00:01:43.800 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
00:02:03.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:07.280 Glenn Beck is on.
00:02:08.920 Hello, America.
00:02:10.280 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:11.880 It is Wednesday, the 7th of January, in the year 2026, that is going to be remembered as a year the entire world changed.
00:02:23.480 I absolutely believe 26 and 27 are monumental and will decide, and I think it's being seen right now, is America an empire in decline?
00:02:35.520 I want to talk to you about Iran, North Korea, Greenland, the arsenal of democracy, what's happening in New York with Mamdani, and CRINK.
00:02:47.740 I'm going to start with a term or an acronym you probably have not heard before, but it is what is being dismantled or attempting to be dismantled by this administration right now, CRINK.
00:03:00.080 We'll go there in 60 seconds.
00:03:02.580 First, let me tell you about rapid radios.
00:03:03.980 Out on the ranch, you learn pretty quick.
00:03:06.020 You know, regular phones, not really a solid plan.
00:03:09.140 There are dead zones.
00:03:10.280 There are moments when you don't, you know, have time to dig a phone out of your pocket and just hope you have a signal.
00:03:14.900 In fact, we don't have signals up at the ranch.
00:03:18.360 That's why we use rapid radios.
00:03:20.900 They just work.
00:03:21.880 No apps, no cell service, no waiting for a bar to pop up.
00:03:24.720 You press a button and you're talking instantly, whether you're checking fences, moving equipment, you know, I actually had one of the guys that works at the ranch.
00:03:33.600 He went off a cliff accidentally and his forerunner was upside down in the top of a tree.
00:03:42.120 That was an interesting thing because he couldn't get down and we finally were like, where's Caesar?
00:03:50.080 We found him in the top of a tree with the forerunner, but he had no cell service, nothing.
00:03:56.120 Rapid radios would have come in handy.
00:03:58.760 We have them now at the ranch.
00:04:00.360 Rapidradios.com.
00:04:01.500 Go there now, secure your exclusive savings and elevate your business communication.
00:04:05.720 It's rapidradios.com.
00:04:08.060 Rapidradios.com.
00:04:09.680 Communication.
00:04:10.520 Redefined.
00:04:11.040 Well, let me, I don't even know where to start.
00:04:18.320 I have so much.
00:04:19.600 I can't wait to explain to you today.
00:04:22.300 You know, I've been on this, this, this hunt, I feel since over the weekend with Venezuela and it's all starting just to fall into place.
00:04:34.880 You know, one of the only skills I think God gave me was the completely useless, you know, when the world breaks down storytelling ability.
00:04:44.880 That's going to get me, that's going to get me eaten by week one.
00:04:47.540 They're like, he's out of stories and he looks delicious.
00:04:50.300 The other thing that I do have an ability to do is connect the dots.
00:04:56.740 And I've been on this dot connecting kick here in the last few days and more dots seem to be appearing.
00:05:04.840 And I, it's becoming very clear that America and empire in decline is not a thing.
00:05:15.860 And I, I want to take several layers of this, but I want to start with an acronym that you've probably never heard before.
00:05:23.980 Crink.
00:05:24.420 Crink, C-R-I-N-K, crink.
00:05:29.780 What does it stand for?
00:05:32.000 It is what we would call the axis power.
00:05:37.600 And I have been talking about, we're watching an axis power being created.
00:05:41.860 I've been saying that forever.
00:05:42.980 Look at, the sides are being defined.
00:05:45.640 The axis power.
00:05:47.080 And it's China, C, Russia, R, Iran, I, and North Korea.
00:05:55.920 Crink.
00:05:57.940 That's the axis power.
00:06:00.680 And I've been saying, where's Churchill?
00:06:03.560 Where's anybody who, you know, where, where's the allied power?
00:06:07.040 Because NATO, that's not a power.
00:06:11.440 That's not, that's not going to come in helpful at all.
00:06:14.620 It felt like the entire West was in decline.
00:06:18.780 And it's because we've been talking about decline.
00:06:21.740 We're in decline.
00:06:24.280 Or are we?
00:06:26.180 We elected Donald Trump because we were tired of this.
00:06:30.820 And we're tired of these endless wars and everything else.
00:06:34.360 And Donald Trump had a vision.
00:06:36.040 And he tried to tell me this, you know, for the year leading up to the election.
00:06:40.060 Glenn, I got it.
00:06:40.740 I got it.
00:06:41.240 You won't believe how fast we're going to, we're going to change everything.
00:06:44.120 And we're going to have a new American century.
00:06:48.120 But it's going to happen.
00:06:49.520 It's going to happen quickly.
00:06:50.420 And I didn't understand it.
00:06:52.620 I think I'm just beginning to understand it.
00:06:58.480 We're not, he's not building an American empire.
00:07:01.780 He is building something that I think is much closer to what we were hoping for or thought was going to be built in the 1990s when we talked about a unipolar moment.
00:07:14.500 You know, that America was going to lead, but everybody was going to get together because we're all free now.
00:07:24.020 And, you know, we had these hopes of lollipops and sugar plums and everything was going to be great because we won.
00:07:30.540 And the science is settled.
00:07:32.440 And we didn't realize that communism just changed uniforms.
00:07:36.780 And we were entering this really very dangerous world because we would get fat and sassy and lazy.
00:07:44.040 Donald Trump is changing and building a new allied power.
00:07:50.260 And I told you a couple of days ago, and I think, you know, we need to really think this through.
00:07:57.340 I think he's given up on Europe.
00:07:59.620 And I think he should give up on Europe, honestly.
00:08:01.960 I mean, they can come to the table at any time.
00:08:03.600 They can change their destiny.
00:08:05.000 And I'd love for them to join.
00:08:07.460 But until they decide they want to survive, they're over.
00:08:11.340 So let me just take you through the things that are happening.
00:08:16.100 And I want to get to Iran and I want to get to Greenland.
00:08:18.980 But let me explain first the power that he is building, what he's building here.
00:08:26.800 Let's start where he started in the Middle East.
00:08:29.160 We have gone from endless wars to a loosely, you know, U.S. anchored block.
00:08:36.640 We're no longer walking in and saying, we're going to do it.
00:08:41.660 We're going to nation build.
00:08:43.040 Instead, he's saying, you know what, this doesn't work.
00:08:46.800 And we'd love to help broker a deal between all of you guys.
00:08:50.320 And, you know, look what you can build.
00:08:53.300 And let me help you with the framework so you can all get along.
00:08:57.520 For 20 years, it feels like America longer than that.
00:09:02.300 The story of the Middle East was Americans go in, Americans retreat, and Iranians advance, right?
00:09:10.760 Then in the first term, he came with the Abraham Accords.
00:09:14.500 And Israel normalized with the UAE and Bahrain and Morocco.
00:09:19.920 And now everybody is, now it seems like everybody is normalizing relations.
00:09:24.380 And he has taken the entire Middle East, which was available to all of the presidents in the past, but they didn't do it for some reason or didn't get it.
00:09:34.880 They all don't want Iran.
00:09:37.520 They know Iran is dangerous.
00:09:39.800 He just took them all and went, yeah, you guys should all get together because you can actually be a global power and influence, but not with Iran.
00:09:52.540 And so he normalized the relations between them.
00:09:57.880 And it wasn't just a series of photo ops for him.
00:10:02.140 It was he took the U.S. and aligned the economic and security architecture for everybody.
00:10:10.380 Israel, the Gulf, potentially Saudi Arabia, and the U.S.
00:10:15.560 But we're not the ones doing it.
00:10:17.860 We're not the ones that are fighting everybody's battles.
00:10:20.440 That's really important.
00:10:22.540 Now, layer on top of that, the Israelis and Iran went to war.
00:10:29.380 And the only thing that we did was we destroyed their nuclear capability.
00:10:35.240 The other thing we did with Iran, which we didn't have no boots on the ground, nobody's no soldiers, no airmen, you know, at risk here.
00:10:46.720 We just stopped sending them pallets of cash.
00:10:51.800 Now, what is happening in Iran?
00:10:53.920 Iran is facing the worst economic crisis in modern history.
00:11:00.480 Inflation is now at 52% for this last year.
00:11:05.120 And the real, which is their dollar, if you will, is now 1.47 million reals to one U.S. dollar.
00:11:15.740 The average Iranian is making $200 a month.
00:11:22.300 You can go in with a U.S. dollar and buy bread for 36 cents.
00:11:29.600 That seems cheap for U.S. dollars.
00:11:34.020 But if you're buying everything in reals, that's 500,000 reals and you're making $200.
00:11:41.700 Your rent is more than $200.
00:11:43.760 They can't feed themselves.
00:11:44.940 They can't heat their house.
00:11:46.460 They can't do anything.
00:11:47.300 It's almost a free fall and it's almost Weimar Republic status, okay?
00:11:55.280 So everyone is consumed with just surviving.
00:11:59.720 You know, when you have fear, when you have oppression, that's bad and that'll get people into the streets.
00:12:06.840 But when they cannot survive, they can't eat, that changes everything.
00:12:12.500 And the axis of resistance, that's Hezbollah, Hamas, the Iraqi militias, the Houthis, all of that.
00:12:24.000 They can't afford to keep all of that together.
00:12:27.520 But now the regime is bringing these people in.
00:12:30.700 They are Arab.
00:12:32.480 The vast majority of people that live in Iran are Persian.
00:12:37.000 Persians are very different than Arabs.
00:12:39.500 They have Arabs now coming in to be the brute force.
00:12:46.200 That's not going to go well.
00:12:48.940 Now, this doesn't immediately create peace, but it is shifting the momentum.
00:12:59.360 So I'm going to come back to Iran here in a minute, but let me just show you now.
00:13:03.160 So you have Israel plus the Sunni Arabs.
00:13:05.960 Iran is weakened, distracted.
00:13:12.940 Russia, China, what's happening there, and North Korea.
00:13:18.640 Let me show you what this means with just North Korea and all of this.
00:13:24.940 With Krink.
00:13:26.640 He's just dismantling these people.
00:13:28.780 It's amazing what's happening so fast.
00:13:30.960 Second point, energy.
00:13:35.860 What has been our biggest problem?
00:13:38.600 Why are we always in these wars?
00:13:40.520 And they always say, well, it's in the American interest.
00:13:43.160 Why?
00:13:44.280 Oil, right?
00:13:45.620 That's been the big argument.
00:13:47.480 Oil, oil, oil.
00:13:48.420 And anybody who is a conservative, you know, or just common sense and doesn't think that oil is the big worst thing that could ever happen, we've all been saying, we have enough oil.
00:14:01.880 Why are we buying our oil from the Middle East?
00:14:04.180 We have enough.
00:14:05.320 Okay?
00:14:05.580 Now, we need much more because there's an coming energy crisis the world over.
00:14:12.500 But we have had this addiction to oil, and it has been our biggest weakness because everybody can use it against us.
00:14:21.360 We can have, you know, shortages of oil.
00:14:23.620 They can cut us off.
00:14:24.720 We're constantly having to go to war for oil, although we never go to war for oil.
00:14:29.520 We all know we all went to war for oil.
00:14:31.220 Okay?
00:14:33.060 Trump came in and said, enough of this, and applied common sense.
00:14:38.540 We're not going to fight over oil anymore.
00:14:40.700 We've got our own oil.
00:14:43.800 But what did he do?
00:14:46.360 He is now making deals all over the world to make sure that we're controlled, like OPEC used to control the world's oil.
00:14:54.580 Our hemisphere is going to control the Western world's energy.
00:14:59.740 Not OPEC.
00:15:01.760 Us.
00:15:03.620 That is part of what I called the, what did I say that it was yesterday, the, oh, shoot, the arsenal of democracy.
00:15:14.620 Okay?
00:15:15.200 We are preparing for war, whether we like it or not.
00:15:18.160 We are preparing for a massive war.
00:15:21.080 Hopefully, because we're preparing for it, it will never happen.
00:15:24.020 But we are now not the vulnerable importer.
00:15:29.200 We are now the stable producer and the one who is shepherding all of the oil.
00:15:35.700 Did you hear what happened just a couple of hours ago?
00:15:39.920 We have been following this tanker that has been Russian flagged.
00:15:45.120 Okay?
00:15:45.300 Once you flag a ship, then if you flag it Russia, then the Russian Navy can get involved because that's a Russian flagged ship, even though it doesn't belong to Russia.
00:15:55.660 We have been following this ship and trying to stop this oil tanker from bringing oil that should not be going overseas from Venezuela.
00:16:06.060 And we have been trying to track it down.
00:16:09.540 Well, about a few hours ago, maybe five hours ago, we caught up with it.
00:16:13.720 Now, Russia was sending ships to protect this because it was a Russian flagged ship.
00:16:22.120 What happened?
00:16:23.600 Our Navy just pulled up to it and boarded it.
00:16:26.540 And that ship is now where it belongs.
00:16:29.180 It's impounded.
00:16:30.260 It was never supposed to be taking oil.
00:16:33.000 It was against international law.
00:16:35.200 We had an embargo on it, et cetera, et cetera.
00:16:37.720 Well, we caught up with it.
00:16:39.100 So we are very, very serious about this.
00:16:42.980 And because of the way Venezuela just happened, American credibility on the war front, the rest of the world, our enemies are freaking out right now because even people who are in the military, I shouldn't say in the military, I'm sure they know more, but people who have been watching the military, former military, people that know about the military, even they are looking at it going, how the hell did we just pull this off with Venezuela?
00:17:12.980 What do we, how did we beat that?
00:17:16.080 That's Russian, that's China, that's the best technology or some of the best technology that is able to be sold out of those countries.
00:17:26.740 And we shut it down like it was a baby gate.
00:17:31.560 How did we do that?
00:17:33.500 We don't know.
00:17:34.760 Do we have new technology or are they just that bad?
00:17:38.140 Right now, the rest of the world realizes, holy cow, militarily, America is not a declining power.
00:17:46.820 It is way ahead of where we are and where we thought they were.
00:17:53.960 So that, they're just that alone is changing the dynamics.
00:17:58.360 You don't have to exercise that power.
00:18:01.000 If everyone knows you have that power and everybody goes, you don't want to mess with them.
