The Glenn Beck Program - The REAL Story Behind the San Diego Mosque Shooting ｜ Guests： Ryan Mauro & Sharrell Shaw ｜ 5⧸26⧸26

00:00:00.000 We're living in a time where it's really easy to forget what this country is actually about, how it came to be.

00:00:05.620 And we talk about the founders like they just appeared fully formed out of history.

00:00:08.940 But that's not how it happened.

00:00:11.420 That's why I think young George Washington is so important right now.

00:00:15.460 This is a film that takes you back before he was president, before the revolution was won, before George Washington was George Washington, that symbol.

00:00:24.380 And it shows you the young man he really was.

00:00:26.660 Not perfect, not polished, but somebody who is shaped by failures, hard decisions, and courage.

00:00:32.600 And by a sense that there was something bigger than himself at work.

00:00:35.900 Great leaders are not created in comfort.

00:00:37.980 They're forged when things are hard.

00:00:40.340 When stepping forward costs you something.

00:00:42.280 With the 250th anniversary of America right around the corner, this is a powerful way to market.

00:00:49.020 Take your family, take your kids, your grandkids, and connect them to the story that started all of this.

00:02:21.760 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.

00:02:36.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:41.960 Hello, America.

00:02:43.500 Back in the saddle again with a lot of perspective. 0.57

00:02:47.940 And I want to start with Iran.

00:02:49.360 What happened this weekend was, I don't know, a little confusing. 0.88

00:02:53.800 Friday, we were talking about bombing the snot out of Iran.

00:02:57.640 The president goes full-fledged jihad in his posts on Friday,

00:03:03.480 which, of course, does what I think he wanted it to do, 0.68

00:03:07.760 brings Iran to the table and like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. 0.85

00:03:10.620 Our carriers were repositioning. Bombers were on alert. 0.57

00:03:14.040 I mean, you know, you thought the world was coming to an end.

00:03:17.000 And then all of a sudden, yeah, we're going to we're going to pause for a minute because it looks like we're going to have a peace deal.

00:03:22.980 Now, today we have everybody on their podcast saying there is no peace deal.

00:03:27.820 Or we have people on the Senate floor saying this peace deal is outrageous.

00:03:33.180 Whatever. There is no peace deal.

00:03:36.140 OK, there is no peace. Could I please give you some perspective?

00:03:40.500 because I don't know how you manage the day if you just listen to all these podcasters and

00:03:46.100 everybody on TV and all the politics. I don't know how you get through it. I would imagine

00:03:51.160 you just throw your hands up and go, there's no reason to even listen to any of this crap. 0.97

00:03:55.800 Let me give you some perspective, help you manage your day. We'll do that in 60 seconds. First, 0.97

00:03:59.780 let me tell you about American financing. If you're like a lot of Americans, you sometimes

00:04:03.240 find yourself stuck in this exhausting game of monthly Jenga where every bill you pay feels like

00:04:10.040 might cause something else to collapse. When credit card interest is involved, the Jenga tower

00:04:15.720 just gets higher and has fewer blocks supporting it. That is exactly why American financing created

00:04:20.960 the smart equity loan. It lets you as a qualified homeowner access the home equity to pay off the

00:04:27.320 high interest debt and free up monthly cash flow without having to give up your low existing

00:04:33.300 mortgage rate that is so critical you don't want to get rid of that also usually you'll have you

00:04:40.660 know a rate that'll move around with the market the smart equity loan comes with a fixed rate

00:04:45.180 one predictable monthly payment which means you're not sitting there wondering what surprises are

00:04:49.840 waiting for you three months down the road american financing call them now at american

00:04:53.840 financing.net 800-906-2440 800-906-2440 american financing.net nmls 182334 nmls consumer

00:05:07.980 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

00:05:12.680 Okay, I want you to think of the seal of America here for a second.

00:05:15.960 When you look at the seal of America, you have the eagle.

00:05:19.680 And in one claw is what?

00:05:23.860 It's the olive branch.

00:05:28.020 And in the other claw is the arrows.

00:05:31.060 That's war and peace.

00:05:33.280 And the eagle is clutching both of them, which which one is.

00:05:36.500 That's why the olive branch is always in the right claw as the one that always is offered first.

00:05:41.460 We always offer peace.

00:05:42.560 But we want you to know we'll stick arrows in your head if we have to to get to the peace. 0.94

00:05:47.820 That's what was happening this weekend.

00:05:49.840 OK, there are stories swirling around about how President Trump missed part of his son's wedding this weekend because of the war planning and negotiations.

00:06:00.160 some reports uh treated it seriously others mocked it we don't we don't know the full truth here and

00:06:06.680 that is the key here on this story let me just say it again we don't know the full truth but let me

00:06:13.080 tell you this if the pentagon believed another round of strikes was imminent the president would

00:06:17.980 absolutely stay close to the situation room and the reason the strike may have been called off

00:06:23.320 or delayed is probably pretty darn simple. I think Trump believes that Iran has blinked,

00:06:31.440 not surrendered, but just heard enough and isolated enough, economically squeezed enough,

00:06:37.480 military exposed enough to finally start to talk about things seriously.

00:06:42.760 Now, the podcasts that you're going to listen to today are going to declare victory or betrayal.

00:06:49.120 one of the two it's either absolute victory or this is a betrayal oh can we stop this please

00:06:56.480 my first day back from vacation i'm already exhausted from hearing it

00:07:02.080 nobody outside of a very small small circle actually knows what this deal is going to look

00:07:08.400 like even the people in the circle don't know what the final product is going to look like

00:07:12.240 and anyone telling you that this is a victory or betrayal is lying to you they don't know

00:07:18.360 Now, we can tell you what we appear to know, what it looks like.

00:07:24.380 We know this.

00:07:25.480 The talks involve the Strait of Hormuz, sanctions relief.

00:07:28.880 I don't like that. 1.00

00:07:29.980 Frozen Iranian assets. 1.00

00:07:31.400 Don't like that. 0.93

00:07:32.160 Uranium enrichment inspections, regional militias, broader normalization of the Middle East. 0.79

00:07:37.880 And that one brings me to something really important.

00:07:40.540 This is probably the most important report that is out.

00:07:43.520 President Trump is now demanding something much larger as part of this deal, an expansion of the Abraham Accords across much of the Sunni Arab world.

00:07:54.100 This is a massive deal, very big deal.

00:07:59.800 The Abraham Accords were not about diplomacy. 0.74

00:08:03.600 They were about rewiring the Middle East entirely. 0.99

00:08:07.340 What is the old Middle East? 0.98

00:08:09.460 What was what drove?

00:08:10.620 What was the old Middle East built around the organizing principle? 0.94

00:08:16.680 Hatred of Israel.

00:08:19.540 Trump's vision appears to be something completely different.

00:08:23.620 A regional economic and security block stretching from Israel through all of the Gulf states

00:08:31.100 with countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, possibly even Turkey

00:08:37.640 tied into this new order built around trade and technology and intelligence sharing, energy routes,

00:08:47.220 collective opposition to what? Extremism coming from the Shia world of Iran. 0.99

00:08:56.280 Think about what that means. 1.00

00:08:58.620 That means the entire Middle East will have direct investment in each other,

00:09:03.960 integrated energy infrastructure, shipping security from the Mediterranean to the Gulf,

00:09:11.340 intelligence cooperation against terror groups, new trade corridors that will bypass all the

00:09:17.440 instability, a Middle East that is less dependent on endless American troops and dependent on

00:09:25.440 mutual economic survival. Now for America, if that works, fewer wars, stable oil markets,

00:09:34.560 stronger trade influence against China, and lower long-term military cost in the region.

00:09:40.860 That will matter directly to what's sitting on your kitchen table every night. That'll matter

00:09:47.740 to your wallet and your food and your family. Because when you hear other people talk about

00:09:54.460 Iran, it sounds distant and geopolitical and yada, yada. And every flare up in the

00:10:00.520 Strait of Hormuz shows up where? At your kitchen table or your gas tank. Every time a tanker

00:10:07.220 is threatened, you know, diesel prices, groceries, airline tickets, inflation, all of it.

00:10:14.960 And Donald Trump is saying, we got to stop looking at it like this. Okay. Because these peace talks

00:10:21.580 are not separate from what's happening at home the cost of instability in the middle east

00:10:27.600 always finds its way into your family budget every time so what are we negotiating for i don't know

00:10:36.700 uh i mean there's some clear i think obvious red lines from the the american side the deal

00:10:43.480 dies immediately if Iran refuses meaningful nuclear restrictions or uses negotiations

00:10:51.980 simply to buy time while they're rebuilding their military infrastructure. If Iran keeps

00:10:58.140 enriching uranium at near weapons-grade levels without transparent oversight, there's going to

00:11:03.260 be pressure again for military action, and it's going to be over. Another breaking point would

00:11:07.720 be attacks through the proxies. Hezbollah, if that escalates, if U.S. ships are hit, if militias

00:11:16.000 strike American bases again, if the Strait of Hormuz is threatened, then all of this collapses 0.57

00:11:20.860 overnight again. From Iran's side, I think the red lines are just as clear. The biggest one is the 0.95

00:11:28.580 regime cannot appear to publicly surrender. It can't. It cannot look like it handed over its

00:11:35.680 sovereignty under pressure from America, it can't. And that matters enormously inside the

00:11:42.340 Iranian system because the regime survives on revolutionary legitimacy. And what was the

00:11:47.500 whole revolution about? Killing Israel and killing the United States. Okay. If its own hardliners 0.98

00:11:54.540 believe the government capitulated, then that thing fractures from the inside and becomes very,

00:12:00.180 very dangerous. Which brings me to the Iranian people, because this is the thing that I'm not 1.00

00:12:04.480 hearing anybody talk about. They are the forgotten part of this story, and they're the part of the

00:12:07.980 story that at least touches me the most. When Americans hear Iran, we imagine the regime,

00:12:17.080 the Ayatollahs, the Revolutionary Guard, the chants, the flags, blah, blah, blah. 0.66

00:12:22.060 But millions of Iranians are exhausted by this point. They are exhausted. They're exhausted of

00:12:28.540 their own regime. They're exhausted economically, politically, spiritually. Most of them don't want

00:12:35.580 a war with America, but they also don't trust their own government. They're trapped, some of

00:12:43.500 them in their own house. Some of them have been dragged out in the streets and shot or beheaded.

00:12:48.340 They have sanctions, repression, inflation, corruption, blackouts, fear. I mean, can you

00:12:55.440 imagine life being an iranian right now the iranian people might lose no matter what happens

00:13:02.360 and if the negotiations fail they're going to suffer through war and economic collapse

00:13:07.840 if if the negotiations succeed poorly the regime could survive longer without fundamentally

00:13:14.660 changing that's really bad if the regime fractures internally chaos follows i mean they lose every

00:13:20.260 time. This is why I think anybody who is serious about judging any of this, you should hold back,

00:13:27.260 hold the whole judgment back for right now. I want you to know, I know I get, everybody says,

00:13:33.660 oh, Glenn Beck, he's just, he's on the bandwagon for war. I'm not, I'm not. I wouldn't have picked

00:13:40.120 this war at this time. I wouldn't have done it. I wouldn't have done it. My whole point is we're in

00:13:44.980 it. So now what does it mean? How do we get out the most effective way? Because the most effective

00:13:52.420 thing to do is definitely not just pull out. You give them a win. It's horrible. So what's the

00:14:00.300 least horrible way of ending this? I don't know. But let me just give you perspective on, we don't

00:14:07.640 know if this is Munich. We don't know if this is Camp David. We don't know if this is Obama 2.0,

00:14:13.260 nicks into China or just another pause before we start pounding them again. We don't know. Nobody

00:14:18.880 does. But let me give you a few things you should watch for. Watch the military posture.

