Burning Teslas Because You Hate Elon Is TERRORISM | Guest: John Dodson | 3/11/25

March 11, 2025 2h 7m
X was hit with a major DDOS attack yesterday, and a pro-Palestinian group took credit for taking the website down. However, Elon Musk claims the IP addresses appeared to originate from Ukraine. Glenn discusses the attack and wonders if Russia is actually the country behind the attack. Glenn and Pat also discuss a green card holder facing deportation after advocating for hate and division. Glenn lays out why our government has every right to deport this individual. Glenn explains why our government is at fault for the rising inflation for not working within the capitalistic framework and spending money the government doesn't actually have. If you're blowing up Teslas because you want to discourage people from buying Teslas, you're a terrorist. Glenn discusses Secretary of State Marco Rubio's latest move to cut 83% of USAID contracts and explains why he would have cut 100%. Author of "The Unarmed Truth" John Dodson joins to discuss the lawsuit Mexico filed against U.S. gunmakers, blaming them for the drug cartel violence plaguing Mexico. Why are your taxes paying for union members at TSA instead of protecting the airports? Glenn argues that airport security needs to be privatized. Glenn calls out a Salt Lake Tribune reporter for doxxing DataRepublican's husband.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I don't know if I can make it, but one is what happened to X, the attack on X yesterday. Who did it? And why does this matter to you? It's very important.
Second thing is, I got a green card. I'm going to go protest.
Should that be allowed? And Mexico with the tariffs is saying, we're not going to fix anything because you guys, you guys are shipping guns down to the cartels. And that's why we're going to sue your gun manufacturers.
Are you now? We'll tell you about that and somebody who has the hard facts on it going to be joining us here in just a minute. In fact, he's the whistleblower that was the guy who ran it out fast and furious.
He knows the facts on what's going on with the cartels in Mexico. He's coming up all in the next 60 minutes first.
I've always believed in being ready, not out of fear, but out of common sense. It's the hope for the best, you know, but pack an umbrella kind of thing.
A lot has happened in just the past few weeks. And I think it's really fair to say a lot's going to happen in the upcoming ones.
I want you to imagine a supply chain disruption. Think about what happened during COVID, maybe worse, but this time China has most of our medication.
Most of our businesses, you know, are all connected to China. What happens if we stop getting our medicines from China? We're not ready for that yet.
Jace Medical has a plan for you. It's called the Jace case.
It's a box of of life-saving medications your medications that you keep on hand for when you need them this is about taking charge of your health and being prepared don't leave your well billing uh weight well being to chance don't do it something special when you order your jace case today you use the promo code back b-e-c-k go to jace.com and you're going to get discount. Don't wait for the unexpected to catch you off guard.
Be ready at Jace.com, promo code Beck. Filling in for the very sick and weak and feverish and probably vomiting and barely able to walk, Stu Breguier is Pat Gray.
Hello, Stu. Or Pat.
Whoever I am. Hello, Glenn.
glenn how are you ah good perfect had a great

show today listen to you this oh thank you um all right let me uh let me start with x here so yesterday there was a major uh massive cyber attack on x shut things down for quite a quite a it. Musk came out and said

it has all been traced

to the Ukrainian area.

Okay.

Now this is this is very complex and really important that we figure this out these are spoofed ip addresses and they all point into ukraine now i guess musk is saying you know he's part of the Trump administration and there's an opposition to USAID for Ukraine and their fight against Russia. But that doesn't to me, that doesn't make sense.
I mean, Zelensky was really stupid when he was in the White House, but I don't think he's this stupid. OK, Alexei, Alexei Svet, who is an expert on this, he says, I mean, Ukraine is trying to get us to not pull our CIA and our intelligence off of the field.
That would be just stupid. Larry Kudlow was on with Musk yesterday, and he suggested that Russia might be framing Ukraine.
so here's what happened. The attack hit.
Thousands of users were cut off from X. Now, after that happened, a third group came in, the pro Hamas group, Dark Storm.
They claimed to be the attackers and giving the, you know, DDoS attack on X x they have targeted the uae's ministry of defense and lax if you remember that when that system went down recently so they have some cyber muscles now musk said it was a resource heavy hit from and i'm quoting, from a large coordinated group and or country.

So how is this happening and what does it mean? Well, X is obviously a huge hub for raw, unfiltered voices. You disrupt it, you choke free speech, the only real free speech I think in the world um i don't believe that it's Ukraine.
For pro-Hamas, I guess it could be perceived as a strike against, you know, Musk's alignment with Trump or Israel. But it's really more destabilizing.
You destabilize X and you start to sow the seeds of chaos, distrust.

It weakens the platform that is really shaping and responsible for global change and discourse.

So who did it?

Ukraine has motive, but little logic on this.

Why drive the U.S. even further away?

It doesn't make sense to me. If you want to bet on the Ukraine thing, I would put my money on Russia.
I mean, they have built these, you know, these cyber hack shops in the basements of all these Russian, you know, 20-somethings. Mom, I need another.
Mother, I need another sandwich, you know, kind of there in their basement in their underpants.

And it fits with the way they handle things, pinning the blame on Ukraine to try to get us to break away from Ukraine.

I mean, this is how stupid everybody is.

They're like, Donald Trump, see, I told you he was in bed with Russia. No, this is negotiation.
Okay? The pro-Hamas group has the claim, the history, but this is a scale that really appears at this point to only be able to be pulled off if you have state backing. Now, let me throw something else in that is possible.
A rival tech titan or a wildcard nation. What happens with a DDoS attack is it floods servers with traffic, and usually that's with botnets.
And they hijack a site with these botnets.

And they are, I mean, it's just wave after wave after wave.

This is all done electronically.

Thousands of bots, to get that done, you need a pretty sophisticated command system.

Know-how, how to dodge the defenses of X, which I would imagine are pretty robust at this point that's not cheap that's not easy it's not oh look what i've done i've hacked x that's not what's happening here this screams big money and big coordination think state actors or elite elite hacktivists with deep, deep pockets from maybe a state actor. So there's a possibility that maybe these aren't separate attacks.
Imagine a puppet master, like a tech rival, eyeing, you know, digital dominance. They want to shake X from the game.
They orchestrate using Ukraine and

pro-Hamas. Those are just pawns in this.
Or consider this, X's outages could be a test run

for bigger targets, elections, markets, infrastructure. Maybe it's China.
I don't

know. And that's the scary part.
Cyber warfare is evolving. And right now, X is the lab rat.
And I don't think we have an idea at all at this point on who it is.

The evidence, however, leads to state involvement.

That's not good.

Because we right now have all of Europe saying that we no longer have their values. And they hate Musk.
And we've seen how they've been using Brazil to go after Musk. It could be Europe, our supposed ally.
The pro-Hamas hit. This group does not have this kind of power, I think.
It doesn't have this kind of power. Here's the thing you need to take away from this.
Digital is now, it's no longer a vein. It's an artery.
You cut our arteries. We bleed to death quickly.
These attacks that are are going after our our arteries of communication, of business, of any kind of transactions, anything that threatens business, our freedom of expression. that's a new battlefield.
Remember, it was Russia and Putin that said the next war, World War Three, will not be fought with missiles. It will be fought with ones and zeros.
Before we all start pointing fingers, maybe we should start asking questions. Are we doing anything to defend our systems here? Because we need to stay sharp.
This is, in my opinion, this is short of, but we're approaching a digital 9-11. This is maybe the first World Trade Center attack where it didn't really hit anything.
It did damage, but it didn't take the building down. That's what this is.
This is, what was that, Pat, was that the 95, 96 World Trade Center attack? Yeah, something like that. Okay, now maybe 93.
It's not going to take that long to get it right this time. This is a wake up call to everybody in the Western world, but especially here in America.
We need to know who this was. All right.
Now, while we're talking about enemies of the state, let's talk about the enemies within.

