Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

We're so glad that you're here today.

There is a lot on our plate we want to get to right away.

Jason Buttfield joins us.

We're going to talk a little bit about what we're covering on the show tonight.

We're going to lay out the case that now apparently is being turned over to a grand jury.

The case against Obama, Clinton, Clapper,

Brennan,

all of them, all of them, the deep state.

There's some interesting things being said by some of them and an interesting poll that has just come out that shows most Americans now believe Obama was involved in criminal activity.

That's an astonishing poll.

We'll get into that here in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

Our sponsor is Z Factor.

It can go without food, sunlight, social interaction, but sleep is not one of them.

Sleep is not a luxury or a nice to have.

Jason Buttrill, welcome to the program.

How are you?

Thank you, sir.

I'm doing amazing.

I feel like with all these disclosures and everything coming out that we're finally getting some answers that we've been frustrated on.

I know the audience has been frustrated.

I share those with you,

but now things are becoming clear.

And

I'm hopeful.

I'm definitely white-pilled right now.

I'm feeling a lot of hope.

It's great.

I'm glad to hear that because

right now, I mean, I mentioned this yesterday.

My doctor said to me,

oh, 15, 20 years ago, I'm not going to talk to you about surgery until your back is so on fire that you're begging me.

And I've been about three months into the absolute, I'm begging for surgery now

that I am so, it's weird what pain can do to you.

It will just, I'm so blackpilled on everything right now.

So blackpilled.

You know, I, and, and, and, and part of it is just because I'm becoming unreasonable.

I'm having, as I said to Jason and Sarah, feel free to jump in at any time today because I can barely concentrate on anything and hold thoughts together.

But,

you know, between that and the fact that we have not seen

anything,

anything, any sign of justice, I have, we've seen a lot of stuff.

We've seen 41 Planned Parenthood

centers close.

That's

a very big deal.

41 Planned Parenthoods have closed.

We have seen the Corporation for Public Broadcasting just gone out of business.

And I don't celebrate that, but I do celebrate our tax dollars not going to NPR and PBS anymore.

You can sell sell commercials.

You have big boy pants.

Oscar the Grouch can help you out.

He's probably got very deep pockets if he had legs.

So, I mean, you can handle that.

We're seeing things that we've never seen before, and things are going really well in some areas.

But the biggest area I think that is the one that bothers most people is there's no justice.

It doesn't seem to be justice.

For those people who are in the elite circles, they don't pay a price.

And

we're going to do, we're laying out a show tonight that

Jason and I have been working on now for,

well, I mean, it seems like we've been working on this one for 15 years.

The next two shows are going to lay some stuff out next week.

We have big chalkboards

and we're going to lay it out almost like we did the impeachment trial

because we've had all of these pieces, but now we have proof of it.

And that has not given me any satisfaction.

But is it Pam Bondi now that is giving you hope?

Or is it just the fact that this is becoming so

provable now?

Yeah, I think it's that it's becoming provable.

And the fact that we do have an administration that is referring this towards some kind of criminal proceeding is very, very uplifting.

But I mean, Glenn, you and I have walked through chalkboards and we're like, okay, this is what happened.

Like this dot connects to that dot.

There's these people.

We have these documents.

But there was always one little thing where we were like, but we need this that just, that's it.

Like, we know this is true, it's common sense.

Yeah, but if we had this, it is over.

And now we're starting to see those like questions that I didn't, I completely forgot about.

Like, um, who would think that we would see possibly an answer on the Bill Clinton, uh, Loretta Lynch meeting on the tarmac in Arizona?

Remember that?

I mean, yeah, how would that come through now where we're like, oh,

that's what's happening?

Now we know where that originated from.

Like, we're starting to see answers.

Who would have thought, Glenn, that we would see now through RussiaGate answers to questions that we had about Ukraine and the George Soros Open Society Foundation and their collusion with the Obama administration?

You and I dug through emails.

What year was that?

I can't even remember where we were showing collusion between the two of them to basically steal a country.

Now we're getting answers to that off of a Russian gate disclosure.

Yeah, 17, 2017.

And you know what's so frustrating is we knew this was true.

And I guess we should rephrase this.

It's satisfying.

We knew this to be true, but like you said, we never had the pieces where we could say, case closed.

You still had to take a leap of faith and say, okay, well, that makes total sense, but you've got it 95%.

You know what I mean?

You've got it maybe, worst case scenario, you have 80% of it.

And so, yes, but is it beyond a reasonable doubt?

For me, it always has been.

You know, once we get up around 90%,

I'm sorry, but reasonable doubt, you can connect the dots and you look at the pattern over a long period of time and you see who these people are.

And you can say, without a doubt, without reasonable doubt,

or beyond reasonable doubt.

But, you know,

that's not good enough to be able to say other than what we said is this is our theory on what happened.

Now it is becoming provable fact.

And that is, it is quite satisfying.

And to see that

they are now getting all of the records.

They are

convening a grand jury.

It looks like this might happen.

Yeah,

I think it is going to happen.

And I'm just kind of rolling through some of the like maybe potential charges that I could see.

I could easily see multiple people within the FBI getting charged with

obstruction of justice.

I could easily see that.

Another question that we had just based off of that point, you know, remember, I mean, there's all these flash points within the past decade plus of history where we were looking at the TV screen as something was going on, like a James Comey going on TV, public announcement saying he's not going, he's dropping the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server.

We were like, what?

Like, how are you giving this response of intent somehow, like fitting that in to say why?

And now we're looking at like this Durham annex and we're seeing the reason why they're dropping the case is pretty much they were scared to death.

The deep state, quote, was exasperated, not knowing what to do because of all these leaks.

They did not know what to do.

So the FBI

apparently was like, we've got to shut this down now.

Why?

Well, also, and as we'll show you tonight, the

granddaddy at the top, the president at the time, was saying, I need to use all levers to shut this down immediately.

Too many scandals, end of my term.

We have to shut this down.

It's bringing everything into context.

And it's kind of amazing to me that we're not seeing more in the mainstream media draw some of these connections and pointing some of these things out because they're huge.

Of course not.

We will not see this in the mainstream media.

I mean, this is going to happen, you know, without it.

I mean, did you see the guy?

This is from just the news.

So John Solomon,

the guy who was, you know,

the signer and really one of the big pushers, Larry Pfeiffer of the Hunter Biden laptop letter.

Yeah.

You know, saying that the, you know, the Russians.

He is still saying today, he has come out and he has doubled down that I'm telling you, that was a Russian op.

What?

Are you nuts?

You really think you're going to get away with it?

And here's the other thing.

They are starting to make sure that the statute of limitations

is

not a thing of the past.

You see that Brennan and Comey had come out and they said, all of this stuff is false, yada, yada.

And they wrote an op-ed in the New York Times.

That

has now opened them up again because it's dragged it into a new time period,

even though a grand conspiracy can

forget about all statutory limitations if it's a grand conspiracy.

But they just did it.

They just did it again.

They've opened themselves up to

prosecution because they just perjured themselves again.

Yeah,

keep on doing that, boys.

Yeah, keep on doing it.

And that's been their strategy.

You know, if they're confronted with overwhelming evidence and guilt, they just double down and say, nah, that didn't happen.

That's always been the left strategy on these things.

My hope is the time is now different, and that is over, and that is no longer going to work.

That's my hope.

So listen to this.

According to Tulsi Gabbard, the nation's top intelligence officials, my refusal, this is Mark Elias, my refusal to post on Twitter is being reviewed by the Department of Justice as evidence of wrongdoing.

No.

Explain who Mark Elias is, Jason.

Remind people.

This guy is

everywhere.

Everywhere throughout these scandals.

He's pretty much

the conductor of the Les Lawfair on anything they want to do to shut down whatever conservatives or the Republican Party wants to do.

He's pretty much the conductor.

Yeah,

he's an architect.

He's also involved in Act Blue, is he not?

That I do not know about.

I'll check that.

Check that.

Okay.

Maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.

But

he has been everywhere on anything legal, and his fingerprints are all over this case from Tulsi Gabbard.

He said he writes, if that sounds preposterous, it is.

If you don't believe it's true, neither do I.

The question is, why did Tulsi Gabbard say it?

What does it mean for the Trump administration's weaponization of government?

He's now saying that government is being weaponized by Donald Trump.

I became aware of the latest conspiracy theory in an unusual way as a question on a pro-democracy podcast.

I love that.

Within minutes of sitting down with Tim Miller from the Bulwark podcast last Thursday, he asked me about the right wing's latest attack on me.

I don't know if you've seen this, but Glenn Beck says that Mark Elias has stopped posting on X.

John Kerry privatized his account and Peter Strzok deleted his account.

Is the deep state panicking?

Miller asked jokingly, Are the deep state and you are you panicking?

I responded with,

Do I look panicked?

Each time I'm targeted, the volume of hate I receive online and in correspondence spikes.

Oh,

oh, is that happening to you, Mark?

Oh,

welcome to my life.

Oh, I don't know, circa 2002.

Some of it's deranged.

Much of it is anti-Semitic.

What?

What?

Apparently he's Jewish.

I didn't know.

Apparently he's Jewish.

And

he's on the left.

So

this is the, I mean, now

if you're targeted by anti-Semitism, it's coming mainly from the left, my friend.

And thank you for growing it on the right.

You've done such a great job.

Anyway, some of it's deranged, much of it is anti-Semic, and it's deeply conspiratorial.

Like Beck, many of the purveyors of these lies accuse me of being part of the deep state.

Now, listen to this.

I've never worked in government, and I have no ties to the U.S.

national security agencies.

That doesn't mean that you're not a member of the deep state, dude.

