Blinds.com rules and restrictions may apply. So I want to talk to you if you're getting close to the age where you have to start thinking about Medicare or you have parents that are in, you know, starting to think about Medicare.
It is really, really intentionally complicated. There are literally thousands of choices that you could make.
And if you pick wrong, you pick the wrong one. Some of them you'll never be able to get out of and you're screwed for the rest of your life.
It's horrible. This is why you need somebody to hold your hand and all the insurance companies are willing to hold your hand.
Please do not answer the call of one of these commercials where like, we're here to give you extra help. This particular group, it is called Chapter.
This group was started by people that were in tech and their parents were screwed and put on the wrong program and they couldn't get out. And they're like, this is never going to happen to another parent on our watch.
So all the people they hire are not incentivized by an insurance company to get you to pick a certain plan. This is all separate and apart from any kind of call to money.
That's the key here. I want you to dial pound 250, say the keyword chapter, pound 250, keyword chapter, or go to askchapter.org slash Beck, askchapter.org slash Beck.
Please don't do anything on Medicare until you've askedchapter.org slash Beck. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
So glad that you're here. We've got a lot to talk about.
We're going to start with, excuse me, how were we sharing secrets about war plans excuse me what is hillary clinton around the administration is she giving advice on how to keep things super super secret this is a bad mistake and we're going to give you our read on that here in just a second first let me tell you about real estate agents i trust.com if you're ready to sell your house and move maybe've been dreaming about it for years. It is time to make that dream a reality and it should be a piece of cake, but it's not.
Median home prices over the last five years have increased by nearly 50%. 30 year mortgage rates have nearly doubled and the number of houses available for purchase has fallen by a third.
Well, that's good. That's great.
If you have to move, you need an expert. You need somebody like realestateagentsitrust.com.
The name says it all. This is my company.
We vet these people six ways to Sunday. We are on, honestly, a rubber glove away from a
rectal exam with these people. We make sure that they are who they say they are and they have the track record and we monitor every transaction.
It's realestateagentsitrust.com. That's realestateagentsitrust.com.
All right. Welcome to the program.
Hello, Stu. How are you? wonderful
oh so good
you know
I was
I was on
signal All right, welcome to the program. Hello, Stu.
How are you? Wonderful, Glenn. Thank you.
Oh, so good.
You know, I was on Signal last night.
Well, I was sharing some how to make a nuclear weapon stuff. I accidentally put Iran on there.
Don't you hate that?
Yes.
So they were part of that.
We've all done it.
We've all done it.
Okay, so here's the bad thing. In case you don't know, they accidentally texted the war plans with the Houthis to the Atlantic.
Now, how can that happen? I mean, this is not the Hillary Clinton people. I mean, i think that's expected but i got a few questions first of all is signal really the thing that we should be on with war plans i don't think so in fact isn't it illegal you're supposed everything has to be monitored for the national archives the The National Archives, you're not supposed to have personal private things.
It all has to go on government servers for a couple of reasons. I don't know.
Number one, so this doesn't happen. Number two, in case something does go wrong, somebody is doing something wrong, we have forever proof of it.
It is time. Now, here's something that the left will never do to their own.
This is a bad mistake by the administration. Okay.
Now, I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt that it was a fat finger problem. I don't think anybody did this intentionally, but still there's got to be a consequence for this and it has to make sure that this doesn't happen again.
And I'd like to know why we're on signal. Why are we doing top secret things on signal? You don't think the right.
I think, I think Yemen could get together enough cash to break into signal. Is it just me? OK, so what happened was they were having a meeting with, you know, cabinet level and they're talking about the Houthi attack.
And here's what's coming, blah, blah, blah. Well, it was sent to the guy who runs the Atlantic and he was included in included in this this text chat and he's reading and he's like i'm being trolled i'm being trolled this is not okay but he doesn't say hey guys am i supposed to be on this he just lets it go and to be i'm going to be real frank with you if this was happening and that was sent to me and it was during the Biden administration there's no way I would have said hey guys am I supposed to be on this no way I would sit there and watch it and see what happened exactly I would be like this can't be real we've had conversations like this before this can't be real but just sit back and watch because if it is it's a big deal okay so i i don't i don't fault him for not because i would have done it myself um because this is such a huge mistake and i want to give this guy credit for not coming out and saying we're going to attack the houthis now I'm not going to call them a patriot like a lot of people are because, quite honestly, put yourself in this situation.
You are on the opposite side of this administration and all of a sudden, you're added to a top secret list of what we're going to do. You would immediately go, this is a setup.
This is a setup. 100% I would percent.
I would think at first it was fake. Then I don't think it was a setup.
I would also, I would be, it would at least cross my mind. I would be nervous to think, am I legally allowed to be in, to see any of this? But he would go to his, I mean, he's the guy who runs the Atlantic.
He runs the Atlantic. He's going to get those questions.
He went to attorneys. Do we need to do anything about this?
So I would have acted exactly the same way. And to his credit, he did not release anything prior to the attack, which is number one.
The second thing is he still, to my knowledge, has not released what he saw. Now that makes me a little nervous because I want to know that somebody in the Justice Department has seen it.
So we know this is not that it is what he says it is. But I assume you'd be able to see up in the, you know, who's on our secret top secret spy meeting.
I'm sure you can see his name or at least a code name for him or his you know his his handle uh whatever it is now this was supposedly done um and and leaked by a guy who wait a minute wait a minute he is he's a i think he was a Navy SEAL or was he a Ranger? He was he was special forces. OK, he is a good guy.
He was a congressman. He's not in bed with the left.
He doesn't hate Donald Trump. So there's no way this was intentional that I that I know of that he did it intentionally.
Maybe somebody else did, but I don't think so. Here's what I think actually happened.
Because I can't tell you how many times it's happened to me. I never thought these stories were true until it happened to me.
Here's one. I'm typing.
I'm typing to Pat. Boy, Stu's such such a fat head what a ridiculous fat head he is fat fat fat send and then i realized how did stew's name get into the cc box i what did i just do by the way that's a real story we should point out you didn't just make that up and he is a fat fat fat fat i confirmed it no but i mean that's happened to everybody right i mean everybody's had that It's a dumb up.