00:18:06.040 When power comes, strength, peace through strength, that is now a proven part of it.
00:18:14.620 And if you look at the pieces that are on the board, I think Cuba is going to, I think in the next year, Cuba will collapse.
00:18:21.340 Because where is Cuba?
00:18:22.940 Cuba can't get any money from Russia.
00:18:25.740 They don't have it.
00:18:27.480 They don't have it.
00:18:28.080 They're busy and tied up in Ukraine.
00:18:29.860 They were supporting, they started cutting Cuba off.
00:18:35.680 Cuba needs the money because communism doesn't work.
00:18:39.420 And so they needed the money.
00:18:40.400 So where did they go?
00:18:41.240 They went to Venezuela and they were getting oil and support from Venezuela and they were providing other things for Venezuela.
00:18:48.500 Well, you just took Venezuela away.
00:18:51.680 So what's Cuba going to do?
00:18:54.120 Where's Cuba?
00:18:56.660 What is China going to do without all of the energy?
00:18:59.260 You can't invade Taiwan without all of that oil.
00:19:02.260 Can't do it.
00:19:04.900 All right.
00:19:05.520 Let me continue and show you the world that he is creating.
00:19:09.160 And then I want to bring you up to speed on what happened in Iran because this is something we have not had a chance to go in depth on.
00:19:15.380 And it's really important because it's not being collapsed by us.
00:19:21.020 I mean, it is, but in all the right ways.
00:19:23.940 We're not sending them pallets of cash anymore.
00:19:26.180 So what does that mean?
00:19:31.660 Brings us back to Crink.
00:19:34.180 And I want to show you why this has happened in the last 18, 12 months.
00:19:41.640 I keep thinking that it's been longer than it is.
00:19:43.880 It's, it's, we're not even at the 12 month point yet.
00:19:47.400 And look how the world is changing.
00:19:51.900 Crazy change.
00:19:53.080 More in just a second.
00:19:54.120 Let me tell you about legacy box.
00:19:56.400 Tell me you don't own a box like this one.
00:19:58.680 Old VHS tapes, you know, from a camcorder.
00:20:01.680 You don't own any more stacks of cassettes and films and reels.
00:20:04.960 And, you know, these cassettes, these video cassettes that you don't even know what that used to play in or how that was even recorded.
00:20:12.020 And it's just sitting there in this box and it's wearing down with time.
00:20:15.520 And then, you know, time will sneak up on you.
00:20:18.360 And, you know, memories aren't frozen and, you know, magnetic tape breaks down, film degrades.
00:20:24.300 And eventually, if you wait long enough, they're just, they're dust because you didn't care and you stored them improperly, et cetera, et cetera.
00:20:31.720 But they just weren't made to last.
00:20:33.100 And that's including pictures.

00:21:08.340 Ten seconds and back to the show.
00:21:18.240 Okay.
00:21:23.380 I'm going to get to Iran here in a second and tell you what's going on and what to watch for.
00:21:27.200 But let me just tell you another thing that he has done.
00:21:31.700 He's building, he's, he's building a new era.
00:21:35.560 He is building an American, a new American century.
00:21:40.380 And it's, it's happening so fast.
00:21:44.120 The other thing that he's done and he's doing it the right way.
00:21:47.480 He is negotiating and making these partners all around the world so we can protect ourselves and our way of life and the Western civilization, honestly.
00:21:59.640 He's pushed $10 billion in critical mineral deals across multiple countries just in the last 12 months.
00:22:08.160 So China has a monopoly on refining.
00:22:11.820 They, I mean, they had all of the rare earth minerals.
00:22:15.020 They had all the cobalt.
00:22:16.220 They had everything.
00:22:17.960 Notice they don't.
00:22:19.760 And why?
00:22:20.880 Because he's been going around the world making deals through pressure and, and good deal making, you know, one way or another.
00:22:28.920 He'll get it.
00:22:29.800 He's developing this axis, or sorry, allied power.
00:22:35.240 And we're getting all of the resources we need.
00:22:38.580 And I haven't even told you about the dollar and gold yet.
00:22:42.860 Wait until you hear this, save the dollar.
00:22:45.440 I think he's on that road.
00:22:47.120 All right.
00:22:49.760 Let me tell you about real estate agents.
00:22:50.940 I trust most people, you know, don't really know how to evaluate real estate agents.
00:22:55.060 Everybody has a license.
00:22:56.100 Everybody has a smile.
00:22:57.400 Everybody says, I'm the top producer.
00:22:58.920 But when the markets shift and the deal gets complicated, that's when a difference between a salesperson and a professional really shows up.
00:23:06.860 And that's why real estate agents I trust exists.
00:23:09.740 It's not a directory of, you know, who's paid to be listed.
00:23:13.460 This is a network of agents who have been vetted for experience.
00:23:17.280 These agents call us because we are a great referral service.
00:23:21.360 And we have thousands, literally thousands of agents that want to work with real estate agents I trust.
00:23:27.460 But we keep the number down to, I think it's about 3,000 agents around the country because we want to be able to watch them, make sure, because they don't work for me.
00:23:35.500 I just refer them to you.
00:23:37.240 So we vet them to make sure that you can trust them, that they are the best in your area.

00:24:11.440 Coming on.
00:24:31.380 I want you to know I am very optimistic for the first time.
00:24:47.140 I've been saying, I told you I think two or three years ago, I had been saying this internally, but I didn't want to say it to you until I just really felt like we could do something about it.
00:25:01.920 And I have been feeling for several years, no way out, no way out, no way out.
00:25:06.220 Look at the debt.
00:25:07.520 Look at the axis power is just growing and growing in strength.
00:25:12.600 Look at what is happening.
00:25:13.840 We're giving away our strategic oil reserve for political reasons, and war is on the horizon.
00:25:21.640 And we are getting weaker and weaker.
00:25:23.980 And NATO, that's the allied powers?
00:25:29.760 NATO, NATO is worthless right now.
00:25:34.140 There's no strength.
00:25:35.240 Where's Churchill?
00:25:36.720 Remember?
00:25:37.180 I've been saying that forever.
00:25:38.320 Where's Winston Churchill?
00:25:39.760 Churchill who can see over the horizon and the danger that is ahead and says, to prevent war, you must prepare.
00:25:49.920 You must carry the biggest baseball bat and say, I don't think you're going to move that way.
00:25:55.800 And then have the credibility by drawing red lines and saying, you're not going to cross over that red line.
00:26:04.720 And if you do, I'm going to hit you on the head.
00:26:06.660 And then hit them on the head.
00:26:08.620 And then don't continue to club them to death.
00:26:11.360 Don't try to rebuild them.
00:26:12.680 Just hit them on the head, give them the punishment you said you would give, and then go away.
00:26:20.160 You can do whatever you want with your country.
00:26:21.920 Just don't do that again.
00:26:23.900 Okay?
00:26:24.900 That's what he did in Venezuela.
00:26:26.720 Drew a red line.
00:26:28.220 You're going to get out because you're an illegitimate president.
00:26:31.020 You rigged the election, and you're killing Americans with your drugs.
00:26:36.560 Okay?
00:26:36.840 You're also bringing in communism.
00:26:40.100 You're bringing in terrorists.
00:26:42.920 You're training terrorists in Venezuela.
00:26:45.440 We're not going to do that anymore.
00:26:47.220 We're not going to tolerate it.
00:26:48.300 Stop it right now.
00:26:49.920 Leave right now.
00:26:51.280 Otherwise, we'll come and get you.
00:26:54.180 He drew a red line.
00:26:55.680 He did it.
00:26:56.300 And what?
00:26:56.900 He left the government intact.
00:26:58.920 Not a government we like.
00:27:00.000 He left it intact.
00:27:02.420 He did not destroy everything.
00:27:05.240 And regime change, he did what he promised he would do.
00:27:09.600 And then walked away.
00:27:12.300 That's peace through strength.
00:27:15.320 And I've never seen Reagan had this, but I don't think as strongly as Trump does.
00:27:21.340 Because Trump has proven this over and over and over and over again.
00:27:26.880 All over the world.
00:27:28.220 The people, what he's doing is he is taking Crink, China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea.
00:27:37.520 And he is saying, oh, you really, you wanted to put a little access power together.
00:27:42.640 That's great.
00:27:43.360 And because America was perceived as in decline, people were saying, I got to find a new partner because I don't think I trust America to be the one that's going to stand.
00:27:54.580 So I don't know what's going to happen to them.
00:27:56.340 I think it's, I'm going to bet on China.
00:27:57.920 And so people were betting on China.
00:28:01.040 Trump is coming in and saying, no, don't bet on China, bet on us, because here's what we're doing.
00:28:06.640 Look at what we're doing.
00:28:07.960 We're setting ourselves up to be the strongest country and the strongest hemisphere for the next century.
00:28:17.040 You want to be with us.
00:28:18.960 And he's making those deals.
00:28:21.000 And so the people who were thinking about possibly doing bricks, you know, okay, we're going to start our own currency.
00:28:28.500 Let me ask you this.
00:28:29.300 You want to dethrone American currency.
00:28:32.980 And this is going to happen.
00:28:35.800 Let me say this.
00:28:37.080 I'm not sure if it's going to happen now.
00:28:39.440 He may be able to figure this out to where our currency and things change, but we don't go through Weimar Republic times, okay?
00:28:52.180 If you're going to start your own currency to go against America, what do you have to have?
00:28:56.280 When we got off the gold, what did we do?
00:29:02.280 We went from the gold standard to what?
00:29:06.540 The petrodollar.
00:29:08.400 We based our dollar not on the full faith and trust of America, but on the full faith and trust that you got to buy oil with the U.S. dollar, okay?
00:29:19.240 And we had to make a deal with the Saudi Arabians and OPEC.
00:29:22.760 That's why we were mired in that mess forever.
00:29:26.280 It was a horrible idea.
00:29:28.180 But if you're going to go against that, you either have to have all the oil, which, gosh, look who's taking all of the oil.
00:29:35.860 Look who is cobbling together all of the oil.
00:29:39.680 Look who's making the deals in the Middle East to let them be strong, but you're going to come our way, not towards China.
00:29:46.980 What just happened to the largest oil reserves in the Western Hemisphere?
00:29:52.260 They're now under our control with Venezuela, but we didn't overthrow the country.
00:29:57.140 We just said, you're not doing these things.
00:29:59.800 And if you do, we'll take you out too.
00:30:03.060 You don't have to be our friends, but you're not going to be our enemies, and you're not going to supply our enemies with things, okay?
00:30:11.080 So you can't base bricks on oil, can't be a petrodollar, and if you don't have petrodollars, then you have to have a goldback dollar.
00:30:21.320 Anybody remember reading about the 10,000 tons that Venezuela has still in the ground?
00:30:29.700 Go ahead.
00:30:30.480 Start your bricks.
00:30:31.500 Go ahead.
00:30:32.460 Where are you getting all that gold?
00:30:35.060 Where are you getting it all?
00:30:36.920 Because Venezuela is on our side.
00:30:40.300 Venezuela is not going to dig up all that gold and send it to you, China.
00:30:45.140 So what are you going to back it up with?
00:30:47.120 That's the kind of strategic thinking that he is doing that I don't think people really understand.
00:30:54.760 And I am very nervous because they were sending submarines over for that tanker.
00:31:01.720 Thank God we caught up to that tanker before the subs got there.
00:31:05.840 But we are doing things that are very dangerous, very dangerous.
00:31:11.440 This is, put on your big boy pants.
00:31:13.620 We all can say the Western civilization is on the brink of collapse.
00:31:20.920 But if you truly believe that, and I do, what are you going to do about it?
00:31:26.060 You're going to eat around the edges?
00:31:28.280 You're just going to pick on the edges and go, I'm going to fix this little thing over here.
00:31:31.780 And I'm going to, we're going to take out the dictator that is sending cocaine over our border.
00:31:37.680 That's not how to do anything.
00:31:38.820 Not very long.
00:31:39.620 You need to fundamentally change everything if you're going to save the West.
00:31:45.780 And that's what he's doing.
00:31:46.840 But to do that, you're going to break a lot of eggs.
00:31:51.680 This is right now.
00:31:52.940 We are in a good situation.
00:31:55.760 I think and I hope we're in a good situation because the world is confused.
00:31:59.620 He's breaking all of the, he's not traveling down the highways that everybody's like, ah, he's going to come up here and he's going to turn left and then he's going to make two rights and then he's going to turn left again because that's the way it works.
00:32:13.940 He's not doing that.
00:32:15.080 So all of our allies or all of our, some of our allies, all of our enemies, and especially those that were on the fence are like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:32:23.780 I don't know where he's going here.
00:32:25.540 I'm not sure what he will do.
00:32:27.100 And so everybody is pausing and especially because of the, because of the success our military has had and an overwhelming, almost like Israel, when they started, you know, the beepers went off and you're like, what the, when Ukraine went and took those tanks out and the airplanes with the drones, everybody was like, wait, everything's changing.
00:32:54.100 No, no, no, no, no, from what I understand.
00:32:57.840 And Jason, are you listening?
00:32:59.400 Can you come on?
00:33:00.500 From what I understand, that's, that was baby stuff compared to what we've just done in Venezuela.
00:33:06.720 Is that true?
00:33:08.400 Yeah.
00:33:08.600 The, the Venezuela operation, I'm, I'm looking at all the different analysis from it and everyone is freaked out right now.
00:33:16.580 Everyone is, even our own analysts are saying, how the heck did we do?
00:33:21.400 Yeah.
00:33:21.560 How did that happen?
00:33:22.340 And if you are someone that is, you know, one of these countries that, you know, rely on Russia for your security or you have a guarantee of security from Russia or China, all of that is off the table right now.
00:33:37.040 It means nothing and everyone is scared.
00:33:40.620 There's deterrence right now, just in that right there.
00:33:43.800 People are not knowing how to protect themselves.
00:33:46.600 They're not knowing whether they can continue to listen to Russia, continue to listen to China, everything.
00:33:51.320 I mean, it's a completely different game today.
00:33:53.640 He also is, he's fighting to win.
00:33:57.020 I've never seen an American president fight like this ever in my lifetime, ever.
