00:00:00.000 Did you lock the front door?
00:00:04.060 Check.
00:00:04.620 Closed the garage door?
00:00:05.780 Yep.
00:00:06.300 Installed window sensors, smoke sensors, and HD cameras with night vision?
00:00:09.780 No.
00:00:10.620 And you set up credit card transaction alerts, a secure VPN for a private connection,
00:00:14.060 and continuous monitoring for our personal info on the dark web?
00:00:17.080 Uh, I'm looking into it?
00:00:19.600 Stress less about security.
00:00:21.360 Choose security solutions from Telus for peace of mind at home and online.
00:00:25.220 Visit telus.com slash total security to learn more.
00:00:28.780 Conditions apply.
00:00:30.000 First, for years, advanced hearing aids have come with a catch.
00:00:33.060 Endless appointments, tiny batteries, complex apps that they're designed for somebody else.
00:00:38.480 It's amazing how companies can turn something as simple as a hearing aid into a science project.
00:00:43.360 But Audion took a different approach.
00:00:45.860 They started with one simple question.
00:00:47.500 What if a better hearing aid didn't need to be complicated?
00:00:50.480 What if you could put them in, turn them on, and you'd have a little screen that was part
00:00:53.920 of a little case that you would use?
00:00:55.780 No Bluetooth pairing, no fuss.
00:00:57.400 Just tap the screen, adjust your sound, and step back into the conversation.
00:01:01.240 I have to tell you, complex hearing aids are so, they're so nasty.
00:01:05.000 Because you're constantly, wherever you are, you're trying to adjust it.
00:01:07.920 This makes it so simple.
00:01:09.200 And the Atomax was designed by audiologists who know that clarity should not require a lesson
00:01:15.380 in technology.
00:01:16.720 They are $98.
00:01:18.560 That's a couple of thousand dollars less than the, you know, the really good ones, I guess.
00:01:23.300 And they're fantastic.
00:01:24.980 $98.
00:01:25.720 No prescription.
00:01:26.680 No waiting rooms.
00:01:27.580 No middleman.
00:01:28.800 You buy them over the counter, and it is really, really good.
00:01:32.340 Don't wait.
00:01:32.900 Start hearing again.
00:01:34.360 Audionhearing.com.
00:01:35.540 Hello, America.
00:01:38.220 You know we've been fighting every single day.
00:01:40.020 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're
00:01:45.320 trying to feed you.
00:01:46.300 We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth, because you deserve it.
00:01:51.180 But to keep this fight going, we need you.
00:01:53.720 Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck Podcast?
00:01:57.060 Give us five stars and lead a comment, because every single review helps us break through
00:02:01.980 Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
00:02:06.240 This isn't a podcast.
00:02:07.580 This is a movement, and you're part of it, a big part of it.
00:02:11.060 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this
00:02:14.800 podcast to the top.
00:02:16.160 Rate, review, share.
00:02:17.780 Together, we'll make a difference.
00:02:19.880 And thanks for standing with us.
00:02:21.160 Now let's get to work.
00:02:27.060 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:02:50.500 Oh, oh, oh.
00:02:52.340 Oh, oh, oh.
00:02:56.620 Yeah.
00:02:56.780 Down the road where shadows hide
00:03:00.900 Feel the dark on every side
00:03:03.520 Stand your ground when times get tired
00:03:06.140 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire
00:03:08.960 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:03:15.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:21.660 I want to talk to you about some pretty serious stuff here about the economy.
00:03:25.420 What is happening with China and what direction we're headed in.
00:03:30.160 Gold is up to $4,100, just over $4,100 today.
00:03:33.860 It was on its way to $4,200 yesterday.
00:03:36.260 It's kind of come down just a little bit.
00:03:37.660 The silver, I mean it was, you know, it's traditionally around $12 an ounce.
00:03:41.640 It's over $50.
00:03:42.740 Something is happening with the economy
00:03:44.380 and I want to point out something very disturbing.
00:03:47.340 We'll explain that coming up in just a second.
00:03:49.240 First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
00:03:52.500 Listen, I saw the same videos you saw yesterday.
00:03:54.760 And it was amazing.
00:03:57.820 Watching the families return home,
00:03:59.800 families embracing the possibility of peace flickering on the horizon.
00:04:03.240 After so many years, decades, centuries of heartbreak and war,
00:04:07.400 we're seeing glimpses of something we prayed for
00:04:09.340 and that is a restoration of peace.
00:04:11.560 But even now there are families in Israel who have lost everything.
00:04:14.500 There are elderly survivors who can't afford heat or food.
00:04:17.320 There are children who wake up to sirens and still need hope to hold on to.
00:04:20.560 The Arab world is now finally going to be able to go in and help the Gazans
00:04:25.440 and we can help the Israelis.
00:04:27.600 They've lost everything.
00:04:29.080 You can't afford food or heat.
00:04:30.760 They have to rebuild.
00:04:32.360 For over 40 years, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
00:04:35.580 has stood in that gap, bringing Christians and Jews together to lift up the broken,
00:04:39.260 feed the hungry, and bring comfort where the world has fallen silent.
00:04:42.660 They're not just responding to a crisis, they are rebuilding lives.
00:04:46.400 And day after day, the fellowship teams are on the ground,
00:04:49.100 hand-delivering boxes of food and feed and stuff that feed people
00:04:53.600 and comfort to the poorest of the poor, particularly the elderly.
00:04:57.460 And I encourage you, put your faith into action.
00:05:00.440 Faith requires action.
00:05:02.500 Take your part in IFCJ's mission.
00:05:04.700 Find out how and what their mission is at ifcj.org.
00:05:08.320 That's ifcj.org.
00:05:11.860 All right, told you about gold here at record highs.
00:05:15.280 And it is telling us something.
00:05:18.820 Usually it would tell us that the dollar is in real, real trouble.
00:05:21.760 I think, and I am guessing at this now,
00:05:24.960 but I think what this is telling us is that the whole world,
00:05:28.060 the whole system is in trouble.
00:05:29.820 And let me give you an example.
00:05:31.540 I'm going to talk to you about something to try to make sense of it here,
00:05:34.900 but I don't have a good answer because we're not having these conversations.
00:05:40.560 I have told you for almost 20 years when it comes to AI,
00:05:44.680 we must have these conversations now because the world is going to change overnight.
00:05:49.860 And we are at that point.
00:05:51.640 We are at the point of singularity where there is no turning back.
00:05:55.140 And we haven't had these conversations.
00:05:58.080 Do you want to win the AI war?
00:06:00.720 I will tell you, we cannot lose it.
00:06:03.220 But to win it, we may have to sacrifice so much on the altar of liberty
00:06:10.680 that I don't want to fight it.
00:06:13.460 So what do we do?
00:06:16.620 Let me explain.
00:06:17.760 Something has shifted in the world, and most people cannot feel it yet.
00:06:21.620 But if you're paying attention, you understand there is something on the horizon.
00:06:26.420 One day soon, we're going to wake up and we're going to realize,
00:06:29.560 uh-oh, I think we crossed a line here.
00:06:31.300 We're quietly, silently, while no one was paying attention, everything changed.
00:06:37.100 Over the past few days, while the world has been paying attention to what is going on
00:06:40.660 in Israel and the Middle East, there's a couple of other really important headlines
00:06:45.460 that have caught my attention.
00:06:48.460 And at first, they all seemed unrelated, just random stories from around the world.
00:06:52.960 But when you look closer, and this is what I think I do best,
00:06:55.820 I take things that are seemingly unrelated and say,
00:06:59.760 wait a minute, wait a minute, I think they all fit into this category.
00:07:02.220 So let me give you some threads here.
00:07:04.120 First thread is China.
00:07:06.780 Beijing just tightened its grip on rare earth elements.
00:07:10.700 These are the minerals that make absolutely everything possible.
00:07:15.400 Your smartphone, your electric car, your missile defense system,
00:07:18.940 your refrigerator, everything depends on these rare earth minerals.
00:07:25.760 China, because of our inaction and stupid policies over the last couple of decades,
00:07:31.960 control now 80% of the world's supply chain.
00:07:35.180 That cannot stand.
00:07:37.880 Now what they're doing is they're choking it off.
00:07:40.960 They are now closing it up, and they are threatening the West,
00:07:44.600 no more rare earth minerals.
00:07:47.360 If that happens, we cannot defend ourselves.
00:07:52.200 Do we have rare earth minerals?
00:07:54.160 Yeah, we have lots of them.
00:07:56.020 But we're not mining them.
00:07:57.900 It will take a decade to start mining them up in Alaska,
00:08:01.680 where they mainly are.
00:08:03.740 That's why Donald Trump was saying,
00:08:05.940 we need Greenland.
00:08:08.300 That's what he was saying, rare earth minerals.
00:08:11.020 Because they're already mining them there,
00:08:12.820 and we cannot lose them.
00:08:14.480 Now, they're choking it off,
00:08:17.780 and rare earth stocks exploded overnight.
00:08:21.000 Because whoever controls those minerals controls the future.
00:08:25.760 Now here's the second thread.
00:08:27.680 The Pentagon.
00:08:29.400 Out of nowhere, they made a billion-dollar emergency order
00:08:33.320 for those same rare earth minerals.
00:08:35.760 That's not normal.
00:08:38.260 That's not paperwork.
00:08:39.940 That is the sound of a military quietly preparing for something.
00:08:44.380 A shortage.
00:08:46.340 Possibly in a storm.
00:08:48.560 Like I said,
00:08:50.100 we are, because of what Biden did in Ukraine,
00:08:53.300 we are wholly unprepared for any kind of military action.
00:09:01.140 We don't have the materials.
00:09:03.040 And at the same time,
00:09:04.560 everything is changing to high tech.
00:09:07.420 We don't have the rare earth minerals,
00:09:09.600 and the chips now,
00:09:11.080 to make our guided missile systems.
00:09:13.220 The third thread.
00:09:16.100 JPMorgan Chase,
00:09:17.340 one of the most powerful institutions on the planet,
00:09:20.560 just announced this week
00:09:21.980 a $1.5 trillion investment plan
00:09:25.220 in what they called
00:09:26.080 security and resilience.
00:09:29.140 That's not going to mom-and-pop shops.
00:09:31.480 That's not going to community loans.
00:09:33.740 That money is being funneled straight into
00:09:36.420 AI, defense manufacturing,
00:09:39.120 and critical minerals.
00:09:40.580 It's as if the Pentagon and Wall Street
00:09:43.920 just linked arms
00:09:45.260 and decided to build a fortress economy together.
00:09:50.640 Then came the fourth thread.
00:09:53.560 Nobody paid attention to this one.
00:09:55.660 In Europe,
00:09:56.780 the Dutch government just seized control
00:09:58.680 of the Chinese-owned chipmaker
00:10:00.760 on their own soil.
00:10:03.520 They invoked emergency powers
00:10:05.780 and nationalized the company
00:10:07.700 to stop the Chinese influence
00:10:09.440 over the semiconductor industry.
00:10:12.680 That's not good.
00:10:14.680 Four stories,
00:10:16.140 four continents,
00:10:17.760 four quiet tremors in the ground.
00:10:21.260 When you weave them all together,
00:10:23.780 that's when you begin to understand
00:10:25.400 what all of this means.
00:10:26.780 So let me try to do that.
00:10:28.960 The old world,
00:10:30.440 as we know it,
00:10:31.620 is dying.
00:10:32.640 The world of free markets,
00:10:34.940 the world of open trade,
00:10:36.720 individual enterprise,
00:10:38.020 the world that lifted billions
00:10:40.160 out of poverty,
00:10:41.200 is being replaced now,
00:10:43.140 slowly but surely,
00:10:44.460 by something new.
00:10:46.080 And this one
00:10:46.980 is being done
00:10:48.560 in the name of security.
00:10:49.980 And I don't have an answer for this.
00:10:53.260 This is why we must pay attention
00:10:55.360 and talk about it now.
00:10:58.540 Corporations now
00:10:59.440 are aligning with state power.
00:11:01.000 before we had the tech industry
00:11:03.740 aligning itself with the government
00:11:05.900 to control speech.
00:11:08.520 This is the government
00:11:09.820 aligning themselves
00:11:10.920 with tech,
00:11:12.780 rare earth minerals,
00:11:13.880 et cetera, et cetera,
00:11:14.560 to be able to win the AI war.
00:11:18.740 This,
00:11:19.660 this,
00:11:20.120 all of this
00:11:20.880 is a single unspoken motive,
00:11:24.160 and that is
00:11:24.740 the race to dominate
00:11:26.100 artificial intelligence.
00:11:27.400 This is the new arms race.
00:11:30.180 This is the new
00:11:31.460 Manhattan Project,
00:11:32.760 the new nuclear weapon,
00:11:34.220 except this is
00:11:35.080 a million times
00:11:37.040 more enslaving
00:11:38.540 than nuclear weapons
00:11:39.520 could ever hope to be.
00:11:41.860 Whoever masters
00:11:43.440 this first,
00:11:46.740 whoever gets to AI
00:11:48.300 and AGI first,
00:11:50.680 will control
00:11:51.720 the economies,
00:11:52.840 the information,
00:11:53.880 even your thought itself.
00:11:56.280 Every rare earth mineral,
00:11:59.480 every chip,
00:12:00.300 every line of code,
00:12:02.180 they're all ingredients
00:12:03.500 in that same contest,
00:12:05.500 and the nations
00:12:06.140 are moving fast.
00:12:07.880 They're hoarding materials now.
00:12:10.160 We're beginning
00:12:10.780 to seize companies.
00:12:12.660 They're building
00:12:13.640 walled-off supply chains.
00:12:15.420 This is happening
00:12:16.140 on their side
00:12:16.880 and our side,
00:12:17.980 and the free market
00:12:18.900 in this particular place
00:12:20.800 is no longer free.
00:12:22.460 It's being drafted
00:12:23.380 into a digital cold war.
00:12:26.280 Now,
00:12:27.600 that sounds bad,
00:12:29.420 but now let me tell you
00:12:30.200 the danger
00:12:30.840 that nobody seems to get.
00:12:35.100 When nations go to war,
00:12:37.400 even an economic war,
00:12:39.640 freedom always becomes
00:12:41.240 a casualty.
00:12:42.820 We tell ourselves
00:12:44.140 we're fighting for liberty,
00:12:46.880 and we are,
00:12:48.300 because we don't want
00:12:49.460 to live in a society
00:12:50.640 like China, right?
00:12:51.960 I don't.
00:12:53.620 But when survival's
00:12:54.820 on the line,
00:12:55.600 governments tighten control
00:12:57.040 for our own good.
00:12:58.740 They regulate.
00:12:59.940 They ration.
00:13:01.320 They censor.
00:13:02.560 And one day,
00:13:03.440 you look up
00:13:03.920 and you realize
00:13:04.740 the line between democracy
00:13:07.600 and technocracy
00:13:10.460 is gone.
00:13:11.960 If the West wants
00:13:15.600 to win this AI war,
00:13:17.100 and we must,
00:13:19.520 then we have
00:13:20.780 to have a conversation.
00:13:22.480 Why are we even
00:13:23.420 fighting this war?
00:13:25.020 Because if,
00:13:26.580 in winning it,
00:13:27.220 we become China,
00:13:28.280 why not let China
00:13:29.340 just win?
00:13:30.420 If we adopt
00:13:31.420 the same top-down control,
00:13:33.100 the same surveillance,
00:13:34.260 the same merger
00:13:35.020 of government
00:13:35.600 and corporate power,
00:13:36.700 then what did we
00:13:38.060 actually win?
00:13:39.320 Didn't we just trade
00:13:40.680 one master for another?
00:13:44.460 The old global system,
00:13:47.080 free enterprise,
00:13:47.980 open markets,
00:13:48.720 individual liberty,
00:13:49.700 it is being rewritten
00:13:51.280 in real time.
00:13:53.480 And the threads
00:13:54.420 are now all coming together
00:13:56.020 and they're weaving
00:13:57.720 a new tapestry.
00:14:00.220 I don't know
00:14:01.480 what the tapestry looks like.
00:14:02.920 I can guess
00:14:03.540 what that tapestry looks like
00:14:05.540 and I don't like it.
00:14:07.680 Will it be woven
00:14:08.720 from freedom
00:14:10.480 or will it be woven
00:14:11.580 from fear?
00:14:14.120 If we lose sight
00:14:15.800 of who we are,
00:14:16.580 look,
00:14:17.280 our global leadership,
00:14:18.580 it's already lost sight
00:14:19.640 for who we are.
00:14:20.180 They don't care.
00:14:21.440 They don't care.
00:14:22.600 None of them care.
00:14:23.880 They'll get to this
00:14:24.700 global dominance
00:14:25.940 over the individual
00:14:26.940 one way or another
00:14:28.460 in their book.
00:14:30.240 You must care.
00:14:31.960 You must stand
00:14:33.240 for freedom.
00:14:34.540 You must be
00:14:35.540 at the head
00:14:36.240 of having this conversation.
00:14:38.720 because
00:14:39.420 if we lose sight
00:14:41.640 of who we are,
00:14:43.880 this tapestry
00:14:44.860 is going to be
00:14:45.700 strong,
00:14:46.500 efficient,
00:14:47.480 and unbreakable.
00:14:49.300 But it will not
00:14:50.720 be free.
00:14:52.520 And someday,
00:14:53.700 historians are going
00:14:54.380 to look back
00:14:54.880 at this moment
00:14:55.660 and they're going,
00:14:56.080 what happened?
00:14:58.060 They're going to see
00:14:58.940 these quiet headlines,
00:15:00.660 these invisible decisions
00:15:01.680 that are being made
00:15:02.400 right now,
00:15:02.800 and they'll realize
00:15:03.420 this is when
00:15:04.680 the new world began.
00:15:05.700 They will be able
00:15:06.860 to look at this point
00:15:08.080 and say,
00:15:08.540 this was it.
00:15:10.420 Why didn't people
00:15:11.440 see it?
00:15:14.360 The answer to that
00:15:15.460 is obvious.