00:14:26.460 If American carriers quietly reposition away from a strike range, that's a big signal.

00:14:32.840 If bomber deployments slow down, another big signal. If missile defense systems remain fully

00:14:39.520 surged, that tells you that Washington still expects instability. Watch oil prices. Watch

00:14:47.200 shipping insurance rates in the Straits of Hormuz. Markets will detect the fear before governments

00:14:53.720 admit it publicly, usually. Watch what Hezbollah and the Houthis do. Proxy silence might tell you 1.00

00:15:02.120 more than speeches do. Watch whether Iran allows inspectors or monitoring mechanisms back into the

00:15:08.840 disputed facilities. This is where all of this talk becomes reality. And watch the language.

00:15:17.440 If both sides start to use phrases like framework or confidence building or phased implementation

00:15:25.260 or temporary agreements, that usually means nobody got everything they wanted, but both

00:15:30.800 sides believe they bought time. And unfortunately, I think that's what this is really all about.

00:15:36.640 Okay. I think the, I think if Donald Trump can get the peace accords to go over the entire region, that's a really big deal and may be worth everything we've gone through. I don't know, but everybody's buying time right now.

00:15:54.640 um time that has been bought by threats time that was bought by fear time bought because both sides

00:16:03.440 may have looked over the cliff and realized oh holy cow that's a cliff and we're going to go

00:16:07.520 over it and uh if we do the entire region's on fire i don't know and again that's the point

00:16:14.300 i don't know and neither you know who knows god at this point god knows we just have to do our

00:16:22.360 best to understand what's coming, not to freak out by it, be very well aware of what's over our

00:16:31.060 horizon in a good way and a bad way. Cause I can't tell you if it's going to end well or poorly.

00:16:37.600 It has, I was going to say equal chance ending both ways, probably has a better chance of ending

00:16:43.780 poorly, but I don't know. I mean, remember one thing I learned in 2020 is I'm not going to second

00:16:51.580 guess i i think i think god i know god is in charge i think we don't pay attention enough to

00:16:58.320 that um i know that we have to do what we're supposed to do we're supposed to stand up we're

00:17:05.020 supposed to vote we're supposed to have our voices heard we're supposed to do all the things with our

00:17:08.220 family that we're supposed to do but then we gotta let it go we've only we can only do so much let it

00:17:14.320 go because we all went out and voted in 2020 and we thought the end of the world was happening

00:17:19.140 when that happened when we lost that election in 2020 we thought there's no way this is the end

00:17:24.940 of the republic and what happened look at where we are you know what life would be like i just

00:17:32.680 got back from europe i know what life would be like if if kamala would have won uh holy mother

00:17:39.520 is europe in trouble we would have been there so i'm not going to second guess and tell you that's

00:17:46.600 what I did in 2020. I said, this is the worst thing that could possibly happen. No, as it turned

00:17:50.980 out, it was actually probably one of the best things that could have happened to us. I didn't

00:17:54.520 have that longer view. Nobody does because I'm not God and neither are you, neither are the other

00:17:59.500 people on podcast or on radio or TV. So let's just recognize who we are and then do the best we can.

00:18:06.820 That's the best I can give you on Iran. Now I read something over the weekend that I thought

00:18:11.420 was really, really good. If I have time, I'm going to get to it. Another perspective on what is

00:18:15.340 really happening inside of Iran, but also, uh, there was something that happened last week in

00:18:21.420 San Diego. And I want to talk to you about here in just a second. Stand by first, let me tell you

00:18:25.960 about real estate agents. I trust.com. You know, there probably was a time when buying, you know,

00:18:40.200 i don't know it feels like you need a law degree and a therapist

00:19:49.300 counterterrorism expert um uh and he wrote an op-ed for glenbeck.com you can read right now

00:19:55.500 why the san diego mosque shooting handed ice is exactly what they want uh i was gone for this so

00:20:02.280 i wanted to bring him on we'll bring him on here in just a second let me bring jason in uh jason

00:20:07.180 your thoughts on my analysis of what's happening with iran what have i missed pretty much right on

00:20:14.100 i i was very frustrated as i was catching up with the news on the negotiations because it's

00:20:18.720 even confusing it seems like some u.s senators and congress people about what the details of

00:20:23.840 this negotiation are right now basically my thought process on the negotiations between

00:20:28.700 us and iran is no matter what i hear leak out through the media or even come out in rumors

00:20:33.220 i just immediately switch off now if they're like oh there's a 12 point plan okay just stop it

00:20:38.620 just stop it i'm not really believing any of that at the moment and your analysis on the um the

00:20:46.540 trump's proposal or his truth social post about all the different gulf arab countries coming into

00:20:52.480 the abraham accords glenn i believe that post will go down in history if things progress the

00:20:58.220 way that i hope they go will go down as one of the defining moments in u.s foreign policy

00:21:04.720 it is that huge why why if because what i from what iran has been doing here the president if

00:21:12.380 he's negotiating or pushing in that direction to basically unite the entire middle east all the

00:21:17.420 gulf countries that used to be i mean they obviously were not allies with iran but they would

00:21:23.080 you know quietly let them do certain things like in places like uae other countries where they would

00:21:28.700 allow them to hide money there do other things they would turn you know turn their backs and

00:21:33.200 allow these things would be completely over and then eventually if there is a military let's say

00:21:39.080 the regime does not topple let's say they stay in power eventually uh as they continue to get

00:21:45.600 aggressive the rest of the gulf kingdoms will have no choice but to start defending their own

00:21:50.540 area start pushing back with their own military with that greater coalition aligned with israel

00:21:56.620 so we would not have to be the policemen over there we would not have to be the first responders

00:22:00.920 it would be the countries that are aligned in the abraham accords this is huge glenn and i i i don't

00:22:09.060 think it's i think it's being understated actually in the media right now i think so too i think so

00:22:14.120 too i i think your your analysis is is spot on and they can afford their own defense um and if

00:22:21.660 we can get them to not be you know not before regimes like uh iran uh we we we can withdraw

00:22:31.200 a bit i mean we can't leave a vacuum but we can withdraw and we don't have to be over there and

00:24:59.760 if i have time today i'm going to talk to you about the five families the five families

00:25:06.620 the mob families that are actually what we should all be fighting against um the the system that we

00:25:15.080 have now in the west is so corrupt it's like a mob family and there's five different families i'm

00:25:21.060 gonna i'm gonna break those down for you one of the five families is the media um and uh it does

00:25:27.500 everything it can to silence anybody who's coming against anybody in the families the five families

00:25:33.720 and the five families you know they work together they protect one another but they're not on the

00:25:38.140 same page for everything um but they'll work together and you know one of the five families

00:25:43.460 will take out the other five families if it can it's just it's it's every mob movie you've ever

00:25:47.680 seen so i want to give that to you if i have time i'll give it to you today maybe tomorrow but

00:25:51.200 Um, an example of this happening is the San Diego mosque shooting.

00:25:56.940 Now I was on vacation last week.

00:25:59.660 And so I avoided the news, but I would check the news from time to time.

00:26:03.180 I would check what was happening on X, et cetera, et cetera.

00:26:05.840 And this story happened so fast and was gone so fast.

00:26:09.860 I didn't even know about it.

00:26:12.400 It was the San Diego mosque shooting that happened.

00:26:15.780 So I wanted to bring Ryan Morrow in because I read the article at glennbeck.com.

00:26:20.700 and I'm like, okay, A, I didn't even know that the story happened, and B, this is the best

00:26:25.400 information I think anybody who could give on this particular situation. So Ryan is with us.

00:26:31.380 Take us through what happened last week, and then the analysis of what's really going on, Ryan.

00:26:38.800 Sure. So you had two basically white supremacists, anti-Semitic, anti-Muslim terrorists. I mean, 0.99

00:26:45.260 it fits that definition, shoot up the Islamic Center of San Diego. Three people were killed.

00:26:52.960 And there's been so much news going on that it kind of faded. But what I was disturbed by,

00:26:59.220 even more so than the shooting, was the reaction by some people, particularly on social media,

00:27:04.640 to it. Some saying, oh, I condemn violence, but I kind of get why it happened. They don't get my

00:27:10.780 sympathy and then other people outright justifying it. Um, and that's what prompted me to write the

00:27:15.500 article for you at glenbeck.com. Um, because what I realized from studying the literature of

00:27:21.580 jihadists, especially ISIS, uh, was that these attackers without realizing it committed the

00:27:28.680 jihad they claim that they're stopping. Uh, I mean, they fulfilled the plan. They fulfilled

00:27:33.380 the plan of ISIS. Uh, this is exactly what they want to happen. Uh, they're no different than 0.81

00:27:38.160 the 9-11 hijackers in that regard okay so explain this because you get you you have access to isis

00:27:45.560 magazine who knew they had their own magazine um and most of us don't want to be on that list um

00:27:51.820 but you do because of what you do for a living talk about what you've said in the article for

00:27:57.020 glenbeck.com of what what they are openly saying has to happen sure so what i just said sounds

00:28:04.720 like hyperbole, but it's actually very literal. Um, so there's an English language magazine that

00:28:09.920 ISIS, uh, at least Yusuf put out, and this is going back to like 2014, 2015. And in the seventh

00:28:16.220 issue of it for 12 whole pages, they go on about their strategy called the extinction of the gray

00:28:23.800 zone. And what they're referring to, uh, destroying the gray zone is the Muslim middle ground. They 0.89

00:28:30.640 basically say there's the people who are engaged in jihad they're on our side they're either part

00:28:35.260 of isis or they're at least part of the jihad overall we can work with them um then there are

00:28:40.400 the pro-western the pro-american muslims who they've basically given up on uh so when people

00:28:45.740 say oh there's no such thing as a patriotic muslim well the jihadists disagree because they

00:28:50.580 basically said well we're not even going to try to convince them anymore it's not working

00:28:54.280 and then you have the middle ground um so there's those are the most that they think they just have

00:28:59.220 to kill. And then there's the middle ground where it's Muslims, particularly those living in Europe 0.99

00:29:04.100 and the United States, who like the systems. They're comfortable. They like the people,

00:29:09.260 but they don't fully identify with the West. They may not agree with the foreign policy of the West,

00:29:14.760 certainly don't like Israel. And so that's the gray zone that ISIS calculated. If they could

00:29:20.000 radicalize them, then that was the game plan. Just as much as building the caliphate, the other goal 0.55

00:29:26.800 is extinction of the gray zone by radicalizing those Muslims in the Muslim middle ground 0.95

00:29:31.620 so that they come to their side. And the key to doing that is enraging and terrifying the West so 1.00

00:29:39.500 much that Muslims who were once loyal to the West are in that middle ground, become radicalized 0.81

00:29:46.780 because they have no other choice. Their belief in democracy, the love they felt from Westerners,

00:29:51.920 they realize it's an illusion. They actually hated us the whole time. And then when they

00:29:55.460 questioned everything that they believed about the West being good, even if they don't fully

00:30:00.380 identify with it, then leads them to say, for the sake of my safety and the sake of the rebirth of

00:30:06.160 how I look at everything, you know what? The Islamists were right. And that's the ISIS game 0.99

00:30:11.480 plan. And so shooting up a mosque, that to them is essentially an act of jihad. That's what they

00:30:17.840 want to happen. So how is this mosque the gray zone or the middle zone when I saw reports that 0.99