I mean, NGOs,

non-governmental organizations.

I mean, they're part of the deep state.

They're getting funding from the state to do the

is it really?

You know who else has not been part of a state organization?

George Soros.

He's definitely part of the deep state.

You are, you're one of the, I'm not sure if he's an architect or he's just one of the footmen, but

he is absolutely, in my opinion, part of the deep state.

And, you know, we see this because we've done chalkboards and his name continues to appear over and over and over again.

You know, it's like

if you're a detective and there's,

you know, a serial killer on the loose and it's the same MO.

At some point, you begin to look at the crowd that's around that body every single time.

And if there's a couple of people that keep showing up and they're at the scene of every crime, you're like, wait a minute,

that's interesting because how are you guys always here?

Why are you always at the scene of the crime?

Why?

Can you explain that?

He's always there.

Yeah,

you talk about like connecting.

We connect dots, and especially when we do these uh chalkboards and we're not accusing you anything uh obviously Mark Elias, but like when when the dots go through and we talk about George Soros, we notice that you also worked at Perkins Coy.

$5 million went from George Soros to Perkins Coy.

We also know that you were there in April 2016.

Mark Elias, you hired or helped to hire Fusion GPS, the people that produce the steel.ca.

I don't have to draw too many more connections off of that.

They're doing it themselves.

I mean,

you may not, it may not be the legal standard.

You know what I mean?

There may be a reasonable doubt for a jury, but this ain't a jury, man.

This is not a jury.

We're just looking at the people standing around going, I don't know.

I don't know.

There seems to be an awful lot of activity here with Mark Elias.

I think maybe we could put him in the category, at least non-legally, in a category of, I don't trust that dude.

Maybe that's just me.

All right, back in just a second.

Let me tell you about our sponsor.

NMLS182334, NMLS NMLS ConsumerAccess.org.

APR for Rates in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

Okay, let me tell you about American financing.

American financing, you know, it's amazing how quiet financial stress can be.

It doesn't always show up as a crisis.

Sometimes it just lingers there.

It's a tension in your shoulders, a sinking feeling when the bills show up, a thought that keeps you up at night whispering, I don't think this is sustainable.

There is nothing worse than this feeling feeling of, I don't know if this is sustainable, especially,

you know, I think it's just as bad.

When you know it's not sustainable, it's bad.

When you're not sure it's sustainable, I think it's just as bad when you're like, I don't know, I just don't feel comfortable.

I think, and you're afraid to look at it.

Don't be afraid to look at it because you're afraid to look at it because you think there's no answers, but there are answers.

And you can find them with the people at American Financing.

American Financing is going to help you find the right way out of your financial situation.

They're going to be able to show you things that you may not have even considered.

And the person, the people in this audience that are going and doing business with American Financing are saving an average of $830 every single month.

That's like a $10,000 raise.

That would help an awful, if your boss came in and said, I'm going to give you a $10,000 raise, would that be a good thing?

You wouldn't think twice.

Why haven't you called American Financing yet?

That's the average that people save in this audience just by calling American Financing or going to AmericanFinancing.net.

The number is 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

It's AmericanFinancing.net.

10 seconds and back to the show.

If you think back on all of the chalkboards that we've done over the past 15 years, the questions that I have asked, Ukraine, RussiaGate, weaponization of government under Obama and Biden, the use of non-government organizations, NGOs, think tanks, Soros, Open Society Foundation, it has been a very, very long road.

We might actually be at the end of that road, or at least being able to answer the critical questions that we've been asking for so long.

Both the ODNI disclosure by Tulsi Gabbard and now the Durham Annex release have given us a glimpse into so much more than just Russia Gate.

Multiple questions, multiple chalkboards are now becoming so very, very clear.

If you are a fan of the chalkboard shows and you've been monitoring, you need to watch the next two Wednesday night specials.

Tonight, we're going to begin to pull back the curtain.

We're going to use the Durham Annex to answer some questions that go back over 10 years.

And next week, we're going to use that context to map out the entire deep state operation up on a giant chalkboard.

It's a series you cannot miss.

It's so much more than what it appears.

And that's why the mainstream media

they may be delivering themselves the knockout punch this time.

It all starts tonight, the Wednesday night special at 9 p.m.

Eastern on Blaze TV and on my YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Glenn Beck.

Trump just uncovered a much bigger scandal than Russia gave.

Tonight, 9 p.m.

Blaze TV and YouTube.

This is Glenn Beck.

Have you ever noticed how young dogs just go?

Young people do that as well.

They just go and go and go and go and go and go.

And they wake up ready to run.

They don't have to spend half an hour stretching.

They don't sip coffee.

They don't check emails or complain about Mondays.

They just bolt into the day like it's the best day of their life because to them it is.

But as your dog gets older, older, that natural energy starts to fade, and the bounce isn't there anymore.

And the chase gets shorter, and the naps get longer, and it, I mean, it happens gradually until one day you realize your dog who used to zoom around the yard is now just watching from the shade.

This is why I recommend Rough Greens.

It's a nutritional supplement that you add to your dog's food.

It's not a pill, not a powder that they just spit out.

It's a simple mix of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and nutrients that help fuel a healthier, more active life for your dog.

And right now, you can get a free Jumpstart trial bag for your dog today.

It's a $20 value, but you'll get it for free just to cover the shipping, and that's it.

And you'll be able to see if your dog likes it, eats it, and I think almost immediately you will begin to see differences in your dog.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

We have another sex toy on the WNBA floor incident that has happened.

It's apparently

the thing to do nowadays.

Yeah, Glenn, this is breaking news.

It appears the third

toy has now been launched from the audience and rained down onto a WNBA court.

So yes,

big things are happening.

Is it the same team?

Is it happening to the same team?

Because

wasn't it the Bills fans?

Didn't they do that to the Patriots for a while?

Which you kind of understand.

That makes sense.

That makes complete sense.

That makes sense.

I think this is

Indiana and Los Angeles.

I have no idea what WNBA teams call themselves, but it's kind of funny because it doesn't even look like the ladies are that mad.

Like this one chick is just kind of cracking up.

I mean, it is, you know, they're being, people are being arrested for this.

What?

I want to know what sex toy violation is is happening here.

What law is there?

Maybe there's like a clause.

Yeah, I don't know.

Like, did you buy a ticket?

Yeah, I mean, you know, I understand it for the NBA.

The NBA is saying that if you do this,

they're kicking you out and you won't be able to go to another

WNBA team game, which is like, oh, darn it.

If I could be banned from it, at least I've had an excuse.

It makes me want to go buy a sex toy and throw it out onto the, onto the court just so I have an excuse.

I could say, no, I wanted to support them, but they won't let me in.

Anyway,

people are being arrested for this, and I can't imagine what the law is that they're breaking.

Yeah, I get, I, yeah,

I kind of feel bad for the WNBA a little bit because, you know, if you've watched like highlights, the, the product there is just not amazing they'll go through like they'll go through you know minutes without scoring a basket I think that I think that people's pushback now it's kind of funny is people are being forced into accepting that they have to watch this that they have to be okay with you know a women's

basketball league you know getting paid just as much as a men's basketball league it's just yeah yeah no no those days are ending that that whole lie is all these lies are just coming crashing down which is really good but I want to get back to the sex toy thing because there is there seems to be a global epidemic of this.

Let me listen to this story.

This comes from the New York Post.

A naked man wearing nothing but a stocking mask and plastic clogs while carrying a sex toy on a stick has been startling tourists wandering around a historic castle in Slovakia.

The unidentified intruder posed for a picture carrying his bizarre prop, Monday, near a castle.

He reportedly apologized to the two female hikers that spotted him, claiming that he thought no visitors would be around on Monday, and then let him take a picture.

He had a stalking mask on, a stick, and a sex toy stuck to the stick.

Quote, we were scared of him, but he told us he was sorry.

He didn't want to scare us, so he just asked us for directions because he thought that since it was Monday, he wouldn't meet anyone.

The

naked man with,

you know, a

sex toy on the stick, boy, there's so many things I could say here, and I'm just not going to say any of them,

left suddenly.

He apparently, They thought he was following, the women thought that they said, when I turned around,

he turned and started to follow us i was terribly scared inside one of the tourists said yeah well i think so he looks like he's wearing an executioner mask and he's completely and he looks like when i say an old medieval executioner what body shape comes to mind

okay

he looks just like what you're thinking right now except he's naked okay

she said uh i guess

nobody would have believed us that we could meet someone like this in the forest, but he allowed us to take a picture of him without any problems.

I was lucky that there were two of us.

I can't imagine what I would have done if I would have been alone.

He said this was relaxation for him.

He often walks naked in the woods like this.

Okay, that doesn't really explain the stick.

or the mask.

I mean, you need a walking stick?

Okay,

But

why do you have the sex toy at the end of the stick?

You know what?

Don't answer that.

I don't think I want the answer.

I think you're going to be seeing a lot more of this, really.

I mean, people, this is being normalized.

Did you see the Canadian prime minister just a few days ago at the Vancouver Pride Parade?

Yes.

I mean, he's,

there's this one shot where he's hugging a man that's in what looks like nothing but pink panties.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, right there.

No, it's a pink thong.

It's a pink thong.

It's a pink thong.

It's yeah.

From a man that should not remember the executioner, I just had you imagine.

Now imagine he's wearing a pink thong.

There you go.

This is the problem with radio is

it just, it uses your own imagination

and your own imagination is probably worse than what the actual picture is, but not in this case.

Not in this case.

By the way, you know, you said that this is where we're being desensitized to all of this.

This brings up

Howard Stern

no longer being wanted at XM.