There's this big debate over the green card thing. I got a green card so I can disrupt.
No, no, no. This is about Mahmoud Khalili.
he's a green card holder that is now facing being deported because he is a guy sowing the seeds of dissent of dissent of violence he is the guy who was responsible for much of the bad stuff that was happening at columbia university um and now no trump he's going in with immigration and ice and he just hates everybody that's different no no that's not what's happening here this guy is not a citizen not a citizen he was leading the protest really violent awful ugly anti-semitic protest at Columbia University not, anti-Semitic protests at Columbia University. Not just anti-Semitic, but leaning towards the whole Islam is great, we should have Sharia law kind of ideas.
This cannot be tolerated here in America. He holds a green card.
What is that? That is a ticket, a golden ticket to live and work in America. But just like Willy Wonka, you can be ejected from the tour of the chocolate factory at any time.
There's some fine print there that you might want to take half glasses and read half the contract like they did in Willie. It's not a passport.
It's not citizenship. So let's look at this.
You're handed a gas pass to the greatest estate on earth. The? The greatest estate ever built, marble floors, golden chandeliers.
It's the greatest. Nobody thought it could ever be this great, but it is.
The view that stretches on forever and ever. And you've been invited to come and sit at the table, have some wine, build a life, but you don't own the deed.
The owners are being very, very generous. And they said, stay as long as you want.
Now honor the house. You got to live by the rules.
Honor the house. So you've been invited to sit at this table, eat your fill, live like you're somebody that is part of the family, but then you start smashing the windows.
You start whispering to other members in the house about, this place is bad. This place has got to go.
We should torch the place. How long before that key is snatched from your hand by the owner? And who in their right mind would say, you can't take the key from him? No one.
If you're a family member, if you care about the house, no one would say, dad, you're being a little unreasonable. He was only trying to torch the kitchen and the guest wing.
No, he's a guest. And that's where we are with this guy and so many others.
Every green card holder that mistakes privilege for a birthright, you're in for a surprise. There's a new sheriff.
There's a new sheriff in town. He's great.
We love him. It's a revocable lease.
That's what that is. It's not a title.
You're not lord of the manor. He's got a revocable lease with you.
And here we are today. We're all like, I don't know this.
I mean, he should be able to sow chaos and terror, spread all the anti-American seeds he wants. No, he cannot.
Here's why. A green card will make you a permanent resident, legal, but not a citizen.
You don't vote. You don't sit on juries.
By the way, those two things are responsibilities, not rights. So you have no responsibilities as a citizen, which means you have no rights as a citizen.
And if you step out of line, you get sent back. The Constitution wraps its arms around citizens, freedom of speech, assembly, all of that.
Non-citizens? Nah. There's an embrace there, but it's very, very, very very loose supreme court made a rule back in 1893 when i was just a kid with fong yu ting oh wait until you hear the story of fong yu ting very exciting case i'll start there in 60 seconds first here's a simple truth that people used to know when something like the power grid fails and, oh, it will fail.
It will fail. You just sit around waiting for somebody else to get the lights back on or you take care of it yourself.
How do you do that? Well, you were prepared for this months or even years before it happened in most cases because you went to my patriot supply they have you covered right now they've just released their new grid doctor 3300 it's the first solar generator with revolutionary emp intersect intercept technology it protects your power from an emp attack keeping you and your family safe and comfortable it It has an industry leading 3,300 watts of power.

10 seconds, station ID.

Well, back in my day in 1893, there was this young whippersnapper called Fong Yu Ting.

And he went, his case was taken to the Supreme Court.

I won't bore you with all the details because I was too bored to really read them. But I do know that the outcome is Congress can deport non-citizens at will.
There is no right to stay here. It doesn't exist.
You break the law, you threaten the nation, buh-bye. That's not cruelty.
That's the rule book. So this guy kicking him out, that's not cruelty.
That's not a tragedy of his rights being violated. He has no rights.
It's privileges revoked. Not rights, privileges.
Now think about this again. You're inviting somebody in your home.
You're welcome to the couch. You can have all the coffee you want.
You have the peace and quiet. But if you start carving up the furniture or plotting to blow the roof off, I don't owe you a bed anymore or matches to light the fuse.
Period. America is exactly the same.
We have flung the doors open so wide. Millions walk through.
And I'm happy about this to chase their dreams. But that comes with this deal.
Don't tear down. You don't do that.
You can't take the things that are holding this whole thing together and start taking the beams down. You can't.
You're not a citizen. You know, if you hate the beams, you're really rude.

But you're also a massive risk. Get the hell out of here.
And by the way, I think we have enough cracks in our foundations without handing out free hammers. I don't know about you, but I'm like, hey, we shouldn't give hammers to everybody that comes in here.
We should take those hammers away. So, if history is a teacher and that teacher's got some scars to show you, this isn't about free speech because that's sacred for you and me.
We're citizens. If you're born here or you swear an oath, you have skin in the fight.
You can rant. You can rave.
You can burn flags if you want. That's your call.
Your family, you've earned the voice. Green card holders, you're our guest.
You know, you want to do whatever you want? That's fine. Get the hell out.
Period. We have to guard the gate.
You see what's happening in Europe. It's not good.
It's not good at all. We cannot go down that route.
Green card holder, you're preaching terror. Bye bye.
Stirring chaos. See you later.
Spitting on the values that open the freaking door for you? Bye-bye. Want to stay? Build.
Don't burn. Period.
All right. Back in just a second, we're going to talk about what's really going on down in the border for Mexico.
Next. This is Glenn Beck.
Man, the world is moving so fast and everything is, I mean, everything's at a crisis level. Just last week, China slapped a 15% tax on American pork and beef exports.
Retaliation, they say, for new tariffs coming out of Washington. Meanwhile, the meat from overseas flooding us.
Beef from places like Brazil, pork from God only knows where. Raised on farms, we can't check.
You think we have security? We don't. Why are we gambling with our food supply? Here's the good news.
Good ranchers is fighting back with meat that's 100 american from ranches where the stars and straps still mean something you know me this is not just about eating well it's about holding the line maha yes but also protecting our ranchers our farmers right now i want you to go to good ranchers.com and use the promo code back you're going to get free ground beef chicken breast or wild caught salmon in every box for a year plus 25 off when you subscribe to good ranchers do it now it's promo code back good ranchers.com that's american meat delivered good ranchers.com promo code back glenn back stew steve, Jason Whitlock and me, Pat Gray. Listen to all your favorite conservative voices at BlazeTV dot com promo code Glenn.
Yeah, hello, America. we're going to get back to the border and what's happening with guns here in just a minute.
I want to stop before we get there and just do a little mop up on a couple of other stories that are out there. They're in the newsletter today.
You can get it by going to glenbeck.com and signing up for our newsletter there are several stories uh that are out about how the epa has just cut uh their budgets and everybody's freaking out about those those just started doing all this stuff and they have no right to do it and usa id a rubio cut a whole buttload of money out of that and said we're not going to give it to you um and everybody is saying we've got to feed the world okay okay hey no we don't have to we should be charitable and we already are the most charitable people this USAID is not about charity it's a CIA up that's what. A CIA op.
I'll give you the details on that. But let me just first give you a little just a little comparison here on on what we're spending and how big this nightmare actually is.
OK. We have a budget.
We spend $6.3 trillion. Nobody can even fathom that.
Okay. If you look at Walmart, they pulled in $611 billion.
This is the biggest store, the biggest revenue king in the world. Okay.
$611 billion. How much, how many times have you shopped at Walmart or done, bought anything from Walmart in the last year? Now, if you're in New York, you would look at Walmart.
Never. Okay.
But for the rest of people, we're at Walmart all the time okay so Walmart we are spending our government's spending is like every store every truck and employee combined for 10 Walmarts that's what we spend in one year year. Let me give this a better way.
Take all of the Fortune 500 companies. Now, at the top are things like Apple, Amazon, Google, ExxonMobil, and then 496 other massive global companies.
Okay. Their total revenue for a year is $18.1 trillion.
That's the 500 largest corporations in the world. $18.1 trillion is their revenue.
Our government is spending 6.3 trillion that's 35 percent of what these companies the 500 biggest companies in the world think about what they're making what they're providing what they're doing imagine if we spent 35 percent of what they are making and building and everything. If we bought 35% of that in oil, in computers, whatever, if we got 35% and purchased that, but that's what we're spending, but we're not getting any of that stuff.
One third of what America's biggest, 500 biggest companies earn spent by our government. That's kind of big.
So you look at the headcount of the Fortune 500. Headcount.
How many people do the fortune 500 companies employ 29.7 total our government employs 10 of that number what look at america as a company because it is gang i'm sorry to say it it has to be run like your family or a company or we go broke. And I don't know if you know this, we've gone broke.
10% are employees versus them. Again, think about everything that those 500 companies produce.
All of the cars, all of everything that they produce. We have 10% of their workforce.
What do we produce? That's not including the military, by the way. One in 10 Fortune 500 workers could be a federal employee.
Now, how fast are we growing? In 2000, the budget was $1.8 trillion. In 2023, two years ago, our budget was $6.3 trillion.
That's an increase of spending by 250%. Have we grown? I mean, it's not a problem if you're going to make more money to spend more money.
That's fine. You'd spend more money and make more money and you never have a problem with it.
Has our government provided 250 percent growth? Has our Fortune 500 companies giving us 250% of growth? No. So why are we spending 250% more? Some of this is inflation.
But what causes inflation? The government spending money it doesn't have and printing and borrowing money. So there's no way around this.
It's not the capitalist system. It's the fact that the government doesn't work within the framework of common sense or a capitalist system.
I hate to say capitalist system. I just mean balance the budget.
Fortune 500 companies churn out cars, phones, oils, medicine, everything that you use every day. And it's efficient because it has to or it will go out of business.
See, the market demands results. We don't for some reason.
We spend all of that money, all of that money, 35% of what all 500 of these companies actually make in a year. We spend 35% and we don't demand any results.
Have things really gotten that much better? Do you believe we've gotten 250% better as a nation? Do you believe we've gotten 25%? Do you believe we're 2.5% better than we were 25 years ago? I don't. So here's how they've been spending your money.
And this is why all of these cuts matter. $1.1 trillion on DEI programs.
You could even say it was noble.