And he is a fat fat fat fat. I confirmed it.
No, but I mean, that's happened to everybody, right? I mean, everybody's had that. Everybody's had that mistake.
And that is something that you do. You, you, you know, your finger drop down box comes down and you're like, yep, there's Stu.
And I hit Sarah instead, you know? And so, you know, that's how I found out. was a fathead it was that moment yeah uh thanks a lot sarah but everyone's gone through that right i mean like at least at the very least you've come close like you've about to click send and then you realize holy crap that name's in the you know two or cc right world of the email so i mean it is actually a pretty relatable thing it just still should not be happening but apparently nobody checked the little boxes on who's who's this guy who is this guy who who sent uh jameson not jameson greer um jeffrey gold jeffrey goldberg who sent him now if his name in the little drop box or it not actually a drop box, I think you have to go to your contacts.
Yeah. Who would be next to if Goldberg's name is there and he started typing in J or G for Goldberg, who would come up? Well, the only one that we can find that is at a cabinet level is Jam uh jameson greer now jameson greer is a cabinet level official uh his role is to look at the high level discussions that are going on about um uh tariffs okay i mean so and and national security context tariffs so maybe.
Possibly? Yeah, maybe. It would be a little strange.
Right. But you're right.
With national security involved, it's possible. So here's the in order.
Can we stop using public apps? That's number one. I don't know if anyone knows this, but there's a group of people called hackers that would love to hack in and find all of our secrets.
That's why we spent a lot of money on infrastructure. And if the administration isn't using the top secret infrastructure, the administration needs to.
Second of all, we need to have records of everything that has happened, even if it is top secret until, you know, 70 years after they tried to kill Donald Trump and Butler. Somebody in 100 years from now will say, well, I know everybody's dead, but we really can't release this right now.
But I want somebody to have a record of it. Okay.
And that's the law. Yeah, that is the law.
You're not supposed to be doing this. Now, I don't know specifically about what they're doing, but it's my understanding.
In most situations. In most situations, you are not allowed to have conversations about your job at the government off of government apps for security reasons and for National Archive reasons.
It's the law. So let's let's focus on that first.
And again, the left would never do this to their own. I mean, you know, Hillary Clinton is out bleaching, you know, hard drives.
You know, she she's been hiding all of our secret information, top secret with the with the lemonade stand on the eight year old on her street. I mean, so they never went after that.
Let's be consistent here. This is a problem, and it's got to stop.
Second of all, something has to, if this is the way it happens, somebody has to have a word with Mr. Walsh.
How did this happen? It's my fat finger. Look, this is what happened.
I'm sure this is what happened. I was looking through my contracts.
I meant to push his name, and I pushed his name by accident. I didn't check.
I should have checked. Bad.
Stop it. It's a secondary problem, though.
It is. Because he got a lot of the names right, like Marco Rubio and J.D.
Vance. Right.
So the fact that all of them were on this is already a major problem um outside of the uh the reporter and waltz i mean why would goldberg's name be in there i mean it's got to be that at least at some point he's he was talking off record or on background about something to him right like i don't i don't know what else the explanation would be again all there is a bit of speculation in this because we all we know is that the white house has confirmed this was a it appears to be a a legitimate chat so they're they're not denying it and i would heck seth did say something that sounded like a kind of a denial initially uh no one's texting war plans but i think that was well that's not a text it's not a text yeah right that's exactly what i went to was like yeah it's not technically a text maybe he was trying to walk some line there but the white house confirmed it later on right so it doesn't it does seem that it is legitimate right and hats off i mean i think there were a lot of good actors here. This is my take on it.
Now, this could change the more information we get.
My take on this was Walt's fat finger.
OK, second, we should not be using any kind of public app for anything in the government. I don't care if it's the national dog catchers federal union meeting i don't care no no one in government should ever be using public apps especially for something like this oh my god i mean it's so dumb it doesn't even it shouldn't even it doesn't even said yeah but like you know it's one thing if they were trading i don't know they're like can you believe what hillary clinton said yesterday and they're going back even that's not supposed to happen on those apps but like okay this is this is these are actual the bombs are dropping in two hours if that's actually what happened here and you're correct to point out by the way we do not have full confirmation of that quite yet like we do have the the actual language of what he released in a previous conversation about it but we don't have the confirmation of any secrets of that exact hey here comes the bombs type of conversation he just alluded to it and he's being praised for not including that because it would uh reveal potential operational details they would not have praised me and called me a patriot, nor should they.
It would have been caution. It feels like a setup.
Right. This can't be real.
And if it is, what am I being set up for? Okay. So please, let's not call him a patriot.
Let's call him a smart businessman. All right.
Because he knew he had a story. If it's true, after he has a story, he has this story.
OK, so let's cut down on the patriot talk. He I'm glad he didn't reveal any secrets.
And I thank him for that tip of the hat. Thank you for not doing that.
That's rare in your business where somebody has national secrets and they're like hey you know what we're gonna do we're gonna bomb iran okay but nobody seems to care about that stuff and i mean no i know you're trying to get onto something else but one more addition on this point yeah he needed to wait for the bombs to drop before he could confirm it was real correct so it's not like he even intentionally said i'm going to do this for national security right he didn't know it was real until the bombs dropped and he didn't he didn't think it was real right for a long portion now i think the conversations leading up to that i think at that point he was like oh my gosh i think this is real but he didn't have confirmation he couldn't write a story he couldn't go online and say by the way i'm in a text that you know chat and they're about to bomb in two hours but i will tell you so i i'm a little bit of credit but yeah some credit perspective some credit i mean there are those who have done. Okay.
You know, but can we just talk about General Milley calling his counterpart in China going, by the way, President Trump's saying this, but he's not going to do it because we're not allowing him to do it. Don't worry.
That's treason. And nobody on the left had a problem with that at all.
But everybody's upset about this. As I am.
But let's keep it in perspective. I want the National Archives to always have access to everything.
Stop using private things to talk about anything other than, how's your day been, honey? All right, back in just a minute. I don't know if you've noticed this or not, but life is pretty bad at giving you the memo that something bad is about to go down.
