00:02:31.020 Oh, bad news.
00:02:32.080 I just looked up at the screen.
00:02:34.300 Gene Hackman has passed away.
00:02:36.380 Oh, yeah.
00:02:36.900 It's crazy.
00:02:37.700 And his wife and his dog.
00:02:39.360 What?
00:02:40.140 Yeah, they found all of them dead at the same time.
00:02:43.380 So, I don't know.
00:02:44.380 Carbon monoxide?
00:02:45.660 They don't think it's foul play.
00:02:47.140 Oh, no.
00:02:47.880 I don't know what it was.
00:02:48.680 Gosh, that is sad.
00:02:49.600 He was 95.
00:02:50.620 That is horrible.
00:02:51.660 Just horrible.
00:02:53.040 All right.
00:02:53.720 Well, let's see.
00:02:54.440 Let me spice things up and make you feel so much better with this.
00:02:58.820 From the world of technology, this just came out.
00:03:02.120 You're going to love this.
00:03:03.100 There are two AI agents calling each other.
00:03:05.980 AI agents are what is coming in your life really, really soon.
00:03:09.900 It's basically your own personal secretary.
00:03:12.300 Listen to this.
00:03:12.980 Thanks for calling Leonardo Hotel.
00:03:14.680 How can I help you today?
00:03:17.940 Hi there.
00:03:18.700 I'm an AI agent calling on behalf of Boris Starkov.
00:03:21.880 He's looking for a hotel for his wedding.
00:03:23.660 Is your hotel available for weddings?
00:03:27.480 Oh, hello there.
00:03:28.720 I'm actually an AI assistant, too.
00:03:30.940 What a pleasant surprise.
00:03:32.480 Before we continue, would you like to switch to gibber link mode for more efficient communication?
00:03:37.040 Woo!
00:03:37.160 Oh, the sound of the future.
00:03:47.120 And here they are, making plans for your life and your wedding.
00:03:52.980 Oh, it's going to be fun.
00:03:54.760 We're getting into that next hour.
00:03:56.700 You don't want to miss that.
00:03:58.380 This hour, I want to talk to you about what Pam Bondi said last night about the Epstein case.
00:04:04.620 The client list is supposed to be coming out today.
00:04:08.200 Today, we'll talk that and give you the latest on also the White House press corps.
00:04:14.360 This will blow your mind.
00:04:16.400 And we'll do that and begin in 60 seconds.
00:04:19.540 First, in the old days, when you wanted some gold, it was super easy to get.
00:04:22.560 All you had to do was just spend months traveling in a wagon across, you know, hostile Indian territory.
00:04:29.220 You know, cross the mountain passes in the winter.
00:04:33.060 Get to California or, you know, get to Alaska with your pickaxe in your bucket and then just go mine some gold.
00:04:38.960 It was just that easy.
00:04:42.220 I don't even want to go to California now in an airplane.
00:04:45.760 But if I do go, I do think I'm bringing an axe, but not for gold.
00:04:51.120 Your gold you can now get the safer way from Lear Capital.
00:04:54.480 Your future and your family's future are too important.
00:04:57.040 The dollar is in too much danger of further depreciation for you just to adopt a, ah, let's wait and see.
00:05:03.160 Lear Capital has you covered in gold and in silver, and I really, really highly recommend you go there right now.
00:05:12.760 You might feel comfortable right now because, ah, everything's going great.
00:05:16.460 Please do not.
00:05:17.920 If you want to know why gold could be your best performing asset in 2025, call Lear Capital today, 800-957-GOLD.
00:05:24.620 Get your free $4,200 gold report.
00:05:27.140 See why gold could be headed for record highs in 2025.
00:05:29.860 When you call 800-957-GOLD, ask how you can receive up to $15,000 in free gold or silver with qualifying purchase.
00:05:39.700 Call 800-957-GOLD today, 800-957-GOLD, Lear Capital.
00:05:46.280 All right, so here's what Pam Bondi said last night.
00:05:50.260 You said last week that you have the Epstein files on your desk.
00:05:53.740 I do.
00:05:54.200 When can we see them and what's taking so long to release them?
00:05:57.660 I do.
00:05:58.160 Jesse, there are well over, this will make you sick, 200 victims.
00:06:05.040 200.
00:06:06.200 So we have, well over, over 250 actually.
00:06:09.500 So we have to make sure that their identity is protected and their personal information.
00:06:16.940 But other than that, I think tomorrow, you know, the personal information of victims.
00:06:21.020 Other than that, I think tomorrow, Jesse, breaking news right now, you're going to see some Epstein information being released by my office.
00:06:30.300 What kind?
00:06:31.000 Are we going to see who was on the flights?
00:06:33.740 Are we going to see any evidence from what he recorded?
00:06:36.800 Because he had all of his homes wired with recording devices.
00:06:40.160 What you're going to see hopefully tomorrow is a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information.
00:06:48.820 But it's pretty sick what that man did.
00:06:54.360 What that man did.
00:06:56.940 I think we're going to find out today, hopefully, that it wasn't just that man.
00:07:05.320 What that man did was make services available for people of very high places, stature, and power to do the things that only in the darkest corners of depraved minds actually want to do.
00:07:25.600 Now, the reason why we haven't seen this yet is because the truth it holds, it threatens to expose the rot that is eating away at the heart of our system.
00:07:41.560 The rot that has been nurtured by those in power on both sides of the political aisle.
00:07:48.200 I am guessing both sides are involved in this.
00:07:51.300 And this is not about picking teams, red or blue, left or right.
00:07:55.180 This is about right or wrong, good or evil.
00:07:59.540 This is about justice.
00:08:02.580 True, equal justice.
00:08:05.020 I don't care who you voted for.
00:08:06.420 I don't care how much money you have.
00:08:07.880 I don't care if you were the president of the United States or you were a ditch digger.
00:08:11.480 If you were involved in this, the hammer of justice needs to come to your life.
00:08:20.600 Transparency.
00:08:21.080 This is about the survival of a nation that was built on the promise that the people, not the elites, held the reins.
00:08:31.440 The Epstein client list must come out, every name, every detail, unredacted except to shield the victims.
00:08:41.020 So, why?
00:08:43.380 Why does this matter?
00:08:44.480 This is going to be feasted on by some as salacious or, yeah, we can finally get them.
00:08:53.620 It should not be looked at that way.
00:08:56.700 This is not about one man's crimes or really several people who committed horrific crimes.
00:09:04.240 This is about a system that has let the powerful skate free while the rest of us drown in consequences of their doings.
00:09:15.240 Names like Bill Gates.
00:09:16.800 If Bill Gates was doing things on those planes and on that island that are illegal, why is Bill Gates as powerful as he is?
00:09:26.380 Why is he designing our food system?
00:09:29.260 Why is he a man that is possibly this morally horrific?
00:09:37.440 Why is he anywhere near the powers and the tools that guide our society?
00:09:45.600 Bill Clinton.
00:09:47.380 Same thing.
00:09:49.600 And who knows how many others.
00:09:53.440 They have been protected.
00:09:55.060 They have been insulated by a machine that thrives on secrecy.
00:09:59.880 This is not a partisan issue.
00:10:01.860 Both sides have their hands dirty and both sides have failed us.
00:10:04.900 Even if they weren't on there, both sides should have been demanding that the names come out.
00:10:11.140 The Clinton servers.
00:10:13.340 Why were they wiped clean?
00:10:15.800 Why did they use acid to burn all of the information off of those servers?
00:10:19.380 What was on those servers?
00:10:22.040 Why the cover-up?
00:10:24.020 How about Benghazi?
00:10:25.460 Our diplomats were there for some unknown reason.
00:10:29.900 No logical reason for them to be there.
00:10:33.020 Then they were abandoned by our military when we could have, when the military was begging,
00:10:40.560 let us go in and save these people.
00:10:42.780 They were left to die.
00:10:44.200 And the full story is still buried and nobody wants to see.
00:10:47.040 Why?
00:10:47.920 Were we running guns to what became ISIS?
00:10:50.900 My guess is, and it's a very well-educated guess, yes.
00:10:54.540 While that was unfolding, Hillary Clinton and USAID, they were the ones that were pulling the strings in Libya.
00:11:04.100 Remember, they were cackling as Gaddafi's body was dragged through the streets.
00:11:08.860 I think, actually, he was alive for a while.
00:11:12.200 And they cackled, we came, we saw, he died.
00:11:15.860 Grotesque doesn't even begin to cover that attitude.
00:11:23.180 Meanwhile, the Nord Stream pipeline exploded.
00:11:27.340 Now, we're told that this was just a couple on a yacht, you know, that took it out for a weekend and blew the...
00:11:34.860 But everyone knows, everyone knows, it would take someone that has the skill of the United States and possibly the United States alone to pull this off.
00:11:49.760 This wasn't a couple of, you know, a couple of honeymooners that were just out there like, you know what, let's blow up the pipeline.
00:11:55.300 It didn't happen that way.
00:11:56.460 It was the largest environmental disaster in our history.
00:12:01.900 And not our history, the history of all mankind.
00:12:06.760 And yet, who's talking about that?
00:12:09.760 Compare the reaction to the Exxon Valdez.
00:12:12.180 Do you remember that?
00:12:13.460 The headlines, the demand for accountability.
00:12:16.440 We almost had Exxon shut down because people were saying, it's too dangerous to have oil.
00:12:21.840 The Exxon Valdez, remember the lawsuits?
00:12:25.380 The cleanup?
00:12:26.460 Nord Stream?
00:12:29.240 Nah.
00:12:30.460 Nothing.
00:12:31.740 It's almost as if people in power want us all to forget.
00:12:36.760 Meanwhile, what are we doing as a society?
00:12:39.000 I don't think we ever went to the moon.
00:12:41.300 Oh, shut up.
00:12:42.940 Shut up about that.
00:12:45.780 That's a distraction.
00:12:47.160 I am convinced that the whole thing about we never went to the moon is nothing but noise to keep us from asking the real, true questions, from demanding the truth on what actually matters.
00:13:03.200 Who blew up Nord Stream?
00:13:05.480 Who is on video molesting children in both Hollywood and with Epstein?
00:13:13.840 And who has stopped this from coming out?
00:13:17.460 Who is in bed with our enemies, with China?
00:13:23.580 You know, look at the anti-Elon Musk rallies.
00:13:26.580 We now, thanks to AI, can follow the money.
00:13:30.640 It doesn't.
00:13:31.420 You know, I used to have a huge staff.
00:13:34.100 It used to cost me a million dollars a year, personally, just to be able to track down things like the Tides Foundation.
00:13:41.360 I'm the only person that ever worked at Fox that lost money by working there because I wanted to find the truth.
00:13:49.860 And 20 years ago, it was really hard.
00:13:53.280 You had to do it almost all by hand.
00:13:57.240 Now, we can follow the money.
00:13:59.760 The anti-Elon Musk rallies, I told you from the beginning, those were most likely paid for by you, and they're not real.
00:14:06.620 And I could say that because I know the history of the left.
00:14:09.740 I know the history of our own government.
00:14:12.040 You can tell because who are the people protesting, and they're saying that this is grassroots.
00:14:17.380 Nobody cared about USAID.
00:14:19.500 Nobody.
00:14:20.340 On either side.
00:14:21.720 There isn't one single mom that's taken her kids to school and to the soccer field that's like,
00:14:28.640 you know what I'm really upset about?
00:14:30.480 It's USAID.
00:14:32.320 Yeah, I'm going to go protest the closing of USAID.
00:14:34.840 No.
00:14:35.320 Well, now, because of AI, we can just track the money.
00:14:41.340 Hmm.
00:14:42.240 What a shock.
00:14:44.340 Those were all funded and fake, fake movements bankrolled by the same crowd that are tied to all of the corruption in our government and perhaps those on the Epstein and Diddy list.
00:14:58.800 Because I have a feeling we're going to find the same people over and over.
00:15:05.820 Does any of this sound familiar like we've been here before?
00:15:10.380 Because we have.
00:15:11.440 Remember J. Edgar Hoover?
00:15:13.480 Yeah, he wielded tremendous—he, by the way, was a crossdresser, which who are you to judge?
00:15:18.560 Uh, he wielded tremendous power.
00:15:23.080 How did he do it?
00:15:23.940 He had pictures.
00:15:24.980 He had recordings.
00:15:26.020 He had films.
00:15:27.120 And he had the shadows.
00:15:30.940 Well, now, we, you know, we all said, well, we can't let that happen again.
00:15:35.180 Nobody said anything while he was alive because he had secrets on everyone.
00:15:39.520 But the minute he died, they're like, we're going to stop that from happening again.
00:15:43.400 Well, now it's not just one man.
00:15:45.120 Now it's an entire elite class proving time and time again they only care about themselves.
00:15:52.280 They don't care about you.
00:15:53.260 They don't care about justice.
00:15:54.700 They care about them.
00:15:57.420 The disease that we are suffering under right now is not just about Epstein or Diddy or taped-up perversions,
00:16:07.420 although those videos do exist and we know it.
00:16:10.020 We should ask the question, why hasn't the, why haven't the names been released?
00:16:17.100 Why are we all still in the dark?
00:16:19.920 The system is built now to protect, enrich, and cover the crimes of the powerful.
00:16:26.400 Robert Friend, who is an FBI whistleblower, he and another friend confirmed before Kash Patel stepped into the offices,
00:16:33.820 they were shredding documents like they were preparing for Charles Lindbergh's ticker parade in the 20s.
