The Glenn Beck Program - The Debt Crisis Glenn Warned About Is HERE ｜ 5⧸29⧸25

00:00:00.000 This winter, take a trip to Tampa on Porter Airlines.

00:00:05.400 Enjoy the warm Tampa Bay temperatures and warm Porter hospitality on your way there.

00:00:11.360 All Porter fares include beer, wine, and snacks, and free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi on planes with no middle seats.

00:00:18.780 And your Tampa Bay vacation includes good times, relaxation, and great Gulf Coast weather.

00:00:25.160 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.

00:00:30.000 If you've ever had to untangle a mess somebody else made, not out of malice, but out of confusion,

00:00:35.260 you know that a unique combination of sadness and fury that sets in.

00:00:39.120 But it's so much worse when you know it's on purpose.

00:00:43.380 And when it was done to somebody or something you love, when it's done to create confusion and destroy things on purpose at our country,

00:00:50.180 you experience that every day.

00:00:51.960 How about if it was your parents?

00:00:53.440 If you've been there, you know, if you've seen the stack of Medicare paperwork, you're like, how does this seem like a good plan when it covers almost nothing my parents need?

00:01:07.460 Well, the founders of Chapter know that feeling because they watched their own parents get sold plans that were not right for them.

00:01:13.300 And by people who didn't even ask enough questions and didn't care to because they're getting paid to sell your parents into something.

00:01:20.320 That's why they've built Chapter to do things differently.

00:01:22.660 Their team works for you, not the insurance companies.

00:01:26.060 They search every single plan available to find what actually fits your needs and your budget.

00:01:31.560 And they do it for free.

00:01:32.800 No strings, no sales pitches.

00:01:34.420 Just help.

00:01:35.980 Just dial pound 250, say the keyword chapter.

00:01:38.360 Before you do anything with Medicare, do this.

00:01:40.680 Go to chapter, pound 250, keyword chapter, or askchapter.org slash Beck.

00:01:46.700 Hello, America.

00:01:47.960 You know we've been fighting every single day.

00:01:49.720 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.

00:01:55.740 We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.

00:02:00.940 But to keep this fight going, we need you.

00:02:03.120 Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?

00:02:07.120 Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.

00:02:15.920 This isn't a podcast.

00:02:17.280 This is a movement.

00:02:18.920 And you're part of it, a big part of it.

00:02:20.640 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.

00:02:25.860 Rate, review, share.

00:02:27.460 Together, we'll make a difference.

00:02:29.580 And thanks for standing with us.

00:02:30.840 Now let's get to work.

00:02:33.120 We'll be right back.

00:03:03.100 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:03:05.900 Yeah, oh.

00:03:07.860 Down the road where shadows hide.

00:03:10.820 Feel the dark on every side.

00:03:13.440 Stand your ground when times get dark.

00:03:16.040 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

00:03:20.460 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:03:24.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:28.160 Hello America. I have some concerning news, but I have also some very good news. I'm going to start

00:03:34.960 with the State Department, something that is happening in the State Department, but I want

00:03:38.080 you to listen to what they're now saying publicly to the rest of the world. It's very different than

00:03:43.260 it has been in the past. We begin there in 60 seconds. We're also going to talk about

00:03:47.380 the $4 trillion debt ceiling going up, the fact that now we have more judges up in New York that

00:03:56.180 are like, you know, the President, he can't do that with tariffs because we don't see

00:04:00.440 the emergency. Oh, oh, you don't see the emergency. Okay, well, thank you, but we didn't elect

00:04:06.240 you. And I'll get into that here in just a second. First, let me tell you about Patriot

00:04:10.100 Mobile. You don't know when your phone bill started doubling as a political donation to

00:04:15.820 people who think the American flag is triggering, but somewhere between the fourth streaming

00:04:20.600 service you didn't ask for and the fifth price hike you didn't even notice, that's when it

00:04:25.280 happened. The big mobile companies, they're that one relative who keeps showing up on

00:04:31.180 Thanksgiving, eats all your food, and then tells you why your house is oppressive. Hey,

00:04:34.940 thanks for the Wi-Fi. Now let me talk about how we need to cancel history because, well,

00:04:39.340 no, no, no, not with my money. I don't think with your money either. That's why you should

00:04:44.580 switch to Patriot Mobile. They use the same towers, the same coverage, except of instead of

00:04:49.600 sending a portion of your bill to leftist nonsense. They support veterans, first responders,

00:04:55.200 and pro-life causes. It's kind of like giving your phone bill a backbone. So if you want to stop

00:04:59.720 funding the cultural decline every time you text LOL, then you should check Patriot Mobile out.

00:05:07.120 Patriot Mobile. The freedom shouldn't come with a data cap. Make the switch today. Go to

00:05:11.980 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck or call 972-PATRIOT, 972-PATRIOT. Use the promo code Beck for a free

00:05:18.060 month of service. PatriotMobile.com slash Beck, 972-PATRIOT. All right, I want to remind you of

00:05:23.820 something before we get into all of this about something that we probably learned and then forgot

00:05:33.700 about in school. And I'll give that to you here in a second. But, you know, liberals are freaking out. 1.00

00:05:40.500 I mean, they freaked out over, you know, J.D. Vance when he went to Europe and he said, look,

00:05:45.340 you got to stand for freedom of speech. Wait until they read the substack now from the State

00:05:51.260 Department. This is something really, really amazing. Something remarkable is happening and

00:05:59.460 it's really happening at the last place I would expect it to happen. And that is the State Department

00:06:05.360 because that thing, oh my gosh, that has taken our country and steered it into the wrong direction

00:06:11.320 for so long. And for the very first time in a very long time, the United States Department of State

00:06:17.580 is speaking not like a globalist think tank, but actually as a sovereign nation that finally

00:06:25.480 remembers what it's all about. And it's done it in just over a hundred days. Marco Rubio is doing an

00:06:33.120 incredible job along with the president on the State Department. We are no longer bowing to

00:06:40.740 international consensus. We're not apologizing for American strength. You know, we're not managing

00:06:48.200 our own decline. Instead, we have clarity. Clarity about who we are, what we'll defend,

00:06:55.120 and what we will no longer tolerate. Now think about this. Just a few months ago, we had a State

00:07:01.420 Department that was all tangled up in woke ideology. You know, we were outsourcing our American

00:07:07.160 foreign policy to NGOs that were constantly undermining our values. We had a government that was handing

00:07:13.880 out billions of dollars in aid while our borders were wide open and enemies like China were buying up

00:07:19.460 influence in Panama, buying up farmland in Peoria. I mean, it was crazy. And that's all over now. 0.95

00:07:27.840 Rubio has hit the brakes on the Belt and Road madness. We have now, did you know that we fixed Panama, 0.99

00:07:35.860 the Panama Canal? He secured Panama's exit from Beijing's grip. He told Latin American leaders,

00:07:42.360 you want a relationship with the U.S.? Then stop sending your people across the border and start taking 1.00

00:07:46.940 responsibility. That's not a press release. This is leadership. And it's happening at the State

00:07:54.400 Department. And most shockingly of all, I think he shut down the Global Engagement Center, that

00:08:01.100 Orwellian outfit that was, you know, masquerading as a disinformation watchdog, but was actually

00:08:08.340 a censorship mill from the U.S. government. Gone. That alone, we should be standing, give him a standing

00:08:15.540 ovation for. Now, it's still the State Department, so, you know, but you can feel the gears turning

00:08:22.720 differently now. The agency is being gutted of its dead weight, of its activist layers. They're all being

00:08:29.460 peeled back and rebuilt on this simple idea. The United States of America must speak clearly,

00:08:37.500 act decisively, and defend its own citizens and values first. I mean, look what's happened.

00:08:44.580 Terrorists? Yep, they're called terrorists. They're on the run. Cartels? Now, designated as

00:08:51.300 terrorist organizations. Watch what happens there. Visas for criminal aliens, revoked. Students who

00:08:58.000 abuse our generosity to promote jihadist propaganda, you're out. I mean, this is not just a shift in

00:09:04.840 policy. It is a shift in philosophy. This is really good news. And what it is saying to the world is,

00:09:11.360 we are no longer confused on who we are. We're not here to play international babysitter. We're not

00:09:18.540 here to sign treaties that handcuff our economy or finance global instability under the banner of

00:09:24.440 aid anymore. We're here to defend American interest and nothing else. Now, you contrast that with the last

00:09:32.760 few years, you know, embassies flying the rainbow flags, you know, Iranian proxies blowing up oil

00:09:39.320 tankers, bent over backwards trying to, you know, kiss the butt of Tehran. I mean, that chapter is over,

00:09:47.440 and it couldn't have ended soon enough, but I can't believe that that chapter is over. You have to read

00:09:52.980 the substack from the State Department. We are now saying loud and clear, America is no longer a

00:10:00.540 doormat. America is no longer a cash machine. America is no longer ashamed. Yes, we've made

00:10:08.960 mistakes, but you made them too. Now, is this making some foreign policy people very uncomfortable? Oh,

00:10:16.260 yeah. Oh, yeah. The Davos crowd, they hate it. WEF, they hate it. The UN, oh, my gosh. The think tanks,

00:10:22.700 they're screaming right now. And the New York Times is going to talk about tribalism and isolationism

00:10:28.460 and authoritarianism. But you know what? That's how you know it's working. That's how you know we're

00:10:33.720 on the right track. Because for once, we're not admiring the problems, we're solving them.

00:10:40.600 And if this continues, we might just remember what it feels like to lead and be free again.

00:10:48.280 I want to give you some of the words that Rubio is releasing now under the substack. You have to

00:10:59.980 read some of it. It's amazing. Let me give you the latest. It was posted, I think, yesterday. It's

00:11:06.740 the Clash of Civilizations, the need for civilizational allies in Europe. And it builds

00:11:14.300 on what Marco Rubio, I'm sorry, what J.D. Vance said when he was over in Germany. Look, guys,

00:11:20.640 there are certain values that we can't abandon anymore. And there are two rules of thought

00:11:26.920 here. And this is what we probably learned in school and then forgot. The Clash of Civilizations.

00:11:32.000 This is a thesis that the people's cultural and religious identities will be the primary source

00:11:38.880 of conflict in the post-Cold War world. This came from Sam Hutchinson. He was a political theorist

00:11:46.180 and political scientist. And he argued the future would be fought not between countries,

00:11:52.400 but between cultures. And we couldn't, I don't think we could really get our arms around that

00:11:59.720 because the Western culture was winning. And it was proposed in 1992 at the American Enterprise

00:12:06.640 Institute. And then in 1993, it was an article. And this is what gave birth to Francis Fukuyama's

00:12:18.720 book, The End of History and the Last Man, where it was a completely different philosophy.

00:12:25.840 And that's the one that the State Department of the rest of the world went with.

00:12:29.340 We're going, what we're seeing actually is the Clash of Civilizations is right, that the Western 0.95

00:12:38.220 way of life is under attack. And it's under attack internally and externally. Let me, let me give

00:12:45.400 you this, because this is worth really listening to. Because this is a message that our State

00:12:52.520 Department just said, sent to the rest of the world, and every American should know it as well.

00:12:57.420 The need for civilization, civilizational allies in Europe. Let me read it verbatim here. The close

00:13:04.620 relationship between the United States and Europe transcends geographic proximity and transactional

00:13:10.780 politics. It represents a unique bond forged in a common culture, faith, familial ties, mutual

00:13:18.680 assistance in times of strife, and above all, shared Western civilizational heritage. Our transatlantic

00:13:26.380 partnership is underpinned by a rich Western tradition of natural law, virtue ethics, and

00:13:33.580 national sovereignty. This tradition flows from Athens and Rome through medieval Christianity to

00:13:40.340 English common law and ultimately to America's founding documents. Our declaration's revolutionary

00:13:46.180 assertion that all men are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights echoes the

00:13:51.500 thoughts of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas and other European heavyweights who recognized that all men

00:13:57.920 possess natural rights and that no government can deny or arbitrate any of those rights. America

00:14:06.940 remains indebted to Europe for this intellectual and cultural legacy. This connection between Europe and

00:14:14.540 the United States is also the reason that we now speak honestly when we disagree or have concerns and it is why the

00:14:21.740 Trump administration is sounding the alarm in Europe. You know, if if their press hadn't made Donald Trump look like

00:14:28.940 Hitler, this would be such a powerful message. Imagine being over in a country, you know, in the Netherlands or 0.96

00:14:35.960 Germany or whatever, you're seeing your country overrun and you're seeing your friends being called terrorists exactly like what was

00:14:42.180 happening here in America. And nobody on your side is standing up in Europe. There's no leadership.

00:14:49.960 Listen to this.

00:14:51.580 When Vice President Vance addressed this year's Munich Security Conference, he made the reason clear stating,

00:14:58.060 what I worry about is the threat from within, the retreat of Europe from some of its most fundamental values, values shared with the United States of America.

00:15:08.260 In the aftermath of two devastating world wars, European nations sought to prevent future catastrophes by creating

00:15:16.940 supernatural structures that would bind nations closer together and allow for more substantial diplomatic and economic

00:15:25.100 engagements. This is from the State Department. Proponents of this new order, including well-meaning Christian and

00:15:31.340 pro-democracy parties, sought a grand transformation to a world that would transcend the divisiveness of nationality and

00:15:39.120 creed to usher in an era of unprecedented peace. By overcoming the anchors of nationhood, culture, and tradition, global liberalism

00:15:49.940 promised what Francis Fuqua, whatever, famously called the end of history, the ultimate innovation of political life.

00:16:00.480 Today, this promise lies in tatters. This is so important. Today, this promise lies in tatters. What endures instead is an

00:16:10.340 aggressive campaign against Western civilization itself. Listen to that again. What endures is an aggressive campaign

00:16:18.360 against Western civilization itself. Across Europe, governments have weaponized political institutions against their own

00:16:25.660 citizens and against our shared heritage. Far from strengthening democratic principles, Europe has devolved

00:16:33.580 into a hotbed of digital censorship, mass migration, restrictions on religious freedom, and numerous other assaults on

00:16:40.900 democratic self-governance. These concerning trends have only increased in recent years. In the United Kingdom, police are

00:16:48.160 arrested for arresting Christians for silently praying outside of an abortion clinic. In 2023, over 12,000 British citizens were

00:16:56.720 arrested for online posts, including comments critical of Europe's migration crisis that authorities deemed to be grossly

00:17:05.120 offensive. In Germany, the government has established elaborate systems to monitor and censor online speech under the guise of

00:17:12.140 combating disinformation and presenting offense. When the German citizens expressed legitimate concerns about the

00:17:18.220 economic and social impacts of globalization or criticized politicians, they now risk being fined, labeled as radicals, or even

00:17:25.700 having homes raided by law enforcement. The European Union's Digital Service Act, billed to protect children from

00:17:33.480 harmful online content is instead being used to silence dissident voices through Orwellian content moderation.