Storm hits, pharmacy is closed, medication you need out of stock there. Maybe you're stuck somewhere far away from the doctor and you're really sick.
These kinds of things may not happen to you every day, but they do happen. And when they do, you can be prepared for them with a Jace case from Jace Medical.
This thing comes with five life-saving antibiotics that you can keep on hand and a manual for when and how to use them. It's also got room for add-on medications that you might want to keep on hand, things like ivermectin, for instance.
Listen, half the year I live out on a ranch where my family and i are an hour away from a doctor or a hospital uh something really goes wrong in the middle of the night i'm screwed uh i gotta be prepared as much as i can not because something disastrous is going to happen like oh aliens are going to come down and start eating our ears off and I'll need antibiotics.
My kids are going to get sick in the middle of the night and I won't be able to go to a doctor or a hospital until the next morning. When you order your Jace case today, use the promo code

So here's here's something that's really exciting. If you ever got your genes tested and you did your family tree and you checked out 23 and me, you know, they were going to, they're so super solid and they're going to protect all this.
They're up for sale. So that safeguard, you know, we're going to make sure.
Well, I mean, I mean, we're not in charge of it anymore. We're selling it, but.
They're going bankrupt, right? Yeah. So they have to sell.
They have to sell um but you know what would be really honorable is deleting all of that information but you can't now that they're in bankruptcy they can't touch any of that because that's an asset that was never promised to be an asset okay nobody nobody nobody nobody said hey you keep this so you could sell it later That's not the way it's supposed to be. If you've ever used 23andMe, go in today and delete your information.
I mean, it's already out, probably on signal. But make sure you delete this information because it looks like the company may be sold to Big Pharma.
I mean, what could possibly go wrong with that? And by the way, all of your information is going to be anonymous. They're never going to know who's information.
Because that's the way they file it. They're just like, somebody, can you grab somebody's file for me? Sure.
Uh-huh. So it's it's all there's no identifying factors in that at all.
This is going to be used by Big Pharma, they say, to do all kinds of wonderful things. Mm hmm.
I don't want it in the hands of Big Pharma. That's not what anybody signed up for.
Twenty three and me. Make sure you go in and delete that information.
This is, again, we're entering a time. I think the scriptures say that there's going to come a time where there will be no secrets that every secret will be shouted from the rooftops.
Well, we're there gang. There are no secrets anymore.
No privacy anymore. Make sure if you worked with 23andMe, go in today and delete all of your information.
And don't worry, you can totally trust them that when you hit delete, it's forever gone. This is Glenn Beck.
I had a really spooky conversation with somebody last night that that is, it used to be very, very, very, very high up in the government. And we had a conversation last night about war.
And he said, you know, I'm a little concerned with the way the world is acting.
They're all preparing for war.
Look at Europe.
Look at the Middle East and look at China.
Everybody is preparing for war.
And I said, do you think that would be good?
No, no, it would not be good.
It would not be good for a myriad of reasons.
But one, we cannot afford war. The world can't afford war, but this is the way you reset everything.
Please have something that could be a backup to your dollar. If you've saved anything, please take 10% and put it into gold or silver.
All you do is call 800-957-GOLD this is Lear Capital you'll get your free $4,200 gold report showing you that it most likely is going to go up or there's a very good chance that it's going up past the $3,000 mark which it's already passed to $4,200 gold in the next 18-24 months there's war definitely war, definitely. 800-957-gold.

30 bucks. so 888-727-BECK we're talking about the texts i guess or signal messages that came from many members of the White House and security team about this Houthi attack, Houthi rebels that were hit with all sorts of bombs and such the other day.
Now, Jeffrey Goldberg is the guy who runs the Atlantic. He says, I was actually inadvertently added to this chain And I saw all this happening.
He says he was sitting in his car after he saw a message that, hey, these bombs are going to drop in a couple of hours. He sat in his car waiting to confirm this.
They did drop in a couple of hours. So that's where we are now.
The White House has, they've got an argument here. This is the argument from Carolyn Levitt.
She says Jeffrey Goldberg is well known for his sensationalist spin. Here are the facts about this latest story.
One, no war plans were discussed. And war plans is in quotes on that.
This is also echoing what Pete Hegseth said when he says no one was texting war plans. They've been using that phrase a lot.
What do war plans mean? Right. I think if there's a technicality of sorts, I think, I don't know, if you said to me, hey, we're bombing in two hours, I would kind of, I think it's okay to call that war plans.
Do you? I wouldn't. No.
No, I wouldn't. I mean, it's not a detailed map of everything you're going to do, but I mean, certainly it's germane it's yes it's inappropriate okay i it shouldn't be the timing though is of possibly the most important detail in a way like right like if you were to say like what is the one thing the houthis would want to know more than anything else are they gonna bomb us and when when are they coming yeah right like the like even if you don't know the location of the bombing right you'd rather have the timing than even the location because you could try to hide everything for that period right like so it it's not they're not war plans you couldn't say that's an entire plan of war but it is an important detail of any uh particular situation also not technically a war i guess we haven declared war, so there may be some out for them there.
That's one. Two, no classified material was sent to the thread.
This one's important, I think, because I guess it probably isn't technically classified in some way, the timing. I guess you have to go through some sort of process to classify something, considering they're just saying they're making a decision for a couple hours ahead.
It's probably just don't tell people. But I mean, it's...
Mr. President, this file is marked, just don't tell people.
Just don't tell people. We need a stamp that says that.
I like that. But secondly, it would indicate that he would not be restricted to post it right if it's no classified material he could post whatever those messages were right at the end which he's held back so far probably because he's worried they're classified but if they're not classified I guess maybe he could post them all.
Maybe we'll see them.
And the third argument is the White House Counsel's Office has provided guidance on a number of different platforms for President Trump's top officials to communicate as safely and efficiently as possible.
That is, I assume that's true.
I have no reason to doubt.
It is.
Because you just gave this last piece to me a minute ago, and I looked it up, and I have the guidelines. Okay.
I have the guidelines, so I can go through that. Sure.
Okay, so a couple of things. War plans.
To me, war plans are not, hey, I got an idea. We're going over there in two hours.
Right. That's not war plans.
That's a tip of some sort. Let me show you this.