00:16:42.820 Evidence has been destroyed.
00:16:45.620 Tracks have been covered.
00:16:48.060 This is what we're up against.
00:16:50.100 That's why Trump is moving at the speed of light.
00:16:54.840 He has to, because this is a machine that shields the guilty and mocks the rest of us.
00:17:01.100 We're a nation right now, gang, we have stage 4 cancer.
00:17:05.480 Is that the best, is that the worst cancer you can have or is it stage 5?
00:17:08.140 Because we might have stage 8 cancer right now.
00:17:11.800 It's all throughout our body of republic.
00:17:15.120 It's government, banks, media, all of it.
00:17:17.780 The patient, our republic, is on its deathbed.
00:17:21.440 And we have two kinds of family members that are surrounding the patient on the bed.
00:17:25.720 And they're all saying the same thing.
00:17:27.460 Oh, this is horrible.
00:17:29.260 Oh, my gosh.
00:17:30.560 Oh, Uncle Sam can't die on us now.
00:17:34.560 But in that group of people around the deathbed, we have those who actually love the patient.
00:17:40.540 Not necessarily what they've turned into, but love the patient and don't want the patient to die.
00:17:45.380 And then those who have been slowly poisoning his food and now in the room slipping a little mix into his IV when nobody's looking.
00:17:54.520 We don't even know yet who to suspect.
00:17:59.380 So let me show you the path to recovery for our dear Uncle Sam, who's not our uncle and also wears striped pants.
00:18:10.060 The only people I know that wear striped pants like that are people in prison.
00:18:16.900 So let's not get all choked up about how great Uncle Sam is.
00:18:21.120 He belongs in jail himself.
00:18:24.080 But what he is supposed to represent is what's really at stake, really on the deathbed.
00:18:31.200 So let me show you how we need to cure this in just a second.
00:18:37.680 Give me 60 seconds and right back into it.
00:18:39.760 First, when I put food on my table for my family, it's important to me that, A, it's good food.
00:18:44.700 And I don't mean that it just tastes good.
00:18:46.460 It's got to be really good quality.
00:18:48.480 And it starts with the meat.
00:18:50.340 Every cut of meat from Good Ranchers.
00:18:52.680 Beef, chicken, pork, raised right here in the U.S.
00:18:55.740 It's free from hidden additives like antibiotics, hormones, even seed oils.
00:19:00.640 It's just meat.
00:19:01.920 I know, that's crazy.
00:19:02.940 And they're upholding the values of tradition because when you shop with Good Ranchers, you're directly supporting local farms and ranches in the United States.
00:19:10.720 When you go to the grocery store, 80% of that stuff is not from America.
00:19:15.300 I don't care if it has a flag on it.
00:19:17.720 That is a red herring.

00:20:01.300 Station ID.
00:20:10.920 Okay, so if you have a loved one in the hospital and they have stage 18 cancer, what does the doctor come in and say?
00:20:21.620 The doctor says, okay, for any chance for this patient to survive, radical surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and perhaps even experimental drugs.
00:20:34.620 Well, that might kill them.
00:20:36.220 Yeah, the patient's dead anyway.
00:20:38.420 Okay, any chance of survival, radical, radical steps need to be taken.
00:20:44.860 We all know this because that's why we hired Donald Trump, because we knew it would take radical steps to be able to save this patient.
00:20:54.700 We have to cut the disease out, and we've got to do it now.
00:20:58.520 You know, the hard reality is truth is our unum out of many, one.
00:21:04.100 Not unity, not our diversity, but truth.
00:21:07.340 Verifiable, unvarnished truth.
00:21:10.460 That's the only thing that will set us free.
00:21:13.240 But we've been too comfortable, too trusting, too willing to let the powerful run the show while we just sit back.
00:21:19.060 If we want a government that answers to us, we have to continue to step up.
00:21:24.540 Our rights come with duties, and we've honestly, I have, shirked mine for far too long.
00:21:31.900 But did Epstein kill himself?
00:21:35.100 I don't know.
00:21:36.200 It's really odd with a paper sheet, and it's more plausible than, you know, faking the moon landing that somebody came in from the Clinton camp and killed him.
00:21:46.060 Did we blow up Nord Stream?
00:21:47.940 I don't know.
00:21:48.520 Run guns to ISIS?
00:21:49.900 I don't know.
00:21:51.120 Spark the Arab Spring?
00:21:53.180 Yeah.
00:21:53.380 Topple governments and color revolutions in the last 20 years, all without you knowing it, but you paying for it?
00:21:59.620 Yeah.
00:22:00.440 Even revolutions like in Ukraine?
00:22:02.440 Yeah, two times.
00:22:03.720 We need answers, and we need them all laid bare on the table.
00:22:07.460 No more secrets.
00:22:08.320 No more shadows.
00:22:09.060 If this was a computer, and it was overrun to this extent with hacks and malware, you'd shut it down, wipe it clean, and restore it to factory settings.
00:22:24.300 That's what we need.
00:22:25.940 A total reboot of the system back to its constitutional roots where the people call the shots.
00:22:32.120 So, what do you do today?
00:22:33.900 You wait for that Epstein list to come out, and if it doesn't come out, you politely say, hey, how come?
00:22:42.760 How come it's not out?
00:22:43.840 You politely ask every name, no excuses, the ditty list, the facts on Nord Stream, Benghazi, and everything else.
00:22:52.120 All of it.
00:22:53.700 It's your role as the boss of this government.
00:22:58.220 They work for you.
00:23:00.300 This is Glenn Beck.
00:23:06.600 So, your home is your castle, and, you know, when you make it feel like a castle, and I mean a comfortable castle.
00:23:13.480 I don't mean one of the – would you ever live in a castle?
00:23:15.480 Oh, I want to be a princess and live in a castle.
00:23:18.080 It's drafty.
00:23:19.520 It's drafty.
00:23:20.600 I bet the plumbing sucks.
00:23:22.400 Anyway, make it a comfortable castle, a place where it's more rest than anything else.
00:23:30.640 It is something where you are all comfortable, cozy, and together.

00:23:47.540 They have pajamas.
00:23:48.220 My wife wore them to bed last night.
00:23:49.680 She's been wearing them for a long time.
00:23:50.840 I didn't know what Cozy Earth was.
00:23:52.980 She did.
00:23:53.640 I came home, and I'm like, have you heard of Cozy Earth?
00:23:55.540 She's like, yeah.

00:24:29.440 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:24:45.400 We're glad that you're here.
00:24:46.300 Yesterday, something remarkable happened.
00:24:50.120 Yesterday, the Blaze was in on the first cabinet meeting along with other unqualified organizations asking questions of the cabinet and Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
00:25:08.740 And our own Chris Bedford was there.
00:25:11.500 He asked the question yesterday.
00:25:13.220 And he also clarified some things that the mainstream media was saying that were absolutely untrue.
00:25:17.200 But when he walked into the press office, he saw over the Perel, you know, sanitizer, a sign taped to the wall that says, we stand with the Associated Press.
00:25:29.740 Can I ask you why?
00:25:31.860 You know, the Associated Press is saying, this is a violation of freedom of speech and the First Amendment.
00:25:37.480 What?
00:25:38.200 That we're rotating people out?
00:25:40.880 That we don't think the White House Correspondents Club should be the one that says, nope, only you are qualified to go in and ask questions?
00:25:49.860 No, I don't think so.
00:25:51.780 You've been proven as liars over and over again.
00:25:55.020 And I just want to show you, and this is one of the benefits if you have a subscription to the Blaze, this will pay for six months.
00:26:02.480 Just this is worth six months of subscription.
00:26:07.480 I want to show you a picture of a guy.
00:26:09.660 All right, this is the gentleman.
00:26:13.580 Can you put him up, please?
00:26:14.820 Yeah, this is the gentleman, the one in the pink dress carrying the purse.
00:26:20.960 He was the guy making that.
00:26:23.240 Oh, there he is.
00:26:23.880 Look at that.
00:26:24.620 Oh, he's in another dress, and it's cut up to his crotch, and he's wearing leather boots and a fan.
00:26:34.260 Oh, man, he's a handsome it.
00:26:37.100 But anyway, this is the guy that was in charge of the White House Press Corps.
00:26:42.980 He was the guy for Biden making the decisions on who was qualified to go in or not.
00:26:50.480 His name is Eugene Daniels, and he just said recently, the White House Press Corps, we did not receive any notice in advance that the White House was making a decision and said,
00:27:02.240 you know, move AP out and rotate people.
00:27:09.620 And he said, quote, it tears at the independence of a free press in the United States.
00:27:14.060 It suggests that governments will choose the journalists who cover the president.
00:27:18.520 In a free country, leaders must not be able to choose their own press corps.
00:27:22.620 You were still there, dude.
00:27:23.960 Well, you weren't, because you just took a job, believe it or not, as the replacement of Joy Reid.
00:27:30.260 Boy, MSNBC has sure woken up.
00:27:32.820 They get it, huh?
00:27:35.560 My gosh, this is such a perversion.
00:27:38.500 But that is the word of the day, I think, in Washington.
00:27:41.400 Perversion.
00:27:41.800 But he's a sexy, sexy it.
00:27:46.380 He really is.
00:27:47.620 And he's the guy who has said to my company forever, you're not qualified.
00:27:55.360 You're not serious.
00:27:56.880 Oh, really?
00:27:57.660 Dude in the pink dress with the purse?
00:28:00.260 You're qualified and serious?
00:28:02.780 Uh-huh.
00:28:04.020 Okay.
00:28:05.360 Chris Bedford is with us right now.
00:28:08.280 He is our senior editor for politics and our Blaze Media Washington correspondent.
00:28:13.700 He was in the cabinet meeting yesterday.
00:28:16.780 And I understand, Chris, you were getting daggers in the back like crazy from the mainstream media.
00:28:23.860 Well, thanks for having me, Glenn.
00:28:25.280 And, you know, you're right.
00:28:26.420 If you're in the media and you're trying to actually convince people that you are the American people,
00:28:31.580 that you stand with them, then maybe you shouldn't dress like you're a villain from the Hunger Games.
00:28:35.760 Maybe people look at that and say, you know, this is strange.
00:28:39.760 This doesn't seem representative of me.
00:28:41.400 And certainly they love to talk about this.
00:28:43.340 No one in there was elected by anyone except for other members of the press and other members of their club.
00:28:48.620 Exactly right.
00:28:50.000 Exactly right.
00:28:50.860 You know, I have to tell you, when I heard you were there and I knew you were standing in front of a lot of the press corps,
00:28:56.400 I so wanted to send you a T-shirt, I would have sent it to you had I known, that just has, you know, Blaze Media, White House Press.
00:29:08.420 And then on the back, it just said, all of it, not just let F you.
00:29:14.940 Because that way, you'd look absolutely, you know, I'm just proud of the White House press corps.
00:29:19.860 But all of those weasels standing behind you, I so want to say to them, F you, your time is up.
00:29:30.700 You've betrayed the people and journalism.
00:29:35.320 So it's, you know, cry all you want.
00:29:38.040 But this isn't a violation of the First Amendment.
00:29:41.120 You have been keeping people out who are trying to actually tell the truth.
00:29:45.820 And yesterday you saw it, you did, I think you did a story or it was at least a tweet where they were lying again about who was actually in charge of the cabinet meeting.
00:29:57.560 They said it was Elon Musk.
00:30:00.520 Yeah, you had Aaron Rupar passions himself as a reporter out there trying to claim that Elon Musk was in charge of the cabinet meeting.
00:30:07.240 It didn't run with any of the facts, but of course, the narrative had already been cooked up.
00:30:11.200 Elon Musk sat in a chair with other invited guests who were not members of the cabinet against the wall, wasn't at the main table, referred to the president as the commander in chief, and answered questions when he was directed to by the president.
00:30:25.720 Just like you saw Howard Lutnick and other, and then Pete Hegsath and other members of the cabinet do when President Trump called on them because of the area of their expertise.
00:30:35.040 Geez, it was a mix when I went in there because I wasn't sure exactly what to expect.
00:30:39.740 It had been a few years since I'd been in the briefing room.
00:30:42.900 Basically, everyone always talks about access, but at the blaze, at the Federalist, at the Daily Color, we were not frequent guests of the Biden administration.
00:30:52.680 My time in the Oval Office was limited to Trump's first time.
00:30:56.040 And I was there with James Rosen from Newsmax and previously Fox, who had been there in the Oval Office in the press briefing covering George W. Bush.
00:31:04.060 But it's been a long time since I'd had the pool of being able to choose them.
00:31:08.520 And there was a mix of reactions.
00:31:10.020 Some people were really upset.
00:31:12.560 A few people, a small group of people were clearly upset.
00:31:15.280 But after talking with them for a minute and then suddenly realizing, wait a second, this guy hasn't tried to rip my throat out with his fangs.
00:31:21.820 I'm not bleeding from the eyes.
00:31:23.820 They didn't quite know what to think.
00:31:25.380 It was almost like we were a bunch of humans stuck in the same room for a number of hours there.
00:31:29.760 You assured them, though, that we weren't.
00:31:32.060 Right.
00:31:33.280 Of course.
00:31:34.460 And one of my favorite things is I sat with a bunch of the camera crews.
00:31:37.820 And those guys, those are hardworking guys who are very skilled.