00:34:02.320 He is, I think he's going to be remembered as, assuming this works, this could go horribly, you know, by tomorrow, this could all fall apart.
00:34:14.840 But assuming this works, he's going to be remembered as a refounder.
00:34:19.920 He is going to be the guy that relaunched America.
00:34:23.580 And I want you to know, only if he remains constitutional.
00:34:31.060 Yesterday, you can find it at glenbeck.com, George AI, it was, you know, constitutionally, where was this Venezuela thing?
00:34:39.580 You should watch it.
00:34:40.400 And I watched some of the comments, some people, you know, because it was on YouTube and people were like, oh, yeah, I see, Glenn Beck doesn't care about the Constitution.
00:34:46.820 His George AI is saying all of this stuff like, oh, Trump is the greatest.
00:34:51.900 Did you even listen to it?
00:34:53.000 Because it doesn't even know who Trump is.
00:34:55.160 And that's not what he said.
00:34:56.820 He said, you have to balance, is this in the national interest?
00:35:01.920 And it looks like it was in the national interest, but then constitutionally.
00:35:06.800 And if it violates the Constitution, it cannot be done.
00:35:10.600 And the last 40 seconds of that George AI is like listening to George Washington.
00:35:17.920 He's not taking Trump's side.
00:35:19.600 He's not taking anybody's side.
00:35:21.440 He's taking the side of the rule of law.
00:35:24.240 And he says clearly, if you violate the rule of law, if you violate the Constitution, then we have nothing.
00:35:32.740 We are not America.
00:35:34.460 We're not worth saving.
00:35:36.560 You're building something new.
00:35:38.200 So no violation of the Constitution.
00:35:41.600 And that's where I stand.
00:35:43.500 So far, he hasn't done that.
00:35:45.780 He pushes those edges, but he hasn't violated it.
00:35:50.060 He has put us in dangerous situations, but they've worked out well.
00:35:54.240 And so far, his batting average on military stuff is remarkable.
00:36:01.040 I mean, think about it.
00:36:02.120 Since Vietnam, show me the president, show me the military, you know, over a year's period that has been where he has, where any president has been up back against the wall with so many possible World War III, everything we're dealing with.
00:36:23.080 If Ukraine, that could go to nuclear war, Iran could go to nuclear war, North Korea, China could go to nuclear war.
00:36:32.760 All of these things that we've been saying, I haven't thought about being vaporized since I was eight.
00:36:39.260 And everything he has done so far, so far, has taken us from the brink, pushed us all the way there, and then worked out in our favor.
00:36:52.620 I've never seen anybody with that batting average before.
00:36:54.900 It doesn't mean that he might not get up one day and then strike out and, you know, we're all vaporized.
00:37:02.600 But so far, if this works, I mean, look at this.
00:37:07.160 This is why Iran is so important.
00:37:09.600 I've been saying to you why Venezuela was so important.
00:37:12.620 It is in our national interest as long as we don't violate the Constitution.
00:37:16.500 So is Greenland, which I hope to get to today.
00:37:19.800 But Iran, what's happening with Iran, we're not collapsing it.
00:37:25.000 We're just not sending them pallets of cash.
00:37:28.460 And we've taken their biggest threat to the world away, their nuclear weapons program.
00:37:34.440 We've taken that away.
00:37:36.200 Israel did the rest of the work.
00:37:37.980 And then we've cobbled together a coalition in the Middle East that also don't like Iran, and they're Arabs.
00:37:46.240 And so they're putting pressure on it.
00:37:48.880 China's been discounted because of the energy, the oil supply.
00:37:54.240 Just that alone is going to cripple them.
00:37:56.980 The rare earth minerals, we've taken away their monopoly on some of these things.
00:38:02.760 Russia.
00:38:03.780 Russia's bogged down in Ukraine.
00:38:06.460 I'd love Ukraine to be solved and peace there.
00:38:09.340 But they are not as strong as they used to be.
00:38:11.900 They're not perceived even to be the military that we all perceived them to be.
00:38:16.620 But they're relying on whom for all of their drones?
00:38:22.600 Iran.
00:38:24.540 Who is left to supply oil to China?
00:38:31.020 Iran.
00:38:31.540 If Iran falls, you've significantly impacted China, and you've significantly impacted the war machine of Russia.
00:38:41.700 Just Venezuela and Iran.
00:38:44.580 Those two dominoes falling can change the standing of the West entirely.
00:38:54.180 Entirely.
00:38:55.060 It's a very dangerous game we're playing.
00:38:58.960 But there's a chance that America and the West survives if this guy wins.
00:39:06.480 We should all be rooting.
00:39:08.500 I don't care how you feel about them.
00:39:10.040 We should all be rooting that this strategy works.
00:39:13.200 And praying that it works.
00:39:17.500 Because if it fails, we all lose.
00:39:19.360 The entire West loses.
00:39:21.760 All right.
00:39:22.280 More in just a second.
00:39:23.900 One of the hardest parts about personal safety is finding out, you know, finding something that you'll actually keep with you.
00:39:29.020 Not something that ends up locked in a drawer because it's too big, too heavy, you know, too complicated to deal with.
00:39:33.820 Makes you feel weird.
00:39:35.200 You know, I've often thought, if I was standing there in a 7-Eleven and there was a robbery going on, and somebody had a gun, and they were pointing it at the cashier, and I had my gun on me, would I pull my gun?
00:39:46.820 I'm a really good shot.
00:39:48.740 But would I pull my gun?
00:39:50.500 I don't know.
00:39:51.640 I don't know because there would be that hesitation in me if I kill him, what happens?
00:39:59.460 I've just escalated where it might not, he might just leave the store.
00:40:04.580 So what did I do?
00:40:07.820 Berna, I can carry, and I know for a fact.
00:40:10.540 I'm in a 7-Eleven, and I see somebody with a gun.
00:40:12.760 I see somebody harassing, you know, doing whatever.
00:40:15.780 I'm absolutely launching tear gas right into that guy's face.
00:40:19.120 Absolutely doing it.
00:40:20.240 He'll be down on the ground for 45 minutes, you know.
00:40:23.300 Oh, it was a mistake.
00:40:24.380 Sorry, dude.
00:40:25.440 Sorry.
00:40:26.200 But nobody's dead.
00:40:27.940 Berna.
00:40:28.620 Have one.
00:40:29.360 I have one for me and every member of my family.
00:40:31.780 They're all over 18.
00:40:32.880 It's legal in all 50 states.
00:40:34.460 No permits, nothing else.

00:40:48.340 Glenn Beck.
00:40:50.240 So I've noticed something about the way most of us eat.
00:41:02.420 It's not that we don't care about the nutrition or the things we're putting into our bodies.
00:41:07.020 It's that we're exhausted by it.
00:41:08.660 So every label contradicts the next one and every healthy option comes with, you know, the fine print.
00:41:14.800 And by the time you've read the ingredients, you've already lost your appetite.
00:41:18.860 That's why I appreciate health code.
00:41:20.820 It cuts through all the noise.
00:41:22.200 It is not trying to be trendy, not trying to be flashy.
00:41:25.780 It is built around one simple question.
00:41:28.560 What actually supports your metabolism instead of working against it?
00:41:32.080 Health code was created by Dr. Ben Bickman.
00:41:34.720 He's a metabolic scientist who spent years studying why so many people feel tired and foggy and stuck, despite, honestly, the the idea that they're trying to eat better.
00:41:44.860 The answer, more often than not, comes down to blood sugar and insulin and the kind of fuel that we're giving our bodies every day.
00:41:51.660 Health code is a nutritionally complete meal shake that is designed with the science in mind.
00:41:56.460 And it is high in protein.
00:41:58.040 It is rich in healthy fats.
00:41:59.460 It is very low in carbs.
00:42:01.160 It is, you know, there's no sugar added to it or anything like that.
00:42:04.660 You're not riding the energy roller coaster that comes with a lot of meal replacements.
00:42:08.560 And it supports metabolic health and gut health and brain health all at once without relying on artificial junk or empty calories.
00:42:15.480 So check it out.
00:42:16.540 ShakeSavings.com is where you go to get it.

00:42:39.040 I made strategic partnerships as this new venture with Torch on research.
00:42:45.960 Ryan Morrow in his team is one of them.
00:42:48.480 We've tripled the size of our research team.
00:42:50.580 We're doing a special in March on the Islamatization of America and the West.
00:42:56.260 As we do our research, some things are too big to hold for that special.
00:42:59.840 Something very important was found.
00:43:01.880 We want to not hold it for the book.
00:43:04.640 We want to hold it and give it to you next.
00:43:07.060 And we'll be giving it to the government today.
00:43:09.220 That exclusive with Ryan is coming up in just a minute.
00:43:12.120 And it is very important that you hear it and hear it now.
00:43:16.140 We'll be giving it to you next time.
00:43:46.120 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
00:44:09.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:14.840 Glenn Beck is on.
00:44:18.160 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:20.420 We are doing a deep dive special in March, I think it is, on what's happening with the Islamists here in America.
00:44:32.340 How far, how advanced is this disease in America?
00:44:36.000 It's a lot farther along than you thought.
00:44:38.600 And, you know, unlike, I've always hated when people are at the White House and they're like, you know,
00:44:46.220 and I saw the president doing blow off of a hooker's belly in the Oval Office.
00:44:52.080 But I didn't say anything.
00:44:53.900 I'm saving it for my book.
00:44:56.060 I'm like, that might be something important that you should have told the American people while it was happening.
00:45:02.040 That is our way of doing these specials.
00:45:04.920 As we are going in, we are finding information.
00:45:08.620 And I'm going to break some news with Ryan Morrow here in just a second.
00:45:12.540 He's one of the guys we're partnering with on doing research.
00:45:16.420 He has uncovered something that we don't feel comfortable holding until March, you know.
00:45:21.440 But we can get more subscribers if we hold it.
00:45:24.180 Yeah.
00:45:24.880 And we might have terrorist activity if we do hold it.
00:45:27.820 So I think we're going to release it.
00:45:29.080 We're releasing it to you.
00:45:30.280 And the White House will have this information.
00:45:32.540 By this afternoon, it is being placed in the hands of the White House as well and, you know, also DOJ.
00:45:42.220 It's important information.
00:45:44.000 Ryan's going to join us here in just a second, actually 60 seconds.
00:45:47.740 Sleep is one of those things you don't, you know, think about when it's working, you know.
00:45:52.140 And you can't think about anything else when it's not working.
00:45:55.520 You go to bed tired.
00:45:56.560 Your brain keeps running.
00:45:57.880 Your body never really settles.
00:45:59.140 And you wake up feeling like you missed something important overnight.
00:46:01.620 You did.
00:46:02.020 Sleep, sleep, organization.
00:46:03.920 When you sleep, your body, your brain doesn't sleep.
00:46:06.860 That's why you dream.
00:46:07.800 It's trying to make sense of everything.
00:46:10.080 You're processing during the day.
00:46:12.260 If you're like me, you're moving at such a rapid pace.
00:46:15.540 It's not putting things in the right filing cabinets.
00:46:18.660 When you're sleeping, that's like, okay, all right.
00:46:21.720 He left a messy desk.
00:46:23.140 I got to file all these things in the right places.
00:46:25.820 That's really important for you, your body to restore and for you to be able to work the next
00:46:31.940 day and function as a human being.
00:46:35.160 If you ever have problems with sleep and you don't like feeling drugged in the morning,
00:46:40.160 I can't take something because I can't feel drugged in the next morning.
00:46:43.020 You need Relief Factor.
00:46:46.800 Relief Factor has come out with Z Factor.
00:46:50.820 And Z Factor will help you sleep.
00:46:53.580 Go right now.
00:46:54.320 800-4-RELIEF.

00:46:57.400 ReliefFactor.com.
00:46:58.920 Have your new year.
00:47:01.340 Start rested.
00:47:03.000 Fall asleep and stay asleep with Z Factor at ReliefFactor.com.
00:47:08.080 Let me bring in Jason, our head researcher.
00:47:10.620 Jason's been doing research for me for, what, 10 years now?
00:47:13.300 Yeah.
00:47:13.620 Okay.
00:47:14.120 And he's military and former military intelligence.
00:47:18.740 He's just a great researcher and put a great team together.
00:47:22.520 And we have uncovered a lot of things in our 10 years together.
00:47:27.200 One of the reasons why I changed my relationship with the Blaze, you can still see the show
00:47:33.740 every day on Blaze TV, but we have added 50% more information to the show.
00:47:41.420 I have been frustrated with a load of commercials that we have to do as podcasts.
00:47:47.780 Broadcast, we have to pay for the transmitters and everything else and the local stations.
00:47:52.600 So they have to have that.
00:47:54.080 But on podcast, we don't.
00:47:55.640 And so we just ran all these extra commercials and I hated it.
00:47:59.560 There's not enough time in the day for me to tell you everything that's going on.
00:48:03.440 So we've, in those commercial breaks, Jason now is filling in and giving you deeper information.
00:48:10.780 And if you're on, is it Facebook today?
00:48:13.480 Facebook today, the whole three-hour show is on Facebook.
00:48:17.180 All three hours.
00:48:17.740 But you can go to glennbeck.com all for the whole month.
00:48:22.320 It's free.
00:48:22.860 You don't have to give a credit card for a 30-day trial or anything.
00:48:25.540 It's just free.
00:48:26.840 Just go to glennbeck.com.
00:48:28.740 Click on the little radio towers.
00:48:30.680 Hit watch and, you know, click the little arrow and you'll be able to watch the show
00:48:34.540 and see what Jason is doing.
00:48:36.340 Can I say you want to be on glennbeck.com?
00:48:39.100 I just got finished to the first hour talking to this audience and they are definitely keeping
00:48:44.140 me on my toes.
00:48:44.720 This is the most informed audience.
00:48:47.800 They're brutal.
00:48:48.060 Oh my gosh.
00:48:48.840 Never bluff.
00:48:49.700 They're brutal.
00:48:50.380 They know.
00:48:51.540 Amazing.
00:48:51.960 Yeah.