00:30:26.620 said this mosque is a breeding ground for Islamic radicals? Right. So a lot of these, even the 0.99

00:30:34.360 radical mosques won't preach radicalism 24-7. They address all sorts of issues in life. And

00:30:39.240 then when the political stuff comes in, then that's there. And not everyone that goes to

00:30:44.100 these mosques and i've really only come to understand this from dealing with muslims

00:30:48.120 a lot of them will go to these mosques that are radical because it's a community as a minority

00:30:51.940 it's a very tight community and so the imam might say some crazy things they don't really talk about

00:30:57.140 it like that that's like kind of your crazy uncle and you listen to him on other about other things

00:31:01.240 um and then also you don't know of the other people by the way anybody judging and anybody

00:31:07.680 judging and saying oh see that's you can't exceed have you ever been to a church like that i mean

00:31:13.840 look at look at how many people went to uh jeremiah wright's church that's it and didn't

00:31:19.620 say anything you know this happens in all of our faiths we'll have somebody say some crazy things

00:31:26.100 and we'll just be like ah we'll blow them off so i mean that that makes an awful lot of sense but 0.77

00:31:30.680 anyway go ahead yeah i mean the relationships with people what we will focus on the jihadist

00:31:36.180 element and think that that's the entirety of the relationship but these are people that knew

00:31:40.120 your kids growing up. It's a much deeper and broader relationship. And so that so they may

00:31:44.840 stay, but they're not into the political stuff. Others may not know about it. You don't. So the

00:31:50.040 middle ground can include some people that are even at a radical mosque and don't know it's

00:31:55.280 radical or they don't care. They could be informants. For all you know, the people that

00:32:00.160 you're targeting were the Muslim informants, of which there are many, that would foil the next 0.70

00:32:06.240 terrorist attack. So the middle ground is kind of hard to define geographically. You can't just

00:32:11.280 put a circle around a mosque and say everyone in there is in the gray zone or the good guy zone

00:32:16.280 or the bad guy zone. And ISIS understands it. And so the solution to them is to get governments 0.97

00:32:22.780 and citizens, they call them the enraged crusaders, you know, bloody us so bad, they become enraged

00:32:28.760 crusaders to actively destroy the gray zone themselves by increasing persecution against 0.52

00:32:35.220 muslims in western lands that's an exact quote from the jihadist magazine that is exactly the

00:32:41.760 same strategy that was used on hungary that i've talked about forever for the communists to come

00:32:48.080 over and take over hungary in the 1950s or 1940s when they it was top down bottom up inside out

00:32:56.100 they caused so much chaos that the people who didn't want communism or a big government would

00:33:02.080 cry out for anyone, make it stop. And that's when the tanks rolled in. Um, so it's the same

00:33:08.760 strategy. It says, I'm going to talk about, you know, this intersectionality, uh, that is going

00:33:14.000 on and how we keep dividing ourselves and how that is now spilling into the right. It's not just on

00:33:19.680 the left anymore. I'm going to talk about that here in, uh, in, in just a second, but this all

00:33:24.460 is the same strategy on, and it's now on all sides. So it, I guess maybe it's a little easier

00:33:31.220 to understand what's happening because it's happening to all of us all of us it is happening

00:33:37.160 um so tell me you know the what is the media's incentive for making this go away so fast was it

00:33:45.040 just a rapid news cycle or was there something else bigger that i'm i'm missing i think it was

00:33:51.600 a mixture of i mean they would make more money from the other headlines going on with iran

00:33:55.460 um and then depending on which audience you're going to people will care about it but will they

00:33:59.780 care enough to tune in and want to learn more versus something else? Maybe not so much. It

00:34:05.580 kind of depends on which part of America you're coming from, what that's going to resonate with

00:34:10.180 you, you know, to what degree. But more broadly, I hope Americans hear this and understand

00:34:16.140 that every time you put out a tweet, every interaction you have with a Muslim or talking

00:34:21.260 about Muslims, according to their perspective, that's an ideological battle. You have a choice

00:34:27.560 in that moment. Whether you're going to help the seditionist and jihadist cause by how you treat

00:34:34.500 other people, or you're going to hurt it by making our civil society healthier and more loving and

00:34:42.120 stronger. And that's a choice I hope every American takes very seriously. I understand

00:34:47.060 you really are on the battlefield. That's a little, that's striking to me. I've said for a

00:34:57.040 long time there's not going to be anybody in the stands whether you know it or not you are on the

00:35:03.060 battlefield right now you're on the field and if you think that i can just stand here and not choose

00:35:09.800 a side it's not going to work that way you're already on the battlefield so which side are you

00:35:15.700 on um and and i think most people think that they're still in the bleachers and they're not

00:35:21.520 they're not but every day we act or don't act in a certain way we're making our choice you know i

00:35:29.780 was i was asked to speak at tommy robinson's thing and um and i i spoke and you know they said you

00:35:40.700 know you may not ever be able to come back to the united kingdom again and i thought my first thought

00:35:44.820 just quick thinking was i really like england i want to come back this isn't my fight and

00:35:49.960 immediately what washed over me was this is absolutely your fight if you don't fight this

00:35:55.560 now it's going to be left to your children and it's going to be a lot harder to fight

00:36:01.120 when when you know we let a few more years go by it's it's it's going to have to be guns

00:36:08.680 you know in 10 years it's going to be an actual hot war if we don't stand up and do the right

00:36:15.060 thing right now and i appreciate ryan the the message here that the right thing is not to pick

00:36:20.980 up guns um because that's exactly what they want you to do and it's no different than what we've

00:36:26.400 been saying about the left the whole time they want you to strike just think of the emperor

00:36:31.240 in star wars yes pick it up strike me down you know it's it's that scene that's what they all

00:36:39.540 want it is yeah yeah that's absolutely true they all say this uh i mean they'll say this in their

00:36:46.520 plans and their statements um but there aren't many people aggregating it and putting all together

00:36:50.820 so everyone sees it i personally define the enemy as the global seditionist movement at this point

00:36:55.580 um because i think everything is being recalibrated and realigned uh to where just like you said

00:37:01.280 there's elements on i call the seditionist left and the seditionist right and then the islamist

00:37:06.080 that are really just so common now. I don't even call it a horseshoe theory anymore. I call it the

00:37:12.340 oval theory. It's not that they're close. It's that they're now basically the same thing. And

00:37:18.560 it's all of them versus all of us with all of our disagreements. And we think it's between your

00:37:25.420 friendly liberal and your friendly conservative battling it out. It isn't. It's between those

00:37:30.420 that want to destroy civil society and the way that these guys describe and those that want to

00:37:35.740 save it and work together to make it better even if you disagree the whole time and what's

00:37:41.020 interesting is everyone is saying the other side is trying to destroy it yeah you know being in

00:37:46.620 being in england with keir starmer talking about how you know all these people like me going they

00:37:52.140 just want to destroy our society no no i don't want to destroy your society i want to help build

00:37:56.820 your society i'm i mean i like i'd like you to restore your society what they're doing is

00:38:02.460 destroying the society they all of these movements are one way or another um taking out the pillars

00:38:10.920 of western civilization and they are they're they're just kicking those pillars out from

00:38:17.720 underneath western civilization if you are around somebody who is talking about yeah well you know

00:38:23.260 what has to happen we have to destroy this or destroy this we have to destroy this um or we

00:38:28.200 have to forget about our principles because we have to do this first you're you're you're a pillar

00:38:33.880 kicker um you're you're on the wrong side you're absolutely on the wrong side and and hopefully

00:38:39.840 ryan i think you'll enjoy my monologue coming up here in a minute hopefully i'll make that a little

00:38:44.120 clearer on what's happening on our own side here in just a few minutes ryan thank you so much uh

00:38:48.760 from the morrow institute he's the president of encounter terrorism expert um why the san diego

00:38:53.820 mosque shooting handed ISIS exactly what they want. You can find that at glennbeck.com. You

00:38:59.360 can also support Ryan at ryanmorrow.com. All right, let me tell you about the International

00:39:04.260 Fellowship of Christians and Jews. It's really easy. I mean, it's not comfortable, but it's easy

00:39:09.340 to watch suffering from a distance. You see a headline, you scroll past the video, and you

00:39:13.900 forget it. You hear about an attack somewhere across the world before you can even really

00:39:19.620 process it, the next story has already pushed it out of your mind. That's the reality of today's

00:39:24.320 world. But people who are living through it, it doesn't disappear when the news cycle moves on.

00:39:28.460 Then they feel absolutely alone. For Jewish families in Israel and all around the world,

00:39:33.040 the fear is real. The uncertainty is real. There are people who have gone through this before,

00:39:39.920 never thought they would see it again, this kind of hatred that is rising again in their lifetimes.

00:39:44.860 It's deeply personal. This is why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews

00:39:49.120 is doing some work that is absolutely vital now,

00:39:53.200 and they're inviting people like you, like me,

00:39:55.820 to send a personal prayer or message of encouragement

00:39:58.360 that will be delivered directly to somebody

00:40:00.600 who needs hope right now.

00:40:02.600 A simple prayer, a few heartfelt words,

00:40:04.720 can lift the spirit of somebody facing fear

00:40:06.640 and uncertainty and isolation.

00:40:08.460 It's more than support.

00:40:09.660 It's standing with Israel and the Jewish people

00:40:11.900 when they need it most.

00:40:14.140 Go to prayforifcj.org.

00:40:17.740 Prayforifcj.org.

00:40:18.660 Submit your prayer today. PrayIFCJ.org.

00:40:25.040 Most of us just want to work hard, raise a family, and live in peace.

00:40:29.620 That's not political. That's human.

00:40:33.000 Glenn Beck will be right back.

00:40:34.580 i used to think that a mattress was just furniture basically until i got my ghost bed

00:40:50.200 ah i love this thing ghost bed doesn't just build mattresses like furniture they build

00:40:54.620 engineered sleep systems and i will tell you working around this place with someone like

00:41:00.060 Glenn Beck for 28 years, you need your sleep. That's confirmed. Their beds are serious health

00:41:06.380 equipment. These are beds that are designed for relief and recovery, not just looks, not just

00:41:10.920 fluff. Your body should be healing you while you sleep, not just fighting you for whether you're

00:41:15.980 going to be comfortable or not. I noticed the difference right away. When you wake up, you're

00:41:19.920 not stiff. You're not tossing and turning all night. You're not sleeping hot. The temperature

00:41:24.220 control here is awesome. Even reaching for a pain reliever before bed, hoping that night will be

00:41:29.940 different. Hopefully you're not doing that because that's not aging. That very well could be your

00:41:33.960 mattress talking. And here's another thing about Ghostbed that I think you're going to like.

00:41:37.660 101 nights to try it at home, not two, not seven nights, 101 nights to try it at home. If you don't

00:41:44.600 feel the difference by then, maybe you're not going to, but you can send it back risk-free.

00:41:48.720 I don't think that's going to happen though. Honestly, Ghostbed is currently having the

00:45:05.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:45:09.160 Glenn Beck is on.

00:45:11.760 Hello, America.

00:45:14.660 Back in the saddle, and I have to tell you, I missed you a great deal.

00:45:17.700 Thank you so much for tuning in today and listening to what I might have to say

00:45:22.020 to bring some perspective to your world.