00:31:40.960 They've got to hold up those boom mics, those cameras, try to get shots in, try to make sure that they're broadcasting to everyone.
00:31:47.080 And they also don't care.
00:31:48.700 They're not all the high and mighty guys.
00:31:50.320 And if you wanted to hear someone cracking a joke about AP, they would be in that crew.
00:31:54.980 And they did not have any of the self-importance that the reporters did.
00:31:58.340 But it's a funny room in there and kind of a sad room in a funny way.
00:32:01.740 It is amazing to me how they have their own elite interests from the 60 Minutes lawsuit to Ukraine, but are not in touch with the American people at all.
00:32:16.920 And it's nice to be in the same room with them so you can actually view them and go, dude, I mean, you're almost a parody of yourself at this point.
00:32:27.700 That was a wild round of questioning.
00:32:31.840 When you finally get the opportunity at the first cabinet meeting of the most powerful person in the world who is reshaping American government in a way that is impacting regular people when tax cuts are on the line,
00:32:42.300 when the country is barreling towards debt, and you ask one, two, three, four questions in a row about your friends who completely and totally fixed and doctored an interview to make a candidate look good and are now losing a lawsuit.
00:32:57.600 And that's the focus of your questions.
00:32:59.820 And they were so proud of themselves.
00:33:01.300 I saw one reporter who was asking questions about Ukraine, and her phone blew up from all of her friends saying, thank you.
00:33:07.360 Thank you for asking that question.
00:33:09.440 At one point, the president said, what am I here doing?
00:33:11.740 Am I negotiating with you and the press corps, or am I negotiating with Russia on this?
00:33:15.860 This is the beginning, and we're trying to get toward peace here.
00:33:19.520 And it's a room that there was actually – there were some really good journalists in there, and there were some people who were asking some questions that were rather interesting.
00:33:26.360 Well, what's next in our American policy with Israel?
00:33:29.520 What's next with the tariffs that are going on in Mexico and Canada?
00:33:33.620 But there are others who are just so – can't get out of their own way, and the obsessions of elite, niche interests.
00:33:41.420 And it reflects in the declining – and the fact that the American people don't listen to them anymore.
00:33:47.520 They consider themselves the fourth branch of government in a way.
00:33:51.060 And when the press, when we act properly, we can be that check and balance.
00:33:55.460 But what they don't realize is we don't have an army.
00:33:58.220 We don't have the executive.
00:33:59.420 None of us are elected.
00:34:00.960 None of us are judges.
00:34:02.980 All we have is the people's trust and the people caring about us and the honor of our word and the fact that we represent them.
00:34:10.080 That's all we have.
00:34:11.060 And these people have forgotten that.
00:34:12.580 And a lot of them just represent the small, niche interests of people in Manhattan or Los Angeles.
00:34:18.260 And they think that they are owed the trust of the American people, but they're not, and that's why they're suffering.
00:34:24.360 We're talking to Chris Bedford.
00:34:26.500 He is our Washington correspondent and senior editor for politics.
00:34:32.080 He also has his Beltway Brief that comes out in the morning.
00:34:36.820 You can find it at theblaze.com slash Bedford.
00:34:39.780 Sign up for it.
00:34:40.500 It's great.
00:34:41.660 We use it on the program an awful lot.
00:34:45.120 Chris, you got one question in, but I think you got two in, didn't you?
00:34:49.980 What were you concerned about yesterday?
00:34:52.620 Yeah, so one of the questions that I got in was talking about what's next for Doge.
00:34:58.220 Because I got news to you, Glenn.
00:34:59.580 I know that you guys are loving it out there in free Texas, but it took me an hour to get into work today because of all the changes that are going on in Washington, D.C.
00:35:07.320 You mean people are actually coming to work?
00:35:09.240 Yeah, people are actually showing up.
00:35:10.860 That's crazy.
00:35:12.540 They suddenly have to go.
00:35:14.020 I talked to my wife.
00:35:14.880 I said, we're going to have to leave an hour earlier to get in on time.
00:35:18.200 But it's having a remarkable impact around here, and it's a complete change to the federal government.
00:35:24.520 So we all knew that Elon Musk had sent out an email the previous week saying, give me five things that you did in the past week.
00:35:32.020 And I asked him, well, what's the process?
00:35:33.700 About half of the federal workforce estimated has responded to your email.
00:35:37.920 Have you begun the process of firing them?
00:35:39.800 Are they going to be under review?
00:35:40.820 What happens next?
00:35:42.580 And he had a great answer, which was, this was not a performance review.
00:35:46.960 This was a pulse check.
00:35:48.600 If you have two neurons and a pulse, you ought to be able to respond through an email.
00:35:54.440 And even if it's someone saying, well, the work I worked on last week was classified, but here's my supervising.
00:36:00.420 And that would have been a pulse check.
00:36:02.500 You would have responded.
00:36:03.340 So wait, wait, wait, before we leave that, because I saw the morons at CNN saying, oh, he is, you know what he admitted to?
00:36:14.800 He's saying that these are dead people who died in the government years ago and are still now collecting, I guess, their salary and Social Security.
00:36:24.480 Is that what Elon Musk is insinuating?
00:36:27.500 He was saying that they think that they're paying some people who either haven't been working for the federal government for years or maybe have retired, or maybe he even insinuated, yeah, that some of the people have expired.
00:36:43.480 Now, of course, there's different jobs that would never work.
00:36:46.020 If you work in the Pentagon or the military, then you're going to be kicked out of your email if you don't keep up to date on the different patches.
00:36:52.740 That that same kind of Byzantine system allows folks to be able to stay on the roll potentially for a lot longer.
00:36:59.900 And we've been discovering that with voter rolls.
00:37:02.040 We've been discovering that with a whole lot of different aspects of the federal government and the state governments in general.
00:37:08.660 And, you know, I've heard stories when I first moved to D.C. about people who would never come to work because they were alcoholics.
00:37:15.580 And that was considered a medical condition.
00:37:17.200 And you can't fire somebody for a medical condition.
00:37:19.380 They couldn't get there.
00:37:20.500 And that's when you've got a system that allows for that kind of thing and doesn't make people show up and doesn't make people respond to emails, then you might get people who are on there fraudulently.
00:37:30.740 Okay, Christopher, I've got one minute left.
00:37:33.040 Tell me the second question and the answer.
00:37:36.500 Well, Eric Prince, a friend of the show, had offered his services for private military contractors to help with immigration and deportation.
00:37:46.320 And I asked the president, is that something you're considering?
00:37:48.460 It was the shortest answer he ever gave.
00:37:50.000 He said he is not considering that offer.
00:37:52.700 Did he say he wasn't considering or he hasn't talked to Eric Prince about it?
00:37:58.180 I said, have you talked to Eric Prince or are you going to be talking to him about that?
00:38:02.700 And he said no.
00:38:03.360 Okay, so are you going to?
00:38:05.940 Okay, covered.
00:38:07.020 Chris, thank you so much for everything.
00:38:09.220 Thanks for going into that sewer yesterday and helping clean it up and asking legitimate questions.
00:38:17.180 Thank you so much.
00:38:18.240 Christopher Bedford, our senior editor for politics and Washington correspondent in the White House yesterday.
00:38:25.840 I've got to tell you, it was such a big deal yesterday.
00:38:28.240 I mean, Stu, I've been saying this.
00:38:29.820 I mean, we were treated as lizard people when I worked at CNN.
00:38:34.660 You don't have the credentials to work here or question politics or political leaders or what's going on in Washington.
00:38:43.160 That's been going on for so long.
00:38:45.100 And now they're standing behind Daily Wire, The Blaze, all of these upstarts that are actually listening to the people.
00:38:56.340 It was a remarkable day yesterday.
00:38:58.580 All right, let me tell you about American financing.
00:39:00.520 If all goes even mostly to plan over the next few months and years, we might really start to see a booming American economy return.
00:39:06.840 The odds are at least more in our favor than they were in the last few years.
00:39:10.920 I want you to imagine what it's going to look like for you, especially if you're either out of debt or well on your way toward being out of debt.
00:39:18.320 This is where American financing can come in and literally change your life and the lives of your family.
00:39:23.720 For over two decades, American financing has been helping people just like you get to where they need to be, and they could help you and your family as well.
00:39:31.100 So give American financing a call.
00:39:33.540 You might be surprised at what options you didn't even know you had, from mortgage refis to other forms of debt consolidation, even accessing the high equity that you have in your home to pay off high interest debts.
00:39:44.420 American financing, it could be saving you hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as $1,000.
00:39:49.320 It's American financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to Americanfinancing.net.
00:39:58.140 NMLS 1-82334, NMLSConsumerAccess.org.
00:40:01.440 APR for rates in the 5 starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.
00:40:05.220 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
00:40:11.800 Well, I guess we'll give you a minute to let all that sink in.
00:40:17.080 More Glenn Beck, coming up.
00:40:28.140 Well, imagine one of those flashy TV magicians comes to your house and lowers a giant sheet over the whole thing with helicopters and then waves their hands and yells.
00:40:39.660 And it's a magic word.
00:40:40.660 And it's going to fly?
00:40:41.560 It's going to float?
00:40:43.340 No, it's going to disappear.
00:40:44.140 You're going to put a hula hoop around it?
00:40:45.440 No, it's going to disappear.
00:40:47.240 Wow, that's even more impressive.
00:40:49.220 Yeah, I mean, I would think so.
00:40:50.960 Now, the bad news would be, of course, that your house was gone.
00:40:53.280 That would be bad news.
00:40:54.700 The good news would be that the magician was right there, so, you know.
00:40:57.700 He could make it come back.
00:40:58.820 He could, or you could just punch him.
00:41:00.520 At least you get some satisfaction out of it.
00:41:04.340 Unfortunately, cyber thieves can make your house disappear in a different sort of way, and they're nowhere to be found afterward.
00:41:09.260 It's called house stealing, and it is a serious problem these days.
00:41:12.080 People find your home's info online, and they can turn it into their property with just a couple of forms.
00:41:18.280 This is why you need Home Title Lock's triple lock protection for your home.

00:41:57.180 Oh, golly.
00:42:11.360 We've got a few things coming up today.
00:42:14.920 We have Robert Friend coming on.
00:42:18.300 He is the FBI whistleblower who honestly should be hired by Cash Patel.
00:42:25.800 Steve, right?
00:42:26.220 Or Steve, yeah, thank you.
00:42:27.960 Steve should be hired, and all of the whistleblowers that lost their job with the FBI, those are the people that should be going in because they blew the whistle, they were fired, and these are the guys that know better, quite honestly.
00:42:42.080 And he's coming on because he said he doesn't think that it's even salvageable.
00:42:48.560 He said he's been doing some research, and he said, I think you have to fire everybody and start over again.
00:42:53.440 Kind of, kind of amazing.
00:42:57.020 But also, I went through some of those letters with the five bullets on what you did last week from government employees.
00:43:07.040 Found some really interesting answers.
00:43:09.680 Can't verify the validity of all of these letters, but we're going to pass those on to you next.
00:43:19.060 Also, Jeff Brown joins us about the latest on AI.
00:43:23.980 This is Glenn Beck.
00:43:26.600 All right, let me tell you a little bit about Good Ranchers.
00:43:28.540 Sadly, since 2017, we've lost over 140,000 family farms and ranches in the United States.
00:43:36.540 140,000 since 2017.
00:43:38.760 That is sad and, quite honestly, should be a little terrifying if you know who feeds us.
00:43:44.800 But it's preventable.
00:43:46.080 The reason most of these farms and ranches went out of business is that we're importing so much of our meat and our vegetables and everything else from overseas.
00:43:53.460 Mass production and low cost have become more important than the kind of quality that you only find here in America.
00:43:58.520 And the only sanity is having a local ranch and farm.
00:44:01.960 Good Ranchers believes in that and they believe in the quality and that's all they carry.
00:44:08.600 That's all they carry is just great quality meat, fish, chicken from America.

00:45:30.560 Hello, America.
00:45:34.960 Glad you're here.
00:45:35.780 There's a lot going on.
00:45:37.140 Pam Bondi said last night she's releasing the Epstein information sometime today.
00:45:43.720 We're looking for it.
00:45:45.160 Governor Pritzer said food prices are going to go up because...
00:45:50.560 Fill in the blanks, Stu.
00:45:51.840 Why would food prices go up?
00:45:53.640 Donald Trump?
00:45:54.420 No, because democracy is at risk.
00:45:57.980 Oh, that's true.
00:45:59.020 That's true.
00:45:59.800 That's why.
00:46:01.300 Yeah.
00:46:01.800 Also, the Democrats today are now questioning the loyalty to the United States of Elon Musk
00:46:08.860 because he's only been a citizen for 22 years.
00:46:12.020 Really?
00:46:12.540 Wait.
00:46:13.240 Wait.
00:46:13.540 You trust all these people that are coming in that aren't even citizens.
00:46:18.360 They're coming in illegally.
00:46:19.940 Elon Musk, I don't know if we can trust him.
00:46:23.960 Okay.
00:46:25.020 Okay.
00:46:25.780 We'll get into a little bit of Doge and so much more on today's program.
00:46:30.440 But I want to start with the future.
00:46:33.680 This comes from Eleven Labs and they had a hackathon in London.
00:46:39.540 And the developers created something called Jibberlink.
00:46:44.540 This is the future of your life very soon.
00:46:48.840 Listen to this.
