00:27:44.260 I think this is a step in the right direction.
00:27:46.480 I think it's a step in the right direction
00:27:49.380 maybe it's just me
00:27:53.320 plus you could redecorate the palace
00:27:56.120 as well
00:27:57.200 it needs some redecorating at this point
00:27:59.620 maybe you can make the beard look a little better
00:28:02.220 look a little better
00:28:03.580 so what do you think of this
00:28:08.020 we talked the other day about
00:28:09.440 the war
00:28:10.820 I am to this place
00:28:13.880 Pat where
00:28:14.660 i don't like the endless wars yeah i don't i don't like war yeah obviously uh i'm not and
00:28:22.780 we've come a long way in that regard i used to be we were all gung-ho about going into iraq
00:28:27.360 right afghanistan and that's just not the case not the case and i'm torn on this one i know i
00:28:33.960 wouldn't have had the guts to do it because it's risky this don't you think this is the riskiest
00:28:38.820 thing big time you've seen a president do yeah um knowingly step into it i mean the riskiest
00:28:44.600 thing was well we did it we hired biden uh that was probably the riskiest thing i've seen anybody
00:28:50.120 do is make him the president of the united states but for a president this is probably the most
00:28:56.140 risky thing i have absolutely no idea if this is going to turn out to world war three good or it
00:29:01.880 could be one of the greatest things ever done could be that too right yeah where do you stand
00:29:06.800 on it uh now that we're in it i'm i just want to finish the job because it would be horrific i
00:29:13.740 think now to leave it undone uh and i think that might send the wrong message i think it might
00:29:18.080 yeah i think we've sent that message a time or two and it had it didn't turn out well really
00:29:23.040 and so um you know and president trump said yesterday that a former president had told him
00:29:29.200 he wished he did it and i think it was bill clinton and i think that's probably true i'll
00:29:34.240 bet bill clinton wishes he had done this a long time ago bill clinton wanted to go after remember
00:29:38.960 he wanted to go after uh osama bin laden yeah wouldn't let him right wouldn't let him right
00:29:44.860 wouldn't let him he went after bombed the aspirin factory and then i believe they had a drone
00:29:49.620 targeted him and the cia said no you can't it was the cia or i can't remember it's one of them said
00:29:55.400 legally you can't do that you can't just drone him and it's like the hell i can't just pretty
00:30:01.460 amazing really amazing would have later on we were droning american citizens i know in yemen i know
00:30:07.460 And so it's amazing.
00:30:11.200 But I think we have to finish the job now.
00:30:14.720 And I wasn't super excited about going into Iran in the first place and start the bombing campaign.
00:30:21.320 But when they made the case, they kind of won me over with it.
00:30:26.400 What was the case?
00:30:27.420 Because I don't know if I heard the case.
00:30:29.480 Help me out.
00:30:30.100 I don't think I remember the case.
00:30:31.860 Well, the case is kind of that they were, again, trying to enrich uranium to the point where they're—
00:30:37.180 that nuclear yes i have to in order to be okay with this so i i mean i don't know that it's not
00:30:43.560 true i just can't accept it i mean my feeling on that is show me the evidence otherwise i don't
00:30:49.020 want to hear it yeah because i've been saying that since 2000 i know and i get it from great
00:30:55.020 sources and they're all like glenn they are 10 minutes away from creating a bomb and you're like
00:30:59.440 we've heard that for a long time forever for 25 years i've heard that yeah that by next week
00:31:04.840 they might have 150,000
00:31:07.060 nuclear weapons. You're like,
00:31:08.840 really? By next week? We should
00:31:10.880 go in now.
00:31:12.500 So they say this again.
00:31:14.840 And we already
00:31:17.320 did the bombing campaign last
00:31:19.100 summer. And they said, we got it all.
00:31:20.900 And they said they got it. And so I
00:31:22.920 believed it then.
00:31:24.140 I do believe that they could
00:31:27.040 be restarting their program, though.
00:31:29.420 You know who you sound like? The cowardly lion
00:31:31.240 in The Wizard of Oz. I do believe.
00:31:33.100 I do believe. I do believe.
00:31:34.840 and and they've got this they've had this coming for a long time i mean we did nothing about clear
00:31:41.560 1979 clear their enemy and the difference to me is this president look to the end first
00:31:50.680 you know he put the the coalition together in the middle east not a bunch of western
00:31:56.220 countries but the coalition in the middle east and is pretty much saying you guys are going to
00:32:01.120 deal with this yeah i'm gonna come in and i'm gonna i'm gonna make them impudent sorry it might
00:32:08.200 be a good thing for the uh but uh i'm gonna make sure they can't do any harm and then you guys are
00:32:14.800 gonna take care of it and they seem to be did you see the al jazeera thing today no al jazeera just
00:32:21.060 ran an uh an editorial that said we're with the action in iran oh wow qatar wow qatar al jazeera
00:32:31.100 Zero.
00:32:31.820 Could be because Iran keeps attacking them.
00:32:34.160 Maybe that's part of it.
00:32:35.180 Yeah, it could be.
00:32:35.920 And everybody else.
00:32:36.880 I mean, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates.
00:32:41.320 Why are you attacking Dubai?
00:32:43.440 What is that about?
00:32:45.380 Haven't they killed like seven people in Dubai?
00:32:48.560 Yes.
00:32:49.460 I mean, we've had seven of our soldiers.
00:32:52.960 I think that's the latest count that I heard was seven.
00:32:55.620 Seven.
00:32:56.240 They've had seven citizens killed in Dubai.
00:32:59.320 That's a pretty big deal.
00:33:00.680 It is. And it's tough to support a country that's doing that to you. So I guess that's probably not really surprising that the Arab world is starting to turn on them.
00:33:10.560 Let me play the American think tank that is Joy Reid.
00:33:16.060 Oh, geez.
00:33:16.900 Play her view here on Iran.
00:33:21.640 Our regime has secret police. They have secret police.
00:33:24.020 Our regime is oppressing women, taking away abortion rights, taking away women's rights in like 26 states, some states where they're trying to have the death penalty for having an abortion.
00:33:34.260 They also oppress women. They have the highest rate of women who are in STEM careers.
00:33:40.120 We're kicking women out of the military, out of university.
00:33:44.160 We're saying that DEI means women can't be hired for high positions in the sciences.
00:33:48.760 we so we're we're marginally better and we're doing it for christianity they're doing it for
00:33:53.420 islam right so it's like we don't get told those things because it would take it would it would
00:33:57.560 take away the kind of american exceptionalism narrative i don't think i've ever heard anybody
00:34:04.420 that wrong in one sentence i know i mean it just went on and on it was a run-on sentence so there
00:34:09.780 was a lot to to digest there but she was wrong on everything we're marginally better on women
00:34:16.880 let's have a conversation with the women of the middle east right let's have a conversation with
00:34:22.220 the women who are in the streets here in america celebrating that are iranian celebrating what
00:34:29.800 we're doing over in iran and let's have let's talk to those people joy let's see what they say and
00:34:35.280 compare america to the middle east do you see the the video of the iranians celebrating in iran
00:34:42.820 Yeah.
00:34:43.360 When we were bombing, they were still in their homes, and you could hear the celebrating, and somebody recorded it.
00:34:49.120 It was, I think, like the night or maybe two nights after the original bombing campaign, and they were celebrating the death of the Ayatollah then because they're so done with what's going on there.
00:35:01.160 What I'm waiting for, and I hope we get to see this, I'm waiting for when the president or whoever says, go, go out in the streets.
00:35:09.520 Tonight, go out in the streets.
00:35:11.100 Yeah.
00:35:11.260 And they go out to protest in the streets, and as they're walking down a street, you see the IRGC at the end of the street, and then a drone flies over the top of the crowd and blows up the IRGC.
00:35:26.380 You do that one time, and that changes the world.
00:35:32.060 Nobody's ever done that before.
00:35:33.180 That would be game-changing historically.
00:35:35.740 Nobody's ever done that before.