00:15:16.500 We're overwhelmed
00:15:17.680 with everything
00:15:18.360 that we have to do,
00:15:19.420 everything we're looking at.
00:15:21.100 This has been
00:15:21.760 a very well-planned
00:15:24.040 takeover of freedom.
00:15:27.300 You have to ask yourself,
00:15:29.240 when the weaving is done,
00:15:32.040 whose pattern
00:15:32.840 will we be living in?
00:15:37.240 Because that's
00:15:37.920 what is coming.
00:15:39.800 There's a story
00:15:40.580 in the show prep today
00:15:41.580 that I really want you
00:15:42.520 to read.
00:15:43.040 I'm going to talk to you
00:15:43.680 about it here in a second.
00:15:44.960 Western executives
00:15:46.160 who visit China
00:15:47.240 are coming back
00:15:48.200 terrified.
00:15:50.480 You don't have
00:15:51.440 any idea
00:15:52.200 how far China
00:15:53.820 is ahead of us.
00:15:56.800 And you can say,
00:15:57.880 well, I don't want
00:15:58.640 to be China.
00:16:00.460 Well, you will be China,
00:16:02.120 and China will be
00:16:03.580 controlling you
00:16:04.620 if we don't push back.
00:16:07.640 But how do we push back
00:16:09.340 without becoming China?
00:16:10.820 Listen to this next story.
00:16:12.300 You can find it
00:16:12.860 in our headlines
00:16:14.300 if you just go
00:16:15.000 and get the free
00:16:15.660 email newsletter

00:16:18.300 Western executives
00:16:19.240 who visit China
00:16:19.900 are coming back terrified.
00:16:21.100 I'm going to explain it
00:16:21.640 to you coming up
00:16:22.200 in just a second.
00:16:22.920 First, let me tell you
00:16:24.500 about our sponsor
00:16:24.980 of the Staff Hour.
00:16:25.620 It's Jace Medical.
00:16:26.520 Headlines this week
00:16:27.420 have been a mix
00:16:27.860 of relief and reality.
00:16:29.440 Good news.
00:16:29.920 In some places,
00:16:31.860 in chaos and uncertainty
00:16:32.940 still, you know,
00:16:34.060 just one turn away.
00:16:35.600 If there is one thing
00:16:36.720 the past few years
00:16:37.580 have taught us
00:16:38.160 it's that supply chain
00:16:39.200 systems and stability
00:16:40.360 can change overnight.
00:16:42.180 And when that happens,
00:16:43.260 the most fragile link
00:16:44.300 is sometimes the one
00:16:45.380 we take for granted,
00:16:46.340 our access to the medications
00:16:47.660 that our family needs.
00:16:49.500 Jace Medical was created
00:16:50.480 for exactly that reason.
00:16:52.280 They put emergency antibiotics
00:16:53.960 and essential medications
00:16:55.600 into your hands
00:16:57.000 before you need them.
00:16:58.800 You just fill out
00:16:59.580 a simple online form,
00:17:01.480 a licensed doctor
00:17:02.580 will review it,
00:17:03.560 and your Jace case
00:17:04.580 will arrive filled
00:17:05.640 with real prescription-grade
00:17:07.680 medicines for life's
00:17:09.360 what-if moments.
00:17:10.460 It's not fear,
00:17:11.500 it's responsibility,
00:17:12.520 because being prepared
00:17:13.400 is not paranoia.
00:17:15.040 It's what keeps
00:17:15.620 small problems
00:17:16.420 from becoming emergencies.
00:17:18.380 Whether that's a storm
00:17:19.420 or a delay
00:17:20.180 or a crisis
00:17:20.940 halfway around the world,
00:17:21.960 your family deserves
00:17:23.000 the peace of mind
00:17:23.840 that comes with Jace Medical
00:17:25.200 and their Jace case.
00:17:26.260 Be ready for the
00:17:27.580 before the world
00:17:28.520 reminds you
00:17:29.100 why you need to be ready.

00:17:41.180 Ten seconds,
00:17:41.880 station ID.
00:17:42.300 I am in Washington, D.C.
00:17:55.200 I'm actually at the
00:17:55.920 Rush Limbaugh studios
00:17:56.800 at the Heritage Foundation.
00:17:58.020 I can't thank them enough
00:17:58.820 for the short notice.
00:18:00.680 I was invited to the White House
00:18:01.720 over the weekend
00:18:03.320 to join the president
00:18:05.660 in honoring Charlie Kirk
00:18:07.960 on his 32nd birthday today.
00:18:10.660 by receiving
00:18:12.920 the Freedom Medal
00:18:13.780 and I'll be there
00:18:15.520 along with a lot
00:18:16.200 of other people
00:18:16.720 and I really can't wait
00:18:18.420 to experience that
00:18:19.820 and hope to have some time
00:18:20.560 with the president
00:18:21.040 later today
00:18:21.660 to talk about
00:18:22.140 some other things
00:18:22.640 because there's a lot
00:18:23.480 of things going on.
00:18:25.160 By the way,
00:18:25.580 you can watch this ceremony
00:18:27.400 at TPUSA,
00:18:29.540 Turning Point USA YouTube
00:18:31.280 and the Rumble channels
00:18:32.800 at 4 p.m. Eastern time
00:18:35.520 and I hope to see you there
00:18:36.860 and I'll be back
00:18:37.360 in the studios
00:18:37.920 in Dallas tomorrow
00:18:39.040 to give you more
00:18:40.640 about that
00:18:41.260 as we continue.
00:18:44.540 Okay, so let me give you
00:18:45.640 this story.
00:18:47.240 Western executives
00:18:48.340 visit China
00:18:49.260 who are coming back terrified.
00:18:51.000 Quote,
00:18:51.480 It's the most humbling thing
00:18:53.280 I've ever seen,
00:18:54.460 said Ford's chief executive
00:18:56.840 about his recent trip
00:18:57.900 to China.
00:18:59.020 After visiting
00:18:59.660 a string of factories,
00:19:00.880 Jim Farley
00:19:01.620 was left astonished
00:19:03.000 by technical innovations
00:19:04.920 being packed into Chinese cars
00:19:07.120 from self-driving software
00:19:08.360 to facial recognition.
00:19:10.240 Their cost and quality
00:19:11.780 of their vehicles
00:19:12.620 is far superior
00:19:14.520 to that on which
00:19:15.920 I see in the West.
00:19:18.440 We are in a global competition
00:19:19.980 with China
00:19:20.540 and it's not just EVs.
00:19:23.360 If we lose this,
00:19:24.920 listen carefully,
00:19:26.420 there is no future
00:19:28.160 at Ford.
00:19:31.360 If we lose this,
00:19:32.920 there is no future
00:19:34.460 at Ford.
00:19:37.880 Another executive,
00:19:39.080 this one from the EU,
00:19:40.520 says,
00:19:40.860 I can take you
00:19:41.380 to factories in China now
00:19:42.460 where you'll basically
00:19:43.240 be alongside
00:19:43.840 a big conveyor belt
00:19:44.980 and the machines
00:19:45.620 come out on the floor
00:19:46.920 and begin to assemble parts.
00:19:48.980 You're walking
00:19:49.380 alongside this conveyor
00:19:50.540 and after about 800 meters,
00:19:52.320 a truck drives out
00:19:53.620 and there are
00:19:55.280 no people involved.
00:19:58.100 Other executives
00:19:58.900 describe a vast,
00:20:00.900 dark factory
00:20:01.740 where robots
00:20:03.080 do so much
00:20:04.000 of the work alone
00:20:04.660 that there's no need
00:20:05.400 to even turn on
00:20:06.320 lights for humans.
00:20:08.180 We visited a dark factory
00:20:09.460 producing some
00:20:10.200 astronomical numbers
00:20:11.580 of cell phones.
00:20:13.400 The process
00:20:13.820 is so heavily automated
00:20:15.000 that there were no workers
00:20:15.920 on the manufacturing side,
00:20:17.220 just a small number
00:20:18.060 who were there
00:20:18.520 to ensure the plant
00:20:19.280 was working.
00:20:20.480 You get this sense
00:20:21.460 of change
00:20:22.040 where China's
00:20:22.640 competitiveness
00:20:23.280 has gone from being
00:20:24.320 about government subsidies
00:20:25.620 and low wages
00:20:26.560 to a tremendous number
00:20:28.540 of highly skilled,
00:20:29.680 educated engineers
00:20:30.620 who are innovating
00:20:32.080 like mad.
00:20:33.740 Between 2014
00:20:34.860 and 2024,
00:20:36.040 the number
00:20:36.480 of industrial robots
00:20:37.560 deployed in the country
00:20:38.940 rocketed from
00:20:39.620 189,000
00:20:41.040 to more than
00:20:41.640 2 million.
00:20:44.960 It is...
00:20:47.340 Just give you...
00:20:48.340 Just let me give you this.
00:20:49.720 Last year,
00:20:50.660 China added
00:20:51.460 295,000 robots.
00:20:54.420 Germany added
00:20:55.180 27,000.
00:20:56.960 The U.S.,
00:20:58.160 34,000.
00:20:59.700 The U.K.,
00:21:00.580 2,500.
00:21:03.320 The U.K. is over.
00:21:05.160 I mean,
00:21:05.440 it's just absolutely over.
00:21:07.240 It boasts
00:21:07.780 567 robots
00:21:09.780 for every 10,000
00:21:11.080 manufacturing workers,
00:21:12.920 449 in Germany
00:21:14.900 for every 10,000,
00:21:16.060 and 307
00:21:17.500 for the U.S.
00:21:19.200 So this is not...
00:21:21.100 This is...
00:21:22.160 I'm not preaching this
00:21:23.800 because this is,
00:21:24.800 you know,
00:21:25.400 good for the country.
00:21:26.100 It's bad for workers.
00:21:27.520 It's bad for workers.
00:21:30.760 But China is doing it
00:21:32.380 for a couple of things.
00:21:34.040 First of all,
00:21:34.420 their policy is known...
00:21:36.420 I can't pronounce it
00:21:37.260 in Chinese,
00:21:37.700 but it translates to
00:21:38.900 replacing humans
00:21:40.200 with machines.
00:21:42.280 In China,
00:21:42.780 they don't need to have
00:21:43.520 a Patriot Act,
00:21:44.960 a really super great thing
00:21:46.900 for auto workers.
00:21:49.120 Now,
00:21:49.760 replacing humans
00:21:50.860 with machines
00:21:51.620 is the name
00:21:52.260 of their policy.
00:21:53.240 Okay?
00:21:54.440 And it is...
00:21:56.060 It's happening
00:21:56.660 everywhere.
00:21:58.360 Everywhere.
00:22:00.320 They can develop
00:22:01.760 and execute models
00:22:03.000 in probably
00:22:03.800 half the time
00:22:05.400 that most European
00:22:06.980 car makers
00:22:07.640 can make.
00:22:10.220 And they're doing it
00:22:11.840 partially because
00:22:13.100 they see the decline
00:22:14.320 in their birth rates.
00:22:16.460 And they know
00:22:17.680 we're not going to have
00:22:18.740 the workers
00:22:19.240 to be able to do this.
00:22:20.340 But what's disturbing
00:22:21.820 is all of these robotics
00:22:24.020 are needing power.
00:22:26.460 They also need AI.
00:22:28.740 So they are building
00:22:29.880 these gigantic server farms,
00:22:32.180 which we are still
00:22:33.300 breaking ground on.
00:22:35.000 They're building them.
00:22:36.220 They're building
00:22:37.000 new power plants.
00:22:38.360 One power plant,
00:22:40.080 coal-fired power plant,
00:22:42.040 every week.
00:22:43.320 And I think 40...
00:22:44.620 Can you look this up, Stu?
00:22:45.740 I think it's 40
00:22:46.640 nuclear power plants
00:22:47.700 a year.
00:22:48.200 We're not building
00:22:50.140 anything.
00:22:51.080 We're not building
00:22:51.740 anything.
00:22:53.060 We're breaking
00:22:53.900 ground on it.
00:22:55.360 Trump has already
00:22:56.320 said he's cutting
00:22:57.240 all of the
00:22:57.940 regulations,
00:22:59.520 but we're still
00:23:00.760 far, far behind.
00:23:02.620 And we are getting
00:23:03.640 close to the point
00:23:04.940 where
00:23:05.300 they win,
00:23:06.320 we lose.
00:23:09.460 Again,
00:23:10.020 I don't know
00:23:10.360 what to do about it.
00:23:12.760 Except have a
00:23:13.580 conversation about it.
00:23:14.780 Because I've
00:23:15.440 read the conversations
00:23:16.840 from the left.
00:23:17.860 I've read the
00:23:18.560 conversations from
00:23:19.480 the World Economic
00:23:20.880 Forum.
00:23:21.780 And they don't care.
00:23:23.140 They will take you
00:23:24.360 and literally put you
00:23:26.120 in a drug...
00:23:27.720 a drugged state
00:23:29.920 and put you
00:23:30.760 online
00:23:31.600 and you're just
00:23:32.940 going to play
00:23:33.520 video games
00:23:34.280 your whole life.
00:23:34.880 That is honestly
00:23:36.000 their plan
00:23:36.720 for a large
00:23:38.340 number of
00:23:39.180 people in the
00:23:39.980 West
00:23:40.300 that will just
00:23:41.300 be
00:23:41.640 no longer
00:23:43.160 usable.
00:23:45.160 Undesirables.
00:23:45.680 Well,
00:23:46.660 I don't like
00:23:47.780 those labels.
00:23:48.600 I didn't like
00:23:48.980 them when the
00:23:49.340 Nazis said them.
00:23:50.340 I certainly
00:23:50.680 don't like them
00:23:51.320 when the
00:23:51.580 World Economic
00:23:52.180 Forum says
00:23:52.840 them.
00:23:52.960 This is
00:23:53.740 Glenn Beck.
00:23:56.380 More from
00:23:57.040 Washington, D.C.
00:23:57.720 here in just a
00:23:58.300 second.
00:23:58.600 First,
00:23:59.320 our sponsor
00:24:00.080 this half hour
00:24:01.180 is Chapter.
00:24:02.380 There is a
00:24:02.780 clock ticking.
00:24:03.880 And if you're
00:24:04.320 65 or older
00:24:05.420 or your parents
00:24:06.220 are turning 65,
00:24:07.520 it's counting
00:24:08.440 down to
00:24:08.980 December 7th,
00:24:10.060 a date which
00:24:10.920 will live in
00:24:11.680 infamy.
00:24:12.600 That is
00:24:13.120 the date
00:24:13.500 that Medicare
00:24:14.480 opens enrollment
00:24:15.680 and you miss
00:24:16.420 it and you
00:24:16.960 could be stuck
00:24:17.540 with the wrong
00:24:18.000 plan for an
00:24:18.700 entire year.
00:24:19.540 Higher costs,
00:24:20.780 limited doctors,
00:24:21.700 and surprises
00:24:22.220 you just can't
00:24:22.940 afford.
00:24:23.240 It changes
00:24:23.660 every year.
00:24:24.220 They change.
00:24:25.480 Coverage shifts,
00:24:26.340 prescriptions move,
00:24:27.620 tiers, the
00:24:29.380 providers drop
00:24:30.600 out.
00:24:30.900 The plan that
00:24:31.360 worked for you
00:24:31.760 last year might
00:24:32.440 cost you
00:24:32.820 thousands more.
00:24:33.860 That's why
00:24:34.320 Chapter exists,
00:24:35.300 to help you
00:24:35.740 get it right.

00:24:39.020 are not salespeople.
00:24:40.320 They're advocates.
00:24:40.920 They work for you.
00:24:42.580 They don't work
00:24:43.160 for the insurance
00:24:43.820 companies.
00:24:44.480 They analyze
00:24:45.280 every plan in
00:24:46.760 your area.
00:24:47.320 They're the only
00:24:47.680 ones that can do
00:24:48.240 this because it's
00:24:48.720 a tech company.
00:24:49.780 They show you
00:24:50.640 exactly what fits
00:24:51.900 your needs and
00:24:52.660 budget and they'll
00:24:54.400 walk you through
00:24:54.860 it and you can
00:24:55.580 switch in minutes.
00:24:56.580 You deserve to
00:24:57.260 spend your
00:24:57.640 retirement enjoying
00:24:58.540 life, not decoding
00:24:59.500 insurance and
00:25:00.300 paperwork.

00:25:18.980 from the Heritage
00:25:34.420 Foundation in the
00:25:35.820 Rush Limbaugh
00:25:36.360 studios.
00:25:37.240 By the way, love
00:25:38.560 the tip of the hat
00:25:39.400 to Rush Limbaugh.
00:25:40.260 Kevin Roberts is
00:25:40.980 here.
00:25:41.200 He's the president
00:25:41.760 of the Heritage
00:25:42.940 Foundation.
00:25:43.460 One of the bravest
00:25:44.000 guys I know, one of
00:25:45.780 smartest guys I know
00:25:46.940 and doing a lot of
00:25:48.540 great stuff.
00:25:49.960 The president kind
00:25:51.880 of distanced
00:25:52.400 himself from
00:25:53.220 Project 2025, which
00:25:55.300 is a heritage, if I'm
00:25:58.600 not mistaken.
00:25:59.120 But recently, he's come
00:26:03.820 out because Russ
00:26:05.480 Vogt is really kind
00:26:07.480 of the architect of
00:26:09.060 a lot of 2025
00:26:09.920 stuff, right?
00:26:11.380 And the president
00:26:12.580 has seemed to be a
00:26:13.980 little reluctant to
00:26:15.180 get down to it and
00:26:16.760 just slash Russ.
00:26:19.180 I loved Mike Lee's
00:26:20.300 thing.
00:26:20.520 He said he's, Russ
00:26:21.600 has been waiting for
00:26:22.300 this since puberty.
00:26:24.120 We have the
00:26:25.040 shutdown.
00:26:25.840 The president looks
00:26:26.960 like he might
00:26:27.800 unleash Rush.
00:26:29.440 That's a Russ.