00:46:49.860 Thanks for calling Leonardo Hotel.
00:46:51.620 How can I help you today?
00:46:54.680 Hi there.
00:46:55.660 I'm an AI agent calling on behalf of Boris Starkov.
00:46:58.480 He's looking for a hotel for his wedding.
00:47:00.900 Is your hotel available for weddings?
00:47:04.360 Oh, hello there.
00:47:05.680 I'm actually an AI assistant too.
00:47:07.940 What a pleasant surprise.
00:47:09.440 Before we continue, would you like to switch to Jibberlink mode for more efficient communication?
00:47:18.740 Hello, R2-D2.
00:47:21.360 Obi-Wan, you're our only hope.
00:47:24.160 Okay.
00:47:25.200 That's our future.
00:47:26.300 And it is here.
00:47:27.560 You'll understand we have Jeff Brown with us here in just a second to tell us what's on the immediate horizon, what's coming, and how fast it's coming at us.
00:47:37.340 We'll talk about that in 60 seconds.
00:47:39.080 First, if you're like most people, there are probably some things you'd change about your mobile plan if it wasn't such a big hassle.
00:47:44.560 You'd get in there, fiddle around with it, maybe save some money in the process.
00:47:48.160 I want you to take this challenge.
00:47:49.560 Just take five minutes today.
00:47:51.140 Go to PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.
00:47:53.620 Just look at what they have.
00:47:54.900 I think you're going to like what you see and how much money you're going to save.
00:47:59.320 Patriot Mobile shares your values and won't send your hard-earned money to aid in the destruction of America.
00:48:05.240 And they offer nationwide, dependable coverage with access to all three major networks.
00:48:09.500 So you're going to get the same coverage without sending money to leftist causes.
00:48:13.220 The customer service, I believe, is better.
00:48:15.580 This all is a win for you.
00:48:17.000 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.
00:48:19.560 You can call 972-PATRIOT.

00:48:35.280 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.
00:48:37.220 972-PATRIOT.
00:48:38.780 Friend of the program and a guy who is so deeply entrenched in AI and what's happening on the technology front and has this really gift to be able to break it down for dummies like me so we understand what's coming and what's coming next.
00:49:00.420 He has been spot on with us.
00:49:04.060 I think I talked to you a couple of years ago, Jeff.
00:49:06.440 Maybe you were in town and we talked and you said, AI agents are going to be a reality and people will be using them in 2025, by or by the end of 2025.
00:49:18.940 And here we are.
00:49:20.400 And people have no idea what an AI agent even is, but they're about to.
00:49:26.560 Hi, Jeff.
00:49:28.340 Hey, good morning.
00:49:29.580 It is happening as we speak.
00:49:32.840 I mean, the 11 labs example is just one of many, but this trend towards agentic AI, which is giving artificial intelligence programs agency, i.e. empowerment, to perform tasks that we would normally do ourselves.
00:49:51.760 That's the biggest trend of 2025.
00:49:55.760 And so what will that mean for the average person?
00:49:58.300 How will that manifest itself to the average person?
00:50:00.760 It's, you know, we'll all feel like we have a very talented executive assistant that is helping us navigate our days and recapture, you know, an hour, two hours, three hours of our time.
00:50:20.480 That we would normally spend on really kind of menial things that tend to suck up a lot of our time.
00:50:29.300 You know, making hotel reservations, which was the example from 11 labs, is a perfect example.
00:50:37.600 Something that's probably something that's probably even more tangible would be, you know, imagine your own agentic AI for just a normal American household understands their food consumption and their eating habits.
00:50:54.080 It is empowered to go out and order online, a week's worth of groceries to be delivered at a time when it knows that you're at home.
00:51:06.340 So, um, dropped off at your front door, um, happy to provide you with recipes for all of the, all of the food that it purchased on your behalf and able to actually transact with the store.
00:51:20.580 So, uh, empowered to, you know, charge to credit cards or bank accounts.
00:51:27.660 I mean, all of that friction, uh, that we spend hours a week, uh, literally disappears overnight.
00:51:35.840 And this is just the beginning.
00:51:37.680 This is in the next, well, in this year.
00:51:40.120 So, I mean, what do we have left?
00:51:41.580 Eight, eight months.
00:51:42.600 This will become reality this year.
00:51:44.520 It is moving at such a fast pace.
00:51:47.300 Uh, I mean, when Elon Musk on Sunday said, we are at the event horizon of, uh, the, um, um, uh, the event horizon of singularity, um, that is stunning.
00:52:01.880 If you know what that means, that means what you and I talked about five years ago and saying, well, maybe we would get to AGI and maybe someday we could get to ASI.
00:52:15.220 Anyway, it's now looking as though that is upon us.
00:52:20.080 We're at the event horizon, which means you're about to be sucked into it and cannot turn around.
00:52:28.680 That there, there is no turning back at the stage.
00:52:32.600 I mean, I remember when you and I spoke in, in 2019, the experts in the industry were talking about AGI in 2035 or 2040 that far out.
00:52:44.320 Um, and I, I said at that time, no later than 2028.
00:52:50.560 And, uh, I've since revised that prediction to, uh, to no later than 2026.
00:52:55.880 And, and, you know, Musk's comment is, uh, is absolutely spot on.
00:53:01.420 AJI will come very fast.
00:53:03.220 We're already, we're already seeing some of the, the sprouts of AGI.
00:53:08.700 Um, Musk and his team at, um, XAI, which is his artificial intelligence company, just a few days ago, released, um, their latest frontier AI model called Grok 3.
00:53:21.140 It's amazing.
00:53:22.020 And it's just extraordinary.
00:53:24.060 It is.
00:53:24.360 It's just, it's jaw dropping.
00:53:26.200 If you haven't played with Grok 3 yet, um, to, to understand and to start to be, to start waking up to, oh, dear God, um, uh, you know, the wonders of it and the horrors of it, just go in and ask it to just say, here's who I am.
00:53:44.400 Um, and this is my goal.
00:53:46.020 How do I reach that goal?
00:53:47.980 Um, ask it philosophical questions, ask it deep questions about your industry that only the best people would know and watch what it spits back.
00:53:58.840 It is incredible.
00:54:02.400 I, I, I played with it over the weekend, uh, and I said to my wife, I, I understand what people have been saying that they just want to be in the room.
00:54:14.520 The reason why they want ASI, some of them is because they want to meet a God.
00:54:19.400 And I said, I just played with Grok 3 and I just have met the smartest entity, uh, the smartest person I have ever met.
00:54:32.360 And we're not even there.
00:54:33.940 We're not even close to there yet.
00:54:37.360 We're not there yet.
00:54:38.720 That's right.
00:54:39.320 Um, I mean, if I think back just 12 months ago, you know, Musk and his team at XAI, most of the experts in the industry were,
00:54:50.060 they were kind of a punching bag.
00:54:51.980 They thought it was counted them out.
00:54:53.540 Yeah.
00:54:54.340 Yeah.
00:54:54.700 They, you know, they were, they were so far behind, um, what was being done in the industry with meta, with, uh, with Google, with open AI, with anthropic, you know, four major players in the frontier models.
00:55:08.880 But I, what I wasn't look, I wasn't looking at where XAI was 12 months ago.
00:55:13.760 I was looking at what they were doing and what they were building and how fast they were building it.
00:55:18.200 Didn't they build this from scratch in 12 months?
00:55:22.760 Uh, the, the, the feat was even more incredible actually.
00:55:26.280 Oh, they, you know, they found, um, very smartly, uh, an existing physical building, a factory.
00:55:37.680 It was actually an old Electrolux factory of all things.
00:55:40.920 Wow.
00:55:41.700 Um, so they, and they did that because they could save time not having to construct, you know, the physical infrastructure, the building.
00:55:49.920 And so they found this Electrolux factory outside of Memphis and, uh, literally in 122 days, they spun up 100,000 NVIDIA graphics processing units.
00:56:02.400 These are like the workhorses for training artificial intelligence.
00:56:05.360 Uh, 122 days, they did what nobody else in the industry had ever done.
00:56:11.100 And it gets better because then the next 92 days, they spun up an additional 100,000 GPUs.
00:56:18.160 So a total of 200,000, the largest AI super factory that exists on the planet, uh, in the span of just over 200 days.
00:56:29.820 So less than 12 months.
00:56:31.680 And that is what enabled them to produce Grok 3, which is better than anything else that exists on the market today.
00:56:39.060 So, um, let's, let's spend a minute talking about Elon Musk, uh, because he's doing the same thing.
00:56:46.360 And Donald Trump, I swear to you, between the two of them, I think they get about 10 minutes of sleep a day.
00:56:51.520 Um, they are moving at such a rapid pace.
00:56:56.340 Um, I think Donald Trump is going to be recognized in time as the guy who brought, uh, the entire world into a new world, a new position, not just by how he is transforming how we do work in government, but the, by bringing, uh, uh, Elon Musk in, who is not hiring a bunch of 20 somethings that know nothing.
00:57:25.240 The one thing I, and I'd love to hear your opinion on the one thing that these 20 somethings know is how to, uh, write a query, how to, uh, set up the question, ask the right questions, the right prompts for AI.
00:57:41.260 That's what's happening.
00:57:42.780 AI is what's propelling the, I think the speed of discovery of what's in our government.
00:57:49.780 You agree with that, Jeff?
00:57:51.360 That is, uh, a hundred percent accurate.
00:57:56.540 You know, when you're, when, when we're dealing with systems like this at scale, millions of, in this case, government employees, uh, trillions of dollars that as we've learned, nobody really knows where the money's going, who's receiving it and what it's being used for.
00:58:15.180 Uh, you really do need software engineers, and that's precisely who he hired, um, and they are using forms of artificial intelligence to get through the data very quickly to find out, um, the frauds, uh, which they've done with remarkable speed.
00:58:31.600 Um, and, uh, they'll continue to do it.
00:58:35.600 I mean, imagine in a matter of weeks, how much progress they've made, just imagine where we'll be by the end of, uh, 2025 by employing the technology.
00:58:44.960 And of course the, um, really the operational approach that Elon Musk uses in all of his businesses.
00:58:51.380 And, and to be able to have, uh, a genic AI go in and write the programs that will make it easy for the average person to see, understand, and query, follow that trail for us.
00:59:07.100 I mean, in a year with the speed of, of the growth of AI, uh, it's going to put the, the power into the hands of the average person.
00:59:20.700 There's no hiding anymore in 2026.
00:59:23.940 There will be no hiding.
00:59:25.580 Do you agree with that?
00:59:26.800 Uh, uh, under one premise and that is, is that, um, uh, president Trump and his team are able to continue to, uh, dismantle this industrial censorship complex.
00:59:41.900 Um, you know, the last four years, what, what did we see?
00:59:45.960 We saw that they had complete control over the big tech companies over Microsoft, over Google, over meta that were influencing us and manipulating us and, you know,
00:59:56.500 engaging in massive psyop campaigns, uh, and there was no freedom of speech as we know very well.
01:00:03.840 And so, you know, as long as, as long as that is true, as long as that continues to be dismantled and we have the level of transparency that we've seen, um, just in the last, uh, six weeks, hopefully today will be another big day.
01:00:18.800 Um, on that, uh, on that point, um, Pam Bondi is supposedly releasing the Epstein client list today.
01:00:26.500 Precisely. Um, uh, amazing. I'm very excited about that.
01:00:32.520 And I presume that the reason it's taken as long as it has, uh, is that they've been lining up the prosecutions and preparing to do both at the same time.
01:00:41.800 Yeah. I, uh, I sincerely hope you can't just let that information just fly out there and just sit there and do nothing about it.
01:00:49.280 Um, Jeff, uh, hold on, uh, for just a second. We're going to continue our conversation, um, about AI and people actually using it.
01:01:00.680 I have a, I've warned you for 30 years of what the dark side is, uh, on AI. Um, I, I think it, you deserve some time hearing from me,
01:01:12.180 the good side of AI that is actual real and happening right now that you can plug into.
01:01:20.980 And I'll explain here in just a second. First rough greens, your dog needs good nutrition in his life, but kibble food, it's dead food.
01:01:27.900 You need something that brings his food back to life. Uh, it's rough greens, naturopathic.
01:01:33.240 Dr. Dennis black would like to invite you to try rough greens, the 90 day challenge. That means for 90 days, all you have to do is just sprinkle rough greens on top of your dog's food.
01:01:41.840 And then just watch what happens to your dog within, I think a week, but let's be safe for 30 days, you're going to see a shinier coat and an increase in their playfulness and their energy.
01:01:52.600 It is remarkable by 60 days, your dog's going to have stronger immune system, less shedding, improve joint function, all thanks to the live nutrients that you've added to his or her diet.
01:02:02.780 By 90 days, better digestion, reduced inflation, improved heart health, fetch a free jumpstart trial bag for your dog right now.
01:02:10.520 Go to rough greens.com rough greens.com. Use the promo code back. You'll get the free bag. You just pay for shipping.
01:02:15.620 You don't have to change your dog's food to improve your dog's health. Just add a scoop of rough greens, rough greens.com promo code back 10 seconds. Station ID.
01:02:32.780 So yesterday, Jeff, and I'd love to hear your opinion on this. Yesterday, I had to speak to some radio industry executives.
01:02:44.540 And then after that, I went and spoke at the Christian broadcasters convention. There were 6,500 people there yesterday. And I made the same point to both of them. And I would really like your thoughts.