These are war plans. This was only for the highest level German officers, and only a few of these were made.
But it's a box full of maps and battle plans. These are the battle plans for the invasion of Poland.
Now, at the time, Hitler was saying, we're not going to do anything with Poland. We have no designs on Poland at all.
It would be all self-defense. But in this war plan, if you could see, these are pictures of bridges that they were going to blow up.
These were pictures of buildings that they needed to blow up. This was their legitimate war plan.
I didn't even know this existed until we got it at auction in Germany. That's a war plan.
We're going in around two hours. That's a tip-off.
Can we point out that there's no other human being on Earth who could be like, oh, they said war plans? Hey, go get me my Hitler invasion of Poland war plans from the museum. There's not another human being on Earth who could do what you just did.
I really relate to Donald Trump.
Did you see that he had the, what is it?
The FIFA award, the soccer award?
FIFA, yeah.
Yeah, FIFA.
He has that sitting next to the Resolute Nest now.
He's got like the, he's got the Declaration of Independence on wall now.
He's got the World Soccer Cup sitting next to his, the guy is just like, I mean, it's exactly what I would do is like, hey, do we have somewhere that? Bring it in here. I think that's cool.
Soon there's going to be an alien in fluid bobbing around in some tank inside. We need somebody to do that with AI.
I want to see the president sitting by his desk with a small alien in a jar behind him so anyway uh uh so here's what here's what it said um general prohibition government officials are generally prohibited from using public tools like signal whatsapp or other 30 part method uh third-party messaging apps for official business unless specific conditions are met. That's the key.
What are those exceptions? In some cases, agencies may permit the use of non-official tools under limited circumstances, such as emergencies or when communicating with external partners that cannot use government systems. Okay.
This, you know who changed this? You know who got it so we could open up all these communications? Was it in Obama? Specifically. Oh, I don't know.
Which agency? USAID. Hmm.
They said, we need to be able to use this. Because they're talking to foreign sources.
So, Signal specific concerns. Signal is an encrypted messaging app which features like disappearing messages, which can make it impossible to preserve records if used improperly.
This feature conflicts with the federal record keeping requirements as it could allow officials to conduct business without leaving a trace. While signals encryption is robust, it is not government approved system for classified communications and its use could violate security protocols if sensitive information is shared.
However, even in cases with employees and special conditions, employees must forward official communications of an official government account within 20 days to comply with the Federal Records Act unless the communication is purely logistical and of minimal value. Which is kind of the excuse that Hillary used, right? Right.
I was talking about my daughter and her yoga practice. Right.
So the White House has, not under Trump, the White House has made it legal for some conditions that signal could be used. but it has to be recorded and reported to the national archives within 20 days okay so we we now know that's not a violation of our policies okay i don't like that policy i'd like that policy changed uh or deeply explained more than this like i don't know could we get grok to write us a top secret app i mean don't we have a bot that does that now don't we have elon musk that could just whip one of those up real quick because i mean i i could see the justification for it right i mean you could see okay like obviously official, for example, would not have access to our internal systems.
And therefore, if you're talking to them, and you need to use messaging, which again, is questionable, okay, maybe Signal is the place to do it. Why J.D.
Vance, Marco Rubio, and Mike Waltz would need to have a conversation off of those systems? I don't understand. I mean you know and look we all know that what the government is probably whatever system they have sucks and it may just very well be as simple as signal works because it's a capitalist product yeah and it's more secure than you know the federal government i wouldn't be surprised either if that if that's true that needs to that's something that i would say hey elon in between bites when you're at lunch today could you just write this up for us you know what i mean that that's something that we we need to fix so agreed uh i want to make sure everybody knows what i said earlier is you're not supposed to use these yes there is a special exemption for signal under certain circumstances don't know how this one made those certain circumstances because I don't think we know all of those circumstances.
Right. But they weren't doing anything they weren't supposed to do, at least on the surface.
And assuming that they would turn these into the archives, which would need to occur, right? Well, yes. Now, I'm sure, obviously, now they will.
Yeah, of course. We don't know how many conversations have gone on.
Well, somebody, I mean, they verified that it did happen. So, you know, they had to know, and somebody kept them.
And we know that the Atlantic kept them. Maybe.
I mean, they may have just asked, hey, is this real? I mean, Mike Waltz does seem to be, I mean, Trump today is saying, like, look, he's a good guy. He's learned.
I think he is. He's learned a lesson.
Right. Like essentially admitting.
Right. Like this.
This did occur kind of the way that it was described. But, you know, again, is at the end of the world.
They're saying no. And I think that's that's I think it's fair.
You know, because we know exactly what they did. He's admitted to it.
They recognize a mistake. Like Hillary Clinton, she was she would not turn over the record.
She denied it even happened. And then we find out that she gave all of her servers at home an acid bath and probably some of the other bodies that they killed.
You know, that was a big kill. Anyway, you know, given the gave the servers an acid bath.
Why would you do that? They didn't try that they're like yes it did happen here's what happened uh and it's not going to happen again and i i think it's totally consistent to talk about all of those things and also acknowledge horrible mistake horrible i mean it's it is we would absolutely be hilariously laughing at the Obama or Biden administration
if they did something like this.
You can't, I'm sorry, you can't make that mistake.
We've all done it.
We've all had moments like that.
But like, we need an extra layer of making sure on conversations like that.
What's nice, though, is this administration hasn't had leaks yet. It hasn't had leaks.
Yeah. Remember the last term when Donald Trump was in? I mean, it was a sieve.
It was leaking everywhere. The nice thing about this is, yes, mistake, bad mistake, needs to be taken care of.
Fix it. Fix it.
Move on.
But the good news is I didn't immediately jump to who in who in Walsh's office is setting this up, who leaked this, who you know what I mean? Yeah. All right.