00:17:41.520 Independent regulators now police social media companies, including prominent American platforms like X, and threaten immense

00:17:49.480 fines for non-compliance with their strict speech regulations.

00:17:55.260 Let me continue what comes from our State Department here in just a second. It is a massive shift.

00:18:00.820 Give me 60 seconds. You're going to understand if you listen to the whole podcast today, you're going to understand why

00:18:06.780 Lear Capital is so important. And I'm going to give you some things that you need to know and that you need to do and some

00:18:14.880 things that you need to probably call your Senate, Senator and Congressman on with this big, beautiful bill. The, the idea that

00:18:23.000 we're going to raise the debt ceiling $4 trillion and we're not taking any cuts seriously is sending the exact wrong message and

00:18:30.800 you're about to feel it. You're about to feel it in a big way, unlike I think we've ever felt

00:18:36.260 our debt ever before. So please

00:18:40.100 do the things that you need to do

00:18:42.760 to stay healthy financially.

00:18:46.480 If you have saved and saved and saved for

00:18:48.860 your retirement, I got news for you.

00:18:51.760 You know, your dollar has lost half its value.

00:18:55.120 Um, it just won't buy the same things. I mean, I showed you this the other day, the gas price now

00:19:00.660 is it what three Oh three. It was for the last weekend. It was the lowest price since 2002, but

00:19:07.300 wait a minute. I don't remember prices being three Oh three in 2002. No, of course not. It was a dollar

00:19:12.780 50. So that just shows you inflation. What could buy a gallon of gas at a dollar 50 now is $3, but it's the

00:19:23.900 same. You're, you're making the same amount of money. It's just the prices have gone up. Okay.

00:19:29.540 That's what's happening. You're not, if you have saved and saved and saved, if you are saving in

00:19:34.000 dollars, you could be in real trouble. Please find out if gold or silver is right for you. I want you to

00:19:40.020 go to Lear Capital, Lear Capital. Just call them at 800-957-GOLD, 800-957-GOLD. Do it now. 10 seconds. Station ID.

00:19:49.100 So Secretary Rubio is going on and he talks about what's happening in Germany, what's happened in

00:20:09.200 England. And then he says, Americans are familiar with these tactics. Indeed, a similar strategy of

00:20:15.240 censorship, demonization, and bureaucratic weaponization was utilized against President

00:20:20.420 Trump and all of his supporters. What this reveals is that the global liberal project is not enabling

00:20:27.820 a flourishing of democracy. Rather, it is trampling our democracy and Western heritage along with it in

00:20:35.500 the name of a decadent governing class afraid of its own people. Our concerns are not partisan,

00:20:43.100 but principled. The suppression of speech, facilitation of mass migration, targeting of

00:20:48.980 religious expression, and undermining of the electoral choice threatens the very foundation

00:20:54.840 of the transatlantic partnership. Do you hear this? We are now putting Europe on notice.

00:21:01.080 And good, this is critical that we do this. And you know what? If you're a Democrat, you would have

00:21:07.420 been for this. You've changed. Okay? I've changed. I used to be for much more of this globalist crap.

00:21:16.580 It's wrong. It doesn't work. Most likely, if you were a liberal, you were against it. You were against

00:21:22.280 all these endless wars. Why are you? What new information have you gotten that changes your point

00:21:29.940 of view? I can tell you what information changed me from that globalist to somebody who is now looking at

00:21:35.360 this and going, look, they're violating all of our constitutional rights. And both parties are

00:21:40.780 engaged in it. One's worse than the other, but both parties are engaged in it. I can tell you why I

00:21:45.600 changed. Why did you change? What new information took you away from those eternal truths?

00:21:53.700 Anyway, a Europe that replaces its spiritual and cultural roots, that treats traditional values as

00:21:59.960 dangerous relics, and that centralizes power in unaccountable institutions, is a Europe less

00:22:06.420 capable of standing firm against external threats and internal decay. To this end, achieving peace in

00:22:13.220 Europe and around the world requires not a rejection of our shared cultural heritage, but a renewal of it.

00:22:20.040 Secretary Rubio has made it clear the State Department will always act in America's national interest.

00:22:25.540 Europe's democratic backsliding not only impacts European citizens, but increasingly affects American

00:22:32.340 security and economic ties, along with free speech rights of American citizens and companies.

00:22:39.180 Our hope is that both Europe and the United States can recommit to our Western heritage,

00:22:45.100 and that European nations will end the weaponization of government against those seeking to defend it.

00:22:50.240 We will not always agree on scope and tactics, but tangible actions by European governments to

00:22:57.080 guarantee protection for political and religious speech, secure borders, and fair elections would

00:23:03.900 serve as welcome steps forward. The United States remains committed to a strong partnership with

00:23:09.960 Europe in working together on shared foreign policy goals. However, this partnership must be founded

00:23:16.100 upon our shared heritage rather than globalist conformity. Our relationship is too important,

00:23:23.140 our history is too valuable, and the international stakes are too high to allow this partnership to

00:23:28.540 be undermined. Therefore, on both sides of the Atlantic, we must preserve the goods of our common

00:23:34.880 culture, ensuring that Western civilization remains a source of virtue, of freedom, and human flourishing for

00:23:42.660 generations to come. That came from our State Department. You have got to check out what Rubio and the State

00:23:51.220 Department are doing on their new substack. You can just follow them on X, or just go to the State

00:23:57.060 Department. We are sending strong messages and actually standing up for our values.

00:24:03.500 That is new and exciting. All right, everybody into a steak and think, wow, this tastes like it was

00:25:28.420 Welcome to the GlennBeck program. It's Thursday. There's a lot going on. You know, I was haunted by

00:25:53.380 something we talked about yesterday, this Whoopi Goldberg clip where she was like, you know,

00:25:57.160 they were talking about, you know, the original sin book and why we need to know, you know,

00:26:04.680 who was actually running the White House. And she said, what difference does it make now? Oh my gosh,

00:26:09.720 you're so stupid. I just, I have a really hard time being nice. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said

00:26:14.940 that. Jesus wouldn't have said that, but Jesus wasn't around with Whoopi Goldberg. Anyway,

00:26:18.400 and I just, I want to just set this next story up with this. Does the truth matter? Okay. I asked

00:26:31.280 Grok this morning, why does truth matter in a civilization? I want you to listen to its answer.

00:26:38.340 Because truth is the foundation of trust, justice, and progress. Now, let's see if you can check any of

00:26:49.520 these boxes. Without truth, societies fall into confusion. Yep. Corruption. Yep. And conflict. Yep.

00:27:00.540 Shared values enable informed decisions. Not happening. Accountability. Not happening. And

00:27:08.220 cooperation. Not happening. When truth is devalued, manipulation thrives. Yep. And institutions collapse.

00:27:18.120 Yep. So Whoopi, that's why the truth matters. Okay. That's why we have to solve things. Which brings me

00:27:24.980 to another story that is breaking today and was out yesterday. The newly declassified FBI document

00:27:32.480 that Nellie Orr, do you remember her name? She was up on our chalkboard for a very long time,

00:27:37.700 her and her husband. She was the contractor for Fusion GPS, the firm that was hired by the Clinton

00:27:45.020 campaign to dig up opposition research on Donald Trump. Now it shows in a newly declassified documents

00:27:53.540 that she likely lied to Congress. Well, I am just shocked. Well, I think I have a case of the

00:27:59.540 vapors after hearing that. She denied knowledge of the Justice Department's Russia investigation.

00:28:05.340 She distanced herself from the creation of the Steele dossier. She downplayed her interactions with

00:28:11.280 federal officials. But the FBI's own internal analysis contradicts all of her sworn testimony. Okay.

00:28:18.240 So we've had this for a while, but the Justice Department didn't do anything. I mean, this is not

00:28:25.300 speculation. This is documented. An analytical error in the Steele dossier matched the one found in her

00:28:34.440 own research. So how did that happen? Is that just a wild coincidence? Emails also showed awareness of

00:28:42.480 ongoing investigations. She handed her DOJ-connected husband, Bruce Orr, a thumb drive of all of the

00:28:50.560 research that fed directly into the FBI's Russia probe. The Bureau identified multiple times when

00:28:58.620 she gave false testimony. So we've known this for a while. The classified documents were declassified.

00:29:05.660 We've known this for a while. All of this was up at the DOJ. No charges, no accountability,

00:29:09.700 absolutely no consequences on any of it. Does the truth matter? Yes. Why? Because civilization is

00:29:20.420 built on the truth, and without it, everything begins to collapse. So the Department of Justice

00:29:27.280 handed a criminal referral. They did nothing. The FBI itself acknowledged the likelihood of perjury

00:29:36.340 there and yet didn't do anything. So is that justice? Is that justice or is that a cover-up?

00:29:42.840 It's the same DOJ that launched an aggressive, sweeping investigation into Donald Trump based

00:29:48.120 on the Steele dossier, which we know now was completely bogus, and the investigation proved

00:29:57.280 ultimately nothing. And then they turned a blind eye to those who created and promoted that dossier

00:30:03.760 under false pretenses. The same agency that surveilled American citizens now refuses to prosecute its

00:30:10.980 own. Bruce Orr, her husband, was a senior Justice Department official, maintained an official back

00:30:19.360 channel with Christopher Steele, even as the FBI said he's not credible, and cut ties with him for

00:30:26.360 unauthorized leaks. That was in 2016. He was in his position still at the Justice Department in 2020.

00:30:34.040 Nellie Orr, meanwhile, told Congress she took a ham radio class before her employment with Fusion GPS.

00:30:40.700 Why? Why is that important? What? Oh, now they want to know if she took a ham radio class. Oh, it's her hobby.

00:30:47.200 Is it? Consider that ham radio provides a way to communicate internationally without leaving any

00:30:53.900 digital traces. Records show she took those classes during her time at Fusion GPS, something she said

00:31:03.480 the opposite of. This is not incompetence. This is obstruction.

00:31:11.960 Here's the point that has to be made for anybody who says, ah, it doesn't matter. There was a time

00:31:19.460 when American justice was the envy of the rest of the world. And not because it was perfect. It wasn't.

00:31:25.720 It was horrible. But for the most part, it was incorruptible. Courts could not be purchased. The

00:31:35.720 truth did matter. The law applied equally. Again, not saying this was forever, and I'm not saying it was

00:31:43.480 it was applied equally, especially in the South. We know all of those problems. But we were trying to

00:31:50.360 get better at that. We weren't rejecting the whole thing. We were saying, this is what JFK came in and

00:31:57.840 did, NARFK. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We see what's going on down there, and that's against

00:32:03.500 the Constitution. And so the federal government will step in and correct that. Because the foundation,

00:32:10.220 the principles of blind justice, is the foundation that separated us from the regimes that, you know,

00:32:18.680 where the power dictated the outcomes, you know, and the powerful always walked free. It didn't

00:32:23.780 happen here in America. But that foundation is cracking badly. And justice in America cannot survive

00:32:33.760 if lying under oath, manipulating intelligence, politicizing federal power are tolerated when

00:32:41.380 it's done by the right people. The justice system does not exist to protect a narrative. It exists to

00:32:50.300 uphold the law. And without any accountability, there is no justice. And without justice, there is no

00:32:56.760 republic. This is why the truth matters. This is why we must still pay attention to these things

00:33:04.440 and punish the people who did the wrong things. And I don't care who they voted for or what they

00:33:10.020 believed in. If they did wrong, they should be punished after a free and fair trial where the judges

00:33:17.420 are not corrupt, where the judges aren't bought off to some political theory, but they are beholden to

00:33:24.220 the Constitution. And the reason why I bring this up is because, I mean, we spent a lot of time with

00:33:30.640 the oars and, and, and they spent a lot of time on our chalkboard, you know, because they were very

00:33:37.060 involved in the corruption there. But it matters also, I bring it up now and use them as an example

00:33:43.360 because they are, it's not isolated. Okay, this is, this, this is, these two are just symptoms of a much

00:33:53.560 deeper problem, a dual system of justice, where your political affiliation, or the courtroom you're in

00:34:01.120 because of the judges of political affiliation, determines the outcome. This is not lawful, it's not

00:34:08.880 sustainable, and it is definitely not American. And to use the language of the left, this is a danger

00:34:15.260 to our democracy. Justice must return. And it has to return through fair trials based on facts. Those

00:34:26.720 in government, especially those embedded deep within its institutions, who broke the law, who lied, who

00:34:34.140 covered up their actions, must be prosecuted with a full force of the law. No exceptions, no delays,

00:34:40.460 no deals. And you'll say, well, Hillary Clinton got away with it. Yeah, she did. And I don't think we're ever

00:34:47.580 going to go after her. And that's wrong. We should, no matter who they are, no matter what walk of life, or

00:34:54.020 social status they're in, everyone should be under the same law. But you can start here. Because if you send a

00:35:03.700 very strong message to the people who are in the government, when the people like Hillary Clinton

00:35:10.180 come to them and say, hey, just do this, and don't worry, you're going to be protected. No, no, Madam

00:35:15.740 Secretary, I won't be protected. You apparently will be, but I'm not doing your dirty work. You want to do

00:35:22.440 it, you do it. I'm not involved. That is what has to happen. No exceptions, no delays, no deals. And if it

00:35:31.220 doesn't happen, we are going to slide into the same kind of corrupt system and decay that defines every

00:35:37.580 third rate government all around the world, where courts are all for sale, the laws are just for their

00:35:43.740 enemies, and the power protects itself. Do you want to live in that kind of an America? I do not.

00:35:52.100 So you may not like the other side. You may not like the person you didn't vote for. But can we

00:36:01.260 can we more ourself in values and principles again? This is what Marco Rubio was doing with the State

00:36:07.720 Department. And it is right. Can we root ourselves in principles and forget about politics for at least

00:36:16.060 a little while? This is not about an enemy's list. This is about the last line of defense.

00:36:26.220 Because that's what justice is. It's not a principle. It's the last line of defense. And if it fails,

00:36:33.360 everything else will fail. So we got to find a way to each other and stand up for justice, real blind

00:36:42.580 justice again. It's what we fought for. It's what Martin Luther King died for. It's what we've always

00:36:50.100 said. Yeah, okay. All right. All right. You're right. You're right. It's bad. It's it's an injustice.

00:36:56.840 There is an injustice everywhere, right? We have to fix that. Now what you're being told is scrap the entire

00:37:05.400 system. No, fix it. And it is fixable. It's not that complex. You want to fix the justice system?

00:37:14.920 Easy. Stop playing politics with the truth. The truth is the truth. It doesn't matter who said it.