XM is like, yeah, he's not really worth his $100 million contract.

And so they're not going to renew.

And I was thinking about Howard

today because

when I was 18 or 19 years old,

18, I was working at WPGC in Washington, D.C., which was a huge radio station.

And it was right there in the nation's capital, and for years it had been number one.

And

then Howard Stern came along.

And Howard Stern took everything and turned everything upside down.

And

when the,

what was it, the Florida Airline, you know, like Sunshine Airlines or something.

I can't remember what it was, but it plowed into the 14th Street Bridge.

It was taking off from Reagan National Airport, not called Reagan back then, just national.

And

I think it couldn't get enough height or something.

And it crashed right into the 14th Street Bridge.

And while they were digging bodies

out of the Potomac, He called the airline and tried to book a seat live on the air, tried to book book a seat to the 14th Street Bridge.

Would like to buy a ticket, please?

Yes, sure.

Where are you going?

The 14th Street Bridge.

And the person just fell apart.

And it was so horrible.

But everybody was listening to him because he was, I think you were the one, Jason, that said he was like punk rock.

You didn't necessarily listen to punk rock because you liked punk rock.

You listened because nobody else was saying anything like that.

Nobody else was doing anything like that.

And he became wildly popular, then went up to WNBC Radio and totally changed that.

Don Imus, who was actually a class act and very, very intelligent,

hated Howard Stern, and Howard Stern hated him

because,

you know, at the time, well, they're just from a different generation.

No, no, Howard did so much to destroy our culture.

And it's funny that he embraces now people like Al Gore and the left and big government because he was always anti-government, always.

And the people that, you know, were the leaders against Howard Stern's show

were not people like me.

They were people like Al and Tipper Gore.

And now he embraces all of those people and embraces this big government.

The one thing that Howard Stern did do is he fought the government and won.

Most times, he won.

And

he was a trailblazer for freedom of speech, but he was also a trailblazer for just degrading of our society, the degrading of women and relationships and everything else.

And he was a real,

I think he was.

apox

on our culture for a very long time.

He was an innovator, to be sure.

And then he seemed to, I don't know, right around 2000, 2000, between 2000, 2010 or so, he started to just concentrate on interviews and he became one of the best interviewers of anybody on radio or television.

And I know because he interviewed me one time and I was 20 minutes into it and I was, my guard was way up.

And I was 20 minutes into it and I stopped and I realized I was telling him stuff that I hadn't told anybody before.

And

I thought, What the hell am I doing?

This guy is a magician, he's a hypnotist, he can just make you so comfortable.

And that's what made him a great interviewer.

He could make you feel so comfortable, um, and that you would just share everything.

And so, he got great interviews.

And then, after COVID, I think he went insane.

I really do.

I think COVID radicalized him into this big state

monster.

I mean,

the 20-year-old Howard Stern would be disgusted with the 70-year-old Howard Stern.

But that's the way a lot of these, you know, I can't put him in the hippie category, but he is of that age or close to that age

to where.

the younger self would be disgusted by the big state government guy that he has become to where you know you can scoop up anybody and just tell them exactly, you know, what they're going to inject into their body and everything else.

And

it's crazy.

He went nuts.

And once again, this is not Donald Trump.

Donald Trump, I think, was a fan of his.

Donald Trump was a regular on his show for a very long time, very long time.

And Howard Stern loved him until he became president of the United States.

And then, of course, because

he was on his journey of just becoming this die-hard

Democrat and not the kind of Democrat that was for him, if there were any.

I shouldn't say Democrat.

Liberal.

He was always liberal and believed that you could say whatever you want, do whatever you want, and I don't have a responsibility for society and everything else.

And that's fine, whatever.

I disagree with you, but fine.

But he became this Democrat.

And so as soon as Donald Trump became the candidate, he went nuts and never changed on that.

And then COVID happened and he went even crazier.

And it just was announced, I think it was announced yesterday, that XM has just said, okay, enough is enough.

We can't do this anymore.

We just can't do this anymore.

You're not worth it.

And like Stephen Colbert, it's just that

you've just lost touch with what you do and who you are.

And, you know, Stephen Colbert maybe was funny at one point.

You know, he is a, I don't mean to, just because I I disagree with you doesn't mean that I don't, that you're not funny, so I shouldn't say it that way.

Um, he is, uh,

I think he was funny for a long time.

I think he just started to take himself so seriously and put himself in this mission role, which understand,

I have done the same thing myself.

I've put myself in this mission role, and I, I,

you know, maybe I'm going to turn out to be 71 and looking back and going, geez, would the young me like the old me?

I'm not even sure anymore.

But

when you start taking yourself so seriously that you are the one that has to change the world, like Stephen Colbert, you're the one that has to,

and I guess it's not, I'm sorry, I'm just working out.

I'm having a therapy session with you.

I'm sorry.

But I guess it's not that you

feel like you have to change the world and you're on a mission to do that.

I think maybe we should all be on that mission a little bit, but it's that you have to be the one that rams through policies.

I think that's the problem.

You're the one, and that's where Stephen Colbert went wrong.

I mean, you know, the dancing hypodermic needles.

My gosh, what the hell was that all about?

That was him feeling like, you know, he's got a responsibility to push this through.

No, no, you have a responsibility maybe to tell truth, but in that particular role, your responsibility is to be entertaining

and

to be funny.

And honestly, because that's not your show, that belongs to CBS that airtime,

you have a responsibility to get ratings.

And that's just not the way to do it.

All right, back in just a second.

So see you later, Howard Stern.

I wish it would have ended differently,

but, you know,

it didn't.

All right, let me me tell you about Lear Capital.

When it comes to money, I like the things that I can see and touch and hold in my hand.

What you can't do, what you can't ever do

with digital currency is just that.

You can't really do that on with stocks on a screen or even that 401k balance that looks great until the market drops 900 points in a single day.

Look, I'm not saying that you should bury your gold in your backyard.

I'm not not saying it either, but I'm saying if your retirement plan exists entirely in a world of zeros and ones, you might want to think about hedging that with something real, something that has been a store of value for thousands of years.

And right now, with interest rates, inflation, and global tensions all fluctuating at once, there has never been a smarter time to call Lear Capital and ask about your physical precious metals IRA.

If you've been thinking about making a move, don't wait for the next crisis to force your hand.

Get some stability in place now with Lear Capital.

Back.

We'll be right back.

Sarah doing her job today in the control room and actually doing a little of Stu's job as well said, I think that Sirius XM is making Stern an offer.

Yeah, they are, but remember, he was doing like $100 million contracts, and

he's no longer worth it.

So, you know, they're not going to offer him anything that he can take.

You know, they might offer him, I don't know, $5 million or $10 million or whatever, and he's just not going to take it.

That's what they think.

However, an inside source close to CERN's Stern said, if Sirius isn't going to give Stern a good offer, it doesn't have anything to do with his ratings.

It has everything to do with the political climate.

Really?

Really?

You know, Stern always was a guy that both sides could listen to.

Believe it or not, I knew knew a lot of real conservative people that listened to Stern all the time.

You cut your audience in half.

That is an audience problem.

Glenn Beck.

So I made a decision recently

to start carrying a Berna launcher all the time.

And I'll tell you why.

It's a question of what would I actually do if something bad was happening in front of me right now.

You know, I think about this all the time.

You're in a store, you're in a crowd of people and they start, you know, you're in Cincinnati and people start, you know, fighting.

Are you going to pull a gun out

and shoot people?

Are you willing to kill someone?

No.

But I am willing to pull out my burn a launcher and fire tear gas into that crowd and to protect, protect do as much as I can.

So I started carrying my Berna launcher and I believe so strongly in the Second Amendment and I have a gun and I will use a gun.

I have guns in my home and I'm a good shot and I will kill you.

You come into my house and you threaten my family.

The Burna Launcher is non-lethal and I want you just to check it out, please.

Hello, America.

Well, the Democratic Party is now

looking more and more like the socialists that we warned you they would become.

We hoped that they wouldn't, but warned you that they would probably become this.

And now people are starting to be very, very concerned who live up in New York.

What is New York going to look like if you have a socialist mayor there?

What is the country going to look like if you have a socialist mayor there and another socialist?

And they're both

Islamo-fascists,

you know,

Islamo communists, if you will.

The one in Minnesota and that's running for the mayor of Minneapolis and the other one that's running for the mayor of New York and people think that this is not going to change things, it does.

And I want to give you a couple of really concrete examples on why this matters.

And we'll do that in 60 seconds first.

We say hello to Jason Buttrell, who is filling in for the vacationing stew for the next couple of days.

I, you know, there's a story that came out, I think it was on Monday, and I haven't had a chance to get to it because I wanted to spend some serious time on it.

Because

there is a a story of a Somali immigrant living in the United States who was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment for raping a 12-year-old girl in Minneapolis last year.

Okay, 12-year-old girl, you get 12 years for it.

Doesn't seem right, but okay.

But that's not where this story ends.

This guy was born in Somalia during the country's civil war, grew up in Kenya in a refugee camp.

He emigrated to the United States, initially spent time in Minnesota before moving to North Dakota for several years, and then he moved back to Minnesota, where he's been ever since.

We have no idea what his citizenship looks like, but in July of 2024, he was charged with raping a 12-year-old girl.

And according to the criminal complaint, The victim said she was playing in the backyard of her family's home,

and from an alley behind the house, a man looked over the fence and started talking to her.

He then asked, hey, is your mom home?

And she foolishly said, no, she's not.

The man left the scene for a few minutes, then returned, putting his hand over her mouth and forcing her into the car, striking her over the head.