00:26:30.720 That's really good
00:26:31.520 news because I've
00:26:32.740 been waiting for
00:26:34.040 this.
00:26:34.520 Are we going to do
00:26:34.960 it?
00:26:35.500 I think we're going
00:26:35.900 to do it.
00:26:36.480 And the reason we're
00:26:37.140 going to do it is in
00:26:38.280 every other policy
00:26:40.000 area, Glenn, and it's
00:26:41.000 great to be with you,
00:26:41.600 by the way.
00:26:42.320 Welcome to Heritage.
00:26:43.340 Thank you.
00:26:43.780 In every other policy
00:26:44.660 area, the president
00:26:45.700 has been so courageous.
00:26:47.220 I mean, think about
00:26:47.760 what's in the news
00:26:48.360 today with Israel.
00:26:49.660 Think about creating
00:26:50.900 peace all around the
00:26:52.140 world.
00:26:52.380 And for the first
00:26:53.440 time, and as long
00:26:54.280 as I can remember,
00:26:55.300 maybe since I was
00:26:56.280 going through puberty,
00:26:57.200 we're actually winning
00:26:57.940 the messaging on a
00:26:58.660 shutdown.
00:26:59.140 It's crazy.
00:26:59.760 It is.
00:27:00.240 But you know the
00:27:01.660 conservative, not just
00:27:02.640 the conservative base,
00:27:03.460 but the American
00:27:03.960 people, well, they
00:27:05.040 want real substantive
00:27:06.260 reform.
00:27:07.020 That's what they voted
00:27:07.660 for last November, and
00:27:08.800 we're not going to get
00:27:09.600 that unless Russ has
00:27:11.520 the opportunity to
00:27:12.860 work through these
00:27:13.560 reductions in force of
00:27:14.840 back office personnel to
00:27:16.880 actually work through a
00:27:18.440 responsible reduction in
00:27:19.880 the size and scope and
00:27:20.800 expense of government.
00:27:21.560 That's a kind of
00:27:22.680 long-winded way, Glenn,
00:27:23.820 of saying, I've got
00:27:24.600 great faith that
00:27:25.360 President Trump has
00:27:26.260 already told Russ, go
00:27:27.380 for it.
00:27:27.700 Let's get this done.
00:27:28.620 So when?
00:27:30.300 I'm sorry, I'm just
00:27:31.200 like a kid in a candy
00:27:32.160 shop.
00:27:32.360 I'll be clear.
00:27:32.940 When?
00:27:33.340 I don't know when
00:27:34.320 because I'm sitting
00:27:34.900 here on the outside
00:27:35.480 very happily, but I
00:27:36.540 can tell you, you
00:27:37.360 referenced our
00:27:38.140 transition project.
00:27:39.840 Since 1980, when
00:27:40.780 Heritage started, the
00:27:41.840 first of these, which
00:27:42.840 we called Mandate for
00:27:43.620 Leadership, we've been
00:27:44.320 talking about a
00:27:45.000 reduction in government.
00:27:46.100 This is the first
00:27:46.940 time we have a real
00:27:47.980 opportunity for this to
00:27:49.260 actually happen.
00:27:49.940 So what I can tell our
00:27:51.880 friend Russ and our
00:27:52.860 friend President Trump
00:27:53.720 and Vice President
00:27:54.380 Vance, something they
00:27:55.640 know, which is that
00:27:56.860 tens of millions of
00:27:58.200 Americans voted for
00:27:59.400 them for precisely this
00:28:01.440 to happen.
00:28:02.320 Full speed ahead.
00:28:03.900 Keep doing the
00:28:04.600 wonderful messaging that
00:28:05.920 every single member of
00:28:07.100 the cabinet does.
00:28:08.180 What should they be
00:28:09.220 cutting right now?
00:28:10.340 Well, look, when they
00:28:11.500 took office several
00:28:12.600 months ago, there were
00:28:13.580 nearly two and a half
00:28:14.500 million federal
00:28:15.220 employees.
00:28:15.760 We did an analysis
00:28:17.700 over the years at
00:28:19.180 Heritage, which
00:28:19.840 suggested that you
00:28:20.820 could have a third as
00:28:22.240 few of the federal
00:28:23.600 employees.
00:28:24.040 You could have fewer
00:28:24.700 than two million
00:28:25.360 employees.
00:28:26.200 That's a way of saying
00:28:27.260 that when the left
00:28:28.120 says, oh, you're
00:28:28.960 cutting the scientists
00:28:29.740 and all the essential
00:28:30.480 people, not at all.
00:28:31.540 You're cutting people
00:28:32.620 who are doing layers
00:28:33.960 and layers and layers
00:28:35.940 and no private
00:28:36.860 business.
00:28:37.720 Could you have that
00:28:38.620 kind of excess?
00:28:39.560 It's nothing against
00:28:40.260 those human persons who
00:28:41.340 are occupying those
00:28:42.080 jobs, right?
00:28:42.720 We care for them.
00:28:43.600 They're fellow Americans,
00:28:44.500 but some of them,
00:28:45.640 let's remember, are
00:28:46.600 ideological hacks who
00:28:48.780 have been protected by
00:28:50.080 an overwrought civil
00:28:51.880 service protection that
00:28:53.000 needs to be reformed as
00:28:54.120 well.
00:28:54.680 At Heritage, we're
00:28:55.520 saying, let's rip the
00:28:56.420 band-aid off and let's
00:28:57.380 do this once and
00:28:58.120 for a while.
00:28:58.280 So what happens?
00:28:59.540 Russ does this.
00:29:00.880 What kind of lawsuits
00:29:01.840 follow?
00:29:02.760 What, I mean, can this
00:29:04.580 be permanent?
00:29:06.220 Some of it can be
00:29:07.200 permanent.
00:29:07.840 And again, speculating
00:29:09.760 with some information
00:29:11.280 about how one might go
00:29:13.680 about this reform
00:29:14.520 theoretically, there are
00:29:16.260 probably hundreds of
00:29:17.340 thousands of jobs in the
00:29:18.540 federal government that
00:29:19.440 could be cut permanently
00:29:20.460 without any lawsuit that
00:29:22.560 actually has substance
00:29:23.620 behind it.
00:29:24.220 We're not talking about
00:29:24.980 just unilaterally
00:29:26.460 eliminating XYZ agency.
00:29:28.200 We're talking about going
00:29:29.400 agency by agency at
00:29:31.360 budget lines and
00:29:32.680 eliminating duplicative
00:29:34.460 jobs, the very kinds of
00:29:35.920 things that every private
00:29:37.160 business, especially a
00:29:38.220 small business, has to do.
00:29:39.480 This is common sense
00:29:40.460 reform.
00:29:40.900 But ultimately, to kind
00:29:42.100 of come back to your
00:29:42.780 opening question, Glenn,
00:29:44.120 it needs to happen now.
00:29:45.600 You've got, in Speaker
00:29:46.840 Johnson, a legislative
00:29:48.320 leader who is outstanding
00:29:49.940 on the substance and the
00:29:51.240 messaging of this.
00:29:52.120 He's actually popular with
00:29:53.380 the American people.
00:29:54.540 Crazy.
00:29:54.840 Press the advantage.
00:29:56.640 Now is the time.
00:29:57.460 And I can tell you, going
00:29:59.160 back to your comment about
00:30:00.360 our transition project,
00:30:01.800 Heritage led 110 other
00:30:03.540 conservative groups in
00:30:04.580 this transition project.
00:30:06.120 The conservative base is
00:30:07.240 there.
00:30:07.620 The American people are
00:30:08.540 there.
00:30:08.860 We want to see this
00:30:09.460 happen.
00:30:10.140 I will tell you, I've
00:30:11.420 been saying for the
00:30:12.220 last couple of weeks that
00:30:13.200 if the president would
00:30:14.580 just figure out a way to
00:30:15.460 make sure airplanes still
00:30:16.320 fall out of the sky, you
00:30:18.160 know, that the military is
00:30:19.940 paid for, that the checks
00:30:22.280 to the elderly and the
00:30:23.720 hungry are making it home,
00:30:25.700 just take care of the
00:30:28.160 essentials that the
00:30:29.400 Constitution says we're
00:30:30.400 supposed to.
00:30:31.900 Nobody would really see the
00:30:34.500 bad impact.
00:30:35.860 And you let this go for
00:30:37.160 eight weeks as long as the
00:30:38.380 airports are running fine.
00:30:39.580 As long as everything is
00:30:41.000 running on time that the
00:30:42.480 average person, they're
00:30:44.200 going to get to a point
00:30:45.240 where they're going to go,
00:30:46.020 why do we have all these
00:30:47.060 people?
00:30:47.620 Non-essential really does
00:30:49.220 mean non-essential.
00:30:50.320 No, it's true.
00:30:50.800 I was in Dallas Airport
00:30:52.620 Sunday, coming back from
00:30:53.820 watching my Longhorns beat
00:30:54.820 the Sooners, which was
00:30:55.500 awesome.
00:30:56.020 And an acquaintance of mine
00:30:57.140 who's reasonably
00:30:58.040 conservative said, you
00:30:59.360 know, isn't the shutdown
00:31:00.040 awful?
00:31:00.440 And this turned into a
00:31:02.760 kind of a public
00:31:03.380 conversation at this gate
00:31:05.180 at the DFW Airport, where
00:31:07.000 I said, well, it's awesome.
00:31:08.720 It's awesome because we're
00:31:09.780 not cutting the
00:31:10.460 scientists, which was her
00:31:11.500 accusation.
00:31:12.320 We're not cutting
00:31:12.940 essential employees.
00:31:14.540 There are TSA agents here.
00:31:15.840 There are air traffic
00:31:16.480 control people on the
00:31:17.380 tower.
00:31:17.880 There are no delays at the
00:31:19.140 airport.
00:31:19.580 We're paying the troops.
00:31:20.960 These are all matters of
00:31:21.960 justice.
00:31:22.580 How about we cut the fat?
00:31:24.220 And it's just common sense to
00:31:26.280 the average American, Glenn,
00:31:27.760 that there is a lot of fat in
00:31:30.120 a budget that has created a
00:31:31.900 $37 trillion national debt.
00:31:34.680 If we have any hope of
00:31:36.520 turning the corner
00:31:37.260 economically, financially,
00:31:38.840 fiscally in this country, it
00:31:40.300 starts with the shutdown.
00:31:41.680 I was just doing, I just did a
00:31:42.720 monologue on the price of
00:31:44.320 gold.
00:31:45.180 A little terrifying.
00:31:46.080 What is that telling us?
00:31:46.880 A lot terrifying.
00:31:47.620 Price of silver.
00:31:48.600 A little terrifying.
00:31:49.940 And then the grab and control
00:31:53.760 of China of the rare earth
00:31:55.380 minerals.
00:31:55.780 And I don't know how to
00:31:57.740 solve this one because right
00:32:00.460 now we're doing some things
00:32:01.940 that we have to do to be able
00:32:03.960 to win this AI race because if
00:32:06.660 we don't, China will win and
00:32:08.000 we'll all be China.
00:32:09.120 But if we fight it in the
00:32:11.480 wrong way, we'll just be an
00:32:12.900 American version of China.
00:32:15.540 You know, I don't like these
00:32:16.780 public-private partnerships,
00:32:18.380 et cetera, et cetera.
00:32:19.180 Where do you stand on that?
00:32:20.440 What are your thoughts on this?
00:32:22.160 Generally speaking, I and all
00:32:23.940 of us at Heritage do not like the
00:32:25.360 public-private partnerships.
00:32:26.860 And at the very least, giving the
00:32:28.280 administration benefit of the
00:32:29.480 doubt, we would like more
00:32:30.460 details about how they're going
00:32:31.880 to work.
00:32:32.620 But you make a really good
00:32:33.940 point that it is, it's not a
00:32:36.140 choice between either allowing
00:32:37.960 China to totally co-opt us, which
00:32:40.100 is the path we were on under
00:32:41.240 Biden, or basically to mimic China
00:32:43.980 and become a weaker version of
00:32:45.840 China.
00:32:46.140 We need to be America.
00:32:46.900 We need to have full-throated
00:32:49.140 endorsement of free enterprise and
00:32:50.840 the free market here with one
00:32:52.600 exception.
00:32:53.560 Anything that is in the realm of
00:32:55.440 national security, even my most
00:32:57.940 strident libertarian friends say,
00:33:00.240 yes, of course, Kevin, right now
00:33:01.720 the Chinese Communist Party is the
00:33:03.700 greatest adversary we've ever
00:33:04.960 faced.
00:33:05.540 Let's focus on that.
00:33:06.560 So that's a way of saying, I think
00:33:08.340 the solution to this, which is
00:33:09.680 pretty elegant and largely broadly
00:33:11.700 supported on the political right, is
00:33:14.040 focus on national security.
00:33:15.500 Let's make sure that we are ending
00:33:17.060 the ridiculous over-permitting and
00:33:18.900 regulation of our own rare-earth
00:33:20.720 minerals, let's also make sure, if I
00:33:22.760 may make this point, that Lockheed
00:33:24.920 Martin and Raytheon don't have what
00:33:27.240 is in essence a duopoly on military.
00:33:30.540 We want them to be involved, good
00:33:32.280 men and women, they're good
00:33:33.260 innovation, but there's even better
00:33:34.720 innovation coming from smaller
00:33:36.680 businesses that that is what really
00:33:39.520 needs to be honored.
00:33:40.420 And I think if we do that within a
00:33:42.340 couple of years, Glenn, it's going to
00:33:43.680 be obvious to Xi Jinping and his
00:33:45.420 cronies that the United States is back
00:33:47.400 on a level footing with them.
00:33:48.140 So how do we solve the energy
00:33:49.820 problem?
00:33:50.500 Well, you know, President Trump said
00:33:51.780 I'm going to eliminate all these
00:33:53.220 problems, we can build nuclear power
00:33:54.960 plants, et cetera, et cetera.
00:33:56.520 And I want that to happen, and I think
00:33:58.800 the government does need to be
00:34:00.940 involved, at least in just
00:34:02.880 deregulation of everything, while
00:34:05.100 keeping enough regulations to keep us
00:34:06.780 safe.
00:34:07.840 But we need massive build-out, massive
00:34:11.100 build-out.
00:34:11.840 We, you know, under FDR, it was, you
00:34:14.980 know, the government that built all the
00:34:16.300 dams and everything else.
00:34:18.360 How do you feel about that?
00:34:19.660 How do you feel about how this is
00:34:21.420 rolling out?
00:34:22.040 And are we making progress on this?
00:34:24.360 Because I don't see massive power
00:34:26.100 plants being built, and without it,
00:34:28.160 we're going to have rolling blackouts
00:34:29.940 and brownouts all across the country.
00:34:31.860 I agree with your diagnosis fully, and
00:34:34.460 I have been worried about that over the
00:34:36.380 years.
00:34:36.800 I'm more optimistic now because I've
00:34:38.960 had several meetings around the
00:34:40.340 country with people who are investing
00:34:42.100 in micronuclear plants.
00:34:43.920 And if the government does two
00:34:46.060 things, number one, get out of the
00:34:48.300 way, which specifically means stop the
00:34:50.840 over-regulation, the over-permitting of
00:34:52.880 any kind of nuclear, including these
00:34:54.260 small areas.
00:34:55.380 Which are completely different than the
00:34:56.840 old ones.
00:34:57.280 And the old ones were the safest energy
00:34:59.180 we've ever made in the history of man.
00:35:01.460 Yeah, that's right.
00:35:02.060 But these are even better.
00:35:03.680 And then secondly, let private business
00:35:05.980 do what private business does.
00:35:07.740 That private capital is going to flow into
00:35:10.020 those places.
00:35:10.740 I mean, think about places in southwestern
00:35:12.640 Pennsylvania, which, of course, should
00:35:14.200 have more coal plants.
00:35:15.700 I know.
00:35:15.920 But micronuclear is at least the best
00:35:17.960 short-term strategy, especially as we
00:35:19.820 think about all of the energy usage of
00:35:22.020 these data centers and of AI.
00:35:24.380 And so I'm real keen on that.
00:35:25.660 They will get it first.
00:35:26.440 But we need another 18 to 36 months of
00:35:29.280 this in order for us to have any hope
00:35:31.360 that in four or five years we aren't
00:35:33.300 going to have rolling blackouts.
00:35:35.680 It's an amazing time we live in, isn't
00:35:37.380 it?
00:35:37.500 Look, my kids ask me, you know, they're
00:35:39.680 teenagers, early 20s, and they're
00:35:41.480 optimistic because of their faith.
00:35:43.520 You know, they're supernatural evil.
00:35:44.500 But even more than that, or in addition
00:35:46.240 to that, I should say, they are still
00:35:48.560 very optimistic about America.
00:35:50.160 And do you know why?
00:35:51.600 Because they tell me, and they're all
00:35:53.180 Trump fans, all Vance fans.
00:35:54.900 They said, Dad, these men and the men
00:35:57.640 and women who are in the cabinet, we know,
00:35:59.920 fight for us and fight for America.
00:36:01.780 And even when they might get something
00:36:03.640 wrong or maybe half wrong, it's so rare.
00:36:06.420 And they just, they tell me they're
00:36:08.320 just so optimistic about the future.
00:36:10.120 When I hear them say that, and my wife
00:36:12.000 and I don't coach them to say that, I
00:36:14.000 can't help but think that these very
00:36:15.960 challenging times, we think about the
00:36:17.780 assassination of our mutual friend,
00:36:19.320 Charlie Kirk.
00:36:20.260 We think about all the nonsense that
00:36:21.780 goes on.
00:36:22.860 God has put us here at this time.
00:36:24.860 At this time.
00:36:25.200 And in this place.
00:36:26.180 What an honor.
00:36:26.780 And we can both fight and be zealous
00:36:28.960 and firm as you are every day, while
00:36:31.180 also being cheerful and attracting people
00:36:33.840 into this movement, because it's a
00:36:35.200 movement about the future of America,
00:36:36.860 the future of truth.