00:48:52.560 But anyway, so one of the reasons why I started all of this and changed my daily schedule is
00:48:59.920 because I want to produce so much more information for you because it's incredible what's happening
00:49:06.300 in the world.
00:49:07.500 But I also want to go deeper on things.
00:49:10.140 And so we've taken our Wednesday night special and we're spending all of that time on weekly
00:49:15.820 research for the radio show and what we do on.
00:49:19.520 And I hope you've heard the difference that just this week on the amount of time that we're
00:49:23.860 spending on the radio show to get this really right and dialed in for you.
00:49:27.060 Um, but also we want to spend the time to find the deep stuff, not just the stuff that
00:49:34.700 everybody can report on, you know, on Fox news or CNN, but the stuff that really matters
00:49:40.500 and go deep.
00:49:41.540 So you understand it and you see what we believe is there.
00:49:47.680 We'll be able to prove it to you.
00:49:49.680 So we have partnered and almost tripled our research, uh, staff and budget.
00:49:56.560 And we've also partnered with people, uh, like Ryan Morrow, who is really amazing.
00:50:02.260 He is the Morrow Institute director.
00:50:04.340 He's a counterterrorism expert and he's helping us do research on our first special, um, on
00:50:10.960 the Islamization of America and the West, because gang, if we do not pay attention to Islamism,
00:50:20.260 you're seeing it beginning here in New York, you're seeing it in Detroit, you're seeing
00:50:25.500 it in the Somali community in Minnesota.
00:50:28.260 It's happening.
00:50:29.720 It's bad in Texas.
00:50:31.460 And if we don't understand that and take it seriously, it'll be lights out.
00:50:36.960 So that's our first special in March.
00:50:39.220 However, we don't hold things back.
00:50:42.600 If I don't care about ratings or money more than I care about the Western civilization and
00:50:47.700 our country.
00:50:49.240 So Ryan found something and he's like, Glenn, I think this is really dangerous.
00:50:53.520 And I'm like, we got to expose it.
00:50:55.920 He's like, glad you said that.
00:50:57.160 Cause I think so too.
00:50:58.700 Um, we needed to break this news today and not wait for the special.
00:51:02.960 And Ryan is here to tell us what he found and he's, he's, he's giving this information
00:51:07.960 to the white house and to other officials in the administration today, but you're hearing
00:51:12.860 it here first, Ryan.
00:51:14.640 Welcome.
00:51:16.140 Hi, Glenn.
00:51:16.860 Thanks so much for having me on.
00:51:18.020 You bet.
00:51:18.540 You're an incredible researcher and gosh, just, just this is so important.
00:51:23.720 I, I can't wait to see what you got coming for the show.
00:51:27.500 Um, but anyway, tell us what you found that needs to be released to the American people
00:51:32.700 today.
00:51:34.000 Sure.
00:51:34.560 So what was known prior to today is that there was a man and woman in Gaza who were killed
00:51:40.620 in June, 2024, because they were holding three Israeli hostages.
00:51:44.540 The Israelis came in, had to kill the two Hamas operatives, the man and the woman.
00:51:48.520 Um, and then it became known, uh, that the man was an official writer, uh, at the time
00:51:54.420 called a correspondent for a website called Palestine Chronicle.
00:51:58.280 Palestine Chronicle is basically the same thing.
00:52:01.900 It's like the public face of a nonprofit organization, uh, based in Washington state
00:52:06.680 called the people media project.
00:52:08.840 And so the freed Israeli hostages sue them.
00:52:12.620 Um, and their defense was, well, he's not really correspondent.
00:52:16.080 He's a contributor because they changed his title after this happened on their website.
00:52:19.940 And they said, even though he was writing for us actually two to three times a day after
00:52:24.640 October 7th, uh, it was on a voluntary basis.
00:52:27.660 So we, you can't prove that we actually gave him money.
00:52:31.160 And so I, and, uh, in working with your team went through the website and what we found was
00:52:38.400 really interesting.
00:52:39.740 Uh, they boast about an event that they held in Gaza, um, ostensibly just to give free hair
00:52:45.240 cuts for Palestinian children.
00:52:47.300 And this is an article written by that, that man who is an official writer.
00:52:51.460 And he talks about his wife, who the woman who was killed in the raid, um, doing this
00:52:57.160 event for the Palestine Chronicle.
00:52:59.100 Uh, and they refer to her essentially as a staff member.
00:53:01.960 They say, this is her, uh, our initiative coordinator for the event.
00:53:05.740 Our staff put on this event and they slip up enough that they actually say funds for this
00:53:12.100 initiative was raised from personal donations by Palestine Chronicle editors.
00:53:17.660 Now, what does that mean?
00:53:19.640 That means money passed from that Washington state based organization, the Palestine Chronicle
00:53:26.380 editors to the wife of this guy, uh, of this main hostage holder who she was also involved
00:53:34.680 in there.
00:53:35.120 So their defense of, well, our writer, yes, was holding Israelis hostage and writing for
00:53:40.620 us while holding them hostage, but he can't prove that we gave them money.
00:53:43.340 Well, we found in their own words, they gave money to his wife.
00:53:47.880 That is as far as I can tell, illegal is illegal to knowingly pass money to Hamas operatives.
00:53:54.440 And by the way, the husband, and they knew this at the time because of the Facebook interactions
00:53:58.980 was a publicly identified spokesperson for Hamas's ministry of labor.
00:54:03.400 So, I mean, it doesn't get more solid than that.
00:54:08.500 And we are, uh, busy right now mapping out, um, the connections of this organization of
00:54:14.380 the head of it, uh, Ramzi Baroud, um, because this leads, uh, all sorts of other organizations,
00:54:20.540 including one in Turkey, uh, led by Sammy al-Aryan, who was one of the top Muslim Brotherhood,
00:54:28.040 Palestinian Islamic Jihad leaders, a professor in Florida who was deported shortly after 9-11.
00:54:33.380 So this, this shows that this group, yes, they're connected to Hamas, but they're actually
00:54:37.440 part of this broader Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad connected network
00:54:43.880 out of Turkey.
00:54:46.200 Oh, and I also need to mention that the, uh, chief editor of Palestine Chronicle, uh, at
00:54:52.460 least used to be, maybe still is, uh, a non-resident scholar at the University of California,
00:54:57.700 Santa Barbara.
00:54:58.900 Wow.
00:54:59.380 Oh, so, um, Ryan, this is, we have not been willing to say some of us have, um, you certainly
00:55:11.940 have for a long time.
00:55:13.420 Um, we've tried to say the things that are true and everybody has dogpiled and said Islamophobia,
00:55:20.420 Islamophobia.
00:55:20.920 I think because of the Trump administration, those days aren't just over where you can say
00:55:27.840 something that is true and is not Islamic.
00:55:31.300 I don't care about Muslims.
00:55:33.260 I care about is Islamists.
00:55:36.200 That's who I care about.
00:55:37.620 The ones who use Islam as a political power and want to have Sharia law.
00:55:43.200 Those are the dangerous ones.
00:55:45.360 That's not radical.
00:55:46.940 That's political Islam.
00:55:49.560 Um, and do you feel that the administration, because I'm sensing they are, do you feel the
00:55:57.200 administration is serious about these things?
00:56:00.880 And we're going to start seeing these not just exposed, but people being deported, uh, institutions
00:56:09.460 being shut down and this where that we actually take this serious as it, because I believe
00:56:16.700 we are in a war against Islamists.
00:56:19.560 Um, are we starting to deal with it that way?
00:56:22.820 Do you think?
00:56:24.660 I certainly believe so.
00:56:26.320 Um, and from a few different angles to your earlier point, um, actually, since I was a
00:56:32.240 teenager, I started doing this when I was 16 professionally.
00:56:34.640 That's when I was first hired.
00:56:36.060 Um, I based it on the idea that civilians could be almost like an intelligence counterpart
00:56:41.520 to the federal state and local agencies.
00:56:44.140 And, and so, um, I've put together a civilian intelligence network ever since then, back in
00:56:50.400 2002.
00:56:51.400 Um, so I could see the impact that things like this actually have.
00:56:55.100 So it's not something we have to just say, well, is the administration going to do this
00:56:58.700 or that?
00:56:59.440 Like you, you can play an active part in it.
00:57:02.140 And I think most people don't understand that your audience does because they are obsessed
00:57:06.220 with research.
00:57:06.780 As I can tell every time I'm on your show, the emails I get.
00:57:11.480 Um, but so this is very impactful.
00:57:14.440 This is equipping the administration when the will is there to do, to take action.
00:57:19.420 Uh, civilians can provide it.
00:57:21.380 It's not just a matter of saying, oh, well, we got the right people in power.
00:57:23.760 Now let's just sit back and watch like, no, you've got to be a active part of it.
00:57:27.220 And by the way, some of my best sources, the best informants I've had deep inside some
00:57:32.280 of these groups were Muslims who came to me.
00:57:34.880 So, uh, you're absolutely right that it's not about fighting Muslims.
00:57:38.640 It's because some of my best allies have been Muslims.
00:57:41.000 Um, and to prove your point that yes, the administration will act specifically on the
00:57:47.000 stuff that you and I put together, uh, look at what has happened since, uh, we released
00:57:52.620 our investigation into George Soros' network financing with over $80 million into domestic
00:57:58.720 terrorist groups and pro-terror groups.
00:58:00.260 Within three business days, the New York times reported that the Trump administration had
00:58:05.560 essentially launched an investigation of George Soros' network as a result of what we did
00:58:11.240 together.
00:58:12.260 And that's already having effects.
00:58:14.100 Even if you're not hearing about it publicly, because, uh, we were actually attacked for that,
00:58:18.960 um, in one media article that I thought was comical because it was basically saying how bad it
00:58:24.660 is that these allegations are out there because these groups like Soros and them are complaining
00:58:28.760 that they're spending so much money on lawyers to make sure they're in compliance with the
00:58:32.200 law, but there's no pretext to go after them.
00:58:36.780 Like, yeah, yeah.
00:58:37.660 Shame on us.
00:58:38.380 We made you spend money to make sure you're following the law.
00:58:41.160 Now, you know what it's now, you know what it's like to be a business owner in America
00:58:44.380 for everybody else.
00:58:46.300 All right.
00:58:46.840 Back with Ryan in just a second.
00:58:48.140 First, let me tell you about a relief factor.
00:58:50.260 Sometimes pain hits you so gradually you don't even notice it at first.
00:58:53.140 You just adjust how you sit, how you stand, how you move through your day until one day
00:58:56.480 you realize you've been negotiating with your own body for a long time.
00:58:59.420 Relief factor is not about masking that problem or muscling through it.
00:59:02.720 It is about addressing one of the most common causes of everyday pain, and that is inflammation.
00:59:07.880 It's a daily supplement designed to be part of your life, not a quick, quick fix.
00:59:11.820 Uh, you reach for when you're in panic, uh, you take it consistently every day over weeks.
00:59:17.500 And when you do, people start to notice movement doesn't come with the same resistance.
00:59:21.380 It used to stairs are easier.
00:59:23.000 Mornings are looser.
00:59:23.680 The day doesn't feel like a series of small calculations about what might hurt.
00:59:27.920 Relief factor, 100% drug-free targets inflammation that causes pain.
00:59:31.060 So you move better, feel better, and actually enjoy life again.
00:59:33.600 Try the three-week quick start for just $19.95.
00:59:35.940 Go to relieffactor.com or call 800-4-RELIEF.
00:59:38.860 Let's see if you're next getting out of pain.
00:59:40.500 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:59:42.100 Relieffactor.com.
00:59:43.160 10 seconds.
00:59:43.680 Station ID.
00:59:44.120 So, Ryan, let me talk to you about the Palestinian Chronicle.
00:59:59.040 And that, that's, that is the organization that this guy was writing for, correct?
01:00:04.060 Uh, that's right.
01:00:05.000 Yep.
01:00:05.140 Okay.
01:00:05.620 And the wife was working for.
01:00:06.880 Right.
01:00:07.140 Anyway, um, they have a podcast, uh, called The Floodgate, and it debuted in February.
01:00:15.880 What, what is this podcast?
01:00:18.660 Why is Floodgate?
01:00:20.680 Sure.
01:00:21.640 Uh, Floodgate is, uh, basically a reference to the October 7th attacks because those who
01:00:26.480 support it, they kind of hint at it by referring to it as a legitimate military operation.
01:00:31.360 And it'll say Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, meaning Operation Jerusalem Flood.
01:00:36.140 So, when you see these guys making, like, weird references to the flood, and like, oh,
01:00:40.120 let's flood New York City for this protest, that, it all comes from that.
01:00:44.420 It's, it's a wink to their supporters that most people wouldn't realize.
01:00:47.620 Um, but to show the interconnected elements of all this, when it debuted in February, uh,
01:00:54.040 their guest was a pro-Putin activist, almost certain Russian agent.
01:00:58.180 He's being, he's being investigated for it now, and convicted pedophile, Scott Ritter,
01:01:03.240 the former UN inspector that some people, uh, might remember from under the Bush administration.
01:01:07.880 He was a big anti-war protester, um, but now he's much more openly, uh, like, he goes to
01:01:14.020 Russia and talks about how great Putin is, and he cheers Hamas and Hezbollah.
01:01:17.740 So, what we have found on a broader level is a, like, a central node for the, what I call
01:01:24.960 the global seditionist movement, where all these different ideologies kind of come together
01:01:28.980 and work together, and, uh, this group that we have exposed, um, and I think given very
01:01:35.720 strong evidence of illegal activity for, uh, is at the center of that, and so there, there's
01:01:41.660 more to come on this, um, that we aren't releasing today, but there's definitely much more to come
01:01:46.640 just from this one central node that we found, not to mention everything else that, um, we've
01:01:51.020 found from working together.
01:01:52.140 Um, let me, uh, let me ask you something, and it's unfair to, you know, have put, put
01:01:57.080 you on the spot like this, so feel free to say, I don't, I don't know, um, but I have
01:02:01.800 been wondering what, what is China and Russia spending in a, in, in the United States to,
01:02:10.260 uh, save Maduro and also Iran?
01:02:14.720 I mean, if Iran falls, they are in real trouble.