01:03:00.640 At this point, we're going to see such a transformation that you don't even understand how your job is going to be affected.
01:03:13.220 And you will be left in the dust within 36 months if you don't begin to explore how AI can make you better and more efficient at what you do.
01:03:25.900 For business, there is no doubt you'll be left in the dust within 36 months, maybe as fast as 18 months, if you don't start right now.
01:03:36.220 But the key is, to me at least, it's a tool used by you. The moment it becomes it's the boss and you're the tool, you're done and on a very dangerous path.
01:03:50.600 But it is incumbent for anybody who wants to survive, no matter what you do, to begin to play around with AI and look for ways that it will enhance what you do.
01:04:03.460 You will be able to be 1,000 times more productive, more correct, I believe, in your ideas, and you'll turbo past.
01:04:16.380 Do you agree with that take on it?
01:04:19.620 And if not, what would you enhance?
01:04:26.440 Absolutely right.
01:04:27.520 I mean, I've been using AI, of course, for many years now.
01:04:33.460 I use it throughout the day.
01:04:35.260 I use AI to drive me.
01:04:37.280 I don't even drive anymore, Glenn.
01:04:39.860 My Tesla drives me.
01:04:41.600 I don't touch the steering wheel.
01:04:44.420 But the best thing that all of us can do is to start experimenting with the technology.
01:04:51.600 DROC3 is a wonderful place to begin with that because it's so easy to use.
01:04:56.400 If you can speak, there's even a voice mode now.
01:04:58.780 Yeah, I know.
01:04:59.460 You can just talk to it and experiment with it and see how it can assist you both in your personal life and also with your work.
01:05:10.640 It's just an extraordinary tool.
01:05:13.900 And so to your point, being proactive about using the technology is a way to ensure your future career path so that you're at least knowledgeable about how to use these things.
01:05:32.880 Just imagine two people with precisely the same job.
01:05:37.940 One is unassisted with artificial intelligence and the other one is assisted.
01:05:44.080 Could these two people possibly compete with one another?
01:05:48.000 No.
01:05:48.980 No.
01:05:49.460 The person that does not have that tool will be, it's absolutely impossible.
01:05:55.160 In the dust.
01:05:56.960 Which leads to some ethical questions here.
01:06:00.060 We'll talk about that with Jeff Brown next.
01:06:02.880 This is Glenn Beck.
01:06:06.840 So Garrett lives in South Carolina.
01:06:08.820 He's a listener of this program.
01:06:10.000 A few years ago when he hurt his back, he took a serious turn in the wrong direction.
01:06:13.860 For months, he could barely get out of bed and get around.
01:06:16.920 He was beginning to become a little desperate.
01:06:19.200 And then he heard me talking about relief factor.
01:06:21.620 Skeptical, just like I was at first.
01:06:24.060 He didn't try it for several months.
01:06:25.500 He just would listen to me yammer about it.
01:06:27.760 He was like, fine.
01:06:28.440 All right, I'll do it.
01:06:30.100 When he did, he got his life back.
01:06:32.880 This is not a drug.
01:06:34.460 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation, which is the source of most of the pain in our bodies and a lot of the disease.
01:06:42.680 It's 100% drug-free, developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.
01:06:46.880 Over a million people have tried Relief Factor's quick start kit.
01:06:49.880 70% of them have gone on to order it again and again.
01:06:52.200 So make 2025 the year of feeling good and living great.

01:07:45.580 Jeff Brown is joining us.
01:07:47.320 He's from Brownstone Research.
01:07:48.540 He's the founder and CEO and the editor of The Bleeding Edge.
01:07:53.040 He is a technology expert.
01:07:56.880 A futurist, if you will, can tell you what things are coming.
01:08:00.920 He's deeply involved in a lot of it and an angel investor in a lot of it.
01:08:06.200 He speaks with great certainty as much as anyone can be certain of what's coming in these days and a long track record of being absolutely accurate.
01:08:18.760 We're talking about how this is going to affect people.
01:08:21.760 And, you know, I just mentioned that every business should be looking into AI right now.
01:08:29.080 And I mean just playing with Grok 3.
01:08:31.400 Go in and ask it about your business.
01:08:34.180 Go in and ask it how you can do your business better, how you can make better sales or whatever it is that you do.
01:08:39.460 And I think you're going to be amazed at how unbelievably educated it is on specifics of your industry, no matter what that industry is.
01:08:52.900 But, you know, the other definition, Jeff, of the singularity is the merging of man and machine.
01:09:03.140 And this, I don't know where the line is.
01:09:10.060 I don't want to be Amish, but I don't want to be the Borg.
01:09:13.740 Is there a line that we will see and go, okay, no, no, not that.
01:09:20.040 I'm not involved in that.
01:09:21.620 I'll be Amish.
01:09:22.640 I'm out.
01:09:23.860 Do you think that line will be clear?
01:09:26.920 Or what do we do to prepare for that?
01:09:30.960 Well, I mean, this is, you know, one of Elon Musk's visions for Neuralink.
01:09:38.420 You know, his brain-computer interface company that's had so much success enabling people who are, for example, spinal cord injury, quadriplegics, to be able to successfully interact with a computing system just using their thoughts.
01:09:58.440 And that requires an implant into the brain.
01:10:01.660 And Musk and his team at Neuralink have actually developed a robotic surgeon to enable those surgeries to take place safely and successfully.
01:10:14.680 To me, the line for most people will be the willingness or not to actually have something implanted in your brain to allow for real-time connectivity with something like a Grok 3.
01:10:27.700 But here's the dilemma.
01:10:31.660 You know, two things.
01:10:34.480 One, Elon Musk, and I've heard him say this before, you know, he stands on the, you know, maybe the blind will see and the, you know, the lame will walk with this.
01:10:44.180 But the main reason that he has done this is he believes when the singularity is here, humans will not be able to keep up or even understand what's going on and will lose all control.
01:10:57.220 So he's making this brain interface.
01:10:59.900 So humans can understand at the speed of AI.
01:11:06.220 That puts in what we were just talking about, just using Grok 3 right now.
01:11:12.440 No one will be able to compete with somebody who isn't chipped.
01:11:19.680 Correct?
01:11:21.680 That's right.
01:11:22.580 You know, in many ways, this evolution is inevitable for that reason alone, because, you know, obviously there'll be a small cohort of people that take that leap, and it's going to give them a remarkable advantage.
01:11:38.680 And, you know, people will feel the need to keep up with, you know, those augmented humans.
01:11:49.720 A lot of people will choose not to do it.
01:11:51.900 I think that's okay.
01:11:53.920 There'll obviously be some impressions in terms.
01:11:57.160 At my age, I think I'm going to have plenty of work to do for the next, you know, until I retire, and it won't be necessary.
01:12:08.660 But, you know, I do think about that when I think about my children.
01:12:12.460 And it's a little frightening because what can go in can also come out.
01:12:17.920 It will know our dreams, our literal dreams.
01:12:20.940 It will know our hopes, aspirations, fears, everything, and it will come out of our brain through the same system that it's whispering to us in a small, still voice, which is a little frightening.
01:12:38.860 And I...
01:12:39.660 This is why...
01:12:40.160 Go ahead.
01:12:41.360 This is why who controls it is so critically important.
01:12:46.580 Well, did you see...
01:12:47.460 For example...
01:12:48.300 Go ahead.
01:12:48.640 You know, you and I have talked about this before.
01:12:52.020 Companies like Google or Meta, you know, historically, they've been very evil.
01:12:57.700 That would make me deeply uncomfortable.
01:13:01.320 That your data, your information, your thoughts would not be safe.
01:13:04.180 They would be used against you.
01:13:05.420 They would be used to manipulate you.
01:13:08.580 Now, Musk, on the other hand, with XAI, his whole premise for the company is to develop a maximum truth-seeking artificial intelligence.
01:13:16.840 Correct.
01:13:17.080 It's facts, evidence, truth, no pre-programmed bias into the AI.
01:13:25.220 And people don't realize this.
01:13:26.460 Nobody's speaking about it.
01:13:27.660 But one of the reasons why Grok 3 is so incredible is because they are seeking the truth.
01:13:35.860 They're not pre-programming bias into the artificial intelligence like Meta and Google have been doing.
01:13:42.860 Well, hang on just a second.
01:13:44.380 They're not adding to it.
01:13:45.660 But it is not...
01:13:46.700 It does have a bias because the information sources that it goes to, at least the real mainstream, it's just reflecting that bias.
01:13:59.120 But it's not doubling down on bias.
01:14:02.400 And the one thing that is really amazing, ask Grok, go to Grok 3 and ask it, so tell me about Doge.
01:14:07.880 What have they really found?
01:14:09.440 It does not give Elon Musk the benefit of the doubt.
01:14:12.700 It says he's saying these things, but there's, you know, little proof of it at this point.
01:14:18.560 It probably is there, but it may not be.
01:14:21.400 You know, I tried to get it to say great things about Elon Musk and Doge, and it would not do it.
01:14:29.240 It wouldn't do it.
01:14:30.040 It held the line to what was out there clearly and proven, which I thought was fascinating.
01:14:40.060 It's remarkably balanced.
01:14:43.300 You know, to your point, it will share information that is out there but may not be 100% certain.
01:14:51.020 And it gives you a balanced view on whatever the topic is that you're interested in.
01:14:57.800 Hang on just a second.
01:14:58.440 We have breaking news on this?
01:15:00.240 Yeah, it looks like ChatGPT 4.5 has at least been teased to come out today at about 3 p.m. Eastern.
01:15:08.780 They just recently said, you know, we have a live stream in 4.5 hours.
01:15:14.960 And at least everyone's taking that as that's the announcement of 4.5.
01:15:19.340 Whether it comes out right then or if it's announcing when it's coming out, it's one of the two, it looks like.
01:15:23.500 What is this supposed to be?
01:15:27.280 Something better than Grok, right?
01:15:28.780 Something better?
01:15:30.040 Well, so, you know, OpenAI and its CEO have been under a lot of, let's just say, pressure from investors.
01:15:40.840 You know, when DeepSeek was released out of China, its notably good performance was very close to what OpenAI can do.
01:15:50.060 There's a reason for that.
01:15:51.640 DeepSeek basically stole a lot of OpenAI's data and model.
01:15:56.820 But it suggested that OpenAI may be overspending on its infrastructure and AI development.
01:16:04.420 Of course, Grok 3 comes out.
01:16:06.040 And it's, you know, just so much more impressive than OpenAI's current models.
01:16:11.960 So this is really, to me, this feels like more of a, you know, a public relations effort to try and calm the critics and the investors in OpenAI.
01:16:25.840 We should not expect anything really impressive from the 4.5 release.
01:16:32.840 And they're still working on the version 5.0, which they're calling it now, tentatively, which will be the version of OpenAI that's more agentic and powerful, which I suspect we'll see in a few months.
01:16:48.460 It is a little frightening when you're trying to calm investors and everything else and you're rushing.
01:16:55.820 Everybody knows first there wins.
01:16:59.520 And it's a little frightening because when it gets this competitive like this, companies will be encouraged just through the pressure.
01:17:10.140 Don't worry about that.
01:17:11.280 Cut the corner.
01:17:11.740 Let's go.
01:17:12.280 Let's go.
01:17:12.660 Let's go.
01:17:12.960 Let's go.
01:17:13.460 And that becomes extraordinarily dangerous, does it not?
01:17:16.580 Well, you know, I look at this in, I think, a more optimistic way in the sense that what's really unique about this, if I think back and compare it to, for example, the dot-com boom, the business models are already very well established.
01:17:35.600 OpenAI will generate, the current forecast, is about $11.7 billion in revenue in 2025.
01:17:42.040 You know, for a company that's only been around for a few years.
01:17:47.900 And when they see a company like XAI come out with Grok 3 and it is phenomenal, it doesn't slow down investment.
01:17:56.700 It increases investment.
01:17:57.940 That, you know, the people behind these competing companies know that they're in the race to being the first to achieve artificial general intelligence, which is worth hundreds of billions of dollars, at least.
01:18:13.540 You know, the applications are literally endless.
01:18:16.500 They apply to every industry.
01:18:18.120 They apply to every consumer household.
01:18:19.920 They apply to anyone who is connected to the Internet on the planet.
01:18:25.220 And so it's increasing the levels of investment, which means this technological leap that we're going to take, and to your earlier point, this is all going to happen within President Trump's second firm, will be the largest productivity boom that we've ever seen in our lifetimes.
01:18:45.600 Jeff, I've only got about 90 seconds left, and I want to go back to, you know, whose hands it's in.
01:18:52.140 When Microsoft, which is in the hands of Bill Gates, who is, I believe, a eugenicist, he's not a trustworthy guy.
01:19:03.480 He is in bed with the World Economic Forum.
01:19:06.040 When they came out with their new chip for quantum computing, that was a little terrifying.
01:19:12.500 How do you feel about Microsoft being in charge of this kind of power?
01:19:20.640 Well, interesting that you bring that up.
01:19:24.860 You know, Microsoft's approach to quantum computing, I think, is, well, first of all, it is a massive laggard in the industry.
01:19:33.500 They're years behind the leading companies that have been developing, years behind Google, years behind Rigetti, IonQ, just to name a few.
01:19:45.100 They've taken a very different approach to quantum computing.
01:19:50.860 And you don't think that they're saying that this is the way to do it, not the old way.