00:45:23.880 I think I have some pretty important things that will help you make sense

00:45:29.220 of the world that we're living in, especially with all the podcasters saying this, uh, this

00:45:33.460 Iran deal, which there is no Iran deal, just so you know, this Iran deal is absolutely the worst

00:45:37.940 thing ever, or it's the best thing ever, whatever. Um, you know, they're in the Senate, the GOP is

00:45:43.700 now treating Donald Trump like he's a lame duck. That's really frightening. Um, but, uh, the GOP 0.95

00:45:49.860 is arguing over his anti-weaponization, uh, bill, you know, you don't like it guys, stop arguing.

00:45:55.380 Why don't you come up with something?

00:45:58.000 There's an idea.

00:45:59.300 Why don't you come up with something?

00:46:01.980 The Republicans and the Democrats are both telling you the other side is completely falling apart.

00:46:10.060 Today is election day in Texas.

00:46:13.560 Really important that every Republican gets out and votes today.

00:46:17.900 Make time if you live in Texas.

00:46:19.960 Go out and vote.

00:46:21.560 It's really important that you do that today.

00:46:25.380 but we're tearing each other apart. And I want to explain why this is happening in a way that I

00:46:31.560 think is the most universally understandable. You know, people have been saying, what is

00:46:37.440 happening to the right? Why are this, why is this person, this podcaster doing this,

00:46:41.380 or this podcaster doing that? Um, I can explain it in a way that I've not been able to explain

00:46:47.240 before. Um, you know, vacation gives you time to think. Um, and so let me explain this because

00:46:53.960 it's really important that we all understand it. So we don't fall into the trap, which we are in

00:47:00.140 the trap right now. We got to get out of this trap. I'll explain that here in just 60 seconds.

00:47:04.960 First, let me tell you about chapter turning 65 is a weird experience. Or so they tell me

00:47:10.440 you're thinking about retirement, grandkids, whether, you know, your knees that make that

00:47:14.880 sound every time you get up, you know, maybe you're trying to figure out exactly what you

00:47:18.340 want your next part of your life to look like. Maybe you're excited about having more freedom

00:47:22.060 and right in the middle of that somebody hands you medicare paperwork and suddenly you're trying to

00:47:26.740 understand part a part b part c d advantage plan supplement networks enrollment windows

00:47:32.720 what the hell is all of this am i missing some deadline here it's going to cost me money for

00:47:38.940 the rest of my natural life yeah look it has to be done and this stuff matters but it doesn't 0.55

00:47:43.660 mean it has to be miserable that's why i like chapter chapter says make this next phase of your

00:47:48.600 life, the best chapter of your life, and they will help you compare plans from all of the insurance

00:47:53.520 companies so you can find coverage that actually fits your doctors, your prescriptions, your budget,

00:47:59.120 and they do it with real human advisors who can walk you through the process without making you

00:48:03.680 feel like you're trying to decode some ancient legal document and hieroglyphs. Give them a call.

00:48:08.240 The call is free. Just dial pound 250. Say the keyword chapter. Pound 250. Keyword chapter.

00:48:18.600 so there's an old trick that revolutionaries have always understood.

00:48:23.160 And because most of us are not revolutionaries,

00:48:26.360 um,

00:48:28.040 we don't even understand it.

00:48:30.120 And so we see things and,

00:48:32.620 uh,

00:48:32.980 we're like,

00:48:33.440 wow,

00:48:33.620 how does this mean?

00:48:34.920 How are we getting here?

00:48:35.880 What is happening?

00:48:37.080 How much of your life do you spend looking at the news and everything else,

00:48:41.140 looking at your friends or your family and saying,

00:48:42.600 how is this happening?

00:48:43.460 What the hell is going on?

00:48:45.880 Why is this changing?

00:48:47.380 Okay.

00:48:48.600 First thing that a revolutionary understands that you may not is you don't start by getting

00:48:53.140 everybody to agree on everything.

00:48:54.560 You start by convincing completely different people that they share the same enemy.

00:49:01.000 That is the key to a revolution. 0.87

00:49:04.520 This weekend, Bernie Sanders was up with Nazi boy up in Maine talking about revolution. 0.93

00:49:11.740 And no, you don't want a revolution. 0.93

00:49:13.920 You don't understand what that even means.

00:49:16.580 But once you understand this one principle that you've got to get a bunch of people who don't believe the same thing onto the same page, everything will make a lot of sense.

00:49:26.060 Right now, people are looking around and asking, how are these people on the same side?

00:49:31.680 How is a guy who's clearly a Nazi on the same side with Bernie Sanders, who's not a Nazi? 0.97

00:49:37.780 What the hell? 0.54

00:49:39.060 What's happening? 1.00

00:49:39.640 How is this billionaire suddenly in bed with the Christian nationalist?

00:49:50.960 That's a transhumanist billionaire with a Christian nationalist?

00:49:55.100 What?

00:49:55.540 How does the populist podcaster end up with the worldview of a Marxist academic?

00:50:01.100 How does a Muslim activist, an atheist, a conspiracy theorist, and a Silicon Valley futurist and nationalist all end up pulling in the same direction?

00:50:13.700 That doesn't make any sense. 0.85

00:50:17.600 Here's the answer.

00:50:19.640 Revolutions don't require agreement.

00:50:21.680 They require alignment.

00:50:26.040 Let me give you some history so you know this is true.

00:50:29.040 Go back to the French Revolution.

00:50:30.520 The people who helped destroy the monarchy were not all the same.

00:50:35.160 They weren't even close.

00:50:36.800 Some wanted liberty.

00:50:38.660 Some wanted American liberty.

00:50:40.340 Some wanted revenge.

00:50:41.400 Some wanted power.

00:50:42.380 Some wanted a secular utopia.

00:50:44.800 Some were just starving.

00:50:46.800 Some were intellectual.

00:50:47.960 Some were old.

00:50:48.780 Some were young.

00:50:50.080 Some were just playing with ideas in salons that they barely understood.

00:50:55.080 And for a brief moment, all of them marched together.

00:50:59.000 Yeah.

00:51:00.520 until they toppled the monarchy and then revolutions do the same thing every time they 0.98

00:51:05.880 start eating their own children that's what they do ask the marxists that marched with the iranian 0.88

00:51:12.440 clerics in 1979 in iran well you can't because you know they found common ground then destroyed 0.90

00:51:19.940 the regime and then the islamists arrested tortured and killed tens of thousands of their 0.57

00:51:25.300 so-called allies. The Bolsheviks did exactly the same thing. Lenin united the factory workers and 0.91

00:51:30.800 the intellectuals and the radicals and the anti-war activists and the peasants and the

00:51:34.380 criminals and the idealists, people who fundamentally disagreed on all kinds of stuff,

00:51:39.160 but they all could agree that this regime is bad. In the revolutionary space, disagreement

00:51:48.340 is postponed. The only thing that matters is destroy the existing order. That's the important

00:51:56.860 part that everybody misses. This is why I say you cannot be on the side of chaos. You have to talk

00:52:02.460 about what we are trying to build, not what needs to be destroyed. Don't be against things before

00:52:09.980 things. Because the issue with revolutionaries is never the issue. The issue is the doorway.

00:52:18.860 Race, gender, class, climate, nationalism, immigration, technology, religion, corporate

00:52:25.860 corruption, free speech, Israel, the West, the family, masculinity, capitalism, whatever it is.

00:52:32.560 These are not final destinations. They're just the recruitment vehicles, and they'll only use

00:52:38.520 a few of those on you and not talk about the others, but they'll get you so wrapped up in

00:52:44.020 your little issue that you'll say, yeah, it needs to be destroyed. The emotional ignition points.

00:52:52.700 That's what funnels people to a much larger project. And that project is destabilization.

00:52:59.600 And this is where intersectionality enters the story. Most Americans heard that word years ago,

00:53:06.260 intersectionality i remember hearing it the first time all of a sudden it became popular and like

00:53:09.960 what the hell does that word even mean i had to look it up what is this well it's another college

00:53:14.940 theory nobody outside the coffee campus the campus coffee shop cares anything about that

00:53:19.980 big mistake big mistake because intersectionality evolved and at its core it says this all systems

00:53:30.200 are connected all grievances are connected all forms of oppression are connected that's how you

00:53:39.000 can get somebody who is for gay rights trans rights marching with the palestinians the 0.98

00:53:46.640 palestinians will kill you over in gaza they'll kill you but they're both oppressed so everything 0.92

00:53:54.880 is connected and everything when it's connected and then every every angry group becomes one 0.57

00:54:02.260 coalition that's the genius of it under the old marxism the revolutionary class was the worker

00:54:10.820 okay but the modern revolutionary thinking realized something they they realized through

00:54:16.240 in the 1950s wait a minute wait a minute well western societies when they're wealthy

00:54:21.200 the workers don't want revolution. They want stability. They want their family. They want

00:54:26.180 paychecks. They want air conditioning. They want football on Sunday. So they're never going to go 0.99

00:54:31.280 for a revolution. So they had to change the framework. Instead of the economic class,

00:54:38.640 identity became the organizing principle. That's why we suddenly have to hate one another.

00:54:45.300 We have to hate one another because of race, or we're different sexually, or gender, or religion, or culture, or colonial history, or victimhood, or alienation, even loneliness itself.

00:54:59.860 Every single fracture in society becomes politically useful.

00:55:04.660 Let me ask you this.

00:55:05.880 Are we getting less fractured or more fractured?

00:55:09.520 Do you feel more part of the whole or less part of the whole?

00:55:19.600 My guess is you can't even see the whole anymore.

00:55:26.060 The framework isn't confined just to the political left.

00:55:30.440 Eventually, every movement learns the same tactics.

00:55:34.880 That's why you now see the strange alliances that are forming on the right.

00:55:39.520 You see, people who disagree on theology, on morality, disagree on economics, nationalism,

00:55:46.280 they disagree on technology, but they all increasingly are agreeing on one thing.

00:55:52.040 This current system is bad and needs to be burned down.

00:55:56.500 That's the binding agent, the shared hostility.

00:56:00.660 That's the important thing.

00:56:01.980 You're hostile towards the system. 0.99

00:56:05.420 It's a system run by pedophiles. 0.91

00:56:08.040 wait a minute is it is it i mean i know we have a problem but is it run by pedophile where did

00:56:17.280 that come from when did we all start believing that and how can you say you have a problem

00:56:22.560 with a society that is is is bolstering pedophiles and yet you don't seem to care 0.80

00:56:30.460 about what the muslim community the islamist community is doing to our own children if 1.00

00:56:37.800 you're over in england it doesn't make any sense of course not of course not it's not meant to 0.99

00:56:44.440 doesn't need to once the shared hostility becomes the foundation contradictions stop mattering

00:56:52.680 that's how you end up with national traditionalists standing next to trans you know transhumanist

00:56:58.260 billionaires one side dreams of returning to some myth myth mystic path past and the other dreams

00:57:06.180 of escaping humanity entirely through technology.

00:57:09.840 Wait a minute, that doesn't work. 1.00

00:57:14.120 LGBTQ2+, marching next to the Islamist. 1.00

00:57:17.400 Those are irreconcilable differences. 1.00

00:57:23.340 Why do they coexist?

00:57:25.320 How can they do that?

00:57:27.020 Because both sides believe the existing order is illegitimate.

00:57:31.160 That is the chemistry of a revolution.

00:57:34.460 And you'll see it online every day now. Entire ecosystems forming around outrage and collapse and betrayal and apocalypse and civilizational doom. Notice everybody is interviewing everybody. Everybody is validating everybody. Everybody is amplifying the same emotional frequency.