The victim said the man drove a short distance away from the home, pulled over, sexually assaulted her.

Eventually, she got away from him and ran home.

Now, according to the criminal charges, the victim had contact information for Mohamed Muse,

and that was in her phone.

Why?

When she was asked about who this is, the victim said, that's the man who assaulted her.

Using that cell phone contact, a sting operation was set up by the victim's family several weeks after the assault.

He arrived at the victim's home to, I guess, you know, take her out or whatever he was going to do with her and was taken into police custody.

So he was found guilty of first-degree criminal sexual conduct.

He was convicted.

That's when things got really weird

because

he not only got family, you know, family to write letters of recommendation to say, hey, he's not really like this.

He's not usually raping children, etc., etc.

But

when asked about his character, his Islamic center wrote about his character.

He is a deeply good man whose presence enriches the lives of those

who are around him.

We respectfully ask that you consider his character, his contributions, and his ongoing potential when making your decision.

He

genuinely strives to make meaningful contributions to our society.

We, the undersigned members of the Somali community, write this letter to express our strong and heartfelt support of a member of our community.

The Islamic Center wrote that he faced the challenge of starting over in a new culture.

Oh, did he?

Did he have to do that?

And he just couldn't take the stress of that anymore?

And so he started raping 12-year-olds?

The Islamic Center said the community has witnessed his love for his family and his kids.

He's also been an active volunteer in our mosque, where regularly he visited during Friday prayers, Ramadan, and community events.

You'll often find him helping elders.

Well, of course he's helping elders.

He doesn't need to rape them.

Helping elders find rides home or staying after to help clean up.

His service has never been about recognition, just quiet commitment to supporting the spaces that hold our community community together.

So last week, the judge sentenced him to 12 years in prison.

That is the least amount of prison time that is recommended.

The judge could not give him less prison time.

He's also required to register as a sexual offender, but here's the good news.

He could be released as early as 2033 and remain on probation for the rest of his sentence.

By the way, he also continues to deny that he committed any

sexual assault.

So he's not penitent for it.

Why did the judge do this?

Can you help me out on that?

What kind of, can you imagine, can you imagine your church

if your church,

I know mine wouldn't do this, my church found out that I was being tried for sexual assault of a 12-year-old, I think I'd be, well, I know I would be, I'd be excommunicated immediately.

And if they said anything about my character, it would be required that I be penitent about it.

that I would have asked for forgiveness.

And then I know my church pretty well.

They would have said, he's got you, he has to pay his

temporal penalty.

But we would ask that you would look into this, and this and this.

But that would all be contingent on me being penitent in the first place.

And I don't think that they would make a strong case for my character because I just raped a 12-year-old.

So, what is this

this is the islamification of our society and i warn you it is happening everywhere there's a uh there's a story out in the new york post today let me just give you some highlights of it many of my friends and former neighbors in new york where i lived for 27 years are anxious about london's future and the future of new york if it elects a mayor a self-proclaimed muslim socialist um

another great world capital already offers a glimpse of what might lie ahead, and that's London with their far-left Muslim socialist mayor, Khan.

I recently returned to my native London for the first time in more than two decades.

What I found wasn't inclusive, wasn't a cosmopolitan capital that I had known and loved, but a city so altered in tone and appearance

that I scarcely recognized it.

Over the course of a fortnight in June.

Okay, can we stop using fortnight?

I don't even know what a fortnight is.

Jason, do you know what a fortnight is?

Fourscore and seven years ago?

Is that

a fortnight?

I don't know.

Is that three days?

Can you just say three days, seven days, whatever it is?

Can you stop using the word fortnight, please?

I mean, I'm sorry Charles Dickens isn't around to explain it to me.

Over the course of a fortnight in June, the neighborhood after neighborhood left me feeling not just like a visitor, but a stranger in my own birthplace.

At times, I felt as though I was in Dubai rather than London.

Mayor Khan, a Muslim socialist of Pakistani heritage, has aggressively pursued a pro-immigration agenda during his last eight years.

Khan's London offers housing and social services that are a magnet for the record number of illegal immigrants flooding into Britain.

Khan was re-elected for a third term in May 2024.

This isn't about race or immigration, nor is it nostalgia for some imagined golden era.

I'm the daughter of first-generation Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe that grew up in a multicultural London during the 1950s and 60s.

My childhood circle included Afro-Caribbean and Persian friends.

Our high street bustled with South Asian-owned shops and takeaways run by newly arrived drivers from former British colonies.

My father's kosher tailor shop stood proudly on Brick Lane even as the East End transformed from a Jewish enclave into a Bangladeshi stronghold.

These shifts felt organic, imperfect, yes, but cohesive.

There was a sense of shared direction.

The anti-Semitic bullying I experienced at school came usually from native-born white Britons, not immigrants.

But this time, the transformation of London is fundamentally different.

What struck me wasn't just the arrival of new communities, but the visible dominance in many of the neighborhoods of conservative Middle Eastern and Muslim cultural norms.

It wasn't just a demographic change, but a palpable shift in the atmosphere of public life.

In shops, pharmacies, cafes, on the tube, I repeatedly encountered women in full hijabs and men in their

is it thwob?

Thobs?

What is a thob or thwab or?

Oh, God.

Anyway, what was missing was the gradual integration I remembered from my youth.

I saw no signs these communities were blending into the broader civic culture or even being encouraged to.

What I saw wasn't diversity, but cultural segregation, not integration, but a parallel society.

We have suggested, some have suggested my timing,

because

this person arrived during one of the high holy days of Islam, might have skewed my impression, perhaps.

But while that might explain the Rolls-Royce's and Lamborghinis with

UAE plates outside of Mayfair hotels.

It doesn't explain the sense of dislocation I felt in ordinary bureaus.

Yada, yada, yada.

It goes on and on and on to say that this is really that London is coming apart at the seams, and I think that's true.

Zoran Mandami of New York will not be transformed overnight, but if Momdani moves to double down on sanctuary policies for the undocumented immigrants while driving out the tax base needed to fund these socialist ambitions, the city I love could soon follow London's path.

London's diversity once made me proud.

I still believe in its potential, but I say this with sorrow, not anger.

London no longer feels like home.

It has been taken over.

Is New York next?

I would say that if New York puts Momdani in, and if the socialist Muslim mayor from Minneapolis is also voted in, this is the future.

What you're seeing happening in capitals all over Europe and London,

what's happening there is going to happen in those two places.

And this should be extraordinarily concerning to all Americans.

I don't care how you dress.

I don't care where you're from.

Do you want to be American?

Which brings us back to the story from yesterday, and I'll get to that in 60 seconds.

Stand by.

Our sponsor

this half hour is Relief Factor.

Relief Factor has helped me for so long on so much pain.

There comes a point, and if you've dealt with chronic pain, you know exactly what I'm talking about, when you just snap, the moment when you're like,

I can't do it anymore.

Hopefully there's a time.

where you say, I can't do it anymore.

I'm done.

I'm done missing out.

I'm done pretending that this is fine.

I'm not going to let pain be in charge.

Where does that lead you?

Either to despair or to someplace hopeful because you're taking action.

That moment is very powerful because that's when you start to look for ways for something that will work for you.

This is where Relief Factor can come in.

You know,

we're talking about what's happening in

London.

We're talking about what is happening

in New York.

And we are being fundamentally transformed in America.

We are being fundamentally changed.

And this brings us to where we were yesterday.

Where we were yesterday was we had a

congresswoman in Mexico at a conference say in Spanish she is more Guatemalan than she is American.

So her loyalty is to Guatemala

and the Guatemalan citizens more than it is the American citizen.

How is she a representative of our Constitution and our United States Congress?

You cannot have a dual loyalty like that and serve the Constitution and our country.

But this is where everything is.

We are not making people who are proud to be Americans anymore because we don't know what America even is.

I heard a guy that I really have respected for so long

in a podcast I was listening to yesterday,

and he said,

well, you know, the moonshot wasn't real.

And I thought, okay, he doesn't mean that.

And then I realized, no, as he continued to talk, he absolutely means that.

And this is an intelligent guy.

And he is now to the point of questioning the moonshot.

If you don't know that the moonshot was real, first of all, you have no credibility anymore.

You have no credibility.

None.

You know, we have little mirrors they set up so we could actually measure the distance from the Earth to the moon with lasers.

So you can take a laser, if you know where they are, and you can bounce that laser off the moon, and it will come back to you.

Okay?

We know man has been to the moon.

I saw somebody post something that said, oh,

when Apollo 11 was taking off from, you know, the moon capsule was taking off back

to join with Grissom up in space.

And our two astronauts were lifting off the moon.

And there was a, you know, a camera that was taking.

And they're like, oh, good thing they left the cameraman down there.

They didn't leave a camera.

They didn't bring a camera.

What are you talking about?

Are you really this stupid?

Are you this stupid?

But I digress.

The answer to that is yes.

Retardation is airborne.

We should be quarantined because retardation is in the air.

But

this is happening because we no longer even know what America is.

And if we don't know what America is, we can't defend it.

If we don't know what she's capable of in the bad things, this is why we have to pay attention to the bad things too.

If we don't know what she's capable of, if we lose our way, then

we're going to do everything bad once again.

We'll do it over and over and over again because we won't learn from it.

But if we don't know what the good things are,

we can't defend it.

We just abandon it.

And Guatemala to a woman who was born in Chicago, not Guatemala.

Her parents were Guatemalan.

She wasn't.

How did Guatemala become more important to her?

Or is that all an ad?

Glenn Beck.

Okay, back in just a second with more.

Let me tell you about leaf filter.

I mean, nobody wants to tell you this when you're buying a house, but you're basically signing up, you know, for a part-time job you didn't ask for.