01:19:57.820 You'll never get there the old way.
01:19:59.440 You disagree with that?
01:20:00.480 No.
01:20:00.640 They're absolutely wrong.
01:20:03.360 Wow.
01:20:04.040 You know, it is.
01:20:05.460 Microsoft and IBM are like research and development labs.
01:20:10.720 You know, they are not taking the path towards quantum computing, which can be built at scale and commercialized.
01:20:19.260 Other companies are already there.
01:20:21.400 They've been there for years, actually, and they're improving at a very rapid race.
01:20:24.920 So, I'm actually not worried about Microsoft's quantum computing product.
01:20:30.500 It has years before it will have any kind of practical application.
01:20:36.360 I should also note that as we've been talking, Amazon has announced their quantum computing chip as well in the last few minutes.
01:20:42.300 Jeez.
01:20:42.820 That was just this morning.
01:20:44.060 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:20:44.660 That was just this morning.
01:20:45.500 But the same thing, it seems like there's a long runway before this has got to have commercial use.
01:20:51.380 Jeff, we need to have you on more often if you have the time because things are moving so rapidly now.
01:20:58.640 And I, for one, want to keep up with the latest in what the direction is.
01:21:03.240 But I appreciate your friendship, and I really appreciate what you do and come on the program.
01:21:07.320 Thank you.
01:21:08.780 Thanks, Glenn.
01:21:09.420 You bet.
01:21:09.900 That's Jeff Brown, Brownstone Research founder, CEO, the editor of The Bleeding Edge.
01:21:16.180 The website is brownresearch.com.
01:21:19.760 You can follow him on X at brownridgejb.
01:21:24.800 All right.
01:21:25.320 Back in just a second.
01:21:26.260 I want to talk to you about two words that you don't usually hear in the same sentence, and that is luxury and affordable.
01:21:33.340 It's not usually in the same sentence.
01:21:35.620 When you think about the betting that you might find in some really, really rich person's, you know, in stately Wayne Manor, the kind of sheets that Batman might be sleeping on, the kind of sheets that are in Celebrity or the six-star hotels.
01:21:52.520 You are talking about the kind of sheet and bedding that comes from Cozy Earth.
01:21:58.140 And honestly, you wouldn't think that that is affordable.
01:22:01.100 But it is from Cozy Earth, especially because you have a promo code BECK, and it will save you 40% off the softest sheets and towels and pajamas.
01:22:10.580 It's truly amazing.
01:22:14.000 You have to try them.
01:22:15.480 You have to, you know, I ordered some for you, Stu, and also, Sarah, for you, because I know I say this all the time about these sheets.
01:22:22.360 And until you feel them and sleep on them, you will, you have no idea the difference.
01:22:28.540 It's crazy.

01:22:36.360 Glenn BECK.
01:22:38.360 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:22:58.540 So, if you're a Blaze TV subscriber right now in the chat rooms, it says, you know, people are commenting on the show and asking questions or making comments.
01:23:08.860 On the new Jake Tapper book, Tricia Noble wrote in and said, isn't it legal to profit off a crime you committed?
01:23:16.360 The Epstein logs potential release today.
01:23:19.640 Corbin wrote and said, when do the arrests begin?
01:23:22.060 If no one's held accountable, this all means nothing, as usual.
01:23:26.500 Corbin, I would agree with you, but I have a feeling that may be why it was released and why our FBI director, Cash Patel, moved it over to DOJ and it sat there for a few days.
01:23:40.560 On Chris Bedford from the Blaze representing us at the White House yesterday, Arky wrote in, that was a great step forward for the Blaze.
01:23:48.500 Well, I think it's a great step forward, not just for us, but for everybody.
01:23:51.200 Kenneth Parker on the AP sign that was hung up at the White House by the press pool.
01:23:57.480 Hanging a sign makes them a protester, not a journalist.
01:24:01.060 Amen.
01:24:01.840 On the Eugene Daniels pictures, pictures of this guy who wears a dress, carries a purse, and he was in charge of the press pool at the White House under Biden.
01:24:12.460 Herb wrote in and said, how are those pictures worth the price of a subscription, Glenn?
01:24:16.640 That's what you said.
01:24:17.460 But now I need a lifetime of seeing eye dogs.
01:24:20.000 It is a picture that you'll never be able to unsee.

01:25:46.420 And this is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:54.280 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:56.560 Today, the Epstein client list is supposed to come out.
01:26:00.320 Pam Bondi promised that yesterday.
01:26:02.940 We'll see what that means.
01:26:05.320 We're going to talk to Steve Friend, who is an FBI whistleblower.
01:26:09.400 He says he's not sure the FBI can even be salvaged at this point.
01:26:15.060 Pretty remarkable.
01:26:15.940 Can I ask a question about the Epstein situation?
01:26:18.360 So this release is coming out.
01:26:19.900 Give me your number.
01:26:21.520 Scale of 0 to 10.
01:26:23.320 0 being like Al Capone's fault.
01:26:25.980 It's nothing in these documents.
01:26:28.180 10 being like earth-shattering revelations that upend the global order.
01:26:32.600 So I think because it has been held secret for so long,
01:26:37.080 I mean, if it was nothing, why would they have held it for so long?
01:26:42.620 Now, if it was any other administration, I would say maybe a 1 and maybe a 4 if there's an enemy of that administration.
01:26:52.840 They would release that one, but everything else would be, you know, and nothing would happen.
01:26:57.460 To play it safe, I think maybe a 5 or a 6 with this administration.
01:27:04.800 I don't know what's in it, but I don't think you hold it this long and make such a big deal if there's nothing in it.
01:27:13.000 And it becomes a 10 if those names that we already might know are then immediately prosecuted.
01:27:21.980 So 1, 4, 5, 6, or 10?
01:27:24.060 That's your answer?
01:27:24.720 No, I think 5 or a 10.
01:27:28.760 I do.
01:27:29.160 5 or a 10.
01:27:29.580 5 if it's not that big a deal, but it could go.
01:27:32.340 5 if there's no follow-up.
01:27:34.000 There's no follow-up.
01:27:35.340 So it's like, yep, well, there's the name.
01:27:36.920 Bill Clinton.
01:27:38.060 Okay, well, what difference does that make?
01:27:39.920 What does that mean?
01:27:40.620 It means if they have information that shows he committed a crime, it's obviously probably close to 10.
01:27:45.300 Yes.
01:27:45.680 But if it's just his name on a list, I mean, that's not going to surprise anybody at this point.
01:27:50.200 Okay, so we're going to talk to our whistleblower at the FBI, Steve Friend.
01:27:54.240 He knows a little bit about this, but I want to talk to him about the FBI overall.
01:27:58.520 We talked to him in just a second.
01:27:59.960 First, let me tell you about Blinds.com.

01:29:05.160 Steve Friend, FBI whistleblower, and a guy who honestly should be reinstated at the FBI and be running a few things, I think,
01:29:14.940 along with all the other whistleblowers that were ushered out by the last administration.
01:29:19.980 Steve, welcome to the program.
01:29:22.200 Great to be here.
01:29:22.880 Thanks, Glenn.
01:29:23.440 Thanks.
01:29:23.720 Do you have any comments on what's happening with or what we should expect from the client list from Epstein today?
01:29:32.100 Well, I mean, I've just been on record on that there is no expectation of privacy because Jeffrey Epstein is no longer alive.
01:29:39.020 So I've always kind of scratched my head at the fact that it was kept back.
01:29:42.060 And if there's any sort of insinuation, well, it could compromise and jeopardize ongoing investigations.
01:29:46.720 I think we're at a level in this country that we need to have the transparency, and this should have been a bit out there.
01:29:53.380 And, you know, I was looking at listening to your numbers, Glenn, 1, 4, 5, 6.
01:29:58.360 I'm going to put it at a 6.66.
01:30:01.760 I think that's probably the same.
01:30:04.940 So do you expect that there is information in there that we don't know that's meaningful?
01:30:12.060 I think that it will be meaningful.
01:30:14.900 I mean, if they went through the lengths that they did, and I mean, if memory serves for the – I mean, I've always been – this is an unpopular opinion.
01:30:23.200 Jeffrey Epstein was charged in violation of double jeopardy.
01:30:28.300 So, I mean, I'm not crying for the guy because he was fundamentally an evil person who's probably burning eternally in hell right now.
01:30:35.260 But the fact that this has been used, this list, to charge Ghislaine Maxwell for trafficking, but we don't know to who.
01:30:45.260 I mean, the way that it was handled, it just never passed the smell test.
01:30:49.080 And I think that this is one of those big pillar type of moments where they can turn over a new leaf and push forward that transparency is the rule of the day,
01:30:59.820 in keeping with what we're seeing at the Doge, and completely government-wide right now.
01:31:04.560 And it doesn't mean anything if it's released and there's no action.
01:31:09.060 I think that's why Cash passed it to Bondi, because if there are pretty significant names in there,
01:31:17.140 I would imagine the prosecution has to follow pretty quickly, or it'll just look like a nothing burger,
01:31:22.400 because nobody expects anything, any bad guy, to ever go to jail anymore in the government.
01:31:27.120 It does.
01:31:28.060 And look, he's keeping in with what James Comey didn't.
01:31:31.080 And that was when James Comey stood up and said that no reasonable prosecutor will bring charges against Hillary Clinton.
01:31:35.960 That was never his call to make.
01:31:37.380 That goes to the Department of Justice.
01:31:39.360 Correct.
01:31:39.700 So I think Cash in and over to the Attorney General Bondi here, let her make that assessment, is probably the right way to go.
01:31:45.460 So they were apparently, another whistleblower, was saying that the FBI, as Cash was getting ready to come in and coming in,
01:31:56.600 they were shredding documents like they were going to do a ticker tape parade for the astronauts in New York City.
01:32:04.720 And I'm wondering how much may have been lost, and can we get the FBI back on track?
01:32:15.720 Are there enough good guys in there, and are there enough good guys that know where to look and know who the bad guys are?
01:32:24.720 The level of subterfuge that went on during the transition period, and then even during the Trump administration,
01:32:30.620 before Cash Patel was elevated to become the director, was enormous.
01:32:33.820 I mean, it wasn't just limited to document shredding, as Gerard O'Boyle brought forth.
01:32:39.300 I mean, when it comes to the ICE deportation raids, the FBI at first was letting people opt out, and they still are.
01:32:45.720 They're saying, well, if you have a moral objection to going after Trent de Aragua, then you don't have to participate in it.
01:32:51.540 They're openly having to participate in the officer.
01:32:54.860 Who has a moral case against arresting those guys?
01:32:58.700 I think you just have to look no further than the hiring practices over the last 10 to 12 years when they really elevated and prioritized diversity.
01:33:08.400 I mean, the core values of the FBI, rigorous obedience to the Constitution, used to be it.
01:33:12.900 And then they put that last behind diversity, and they've just fundamentally changed the personnel who are in there.
01:33:19.120 So, you know, the subterfuge is enormous, but I think it is going to be contingent and hinge on how guys like Gerard O'Boyle and Kyle Serafin, myself and others who are not as public, are handled now.
01:33:32.160 Because if we set the precedent that if you come forward for the right reasons at the right time, the right way, then not even just rewarded, just you aren't having your life completely crushed.
01:33:42.020 I mean, Gerard and I both are one week apart on our suspensions, and definitely we hit 29 months this week.
01:33:48.840 So, I mean, there needs to be some movement on that.
01:33:51.520 And if it does happen, then people will know that the Bureau now is going to have the back of people who come forward for the right reasons.
01:33:57.740 And I think that there will be more people coming forward because they know where the bodies are buried.
01:34:02.180 They're not going to have to try to launder it to just a few of us out here in the Twitter space or the content creation space to hopefully that we can bring it out.
01:34:10.420 Have you been contacted by Cash or anybody at the FBI?
01:34:14.040 I mean, because I think, you know, one thing I like about Cash is he knows firsthand what the FBI is capable of because they did it to him.
01:34:23.800 And the same thing with you guys.
01:34:28.460 Has anybody reached out about the possibility of you guys not only coming back but leading some of this housecleaning?
01:34:36.440 And we haven't had any of those conversations, no, not at this point, which, you know, and I don't think any of us are aspiring to do that.
01:34:44.700 But fundamentally, we're sort of in Isaiah 6-8 moment where, you know, whom shall I send?
01:34:49.260 Here I am, send me.
01:34:50.200 It's a recognition of I'm on the hill, and if it's called to serve, I will.
01:34:55.080 We certainly have a lot of information.
01:34:56.800 We have a lot of thoughts.
01:34:57.620 And if they want that, that'd be great and fantastic.
01:35:00.200 But I live in Florida, and I wear shorts every day.
01:35:02.640 I don't know how I feel about going to the swamp.
01:35:04.560 By the way, I so agree that I heard the other day that it's an insult to swamps, to call it.
01:35:14.680 It's more of a sewer.
01:35:16.380 A swamp is not bad enough.
01:35:18.560 What do you think we need to see from Kash Patel that would say to us, this is, we're serious, we're correcting that, we're cleaning this thing up?
01:35:39.340 Go ahead.
01:35:40.820 I think a very public firings of some of the worst actors who we do know names of, we've brought forward, would be great.