It's nice to know that we have an administration that is not being sabotaged from the inside and people that are trying to do the right thing for the for the united states yeah and uh the other thing too people are you know confused about why an atlantic reporter would be in mike waltz's you know rolodex if you will he was a congressman first of all he's a congressman uh and second of all like and this i think people who don't like run in these circles don't necessarily understand these guys all talk to these reporters they and even if they don't press people they all talk to them and it's not because they're bad people and they're like leaking stuff against donald trump it's they're trying to get their side of the story in all of these stories so they all freaking give them stuff on background at one point it's been long deleted but I had Katie Coric in my Rolodex uh Ariana Huffington I mean we didn't call each other and but we met each other story and yeah we met each other at one point we're like hey here's my phone number if you ever need anything call me blah blah blah stuff happens all the time all the time it is all the time super common like and it's a lot of times it's when you're the victim of a bad story yes they will reach out to you and say well what am i what how do you explain this and you'll try to get your side into it for at least a little bit of pushback right there's an entire industry that does this and nobody can say i didn't know how to get a hold of you right you my phone number. All right.

Time to wake up and wrangle the sheep. Glenn Beck continues next.
So are you a yo-yo dieter? You know, you diet, you lose weight, but then you gain it all back. Sometimes maybe a few extra pounds on top top of that and then maybe you lose some again and then you regain it all again and then the cycle continues on and on and on and on certainly not describing my own life by any means uh you know it kind of hits home right this one kind of really does hit home for for many of us believe it or not dieting that way can be actually kind of of dangerous.
Studies show that you can increase your risk of heart attack, stroke, type 2 diabetes. You can cause other health problems as well.
And it's incredibly discouraging to achieve some of your weight loss goals and then only to have all that roll back again. So helping you break kind of that yo-yo diet pattern is the main reason doctors created Lean.

Here, play a little bit of this. I'm going to have to translate it because this is.
I'm up in Oklahoma. You see how windy it is? So I'm saying I'm out for Wednesday's TV show.
JFK. And it talks about how I'm going to try to make the exact shot that Oswald made with a moving car and see if I can do it.
Everybody says it's really super, super hard. Is it or not? And I'll tell you, you'll see the full shot of it.
And we learned two things in this, and it's pretty eye-opening. And that'll be on tomorrow's Wednesday night special, along with a rundown of everything that we have found in the JFK files.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We're glad you're here.
There's a lot going on with the court system. There was a lot of really good things that happened yesterday.
And I want to talk to you about our system of checks and balances because I don't think people understand it and it's really important for you to understand what each branch of our government can do, what the three branches are and how to explain it to the people who have no idea in your life and there's a lot of them. No idea how to explain it, what it even is.
We'll do that here in just a second. First, let me tell you about Preborn.
I've been talking the ministry of pre-born now for a few years because their mission is personal to me. Every day they're saving babies' lives, every single day.
But those aren't the only lives they're saving. These aren't people shouting down, expecting moms or any of that.
They treat them with love and respect and offering them help in a time of real difficulty, even crisis. Most of these women are in crisis.
They feel completely alone. They feel like they have no other choice.
The primary mission is really simple. When a pregnant mom sees her baby on an ultrasound for the first time, when she hears that heartbeat, twice as likely then to choose life.
The secondary mission is to provide for the needs of the moms who need it. Because even when they say, oh my gosh, that is a baby, many of them will say, but I can't afford, I don't know what to do.
They're there for up to two years, giving mom everything she needs. This is such important work.
In a time when the left will claim that an unborn child is nothing more than a clump of cells and, you know, say that the left
doesn't care, the right doesn't care about the moms or the babies after birth. We do.
Make a tax-deductible donation of $28. It'll sponsor one ultrasound.

All right, there's a few things that I want to make sure that we go over.
First of all, the FBI is now responding to the ongoing attacks against Elon Musk.
It appears as though everybody is saying
these are lone wolf attacks.
Are they?
Law enforcement now, the FBI,
has received 48 reports of attacks
on Tesla vehicles and the dealerships
and charging stations so far just this month.
And it appears that they may be coordinated. Don't know yet, but I wouldn't doubt it.
All you have to do, though, is coordinate a couple of them and then just the crazies take over from there. But we have now moved a 10-person task force of special agents and intelligence analysts from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
They've moved them into the Department of Treasury and the FBI's counterterrorism division, and they are specifically going after those people and those groups that are targeting Elon Musk and his company and your car, possibly. Speaking of cars,, big, big announcement.
Hyundai has announced $21 billion of a U.S. investment.
They are bringing one of their factories here to the United States. They're going to be building cars here.
This is another one of these things where the Trump tariffs, this part at least, seems to be working. He is threatening these tariffs and companies are starting to move here into the United States because they want the tax break.
And they also don't want the tariff on their car. Did you see what Europe did yesterday? We have had tariffs so high.
No car, no American car is selling over in Europe. One reason is their streets are really, really small and our trucks and SUVs are really, really big.
So that's one reason. But the other is you can't afford them over there because the tariffs are so high.
We don't have tariffs. We didn't have tariffs on their cars.
So Trump said 20% tariff. Well, they folded.
They agreed to a 2.5% tariff. And it looks like we're going to do 2.5%.
So that's good, especially if you're a car dealer of anything foreign, from Europe at least. That's a good thing.
That looks like that should happen and be finalized this week. By the way, there's a story out today from CNBC.
Tax revenue collected by the IRS set to plummet. Officials at the IRS and Treasury Department are anticipating tax revenue to drop more than 10% by April 15th compared to last year.
The loss of tax receipts is expected as more individuals and businesses don't file taxes or attempt to avoid paying balances owed to the IRS. The amount of loss federal revenue could top $500 billion.
Okay. Why? Officials say that the prediction is directly linked to the shifting taxpayer behavior and President Trump's cuts at the IRS.
OK, when I read that, I'm like, mm hmm. You know, this is this is another thing coming from the left, the deep state, everything else.
He can't cut those jobs at the IRS. That's too important.
We'll lose much power he can't get rid of those 80 000 people and shifting what was it uh uh shifting uh where was that receipts expected as more individuals and businesses don't file tax or attempt to avoid paying balances owed to the irs okay nobody's shifting that is there a new thing? I mean, I'm pissed at my taxes. I don't want to pay my taxes because I think they've wasted so much of my money, but I'm paying my taxes.
I don't know any big movement that's saying, we're not paying our taxes. There was a bigger movement during the Tea Party than there is right now.