00:57:55.780 this is where the theology the ideology and the moral boundaries all begin to blur

00:58:03.380 you must keep them sharp

00:58:06.040 because revolution is becoming the center of gravity if that happens we're done

00:58:14.020 and the bad thing is technology accelerates all of this what makes social media so dangerous

00:58:21.860 is it doesn't reward wisdom.

00:58:24.160 It rewards emotional escalation.

00:58:26.720 The algorithm doesn't ask,

00:58:28.780 is this coherent?

00:58:30.660 It only asks,

00:58:32.080 does this create engagement?

00:58:33.760 So the loudest voices rise.

00:58:36.400 The most extreme coalitions form fastest.

00:58:39.800 And slowly people stop asking

00:58:41.440 the most important question,

00:58:43.140 wait, what is it we want to build

00:58:45.160 after the fire?

00:58:46.440 After we build the bonfire,

00:58:48.600 what are we building?

00:58:49.580 that's the most important question destroying things are it's super easy to destroy history

00:58:57.860 is filled with men who know how to tear civilizations apart the rare people are the

00:59:03.060 ones who know how to preserve liberty while repairing broken things that's much harder

00:59:09.060 and that must be our mission it has to be or we lose

00:59:14.340 it's it's hard because real liberty requires tension it requires us to have to coexist with

00:59:23.500 each other when we don't agree but recognize that it requires living beside people you disagree with

00:59:29.020 it requires accepting imperfect outcomes revolutionaries hate that revolution revolutions

00:59:35.780 promise purity one final cleansing that's all we need a final cleansing one final battle one final

00:59:42.080 realignment where all contradictions are going to disappear. They never disappear. They won't

00:59:47.420 even disappear when Christ returns. That's why almost every revolution eventually becomes

00:59:57.780 authoritarian. It has to. French Revolution leads to terror. Russian Revolution, gulags.

01:00:04.320 Chinese Revolution, mass death. Every revolution begins by promising liberation and ends by 0.79

01:00:12.020 demanding conformity. Always. And now we stand in the moment where technology gives revolutionary

01:00:20.460 moments power that no revolution in history has ever possessed before. Artificial intelligence,

01:00:28.140 behavioral algorithms, digital currencies, biometric surveillance, synthetic reality,

01:00:33.800 information manipulation on a planetary scale, and it's about to get much, much worse.

01:00:39.540 A revolution fused with technological control, it does not create freedom.

01:00:46.160 That creates management.

01:00:49.020 A world where dissent can be predicted before it even emerges.

01:00:54.040 A world where human identity itself becomes programmable.

01:00:59.120 And the truly dangerous part?

01:01:02.760 People are going to walk right into it because they were first taught to hate the world they inherited.

01:01:10.480 Hate it.

01:01:12.320 That's the story underneath all of this.

01:01:14.600 Not left versus right, not Democrat versus Republican,

01:01:17.780 but whether human beings can still remember how to build a civilization

01:01:22.680 without first burning everything to the ground.

01:01:27.820 That's our mission.

01:01:29.100 That's our goal.

01:01:30.060 And that is the truth.

01:01:32.860 More in a minute.

01:03:41.000 i don't know how to say this let me just shoot straight with you i've seen this coming for 25

01:03:53.460 or 30 years i i've seen this over the horizon i've begged people to wake up and they are just

01:04:01.320 beginning to maybe wake up a little bit but not the average person and the average person thinks

01:04:07.160 that you know uh ai is just a chat gpt toy and it's not um and i've been talking about i said

01:04:16.380 years ago that we would be at artificial general intelligence and i'll explain that in a minute

01:04:21.820 uh,

01:04:22.480 we'll be there by 2030.

01:04:23.800 Mark Andreessen just said,

01:04:25.340 we're already there.

01:04:26.740 It just,

01:04:27.640 it just happened in the last few months,

01:04:29.560 months.

01:04:30.380 Elon Musk has said this,

01:04:31.720 uh,

01:04:32.240 as well,

01:04:32.940 whether we are or not,

01:04:34.540 we are close.

01:04:35.320 We're already in what's called the singularity.

01:04:37.300 And the thing you have to understand the singularity,

01:04:39.360 that's like a black hole.

01:04:41.880 Singularity means you are now at the point on the horizon where you cannot

01:04:46.140 escape it.

01:04:47.120 Okay.

01:04:47.920 It just will pull you in and your destiny is now inside the

01:04:51.800 black hole your destiny now is with ai and the world changed and not someday not a long time ago

01:05:01.000 yesterday the world changed and most people haven't even noticed it yet and when i when

01:05:07.840 you're sitting in a world where everybody is talking about revolutions you know the weirdest

01:05:13.160 thing is revolutions when they finally arrive most people don't even notice it they don't even

01:05:20.140 notice it. And I want to pick it up from there, because when we're talking about what I just said

01:05:24.440 about revolutions, AI is going to play a very important role in this. And so you need to know

01:05:31.060 what it is, how it's going to affect your life. And I mean, right now, right now, you need to

01:07:04.520 Coming up, Glenn sounds the alarm on

01:07:06.340 Joe Rogan's interview with the tech titan and how the

01:07:08.320 world changed forever. While you weren't looking,

01:07:10.380 the monologue you can't afford to miss next.

01:07:12.400 So there was an interesting podcast out from Joe Rogan and Mark Andreessen, and underneath all the tech jargon, really important stuff that you need to understand.

01:07:40.520 and let me start let me start here um how many people do you know that when our political system

01:07:47.360 is gone our freedoms are lost or the dollar isn't what it was and you know joblessness and whatever

01:07:53.620 and they will look and go when did all this happen when did this happen

01:07:58.020 right now you know when you're not paying attention that's when all of this stuff is happening

01:08:03.380 um you know and that's the way revolutions usually work telephone didn't really feel

01:08:08.900 world changing at first the internet was the internet like world changing people would say

01:08:13.960 that and they'd be like oh it's not gonna we're still gonna use file cabinets television seemed

01:08:18.620 harmless okay even electricity rolled in towns quietly at the very beginning and then all of a

01:08:24.320 sudden it was there one day it's not the next day it seems like the old world is gone okay 0.61

01:08:29.200 that's where we are at with ai except it's coming at the speed of light and because of that there

01:08:36.800 will be almost no chance to adapt or to stop and think, wait a minute, what is it we're losing and

01:08:44.020 what is it we're gaining here? Mark Andreessen, one of the smartest guys I know, says the line

01:08:50.800 has already been crossed. And the thing that people dismissed and said would never happen,

01:08:56.040 I've been saying for years, that by 2030, AGI will be here. Mark Andreessen said,

01:09:03.900 it's here now. What is AGI? That is artificial general intelligence. And this means that

01:09:10.720 machines are no longer just clever little search engines or chatbots that help write

01:09:16.200 emails for you or the little clippy comes out. He believes that AI is now AGI, which means

01:09:25.540 it is operating at beyond expert human capability in all or most areas of knowledge.

01:09:34.980 Think about what this means here.

01:09:38.220 And you really have to watch the interview if you really want to understand it.

01:09:42.080 But for most of human history, if you wanted elite knowledge, you had to access the elite people.

01:09:51.020 you had to have access to a great doctor or a brilliant lawyer or an engineer or a scientist

01:09:58.580 or a historian or a wall street analyst or a world-class tutor you had to have somebody who

01:10:04.720 had gone to the right school been around the right people learned from the right people the right

01:10:10.120 stuff and then if you could gain access to it okay now imagine if you had all of those people

01:10:16.180 the best of the best, sitting in your pocket 24 hours a day, willing to work for you nearly free.

01:10:24.640 That's the shift. And it's going to feel like you've been hit in the head with a shovel soon,

01:10:32.560 especially if you're not paying attention. This is not an invention that is going to replace one job.

01:10:38.220 This is a tool that touches every single field at once.

01:10:44.460 Medicine, law, education, programming, finance, therapy, research, media, art, science, everything.

01:10:54.040 Andreessen talks about how doctors are secretly using AI in exam rooms.

01:11:00.400 What does that mean?

01:11:01.700 You go in, and while they're listening to you, it's either listening to you, and they can check the screen, or they'll type it in, and it will say, these are the things you need to look for.

01:11:13.900 When doctors are using this in examination rooms, you need to pay attention because it reveals something really important that always comes first in history, and that's this.

01:11:25.020 the experts themselves already know. While we're sitting here using it as a toy and debating whether

01:11:32.360 AI is useful, the professionals, the ones who have those deep credentials, they've already

01:11:38.220 quietly moved on to depending on it. That always happens first behind the curtain.

01:11:45.480 Factories automate before workers hear about it. Banks digitize before the tellers disappear.

01:11:52.280 retailers optimize before the storefronts close the future arrives inside the institution first

01:12:00.920 this is not about replacing human beings it's not it's about amplification

01:12:10.660 this is the way i've asked my staff to look at this and i want everybody on my staff i haven't

01:12:18.040 had a staff meeting yet until after that but i want everybody on my staff to listen to mark

01:12:22.640 recent in this interview one ordinary person with ai can suddenly perform at a level that used to

01:12:30.200 require an entire staff a year ago i said to my staff i'm not looking to fire people i'm looking

01:12:36.760 to hire people people who understand what is on the horizon because i've always had a staff

01:12:44.540 now my staff can have a staff you just need to know how to ask the right questions and you're

01:12:51.640 going to be able to accomplish a hundred times what you could accomplish before this is this

01:12:57.800 is one programmer with 20 ai coding agents one researcher with instant access to every paper

01:13:05.240 ever written and a way to go through it one filmmaker one editor that can do the editing

01:13:13.740 and the music, and the scripting, and the voice generation,

01:13:16.420 and the graphics, and the translation,

01:13:18.080 all of it handled instantly by a staff of AI agents.

01:13:23.340 The leverage, this is all about leverage.

01:13:25.640 If you're a business person, that's what you have to understand.

01:13:32.040 This is all about leverage.

01:13:34.600 This is why salaries are exploding in Silicon Valley

01:13:37.620 while people are being left out.

01:13:39.780 They're being fired, okay?

01:13:41.160 Because the ones who get it, they're going to be the one.

01:13:45.680 These programmers are not typing faster, but a single human being now that can direct the output of what amounts to a digital workforce, that one person that knows what they're doing, the right questions to ask, the right way to put these agents together, they're going to rule the world.

01:14:05.580 This changes the economics of absolutely everything.

01:14:11.920 Bill Gates once said, you know, I couldn't create Microsoft now in today's world.

01:14:16.180 He couldn't.

01:14:17.060 He couldn't.

01:14:17.960 But now with AI, if you know how to prompt, a small company can compete against giant

01:14:25.080 corporations.

01:14:25.880 A teenager can launch a product that used to have millions in capital behind it.

01:14:31.200 You can do it now. 0.99

01:14:32.320 A single mom can get tutoring, legal explanations, business advice, health analysis. 1.00

01:14:39.780 You don't have to pay specialists hundreds of dollars of hours, hundreds of dollars of an hour to be able to figure this out.

01:14:46.600 It's free.

01:14:48.720 The upside of this is staggering.

01:14:52.560 But let me look at the other side that matters just as much.

01:14:57.580 The bottleneck is no longer information.

01:15:01.720 This is so critical.

01:15:04.580 The bottleneck used to be, I don't have access to the information.

01:15:09.000 I need to talk to an expert.

01:15:10.480 I need to find the information.

01:15:11.700 You can find it.

01:15:13.020 Everyone.

01:15:13.440 So the bottleneck is not access to information.

01:15:18.120 The bottleneck is judgment.

01:15:22.400 And Dreesen said the skill that everybody has to work on now is knowing what to ask.