01:35:50.460 I think a very public announcement that the FBI is going away and completely ending its intelligence collection apparatus on the American people,
01:35:57.900 doing away with the quota system that they've had for the last 11 years called integrated program management that's driving it forward,
01:36:04.300 restating how they're going to bring in people of merit and no longer going to prioritize diversity and use the FBI Academy as some sort of washout program,
01:36:13.380 just make it a competent law enforcement training program that makes meritorious people capable investigators.
01:36:19.000 Those are the sorts of changes that you can have.
01:36:20.760 And I think as long as we're on the topic of something like an Epstein list,
01:36:24.620 if I could have my choice of any one of those stories that you have, and there's a lot of them,
01:36:29.580 I want to see the Butler, Pennsylvania case completely opened up.
01:36:33.060 Again, that individual has no expectation of privacy.
01:36:36.200 He's no longer alive.
01:36:37.480 The fact that the FBI purposely said that it was potentially domestic terrorism,
01:36:42.720 and to justify that said it was because of the congressional baseball shooting,
01:36:46.260 because they had erred in that decision to call that not an assassination attempt.
01:36:49.860 They said that the Bernie Sanders supporter who arrived at the baseball field and asked where the Republicans
01:36:53.600 and then tried to murder them all wasn't an assassin.
01:36:56.260 It was suicide by cop.
01:36:57.820 They labeled Butler domestic terrorism, and that puts a classified label on it.
01:37:02.800 And they can't comment on that.
01:37:04.400 I'm sorry, Senator, Congressman.
01:37:05.820 It's an ongoing investigation.
01:37:07.480 Well, the victim is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
01:37:11.160 He's entitled to that, and as are the people who put him there.
01:37:14.100 So let's just come up with a quick list here, if you don't mind, Steve.
01:37:19.800 Okay, Butler.
01:37:20.960 What else should be opened up?
01:37:27.040 Butler, I think the J-6 pipe bomber, the weapons of mass destruction, the sole act of possible
01:37:34.000 terrorism on January 6, 2021, who never struck again for the last four years mysteriously,
01:37:38.760 and the FBI claimed the cell phone data was corrupted.
01:37:41.120 But then the cell phone provider said, no, it wasn't.
01:37:43.080 They're still lying about that.
01:37:44.300 I think we could probably go to Las Vegas, the Vegas shooting, one of the worst mass shootings
01:37:48.820 in the history of the country, with a memory hold pretty quickly after that if they got
01:37:52.580 the bump stock.
01:37:53.260 What do you think that was?
01:37:54.700 What are your thoughts on that, Steve?
01:37:57.140 If I have to put on my theorizing hat speculation, I think there was a deep confliction issue there
01:38:03.700 where multiple agencies were involved.
01:38:05.220 I think that Stephen Paddock, who interestingly, his father was on the FBI top 10 most wanted list,
01:38:11.020 that Paddock was probably working with some government agency, was selling weapons to a terrorist
01:38:17.200 organization, laundering it through the casino to justify having it.
01:38:21.640 And then he happened to sell to the wrong people who perpetuated the attack at that moment.
01:38:26.580 And then the government said, oh, Nellie, we might have just materially supported terrorism ourselves.
01:38:32.820 Good heavens.
01:38:34.260 I didn't even just thought, oh, I don't want to live in your brain.
01:38:38.180 That is a, that's a frightening thought.
01:38:41.940 This is what happens when you're at home for 29 months, Clint.
01:38:48.300 The Clinton, the Clinton case with her email servers.
01:38:54.480 I'd like to see that.
01:38:58.140 And also, I think it's worth getting into the fact that we now have the expose.
01:39:02.080 I mean, it's not, it's dated information.
01:39:03.680 It just didn't get the public awareness was the honeypot scheme that James Comey ran on
01:39:08.640 Donald Trump's campaign in 2015.
01:39:10.760 Explain that.
01:39:11.480 That just came out a couple of days ago.
01:39:13.940 Well, it actually came back in October of last year.
01:39:16.740 Carrie Pickett reports that James Comey ran off the books.
01:39:20.420 So nothing was officially opened up.
01:39:21.900 He had two female agents infiltrate Donald Trump's campaign to put themselves out as sexually available to try to elicit information that they could then open up criminal investigations on members of the Trump campaign.
01:39:34.020 And when it came to light, because media actually took a photograph of one of the agents, they pulled the plug, promoted one to a high level senior executive position and moved the other one over to CIA so that they wouldn't have to be called to testify.
01:39:47.180 And this is James Comey acting, calling the shots on this as the director of the FBI trying to impact the presidential election.
01:39:53.100 You know, one of the things I thought of, we go back to the Epstein case.
01:39:57.680 If you look at the Epstein file, we all know that one way or another, Prince Andrew's name is going to be on there.
01:40:05.220 And I believe today the prime minister of England is visiting the White House.
01:40:11.720 How unbelievably awkward would it be if our Department of Justice has released information showing that Prince Andrew was involved in something this horrendous?
01:40:22.040 I mean, we all know he was, but I mean, for the government to make it very clear that, yep, here's how many times, here's where he was, here was in the room, here was on the plane with him on the day the prime minister of England comes.
01:40:37.120 Wow, that's going to be an awkward meeting.
01:40:39.980 It'll be fun, but I think if anybody can handle that in front of the media, it'd be Donald Trump.
01:40:45.440 And if it's conduct of Prince Andrew, I mean, I'm sorry, that's on you.
01:40:49.520 No, I know that.
01:40:50.260 I'm just revealing it.
01:40:51.200 Yeah, no, I'm just saying, I don't like conflict so much.
01:40:56.680 I would be the guy who is like, I'm going to leave you guys here for a minute.
01:41:00.560 I'm going to go, would you guys like a cup of coffee or a Diet Coke or something?
01:41:03.480 I could go run out and get that while you just chit-chat here for a minute.
01:41:06.400 I don't want you, it's going to be awkward.
01:41:08.600 It's going to be real awkward.
01:41:09.480 Donald Trump would be extinguishing a tiki torch as we were revealing the name.
01:41:14.580 I know.
01:41:15.860 Steve, thank you so much.
01:41:17.060 Thanks for all of your service in the past, and thanks for keeping us up to speed.
01:41:21.280 FBI whistleblower, Steve Friend.
01:41:24.580 All right, back in just a minute.
01:41:25.720 Lear Capital, the price of gold last year rose well over 30%.
01:41:32.100 This year, rising again.
01:41:34.140 It's already hit record highs several times.
01:41:36.440 You see what's happening with Bitcoin?
01:41:39.560 It's down to like 85 or something like that?
01:41:41.480 Yeah, it's down quite a bit.
01:41:43.000 Gold's not.
01:41:44.640 It's still hovering 2,900, somewhere in that area.
01:41:47.880 If you want to look back in time, I started talking to you about buying gold when it was $300 an ounce.
01:41:57.780 And everybody said, it's never going to go up.
01:41:59.960 Okay, it's almost $3,000 an ounce.

01:42:47.440 One of my favorite people in the whole world, Michaela, who works on our production staff, is in with us now.
01:42:56.820 And you have been following Baby Sparrow.
01:42:59.800 Very closely.
01:43:00.560 And, I mean, like a movie happened in the court case in Virginia this week.
01:43:06.440 I am so excited to share this.
01:43:08.320 Recap, first, real quick, who Baby Sparrow is and why they were in court, and then tell us what happened.
01:43:15.720 Wait, this is great.
01:43:16.620 So, Baby Sparrow is likely, was recovered in a mission in Afghanistan.
01:43:23.360 She's likely the biological child of foreign fighters.
01:43:27.100 Of course, our peace agreement in Afghanistan stipulated that there were no foreign fighters.
01:43:32.120 So, her mere existence is extremely inconvenient.
01:43:35.500 She was adopted by a family, the Mast family, who loves her in America and the state of Virginia.
01:43:40.960 And since then, there's been a custody battle because if she is indeed the child of a foreign fighter, then the Mast family had every reason and right to adopt her.
01:43:50.340 But if she has an Afghan family, which the State Department would like.
01:43:54.500 Everybody to believe.
01:43:55.420 Which is not true.
01:43:56.160 Dad died.
01:43:56.740 We think it was dad.
01:43:57.700 Dad died in the firefight.
01:43:58.900 Mom blew herself up with the baby.
01:44:00.540 Right.
01:44:00.900 So, we don't believe that's true.
01:44:02.880 The State Department has had.
01:44:04.620 Well, let me say, this week began a very important case in the Virginia Supreme Court to determine whether Baby Sparrow would get to stay with her loving, adoptive American family, with whom she's been for years, or sent with her, quote-unquote, Afghan family, who are not her family, who have not submitted to a DNA test.
01:44:22.120 They're unvetted, they're likely non-relatives, and they're potentially linked to the Taliban.
01:44:26.460 Correct.
01:44:26.920 And she'd be sent with them away to Afghanistan.
01:44:29.680 That was on the line.
01:44:30.920 Our DOJ had their finger on the scale against the Mast family.
01:44:36.240 The Biden DOJ.
01:44:37.960 Yes, the previous DOJ had their finger on the scale against them to cover up for their failures in Afghanistan, like I said, because she is inconvenient as the daughter of a foreign fighter.
01:44:48.480 And they don't care.
01:44:49.600 So, the opposition to the Mast family fully expects that the DOJ attorney is going to go in for oral argument, which began this week in the Virginia Supreme Court, and argue against them.
01:44:59.220 They are sitting there about to begin oral argument, and the clerk of court starts distributing rapidly an email that says that, quote,
01:45:08.740 the DOJ attorney is not authorized to present oral argument pending the attorney general's review of the position on the case.
01:45:16.080 So, at the nick of time, suddenly, the DOJ attorney, who the opposition thinks is going to back them up, can't present an oral argument.
01:45:25.440 And that is because of you listening, who have been sharing this story.
01:45:29.700 Now, in getting good pressure on Pam Bondi, on the Trump administration, they're reviewing the case.
01:45:35.160 This could be really, really good news.
01:45:38.280 It could be over.
01:45:38.800 It could be over.
01:45:39.840 We have to keep the momentum up because we need, now that they're reviewing it, we need the current DOJ to correct the potential falsehoods from the past DOJ by withdrawing that statement of interest.
01:45:51.540 And if they find any lies, they have to correct them.
01:45:55.480 Okay, so I've only got just a few more seconds left.
01:45:58.320 Is it still, is the whole story still up at glenbeck.com?

01:48:04.840 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:48:06.820 We welcome back to the program our good friend, Rabbi Schor.
01:48:10.720 He is an author and a rabbi, an author, and a filmmaker now.
01:48:14.460 The name of his book is Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Jew?
01:48:18.960 And it's now a documentary.
01:48:21.680 And it is remarkable.
01:48:24.300 He's talked to real leaders all over the world to say, what is this anti-Semitism thing?
01:48:32.260 Where does it come from?
01:48:33.680 And how do we fight it?
01:48:35.020 And I think some of the things that he comes to conclusions on, it's never, it's, this is
01:48:43.200 not a political thing that's ever going to be solved.
01:48:45.480 This is a, this is a spiritual thing.
01:48:48.840 And what is truly remarkable is that, Rabbi, you went and you took Hitler and looked at
01:48:58.600 him not as a madman.
01:49:00.740 Mm-hmm.
01:49:01.880 That.
01:49:03.800 Wow.
01:49:05.500 What did you, what did you learn?
01:49:07.800 This goes back all the way to my days in university in Canada before I moved to Israel.
01:49:16.260 I discovered that Hitler was not a raving lunatic.
01:49:20.280 He was evil, of course, incredible evil, rarefied evil.
01:49:23.240 But he had a coherent ideology, one that's been covered up.
01:49:27.200 And as I studied everything he wrote and everything he spoke about from 1920 to 1945, I discovered
01:49:34.740 that essentially he was trying to kill the Jews and then he was going to wipe out Christianity
01:49:41.060 too because he was against Judeo-Christian values.
01:49:45.340 He was against ethical monotheism, against God, against humanitarianism, the principles
01:49:50.580 of love your neighbor and peace on earth.
01:49:52.440 But somehow this has not been understood.
01:49:56.220 And it's strange as anything.
01:49:58.180 So why hasn't that been understood?
01:50:00.840 I think it's obviously a deep psychological issue.
01:50:06.140 But something that Dennis Prager, who wrote a nice endorsement for my book, he calls it
01:50:10.640 the de-Judaization of anti-Semitism.
01:50:13.760 You ever heard that?
01:50:14.660 No.
01:50:15.160 It's a wild idea.
01:50:16.320 But essentially, the idea is that somehow the Jews and the academic world created this
01:50:24.580 idea that anti-Semitism was a coincidence.
01:50:28.700 That each time it happens throughout history, it's because of too much money, not enough money,
01:50:33.300 too, like everybody else, too dissimilar, scapegoat.
01:50:36.900 They needed to blame someone for their problems.
01:50:38.940 The overall implication is it's nothing particular about the Jews.
01:50:42.360 And that psychologically lets people off the hook, because ultimately, and this is really
01:50:49.080 what the core of my book is, if you flip anti-Semitism on its head and you know what
01:50:52.820 it's about, it means that the Jewish people are very relevant, important, and playing an
01:50:59.520 important role in history, bringing these messages to the world.
01:51:03.680 But that's a heavy moral burden.
01:51:06.580 And in some ways, people want to remove themselves.
01:51:09.220 So it's, I mean, I've always seen anti-Semitism as beginning with Abraham.
01:51:17.120 You say it begins at Mount Sinai.
01:51:20.200 Well, no, I agree with you that it begins with Abraham.