But this is all a government nonsense story to get you to to get you to believe that we're all going to collapse because we've cut 80,000 IRS people that really hadn't even started doing anything yet. The House GOP is now insisting on Senate cooperation for the reconciliation talks.
The Senate has broken down. This is for the big, beautiful bill.
And the Senate needs to get their ass in gear. The country is at stake.
You cannot stall on what Donald Trump is doing. It requires action and action now.
This is a very delicate balance. He's got to have all the pieces in line.
You can't hold a piece like tax cuts back. You can't hold the piece of regulation back.
That's the kindling. He's hitting sparks now, but he's got to have some kindling that can catch fire on the economy.
And Congress and the Senate, get your ass in gear.
Now, the House voting on restraining nationwide injunctions to stop the judicial overreach against Trump.
This is absolutely imperative as well.
We knew this was going to happen.
What did they tell us as they were going after Donald Trump to make sure that he went to prison?
What did they say?
A, he's not going to be president again because we're going to put him in prison.
But we learned a lot.
The way to get this guy is to go after him with the judges in the court system.
It didn't work. But they doubled down after he was elected.
Don't worry, we'll stop him in the courts. So anybody believes that this is just spontaneously happening because all of a sudden these leftist judges are like, you know what, I really care about the Constitution.
I didn't care about it just a few months ago, but now I see how important the Constitution really is. This is nothing but another piece of failed strategy from the far left, and it's got to stop.
I'm going to tell you in a minute how our Constitution, well, you know, let me do it now let me tell you how our constitution is written and and what each role of the branches of government how the founders put this together we don't trust our government now now that we went through a period to where we did trust our government but it wasn't during the founding era the founding era all of the founders were like don't trust the government we gave this to you and every nobody trusted even the even government officials said it's getting out of control it's getting too big why just ask for extra money so we could have some wood to put into the potbelly stove to keep the chamber of Congress warm. They all feared it was going to get out of control because they all came out of a kind of totalitarianism with the king.
So what they put together is checks and balances. And you've heard this a million times, three forms of government, checks and balances.
But let me give this to you so you can explain this to your children or to your friends that don't understand this. There are several things the founders were afraid of.
One, big states are going to gobble up and take all the power from the little states, and they will just, they'll bully everyone around. The one they were worried about most was uh New York.
New York was a big state. And Delaware was like, we're a state there.
Nobody's going to listen to us. And sadly, Delaware, nobody listens to you now just because you deserve it.
But I shouldn't have Biden to the rest of the country. Yeah, if you would have done that, we would have been fine.
Anyway, so what they did is they came up with the Electoral College.
And everybody wants to now get rid of it.
And I want you to see the progressive game plan here on the Constitution.
Right now, they're trying to get rid of the Electoral College.
What was that for?
That was a check on the power of the big states like California, even Texas and New York. We have to have that so the little states don't have to live like like you.
Everybody wants to live in California or New York and New York doesn't have to live like the way Texas wants everybody to live. They want to take that check and balance out.
They've done it before, and you'll see here in a second. So we have the House of Representatives based on census, so everybody gets representative checks, and the Electoral College.
So that was to balance that concern out. Then when they made Congress, they gave congressmen a two-year term.
I mean, I can't even imagine how fast that goes. It must be like you're running for election all the time.
It's just two years? Really? Why? Because they put the purse strings. This is why every law that involves any kind of money must start in Congress because they're the closest to you.
They're the fastest to get rid of. Every two years, they start doing stuff that you don't like.
You can vote them out. No other office has that every two years.
And that's because they have the checkbook. If they start start writing bad checks if they start moving the country in the wrong way you are the check on them okay all these things with money has to start with them because they're the closest to you and the fastest way to get somebody out legally now also a check on their out-of-control ways would be the Senate.
So let's say Congress starts to act in a way that is all about the federal government and has nothing to do with the states. The Senate is supposed to be representatives from each state that are not elected.
Instead, they are appointed by each state. So the legislature and the governor get together and say, we want this guy to be our Senate representative.
Why did they do that? Because they were afraid of the federal government getting so big and powerful that the Congress would just start thinking, we're a federal agency. We're here to make sure we can grow the size of government.
We can do all these things. And they knew that if Congress got out of control that way, they had to have the states there that only Chuck Schumer should only care about New York, not the rest, just New York.
He's fighting for what New York wants. But right now, because the progressives changed this around the turn of the century, what happened? Chuck Schumer, that's now a national election.
Why? Shouldn't be. It shouldn't even be an election according to Congress.
I'm sorry, according to the Constitution. But the progressives passed an amendment to abolish that check.
Notice the check on the states eating each other or the big states eating the small states that they want to take that out. They're working on that now.
The next one that balanced the states versus the federal, they want to take that one out, and they did take that one out. So the Senate acts as a guard against an out-of-control government just growing bigger and bigger and bigger.
The next one. What happens if the Senate colludes with the House against the Constitution? Well, now that you have taken away that, you know, that check and balance of the Senate, it could happen.
So what happens then? The veto power. That's why veto is so important.
The administration can veto it. But that veto is only supposed to be if the government thinks, or I'm sorry, if the president thinks this is unconstitutional.
Because remember, they all raise their hand not to say, I'm going to make sure we're making jobs. I'm going to make sure that we've got everybody equal.
No, they raise their hand to say, I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. So the number one job of each of them is to make sure they're guarding their own house and their own power to be a check and balance against the other branches of government.
So now if you have an administration that just starts to go out of control and begins to make its own laws and rule as a dictator because he can, which is what the kind of administration we have had now since, well, really since FDR. But these the administration is way out of control and way out of balance.
It's why half the country fears the president, no matter who it is. half the country fears that guy.
He's going to come, he's going to shut me down, he could put me in jail. Because the administration has too much power.
How did that happen? Because Congress, again, has the check on the administrative power. It is the check that says, you know what, we're not going to fund that.
We're not going to fund them anymore. You know, if you're going to use the ATF that way or the FBI,
no funding for you. Get it back in line or we cut it off.
That's a big power move. The other thing is,
don't you make a rule? What are you doing making rules? We pass laws here. You can't just go and
make up your own rules. It all has to come through Congress.
Well, the founders didn't realize
Thank you. rule.
What are you doing making rules? We pass laws here. You can't just go and make up your own rules.