Fix this, clean that, replace this.

And if you have trees anywhere near your roof, congratulations, you just became a full-time manager of gutter maintenance.

Every fall, it's the same routine.

Ladder out, scoop out the rotting leaves, try not to fall off the roof, and then two weeks later, it's full again.

But here's the thing.

The clogged gutters, they're not just gross, they're really dangerous.

They cause roof damage, foundation damage, water in your walls, and it starts from a little back up you didn't notice in time.

Leaf Filter is a micro-mesh gutter.

It's a protection system that keeps out the leaves and the debris, even the pine needles, while letting water flow freely.

It's permanent, it's maintenance-free, and once it's installed, you never have to clean your gutters out again, ever.

So don't spend your summer worrying about gutters.

You know what I think is really a positive thing is that there are people that are being honest, people like Bill Maher, who Bill and I don't agree on very much.

And

it's interesting to me that he is,

I mean, he's always had flashes of common sense,

and he does not like Donald Trump.

He doesn't like any of this stuff.

So we disagree.

And

this is the kind of person that I like to have a conversation with because right now he's being reasonable on a lot of things, including the Islamification of the Democratic Party and the, you know,

the

socialistization, if you will, of the Democratic Party, how it is becoming an

Islamist,

fascist, or socialist, communist kind of entity.

And he is warning about, you know, the new mayor of New York.

He's warning about the

new, you know, mayoral candidate in Minneapolis.

And I think these guys are going to win.

And

it will be our fault if we don't pay attention to what is happening right now.

And I think the

socialists have made socialism neat through school.

They have taught the youth in the country nothing about

capitalism, true capitalism or free market systems.

They've never taught them anything about that that has been positive.

They haven't talked to them about

individual rights.

That doesn't exist.

This is all collective stuff.

And then on top of it, you have the Islamofascists who have come in and deadened you to the point to where you can't say anything against Islam.

Otherwise, you're a hate monger that needs to be stopped and banished from society.

I know Muslims who are very nice people,

but there is a difference between somebody like

Dr.

Zudi Jasser, who is

not an Islamist.

He's a practicing Muslim.

But it's an updated Islam.

It's one that doesn't say, hey, kill all the Jews and, you know, it's okay to marry a nine-year-old girl.

That's all dark age stuff.

And you combine that with the medieval purging that happens during a communist society or a deep, deep socialist society, you're in real trouble.

I want you to read a book.

I just started reading something.

This is it's called The Curse of Goliath or Goliath's

Curse.

And it's by Dr.

Luke Kemp.

He's a professor at the University of Cambridge.

And he has studied the rise and fall of over 400 civilizations.

He and I won't agree on everything, you know, about what the, you know, you know, who's who in the book, et cetera, et cetera.

However, I completely agree with, so far, as far as I've gotten, with where he is on the collapse of human civilization.

He says it's not just possible, it is absolutely inevitable because we are repeating the same ancient errors, except this time we're doing it with nukes and AI

and a fragile global web that is barely holding all of this together.

And And he says, you know, the civilizations don't collapse because the gods are angry.

They don't fall because of one bad harvest or a crooked king.

They collapse because of a pattern that is seen time and time again, patterns of corruption.

Why does it matter if Obama was involved in this scandal?

Why does it matter if Hillary Clinton or Brennan or anything else?

Everybody in the media is telling you, A, it's not true.

That's corruption

B that it doesn't matter if it is true it does matter because there's patterns of corruption they are coupled with patterns of greed greed of power or money and patterns of engineered dependence

so when you have engineered dependence

You have inequality that I believe is also engineered and moral decay, which again, I also believe has been engineered.

It doesn't become prophecy that something is going to fall.

It becomes mathematics.

It's history.

And if we don't change the course of our own future, we become history.

So in the book, he talks about the things that all of these civilizations have in common.

Rome, the Mayas, the Imperial China, the Ottoman Empire.

See if any of this sounds familiar.

They were ruled by elites who hoarded the wealth.

They centralized the power and they crushed any dissent.

Then they insulated themselves in luxury while the foundations rotted beneath them.

Does that sound familiar at all?

Kemp calls these people Goliaths.

They were not built on strength, but on brittle systems.

And all of their empires looked invincible, you know, until one crack brought the whole thing down.

And the people at the top almost never saw it coming.

Or if they did, they didn't care because they thought they were going to be okay.

The perks of the palace were intoxicating right up until the point the roof caved in.

Now, if you can't see that happen, why aren't people in Washington, they surely can see this stuff.

Why do they deny it?

Or why do they say it's not happening?

Because the perks of the palace are intoxicating.

Look around.

The ones that were talking about fighting for the little man in Texas leaving and going to Illinois.

This is something we're going to get into next hour because it's if it wasn't so tragic, it would be hysterical.

It would be a comedy.

How did they get out of out of Texas?

They took private jets.

Look at the elites that take private jets to fly to climate summits while telling farmers you can't use your tractor.

How Wall Street will hoard the wealth while

Main Street can't afford a gallon of milk.

The tech oligarchs that are engineering your habits, governments that are engineering your reality.

Do you know that under Obama, we passed a law that allows our government to do propaganda on you.

Did you know that?

Why hasn't that been repealed?

Now, Kemp, in his book, he points out the

two or three fatal cracks that are forming.

And let me just give two of them here: the elite violence, not just with muskets or sword, but with nuclear arsenals and digital kill switches.

Okay?

The fragile systems,

meaning no one today can return to the land.

When Amazon Prime shuts off, our food, our medicine, our energy is dependent on systems that most of us don't even understand.

And then you introduce AI.

Our scientists that are creating AI don't understand how it works.

And then you have the coup de grace, you have what's on top, the personalities at the top.

And he says, this is the dark triad.

They're either narcissists, psychopaths, or all Machiavellian.

Hmm.

Now, he says,

Trump is a narcissist,

Vladimir Putin is a psychopath, and President Z in China is Machiavellian.

But you look at the pattern, it's in every country.

It's in every country.

And yet, we seem to be handing them more and more power.

Why?

Because they're engineering our reality, because they have the press by the throat.

So I want you to read this book, but I don't want you to get to press bite, because here's the thing.

You can do something about it.

We have to stop admiring the problem, and I'm giving this lecture to me more than you.

Stop pointing out the problem every day

without saying, okay, here's what we can do to rebuild, because

we're in the storm right now.

And when the storm passes, what's going to be left?

We have to start building brick by brick right now, personal resilience.

We have to break free from the system's trap.

We have to grow our own food, build our own community networks, restore our local economies.

Those things have to be done.

We have to restore cultural sanity.

Stop worshiping the Goliaths.

Because the elites don't save civilizations.

They never have.

It's the people that save civilization.

Who was it that saved the civilization?

Was it FDR?

Or was it the resilience of our American people?

Who won the war?

Who fought the war?

Was it the generals?

Was it Winston Churchill?

Or was it the people?

People save civilizations.

The other thing we have to rebuild is our historic literacy.

Nobody knows what came before us.

Nobody.

Nobody seems to care.

So when you don't know the history, you don't know the good things, you don't know the bad things, so you don't know the pattern.

There is a pattern to life.

You know, let me write that down.

Somebody, Sarah, write that down for me and remind me after the show.

I ought to do something on patterns because there is a pattern.

It's what we look at.

When you watch tonight's show, you will see a pattern.

That's what I'm good at.

I connect dots because I see a pattern of behavior.

And I'm like, wait a minute, that actually fits moreover with this pattern.

Okay.

And when you can see the pattern, everything starts to

make sense.

We have to learn the pattern of history and then teach it to our children.

And then there's spiritual clarity.

You know, evil, when I was a kid, evil showed up in horns.

You know, it was in a red suit and it had a tail and it had horns.

And it seemed, you know, this is again, my generation.

We missed the evil of World War II.

Nobody paid attention to the evil that was communist Russia, you know, or Pol Pot.

Nobody saw that.

So evil became like this cartoon character.

But it's not.

We're seeing it now.

It's not showing up in horns.

Sometimes it shows up in Armani suits, or sometimes it shows up as a glowing screen.

And the last thing we have to do is build parallel structures,

supply chains, governance, but most importantly, media and education.

That's why I started the Blaze.

That's why I'm so proud of the Blaze and what it has accomplished and how it has opened the door for

people like Ben Shapiro and Megan Kelly and all of these people that came in.

Nobody believed it could be done.

Nobody believed you could become as big as you were on television by doing it on the internet.

We broke that door open.

You helped build that network.

And now it's time to turn the page.

It's time to continue to do that, but the pattern has been set now.

Now a new pattern has to be cut, marked out, and laid, and that is education.

We have got to grab education back in any and every way we possibly can, in our schools, in our home schools, in ourselves, with our children.

But we have to know the history of America, the world, so we can see the pattern and then build the structures, not to replace America, but to remind her of who she is.

Most importantly, I want to stop concentrating on Goliath.

My job has been for 25 years now to concentrate on Goliath, to show you the Goliaths.

I really truly believe my job now is to focus on David

because

the fall of Goliath

is not just the fall of Goliath.

It's the moment that David rises.

Back in just a minute.

Israel is a land of history and faith and miracles, but right now it is also a land of heartache.

You see the headlines, you know what they're going through, and behind every headline there is a family, a mom who can't find milk, a father who's out of work because his shop was destroyed, an elderly survivor who's terrified now to leave the apartment.

And in that moment of need, the fellowship is there.

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on the ground in Israel for decades, serving the most vulnerable people in the country, the poor, the elderly, the orphans, those who can't flee or fight.