00:37:23.660 It doesn't matter how it all unfolded because they were voted this way and they voted that way. No,

00:37:30.080 it's the truth. No matter who did it. If we can get back there, we will do our country and our

00:37:41.280 children and our children's children a giant favor because we'll be able to handle a hand over to

00:37:48.860 them a stable country. And in that, what we all want, I mean, you know, the left always says,

00:37:57.320 you know, Hamas mothers, they just, they want the same thing that every mother wants. No, 1.00

00:38:02.580 they don't. No, they don't. Hamas mothers, not Palestinian mothers, blanketly, Hamas mothers, 0.97

00:38:10.360 Islamist mothers want their sons to die in jihad. Okay. I'm not expecting everybody to jump on the

00:38:21.080 bandwagon with all mothers just want their kids to live in peace and grow and prosper. Nope. 0.96

00:38:25.960 They, some don't, but do you still feel that way? Do you still feel that, you know, I forget politics.

00:38:34.920 I wish all these politicians would be sucked up into a giant tornado in the sky because it's

00:38:41.720 politics that's killing us. But if we can just find our way to each other back to our principles,

00:38:47.780 we'll make it. All right. Back in just a second.

00:38:50.960 Let me tell you about cozy earth. I mean, Stu, is any of this stuff helpful? You know, I, I thought

00:38:58.040 about this before I went on the air and I was putting the show together today. And now I just

00:39:01.300 thought about it again at the end of that. I'm like, I don't know if that's, I don't know if

00:39:04.840 that's anything you need as a listener. And I, I try really hard not to waste your time. Um, but I,

00:39:11.500 I have no idea sometimes.

00:39:13.460 People totally need comfortable sheets. I don't know why you'd even hesitate about that. They,

00:39:18.060 they love comfortable.

00:39:19.520 All right. So let me, then let me go on about cozy earth. You jerk. Here comes, there comes

00:39:24.660 a point in man's life, usually right after he makes the, you know, who took the remote

00:39:29.340 noise after just standing up when he realizes that comfort isn't a luxury, it's survival.

00:39:35.120 Damn it. And that's why there's cozy earth.

00:39:37.380 I don't know how they do it. Uh, but they've managed to turn bed sheets, lounge wear, even

00:39:43.060 a robe into something that feels like you bribed a cloud to hug you for eight hours.

00:39:47.900 Um, but father's day is right around the corner. And this is your chance to upgrade dad from

00:39:52.060 a man who falls asleep in the recliner, watching history documentaries to sleeping legend. Okay.

00:39:57.360 Wrapped in temperature regulating comfort. And that's important. And yes, my wife wears their

00:40:03.240 pajamas all the time. And no, I don't care who knows it. I wear the

00:40:07.360 pajamas. I have a hard time not changing into my pajamas at four o'clock in the afternoon.

00:40:11.800 And that's not because I'm getting old and I have to go to bed at four o'clock in the afternoon.

00:40:15.860 It is because they're so comfortable. It's lounge wear. This is a cozy earth. Oprah is one of their

00:40:23.040 favorite things for four years in a row. And I'm telling you, it's true what they say. Even a stop

00:40:27.740 clock is, you know, right, you know, twice a day, or at least they're right when they're talking about

00:40:32.880 comfort and luxury. Cozy earth. It's one of my favorite things as well. Comfort is the gift that

00:41:06.440 As a dad, I can tell you what dads want for Father's Day. It's right here in this box right

00:41:37.300 line, you know who wrote it. It had to be Pat Gray. Only Pat Gray could write that line. We're talking

00:41:42.320 about the Father's Day box from Kexi. This is a company we've talked to you about forever. This is

00:41:47.280 the easiest endorsement I've ever had to do in my entire life because not only do I love these cookies,

00:41:52.180 I've been eating them constantly for years and years and years and years. The origin of this company,

00:41:57.560 at least in my mind, is because Pat used to bring in these cookies just for random holidays and like,

00:42:04.520 oh, Christmas, here's some M&M cookies my wife made. And I would be like, you have to sell these things.

00:42:09.420 That's how I believe the company started. I will tell you, these are the best cookies you're going to

00:42:13.920 find anywhere. And this box is awesome. It's very nicely done. It's a great gift for anyone who, if anyone's

00:42:19.960 never had these cookies before, they're going to love you if you get them Kexi cookies. So let me tell you

00:43:01.720 yesterday I talked about, um, why the president, uh, and Congress cannot cut quickly, um, out of

00:43:13.820 our budget, but that does not mean a $4 trillion, uh, you know, new debt ceiling that that's insanity

00:43:21.920 and they have to cut. And there's some really good news. Unfortunately, the politicians are only doing

00:43:27.080 it because of politics. They want Elon Musk's money. It's so grotesque. Is there anyone, anyone

00:43:33.740 with an ounce of dignity left in Washington? Yeah. And the answer is yes, there's a few of them,

00:43:39.100 but a few of them. Um, we have to understand the place that we are in history right now with the

00:43:48.060 debt ceiling. And I'm going to explain what all of this means. I read something from Goldman Sachs and

00:43:53.280 advisor at Goldman Sachs yesterday afternoon. And I saw that and I was like, Whoa, wait a minute.

00:43:58.580 Wait a minute. That's not good. If I understand it correctly, I did some homework on it. I do

00:44:03.640 understand it correctly. And I'm going to explain it to you because my grandfather used to always say,

00:44:09.700 what do the rich people know back in the 1930s before the depression? What did they know that we

00:44:16.360 didn't know? Well, I'm going to give you that information next. Stand by.

00:44:24.340 This is Glenn Beck.

00:44:26.760 First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. At some point, you might have the realization,

00:44:30.320 wait a minute, wait a second. I'm paying them to fund what? Maybe you thought you were just

00:44:34.860 covering your cell phone bill, but surprise, surprise, a good chunk of that is helping advance

00:44:39.160 causes you would not support even if they were giving out free ringtones. You know, it's the 90s all

00:44:45.660 over again. The big mobile phone companies have turned to social activists with their cell towers

00:44:52.160 and they are busy donating to Planned Parenthood, gender lobbyists, whatever the latest woke campaign

00:44:57.560 is this week. And they're using your money. Stop doing business with them. This is why I'm proud to do

00:45:03.740 business with Patriot Mobile. They're the only Christian conservative wireless provider in America.

00:45:08.960 I want you to consider making the switch today from the phone company you're with to them.

00:45:13.620 Patriot Mobile. Do it. You'll get the same nationwide coverage, same tower, same phone,

00:45:18.500 same data, all of it. Except you're not destroying the country. You're helping build the country. I want

00:45:57.140 Oh, yeah.

00:46:04.340 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.

00:46:07.020 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:46:11.980 Down the road, where shadows hide.

00:46:14.740 Feel the dark on every side.

00:46:17.360 Stand your ground when times get dark.

00:46:19.740 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

00:46:24.600 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:46:28.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:46:35.200 Yesterday I talked to you about the big beautiful bill and the one thing that is tucked in there is debt.

00:46:41.340 Massive, massive debt.

00:46:43.820 And I told you why we can't move quickly on cutting the debt.

00:46:49.100 But we must cut the debt.

00:46:51.120 I told you to call your senator in Congress and I urge you to do this.

00:46:56.220 You know, they're right now, they're more open to it because Elon Musk said, you know, I'm turning off the spigot of funding politicians.

00:47:05.180 I don't think it makes a difference.

00:47:06.420 And now they're all like, wait, we could cut some of that doge stuff that we were for that the whole time. 0.99

00:47:11.380 They're so sickening.

00:47:12.400 But I want to talk to you about what we can do to get them to cut the debt because they have to send a signal to the rest of the world and anybody who is buying our debt.

00:47:26.220 Otherwise, we may hit the death spiral this time around when they raise the debt ceiling.

00:47:32.220 And if it's not this time, it probably will be the next time.

00:47:35.620 But we'll talk about that and try to put it in a way you can really understand because it really affects your life directly.

00:47:44.180 We'll get into that here in just a second.

00:47:46.320 Right now, let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

00:47:48.740 You know, not every real estate agent is good at their job.

00:47:51.880 You know, some are great.

00:47:52.860 Some are, well, you know, great at taking photos in front of cars that they don't own.

00:47:56.460 And when you're selling that house, that's not the time to learn which kind you've hired, the good one or the one taking the photos.

00:48:03.420 It's not a bake sale.

00:48:04.700 This is the single biggest financial asset you're about to sell or will ever buy or sell.

00:48:10.680 You need somebody who knows how to price strategically, stage effectively, market intelligently, negotiate like they've actually done this several times before because they have.

00:48:22.120 This is why I started my company, Real Estate Agents I Trust.

00:48:26.580 My team has vetted thousands of agents nationwide, not based on who has the flashiest website or the best headshot, but who has a track record of actually getting results.

00:48:37.200 They have a track record of treating people right.

00:48:39.840 They make the whole process less stressful, not more stressful.

00:48:43.500 They know the best business practices.

00:48:45.620 So whether you're buying or selling, whether you're moving across the street or across the country, in this market, you need someone you can count on, somebody you can trust.

00:48:54.300 So I recommend you go to my company, realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:48:58.580 We'll get the right agent for you.

00:49:00.180 Just tell us where you're moving and moving to and moving from, and we'll get the job done.

00:49:05.840 So I don't know if you saw that all of a sudden there's this big interest in cutting the debt and going with the doge cuts, and I saw these headlines come across yesterday afternoon, and I was like, whoa, wow, that's good news.

00:49:27.540 What's happening here?

00:49:28.840 No, it's not.

00:49:30.160 It's not.

00:49:30.680 It's just more of the same from these weasels in the Republican Party. 0.53

00:49:37.060 Elon Musk announced that he is not going to be spending money in the elections.

00:49:44.260 He said, I think I've done my fair share, and I don't know if it really even makes a difference.

00:49:49.780 So all of a sudden the Republicans who have been getting money from him are like, whoa, whoa, wait, Elon, we love you.

00:50:00.420 Those doge things you were doing, my gosh, we want more of that.

00:50:05.240 Were you thinking we weren't going to include that in the bill, in the big, beautiful bill, because we're including a lot of that, right?

00:50:11.160 Right, guys?

00:50:12.220 Yeah, absolutely.

00:50:13.120 Elon, we love you.

00:50:14.140 It's so slimy.

00:50:15.600 It's sickening.

00:50:16.260 But if that's the way they get to cuts, I'm all for it.

00:50:19.940 The doge cuts are the easiest cuts to make, and we must send a signal to the rest of the world that we are serious, because there's something coming that most Americans just don't understand, you know, and not because it's hidden.

00:50:41.580 It's right there in plain sight, but it's, you know, like all financial crimes, it's all dressed up in fancy acronyms and things that people half understand, and it all sounds like it's going to be good.

00:50:55.020 And eventually you start hearing the word that is the most important word, debt.

00:51:01.100 I've been hearing about a debt crisis since I was a kid.

00:51:05.720 There's going to come a time.

00:51:06.880 Well, this is the time.

00:51:08.660 We are here, so we have to talk about this.

00:51:12.860 Yesterday, I read something that came across my desk about, it was from an advisor at Goldman Sachs.

00:51:22.940 And just listen to this.

00:51:24.700 This made my head hurt.

00:51:27.080 Funding conditions remain easy, but can tighten meaningfully once the debt limit is raised.

00:51:34.640 Four trillion increase is likely included in this latest bill, as bill supply will drain bank reserves by several hundred billion.

00:51:42.760 I mean, it was like, I don't, now you've given me homework.

00:51:47.600 I don't want to, I need to understand that, but I don't want to do all the homework on it.

00:51:51.940 So, if you're hearing that, I know you're thinking the same thing, so I did some homework on it.

00:51:57.500 And if I may quote Admiral Ackbar, the debt, it's a trap, okay?

00:52:09.700 Congress is about to raise the debt ceiling, four trillion dollars.

00:52:14.320 And they're arguing about it, they're bickering back and forth, and you're going to see a press conference or two.

00:52:19.220 But in the end, they always raise it.

00:52:21.840 This time, four trillion dollars.

00:52:24.680 And the media will do what the media always does.

00:52:27.320 They'll say, oh, crisis averted.

00:52:29.360 But they're wrong.

00:52:31.300 They're wrong.

00:52:32.220 Because every time we raise the debt ceiling, it adds to the crisis, okay?

00:52:38.340 And this is the moment where maybe the final, we're maybe in final approach here.

00:52:45.600 And if it's not this landing, it might be the next landing.

00:52:49.060 But it's going to be one of the landings very, very close to now.

00:52:53.720 Now, here's why raising the debt ceiling actually affects you.

00:52:58.820 I don't know, Whoopi Goldberg.

00:53:00.580 What difference does it make?

00:53:03.020 Well, here's what difference it makes.

00:53:04.620 And this is something that no politician is going to tell you, or very few of them will tell you.

00:53:09.980 Nobody will really explain it in a way that I think you can then use.

00:53:15.760 So let me try.

00:53:18.900 What happens when they raise the debt ceiling?

00:53:22.200 They raise the debt ceiling and say, okay, the debt ceiling was we can't borrow any more than this because we're out of control.

00:53:28.760 So we can't borrow any more than this.

00:53:30.960 And then they borrow all of that.

00:53:32.600 And then they're like, okay, okay, okay.

00:53:34.040 But we can't borrow any more than this.

00:53:36.880 So this is the limit.

00:53:38.180 And then they raise the debt ceiling and they borrow all of that money.

00:53:41.040 And then they're like, okay, okay, okay.

00:53:42.640 But this time we really mean it.

00:53:44.620 We can't borrow more than this.

00:53:47.280 And the reason why they're saying we can't borrow more than this is because it's sending a message to the rest of the world.

00:53:54.320 And who specifically, I don't think people that are, you know, you know, average workers in England are thinking about this.

00:54:03.580 But the central banks are.

00:54:05.700 The sovereign funds are.

00:54:08.860 The major investment funds are thinking about this.

00:54:13.940 That's why they say, okay, this time we mean it.

00:54:17.200 Because all of those people with the big money to buy our debt are saying, you guys aren't serious.

00:54:23.080 So the debt ceiling is raised.

00:54:26.260 What does that mean?

00:54:27.360 The government has to print a bunch of T-bills, treasury bills, which is basically an IOU.

00:54:35.820 Okay.

00:54:36.460 We say, oh, we really need $4 trillion.

00:54:39.400 But we're going to give you this IOU and we're good for it.

00:54:42.880 Okay.

00:54:43.540 We're really super going to pay you back.

00:54:45.960 And the less people believe that, the less that they think, oh, no, they're serious, the higher the interest rate.

00:54:54.740 It's like going to a loan shark.

00:54:56.240 Eventually, you've got such bad credit, you can't go anywhere else.

00:54:59.720 And so you have to just keep raising the interest rates.

00:55:02.560 And before you know it, you're talking to a veto who's going to break your legs.

