00:01:26 Glenn Beck is on.

00:01:28 Glenn Beck is on.

00:01:31 Na-na-na-na.

00:01:33 Oh-oh-oh-oh. 0.98

00:01:36 Na-na-na-na.

00:01:39 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.

00:01:47 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:51 Glenn Beck is on.

00:01:53 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We've got a lot to talk about today.

00:01:57 We're going to introduce you to the first half of a poll that is coming out later this week.

00:02:02 It's a little terrifying. It's a new poll that shows the, I think, shocking views of Sharia law in America, especially those under 35.

00:02:13 It is not good news. We are not doing a good job teaching what Sharia law actually is in America.

00:02:23 Also, we have, I have some thoughts on a story that came out of the Wall Street Journal on broken families.

00:02:31 And we'll try to get through that on today's program.

00:02:35 Diesel costs are up again.

00:02:38 The TPUSA saga continues.

00:02:42 There was a report out from UVU on what actually happened with security.

00:02:48 I've got a few thoughts on that one. 1.00

00:02:49 And I think we should start with Iran because Donald Trump has rejected Iran's proposal for peace, and I think he has a good reason for it. 0.95

00:02:58 But there's some other things going on in the world that we need to be aware of, especially when it comes to Sharia law and those who are looking to end the West. 0.95

00:03:07 We'll do that in 60 seconds.

00:03:08 First, let me tell you about real estate agents.

00:03:10 I trust dot com.

00:03:12 Real estate has a language that most people, you know, only have to speak about three times in their entire lives.

00:03:18 You've got escrow, contingencies, comps, earnest money.

00:03:21 You have disclosures and appraisals.

00:03:24 And then somebody starts talking about, you know, days on the market and you're nodding your head like, yeah, of course.

00:03:30 Meanwhile, good real estate agents speaks this language all day long, every day.

00:03:34 And that's just one of the reasons I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.

00:03:37 I wanted somebody to have you in their corner or I wanted them to be in your corner.

00:03:45 That's what it, you know what I mean.

00:03:47 I wanted them. Cut me, Rock. Cut me. I wanted them there so you could be cut. This is all falling apart. Here's what I want you to do. I want you to go to realestateagentsitrust.com. realestateagentsitrust.com. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, they'll help you even in this tough market. realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:04:06 All right, so here's the latest.

00:04:13 Looks like President Trump has said no to any peace plan with Iran.

00:04:21 Why would he do that?

00:04:22 With the price of gas.

00:04:24 Have you gotten gas this weekend?

00:04:26 I did.

00:04:28 $5.54.

00:04:33 Wow.

00:04:34 Okay.

00:04:35 well that's not comfortable uh had the kids up yesterday for dinner up at the house and they

00:04:42 were like dad I don't know if we can afford to come up to the house on Sundays to have dinner

00:04:48 with you have you filled up your tank and I said yeah I have so why would he do this why would he

00:04:54 do this because he believes that um anytime anything that we can do to give them any kind

00:05:02 of funding, they are out. They are out. Iran is now saying that they will, they're prepared for

00:05:11 any war, including one that is a doomsday war. What does that imply? Nuclear weapons? What does

00:05:20 that imply? A doomsday war. They soon are not going to have anything to trade. They only have

00:05:28 a few days left of oil and they are collapsing from the inside now we've heard this before

00:05:33 but they are desperate to make some sort of a deal to keep them alive um besan says i'm confident

00:05:40 there's only 15 million more barrels of iranian oil in the water iran will have nothing left to

00:05:45 trade for anything probably within the next two weeks they're going to make their final deliveries

00:05:50 of oil to china and then they will have nothing left it's an empty set i believe they are feeling

00:05:55 the pressure here, and that's why they wanted a deal. So we'll continue to watch that. I do want

00:06:01 to get into diesel prices. The president is floating the idea that we onshore all of our

00:06:08 diesel, that we don't sell diesel to any other country that takes us off of the global market,

00:06:14 that is going to cause problems all around the rest of the world. I know that we should be

00:06:18 America first, but it is very concerning to me because this is the kind of stuff that Jimmy

00:06:22 Carter would do, and it will only lead to bad things. It will cut the cost maybe by a dollar

00:06:29 for a very short period of time, and then it will get really bad. You just don't want to pull

00:06:35 yourself out of the global market because then all kinds of games are starting to be played.

00:06:41 We'll get into that a little later. There's also a story today in the news about a farmer in an

00:06:46 English countryside who was driving home from a party this last week. She found three vans

00:06:52 blocking a dark country road. She saw the masked men running towards the RAF Fairford, which is a

00:06:59 base the United States Air Force uses. She didn't film it. She didn't post it. She called the police

00:07:05 and then she grabbed her neighbors and she told them, lock your doors. Something's going on.

00:07:10 Less than 25 minutes later, five men were arrested under suspicion of preparing a terrorist

00:07:14 attack. Dozens of homes were evacuated. Bomb teams went through the van. Counter-terrorist

00:07:20 officers were looking for possible links to Iran. And the president said he had had these men under

00:07:26 surveillance and they were looking to do big damage. Apparently there were explosives in the

00:07:32 van. I don't know how we could be watching these men for weeks and then let them get this close to

00:07:37 the uh the air force base but that's the story as of right now same week london police arrested

00:07:45 a man over a suspected plot against a jewish community center in fact several of them israeli

00:07:50 diplomats pro-israeli rallies in germany or in austria also were targeted according to the report

00:07:57 he once guarded the chief of hamas the british gave him asylum he's lived there now for about

00:08:04 10 years. Again, Hamas, asylum, England. Same week, the Telegraph reports that the Palestinians, 0.79

00:08:14 that of the Palestinians, the BBC has identified as journalists, 53 had ties of one kind or another

00:08:24 to Hamas and other terrorist groups. That's an allegation. BBC needs to answer it. The same time,

00:08:30 BBC, same week, ran a story asking whether unpainted fingernails have become a class

00:08:37 issue. 0.99

00:08:38 One beauty journalist, I just have to stop on that one. 0.96

00:08:44 One beauty journalist, whatever, one beauty journalist explained that words like elegant 0.67

00:08:53 and tasteful are often euphemisms for white supremacist standards of beauty.

00:09:00 a man who guarded the head of Hamas

00:09:10 has refugee status

00:09:13 53 men with ties to terror are journalists

00:09:17 five men were arrested trying to blow up an air force base

00:09:22 and the word tasteful is white supremacy

00:09:26 See, I want you to step back here and look at the whole picture here.

00:09:32 Because nobody in Europe is looking at the whole picture, obviously.

00:09:36 Europe is not losing an argument.

00:09:38 It has stopped making an argument.

00:09:41 The West is under attack.

00:09:42 And not because we're weak, because we're lazy, uncomfortable, we're distracted.

00:09:48 We won't even say we're worth saving.

00:09:53 somewhere along the way we were taught and we believe now that we're the bad guys

00:09:58 how's this happen

00:10:02 i'd like to say we've been here before but we've been here before

00:10:07 kind of not really but kind of oxford england it's february 1933 the oxford union the most

00:10:16 famous student debating society in the world the room where future prime ministers learn to argue

00:10:23 At least that's what they say.

00:10:24 I don't know what they're arguing now.

00:10:26 Well, they take up a motion in 1933

00:10:28 that this house will know in no uncertain circumstances

00:10:32 fight for king and country.

00:10:35 It passed 275 to 153.

00:10:39 Now, were the students cowards?

00:10:41 No, they grew up in a country full of empty chairs.

00:10:44 Their fathers and their uncles went to the trenches

00:10:46 and didn't come back.

00:10:48 And they had been told with some reason

00:10:50 that the war was a lie, old men told young ones.

00:10:55 And they were right about the horror,

00:10:58 but they drew the wrong lesson.

00:10:59 They decided the problem wasn't war,

00:11:02 the problem was their own country.

00:11:06 Ten days before that vote,

00:11:07 Adolf Hitler had been sworn in as Chancellor of Germany.

00:11:11 Winston Churchill called it an abject, squalid, shameless avowal.

00:11:16 He wrote later, he noticed in Germany, in Italy, and Japan,

00:11:20 They had seen it.

00:11:21 They had all seen it.

00:11:24 A few weeks after the vote, his own son went back to Oxford

00:11:27 and asked the students to strike it from the minute book.

00:11:29 They voted him down, 751 to 138.

00:11:33 The record stayed.

00:11:34 It's still there today.

00:11:35 Good.

00:11:36 It should stay. 0.75

00:11:39 But six years later, the young men of that generation were in uniform.

00:11:43 A lot of them never came home.

00:11:47 They did fight for king and country after all.

00:11:49 They just started late.

00:11:51 And late is unfortunately the most expensive word in war.

00:12:00 You know, just like in that minute book where they said we're not going to fight.

00:12:09 That's the same thing that's happening on TikTok now.

00:12:12 That's the same thing that's happening on YouTube.

00:12:14 That's the same thing that's happening all over our country.

00:12:17 and the world is looking at it.

00:12:20 We're not interested.

00:12:21 I saw a story from Al Jazeera today

00:12:23 about what was happening in Iran

00:12:25 and Al Jazeera said it's a waiting game.

00:12:29 They think they can outweigh the United States

00:12:32 because the people just don't want war.

00:12:35 That they will...

00:12:36 Wait until you see this poll.

00:12:38 I'm going to give you a hint.

00:12:40 In this poll,

00:12:42 the majority of people

00:12:44 would give up Israel, lock, stock, and barrel. 0.93

00:12:51 Give it up. 1.00

00:12:52 Give it to the Palestinian for a one-state solution 1.00

00:12:55 for cheaper gas. 1.00

00:13:01 The world is hearing us.

00:13:05 The dictators back then and the dictators today

00:13:08 don't read this as a vote of peace.

00:13:10 They read it as permission.

00:13:12 and that's what happens when your enemy watches you debate

00:13:17 whether you're worth defending

00:13:18 and we are debating right now

00:13:21 and I think the debate is damn near over

00:13:24 no, I think America is saying

00:13:27 no, we're not worth defending

00:13:29 and once we're debating that

00:13:32 they stop debating

00:13:35 have we done bad things?

00:13:38 yes, we've done slavery, conquest, empires

00:13:41 that took what wasn't theirs.

00:13:44 I'm talking about the Western culture.

00:13:47 Wars we shouldn't have fought, promises we didn't keep.

00:13:50 Say it plainly. 1.00

00:13:53 A people who can't name their own sins 1.00

00:13:55 can't be trusted with their own strength. 0.97

00:13:58 So why do we have a problem naming our sins?

00:14:01 We need to name our sins.

00:14:03 We have named our sins.

00:14:05 We've recognized our sins.

00:14:07 Now, can we do this?

00:14:09 What nation doesn't have those sins? 0.92

00:14:11 Is Hamas an angel? 0.79

00:14:14 It built miles of tunnels under its own children. 0.99

00:14:19 It sent men across the fence on October 7th to burn families alive, to rape babies. 0.99

00:14:26 The Palestinian Authority pays stipends to families of men who kill Jews. 0.95

00:14:31 I don't see the BBC asking whether their fingernails are problematic.

00:14:35 every people on earth have deep problems

00:14:41 why do we keep expecting ourselves to be perfect

00:14:46 why do we demand that our history is perfect

00:14:49 when no one else's history is perfect

00:14:52 the question is

00:14:56 what do we do with what we have

00:14:59 what did we do with what we had

00:15:03 well here's what we did

00:15:05 We're the civilization that sent its navies to hunt down slave ships.

00:15:09 Did you know that?

00:15:11 We rebuilt countries that just had tried to kill us.

00:15:15 We paid for it.

00:15:17 We flew food into a city for more than a year so it wouldn't have to surrender.

00:15:23 We wiped smallpox off the face of the earth.

00:15:26 We gave away the polio vaccine.

00:15:28 We built the countries where a man can stand up and say the government is wrong

00:15:32 and go home at night and sleep in his own bed without fear of on his door.