00:35:36.740 but you imagine irgc would crap their pants anytime there was anybody out on the street
00:35:42.660 you do that a couple of times oh really you're gonna you think you're gonna round these people
00:35:46.620 up yeah we're here yeah i mean that oh it sent quite a message quite a message the iranian people
00:35:52.600 too yeah yeah yeah yeah that we really are standing with them yeah i wonder if it's gonna happen
00:35:59.120 have you been watching cuba i've been listening to the president on cuba what do you think's
00:36:04.220 going to happen there? I guess we're going to overthrow Cuba as well. I mean, is there a single
00:36:12.060 country on the planet that we're not going to overthrow right now? China. China? China. We won't
00:36:18.280 overthrow China. Yeah, that's not going to happen. Are you pretty sure? I'm pretty sure that's not
00:36:21.660 going to happen. I'm pretty sure. Russia, not going to happen. All right. So there's two countries
00:36:25.600 we're not going to overthrow. Yeah, so we're not doing them all. And that's what makes it a little
00:36:30.120 more difficult is that we're talking i mean we just did venezuela we're talking we basically
00:36:36.120 take it over greenland but we're not leaving chaos in the wake yeah that that's true i mean that's
00:36:42.020 that's the difference between george bush and all of these wars yeah we left chaos in the wake
00:36:47.200 because we said you're we're gonna get we're saying you're gonna that leader out yeah and
00:36:54.840 then we're not even picking the leader and i can get behind that i i can't um i can't get behind
00:37:02.160 nation building again oh no i can't either like so if that's what's ahead in iran i'm not ready
00:37:09.900 for that you look 20 years ahead if this works 20 years ahead does this look like what it used
00:37:18.680 to look like when america was just picking the leaders for these countries and saying you're in
00:37:23.180 charge you're in charge you're in charge have we gone back to that jeez i i hope not i hope not
00:37:30.780 it's hard to imagine the alternative though because we've never done it the right way i mean
00:37:36.420 when was the last time we we did this the right way what is the right way um win the war and leave
00:37:43.720 oh yeah yeah yeah we've never done that we've never done that world war ii maybe uh but you
00:37:50.540 world war ii that was still there it was persia yeah that was that was partly us going you know
00:37:55.740 what the shaw he's the guy and we laughed yeah yeah so i don't know it just doesn't work out
00:38:03.100 well it's gonna be interesting to see all this work out isn't it it is hopeful more hopeful than
00:38:09.140 you were i am because because you know i think trump is really trying to do it the right way
00:38:14.160 yeah so i think the thing that happened yesterday with jd vance uh on the the fraud thing fraud
00:38:20.080 thing oh my god that's great yeah i got something on that i think trump's a genius it just an
00:38:26.400 absolute genius way he played that yesterday um but i think that's the 2028 that's that's the
00:38:33.420 that's the rabbit out of the hat i think they are going to find so much fraud in these states
00:38:38.940 democrat fraud that they are just it's going to be overwhelming and everybody's going to go well
00:38:44.100 can't vote for those guys because look at what they're doing right because eventually some number
00:38:48.980 I think pisses the American people off.
00:38:50.660 I don't know what that number is,
00:38:51.820 but I think there's some number
00:38:53.440 that they have taken and stolen from you.
00:38:56.940 I hope there is a number.
00:38:58.660 I mean, there's got to be a number.
00:39:00.460 We've been pretty okay with pretty high numbers.
00:39:03.600 I know, I know.
00:39:04.880 I hope there is a number where we say, okay.
00:39:07.320 Okay, enough, enough.
00:39:08.920 Now somebody's got to pay for that.
00:39:10.160 Stop stealing from us.
00:39:11.420 All right, Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed, thanks.
00:39:13.780 America's about to celebrate its 250th birthday,
00:39:16.140 two and a half centuries since a group of people
00:39:17.980 decided that freedom was worth building an entire country around. Anniversaries, you know, are
00:39:23.140 exciting. Now, what do we do next? The direction of this country is being decided right now in our
00:39:30.840 culture, our economy, even in the companies we choose to support. And most wireless companies
00:39:35.140 don't care what you believe. They just want your monthly payment. Patriot Mobile was built
00:39:40.480 differently. For more than 12 years, they stood with Americans who believe freedom is worth
00:39:45.180 defending, helping support the Christian conservative movement when a lot of other
00:39:48.700 companies couldn't. In fact, they're co-sponsoring the Sea to Shining Sea event on Ellis Island on
00:39:54.540 May 2nd with Moms for Liberty and the American Journey experience. I will be there. The function
00:39:59.700 on all three major, they function on all three major U.S. networks. So you're getting the same
00:40:06.620 coverage that you have now. You're probably going to get a better price. You get better service and

00:40:31.080 most of us don't spend a lot of time thinking about what may or may not be in our tap water
00:40:45.640 you turn the faucet on you fill a glass and you assume it's fine and it's been that way all of
00:40:49.960 our lives right right right well when you were a kid you didn't even think about you know filling
00:40:55.520 your water from a glass from the tap with water of course not and maybe you haven't as an adult
00:40:59.860 either but there are studies looking at what is it atrazine that is a common agricultural pesticide
00:41:04.880 you know there are all sorts of weird things that happen with animals of this stuff and it's known

00:46:15.520 this is the glenn beck program glenn beck is on well today is the day that the save america act
00:46:25.580 is actually supposed to be presented for debate why has this happened why is this stalling why
00:46:33.300 something this popular is not easy to get through well i'll tell you um data republicans started
00:46:42.420 tracing something i think it was last week and i was following her and ricky reached out and said
00:46:49.040 hey would you kind of put all this together and write a uh an essay uh on this for glennbeck.com
00:46:57.660 so she did we just published it it is really good i want to take you through it you'll understand
00:47:02.360 how this system works in a way you didn't even know you just even know and it will explain
00:47:08.740 why the people in Congress are just saying, no, it can't be done. It can't be done. It's too hard.
00:47:18.340 Is it? Wait until you see what we found behind the curtain with Data Republican.
00:47:24.520 That's coming up next. First, let me tell you about my Patriot supply. Sometimes, you know,
00:47:27.920 normal life just makes it too comfortable. You go to work, you come home, you run the errands,
00:47:33.320 you know, you need to run most days. You know, it's a familiar pattern. Every now and then,
00:47:37.780 something happens that reminds you that the routine can quickly change a big storm rolls
00:47:43.540 rolls through the power goes out stores are closed or picked over and all of a sudden people are
00:47:49.000 driving around town trying to think find things they just always assumed you know would be there
00:47:53.380 that's when um that's that's really the moment when a lot of people wish they had prepared a
00:47:58.320 little earlier but you'll be prepared call my patriot supply if you haven't already they built
00:48:03.940 their entire mission around helping people just take a few simple steps. So if life does get
00:48:08.200 disrupted for a while, you're not scrambling to figure out what to do next. When you've taken
00:48:13.360 care of the basic, those moments really, they don't feel like a crisis. If you've been thinking
00:48:20.360 about it, been thinking about getting prepared, now is the time. Go to preparewithglenn.com.

00:48:33.440 There was a time in this country where corruption, I think, required a meeting in a dark room
00:48:43.760 and everybody had to be smoking cigars, you know, the doors were closed, the voices were
00:48:48.900 lowered, and money changed hands.
00:48:50.860 That's corruption.
00:48:52.560 If you wanted to control power, you had to hide it.
00:48:58.700 But that's no longer necessary for a couple of reasons.
00:49:01.540 One, we don't seem to care.
00:49:03.440 I mean, how much money has to be stolen from you, the taxpayer, before you start to care about the corruption that's going on?
00:49:11.620 Data Republican has just published something at glenbeck.com that shows, well, it's also because corruption in the system doesn't technically have to be corruption.
00:49:24.840 It runs on alignment.
00:49:27.620 And once you see it, it's hard to unsee it.
00:49:31.700 The Save America Act is what has brought this to light.
00:49:35.580 That's just a proof of citizenship vote.
00:49:37.620 That's it.
00:49:38.100 It's not radical.
00:49:39.020 It's not experimental.
00:49:40.040 It's not fringe.
00:49:41.420 83% of Americans support it.
00:49:43.540 84% in another poll.
00:49:45.640 Republicans, independents, even the majority of Democrats.
00:49:48.940 The House passed it, and in any sane system, that bill gets debated in the Senate, and it's passed.
00:49:57.480 It gets a vote, and then the president signed it.
00:50:00.980 But it may not get a vote.
00:50:05.340 And we have been told before a fight had even begun, it's already over.
00:50:11.180 There's no chance. Dead on arrival. Move along. Nothing to see here.
00:50:14.760 Wait a minute. What? Why?
00:50:17.240 You remember hearing that and thinking, why?
00:50:21.960 Most people are still saying, why?
00:50:24.860 That didn't come from a protest.
00:50:27.660 It didn't come from the voters.
00:50:29.240 80% of us are all for it.
00:50:32.160 So where did that come from?
00:50:36.380 Data Republican shows it comes from a newsletter.
00:50:40.260 It's called Punchbowl News.
00:50:43.740 This is a name pulled from the secret service code for the capital, Punchbowl.
00:50:50.660 The publication, Punchbowl News, I never heard of.
00:50:55.360 Most Americans have never heard of this, and you'll understand why here in a minute.
00:50:59.240 But everyone in Washington on Capitol Hill, they read it.
00:51:03.600 Every congressional office, nine out of 10 staffers read every day Punchbowl News.
00:51:10.760 Lobbyists, corporate policy teams, legislative directors.
00:51:15.240 How many people read it on a daily basis?
00:51:18.400 You ready?
00:51:20.140 7,500 people.
00:51:23.900 7,005.
00:51:25.980 That's the audience, not millions.
00:51:27.920 7,500. Now, if journalism were the business, the readers would be the customers, and there's not
00:51:39.220 enough to keep that in business. They're not the customers. 90% of Punchbowl's revenue comes from
00:51:47.980 corporate sponsorships. Wall Street, big tech, finance. Industries with billions on the line,
00:51:58.620 depending on what happens in the Senate, right? The subscribers, they're not the customers.
00:52:04.940 They're the product. Corporations are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars not to inform
00:52:12.180 the public, not to reach out and say, look at us, we're such a great, 7,500 people in
00:52:18.120 the real world make no difference at all, unless it's the right 7,500 people.
00:52:24.080 And that's what they're paying for, to reach that very specific group of people.
00:52:29.540 And this is a room where the staffers decide what matters, where senators are briefed,
00:52:34.900 where legislative priorities live or die before you even hear about them.
00:52:42.180 But everybody on the inside understands this.
00:52:45.520 The Senate Majority Leader doesn't just vote.
00:52:49.680 He decides what gets a vote.