00:55:06.480 Well, we're almost there.

00:55:08.140 So they have to refill the cash drawer, right?

00:55:12.740 We have to spend this money.

00:55:14.980 So they raise the debt ceiling.

00:55:16.940 Now, who buys those?

00:55:18.500 Just told you.

00:55:19.320 Banks, pension funds, money market accounts, countries.

00:55:24.580 And how do they pay for them?

00:55:27.780 Well, they don't just have that money lying around.

00:55:30.540 It's cash they have already sitting someplace else.

00:55:37.040 So when they buy government debt, that cash leaves the banking system and moves over to the treasury so the government can have it and spend it.

00:55:48.280 And what's left in the banking system is a big IOU.

00:55:54.400 Hang on.

00:55:56.060 If you have me so far, good.

00:55:58.460 But hang on, because you're going to understand how this is going to affect your life personally in just a minute.

00:56:05.560 So this is like a giant vacuum.

00:56:08.220 It's a very powerful vacuum.

00:56:11.120 I think it's a Dyson.

00:56:12.320 Because it sucks up all of the money, all of the oxygen, all of the, quote, liquidity that nobody understands.

00:56:20.460 Well, liquidity, we're having a liquidity problem.

00:56:23.420 Nobody understands that.

00:56:25.180 My gosh, they can't tell you who the president of the United States is.

00:56:28.160 They're going to explain liquidity.

00:56:32.080 Okay.

00:56:33.480 Here's what it means.

00:56:35.960 Cash.

00:56:37.960 Cash at the bank.

00:56:40.380 Why is that important?

00:56:42.180 Why does that matter?

00:56:43.720 Whoopi Goldberg might say.

00:56:45.200 Because you need cash from the bank in the form of a credit card or in the form of an auto loan or a loan for your small business.

00:56:56.620 That's why this matters to you.

00:56:59.080 Less money in the bank means tighter credit.

00:57:03.060 Tighter credit means loans are going to get harder to get.

00:57:06.000 Interest rates go up.

00:57:08.320 Which means what?

00:57:10.280 If you have a loan, God forbid you have a variable loan, your interest rate on your house is going to go up.

00:57:15.800 Which means you're going to pay more for your house.

00:57:17.540 Which means you're not going to get a raise at work because businesses are drying up.

00:57:24.620 Because nobody has money.

00:57:25.820 Because this is affecting everybody.

00:57:28.140 Okay?

00:57:28.480 You can't get a mortgage.

00:57:30.480 You can't get a credit card.

00:57:31.920 You can't refinance.

00:57:33.340 Your small business doesn't get anything.

00:57:35.700 Why?

00:57:38.100 Well, because the government has all of that money.

00:57:41.800 Okay?

00:57:42.540 They just shrunk your financial oxygen tank.

00:57:45.400 They told you, breathe deep.

00:57:47.200 Breathe deep.

00:57:47.740 But they're taking the tank and not giving you the oxygen you might need.

00:57:51.920 Okay, so this also, when they raise the debt ceiling, affects you because it affects inflation.

00:58:02.240 Okay?

00:58:02.740 This is total sleight of hand.

00:58:05.440 Because the money doesn't disappear.

00:58:07.180 It's out of the bank.

00:58:08.040 But it goes to the, all they've done is transferred you were going to spend that money to they are going to spend that money.

00:58:15.560 So they just shifted it from banks and households to politicians and federal agencies.

00:58:21.920 From the real economy to the administrative state.

00:58:24.960 So that doesn't reduce inflation.

00:58:27.100 It just changes who spends your money.

00:58:30.380 It's not anti-inflationary.

00:58:32.720 It's anti-you.

00:58:36.340 We are running a system right now that is mathematically unsustainable.

00:58:41.480 And every time we raise the debt ceiling, we are not solving a problem.

00:58:45.600 Crisis averted.

00:58:47.240 We're compounding it.

00:58:48.560 The more we borrow, the more cash we suck out of the real economy.

00:58:54.920 So here's what this is going to mean.

00:58:57.640 Possibly.

00:58:58.540 In the coming months.

00:59:00.100 If they pass this, you're going to see business investment slowing down.

00:59:05.740 Your wage is not going to go up.

00:59:08.240 Unemployment is going to creep up.

00:59:10.260 Families have to tighten their budget.

00:59:12.160 The Fed is trapped.

00:59:14.760 Cut rates?

00:59:16.500 Inflation is going to go up.

00:59:18.240 Raise rates?

00:59:19.180 And the system falls apart.

00:59:21.320 They're out of bullets.

00:59:22.600 They're out of bullets.

00:59:24.620 And as this is all happening, you're going to be told, this is all normal.

00:59:27.720 Don't worry about it.

00:59:28.460 Everything is fine.

00:59:30.140 But it's not fine.

00:59:31.360 How long can a man live if every breath he takes is harder than the last breath to get oxygen?

00:59:37.100 Eventually, the oxygen runs out, and you're done.

00:59:41.060 No family, no business, no nation can survive if it spends more than it produces forever.

00:59:48.340 The clock is ticking, and you're going to be left holding the bill.

00:59:53.520 Higher cost, fewer opportunities, and no one in Washington willing to tell you the truth.

00:59:58.520 You know, we used to measure our wealth now, or then, in what we made, what we built, what we grew.

01:00:07.260 Now we measure our wealth, I guess, and how much debt we can sell before the system buckles.

01:00:13.840 That's not prosperity.

01:00:15.420 That is a countdown.

01:00:16.420 So, let me give you some solutions for you.

01:00:23.860 I want you first, before we get into that, I want you to call your senator, call your congressman, and demand the doge cuts.

01:00:33.860 At least send a signal to those who are buying our debt that we have some responsibility.

01:00:43.460 Put the doge cuts in.

01:00:47.460 The White House said they're sending them next week.

01:00:49.840 They just need to happen.

01:00:52.480 Do that.

01:00:53.240 Now, there are other things you need to do for your own personal survival and your own personal economy.

01:00:59.580 And I'll break that down here in just 60 seconds.

01:01:01.880 First, what an appropriate place to talk about Lear Capital.

01:01:06.800 You know, people look at debt, and they think, oh, well, we've always said that we've had a debt problem, and nothing changes.

01:01:12.940 Well, you'll notice no one has suggested that we do a stimulus package this time around.

01:01:19.120 Have you noticed that?

01:01:20.020 Not either side is not saying, we need a stimulus package.

01:01:24.060 They're saying, usually it's tax cuts and a stimulus package.

01:01:27.960 We can't afford that.

01:01:29.920 It won't work.

01:01:31.020 We can't afford it, and it will only drive inflation up.

01:01:34.680 We're out of that bullet.

01:01:36.320 So, history is full of people, full of people who say, it can't happen here.

01:01:42.940 People think the same thing until it's over.

01:01:46.060 How do people go bankrupt?

01:01:47.880 Over a long period of time, and then all of a sudden.

01:01:51.060 We're getting to the all of a sudden part.

01:01:53.340 You will see when I lay out what you need to do.

01:01:57.940 You will see I mean this with everything in me.

01:02:00.960 Please call Lear Capital and find out if gold or silver is right for you.

01:02:04.840 Your dollar is going to lose so much in value that you have to have something that holds its value.

01:02:12.960 The dollar has lost 85% of its purchasing power since 1971 with the deficits, the printing of money, historic speeds, debt piling up faster than any other time in all of human history.

01:02:28.160 What are you going to wait?

01:02:29.300 What are you waiting for?

01:02:30.660 Don't wait for the crisis to hit before you take steps.

01:02:33.640 Please take some of what you have saved and put it in gold or silver.

01:02:38.200 Diversify.

01:02:38.960 Get out of actual dollars.

01:02:40.980 And the stock market with at least some of your money.

01:02:45.860 Put it in gold or silver.

01:02:47.760 Find out if this is right for you.

01:02:49.160 It's not right for everybody, but you're smart enough to do your own homework.

01:02:52.260 Just don't fall into the trap of, oh, it's going to be this way forever.

01:02:57.580 It's not.

01:02:58.400 Call 800-957-GOLD.

01:03:00.360 800-957-GOLD.

01:03:02.180 Get your free $4,200 gold report before it's a history book.

01:03:05.620 Call them now.

01:03:06.340 800-957-GOLD.

01:03:07.900 You can also ask them about the $15,000 in free gold or silver with qualifying purchases.

01:03:12.740 Call them now.

01:03:13.460 800-957-GOLD.

01:03:15.800 10 seconds.

01:03:16.380 Station ID.

01:03:16.840 So I want you to know that this is not something I don't, I don't, I don't just talk about things on the air unless I really believe them.

01:03:36.160 And I want you to know I'm making some changes in my life and I am risking a great deal in the coming months.

01:03:47.580 And I'll let you know about that as we get closer.

01:03:50.000 But I'm probably taking the biggest gamble of my career and my life in the coming months because I believe in something.

01:03:56.820 But with that said, I want you to know yesterday when I saw this from Goldman Sachs, I thought, oh boy, okay, is this the right time to do it?

01:04:09.420 And, well, the answer is I don't ever do anything for money.

01:04:12.000 I do it because I believe in it.

01:04:14.300 And so what happens will happen.

01:04:16.720 You know, God will work it out.

01:04:17.740 But I am changing many things in my own life because I believe in this.

01:04:26.100 So we all have different situations.

01:04:29.620 But let me just talk to the people who say, you know, I got a job.

01:04:33.060 I have maybe some savings, but not a lot.

01:04:37.160 What do I do?

01:04:38.980 Okay.

01:04:40.740 Let me give you a goal.

01:04:42.280 Whether you can reach this or not, I don't know, but it's a goal.

01:04:45.980 Have six months of living expenses in cash or a cash equivalent.

01:04:53.680 So you know you can make it six months and pay your basic bills.

01:04:59.400 Avoid any new long-term commitments that will drain your flexibility.

01:05:04.500 What you have to remain is super nimble right now.

01:05:08.960 You have to have options in front of you right now.

01:05:13.240 Cut your recurring expenses now.

01:05:15.740 Eliminate or lock in subscriptions.

01:05:19.620 Look at your insurance, your utilities.

01:05:22.260 Cash flow is going to be king because something might happen and you're like, I got to have the cash.

01:05:28.300 Okay.

01:05:29.220 If you can do that, great.

01:05:30.600 If you can't, here's some other things.

01:05:34.300 Side hustles.

01:05:35.940 Set up yourself for a side hustle.

01:05:38.380 Any skill.

01:05:39.160 If you have the ability to go back to like a trade school, do it.

01:05:43.040 Any skill, mechanic, baking, childcare, tech, whatever it is, practice it right now, even part-time because you may need it later if your hours are cut or your job disappears.

01:05:56.640 Have, be working on a backup right now.

01:06:00.440 Most important thing you can do is build local resilience.

01:06:05.960 This is one of the reasons why I come up to the ranch and I've built my forever home up in Idaho in this small little farming community because I know these people.

01:06:17.180 And they are salt of the earth.

01:06:20.480 I mean, they, I'm going to tear up just thinking about them.

01:06:23.340 I go to church with these people and I listen to them and they are, they're just salt of the earth people.

01:06:30.240 You have to have your local community, your local church, because in hard times, networks equals net worth.

01:06:40.500 Okay, forget about net worth.

01:06:42.000 Think of networks.

01:06:44.480 Also, own something tangible, even a small garden, chickens, tools, something that can help you with independence.

01:06:53.160 And avoid any new debt.

01:06:55.480 If you don't need a new car, don't get one.

01:06:57.480 Non-essentials, vacation, if you can get it without it, or especially vacation homes, get out of it.

01:07:06.040 This is Glenn Beck.

01:07:20.920 I had one more thing that is so important on that list and it fits with American financing.

01:07:25.380 The most important thing you need to know is stop assuming things will bounce back right away.

01:07:30.700 That's normalcy bias and it kills you.

01:07:33.100 So, you're in debt.

01:07:34.640 You're behind the eight ball.

01:07:35.500 You've got high interest credit cards.

01:07:37.680 What do you do?

01:07:39.760 First thing you do, stop avoiding looking at it.

01:07:42.900 Okay?

01:07:43.540 There are mornings when you log into your bank account.

01:07:46.160 I mean, who was it?

01:07:47.280 The comedian that said, you know, I'm just thinking about, you know, letting that thing chill for a while.

01:07:51.820 I've seen this movie before.

01:07:53.580 I'm just not going to check my bank account.

01:07:55.960 Okay.

01:07:58.140 I want you to look at things and get somebody that is an expert that can help you that is not trying to sell you something.

01:08:08.760 This is American financing.

01:08:10.380 You know, your mortgage most likely sold to you by a bank and by people who got a kickback for selling you that mortgage.

01:08:20.180 That's not the same with American finance.

01:08:33.300 So, three judges from New York, two of them were Republican.

01:08:50.000 One of them was appointed, I believe, by Donald Trump.

01:08:53.040 And one, a Democrat, overturned his tariffs.

01:08:58.800 And they said, they said, it's too broad.

01:09:01.760 You can't do these things.

01:09:03.220 And then they also went into, you know, we're looking at that emergency.

01:09:06.540 We don't see how these tariffs are, you know, hurting the drug cartels, et cetera.

01:09:12.260 Yeah, well, you know, I didn't elect you, okay?

01:09:15.780 Don't tell me what you can and can't see.

01:09:17.500 Just tell me what the law says.

01:09:18.760 And what the law says, and Stu, you're better at this than I am, is that these are too broad.

01:09:23.720 And there are specific, you know, the president was given the power by Congress years and years

01:09:28.840 and years ago to levy tariffs.

01:09:32.900 However, there are specific things that he has to do, and he's just been too broad on it.

01:09:40.440 Yeah.

01:09:40.680 I mean, like the, you know, it's the way that, as you point out, the Constitution specifically

01:09:45.960 says this is Congress's responsibility to do tariffs.

01:09:49.260 Correct.

01:09:49.440 So in the moment where, you know, and I don't like this at all.

01:09:53.520 I know you're not a fan of it either.

01:09:55.540 You know, the Constitution shouldn't just be overridden by Congress saying, well, we

01:09:59.380 don't want that authority.

01:10:00.360 You should be able to do it.

01:10:01.600 I have that problem.

01:10:02.860 That's not what they're addressing specifically here, although they do hit that.

01:10:06.560 The way Congress gave that authority up to the president was to do it under very specific

01:10:11.960 circumstances.

01:10:13.400 It's a limited power.

01:10:14.540 And what they're saying is, you know, Trump overstepped his authority, if you will.

01:10:22.660 And the reason for that is the way the law is written.

01:10:26.360 The law gives this court the power to delineate these matters, to figure out whether he did

01:10:30.900 this appropriately.

01:10:31.740 Yeah, this is not something that's hearing divorce court tomorrow. 1.00

01:10:36.040 Right.