00:15:41 And the proof is where the whole world is trying to go. 0.71

00:15:46 Nobody's risking their life to get onto a rubber raft to get into Gaza.

00:15:52 Nobody's waiting 10 years for asylum in Tehran. 0.56

00:15:56 They're coming here. 0.75

00:15:57 They're coming to Europe. 0.95

00:15:58 even the man who guarded the chief of Hamas 0.95

00:16:01 wanted to live in London

00:16:02 did he want to live there for freedom

00:16:05 or did he want to live there because we're doubting

00:16:07 ourselves and he was 0.98

00:16:09 ready to kill us

00:16:10 we've done more 0.96

00:16:13 good for more people than most

00:16:15 of human history combined and that's not

00:16:17 arrogance that's simple

00:16:19 non-common core math

00:16:21 but let's not kid ourselves there's a campus not far from you or me that would

00:16:32 would pass the oxford motion right now and give it a standing ovation

00:16:37 nobody fights for a house he's been told he stole

00:16:44 you didn't steal this house but that's their whole strategy you don't have to

00:16:51 defeat a civilization that's been taught to be ashamed of itself. You just have to wait for it

00:16:55 to open the door. And we've opened the door. So we have to be clear about who we are, what we did

00:17:03 wrong, what we did and do right, both out loud. And then we have to decide whether this is worth

00:17:10 standing for, worth defending, worth fighting for, and decide it right now, not in the middle

00:17:15 of the night when three vans are on the road. That farmer didn't hold a debate. She didn't ask

00:17:21 whether her village deserved protecting,

00:17:23 whether the men in the mask had a point.

00:17:26 I don't know.

00:17:27 Were they offended by my fingernails?

00:17:31 She knew where she lived and who her neighbors were, 0.68

00:17:33 and she picked up the phone.

00:17:37 Europe has a minute book, too.

00:17:39 So do we.

00:17:41 Most of it's on social media, and it's being written right now.

00:17:44 what goes in at this time is up to us more in a minute

00:17:54 let me tell you about chapter medicare has this amazing ability to make perfectly intelligent

00:18:02 person people feel like they've accidentally walked into a final exam for class they never

00:18:06 took you start looking at plans and letters and networks and prescriptions and premiums

00:18:11 Five minutes later, you're just like, I don't know.

00:18:13 I just wanted health insurance.

00:18:15 Why am I suddenly decoding the Rosetta Stone here?

00:18:19 This is why Chapter is there and where they come in.

00:18:21 Chapter has licensed Medicare advisors who look across all of your Medicare plan options nationwide

00:18:27 to help you understand what actually makes sense for you.

00:18:30 Because the important question isn't which plan has the best commercial.

00:18:33 It's which plan fits your doctors and your prescriptions and your needs and your budget.

00:18:37 And Chapter's advisors aren't paid more to put you into one plan over another.

00:18:41 Their job is to help you sort through the options and make an informed decision.

00:18:45 On average, people who found a new plan with Chapter in this audience save $1,100 every single year on health care costs.

00:18:53 And if you're ready, if you're already on the right plan, they're going to tell you that and they'll send you on your way.

00:18:58 And it takes less than 20 minutes.

00:18:59 Just dial pound 250, say the keyword chapter.

00:19:02 It's pound 250, keyword chapter.

00:19:05 10 seconds, station ID.

00:19:07 Okay, I have some more economic news, and I'm not being a cheerleader.

00:19:22 I'm just telling you the truth.

00:19:23 Things are bad.

00:19:24 I've led this hour with how bad the gas price is, and it is a real problem.

00:19:28 But I told you a couple of days ago, two numbers came out of the Census Bureau,

00:19:32 and you probably didn't hear anything on the news if you don't get it.

00:19:36 You know, if you get it from the mainstream media, the first one, real median household income in America after inflation is eighty seven thousand four hundred and sixty dollars.

00:19:44 That's the highest ever recorded.

00:19:46 The government is counting has been counting since 1967.

00:19:49 It's never been higher than that.

00:19:51 Also, the the official poverty rate fell to ten point two percent.

00:19:56 That's the lowest on record child poverty.

00:19:58 Also a record low.

00:20:00 This is huge.

00:20:02 Now, this week, rent numbers, New Orleans down 8%, Nashville down 5.3%, San Antonio down 5%, Phoenix, Austin, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Miami, all down.

00:20:15 And the steepest drops are in Texas, the state that accounted for a quarter of all ICE arrests in July.

00:20:21 Fewer people competing for the same apartment means lower price on the apartment.

00:20:25 That's not ideology.

00:20:26 That's supply and demand.

00:20:27 And we've told you about that over and over again.

00:20:29 So, you want cheaper prices for your apartment?

00:20:33 You want your housing prices to go down?

00:20:36 Let ICE do their work.

00:20:39 Where they are doing their work, it's down around 5%.

00:20:42 S&P Global says business growth is at its highest level in more than five years.

00:20:48 Exports are a pace for a record.

00:20:51 More Americans are working today than any other point in history.

00:20:55 More orders, more output, more paychecks.

00:20:59 Now I say that, and I picture in my head a guy standing outside of a truck stop at Amarillo.

00:21:04 He's got one hand on the nozzle and one eye on the pump,

00:21:06 and the number is rolling past what he used to make in a day.

00:21:10 He's heard all those statistics, and he's thinking,

00:21:13 what the hell country is Glenn Beck talking about right now?

00:21:17 Buddy, I want you to know you're not wrong.

00:21:21 Your pain is not imaginary.

00:21:25 Gas prices are horrendous.

00:21:27 diesel is worse. Diesel's the price that nobody sees. It's the one that's put in the tractor

00:21:33 that planted the wheat, the train that hauled it, the mill that ground it, the truck that brought

00:21:39 the bread to your grocery store. It's in the forklifts and the barge and the delivery van

00:21:43 in your driveway. When diesel goes up, it gets paid for five or six times before it reaches you,

00:21:50 and you pay all five or six times. So when you walk out of the store feeling robbed,

00:21:56 You're not crazy. You're paying a fuel tax that never shows up on the receipt.

00:22:01 But don't let anyone sell you only half of the story.

00:22:05 I'm not trying to sugarcoat anything.

00:22:07 I'm telling you you're only getting half of the story.

00:22:10 The media wants you staring at the pump because you'll only see the pump and you'll believe everything is broken.

00:22:14 It isn't. The engine of this economy is running again.

00:22:19 Incomes are up. Poverty is down. Rents are falling. Factories are hiring.

00:22:23 What's choking us is fuel.

00:22:26 Not ten problems, one problem.

00:22:29 And that's the best news you'll hear all week.

00:22:31 A country with ten problems is in trouble.

00:22:34 A country with one problem has got a to-do list.

00:22:37 Now get to it, Donald Trump.

00:22:39 All right, let me tell you about relief factor.

00:22:41 Getting somebody to try something once is one thing.

00:22:44 There's a whole industry built around that.

00:23:45 Coming up

00:23:47 UVU dropped the report

00:23:49 of the day Charlie Kirk was shot. The internet

00:23:51 picked a villain but Glenn says that

00:23:53 is not the conclusion you should come to.

00:23:55 Stay with us on the Glenn Beck program.

00:24:13 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

00:24:23 We're glad you're here.

00:24:25 This weekend we had, I don't know, about 100 people up to the house here at the Standing Rock Ranch.

00:24:30 We had the first wedding here at the ranch.

00:24:34 It was a family wedding and had a conversation with one of my nephews.

00:24:40 We don't see the world the same

00:24:43 And I love him to death

00:24:45 And he loves his uncle

00:24:46 And we were having a conversation

00:24:50 I said just

00:24:51 When we finished hugging each other

00:24:54 I looked him in the eye and said

00:24:55 Just make me a promise will you

00:24:57 That this will never stop

00:24:58 Our love will never stop because we disagree on politics

00:25:01 Because it's not worth it

00:25:02 And he said Uncle Glenn I promise you

00:25:04 I'm going to talk about those families

00:25:07 That are struggling

00:25:09 including mine, from a story from the Wall Street Journal here coming up in just a minute.

00:25:14 If you're struggling with your family because of politics, you are not alone.

00:25:19 And I have to tell you, I have a hard time.

00:25:22 Well, we'll get into it in a minute.

00:25:25 There was news that came out on Friday.

00:25:28 Utah Valley University released the independent review of the day Charlie Kirk was killed on campus.

00:25:34 Outside experts did more than 70 interviews, read thousands of pages, videos, dispatch logs, text messages, blah, blah, blah.

00:25:43 It's all released, and within an hour, everybody had a verdict.

00:25:46 Everybody had something.

00:25:47 I got to get on the air, and I got to talk about this.

00:25:49 I got to quick.

00:25:50 I got to get on my podcast.

00:25:53 The family's lawyer blamed the university.

00:25:56 Parts of the left blamed Turning Point.

00:25:58 Podcasters said, the silence is the real story.

00:26:02 Is it?

00:26:03 Is that the real story?

00:26:04 The silence?

00:26:05 Huh.

00:26:08 Most of these people couldn't even finish page 10.

00:26:11 They told us, you know, silence.

00:26:18 Sometimes silence is the real story.

00:26:21 Like my opinion on some of these podcasters is.

00:26:31 Now I just told a story there, didn't I?

00:26:34 My silence was the story.

00:26:36 Not this time.

00:26:38 You know, we're living in the so-called information age.

00:26:42 We're not living in the information age anymore.

00:26:43 We were in the information age.

00:26:45 Now we're in the opinion and outrage age.

00:26:49 Opinion is the currency of the day.

00:26:51 And it is so cheap to print.

00:26:54 It is nobody ever runs out of opinions.

00:26:57 My gosh.

00:26:59 Facts are what's scarce in today's world.

00:27:03 So let me not sell you a side here.

00:27:05 Let me tell you the facts of what's in the report in order.

00:27:09 You decide what it means.

00:27:10 You're smart enough to figure this out, so you decide.

00:27:14 So in July of last year, a Turning Point field representative asked the campus club to request the outdoor courtyard.

00:27:24 Charlie had spoken at UVU before he knew the place.

00:27:27 The police chief learned about the event three weeks out.

00:27:30 Okay. All right. That's probably a, you know, the planning form estimated 600 people didn't list any safety concerns.

00:27:38 So the police chief doesn't find out until three weeks out. That's a problem. That's a problem.

00:27:43 University staff warned the courtyard would be hard to control point in their favor.

00:27:47 Turning point wanted it anyway with its own ticketing. University went along.

00:27:52 Probably shouldn't have done that. Reviewers said it should have kept those decisions for itself.

00:27:57 Then there was no security assessment, no written plan.

00:28:01 Nobody studied the rooftops.

00:28:04 Two days before Charlie's own security flagged the walkway above the stage,

00:28:11 the chief taped it off and posted to officers there.

00:28:15 That morning, he texts Charlie's security supervisor, meet at 11.

00:28:20 Well, they didn't meet. Why?

00:28:22 The chief was clearing protesters off the walkway,

00:28:25 than chasing students off a balcony

00:28:26 outside the president's office.

00:28:28 He was busy fixing the problems he could see.

00:28:32 Thirteen sworn officers for the whole university.

00:28:36 No screening, bike racks for barriers,

00:28:39 camera recording, nobody watching, no ambulance.

00:28:42 You know, the emergency manager was on vacation.

00:28:46 And then at 1223, a shot came from the roof

00:28:50 more than 400 feet away.

00:28:52 So

00:28:54 Whose fault is it?

00:29:00 Well, I read this thing

00:29:01 I can't find any bad faith

00:29:04 I can't find any plot line here

00:29:07 No conspiracy

00:29:08 I didn't find a single Jew in the report 1.00

00:29:10 What I found were serious failures 1.00

00:29:14 And failures on both sides of the table

00:29:17 You know what?

00:29:19 This is one of those things like 0.99

00:29:20 Crap happens 0.97

00:29:22 Charlie's security leads 0.99

00:29:29 Turning Point's field representatives

00:29:31 The student who invited him

00:29:35 All declined to be interviewed

00:29:37 The family has filed notice of a lawsuit

00:29:41 Lawsuits make people stop talking

00:29:43 That's what it is

00:29:44 That's not a confession

00:29:46 That's the silence

00:29:47 It's a lawsuit and litigation

00:29:50 The silence speaks volumes.