00:36:38.440 And we get to do it.
00:36:39.800 It's totally awesome.
00:36:40.860 And there's a change.
00:36:42.480 I mean, since the Charlie Kirk
00:36:43.880 assassination, there's a massive change
00:36:46.840 of hope that I think comes from the
00:36:50.520 spiritual movement that has been going
00:36:52.500 on.
00:36:52.740 I just purchased a book, a Bible, one of
00:36:56.300 the first Bibles to be printed in America.
00:36:58.340 We couldn't print a Bible under the king,
00:37:00.320 you know, for 200 years.
00:37:02.000 We win the war.
00:37:03.320 We go to Congress and we start printing
00:37:05.660 Bibles.
00:37:06.160 First one is the Aiken Bible.
00:37:09.280 And that was for use in schools.
00:37:11.260 And it's the only Bible that is endorsed
00:37:13.180 by Congress.
00:37:13.960 Says it on the front page.
00:37:15.640 An endorsement of Congress.
00:37:18.140 The Bible we just bought was the one that
00:37:21.740 was sponsored by George Washington.
00:37:23.780 And so at the top, because they were so
00:37:25.180 expensive to print, they would go to rich
00:37:27.060 people and say, hey, can you sponsor the
00:37:28.900 printing of this Bible?
00:37:29.660 They would put a lot of money in it so
00:37:31.160 others could buy it.
00:37:32.480 So all of the sponsors, George Washington,
00:37:35.960 the vice president, and his entire
00:37:37.680 cabinet, the testimony of Christ, we got
00:37:41.440 that and we thought, we're still doing
00:37:43.740 our investigation, but we are really
00:37:45.580 pretty sure that that is the last time a
00:37:49.800 president, vice president, and cabinet has
00:37:52.700 testified to the truth of the gospel from
00:37:56.980 that time until Charlie Kirk's funeral.
00:38:00.560 You know, as you were telling me the story
00:38:02.280 about the Bible, which I just learned as you
00:38:04.060 were telling me this, my historian head was
00:38:06.800 going through quickly, although I definitely
00:38:08.680 was listening, Glenn.
00:38:09.920 I promise you, my friend.
00:38:10.900 You can multitask.
00:38:11.900 A little bit.
00:38:12.920 Yeah, me too.
00:38:13.720 I was thinking, is there another, has there been
00:38:16.660 another event like that?
00:38:17.580 No.
00:38:17.760 Not until Charlie's memorial service.
00:38:19.840 When all of the, I mean, almost all of the
00:38:21.860 cabinet, the vice president, the president,
00:38:23.300 all stood up and testified of Christ.
00:38:24.720 It was incredible.
00:38:26.280 And people will say, oh, that's fascist.
00:38:28.180 No, no.
00:38:29.220 Look, the last time it was happening is when
00:38:32.380 we first had liberty under George Washington.
00:38:34.820 Isn't that crazy?
00:38:35.420 It is.
00:38:36.100 I remember when I was leading this college of
00:38:38.940 faith and we rejected student loans and grants
00:38:40.860 because we wanted to remain independent.
00:38:42.600 We had people who didn't share that faith.
00:38:44.080 This is a Catholic college who emailed me.
00:38:45.860 In fact, there was kind of an atheist guy from
00:38:48.040 New York who emailed me and said, I don't
00:38:49.900 agree with your faith, but I know that if that
00:38:52.940 gets violated, all of my rights are violated, too.
00:38:55.900 And it stuck with me as a common sense
00:38:58.040 endorsement of what Americans in our founding
00:39:00.200 and since have known.
00:39:01.660 Thank you so much.
00:39:02.660 Thanks for everything.
00:39:03.420 Thanks for being with you, man.
00:39:04.000 I appreciate it.
00:39:04.860 From the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts.
00:39:08.020 Let me tell you about our sponsor.
00:39:09.560 This half hour, this sponsor is Patriot Mobile.
00:39:12.260 You know, it would be bad enough if your mobile
00:39:13.580 company was only giving you the shaft in
00:39:15.260 terms of high monthly bills, but they're
00:39:17.560 they're doing that.
00:39:18.760 Yes.
00:39:19.180 But they're also adding insult to injury by
00:39:21.260 giving you some of your hard earned money
00:39:23.280 to causes that you don't agree with.
00:39:24.780 You agree with Planned Parenthood, social
00:39:27.280 campaigns, activism that works against the
00:39:29.320 values that you hold dear.
00:39:30.420 I don't want a dime going there.
00:39:31.720 But if you're with Verizon, you're actually
00:39:34.660 helping subsidize Planned Parenthood.
00:39:38.140 No, thank you.
00:39:39.480 That's why Patriot Mobile exists.
00:39:41.100 They're America's only Christian conservative
00:39:42.580 wireless provider.
00:39:43.440 And they're built on the idea that you shouldn't
00:39:44.940 have to compromise your values to get reliable
00:39:46.880 service.
00:39:47.280 And they use the same nationwide networks as the
00:39:49.780 big guys.
00:39:50.240 So you get excellent coverage.
00:39:51.520 All the five speed of 5G speeds without the
00:39:54.380 woke strings attached.
00:39:56.100 Now, every bill that you pay helps support
00:39:57.880 causes you actually believe in religious
00:39:59.740 freedom, sanctity of life, first responders
00:40:01.820 who protect our communities.

00:40:21.180 Here's a friendly tip.
00:40:22.960 Always drink upstream of the herd.
00:40:25.900 If you know, you know.
00:40:30.320 Glenn Beck.
00:40:31.300 You know, last time I was in Washington, D.C.,
00:40:54.040 my wife and I were walking down the street
00:40:55.880 and some black guy on a bicycle started
00:40:59.220 circling us and saying, today's the day I'm
00:41:00.960 going to kill me, a white man.
00:41:02.660 And, you know, as enjoyable as that is,
00:41:04.680 sure, on any American street, I didn't get
00:41:08.460 that.
00:41:08.860 Now, I've only been to Washington, D.C.
00:41:10.180 for about six hours, but I didn't get that.
00:41:11.880 And the train station is not a homeless
00:41:14.460 encampment.
00:41:15.660 So things are kind of looking up, kind of
00:41:18.460 looking up.
00:41:19.020 Wow.
00:41:19.320 That sounds like a fun trip so far.
00:41:21.260 So far.
00:41:22.040 So far.
00:41:23.200 I'm sure this won't be the case in New
00:41:26.360 York when they give away free buses under
00:41:28.740 mom, Donnie, that won't turn into every
00:41:31.980 one of those won't be a mobile homeless
00:41:35.240 encampment.
00:41:35.980 That's definitely not going to happen.
00:41:37.960 It's not so much worse than what Spanberger,
00:41:40.560 you know, wants to do in Virginia when she
00:41:43.200 is governor.
00:41:44.040 I mean, day one, she wants to make it a
00:41:46.760 sanctuary state.
00:41:47.980 And she thinks that it's a distraction for
00:41:50.040 local police to work with federal police,
00:41:51.940 which I've never heard it described as that.
00:41:54.400 But, you know, it's at least new and
00:41:55.880 interesting.
00:41:57.460 We have we have the the current lieutenant
00:42:05.040 governor, Winsome Earl Sears, on with us
00:42:07.140 here in just a second.
00:42:07.820 We're going to talk about her campaign.
00:42:08.900 She's what?
00:42:10.100 Five points behind.
00:42:13.040 Yeah.
00:42:13.320 Give her take.
00:42:14.520 Yeah.
00:42:15.160 Spanberger.
00:42:16.340 And those numbers are starting to close.
00:42:20.060 Hopefully, Virginia will come to its
00:42:22.220 senses.
00:42:22.640 I mean, I don't know why you would change.
00:42:24.340 Things are going well.
00:42:25.540 Why would you why would you say, you
00:42:27.740 know what?
00:42:28.020 We need a little more chaos on the street.
00:42:30.320 You know, why don't we why don't we reduce
00:42:32.580 the police force and let's stop working
00:42:34.540 with the feds?
00:42:37.080 Interesting.
00:42:38.200 Virginia, it's up to you.
00:42:41.240 This is Glenn Beck.
00:42:43.720 All right.
00:42:43.960 Let me talk to you a little bit about chirp.
00:42:45.720 You know, if you have a if you have a bad
00:42:47.440 back, like I have a really, really bad
00:42:49.100 back, there is there's all kinds of stuff
00:42:51.940 that you should know about.
00:42:53.600 One of them is chirp.
00:42:56.260 Chirp contour.
00:42:57.120 It is something that a friend of mine has.
00:43:00.000 You know, not everybody can afford a really
00:43:02.440 expensive massage chair or masseuse to come
00:43:04.720 over all the time.
00:43:05.720 And if you do have a massage chair, you can't
00:43:07.860 get that on the plane with you.
00:43:08.940 You can't take that to the hotel room.
00:43:11.100 Chirp.
00:43:11.540 You can.
00:43:12.280 It gives your spine a break for break from
00:43:14.280 the gravity, stress and tension that builds
00:43:16.140 up every day.
00:43:16.880 It is really good.
00:43:18.480 It combines spinal decompression, massage and
00:43:21.620 heat therapy all in one device.
00:43:23.660 It lives in your living room, lives, you
00:43:26.260 know, in your suitcase.
00:43:27.380 You can take it with you.
00:43:28.740 It is not physical therapy clinic, but it
00:43:32.840 lives with you and can adjust your back
00:43:35.780 shape, letting you choose from a soft, deep
00:43:38.740 tissue or a contoured massage.
00:43:40.800 It can save your, you know, your own
00:43:43.260 profile.
00:43:43.760 So your height, your intensity, heat level.
00:43:45.900 So relief always feels custom built.
00:43:47.680 It is really, really good.

00:44:55.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:45:01.900 Could the state of Virginia flip blue in the next election?
00:45:07.880 The answer is yes.
00:45:09.460 Now, it is close.
00:45:11.620 I really honestly don't know why, Virginia,
00:45:14.000 but, I mean, you were the one that had to be reminded about Santa Claus, I think.
00:45:19.800 Winston Earl Sears, she is the lieutenant governor.
00:45:23.660 She's an amazing, she's one of my favorite politicians.
00:45:26.560 She's joining us here in a second.
00:45:28.000 She is running for, you know, for governor of Virginia.
00:45:33.480 And the race is very, very close.
00:45:36.040 We're going to talk to her in just a second.

00:46:43.360 If you are in Virginia, you're hearing and seeing this ad on TV.
00:46:48.920 Would it take him pulling the trigger?
00:46:51.240 Is that what would do it?
00:46:52.720 And then you would say he needs to get out of the race?
00:46:55.620 Abigail, you have nothing to say?
00:46:59.200 Abigail.
00:46:59.600 What if he said it about your two children, your three children?
00:47:04.880 Is that when you would say he should get out of the race, Abigail?
00:47:10.400 You're running to be governor.
00:47:12.400 Ms. Earl Sears.
00:47:14.000 I mean, we're talking about murder.
00:47:15.500 We're talking about someone's life being taken from them.
00:47:19.540 Have you nothing to say about that?
00:47:22.660 Are you not going to address it?
00:47:25.560 Really, you can't go any further.
00:47:27.160 You're a governor.
00:47:28.440 You're supposed to stand up for all the people.
00:47:30.820 Are you saying political murder is all right?
00:47:35.180 Have some political courage.
00:47:37.160 What you have done is you are taking political calculations about your future as governor.
00:47:43.140 Well, as governor, you have to make hard choices.
00:47:46.020 And that means telling Jay Jones to leave the race.
00:47:49.480 It is one of the most powerful moments I've ever seen in any debate.
00:47:56.500 And I think we've seen some powerful moments in debates recently.
00:47:59.660 Winsome Earl Sears is with us now.
00:48:02.840 Winsome, when she refused to even look at you, was it your guess she would do that?
00:48:08.300 Or did you actually think she would respond?
00:48:10.560 Because I was dumbfounded by her response.
00:48:13.740 No, it occurred to me that she was, I thought she was being cowardice.
00:48:20.420 But then it occurred to me, no, she's being calculating and cunning, which is worse.
00:48:25.120 Because when you look it up, a calculating and cunning politician is one who uses methodologies to turn people against them.
00:48:32.200 They're manipulators.
00:48:33.120 And they're like three, four steps ahead of you.
00:48:35.480 But then, you know, she has former CIA training.
00:48:38.480 And it also says that they show no emotion.
00:48:42.460 And that's who she is.
00:48:43.940 At least if you're a coward, at some point you're going to get a backbone.
00:48:47.100 And you're going to say to yourself, my God, I've got to do the right thing.
00:48:49.720 But I never saw that in her.
00:48:51.740 She was cold.
00:48:52.820 And she was smirking so much.
00:48:55.360 And then, you know, she just adjusted herself.
00:48:57.440 And I'm thinking, this woman can't be governor.
00:48:59.520 She doesn't care about us.
00:49:01.560 So what was her calculation on that?
00:49:03.640 How was she planning on spinning that?
00:49:06.940 Well, because she's thinking, well, if I tell him to get out of the race, then these folks are going to be angry with me.
00:49:12.760 And if I tell him to stay in the race, then these folks are going to be angry with me.
00:49:16.740 And, you know, I have planned my life.
00:49:19.620 If you look at her life, she's lived a very careful, a very curated life, a very calculating life.
00:49:26.440 And you can see that, you know, now I've got to do this, and then I've got to do this, and then I've got to do this.
00:49:30.920 I don't know very many people who live that way.
00:49:32.740 I mean, we're all real people around here, and things happen to us, but they never seem to happen to her.
00:49:37.780 She always seems to, you know, just work her way.
00:49:40.820 And I'm thinking, my God, this is something else.
00:49:45.420 She doesn't have the right common sense ideas.
00:49:48.680 And when she knows what the right thing to do, she doesn't take those hits.
00:49:52.820 And I'm telling you, if you're running to be governor, you've got to have a backbone.
00:49:57.400 But she's more of a calculating, cunning person.
00:50:00.320 That's usually what we get now from the uber-left is calculation, and they won't tell you who they are until they start enacting, until they have power.
00:50:11.020 When she was asked about the question about boys being in girls' sports, it's another one.
00:50:15.380 She didn't give a yes or no.
00:50:17.340 Did she?
00:50:17.660 No, she didn't.
00:50:20.720 She just looked and stared off into space as if, you know, I got this.
00:50:25.020 I'm over this.
00:50:26.080 I'm above this.
00:50:27.320 You know, we don't elect our politicians from above us.
00:50:30.300 We elect them from among us.
00:50:31.960 And you need to come back and talk to me, you know, and ask me my opinion.
00:50:36.220 You know, I want to know, do you know me?
00:50:38.620 Do you see me?
00:50:39.740 Do you hear me?
00:50:40.960 Do you want to hear from me?
00:50:42.320 I didn't leave politics for 20 years and come back to be mealy-mouthed.
00:50:46.820 That's not what we want, and that's what she is.
00:50:52.860 She also wants to make Virginia a sanctuary state on day one, and she doesn't seem to understand the benefit of local police working with the federal government and federal police.
00:51:06.440 Can you explain this?
00:51:08.460 Oh, she does.
00:51:09.240 But, you see, they're trying to change things and what they do.
00:51:13.800 So she and people like her in politics, they divide the people.
00:51:19.000 They put in policies that, you know, have us at each other's throats so then they can say, see, this is why you need us.
00:51:26.220 And they, you know, ride in like the cavalry to come help us.
00:51:30.380 We don't need that, because if she had stopped the open borders, fentanyl wouldn't have flowed through and killed five Virginians every week.
00:51:40.880 If she had kept the borders closed, then we wouldn't have had the Chinese communist gangs.
00:51:45.620 We wouldn't have MS-13 and Truendal Agua and all those people come through.
00:51:49.940 We wouldn't be now seeing ICE, you know, having to do what they're doing to get those who are criminally illegal gone.
00:51:57.580 And so this is their doing.
00:52:00.520 And now they're saying, oh, look how bad ICE is.
00:52:03.680 Do you see what they're doing?
00:52:05.100 But you did it.
00:52:06.080 You started it.
00:52:07.000 And now you're on the other side.
00:52:08.800 I'm telling you, this is cunning stuff.
00:52:11.300 You really got to, you know, think about this hard.
00:52:13.820 There is a, Stu, what was the name of that Islamic organization that she was a part of right after September 11th?
00:52:22.680 She was very, very proud of being part of this.
00:52:26.240 And I don't know if you know.
00:52:28.500 Yeah.
00:52:28.920 The ISA school.
00:52:30.680 ISA school.
00:52:31.400 And I don't know if you're aware of her ties to, deep ties to Islamists in Virginia.
00:52:40.760 No, I'm not aware.
00:52:43.520 But see, that's the other thing.
00:52:45.460 You know, she's part of a group that, well, there are five schools here who will not protect our girls from the men coming into the bathrooms,
00:52:55.700 from the men standing full front, nude, in the locker rooms with girls.
00:53:00.700 And when we talk about these things, they try to make us look like we're the people who don't have any sense.
00:53:07.700 Even when I ask her about her own children, you know, Abigail, what if it's your child who comes and she's crying?
00:53:14.800 What are you going to do then?
00:53:16.080 Silence.
00:53:16.800 Nothing.
00:53:17.440 Nothing.
00:53:18.120 Just cold.
00:53:19.260 Just cold.
00:53:20.160 Who is this woman who wants to be our governor here in Virginia?
00:53:24.120 We can't have her.
00:53:25.100 She's going to destroy our business.
00:53:27.000 You know, we've created so many jobs here, over 250,000 job openings now, 276,000 people we've put back to work.
00:53:35.520 We've put in child care money.
00:53:37.260 We are keeping the right to work so you don't have to be forced to join a union and then drive up wages, which doesn't help anybody.
00:53:45.280 We've gotten rid of 91,000-plus job-killing regulations, and businesses are coming.
00:53:50.440 The U-Hauls are finally coming back to Virginia, stopping here.
00:53:54.180 She doesn't know how to do any of that.