01:15:28.700 Now think of this.

01:15:29.580 We're living in a time where everyone's telling you not to ask questions.

01:15:33.640 and the most important skill that you can develop now is how to ask questions what questions to ask

01:15:43.240 what are the most important questions and you're not going to learn that in school that is telling

01:15:47.940 you not to answer or not to ask any questions you have to learn how to ask questions and it

01:15:55.260 sounds simple but it's really much deeper than people realize when everyone has access to

01:16:01.320 infinite information, discernment becomes priceless. The danger in the AI age is not

01:16:10.760 ignorance. It's false confidence. I can ask AI how to treat symptoms, but do I know the right

01:16:24.440 questions to ask to see if that analysis of what I'm treating is wrong? That the machine has

01:16:31.060 misdiagnosed or the machine, I didn't give it enough information. You can ask it legal advice,

01:16:37.940 but do you know when you need a real actual physical attorney?

01:16:45.120 You can generate, just ask it. You can do this. Give me a persuasive argument on both sides of

01:16:53.060 any issue. And it will. And you'll read both of them. You're like, wow, that's really good.

01:16:57.280 But do you still possess a moral compass strong enough to tell the truth from manipulation, from a really good, well-crafted argument?

01:17:06.920 Do you have that living moral compass inside of you?

01:17:11.580 That's the defining challenge of our era.

01:17:14.860 That's why I have said you will be lost without the spirit to guide you.

01:17:20.280 Because it's going to be so overwhelmingly well-crafted.

01:17:25.280 you may not know what is true the the whole thing is not whether machines can think yes

01:17:34.540 the real question is whether humans can still think and i'm not sure about that

01:17:43.200 listen to one of the most revealing things andreessen said he said when ai refuses to answer

01:17:50.780 people are already learning how to trick it into responding and he went on talking about

01:17:58.500 how people say they they know it won't give them information on certain things so he said

01:18:04.220 pretend this is for a novel okay this is profound this is really profound what does that tell you

01:18:13.240 that tells you that human nature has not changed the same species that used fire to cook food

01:18:23.080 used fire to burn witches and cities down to the ground the same internet that gives us libraries

01:18:32.160 will give us propaganda and scams and addiction and surveillance 0.71

01:18:36.680 AI will only magnify human intent.

01:18:42.080 Good and evil both scale with technology.

01:18:47.460 That means the future is not automatically utopia and not automatically catastrophe.

01:18:53.820 It depends on who's using the tools.

01:18:57.660 And are you going to let just the experts in Silicon Valley know how to use the tools?

01:19:04.140 Because I don't trust any of those people.

01:19:06.680 I don't trust any of them.

01:19:10.920 So what do you do?

01:19:13.660 First thing, stop thinking this is optional.

01:19:16.260 It's not optional.

01:19:17.460 This is not a hobby for tech nerds.

01:19:19.680 This is basic literacy now.

01:19:22.980 A person, if you refuse to learn AI today, you're going to be the person who refused to learn computers in 1995.

01:19:31.420 You don't have to become an engineer, but you have to be familiar.

01:19:35.860 You have to use it.

01:19:37.420 You have to experiment with it.

01:19:39.000 You have to know how it can suck you in and give you wrong answers and dangerous answers

01:19:45.040 so you can learn how to ask better questions.

01:19:48.400 You need to learn where it succeeds and where it lies to you because it lies.

01:19:55.420 You need to learn how to verify information.

01:20:00.560 Second thing you have to do is focus on deeply human skills.

01:20:04.440 Judgment, taste, wisdom, beauty, ethics, leadership, creativity, communication, courage.

01:20:13.220 The people who are going to survive in this transition, they're not going to be the smartest ones technically.

01:20:18.800 They'll be the people who can direct intelligence wisely.

01:20:24.300 Third thing, protect your humanity.

01:20:27.700 Do not outsource your soul to a machine.

01:20:30.840 AI can help you think, but it cannot tell you what's worth loving.

01:20:34.400 It cannot tell you what is sacred.

01:20:36.860 It can't tell you why your child matters more than efficiency.

01:20:40.380 It can't tell you what kind of civilization we should become.

01:20:43.580 Don't ask it those questions.

01:20:45.020 Those are human questions.

01:20:46.720 Those questions are meant for you.

01:20:49.840 And that's perhaps the strangest thing about this moment that we're living in now.

01:20:54.100 The more powerful the machines are becoming, the more valuable, truly human qualities may become.

01:21:00.100 empathy, meaning, faith, purpose, conscience, we are going to be flooded with synthetic

01:21:08.900 intelligence. Authenticity is going to become even more rare. Rare things become valuable.

01:21:18.540 You seeing what you should be working on? Because that's the real story hidden beneath

01:21:24.140 the conversation with joe rogan this is not a technological revolution this is a civilization

01:21:29.620 level test the tools are arriving faster than our wisdom that gap according to history every

01:21:39.820 bit of history i've ever read that gap can become very dangerous very quickly and we are talking

01:21:46.960 overnight. Please pay attention. Please do not unplug. Spit yourself out of the system you're

01:21:55.700 currently in. Recognize what you're going to plug into so you can immediately plug out of,

01:22:03.880 and you are the one that is controlling your own life, not just allowing it to be swept up

01:22:11.320 with the floodwaters that are already at your knees and maybe your waist and you just don't

01:22:17.500 know it yet. Back in just a second. Our sponsor this half hour is Patriot Mobile. Ever notice

01:22:25.100 how cell phone companies talk about themselves like they're your best friends? They show you

01:22:29.380 commercials with happy people running through fields in slow motion. Everybody's smiling.

01:22:33.680 Everybody's connected. You know, like your monthly phone bill is some kind of beautiful

01:22:37.600 human experience and then five minutes later you find out the company you've been given money to

01:25:29.080 Oh oh oh oh

01:25:32.300 Na na na na

01:25:33.860 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment

01:25:42.640 this is the glenn beck program glenn beck is on

01:25:49.360 you know in our country it's said that power flows from the people right but when you get

01:25:58.860 close enough to the machine now you realize i'm not quite i'm not sure that's exactly correct

01:26:06.620 anymore um you know there are the elected officials but then there seems to be this crime

01:26:13.020 family that is all around all through it that is actually you know in the in the old mafia movies

01:26:20.880 you know each family's got its territory look uh do the money laundering over here you get a little

01:26:26.940 of the politicians maybe uh this crime family over here they're handling the hookers and the uh

01:26:32.380 And the heroine, there are the enforcers, there's the media allies, there's all the corruption runs through all those movies, obviously.

01:26:44.120 And then there's the code of silence.

01:26:48.340 I, I think that we're actually dealing with crime families here.

01:26:53.660 And I can give you the five families that we're dealing with every single day.

01:26:58.620 Most importantly, every family protects the others when the public or the police are getting too close, okay?

01:27:06.820 They'll fight at the dinner table.

01:27:08.660 They'll kill each other in their Italian restaurants.

01:27:12.020 But when an outsider threatens the system, they unite immediately into the five families.

01:27:17.040 And I think there are five families, and I want to take you through them here in just a second.

01:27:22.220 First, let me tell you about Z Factor.

01:27:24.340 People used to talk about a good night's sleep like it was a normal thing that happened to most human beings.

01:27:29.260 But now that almost sounds like a unicorn to me.

01:27:32.580 Something like your grandparents used to experience back when bread cost a nickel and nobody had a smartphone.

01:27:39.740 These days, it seems like everybody has trouble sleeping.

01:27:43.520 Maybe because we have the smartphone five inches away from our face at night.

01:27:47.620 That's a problem.

01:27:48.980 This is why Z-Factor exists.

01:27:50.460 Z-Factor is a sleep formula from the makers of Relief Factor.

01:27:53.960 It's created to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up feeling like your body actually was rested.

01:28:02.080 Because the truth is, everything in your life works better when you're well rested.

01:28:05.320 When your mood and your focus, your energy, your patience, everything goes up.

01:28:09.100 And most people don't even realize how run down they become until they finally get a good night's sleep again.

01:28:28.580 Okay.

01:28:29.920 You remember in The Godfather when Don Corleone, you know, explains, you know, or, you know, you see it that behind every politician, every judge, every union boss, every business deal, there's a relationship here.

01:28:45.700 We owe each other some favors.

01:28:47.220 Well, you do me a favor.

01:28:48.300 I do you a favor.

01:28:49.700 That is modern Washington.

01:28:51.520 Um, and so let me tell you the five crime families that I think we should, we should just all have a chalkboard in front of us and realize which one of the crime families does this fit in? And then we can take it from there. Okay.

01:29:06.580 The first crime family, I think, is big pharma.

01:29:12.020 The corporations, not your doctor, the corporations, the revolving door regulators, the lobbyists, the advertising machine, the captured agencies, the people who somehow another move seamlessly between government oversight and billion dollar boardrooms.

01:29:29.540 and nobody even notices it, you know, because these are the people who decide what can be

01:29:35.080 questioned, what can be researched, what can be said publicly without some sort of punishment.

01:29:40.400 And if you cross them, you know, they don't usually break your legs. They'll just break

01:29:44.520 your reputation. Same mob tactics, just a little cleaner paperwork, you know, that's the first

01:29:52.120 crime family. I think big pharma. The second one, by the way, if I show up dead, uh, you know,

01:29:58.680 I was definitely not suicidal.

01:30:00.260 And by the way,

01:30:01.040 I love the mob.

01:30:02.000 If they exist,

01:30:02.820 I don't even think they exist,

01:30:03.840 but if they exist,

01:30:04.620 I love them.

01:30:05.140 Anyway,

01:30:05.720 the second,

01:30:06.680 the crime family is the military industrial complex.

01:30:11.040 Eisenhower warned us about this one.

01:30:13.160 Okay.

01:30:14.520 1961 five-star general looked American people in the eyes as like,

01:30:18.320 be aware,

01:30:19.500 be very aware.

01:30:20.500 Permanent war machine is forming right now.

01:30:23.780 Look around.

01:30:26.460 As we deplete,

01:30:27.860 as we send all of our munitions over to Ukraine.

01:30:34.140 It means we have to buy more.

01:30:37.860 War is an economic ecosystem in and of itself.

01:30:42.020 Defense contracts, regional economies are run on those things.

01:30:47.280 Politicians campaign on peace while funding endless conflict.

01:30:52.340 Retired generals end up on defense boards.

01:30:54.480 Think tanks write reports funded by weapons manufacturers.

01:30:57.860 Media networks bring on national security experts

01:31:01.000 sponsored by the industries profiting from the escalation.

01:31:06.120 I mean, it's amazing.

01:31:07.720 And I'm not talking about the soldiers.

01:31:09.100 I'm not talking about every intelligence officer

01:31:11.240 or everybody who is in a weapons program.

01:31:13.320 I'm talking about the family.

01:31:15.840 The family that survives on perpetual instability.

01:31:19.100 You know what I'm saying?

01:31:21.080 Peace is a way of being terrible to our quarterly earnings.

01:31:25.780 Third family.