00:29:52 Yes, everybody's going to court and they've all got an attorney.

00:29:57 It's just a blank space.

00:30:00 And in the opinion age, somebody has to rush to fill in that silence.

00:30:05 I can talk, I can talk, I can talk.

00:30:06 Listen to me, I can talk, I can talk.

00:30:08 Look how many followers I can get.

00:30:13 You know, this would make me feel awful if we hadn't been here before, but we have.

00:30:17 Let me take you back to probably the biggest one, April 1912.

00:30:24 Days before the most famous ship in the world left Southampton.

00:30:28 The line shuffles its officers.

00:30:31 The second officer gets bumped.

00:30:33 He walks off the ship down the gangway with a little key in his pocket.

00:30:37 Little key.

00:30:38 What was that little key?

00:30:39 You probably never heard this story.

00:30:41 Oh, this was a big scandal back then.

00:30:43 He kept the key.

00:30:43 it opened the locker that held the binoculars for the crow's nest nobody noticed nobody thought it

00:30:50 mattered okay four nights later two lookouts standing in that nest no moon the sea so flat

00:30:58 nothing broke against the ice they're watching with their bare eyes they have no binoculars

00:31:03 because he left with a key he did it intentionally all day other ships had worn of ice

00:31:10 ice warnings titanix radio men buried buried why weren't they watching the radio why weren't

00:31:15 they getting those reports because they were buried in passenger telegrams the job they were

00:31:21 paid for late that night the nearest ship broke in one more time stopped surrounded by ice

00:31:27 titanix operator told him shut up we're busy so the man shot off the set and went to bed

00:31:34 about 10 minutes later the lookout rang the bell asked under oath how much sooner would you have

00:31:42 rung that bell if you had had your glasses he said enough to get away we wouldn't hit the 0.84

00:31:48 iceberg if i would have had the binocular see he took the key he was probably a jew 0.77

00:31:53 the ship that tried to warn them could see the distracts rockets it never came the only man who

00:32:01 could have heard that call was asleep. The lifeboats, Titanic carried more than the law

00:32:07 required, but the law was written for smaller ships. Nobody updated it. A key in the wrong

00:32:14 pocket, a radio man doing his job, a tired man going to bed, an old rule. There's no

00:32:21 villains there, more than 1,500

00:32:23 dead.

00:32:28 There wasn't a conspiracy, although everybody

00:32:31 tried to make it into a conspiracy at the time.

00:32:33 You do the small job in front

00:32:35 of you like the ship depends on it, and

00:32:37 sometimes it does. For a

00:32:39 hundred years, we've

00:32:41 refused to believe it.

00:32:43 It was the sister ship

00:32:44 swapped for insurance.

00:32:46 It was the banker who

00:32:48 canceled his trip.

00:32:52 They wanted to sink the rich men who stood in the way of the Federal Reserve.

00:32:57 The banker did counsel.

00:32:59 The rich men did die.

00:33:00 The Fed did come the next year.

00:33:02 Every dot is real.

00:33:04 But the line between them is not.

00:33:07 We want the plot.

00:33:08 Why?

00:33:09 Why do we want the plot?

00:33:10 Why do we insist on these conspiracy theories?

00:33:12 Because it's comforting.

00:33:13 Believe it or not, it's comforting.

00:33:15 A plot means somebody is in charge.

00:33:18 Catch him and it can't happen again.

00:33:20 But the truth is harder. Nobody's driving. Sometimes, sometimes they are, sometimes they're not.

00:33:27 It's just ordinary people doing ordinary jobs, leaving a small hole, and that's how Charlie Kirk gets killed.

00:33:35 Safety engineers call it Swiss cheese. You stack the slices, and every one of them has holes.

00:33:40 Most days, the holes don't line up.

00:33:45 The disaster is the day they do.

00:33:47 A familiar courtyard, a wrong head count, a university that deferred, a meeting that never happened, cameras nobody watched.

00:33:57 The holes lined up at 1223.

00:34:02 You know, I know this game.

00:34:04 I've connected dots that weren't connected and had to come back on this microphone and say, okay, I was wrong on that.

00:34:11 They weren't connected.

00:34:12 The plots I fear are not the ones before the shooting.

00:34:16 They're the ones that come after because every show needs a next episode.

00:34:24 Who's making their career on episode after episode after episode after episode?

00:34:30 The boring answer is usually one episode.

00:34:34 The plot is a series that will make you the most famous person in the world.

00:34:41 Nobody ever built an audience on, yeah, and then the radio guy went to bed.

00:34:46 And the guy just forgot the key was in his pocket.

00:34:51 I can't read anybody's heart, but I can read incentive.

00:34:56 I live inside it, too.

00:34:59 The conspiracy lets the real failures off the hook.

00:35:03 That's the problem here.

00:35:05 If it was a plot, nobody answers for 13 officers.

00:35:11 A courtyard ringed by roofs.

00:35:13 a sight the security team

00:35:16 never walked with the police

00:35:17 nobody fixes the cheese

00:35:19 the next speaker stands in the next courtyard

00:35:22 under the next roof

00:35:23 but here's what came after the Titanic

00:35:29 a lifeboat seat for every soul

00:35:33 a radio watch

00:35:35 24 hours a day

00:35:37 an ice patrol that still sails

00:35:40 the North Atlantic

00:35:41 By the Coast Guard's account, no ship that has heeded its warnings has ever been lost to an iceberg.

00:35:48 The theories went nowhere.

00:35:52 The theories didn't save anybody.

00:35:55 The boring facts did.

00:35:59 They've saved countless thousands of lives.

00:36:06 By the way, I was doing the research on this.

00:36:08 I found the key survived.

00:36:10 The key survival is sold at auction about 20 years ago for 90,000 pounds.

00:36:15 It's about the size of your thumb.

00:36:19 And that's usually the size of the truth.

00:36:22 It's inconsequential sometimes.

00:36:24 It's just a whole bunch of little teeny pieces.

00:36:27 And that's what I found.

00:36:31 Every April, a Coast Guard plane flies out over the spot where Titanic went down and drops a wreath into the sea.

00:36:37 Not a theory, not an opinion.

00:36:39 flowers, a wreath. Then the crew turns around, goes back to watching for more ice.

00:36:46 That's how you honor the dead. You get the facts straight. You fix what's broke. You leave the

00:36:53 conspiracies where they belong, in the trash can, unless you can actually connect dots and they

00:37:01 stand under scrutiny. If any of those dots, I'm going to say it, Candace, if any of those dots

00:37:10 had anything, they would be used in a court of law. Shame on you. Shame on you.

00:37:18 It looks like everybody made really bad mistakes.

00:37:22 Charlie deserves more than this

00:37:27 Not a series

00:37:28 Not a villain who happens to look like

00:37:31 Whoever we are supposed to dislike this week

00:37:34 The truth

00:37:36 The fix

00:37:37 And somebody watching the roof

00:37:40 I gotta tell you

00:37:43 The opinion age is gonna burn itself out quickly

00:37:45 Because it's gonna continue to sell you a plot

00:37:48 You give up on the opinions

00:37:52 Don't even take mine.

00:37:54 Go read.

00:37:55 If you want to know the truth, go read the report yourself.

00:37:59 The silence says everything.

00:38:01 No, actually, the words say everything.

00:38:03 Read the report and decide for yourself.

00:38:05 Back in just a second.

00:38:09 America imports a lot of things.

00:38:11 Coffee, bananas, electronics, little plastic things that come with instructions written in six languages.

00:38:18 None of which actually explain how to put the thing together, but that's fine.

00:38:20 that's the world we live in but beef come on we're america don't we already have cows

00:38:27 huh right yet hundreds of thousands of metric tons of foreign ground beef can enter this country

00:38:34 ground beef that europe has said no to we're now importing why would we do that when you're

00:38:42 standing at the grocery store you may have no idea where your beef is actually coming from

00:38:46 good ranchers does things differently they deliver 100 american meat directly to your door and they

00:38:51 partner with more than 100 local american farms and ranches so you can know who you're supporting

00:38:57 where it comes from because it's your food for a limited time you can get a free ground beef

00:39:02 bundle with your first good ranchers order that's four pounds of 100 american angus ground beef to

00:39:31 have forgotten that we're not enemies we're americans glenn beck returns in a moment

00:39:38 it feels like every conversation about weight loss eventually turns to injections these days i mean

00:39:57 you probably heard about all that by now there's a lot of commercials pretty much running around

00:40:00 the clock uh these results can be dramatic uh but for a lot of people you know giving themselves a

00:40:05 shot every week is suboptimal, you know, along with the potential side effects. It's not something

00:40:10 that's really appealing to a lot of people. It's one thing, of course, people do want to lose

00:40:14 weight. But, you know, do you really want to go that far? Do you really want to use that? Do you

00:40:19 want to stick a needle in yourself to make that happen? Some people love that. Some people are 0.83

00:40:24 real needle fiends, but most aren't, I would say. So the real question comes to you when you say,

00:40:30 like, well, how if I want to keep losing weight, if I want to start losing weight, if I want to

00:40:34 maintain weight loss, would I take a different approach? And that's where Lean comes in. Lean

00:40:38 is a weight loss supplement developed by doctors at Brickhouse Nutrition for people who feel stuck,

00:40:44 especially those who have maybe 10 or more pounds to lose, can't seem to get past that plateau.

00:41:31 so uh leonard tfw said uh legally it's called contributory negligence on both sides

00:41:40 uh randy sounds like more monday morning quarterbacking did charlie have presidential

00:41:46 level security before this that's what it sounds like everybody expected no he didn't have

00:41:50 presidential sir do you know how much that costs you know there is no way jason you were on my

00:41:57 security detail i've spent more money on protection in my life for my family i've spent more protection

00:42:05 more money than probably any other person on radio or television would you agree with that

00:42:10 oh by far yes okay and still we have been very very fortunate but still there's things that

00:42:20 could happen and they could kill there unless you are have presidential security with an unlimited

00:42:27 budget and even then they have shot at trump how many times you can't stop somebody

00:42:34 am i wrong i hate saying that but it is very hard to do it and even jfk we were just talking to the

00:42:43 insider said if if all a man needs a willingness to trade their life for the person they're trying

00:42:48 to kill and slip ups happen mistakes happen yes it's it's very difficult yep all right more in

00:42:57 just a second i want to talk to you about this story that was in the wall street journal about

00:43:02 families and how kids are now divorcing their parents over politics that's coming up

00:43:18 I don't know when we reach the point where we have to investigate the news before we can actually read the news, but we're definitely there.

00:43:26 And I see a story and I think, OK, but what actually happened? Not what does the left say? What happened? Not what does the right say?

00:43:32 But what actually happened? What do we actually know? This has been so frustrating. And that's how I ended up using free spoke.

00:43:39 You can see the coverage from the left, the right and the middle and where the same facts start showing up across all three.

00:43:46 then you know okay that's that's it you got something solid you can decide for yourself

00:43:52 at that point based on the facts and that's the point search something controversial like

00:43:56 who controls the media on freespoke you'll get news and information from across the spectrum

00:44:01 full picture not just what the algorithm says you want to see i don't need somebody else deciding

00:46:43 Hello, America. There was a story in the Wall Street Journal about a conference that took

00:46:52 place in Chicago. And it was about kids that have said their parents are toxic, abusive,

00:47:04 not safe because of politics. And it is a growing problem. It is not a problem that

00:47:11 is in the rearview mirror. It is a growing problem. And I want to talk to you about it

00:47:15 because so many people are going through it.

00:47:18 And it is, it's loaded.

00:47:23 If you have lost children and grandchildren

00:47:26 because of this and this these days,

00:47:30 you are not alone.

00:47:33 And this is a loaded topic for me

00:47:40 because you are not alone.

00:47:43 But I am going to do my best to control my, I would have to say emotions, because I am so, there are times that I am so mad.