00:53:56.080 She was never here when we were making all these great choices for Virginia.
00:54:00.340 So I don't need on-the-job training.
00:54:02.860 I have been doing the work.
00:54:04.820 Where have you been, Abigail?
00:54:06.620 Oh, in Congress making decisions against us.
00:54:09.580 Now, it was easy, right, when she was one of 435 members of Congress, but now she's by herself, and she's got to stand on all those decisions she's made.
00:54:21.140 Even Joe Biden, in his most lucid moments, vetoed a bill that she voted for, which kept D.C. where you see the crime is today.
00:54:30.140 She's soft on crime and voted for criminal penalties to be absolutely reduced for the most heinous crimes.
00:54:37.780 That's what she wants to do in Virginia.
00:54:39.660 And don't even talk about energy policy.
00:54:41.740 She has none.
00:54:42.600 Oh, it's solar and wind.
00:54:44.700 And what do we do?
00:54:45.960 What do we do when the sun isn't shining?
00:54:48.360 Isn't it actually worse than no energy policy?
00:54:52.240 Isn't the energy policy of Virginia pretty much the energy policy of California?
00:54:57.060 Aren't you guys tied together with the California regulations?
00:55:02.880 So we were until Virginians put Governor Youngkin and myself and our Attorney General, Jason Meyers, in office.
00:55:12.360 And we got us out of there because, wait a minute, Glenn, you did see that even Gavin Newsom now is suing the oil refineries and the gas industry because they want to leave California.
00:55:26.240 You've been against them, Gavin, all this time.
00:55:29.480 You and the other Democrats, and now you're suing them to force them to stay.
00:55:33.660 This is nonsense.
00:55:35.580 None of this makes any sense.
00:55:37.260 And, you know, Glenn, here's why this is important, that we have a head on our shoulders.
00:55:41.000 The Industrial Revolution is still happening.
00:55:43.500 Technological Revolution is still happening.
00:55:45.400 I was reading about China two days ago.
00:55:47.960 They have factories in China that don't even have any people.
00:55:51.040 The lights aren't even on because it's all robotic.
00:55:54.340 So while we're trying to figure out who a woman is, they have moved on.
00:55:59.860 China's going to eat our lunch if we're not careful.
00:56:02.000 So what is the big thing that would be the difference between you and a Youngkin administration and certainly a Spanberger administration?
00:56:14.180 What's the big thing that you bring to the table?
00:56:16.340 Well, we bring a continued success story.
00:56:21.680 And success begets success.
00:56:23.660 And for a long time, Abigail was running on our successes.
00:56:27.440 I mean, we've lowered taxes to the tune of returning $9 billion back to the people of Virginia.
00:56:33.460 Even as we kept our AAA bond rating, even as we up teacher pay 18%, even as we've been attracting businesses, even as we have decompressed the pay for our law enforcement and Department of Corrections personnel.
00:56:49.000 I mean, even as we've put in new programs to help those who are mentally ill.
00:56:53.960 I mean, we've done so we've put roads and bridge money.
00:56:57.120 We have done so much.
00:56:58.560 And it's because we know how to do this.
00:57:00.960 I mean, I've run my own business.
00:57:02.840 The governor has run businesses.
00:57:04.980 My opponent doesn't know any of this.
00:57:06.960 She would just destroy everything.
00:57:08.960 Put all those regulations back.
00:57:10.740 Put all those taxes back.
00:57:12.200 Put us back in the greenhouse gas initiative of California.
00:57:16.160 I mean, every single Democrat voted for this green initiative.
00:57:21.800 And you know what it's doing?
00:57:22.900 It's driving up our costs in Virginia.
00:57:25.760 And you've probably heard of our energy bills where people are paying $800 a month, up to $1,600 a month, and winter is coming.
00:57:35.060 This is what the Democrats have given us.
00:57:37.520 And when I'm governor, I'm going to repeal that darned act because it does nothing but drive up costs.
00:57:43.440 We cannot have Abigail.
00:57:44.800 She will destroy everything that we've done.
00:57:48.860 You know, I know nobody mentions this, and it's not really important.
00:57:51.680 It's not important to me, but it is worth mentioning, at least.
00:57:54.500 On the left, they'd be running.
00:57:55.880 This is all this campaign would be about.
00:57:58.180 You were the first woman elected to lieutenant governor, the first black woman and female veteran to hold a statewide office in Virginia.
00:58:04.540 You will be the first black woman to be a governor if you win in Virginia.
00:58:12.360 That's pretty remarkable.
00:58:13.480 It's remarkable for a country that everybody, you know, on the left keeps saying is a racist country.
00:58:20.960 You know who said we were not a racist country?
00:58:23.680 Biden.
00:58:24.560 And by the way, Kabbalah said that there was no systemic racism in America.
00:58:29.060 And they said that in 2021.
00:58:31.500 I guess they forgot that a little bit later because, what, their side wasn't liking that.
00:58:36.440 And I'm from a third world country.
00:58:38.420 Think of this.
00:58:38.960 I am an immigrant.
00:58:40.060 And yet here I sit, second in command in the former capital of the Confederate states.
00:58:45.800 Don't tell me that America is not a great country.
00:58:49.040 And yet we have enough people on the left teaching their children, Glenn, to hate their own country.
00:58:56.780 Their own country.
00:58:58.400 What in the world?
00:58:59.180 It's amazing.
00:59:02.260 Winsome, thank you so much.
00:59:04.000 We pray for you.
00:59:05.620 We hope you do really well in the election.
00:59:09.500 How long have the early voting been going on now?
00:59:14.280 Oh, we've been voting since, no, we're about in our fourth week now.
00:59:18.820 We've been voting since September 19th.
00:59:20.660 Yes, and this is what the Democrats have given us, open season.
00:59:26.020 And that's why we've got to win.
00:59:27.200 We've got to change things.
00:59:28.360 And, by the way, the polls are looking very good.
00:59:30.880 The Trafalgar poll shows that I am two down, but its margin of error is four.
00:59:35.980 So I'm either two up or right in the middle.
00:59:39.220 And the Washington Post, of all newspapers, I would hope that they would tell the truth.
00:59:44.780 But they're showing polls where I'm 13 down, and they know it to be a lie.
00:59:49.020 We can't have press like that.
00:59:51.080 This is America.
00:59:52.320 We look to our press to give us truth, or maybe not.
00:59:56.560 Yeah, I was going to say, Washington Post has kind of given up on, but I appreciate it.
01:00:00.820 Thank you so much.
01:00:01.400 We're going to talk about the polls here in just a second.
01:00:03.320 Winsome, thank you so much.
01:00:04.760 Where can people go to join your campaign and help you out?
01:00:08.400 Yes, she's out raising me four to one, but by the grace of God, we're still standing.
01:00:12.740 I need your help.
01:00:13.620 Winsome for governor.com.
01:00:15.820 Winsome, F-O-R, governor.com.
01:00:18.660 Thank you.
01:00:19.200 Thank you, Glenn.
01:00:19.920 Thank you.
01:00:20.600 God bless you.
01:00:21.180 Thank you.
01:00:22.020 I just love her.
01:00:23.000 I just think she would make a great, great governor.
01:00:26.680 She's really smart.
01:00:28.060 She's business-minded, common sense, and really has a lot of empathy.
01:00:34.160 I just love her.
01:00:35.460 Okay, back in just a second.
01:00:37.060 Let me tell you about Relief Factor.
01:00:38.340 You know, it would be great if somebody could just carry you around on a comfy bed all the time to work, the store, everywhere.
01:00:42.760 Wouldn't it be nice?
01:00:43.540 I mean, we should have been Egyptians, you know, like 3,000 years ago.
01:00:48.440 Of course, then you'd have to have slaves, so maybe not.
01:00:51.220 You could just, you know, move around again.
01:00:53.400 Maybe, you know, make your back and your knees and your shoulders.
01:00:56.100 If they would stop complaining for once, it would be really, really good.
01:01:00.180 I've looked into the carrying around on a bed thing is super expensive.
01:01:03.820 You know, much better is just to get rid of the pain with Relief Factor.
01:01:06.860 It's a daily supplement designed by doctors to support your body's natural response to inflammation, the kind that makes you feel like you're aging in dog years.
01:01:14.000 And it's made with ingredients that you've actually heard of, not something that sounds like a science project.
01:01:20.440 Take it consistently.
01:01:21.440 You might be surprised how much better everything feels.
01:01:23.720 No bed-carrying crew required.
01:01:25.180 Just you moving like you were meant to move all along.
01:01:28.040 So try Relief Factor today because getting older is inevitable.
01:01:31.320 But feeling older doesn't have to be.
01:01:33.380 Wouldn't you like to be Trump's age and moving like he moves?
01:01:37.200 You can get their three-week quick start, a try, for only $19.95.
01:01:40.480 Please visit relieffactor.com or call 800-4-RELIEF, 800-4-RELIEF.
01:01:46.580 10 seconds, station ID.
01:01:58.240 A couple of things I have to hit.
01:01:59.980 We are all sold out for our Mercury One Gala for his glory.
01:02:03.100 I mentioned it yesterday and the tickets flew.
01:02:05.800 And that is on Saturday.
01:02:07.180 However, our silent auction is up.
01:02:10.920 And if you would like to help, you can go to mercuryone.org.
01:02:14.300 Look for our silent auction.
01:02:16.280 There's lots of really cool stuff.
01:02:18.420 We'll go through it maybe sometime tomorrow.
01:02:20.460 But it all goes to our Maximum Impact Fund, which does two things.
01:02:24.400 Pays everybody's salary, et cetera, et cetera.
01:02:26.120 So when I go on the air and say 100% of everything raised today goes to this cause, we mean it.
01:02:31.600 But also the Maximum Impact Fund, if we can raise a lot more than, you know, what it takes and we keep things bare bones, we use that so we can act before I raise money on the air.
01:02:44.600 So I might need a million dollars to be able just to grab all the food and supplies and everything else and put them on a, you know, cargo plane and ship them to the disaster area.
01:02:53.580 You know, last time with all the hurricanes, we can do that with our Maximum Impact Fund.
01:02:58.660 And that's what everything raised this week goes to.
01:03:02.040 So you can go, the gala is sold out, but you can go and look for our silent auction.
01:03:09.060 And I think you can raffle, they're raffling off a truck, et cetera, et cetera.
01:03:11.880 It's a really nice one.
01:03:12.900 Just go to mercuryone.com, mercuryone.com.
01:03:16.620 I am in the Rush Limbaugh studios at the Heritage Foundation here in Washington, D.C.
01:03:20.700 I'll be back tomorrow.
01:03:21.700 I flew in late last night to be part of the National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk.
01:03:26.460 I'll be with the president today in the White House at 4 o'clock.
01:03:29.360 They're doing a ceremony.
01:03:31.140 So he will receive, or his wife will receive, the award of the Medal of Freedom.
01:03:38.740 This is the highest civilian honor, Presidential Medal of Freedom.
01:03:42.460 That's happening at 4 o'clock today.
01:03:43.820 You can watch that on TPUSA, on their YouTube channel, or Rumble.
01:03:48.920 Okay.
01:03:49.400 Can you go over some of the polls here, Stu?
01:03:52.020 Yeah, sure.
01:03:52.760 So the race has been interesting in that it had, you know, people will call Virginia a purple state.
01:03:59.840 I tend to call it a light blue state.
01:04:02.540 It is not, you know, Republicans can win there in good times.
01:04:06.300 But I think it's difficult in normal times for Republicans to win in Virginia.
01:04:11.060 And so this race had kind of played out that way in that, you know, you have a president that's not particularly popular in Virginia right now.
01:04:20.960 And so the race, despite the fact that, as you point out, the Youngkin administration with Sears as part of it has really been incredibly successful for Virginia.
01:04:30.160 The race has been in that sort of high single digits range, mid to high single digits range this entire time.
01:04:38.940 What's changed, of course, over the past couple of weeks is the Jay Jones situation, which does seem to have at least made some dent in that lead.
01:04:47.140 If you look at the most recent polls, Trafalgar has polling that is interesting on this point in that Trafalgar had Mairis down by 3.8 points against Jay Jones as of a week or two ago.
01:05:03.040 Now he is, Mairis is up by 5.8.
01:05:06.320 So a massive switch since the scandal started with him.
01:05:09.720 Seems to have moved the polls a little bit in Winsome Earl Sears' favor as well.
01:05:14.560 She was trailing, according to Trafalgar, by 5.2 points a couple of weeks ago and is now 2.6 is the margin.
01:05:23.540 So it is a close race, though you'd still probably would say she's the underdog and needs all the help she can get.
01:05:29.080 Early voting, early voting, early voting.
01:05:30.980 Republicans, churches, get out and vote.
01:05:32.980 This is Glenn Beck.

01:06:58.960 There is a phrase that is carved into the marble at the Supreme Court.
01:07:21.440 And it says, equal justice under the law.
01:07:24.980 Equal justice under the law.
01:07:26.700 That is the one thing that we have really forgotten about here in America, it seems.
01:07:30.780 You want special justice.
01:07:32.020 You want justice for this group or that group.
01:07:34.480 But no, no, I want equal justice.
01:07:36.960 It's why justice is blindfolded.
01:07:39.880 Justice should never see who's at the bench.
01:07:42.680 They should see what are the facts of the case.
01:07:46.380 And who's at the bench should not make a difference.
01:07:49.680 I don't care if you're rich or you're poor, you're homeless or you're Bill Gates.
01:07:53.680 I don't really care.
01:07:55.360 I want to know the facts.
01:07:57.020 And then we judge that not looking at the person.
01:08:01.340 That's the closest we can come to perfect justice.
01:08:05.960 And the farther we, the more we take that blindfold off of justice, the more corrupt justice becomes.
01:08:13.320 And we know this because that's why if you were black back in the day, you couldn't get a fair hearing.
01:08:19.160 You couldn't get a fair trial because justice wasn't blindfolded.
01:08:22.560 Okay.
01:08:23.440 That's why it's up on the Supreme Court.
01:08:25.080 Equal justice under the law.
01:08:27.000 And it's not a suggestion.
01:08:28.520 It's not a slogan.
01:08:29.440 It is the beating heart of the American experiment.
01:08:33.800 You know, no man, no movement, no institution, no creed stands above the law.
01:08:41.100 Now, the reason why I bring this up is because last week I was at a Turning Point event in North Dakota.
01:08:47.300 And I said all the way through, I hate these questions and answers things because I don't believe I hate conflict.
01:08:53.260 And I also don't believe anybody is doing anything other than trying to win.
01:08:58.560 When you're in a crowd, somebody is trying to win.
01:09:01.680 I don't play that game.
01:09:02.740 I don't like that game.
01:09:03.780 I like honest questioning.
01:09:05.380 And you also have to have a debate where you can talk about subtle things.
01:09:15.140 You know, you have to be able to look at things.
01:09:17.980 Not everything is black and white.
01:09:20.560 There is right and wrong.
01:09:21.940 Yes.
01:09:22.260 But now, how do we get there?
01:09:24.420 For instance, last week I talked to you, or yesterday I talked to you about AI.
01:09:27.780 Earlier, it seems like last week already.
01:09:30.220 Earlier in hour number one in the podcast, I was talking to you about AI.
01:09:33.800 And I don't know the right answer on that yet.
01:09:36.940 We have to have that debate.
01:09:39.620 But an honest debate on things.
01:09:42.120 So last week I started taking questions.
01:09:44.480 And boy, did they take these and selectively edit.
01:09:48.260 Interesting.
01:09:48.740 But I was asked, you know, Glenn, how come AIPAC, that's the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee, how come they don't register as a foreign agent under Farrah?
01:09:59.880 The Foreign Agents Registration Act.
01:10:02.460 Well, I know that Hunter Biden was supposed to, you know, register under that.
01:10:07.340 Or was he?
01:10:08.060 Now, I said at the time, I don't know anything about it.
01:10:12.120 I haven't looked into that.
01:10:13.280 But I will do my homework on it, because I want to know.
01:10:15.900 And my guess is, if they don't, then there's something wrong with our law, okay?
01:10:23.080 Either they're getting special favors that they shouldn't, or many people are getting special favors and they shouldn't.
01:10:29.720 Everyone should have to obey the law and equal treatment.
01:10:33.900 Justice is blind.
01:10:35.980 Okay, so let me tell you now.
01:10:37.860 I went home.
01:10:38.920 I did my homework.
01:10:40.180 Let me tell you what I found on AIPAC.
01:10:42.020 First of all, it is bigger than AIPAC, much bigger.
01:10:46.000 It is a mirror held up to an uneven application of American law.
01:10:50.200 Let me tell you what Farrah is supposed to do.
01:10:52.280 It was passed in 1938 to stop the Nazi propaganda.
01:10:56.300 People were, there were lots of Nazis here in America.
01:10:59.620 And it requires anyone that is working on behalf of a foreign government to register as a foreign agent.
01:11:06.420 Seems simple, but is it?
01:11:09.440 It requires transparency and accountability.
01:11:13.060 But here's where it gets murky in the law.
01:11:16.560 AIPAC is an American lobbying organization registered under the Lobbying Disclosure Act, not Farrah,
01:11:25.420 because it's funded and run by American citizens, not a foreign government.
01:11:31.540 Now, that's the legal line.
01:11:32.980 Now, I don't agree with this, but that's the legal line.
01:11:36.020 But AIPAC is not the only one running this.
01:11:39.700 So why are we only hearing about the Jews controlling the government and AIPAC doing it when they're not the only one?
01:11:46.540 Did you know the National Iranian American Council, the Armenian Assembly of America, the Turkish Heritage Organization,
01:11:54.000 even Saudi Arabia's Aramco, their subsidiary, Motiva, operate under exactly this?
01:12:01.400 You want Saudi Arabia and Aramco?
01:12:04.360 Why are they not paying it?
01:12:05.780 Why are they not registered under Farrah?
01:12:08.320 Now, some people will defend this because they say these are groups of diaspora.
01:12:13.700 They are U.S.-based subsidiaries.