I don't think it was, but let's say you do. Was it $1.1 trillion in value for one year? i don't think so 312 million in loans you ready for this one to kids for covid i don't even know how that happens 17 billion dollars in epa dei grants those were canceled billions that could have fixed roads or i don't know fed our veterans gotten some of our veterans off the streets.
The VA, they announced yesterday that they have renegotiated 2% of their contracts and saved almost a billion dollars with 2% of the contracts renegotiated. If 2% saves that much just for the VA, let let's just start with the va what are the how much savings would happen with the other 98 of the contracts and now let's take that out of the va what would happen if we renegotiated oh i don't know 50 of all of the government contracts and line them up with common sense.
You have to fight to survive every single day, but the government doesn't have to. When you're a business, I don't care how big you are, ExxonMobil could go out of business.
Somebody comes up with a better way, a better thing, they'll go out of business. And there's nothing that could stop that.
Because they don't have guns that says, you will buy oil from us. They don't have that.
The government has that gun. You will buy your government services from us, no matter how much we suck, no matter how much we waste, you're buying it from us.
Oh, and by the way, if we want to waste money beyond people's imagination, we can, and we're going to bill your kids and your grandkids, and they'll be in debt forever. I don't think so.
No, thank you. Our national debt is $34 trillion.
Our deficit in 23 23 it's bigger now but our deficit in the in the last confirmed numbers in 2023 is 1.7 trillion dollars that means we spend 1.7 trillion that we don't have we have to borrow that money that's 1.72 trillion dollars more than we can collect from people our gdp is two is 26 trillion dollars our debt to gdp is 130 our deficit is 6.5 percent of our gdp imagine a company that has a debt 1.3 times its revenue.

It doesn't last.

It goes out of... Imagine a company that has a debt 1.3 times its revenue.

It doesn't last.

It goes out of business.

But it goes out of business because the banks won't lend it any more money.

Nobody will lend it money.

Everybody in the stock market will take their money out and say,

I don't believe in that one anymore.

But we have the full faith and credit of the United States of America because we're big

you can know the world can't last without us they're about to gang it can tax you and print cash so you know that's not a fix that's a delay a delay of the inevitable 34 trillion dollars in dollar bills would circle the entire planet 130 times. The deficit of $1.7 trillion is three times the Walmart revenue.
Every year, the family budget, $50,000 a year. If you spend $65,000 a year, you have to borrow $15,000 every year.
In 10 years, you owe triple your income. And then you have to go get a loan for that and you have to keep renewing that loan, what do you think your interest rates would be? What do you think the bank would say you are as a credit risk? What do you think your credit card interest rate would be if they would even issue you one? That's what we're facing right now now a business has to sell what people want or it goes out of business a restaurant run by the federal government serves you cold soup littered with flies and they don't care because if you don't buy it it doesn't matter to them you have to pay for it anyway your great great grandkids are going to have to pay for it anyway no competition no accountability just a blank check the government has our credit card and it has no limit it swipes 6.3 trillion4.6 trillion, and then charges the rest.

And no bank says stop.

Interest compounds.

One day, we have to pay for it.

There are cracks in the dam.

$1.1 trillion on DEI programs.

That's two Fortune 500 companies' revenue.

Gone.

Did that make us safer or stronger or richer?

$17 billion in EPA grants?

Canceled.

But why spend it in the first place?

That's 28 Walmart profit margins.

$312 million to kids for their companies at COVID.

What?

Absurd.

Who approved that?

I know it's pocket change, but not to you, not to me.

We'll never make that kind of money to be able to give it to the government in our taxes.

Every million counts when you're talking 6.3 trillion.

900 million from 2% of VA contracts?

That's one agency. Multiply that across the government.
Waste is not the exception. It's the rule.
Cut spending. Boost our revenue.
Easy to say. Hard to do.
Cutting programs means somebody's going to hurt and they're going to lose votes.

You have to or we're all going to lose.

Waste is the lowest hanging fruit.

What are we doing?

Why is the house on fire and we're debating paint colors? Why? We have a budget. We have to hit the budget.
We have to turn around. If we don't, the fire wins.

Okay, so Rubio is

cutting the budget

dramatically. What is it, Pat?

85% of the USAID

programs he's cutting.

Let me just put you at your kitchen table here for a second.

You got the bills spread out all over your table and you're like,

where's all this money going?

I can't afford to meet all of the bills.

Where's the money going?

And then you see on your credit card,

a charge for 70,000 for a musical in Ireland.

And you're like, honey, right? That's the first thing you would say. Honey, did we sign up for a musical in Ireland? You know how close we are to bankruptcy? What the hell is this? Well, I just thought it would be nice.
No more spending on musicals in Ireland for the love of Pete. But that's what's been happening with your tax dollars through usa id and it's much worse than that so 83 percent of all of the usa id programs are getting the axe amen and amen if you have been listening to me for the last 15 or 20 years i've been circling usa id over and over and over again really bad collection of radicals that are spending your tax dollars on things you don't know about this is a long overdue reckoning okay the united states agency for international development notice that it's called us aid but they never say it that way.
It looks like that, but it's not. It's USAID.
That's what it's called. Not USAID, USAID.
Why? Because it's the Agency for International Development. It rolled into the scene in 1961, courtesy of John F.
Kennedy. And it was supposed to be our shining beacon in the Cold War, a way to win the hearts and minds, showing the world what freedom and generosity could look like.
Remember, we're in the Cold War. We're trying to beat the Soviets.
So it's less than inspiring when you really know. Maybe it's clever when you know what it was really meant to do.
It was meant to overthrow communism. It was meant to buy elections, work with revolutionaries, and also go into countries and say, look how great Uncle Sam is, right? But we jumped that last track long ago.
Your tax dollars, we shelled out $1.5 million to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace of Serbia. I don't think most Americans could find Serbia on a map.
Why do we care about what Serbians are talking about around the water cooler? Okay. $70,000 for a DEI themed musical in our honey.
I don't really think that uncle Sam needs to swoop in with a song and dance number. I really don't.
Ireland, you're on your own with that thing. $47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia.
Now, as much as I love the arts. No! What the hell is that? $32,000 for a transgender comic in Peru.
Are we running a charity or is this some sort of global art festival? I'm not really sure. So USAID finally is caught red-handed funding the meals that ended up feeding Al-Qaeda fighters in Syria.
Now, when I got up this morning, I was thinking to myself, you know what, we should be more charitable towards al-Qaeda. No, that wasn't me.
Maybe, I don't think it was you. If it was, maybe you should, honey, ask yourself, when the hell did I become for that? And then there's the millions and millions of dollars funneled into eco health alliance do you remember that name eco health alliance the makers of the wuhan lab and covid19 why did we spend all of that money okay also can we talk about the elephant in the room and when i say

elephant room i mean the one that's wearing a trench coat uh trench coat uh hat and dark glasses you know the cia elephant that is in the room because that's what this is this is a cia cia front that's what USAID is that's not tinfoil hat stuff. That's cold, hard fact.
Back in the Cold War, they were training foreign police in counterinsurgency tactics, torture techniques in Latin America. You know, all those fun things that we've all grown to love so much and have really caused the rest of the world to love us so much.

That's not a conspiracy.

That's history, documented and undeniable.

Now, what happens when the Cold War ends?

Well, we have to find new enemies because all that funding is there.

So what do we do now?