01:10:36.420 This is all they do is tariffs.

01:10:38.640 This is what they do.

01:10:39.280 And so one of the thing, one of the standards you have to hit is an extraordinary and unusual

01:10:44.600 emergency.

01:10:46.620 Now, there are two different parts of the tariffs that they overturned.

01:10:50.680 One was the tariffs that were like the Liberation Day tariffs, right?

01:10:57.440 The widespread tariffs over every country, you know, on Earth.

01:11:01.500 And those, it's sort of difficult to come up with a justification for an extraordinary

01:11:08.040 or unusual emergency on every single country on Earth.

01:11:11.380 And that was why one of the reasons they're saying it's too broad.

01:11:14.160 Now, he was kind of trying to justify that under the trade imbalance.

01:11:17.200 Of course, some of the countries he put these tariffs on, we have trade surpluses with, right?

01:11:22.080 So that way...

01:11:23.000 I disagree.

01:11:23.740 I think I've made the case for him on this program better than he's made the case for him.

01:11:29.800 And whether I agree with it or not, I think I understand what he was trying to do.

01:11:34.620 He's re...

01:11:35.200 The emergency is Western civilization and the Western world is collapsing.

01:11:40.160 And we've got to change it dramatically, quickly.

01:11:43.780 And so he's using tariffs to call these countries back to common sense.

01:11:49.440 That's what he's doing.

01:11:51.240 Now, beyond that, you know, he thinks it's going to bring in all this taxes.

01:11:54.780 And it did bring in some taxes.

01:11:56.640 But, you know, he thinks we can just tax our way out with tariffs.

01:12:01.920 I don't believe that.

01:12:04.740 But the emergency, I think he can make a case.

01:12:08.420 But I don't think he's made it well yet.

01:12:10.760 Yeah.

01:12:11.040 And again, like, this is sort of like a nerdy court, too, right?

01:12:14.800 Like, it's not really designed for, like, these sort of large moral or, you know,

01:12:22.080 civilizational sort of points.

01:12:24.060 It's like, hey, you know, does this particular industry affect this particular industry or

01:12:28.420 this product and this tariff hit this industry?

01:12:31.500 So it was just far too broad on that one.

01:12:33.980 And that one, I'm not at all surprised it was overturned.

01:12:36.360 And that bothers me, again, because if you're just looking at little teeny specific things

01:12:41.720 and I can't make a broad case to you, then what am I doing?

01:12:47.140 You know, you're fixing the defibrillator on the car when it's actually not just the defibrillator.

01:12:54.380 The whole car is about to go out.

01:12:56.660 So should we, should I have fixed the defibrillator or tried to, you know, replace the engine?

01:13:02.680 Well, I don't know.

01:13:03.860 I mean, you know, let me look at the defibrillator.

01:13:06.780 You have to be able to make a broad case.

01:13:09.680 And of course you can.

01:13:10.480 You just have to pass a law to do it, right?

01:13:12.500 You have to actually have to go through Congress and pass a law.

01:13:14.800 This particular power that has been assigned to the president is not designed to deal with

01:13:19.840 that type of thing, which is what their point is.

01:13:22.480 Now, again, you know, maybe this gets overturned, you know, somewhere else.

01:13:25.340 I don't know.

01:13:26.300 I mean, I know this particular court has this power, so there's not necessarily the normal

01:13:32.080 court process to go through here, but we might find out later on that something else changes

01:13:36.780 on this or that this court is, you know, somehow ruled unconstitutional.

01:13:40.560 The other part of it, though, I think is more arguable for the president, which is the tariffs

01:13:45.780 when it relates to fentanyl and it touches Canada and Mexico.

01:13:51.280 These also were overturned.

01:13:53.480 The reasoning there was more called on that he should have put these on particular items

01:14:00.140 that affect this particular problem.

01:14:02.460 So their argument basically was like, hey, the cartels, you're saying that there's a big

01:14:07.400 problem.

01:14:08.040 And another test is that the country isn't doing enough to stop it.

01:14:12.120 And I think you can really make that case pretty specifically with Mexico.

01:14:16.220 A little bit more difficult, perhaps, in Canada is that there's not as much flow of fentanyl

01:14:20.320 coming across the border there, but still you could make those arguments, I think, in

01:14:24.500 a specific way.

01:14:26.660 Their argument there was you can't just put tariffs on every single product coming out

01:14:30.860 of this country.

01:14:31.460 That's too broad.

01:14:32.180 Sorry, I disagree with it.

01:14:33.500 Again, because you don't understand the bigger picture or you won't look at the bigger picture.

01:14:38.540 They may understand it, but they'll say we can't look at it because we have to look

01:14:41.300 at these specific things.

01:14:42.200 Well, then you're missing the point.

01:14:44.700 You want the fentanyl to stop?

01:14:48.100 You've got to hit China with massive tariffs on everything.

01:14:51.700 Otherwise, they won't stop.

01:14:53.000 You want to get control of the border and fentanyl and human smuggling and everything else?

01:15:00.340 You could hit a few industries, but what difference does that make?

01:15:03.640 Because the entire government of Mexico is corrupt.

01:15:06.540 You have to make the entire thing hurt so badly that they have to look and finally, even

01:15:13.340 if they call us in the middle of the night and say, I never made this phone call, but

01:15:16.020 go, go, go.

01:15:17.160 Take these people out for us.

01:15:19.220 I mean, it won't work any other way.

01:15:21.700 Yeah, and I think you're, because a lot of that I agree with.

01:15:24.400 I think the, and I don't know that necessarily tariffs are the answer to that.

01:15:28.000 They might be.

01:15:29.160 I know President Trump believes that they are.

01:15:31.900 But I think your problem here is with Congress, right?

01:15:35.340 Like, the Congress needs to, if it wants the president to have powers to do all these

01:15:40.200 things, it would have to assign them.

01:15:42.120 Now, I would argue they also could just take them back and do it themselves, which is what

01:15:45.500 Congress should be doing as specifically listed in the Constitution.

01:15:51.260 But they're not.

01:15:52.280 You know, hang on just a second.

01:15:53.960 You know, Congress deserves the blame for almost all of this stuff.

01:15:57.440 The growth of the government, of the administrative state, it's not the president's fault.

01:16:02.380 It's not the president's fault.

01:16:03.240 It wasn't Joe Biden's fault.

01:16:04.280 It wasn't, you know, Bill Clinton's fault.

01:16:06.980 It's a lot of Lyndon Johnson's.

01:16:08.880 But yes, I agree, Congress was there too.

01:16:11.160 But what Congress did was they just decided we're not going to, we're just going to let

01:16:15.240 the administrative state go.

01:16:16.660 And then we'll just say, I don't know.

01:16:18.180 I mean, it's the administrative state.

01:16:19.920 And, you know, the secretary is making those decisions.

01:16:22.400 So we don't have to.

01:16:23.340 You know, if you put your child in charge of something and they farmed out all of their

01:16:30.320 responsibilities and said, you know, Dad, I gave that responsibility to my friend Bill

01:16:36.560 and my other friend Steve is part of that as well.

01:16:40.500 And, you know, I don't really have anything.

01:16:42.160 I told them they can make their responsibilities.

01:16:44.260 You would never say, oh, well, let me go talk to Bill and Steve.

01:16:47.780 You would say, I put you in charge.

01:16:51.680 You are responsible for these things.

01:16:54.500 But for some reason, the American people will not close that loop.

01:16:58.300 They just, they'll hate Congress.

01:17:00.220 But it's like they don't even know why they hate Congress.

01:17:03.380 Yeah.

01:17:04.020 Because there's nobody with a spine there that will stand up and say,

01:17:06.720 a constitution says I'm responsible for it.

01:17:10.780 So I have to be responsible and I have to act.

01:17:14.600 And they won't.

01:17:15.240 They'll just, like this, they'll just let the court do it.

01:17:18.000 And they'll be like, I don't know.

01:17:19.060 I don't know.

01:17:20.040 Yeah.

01:17:20.400 No, and I think you're right on that.

01:17:23.040 I think, you know, we always talk about the people who just continually get reelected,

01:17:26.720 no matter how terrible a job that they do.

01:17:29.280 And that is a massive part of the problem.

01:17:32.340 You know, this one in particular with the fentanyl issues with Canada and Mexico,

01:17:37.260 one of the other things they cited was, you know,

01:17:39.920 they weren't even necessarily saying it wasn't an emergency.

01:17:42.620 What they were saying, there wasn't enough, there wasn't enough support in the case that

01:17:46.800 they made to call it an emergency.

01:17:49.380 For example, they didn't get, let's say, backing from the DEA to say that Canada was doing a

01:17:54.480 terrible job on fentanyl.

01:17:56.580 Can they get, can Donald Trump's DEA get a report that says that?

01:18:01.120 Probably.

01:18:01.700 Yes.

01:18:01.880 So they probably could just resubmit this in a different way.

01:18:04.880 I mean, a lot of this has to do with these decisions are made, you know,

01:18:08.280 not with weeks and weeks and weeks of buildup.

01:18:10.380 A lot of times they're just kind of like put out there in a quick fashion and they're sort

01:18:14.360 of the people around them or hustle around to kind of try to make the case through the

01:18:20.080 normal process.

01:18:21.400 Yeah.

01:18:21.640 If they go through that normal process, they can probably get these done.

01:18:25.200 Yes.

01:18:25.700 And that's what I want.

01:18:26.860 I do not want to cut corners.

01:18:28.540 I do not want to just say, well, you know what?

01:18:31.140 No, that's what Joe Biden was doing.

01:18:34.600 No, if you want to do it, do it the right way.

01:18:37.620 And if they are saying, well, you've got to get your own administration to produce this

01:18:41.540 and this and this, you know, then it would be legal.

01:18:44.180 Then fine, do that.

01:18:45.720 I mean, Trump is going to come back and he's going to reassert these.

01:18:48.860 The markets went up yesterday because the rich people, you know, the corporations, the

01:18:53.680 giant corporations are like, oh, well, we'll be able to do trade all over the world

01:18:58.120 now.

01:18:58.540 And maybe inflation will come down because of the fear of what is going on.

01:19:05.120 So the futures and the stock market and everything went up yesterday.

01:19:09.340 But, you know, don't look at that as any real sign other than the fact that the markets don't

01:19:16.580 think tariffs are good.

01:19:17.760 They think they are taxes.

01:19:20.700 And I agree with that.

01:19:23.560 But they also are looking at, oh, good, the pressure is off of us and we're going to be

01:19:27.920 able to, you know, do business as usual, which I don't think is a good thing.

01:19:31.320 And don't get too excited because Donald Trump is not done.

01:19:34.620 He's going to find a way to do it.

01:19:37.360 Legally, I don't, I do not want to infer that, oh, just find a way to do it.

01:19:42.700 No, find the right way to do it.

01:19:45.780 Find the legal way to do it.

01:19:47.500 If you believe in it, then it's worth doing it the right way.

01:19:50.560 And if there's no legal way to do it, then you have to change the law.

01:19:53.680 And if you can't change the law, then you don't do it.

01:19:56.240 Period.

01:19:57.380 All right.

01:19:57.780 Back in just a second.

01:19:59.000 Let me tell you about Z Factor.

01:20:01.040 You know, I got to tell you, I don't know what happened.

01:20:04.120 You know, they say that when you're older, you don't need as much sleep.

01:20:07.520 And so you stop sleeping as much as you.

01:20:11.880 I don't know about you, but I need sleep.

01:20:13.720 I mean, I'm tired all the time.

01:20:16.760 You know, I would like to have some sleep for the love of Pete.

01:20:20.560 You know, you wake up stiff.

01:20:22.340 You wake up a little groggy and not really rested and confused about, you know, why you

01:20:28.600 were holding a TV remote in your left hand and a bag of pretzels in your right hand.

01:20:32.220 But you figured, you know, I'm just part of getting older, I guess.

01:20:35.540 Well, getting terrible sleep is something that drives me out of my mind.

01:20:40.700 If I can't sleep at night, it drives me out of my mind.

01:20:42.940 That's why Z Factor is there.

01:20:45.020 Z Factor is a group of natural ingredients that just assist your body in doing what your

01:20:50.960 body is supposed to do. 0.99

01:20:52.300 And you are supposed to sleep.

01:20:55.820 You know, you don't file things away the right way.

01:20:59.120 You don't make sense of the work.

01:21:00.840 You know, some of your best work, when you've been noodling on an idea and going and going

01:21:04.740 and going and you sleep and the next morning you wake up and you're like, oh my gosh, how did

01:21:07.860 I not see that?

01:21:08.500 It's because you slept and your body has organized everything in your brain for you.

01:21:14.760 So this is a drug-free way to fall asleep, stay asleep.

01:21:18.240 It's called Z Factor.

01:21:19.780 Try it now.

01:21:20.980 Z Factor.

01:21:21.820 You can get it from the makers of Relief Factor at relieffactor.com.

01:21:25.480 Relieffactor.com.

01:21:26.520 It's Z Factor, and you can get it at Relief Factor or call 1-800-4-RELIEF.

01:21:34.180 1-800-4-RELIEF.

01:21:35.800 Z Factor.

01:21:39.280 Common sense ain't common anymore, is it?

01:21:44.000 Time to wake up and wrangle the sheep.

01:21:48.180 Glenn Beck continues next.

01:21:56.520 Religious persecution in conflict zones around the world is one of those stories that often

01:22:04.740 gets overlooked, and there is now a documentary that deals with all this.

01:22:08.460 It's called A Faith Under Siege, Russia's Hidden War on Ukraine's Christians.

01:22:13.380 This is a film that looks at a region once known as the post-Soviet Bible Belt.

01:22:18.840 This is, you know, it was rapidly growing at one point, and look, war turns a lot of this

01:22:24.500 stuff around, but this has been a specific threat against Christians in particular.

01:22:30.160 And when you have this occupation going on that has spread, you know, and continues to

01:22:36.180 expand, this situation gets worse and worse for the people who are victimized by it.

01:22:41.920 What the documentary captures is seized churches and tortured pastors and abducted children.

01:22:47.860 And like, you know, you can look at these governments and say, oh, I don't like this,

01:22:50.480 and I like this, and I don't like this.

01:22:51.940 We're talking about just people who have nothing to do with these decisions, right?

01:22:55.800 We're talking about people who are just trying to keep their faith alive in what now needs

01:23:00.620 to be secret.

01:23:01.820 The film recently gained exposure at the Museum of the Bible, and it's something that I think

01:23:26.800 I have some exciting things we're going to be announcing revolving around history in

01:23:43.800 the coming days and weeks.

01:23:46.080 One of them is I've partnered with PragerU on some projects.

01:23:51.060 I've been close with PragerU for a long time, but there's some projects that we're working

01:23:54.540 on together, but I just did something, one of their PragerUs, and this was for the graduating

01:24:01.140 class, if you will, of PragerU.