00:52:51.880 He decides what lives and what will never reach the floor.
00:52:57.180 So when a bill like Save America comes along with overwhelming public support,
00:53:02.360 it doesn't need to be defeated.
00:53:05.580 It just needs to be declared unrealistic.
00:53:09.020 and that's exactly what happened in punch bowl news and once that label is applied the machine
00:53:16.640 does all the rest a reporter just has to write no path forward to this a leader says we just don't
00:53:23.820 have the votes and before a single senator is forced to stand and be counted the people who
00:53:30.080 shape washington's daily reality move on meetings aren't scheduled pressure isn't applied momentum
00:53:36.700 disappears, not because the people rejected the bill, but because the system never allowed it to
00:53:43.360 exist. Now, here's the part that should really bother you, and not because it's illegal,
00:53:50.360 because it's not illegal. Nothing about this is illegal, not even that it's coordinated.
00:53:58.800 What really should bother you is it works perfectly without either of those things.
00:54:05.200 The same corporations funding the news environment are funding the campaigns.
00:54:12.340 The same publication shaping the daily conversation is funded by the same interest that benefit from that conversation.
00:54:21.520 The same senators reading the conventional wisdom every morning built their careers in that same ecosystem.
00:54:29.720 Nobody has to pick up the phone.
00:54:31.500 Nobody has to issue an order.
00:54:32.760 Nobody has to break the law.
00:54:35.200 Because everyone is already operating inside the same set of incentives.
00:54:41.480 This is sick.
00:54:46.000 It's not a conspiracy.
00:54:48.220 It's a business model.
00:54:51.240 And business models don't fail because of scandal.
00:54:55.200 They succeed because they don't need one.
00:55:00.440 Now you're in this story as well.
00:55:02.600 Whether you know it or not, you're in it.
00:55:05.200 you're not going to like this.
00:55:08.640 Your representative, Congress,
00:55:11.320 spend over a million dollars of your money
00:55:15.420 to be in that 7,500 people group.
00:55:22.720 Over a million dollars of your tax dollars
00:55:25.860 to buy access to Punchbowl News.
00:55:30.060 They pay to be in the room with your money.
00:55:34.480 You fund the subscription.
00:55:37.600 You paid the cover charge.
00:55:40.200 But you're not invited inside.
00:55:42.480 You have no idea.
00:55:47.840 There's so many divides in America, but there are a few really important ones.
00:55:51.920 And this is the modern divide in America that really counts.
00:55:55.960 It's not left versus right.
00:55:57.520 It's not Republican versus Democrat.
00:56:00.020 at, it's those inside the room versus those outside the room.
00:56:07.940 Inside the room, consensus is manufactured.
00:56:12.240 Outside the room, you're just told, what's possible?
00:56:15.580 This isn't possible.
00:56:16.780 This is just not possible.
00:56:18.140 Why?
00:56:18.700 It's just not.
00:56:20.040 Why?
00:56:20.760 It's just not.
00:56:22.080 Why?
00:56:22.920 It's just not.
00:56:24.920 You people don't get it.
00:56:26.440 No, because we don't get punchbowl news.
00:56:30.020 But inside the room, priorities are decided before debate. Outside the room, you're told the debate already happened. And if you're wondering why something supported by 80% of the country can vanish without a vote, now you know.
00:56:48.300 And that's not the system failing. It's working exactly as it was designed.
00:56:54.860 So the question isn't what happened, because now we know.
00:57:03.640 The question is, what are you going to do about a system where you paid for the seat, but you were never meant to get one?
00:57:16.040 Thank you, Data Republican. Read this whole article at glennbeck.com right now.
00:57:21.260 glennbeck.com all of it is exposed this is why it was just decided and we were like when did
00:57:28.360 they decide this it was decided in the pages and she tracks it all down and shows you all of the
00:57:34.240 receipts at glennbeck.com by the way she also has a new book out she is so good you don't know who
00:57:40.260 data republican is she is um deaf and mute and uh somebody who is just relentless she was in high
00:57:50.500 tech, relentless. She started just digging, uh, for, you know, money trails and boy has she found
00:57:58.640 the money trails. Um, she's going to, she's going to play a very important role. I think in the
00:58:03.800 saving of this country. Anyway, you can pre-order her new book, unelected, how you paid a sinister
00:58:10.700 elite to take over America unelected her new book. You can pre-order it now at amazon.com.
00:58:16.460 All right. Every society eventually has to answer a simple question. You know, when somebody is in
00:58:23.560 a moment of real need, who shows up? When a person is scared, overwhelmed, doesn't know what to do
00:58:28.580 next, who's there? Who's there to offer help and who's there to offer pressure? For thousands of
00:58:35.540 women every year, that moment comes when they find out that they're pregnant and they are completely
00:58:40.220 unprepared for what comes next. The first voice they hear can make a huge difference. That's why
00:58:46.320 pre-born partners with pregnancy clinics all across the country, and their goal is simple.
00:58:50.820 Make sure women have a chance to see an ultrasound of their baby, to talk to somebody who cares about
00:58:56.760 them and their future. Because when a mom sees the heartbeat for the very first time, something
00:59:02.400 changes. Suddenly, this is not an abstract decision anymore. It's a moment of connection.
00:59:08.720 And in many cases, that moment is what leads to a mom choosing life. Just $28 provides one
00:59:16.080 ultrasound 140 helps five moms and every dollar helps save babies and share hope to donate dial
00:59:22.140 pound 250 say the keyword baby pound 250 keyword baby or go to preborn.com slash back sponsored
00:59:27.860 by preborn 10 seconds station now let me give you the next story um that is connected
00:59:45.360 by april 2020 u.s intelligence knew something explosive china had gained access to american
00:59:57.820 voter registration data across multiple states not ballots but names addresses driver's license
01:00:06.220 partial social security numbers think of this how dangerous this is they have your name address
01:00:12.640 driver's license, and social security number. Do you know what could be done by fraud alone?
01:00:19.640 This is the kind of data you don't need to change a vote. You need it to influence vote,
01:00:26.240 to impersonate, to target, to manipulate. And they didn't just take it. They analyzed it.
01:00:33.580 China took it. They studied it. They mapped American voters like a battlefield. When you
01:00:39.700 have this kind of information, they can influence what you read, what you see all the time.
01:00:48.140 Here's the part that's really frustrating. Our government knew this in 2020. There were clear
01:00:54.300 intelligence reports that we're just finding out now. In 2026, there were briefings. There was even
01:01:01.640 a presidential daily briefing that talked about it. Congress wasn't told. The American people
01:01:08.520 weren't told and according to whistleblowers now even the president of the united states wasn't
01:01:13.620 fully informed but i don't think that guy knew his shoes were on at times the reports were blocked
01:01:19.540 they were buried they were hidden and at the same time you were told something very different
01:01:24.320 you were told this election is the most secure in history there is no real foreign interference to
01:01:32.160 worry about, so don't question it. How is that possible? How is that possible? China is, is,
01:01:41.900 not was, is harvesting voter data. Chinese-linked groups are running influence campaigns. Not was,
01:01:51.700 are. Thousands of fake driver's licenses are being seized, mostly from China. And an FBI
01:01:59.800 intelligence report raising concerns about fraudulent mail-in voting schemes that's pulled
01:02:05.580 back told to be deleted and the day after testimony
01:02:11.760 day after testimony said nothing to see here nothing happened no there's nothing happening
01:02:19.660 let me be clear about something
01:02:22.880 there is no smoking gun like this the voting machines were hacked not like this that's not
01:02:33.260 the story this story is much more dangerous than that because you don't need to hack a machine
01:02:39.140 when you can hack people here's here's the question that our press should be asking
01:02:46.420 how is it we can secure our nuclear weapon systems how is it we can secure our military networks
01:02:56.180 our swift global banking system our intelligence infrastructure all around the world but we cannot
01:03:04.640 secure my id and my vote don't tell me it's too complicated don't tell me it's too expensive
01:03:12.280 don't tell me it's impossible we put a rover on mars we track trillions of dollars across
01:03:19.940 continents in milliseconds milliseconds we can verify your identity to open a bank account
01:03:27.460 board a plane buy a house but voting that's too hard what
01:03:31.580 no it's not that we can't secure it it's that for some reason and maybe i should
01:03:37.660 check punch bowl news for some reason the people in charge don't want it secured
01:03:42.260 Which leads to the only question that matters.
01:03:47.220 Why?
01:03:49.140 Why hide this intelligence from Congress?
01:03:54.980 Why keep the public in the dark?
01:03:58.440 Why fight basic safeguards?
01:04:01.260 Why resist voter ID?
01:04:03.920 Why resist citizenship verification?
01:04:06.700 Chain of custody protections.
01:04:08.540 look so it's the save america act is not a silver bullet it will not fix everything
01:04:15.000 but it has done something critical it says at a minimum you have to prove you're a citizen to vote
01:04:22.500 you have to show identification well is that identification coming from china
01:04:26.860 we have to treat the vote as the sacred right that it is that's not a radical that that's not
01:04:34.880 a radical idea. That's baseline civilization. Not left or right. It's about whether you believe
01:04:44.040 in self-government at all. Because if foreign governments can access foreign data, if intelligence
01:04:50.320 is hidden from Congress and oversight, if the system resists basic security, then you don't
01:04:58.180 have a republic you have a system where people are are asked to trust but never allowed to verify
01:05:05.440 trust yet verify you you have a system you can't question and that is a system you no longer
01:05:13.560 control so again not as a republican not as a democrat but as an american
01:05:19.240 we should be asking what is it they are afraid of
01:05:24.620 what is it they are protecting
01:05:29.300 what is it they are hiding
01:05:33.100 because that was supposed to be the most secure election
01:05:37.860 in all of American history
01:05:40.020 we knew it wasn't
01:05:41.200 but now we know
01:05:43.340 they also knew
01:05:45.300 they were hiding it
01:05:49.600 they were lying about
01:05:52.380 are really our biggest enemy, China.