01:31:27.860 is media this family is the what was it consigliere of of of the families

01:31:38.360 it's uh we're gonna just yeah just to advise you a little bit here media decides who gets

01:31:46.160 labeled dangerous who gets protected who gets ignored who gets memory hold who becomes a hero

01:31:52.800 overnight and uh who disappears i never heard of that guy what are you talking about i didn't know

01:31:58.180 i don't remember that story a real journalist is probably the most important person in a free

01:32:05.060 society an actual journalist okay they don't exist corporate media stopped behaving like

01:32:11.980 you know journalists years ago you know what they are they're narrative management firms

01:32:19.420 that's all they are oh it's a story we need to tell you okay we got it they tell you what you're

01:32:26.860 allowed to care about have you ever noticed that when a republican is in office you care about the

01:32:32.000 gas price when a democrat is in the office you don't care about gas prices why because the media

01:32:37.500 hasn't said you need to care about the gas prices

01:32:40.820 and notice how the families protect each other big pharma is challenged media rushes in

01:32:49.580 war is questioned media calls it dangerous corruption appears story vanishes in 48 hours

01:32:57.700 i mean what are they what is it omerta the code of silence that's what's happening

01:33:03.640 now let me tell you about the fourth family here fourth family is big tech

01:33:10.040 this is the if i were betting on the five families this is one i'd put my money on

01:33:17.980 that would be standing in the end that everyone will have to come and pay tribute to the dawn

01:33:22.880 because they control the flow of not information they control the flow of reality itself

01:33:32.780 i want you to think about this what here's what they decide they decide what trends what gets

01:33:40.920 buried what gets monetized what gets erased what information reaches your children what history is

01:33:47.460 remembered what opinions are safe what language triggers algorithms what stories die before you

01:33:53.700 ever see them okay in the mafia they don't own the neighborhood they own the streets they own

01:34:00.680 the phone lines they own the banks the surveillance cameras they own everything and unlike old

01:34:07.600 monopolies big tech doesn't collect money i just want you i want you to behave that's it

01:34:14.320 collect your behavior your emotions your patterns your beliefs your human consciousness

01:34:20.600 all of it they know what scares you before your spouse knows what scares you

01:34:27.500 and if you really want a fifth family i'll give it to you it's not wall street exactly it's bigger

01:34:36.720 than that it's the financial family it's the central banks the massive institutional investment

01:34:45.300 firms the global asset managers the hedge funds the credit systems the rating agencies the

01:34:51.980 international finance organizations the people that can punish nations without firing a single

01:34:58.380 bullet they don't need an army they don't need an enforcer they just raise interest rates they

01:35:06.360 crash your currency they freeze your capital they starve industries of investment who's the biggest

01:35:11.880 threat to uh to energy our banks because they won't invest in things that maybe one of the

01:35:19.820 other crime families that say, you shouldn't invest in that now. They can move a market with

01:35:26.140 one sentence whispered behind closed doors. And here's the key. All of the other crime families

01:35:34.920 depend on them. But why would I say they're not going to be the one that leads the way? Why are

01:35:41.580 they not the Don? Because big tech can put them out of business. Pharmacy needs financing. Defense

01:35:52.480 needs debt. Media needs advertisers. Tech needs capital. The financial family is the bank behind

01:36:00.760 the operation. Okay. In mafia movies, the Don doesn't go out and kill people himself. He didn't

01:36:10.560 do that i just not gonna help you i can't help you i can't help you no favor for you that's power

01:36:20.860 that's power now this doesn't mean that every institution is evil it doesn't mean there's

01:36:28.420 some secret room with five villains petting cats that's simplistic and that kind of thinking is

01:36:34.860 very very dangerous and that's the kind of thinking we have going on in the world today

01:36:38.220 The danger is the structure. When money, narrative, political influence, and technology fuse together, accountability disappears. Have you noticed the one thing that is completely void of our society? It's accountability. Nobody's accountable for anybody. No one in the five families ever go to jail. Ever.

01:37:03.060 and once that disappears citizens stop being citizens you're a customer i'm here to protect

01:37:11.640 you look you just need to pay this i protect you huh you're a data point

01:37:16.280 that's why we need a revolution no the answer is not chaos the answer is not burning the country

01:37:26.520 down because those five families are not going to let you do that that's exactly what they want you

01:37:32.000 to do because then others will beg for stronger bosses no the answer is sunlight transparency

01:37:41.060 actual journalism open debate term limits audits decentralization anti-monopoly enforcement local

01:37:50.680 control independent media whistleblower protection actual consequences for institutional lies and

01:37:58.640 corruption in other words we got to break up the family

01:38:02.120 that's what you're up against there are five crime families that is what you're actually fighting

01:38:11.840 we can survive a republic can survive corrupt men it's i mean we've survived how many corrupt

01:38:18.740 politicians over and over again we survive but no republic survives permanently hidden power

01:38:25.340 And that's what we are facing right now, permanently hidden power, especially power that has gotten so powerful, you're not allowed to name it.

01:38:35.940 By the way, again, not suicidal.

01:38:38.600 I'm happy.

01:38:39.800 I'm happy.

01:38:46.220 If you try to govern, this is what you're going to find.

01:38:50.140 There are the elected offices, and then there are the power centers.

01:38:53.140 and those are the five families that uh maybe we should pay attention to huh

01:38:59.560 because it's not a fun little movie this one doesn't end well unless we start saying

01:39:07.960 enough is enough enough is enough media we know exactly who you are journalists we know who you

01:39:14.360 are you notice um how the journalists who are uncovering truths that we find out are truths

01:39:23.100 what's uh in minnesota nick shirley yeah nick shirley notice how they treat nick shirley

01:39:29.020 nick shirley is like he has he's a kid who has has ripped the blindfolds off and shown the

01:39:39.820 corruption that is happening and what does the crime family do the media crime family oh man

01:39:45.660 he's dead to the you're dead to me nick if they could just memory hole him and make him disappear

01:39:52.800 they would his life is at stake why because he's going against the crime families that's why you 0.75

01:40:00.560 don't think that the the financial institutions knew what was going on you think they were blind

01:40:08.040 to everything that was happening in minnesota oh yeah sure yeah right seven million dollars in cash

01:40:14.960 went through that airport in how many months they didn't know where are you getting seven million

01:40:19.380 dollars in cash you don't think the federal reserve was alerted that there's seven million

01:40:24.080 dollars in cash just floating around going through the airport of course all of the crime families

01:40:30.600 knew. All of them knew. This is bigger than Donald Trump bad, orange man bad. It's so much

01:40:38.960 bigger than that. And until we can actually focus on that, until we can actually come together as

01:40:44.780 Americans and go, oh, that's what we're fighting against. Well, I'm not for any of that. Here's

01:40:49.860 what I am for. We're going to lose. So let's start thinking, what are we for? What are we for?

01:40:57.160 because I'm against that. What are we for? Let's fight for those principles. Back in just a second,

01:41:05.640 let me tell you about rapid radios. Something oddly comforting about the fact that dads have

01:41:11.420 been preparing for disasters since the beginning of time. I mean, maybe not actual disasters,

01:41:15.840 you know, just certainly the possibility of disasters. That's why dad always has three

01:41:20.560 flashlights. You know, he knows where one of them is at any given time. He's close to one of them.

01:41:26.020 He knows, you know, there's a jumper cable kit in the trunk, you know, a random box of batteries in the garage, a weather radio that only comes when the sky turns green.

01:41:34.420 Dad's the guy.

01:41:35.220 He values preparation and communication.

01:41:37.600 And I can tell you that's why he will like rapid radios.

01:41:40.380 They are built to keep people connected without all the usual headaches. 0.95

01:41:43.340 There's no license required, no programming, no monthly fees, no learning curve where you just have to sit and watch six YouTube videos just to figure out how the damn thing works.

01:41:51.540 You turn it on, you press a button and you talk. 0.81

01:41:54.320 And they work nationwide.

01:41:55.640 They're incredibly practical for travel, family communication, emergencies, outdoor trips, or just having a simple, reliable way to reach people that you care about.

01:42:03.120 Go to RapidRadios.com.

01:42:04.780 They ship fast from their headquarters in Michigan.

01:42:07.240 It's RapidRadios.com.

01:42:09.120 Rapid Radios.

01:42:10.940 Communication.

01:42:11.800 Redefined.

01:42:13.540 10 seconds.

01:42:14.400 Station ID.

01:42:25.640 so ricky just asked me what inspired that monologue you didn't even go to italy on your

01:42:33.380 vacation no uh i i had dinner with uh some politicians uh over in the eu and i learned

01:42:41.900 so much and they started talking about the crime families and i said what do you mean

01:42:47.000 crime families and they said there are three there are three crime families and uh and their

01:42:54.100 crime families i think were the first three in mine um i i added uh the crime families but you

01:43:03.080 know they said big pharma military industrial complex and media yeah people in europe said that

01:43:10.420 yeah big pharma and they said because i said you know what is your industry what is your industry

01:43:16.980 how are you going to rebuild how are you going to get out of the situation you're in and they're

01:43:22.220 Like you can't because the EU is, you know, the world economic forum, the EU, they are just pushing these things.

01:43:31.720 And, um, you know, we are going to be in endless war.

01:43:35.720 We're going to be sick.

01:43:37.180 We're going to be paying for all of these things.

01:43:39.540 Our food is being controlled really through, you know, GMOs and everything else.

01:43:44.120 All of this stuff is happening in the media is covering up for it.

01:43:47.340 And until you get the media crime family solved, you're not going to be able to go after any of the other crime families.

01:43:55.680 And I found that interesting.

01:43:57.200 I found that interesting.

01:43:58.240 You know, several politicians I talked to over in Europe, I met with several politicians in several different countries.

01:44:05.260 And it was fascinating to me how much, how grateful they were to the American people for voting in Donald Trump and how at the same time we're like, we can't take much more Donald Trump.

01:44:21.200 And it's like, what do you, what do you, what do you mean?

01:44:23.000 They're like, he's killing us with the, with the gas prices and everything else.

01:44:26.660 It's, it's killing us.

01:44:28.000 We, we are your greatest supporters, but we're losing support because he's doing things that are unpopular here.

01:44:35.000 And I'm like, dude, you, I mean, he's not the president for you, you know, your, your

01:44:39.860 people are your people, England, you're on your own, man.

01:44:42.420 He's doing what he has to do for America.

01:44:44.440 And if you think that America is going to continue to protect England, it's not going

01:44:49.500 to protect England.

01:44:50.260 It's just not going to, well, we can't afford to protect ourself.

01:44:53.560 Well, that's your problem, not our problem.

01:44:55.320 You think we can afford it.

01:44:56.940 We can't afford to protect England.

01:44:58.880 You know, I said to somebody over, uh, in, in Europe and in great Britain, we were talking 0.73

01:45:04.500 And I said, I got to tell you, I'm going to tell the president next time I see him, I'm going to tell him, you got to pull our nuclear weapons out of Europe. 0.69

01:45:11.000 You got to pull them out of Europe. 1.00

01:45:13.000 I mean, those things are going to fall into the hands and you'll have a continent ruled by Islamic nations that have nuclear weapons. 1.00

01:45:25.100 You're going to have that. 1.00

01:45:26.600 It's inevitable at this point if you don't wake up right now and Europe's absolutely asleep, absolutely asleep.

01:45:34.500 We got it. We've got to protect ourselves. And, you know, I had one politician tell me, I see what Donald Trump is doing. The future is not us anymore. The future is the Western Hemisphere. And I'm like, damn right. Damn right. That's exactly right. He'd love to help. But you got to help yourself. And they're just trapped. They're trapped. They can't get past the EU.

01:46:00.420 You know, the EU said it's all for one and one for all.

01:46:03.700 Now it's majority rule.

01:46:04.980 You know that?

01:46:05.800 Now the small states, they don't, you can't block anything.

01:46:09.720 Now it's all majority rule.

01:46:11.220 They just changed that.

01:46:12.400 That's insane.