Okay, well, the Cuban Twitter fiasco to stir up dissent in Cuba, bankrolled by USAID. Then there's Ukraine.
I don't even know where to start with Ukraine. Hey, do you remember Hunter Biden, who had that cushy, cushy gig on the board of Burisma? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, while Hunter was cashing those checks, his dad was VP. USAID was pouring money into Ukraine for development and governance programs.
Guess who one of the recipients of that was? Everybody's favorite, George Soros. Now, I don't know.
I don't think that's a good idea. Is this aid or is this revolution? Is this aid or is this just greasing palms? There's going to be people who stand, Democrats and people on the left, and I shouldn't say, really good people who really care about aid, who really care about people.
And they're going to stand because they hate Donald Trump so much. They're going to say, just Donald Trump.
He just hates helping people. Okay.
First of all, this isn't about Trump. It's not about Trump.
It's about us. It's about you and me and every single taxpayer who is sick of seeing our money flush down the drain on pet projects and covert ops.
I don't want covert ops that are no longer even overseen by Congress. This isn't about being stingy.
This is not about turning our backs on the world. This is about accountability.
It's about making sure that when we do want to help, we're actually helping, not hurting. Think about it like this.
You're running a small business and you find out that 83%, 83% of your expenses are going to stuff that doesn't move the needle at all for your business.

Fancy coffee machines, random side hustles, you name it.

83% of what you're spending and you're a small business, do you cut that?

Or do you go, well, that might be doing good.

I mean, coffee is very important.

No, you would cut it.

Why?

Because everyone suffers if you go out of business and you don't cut it you refocus on what works what keeps the lights on and that's what USAID that's what the overhaul is aiming for that's why they didn't cut 100% I would have cut 100% that's why they didn't cut 100%. I guess some of it does good things.
I personally believe in private charity. I don't want the government in charity business.
That's our job. But this isn't about killing aid.
This is just about making it effective, aligning it with our national interest and, dare I say, our values, if we have any.

That's all the while trying to stop the bleeding out of of the out of control spending.

We're bleeding out on the table.

We all know this spending is going to kill us.

I don't know why we continue to not do anything about it, why we don't demand. Wait a minute.

No, Republicans, Democrats,

stop the insanity. We're bleeding out on the table.
The longer we make this about Trump or the left or the right or Biden, the faster the patient called America dies on the table. Can we focus on what really matters?

So let's prioritize.

What matters?

Well, number one. On the table, can we focus on what really matters?

So let's prioritize.

What matters? Well, number one, national security. Okay? We can't help anyone if we are not secure.
In a world where China is building islands in the South China Sea and Russia is flexing its muscles, We cannot afford to waste any of our resources on DEI musicals or transgender comic books. Can we please, for the love of Pete, be a little strategic? I want to build alliances, but I do not want to bankroll our enemies, foreign or domestic.
But this just isn't about security. It's also about building an alliance.
It's about morality. When our aid ends up in the hands of terrorists, we're not just wasting money, we're betraying the people that we're supposed to be helping and betraying the people who gave that money.
Does no one see? You know, I get some of the money that you spend on the commercials. You know, that's why commercials, they pay me because you're going to go out and buy stuff, hopefully, because I've made a good case that it's something that will benefit your life.

When you subscribe to The Blaze, I get a few pennies on everything that you subscribe.

And I look at that as sacred money.

I say this in staff meetings over and over again.

What do our listeners need?

How can we make their lives better?

I look at your money.

I know how hard it is for you to buy a subscription.

I know what it is.

I know what time we're living in.

I know you have a billion other choices.

How can I serve you better is what I ask all the time.

Sarah, am I right?

All the time I ask that.

How can we help them?

Do you really think that this is helping the taxpayer? The DEI musical in Ireland? Do you think that's helping you or your friends? That's not who we are. We're better than this.
Now, let me just talk to your friends or let me just give you the case so you can talk to your friends who just hate Donald Trump. And everything is about Donald Trump.
It's not about logic anymore. It's just about Donald Trump.
I have a challenge for them. Look past the messenger and hear the message.
This isn't a partisan power grab. It's a chance to clean house, to zero set our budgets and look at it and say, what's important? Have you ever, do you have subscriptions that you have no idea that you were paying for? Have you ever done that? You look at the subscriptions like, what the hell is this $6.99 for that and $8.99 for that and $3.99 for that?

All of a sudden, those add up.

You have to zero set and go, okay, let's just do the right thing.

Forget about all these things that we have been doing.

Let's look and see what is the right thing to do.

When you take USAID and you look at it and you look at it as USAID, you think, Oh, that's a force for good, but it's not. It's a slush fund for bureaucrats and spies.
That's what it was designed to be. I don't, we don't live in 1961 anymore.
I think we should maybe reevaluate the whole thing. And you don't have to love the guy in the Oval Office to see this makes sense.
Waste is waste. Inefficiency is inefficiency.
Accountability should not have a party label on it. When your friends start talking to you about this, Donald Trump, stop it right now.
Stop it. Should accountability have a party label is inefficiency ever okay is waste of your you know they say time is money you're working until april 19th just to pay your taxes from january 1st to april 19th days after you have to pay your taxes, you're still working to pay those taxes.

Are you okay with any kind of waste of that money?

Because I'm not.

This is not slashing foreign aid.

It's not going to turn America into some sort of hermit kingdom.

Nowhere is anyone saying we should stop helping people.

We're saying we should stop screwing it up.

Thank you. hermit kingdom.
Nowhere is anyone saying we should stop helping people. We're saying we should stop screwing it up.
How do you argue with that? We're not saying shut the door. We're not saying isolate ourselves.
We're saying, can we reevaluate for a second here? Because we're in deep trouble with our spending. We're talking about taking our treasury and locking the doors when there are thieves at the door and opening the treasury when there's good to be done.
How is that suddenly so unreasonable? You know, there are a lot of things I talk about on this program so you can get ahead of things. I've been talking a lot about AI recently, the way for literally decades,

this has been coming and I've been trying to prepare you for coming, what's coming,

and it's here now. Okay.
Another one that I've been talking to you for about decades,

and that is precious metals, gold or silver. It's coming.
It is coming. Its time is coming.
And it's almost here. Have you seen the price of gold and silver and what it's doing? Lear Capital's been steady for over 25 years, guiding people just like you to shield their wealth with gold and silver.
Real assets that will not depreciate, not just numbers on a screen. I have studied the markets for a long time, and when the dollar wobbles, when trade wars heat up, well, smart money moves to metals.
My grandfather used to say, you know what, if I just would have known what the really rich people would have known before the Great Depression, we would have been fine.

What are all the central banks doing?

They're moving their money.

They're moving so much money into gold that in London they're running out of physical gold to send.

What the hell are you doing?

Do I have the gun guy on in just a few minutes? Okay, we'll talk about that here in a second. Did you see what former U.S.
ambassador to Russia under Obama tweeted out yesterday? This is really telling. Okay.
It's Michael McFaul, and he's talking about USAID. He says, huge mistake.
We needed reform of USAID, not dismantlement. China is not ending foreign assistance programs.
In an age of great power competition, the Trump administration is unilaterally destroying one of our best instruments of soft power influence. Okay, okay.
Wait, wait, wait. I thought this was all about aid.
Yeah, aid, like charity, right? What do you mean soft power influence? That's what they're arguing. The left is arguing this is all about aid, and yet...
No, it's not. It's not.
And even the former... He's saying it.
He admits it. He says the quiet part out loud.
You're not supposed to do that, Michael. You're supposed to just call it a charity, and children are dying now because of this.

So he's absolutely right if that's the way you want to view.

That's what USAID was supposed to do, soft power.

Okay, so they're not closing it down.

That's exactly what the Trump administration is doing.

They're saying 85%.

We don't need any DEI musicals in Ireland.

If we're going to do this, let's be strategic about it.

Isn't that reform?

Isn't that the reform he claims he's for?

Yes.

Okay.

All right.

I'm just having a hard time finding it.

Seems to be.

Yeah.