It all has to come through Congress. Well, the founders didn't realize that Congress would no longer be greedy about power.
They would care about not being blamed for stuff more than their power. So Congress gave that power up to the administrative state.
that's why this is all out of balance. They can cut off the money or change the laws, make sure that can't happen.
The Reigns Act comes to mind. The founders knew that people hoard power, but now they're not, and that's why we're out of balance.
More in just a second. If you ever wake up in the morning and feel like your body's stage a sit-in before the day even gets going, by the time you get to the end of the day, your body is screaming for mercy.
Inflammation. Inflammation can be a nasty, nasty opponent.
It's doing everything it can to keep you sick and to keep you in pain. There's a million things out on the market to fight it.
I know because I've taken most of them and none of them have ever really worked for me. Either they wouldn't get rid of the pain at all or I'd wake up the next day just feeling woozy.
Relief factor is different. At least it is for me.
70% of the people feel like I do. They take it for three weeks and they realize the difference it's making.
And then you end up taking it every day. It's a combination of various anti-inflammatory herbs and everything else.
It's all natural. And it was developed by doctors to help get out of pain.

Station ID. Okay, so the founders knew that all of these things could get out of control uh and the administrative state in the end could make congress irrelevant if the administrative state just gets too much so you the check on the administrative state was greedy congress, but that has failed because the progressives changed it.
The administration gets out of control. Congress can impeach.
Senate holds the trial and votes. That's the check.
Now, if Congress gets out of control and starts just wielding that weapon, the check on them is the president has a bully pulpit. He can go right directly to the people.
If Congress gets out of control, the check on Congress is the people vote every two years. Also, you can impeach Congress and the and the state of the Senate that was supposed to be run by the individual states.
They can hold the hearing and impeach. Senate gets out of control.
Well, it can't originally because its power comes from each state. But if it did, you can impeach and and get rid of those senators that are out of control.
Also, the president could veto all of the power and all the things that were coming out of the Senate. The final check is the Supreme Court.
Now, this is the weakest of all of them. One judge, one judge can be impeached.
Okay. In fact, the Constitution says, and read the Federalist Papers, it also says that the federal government can eliminate and abolish all federal judges.
It can close the courts. Congress has to do it, but they can close all the federal courts, just not the Supreme Court.
And the Supreme Court is the one that is the final check on Congress and the president, but they don't have the power of enforcement. That's why it's the weakest one.
Here's the thing, our entire system is out of whack.
Don't try to change things. Just try to go back to the Constitution.
Let the rule of law, constitutional law, be the supreme law. Not the ones we make up.
This is Glenn Beck. The stirring words of Patrick Henry still ring true through the many, many years that have passed since they were first spoken.
Yesterday was the 250th anniversary of the Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death speech. The cry of the patriot for freedom.
Sometimes it's felt, rarely, but it's felt when you choose a company you want to do business with because that company is trying to do the right thing for the country. And I think this is really important.
We face companies that are against our values all the time. Let me tell you about a company that I am really proud to partner with, one that takes freedom and the values that go along with it very seriously.
That company is Patriot Mobile. It's a Christian-owned company with an awesome cell phone coverage plan, great U.S.-based customer service, and on top of that, they're fighting every day to uphold the rights and the values that helped build this nation 250 years ago.
Every call you make, every text you send when you're on Patriot Mobile helps to fund the causes that you believe in.

You know, we're just talking about the balance of power and how our constitution is set up and how important the press is because they say that's the fourth branch of government when all else fails the real important ones the ones who set up our government is we the people and we can only we can only be a check on our government if we are informed and educated.
But our system of media does not inform or educate you. It miseducates you and makes you ill-informed because it gives you disinformation.
This is one of the things that we have been working on for years and years and years to make sure that that doesn't happen and try to get more and more people to listen and participate
so they can start to see what's really true. Well, if the media is in on all of the cover-ups, then you have a really hard time, especially if the government is keeping secrets.
So last week, the JFK files started to be released. Finally.
Okay. What happened? Not just on November 22nd of 1963.
What happened in the months prior to that? What happened? Where were all the players? What did they run into Oswald? Did they have him on the radar? We know a lot of this stuff, but there's a lot of new stuff that has also come in and we would not have been able to really go through all of these in a week had we not used AI. And we are very vigilant on AI.
We don't let it hallucinate. We double and triple check everything because it's lazy and it hallucinates.
So we were really, really careful on how we used it. But it gave us some things that we may not have found in the records had it just been my team.
It would have taken us a lot longer. So tomorrow on our Wednesday night special, I'm going to bring you everything that we found in the files that we think are important.
And then we ran scenarios through AI. And we asked AI, with all of the information passed, including the Warren Commission, everything that has just been released, who likely is the killer? And he gave us five groups or people.
And number one is, with a very high rating, Lee Harvey Oswald. I happen to believe that's true.
Number two, however, is fascinating. And you will see, we will lay out the case and show that to you.
We also, I went up, you know, last week I went to a range just right here by the studios and I was shooting the exact sister of Lee Harvey Oswald's gun. and it had been modified by him.
You know, the scope was a Japanese scope. The gun was a cheap gun that Greece used in World War II.
They ran out of ammunition in Greece. The gun was barely used.
Then they ran out of ammunition. And so the CIA actually went to the Defense Department and said, we have to order this special ammunition for this gun.
They made all kinds of rounds and shipped them over to Greece so they could use the ammunition. Well, they didn't use most of the ammunition, so it sat in warehouses in Greece.
And then the CIA and the Pentagon brought it back to the United States. Then how Oswald got it, I mean, it was for sale, but it was so specific, and it's just a weird story.
When you hear the whole story, you're like, hmm, that's odd. It's just conspiracy.
And I'm not saying there is anything on the gun or the bullets, but conspiracy writes itself the way this thing happened. I took the gun out last week with it's $40 around because it's historic ammunition.
And we fired it, I think, five times. Three were just to adjust the sights on it to make sure it was zeroed.
And then I was shooting stationary targets. Can that distance, how hard is it with this crappy, crappy gun and this really crappy sight? It's almost like a BB gun.