01:02:19.140 Um, do you have any information or any, are you seeing any influence here in the United
01:02:25.180 States on those two topics that you can give any insight on?
01:02:30.040 Oh yeah, for sure.
01:02:31.320 So I, the dollar amount is obviously hard to come by.
01:02:34.380 It's certainly millions of dollars.
01:02:35.860 We know that just from one nonprofit called the People's Forum, uh, that was really instrumental
01:02:40.900 in sparking the post-October 7th protests and, and riots actually.
01:02:45.100 Um, and so that, that's connected, like, like this is publicly known, the New York Times
01:02:51.100 report on it, uh, someone that is usually in China, um, and does work with the Chinese government
01:02:57.240 on propaganda.
01:02:57.740 Um, so the nonprofit sector is very much a harbor for the incitement of terrorism, the facilitating
01:03:06.060 of terrorism, the type of stuff that if it was going on in Iran, we would say that state
01:03:11.400 sponsorship of terrorism, but you do it in the nonprofit sector of America and they call
01:03:17.380 it charity.
01:03:18.740 And yeah, let me ask you, we only have about 45 seconds.
01:03:22.380 Um, the, the money in Somalia, have we been actually able to trace that back to more than
01:03:29.160 corruption, but to Islamists?
01:03:31.640 Uh, from what I can tell, uh, certainly definitely proven going to Al-Shabaab, um, in Somalia.
01:03:39.120 Um, the question is to what degree that whole scheme is in Islamist thing, or it's a crime
01:03:43.820 thing.
01:03:44.320 Right.
01:03:44.580 And then you have people that are elements within there, um, that, that then shift it
01:03:49.000 in those directions.
01:03:50.320 Um, that's sort of something that we're going to be looking into, um, and the Morrow Institute,
01:03:54.960 that basically what we're trying to do is take the research that your audience does, um,
01:04:00.220 and, and basically weaponize, weaponize your audience, hopefully, um, so that their research
01:04:05.100 can make an impact and through their volunteer as, and through small donations, we can do
01:04:10.460 more like this.
01:04:11.340 Ryan, thank you so much.
01:04:12.380 Uh, Ryan Morrow.com, Ryan M A U R O Ryan Morrow.com.
01:04:17.580 Uh, he has joined us, uh, at Torch for our first special, a, an epic special.
01:04:24.860 It will be happening in March, uh, on Torch at glennbeck.com.
01:04:29.740 You can find out all about it at glennbeck.com.
01:04:32.920 Uh, thank you, Ryan.
01:04:34.880 More in a minute.
01:04:35.580 Thank you.
01:04:54.860 You know, most people don't think about heat.
01:04:57.940 You don't think about the things that you need every day until the power goes out or a storm
01:05:02.480 drags on longer than expected.
01:05:03.820 And it's too late to start problem solving.
01:05:05.760 Then you're just looking for anything that works.
01:05:07.980 That's where the Vesta heater from my Patriot supply makes so much sense.
01:05:12.340 It's where it comes in and plays a real role.
01:05:14.400 It's simple.
01:05:14.960 It's self-contained.
01:05:15.880 It doesn't depend on electrical grids to do its job.
01:05:18.500 No electricity, no extension cords, no complicated setup, just real reliable heat.
01:05:23.640 When everything else goes quiet.
01:05:25.800 Um, one thing I like about the Vesta heater is, uh, how practical it is.
01:05:29.680 It's designed to heat and enclosed spaces safely, efficiently, but it also is something that
01:05:35.840 is built so you can cook on it in case you need to do more than heat.
01:05:39.360 You actually need to warm up some food, you know, because, you know, the storm went on longer
01:05:43.440 than you thought, no matter what the conditions are, if they're not ideal, the best part is
01:05:47.760 right now, you can get the Vesta and a bunch more preparedness gear as free gifts.
01:05:52.620 All you have to do is order the winter survival kit from my Patriot supply.
01:05:56.540 Just go to my Patriot supply.com slash Glenn.
01:05:59.280 See everything that is included.
01:06:00.600 The offer is not going to last long.
01:06:01.780 So go to my Patriot supply.com slash Glenn.
01:06:04.300 Go there.
01:06:04.900 Now my Patriot supply.com slash Glenn.
01:06:10.280 We're going to talk a little bit about another special that has just been released at
01:06:14.740 glennbeck.com on capital controls.
01:06:17.720 We talk about that and your economy coming up.
01:06:21.420 You know, about three years ago, I started feeling like I need to make a huge change in
01:06:49.820 my life, you know, my biological clock started to tick.
01:06:53.320 I'm like, I can't have babies.
01:06:55.100 Well, I guess I can, but I might, you know, I might get hit by a bus in 15 years, in the
01:07:00.160 next 15 years.
01:07:01.140 And so I'm done.
01:07:02.300 I'm kind of clocking out here.
01:07:04.040 And when that hit me, I, you know, I started really prioritizing things differently in my
01:07:08.160 life.
01:07:08.420 And one of those things is the show and what I do every day.
01:07:12.640 And I wanted to spend my time solely focused on finding ways to impact you and your mission,
01:07:21.460 whatever that is, with information, education, history, et cetera, et cetera.
01:07:28.560 And we're releasing something today at glennbeck.com.
01:07:32.440 It is one of our, one of our specials, right?
01:07:36.660 We're calling this one a deep dive.
01:07:38.380 Deep dive.
01:07:38.620 Okay.
01:07:38.860 So this is a deep dive on something that you don't, you've not heard before called capital
01:07:43.880 controls.
01:07:44.980 Let me set this up in a relatable way.
01:07:47.140 Let me play something that Momdani's new tenant director, what she was saying just a couple
01:07:55.740 of days ago, you might've heard her say this about how white people are going to have a
01:08:00.360 a different relationship with property rights.
01:08:03.540 Listen to this.
01:08:04.360 I think the reality is, is that for centuries, we've really treated property as an individualized
01:08:12.000 good and not a collective good.
01:08:13.500 And we are going to, and transitioning to treating it as a collective good and towards a model of
01:08:20.860 shared equity will require that we think about it differently.
01:08:24.660 And it will mean that, um, families, especially white families, but some POC families who are
01:08:31.020 homeowners as well, um, are going to have a different relationship to property than, than,
01:08:37.420 than the one that we currently have.
01:08:38.940 That is one of the most amazing things.
01:08:40.920 Hello, Stalin.
01:08:41.760 That's one of the most amazing things I have ever heard.
01:08:45.500 Okay.
01:08:46.280 So can they do that?
01:08:49.480 You know, I don't, I don't know.
01:08:51.320 We're going to talk to Carol Roth here about several things, uh, coming up in a few minutes,
01:08:55.320 but what she's talking about is what's called a capital control.
01:09:00.540 Now, I don't know if you can do it at the city level, but capital controls are something
01:09:05.440 that you would hear on CNBC.
01:09:07.660 And I explain what those are because this, this deep dive that you can get right now at
01:09:14.400 glennbeck.com.
01:09:15.160 I think it runs about an hour.
01:09:16.240 It's a really good documentary that I did.
01:09:19.460 Um, and, uh, it, it was motivated by my grandfather saying to me, he lived through the depression.
01:09:29.640 Son, if we would have just known what the rich people knew, we would have been able to protect
01:09:36.500 ourselves and maybe not have been in the same situation that we were in during the great
01:09:41.600 depression because the rich people, they knew things that we didn't know.
01:09:45.880 Okay.
01:09:46.780 And nobody shared that.
01:09:47.940 And that has stuck with me my entire life.
01:09:50.960 And, and so I've been looking for things.
01:09:53.540 What do the rich people know?
01:09:56.240 You know, rich people are buying a cars, you know, for a Ferrari just sold for what was
01:10:02.860 it?
01:10:03.020 $65 million recently.
01:10:05.400 Art is going for $200 million.
01:10:08.560 The prices of things in, in, in tangible items going through the roof, property farms through
01:10:17.840 the roof.
01:10:18.740 That's because somebody knows something that you may not know they're getting out of cash.
01:10:25.600 They're getting out and getting into gold or Bitcoin or land or art or collectibles or whatever
01:10:33.200 it is because they know capital controls are coming.
01:10:37.320 So let me just play a real quick, uh, promo clip on capital controls.
01:10:43.380 That is, you can find it right now at glennbeck.com.
01:10:46.900 It's all free, commercial free.
01:10:48.520 You can find it now at glennbeck.com.
01:10:50.820 Here it is.
01:10:51.480 What do capital controls mean?
01:10:54.680 When you think of capital controls, it's pretty much exactly like it sounds.
01:11:08.200 Instead of going into the free market and having the market make decisions on things like money
01:11:14.960 and where it's flowing, it means that a government and or a central bank is making those decisions.
01:11:23.220 Let me tell you a story.
01:11:24.900 Say you're going to a theater and not just any theater.
01:11:27.380 This, this one's very famous.
01:11:28.660 You've been coming here your whole life.
01:11:30.220 The seats are plush.
01:11:31.300 The lights are always perfect.
01:11:32.840 The shows are the best money can buy.
01:11:35.180 But you go this night and something feels different.
01:11:38.340 Something feels off.
01:11:39.420 The ushers are acting nervous.
01:11:43.020 The cast keeps glancing from backstage.
01:11:46.580 Maybe you've heard rumors.
01:11:47.880 Just whispers at first.
01:11:48.860 Something is wrong.
01:11:49.780 I don't know.
01:11:50.200 Maybe the building isn't sound.
01:11:51.680 The foundation is cracking.
01:11:53.500 And then suddenly, you hear it.
01:11:56.940 Click.
01:11:58.920 It's quiet.
01:12:00.300 But it is unmistakable.
01:12:02.460 The sound of the exit doors locking.
01:12:05.580 They are the sound of a nation realizing the show is over and locking the doors before too many people try to leave at once.
01:12:20.640 That is what capital controls are.
01:12:23.480 So, this is important that you know this information because you're going to hear it.
01:12:29.540 And unless you understand what they're saying, unless you're looking for these things, it's all going to be couched in, we're doing this for national security.
01:12:42.580 We're just doing this to balance this or that with China, blah, blah, blah, whatever it is.
01:12:47.900 But capital controls don't come into play when people are worried.
01:12:53.740 It comes into when massive changes are coming.
01:12:57.000 For instance, Mamdani.
01:12:59.140 That's a massive change.
01:13:01.340 That's a capital control.
01:13:03.000 Because of who you are, you can no longer spend your money the way you want to spend it.
01:13:09.140 You're going to have a different relationship.
01:13:11.340 And the government's going to tell you what you can do with your money.
01:13:15.100 And, you know, that's why I'm not in New York.
01:13:18.460 We lived in New York.
01:13:19.460 We got out of there because I saw this coming and don't want to be a part of it.
01:13:24.440 You don't want that to happen.
01:13:26.620 I wouldn't live in New York.
01:13:29.160 But, you know, hey, to each his own.
01:13:31.920 Go ahead.
01:13:32.580 Maybe it won't happen.
01:13:33.500 But I don't like the odds of being trapped there.
01:13:37.520 And New York, you watch.
01:13:38.980 New York, as it will start to collapse, will try to trap the money in New York.
01:13:44.100 It will trap it in New York City.
01:13:45.940 It will trap it in the state because it can't hemorrhage all that.
01:13:50.520 You can't have everybody moving out to Florida and Texas or wherever because then what happens to the state and the city?
01:13:57.140 You can't fund it anymore.
01:13:58.500 So they trap all that money there.
01:14:01.500 This is the way that they do it so you know what the signs are.
01:14:06.160 And then in the second part of the special, we went to experts on this, economists, and then we put it also through three different AIs.
01:14:17.480 And we asked, what are the odds?
01:14:20.400 We asked the human experts.
01:14:22.300 We asked the AI experts.
01:14:23.840 What are the odds in one year, three to five years, five years plus?
01:14:29.000 Honestly, we looked at the results, and it was terrifying because AI and human were exactly alike.
01:14:40.160 It was like they were working off each other's sheets.
01:14:44.520 And what came back, and I put it on the chalkboard, is staggering.
01:14:50.520 It is staggering.
01:14:51.500 You need to know about this information.
01:14:55.360 And these are called deep dives, and we'll be doing these a lot throughout the year.
01:15:03.440 It's, you know, I've stopped doing the Wednesday night show because it was just too, I had to produce it every Wednesday.
01:15:11.860 And so sometimes we were like, I don't know, what is the topic?
01:15:14.500 Instead, sometimes I'll go into a week, and I'll be like, this topic, this topic, this topic, and we can create these deep dives of deep, quick understandings of something that is very important, and we don't have to produce it.
01:15:30.460 We produce it when it's right, and we give it to you when it's time.
01:15:36.260 And if you're a member of The Torch this month, it's free.
01:15:40.200 I'm not asking you for a credit card or anything just to try it out.
01:15:43.120 I just want you to see what we're doing, and it's at glennbeck.com.
01:15:47.120 That's called Capital Controls.
01:15:48.720 Is that in the new section?
01:15:51.020 So if you go to the watch page right now on glennbeck.com, it's featured right there on the watch page, and it's under the specials tray for right now.
01:16:01.780 We'll reorganize all the names later as we produce more content.
01:16:05.640 Yeah, and we're really grateful to everybody who is watching us on glennbeck.com and helping us.
01:16:10.680 You know, I said to the insiders today, because we've done something for the insiders during the radio program, and it is, it's, you're going to play a very important role.
01:16:23.620 You already are.
01:16:24.560 We're listening to you, and we're building these things for you.
01:16:28.700 And I'm saying this to you.
01:16:33.660 I feel called to this work.
01:16:36.200 I believe I'm in my last decade, decade and a half of being able to do these shows for you.
01:16:43.520 And I want to serve you.
01:16:46.060 I want to make your life more understandable.
01:16:48.920 I want to cover the things that you're trying, you're wrestling with.
01:16:53.360 I want to help you on those things.
01:16:55.940 And so I'm depending on you to help us make this better.
01:17:00.760 I rely on your feedback.
01:17:02.820 But also, we want to know what is it you want to understand.
01:17:06.460 Now, there's a couple of things.
01:17:07.380 We've got a couple of suggestions.
01:17:08.660 I have to just share these real quick.