But, you know, to virtually admit that this is a CIA operation is staggering. Because if it's not, you don't use soft power influence to describe USAID, right? You use charity, giving.
And you know what? You know what? He's right about the redesigning of all of this. Charity means nothing when it doesn't come with respect.
That's exactly what Donald Trump is trying to do on the Mexican border. The Canadian is exactly what he's trying to do in Greenland.
He's saying, we will give you things, you give us things. That's what China is doing with their Belt and Road initiative.
They're not giving fake charity. They're buying and selling in unethical ways.
This is Glenn Beck. I want you to think about your house for just a second and all the houses around it.
Now imagine that everyone living in each one of those houses hates you and your family and wants you to die. In fact, they pass you in the streets every day.
They look over the fence as you're barbecuing. They're like, I'm going to kill you and your family.
And they'll do it if they have a chance. And they've already killed a couple of your family members already.
Okay, that's pretty much what it's like to be a Jew in Israel. Every day they're looking over the fence going, I'm going to kill you and all your family and all of the death and destruction that's come out of that.
And the hatred just keeps coming. Thank God for people who really understand this, understand what's going on in that little neighborhood.
Thank God for the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Last year, your generosity of people and people just like you provided two million meals to impoverished families.
That's what I call charity. Emergency aid to regions all across Israel that have been torn apart by the war with Hamas and Hezbollah.

Glenn for $20 off your subscription at blazetv.com slash Glenn. Welcome to the program.
John Dodson is with us. He's been with us before.
He is the whistleblower on Fast and Furious. He's blown a lot of whistles.
This one now, he's a former ATF agent, and he is far enough away from things to where he can legally say everything that he knows. I think everything he knows.
But right now, the Mexican government is suing our gun makers. I believe this started, and the seeds were planted by the Obama administration on this one, but I could be wrong.
But they're suing U.S. gun makers and they're blaming us now.
The tariffs are going up. Why? Why? Because unfair trade.
Let's just have regular trade with each other. What you charge us, we'll charge you.
But in the case of Mexico, it is also mainly about the border at this point.

You have got to declare those drug cartels enemies of the state and terrorist organizations, and you've got to stop them.

If not, we will.

But you've got to stop what's happening on our border.

What have they done?

They're blaming us for the drug cartel violence. I'm sorry, they're blaming our gun manufacturers for this.
John is here to tell us the whole story. The author of The Unarmed Truth.
Hello, John. How are you? Hey, I'm fine, sir.
Thank you so much for having me on. Oh, yeah.
I appreciate it. So tell me what's really going on.
Well, what's really going on is a it's actually complicated, but the gist of it is the Mexican government is far and away responsible for arming the cartels. The data that I've seen and the way that E-Trace system works.
So ATF has E-Trace, which is where firearms tracing is conducted. And if I can give you a brief background, if you don't mind.
So the only way we can successfully trace, and when I say we, I mean ATF, and I'm retired now, but the only way you can successfully trace a firearm is if it has a U.S. nexus.
It was either manufactured here or imported in the U.S. at some point.
Either way, it's stamped manufactured in the U.S. or imported in the U.S.
by the company that did so. So to say that all the prime guns successfully traced in Mexico are U.S.
source firearms, it's kind of a rigged ballgame because the only ones we can successfully trace are U.S. source firearms anyway.
If a firearm was made in the former Soviet bloc or China. We wouldn't have access to that.
We're not tracking that. Exactly.
We can't trace that. So it doesn't come back.
So the numbers are skewed from the very beginning. Now, put on top of that, of the U.S.
source firearms, and this is where it comes into what's the motive behind it. Is it ignorance or is it deception? So say that the vast majority of crime guns were covered in Mexico are traced back to U.S.
sources. Okay, again, we can only successfully trace those that are U.S.
sourced anyway. But you are not discounting those ones that were purchased directly by the Mexican government.
Now, I worked on the border for the past 12 years of my career, especially in firearms trafficking. Fast and Furious, I was in a firearms trafficking unit.
That was all that we were supposed to do. And if you look at the data from E-Trace, it's clear.
It's so clear. And by the numbers, the reports that I ran before I retired, every year, any 12-month period since 2010 until the day that I retired in 2023, whatever 12-month period you want to run, the Mexican government accounts for about 70 to 75 percent of the crime guns recovered in Mexico.
And these are direct purchases by the Mexican government or government-to-government sales from the U.S. government to Mexico.
The problem is those weapons are considered U.S. source.
And ATF doesn't delineate, doesn't take those out of the numbers when they speak to Congress or when they release the information. They count them all as U.S.
source firearms. And so the American civilian firearms market is left holding the bag and blamed for the cartel violence in Mexico.

Okay, so wait, wait, wait, wait. So Mexico is buying this from us, and I assume that those guns are supposed to go to the Mexican government to fight cartels, etc.
Are these guns going into the hands of the cartels yes Yes, 100%. And the icing on the cake is most of the money that they use to purchase these firearms is provided by the U.S.
government. The Mexican government says, well, we need help fighting the cartels, so we give them money to purchase equipment and weapons.
They buy these weapons directly from manufacturers, and I'll just say Colt, just as an example, all right, just because everyone recognizes the name Colt. They'll buy two Konex boxes of M4 variants, you know, AR variants from Colt.
You know, these are military-grade weapons. Two Konex boxes come, one goes to the Mexican military, one's diverted into the black market.
Those ones in the black market are recovered in crime scenes, subsequently traced, and then that's counted as a U.S.-sourced firearm. When they release the data about all the crime guns in Mexico, they count that as a U.S.-sourced firearm.
So do we have the serial numbers to prove that they were purchased by the Mexican federal government? 100% like it's all in E-Tr. If you look at the E-Trace data, the data, like, well, one of two ways it will come back.
And there are several different ways that this happens. So the Mexican government, ATF has issued different entities of the Mexican government FFL numbers, and they all begin with a Z.
It has a Z as the first character. So they can purchase directly from manufacturers, right? And so when one of those firearms is traced, the trace comes back and says this firearm was traced to a foreign government or law enforcement agency.
Then the other way of doing it is they buy direct government to government sales. So the firearm trace comes back and says, quote, the firearm is a U.S.
military weapon, unquote. So those are weapons purchased by the U.S.
government and then sold to the Mexican government in order to support their efforts to fight the cartels. But in fact, the vast majority of the crime guns that are being recovered in Mexico are stemming from these direct purchases by the Mexican government.
And I'm not joking. It's at least 70% every year that I ran it.
And I ran it religiously to the day I turned my computer and retired, I ran it. And it was 72% on that day.
And it's always been 70% to 75%. So we're talking to John Dodson.
He is a former ATF agent.

He was a whistleblower on Fast and Furious.

He's the author of Unarmed Truth.

And I think you were on the air and we talked about this.

And we talked about how the ATF was targeting and harassing whistleblowers

who were testifying in front of Congress.

And I think you made a slight reference to this, but you couldn't talk about it or wouldn't talk about it. What's changed? Well, if you'll remember, there was a different administration at the time.
Okay. I was definitely worried about being prosecuted for providing this information.
All right. So who they're doing this is this because the mexican government is the drug cartel the mexican government is afraid of the drug cartel who's really in charge of pushing the government to sue our gun manufacturers here well you know and those are that that's those questions are what I refer to as echelons above Dotson.

But I can tell you, okay, so best case scenario is the Mexican government doesn't know.

Like the current president of Mexico and the former president and the one before that doesn't know.

They only know the data that ATF has released that all these firearms are U.S. source firearms, and therefore they blame the U.S.
civilian firearms market. That's best case scenario.
Then you have to make the argument or you have to at least ask the questions about, well, why don't they know the freaking truth? Like if they're buying all these guns and they're not getting them all, they're being subverted into the black market. Why aren't they aware of that?

Well, you'd ask that of the Ukrainians too, but I digress.

Oh, Jack, that's a whole other issue.

I can only imagine where that trace information comes back to. Oh, my God.

So the Mexicans are either they're willfully ignorant, all right,

or it's entirely corrupt, either way.

But what frustrates me the most is,

especially now during these current negotiations with the Mexican government over these tariffs and things like that. Every time you hold them to account for something, the first response is, well, you've got to stop the, quote, flow of firearms, unquote, south.
You have to stop it. And it's so hard when we're negotiating, when our officials are negotiating with facts that aren't true that aren't accurate or at least are disguised in a way to where they're they don't have the true story it's it's not fair to the american government it's not fair to the american people and it's not fair to the mexican people at all so then so then why don't we do this because you can buy guns elsewhere mexico why don't we do this why why doesn't buy guns elsewhere, Mexico.
Why don't we do this?

Why doesn't, if Trump knows this, and I don't know if he does, but if Trump knows this, why doesn't he say, you know what, you're right.

We're going to stop all guns from crossing the border.

You can no longer buy American arms.

I know that would hurt the arms companies here in America for maybe a year.