01:24:03.520 It's the commencement speech, and I want to play just a little bit.

01:24:07.680 It's available at PragerU.

01:24:09.660 Dear graduates, congrats on making it here.

01:24:13.820 But I have some tough news.

01:24:15.520 Your future, it's not guaranteed.

01:24:18.080 I know, I know that's not the usual, go chase your dreams spiel that you usually hear at

01:24:24.380 a commencement, but I'm not here to fluff reality.

01:24:27.560 I'm here to give it to you straight.

01:24:29.240 And the straight truth involves clay pots.

01:24:33.020 Clay pots.

01:24:34.620 And what someone found inside of those clay pots.

01:24:38.420 Picture this, it's 1947, Judean desert near the Dead Sea, dusty spot called Qumran, a bored

01:24:46.080 goat herder, takes a rock and chucks it into a cave, expecting an echo.

01:24:51.380 Instead, crack, pottery shatters.

01:24:54.720 So he climbs in and he finds clay pots stuffed with linen-wrapped scrolls, and not just any

01:25:01.300 scrolls, the oldest surviving copies of the Hebrew Bible from 300 B.C.

01:25:07.100 We now call them the Dead Sea Scrolls.

01:25:10.560 But think about this.

01:25:12.140 For centuries, the Jewish people faced invasions and atrocities, the Babylonians, the Romans,

01:25:18.060 the Nazis, you name it, scattered worldwide.

01:25:21.800 And what kept them going?

01:25:23.800 Faith in their God and their texts.

01:25:27.400 Then in 1947, right after the Holocaust and just before Israel's rebirth, the scrolls surface, 0.83

01:25:35.260 proving their story wasn't myth.

01:25:39.000 All because someone over 2,000 years ago hid those pots in a cave.

01:25:46.520 History is not someone else's job.

01:25:49.860 It's ours.

01:25:50.980 It's yours.

01:25:51.840 It's mine.

01:25:52.540 It's everybody's.

01:25:54.000 We have got to preserve it, the highs and the lows, all of it, in our own clay pots.

01:26:01.040 This is the next phase of my life.

01:26:08.080 It's all going to be about history and education.

01:26:12.000 And it is so important.

01:26:15.020 I mean, clay pots is what I heard in 2008 that, in my prayers, I didn't understand for a long time.

01:26:20.340 And it's what got me to start collecting American history and our American story.

01:26:26.420 And then, you know, it's turned into what will be soon a brick-and-mortar museum of the American story.

01:26:35.780 And we all have to preserve it.

01:26:38.160 We all have a role in this.

01:26:40.160 We have to learn our history, both the good and the bad.

01:26:43.040 And we have to preserve our own history.

01:26:45.800 And it makes a difference.

01:26:46.720 I mean, you know, I didn't know anything about my family's history.

01:26:50.400 And, you know, it's just full of a bunch of losers that, you know, there's no king or queen anywhere in my family tree.

01:26:58.500 But, you know, my great-great-grandfather and great-great-uncle both were in the Civil War.

01:27:06.100 And immediately, because they're back, you know, were captured and held in Andersonville.

01:27:10.400 But what happened in Andersonville for them makes a difference to me today.

01:27:14.220 And it is important that we preserve our family history and our country's history and learn as much as we can.

01:27:22.740 We'll have more coming up.

01:27:24.580 That's, by the way, on PragerU.

01:27:26.540 Here's Glenn Beck.

01:27:28.180 Here's a little bit of homework for you.

01:27:29.880 I want you to sit down for just a few minutes and make a list of the if-onlys.

01:27:35.740 If-only.

01:27:36.900 You know, the things you wish you had on hand before the emergency, like a generator.

01:27:41.240 If-only we had had a generator.

01:27:44.000 All of these different things.

01:27:46.440 What's right at the top?

01:27:47.840 Most likely what's at the top is medicine, medication.

01:27:55.380 Because if-only you had that, maybe things would be a lot different.

01:27:58.940 I want you to go to Jace.

01:28:00.060 They have a sale that ends this Friday.

01:29:14.220 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:29:20.520 Well, hello America. I've got some good news. There's a lot of good news actually today.

01:29:25.500 This one comes from the HHS. It's a huge victory announced yesterday and I'll tell you all about it here in just a second.

01:29:31.600 First, let me tell you about our sponsor. It's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

01:29:35.920 They are providing the opportunity for a limited interruption this half hour.

01:29:40.380 Israel is still under attack in villages and in cities and places where families are still picking up the pieces of the terror of October 7th.

01:29:48.720 I mean, it's just, it's so horrible.

01:29:51.940 Thousands of the most vulnerable, the elderly, the single moms, the children with no safety nets.

01:29:58.280 When the missiles fall or food runs out, they don't have anybody but you.

01:30:02.600 The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground bringing food, medicine and hope to those precious souls.

01:30:09.820 And the money we send them provides a survival package, food, boxes, blankets, firewood, basic things that mean everything.

01:30:17.560 God blesses those who bless his people.

01:30:20.420 And as Christians, we should be in the people rushing to the front of the line to help our spiritual brothers and sisters out.

01:30:27.080 Right? Your gift of $45 will help support their life-saving work by helping provide food, shelter and much, much more.

01:30:34.400 Bible says, I'll bless those who will bless you.

01:30:36.500 Supporting IFCJ is a spiritual stand.

01:30:39.080 It's showing up for God's people when it counts.

01:30:41.300 So please call 888-488-IFCJ.

01:30:43.880 That's 888-488-4325.

01:30:47.020 Or go to ifcj.org.

01:30:50.000 Ifcj.org.

01:30:51.960 All right, let me give you some good news here.

01:30:54.340 This is a post that was on X yesterday.

01:30:56.920 It came from the Health and Human Services Department.

01:31:01.380 They, well, I'll just read it to you.

01:31:03.640 HHS sent a letter to health care providers, risk managers and state medical boards urging immediate updates to treatment protocols for minors with gender dysphoria

01:31:14.960 based on HHS comprehensive review that found puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries have very weak evidence of benefit but carry risk of significant harms including sterilization.

01:31:31.440 Providers should no longer rely on discredited guidelines that promote these dangerous interventions for children and adolescents based on ideology and not evidence.

01:31:44.960 Wow.

01:31:47.420 Welcome to the return of common sense in medicine.

01:31:53.520 Now, RFK wrote that providers should avoid relying on the World Professional Health Association for Transgender Health.

01:32:00.960 That's a WPATH.

01:32:02.100 Remember, we talked about that years ago when it first started coming out, and it was insanity.

01:32:07.220 So now health care providers should not rely on that from HHS.

01:32:11.860 It was one year ago we did a special exposing them for being ideological fraudsters, WPATH, and, you know, they were doing, I mean, this is Frankenstein.

01:32:24.520 This is Frankenstein-like experiments on children and the mentally ill, all done with the support of the medical community in the name of science and gender-affirming care. 0.78

01:32:33.480 It's over.

01:32:34.800 Our doctors took them seriously.

01:32:36.800 They shouldn't have.

01:32:37.740 Now, here's what CNN said.

01:32:40.780 Kennedy's letter warns providers to avoid relying on guidelines from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health on Care and Transgender and Gender-Diverse People.

01:32:49.760 These and other guidelines based on so-called gender-affirming model of care should not be relied on for harm of our children any further, the letter says.

01:32:57.740 Good, good.

01:32:59.020 Kennedy says it's time for our doctors to now update all of the protocols.

01:33:03.520 Amen.

01:33:04.020 This is big news.

01:33:07.780 This is the first big step pulling us out of this death cult.

01:33:12.660 I mean, when you are chemically castrating our children in America and the doctors are calling that a good step forward, that's a spiritual disease.

01:33:22.740 And a lot of people voted for Donald Trump because they wanted to see an end to this.

01:33:29.720 And I hope this means that there is an end to it.

01:33:33.780 Dr. Oz is working on this, too, again, from CNN.

01:33:36.300 The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services also announced Wednesday, that was yesterday, it was launching an oversight initiative into hospitals that performed experimental sex trait modification procedures on children.

01:33:49.400 Administrator Dr. Oz said CMS will not turn a blind eye to procedures that lack a solid foundation of evidence and may result in lifelong harm.

01:34:00.300 Good.

01:34:01.620 We're not turning a blind eye to the children anymore.

01:34:04.840 We're saying this is wrong to do, and we're taking the right steps.

01:34:11.380 Now, all of this can be changed in the next election.

01:34:16.060 I mean, I hope not, but so much can change between now and 2020, 28, when we elect another president.

01:34:24.500 But I hope we start to see real improvement.

01:34:30.180 I know that a majority of Americans, for the first time since, can you tell me when, Stu, do you remember?

01:34:35.340 We looked this up when Americans said we were on the right track, wrong track.

01:34:39.640 And we looked at it and we're like, wait, we haven't thought we were on the right track since when?

01:34:44.680 Remember, it was a long time.

01:34:46.540 And for the first time, it's the majority.

01:34:49.140 It's over 50%.

01:34:49.500 And that's not, to be clear, not in every poll.

01:34:53.240 That is a poll that came out that showed that.

01:34:55.740 Like, the Gallup polls are still very much in the negative.

01:34:57.720 Oh, well, let me rain on your parade, too.

01:34:59.300 No, I'm just trying to give the poll picture.

01:35:01.460 Yeah, and those pants do make your butt look fat, okay? 1.00

01:35:05.480 I mean, what is that?

01:35:06.820 I will say it's up a little bit.

01:35:08.000 I mean, for sure, even in the polls that show it's still negative, it's still going in the right direction.

01:35:13.620 In the right direction.

01:35:14.360 In the right direction poll.

01:35:15.820 Right.

01:35:15.900 So that's good.

01:35:16.620 That's a positive.

01:35:17.200 I'm glad to see that we are, you know, maybe catching up to Europe on this one.

01:35:21.820 It's great to see.

01:35:23.260 Well, we want to be more like Europe, right?

01:35:25.160 I mean, geez.

01:35:26.160 In this one particular instance, oddly, we kind of do.

01:35:29.160 They seem to have figured this out before us.

01:35:31.200 Usually, they're far to the left of us, and we're always tracking toward their left-wing positions.

01:35:36.500 It seems like they have actually kind of woken up before us, which is, I think, stunning, but I'm glad to see that, you know, certainly, you know, Trump is not on this bandwagon, and now that he's in office, he can start reversing this nonsense.

01:35:51.960 You know, what's amazing is, you know, we've had so many discussions on this, we've had so, but how many of them have actually been based in science?

01:35:59.280 Most of it is based in, you know, shouting you're a hate monger, or you just want to, you know, kill people, or you just hate transgender, all that crap.

01:36:08.220 Have you ever heard of the Dunning-Kruger effect?

01:36:11.300 Yes, yes, I am.

01:36:13.000 You know what it is?

01:36:14.480 Yeah, you could probably help me with a better definition, but my remembrance of it is, like, people who know very little about a topic tend to be the most confident at the beginning, and then it kind of goes way down in their confidence as they learn more, and only when they become experts that they kind of say, hey, you know, there's a lot of nuance in the way they speak.

01:36:35.880 Correct, correct.

01:36:37.020 And it's, I mean, it carries another part to it, and my grandmother knew this, I mean, I think all of our grandmothers knew this, stupid people just don't know they're stupid.

01:36:48.400 They have no idea that they're stupid.

01:36:49.980 Yeah, okay, that's a much better explanation.

01:36:52.380 And we are either living under the, you know, the Dunning-Kruger effect, or we're living under the Freddy Kruger effect.

01:37:02.240 I don't know which our society is embracing, but stupid people just don't know they're stupid, and they get just a little bit, and I mean, I'm not talking about, oh, I forgot to cancel my free trial, stupid.

01:37:13.580 I mean, but stupid.

01:37:15.620 And, you know, when you're stupid, you feel like a genius.

01:37:21.940 And when you know a lot, you feel like an imposter.

01:37:25.660 Yeah.

01:37:26.220 That's totally, you know what I mean?

01:37:27.560 Right, yeah.

01:37:28.100 Like, I'm sure, do you notice this, Glenn, sometimes when, you know, you're out at a party or something, and you're talking to people, and they probably come to you and bring up topics they think you, you know, talk about on the air, because they know who you are.

01:37:41.800 Or, like, they'll bring up, you know, they'll bring up something about, I don't know, the Great Reset, right?

01:37:46.220 Whatever, yeah.

01:37:46.760 You know, progressivism.

01:37:49.060 And they'll say things, and you're like, oh, yeah, I know, sure.

01:37:54.620 Well, I mean, that's not exactly it, but I know what you're saying, and it's like, because you've studied it for a long time, they probably haven't, they've heard bits and pieces, maybe they've seen a little bit on social media.

01:38:03.540 But a lot of times, what carries with that is certainty, right?

01:38:08.140 Like, they've read a couple things on social media, they're sure they're right, and they bring it to you, and you're like, ah, you know, sure, I know what you're saying, you know?

01:38:17.680 Let me address this on the air when I can tear you apart. 0.98

01:38:20.920 We're here together at a party.

01:38:23.120 Let's not talk about it.

01:38:24.420 No, that is absolutely true.

01:38:26.160 You remember what I said, everybody was making fun of me, Glenn Beck's on his apology tour when I left Fox, and because you do a lot of thinking when you go from one of the most, you know, beloved people, invisible people, to a fat person that, you know, is now hated by most people.

01:38:48.580 You know, you tend to think a lot, and so what I was saying at the time.

01:38:53.620 About nutrition and other things, yeah.

01:38:54.220 And everything.

01:38:55.040 What I was saying at the time was, you know, I was so certain of things, and that doesn't mean that I was wrong.

01:39:02.520 It was just that my approach, I was so certain of things, and the only thing I'm certain of now is that I'm not certain of anything.

01:39:10.460 You know what I mean?

01:39:11.300 Yeah.

01:39:12.400 And that's kind of the mantra of my life now, and it's really hard to do this job and say that, but it is what I believe.

01:39:22.400 The only thing I'm truly certain of is I'm not certain of anything.

01:39:27.180 Right.

01:39:27.660 And that doesn't mean you don't try to get to the truth.

01:39:30.000 It means that you're constantly reexamining what you believe.

01:39:35.100 I think that's where some of the social media world in this era of media has kind of lost the plot, and that you should constantly be pushing yourself, right?

01:39:48.340 Like, when you think you know something, you should constantly be pushing yourself the other direction just to make sure, like, get the best arguments from the other side.

01:39:58.360 You know, there are policies that I agree with, and I want to hear the best policy arguments from the other side to see if my opinion should change.

01:40:06.380 You should be thinking that way, even if, you know, you're not going to necessarily change your viewpoint all the time.