01:05:58.520 Hacking all of our information,
01:06:02.080 hacking the information of citizens,
01:06:05.300 the voting information,
01:06:08.780 you know, information is power.
01:06:12.880 Knowledge is power.
01:06:15.820 You don't have the knowledge.
01:06:17.980 You're not getting the information.
01:06:20.240 But guess who's hacking into it?
01:06:22.380 China is getting all of your information, all of the knowledge of you.
01:06:29.480 What kind of power have we given China?
01:06:34.260 And what kind of power are our own politicians trying to preserve by not protecting you?

01:07:12.420 You know, most people don't realize how much of their financial life is decided by one number, the interest rate.
01:07:18.580 You know, it doesn't look like much when you see it written on paper, 4%, 6%, 8%, few digits, but that number decides how high your payment actually goes, you know, towards your future, how much of it disappears into interest.
01:07:34.420 You know, a loan, a small change in that rate can mean tens of thousands of dollars one way or the other, yet people sign the mortgage or debt agreements without really having somebody walk them through what those numbers mean or what the other options might be.

01:08:23.700 Join glennbeck.com slash torch to see it all.
01:08:26.540 Uh, Jason, I'd like you in on this, uh, if possible.
01:08:46.520 Jason, our head researcher, um, and he watches over, you know, global military.
01:08:54.780 He used to be in military intel.
01:08:58.400 There's something that has just happened that is remarkably historic.
01:09:06.860 I want to read it to you.
01:09:09.480 President Trump, this comes from the Director of National Intelligence and National Counterterrorism Center, Joseph Kent.
01:09:17.560 uh president trump after much reflection i've decided to resign from my position as director
01:09:23.400 of the national counterterrorism center effective today i cannot in good conscience support the
01:09:29.240 ongoing war in iran iran posed no imminent threat to our nation and it is clear that we started this
01:09:36.820 war due to pressure from israel and its powerful american lobby i know this is this is
01:09:47.220 so damaging. This is, this is Pentagon Papers stuff. This is as important as the Pentagon
01:09:54.260 Papers. This is going to possibly change the course of America. I support the values of
01:10:02.340 foreign policies that you campaigned on in 16, 2020, 2024, which enacted, you enacted in your
01:10:08.420 first term. Until June of 2025, you understood that wars in the Middle East were a trap that
01:10:13.200 robbed America of the precious lives of our patriots and depleted the wealth and prosperity
01:10:17.200 of our nation. In your first administration, you understood better than any modern president how
01:10:21.140 to decisively apply military power without getting us drawn into a never-ending war.
01:10:25.500 You demonstrated this by killing Soleimani and defeating ISIS. Early in this administration,
01:10:31.160 high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a
01:10:37.580 misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your American first platform and sowed pro-war
01:10:44.080 sentiments to encourage a war with Iran. This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing
01:10:51.420 that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States. This is incredible. You can say a lot of
01:10:58.860 things, but to say that Donald Trump is a dupe and has been duped by a foreign power because he
01:11:06.080 wasn't smart enough to figure it out is absolutely insane insane um it deceived you uh that you
01:11:17.800 should strike now when there was a and that there was a clear path to a swift victory this was a lie
01:11:24.840 and it is the same tactic the israelis used to draw us into a disaster iraq war that cost our
01:11:32.300 nation, the lives of thousands of our best men and women, we cannot make this mistake again.
01:11:38.280 This is going to set the world on fire. As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as
01:11:45.020 a gold star husband who lost my beloved wife, Shannon, in a war manufactured by Israel,
01:11:51.620 I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit
01:11:56.700 to the American people, nor justifies the cost of American lives.
01:12:01.260 I pray you will reflect upon what you are doing in Iran and who we are doing it for.
01:12:06.900 The time for bold action is now.
01:12:09.280 You can't, no you can't, you can reverse course and chart a new path for our nation.
01:12:13.540 You can't allow, you can't, or you can allow us to slip further toward decline and chaos.
01:12:19.560 You hold the cards.
01:12:21.140 It was an honor to serve in your administration and to serve our great nation.
01:12:25.280 Joseph Kent. This is a senior official in intelligence saying in real time that the
01:12:35.140 United States has entered a war under false pretenses, that Israel got us into the first
01:12:42.500 war in Iraq, and now they duped the American president into fighting this war.
01:12:49.180 this is going to fracture public trust this is the worst letter that could be done
01:12:57.920 um that i have ever seen if you want to hold uh if you're if you're if you're trying to win an
01:13:05.940 election this is the worst thing um our allies now are going to be questioning our judgment
01:13:12.840 our enemies are going to exploit this like crazy the war effort now if you don't think you have
01:13:21.440 given aid and comfort to iran you just have you've told them exactly what i'm telling you right now
01:13:28.700 it's going to be bad it's going to be bad i don't know how you survive things like this because
01:13:34.340 This guy has just taken gasoline and thrown tanks of it into a bonfire that was already burning.
01:13:43.580 And that fire that is burning is not the Islamic fires, but the Jews are bad fires.
01:13:54.960 this is probably the most serious break internal breaks over a war decision in modern history
01:14:06.660 never seen anything like this um and there's going to have to be investigations on it and
01:14:15.380 And, you know, I hope we get to the truth on this.
01:14:21.640 But now we've just added that one to the fire.
01:14:26.700 It was already burning out of control, I thought.
01:14:29.780 Jason, your analysis on this?
01:14:32.060 I think that we need an immediate statement from D&I Tulsi Gabbard immediately to go into the details that they probably did not even want to go into at the moment.
01:14:44.000 but they going to have to now this is incredibly irresponsible and it needs to be cleared up
01:14:51.280 five minutes ago they need to do that they need to go into rapid damage control mode and explain
01:14:57.260 exactly every you know point by point encounter everything joe kent just said now i don't have
01:15:03.920 a problem with so joe kent has always he's always seemed to me to be kind of like a you know a very
01:15:09.660 libertarian uh voice within the administration yeah yeah um and and his wife dying uh in syria
01:15:15.740 uh i'm sure that pushed him further towards the the no war camp and i can get that i like having
01:15:22.180 you know an anti-bolton style group of people within that we need those voices but this is so
01:15:28.940 irresponsible you might as well just say that you know i read the protocols of the elders of zion
01:15:35.660 and you know the jews control the world he basically said basically said that he basically
01:15:40.140 said that jews control the united states of america come on i this is so irresponsible i i don't think
01:15:46.980 i've ever seen anything quite like this and the only reason i haven't do saying something like
01:15:51.280 this you might as well it's got to be an intention grab it's got to be i i don't know he's throwing
01:15:56.860 and again unlike the pentagon papers where's the evidence of this yeah nothing where there's no
01:16:04.220 evidence of this so he has just taken and this was my problem and i said this yesterday i've said
01:16:10.680 this every day since the war started i don't need more opinions i need more facts i'm tired of
01:16:16.820 opinions i want facts if this is true back it up with facts show me how this happened you know he's
01:16:27.680 made charges here that they deceived the president in believing that Iran, I'm sorry, have you ever
01:16:36.120 talked to the president of the United States? Do you, I mean, do you have any understanding of who
01:16:42.580 this guy is i have i can't imagine anyone being able to deceive him into uh you know hey go fight
01:16:59.120 iran i mean israel's war you might deceive him on hey there are some but i'd like to see the
01:17:06.220 evidence, you might be able to, with evidence, say, Mr. President, see the pictures that they
01:17:14.180 showed you here? See the stats that they showed you here? Here are the stats that say that's not
01:17:19.120 true. I could see somebody coming, a group of people coming into the Oval and briefing the
01:17:25.720 President and saying, Mr. President, here is the information. But I also believe somebody like Joe
01:17:30.960 Kenton, this is why he was important, a libertarian point of view, is important to go into the Oval
01:17:36.180 office, because that's when you go into the Oval Office and say, Mr. President, these things are
01:17:40.180 not true. Then the president would have said, I'm just guessing here, but I know Donald Trump well
01:17:46.360 enough to know he's not a dupe. That's when somebody like Joe Kent would have come in and
01:17:54.720 said, Mr. President, these things are wrong. And the president would have said, Joe, can you show
01:18:00.880 me the evidence that this is wrong. Can you prove that? Because I have this evidence over here,
01:18:08.020 and I don't want to go to war. I don't want to do that. He would have said that. I don't want
01:18:12.200 to do this, but I have this. Can you prove that to be wrong? No. Well, then, Joe, what do I do?