But then things change and the truth is out. And Mexico doesn't want that.
Why wouldn't he just say, okay, we'll stop all the guns coming across the border, buy your guns elsewhere for the next 12 months, and let's see what happens. Well, I'm going to be honest because I don't think they know.
And that's part of the reason that I'm talking to you is because there's no way to tell them. They'll call ATF and ATF will say, oh, yeah, 80 percent of the firearms trades in Mexico are U.S.
source firearms. But they don't take into account the direct purchases by the Mexican government or the government and government sales.
Whoever's handling negotiations with Mexico, if they would sit down at the table and say, hey, we need you to work on fentanyl and border crossings and border security and things like this, and Mexico will do what they always do, which is say, well, you got to stop the flow of firearms. Say, okay, give me one second.
I've just rescinded, you know, all of the export licenses for your government to buy purchases, purchase firearms directly. I've revoked the foreign FFLs that ATF have visited you, and I've

ceased and desist all government-to-government sales from the Department of Defense and the State Department there. Instantaneously, I have cut over 70% of the crime guns being supplied to Mexico.
So now, Madam President, it's your turn. What are you going to do? Put up or shut up? That's brilliant.
Have you talked to anybody in the administration about this? No, sir. I don't.
Like, how does anyone talk to the administration? All right. Do me a favor.
Give me a white paper on this and you tell me who it needs to go to and I'll get it to them. OK.
OK. I have been pounding this drum, sir, for years.
I've brought this to the attention of my ATF supervisors as far up the chain as I could go. I even physically handed the printouts, the documents, the data to the highest ranking DOJ official assigned to Mexico City at the time.
And nothing ever happened to it. And again, this is a previous administration.
Well, you don't expect anything from that, but I expect something from this. So give me the names of who it should go to uh and give me the best sharpest white paper on it don't overwhelm with facts get it give me give me the you know executive summary on the front so it can be understood and explained uh and then give me all the facts uh after that i'll have it delivered to the to the right people and then i'll i'll give them time to read it and digest or their people to digest it, and then I'll ask for an answer.
What happened here? Why aren't you doing it? No problem. I will work on that immediately this afternoon.
But in the meantime, sir, and I want to tell you, I know there are a lot of ATF agents that listen to your show, and probably people in the administration. Don't have to take my word for it.
You can call any ATF agent. Like someone in the administration, call a field office.
Don't call headquarters, call a field office. Call any ATF agent that has an eTrace account and say, hey, I want you to run a report for me.
Log on to eTrace on the right-hand side. It's generated statistical report.
Click on that. It's going to automatically populate to your org code, change that default to recovery location, put in Mexico and do any 12 month time period that you want.
And you will see the data is clear on this issue. All right.
The Mexican military is the number one source of supplier of crime guns to the Mexican cartels, hands down. And I mean, exponentially.
So when you see the data, it will like it, it's, it's flower.abbergasted. John, get me the data and get me that white paper on it and an executive summary, and I'll get it to them.
As soon as you give it to me, I will send it, turn it right around, and get it to all the leadership. All right, sir.
I appreciate it. Thanks, John.
I appreciate it. God bless.
John Dodson, the unarmed trutharmed truth by the way if you're an atf agent and you can do that and you can verify what he's saying call us i'd love to hear from you because mexico is putting in uh they're they're suing us they're suing all of our our gun makers here in america for 10 billion dollars uh no i don't think so but it's going to the supreme court I think the Supreme Court is going to say you can't, you don't have a leg to stand on. But again, it's the same kind of corrupt mentality of the last administration, you know, of not actually addressing the issue, but going after little pet peeves and going after our guns and our rights to guns.
All right. Back in just a second.

And usually I unplug from the news on Friday, which is, you know, exactly what they expect everybody to do. And there was a story that

came out that I would have missed if I had not been on that plane. I've been waiting to talk

to you about it. I just didn't have time yesterday.
It's about the Department of Homeland Security.

And Trump just went in and said, hey, you know that that union deal you just did with a TSA

under Biden? It's off. We're not doing it.
Why? This is going to make your eyes shoot out of

Thank you. with a TSA under Biden, it's off.
We're not doing it. Why? This one's going to make your eyes shoot out of your head and blood.
You're going to need a pint of blood after this one. I'll give it to you here in just 60 seconds.
Hang on. First, there's a certain point of frustration past in which you kind of just throw up your hands and give up just a little bit, you know? Let's say you've got high interest credit cards and because of the price of food and everything else that's been going through the roof for the past several years, you had to use them a lot.
Now you're buried up to your elbows in debt and what you're paying each month isn't even servicing the debt. It's just paying on that insanely high interest rate.
Take a breath. There is hope.
It's American financing. I'm the kind of guy that avoids things like this.
I am. I just really bad at it i'm like i don't want to look at it you have to but here's the good news american financing is on your side they don't work for the banks and you'll be shocked at what options you didn't even know you had from mortgage refinancing to other forms of debt consolidation even accessing the high equity you have in your home to pay off high interest debts sar Sarah, didn't you just do this? Did you refi your home loan? Yes, I did.
I refinanced. And how much are you saving? About $12,000 a year.
That's nice. Congratulations.
That's your raise. Anyway, it is like giving yourself a raise though, isn't it?ancing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

Friday, the Department of Homeland Security dropped a bomb saying they're axing the TSA's union deal, okay? Why? Well, because they made this deal under Biden and 86 percent of our airports.

More TSA people are clocking in as union reps than are actually checking your bag.

OK. Nearly 200 out of them get paid your tax dollars to sit in meetings, not to stop bombs.

OK, but to, I think, give a middle finger to every one of us who's ever missed a flight or slow security line.

Last May, Biden's crew gave forty two thousand TSA screeners a huge fat union contract, more rights and bigger checks. Did you get did you get that in? Oh, no, you didn't get that, did you? OK, now DSA DHS is a dumpster fire.
They have screeners booking six days, sick days, seven months out. I'm going to be sick in September.
excuse me how do you know you're going to be oh it's weird you're you're sick the same time coachella is happening isn't that weird so what's happening is they are just abusing the system and the good ones are all they're picking up the I mean, this is the way it happens in government.

This is why we've got to cut the size of government.

And honestly, cut the unions out of government. Over 60% of TSA workers now say the lazy ones are just coasting.

And that's killing morale.

60% of TSA workers.

Unions are pissed because Trump said no we're not doing that they're saying there's workers rights okay first of all you work for the government so you don't really have workers rights like everybody else outside of the government and you don't have to quote me you can quote fdr in and he was kind of a big union guy. He loved unions.
Remember him? Kind of a progressive icon. He said it cannot happen in the federal government.
1937, he writes that public unions are a no-go because they don't bargain with the boss, they bargain with the customer. He said, when they slack or strike, we're the ones that end up paying the price.
No flights, no services, just chaos. Picture this, 200 TSA union reps are chilling and they're just like, you know what, what can we do to make this job easier and the union stronger in TSA? They're talking about that while you're barefoot holding your toothpaste in a baggie, missing your flight.
That's your money. Your money.
FDR said this is a power grab, and it is. Government jobs are exploding.
We have 7 million people that work for the government. That's federal, state, or local.
Unionized. 7 million people.
That's one in every 20 Americans. Over a third are unionized.
Now, what is the rate of unionization in the private sector, in the real world? 6%. In the federal world, it's 30%.
Why? Why? Private unions fight broke companies. Government unions fight you.
And the politicians don't care because it's not their cash it's your cash we spend six trillion dollars of our federal budget half of that is on salary and pensions i don't know sounds like a problem uh you know hello you're 30 you're hustling two gigs. Maybe you're driving for Uber.
You got a full-time job, but you also have to do the Uber thing. Half of your paycheck is feeding a machine that doesn't even work.
How's that fair to you? I'm trying to, is this the way we're supposed to be? Let me go back to their first principles, the Constitution. It says government serves of the people, by the people, for the people.
It serves us. Okay? Article 2 runs the show.
Article 1, Congress pays the bills. Where's the part about us funding union reps over our security.

It's not in any of the articles.

It's not even in an article in the New York Times.

Okay.

It doesn't exist.

When the TSA cares more about job security than America's security or your security,

something's wildly broken.