01:17:11.780 This is so funny.
01:17:12.740 Marlene wrote in, and Marlene, I love you.
01:17:17.060 She says she's a long-time, you know, subscriber to the Blaze, et cetera, et cetera.
01:17:20.800 I've been with you forever.
01:17:22.420 But she said, here's my suggestion.
01:17:25.980 Replace your podcast, this, the radio show.
01:17:29.200 Replace your podcast with lighter conversations between you and Stu and your team.
01:17:34.960 Stop all the heavy talk and the lectures on what's happening in the world and the history lessons I'd like to see turned off.
01:17:46.700 And I'm like, have they met you?
01:17:48.760 No, I don't.
01:17:50.320 Marlene, we're not going to do that.
01:17:51.860 This might not be the show for you.
01:17:54.060 Would you consider converting to Buddhism and changing your gender?
01:17:58.120 Would you throw that in?
01:17:59.080 No, it's.
01:18:00.020 I will try to inject more shallow conversations with Glenn.
01:18:03.360 Yeah, thank you.
01:18:03.780 Thank you.
01:18:04.360 I appreciate that.
01:18:05.200 No, I.
01:18:06.400 Okay.
01:18:07.260 So, I'm sorry.
01:18:08.300 We're not going to do that.
01:18:09.340 There's another one that I saw that I just don't think we're going to do.
01:18:13.120 Keith wrote in and said, please back away from your praise for Abraham Lincoln and show him for the tyrant that he was.
01:18:25.200 Keith, I don't think I'm going to back away from my support of Abraham Lincoln.
01:18:28.940 You know, this is weird because this comes up a lot in a very small circle.
01:18:34.520 I've heard, usually Southerners, and they look at Abraham Lincoln as an absolute tyrant, and he did do some things that, you know, in a civil war, you probably wouldn't want to do outside of a civil war.
01:18:49.580 And I know the South viewed him as a tyrant, but I don't.
01:18:54.480 I really don't.
01:18:55.760 But I thank you for your suggestion.
01:18:59.280 Anyway, there's a lot of great suggestions that we will do.
01:19:02.220 And if you have a topic that you want us to address or you can help us be better to serve you, let us know.
01:19:08.640 You can find all of this information, all of these shows, including I just saw Glenn.
01:19:13.120 I just listened to Days of Ash, which is a series that I wrote.
01:19:16.660 They run about 10 minutes an episode, 10, 12 minutes an episode.
01:19:20.640 Five episodes are out right now.
01:19:22.620 Another five are coming soon.
01:19:24.540 And that's the end of the first season.
01:19:26.240 There'll be 10 episodes in these things each season.
01:19:28.800 The second season is in production now.
01:19:31.380 I'm writing it right now, and it is really good because it gets it's really good.
01:19:35.040 But it's a dystopian, futuristic, you know, story about, you know, dystopian look.
01:19:41.480 More lighthearted content.
01:19:42.620 More lighthearted content, yes.
01:19:44.980 Glenn, I just listened to Days of Ash.
01:19:46.920 Really great.
01:19:47.780 I think it's I unfortunately think it's the way things are going to play out if we don't turn the ship around.
01:19:53.140 Thanks for doing these series.
01:19:54.960 You're waking people up, Aileen.
01:19:57.940 Aileen, thank you so much for listening.
01:19:59.700 I want you to try all of this stuff out.
01:20:01.380 Tell us what you like.
01:20:02.120 Tell us what you don't like.
01:20:03.440 You can find it all now at Glenn Beck dot com.
01:20:05.980 Could you talk a little bit more about raising taxes with red hair?
01:20:09.860 Is that possible?
01:20:11.000 You know what?
01:20:11.700 I'm going to do that right after I do my 10 minute sports, deep sports analysis.
01:20:17.700 Oh, nice.
01:20:18.320 Every day, yeah.
01:20:19.240 First, most people don't realize how much how much power is in the small recurring decisions that you make every month, especially the ones that feel automatic.
01:20:27.200 Your phone service is one of those.
01:20:29.160 It's a perfect example.
01:20:30.180 It runs in the background in your life.
01:20:31.740 You're you know, it's you just you're making phone calls and texting and using social media, et cetera, et cetera.
01:20:37.760 But it's always running in the background.
01:20:40.100 And you probably never stopped to question, you know, what, where I'm paying an awful lot of money for this.
01:20:47.000 Where's that money going?
01:20:48.160 What do they actually believe?
01:20:50.140 Do I agree with this company on really important things?
01:20:54.400 Like, you know, if they want to save horses, fine, save horses.
01:20:58.140 You know, that's great.
01:20:58.960 And I applaud you for that.
01:21:00.620 Who doesn't love horses?
01:21:01.900 But when you're like, you know what?
01:21:03.140 I want to fundamentally transform America.
01:21:05.460 Or, you know, I really believe Mom Donnie is the guy or or, hey, more abortions, the better.
01:21:12.920 I really don't want to do business with you.
01:21:15.500 And that's kind of you're in business with a lot of people, a lot of companies like that.
01:21:19.320 Is your cell service one of those companies?
01:21:22.080 Patriot Mobile is the answer to that cancer.
01:21:24.440 It's Patriot Mobile dot com slash back.
01:21:26.920 You're going to save money.
01:21:27.960 They're the only Christian conservative mobile phone company service, I think, in the world.
01:21:33.660 And they stand by those values and they actually support the things you support.
01:21:39.400 Patriot Mobile.
01:21:40.160 They're completely transparent.
01:21:41.580 You're going to save money every month and you're going to work with an American company that believes in the same things that you do.
01:21:47.260 Patriot Mobile dot com slash back.
01:21:48.900 Patriot Mobile dot com slash back or call 972 Patriot.
01:21:52.380 Use the promo code back.
01:21:53.360 Make the switch today.
01:21:54.200 972 Patriot Patriot Mobile dot com slash back.
01:21:57.960 Where you're from doesn't matter nearly as much as how you treat folks.
01:22:01.960 It's Ted Cruz.
01:22:03.300 I mean, like, this dude has to be knocked over the head, like, hard.
01:22:08.940 More Glenn Beck next.
01:22:27.960 We're just we're just talking about capital controls.
01:22:41.560 And I said to Stu, do you remember?
01:22:44.640 I think it was in 2006.
01:22:46.160 I found this story in the Wall Street Journal and it was like on page A21, a little teeny story.
01:22:52.380 And I think it was John Conyers who had either suggested or passed the fastest law where if you renounced your citizenship in America, you still had to pay taxes on 50 percent of everything that you made, even outside of the country for five years.
01:23:10.920 Totally reasonable proposal.
01:23:12.920 Right. And I remember coming into Stu and I'm like, they're trapping money.
01:23:15.600 They're trapping money.
01:23:16.600 They know something I don't know.
01:23:19.320 And you're going to see that you watch California, New York.
01:23:22.820 They're going to start trapping money.
01:23:24.640 You'll move away and California will say, yeah, you still have to pay taxes for the next five years because whatever reason they'll try to do that.
01:23:33.220 And please don't move to Texas or Florida.
01:23:37.720 Find some other place.
01:23:39.100 I hear New Jersey is wonderful this time of year.
01:23:42.240 I don't think that's going to help you very much, though.
01:23:43.780 Well, maybe you can all gather together in New Jersey and prove to the other states that you're going to fix that one and not make it like New York or California.
01:23:52.600 It's a training wheel state.
01:23:54.660 What you need.
01:24:03.220 Swipe the flame.
01:24:26.000 Pass it on.
01:24:28.700 Crank the game.
01:24:31.000 Let back us on.
01:24:32.540 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
01:24:52.060 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:55.980 Glenn Beck is on.
01:24:57.900 Hello, America.
01:24:58.760 We have a lot to get to this hour.
01:25:00.400 I want to talk to you about how to watch what is going on in Iran because it is game changing if that regime fails and falls.
01:25:11.700 And it looks like it's still gaining power.
01:25:16.440 But it's it's not obvious that it is going to fall this time.
01:25:20.620 But it it might.
01:25:22.300 And I want to show why that is important and what to watch for in the news so you can be aware of of really what's happening.
01:25:30.580 The other thing is we have to talk about Greenland and what is happening with Greenland.
01:25:37.140 And we'll do that.
01:25:38.520 But Carol Roth joins us because Mom Donnie is going to make sure that every New Yorker can get into, you know, the World Cup, even though the World Cup isn't in New York at all.
01:25:56.280 I don't know how he would get the tickets for all the New Yorkers.
01:26:00.980 And he's also talking about at least one of his people talking about a new relationship with private property.
01:26:08.680 That sounds like, I don't know, Stalin.
01:26:13.480 You will own nothing.
01:26:14.600 Carol Roth, the perfect guest.
01:26:16.000 It is.
01:26:16.720 Carol Roth joins us.
01:26:18.200 The author of You Will Own Nothing.
01:26:19.540 And you will like it.
01:26:21.360 Former investment banker, like she likes to say, a recovering investment banker.
01:26:26.200 Carol Roth joins me on capital controls.
01:26:29.400 The things that are headed for New York in 60 seconds.
01:26:32.880 First, let me tell you about relief factor.
01:26:34.060 There's a difference between having pain and being limited by it.
01:26:37.600 A lot of people don't realize they've crossed that line until their world starts really getting much smaller.
01:26:43.400 You skip things.
01:26:44.380 You modify plans.
01:26:45.500 You move through the day a little more carefully than you used to.
01:26:47.920 Even if you don't say it out loud, it might take you a while.
01:26:53.240 And then you realize, wow, my whole life has changed.
01:26:56.040 Relief factor is designed to do and address what is happening under the surface, not just help you push through another day.
01:27:04.060 It supports the body's response to inflammation, which is the root of most everyday kind of discomfort and pain.
01:27:10.600 And we just accept that as being normal.
01:27:13.000 You know, it's, I'm just getting older.
01:27:14.980 No, no, no.
01:27:16.600 No, this isn't a take it and forget it product.
01:27:19.760 This is a daily habit because it is important to let the body and enable the body to do what the body is supposed to do.
01:27:28.500 So you can have, you know, a longer life out of pain.
01:27:32.920 Relief factor has a 100% drug free way to target inflammation that causes most of the pain.
01:27:40.380 So you can move better, feel better, and actually enjoy life again.

01:27:59.240 Carol, I've released the documentary that we did on capital controls today.
01:28:08.840 It was released at 8 o'clock this morning.
01:28:11.360 Thank you for your help on that.
01:28:13.080 It's nice to have a stable of experts like you that really get it and can explain what's going on.
01:28:19.720 I wanted to have you on today because what's happening in New York is quite remarkable, and I think it is a form of capital controls.
01:28:31.560 When a government says, you're going to have a different relationship with private property, isn't that a capital control where they're saying you can't spend your money the way you want to spend your money?
01:28:43.360 Yeah, I mean, certainly in terms of what a layman would consider a capital control, you know, economists have a very strict definition, but there are what we consider to also be de facto capital controls.
01:28:56.420 And certainly what is happening in New York is reminiscent of, you know, any time socialists and communists come to power.
01:29:05.960 And it's one of the things that's kind of this weird triangle that's going on right now is it also reminds me of what happened in Venezuela.
01:29:15.720 If you think about Venezuela and the fact that they were producing 3 million barrels a day of oil and they were a very prosperous country.
01:29:26.280 And once the socialists, the communists, whatever you want to call them, theists took over, productive capital no longer makes investments.
01:29:36.660 And so what's the logical outgrowth of that?
01:29:39.420 Well, we can see it.
01:29:40.460 Their output is down at this point to less than a third of that.
01:29:44.740 And their infrastructure is so decayed that if we even wanted to help them get back to where they used to be, it's going to take around $100 billion in investments and quite some time, probably five years or longer, to bring it back to where it was before.
01:30:02.140 So when you think about what's happening in New York and you hear things like rent controls and we're going to put these controls in place, landlords can't charge as much money to make things more affordable.
01:30:15.300 Well, the same thing is going to happen.
01:30:17.320 There is no financial incentive to make the investment in that property, which means everything decays, which means you have a bunch of slums that, you know, maybe are theoretically affordable,
01:30:29.840 but nobody actually wants to live in them.
01:30:32.740 So no matter what they try to dictate, when they're pushing these controls down our throats, it doesn't take into, it doesn't have the same outcomes as the free market would.
01:30:45.420 And it has these terrible impacts and effects, which is why we all lean into capitalism and free market principles and what's made us so prosperous.
01:30:54.960 So, so, so Carol, can the, can a mayor and city council do what they're talking about doing?
01:31:04.060 I mean, you know, you look at, look at Seattle, boy, they've screwed that place up.
01:31:09.600 California screwed that place up, but he is talking about full fledged collectivism, communism, really.
01:31:17.780 Where the state is saying, you can't live there because of who you are or whatever, and we're going to give that property to somebody else.
01:31:26.160 I mean, can he do that?
01:31:28.980 Well, you know, there's the common sense side of me and there's the reality, you know, of what is happening in the world.
01:31:36.340 And the common sense would say, no, of course not.
01:31:38.940 There's laws, there's a constitution that stuff like that can't happen.
01:31:42.260 But we've seen the constitution flouted.
01:31:46.440 We've seen the general principles of the country was founded on our rights and protections flouted so many times that they can certainly try.
01:31:55.580 And I'm sure there are probably workarounds and things that they have, you know, in statues where they're going to say, well, you know, this wasn't up to code or this wasn't, you know, following this rule.
01:32:07.280 So we're not actually really seizing it.
01:32:09.500 We're just saying you're not following the rules.
01:32:11.180 And going back to what I said, you know, if you are somebody who owns a property that, you know, it has rent control on it and you can't make the investment because you're not getting the market rent on it.
01:32:23.520 And all of a sudden they say, well, you're out of the code.
01:32:25.760 You know, you have all these fines.
01:32:27.320 Are you going to make that investment?
01:32:31.300 Probably not because you're not going to get a return on it.
01:32:33.620 You could use your capital more productively somewhere else.
01:32:35.980 So then they say, well, you're in violation of these fines.
01:32:39.320 So we're now going to come in as the government and we're going to take this over.