01:18:20.480 Do I take Joe's word for it, or do I take the evidence that has been presented by my own intel
01:18:30.360 that's exactly what the president would have done ricky i want to bring you in on this
01:18:36.100 yeah um one thing to point out is that i'm pretty sure vice president jd vance is aligned in his
01:18:44.760 foreign policy worldview with joe kent but what you don't hear from jd vance is it was an honor
01:18:49.880 to serve the president but also he's lying to you we are all lying to you so there's that and then
01:18:58.120 the other thing i'd like to know is who is pulling trump by the nose is it israel or is it the arab
01:19:05.600 leaders just in the last 24 hours we have headlines stating that several gulf states are urging trump
01:19:11.960 to keep going on iran and to fully dismantle them no so is no no no no that's not possible because
01:19:18.700 israel is doing this so they can destroy their arab neighbors um and keep them you know um keep
01:19:26.780 them under their toe that that's so that's not true there's none of those things actually happened
01:19:32.500 couldn't have do you have any evidence that those things happened ricky
01:19:35.860 don't get me started i didn't want to bring this story to you you do no you do have the evidence
01:19:45.180 you have the written word from those allies that are all arabs yes i have that do you have the
01:19:54.760 evidence to the other side that Israel is trying to do this war to destroy the Arab world. No,
01:20:03.380 you have an opinion. Well, I've got an ass and an opinion. They're both worth exactly the same
01:20:11.560 thing. They're not worth a damn thing. Give me the facts. That is the problem with this country.
01:20:22.340 You have too many people like me who are paid to give you an opinion and perspective on what the hell all of this means.
01:20:35.420 Unfortunately, there are so many of us that some people have to get a leg up on somebody else.
01:20:43.220 I've got to get more clicks.
01:20:44.460 I've got to get more advertisers.
01:20:45.980 I've got to get more followers.
01:20:47.220 I've got to get whatever it is.
01:20:48.620 And so they no longer attach themselves to facts.
01:20:53.080 I have some things that I think I know about this situation
01:20:57.760 that I think is really important,
01:21:02.460 but I'm not going to share them
01:21:04.540 because I don't have any facts to back them up.
01:21:09.000 I don't have any evidence to back it up.
01:21:12.280 I have gut feelings.
01:21:14.260 So Glenn, why don't you say it?
01:21:15.800 Because they're gut feelings.
01:21:18.620 they're not facts and when you're talking about the destruction of people when you're talking
01:21:25.920 about war and killing people when you're talking about possibility of world war three when you're
01:21:32.560 talking about dividing this nation into into two groups i hate them jews
01:21:39.740 and i just want to know what the truth is i don't want to get involved in anybody else's
01:21:48.620 When you're dividing us this hard on something this dark,
01:21:55.280 produce the damn evidence, Joe.
01:21:59.820 Produce the evidence.
01:22:01.600 If you're right, I'll stand with you.
01:22:05.580 But produce the damn evidence.
01:22:09.660 All you did was, while other people were just pouring gasoline over our entire nation,
01:22:17.380 all of our institutions.
01:22:20.240 You just sat in the corner just like,
01:22:22.000 I'm just going to flick matches.
01:22:23.640 I'm going to flick matches.
01:22:25.240 Let me tell you what I know,
01:22:26.640 but I'm not going to tell you how I know it.
01:22:28.540 I can't prove anything.
01:22:30.580 It's just my gut feeling.
01:22:34.460 Produce the evidence, Joe.
01:22:40.820 Back in a minute.
01:22:41.600 uh golly let me tell you about our uh our sponsor uh our sponsor is the burner launcher
01:22:51.800 you're driving home late one night long quiet stretch of highway you notice a car sitting on
01:22:57.200 the soldier on the shoulder with its hazard lights blinking one of those moments where you
01:23:01.220 pause for a second part of you wants to help somebody might be stranded but what do you do
01:23:07.440 I mean, you're going to pull over on the dark road, people you don't know, put you in a situation you didn't plan for, you slow down, you take a look, you have to decide whether to stop or not.
01:23:16.300 If you do, wouldn't you feel a lot better knowing that you had a way to protect yourself just in case?
01:23:21.700 It's a burner launcher.
01:23:22.840 It's a compact non-lethal device that fires Connecticut pepper projectiles designed to stop a threat and create distance without using an actual firearm.
01:23:32.280 It's legal in all 50 states, no permit required.
01:23:35.180 It's a way to have a practical layer of protection whenever you might need it.

01:25:03.420 you just joined us you don't know what i'm talking about um i'll give you the news here in just a few
01:25:10.460 minutes but a quick recap a senior intelligence official has just stepped forward um and made a
01:25:18.720 charge that is so sweeping, uh, about this war that if it is true, it could bring down the
01:25:28.820 country. I really believe that it is that devastating, absolutely devastating. Um,
01:25:37.940 And I don't believe it.
01:25:41.780 I think it is...
01:25:44.700 I'm going to hold on to my opinion for a few more minutes.
01:25:51.220 Let me make sure I'm sure of exactly the words that I want to use.
01:25:59.620 But this is a very dangerous moment.
01:26:03.160 Very dangerous moment.
01:26:05.400 May God save the Republic.
01:26:07.940 war affects supply chains and right now one of the most important shipping routes in the world
01:26:28.980 the Strait of Hormuz along Iran's southern border is under massive strain about 20 percent of the
01:26:35.520 world's oil passes through it. And when conflicts in that region happen, it is effectively closed
01:26:42.020 right now. Consequences will ripple out fast. Air freight costs have already soared by as much as
01:26:47.420 400%. Some shipping routes now require detours that add close to a million dollars to a single
01:26:53.240 voyage. And those costs are passed right along to you. Experts are warning that this could escalate
01:26:58.300 before it even starts to settle down. What happens the next time you need a prescription and the

01:28:19.180 Hello America
01:28:21.500 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program
01:28:24.000 There's a lot going on today
01:28:25.800 We are facing a
01:28:27.300 a whirlwind
01:28:28.700 of huge issues that all have to be decided and discussed,
01:28:33.600 but we need to be adults as we talk about them
01:28:35.720 and not bury our heads in the sand.
01:28:38.540 Since the 90s, I've been talking about the coming of AI,
01:28:41.880 and most people didn't even believe me,
01:28:43.960 and I had no credibility because I'm not a tech guy.
01:28:47.480 I'm just somebody who reads a lot,
01:28:50.640 and I can see the dots on the horizon
01:28:53.960 and put them together and see this is what it means.
01:28:57.800 I remember saying to Stu back in the 90s,
01:29:00.880 there's going to come a time where you will not be able to believe your eyes or your ears.
01:29:06.240 You'll be able to develop video and audio so well that you just will not know what's true or not.
01:29:12.480 And that'll happen sometime between 2020 and 2030.
01:29:15.500 And here we are.
01:29:16.600 You believe your eyes.
01:29:17.880 You know what's real, what's not anymore.
01:29:20.860 AI is here.
01:29:22.260 And we're doing something, and I don't know what's right, I should say that.
01:29:28.840 I don't know what's right, but I have gone into AI with my eyes wide open.
01:29:35.520 I know exactly what it could be, but I also know it is the most powerful tool that man
01:29:41.800 has ever come up with, and as long as you treat it like a tool and use it like a tool
01:29:47.000 and keep it in a toolbox, it's a powerful tool.
01:29:51.560 And if we don't use it, you're going to be left behind in such ways so profound and it's going to happen so fast that you will be Amish before you know it.
01:30:05.120 And I don't think that is necessarily the right answer either.
01:30:09.880 So what is it?
01:30:11.140 There is a new book.
01:30:12.220 I was at a fundraiser with Peter Swiser and he said, Glenn, have you read Code Red?
01:30:17.280 And I said, no.
01:30:18.820 When did it come out?
01:30:19.440 And he said, well, it comes out in a couple of weeks.
01:30:20.640 And I said, no, then I haven't read it because it's not out.
01:30:23.860 Anyway, it is Code Red, The Left, The Right, China, and the Race to Control AI.
01:30:30.320 And it was written by Wynton Hall.
01:30:33.360 And Peter said, Glenn, I think this is the most important book of the year.
01:30:38.500 And I have been reading it, and I would tend to agree.
01:30:42.620 Um, there was, you know, Elon Musk came out, said yesterday that, or came out on Sunday
01:30:49.620 and said, universal basic income is right around the corner.
01:30:54.200 They're talking now in the next 12 months to five years, 50% of our jobs going to start
01:31:02.500 disappearing.
01:31:04.140 Uh, that's going to change quickly.
01:31:05.760 So what do we do?
01:31:07.060 What should we be talking about?
01:31:08.760 Wynton is going to join me here in just a second.
01:31:11.000 First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
01:31:15.100 Some nations are forced to live with a permanent alertness.
01:31:18.280 Israel is one of those places.
01:31:19.880 Imagine sending your kids to school knowing that there are rocket shelters built into the building.
01:31:24.680 I was over in Israel, and a rocket was launched.
01:31:29.260 And I was with a mayor of some town.
01:31:32.600 I don't remember what it was.
01:31:35.480 And we were walking, and the alarms went off.
01:31:37.980 The sirens went off.
01:31:39.360 I said, what does that mean? He said, we got to get into the shelter. And there was a shelter. We were at a school. There was a shelter on the playground. These shelters are everywhere. Imagine, you know, playing kickball and you have to run into the bomb shelter and all the kids are in the bomb shelter and then they come back out and they start kickball again.
01:31:58.000 It is the most bizarre way to live your life.
01:32:01.440 They're not shelters everywhere they're needed.
01:32:04.380 And one of the things that the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews does
01:32:10.200 is to provide shelters, food, and comfort for those people
01:32:14.460 who are living under these kind of conditions every day.