And they bring them food and water and medicine and shelter and hope.

And they're able to do it because of people like you, people who care, people who stand in the gap when everything else feels uncertain, when everyone else has turned their backs.

It's people like you that still stand up and say, what can I do?

When the world grows dark, God's people shine brighter.

That is our job.

Please, I want you to check out ifcj.org.

See their work.

See if you want to help stand with Israel.

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

Become a part of it now.

ifcj.org.

That's ifcj.org.

The media is peddling slop these days.

Better stay sharper.

What is that?

You might end up taking it on the chin.

Well, that's just nasty.

Glenn Beck is back in a sec.

You know, we're just talking about

this new book

and

it's about Goliath and how, you know, these empires fall over and over and over again.

This professor, he did a study of, I think, 400 different civilizations, and he shows the pattern, and the pattern, you know, is there.

And Sarah said to me just off the ear, she said, you know,

what you just talked about models the same kind of monologue you did about men being weak.

You know,

they have to step up and remember who they are.

And when she said that, I realized, you know what?

It wasn't the men who fought Goliath.

It was the youth.

Because the youth knew what the older people had forgotten or dismissed, and that was God.

And they knew where their strength was.

They weren't afraid of Goliath.

They had more faith in God.

And that is exactly, I think, what's going to happen this time around.

Look for the Davids and empower them.

Thank you so much, by the way, Jason, for sitting in.

We have one more hour.

Let me tell you about home title lock.

In a world where artificial intelligence and cybercrime are advancing faster than most people can keep up, criminals have found a new way to strike, and they're going after your home's title.

They forge your signature on a form and then they stamp it with a fake notary seal.

They file it with accounting.

It costs them a very small fee, like 25 bucks, and that's that.

Then your house is there.

I mean, it is really frighteningly easy.

When was the last time you checked if your title was still your title?

If the answer is never, that's exactly what the criminals are hoping for.

Please, AI is changing the world at a blistering pace.

Don't let it change the name on your home title while you're not looking.

Go to hometitalock.com.

That's hometitalock.com.

Use the promo code Blaze.

You can't be everywhere watching everything.

It's just too much to worry about.

Let them take care of the things that they take care of best.

That's home titlelock.com, promo code BECK.

All right, final hour of the program coming up in just a second.

And by the way, thanks for listening.

Down the road where shadows hide, Fill

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Well, hello, America.

There are some amazing things that were

said yesterday about the Democrats in Texas and gerrymandering.

I can't say Democrats in Texas, the Democrats from Texas who are in Illinois and New York and Massachusetts, you know, all those bastions of democracy and a strong republic.

We're going to get to that here in just a second.

And I want to explain why this is so important, why this has to be watched, and the unbelievable hypocrisy, just so you can arm yourself with some facts, because most people don't know what this even means.

You are way ahead of the curve, obviously.

But let me just arm you with some facts for your friends.

We'll do that here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Rough Greens.

Your dog is not just a pet.

He's a part of the family, a companion, a guardian, a source of joy and unconditional love.

And you do everything you can to take care of him.

I saw in the...

In the opening segment here, there's a moment where I'm walking up the hill of the ranch with my dog, Uno, and just it caught me again.

Uno's been gone now for a few months, and

it is like losing a family member.

And

when you have that dog that is so loyal and so good, you just want to take care of him as much as you can.

And that's why we wanted rough greens.

I was just wanting rough greens, honestly, at the beginning, just out of frustration, because Uno wouldn't eat.

And we tried everything to get him to eat, and he just wouldn't.

He'd always been like that.

Well, then we found rough greens, and I asked

the doctor that actually came up with the rough greens.

I said, So tell me,

Dennis, will this just make him eat?

Will it help him eat?

And he's like, Absolutely, he'll love the stuff, but it's really good for him.

And I'm like, okay, well, I think he's really healthy anyway, but as long as it'll make him eat, that's why I started.

And then I saw a difference in him.

It was so much, so much good stuff in there.

It made him a healthier, happier dog.

And he would eat, so it made me happy too.

Okay, I want to play a couple of sound bites that came out yesterday.

First of all,

let me start

here with cut seven.

This is a state representative from Texas, Ron Reynolds.

He went on CNN and said he wasn't worried about anything that the state of Texas was claiming to do to him because they were fleeing the state

because they're on the right side of history.

Here's cut seven.

I'm not worried about Governor Abbott's threats of going to jail or a $500 a day fine because we're standing on the right side of history, making our own good trouble to fight to preserve and protect our democracy.

We're on the right side of history.

We're not beholden to the MAGA extremists that are trying to disenfranchise black and brown communities.

We're doing everything we can to protect Texans.

And so we're not going to cower to Governor Abbott's bailed attempts of putting us in jail.

This is worth our democracy.

This is not just about Texas.

As Dr.

King said, injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

This is about protecting our democracy because if they can do it in Texas, they can do it anywhere else.

So we're going to stand strong.

We're not going to back down and we're going to keep pressing forward to protect every every single Texan so that they won't be disenfranchised.

We're not going back to the days of Jim Crow.

We're going to stand up to racial gerrymandering.

Okay, this is crazy.

There's so much there.

I mean, first of all, be really careful when you say you're on the right side of history.

I mean, I don't know about you, but I question all the time, and I think this is really healthy.

Am I on the right side of history?

I don't know.

I don't know what the answer is.

History will tell me the answer.

Am I on the right side?

Am I fighting for the things that are right, correct, eternally true, and righteous?

I don't know.

I mean, there are so many things that I go back and forth on that I just don't know.

And I think that's really important to question yourself.

So anybody who, when they are firm on, you're on the right side of history, we know we don't question we're on the right side of history, really, because you are the ones with ESG forcing people to follow these rules like, you know, there's no difference between a man and a woman.

You know,

men in women's sports, men can have a baby.

Really, that's not working out well.

You know, that you're on the side that Dr.

Martin Luther King was wrong,

that the color of the skin does matter.

That was your position, and you said you were on the right side of history.

I don't think you're on the right side of history on that one.

You know, it seems to be falling apart on you because now you're quoting Dr.

Martin Luther King.

I thought

we didn't agree with Dr.

Martin Luther King.

I mean, that was your position two years ago.

So, when you listen to anybody who says they're on the right side of history, be very, very careful.

You know, the one thing that I am absolutely certain of, 100% certain of,

is I'm not certain of anything.

The more I learn, the less certain I become on certain things.

Right side of history, I don't know.

I'm going to do my best and let God sort it out at the end.

I don't know.

And then they say, if they can do this in Texas, if the Republicans can do this in Texas, they can do it anywhere.

They have been doing it everywhere since 1812.

If you knew the history of gerrymandering,

it comes from Elder or Jerry Eldridge, right?

Jerry Eldridge, I think.

Or Eldridge Jerry.

That's it.

Eldridge Jerry.

He was a founding father.

1812, he is the governor, I think, of Massachusetts.

They start to draw these squiggly lines for the congressional map.

It's later in the 1840s called gerrymandering.

But that's how it started.

They've been doing it forever.

And the worst place, well, I'll get into that here in a second.

So let me play the second clip here.

And that is

on the Don Lemon show, who knew he still had a show, another Texas state rep, Yolanda Jones, said this, cut six.

And then integration happened, and everybody thought they accept us.

They don't accept us.

They are showing us who they are.

We should believe them.

And we better have the courage to stand up.

Otherwise, we will fall for anything.

And in this country, we will be defeated, deported.

I mean, we will lose all of our rights.

And if you think it can't happen, it can.

And I will liken this to the Holocaust.

People are like, well, how did the Holocaust happen?

How is somebody in a position to kill all them people?

Well, good people remained silent or

good people didn't realize that what happens to them can very soon happen to me or somebody I love.

And so you, and even, so even if you made it, man, you have an obligation to help people who can't because God forbid they end up targeting you and your family.

Okay, I agree with everything she said, except what she's applying it to.

How is this the gerrymandering?

I mean, I think it's a little insulting to those who had relatives stuffed into ovens to say that gerrymandering is like the Holocaust, but maybe that's just me.

Look, you know what this is all about?

This is all about when a group of people in the government no longer believe in its own people.

When 57 elected Democrats from Texas, they didn't just walk out on their duties.

They walked out on the people.

They fled the state to avoid voting on redistricting maps, they say, are unfair.

They say they're standing up for democracy.

But where did they run?

This tells you a lot in the story.

Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, the states whose maps are textbook examples of political gerrymandering.

They ran to Massachusetts where it was It was Eldred's Jerry that gerrymandering is named after.

He was the governor of Massachusetts.

They fled to the belly of the beast while crying, wolf, back home.

So the first thing you need to know is this is not about justice.

This is about power.

And they are betting that you are too distracted and your friends are too distracted or discouraged to notice.

So let me be clear on what is actually happening here, and we'll pick that up in one minute.

First, let me tell you about Preborn.

It is amazing how fast life can change.

One moment, you're overwhelmed, unsure, maybe even scared, and then suddenly everything looks different.

For a lot of women,

this is an unplanned pregnancy.

And they are terrified.

They feel completely alone.

And then that moment comes when they see an ultrasound.

They hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time.

It's not just a decision.

It's a child.

It's a beating heart.

It's a new life growing inside of them.

Pre-born is the pro-life ministry that provides free ultrasounds and life-saving care to women who need it the most.

They partner with clinics all across the country, especially in high-risk, high-abortion areas, to reach women right where they are with compassion and hope and truth.

As abortion continues to rise, Pre-Born is expanding their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of our nation to help more hurting women and save more babies.

If you have the means, would you consider a gift?

I mean, you can do a tax-deductible donation of $15,000 if you've really done well this year and help place a machine in a needy women's center.