01:12:16.820 They have domestic roots, etc.
01:12:18.380 I don't buy any of that bullcrap.
01:12:20.080 I mean, that's me.
01:12:21.480 I mean, we can argue it, but I don't agree with it.
01:12:23.620 Because I think it is a really dangerous loophole that allows quiet foreign money to come in and influence and hide behind a U.S. address.
01:12:32.160 But here's where it gets serious.
01:12:35.920 This is not just a legal issue.
01:12:38.080 This is about truth.
01:12:40.240 When you and I, or anyone else, begin selecting only the facts that make our point while ignoring those that don't,
01:12:49.140 we stop doing research and we start doing propaganda.
01:12:54.040 If you've listened to voices that pick and choose data to inflame your anger,
01:12:58.900 you have to start asking yourself this question.
01:13:01.700 Is my source being honest?
01:13:04.200 I ask you all the time, do your own homework.
01:13:07.660 I'm the guy, I think, who popularized that with the youth now.
01:13:11.200 Do your own homework.
01:13:12.100 Don't take my word for it.
01:13:13.060 Do your own homework.
01:13:14.600 But that requires that you do homework on all fronts.
01:13:19.140 You ask honest questions.
01:13:20.920 Am I wrong?
01:13:22.280 Is this wrong?
01:13:23.280 I want to read the opposite side, and I want to see what's credible on both sides and bring it together.
01:13:29.680 For example, once you learn that the Iranians, Cubans, Saudis, Armenians, and Turks all have the same objection,
01:13:37.600 yet it's only the Jewish organization that is accused of secretly controlling Washington,
01:13:44.180 do you see a disturbing pattern here?
01:13:46.520 Because the argument starts to sound less like a legal concern and more like something far older and darker.
01:13:53.940 And that was my point.
01:13:54.980 I said, look, you don't have to agree with Israel.
01:13:57.520 I don't want to fight their wars.
01:13:59.100 I don't want to do anything.
01:14:00.100 I support them in their right to defend themselves as they see fit, okay?
01:14:06.440 I don't support anything like genocide.
01:14:09.560 I don't believe they're doing genocide.
01:14:11.340 I do believe Hamas is.
01:14:13.000 And I do believe you can make a very, very clear case that Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran are evil.
01:14:18.220 And I said, look, you don't have to accept Israel, and you don't have to accept Hamas.
01:14:28.500 You can say nobody's a good guy in this.
01:14:31.040 But when you look at things like AIPAC, if there's more, and this is what I said,
01:14:36.900 if it's about something legal, then we have to correct that.
01:14:39.980 And the argument would be over.
01:14:41.280 However, I could say what I'm saying today and say, look, we should have listened to Tom Cotton.
01:14:46.060 He introduced legislation on this.
01:14:48.000 All of this has to stop.
01:14:49.660 So let's do that.
01:14:51.240 Why are we dividing ourselves on an ancient, you know, Jews control the world thing when that's not even true about AIPAC, okay?
01:14:59.840 Because everybody else is doing it too.
01:15:03.660 The problem isn't Judaism.
01:15:05.660 It's not Islam.
01:15:07.220 It's not any one nation.
01:15:08.660 Quite honestly, if you want to be honest, the problem is our laws and our politicians.
01:15:16.860 Equal justice under the law.
01:15:19.720 It must be our demand every day.
01:15:23.000 Jew, Muslim, Gentile, Hunter Biden.
01:15:27.400 Everyone.
01:15:28.440 Everyone should be the same under the law.
01:15:31.080 What's happened instead is that this loophole has become a weapon.
01:15:34.740 And people twist it to their own, you know, their own delight to suggest that AIPAC, you know, runs the U.S. government and the Pentagon and the president, which is laughable, especially this week.
01:15:46.800 That is laughable.
01:15:47.680 Just look at the events of the last few days.
01:15:51.360 Do you really think that Donald Trump is being controlled by Israel?
01:15:55.600 Have you heard what he has said to Benjamin Netanyahu?
01:15:58.980 Have you seen all of the Egyptians and the Saudis and everybody else in the Arab world all now lining up for this peace?
01:16:08.740 When he bombed, when he bombed Iran, he's not fighting Israel's war.
01:16:14.580 When he bombed Iran, he wasn't on Israel.
01:16:16.760 It wasn't for Israel any more than it was for Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
01:16:20.900 You found out yesterday that the one thing they all unite on is that Iran is the real problem there.
01:16:30.020 And what he did was a show of peace through strength, the same principle that ended the decades of stalemate between Arab nations and Israel.
01:16:40.180 And here's another thing.
01:16:41.040 When you stop sending pallets of cash to your enemies and you start saying, don't do that anymore, and I'm serious, they tend to listen.
01:16:51.080 And what was the result?
01:16:53.800 You could speculate, and I worried at the time.
01:16:56.960 I said it on the air.
01:16:58.000 I'm worried that this could escalate things.
01:17:00.940 But it didn't.
01:17:02.640 So what is the result?
01:17:04.060 The result was not an endless war where we're over fighting, you know, in the Middle East.
01:17:09.860 I don't want that, neither do you.
01:17:12.580 The result was true Arab-Israeli peace.
01:17:16.440 The first chance of true peace in a millennia.
01:17:22.560 And now he's taken that credibility of saying, look, I'll be tough on the Arabs.
01:17:27.820 I'll be tough on the Iranians.
01:17:30.460 I'll be tough on the Jews.
01:17:31.860 I'll be tough on Hamas.
01:17:33.480 However, I will say, Hamas, you do these things, and I'm with you.
01:17:36.800 He yesterday invited Iran into the League of Nations.
01:17:41.760 Look, just because we bombed you, it doesn't mean we hate you.
01:17:45.060 We want you to have peace.
01:17:47.180 So come on in.
01:17:49.640 Now he's taken that same credibility, and now he's turning it towards Russia and Ukraine, and he's doing that.
01:17:55.800 He's meeting with the leadership of Ukraine on Friday.
01:17:59.000 And he's going to apply the same exact principle.
01:18:03.220 And here's what's going to happen.
01:18:05.560 The same people who said he was once a Russian puppet will now accuse him of getting us into a war with Russia and do Ukraine's bidding.
01:18:15.840 Which one is it?
01:18:18.300 Which one is it?
01:18:19.580 May I suggest a third reason?
01:18:24.260 Maybe, just maybe, for the first time I believe in my lifetime, we are seeing an American president doing America's bidding.
01:18:38.080 Trying to broker peace.
01:18:39.620 Trying to keep us out of these endless wars.
01:18:43.060 Because honestly, isn't that what all of us want?
01:18:45.240 I don't care who you voted for.
01:18:46.700 Do you want more foreign wars?
01:18:48.800 Because I don't.
01:18:49.640 I'm tired of it.
01:18:51.020 Do you want to see more blood and treasure spilled in some unknown country?
01:18:55.040 Isn't that what we all want is an end of these wars?
01:18:58.620 No more young Americans spilling their blood in distant deserts or frozen tundras for somebody else's freedom who I don't even know if they really want freedom?
01:19:09.020 I want freedom here.
01:19:11.060 I want to be able to show the world what people who actually understand what freedom is know what the high price is that we have to pay for our own freedom.
01:19:23.020 Not your freedom.
01:19:23.960 Our freedom.
01:19:25.340 What we can do with that freedom.
01:19:28.080 We want to be a shining city on the hill that everybody can look at and go, look at those guys.
01:19:32.220 I want to be more like them.
01:19:33.600 Not going over to other countries and jamming it down their throat.
01:19:36.540 I want peace, but peace grounded in strength and honesty and the unbreakable carved in stone promise of equal justice under the law.
01:19:48.800 That's what we have to do to restore faith in the republic.
01:19:52.720 We have to stop taking little bits and pieces.
01:19:56.500 Look at the whole thing and say, what's corrupt?
01:19:58.560 Well, what's corrupt here might have started as a good thing, but it's no longer a good thing.
01:20:04.940 We have to change the law.
01:20:06.700 Equal justice under the law.
01:20:08.840 I'm sorry.
01:20:10.820 If you are doing the bidding, Hunter Biden or AIPAC or the Iranian council or Armenian council or whatever, I'm sorry.
01:20:19.960 We have to tighten this down because money has changed.
01:20:23.520 It's changed.
01:20:24.480 Things that were happening in 1945, 1955, 65, 85, 95, 2005, it's changed.
01:20:33.760 And I don't want any foreign influence coming into this country unless we know exactly you're influencing for a foreign country.
01:20:43.100 Because this is what makes us different than every other country that's come before.
01:20:47.400 And that's not ideology.
01:20:49.300 That's not party.
01:20:50.240 That's not tribe.
01:20:51.200 That's how we have to define America again if we're going to survive.
01:20:58.520 So you may not like it.
01:21:00.200 Sorry.
01:21:00.940 But you asked me to do my own homework on AIPAC.
01:21:03.900 There it is.
01:21:05.380 Back in a minute.
01:21:08.720 Okay.
01:21:09.220 Let me tell you about good ranchers.
01:21:10.420 You know, there was a time where family names were branded in the size of cattle.
01:21:14.160 You know, and the land, the cattle of the land fed this country.
01:21:19.600 Back then, the American ranchers were the backbone of this nation.
01:21:22.060 They still are.
01:21:23.160 But everybody says that time is fading, disappearing thanks to giant corporations.
01:21:27.440 Hey, we can get our meat from Bill Gates.
01:21:31.140 Good heavens, man, what's wrong with you?
01:21:33.780 The label, when you go to the store and you buy meat, it says product of the USA and has
01:21:38.720 a little flag on it because I feel so patriotic when it says that.
01:21:41.660 The meat may not have ever done anything on American soil except been wrapped in styrofoam
01:21:48.100 and plastic and had that little label.
01:21:50.040 It probably shipped from miles and miles, tens of thousands of miles away.
01:21:55.580 Good Ranchers is trying to change all that.
01:21:57.200 They partner directly with American farmers and ranchers.
01:21:59.500 They deliver 100% American beef, chicken, and seafood straight to your door.
01:22:04.040 Every box helps keep American ranchers in business and preserves a way of life that
01:22:09.120 built this country.
01:22:10.780 From now through Thanksgiving, Good Ranchers is asking families to share a meal together
01:22:14.840 every Thursday.
01:22:15.700 Every week, one lucky family is going to win a Thanksgiving ham.

01:22:44.760 You never know where that thing's been.
01:22:47.360 More Glenn Beck in a GIF.
01:22:56.480 So there is this town in West Texas that is apparently being taken over by somebody who
01:23:17.580 is trying to move a group of city slickers into West Texas.
01:23:23.360 Because there is nothing going on in this West Texas.
01:23:26.440 I mean, if you're not in oil, there's nothing going on.
01:23:28.340 It's a very small town.
01:23:30.220 And the Fat Boys Cafe, the owner of that is Miss Kay.
01:23:34.480 And she said one of these new residents came into her restaurant.
01:23:38.220 Two men and a girl entered the restaurant.
01:23:39.820 She likes to talk to customers.
01:23:41.400 And she said, you know, what are you guys doing here?
01:23:44.280 What'd you move for?
01:23:44.840 Because there's not a lot of jobs there.
01:23:45.980 She was told, quote, we're here to take over your county.
01:23:50.140 I'm going to be one of your commissioners.
01:23:52.820 And Miss Kay said she was very serious.
01:23:55.860 She wasn't playing around.
01:23:57.440 And it seems like far-fetched strategy.
01:24:01.800 But it's actually happening.
01:24:03.980 And we have the Houston Chronicle investigative reporter.
01:24:08.720 Houston Chronicle is not some right-wing rag, if you want.
01:24:12.180 This, you know, somebody usually goes the other way.
01:24:14.940 But this is a very fair reporter who went out and tried to find out what's really going on.
01:24:20.340 He's joining us next.
01:24:21.700 It's amazing.
01:24:22.640 Glenn Beck.
01:24:23.660 So, you know how, you know, you have a house and it has locks on every door and every window.
01:24:28.440 Maybe you get cameras now watching everything that goes on on the porch.
01:24:32.320 Maybe in your backyard.
01:24:34.320 Well, there's one thing you probably forgot to protect.
01:24:36.080 Because while you're worried about porch pirates stealing your packages, which is a legitimate worry these days,
01:24:41.040 there are cyber thieves also trying to steal the deed to your entire home.
01:24:44.940 It's called home title fraud.
01:24:46.280 And it happens when someone forges your name onto your title, takes out loans against your property, and vanishes, leaving you with the mess.
01:24:53.900 You won't see them breaking a window.
01:24:55.420 You won't see them, you know, jumping into your house.
01:24:58.220 But you will see the foreclosure notice.
01:25:00.640 And home title lock is, you know, kind of like a security system against this thing, right?
01:25:03.960 The one thing your alarm can't protect.
01:25:05.540 They monitor your title 24-7.
01:25:08.540 They alert you the second anyone tampers with it.
01:25:11.360 You can lock up your biggest investment before somebody else does.
01:25:14.360 And that's, you know, this is bigger than a couple packages disappearing.
01:25:18.360 Home title lock.

01:26:25.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program
01:26:29.720 Well, hello America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We're glad you're here.
01:26:38.280 There is a story that is happening that is really unbelievable.
01:26:41.460 I mean, it's really hard to believe.
01:26:44.120 And we have the Houston Chronicle investigative reporter
01:26:47.680 that will tell us the story, his investigation on something that started popping up over the summer.
01:26:54.440 There is a takeover, seemingly, seemingly a takeover of this Texas town.
01:27:04.020 It's a small town in West Texas, very small population.
01:27:07.740 It's harsh, harsh living.
01:27:09.960 And these people from the city are moving in.
01:27:12.720 They're no, I mean, what are you doing?
01:27:14.940 Working in the city, you're coming to West Texas.
01:27:17.280 Most of them didn't have any idea how harsh it was to live in West Texas.
01:27:21.240 But it appears as though they are trying to flip the control of the state
01:27:27.180 or the control of that area
01:27:28.760 and become commissioners and mayors and everything else.
01:27:32.380 It's a weird story.
01:27:33.580 We're going to try to make sense of it with him in just a second.
01:27:36.400 First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
01:27:38.380 There is a place we need to get back to in this country
01:27:40.440 if we're ever going to survive the judgment that I think is upon us.
01:27:43.320 And it's a place where we remember that life is sacred.
01:27:46.280 Somewhere along the road, we have forgotten.
01:27:47.940 Stu, is it the day to do the organ harvesting that's happening?
01:27:53.000 It's always a good day for organ harvesting, Glenn.
01:27:56.280 Today is a good day for that?
01:27:57.560 Of course.
01:27:58.580 Yeah.
01:27:59.480 I've had this story on my desk for two weeks.
01:28:01.640 And it's absolutely incredible what is happening with the MAID program up in Canada
01:28:08.360 and the organ harvesting that is going on.
01:28:11.060 It's remarkable.
01:28:12.720 We've really got to get on the right track on this thing.
01:28:14.680 There are a lot of people who haven't forgotten what life means.
01:28:18.520 And that's what pre-born is all about.
01:28:20.700 Restoring the reverence from life one heartbeat at a time.
01:28:24.500 They provide free ultrasounds for women who've been told there's no other way.
01:28:27.940 And in that moment, when a mom sees her child and hears the heartbeat, something changes.
01:28:33.380 Abortion continues to rise.
01:28:35.060 Abortion is expanding their culling, if you will.
01:28:39.840 And pre-born is extending their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of our nation
01:28:43.880 to help more hurting women.
01:28:46.200 They don't want to lecture.
01:28:47.760 They don't want to be...
01:28:48.960 All they want is just, can you help me through this?
01:28:54.060 I'm alone in the world.
01:28:56.020 If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?
01:28:59.620 Your tax-deductible donation of $15,000 will place a machine in a needy women's center,
01:29:05.620 saving countless lives for years to come.
01:29:07.960 But anything, anything, $28 provides a free ultrasound.
01:29:12.620 And then also they need to raise the money for making sure that mom has diapers and everything else
01:29:17.500 for the first two years of life.
01:29:18.900 They support both the mom and the baby.

01:29:29.680 Sponsored by Preborn.
01:29:32.280 All right.
01:29:32.900 Let me bring in Dexter Hymer.
01:29:39.640 He is a Houston Chronicle investigative reporter.
01:29:43.280 And he has been reporting on this seemingly crazy story.
01:29:48.420 When you first heard about this, Eric, did you have a hard time believing it?
01:29:54.200 Because I know I did.
01:29:57.080 I did have a hard time believing it, at least the particulars of it, in terms of the general
01:30:01.800 idea that something crazy could happen out in Loving County.
01:30:04.960 That was a little more believable.
01:30:06.260 I've been covering the area for a little while.
01:30:08.420 And it's a peculiar spot out in far west Texas.
01:30:12.420 Okay.
01:30:13.040 Can we rule out one thing?
01:30:14.960 Is any of this, because it seems to be, when I first heard it, they're saying a lot of
01:30:19.600 black people are moving in.
01:30:20.840 And I'm like, okay, well, maybe that's okay.
01:30:23.380 Maybe that's okay, white people.
01:30:25.640 Is this in any way influenced by race, do you think?
01:30:32.100 You know, at first blush, it might seem that way, but my reporting didn't really show that.
01:30:37.740 It is true that the group of people moving in is called the Melanated People of Power.
01:30:43.280 It refers to their skin color.
01:30:45.240 Most, if not all of them, appear to be black.
01:30:47.700 But I also interviewed people in Loving County, including some black folks who live there.
01:30:53.400 And, you know, they said that there wasn't anything really racial about what was happening
01:30:58.940 out there.
01:30:59.800 Okay.
01:31:00.320 So who are these people that are moving in?
01:31:02.440 How is this happening?
01:31:04.000 And what are they after?
01:31:05.380 So they are followers of a guy named Dr. Malcolm Tanner, who's an Indiana resident.