01:32:43.200 We've certainly seen things that look like that all over the place.
01:32:46.860 You know, can it be challenged?
01:32:48.100 Maybe.
01:32:48.860 But can it happen?
01:32:50.320 I mean, it certainly looks like it's a possibility.
01:32:52.880 So as if these things happen, New York is just going to go into a cesspool and you're going to see big money.
01:33:03.180 I mean, the money that's not out now, it's going to flee because it's not it just doesn't want to be sucked into all of that.
01:33:11.340 And I can't imagine yesterday we played a clip of Mom Donnie talking about this and he was talking about how, you know, if if you're if you're a landowner, you are you know, you own apartments or you're renting things out to people that, you know, there's all kinds of new rules coming your way.
01:33:28.860 And I thought I would never own a piece of property in New York.
01:33:33.160 I would get out of there as soon as I can, because it's not going to be stacked even fairly, not not just in my favor.
01:33:40.160 It's not even going to be stacked fairly for a capitalist.
01:33:44.020 And at some point, if you drive enough people out, the city and the state will have to try to protect itself.
01:33:52.280 And that's, again, where capital controls come in and they'll say you can't take your money out or you have to pay taxes for the next five years if you're moving out.
01:34:01.620 Won't won't they try to trap money there?
01:34:05.220 Well, you're seeing this happen real time in California.
01:34:08.900 There are so many things to talk about in that little piece.
01:34:11.460 So let me just start with the last one.
01:34:13.480 They're trying this in California.
01:34:15.480 They're trying to put in place a wealth tax, which we've talked about many times, certainly something like, you know, seven or nine countries in Europe have abandoned since it was such a bad idea because capital is mobile.
01:34:30.560 But they're trying to make it retroactive that if, you know, you are a citizen as of, I think, was the end of 2025, beginning of 2026 of California, that you can't try to get around this rule.
01:34:42.200 Well, we're going to come after you anyway to try to take your wealth.
01:34:46.840 So these are not theoretical things that could happen.
01:34:51.160 These are proposals that are being put on the table, that are being led by people like Ro Khanna in California, who is a representative from Silicon Valley.
01:35:02.100 His constituents are the tech bros, are the billionaires, are the people who put him in place.
01:35:09.280 And then he is turning around and saying, well, guess what, you know, at the core, at the core, I'm still a communist, whether you put me in place or not.
01:35:17.780 So we're seeing that in California.
01:35:19.680 I can tell you, being from Chicago, we've seen the impact of this real time, not certainly directly capital control, but the bad policies that have driven out billionaires like Ken Griffin.
01:35:32.000 And the whole that that has left, not only in terms of his tax revenue, his philanthropy, but all the jobs that went with them, is this money that is no longer here as part of the tax base.
01:35:44.860 And so the middle and working class now are having to pick up that difference.
01:35:49.840 And people are shocked at how much they're having to carry, because the people with money can take it somewhere else, and they're left holding the back.
01:35:58.560 I actually saw somebody say, how come he's not spending money in Chicago anymore?
01:36:03.340 Because you drove him out.
01:36:05.420 Literally.
01:36:05.760 You drove him out.
01:36:06.680 He'll take care of some other community.
01:36:08.540 You didn't want him there.
01:36:10.460 But you certainly want his money.
01:36:12.360 It's amazing.
01:36:13.120 Yes, and it's the fact that there is this level of economic illiteracy, and that if you went up in front of a bunch of people or even members of, you know, the state representatives, and you say, okay, you know, which would you rather have, you know, 90% of a pie or 50% of a pie?
01:36:33.040 And they would actually give you that answer without knowing how big the pie is, because they don't fundamentally understand that we're looking at trying to, you know, have less of a burden for everyone and grow the pie and make it a wonderful place to live.
01:36:47.820 And these policies, you know, New York is one that's staggering to me, Glenn.
01:36:52.720 If you think about it, this is Wall Street.
01:36:55.620 This is the financial capital of the United States.
01:36:59.280 This is where the Fed monetary policy comes from.
01:37:02.500 This is where all the banks are.
01:37:04.780 This is the center of money in the United States.
01:37:10.160 Now, all of a sudden, has a bunch of these communists who are proposing communist policy.
01:37:17.240 It's not that easy to just pick up the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and relocate that.
01:37:23.940 Good.
01:37:24.180 Let's abolish it.
01:37:25.380 I'm sorry.
01:37:27.820 All right.
01:37:28.700 Amen to that.
01:37:29.780 Amen to that.
01:37:30.460 But but this is going to get really ugly, really ugly, really ugly.
01:37:33.960 And you'll see it move to Texas and Florida.
01:37:36.080 Mark my words.
01:37:37.000 Let me just play this.
01:37:38.300 This is from Donnie just a few days ago.
01:37:40.420 Listen to this.
01:37:41.100 And I am also proud to announce that I will be signing an executive order directing HPD to work alongside the Department of Buildings, the newly invigorated mayor's office to protect tenants, the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection and our newly created office of mass engagement to hold rental ripoff hearings across all.
01:38:05.800 We will we will hold these rental ripoff hearings across all five boroughs within the first hundred days of this administration.
01:38:20.480 Thank you.
01:38:21.520 Thank you.
01:38:22.420 New Yorkers will be invited to participate and to share the realities that animate their daily lives.
01:38:29.260 I want these hearings to expose the ugly underbelly of our city.
01:38:34.500 It wouldn't be bad if you were actually going after crime and and things like that.
01:38:43.700 But when you have a communist agenda, that is that's nothing but a show trial of capitalism.
01:38:49.840 It's just taking capitalism down more with Kara Roth here in just a second.
01:38:54.220 First, let me tell you about American financing.
01:38:55.980 NMLS 182334 NMLSConsumerAccess.org
01:38:59.940 APR for Rates in the Five starts at 6.799 percent for well-qualified borrowers.
01:39:03.780 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
01:39:07.440 You know, most people, you know, don't get into financial trouble by being reckless.
01:39:10.620 They get there slow, you know, just rising debt.
01:39:14.240 You take care of the house.
01:39:16.340 You can handle the car.
01:39:17.640 You cover for emergencies.
01:39:18.920 Little by little high interest debt starts stacking up more and more and your breathing room gets smaller and smaller.
01:39:24.160 And American financing, you know, what they do is help you step back and actually look at the whole picture, not just the next bill that is due.
01:39:32.960 And they're a family owned company that specializes in helping people consolidate high interest debt and restructure their finances in a way that makes sense.
01:39:41.080 You know, for real life, they're not talking about, you know, refinancing your I mean, unless it's right for you refinancing your whole loan, your home loan.
01:39:48.500 They're saying, well, let's take some of that and take a new loan out, maybe at six percent for ten thousand dollars out of your what you have saved in your in your home.
01:39:58.960 Leave your regular mortgage alone and then take that six percent interest and pay off those credit cards that are costing you 20 percent interest.
01:40:08.500 Knock that down to six percent.
01:40:09.820 That gives you all kinds of breathing room.
01:40:11.860 They'll find something that's right for you.
01:40:14.200 And if there's not something right for you, they'll let you know.
01:40:16.540 I don't have anything.
01:40:17.500 It's all your decision.
01:40:18.400 And, you know, whatever you decide goes.
01:40:21.080 They're not they're not motivated.
01:40:22.900 They're not getting paid by the banks if they put you into a loan.
01:40:25.520 So they're working for you.
01:40:26.740 Call American Financing now.
01:40:28.660 America's home for home loans.
01:40:30.000 It's American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net, AmericanFinancing.net.
01:40:38.760 Ten seconds, station ID.
01:40:41.860 Carol, let's talk a little bit about Venezuela and Iran.
01:40:57.880 And if you want to throw in Greenland, we can.
01:41:01.960 What Donald Trump is doing, I think, is remarkable, if it works.
01:41:07.900 He is rebuilding an entirely new system.
01:41:14.160 So the Western Hemisphere is the is the the sphere of influence for the next hundred years.
01:41:21.400 He's rewriting everything and he has put oil and rare earth and all of the things we need to not only survive, but to thrive in the next century and to hold down Russia, China, Iran, North Korea.
01:41:37.860 It's quite remarkable, at least the way I'm seeing it.
01:41:42.360 Would you agree with that?
01:41:43.800 I would 100 percent agree.
01:41:46.180 This is one of the greatest things that is coming out of the Trump administration.
01:41:51.380 You know, the Biden administration weakened America's position on the world stage and really didn't pay any attention to the national and economic security issues that we had in terms of our dependence on China for things like shipbuilding and making defense weapons and the like.
01:42:10.660 And under that administration, there was further encroachment into our not only our hemisphere, but also into these countries that have these strategic resources.
01:42:22.640 So when anybody says, oh, well, you know, the U.S. just cares about oil.
01:42:27.900 Well, you know, what do you think it is that Iran cares about or Russia or China?
01:42:33.140 Everybody's there for the same reason.
01:42:34.980 So the fact that they're paying attention here and taking steps to shore up the national security and the economic security, it's similar to what happened in Argentina when we talked about previously the swap lines and making sure that we got China's influence out of that region.
01:42:54.240 Now that's happening in Venezuela.
01:42:55.760 And it sounds like it's spreading to other areas as well.
01:42:59.080 So I'm I'm looking at this.
01:43:01.100 I mean, just with the gold in the ground in Venezuela, we don't own it.
01:43:05.760 But if Venezuela is on our side, not China's side, you have a harder time building bricks.
01:43:10.620 You have a harder time doing a gold back currency, you know, and controlling all of it because you've now lost the gold that's in the ground in Venezuela.
01:43:19.920 America has it.
01:43:20.880 So there are little things like that that I think nobody is really talking about that is is putting the brakes on destroying the American dollar and strengthening us to some degree on that.
01:43:37.540 But it also I'm worried that, you know, we're we're backing these countries into a corner where pretty soon they're going to figure out, holy cow, Donald Trump is playing to win.
01:43:49.940 And, you know, when somebody's back is up against the wall, they become very, very dangerous.
01:43:56.800 Are you are you concerned about that at all?
01:43:59.720 I think there are a few different ways that this can go and kind of building on what you're talking about, the concerns that you're not only about the gold in the ground, but the fact that China had led tens of billions of dollars to Venezuela that now may not be paid back.
01:44:14.080 I think these potentially could be tools to get China to the table, to come up with some sort of what's been called a Mar-a-Lago accord, you know, a financial reset, because obviously there are a lot of financial issues between the countries as well as with our country.
01:44:32.140 And I think this may be a tool to get everybody to the table and to come to an agreement, because remember, Donald Trump is a business person.
01:44:41.340 He is art of the deal. Negotiations are his strength.
01:44:45.360 And, you know, he's tried some other avenues, but this is another avenue that could get these countries to the table.
01:44:51.860 That being said, these are not necessarily rational actors.
01:44:55.820 So does that mean then all of a sudden we have now put, you know, China taking over Taiwan in play?
01:45:02.660 I think that these are all possibilities, but the hope is that we get more of these countries to the table.
01:45:09.280 Yeah. And with the collapse of or the changing of the guard in Venezuela and the possible collapse in Iran, those are just those two things are significant, significant movement in toward America in a good way.
01:45:28.320 Carol, thank you so much. You can find her at carolroth.com, carolroth.com.

01:45:37.020 You need to watch it.
01:45:38.160 All right. Let me tell you about Rapid Radio's good communication is about timing when you need to, you know, talk right now.
01:45:43.980 A delay of even a few seconds can be the difference between a minor problem and a mess.
01:45:48.480 This is where Rapid Radio separate themselves from everything else.
01:45:51.440 There is no app to open, no dependence on cell service.
01:45:54.020 You press a button and you're talking.
01:45:55.160 I will tell you, I told a story earlier today that Caesar, who works for me, he was up on one of our forerunners up in the mountains up at our ranch, and he, I don't know how he did it, probably drinking.
01:46:08.980 He's usually drunk, but anyway, he drove off.
01:46:12.460 It was very easy to do, drove off the side of this hill, and it's a steep decline, and he ended up with the forerunner upside down in the top of one of the trees.
01:46:22.840 Because there's no cell service.
01:46:25.200 He was stuck there until we said, we haven't seen Caesar in a while.
01:46:29.360 Where's Caesar?
01:46:30.080 And we sent out a search party for him, and that's where we found him.
01:46:33.640 Rapid Radios.
01:46:35.400 That's a great example of Rapid Radios and why we have them at the ranch now.

01:46:59.840 Coming on.
01:47:02.600 This is the Glenbeck program.
01:47:29.600 I want to talk to you a little bit about Greenland, but I want to start in a really unusual place.
01:47:35.940 I want to start with magic words.
01:47:38.740 In fact, one magic word.
01:47:40.980 Abracadabra.
01:47:42.480 You say the magic word, and it happens.
01:47:45.320 Okay?
01:47:45.880 You just have to know what's the magic word.
01:47:47.760 The magic word is abracadabra.
01:47:49.480 Poof.
01:47:50.180 Bunny out of the hat.
01:47:51.340 Whatever it is.
01:47:53.600 Abracadabra is an actual, the root of it is an actual word.
01:47:57.660 It's Aramaic, and I believe some of the roots can also be found in Hebrew, but in Aramaic, it is abracadabra.
01:48:09.300 And, you know, us Westerners, we're all like me.
01:48:13.040 We just mispronounce everything.
01:48:14.420 We're like, abracadabra.
01:48:15.440 That's what he said.
01:48:16.160 But it actually means, and I'm trying to remember this off the top of my head, abracadabra actually means something like, it was created because I spoke it.
01:48:29.920 I spoke it, and it was created.
01:48:32.980 Okay?
01:48:34.300 That's I am that I am.
01:48:36.040 That's the power of God.
01:48:37.500 That's not magic.
01:48:38.620 That's believe it, and it shall be.
01:48:42.880 Okay?
01:48:43.380 That's the way humans work.
01:48:47.420 We are seeing a master magician, if you will, in action every day.
01:48:54.920 Donald Trump knows the power of his words.
01:48:58.540 He knows them.
01:49:00.320 When I have talked to him about his safety, he stops me every time.
01:49:05.760 Don't want to talk about it, Glenn.