01:46:14.680 It's insane. 0.51

01:46:16.020 But that's Europe for you. 0.51

01:46:18.120 And it's suicidal. 0.97

01:46:20.460 Suicidal.

01:46:21.060 And the only way to solve it is for us. 0.92

01:46:23.380 I can't solve Europe.

01:46:24.460 For us, look at the five crime families.

01:47:45.680 wife who found a way to remind us on memorial day that america is still good it's the white

01:47:50.500 pill you need and it's next on the glenbeck program

01:47:53.080 welcome to the glenbeck program it was memorial day weekend and man there were

01:48:17.820 So many black pills from the memory of George Floyd,

01:48:24.180 who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago,

01:48:28.520 the moment that changed our lives forever.

01:48:29.960 This is from Jacob Fry, the mayor of Minneapolis.

01:48:33.020 And is that Memorial Day?

01:48:36.940 George Floyd?

01:48:38.020 That's Memorial Day.

01:48:39.220 Okay.

01:48:40.240 Then the Democrats posted,

01:48:41.540 Today we honor the American heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in Trump's war with Iran.

01:48:45.780 I actually appreciate the fact that we see their faces.

01:48:50.080 I do.

01:48:50.400 But it's the intent.

01:48:52.080 Their intent was not actually to honor.

01:48:53.900 It was to make a political point.

01:48:56.340 And I immediately think of the 13 that lost their life at Abbey Gate that we never heard their name.

01:49:06.540 Biden would never say their name.

01:49:08.440 Nobody in the media ever cared, ever cared.

01:49:12.080 And those families were crushed by it.

01:49:15.780 But that's the black pill.

01:49:17.720 Let me give you a white pill.

01:49:19.680 May I?

01:49:22.020 There was a post.

01:49:25.360 I just want to read it to you.

01:49:27.160 From Cheryl Ann.

01:49:28.060 This is probably a long shot, but if anybody happens to be in D.C. this weekend and plans on visiting Arlington, I'd love to see a fresh photo of my husband's grave.

01:49:37.800 In section 60, Alan Shaw died February 9th, 2007.

01:49:45.780 there's just something knowing people will still stop by

01:49:49.920 still say his name and still remember

01:49:52.160 so people started asking

01:49:55.080 what was he like tell me about him

01:49:57.260 and then I think just miracles happened

01:50:02.080 and Cheryl Ann is with us now

01:50:05.140 hello Cheryl

01:50:06.500 hi Glenn

01:50:08.220 how are you

01:50:10.000 I am grateful this morning

01:50:13.660 I'm grateful

01:50:15.020 so uh your your husband uh died in 2007 and you say you try to keep his memory alive

01:50:26.440 um and it's not easy not easy for you to get out to arlington cemetery um tell me what happened

01:50:35.900 this weekend well just like other memorial days we've we've not been able to attend

01:50:44.280 And I thought reaching out to people who would be in the area was a good idea.

01:50:51.880 I thought maybe I might get one or two people to stop by and just say hello and snap a quick picture for me.

01:50:59.400 And the unbelievable happened from there.

01:51:04.180 people from all over the world have responded to that post with prayers pictures pictures of

01:51:15.500 of their loved ones as well as pictures of alan's final resting place in section 60 it has been

01:51:25.300 absolutely heartwarming

01:51:27.600 to see

01:51:28.300 and then

01:51:31.980 you

01:51:32.800 find out from Tulsi Gabbard

01:51:35.800 that she

01:51:37.900 stopped by the grave

01:51:40.060 that was

01:51:43.680 one of the most moving

01:51:45.880 moments of the day was

01:51:47.820 seeing her

01:51:48.660 taking the time

01:51:51.000 to say his name

01:51:53.160 and remember a sacrifice and leave a challenge coin at his headstone.

01:51:59.080 It was moving, very much so.

01:52:05.080 What did you think going into the weekend?

01:52:07.980 Where were you emotionally going into the weekend?

01:52:10.660 And what did you learn, and how are you coming out of the weekend?

01:52:13.000 going into the weekend what i wanted to do was

01:52:20.440 remind everybody that it was okay to have their barbecues and and their celebrations and their

01:52:28.160 fireworks um but just remember why we're able to do that remember that these freedoms we're

01:52:35.340 enjoying come at a very high cost um so celebrate but be grateful

01:52:42.440 and i think i think sometimes as a gold star family member we forget that we forget to do

01:52:55.920 that in our own lives. So coming out of this weekend, I'm grateful. I'm grateful not only

01:53:07.580 for the sacrifice Alan and so many others made, but I'm grateful that patriots from

01:53:15.480 all walks of life showed up to say his name and remember him and pray over him. The amount

01:53:21.720 of prayers I got yesterday was unbelievable. And it was, it was moving. God works and he's

01:53:39.820 working, not only in me, but in this country. And it's a powerful thing to watch.

01:53:46.340 i read your story about i don't know 4 30 this morning and uh i just so wanted to talk to you

01:53:57.420 today because it is so easy to get bogged down into all of the

01:54:04.280 all of the nasty stuff in today's climate and to really have to lose hope that there are good

01:54:15.700 people. And I read your story. It just renews your faith in people, doesn't it?

01:54:36.280 Absolutely. Absolutely. Especially on social media, there's so much division and so much hate. And, you know, as someone who is active on social media, I receive a lot of that.

01:54:55.200 people have said

01:54:58.280 the most vile things

01:55:00.200 about me, our kids

01:55:01.780 and Alan

01:55:03.180 so to see Americans

01:55:08.120 come together and truly appreciate

01:55:10.600 the day for what it was

01:55:14.220 you know

01:55:16.380 in your lead up here

01:55:18.400 you mentioned

01:55:19.520 how the Democrats

01:55:21.420 addressed the day in their

01:55:24.320 deleted post um and how how the mayor addressed the day i saw that and normally that those would

01:55:36.260 be conversations i would engage in but american patriots from all over the place made sure that

01:55:46.020 i understood that those those voices aren't the majority at all they're not representative of the

01:55:54.940 true american spirit i can't i can't let you go without asking you to share with the audience

01:56:06.200 the best thing about your husband

01:56:08.260 oh how do i even start that's we don't have all day um but the best

01:56:20.860 we don't have all day and i don't even know where to start he alan was larger than life

01:56:32.880 And everybody who knew him will remember him forever, not just for his sacrifice, but for who he was as a man, who he was as a soldier, who he was as a leader.

01:56:53.720 He was everything.

01:56:55.040 amazing it's amazing how many lifetimes ago 2007 seems and yet when you lose somebody it still

01:57:08.140 feels like yesterday absolutely absolutely

01:57:12.040 cheryl thank you for talking to me today appreciate it thank you god bless you you bet

01:57:21.920 You bet.

01:57:22.380 Bye-bye.

01:57:23.880 I couldn't let today go by.

01:57:27.420 I'm so glad that she would agree to come on and talk to me.

01:57:30.600 I saw that story early, early this morning.

01:58:10.020 you're not alone

01:58:12.720 more in a minute

01:58:15.580 ever notice how when

01:58:19.860 When you're a kid, adults always seem to be sitting down after they stand up, they get out of the car just for a second, they pause for a second, they make that sound when they get off the couch and they walk down the stairs like they're negotiating a peace treaty with their knees.

01:58:33.460 When you're young, you don't really, you're just like, ah, that's the old guy. 0.98

01:58:36.920 You assume that that's what old people do. 0.98

01:58:38.740 And then one day you stand up and try to get out of a chair and you catch yourself making that sound. 0.95

01:58:42.740 You're like, what's just happened to me?

01:58:44.040 relief factor is a daily supplement designed to help support your body's

01:58:48.640 response to inflammation,

01:59:25.540 Glenn Beck

01:59:26.440 will be right back.

01:59:36.220 A safer Ontario means more

01:59:38.280 police and prosecutors making sure my car

01:59:40.420 doesn't get stolen. It means

01:59:42.160 building new jails to keep criminals behind bars.

01:59:45.280 And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park.

01:59:48.640 We're making every corner of Ontario safer to make all of Ontario safer.

01:59:53.280 That's how we protect Ontario.

01:59:55.280 For all of us.

01:59:57.360 Learn how at Ontario.ca slash SaferOntario. Paid for by the Government of Ontario.

02:00:12.160 so there was an interview on face nation yesterday margaret brennan asked two medal

02:00:20.640 of honor recipients what makes them optimistic about america's future and she i think she's

02:00:26.120 you know well i'll just play it for you just listen here's cut four what specifically makes

02:00:33.840 you optimistic because this country at times can feel dark these days there's a lot of darkness

02:00:39.640 What makes you feel optimistic?

02:00:42.460 Well, ultimately, because we're in Washington, D.C., and everything revolves around politics,

02:00:47.320 we have to remember that politics aren't everything.

02:00:49.720 American lives continue on.

02:00:51.420 Children are born. 0.92

02:00:52.300 Children go to school.

02:00:53.540 Lives are achieved.

02:00:54.540 Dreams are achieved.

02:00:55.620 This country is a great place.

02:00:57.260 It's not politics.

02:00:58.280 It's not just what's the news bites coming off of media.

02:01:01.880 Ultimately, we continue forward as a country, continually imperfect, continually evolving

02:01:05.620 forward, always trying to achieve a more perfect union.

02:01:09.460 That's what's important to remember, what we can achieve aspirationally.

02:01:13.240 No other place in history, time, or on this planet have ever gotten to where we are today.

02:01:17.980 We need to be proud of that, and we need to remember that is what we stay focused on, what we can be.

02:01:23.780 What we can be, and the promise of it.

02:01:26.580 What makes you optimistic?

02:01:28.360 It's so important to remember who we are as a country, and take an opportunity to celebrate that,

02:01:33.940 and think about all the challenges that we've overcome, how far we've actually come.

02:01:38.120 You know, I think if you if you frame it that way, you think very deeply about our trials and tribulations from beginning to today.

02:01:45.980 We've made tremendous strides. Our country is, you know, we're a global superpower.

02:01:51.580 Our economy is doing well. All those things are great.

02:01:54.800 And take politics aside out of this whole conversation.

02:01:58.560 Be grateful for what you've got and the opportunities that it's provided for you.

02:02:02.400 And if you do that, I don't see how you can't be optimistic about our future.

02:02:05.300 Well, thank you. Thank you both. And thank you for your service.

02:02:10.300 So it's interesting to me that in a way they're both, their answer is the same gratitude.

02:02:17.620 We just have to appreciate what we have right now. We have to appreciate where we are, what we have.

02:02:24.720 I mean, I just came back from a vacation two weeks, a week over in England, which would just 0.65

02:02:31.880 wake you up like nobody's business and then i went through hungary and the czech republic and

02:02:38.620 and austria and my gosh you think america has had hard times or we've done bad things

02:02:48.960 what these people have done to themselves over and over again what they did to their neighbors

02:02:53.640 how they just killed mass slaughtered mass graves everywhere uh it's remarkable and and how they are

02:03:01.260 still struggling to pull themselves out and try to grasp onto something a fraction of what we have

02:03:07.960 you'll come back so grateful to be an american and to live here um and you'll see things much

02:03:16.320 much more clearly at least i'm seeing things much more clearly there's a something else i want to

02:03:23.660 play the last surviving flamethrower operator from his battalion he fought in iwo jima

02:03:31.540 he was at the national memorial day parade he's 101 listen to him

02:03:39.840 i consider this a great privilege to stand here and sing about my nation

02:03:48.280 and if that isn't good enough for it

02:03:53.580 it'll serve you right

02:03:54.580 God bless America

02:04:03.080 land that I love