00:47:56 There are times that I am so incredibly sad.

00:48:00 There are times that I am very reflective on my problems.

00:48:06 I mean, this is an emotional time bomb, and I want to talk to you about it, tell you what

00:48:16 this story said, and see if we can defuse this bomb that's inside all of us.

00:48:24 We'll do that here in 60 seconds.

00:48:26 First, pre-born.

00:48:28 There are photographs in your house that would mean absolutely nothing to a stranger.

00:48:32 A baby asleep in a car seat, a toddler covered in birthday cake.

00:48:36 the first day of school. To somebody else, it's just a picture. To you, it's your entire world.

00:48:42 Because you know everything that came after that moment. Now imagine that first picture came before

00:48:48 the baby was even born, that ultrasound. That can give a mom facing an unplanned pregnancy a chance

00:48:53 to see the child she sees she's carrying. Preborn supports pregnancy clinics all across America to

00:49:00 provide ultrasounds to women at no cost to them, along with compassionate support when they're

00:49:05 sure what to do next, and that ultrasound can make something that feels abstract suddenly very

00:49:10 real. There's a child in there, a life already underway, a person who, given the chance, could

00:49:16 someday fill an entire photo album. Right now, another mom needs that moment. Will you give it

00:49:22 to her? $28 will provide one life-saving ultrasound. $140 will rescue five babies.

00:49:29 Please give whatever you can. Dial pound 250, say the keyword baby. It's pound 250,

00:49:33 keyword, baby, go to preborn.com slash beck. That's preborn.com slash beck, sponsored by

00:49:38 preborn. This last summer in a conference room in Chicago, more than 200 moms and dads

00:49:47 filled chairs. Some of them flew in from as far as Australia. Another 250 watched online.

00:49:54 Every one of them has a grown child who stopped speaking to them. Wall Street Journal was

00:50:01 in that room and they reported on it. One mom, a retired event planner from Atlanta, hasn't heard

00:50:07 from her 28-year-old son in three years. What still stuns her is all the kids are using the

00:50:17 same words. Narcissist, self-absorbed, your fault. A Cornell sociologist found that at any given time 0.99

00:50:25 about one American in 10 is cut off from a parent or a child

00:50:29 and one in four from some close relative.

00:50:33 Last month alone, more than 138,000 new TikTok videos

00:50:40 were posted about cutting off their parents.

00:50:47 This is 10 times what it was in August of 2020.

00:50:52 10 times.

00:50:55 A family therapist surveyed 1,000 estranged parents.

00:50:59 82% said the same labels show up right before the door is closed.

00:51:06 And that is, you're toxic, you're abusive, this is an unsafe...

00:51:10 Oh, I can't take it.

00:51:16 Researchers have a name for it.

00:51:18 Concept creep.

00:51:20 Ordinary conflict, criticism, a hard disagreement,

00:51:23 a parent who doesn't approve gets relabeled as toxic, harmful, dangerous.

00:51:32 And once it's harm, leaving isn't a rupture, it's self-care.

00:51:39 It's brave.

00:51:41 There's a video for it. There's a coach for it.

00:51:44 There's paid support groups for it.

00:51:46 One psychologist in the piece says that for some adults

00:51:53 Cutting off a parent is their first chance at teenage rebellion

00:51:58 You're so brave

00:51:59 He says a parent who disagrees is no longer seen as a family with shared history

00:52:05 But as a member of the other tribe

00:52:07 A professor emeritus at the University of Minnesota

00:52:11 Summed up what changed in the counselor's office

00:52:14 Therapists gave estrangement the professional authoritative stamp of approval.

00:52:20 Why are we listening to these experts?

00:52:24 Now, some parents are dangerous.

00:52:27 Some children are abused, beaten, terrorized.

00:52:32 And you've got to leave them because it's a matter of survival.

00:52:38 And the generation before mine looked away from that.

00:52:42 I'm proud that we look at that.

00:52:44 If that's your story, nobody in this program is going to tell you to go back to that house.

00:52:52 And some parents need to hear what their kids are saying before they dismiss it.

00:52:58 A grievance can be exaggerated but can still be true.

00:53:02 And I'm open to hear it.

00:53:04 I am open to hear it.

00:53:09 But that's not what 138,000 videos a month are about. 0.73

00:53:14 For 20 years, this generation told us, rightly, that a parent who cuts off a child for being gay or living a life a parent didn't approve of has failed as a parent.

00:53:25 Good parents, we were told, love their kids no matter what.

00:53:28 And you know what?

00:53:29 They were right.

00:53:34 Now, let me turn this around.

00:53:37 I'm sorry.

00:53:37 I get a little angry.

00:53:38 Let me turn this around on the same young adults who are now passing judgment, slamming

00:53:47 the door on a mom or a dad for believing something you don't, and then you call it enlightenment.

00:53:55 I got news for you.

00:53:57 That's the same sin with the chairs turned around.

00:54:02 Okay.

00:54:08 I'm not sure how much more

00:54:24 I can take from these

00:54:25 safe space, over pampered 1.00

00:54:28 everybody gets a trophy

00:54:29 holier than thou crowd

00:54:31 I can't take it

00:54:33 But when the Lord attends me,

00:54:46 I find this really sad.

00:54:55 Your parent is hurting deeply,

00:55:00 And they will feel that pain to the end of their life.

00:55:06 But I want to tell you something, and this is the saddest part.

00:55:11 Their pain is going to end long before yours does.

00:55:16 See, we've lost parents already, and that never goes away.

00:55:23 And you will have decades left to live with a divorce.

00:55:28 You filed yourself and didn't even, in many cases, give it a hearing.

00:55:42 We've been here before, not with an app, but with a war.

00:55:47 We've been here before.

00:55:49 We were here during the Civil War.

00:55:51 We were here in the Revolutionary War.

00:55:54 Ben Franklin, one of the saddest stories.

00:55:56 He had one son, William.

00:55:57 He raised him.

00:55:58 Took him to London, watched him become the royal governor of New Jersey, and then came the revolution.

00:56:05 The father chose the country. The son chose the king.

00:56:11 William was arrested in 1776, spent two years in an American prison,

00:56:16 and when he got out, he led loyalists against the causes father had bet his life on.

00:56:22 Nine years without a word.

00:56:25 Then the war ended.

00:56:26 Franklin was the one who signed the peace with Britain

00:56:30 And it was Franklin who reached out first

00:56:34 He dropped a hint through a merchant headed for London

00:56:38 Why hasn't my son made any move towards reconciliation?

00:56:44 If nations can make peace, why can't we?

00:56:50 William wrote back

00:56:51 He asked to revive the affection that had been, in his word, the pride and happiness of his life

00:56:59 He also said if all of it happened again tomorrow, he'd do exactly the same thing

00:57:06 Franklin answered with a letter you can still read, we should post it

00:57:14 Nothing has ever hurt me so much, he wrote

00:57:16 As to find myself deserted in my old age by my own son

00:57:21 And then he wrote the wisest thing in it.

00:57:26 I ought not blame you for differing with me.

00:57:30 We are all men subject to errors.

00:57:35 Our opinions are not in our own power.

00:57:40 And then this.

00:57:41 There are natural duties which precede political ones

00:57:44 and cannot be extinguished by them.

00:57:48 Franklin knew the answer

00:57:52 He wrote it down

00:57:55 He could not do it

00:58:00 They met once more

00:58:05 In an English port in 1785

00:58:07 A few days of business

00:58:08 Settling of property

00:58:10 Franklin settled home

00:58:12 They never saw each other again

00:58:14 When his will was read

00:58:17 the son got almost nothing

00:58:19 with one line of explanation.

00:58:23 The part he acted against me

00:58:25 in the late war.

00:58:28 The man who made peace

00:58:30 with the British Empire

00:58:31 couldn't make peace

00:58:33 with his own son.

00:58:36 And it cuts both ways. 0.77

00:58:37 The father was right about the war. 1.00

00:58:39 The son believed he was right 0.62

00:58:40 about his duty.

00:58:41 Both were proud.

00:58:43 Each wanted the other to go first.

00:58:45 And when the other one didn't,

00:58:46 it wasn't enough.

00:58:52 Being right didn't give either one of them

00:58:54 a father or a son back.

00:58:58 I'm telling you that piece of history

00:59:00 because nothing's new.

00:59:03 The riff isn't new.

00:59:05 The families have split over kings and churches

00:59:07 and money, a thousand smaller things since Cain.

00:59:11 Here's what's new.

00:59:13 The applause.

00:59:14 the cheering, the coaching

00:59:17 the verbiage that goes along with it

00:59:22 to celebrate your courage for destroying your family

00:59:27 over an opinion

00:59:28 and I don't care who started it

00:59:30 I don't care who's responsible for it

00:59:32 it's your family

00:59:34 I've lost four

00:59:43 dear family members

00:59:45 I don't know if I'll ever see them again

00:59:48 I write all the time

00:59:52 I never get word back

00:59:55 you are not alone

01:00:04 Franklin at least called it what it was,

01:00:11 the thing that hurt him most in his life.

01:00:14 He didn't post it as a victory.

01:00:22 Nobody coached him through it.

01:00:24 Nobody sold him a membership.

01:00:26 Today, there's a whole economy standing at the door,

01:00:29 cheering while those doors close.

01:00:31 an algorithm that noticed what you lingered on

01:00:35 and feeds you more of it

01:00:36 influencers who are only credentialists

01:00:38 they did it too

01:00:39 and often it's a professional

01:00:44 who's never met your mom

01:00:45 telling you the reason is her

01:00:48 that you're the brave one

01:00:52 even the man who runs one of the biggest

01:00:56 estrangement support groups in the country

01:00:58 admits it

01:01:01 The person on your phone isn't listening to you, doesn't know you, can't judge your situation.

01:01:08 A stranger's story is not your diagnosis.

01:01:15 To the grown kids, honor your father and your mother.

01:01:20 Paul called it the first commandment with a promise attached.

01:01:25 He doesn't ever say, agree with them.

01:01:28 He doesn't say, obey them forever.

01:01:31 He doesn't say, let them hurt you.

01:01:33 He says, honor them.

01:01:39 Honor can be done from a distance with rules and limits.

01:01:43 Basic kindness for people who bore you and raised you.

01:01:53 Who worried when you were sick.

01:01:55 who still think of you every single day.

01:02:09 Boundary is a fence with a gate.

01:02:12 A cutoff is a wall with no door.

01:02:15 Know which one you're building and who sold you the bricks.

01:02:19 And to the parents in Chicago,

01:02:22 go first, not with a defense.

01:02:25 Surrender.

01:02:26 Just ask a question.

01:02:29 What did I do to hurt you to deserve this?

01:02:35 And then do the hardest thing a parent ever does.

01:02:38 Don't explain.

01:02:38 Just listen.

01:02:40 You don't have to agree.

01:02:43 Just hear it.

01:02:48 A door you closed to punish something,

01:02:51 to punish the actions, to punish someone.

01:02:55 You close that door, that door locks from both sides.

01:03:01 Benjamin Franklin died in 1790.

01:03:04 His son outlived him by 23 years in London, a man without a country,

01:03:08 and in the end, a man without a dad.

01:03:13 They were both right about something.

01:03:15 It didn't matter.

01:03:16 I know how hard it is to write

01:03:26 even though you think about them

01:03:29 every single day

01:03:30 multiple times a day

01:03:31 never stop writing

01:03:38 never stop texting

01:03:41 never stop calling

01:03:42 reach them one way or another

01:03:46 in hopes that they will read that text, that email, that letter.

01:03:57 Franklin wrote them.

01:04:00 For us, those words, for us, 240-some years ago,

01:04:06 we are all men subject to errors.

01:04:09 The natural duties come first.

01:04:13 Write the letter, no matter which side you're on,

01:04:16 Write the letter, and when the answer comes, let it be enough.

01:04:24 I will pray for you and ask that you pray for me.

01:04:32 Together, maybe we can all heal our families at some point.

01:04:36 More in a minute.