01:32:17.680 Call 888-488-IFCJ if you'd like to give $45 Rush Lifesaving Essentials

01:32:35.880 Winton is a distinguished fellow
01:32:38.200 at Government Accountability Institute
01:32:40.360 with Peter Swiser.
01:32:42.020 He is also a former visiting fellow
01:32:43.940 at Stanford's Hoover Institution,
01:32:45.680 lives in Tallahassee with his family.
01:32:47.700 Where do we even begin, Winton?
01:32:49.340 I mean, you have covered all of it in this book.
01:32:52.340 Really, really well done.
01:32:53.960 Well, thank you, Glenn. Now, and you know, I want to thank you. I mean, you've been ahead on this issue so, so many years. And actually, it was your book, Propaganda Wars, that really focused my attention for Code Red on the deepfake political implications.
01:33:09.600 So thank you for all of that.
01:33:13.080 I think the thing to begin with is just really understanding for conservatives the importance of understanding that this is not hype.
01:33:22.780 And one of the problems I'm seeing a lot in the circles of these conversations is people say, you know, look, I've tried ChatGPT.
01:33:30.960 I got a hallucination.
01:33:32.460 It's not there yet.
01:33:34.500 That's not AI.
01:33:36.000 That's not AI.
01:33:37.180 That's right.
01:33:38.100 Right. Exactly. And so when you just have that kind of an understanding, that surface level,
01:33:44.620 you don't realize that there is so much more than just a simple chat bot. As you said,
01:33:50.940 Elon's saying there is a supersonic tsunami headed toward humanity. Now, when you hear that,
01:33:56.740 you either have to decide, is that all hype marketing to raise capital for investors,
01:34:01.400 or is one of the richest people that's ever inhabited the planet giving us a real warning
01:34:06.680 shot, I think that when you think of a tsunami, you know, and you're sitting on the beach
01:34:10.840 shore, the question is, you know, how long do you have to get ready and prepare? And
01:34:16.180 then what are the political power grabs that are about to happen? Because what I want people
01:34:21.400 to understand, particularly conservative Americans, is that whether you think it's all hype and
01:34:27.380 fear-mongering or whether it comes to fruition, it really doesn't matter from a political
01:34:33.400 perspective because the forces for redistribution and UBI, universal basic income, will weaponize
01:34:40.860 that fear to build public support one way or the other. I couldn't agree with you more. I absolutely
01:34:47.880 believe it is not hype. I think it's coming faster than anyone expected. I know it is,
01:34:56.660 But I don't believe it's hype. But even if it is, just think of the hype of global warming. This is the new global warming for any kind of, you know, it's laying the railroad tracks for any kind of policies like UBI, you know, socialized everything. This is building the railroad tracks right now and nobody sees it.
01:35:19.920 You are exactly right. And I call it a control grid, just as a metaphor. It's the ability to scan and ban what you say. We all know in the conservative movement what has happened with the Global Disinformation Index and demonetizing and delisting conservative media and silencing the president. That control grid remains.
01:35:43.340 And so right now, of course, they're going to play along, and there's a Republican House and Senate and White House and President Trump.
01:35:50.340 But the powers in Silicon Valley have been building this control grid and have been organized on these topics for many years.
01:35:56.800 Let me give you one example that I think is really striking.
01:36:00.620 So I spent two years deep diving into this world, and one that stood out to me.
01:36:05.180 In 2016, a young man went on a blog, and he said, I'd like to fund a study, and I want to give $1,000 every single month, and I want to give it to low-income people, and I want no strings attached, otherwise known as what you and I would call universal basic income, Glenn.
01:36:20.680 And he said, I want to see what will happen. Will they create new jobs? Will they just waste time?
01:36:27.620 And then he said, the reason I want to do this study is because I think in the future, technology is going to require some type of replacement income.
01:36:35.980 The young man who funded that study funded a longitudinal study, $60 million, put in $14 million of his own dollars.
01:36:44.100 And that young man's name was Sam Altman.
01:36:46.620 now why in 2016 is sam altman funding the largest ubi study in american history
01:36:54.780 six years before the front-facing arrival of chat gpt in november of 2022 it is because silicon
01:37:02.300 valley has viewed this technology as a way to remake and reset capitalism free markets the
01:37:09.180 entire economic structure what they would call a post-labor society and when you think of the
01:37:15.580 you know, Judeo-Christian Protestant work ethic. One of the things he said in that note, he says,
01:37:21.740 I think we will view it as silly that we ever considered work a fear of not being able to eat
01:37:28.780 a motivation for why you should work. I mean, that is the hinge of human motivation that we
01:37:34.760 have used. And certainly if you look at scripture, the idea of striving for economic flourishing for
01:37:40.660 your family. So they really are remaking the world. And the reality is they've been at this
01:37:45.540 a long time. You saw it coming early. I'm very concerned that people haven't on our side really
01:37:51.520 understood the 5D chess game and the speed with which this is happening. And that's why I called
01:37:57.520 it Code Red. Two reasons. One, an alert flare. And two, our side, the red team needs a code.
01:38:02.640 We need a set of principles of how we're going to get through this for our kids
01:38:05.520 and ourself and our country.
01:38:07.300 Hit that basically, just quickly,
01:38:10.160 because you really outline it in the book,
01:38:13.240 but how do we deal with this with our kids?
01:38:17.280 Glenn, I think the future is not teaching our kids
01:38:22.180 how to find jobs, but how to create them.
01:38:25.160 And that's one of the more hopeful parts of this AI era.
01:38:27.880 You will have superpowered for those people
01:38:30.960 who have fire in the belly for entrepreneurship,
01:38:32.880 a real opportunity to do way more with way less.
01:38:37.220 And so I would say there's three pieces for parents and grandparents.
01:38:41.360 Number one, I know you're very concerned about the erosion of critical thinking and education.
01:38:47.660 The trivium has served us for centuries, the trivium, logic, grammar, and rhetoric.
01:38:52.080 And I think that classical model of really building strong, independent minds that can
01:38:57.840 seek out truth and know when they're being spun and when they're actually dealing in
01:39:02.160 truth, that has served humanity for so long and we have to keep that. So that's your base layer
01:39:07.100 of your pyramid. Second layer is the entrepreneurial tools showing that your daughter or your son or
01:39:14.620 your grandchild, how to build a business regardless of whatever their passion or their
01:39:21.100 God-given calling is in their life. So they know how to set up an LLC. They know how to set up a
01:39:27.260 website they understand advertising those skills will be a great template that can that can move
01:39:33.080 with where where the world is going in ai and then the third layer is the ai tools because you
01:39:38.440 rightly said we don't get to opt out of this i mean i think one of the misconceptions people
01:39:42.900 think is oh i don't have to use ai first of all you already do use ai 99 of us use ai every single
01:39:48.900 day even though 64 of people don't know when they're using it how is that your weather apps
01:39:54.080 your streaming service, social media algorithms. And so if we're going to have to use it in a
01:40:00.160 modern world, we might as well learn to use it well. So I think if we have that mindset of strong
01:40:06.160 minds with the trivium, the entrepreneurial layer and the AI piece, that's the best way to build
01:40:11.500 moats for our children and grandchildren to really teach them how to create those jobs,
01:40:15.840 not just to how to fill out a resume. I have to tell you, I'm probably a year away from
01:40:21.120 the ai that i've been working on uh being even close to right um and i'm getting so much heat
01:40:28.420 from people they're like why are you using ai and don't you know yeah ai is evil and yada yada yada
01:40:33.360 and i'll never use ai and i i'm telling you this is uh what's what this is going to lead to
01:40:42.660 is a world where you're going to use ai whether you like it or not unless you're amish
01:40:49.400 you're going to use ai and it's going to be somebody else's ai just like we used the media
01:40:56.880 that was built by someone else and we were like oh well i don't need to be into me i've got the
01:41:02.000 three channels i got the networks abc nbc cbs and now i've got cnn and msnbc and it's all going to
01:41:08.640 be fine you're using something that somebody else is building and i'm telling you if the
01:41:13.540 conservative movement doesn't get on to ai i don't think you're ever going to catch up this time
01:41:21.580 you'll just be boxed out you just won't catch up the conservative movement must be involved in this
01:41:29.580 do you agree or disagree oh you are i'm grateful that you just said that and and we should say it
01:41:36.940 often. Look, the left would love nothing more than for conservatives to unilaterally disarm
01:41:44.100 with the greatest and most powerful information weapon ever devised by human minds and put on
01:41:51.240 the battlefield of ideas. I mean, so yes, on the one hand, we can lament this reality, but we have
01:42:00.560 to accept this reality. And I think that means understanding that this bullet train has already
01:42:05.900 left the station and we have to be on it and we have to really understand what i call the roses
01:42:11.940 of possibility that there and there are and i don't want to suggest that it's all doom but we
01:42:16.980 have to understand that we also have numerous landmines political new landmines that we are
01:42:22.160 going to have to learn how to navigate around and you can't do that if you don't understand
01:42:26.260 the technology so you're absolutely right glenn um and it and it's one of those buffers i mean
01:42:31.580 look, as conservatives, you know, we want to stand to thwart history yelling stop. But Buckley
01:42:37.080 wasn't saying, you know, that we stop technological innovation. He was saying we stop the erosion of
01:42:43.660 the diminution of the values that have instantiated, you know, human history for millennia. So I think
01:42:50.340 that we have to adopt these tools. And one of the things, though, that we really do need to
01:42:55.300 understand is just how woke and biased they are and how the left has very specific agenda for
01:43:02.560 weaponizing these tools against us oh and you get trump out of there and it is going to come back
01:43:09.420 with a vengeance you're just not going to understand it's coming with a vengeance the
01:43:16.120 minute he uh or the republicans leave um we're talking to wynton hall the name of the book
01:43:22.700 is Code Red, The Left, The Right, China, and the Race to Control AI by Wyndon Hall. You can get it
01:43:29.140 wherever you get your books. Go to Amazon and grab a copy. I want to talk to you about one more
01:43:34.040 thing. I got to take a one minute break. If I have time, I want to talk to you about AI God and the
01:43:38.300 coming crisis of meaning because it's a fabulous chapter. But I don't know if we have time because
01:43:43.300 I want to talk to you about war and the use of this with war and what the Pentagon is going
01:43:47.880 through right now. We'll talk about that in just a second. Give me 60 seconds and back to the
01:43:52.440 conversation first sleep is one of the strangest things about the human body when it's working
01:43:56.120 right you know you don't think about it at all you lay your head down night passes you wake up
01:44:00.460 ready for the day but when it's not working it starts affecting absolutely everything in your
01:44:04.900 life your energy drops your focus isn't what it should be even the small things during the day
01:44:09.500 start feeling harder than they need to be and you get grumpy when you go to bed honestly don't you
01:44:14.300 you you feel the problem in everything well z factor is not something to knock you out make
01:44:21.420 you groggy, make you feel heavy the next day. It's a different approach. It's a sleep supplement
01:44:26.120 from the makers of Relief Factor, and it's designed to support the kind of natural restorative sleep
01:44:31.420 that your body actually needs. That means not just falling asleep, but staying asleep and waking up
01:44:36.660 feeling like you actually rested. Right now, you can save 46% on your first order, just $19.95 for
01:44:42.100 a 30-day supply. Call 800-4-RELIEF, 800, the number four, relief, or visit relieffactor.com.