You stood in those lines. You've had your shoes off, off laptop out praying your water bottle doesn't get cavity searched you know uh you'll go i see you're holding a water bottle come on over here we got to make sure you don't have another one in your butt excuse me that's not freedom man that's insanity and it's because we panicked after 9-11 That's what happened 50 000 screeners eight billion dollars a year 432 airports safety first right no it's not safety first come on we've all stood in those lines how many times do you stand in line and go you know what this is a very efficient and a great system i feel so much safer now i've never felt that way government tests they do tests every year at the airports they miss fake bombs and fake guns 70 of the time wait and they just got they just got a raise wait what 95 of the time back in 2015 2015 so they're getting better it was 90 they only caught five percent of the bombs and the guns uh now they're now they're now they're you know only missing 30 30 percent sorry finding 30 percent of them you are more likely to be groped than protected in those lines.
And you and I both know it. Now, there's two airports that are doing things differently.
Believe it or not, I can't believe this. I don't know how this happened.
But San Francisco and Kansas City, those airports are the only two that are privatized, fully private firms. Guess who nails the tests every year? Okay.
Guess which lines move like a tick tock dance, smooth, fast, effective, happening quickly. It's those two airports.
You know, the ones that are finding the guns and the bombs why because private companies

cannot afford to suck like this tsa that's a government fail okay what happens oh whoops we let a bomb get on an airport on an airplane whoops who's held accountable for that do they go out of business? No, they don't. They don't ever.
If a private airport can outdo what the federal government is doing everywhere else, why are we stuck with this clown show? I'll tell you why. unions, government.
If if they miss a bomb at one of those two airports and it goes off on a plane, do you think the people, the plane, the airplanes, the the airlines, do you think they get sued out of their mind and they go out of business because they hired a firm that was missing a bomb? yeah, they do. So they're incentivized to make sure no bombs get on that plane.
The government, are you going to sue the government? You can't sue the government. You might be 40.
You're juggling kids, your mortgage. Why is your tax money funding a TSA that fails when the San Francisco airport thrives.
Why are we not ditching this whole thing? I say abolish the TSA. Let the airports hire private security.
It works. No airline in the country would allow 70% of the bombs and the fake guns getting through.
They couldn't afford it. But the government's like, ah, and they cashed the check.
This is why our founders, they wanted a lean machine. Madison said in Federalist 51, power hoarding kills republics.
Government unions, they're modern hoarders. They lock in the job.
They shield the slackers. They grow the beast.
Rome collapsed when the bureaucrats got too comfy. It just collapsed.
How comfy do you think our bureaucrats are? Look at them. Look at them.
Britain's empire wobbled until it slashed its payroll. We have 7 million government workers, more than the populations of 38 states.
Wow, that's a... Wait, say that again? Our government workers total more than the population of 38 different states.
That's not public service. That's a heist.
So here's the thing. Trump went in and he said, we're cutting your union contract.
No, no, you're not spending, you're not having these employees spend their whole day trying to figure out how they can make the union stronger. We want every employee looking at how we can make our safety better.
So first thing, it has to be done. And, you know, I could dream.
I can dream. Hey, I'm a dreamer.
No government unions, no collective bargaining for public workers, none, zip, zero. FDR nailed it.
They cannot hold the people hostage. What they're doing is they're negotiating with the politicians, but the politicians aren't the ones spending the money.
It doesn't cost them anything. And they get kickbacks from those unions.
So you're paying for it. They cannot negotiate like that because the one that's actually the one that's paying the salaries isn't represented there.
That's why FDR was against it. And he was right.
You can't unionize against your boss and your customers. merit over membership period to cut the fat 7 million more than 38 states i think we can lose a few trump's buyouts full pay for eight months to quit 75 000 got out uh that's a good start maybe for a monday freeze the hires take the the federal government and slash it to 3.5.
There's going to be chaos. Yes, there is.
Have you ever worked for a company that is dying? A company that is out of business if they don't do things drastically different? We are that company. This country is dying to save it and to save the employees that we can, because we'll all be out of jobs, you've got to slash and you're going to have some chaos.
But then it writes itself. private companies run lean three percent of of the employees are administration that's that's the

average of private companies.

3%.

Do you know what ours is for the government?

15% of all of them being bosses.

15%.

I don't know.

You're killing it at work.

Why is your tax bill propping up paper pushers? Why? Privatize all of the airport security. Kansas City and San Francisco, they do it better, faster, safer, cheaper.
Repeal the 2001 Aviation Security Act. Congress can do it.
Let the airports and the airlines compete. You'd rather breeze through than beg some fed to hurry up right you'd rather have it done right competently and somebody that you can hold responsible you know coolidge was one of the greatest presidents of the 20th century uh he crushed a police strike in 1919 he said no there's no striking against.
Can't do it. Reagan fired 11,000 controllers.
Airplanes are going to fall out of the sky. You know what didn't happen? That.
This isn't anti-worker. This is pro-you.
Help your friends keep that in perspective. We don't mind the workers.
We're going after efficiency, competence, security. This is not against the worker.

Station ID. Did you have any idea that that was going on none yeah no none i mean i knew that the tsa was failing tests but did you know that many times that they gave i mean biden did so many things at the very end to give all these all these people that are quite honestly democratic donors that's what the unions are um give them all these gifts when you have people in the airport that are representing the union instead of represent why am i paying for that right the union should be paying for that yeah and you're right that you know i've never gone into the airport, stood in one of those lines, and felt safer because of it.
Never. Never.
You know what? It's the opposite. I went to, and Dallas is really good.
I think Dallas is good. I went into Dallas, and they were overwhelmed.
I don't remember what it was. It was a holiday or something, And they were overwhelmed.
And so they said, you don't have to take anything out of your bags for the x-ray. You don't have to take off your shoe or your belt.
Just go. And I'm like, wait a minute.
Wait, wait a minute. If you can do that because we're backed up, why the hell are we doing that all the time? Right.
All of a sudden, it's okay not to fly safely? No. No.
Come on. God, it pissed me off.
I know. It's so.
It's irritating. You know, I don't understand.
Do you understand, Pat, how so many people are just so blind to this? They just think. No.
They just want to destroy America. Sheep.
america the sheep yeah absolute sheep yeah because if we did it the way the israelis do it oh my god you would appreciate that kind of security right i did where not only do you feel safer but you know that they're actually profiling people because it makes sense you get on the plane and they hand you an actual steak knife. Yeah.
Yeah, because they know you're not going to kill anybody with it. Right, because they've done their work.
Yeah. I mean, if you've never flown on LL Airlines, you should.
Just one time in your life. It is the most secure airline.
I mean, think about the attacks that are after LL Airlines. You take one of those things, hostages, and you're doomed.
They're doomed. They've never had a problem.
Why? Because they don't let political correctness or unions or anything else. They check everybody and follow through on it.
It's amazing. This is Glenn Beck.

He's got the sniffles or something. He's in his big fuzzy slippers today eating bonbons on the couch.
But thanks, Pat, for joining in and filling in for him. There's a story that I don't know if you saw, but let me just give you the headline first.
It's from the Salt Lake Tribune, which I think is an abomination an abomination or an abomination one of the two yeah what did i say you said you said abomination i said it's a great source oh okay one of the two it's a great source of abominations so um here's the headline yeah meet the utah software engineer and distillery co-owner giving notes to Elon Musk and Doge. This is a story about the woman who is exposing all of the stuff that Doge is finding.
Okay. We just recently found out who she was.
She has been keeping her identity quiet. She didn't want to be doxed or anything else because she knows what that means.
So she's gone under the name Data Republican. If you're not following Data Republican, you should be because she's out leading the way outside of Doge, showing the connections of where all this money is.
What who's doing what? She's fantastic. Okay.
And I did an interview. You should have her on.
It's fabulous. I did an interview with her.
She is mute and deaf. Yeah, I've read about her.
Yeah. And I did an interview with her, and it's fascinating to see.
I mean, it's crazy to do an interview with somebody that can't speak and can't hear. Yeah.
But it was fabulous interview. So she's really, really good at what she does.
Now, her husband owns and runs a, you know, a distillery, you know, a place where you can get micro brews and everything else. So now why did the salt Lake tribune feel it necessary, not only to dox her and introduce her to everybody, but also then say, Oh, and her husband owns this.
Wow. Okay.
So they could lead a boycott. So they could lead a boycott.
So I wrote a letter yesterday. My office did to the the Tribune and to the reporter.
Nationally syndicated radio host and Blaze Media founder Glenn Beck is concerned about the alleged backlash of the spirits of the Wasatch distillery as they are receiving as a result of your reporting. Why did you feel it necessary to include their family business in your reporting? How did you that was relevant to data republicans profile do you regret any of the backlash to the business in you know review bombs and calls for boycotts in the articles comment sections glenn will be commenting about this on his national radio program wanted to give you a fair shake if you have any comment deadline 7 a.m central

tomorrow march 11th uh no no we didn't get any comment from that reporter he was too busy uh

just too busy i don't know if he's out you know spray painting teslas i i you know i don't know

um but mike lee lost his mind over this here is a private individual not wanting to be doxed

Thank you. Mike Lee lost his mind over this.
Here is a private individual not wanting to be doxed, just showing how you can find these things using AI to show the waste in government. And here is the Salt Lake Tribune, which is only a little bit worse than the Deseret News.