01:04:39 There are some emergencies that come out of nowhere, and then there's a winter storm.

01:04:43 A weather service starts talking about it days ahead.

01:04:46 You know, your phone starts beeping at you, and the local news puts a giant blue blob over your entire state.

01:04:52 Basically, nature sends you a save-the-date, yet every year people still wait to know until the snow starts falling to prepare.

01:05:00 That's when the stores get picked over, the roads get bad, and everybody suddenly has the same shopping list.

01:05:05 My Patriot Supply saw that happen in a winter.

01:05:08 They see it every winter.

01:05:10 Their Vesta indoor heater and stove sold out again and again,

01:05:13 all when the major storms threatened and people rushed to get ready.

01:05:17 So this year, they put together a winter prep bundle.

01:05:20 You get 114 servings of emergency food, a Vesta heater, a stove that's safe to use indoors,

01:05:28 backup power, solar charging, emergency lighting, thermal blankets, food, heat, power, light, everything you need.

01:05:35 Don't wait. Just get it now.

01:05:36 Preparewithglenn.com.

01:05:38 You can save up to $300 on the complete bundle.

01:05:40 Don't wait until the forecast sends everybody scrambling again.

01:05:43 Then go to preparewithglenn.com.

01:05:44 Get your winter prep bundle while it's still available.

01:05:47 It's preparewithglenn.com.

01:05:50 10-second station ID.

01:06:04 So there is a story on our newsletter this morning from John Solomon's Just the News.

01:06:08 talks about a global crackdown on radical left-wing violence in groups like Antifa.

01:06:14 Back in July, Marco Rubio addressed representatives from over 60 countries.

01:06:20 He said, and I'm quoting,

01:06:21 Antifa militants and their comrades travel from across Europe and to the Americas

01:06:25 to participate in each other's attacks, defundal propaganda and training,

01:06:30 materials, target information, and shared encrypted channels

01:06:33 moving through underground networks of safe houses, finance,

01:06:37 and sustain their operations

01:06:38 through transnational funds.

01:06:41 Hmm.

01:06:42 When he said that,

01:06:42 it got us all to thinking,

01:06:44 you know,

01:06:44 how are they funded?

01:06:46 How are they doing this

01:06:47 through international networks?

01:06:48 What does that even mean?

01:06:50 We partnered with Data Republican

01:06:52 to get to the bottom of it.

01:06:53 She tracked down the organizations

01:06:54 and followed the money.

01:06:55 And what she provided 0.99

01:06:56 was a wild look

01:06:57 into how these groups

01:06:58 influence American politics,

01:07:00 sentiment, and street action.

01:07:01 And Marco Rubio

01:07:02 was exactly right.

01:07:04 This is next Thursday.

01:07:06 We show you the fundamental transformation of America through funding, organizing, and influence on a global scale.

01:07:15 You don't want to miss this.

01:07:17 Powered by Data Republican Research, don't miss our next Torch special.

01:07:21 It is next Thursday, only on Torch.

01:07:24 When something goes wrong, the worst time to discover you only have one option is right then.

01:07:30 Because real life doesn't appear and arrive in a nice, neat category.

01:07:34 There's a whole lot of territory between everything is fine and a situation where lethal force is the right response.

01:07:41 That territory is why I like Burna.

01:07:44 Burna gives you another option for protecting yourself and your family when you need to stop a threat, but lethal force isn't the answer all the time.

01:07:51 Their less lethal launchers can fire kinetic rounds and chemical irritant projectiles.

01:07:56 It's tear gas.

01:07:57 I mean, you can have the pepper, but I load it with tear gas.

01:08:00 You have the ability to respond without having to get close to a potential threat.

01:08:03 you can have 60 feet away technology from Burna that means your launcher is ready when you need

01:08:10 it there are no background checks permits required Burna launchers are legal to own in all 50 states

01:08:15 can be shipped directly to you this is not about replacing one line of defense this is about adding

01:08:21 another one and having a second choice when seconds matter go to Burna byrna.com slash

01:08:57 Hey, I'm struggling here because the phones are lit up.

01:09:18 The messages that are coming in from the insiders, everybody is relating to this.

01:09:25 Everybody has it.

01:09:27 Everybody has it in their family.

01:09:29 I mean, 138,000 of us are estranged from our children every single month.

01:09:35 Every single month.

01:09:38 And there's a whole industry built up for this.

01:09:41 And I have to tell you, I can't.

01:09:46 You know, let me play something.

01:09:47 Let me take you to someplace funny.

01:09:51 Because you see this, if you don't know it's a parody,

01:09:54 you're going to be out you're going to be outraged by it i want you to know it's a parody but this

01:09:59 parody is so believable today so many people will believe this where 10 years ago you wouldn't

01:10:07 believe this cut seven please this mom on school lunches my son school recently implemented a new

01:10:14 policy that says that no food and student lunch boxes can be over 12 decibels they even sent home

01:10:21 a little device for us to practice with the foods that we're planning on sending to make sure that

01:10:26 it meets those requirements. There's this letter that got sent to us, and I'm going to read you

01:10:32 part of it. This is the device that they sent us to practice with. So it says, as part of our

01:10:37 ongoing effort to create a calm, focused, and respectful lunchtime environment, they were going

01:10:42 to be piloting this Decibel Aware Lunch Initiative, and they acronymed it DALI, and they want students

01:10:51 to practice at home they gave this list of decibels of common foods so there's no apples

01:11:00 no chips no popcorn no crunchy like crusted sandwiches no pretzels granola bars celery

01:11:06 could you i mean you might believe that you'd be like it's california right it's california

01:11:15 it's not my state it's got to be one of those crazy it's california right no it's a parody

01:11:20 thank God. But that's the problem with our society. Nobody does anything hard anymore.

01:11:29 Nobody does anything hard anymore. Now, I'm going to grant it's hard to grow up with phones.

01:11:40 But that's a choice. Turn it off. It is hard to have people say what they say about you.

01:11:48 Believe me, I know that one.

01:11:50 I was being bashed on social media before being bashed on social media was cool.

01:11:57 I've been called every name under the sun.

01:11:59 And you can either let that destroy you or you can shut it off and not read it and don't care.

01:12:05 It's really hard.

01:12:08 But you have to do it.

01:12:09 those who suffered through covid and had their high school years or their college years just

01:12:19 thrown out i don't know what to do about that but there's good news today i should just read a

01:12:24 report today that generation is recovering from it they're starting to make progress again and

01:12:31 They're getting over it.

01:12:37 Everybody is, oh my gosh, I've got to have a safe space.

01:12:42 No, you don't.

01:12:42 Life isn't safe.

01:12:44 Why in our wildest dreams did we buy into that?

01:12:49 Did we ever repeat that?

01:12:51 I need a safe space.

01:12:53 Well, I guess you'll get one in heaven.

01:12:56 You better work towards that though, 0.99

01:12:58 because you could go to hell. 0.99

01:12:59 And believe me, there's no safe space there.

01:13:04 There's no place on earth that is safe.

01:13:07 None.

01:13:08 Zero. 0.98

01:13:12 I feel so stupid saying this. 0.97

01:13:13 My mother used to say, 1.00

01:13:14 steaks and stones can break your bones,

01:13:15 but name will never. 1.00

01:13:17 That, you want a tattoo, sweetheart, 1.00

01:13:19 put that one on your forehead.

01:13:21 You'll remember it every time you look in that mirror

01:13:24 with your purple hair and the rings

01:13:26 coming out of your nose,

01:13:28 you're piercing your eyelid put that sticks and stones because when everybody goes wow you're a

01:13:34 freak do you just remember that doesn't mean anything to you you look great in that piercing

01:13:39 no you don't you look like you know what you look i look at you and i feel sad i feel very 0.55

01:13:48 very sad because you are screaming for attention. You want somebody just to notice you.

01:13:59 Either that, and it's probably a combination, you feel so horrible about yourself that you

01:14:06 have to destroy yourself. You have to pierce yourself, destroy what God gave you. 0.85

01:14:15 You know, there's another story today. Let me see if I can find this.

01:14:19 Because it kind of goes along with it in a weird way.

01:14:24 There's an article in The Atlantic of all places.

01:14:27 The hypothesis is that when marriage and sex are endowed with a sense of sacredness

01:14:32 and the family-friendly values found in faith, they are both more likely to be satisfying.

01:14:40 This is according to a new report, Institute of Family Studies.

01:14:44 They're showing no group of Americans seems to be having more sex and more satisfying sex than a married man and woman who regularly attend church. 0.95

01:14:55 That group is made mostly of Christians but also includes Jews and Muslims. 0.72

01:15:00 In fact, we find the only Americans who have avoided the country's sex recession in which fewer and fewer men and women are having regular sex are husbands and wives who attend religious services at least twice a month. 0.99

01:15:14 So all this thing about, oh, well, you're just a prude. 0.95

01:15:16 Nope, apparently they're getting it on.

01:15:19 Apparently they're having a great time.

01:15:22 Those who go to church seem to have a great time.

01:15:26 Those who don't, not so much.

01:15:29 Not so much. 0.79

01:15:30 Why?

01:15:30 You're so free.

01:15:32 You're so free.

01:15:33 You can do anything with anyone.

01:15:37 I'll tell you why.

01:15:38 because you view your body as a meat suit.

01:15:45 And so everything you do to your body

01:15:47 or you have done to your body

01:15:50 or you use your body for,

01:15:52 it's a meat suit, so it has less meaning.

01:15:56 But if you believe your body is a sacred gift,

01:16:00 then every act can be like a sacrament

01:16:02 loaded with endless meaning and endless joy.

01:16:05 there's a real difference between real sex given as a gift from god and the cheap counterfeit they

01:16:12 try to sell you in this godless world go ahead watch it on the screen until it becomes meaningless 0.57

01:16:18 and makes you hate your own body and everybody else's and you're not interested in anything

01:16:24 anymore it's a counterfeit it's a lie it's evil all of this stuff that is destroying these families

01:16:30 Where do you think that's coming from?

01:16:33 I mean, remember when everybody first found that BLM, on their website,

01:16:38 one of their first goals was to dismantle the family? 0.52

01:16:42 And we thought that was evil.

01:16:44 Now, everything is dismantling the family, and we don't find that evil.

01:16:49 We find that therapeutic.

01:16:51 We find that safe.

01:16:53 We find that empowering.

01:16:56 Do you?

01:16:57 Do you? 1.00

01:17:00 You can watch sex. 1.00

01:17:08 You can have sex with whatever, dressed as an animal. 1.00

01:17:13 Whatever. 1.00

01:17:14 It's going to get bad.

01:17:15 It's going to get boring. 1.00

01:17:17 Well, I've already had sex with you dressed as a deer. 0.99

01:17:21 What else could we do? 1.00

01:17:23 Oh, God.

01:17:25 You do that, or you can go the other way.

01:17:30 And have it become a reminder of the goodness of God and the sacredness of your own marriage

01:17:34 and how much you love your spouse. 0.96

01:17:40 Don't listen to people who say religious people are prudes that don't have sex. 0.86

01:17:44 Religious people are the ones who are actually having a lot of it right now 0.98

01:17:47 and enjoying a lot of it.

01:17:50 And did I mention have a lot of it?

01:17:56 All of these things are coming back because they're all true.

01:18:00 they're all true. Go ahead, have premarital sex, have all you want. Look at the stats. 0.99

01:18:07 Your chances of having a successful marriage fall dramatically. That's not me. That's not

01:18:13 God punishing you. That's just the way it is. It's just the way it is. Because God's got to

01:18:19 be somewhere in there. You know, my wife turned me down twice. I mean, not for sex, because that

01:18:24 would be a very low number. That's a very high number. I mean, turn me down for marriage.

01:18:30 no why why I mean all this at the time I had nothing I had nothing I had no future

01:18:41 a recovering alcoholic divorced two kids I mean I was a real catch why she could have

01:18:49 gone on with a list forever her list was one thing we don't share God we don't have God in

01:18:56 common. Neither of us, neither of us were happy with our churches. We don't have God in common.