That'll save countless lives for years to come.

Just dial pound250, even if you can, $28 is the price of one ultrasound.

$28,

you save children with $28 and a mom.

Dial pound250, say the keyword baby.

That's pound250, keyword baby, or go to preborn.com/slash beck.

That's pre-born.com/slash beck, sponsored by pre-born.

10-second station ID.

Okay, so the Department of Justice in Texas, this is what's really happening.

They decided that the Texas congressional map violates the Voting Rights Act, not because it eliminates minority representation, but because it doesn't create coalition districts where different racial groups are lumped together to form artificial minorities.

So what they're saying in Bureaucratic Doublespeak is, Texas has to draw maps that elect Democrats.

That's the game.

This is not about race.

It's about arithmetic.

If a Republican map spreads voters too thin, it's racist.

But if a Democratic map does the same to Republicans, it's equity.

That's not...

That's not the law.

That's manipulation.

And our founders talked about this.

In Federalist Papers No.

10, James Madison warned us of the dangers of factions,

organized groups that put their own interest above the public good.

And that's what we're experiencing everywhere.

He said, and let me quote, the instability, injustice, and confusion introduced into the public councils have been the mortal diseases which popular governments have everywhere perished.

End quote.

That's what this is.

This is a faction, a political machine so drunk on power that it can't even pretend to be consistent anywhere.

They invoke democracy and then they run away from their duty to vote.

They wear shirts to say, let the people vote, while ignoring votes in New York that created an independent

redistricting commission.

This is the rot Madison warned us about.

Faction over function, power over principle.

So

let's look at Illinois for a second.

In Illinois, they didn't try just to gerrymander there.

They eradicated the Republicans.

They drew a map so surgical, so cynical, that analysts have now said this is the worst gerrymander in the country.

It's in Illinois.

Republicans, now, I want you to hear this.

Republicans now hold three out of 17 seats.

Okay, well, the voters spoke.

Well, did they?

They won over 40% of the vote.

40% of the vote, but they only hold three out of 17 seats.

That's not representative.

That's gerrymandering.

And now, Texas Democrats, they're running for cover.

They're hiding behind the very injustice they claim to oppose.

They also don't recognize that by millions, because of their policies, millions of people have moved into Texas since the census.

There is no real representation of the people because millions of people have moved in.

So

what do we do?

Well, this is something I think you're going to hear me talk about a lot lately is look to the future and rebuild.

First thing we have to do is expose the hypocrisy on this, not with shouting, but with actual facts.

You have to use your voice.

You have to first teach what gerrymandering is.

Okay.

It is legal.

I don't like it.

I wish, you know, I'm going to do a beach blackboard today.

You know, I don't have a blackboard anywhere near my house, but I do have a beach near my house.

And I was out explaining this to somebody the other day, and I just took a stick and I wrote it out on the beach.

And I'm going to do this today because there is a way to fix this.

But you have to share the map.

You have to show the math because the truth still matters.

We have to defend the Constitution, the 10th Amendment, state sovereignty.

It's not a throwaway line.

Texas has the right to draw the maps without DC micromanagement.

Okay?

They can draw the maps the way they want to draw the maps.

The same thing with Illinois.

They can draw the maps the way they want.

It's not fair.

I don't like it.

But it is the law.

Then we have to call for local reforms.

We have to have independent redistricting commissions that actually mean something.

Not performative democracy, but actual checks and balances.

I don't know if you can get there, but the more local we make this, the better.

See, you know, gerrymandering makes us more extreme because they'll run a line of constituents through a neighborhood, one side of the street, because this group on this side of the street votes for Democrats, and on the other side of the street, it's Republicans.

They literally will run that line through to gather up all of the Democrats on the street and forget the Republicans.

So that means that that congressperson no longer has to moderate at all.

The more extreme they become, the better off because they're only talking to their side.

When you gerrymander, which we have forever, our founders warned against it because you're creating these factions.

You're creating distance between each other.

And you have to equip your neighbors on this.

If they don't understand this, walk them through it.

Print the maps.

Compare the numbers.

Build an informed electorate.

That's our job.

That's our job.

Nobody's going to do this for us.

Don't look to the Republicans to do it.

They're going to spin it their own way.

And the other is refuse to retreat.

If 57 lawmakers can run away from their posts, make sure everybody knows you're not going to run away from yours.

We stay, we vote, we hold the line.

You know, this whole thing, everything we do today,

everything, everything in the news you see, this isn't about Epstein.

This isn't about redistricting.

This isn't about immigrants.

This is about the restoration of trust.

Trust.

All of it.

Can you trust the people who are redesigning the maps?

No.

Why?

Because it's in their best interest to gerrymander.

Well, I'm only doing it because they're doing it.

Okay.

Then maybe you do that, but let's work towards stopping this.

Let's work towards a system where we don't gerrymander.

Okay, but that's only going to be solved at the state level where it belongs.

You know, America can't survive a political class that lies with one face and governs with another.

But it can survive if her people, the remnant of those who really understand America and understand our history, if we rise with open eyes, with strong backs and hearts grounded in principle,

when we realize we're not powerless, we're not pawns,

We're the ones with power.

That's when everything will change.

And I will tell you,

I think I said this earlier today.

I'm not sure where the storm is.

I know the storm is on the beach.

I know it's onshore.

I just don't know what part of the storm is on shore.

I don't know if

we're hitting the worst part of it yet.

I don't think so.

But I know it's onshore now.

We have to...

batten down the hatches and then start,

you know, piling supplies up.

And I'm not talking about boards to board up the windows.

I'm talking about

building up our supplies to rebuild because this storm is going to pass us.

And I don't know what the devastation is going to be like on the other side.

But, you know, just like Mercury One does,

we put supplies

just outside of the storm's pattern because we know we've got to get them as close as we can can to where the storm is supposed to hit without it being hit itself.

So once the storm passes, we can push in and we can rebuild fast.

When this storm is over, we're going to have trouble if we're standing here with no supplies, nothing prepared to rebuild quickly because that's when people will realize there's nobody coming.

There is nobody going to rebuild.

There's no help.

If we're not there to help, that's when things get really nuts.

So

I just,

I'm very excited for next year, and you'll understand a little more,

you know, in the coming days and weeks of why I'm not talking about it yet.

But

I can't wait to get started

because

I just know what we have to do.

And that is something that I don't feel like I understood for a very long time.

You know, I knew I was supposed to warn, but I always felt there was something more to do.

I think my mission has changed.

I've been given a new calling, and

it's to rebuild.

Rebuild and rebuild right now.

Morning.

This is Glenn Beck.

Okay, our sponsor is the Burna Launcher.

Any idea what a relief it is to carry a Burna?

I mean that, really.

I mean, think about this.

You're walking down, you know, some parking lot.

No, let me put your wife in this.

Your wife is walking down late at night to a parking garage downtown somewhere, and she sees somebody coming towards her too fast, too aggressively.

Her heart starts to race.

Her body tenses up, and then she remembers, I'm carrying, I'm carrying a Burna launcher.

That gives me peace of mind.

So when I get the call from my wife and she's in the car, and her heart is raised, and I can hear her, and I say,

What happened?

What happened?

Are you okay?

She says, Yes, I'm in the car.

I'm safe, I'm on my way home.

That is worth everything you could possibly spend, everything that you could possibly do.

That peace of mind, your heart is in your throat, and your wife says, It's okay, I'm on my way home.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Glad you're here.

One more thing on this

redistricting thing, the gerrymandering.

You need to be as frustrated as I am.

You need to hear this quote.

I can't be alone in my frustration.

Barack Obama came out and said, we cannot lose focus on what matters right now.

Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year's midterm elections.

This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

Then you should undo all the gerrymandering in New York and in Massachusetts and in Illinois, where Republicans are 40% of the vote, but only hold three of the congressional seats seats, and Democrats hold 17.

How's that possible?

If they're 40%, shouldn't they be 40%,

even 30%?

Come on.

Come on.

Just

this is, this happens because we are uninformed.

And we really need to educate ourselves.

We were just talking about Madison.

and Federalist 10.

He talks about all of our founders were so smart and so well thought out and so studied

They talked about all of the things that are happening right now

Yeah, they were James Madison specifically I mean one of the biggest things they were concerned about was what you were talking about just now and they called it quote the mischiefs of faction and they were also concerned they they call out direct democracy This is also why Democrats are so focused lasered on direct democracy They know they can't get it So they do things like what's happening in Illinois where they gerrimander the heck out of it.

But James Madison, this is probably one of my favorite quotes ever.

He was talking about governments that fall under the mischiefs of faction, the things that Obama wants.

And he says these governments, quote, have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention, have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property.

And this is the best part.

And have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.

Amazing.

Think of that.

I mean, look at, don't we fit the first part of that now, Jason?

Oh, absolutely.

We absolutely feel, and look how fast

our demise has come.

Our demise is coming at us at lightning speed, breathtaking speed.

It's why I think people can't really see it.

It's happened over such a slow period of time, and then all of a sudden it's just breathtaking.

And people are,

they just,

they can't see it they can't see it coming

and it is going to be

it's violent in its ending and if you know if we don't if we don't change that's the way it is but I'm I'm very hopeful that you know like I said earlier

Goliath was defeated by David there was a whole bunch of older guys there that had forgotten who they really were, forgotten, they had been convinced they couldn't beat Goliath.

They were convinced of it.

A teenager, a kid

who remembered what was true, who knew what was true, he's the one who defeated Goliath while all the men stood around.

I mean, if that's not a microcosm of what I think is coming, where the men have just are they're failing to be men, but this new generation that's coming up, they're David.