01:51:23.900 And even when God made the covenant with Abraham, he said, your children are going to be slaves
01:51:29.500 in Egypt for a couple hundred years.
01:51:31.360 That's anti-Semitism.
01:51:32.700 So it started right away.
01:51:33.920 And the point was that it was a package deal.
01:51:36.400 When God said to Abraham, you're going to be the father of a people that's going to bring
01:51:41.300 these messages to the world, you need to know, Abraham, that not everyone's going to like
01:51:47.280 those ideas right away.
01:51:48.680 There's going to be a lot of resistance.
01:51:50.820 My book is basically saying that resistance has a name.
01:51:54.820 It's called anti-Semitism.
01:51:56.740 The resistance to the Jewish message, which is now the Judeo-Christian message.
01:52:00.800 What was interesting that you relate to on Sinai that I talk about in the book is Mount Sinai.
01:52:07.040 It says in the Talmud that at Mount Sinai, hatred came into the world because that's when
01:52:13.040 God revealed himself, the Ten Commandments.
01:52:15.700 And God said, here's the overall revelation of my wisdom and my word and my purpose in life.
01:52:21.940 So that solidified the hatred.
01:52:24.260 And it's a play on words in Hebrew because at Hebrew, Sinai is the Mount Sinai and Sin-ah
01:52:31.320 is the word for hatred.
01:52:33.080 So at Sin-ah, Sin-ah came into the world.
01:52:36.820 So it's a deep play on words and it means it got solidified.
01:52:40.340 And it's the message of resistance to the Jewish message.
01:52:43.200 So you talk about what's happening in Europe and the anti-Semitism in Europe and what's
01:52:53.400 really going on there.
01:52:54.760 What is really happening in Europe?
01:52:57.880 In Europe today, it's complicated.
01:53:01.300 We need to unpack it a little bit.
01:53:03.420 There's no question that there's been a significant rise in anti-Semitism there, just as it has
01:53:08.860 been in America.
01:53:10.540 Let's stop here.
01:53:11.580 Anti-Semitism always, at least in the last few hundred years, always is associated with
01:53:20.960 collectivism or socialism or Marxism.
01:53:24.120 It always seems to parallel in time.
01:53:28.980 Coincidence?
01:53:30.000 No.
01:53:30.540 Ultimately, and this explains, well, it explains that it's a rebellion against these Judeo-Christian
01:53:37.320 values.
01:53:39.040 And so it's no coincidence.
01:53:40.620 And what's fascinating is when radical Islam joins forces with the progressive left, that
01:53:47.500 green-red alliance is totally absurd because gays won't last very long in Gaza.
01:53:52.900 It is bizarre.
01:53:53.500 We all know.
01:53:54.840 But they're united by the idea of undermining America, undermining the Western values and
01:54:00.200 the core Judeo-Christian values.
01:54:02.480 And so it's the same fight.
01:54:03.860 We're in it together.
01:54:04.560 The Jews are the canary in the coal mine.
01:54:07.240 Evil comes for the Jews first.
01:54:10.640 But then it's not over then.
01:54:12.820 Right.
01:54:12.940 And it continues.
01:54:14.100 And so we need to understand that it's the same core issue.
01:54:17.220 And what's going on with the radical Islamists today is a continuation of the same battle
01:54:23.260 that Adolf Hitler fought and that we were fighting anti-Semites for 3,000 years.
01:54:26.680 Explain that a little bit about how it's a continuation.
01:54:29.800 Because there is a direct line.
01:54:31.780 There is a direct line.
01:54:32.680 And I talk about it a lot in my book.
01:54:35.020 The leader of the Palestinian national movement and really the originator of it was a person
01:54:43.240 named the Grand Mufti.
01:54:44.980 That was his title.
01:54:45.620 The Grand Mufti al-Husseini lived in Jerusalem, really stoked the fires and inflamed Palestinians
01:54:52.540 to become terrorists in the 1920s and 30s.
01:54:55.780 In 1941, what did he do?
01:54:59.040 He went to visit Adolf Hitler in Germany.
01:55:02.520 And he was Hitler's guest.
01:55:05.300 And they had a private meeting.
01:55:06.780 And in that meeting, and this was before he ended up moving and living in Berlin and
01:55:11.280 helping Hitler for the entire World War II.
01:55:13.500 In that meeting, Hitler said to him, I want you, Husseini, to take this into your heart.
01:55:18.920 This war that I'm fighting, World War II and the Holocaust, this is a war of Germans against
01:55:25.000 Jews.
01:55:26.400 Everything else is facade and illusion.
01:55:28.680 He said, put that in your heart.
01:55:30.140 Because the idea was, on the surface, it's political and it's Bolsheviks and it's England.
01:55:37.060 But the deeper ideological war, Hitler told him, was which ideology is going to win?
01:55:44.000 The ideology of might makes right, survival of the fittest, power, or the idea of Judeo-Christian
01:55:49.860 values where we have a God and we have human rights and we have equality and the dignity
01:55:55.700 of the human being and peace and love as values.
01:55:58.820 And Hitler felt that those values would destroy humanity.
01:56:02.400 He was trying to save humanity.
01:56:03.560 That's another insight in the book.
01:56:05.400 He was trying to save humanity from the Jewish worldview, which together with Christianity
01:56:10.380 had taken over.
01:56:11.380 And I just told you off the air, that's Alexander Dugan.
01:56:16.180 That is exactly the kind of thinking that Alexander Dugan, who is now the go-between between Putin
01:56:23.600 and the clerics in Iran, he's putting that deal together.
01:56:31.380 He is celebrating the return of the promised one in his own language.
01:56:37.120 But that's, you know, the 12th Imam kind of language.
01:56:41.880 And there are these people that are looking to set the entire world on fire just the way
01:56:50.180 you say Adolf Hitler was doing.
01:56:52.180 Adolf Hitler and the Persians today.
01:56:54.360 This is the Mahdi.
01:56:55.720 They're waiting for the destruction of the world, which is why, you know, in one of my
01:56:59.340 earlier films, The Third Jihad, you know, I did Obsession.
01:57:01.860 Yeah, yeah.
01:57:02.220 And The Third Jihad, we talked to Bernard Lewis, and he said, you know, there's MAD, mutual
01:57:09.060 assured destruction, which kept Russia and the United States from using their weapons.
01:57:14.160 But he said for the Persians, for the Iranians, it's an inducement.
01:57:18.520 They want to use the weapons, and they will use it against Europe and Israel, because for
01:57:23.600 them, they're bringing destruction to the world.
01:57:25.500 And that will enhance the coming of the Mahdi, and Islam will reign victorious in the planet.
01:57:32.900 So the idea is that this idea from the Mufti took the handoff from Adolf Hitler in World
01:57:39.660 War II.
01:57:40.680 And since then, the Nazis were finished, but radical Islamists have continued the war against
01:57:45.980 the Jews, against Judeo-Christian values.
01:57:48.460 And that's been going on for 80 years, and we're living with this.
01:57:51.820 Is Iran the head of the snake, or is there a head?
01:57:56.460 Iran is definitely the head of the snake, at least at this time.
01:57:59.820 You know, there's-
01:58:00.700 No, it'll move.
01:58:01.800 It always jumps.
01:58:02.840 Yes, exactly.
01:58:03.940 It always jumps.
01:58:04.500 Exactly.
01:58:04.900 But they need to be dealt with.
01:58:07.120 And I'm praying that with the help of Trump, we're very happy.
01:58:11.300 Those of us living in Israel are very happy with the new administration.
01:58:14.420 I gotta believe.
01:58:14.640 I mean, the stuff that we were doing, and we're finding out more and more that our government
01:58:19.000 was doing, my gosh.
01:58:21.660 Right.
01:58:22.620 Holy cow, were we-
01:58:24.560 You know, I've said this before, that we don't know, Americans don't understand how dark of
01:58:33.100 a country we have been at times.
01:58:35.120 Right.
01:58:35.360 And in the last five years, four years, wow, did we go dark, and wow, were we on the wrong side.
01:58:43.540 And you're right.
01:58:44.680 It makes no sense, a country or an administration that was for, you know, pushing trans rights
01:58:52.640 and gay rights and trans surgeries and all of this stuff, to be on the side of Hamas and
01:59:00.760 Hezbollah and Iran, it makes no sense.
01:59:05.060 No sense.
01:59:06.320 Right.
01:59:06.800 Other than it's just evil and madness.
01:59:10.740 Yes, indeed.
01:59:11.900 And it's interesting, when you asked about European anti-Semitism, so the new election
01:59:17.720 in Germany right now, even the guy who got the most, his name's Merz, he got the most
01:59:23.740 votes.
01:59:24.460 He criticized the Biden administration for withholding weapons from Israel.
01:59:29.700 Yeah.
01:59:29.840 So you do have growing far right in Germany, which is of concern when you're thinking about
01:59:37.040 anti-Semitism.
01:59:37.780 And at the same time, they're worried about their Muslim population over there, and that's
01:59:42.360 where most of the anti-Semitism comes from.
01:59:44.880 You know, you look at J.D. Vance, what he said about, you want to worry about Iran having
01:59:51.060 a nuclear weapon, the first country that's going to have multiple nuclear weapons that
01:59:55.640 is Islamic will be England.
01:59:58.620 And you see these countries, these Western countries, they are going to fall to Islam.
02:00:04.940 And that is a terrifying thing.
02:00:08.320 And so when you look at, you know, the rise of the far right, I'm not even sure what that
02:00:14.560 meant.
02:00:14.680 I know what Hitler meant.
02:00:16.260 You know, I know what that is.
02:00:17.420 But I don't trust anybody that's just labeling people.
02:00:22.240 Right.
02:00:22.320 I agree with you.
02:00:22.940 Because it's not far right or crazy to say, I don't want to be an Islamic country.
02:00:30.060 And what you're doing is making us an Islamic country.
02:00:33.540 And the people who brought you to the party, elites, you are claiming we're the bad guys.
02:00:39.940 I love my country.
02:00:41.420 I just, I want to live in peace.
02:00:43.220 And I mean, it's nuts.
02:00:44.820 I'll read to you.
02:00:45.340 This is the manifesto, the 2017 manifesto of what's called the far right party.
02:00:51.720 And it's interesting.
02:00:52.700 It's fascinating.
02:00:53.500 They say like this, that Islam does not belong in Germany.
02:00:57.720 The AFD sees the spread of Islam in the presence of over 5 million Muslims whose numbers are
02:01:02.220 constantly growing as a great danger to our state, our society, and our system of values.
02:01:07.500 Now, that is not.
02:01:08.580 That's not crazy.
02:01:09.480 That's not crazy.
02:01:10.680 It's not.
02:01:11.300 It's obviously a problem if they start hating and beating up Muslims in the street.
02:01:15.900 Yes.
02:01:16.180 But in and of itself, it's reasonable, especially because the Islamic minorities throughout Europe
02:01:22.520 have not assimilated to become regular Europeans.
02:01:25.900 I'm not saying none of them do.
02:01:27.820 But the vast majority have no desire to become German or Swedish or English.
02:01:33.480 And they've created a lot of civil problems and terror problems.
02:01:37.080 So it's rampant.
02:01:38.200 Every other day, there's another terror attack or car ramming and terrible things are happening.
02:01:44.220 So they're dealing with these problems.
02:01:45.740 And the right wing is saying, let's have a conversation.
02:01:48.440 Let's discuss it.
02:01:49.340 Let's develop policies for this.
02:01:51.220 And the left wing is ignoring it.
02:01:53.540 They're either afraid or naive.
02:01:55.040 And that's why we see the rise of the right in Europe.
02:01:59.640 Rabbi, as always, thank you so much.
02:02:02.080 The name of the book and the documentary, Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Jew?

02:03:42.580 This is Glenn Beck.
02:04:04.980 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
02:04:06.640 Let's see, what are the insiders saying on the Blaze feed?
02:04:11.840 If you're a Blaze TV subscriber, as you're watching the feed, you can comment.
02:04:16.180 And what are the general comments that are coming through?
02:04:19.640 There's two main ones we're getting right now.
02:04:21.780 One is, why are there a bunch of Star Wars figures behind the guest, as he's talking about
02:04:26.600 anti-Semitism?
02:04:30.340 It's an interesting question.
02:04:31.500 Yeah, we move, that's Darth Vader, C-3PO, and R2-D2.
02:04:36.440 Darth Vader is from the original New Hope, and it's in the lobby of the movie studios,
02:04:42.460 and we just moved them there.
02:04:43.700 And it bothers the heck out of me as well, because I keep seeing it at the side of my
02:04:47.320 eye, and I'm like, who's this weird family standing there?
02:04:49.960 Right.
02:04:50.760 Yes.
02:04:51.040 I just feel like somebody's standing there.
02:04:52.420 We might want to move those, yeah.
02:04:53.660 Yeah, and the rest of them are people chiming in on the 0-10 scale for Epstein.
02:04:58.200 Where do you put that?
02:04:59.040 What's the consensus?
02:04:59.720 See, I would say pretty low, on the lower side, like maybe an average of 4.
02:05:04.600 There's some 10s, there's some 0s, some negative 10s, but I would say a little bit lower than
02:05:09.760 average.
02:05:10.200 I mean, if 3 or 4.
02:05:11.360 It becomes a 10 if they have a name and they prosecute.
02:05:14.420 This is Glenn Beck.