01:19:03 We have to find something that we can pursue together, that we both like and want to pursue.

01:19:14 She was absolutely right. She was right to say no. She was absolutely right.

01:19:21 I tell my kids that right now.

01:19:25 You have to be pursuing God and you have to find somebody.

01:19:29 Honestly, honestly, if you pray, God will help you find your way

01:19:39 and you will find the church that is right and true for you and for life.

01:19:47 God will help you find the truth.

01:19:51 wherever you are right now is right where you're supposed to be.

01:19:57 You're all lined up to go find his truth.

01:20:01 Not yours, his.

01:20:07 And without that in the center of you, you're not going to make it.

01:20:10 You're not going to make it.

01:20:13 Maybe that's one of the reasons why we're having so many problems with our families

01:20:16 is because, and this is convicting me, not you,

01:20:26 because maybe we didn't do enough on the God front.

01:20:34 I don't know.

01:20:38 But all these lies are going to come down, crashing down.

01:20:41 trust me in 10 years all of this will be

01:20:47 all of this will be people will be disgusted by this in the next 10 years we're going to start

01:20:54 persecuting each other that's that's what's next in this if you if history is correct we start

01:21:00 persecuting each other we start blaming each other and we start saying you know what it was 0.93

01:21:05 your fault because you were for trump no it's your fault because you were for marxist you know 0.54

01:21:10 what i'm gonna round all of you up because you can't that's what that's what happens in societies

01:21:15 we're now at the the zenith of the we the time where we're all like we've got to belong to a

01:21:23 group and now it's starting to come down and so now we're going to start criminalizing one another

01:21:29 it's going to get worse the breakup of your family is going to get worse because now we're

01:21:36 going to look for criminals. Unless we choose not to, unless we know how history does this

01:21:44 every time and what people do every single time. And we say, no, I'm not going to do that. I'm not

01:21:51 going to do that. It's going to be hard because there's a whole business into this now. And

01:21:58 there's country after country after country that wants us to do it. They're encouraging us to do

01:22:03 it. You think all of this stuff on TikTok, you ever notice what TikTok, have you ever seen what

01:22:08 TikTok is like in China? It's not like this. Huh? Why wouldn't China allow this in their country?

01:22:15 But they're fine shipping this garbage over to us because they're fine with us destroying 0.99

01:22:20 ourselves and our families and our morals. That's what they need to control the world. 0.98

01:22:25 And we're just lemmings. Stop being a lemming. Stop doing it. Stop following the crowd. Stop 0.93

01:22:32 trying to be the influencer. Stop. Just be you. Just be you. Be the best version of you. Go find

01:22:44 God. Go find him. He's looking for you. He's right now. He's like, come on, dude. Come on.

01:22:50 You know that's the answer. Come on. Come find me. I dare you. Go find him. He wants you to.

01:22:58 Go to church.

01:22:59 I don't care which church.

01:23:00 Go to church.

01:23:02 Talk to a pastor.

01:23:03 Most of them are probably going to piss you off.

01:23:05 Go to another one.

01:23:07 And then the next Sunday, go to another one.

01:23:09 You'll find one.

01:23:10 You'll find one.

01:23:13 But you want to solve all of our problems?

01:23:16 You're not going to.

01:23:18 But God will.

01:23:20 And according to this latest survey,

01:23:23 you could cut sex out of it.

01:23:25 So what do you have to lose?

01:23:27 All right. More in just a second. Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's Mercury One. Let me, you know what? Instead of doing this commercial, I better do the commercial because I barely have time. I got to tell you something that's happened with Mercury One that's very exciting.

01:23:42 Anyway, think about the number three for a second, because right now, Mercury One, three means something very different than it usually does.

01:23:49 It means one act of generosity can reach three completely different battlegrounds, human suffering, religious persecution, and the fight to preserve America's story.

01:23:58 We are building a new permanent 175,000 square foot home in Irving, Texas.

01:24:04 The entire Mercury One family, Mercury One will be able to expand its humanitarian work.

01:24:09 The Nazarene Fund will continue helping persecuted Christians get away from persecution.

01:24:15 And the American Journey Experience has a permanent home for preserving and teaching history in a museum setting that will blow your mind.

01:24:22 It's hopefully going to be opening up early next year.

01:24:25 Every gift to this campaign is being matched dollar for dollar up to $300,000.

01:24:30 We've spent 15 years building these missions.

01:24:32 Now we're carrying all three of them into the future.

01:24:35 While this three-times impact campaign is underway, we have exciting news.

01:24:39 Every single gift is matched dollar for dollar up to 300 grand, so please act right now.

01:24:44 That's one gift doubled by the match, tripled in reach across the whole Mercury One family.

01:24:50 Give now. MercuryOne.org. That's MercuryOne.org.

01:24:57 You're going to be thinking about that for a couple minutes, huh?

01:25:01 Glenn Beck will be right back.

01:25:05 I don't know when we reach the point where we have to investigate the news before we can actually read the news, but we're definitely there.

01:25:23 And I see a story and I think, OK, but what actually happened? Not what does the left say? What happened? Not what does the right say? But what actually happened? What do we actually know?

01:25:32 This has been so frustrating, and that's how I ended up using FreeSpoke.

01:25:36 You can see the coverage from the left, the right, and the middle,

01:25:39 and where the same facts start showing up across all three,

01:25:43 then you know, okay, that's it.

01:25:45 You got something solid.

01:25:47 You can decide for yourself at that point based on the facts,

01:25:50 and that's the point.

01:25:51 Search something controversial like who controls the media.

01:25:54 On FreeSpoke, you'll get news and information from across the spectrum,

01:25:58 full picture, not just what the algorithm says you want to see. I don't need somebody else

01:26:03 deciding what I'm supposed to think. I will find the facts and I will decide. I've got

01:26:09 free spoke pulled up right now. Free spoke, one word, free, free speech, free spoke.

01:26:15 so justin haskins uh is joining me after the top of the hour he has been a co-author of mine of

01:26:35 couple of my books i think three of my books um he is also the author of the next big crash

01:26:39 conspiracy collapse and the men behind history's biggest heist.

01:26:44 But he has a new poll out, and it is terrifying.

01:26:51 What we're finding out about those under 30, truly terrifying, 0.64

01:26:55 especially when it comes to Sharia law 0.99

01:26:57 and what you're willing to do for cheaper gas prices.

01:28:11 This is a movement, and you're part of it, a big part of it.

01:28:28 You can walk into a bedroom, you can take one look at your kid and go,

01:28:31 yeah, he's getting sick.

01:28:32 You don't need a thermometer.

01:28:33 You don't need a doctor.

01:28:34 You just know, right?

01:28:36 Unfortunately, knowing they're about to get sick is the easy part.

01:28:39 The hard part is discovering that half the town has the same bug.

01:28:43 The pharmacy is out of the medication they need.

01:28:45 And now you're driving all over town hoping somebody has it in stock.

01:28:49 That's why I advise you prepare before the first cough starts.

01:28:54 The Kids Case from Jace Medical provides physician-prescribed emergency medications and antibiotics designed specifically for your children.

01:29:00 And you can also include essentials like albuterol, EpiPens, Zyrtec.

01:29:30 We'll be right back.

01:30:00 the fusion of entertainment enlightenment and empowerment this is the glenn beck program

01:30:17 hello america welcome to the glenn beck program there is a new poll that is coming out this week

01:30:27 In a few days, it'll be released nationwide. You're getting it early.

01:30:30 And it is shocking. Shocking.

01:30:34 I'm going to go through, over the next two days, what's in this poll.

01:30:39 Justin Haskins is joining me. He is a co-author of mine.

01:30:44 He is also the president of Our Republic, senior fellow at Our Republic,

01:30:51 and the author of The Next Big Crash, which came out a couple of months ago.

01:30:57 I think in spring, actually.

01:30:59 And it's a great, great book.

01:31:01 He is really, really buttoned up.

01:31:04 Wait until you hear his latest poll.

01:31:05 Now, listen, we're going to answer these questions.

01:31:09 What percentage of Americans want to nationalize health care, energy, and big tech?

01:31:16 Just so you know, that's the first step to become Venezuela.

01:31:19 What is the percentage? 0.56

01:31:22 What's the percentage of Republicans that now want to do that?

01:31:25 how many want a socialist candidate for president in 2028 what was the response on this question

01:31:36 would you support a proposal that would end war in iran and provide the united states with low

01:31:42 oil and gas prices in exchange for completely dismantling the nation of israel and replacing

01:31:50 it with a new palestinian-led nation how many americans said yes to that 0.63

01:31:58 this will open your eyes we go there in 60 seconds first let me tell you about the international

01:32:07 fellowship if you're a christian i want you to think about your faith before you begin you know

01:32:14 anything uh think about your faith before there was the word christian there was abraham moses

01:32:20 david isaiah psalms the prophets jerusalem even the prayers and the scriptures jesus himself

01:32:27 knew from childhood you cannot separate christianity from the jewish authority

01:32:31 story without pulling out its roots and that kills the tree that's what's happening to the 0.51

01:32:37 jewish people and that's why it should matter to you and it deeply if you're a christian the

01:32:43 International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has spent decades turning that shared history

01:32:47 into action. We provide food and shelter and essential help to vulnerable Jewish people

01:32:52 in Israel and around the world. But there's something else Christians can give that just 0.99

01:32:57 doesn't come in a food box. It's a prayer. That's the heart behind the flags of fellowship.

01:33:01 Christians standing openly with the Jewish people and praying for peace in Israel.

01:33:05 Because it's not about taking interest in somebody else's history. Their history is

01:33:10 our history. It runs deeply through our faith. When Jewish people are facing hatred, they should

01:33:16 know the Christians are standing with them. Can we do this one time and get it right? Can we? 0.92

01:33:22 Or are we going to let it end the same way it always ends? Join believers across America in

01:33:27 this powerful act of remembrance and solidarity with Israel. Learn how you can make your church

01:33:41 Justin welcome to the program this this poll that you just are releasing here this week

01:33:49 is absolutely terrifying yes it is it is it's one of the more terrifying polls I've done

01:33:56 I've done dozens of polls over many years as you know you have highlighted a lot of them

01:34:01 One of the key things that I'm always looking for is to find out just how insane America has become, especially with younger people, especially on the left, been tracking it for a long time.

01:34:12 And as this poll illustrates very, very clearly, it's really a series of polls, they all illustrate the same thing. Younger people and the Democratic Party is so far gone and detached from reality that it's hard to believe how crazy things have actually gotten.

01:34:31 And we have a lot of work to do on the right to try to repair this, because eventually younger people are going to be the majority voting bloc. 0.69

01:34:40 And when that happens, God help us, because they have absolutely no idea what's going on in the world, and we're going to talk about it in this poll. 0.99

01:34:50 Okay.

01:34:52 Give me the first one that want socialist president.

01:34:56 How many people want a socialist president overall, Democrats, and then Republicans?

01:35:03 Yeah.

01:35:04 So actually, that poll question is not in this poll.

01:35:07 That's from a different poll that we did a while ago.

01:35:10 No, but the answer to that question is, generally speaking, support for socialist presidential

01:35:17 candidates is pretty low.

01:35:19 But with younger people, it's around 50%.

01:35:22 So about 50% of people say under the age of 30 or so that they want a democratic socialist president in 2028. So they want a socialist now. And when you trace all sorts of other socialist and Marxist questions that I've asked in previous polls, you'll see that it's around 40, 50%. Sometimes it drops below 40%, depending on the question.

01:35:49 But you ask about socialist policies like nationalizing, whole industries.

01:35:53 You ask about, you know, you name it.

01:35:57 Health care, energy, and big tech.

01:35:59 Health care, energy, and big tech.

01:36:01 It is 76%.

01:36:03 76.

01:36:05 Yeah, exactly.

01:36:05 And so widespread support among younger people for socialism.

01:36:09 So you're looking at socialism.

01:36:11 Remember, red-green alliance.

01:36:13 So you've got socialism.

01:36:15 That's the red.