Am I wrong on that one?

No, you're not.

Okay.

They're just hack organizations at this point.

And why did they do this? Now there's a boycott against this distillery.

And somebody said to me, Glenn, you should lead a boycott. And I'm like, well, A, I don't drink as part of my faith.
And B, I'm an alcoholic. Not a good thing for me going, you know, I need to go to that distillery right now.
It's our patriotic duty. But if I live there, I would go and put my money down and say, hey, whatever beer you're making there, what's your most expensive beer?

Give me a glass.

I'd put the money down on the table before they pour it and say, I don't need the beer.

I just wanted to support you guys.

I mean, this is outrageous what is happening.

And quite honestly, guys, this is terrorism terrorism i said this earlier about the tesla stuff when you are firebombing teslas what are you what are you doing you're not sending a message to the driver of that tesla that's not what you're doing you're not saying you know why you, you shouldn't. You're sending a message to that driver and everyone else.

You buy a Tesla.

You support Doge and what he's doing politically.

And we will come after you.

We'll burn your car to the ground.

Good luck with that.

Who knows what could happen next?

That's terrorism.

Is that not the literal definition of terrorism? It is. So what is this? What is this? You're doxing.
You have a newspaper coming out and saying, oh, by the way, oh, and her kids, her kids go to this school. You're one step away from that.
What does her husband's distillery have to do with her as data republican what does it have to do with anything nothing you want to create terror in her life you are a terrorist and you should be treated as a terrorist you don't do that you don't try to make people afraid so they will stop saying what you believe is politically wrong. You don't do that.
You allow free speech and you argue in the open market. You do not say, how about this? How about this? Salt Lake Tribune.

I'm going to take the reporter and I'm going to dox the reporter and I'm going to I'm going to find out if he belongs to any country club.

And I'm going to tell you the name of that country club.

I'm going to find out where he buys his clothes, where he does any business.

And I'm going to expose it.

And I'm just saying, I'm just going to tell you where he shops.

I'm just going to tell you where he lives.

I'm just going to tell you all these things about him that have nothing to do with his job now would they be would they be okay with that with the salt lake tribune say glenn beck good job no they wouldn't they would be right for calling me a terrorist well what is the difference between me doing it to your reporter and you doing it to this private individual who is risking everything themselves and would not like to risk their family? But they're risking everything themselves because they believe that the government is corrupt. By the way, for all of you who don't think that, read the founders.
Read George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, all of them. They warned this would happen.
They told you government is fire and you better control it or it will control you. And so all of you revolutionaries that are revolutionary for the republic are so freaking stupid.
You couldn't you don't know your ass from your elbow. Read what the founders said.
All this person is doing is trying to say there is corruption here. We should seek out that corruption.
And if it is proven to be corruption, it should be shut down. Why? Because it's A, America, a country that is going broke, a country that is losing its soul.
And if you want to save what I believe is the greatest nation ever to be on earth, as well as one of the darkest nations ever to be on earth when we go wrong, we should make sure we don't go wrong, hold up the Constitution and the rule of law, and not become terrorists ourselves. So, I was going to say, I'm not going to do any of those things about that report i'm not i would i wouldn't say anything about this reporter or will i or will i i don't know i don't know i haven't decided yet sleep well reporter oh did he just make a threat no i said, I'm not sure if I should give the information about any business you might be involved in.
I'm just thinking, should I do exactly the same thing you just did to her and her family? I don't know. I have a problem with it.
But you know what? You might be right. It might be the noble thing to do.
Back in a minute. So you're walking through the neighborhood at night.
Something's not right. Might be just that there's somebody from the Salt Lake Tribune in the neighborhood.
You know, you just know something's not right.

You should expose their family.

You can feel it.

It's a shiver down your spine, the darkness, whatever it is.

You can either be relaxed and calm and just dismiss it and say there's nothing there.

Or you can just prepare yourself and go, oh, I got my burner launcher right at my side, ready to go in case.

But there's probably nothing there.

But the point is, you're not afraid.

Like maybe some reporters should be.

Oh, my gosh.

But only if I did the ethical thing according to your rules.

You have an instant peace of mind.

One pull of that trigger and it's over.

No blood, no permanent harm. Just a firm message that you're not easy prey.
The burner launcher, it's a tool for those who know that safety and courage go hand in hand, that you don't need to be a soldier to protect yourself. You just need to be a citizen who cares.
Looks like a gun. It fires non-lethal rounds, either projectiles or tear gas pellets.
Either one's going to stop that attacker in his tracks for, well, long enough to get the police, that's for sure. It's legal in all 50 states.
You have to be over 18 years of age, but you should own one. Not every dangerous encounter should be lethal or require lethal stopping force.
Sometimes less lethal is the way to go. Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

Glenn Beck will be right back. There's only one place where history, culture and adventure meet on the National Mall.

Where museum days turn to electric lights.

Where riverside sunrises glow and monuments shine in moonlight.

Where there's something new for everyone to discover.

There's only one DC. Visit Washington.org to plan your trip.
Man, I get so angry. I apologize for being so angry i didn't start off that story that angry but as i started reading it and saying it i mean i talked rationally to pat about it and then i get on the air and i'm like you know these freaking dirt bags they are terrorizing people yeah and they think they're morally superior and can do it, but they would never allow us to do it, nor would I want to do it.

Or would I?

Because maybe it is my sacred duty. Yeah, maybe it's the noble thing to do.
noble thing to do to expose this reporter and who else is involved with him in his life? Completely unrelated to what he does on the reporting. But maybe we should look into it and don't think I won't.
It's also hard because I've got a and just a searing dislike for the Salt Lake Tribune that's pretty much always been there. Yeah, we both do.
This story about Data Republican is not about that. But we both have a problem with the Salt Lake Tribune, but also, even worse, the Deser that thing should be sold should be sold you can't control and stand for the value the deseret news is owned by the church in salt lake and if it can't stand for its own american and religious principles it should be sold pat gray does a show right before me i don't own the blaze okay i'm the founder show right before me.
I don't own the blaze. Okay, I'm the founder of the blaze, but I don't own the blaze.
But if I did, and believe me, even though I don't, if Pat, who is so closely related to my show, he came from my show. And if he was doing a show on this network, and he was standing against all of the things I would not say, well, I need a show.
I cancel that show. Yeah.
All of a sudden I'm pro-abortion. Right.
And I'm anti. No, I cancel that show.
Yeah. I mothball his studio until I can find somebody that doesn't stand against all of my values because it harms my reputation because people then think oh well glenn must believe that because he's having him do that now i don't have control of who is hired and fired from the blaze at one point i did and i would never put up with it never because it hurts my reputation so why is the deseret news i mean you don't need it anymore you could hire 10 people and just do the stories that actually matter eternally and you could get 10 people even if it's one story a day that would be better than a whole newspaper of crap that goes against your values.

That's just my opinion.

And it attacks people like Mike Lee.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Calling him an extremist.

Yeah.

Mike Lee is the furthest thing from an extreme.

You know who is an extremist?

The author of that article in the Salt Lake Tribune.

And maybe he should be exposed as one of those.

Does he drive a Tesla? What car? Why doesn't he drive a Tesla? Maybe somebody should firebomb that car because it's not a Tesla. No! That makes you a terrorist! But I'm guessing that his cohorts that work with him are probably laughing at people who are firebombing Teslas.

It shows them.

They shouldn't buy a Tesla.

Really?

Teslas and the Chargers, which, by the way, are paid for by us.

So you're firebombing your own tax dollars.

You're sticking it to him.

You got him. Yeah.

These people are so stupid.

Oh, my gosh.

It's really, truly amazing that they can actually tie their own shoes,

let alone get into a car.

Well, they might have a Tesla that drives them to the Salt Lake Tribune.

Yeah, hopefully.

Because otherwise they wouldn't be able to get there.

May I just say that, what's the name of this thing? The Wasatch Distillery. The spirits of the Wasatch Distillery.
I'm an alcoholic, but if I were there and I was driving by, I would go in and say, here, beer for everybody who wants to come in today because they're getting a boycott, unreasonably so. They're going to get all kinds of backlash.

But it was the noble thing to do, wasn't it, Mr. Reporter?

Who so far hasn't been named on this program.

Will he be?

I don't know.

This is Glenn Beck.