01:44:48.760 That's relieffactor.com, 10-second station ID.
01:45:01.480 I mean, the stuff about beating China with AI but not becoming China is so important, and the final chapter about God is so important.
01:45:11.660 But we know now that, you know, the Maduro raid and what's happening over in the Middle East right now, we know that our military is using AI.
01:45:22.560 Do you know how deeply that is being used and how do we balance this use of AI for keeping humans still the ones on the trigger, but also this techno surveillance state that is, I mean, there is no place in the world to hide?
01:45:45.720 No, that's exactly right.
01:45:47.640 It is a whole new world.
01:45:49.300 We've got to be coached up fast so that we can preserve our constitutional principles,
01:45:53.760 the values that we as Americans hold dear.
01:45:56.780 But at the same time that we give our soldiers, settlers, airmen, and marines,
01:46:01.080 and our military leadership the ultimate superiority on the battlefield possible.
01:46:07.120 So for the first part, on Maduro, Iran, all of that,
01:46:10.700 one of the things that people need to understand that I think
01:46:13.360 It's not nearly as cinematic as thinking of a Terminator with big old laser beam eyes and the rest of it, but is enormously useful, is AI that is able to do massive pattern recognition at scale, particularly for intelligence.
01:46:29.180 So when you're gathering all this intercepted communication, optics, imagery, audio, visuals, target locations, it would take teams of hundreds if not thousands of Intel officers months to sift and sort through that.
01:46:44.740 When you're talking about huge AI systems and deep learning and machine learning that can scan and go through that at warp speed, that really does give us a speed advantage.
01:46:54.780 Now, you made the right exact point, and we have to emphasize it, which is you have to make sure that you not just have human in the loop, but you have human override.
01:47:04.580 And so those generals, those commanders, they have to be the ones that are looking at that data assessment to figure out if that target needs to be hit.
01:47:12.740 But there is no question that it will help also to reduce civilian casualties and also get us out of forever wars because you're able to have battlefield advantage very quickly.
01:47:23.200 So there are upsides in this. The downsides, I think, are the obvious things, right? Which is when you start moving into fully autonomous AI weaponry, how do you make sure that the AI doesn't start to do things that are misaligned with human interests and even life? So it is a new matrix, and it's moving extremely fast. And you're exactly right. But I wanted to lay out here are the stakes, and here's what I think we need to do in this new AI warfare world.
01:47:52.880 Wynton, I'd love to have you back on again.
01:47:55.140 I think this is one of the most important things.
01:48:00.600 I mean, there's probably three or five topics now that are just critical, as you say, code red.
01:48:06.840 And this is one of them.
01:48:08.820 I'd love to have you back on.
01:48:09.840 Maybe we'll do a podcast or something long form.
01:48:12.180 Wynton Hall, the name of the book is Code Red, The Left, The Right, China, and the Race to Control AI.
01:48:18.640 This is a very important book.
01:48:21.160 Pick it up now.
01:48:22.320 wherever you get your books and begin to digest because it is coming faster than you can possibly imagine.
01:48:30.740 I think the war in Iran, what's happening right now, I think it would look wildly different, wildly different than it looks right now.
01:48:40.660 The difference is AI, and you don't even know it, but it's coming fast.
01:48:47.380 Wynton, thank you so much. Back with more in a minute.
01:48:52.320 let me share something a listener sent in recently they said a big storm rolled through
01:49:02.960 their area kind of takes out power lines knocks trees down and leaves the whole neighborhood in
01:49:06.940 the dark and soon the cell network was useless but they wrote the rapid radios kept me working
01:49:13.180 the entire time one button and they could talk instantly with family members miles away making
01:49:19.140 sure that everybody was safe and coordinated um and and could get things that needed to be done
01:49:24.940 done that's because rapid radios use a nationwide lte network which means you get coast-to-coast

01:50:23.600 slash torch to see this special thursday night
01:50:38.700 So, about an hour ago, news broke that we had a senior intelligence official, and I mean, senior, step forward and issue a statement.
01:50:57.960 It's not a quiet one.
01:50:59.920 In the statement, he makes charges so sweeping that it doesn't just question policy.
01:51:06.640 It questions the very legitimacy of war.
01:51:11.580 He has said in plain language that the United States was drawn into this war under false pretenses, and it was Israel that did it.
01:51:25.440 That alone is bad, but he didn't stop there.
01:51:30.420 He pointed the finger at Donald Trump, saying that he was duped,
01:51:36.960 and he was duped by, of course, you know who, the Jews.
01:51:48.040 Anti-Semitism is not theoretical.
01:51:51.380 This is actual.
01:51:53.220 It is rising.
01:51:54.220 It is visible.
01:51:55.580 It is dangerous.
01:51:56.940 and he has chosen to frame his accusation
01:52:01.300 in a way that risks pouring fuel
01:52:04.800 on something already burning.
01:52:07.980 And he did it without any facts at all.
01:52:11.080 Now the White House is responding.
01:52:13.460 I'll get to that here in a second.
01:52:20.540 But the cat's already out of the bag.
01:52:23.260 You don't put this one back in.
01:52:24.580 And, you know, this is not a small decision here that he made.
01:52:31.760 You know, it's not just a careless sentence here.
01:52:34.680 This is something that is going to echo for a long, long time.
01:52:39.440 Because we are currently arguing about them Jews.
01:52:47.140 And I don't understand it.
01:52:49.160 I understand you can argue about Israel and everything else, and that is totally fine.
01:52:54.120 But it's different. This is different. And if you're going to make a claim about the United States being manipulated into war, if you're going to suggest that powerful interests, not just strategic mistakes, not just bad intelligence, but deliberate influence drove us into bloodshed, then you're no longer offering an opinion.
01:53:18.020 You are alleging a scandal of historic magnitude and the kind of scandal that, if proven, will not just end careers.
01:53:27.980 It will shake the presidency.
01:53:30.080 It will fracture our alliances, a force of reckoning that this country has not seen in generations.
01:53:37.260 And if it's true, then let the chips fall where they may.
01:53:43.020 This is the weight of what has been said.
01:53:46.160 And when something carries that kind of weight, I think there's a kind of a pretty good rule.
01:53:56.420 You don't make an accusation without bringing the evidence.
01:54:01.520 Not later, not eventually, not hinted at, now.
01:54:07.800 Because without evidence, something else happens.
01:54:11.180 Trust collapses, institutions fracture, and people, good people,
01:54:15.480 Look for somebody to blame.
01:54:19.180 And history is, you know, full of moments where fear and anger were given a target.
01:54:30.420 Those moments don't end well.
01:54:34.000 They never have.
01:54:36.260 If he is right, if he can prove that this nation was led into war through deception and pressure,
01:54:43.940 then he has a duty to lay that proof before the American people immediately and not for politics
01:54:51.220 not for positioning not for a book but because the truth in that case would be a matter of
01:54:58.660 national survival and if he cannot produce the proof then what he's done is so incredibly
01:55:07.780 reckless and dangerous. He has released a charge powerful enough to divide our nation in half.
01:55:17.680 He has introduced suspicion and whispers where clarity is needed. He has taken a moment of
01:55:28.040 real danger and he has taken nitroglycerin and strapped it to a paint shaker.
01:55:37.780 There are times that you speak, and there are times that you do not speak.