01:36:16 Now let's look at the green. 1.00

01:36:18 Islam and these numbers are terrifying uh let's just look at today we'll look at Islam tomorrow 1.00

01:36:27 and Sharia law which is holy cow are we in trouble um let's look at just the war with Iran here 1.00

01:36:34 in the ongoing war between the United States and Iran who do you hope will ultimately win

01:36:41 And you were asking Americans.

01:36:44 That's right.

01:36:45 Likely voters, not just all Americans, not just registered voters, likely voters.

01:36:49 And what we found is that among all voters, 6% said Iran.

01:36:54 So not a huge percentage. 0.58

01:36:57 74% said the United States, which is the obvious right answer, you would think. 1.00

01:37:02 Correct. 0.95

01:37:02 10% said they don't care, which is pretty astounding.

01:37:06 And 11% said they're not sure.

01:37:07 They're still trying to figure out whether they want, you know, Iran to win the war or not.

01:37:12 I guess they haven't figured that out.

01:37:13 But the really scary thing is not those top line results because the average everyday

01:37:18 American is not insane, but many young people are and a huge chunk of the Democratic Party

01:37:25 is becoming that way.

01:37:26 A quarter of the Democrats surveyed said that they either want Iran to win or they don't

01:37:32 care who wins, but they're not rooting for America.

01:37:34 less than 50% of them said that they want the United States to win this war, less than 50%.

01:37:40 And younger people, it was similar, similar thing. So under 30, the most radical positions taken

01:37:46 throughout all of these polling questions are going to be with younger people and with Democrats.

01:37:50 And it's going to be, depending on the question, around a quarter or so of these groups saying

01:37:58 taking the most radical position that you could.

01:38:01 the second question i actually want to discuss this one because i will discuss it who do you

01:38:09 think is most to blame for the war between iran and the united states this one does not surprise

01:38:15 me go ahead yeah 39 said it's iran's government 41 which was this is the plurality this is the

01:38:23 number one answer said the u.s government 10 said israel's government which is actually interesting

01:38:29 because not a lot of people said that. And 9% said not sure. I did too. But when you add Israel's

01:38:36 government and the US government together, you have a majority of all voters saying, yes, we

01:38:41 think this is either Israel's fault or the United States' fault, primarily the United States.

01:38:46 And when you asked Democrats and young people, it was much, much higher. 77% of Democrats said

01:38:52 it's either Israel's fault or the US government. Most of them said the US government. Same thing

01:38:57 with younger people, the vast majority of them, it was over 60%, said it's either America's fault

01:39:02 or Israel's fault. So I look at this differently. I look at this as, you know, who's most to blame

01:39:09 for the war between Iran and the United States? Well, I mean, we were the ones who pulled the 0.75

01:39:14 trigger. You know what I mean? It's not like they pulled the trigger. We did a preemptive

01:39:18 strike on them. And it was because of Hezbollah and Hamas and also nuclear. So you could look 0.97

01:39:26 at that and say well it was their actions but we were the ones who pulled so i i can look at this

01:39:31 at 39 say it's iran 41 say it's the u.s government without attaching negative views to america would

01:39:41 you does the do the numbers bear that out when you're looking at it or when it's it's go ahead

01:39:47 yeah no if this was the only question we had then i would say yeah there's all sorts of ways you

01:39:53 could read this, maybe. Maybe they're just thinking, well, you know, America's the one

01:39:58 that launched these attacks to begin with. So I think that the important thing to keep in mind,

01:40:04 though, is it's in the context of people saying everything that we just talked about in the first

01:40:09 poll question, you know, where we're asking, who do you hope will win? And you got a quarter of

01:40:14 people saying, basically, I don't care, or I want Iran to win in the Democratic Party and among

01:40:19 younger people. So, and the next question that we'll get to shows that this position is more

01:40:25 radical than it might seem for this one question that we're talking about alone. But the reality

01:40:30 is Iran has been attacking America for a very long time. It's not as though America just woke 0.96

01:40:38 up one day and said, Donald Trump woke up and said, you know, we're going to attack Iran and

01:40:41 we have no reason to. That's not what happened, obviously. So people don't know the history of

01:40:47 this yeah i was gonna say people don't know the history they're not paying any attention

01:40:51 unfortunately for right for the republic's sake here is the really scary one would you support

01:40:59 a proposal that would end the war in iran and provide the united states with low oil and gas

01:41:06 prices in exchange for completely dismantling the nation of israel and replacing it with a new

01:41:14 palestinian-led nation yes yes and i did write that question just to be clear because because

01:41:23 i want to know just how radical these factions have become and the answer to this was absolutely

01:41:31 astounding among all voters 19 said yes they would support that proposal you dismantle israel

01:41:39 you install a Palestinian state and all the Americans get in return is low oil and gas prices

01:41:46 and ending the war in Iran. 19%. So one in five people said that of all voters, only 58% said no. 0.65

01:41:55 So there's a lot of not sure. There's 22% of people, voters, likely voters who say, well,

01:42:01 I'm thinking about it. Maybe I would support something like that. And then when you look at

01:42:06 What right do you have to dismantle a state for oil and gas?

01:42:17 I mean, that is every charge that every leftist has ever made about any war, that they'll do Americans.

01:42:24 The government is only doing it for cheap oil and gas, and they'll go and kill anybody. 0.98

01:42:29 You are saying you will dismantle and basically kill all the Jews for cheap oil and gas. 0.99

01:42:38 It is such a horrific concept. 0.99

01:42:42 I looked at that before I looked at the poll.

01:42:44 I read that, and I kind of laughed when I read it because I'm like, this is a crazy question.

01:42:50 And then I looked at the results.

01:42:52 Go ahead and just break it down by Democrats.

01:42:55 Right.

01:42:55 Right. So 24%. So one in four Democrats say that they would support this proposal. Again,

01:43:02 likely voters. These are voters who are saying this and support among young people. And this

01:43:07 is really the most terrifying part of all of it. I mean, bad enough. We have 19% overall among all

01:43:13 voters, a quarter of Democrats. That's all bad. But younger people in particular have bought this

01:43:19 idea, the idea that we should just get rid of Israel, just dismantle it, destroy it. 46% for 0.93

01:43:26 cheap gas, 46% of those aged 18 to 24 said they would support that 60% of those 25 to 29. And then

01:43:37 I believe it was in the forties or so for people who were in their thirties. And so the higher up

01:43:43 you go, the less likely you are to support this. When you get to age 40 and above, 40 and above,

01:43:50 support for this proposal is, I think, 3%. So basically nobody. So all the support for this

01:43:56 proposal is people under the age of 40. It's so important for people to understand this is how 1.00

01:44:02 radical a lot of our young people have become. They think this kind of policy is completely

01:44:08 acceptable at levels that are 40, 50, 60%. I don't think people understand how extreme

01:44:18 young people have become. And on the right and the left to some extent, but right now we're

01:44:23 talking about mostly people on the left who hold these positions. It is a huge problem. And as

01:44:28 these people grow up and become the primary voting base, these ideas are going to be front

01:44:34 center when they're electing politicians, when public policy is going into place, when we decide

01:44:40 whether we're going to support Israel in the future or not. So this is incredibly important

01:44:45 information. It's not getting anywhere near enough attention how radical young people have become on

01:44:50 this issue. I'm going to take a break and we're going to talk about, okay, okay, okay. So now

01:44:56 what do we do? Because these are, if these numbers don't terrify you, you're dead asleep

01:45:01 because this is your future, and these numbers are—I've never seen anything like this.

01:45:10 I've done this for 49 years, never seen anything like this.

01:45:23 You know, it's been through 1,000 games of catch.

01:45:25 Every mark on it came from being used exactly the way it was meant to be used.

01:45:30 It's kind of the same thing with dogs.

01:45:31 All those years of running through the yard, jumping into the car, chasing things that they were never going to catch,

01:45:36 climbing stairs and following us from room to room, those miles add up.

01:45:40 And that's why the people behind Relief Factor created Friend Factor.

01:45:43 It's a daily supplement specifically designed for dogs to support mobility and healthy inflammatory response as your dog gets older.

01:46:01 They are the result of a life full of walks and adventures and playing

01:46:05 and being part of your family,

01:46:06 but you can give their bodies some extra support for the miles still ahead

01:46:44 46% of those aged 18 to 24

01:46:48 and 60% of those aged 25 to 29

01:46:52 say they would support the proposal

01:46:54 to end Israel,

01:46:56 to dismantle it in exchange for ending the war in Iran 0.55

01:47:00 and receiving low oil and gas prices 0.79

01:47:03 and replacing Israel with a Palestinian-led state.

01:47:10 Justin, what do we do about that?

01:47:14 How could we possibly make an impact?

01:47:16 That is from years of indoctrination.

01:47:20 Yes.

01:47:20 I think the biggest problem that the right has had over the years,

01:47:24 We've we've complained endlessly about how the left controls schools, how how biased the media is, you know, all institutions have moved leftward.

01:47:37 We've been complaining about it for a very long time, but I don't think we have appreciated until very recently just how radical these ideas are.

01:47:45 These are not Bill Maher Democrats who are running your Harvard University. These are far left wing Marxist types that have run it. And I think to understand how to beat this and tackle it and deal with younger people going forward for the next 20 years, we have to understand critical theory.

01:48:05 all of this flows out of critical theory critical theory is a branch of marxism it really comes out

01:48:13 of marxist thinking in germany the frankfurt school in the 19th century struck in the 1800s

01:48:18 it gets exported into america through universities like harvard and columbia and yale and places like

01:48:25 that and then eventually becomes deeply embedded within the left most people don't know what it is

01:48:32 but they believe these ideas and what critical theory is centered on is the idea that everything

01:48:38 can be viewed through this lens where there's oppressors and then there's the oppressed and the

01:48:43 oppressed people are the good guys and the oppressors are the bad guys and basically

01:48:49 anything in society anytime any group in society they break everybody down into different demographics

01:48:54 and groups does any of this sound familiar by the way they break everybody down in different

01:48:57 demographics and groups, the people who are perceived to have more power or more money are

01:49:02 there because they're oppressors. Everybody else is oppressed. And then you tell the story of any

01:49:10 given society or culture, history, through this lens of the oppressor and the oppressed. And the

01:49:16 reason the oppressors have what they have is because they've mistreated the oppressed people.

01:49:21 So critical race theory comes out of critical theory. This whole idea of systemic racism,

01:49:27 this idea that african americans can't it's not possible for them to be successful as a group

01:49:32 because white people are are systematic systematically holding them back this idea

01:49:37 that women have been held back for all of these all of these things the left seems to the right 0.95

01:49:43 like it doesn't make a lot of sense at times because they've got radical feminists and radical

01:49:48 islamicists and they're in the same camp and we say how is this possible that you can have these

01:49:53 two groups or LGBT people supporting, you know, the Hamas. How can that possibly be? It doesn't

01:49:59 make sense. It makes sense because they see the world as they're all part of the oppressed group. 0.99

01:50:04 And so what they want to do is dismantle everything that exists. That's part of the 0.98

01:50:10 oppressor category, everything that's traditional. And then what comes next is they don't agree on

01:50:16 that. Some people want Sharia law. Some people want radical feminist led societies. They don't

01:50:21 agree but but what they do agree now is that we have to dismantle everything that's traditional

01:50:26 because that's part of the oppressor category and so to understand the left yeah go ahead go ahead

01:50:33 no understand we have to to understand the left we have to understand this and we have to attack

01:50:39 it head on this is the key to beating them in the long term i know what our next book is i want to

01:50:45 talk to you because i i know what our next book needs to be justin haskins co-author of mine also

01:52:39 To tell you a story, there is a suburb north of Dallas called The Colony.

01:52:54 Nice homes, steep, steep front steps.

01:52:59 A few weeks ago, a woman named Erin Howell looked at her doorbell camera,

01:53:04 and she saw a delivery man on those stairs.

01:53:06 the airline had lost her suitcase now was found somebody had to carry it to her door

01:53:13 that somebody was 81 years old you can see it on the video one step stop breathe

01:53:21 grip the handle one more step stop breathe bag is heavy stairs are really steep the man is 81

01:53:30 But he doesn't quit.