01:40:11.300 You should be thinking about how to best challenge not only to see if you're right, but also to strengthen your argument for what you currently believe.

01:40:18.760 You know, I did an interview with Ro Khanna last week, and it was on the podcast.

01:40:23.940 It was very good.

01:40:24.740 I don't agree with him really on much of anything except fundamental principles of our country and what we were founded on.

01:40:31.340 But, you know, he's a big government guy and everything else, and he's a guy who's probably going to run for president, and that's why I did the interviews, because you should know where he stands, who he is, et cetera, et cetera, because he's probably going to be one of the guys running for president in the Democratic Party.

01:40:47.680 And I want you to be informed on him.

01:40:50.460 So I do the interview, and I read all of these leftist responses on this and saying, look, even Ro Khanna can even get on Glenn Beck's program because he's so reasonable.

01:41:06.500 Well, yeah, that is true.

01:41:09.060 I do like to have reasonable people on, but I really don't have a problem talking to anybody.

01:41:14.860 It's not that they're changing.

01:41:19.040 It's not that Ro Khanna changed me.

01:41:23.520 I'm open to talk to people I disagree with.

01:41:26.200 Sure.

01:41:26.700 But the left generally isn't.

01:41:30.500 You know, I'm open to talking to people.

01:41:32.500 If you can have a conversation, if you enter the conversation with absolute certainty, well, then I can't have a conversation with you because all it's going to end up being is a bash fest.

01:41:43.020 Well, you're just too stupid to understand.

01:41:45.840 Well, who's the stupid one?

01:41:47.400 Honestly.

01:41:48.160 I mean, you know, this is where it gets uncomfortable.

01:41:51.240 Statistically speaking, someone in the room here is the dumbest person.

01:41:56.200 And since it's just you and me, I got some bad news for you.

01:41:59.380 You know, and nobody, nobody, you know, everybody thinks that way.

01:42:06.540 And they don't think, well, maybe, hang on, let me listen because I might learn something from somebody.

01:42:13.420 And, you know, look at the arrogance on the doctors, going back to the original story, which brought this up.

01:42:19.100 But the doctors just started touting things they didn't actually know because the science did not back it up.

01:42:29.980 Not enough science had been done.

01:42:31.700 The ones that weren't arrogant were the ones, honestly, in Sweden and the Netherlands that actually looked at the science.

01:42:42.120 They were doing it.

01:42:42.880 And then they looked at the science and they looked at the studies and they were like, you know what?

01:42:45.840 We got to stop this because this is not right.

01:42:47.680 It's not what we thought it was.

01:42:50.100 But we continue just to double down and double down.

01:42:52.580 And it was without any information.

01:42:55.140 That's why I asked earlier today, what was it we were talking about?

01:42:59.580 Oh, we were talking about the new approach by the State Department, which Marco Rubio is just killing it.

01:43:06.940 And they're starting to put out these, you know, they've got a, you know, sub stack.

01:43:13.580 And I read one of them at the beginning of the podcast today.

01:43:16.780 And it was really, really amazing that it was coming from our State Department.

01:43:21.920 And it should be something that everybody agrees with.

01:43:25.140 And quite honestly, every Democrat I know would agree with it, would have agreed with it.

01:43:31.040 But now that it's coming from the Trump administration, they won't agree with anything.

01:43:34.960 And I said, you know, I know why I've changed.

01:43:37.780 I've changed my mind on a lot of things.

01:43:41.220 And I am a different person than I was 20 years ago.

01:43:44.060 And I think that's good.

01:43:45.780 But I don't think Democrats are the same people either.

01:43:49.200 And what I'd like to know is what new information did you get that has allowed you to abandon the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, all of that?

01:44:04.960 What got you there?

01:44:07.020 What got you from a place that these endless wars don't work to, yeah, we've got to go in and kick some ass in Ukraine and we've got to topple Putin?

01:44:16.620 What changed?

01:44:18.400 Because I'm not there.

01:44:20.480 And I'd like to just say I would have liked to meet you in the same room here because this is the room I always thought you were wrong on.

01:44:27.520 And you were right.

01:44:29.220 But now you've changed.

01:44:31.620 I really want to know what new information came to you that made you go, you know, I'd have been wrong all these years.

01:44:41.480 You know, what new information came your way that's saying drag shows in, you know, first grade is good for children?

01:44:50.480 I want specifics.

01:44:52.000 What new information?

01:44:53.840 Because you would have said anybody who did that should be arrested.

01:44:57.200 That doesn't belong with, you know, first graders.

01:45:00.000 It doesn't belong in the fourth grade.

01:45:01.620 We shouldn't be doing these things, what we're doing to our children.

01:45:05.540 I'm still at that place.

01:45:07.280 I didn't change on that.

01:45:08.360 I'm still there.

01:45:09.000 But you did change, if you're on the other side, as an average Democrat.

01:45:15.020 Please specifically tell me why, what new information.

01:45:22.800 Those are conversations I think America would love to hear.

01:45:25.720 Instead of just calling each other names, just tell me new information.

01:45:29.480 Because maybe I'm wrong.

01:45:31.220 Maybe I'm wrong.

01:45:31.740 I don't think I am, but maybe I am.

01:45:33.600 So give me that new information that you got.

01:45:36.220 And don't make it about Trump, and I won't make it about Biden.

01:45:39.440 How's that?

01:45:40.600 All right.

01:45:41.020 Let me tell you about Lear Capital.

01:45:42.180 When Rome began to fall, it didn't start with the barbarians at the gate. 0.52

01:45:45.900 It started with debt, with excess, with a complacency, with a currency so debased that silver coins were melted down and mixed with base metals until the money wasn't worth the metal it was stamped on.

01:45:59.660 And the people knew it.

01:46:01.720 They watched their savings erode.

01:46:03.540 They watched their markets collapse.

01:46:04.920 They watched their institutions decay.

01:46:06.780 All while the leaders promised that everything was fine.

01:46:10.340 You know, here, watch this.

01:46:11.860 We're going to feed somebody to a lion.

01:46:14.000 It all feels familiar, doesn't it?

01:46:16.760 I mean, look.

01:46:18.140 Our political parties are feeding people to lions every single day.

01:46:21.380 What's the difference?

01:46:22.800 The United States is in trillions of dollars of debt.

01:46:26.000 While our dollar is still strong in name, it is losing purchasing power year after year.

01:46:31.340 And instead of strengthening our foundation, we keep pouring gas on the fire, printing more money, taking on more debt, pretending that the consequences are for other countries or for other people.

01:46:40.240 It won't happen to us in our day.

01:46:42.580 History doesn't play favorites.

01:46:44.220 Math doesn't play favorites.

01:46:46.020 It rewards preparation.

01:46:47.720 It punishes denial.

01:46:48.820 Gold has outlasted empire after empire after empire.

01:46:52.900 When paper currencies fail, as they always do, gold doesn't need to be explained.

01:46:58.060 So call Lear Capital today, 800-957-GOLD.

01:47:19.680 Just get the information today, 800-957-GOLD.

01:47:24.160 10 seconds, station ID.

01:47:25.100 So did you see the Politico writer that came up with a shadow cabinet for everybody to take on the Trump administration?

01:47:48.860 Can we stop talking about shadow cabinets while you're denying the deep state exists?

01:47:53.140 A little consistency.

01:47:57.640 We need a shadow cabinet to fight for democracy.

01:48:01.480 Right.

01:48:02.040 Which is exactly right.

01:48:03.820 We need people who are in the shadows, pulling the strings and thwarting things without actually being seen so we can save our democracy.

01:48:15.400 Right.

01:48:15.940 That's the way it always works, right?

01:48:17.640 I mean, you know what?

01:48:19.080 That makes sense.

01:48:19.740 That goes right in the same book of George W. Bush saying, I had to violate the free market to save the free market.

01:48:28.320 No?

01:48:29.200 No.

01:48:30.360 It doesn't work that way.

01:48:31.760 So anyway, so Politico comes up with, like, the Secretary of Veteran Affairs, they say should be Jon Stewart because he can just, you know, he can take that on.

01:48:46.160 Please.

01:48:47.140 Yeah, I know.

01:48:47.940 Can we stop with that?

01:48:49.940 Yeah.

01:48:50.140 It's just infuriating.

01:48:51.220 I don't even know who Nikki Glaser is as the administrator of the Small Business Administration. 0.93

01:48:56.500 Who's Nikki Glaser? 0.96

01:48:57.300 She's a comedian. 1.00

01:48:58.320 This does not seem like a serious effort.

01:48:59.980 Can we stop putting Canadians in? 1.00

01:49:01.740 The comedian.

01:49:02.720 Bill Nye, the science guy, to be the shadow cabinet for the Environmental Protection Agency.

01:49:08.700 Mark Cuban to be the Secretary of Commerce.

01:49:11.540 Oh, my gosh.

01:49:12.120 Wait, wait, hold on.

01:49:13.320 The Secretary of Commerce, the guy who just sold the Dallas Mavericks for half price and then was told he was going to run the franchise for multiple years, and then they immediately pushed him out and traded Luka Doncic?

01:49:24.360 Do you want that guy running back?

01:49:25.360 That makes sense.

01:49:26.080 Yeah.

01:49:26.520 Perfect.

01:49:27.120 What a path to success.

01:49:28.560 Perfect qualifications.

01:49:29.360 Yeah.

01:49:30.100 I mean, it's crazy.

01:49:31.720 I have a list for the Democrats of, you know, other possible names they could put in his shadow cabinet that make just as much sense.

01:49:40.640 And Homer Simpson is on that list.

01:49:43.040 I think I put him as the Secretary of Labor because who knows labor and unions and, you know, tough jobs more than Homer Simpson.

01:49:52.160 This is Glenn Beck.

01:49:56.520 You ever watch a dog try to hide a limb that's hurting?

01:50:01.940 It'll limp for a second, then it'll snap to attention like, nope, nope, totally fine.

01:50:05.380 Watch me.

01:50:05.800 I'm going to run around in circles.

01:50:07.200 Yeah.

01:50:07.300 Um, you do things like that sometimes pretending my body isn't falling apart, you know, and you have zero, you have zero to say about it.

01:50:15.360 Really zero, zero stars.

01:50:17.080 Uh, I don't recommend it.

01:50:18.560 It's not a good thing when it happens.

01:50:20.740 My wife made me try relief factor. 1.00

01:50:22.900 And I, when I say she made me, she made me, she said, she won't listen to me whine anymore, uh, unless I try everything.

01:50:29.840 And I'm like, relief factor is not going to work.

01:50:31.820 It's all natural.

01:50:32.960 I mean, Dow chemical is not even around, uh, you know, better living through pharmaceuticals, baby.

01:50:39.120 And, uh, she said, no, I don't think that's actually true.

01:50:42.100 Glenn, um, so you should try something all natural.

01:50:45.680 And I did, and I can't tell you the difference it made in my, uh, my life.

01:50:51.780 It totally changed my life.

01:50:54.300 It might change your life.

01:50:55.580 Just try it for three weeks.

01:50:57.020 Get the quick start trial for three weeks and see if your aches and pains and your problems kind of disappear over time.

01:51:03.380 1995, it's relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com, 1-800, the number four, relief.

01:51:11.740 Head over to glenbeck.com, sign up for the free email newsletter.

01:51:15.180 It is going to come into your inbox every day with every story we talk about.

01:51:18.460 So last night on the Wednesday night show, I talked about why the, you know, why this thing with Joe Biden, uh, and who is actually running the white house and the auto pin and everything else, why that matters.

01:51:43.700 Um, and what, what do we actually know?

01:51:46.700 Um, and I had Ed Martin on, I don't know if you know who Ed Martin is, but he's a, he is the U S pardon attorney.

01:51:56.600 Um, and he works through the DOJ.

01:51:59.620 So he's the guy who knows, um, about these pardons, if they're going to be valid, et cetera, et cetera.

01:52:06.200 And, uh, I asked him last night and this has gone really viral.

01:52:10.940 What, what are the potential, uh, laws that were broken and the laws in the coverup, um, about his health and abuse of the auto pen.

01:52:22.020 Listen to his answer.

01:52:22.700 There's many, many laws that I would say apply to this.

01:52:26.120 You know, they can, someone brought up forgery.

01:52:27.960 Forgery is the beginning of a conversation.

01:52:29.940 I think fraud, um, you know, there's all kinds of aspects of fraud that could be done.

01:52:34.300 If somebody is making money, big money off of it.

01:52:36.560 Um, you know, there's, there's many things I, if president Trump used in a truth, social post about treason.

01:52:41.560 And I think I'm, uh, as a member of DOJ, I'm going to tread carefully towards what I would describe as the likely crime.

01:52:48.000 But, but there's a lot, if, if this was an abuse, like people are worried, there's a lot of crimes that were committed.

01:52:54.040 And there will be, if the facts show that it was happening, the DOJ will pursue aggressively justice.

01:53:06.460 The only way I know to do it is being aggressive, Glenn.

01:53:09.380 You probably have seen this now.

01:53:10.620 So yes, I mean, uh, we're going to get to the bottom of the facts.

01:53:13.420 We're going to apply it to the law and we're going to go, uh, uh, like hell against the people that did this to the country.

01:53:18.760 And, uh, you know, this is the biggest scandal I could ever imagine in, in our lives.

01:53:22.500 This, there's never been anything like this at this point.

01:53:24.840 And so I hope it's the less, I hope it's a lesser scandal than it looks like, but it's headed towards one of the most, uh, egregious things we've ever seen.

01:53:32.780 So yes, people will be held accountable and yes, they will be held accountable by prosecutions.

01:53:39.780 Wow.

01:53:40.620 One of the biggest scandal it's headed.

01:53:43.180 It, I hope it's less, but it's headed towards the biggest scandal we've ever had.

01:53:48.440 Holy cow. 0.89

01:53:50.540 Um, and that's from a guy who's very, very reasoned and measured.

01:53:53.600 Um, and he is, you know, he's the guy who does the pardons.

01:53:57.160 And I asked him, you know, are these things even valid?

01:54:00.960 You know, if it gets proven that other people, you know, uh, use the auto pen without the president's knowledge of, of approval or any of these things valid.

01:54:10.720 Uh, listen to what he said, cut five.

01:54:12.180 This is a $64,000 question.

01:54:14.340 But let's just do it as a hypothetical to be a little bit more, uh, a little bit less specific to this.

01:54:20.120 If, uh, if I can, if you and I go and enter a contract and, and it turns out that you were not capable of entering into the contract, right?

01:54:27.940 Depending on how I relied on it, you know, if I went and did something and I was paid for it, you know, I might make the argument that you have to honor that, but in general, that's not a valid contract.

01:54:36.960 So, you know, the validity of these things, whether they're pardons or other, uh, actions is going to come into question.