They are David, and they are going to slay Goliath.

You watch.

Can I read one more quote from Federalist 10 from Madison?

Because he calls out these politicians, people like Al Green or people like Jasmine Crockett that are running

to Illinois or Massachusetts.

He calls out, without saying their name, people like Barack Obama.

And he calls them, quote, theoretic politicians.

And he says, quote, they have patronized this species of government, have erroneously supposed that by reducing mankind to a perfect equality in their political rights, they would at the same time, this is the best part, be perfectly equalized and assimilated in their possessions, their opinions, and their passions.

We were warned of these people, but to your point, we have failed to call them out adequately.

We've got to be better at doing that.

Yeah, it's why the Federalist Papers are not taught.

100%.

Honestly.

It's why they're not taught, you know?

By the way, I saw a headline earlier this morning that I thought, oh, my gosh, the press must have had a cow.

They must have been so excited.

The headline just said, Trump on the roof of the White House.

And when I read that, I thought the press had to be like, yes, Jump, Jump.

But that's not what he was doing.

He was actually out on the roof of the White House yesterday,

surprisingly, which has a slight pitch to it, but the Secret Service was able to stand on that roof.

He was out on the roof surveying

what he's going to do.

And when they asked him, what are you doing up on the roof?

He said, just looking over how I'm going to

spend my money on making this place nicer.

And he's looking at adding this ballroom, which he talked to me about the things that he's doing.

to the White House that there's stuff that nobody will ever know that he is doing.

And they're all just

They're gonna cost him millions of dollars and nobody will ever know nobody will ever care but he believes that the White House is a sacred place and should be cared for and and done right

And it's it's just really impressive really really

Impressive yeah, hey there's a I was gonna I was gonna say

you and I spoke to him about a lot of this personally and what took me back was how passionate he was on this.

Not only just, you know, improving it and making it a you know, a great, you know, place, but the history involved.

I saw the biggest nerd moment of my life when you and the president were going back and forth on the history.

I think we were in the ballroom, and he was like, Did you know that happened over there?

And you were like, Oh, Mr.

President, one more anecdote about that.

And I was like, Is this really happening?

It was hilarious.

It was a nerd off.

He likes, he likes history as much as I like history.

At least that part of, you know, he loves the White House history.

He loves the presidential history.

And he's really good at it.

He's really read a lot.

But

yeah, he was talking about something that happened in there.

And I'm like, yeah, but you know about that window over there.

You know what happened in that window.

And he's like, no, what happened to that window?

He's like, you're kidding me.

And I'm like, no, that's what happened right there.

And he's like, well, you know what happened over here?

And I'm like, it was, it was a geek fest.

It really was a geek fest.

Well, by the way, speaking of the president, today at 4:30, what is being described as a high-stakes announcement is coming from the White House about Russia.

Ooh, boy.

What do you think that is, Jason?

Whew,

Russia.

It's got to be something with Ukraine,

I'm assuming.

I saw there was a deal that the president was talking about about just wanting to ensure that

they're reducing the killing that's involved.

So I'm not entirely sure how they're going to do that.

I would suppose that possibly it's uh it's through uh our new NATO agreements and you know ensuring that more weapons are probably going into Ukraine.

That's my assumption, but we'll have to see

you know anybody who says he was all for Russia now.

You see who he really is.

I mean, he is a negotiator and he has played nice for as long as he can and um

it didn't work.

And so now he's going to try a different tactic.

And, you know,

he's very good at reading the room and reading people.

And I think what maybe he misread before the election, and I bet he understands it a lot more now,

is that, and this is a theory, and I'd love to hear your thought on this, Jason, because I could be really wrong on this, but I

the theory is that Vladimir Vladimir Putin went into Ukraine because he could.

He knew that Biden was weak and would let him go in and he could get away with it, right?

That's the theory.

Correct?

Yes.

Okay.

And that might be partially true, but I don't think that's the real truth.

And you will relate to this, and it kind of goes to our chalkboards tonight.

Biden and Hillary Clinton and George Soros and the deep state, all of this stuff, remember, you know, these color revolutions, they came from our State Department.

They were actively going after governments,

especially governments in and around and friendly to Russia.

And

we were...

toppling Ukraine to make sure that we could have more control in Ukraine.

And it wasn't control because we just love peace and we love democracy.

It was for corruption.

It was for money and George Soros and all of this stuff that was going on.

I mean, we haven't even gotten to the bioweapons labs that Hunter Biden was involved in with Ukraine.

But

Hillary and Biden and that whole deep state was so focused on Ukraine, which had become a very big danger to Vladimir Putin and to Russia.

Would you agree with that?

Yeah, 100%.

100%.

Ukraine is the geopolitical

priority for them.

And

who was behind the instability and the crushing of Russia?

Was it really Ukraine or was it Biden, Clinton, Obama?

Through the color revolutions?

Yes.

All of this stuff that was going on.

We have very specific information.

You just take a look at the example of the Russian ambassador that we sent over there that told their media that he's an expert, not really in diplomacy and all that, but fomenting revolution.

Revolution.

Okay.

So my theory is, and this could be wrong, this is just a theory, but my theory is

that Putin, and I want to be really careful because I don't want to sound like I'm apologizing for or excusing Vladimir Putin.

That's not what this is about.

But it's about understanding some of his motivation.

Is he an expansionist?

Yes.

Is he a monster?

Yes.

But

did he look at that and say,

I'm going in

because I know these guys, I know what they were doing for the last eight years before Donald Trump was in, you know, this last time, and it stopped.

They're coming back in, and I'm not going to give them any room.

I'm taking that before they can plant their roots deeply in here, even deeper than they did last time.

I think that was a calculated strategic move to block the Clinton, you know, Biden-Obama machine in

Ukraine.

What do you think of that?

How likely do you think that is to be?

When life gets ahead of your list, just tap Target between juggling school schedules, surprise messes, and tag team baby duty, life has a way of throwing you off.

Honey, we're low on diapers and wipes and toilet paper

and cat food.

But what they don't know is you already knew.

With Target Circle 360 same-day delivery, it's already on the way.

Delivery when you want it.

With Target Circle 360, just tap Target.

Membership required, subject to terms and conditions, applies to orders over $35.

You know, to have played played a role in his thinking, a significant role in his thinking.

I think you're exactly right.

And I think that, you know, the Cold War ended, but there are factions within the U.S., you know, diplomatic, State Department,

and defense apparatus, that still were playing like the Cold War didn't end.

And they were still, I mean, yes, Putin, I believe, is an evil man.

He's willing to do very, very evil things, and he is an expansionist.

But so were the Western forces.

They were also expansionists.

They wanted to pursue.

If you go back and read the books of some of the people that

our side would listen to or take advice of, people like Zbignou Brzezinski.

They wanted to, now that the Cold War was over, see how far they could push NATO into the east.

And they were very, very successful at that.

Ukraine was always the crown jewel.

The problem is, Ukraine is right there next to Moscow, and Russia cannot allow that to happen.

Right.

So, and I think it's it, but it also became about corruption.

It was a center of corruption for the West.

They were using the corrupt Ukrainian government

and using it to do all kinds of nefarious things, not just stuff that we as Americans could go, well, we were playing this political game because we wanted to make sure that Russia was in a box.

It was much, much more than that.

All right, we're going to take a quick break here.

Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

This is my company, and it is a company that honestly I am so glad that I started

for personal reasons.

I mean, it just affected my life.

Tanya and I have been talking about moving.

She has always wanted to live by the water.

And I promised her a long time ago, you know, before we die, I'll, and I'm looking at the watch going, that could happen at any time.

So

I promised her that, you know, we would live by the water.

And so we started looking about two years ago here in Florida.

And there is a real estate agent that I've worked with for a very long time through real estate agents I trust.

She was one of the first ones that we really vetted.

Her name is Lisa True.

And

so I called her and I said, hey, I'm coming out to Florida.

This is like two years ago and we just want to look around.

And I said, I can't promise you we're going to buy anything or anything.

It might take a very long time.

And she was so patient and so gracious and she listened to us.

She's everything that I wanted in a real estate agent that I could recommend to you.

She listened.

She learned what we liked, what we didn't like.

And

after two years, she called us out of the blue and she said, hey, I just saw this house come up.

I went over and looked at it and I walked through and I'm going to send you this video.

I think this is the house you've been looking for.

And she was 100%

right.

And so we got on a plane just because she said that and she had so much credibility.

We got onto a plane.

We walked through it and that's the house we bought and we now live in Florida.

That's the kind of real estate agent you want.

When you're buying or selling a house, that's the kind of real estate agent that you will find.

ain't no snake oil here just truth grit and good old-fashioned common sense this is glenn beck

Welcome to the Glen McC program.

You know, earlier today, we were talking, I don't remember what I was reading, but it

was some, oh, it was a woman who just was talking about London, and she had just been over and she said, and I spent a fortnight in London.

Can you stop with the fortnight thing?

Nobody knows what a fortnight is.

Jason looked it up.

What's a fortnight?

Yeah, we're just breaking news again right now, Glenn.

We found out that fortnight is actually

two weeks,

two stinking weeks.

It comes from an old English word that translates into 14 nights.

So, yeah.

You know what?

Another reason I love America?

We don't have any, you know, dark ages, anything.

Nothing was happening in the dark ages and

middle ages here in America.

Nothing was happening, so we're not dragging that ugly past forward.

So keep your fortnight and keep it for the rest of your life, not just a fortnight.

Anyway, we'll see you tonight with chalkboards and so much more.

Tonight, the Wednesday night special you don't want to miss.

This is Glenn Beck.