01:53:34 Erin went outside and she asked the question all of us would ask.

01:53:38 Why are you doing this?

01:53:40 Why are you doing this?

01:53:44 His name is Don Johnson.

01:53:47 He's been married to his wife for 57 years.

01:53:51 Her name is Josephine.

01:53:56 Josephine has cancer. 1.00

01:53:58 Treatments cost what treatments cost. 1.00

01:54:01 Prescriptions cost more.

01:54:03 So for three years, Don has been driving around North Texas

01:54:07 delivering other people's lost luggage to help pay for his wife's care.

01:54:14 Aaron asked,

01:54:16 Why this job? Why something so hard? You're 81.

01:54:23 He said it was the only job that would hire him.

01:54:26 He didn't complain. He didn't have bitterness.

01:54:29 In fact, you know, the way the men of that generation are, I mean, it was just a statement of fact.

01:54:37 No, it was the only job that would hire me.

01:54:38 He was fine.

01:54:40 Bills are here.

01:54:41 Your work is there.

01:54:42 Go.

01:54:45 So he's carrying the suitcase.

01:54:50 But more baggage than that.

01:54:51 All day long, Don hands people back what they lost.

01:54:54 a wedding dress, a business suit

01:54:56 a kid's stuffed bear that missed the connecting flight

01:54:59 he gets to watch their face light up

01:55:03 as they answer the door

01:55:04 and then he drives home to the one thing

01:55:08 he cannot afford to lose

01:55:10 for 57 years

01:55:15 a lifetime of knowing which side of the bed she sleeps on

01:55:19 how she takes her coffee

01:55:20 what she's thinking about before she says it

01:55:24 This is a man who made a promise in his 20s.

01:55:32 He's still keeping it in his 80s.

01:55:36 One stare at a time.

01:55:42 Aaron posted the video and started a fundraiser.

01:55:47 And America does what America does.

01:55:49 When we're not busy being angry at each other and hating each other.

01:55:52 Thousands of strangers gave

01:55:55 Hundreds of thousands of dollars

01:55:57 About 700,000

01:55:58 Messages poured in from people

01:56:00 Who will never ever meet them

01:56:02 Over and over

01:56:03 The same words

01:56:04 We're praying for you

01:56:05 We're praying for you

01:56:06 We're praying for you

01:56:07 A local TV crew came out

01:56:09 Don told him

01:56:10 He thought he might actually be able to stop working

01:56:13 Stay at home 0.78

01:56:14 Take care of her full time

01:56:16 And then it fell apart

01:56:20 gofundme shut down the campaign company says something in how it was presented just didn't

01:56:30 meet its rules it hasn't said what family says it's a technicality but every dollar that people

01:56:40 gave, went back.

01:56:47 We don't know the whole story yet.

01:56:50 Maybe it gets set right.

01:56:53 Maybe some details look different when they come out.

01:56:58 But before any of that, the TV crew sat down with Josephine.

01:57:02 They asked how she was doing.

01:57:07 She didn't talk about money.

01:57:08 she talked about the strangers

01:57:11 who said they were praying for her

01:57:12 and then she said three words

01:57:14 I can face it

01:57:25 actually four

01:57:26 she said that was the big difference

01:57:31 she called it

01:57:33 a joyful feeling

01:57:34 That's not a woman who got a check

01:57:39 That's a woman who found out she wasn't alone

01:57:40 You know, a company can refund a donation

01:57:46 But nobody can refund a prayer

01:57:47 And it was already delivered

01:57:49 I'm so worried about her

01:57:56 I'm worried about, for three years

01:57:59 Don Johnson's been bringing people

01:58:01 Things that they thought were gone for good

01:58:04 And he's carrying those bags upstairs every day at 81

01:58:09 But for a whole week

01:58:10 A whole country of strangers turned around

01:58:13 And carried something up his stairs

01:58:15 Not money

01:58:16 But courage

01:58:17 And faith

01:58:19 Prayer

01:58:22 Belief in miracles

01:58:23 And they carried him up the stairs

01:58:28 For the woman he's been carrying all along

01:58:30 this is what I love about America

01:58:39 this is who we really are

01:58:42 even though the money went back

01:58:45 the courage didn't

01:58:47 you know

01:58:55 you know the song

01:58:57 Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

01:58:58 here. You know how that came to be? Guy worked for Montgomery Ward. He lived in a really

01:59:16 small little house and had an even smaller little office. But he was the marketing guy

01:59:24 for Montgomery Ward.

01:59:29 And he had done all kinds of marketing for him,

01:59:31 all kinds of ads.

01:59:34 They were looking for their next big Christmas campaign.

01:59:44 And they came to him and they said,

01:59:45 hey, we have this idea of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

01:59:51 I'd like you to ride it.

01:59:52 And he started riding it.

01:59:54 And somewhere in between, his wife was diagnosed terminal.

02:00:04 And he stopped writing.

02:00:11 He would come home every day after work,

02:00:13 and he would play with his children.

02:00:18 Mom in the other room, fighting for her life.

02:00:21 mom in the hospital

02:00:24 fighting for her life

02:00:25 and he decided

02:00:26 best thing I could do for my kids

02:00:29 is to write this

02:00:30 and he would tell them the story

02:00:32 and write the poem

02:00:35 it wasn't a song yet

02:00:37 it was a poem

02:00:37 and Montgomery Ward

02:00:45 found out about this

02:00:47 after it was a huge success

02:00:51 Huge success.

02:00:56 Took the nation by storm.

02:01:04 Gene Autry wants to record it.

02:01:09 Montgomery Ward decides,

02:01:11 we're going to give the rights to you.

02:01:15 The writer.

02:01:16 They belong to Montgomery Ward.

02:01:18 He wrote it for them.

02:01:20 they wanted to help with the bills.

02:01:29 I'm wondering where that airline is.

02:01:38 Are they even aware they've got an 81-year-old guy

02:01:40 schlepping luggage up the stairs for people who's in this situation?

02:01:44 Boy, you want to do something that is far more powerful than fly the friendly skies. 0.87

02:01:55 Take care of her bills.

02:01:58 I know it's a lot.

02:02:01 And I know you guys live on the edge all the time.

02:02:04 But, you know, you could cut your advertising budget back on CNN.

02:02:08 Nobody's watching it anyway.

02:02:12 Maybe pay for her bills.

02:02:14 I know I'd fly that airline.

02:02:16 I would see that airline in something as somebody actually cares.

02:02:23 They're not just doing an advertising slogan they care about, not only me,

02:02:26 they care about their employees.

02:02:28 They care about the person who is in the lowest position of their company.

02:02:38 I don't know.

02:02:39 I would think there would be a lot of people like me that would love to tell that story.

02:02:44 But tonight, somewhere outside Dallas, there's an 81-year-old man who's going to set his keys on the kitchen counter.

02:03:01 after another day of other people's stares

02:03:09 and his wife of 57 years will say

02:03:13 how are you doing how are your knees

02:03:15 and he'll say oh they're fine honey

02:03:19 and she'll know he's lying

02:03:25 because after 57 years she always knows

02:03:28 but you let him

02:03:31 because that's how he says I love you

02:03:36 after 57 years he knows love isn't what you feel on good days

02:03:45 it's what you carry up the stairs on the hard ones

02:03:52 God bless Don and God bless you Josephine Johnson

02:03:56 and hopefully I'm going to be able to

02:04:03 tell the story of how these guys

02:04:07 their bills were taken care of

02:04:09 and hopefully it'll be an airline

02:04:11 that I know all of us will want to fly

02:04:12 until that time

02:04:15 we'll just keep them in our prayers

02:04:17 they fly higher than any airline anyway

02:04:21 more in a minute

02:04:27 I'll tell you about American financing.

02:04:29 There may be no number on your credit card statement

02:04:31 more psychologically comforting than minimum payment due.

02:04:35 They put it right there, the statement.

02:04:37 Minimum payment, how thoughtful.

02:04:39 Except that's not the number that should have your attention.

02:04:42 You look at the interest rate.

02:04:43 That's the number.

02:04:45 You're carrying credit card debt at 20% or more.

02:04:47 Making comfortable-looking payments every month

02:04:50 doesn't make the interest less expensive.

02:04:52 If you're a homeowner, American financing may be able to help you

02:04:55 use that equity in your home to consolidate that high interest debt into something far more

02:04:59 manageable. And the difference can be significant. Listeners of this show save an average of $800 a

02:05:05 month. And that's money that can go back into your monthly budget instead of disappearing into

02:05:09 high interest obligations. So don't just look at what they're asking you to pay this month. Look

02:05:13 at what they're actually charging you for the privilege of owning the money, them owning the

02:05:18 money. You have zero upfront interest and zero upfront fees. You may delay up to two mortgage

02:05:25 payments. Do it today without resetting your mortgage. If you have low interest, you don't

02:05:29 want to reset that mortgage. Talk to American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to

02:05:36 AmericanFinancing.net. NMLS 182334, NMLSConsumerAccess.org. Average savings based on borrowers

02:05:42 to save over $199.99. Glenn Beck is back after this.

02:05:55 you know

02:06:18 i'm getting some email now from people who are saying you know glenn why stop would you stop

02:06:23 stop these stories. I thought that was a beautiful story. You know, my job is to inform you. My job

02:06:28 is to warn you. My job is to give you perspective. But my job also is to make you feel. And I don't

02:06:35 want you to feel fear and anger. It's too much of that. I want you to feel like you're surrounded

02:06:42 by good, because you are good people, truth, beauty, real love.

02:06:51 I hope you felt that story.

02:06:58 I have to tell you something also.

02:07:00 At the end of the show, because it's the way she wanted it, she didn't even want it at

02:07:04 the end of the show, but I'm doing it anyway.

02:07:06 After more than 20 years behind my control board,

02:07:12 Sarah Sullivan has made the decision to move off the board.

02:07:15 She's going to be assisting with the launch of Torch Audio starting today.

02:07:21 And she didn't want me to say anything.

02:07:23 She didn't even tell me Friday was her last day.

02:07:25 I knew it was coming.

02:07:26 I didn't know Friday was the last day.

02:07:28 I find out afterwards because she's like,

02:07:30 I don't want anybody to think, I don't want anything to say about me.

02:07:34 But Sarah, I am going to say this.

02:07:35 You have been mission critical to the success of this program for so long.

02:07:43 Having somebody that can read my scattered brain for so long and be the extension of me in the control booth has been a tremendous blessing.

02:07:58 And we have somebody who is great.

02:08:00 BJ is replacing you.

02:08:03 But it will take him years to be able to come close.

02:08:07 Anybody would take years to be able to replace you.

02:08:11 I am grateful for everything that you have done.

02:08:14 I am grateful for all of the advice, all of the laughs.

02:08:17 And I am grateful for our friendship in the studio over the years.

02:08:21 And I know that will continue for many long years to come.

02:08:24 But we're going to miss you here on the show.

02:08:27 We're going to miss you. 1.00

02:08:28 And BJ, you have gigantic shoes to fill because she had enormous feet. 0.94

02:08:34 I mean, I don't know if you ever saw her. 1.00

02:08:35 If she's enormous, it wasn't like she was really good at her job. 0.94

02:08:38 She just had enormous feet. 0.98

02:08:40 Anyway, let's see.

02:08:42 Is there anything else that we have to cover?

02:08:45 Tomorrow on the program, I'm going to tell you about,

02:08:49 and I don't even know if you know this, Jason,

02:08:50 but there is a new move for national ID,

02:08:57 Except it won't be national ID.

02:08:59 It will be global ID.

02:09:01 Wait until you hear how this is coming together.

02:09:04 Because we're all rejecting it now.

02:09:06 But I'm telling you, we are one emergency away.

02:09:10 Because it's all being laid into place right now, globally.

02:09:13 And I'm going to explain it to you.

02:09:16 And as soon as there is an emergency, oh, we will all have global ID.

02:09:22 That's coming up on tomorrow's program.