01:55:52.660 Even if you have all kinds of suspicion, unless you have proof, you do not speak,
01:56:02.300 because that is a form of recklessness at a biblical scale.
01:56:08.840 This is not a cable news segment.
01:56:12.360 This is not a policy disagreement.
01:56:15.520 This is the kind of claim that can unravel a country if it's true.
01:56:21.440 It can wound it deeply if it's not.
01:56:28.680 The line, I think, is really simple, and it's non-negotiable.
01:56:32.300 Bring the evidence.
01:56:35.360 Lay it out.
01:56:36.840 Let it be examined.
01:56:37.960 Let it stand or fall in the light.
01:56:41.940 You want to say Donald Trump was duped by the Jews.
01:56:46.720 Bring the evidence.
01:56:49.240 I'll stand with you if it's true.
01:56:57.760 But bring the evidence.
01:57:02.300 And why did it take you this long to say something?
01:57:05.880 Why?
01:57:06.680 Were you hoping that it would just go away in a few days?
01:57:09.480 So it was okay if it was a few days?
01:57:11.560 I don't understand.
01:57:14.040 When the stakes are this high, the American people deserve more than accusations.
01:57:19.740 They deserve the truth, fully, completely, and without delay.
01:57:23.560 Now, the White House has come out, and they have made a statement about Joe and his volcano.
01:57:34.360 Ricky, what is the White House saying now?
01:57:38.000 To clarify, the White House hasn't officially said something.
01:57:41.820 What they did do is they, yes, they retweeted a former White House staffer who said Joe Kent is a crazed egomaniac who was often at the center of national security leaks.
01:57:52.040 um he also said he spent all of his time working to subvert the chain of command and undermine the
01:57:57.520 president it's not some principled resignation he just wanted to make a splash before getting
01:58:02.600 canned now the rapid response director for the white house retweeted that i assume in lieu of
01:58:07.860 the the white house being able and ready to make a formal statement that's on when he goes on
01:58:13.480 tucker's podcast this week don't answer that yeah he will be there maybe today maybe today
01:58:21.540 And this is, again, look, I am for the truth.
01:58:27.180 I want the truth.
01:58:29.000 Israel is not my country.
01:58:31.280 I have no horse in that race other than what I feel is the right thing on how to treat people.
01:58:42.280 But I don't like their policies.
01:58:46.060 I don't like their government, quite honestly.
01:58:48.220 I mean, they're very socialist.
01:58:49.900 I don't like it.
01:58:51.540 But I don't have to like it.
01:58:56.480 But I love the fact that people are saying, you know, Zionism is just as dangerous as Islamism.
01:59:03.460 It is?
01:59:05.260 Can we just think about that for a second?
01:59:07.000 If the Zionist, and I mean the crazy Zionist, got everything they wanted, what would the world be like?
01:59:15.340 It would be a world that Jerusalem or Israel would be a little bigger than it is now.
01:59:21.100 It would have all of the historic land.
01:59:24.120 It might even take some of, let's just be crazy, take some of it from the neighbors.
01:59:27.760 It would maybe oppress any neighbor that was trying to kill it.
01:59:31.940 And it would pass all kinds of laws to protect it and pass anti-Semitism laws and things that I'm not for.
01:59:41.000 It would do all kinds of stuff.
01:59:42.420 And it would work through pressure and negotiation, kind of like the U.S. State Department works right now.
01:59:49.780 because it would be its country
01:59:52.160 and it would be doing all it could
01:59:53.920 to get other countries to do its bidding.
01:59:57.380 That is if they got everything they wanted.
02:00:01.580 What would happen if Iran got its way?
02:00:06.240 It would be a global caliphate
02:00:08.860 and anyone who opposed it would be beheaded.
02:00:13.940 They would claim there are no more gays in the world
02:00:17.020 and they would kill them all.
02:00:18.440 They would marry your nine-year-old daughter off to some 40-year-old man.
02:00:24.620 So I don't think it's the same.
02:00:29.140 Look, you can oppose a war without hating Jews.
02:00:33.580 You can oppose Netanyahu without hating Jews.
02:00:36.940 You could say America shouldn't fight every conflict in the Middle East.
02:00:40.600 I agree with that, but you don't have to hate the Jews.
02:00:43.880 None of that is anti-Semitism.
02:00:46.620 That's foreign policy judgment.
02:00:50.820 Anti-Semitism is real.
02:00:52.940 And I'm not saying that Joe is an anti-Semite for saying these things.
02:00:59.420 I'm not saying that.
02:01:00.780 I'm saying he's making it really difficult because there are a ton of anti-Semites that are like,
02:01:08.160 see, I told you, the Jews are behind it all.
02:01:10.540 anti-semitism begins when jews stop being treated like human beings and start being treated like a
02:01:17.660 mythical explanation for everything when i oppose a policy it's fine unless that is that becomes
02:01:28.200 you know these people run everything when the criticism of a government becomes about are they
02:01:34.860 Jews, when Israel's not judged by the standards that no other nation is judged by, when a Jew
02:01:40.500 becomes not a neighbor or a citizen or a family, but a symbol where everything, this war is going
02:01:47.000 badly, you know why? The Jews. That's the line. That's the line. And you know what? We're confused
02:01:54.600 about that line right now. And you know why we're confused? Because Iraq left scars on us.
02:02:00.640 So did Afghanistan. Deep, deep scars. And that's absolutely fair. We should talk about that. Iraq taught Americans governments can oversell a war, blur the evidence, underestimate the cost, you know, and that lesson is absolutely real.
02:02:18.000 But the lazy version of that is poison.
02:02:23.640 That war was sold badly, so every threat is a fake.
02:02:30.000 And one ally has interests, and that ally therefore must be the puppet master of every American action.
02:02:40.460 Okay, really?
02:02:41.820 That's not wisdom.
02:02:43.320 That is trauma dressed up as sophistication.
02:02:46.340 That's what that is.
02:02:48.000 Iran threatened America and American forces for decades through proxies and terror.
02:02:53.840 Now, it doesn't prove automatically that every strike is wise, that this war is even wise.
02:02:59.880 But it does mean that the argument cannot honestly begin with what Joe says, there was no threat at all.
02:03:07.540 Serious people start with the truth, not a slogan that flatters their side, that there was a threat.
02:03:13.600 Now, was it something that we should have gone in and bombed?
02:03:17.320 that's open for a discussion as i said earlier i want to see the evidence
02:03:22.180 okay that's that's the truth that's the truth you have to ask yourself three questions
02:03:31.620 am i assigning collective guilt to a people am i applying a standard to israel that would never
02:03:38.580 apply to turkey or pakistan or jordan or china or to my own country am i following evidence or am i
02:03:44.380 reaching for the oldest temptation in politics, and that's just to make the Jew the grand
02:03:49.380 unifying answer to a very complicated world.
02:03:54.520 If you can answer those honestly, you can disagree and you can stay clean.
02:04:00.320 You can disagree forcefully and stay clean.
02:04:03.320 But once you tread into, it's because they run the world, really, who runs the world?
02:04:11.220 You're really telling me that the Jews run the world over the United States of America?
02:04:18.560 The Jews run the world over America and China?
02:04:23.080 Wow, that is a fabulous magic trick.
02:04:26.400 That the Jews somehow or another have a magic spell that they can make Donald Trump listen to him
02:04:32.640 when no one on the planet, maybe not even Melania, can make him listen?
02:04:39.420 What a magic trick that is.
02:04:41.220 They must have mystical powers.
02:04:44.200 I read about them in the Elders of Zion.
02:04:47.460 Back in a minute.
02:04:50.560 Your body is doing maintenance all the time while you're working, while you're sleeping, even while you're just sitting there listening.
02:04:56.860 You know, cells are repairing.
02:04:59.460 You know, our little systems inside our body are constantly trying to keep everything running the way it is supposed to.
02:05:05.440 and sometimes that process gets overwhelmed and inflammation builds up and muscles take longer to
02:05:10.440 recover than they used to and suddenly your body feels like it's working harder to do just the same
02:05:14.900 thing it's always done. Relief Factor has created something that can help you but that support your

02:06:02.600 Dividers can call us names
02:06:05.240 We just call each other
02:06:11.000 neighbor and friend
02:06:12.360 We'll be right back
02:06:28.060 This whole time, we've feared.
02:06:32.060 We fought against Islamic terrorism.
02:06:35.060 But the Islamist threat is even more terrifying than that.
02:06:40.060 They're here.
02:06:41.060 They've been here.
02:06:43.060 They've waited.
02:06:44.060 And faster than ever, they're making their moves.
02:06:47.060 They're Islamists.
02:06:49.060 Islamists want the United States to resemble Islamic republics in the Middle East.
02:06:55.060 We're living here to shift this country's political direction, engaging in dawah, and
02:07:10.820 dawah is essential.
02:07:11.820 And most of the Western world isn't even aware of what's happening.
02:07:16.260 As a doctor, I don't just treat symptoms.
02:07:18.940 Terrorism is a symptom.
02:07:19.940 The disease, the cancer, is political Islam.
02:07:22.980 It's incompatible with everything that America and the Western world stands for.
02:07:28.900 Honor violence, honor killings, child marriage.
02:07:32.680 We have this idea that, oh, we can't judge other cultures.
02:07:35.840 And it's happening in more ways than you could imagine.
02:07:38.860 This is economic jihad.