01:49:07.020 Don't want to talk about it.
01:49:07.880 Mr. President, I just want to make sure, are we, I don't want to talk about it.
01:49:11.520 He will not put those things out.
01:49:14.340 Believe me, he has others talking about it, but he does not want to put that kind of stuff out in the universe.
01:49:19.940 He believes in the power of thought and the power of words.
01:49:24.560 So why am I telling you about abracadabra?
01:49:27.280 Because have you noticed, he says things over and over again, and they seem to just happen.
01:49:36.240 Couple of reasons.
01:49:38.300 The power of his own words, the power of knowing what I want, saying it, believing it, and then making it happen.
01:49:46.840 Surrounding myself with people who are also believers in what I say, because if we all believe, it will happen.
01:49:53.900 We are a failing empire.
01:49:56.320 We are a crumbling nation.
01:49:58.480 You know what?
01:49:59.240 He never says that.
01:50:00.740 And quite honestly, this week, I don't feel like we are a fading empire or a crumbling nation or a second rate anything.
01:50:07.820 I feel like we are on the verge of, if this stuff works, we are on the verge of being a renewed nation with a hundred year story, completely new story that will be as amazing as the last hundred years.
01:50:23.040 He's speaking it into existence.
01:50:27.460 He keeps speaking something into existence, and that's Greenland.
01:50:33.460 We need Greenland.
01:50:36.540 We need Greenland.
01:50:37.680 Greenland should be a 51st state.
01:50:39.380 Greenland should be a protectorate.
01:50:40.940 Greenland, you know what?
01:50:41.900 We really need Greenland because of their rare earth minerals.
01:50:44.400 I believe we do need Greenland, not as a 51st state, maybe as a protectorate, it would be nice, not by force, not by military, purchase, maybe.
01:50:56.360 You could make everybody, you know, you could offer everybody there $10 million, and what is it?
01:51:01.820 $500 billion, you'd get Greenland and give everybody, everybody, you'd get $10 million.
01:51:09.540 Every citizen gets $10 million.
01:51:12.740 What citizen's going to say no to that?
01:51:15.500 And we're not going to control your country.
01:51:18.260 You can run your country whatever way you want, but you're a protectorate of ours right now.
01:51:24.060 That's a really good deal for them and for us.
01:51:27.100 If we bought it like we did in Alaska at a trillion dollars, it's a very good deal for the United States.
01:51:35.040 It has rare earth minerals and it is strategically placed in such a place that it is essential for us if you are preparing for war.
01:51:46.540 I believe, because this is what history teaches us, as empires begin to become unstable, and we all are,
01:51:54.600 there is, unlike any other time in human history, the Roman Empire is falling, some other empire is coming up.
01:52:01.840 Right now, it should be China coming up as we are declining.
01:52:05.960 That's what everybody predicted.
01:52:07.520 But China made all the same stupid mistakes that we made, you know, financial and everything else.
01:52:13.980 They're not coming up.
01:52:16.880 Everybody's trying to speak that into existence, but it's not true.
01:52:20.080 They're not coming up.
01:52:23.260 But usually what happens is one empire comes down, the other one is rising, and somebody says in the rising empire,
01:52:30.100 you better take them out before this gets ugly because it'll be, you know, their back will be against the wall
01:52:35.820 and they don't want to be a failing empire, so take them.
01:52:38.320 That's what we should see if China is rising.
01:52:45.100 But I don't know if that's going to happen because everyone, for the first time in human history,
01:52:50.540 every nation is collapsing for the same reasons at the same time.
01:52:54.320 But again, if you cobble together enough power and we are weak, you would see Russia, you'd see, what did I say it was,
01:53:05.100 crink China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, crink.
01:53:10.260 You would see that axis power try to take the West.
01:53:14.920 So the best thing you can do is build the arsenal for democracy.
01:53:26.840 That's what FDR did.
01:53:29.760 That's what he said in 1940.
01:53:31.400 We're going to build the arsenal of democracy.
01:53:33.960 We're going to build ships for the rest of the world.
01:53:36.000 We're going to build guns for the rest of the world.
01:53:38.160 You know, when we were training our military in 1939, 1940, we were using broomsticks.
01:53:43.060 We didn't even have rifles for our military, okay?
01:53:46.800 You could bring your rifle in from home to use it and train with that.
01:53:52.220 A lot of our soldiers used their own rifles at the very beginning because we weren't prepared.
01:54:01.800 He is preparing us for a couple of things.
01:54:05.300 A digital war where we are fighting who's going to win AI.
01:54:09.800 A currency war, whose currency is going to be dominant.
01:54:15.420 Who's going to actually be responsible for the financial well-being of at least the Western world.
01:54:24.200 And I think a hot war.
01:54:26.800 And so he is taking all of the assets that we need.
01:54:30.300 Oil, energy, that's coal, electricity, nuclear.
01:54:35.040 All kinds of tech, not just AI, but military tech.
01:54:41.100 Did you see what he said yesterday?
01:54:42.420 He said yesterday, we have a problem with our military industrial complex.
01:54:49.120 It's too slow.
01:54:51.000 Hurry up.
01:54:52.680 He is preparing for any eventuality.
01:54:57.120 And he's carving out not an empire, I don't think.
01:55:02.100 I think he is carving out the Western world and making strategic partnerships like he did with Argentina.
01:55:09.600 We made them a big loan because they were struggling.
01:55:12.780 We're not trying to control Argentina.
01:55:14.880 I don't want to control Argentina, but I want them as an ally.
01:55:18.360 Same with Venezuela.
01:55:19.860 I don't want to run your country, but I want you as an ally.
01:55:23.800 And, you know, Cuba, I don't want you.
01:55:25.600 No communism here, not in this sector.
01:55:30.100 The other reason why I think Greenland wouldn't be as important if NATO wasn't useless.
01:55:39.840 I think he has written off Europe.
01:55:42.940 I have.
01:55:43.760 I don't know about you, but I've written off Europe.
01:55:45.640 Europe's not going to be any help.
01:55:48.340 They're going to be a nuclear armed Islamic caliphate in 10 years.
01:55:54.380 If they don't change their ways, that's what it will be.
01:56:00.680 That's not helpful.
01:56:03.120 Denmark.
01:56:04.580 Denmark's not Denmark anymore.
01:56:07.340 What is Denmark?
01:56:08.700 It is all of these countries are collapsing.
01:56:11.960 They are absolutely delusional.
01:56:14.920 They are becoming a totalitarian European union that is going into a fascistic sort of way.
01:56:21.320 Complete control.
01:56:22.280 Complete anathema to freedom.
01:56:25.320 At least that's their plan with the WEF.
01:56:29.020 And he's written that off.
01:56:30.460 We're not going to be allies with you guys.
01:56:32.220 We're not.
01:56:32.820 You're going to separate yourself from us.
01:56:34.880 We're not going to.
01:56:36.480 And so I don't want you to have all of those strategic reserves.
01:56:40.460 We're willing to buy them from you.
01:56:41.920 We're willing to buy Greenland.
01:56:43.360 We're willing to make them a protectorate.
01:56:45.220 They can run their own thing, but they're not going to Europe.
01:56:47.480 They're coming here.
01:56:50.040 And I'm really torn.
01:56:51.800 We just did a.
01:56:53.880 Jason, do you have the Glenn AI?
01:56:55.940 I do.
01:56:56.680 You want that now?
01:56:57.240 Yeah, go ahead.
01:56:57.720 Let's play a clip of this.
01:56:58.720 This is from today.
01:56:59.440 It'll come out later today.
01:57:00.580 Here it is.
01:57:00.960 Greenland, the icy keystone in America's new strategy.
01:57:07.720 You probably didn't wake up this morning asking yourself,
01:57:10.980 what's going on in Greenland?
01:57:13.460 I get that.
01:57:14.960 But by the end of this episode,
01:57:16.700 you're going to be wondering why we've ignored it for so long.
01:57:21.120 Because what's happening up there,
01:57:22.860 that icy, rugged rock floating quietly at the top of the world,
01:57:27.360 is starting to shape the future of American power
01:57:30.640 in ways that most of us aren't even talking about yet.
01:57:34.980 Okay.
01:57:35.420 This is the topic of Glenn AI.
01:57:38.520 Glenn AI is proprietary technology that we have developed,
01:57:41.940 and I'm spending a lot of money on R&D to make it the premier technology for us, at least.
01:57:49.420 It has 30 years of everything I've ever said, everything I've ever written,
01:57:54.560 and we can internally ask it, tell me about Greenland, what is right,
01:58:02.100 what do you know historically, et cetera, et cetera.
01:58:04.380 And it will produce like a 10-minute podcast for you to give a deeper thing on something
01:58:08.900 I don't have time to record myself, but I look it out.
01:58:12.420 I mean, I actually oversaw that one myself.
01:58:15.440 And that's just giving you a tutorial on what is this argument really about?
01:58:20.920 Why is it important?
01:58:22.060 It goes into a very clear thing that I want to make very clear.
01:58:30.460 None of this matters if we betray who we are.
01:58:34.680 None of this matters if we have all the rare earth minerals and all of the oil
01:58:40.240 and all of the power in the West and everything else.
01:58:43.160 None of it matters if we don't have the Constitution,
01:58:46.480 if we are not a nation of laws, but we're a nation that just says,
01:58:51.120 well, we need it this time.
01:58:52.880 Be very, very careful.
01:58:55.000 No, there are no exceptions to the rules of the Constitution.
01:58:59.920 So I lay out in that these are things we must never violate.
01:59:04.680 These are things he must not do to get those rare earth minerals.
01:59:09.840 And here are some things he can do.
01:59:12.200 Like I said, I think we should buy it.
01:59:15.180 I think we could be a protectorate.
01:59:18.180 But we should negotiate with them.
01:59:22.020 We could buy it like we bought Alaska.
01:59:23.680 And it would be at really almost any price at this point.
01:59:27.080 What's another trillion dollars?
01:59:30.800 Nothing when you have nothing.
01:59:32.560 But we should buy it.
01:59:34.440 It's a great investment if they want to sell it.
01:59:38.300 But we cannot send our military in.
01:59:40.740 We can't take it.
01:59:41.900 It would violate all of our principles.
01:59:43.660 But it is important to the strategy if we want another American century
01:59:51.740 and you want the Western world to survive.
01:59:54.700 Glenn, I have a question.
01:59:56.160 Why do you suppose Greenland and Denmark appear to be more threatened by Trump trying to make
02:00:05.060 Greenland a protectorate than China or Russia invading?
02:00:09.600 I don't understand why they appear to be more threatened by that than actual enemies.
02:00:13.740 Because I think the Western world, especially European, is so far gone and so deeply down the road of fascism,
02:00:34.000 authoritarianism, authoritarianism, you know, no freedom of speech.
02:00:38.000 We've got to control this.
02:00:39.180 That China's model looks much better to them than the messy freedom model because they're collapsing and they know what their solution is.
02:00:51.580 As they collapse, more control, more control.
02:00:54.000 Shut the people down.
02:00:54.980 Corral the people.
02:00:55.980 Don't let the people talk.
02:00:57.040 Arrest the people.
02:00:58.120 All of these things that is in the wheelhouse of China.
02:01:02.880 And freedom is messy.
02:01:05.780 You don't know how it's all going to work out.
02:01:08.480 They're so afraid of losing anything.
02:01:12.360 They will compromise with any.
02:01:14.660 I mean, look at what the king of England now, Charles.
02:01:20.500 He is playing footsie with the the Islamists of England.
02:01:28.960 Do you think the Islamists are going to love the royal family?
02:01:34.000 He's playing footsie with with bringing people in from parts of the world.
02:01:39.980 You know, the reason why Elizabeth survived, why why Queen Victoria survived when all of the others were losing their heads.
02:01:49.500 The reason why she survived is because the English people are different.
02:01:54.700 The culture is different.
02:01:56.540 They they're not they they tolerate an awful lot and they're into their heritage, etc.
02:02:02.200 You you you supplant that you take that and rip that out and you replace it with people of a different culture.
02:02:10.580 They're going to round up the royal family and they will end up like the Romanovs.
02:02:16.160 But they're playing footsies with them.
02:02:18.100 They're they're they're fine with all of it.
02:02:21.160 They don't they're just blind to what history would teach you.
02:02:29.040 More in a minute.
02:02:30.000 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
02:02:31.640 We spent a lot of time talking about big decisions, elections, policy headlines.
02:02:34.880 But much of the leverage in your life comes from the small decisions that you make, the ones that renew automatically in the background.
02:02:41.200 Your phone service is one of those choices.
02:02:43.140 And for years, the industry has suggested you just shouldn't care who you're doing business with as long as your phone works.
02:02:49.560 Just pay the bill.
02:02:50.260 Don't ask questions.
02:02:51.020 And definitely don't expect the trans don't expect transparency.
02:02:55.340 Patriot Mobile takes on a different approach.
02:02:57.400 They built a company around the idea that service and price and principles don't have to be separate conversations.
02:03:02.180 You can have reliable nationwide coverage, straightforward plans and business that's open about what it stands for all at the same time.
02:03:10.780 Your number can stay the same.
02:03:12.460 Your coverage is there when you need it.
02:03:14.000 The only thing that will change is who you're doing business with.
02:03:17.080 And, you know, whether you're OK with having that being a thoughtful decision instead of just default.

02:03:33.940 Glenn Beck is back after this.
02:03:47.080 I'm going to give you a couple of things to chew on.
02:04:02.540 We're watching.
02:04:03.140 We'll have more on it tomorrow.
02:04:04.520 There's an ice-related shooting in Minneapolis.
02:04:06.720 There's a crackdown in Minneapolis.
02:04:08.000 It's going to get ugly there.
02:04:09.740 And also, let me just play some video real quick.
02:04:12.160 This is one of the uprisings in Iran last night.
02:04:18.100 Two cities now have fallen to the protesters.
02:04:21.900 This is major, major.
02:04:26.300 We should be praying for the safety and for the freedom of all of the Persians and all those who live in Iran and want to be free.
02:04:36.800 It's a possibility, and it changes the world overnight if it happens.
02:04:42.160 Glenn Beck is on.