01:54:43.920 And I think there's some, some details and legal questions that are going to be a little bit harder, but, um, but you can see that it's, it's, um, and, and here's, what's more troubling, uh, to me is if some of these pardons were issued

01:54:56.340 because they were being engineered, you know, for, for example, to, to, to, to, for Fauci or for the, the select committee on January 6th to, to buy someone who's taking advantage of, of Joe Biden in order to cover things up.

01:55:10.160 Well, you know, I can't be the, what the system contemplated.

01:55:14.260 And, and so, uh, I think that's all going to come into question.

01:55:17.320 Yes.

01:55:18.500 Jeez.

01:55:19.800 Uh, now let me play one more clip.

01:55:21.500 This is from David Hogg, David Hogg.

01:55:24.820 I, I don't think I need to even point out, you know, his history on who he is.

01:55:29.700 Listen to what he said.

01:55:31.820 Listen.

01:55:32.380 I mean, I did the fact that the DNC is always going to be like a campaign arm of the president.

01:55:36.680 Ultimately, the bigger issue was like the inner circle that was without Biden.

01:55:41.720 That's it.

01:55:42.440 And I can't stress, I can't stress you enough.

01:55:44.340 Like Jill Biden's chief of staff, like had an enormous amount of power.

01:55:48.420 Jill Biden?

01:55:49.080 Jill Biden's chief of staff.

01:55:50.520 That was like an open secret at the left.

01:55:52.260 Like I, I would avoid him.

01:55:54.080 Like, he was scary.

01:55:55.660 What was his name?

01:55:56.620 Um, Anthony.

01:56:00.100 I've never seen him.

01:56:01.400 Exactly.

01:56:02.640 What do you mean?

01:56:03.320 He's just like a, he's like a shadowy, like wizard of Oz type figure.

01:56:07.120 That's what made him so like, I knew how he looked, but I'm like the general public wouldn't

01:56:10.940 know how this man looked.

01:56:12.380 But he wielded any, like an enormous amount of power.

01:56:16.780 And I can't just see how much power he had in the White House.

01:56:21.740 Uh, that was on a project Veritas, uh, hidden video.

01:56:25.760 I mean, what these guys knew and, uh, how they just all dealt with it and just said, you

01:56:30.920 know, ends justify the means.

01:56:32.900 Can you imagine, uh, Jill Biden was running the White House, her, you know, her chief 0.83

01:56:39.920 of staff.

01:56:40.580 That's who is running all of this.

01:56:42.280 Yeah.

01:56:43.200 Anthony, Anthony Bernal is, is he's by the way, one of the central characters in the

01:56:47.440 Jake Tapper, uh, Alex Thompson book, uh, original sin as well as seen kind of described almost

01:56:53.600 exactly that way, uh, as a guy who everyone was afraid of.

01:56:57.640 And that was, uh, making a lot of the decisions around the White House, one of four or five

01:57:04.060 people, but, uh, he was one of the main ones, which is again, you know, you, you think about

01:57:09.560 we didn't elect Anthony Bernal president of the United States.

01:57:13.600 We, we didn't or Jill Biden or Jill Biden.

01:57:16.320 At least we knew who Jill Biden was, uh, but no, we didn't, we didn't elect them. 0.97

01:57:20.620 We were, we have a constitutional system that says that he's supposed to be making these

01:57:25.280 decisions, uh, Joe Biden, uh, and he was not making them.

01:57:28.740 I think quite clearly at this point, at least it was being, uh, his access to information

01:57:33.860 and to even his own cabinet officials seems to have been, uh, being controlled by the people

01:57:39.400 close to him.

01:57:40.580 And what is the, what's the, what's the book say about, uh, Hunter Biden?

01:57:44.320 Cause I've heard that Hunter Biden was making all of the family decisions at the time.

01:57:48.820 Uh, it's basically talks about how, you know, and it talks about how Joe Biden was, uh, a

01:57:54.960 big part of his decline happened around the time that Hunter was dealing with all these

01:58:00.620 legal issues.

01:58:01.720 Um, you know, they described Joe in the book, I would say as crushed by his losses over the

01:58:07.820 years of, you know, he'd lost two children, obviously previously, and this was, he was worried

01:58:12.440 about losing a third, uh, and for that reason, he was, uh, insanely loyal to Hunter and, and

01:58:21.140 believing that he was actually a good guy.

01:58:23.780 Now, again, that's talking a lot about motivation.

01:58:26.140 I don't know what the reason was, but yeah, that is exactly what it describes.

01:58:30.040 I mean, I think that, I mean, I, I've known that from the get-go.

01:58:33.800 The guy was, the guy was crushed, um, by, you know, the death of his other son.

01:58:39.400 And he was loyal to a fault to this son, um, and was doing more damage, you know, and when

01:58:46.340 you say that he, he really believed that he was a good guy, you got to remember, you're

01:58:50.780 talking about Joe Biden's version of a good guy.

01:58:54.400 Right, right.

01:58:55.580 I mean, it's different than my version.

01:58:57.720 With multiple layers on top of this, the corruption being, um, the one I think you're referring

01:59:02.140 to there, but also the senility and the elements of senility that had stepped, you know, into

01:59:07.680 his life, uh, you know, I don't think he was able to make those decisions anyway.

01:59:12.460 In the book, when do they say that he really kind of checked out?

01:59:17.080 When was his, when was he kind of done?

01:59:20.640 They describe it as sort of a multi-phase process that began in 2015.

01:59:25.640 Um, now you might recognize 2015 as a time he was not president, but was still vice president

01:59:32.680 of the United States.

01:59:35.200 Um, but going back to 2015, they say it started there.

01:59:39.160 It wasn't constant then though, that people would notice he was having, uh, moments, bad

01:59:44.900 moments, um, you know, bad days, but it started picking up in 2018.

01:59:50.780 Uh, and then, uh, again, before he was president, uh, they, some of it was noticed in 2020.

01:59:56.940 They say the real collapse off, you know, uh, what were you saying?

02:00:01.280 You said this earlier, when you, how do you go bankrupt?

02:00:03.540 Well, very slowly.

02:00:04.620 And then all at once, um, right.

02:00:06.800 They, they say kind of the same thing about his mental capacity and that it was fading

02:00:11.940 from 2015, but really fell off a cliff in 2023.

02:00:16.040 Um, now I, obviously we all noticed stuff in 2020, 2021 throughout that period.

02:00:21.660 And they say it was there.

02:00:24.900 They just say it wasn't as consistent.

02:00:26.820 The, it was really noticeable, even to the people close to him, even to the people who

02:00:30.760 were cheering him on and wanting him to succeed.

02:00:33.760 The, it became so overwhelming in the year in 2023 and obviously into 2024.

02:00:40.020 You know, it's really amazing to me.

02:00:41.680 You, you know, that the ends justify the means, um, to these people.

02:00:46.760 Um, if in 2018, they were spotting it and going, he is, he's going downhill because if

02:00:55.600 you, if you really believed in the presidency, if you believed in the constitution and what

02:01:01.100 the president was going to have to do, my God, carrying the nuclear football, just that

02:01:06.620 alone.

02:01:07.120 And if you, if you really, truly understand that and respect that, there's no way you

02:01:13.540 would say, yeah, let's go ahead and just run him anyway. 0.56

02:01:16.760 Because you, you legally and constitutionally cannot stand in for him.

02:01:23.380 And then what do they do?

02:01:24.740 If you're going to do that, say, cause he could win great.

02:01:27.880 Then let's get the strongest vice president we can, because if he starts to really fade,

02:01:34.340 we got to have a, somebody who can really run it.

02:01:37.720 Um, so maybe we use him to get elected, but you know, the first sign of real trouble we're

02:01:43.520 out.

02:01:43.840 And what do they do?

02:01:45.020 They get the weakest person to be the vice president.

02:01:47.860 It shows from the beginning, this was a puppet regime.

02:01:52.020 Yeah.

02:01:52.460 They talk a little, it's incredible to say.

02:01:54.220 They talk a little bit about that pick, um, and go through the moments of how they picked,

02:01:58.240 uh, Kamala Harris a little bit.

02:02:00.260 And they basically said he wanted Whitmer.

02:02:04.160 Um, now again, Whitmer also would have sucked as a vice president.

02:02:06.980 I'm not saying, um, but, uh, that Biden wanted Whitmer.

02:02:11.000 He was more comfortable with Whitmer.

02:02:12.460 The family thought Whitmer would be a better pick partially because they, uh, Jill, because

02:02:18.120 of Jill Biden.

02:02:18.760 Jill saw, um, the actions that Kamala took during the debate and would not forgive her

02:02:25.860 for that when she basically called her husband a racist. 0.98

02:02:29.380 Um, and also interestingly, it wasn't just, Hey, you called my husband a racist.

02:02:33.700 That makes me mad.

02:02:34.680 It was that Jill, I think, correctly diagnosed the idea that only a person with incredible,

02:02:42.340 uh, uh, desire to rise in the ranks would do such a thing, right?

02:02:49.500 Like only someone with all sorts of, uh, uh, uh, uh, of want and need for higher levels

02:02:57.040 of power would do that.

02:02:58.480 So she did not want Kamala according to the book. 1.00

02:03:01.400 Uh, but, uh, and, and Whitmer was the one that even, uh, Biden wanted.

02:03:06.260 However, they, uh, I mean, it came down to skin color.

02:03:09.820 I mean, it really did come down to that where, you know, the, his allies, uh, particularly

02:03:14.560 on, uh, the, the side of the, you know, people like climb, uh, Clyburn, uh, wanted an African 0.98

02:03:20.420 American on the ticket, uh, that was believed to be his strength with, with, with voters in

02:03:25.400 the primary and, and on.

02:03:26.720 Uh, so they kind of just picked her because she, you know, checked those boxes.

02:03:31.820 I mean, it's as, as, as bad of a DEI thing that we always talked about.

02:03:35.980 I mean, litter, quite literally the president of the United States, according to this book

02:03:40.620 did not want Kamala Harris to be vice president and instead picked her anyway, because of these, 1.00

02:03:48.740 you know, uh, intersectional boxes that needed to be checked.

02:03:52.940 And if you said that the press demonized you and said, you're crazy.

02:04:02.320 And now it's all coming out that, yeah, that's absolutely true.

02:04:06.080 I mean, it's real, it's really amazing what they put the country through.

02:04:09.660 It's really the entire saga of this book too, right?

02:04:11.800 Like all these things were things we were all saying, you know, there, there's not like

02:04:16.700 there's tons of information we didn't know that is in the book, but it all supports things

02:04:21.500 we did know we all knew this is all going on.

02:04:25.100 We didn't have the background information.

02:04:27.120 We weren't in the private meetings because even his own cabinet officials weren't in

02:04:31.440 the private meetings.

02:04:32.740 Uh, but you know, it was obvious to people just by the public stuff and the, the behind

02:04:37.780 the scenes stuff, as opposed to what we heard on media, which was, Oh, she's sharp as a tack.

02:04:42.880 You should see him when he's not on camera.

02:04:44.940 Maybe we should film those moments if that's really what's happening.

02:04:47.820 Uh, but in reality that safe stuff was going on and it seemingly was worse behind the scenes

02:04:52.700 than it was in front of the camera.

02:04:54.960 That's incredible.

02:04:56.080 You, you, you wouldn't think that would be possible.

02:04:58.440 Um, all right, let me tell you about our sponsor.

02:05:00.720 It's burn a launcher.

02:05:01.640 Nobody thinks it's going to happen to them.

02:05:03.360 I mean, the stranger approaching too fast in the parking lot, the door that shouldn't be

02:05:07.100 open, you know, the moment that just turns on a dime.

02:05:10.120 And in that second, you have to rise to the occasion.

02:05:13.440 You fall to the level of your preparation.

02:05:16.100 That's where you'll fall.

02:05:17.660 That's why I carry a burn a launcher.

02:05:19.740 Burn a launcher is a non-lethal self-defense device that fires high powered kinetic and

02:05:25.200 pepper filled projectiles designed to incapacitate an attacker without taking a life.

02:05:31.080 And now they've made it even easier to carry with a compact launcher.

02:05:34.480 It's much, much smaller and slimmer, uh, but it's just as powerful.

02:05:38.060 I mean, it fits in a purse, a glove box, even your waistband.

02:05:41.180 I mean, it's not a firearm, but it packs enough punch to give you a fighting chance and peace

02:06:43.380 your firearm in a way that is actually comfortable.

02:07:03.160 far as weapons.

02:07:03.840 Uh, traditional holsters are basically designed for people who seem to hate comfort.

02:07:08.620 They dig into your ribs.

02:07:09.900 They can announce to everyone that you're armed.

02:07:12.000 You don't want that.

02:08:07.020 Well, we have a stunning WNBA update. 0.61

02:08:26.400 You couldn't have possibly seen this coming, but if you remember a week or two ago, uh,

02:08:32.400 Caitlin Clark fouled Angel Reese, uh, and there was a sort of a scuffle that broke out afterward. 0.96

02:08:40.060 Actually, not really a scuffle.

02:08:41.360 Caitlin Clark just walked away and Angel Reese came after her and tried to start a fight, 1.00

02:08:44.840 which is seemingly happens every time they play.

02:08:47.980 Uh, afterward, we heard some very serious accusations that perhaps maybe there were all

02:08:56.480 sorts of racial slurs being yelled at Angel Reese.

02:09:01.040 Gosh, what a shocking development that this could happen, um, and be, uh, highlighted by

02:09:08.580 the media constantly that these accusations had occurred.

02:09:11.380 Uh, of course, uh, they went to a full investigation.

02:09:14.760 The WNBA wanted to get down to make sure they understood what happened. 1.00

02:09:18.620 And now we have the results of this.

02:09:21.280 The WNBA has issued the following statement.

02:09:24.260 We have investigated the report of racist fan behavior in the vicinity of the court during

02:09:29.100 the May 17th Chicago Sky-Indiana Fever game.

02:09:34.020 Based on information gathered to date, including from relevant fans, team, and arena staff, as

02:09:39.220 well as audio and video reviewing of the game, we have not substantiated it.

02:09:45.280 Shocking.

02:09:46.540 The WNBA is committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for everyone and will

02:09:52.360 continue to be vigilant, enforcing our fan code of conduct.

02:09:54.940 Now, it's interesting because everyone made a big deal about this in the media.

02:09:57.900 They found absolutely nothing to support these accusations whatsoever.

02:10:02.640 Do the fans, uh, of the, of the fever, do they get any apology from the media?

02:10:09.380 Is there any mea culpa?

02:10:10.700 Is there any report asking, hey, well, why did you say this happened?

02:10:14.040 If there's no evidence of it happening, is there any follow-up?

02:10:16.960 Do we get a book later on explaining what happened?

02:10:20.740 My guess is a big fat no.

02:10:28.300 This is Glenn Beck.