01:31:12.960 And over the summer, he started promoting on his social media platforms, this program
01:31:19.080 where that if you moved out to Loving County, Texas, you would get a free home and $5,000
01:31:24.460 a month in free income.
01:31:27.220 And so far, about three dozen people have moved out there.
01:31:32.800 And is that a lot for this town?
01:31:35.960 What is the population of this county?
01:31:38.300 So Loving County has about 70 people in all.
01:31:41.040 It has one city called Mentone.
01:31:43.440 So for commissioner seats, those seats that have precincts, you can win with about a dozen
01:31:49.820 votes.
01:31:50.140 If you want to run for and win as a sheriff or as a county judge, which in Texas is the
01:31:55.600 highest administrative office in a county, you can have that office for, you know, maybe
01:32:01.420 four or five dozen votes.
01:32:02.780 So, yeah, 30 people is starting to build a substantial voting block out there.
01:32:07.560 And what is this?
01:32:10.200 Who is this guy in Indiana that's doing this?
01:32:13.520 So he's kind of mysterious.
01:32:15.520 He's a charismatic guy.
01:32:16.960 He has claimed that he started this melanated people of power to, you know, enfranchise folks
01:32:25.320 who typically don't have political or economic power of their own.
01:32:30.140 He claims he's an entrepreneur.
01:32:31.800 He claims that he's a philanthropist.
01:32:33.860 But really nailing down things about him is pretty difficult.
01:32:37.940 He's got a trail of lawsuits in Indiana against the city of Muncie, against Grant County, having
01:32:44.840 to do with property disputes.
01:32:47.080 He calls himself doctor, but he doesn't identify which institution conferred that degree on him.
01:32:52.560 But as I said, what he does have is a fairly sizable social media presence.
01:32:57.360 And it seems to his message seems to be speaking to a lot of people, you know, all over the
01:33:03.020 country.
01:33:03.360 The folks who have moved to Levin County have come from Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina,
01:33:08.660 some within Texas, but really from all over.
01:33:12.260 So you don't improve somebody's station in life by giving them free housing and $5,000 a
01:33:17.520 month.
01:33:17.880 You create jobs.
01:33:20.000 You help them create their own life and their own path.
01:33:25.120 What is his plan other than just continuing to pay for these, you know, these trailers?
01:33:31.300 Because they're mobile homes, right?
01:33:33.220 So paying for the mobile homes and then the $5,000 a month, that's not a plan.
01:33:41.160 Yeah, I don't know if he has a grand economic plan.
01:33:44.280 You know, what I can tell you is that based on the people who have moved out there and kind
01:33:47.600 of reading it on social media, it's, you know, the idea of a free home for someone who can't
01:33:53.080 otherwise afford one or, you know, for whom that seems out of reach is a pretty powerful
01:33:58.160 lure, right?
01:33:59.960 And he has said that, you know, if we get enough people out here, we'll kind of, you
01:34:05.020 know, goose industry and bring in businesses.
01:34:08.000 I mean, the truth is that Levin County is doing very well for itself.
01:34:11.800 Right now it's in the middle of the Permian Basin, which is the big oil and gas producing
01:34:15.980 region of Texas.
01:34:17.600 And they have about, you know, say 70 permanent residents and their budget this year is going
01:34:23.920 to be about $60 million for a little, so a little less than a million dollars per person.
01:34:30.020 You know, overwhelmingly that money comes from oil and gas taxes that they collect.
01:34:34.560 So there's already a lot of money out there.
01:34:37.340 There's, you know, besides oil and gas, there's a couple of support service businesses, you know,
01:34:42.080 some gas stations, one or two restaurants, but not a ton else.
01:34:47.700 Okay.
01:34:48.280 So what is the city doing to investigate, to stop this, or can they do anything?
01:34:56.240 Well, one of the really interesting things to me about Levin County is that it does have
01:35:00.540 this very long history of kind of dicey voter registration and voting out there.
01:35:07.200 That there are a couple of powerful families out there.
01:35:10.460 They've been feuding in recent years.
01:35:12.920 And in order to kind of keep and maintain power, they've been pretty loose with voter
01:35:20.280 rules.
01:35:20.880 So people who may have moved away from there, you know, years and years ago are still registered
01:35:25.960 to vote there.
01:35:26.520 So the result of that is that there are many more people registered to vote in Levin County
01:35:30.360 than who actually live there.
01:35:33.160 That's a long way of saying that to a lot of people, of saying that a lot of people who
01:35:36.900 live out there, this is kind of the, you know, the chickens coming home to roost, that they've
01:35:41.000 promoted and lived with this system for quite a while.
01:35:43.600 And here's someone who's come in, you know, looking to take advantage of it.
01:35:47.860 So the only thing they can really do is, you know, make sure that all the boxes are checked
01:35:52.360 on the voter registration forms.
01:35:55.020 Outside of the county, however, there have been some investigations mounted.
01:35:59.960 A couple of state representatives have asked for investigations by the Texas Secretary of
01:36:05.520 State, which is the office that oversees elections here in Texas.
01:36:11.280 There's a U.S. representative, Chip Roy, who was asked for an investigation.
01:36:16.320 And then yesterday, our Attorney General, Ken Paxton, filed a lawsuit asking for a
01:36:22.120 restraining order and also accusing the group of violating a handful of local laws.
01:36:27.540 His purpose seems to be trying to shut it down.
01:36:31.800 What do you, where does this end up?
01:36:34.780 I mean, as a reporter, I know you don't report on future news, but where does this lead?
01:36:41.940 Well, I mean, the most obvious point is that living in Levin County, particularly in the
01:36:46.440 conditions that these folks are living, is pretty difficult, right?
01:36:49.940 I mean, it's an arid, isolated place.
01:36:53.440 It's very hot out there.
01:36:54.640 There's no trees.
01:36:55.360 It's just a bunch of, you know, creosote and caliche and scrub land.
01:36:59.780 It's tough.
01:37:01.600 Yeah, it's hard.
01:37:03.380 And there's no services out on this piece of property that Malcolm Tanner has purchased.
01:37:07.960 He purchased two five-acre plots out there in January, and they're about a 30-minute drive
01:37:14.220 out, you know, kind of rough oil company roads outside of the only town.
01:37:18.340 It's about an hour away from the nearest grocery store.
01:37:21.960 So if your plan is to live out there in these conditions without water, without sewage, without
01:37:29.220 electricity, and you want to run for office.
01:37:31.900 How are they doing that?
01:37:33.000 Well, they, you know, they haul in water.
01:37:36.680 I think they have some generators out there.
01:37:39.720 They have some RVs that may have their own kind of, you know, temporary power systems.
01:37:44.920 But if your plan is to run for office and the primaries are not until March of next year,
01:37:52.360 that's quite a while to basically camp, you know, in some pretty harsh conditions.
01:37:57.320 So it may resolve itself, and people may, you know, people, as you pointed out, are coming
01:38:01.700 from cities and urban areas, and they may not be accustomed to the harsh conditions.
01:38:06.320 So it may resolve on its own.
01:38:08.600 There may be the authority of the government, you know, kind of pushing them out through
01:38:14.720 a variety of alleged broken laws.
01:38:18.700 And if that doesn't happen, then it'll be fascinating to see if they actually can win
01:38:24.080 office out there.
01:38:25.640 What are you working on next for this story?
01:38:28.320 Um, I've been following up on the investigations that have been done by the, um, you know, as
01:38:33.460 I said, the attorney general, I'll be following up the, the district attorney out there is
01:38:38.160 also mounting an investigation.
01:38:39.820 I'm trying to learn some more about, uh, Malcolm Tanner.
01:38:42.980 I'm trying to learn some more about the people who have moved out there and what their backgrounds
01:38:48.060 are.
01:38:48.740 Um, and of course, we'll be following the elections, which, as I said, are always fascinating in
01:38:53.360 Levin County.
01:38:53.920 Almost every election there is challenged based on a residency.
01:38:58.000 So it's, um, a never ending source of news despite the small population.
01:39:03.220 You know what it, uh, it reminds me of is the old west.
01:39:06.760 I mean, this kind of stuff happened in the old west where the big, you know, the big
01:39:11.520 money would want to change a town and they would bring people in and, and, and they would
01:39:16.300 change it and control it.
01:39:17.420 I mean, it really harkens back to the 1800s in some ways, doesn't it?
01:39:21.320 Um, yeah, I mean, there is an element of, you know, kind of being isolated way out there
01:39:26.240 in the middle of nowhere in West Texas.
01:39:28.620 I mean, even the names of the people, um, you know, the old time sheriff, who's the,
01:39:32.660 uh, patriarch of the kind of powerful family there, his name was, uh, punk and the current
01:39:37.940 County Jones or the current, uh, County judge's names is skeet.
01:39:41.880 And, uh, yeah, it's, it's a very kind of, uh, it's a place of rugged individuals and,
01:39:48.320 um, I won't say lawlessness, but definitely, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's out there.
01:39:52.920 Yeah, it's out there.
01:39:54.200 Uh, Eric, thank you so much.
01:39:55.580 Uh, appreciate it.
01:39:56.460 And keep us up to speed on this.
01:39:57.880 We'll be following your stories.
01:39:59.020 Houston Chronicle investigative reporter, uh, Eric, uh, Dexheimer, um, following what's
01:40:04.920 happening in Loving County, Texas.
01:40:06.860 It is so weird, Stu, isn't it?
01:40:08.920 The, all the things that are happening in Texas, where they are doing everything they
01:40:13.340 can to take Texas and flip it blue.
01:40:16.160 And I'm not convinced that that's what this is.
01:40:18.700 No.
01:40:18.940 Um, you know, I don't know what this is, uh, but it is, it's weird.
01:40:24.260 It's really, really weird.
01:40:26.020 Yeah.
01:40:26.100 It reminds me of, of wild, wild country.
01:40:28.480 The, the, um, documentary on Netflix, it was a series that came out a few years ago where
01:40:32.740 it was a story of what, I can't remember the name of the group off the top of my head,
01:40:35.800 but they went into Washington or Oregon and, and tried to take over a town like the 70s
01:40:41.460 or 80s maybe.
01:40:43.220 Uh, it's by the way, an incredible documentary.
01:40:46.140 If you've never seen it.
01:40:47.180 Incredible documentary.
01:40:48.320 It's just an insane story.
01:40:49.100 It seems like groups do this every once in a while.
01:40:51.380 Someone, you know, with a big, uh, ego or, you know, someone accused some of these groups
01:40:56.220 is a cultish type behavior, like just move into areas and just take them over and try
01:41:01.380 to take over the town council and everything else so they can, you know, run their little
01:41:06.560 thing the way they want to run it.
01:41:08.760 Uh, it's, I'm always fascinated by those stories.
01:41:11.000 Yeah.
01:41:11.400 I'm not sure what this one is, but people are comparing this with Elon Musk.
01:41:14.780 What's the problem?
01:41:15.320 Elon Musk did this.
01:41:16.240 No, Elon Musk was creating thousands of jobs.
01:41:19.860 Elon Musk was like, I'm going to build you a house and send you $5,000 and you don't do
01:41:23.760 anything for it.
01:41:25.180 That that's not what Elon Musk and sending you into a trailer with no services whatsoever.
01:41:30.560 I mean, his town is going to be a model town already is a model town, uh, in, uh, Texas.
01:41:37.360 He's creating something and creating jobs.
01:41:40.100 There's a purpose for people to move there.
01:41:42.460 Um, here, there is no seeming purpose.
01:41:44.600 If you've never been to West Texas, imagine the moon.
01:41:48.960 If it was a lot closer to the sun, I mean, a lot closer to the sun that is West Texas
01:41:59.260 there, you know, you're in for quite a surprise.
01:42:02.200 If you've never been to West Texas and you're like, I'm moving to West Texas.
01:42:06.240 Oh, good luck with that.
01:42:08.080 Good luck with that.
01:42:09.800 It takes, um, it takes real pioneers to do that.
01:42:14.000 Okay.
01:42:14.460 Let me tell you about the Bernalotcher.
01:42:15.700 There was a time when the only way to level a playing field was a day in a dangerous situation
01:42:19.400 was having a gun, something that challenges the lives in an instant brings results that
01:42:23.300 you can't take back.
01:42:24.260 Today, there is a different option for people who want to protect themselves without resorting
01:42:28.260 to lethal force.
01:42:29.680 You know, I don't want my kids carrying a gun until they feel they're really, really
01:42:32.880 responsible with it.
01:42:34.580 Um, and, uh, you know, but I also don't want them going onto campuses and everything else
01:42:40.340 without some sort of protection.
01:42:42.760 And I have to tell you, if you're over 18, 100% legal in all 50 States, you don't need a
01:42:47.820 permit, no background check, nothing.
01:42:49.740 It's Berna, the Berna compact launcher.
01:42:52.620 It's a handheld CO2 powered equalizer, small enough to carry, but strong enough to stop
01:42:57.800 a threat and designed to do the job without the life altering consequences of a firearm.
01:43:02.360 Uh, it fires pepper and kinetic pro, uh, uh, projectiles can disable an attacker from
01:43:07.040 a safe, safe distance.
01:43:08.160 It has tear gas.
01:43:09.580 It gives you time to escape, call for help and take control of a situation before it
01:43:13.320 escalates.
01:43:13.940 And I, like I said, legal in all 50 States.
01:43:16.160 So you can keep it in your backpack, your bedside glove box, wherever go to Berna.com
01:43:22.080 slash Glenn, B Y R N a.com slash Glenn.
01:43:25.140 I'm going to their, uh, their facilities, uh, in, um, in Fort Wayne, Indiana this week.
01:43:31.760 I'm going to be up there for several reasons.
01:43:33.560 I think on Thursday, and I'm really excited to be up there.
01:43:36.440 Berna, B Y R N a.com slash Glenn.
01:43:38.880 Learn more about the Berna launcher, Berna.com slash Glenn, or you can try before you buy it
01:43:43.060 a sportsman's warehouse.
01:43:44.140 You can find the location near you at Berna.com slash Glenn.
01:43:47.820 10 seconds station.
01:43:59.180 I'm in, uh, Washington, DC today.
01:44:01.580 Um, I'm going to be at the white house with the, uh, president and, and others today.
01:44:07.360 Um, it's Charlie Kirk's 31st birthday.
01:44:11.260 Um, and, uh, you know, he was, he was cut short, um, but, uh, September 10th robbed him
01:44:19.280 of, of this birthday, but he's going to be remembered.
01:44:22.920 It's actually his 32nd birthday.
01:44:24.500 He was 31.
01:44:25.680 Um, he, um, he is going to, uh, be given the, uh, the, the biggest metal we can award anyone.
01:44:34.780 It's the presidential medal of freedom and he's going to get that at a ceremony today
01:44:38.960 and I'll be there.
01:44:39.700 You can watch it on TPUSA or, or wherever.
01:44:43.040 Um, rumble, I think is carrying the whole ceremony as well, uh, at 4 PM Eastern time.
01:44:48.580 It should be pretty special.
01:44:50.260 Should be pretty special.
01:44:52.240 Okay.
01:44:52.760 Stu.
01:44:53.200 I mean, I, I've got the, I've got the organ harvesting I could go to.
01:44:58.180 Uh, I mean, unless you've got something else you could talk about.
01:45:00.460 Do we have enough time for organ harvesting talk here, Sarah?
01:45:02.680 No, she says, no, she says, no, she's been trying to shut this down the last two weeks.
01:45:07.420 Wow.
01:45:07.940 She really has been, I think she might be, I'm just going to throw it out there.
01:45:11.760 This is not an accusation legally, but like, she might have some investments in the organ
01:45:15.780 harvesting field that she's trying to, you know, uh, I don't know, move along in the
01:45:20.780 right direction.
01:45:21.660 You know what?
01:45:22.180 You know what makes me want you to take my organs out and sell them to people is the
01:45:27.080 idea of, uh, Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau kissing on a yacht.
01:45:32.980 I don't know if you've seen that.
01:45:34.280 I did see those photos.
01:45:35.220 Yes.
01:45:35.860 Uh, was he in blackface?
01:45:37.220 Could you tell from that distance?
01:45:38.460 I couldn't.
01:45:38.680 I could not tell.
01:45:39.680 I could not tell.
01:45:41.380 Uh, but he might've been doing a little show for her.
01:45:43.700 I'm not really sure, but please take my organs, please.
01:45:47.100 Yes.
01:45:47.580 Take them now.
01:45:48.040 First of all.
01:45:48.400 Don't make me look at that any, any, any more.
01:45:50.160 I, I, we've heard your alcohol history, your health issues.
01:45:53.700 I don't think people have any interest in your organs in particular high price for my
01:45:58.400 organs.
01:45:58.860 I'm not, I'm just, it's by the pound from you, I think is the way they would.
01:46:02.600 That's, uh, but, uh, on the, uh, the, I love the, the photos they take of these situations,
01:46:09.820 Glenn, like as if they were just like some reporters out in the ocean and they just happen
01:46:14.420 to be posted.
01:46:15.120 They just, just taking pictures of boats.
01:46:17.140 You know, they, they weren't tipped off of this.
01:46:18.780 They didn't want this relationship to break, but they just said, look, just a bunch of TMZ
01:46:22.820 people out in boats somewhere, just taking pictures of people kissing on, on the deck.
01:46:27.080 And they just happened to catch, uh, Katie Perry.
01:46:29.560 I didn't realize that those TMZ people, I thought they had Kodak cameras, the little
01:46:33.240 disposable box cameras.
01:46:34.980 I know.
01:46:35.640 I mean, these were, these were photographers.
01:46:38.080 It's just stunning how this new, these news breakers are always out there.
01:46:41.540 Just anything you do on a boat could be photographed at any time, boys and girls.
01:46:45.060 Always remember that.
01:46:45.840 Um, and I could hurl at any time, uh, again, it would have been easier to talk about.
01:46:52.580 Which one are you going to harvest?
01:46:54.260 Which one has the bad situation there?
01:46:56.220 Would you say?
01:46:57.200 Oh, she does.
01:47:00.380 And that's saying.
01:47:01.220 This is Glenn Beck.
01:47:06.960 I didn't know she was a lesbian, honestly.
01:47:09.560 Um, if you, if you've ever had to buy or sell a home before, you know how tempting it is
01:47:15.900 to never, ever put yourself in a situation where you have to face any of that again, where
01:47:22.040 the paperwork is stacked.
01:47:23.400 The deadlines are tight.
01:47:24.400 Every phone call feels like a test.
01:47:25.780 It makes sense, you know, to run the other way, but a great agent takes that weight off
01:47:30.500 of your shoulders.
01:47:31.420 Real estate agents I trust is a handpicked network of professionals who understand the
01:47:36.320 human side of this work.
01:47:37.860 They negotiate with skill, communicate with you.
01:47:39.940 They see things other agents miss and they'll help you price smartly, stage with purpose and
01:47:44.920 close the deal without the drama that you've come to accept, uh, and expect.
01:47:49.960 Um, we started looking at this, my company, I started years ago looking, working with the
01:47:54.940 500 best real estate agents in the country.
01:47:57.240 And I got to know them and I asked them what makes a great real estate agent.
01:48:01.220 It's really pretty simple, uh, but it takes a lot of work on their side.
01:48:05.280 We started expanding that list, uh, and we're now about 3000 agents all throughout the country.
01:48:10.860 So I want you to do your own homework.
01:48:12.420 I just want you to meet with them.
01:48:13.780 It's a free service to you.
01:48:14.940 If you're buying or selling a home, whether it's across the street or across the country,
01:48:18.240 please go to realestateagentsitrust.com, realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:48:22.920 Head over to glenbeck.com and sign up for the free email newsletter.
01:48:27.500 It's every story we talk about every day.
01:48:29.520 There is, um, there's some disturbing things coming out of New York on Mondani.
01:48:51.600 We're going to get to that, uh, probably hopefully tomorrow, um, because it's a stuff that you
01:48:58.420 really need to hear.
01:48:59.800 Um, uh, and I, tomorrow I'm going to go more in depth on this one.
01:49:03.100 I can't make sense of this story.
01:49:05.460 Um, and I go to John Solomon because I think he is the fairest of all of the, um, journalists
01:49:15.600 out there.
01:49:16.040 I think he's really, really fair, tries to do the right thing.
01:49:18.800 And the story is about the Pentagon's pledge, uh, that Pete Hegseth is trying to get the
01:49:26.820 reporters to, uh, to sign.
01:49:29.620 And the Pentagon is saying, this is not changing.
01:49:33.840 This is just codifying things here.
01:49:36.020 I mean, the press can no longer roam free.
01:49:39.460 Well, when did they, I mean, I, I've been to the white house.
01:49:42.920 I've not been to the Pentagon, but I've been to the white house, man, you don't go anywhere
01:49:45.800 without a badge.
01:49:47.480 Um, you got that V for visitors, uh, and you, you, you don't have it.
01:49:52.920 They stop you.
01:49:54.140 So he said, the press has to have a press badge at all times.
01:49:57.720 They can no longer roam free.
01:49:59.620 Um, they have to wear a visible badge.
01:50:01.640 They also have to, uh, they also have to, when they're meeting with top officials, they
01:50:06.560 has to be another witness with them.
01:50:08.720 So it can't just meet one-on-one.
01:50:10.160 I think that's fair, um, credentialed press no longer permitted to solicit criminal acts.
01:50:17.720 I mean, I don't even understand that one, but what is, what does that mean?
01:50:22.360 I think that's what, I think what he's going for here is we all know the system is broken.
01:50:27.480 The reason why we had all of these Intel, you know, on, on why, you know, why we should
01:50:36.080 be doing different things and all of these smears against Donald Trump with the Russia
01:50:40.280 and everything else.
01:50:41.660 The press knows the, the press knows who they're talking to.
01:50:44.900 They're talking, they're getting propaganda talking points from members of either the
01:50:49.640 Pentagon or the intelligence community.
01:50:52.320 And they're trying to stop that.
01:50:54.200 They're trying to say, stop it.
01:50:56.220 You can't ask anybody to reveal things that they shouldn't reveal.
01:51:00.920 I think that's what it is, but that doesn't stop you from having somebody come to you and
01:51:07.880 revealing something.
01:51:09.340 You know, what I'd really like to see is that, uh, you know, you go back voluntarily to two
01:51:16.340 or three sources, uh, and they got to be named.
01:51:20.420 They can't all be anonymous.
01:51:21.780 Somebody's got to be named in it.
01:51:23.280 Somebody has to take responsibility for this, uh, because all you're getting, you know, on
01:51:27.500 the Hunter Biden thing, did you see the latest with John Brennan on this on the Hunter
01:51:30.540 Biden thing, Stu?
01:51:32.300 He, he actually, there there's now a memo out from him that says, look, we're trying
01:51:37.580 to put this together to be able to have Biden have some pushback at the debate on Tuesday
01:51:41.940 night.
01:51:42.960 So when he got all those people to say, you know, I've never seen anything like this.
01:51:46.860 This is Russian propaganda.
01:51:49.200 The people that signed it knew this was being used for political purposes.
01:51:54.620 And now it's out there.
01:51:56.200 And John Brennan said, I never did anything like that.
01:51:58.320 Now we have the memo from him to all the people that signed it saying that's what he
01:52:03.980 was doing.
01:52:05.040 You know, does anybody pay tape, pay attention to that?
01:52:07.420 No, but I think that's what the Pentagon is trying to do.
01:52:11.760 Uh, but everybody seems to be pushing back on that.
01:52:14.680 I shouldn't say any, everybody newsmax is pushing back the Washington times, the
01:52:19.240 Washington post, the Atlantic, the New York times, CNN, the guardian breaking defense and
01:52:23.580 other outlets said they wouldn't sign it.
01:52:25.680 So that means Fox isn't doing it.
01:52:28.800 Uh, OAN said that they would, uh, sign the pledge.
01:52:32.040 I don't know if the blaze is going to sign the pledge.
01:52:34.860 Um, but he said, you know, credentialed press no longer permitted to solicit criminal acts.
01:52:40.700 In other words, they're not permitted to publish information that hasn't been approved for
01:52:44.660 release by the department of defense.
01:52:46.560 You know, again, if you're reasonable, I, is it, I mean, does the department, I mean,
01:52:53.840 like we would not know a lot about our government if we were, gave approval to the department
01:52:58.420 of defense for every news story that came out.
01:53:01.140 I mean, I can't do that right.
01:53:02.880 As a journalist, let me look at, let me read that again, read that sentence again.
01:53:06.000 At least the way you read it, I hit me wrong.
01:53:08.740 Uh, the press is not permitted to publish information that hasn't been approved for release.
01:53:13.440 Yeah, you're right.
01:53:14.080 You're right.
01:53:14.440 No, they shouldn't have the right to do that.
01:53:16.300 You're right.
01:53:16.860 Yeah.
01:53:17.240 We have to, we have to be able to have people whistleblow.
01:53:21.320 They should all be covered in whistleblower laws, you know?
01:53:24.740 Yeah.
01:53:25.160 And I mean, it's kind of covered in the first amendment, isn't it?
01:53:27.840 I mean, that doesn't mean that the person who's releasing the information at the department
01:53:32.820 of defense is, is in the clear, is cleared.
01:53:35.940 I mean, like they shouldn't be doing that, but like the press has always had a right to be
01:53:40.660 able to go after that information.
01:53:42.240 And I think should, I was surprised by John Solomon's article because he quotes and says,
01:53:47.980 you know, this has been done for a long time under Woodrow Wilson and under FDR.
01:53:51.920 And I'm like, those aren't good examples.
01:53:54.540 Those are not good examples.
01:53:56.100 I don't want to go back under that kind of stuff.
01:53:58.940 And I understand the motivation there.
01:54:00.780 Like you want to stop obviously leaking, like that type of stuff is, is, is most of the
01:54:05.780 time the right thing to do for the government.
01:54:07.920 I would also argue, you know, there probably are a lot of good pieces of intent in here
01:54:13.620 and it's, you know, probably being reported somewhat wrong.
01:54:16.500 But what hits me is like, you point out, like, I'm not at all surprised the New York
01:54:19.480 Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal wouldn't sign something coming from
01:54:22.200 a Trump DOD.
01:54:23.820 Newsmax, I mean, Newsmax is not like, you know, they have some really good people we
01:54:28.320 really like, but they're generally speaking, pretty big fans of Donald Trump.
01:54:32.240 Like they, they, yeah, I find that interesting too.
01:54:34.940 That they would say no to this is very, yeah, that's giving me pause on it.
01:54:38.100 Cause I haven't obviously seen the document.
01:54:40.000 I've only seen reporting on, and it's hard to know what exactly is being out is what it
01:54:44.640 really means.
01:54:45.340 But I'm going to get the documents today.
01:54:47.580 I'll, I'll try to give you some information more on this, on what the truth is, because
01:54:52.780 it keeps referencing documents that I can't find.
01:54:55.820 And so we'll, we'll get those documents and we'll, we'll let you know what, you know,
01:55:00.260 at least what our stance is on this.
01:55:02.100 By the way, do you see the Philadelphia medical examiner has re-ruled this death of this woman
01:55:07.720 in 2011.
01:55:08.700 Her name was Ellen Greenberg.
01:55:10.300 Um, she, her, her death was, uh, ruled a suicide, but she died of 20 stab wounds.
01:55:21.360 Now I'm not sure.
01:55:24.760 I mean, it reminds me, I don't know if you ever saw that musical Chicago, but he ran into
01:55:29.040 my knife.
01:55:29.840 He ran into my knife 20 times, you know?
01:55:33.260 I mean, it's pretty hard to think that that is a suicide, but you know, whatever.
01:55:42.780 Uh, also, uh, the anti-ice protests in Portland.
01:55:46.760 I mean, you, we do not pay our police or our national guard enough to put up with this.
01:55:52.300 The, the, the ice, anti-ice protests in Portland.
01:55:57.680 Now they are naked cyclists that are showing up and they are blocking the driveway and throwing
01:56:06.300 themselves against, you know, we don't pay these people enough.
01:56:10.940 We just don't.
01:56:12.580 And what is the deal with the naked cyclists?
01:56:15.120 What?
01:56:15.480 I don't know.
01:56:16.260 I'll tell you what the deal is.
01:56:17.520 I'll tell you what the deal is.
01:56:18.580 We are hideous creatures.
01:56:20.080 That's the deal.
01:56:20.600 I unfortunately stumbled upon this video and I don't know.
01:56:25.080 I mean, I guess like if you really think about it other than yourself, which in both of our
01:56:30.140 cases, hideous passes by the mirror.
01:56:32.740 Other than that, like the, the people you see in either very little clothing or no clothing
01:56:39.700 are often like the most attractive members of our species.
01:56:43.260 Like the, you know, like you're in like some ad or you're in, you know, watching some movie
01:56:48.160 and like there's some scene with, and there are two people and they're very attractive
01:56:51.720 and all these other things.
01:56:53.220 And like, you don't, like, that's not what we look like.
01:56:55.800 Like we, we're disgusting.
01:56:58.260 I, I, every person going by, and by the way, the bicycle is probably the worst possible thing
01:57:02.640 you could do naked.
01:57:03.600 Oh my gosh.
01:57:04.500 I can't.
01:57:04.840 Well, I was in, I was in London two years ago and it was during, you know, pride month
01:57:09.560 and they had the naked cyclist going on.
01:57:13.060 Coincidentally, obviously.
01:57:13.280 Yeah.
01:57:14.140 What?
01:57:14.600 Nothing.
01:57:15.060 Go ahead.
01:57:16.380 They had the naked cyclist going on and I, I was in a store.
01:57:20.740 I just had to cross the street to get to my hotel.
01:57:23.300 Okay.
01:57:23.920 Just, it's right across the street.
01:57:26.000 And I'm in a store with my children and my wife.
01:57:29.880 And all of a sudden there's all these crowds and all this shouting and everything else.
01:57:34.200 And I turn around and I'm like, what's going on?
01:57:36.020 And the person inside went, oh, it's the naked cyclist.
01:57:38.860 You may not want to give out.
01:57:40.480 And I'm like, what?
01:57:41.800 I go outside.
01:57:43.260 Tanya and I both walk out, you know, and the kids are adults, you know, the kids are 18.
01:57:48.380 And I'm like, I turn around and immediately go, you guys back inside, Tanya, you inside.
01:57:53.920 No one should be able to see this.
01:57:55.760 Keep your eyes on me.
01:57:57.200 The minute I can cross, just run out and cross with me.
01:58:00.740 It was like 30 minutes of, and they're English.
01:58:04.520 Okay.
01:58:04.940 So none of them are tan.
01:58:06.480 None of them are in shape.
01:58:07.820 None of them are good looking.
01:58:09.180 They all have horrible teeth and it's, it was horrible.
01:58:14.140 I mean, it was, you know, it's not like.
01:58:17.580 The breasts, you know, get better with it.
01:58:21.240 I mean, they just, they're so long.
01:58:23.780 And on the men there, it's not so long.
01:58:25.800 You know what I mean?
01:58:26.340 It's just horrible.
01:58:27.720 It's, I do know what you mean.
01:58:29.440 It didn't, it didn't change anybody's life.
01:58:32.400 Nobody went, you know what?
01:58:33.620 I should be gay.
01:58:34.660 Yeah.
01:58:34.960 No, nobody, nobody, I don't even know what their point was for this, but nobody went,
01:58:41.720 you know, they make a good point.
01:58:43.340 You know, the Supreme Court is, is dealing with conversion therapy.
01:58:45.960 That's the way to have conversion therapy.
01:58:48.040 Have people go and look at one of those parades of naked bikers.
01:58:51.200 There's no one that's going to want to be gay.
01:58:52.640 Oh, no one.
01:58:53.860 And I don't understand.
01:58:55.100 What point are you trying to make?
01:58:58.180 What point are you trying to make?
01:59:00.480 It's just.
01:59:01.520 Look at me.
01:59:02.060 I'm hideously ugly.
01:59:03.220 Right.
01:59:03.560 It just doesn't work.
01:59:04.680 You know, again, like just think of the position you're in on a bicycle.
01:59:09.300 Like you're hunched over.
01:59:11.540 Oh, I know.
01:59:12.620 You don't have to.
01:59:13.680 You can describe it to all those who didn't have to.
01:59:14.940 Your knees are getting close to your chest on a regular basis.
01:59:18.160 Like, and I would say with some of the women in the situation banging up against things,
01:59:22.460 I will say the whole thing is not good, Glenn.
01:59:25.520 And I, we're hideous creatures and we should consider just never going outside.
01:59:29.920 We should consider just hiding from one another because it's just, it's awful.
01:59:35.680 Certainly don't take your clothes off in public.
01:59:38.320 There were people that were so large, you could not see the seat.
01:59:42.680 I.
01:59:44.740 Okay.
01:59:45.300 I don't want to.
01:59:45.760 You could not.
01:59:46.580 You saw the bar going up and no seat.
01:59:49.880 And you're like.
01:59:51.120 It's not even.
01:59:52.700 It's not sanitary.
01:59:53.540 I don't need to see this.
01:59:54.100 What do these bicycles do to you?
01:59:55.880 Oh my.
01:59:56.740 If their rentals burned them.
01:59:58.560 I hope.
02:00:02.780 I hope whoever's renting the bicycles around that time, they just close up shop inexplicably
02:00:07.340 for a weekend.
02:00:08.700 Like, no, we're not renting anything this weekend.
02:00:11.900 Oh boy.
02:00:12.520 I got to tell you, the insurance company comes in.
02:00:15.640 I could tell you they were lost in a fire, but it was the naked cyclists.
02:00:19.860 And I think the insurance company go, we'll write that.
02:00:22.040 We'll write that.
02:00:22.780 You can't use those again.
02:00:24.980 Please light them on fire.
02:00:26.180 I don't care if they weren't on fire before, but now you need to light them on fire somewhere
02:00:29.520 far away from here.
02:00:30.920 So bad.
02:00:31.560 One more thing.
02:00:32.560 You know, the Diesel Brothers, David Sparks.
02:00:36.380 David Sparks was arrested.
02:00:37.900 He was on a podcast.
02:00:38.900 I have to get this podcast clip.
02:00:40.200 Maybe we'll do it tomorrow.
02:00:41.860 I'm trying to get him on the show.
02:00:43.300 He was arrested because a judge found him in contempt for failing to pay almost a million
02:00:53.940 dollars in fines.
02:00:56.260 And this whole thing is based on them polluting the air and doing this diesel thing.
02:01:05.080 And it's a crazy story in the first place.
02:01:12.140 They arrest him and the court orders him to pay $843 in $1,000 in, you know, I think they
02:01:19.580 are environmental crimes and fines.
02:01:23.220 And they put him in solitary confinement for three days.
02:01:32.660 Now, how does this guy go into solitary confinement for three days?
02:01:39.060 How is that reasonable at all?
02:01:42.180 The story perplexes me.
02:01:45.320 And we're going to hear from him.
02:01:47.000 I want to get him on the air here because he talked to this story.
02:01:49.600 We'll play at least the clip of when I had him on last time and he talked about it and
02:01:54.100 he explained what happened and it's nuts.
02:01:56.280 It's absolutely nuts.
02:01:58.760 And it's, it is Utah losing their mind.
02:02:03.220 It is that that's what it is.
02:02:05.280 Utah has lost their mind.
02:02:10.140 So we'll get David Sparks on and we'll keep you up to speed on that story.
02:02:14.640 All right.
02:02:14.860 Let me tell you about our sponsor.
02:02:17.860 Our sponsor is American financing.

02:03:48.060 What?
02:03:48.660 Are you uncomfortable yet?
02:03:51.380 Glenn Beck is back after this.
02:03:53.520 It's a terrific day for the hostage families.
02:04:19.480 It's a terrific day for President Trump, for our national interests.
02:04:24.820 You're right.
02:04:25.540 We don't know how the story ends, but stories are made up of chapters.