You know the fake sites that you get on your kids where it's not really magnifying anything and it's really bad. It's almost that bad of a scope.
And I hit the targets we were trying, then the gun jams. Then over the weekend, I went up to another range in Oklahoma that would drag a car behind a big tractor, you know, on a chain that was 60 feet long.
So they were out of out of the shot. And we put balloons in the back of this vehicle.
And my job, we had it all marked out exactly the same angles. I was supposed to go
up higher on this lift. I was up probably two stories, was supposed to go up six, but it got so windy, we just stopped because it was really dangerous.
So I'm only up two stories. But But everybody said it would be difficult.
And I was there for eight hours on Sunday doing this and filming this.
What did we learn?
Could he have made that shot?
How hard was that shot?
Because I'm not a I'm not a sniper.
How hard was it?
And what did we learn afterwards? You're going to see all of this on the Wednesday night special tomorrow night at 9. It's really going to be good.
You're not a sniper, but you're a good shot. I'm a good shot, but I don't rifle shoot usually.
I use my shotgun a lot. I use my pistol a lot.
I'm very good at that. I don't, I don't shoot a rifle with a scope hardly, hardly ever.
Uh, but I am a good shot. Um, how good of a shot? Well, you'll find, you'll find out.
Cause you know, I walk on and I'm like, you know, I'm a pretty good shot. And, uh, one of the guys that was there is a friend of ours who is a, who shot for Beretta professionally for a long time.
And he's like, guys, we're going to be here all day. Is it a hard shot? Could I do it? I kind of learned a lesson yesterday.
How important is it that we figure this out? I mean, we've been talking about this for half a century. So that's a really great question.
I don't know if you saw in the show prep today. Let me see if I can find it.
Ben Shapiro wrote an article about does it really matter who shot JFK? Yes and no. The question should be.
Is this the most is finding out who shot JFK the most pressing pressing issue that we have? No, I don't think so. But it's foundational to everything else we're doing.
And you'll see tomorrow the evidence that has been released so far, the ones that we have found, it is really important that it is understood because if the government was out of control back then and nobody knew it and nobody stopped it, what are they doing today? This is the possible beginning of a deep state in the modern era that we understand. What is the military industrial, the intelligence industrial, educational industrial complex doing?
What were they doing back then?
And so it's important that we restore the trust as much as we can.
I don't think tomorrow's special is going to make you,
it's not going to restore the trust of the agencies involved in all of this.
But the first thing to do is to actually look at the infection. So that's important.
Not necessarily who killed him, but what happened, what really happened, and was our government involved at all? Do you think the trust can be restored? Is that a project that is even achievable? So
yes
and no. Our founders didn't trust
the government.
They wanted to, but they
all talked about don't trust
the government. It's people.
So can you
trust people
with a lot of power and money and influence and control? No, never, nor should you. However, we can trust the checks and balances, and those are all out of whack.
That's what we have to put our trust back into. Our media is not acting as a third branch.
It has no check check or balance. It's part of the coverup.
It's part of the deep state. So we've lost trust in that, that can be repaired.
It'll take a while, but that could be repaired. Do we trust that there is sis, there are systems in place that can expose and prosecute.
Right now, no. But Pam Bondi and Kash Patel could restore those institutions back to some credibility and make sure the bad guys, no matter left or right, big or small, all go to jail and pay the same price.
That's what has to be restored. Not trust in government.
Trust in the checks and the balances. And we should be working toward those things at least, right? Like as far as trust is government.
I don't want a society that just blindly trusts government. That's North Korea.
Well, no. At least in public.
Yeah, in public, yeah. yeah in this is i think we're the worst because we have blindly trusted it we blindly trusted the media to be on our side oh they're going to tell us the truth oh they wouldn't do that i've seen my government do things in real time that i never believed could happen in america i mean covid afghanistan all of the things yeah i mean two great Right.
All of the things that have happened in the last 25 years, I never thought could happen here in America. And that's really bad because we blindly trusted our government.
You know what? They like the country. They like, you know, they're just like us.
I mean, these guys are out of control and they're in their weasels but they all are but no no uh that's why you throw them out of office when they start to become weasels you get rid of them otherwise they have babies and you're overrun with weasels and that's what's happened kind of what happened in gremlins for example you know you get them wet and then all of a sudden
there's more of them then you feed them after midnight and the whole thing turns into a really terrible terrible situation and then they go to the pool when one of them jumps in the pool then you're really in danger i have to tell you this is no it's a good example of why this show is called the Glenn Beck program.
Listen,
I'm sure you're not going to believe
I'm sure you're not going to believe me, especially if you've seen me when I say I'm not a Navy SEAL. I'm not.

I know I look it. I know I look it.
I may have the physical prowess and good looks, but I can't disarm a guy from 30 feet or three inches. Can't really can't really do it.
You know what I can do? I can pull a trigger like nobody's business. So if somebody is attacking me, you know, I could kill that person if I'm armed.
I'm pretty good at that. What if I'm if I'm armed with a gun and it doesn't call for a gun then i'm in trouble my family's in trouble but let me tell you something you can neutralize all situations with the burna launcher byrna.com slash glenn burna.com slash glenn get 10 off your purchase right now at burna.com now the burna launcher it shoots kinetic and tear gas rounds uh and it'll go up to 60 feet and and hurt and that's a kinetic round you do it at 60 feet and it's tear gas it will immobilize that person and anywhere anyone within a six foot radius of that for about 40 minutes.

They don't really care't really care about your mortgage and your bills and, you know, that it's high. And, gee, I'm having a hard time.

It is Tuesday, right? It's Tuesday. Welcome.
We're glad you're here. There's a lot going on.
I want to take you through a couple of big, big stories that are happening right now. Looks like the U.S.
and Russia, we have wrapped up our negotiations. I want to talk to you about the possibility of a three-front war.
Talking to a friend of mine who kind of is knows, kind of in the know on stuff like this and said, looks like the world is preparing for something that we should be very well aware of. Also, the president has made some moves that I think are really good and important.
60 Minutes did a story over the weekend about, you know, they talked to a drug cartel guy. And he's like, oh, yeah, we can move people and fentanyl across the northern border at any time, which is not helpful for, you know, what Canada is trying to tell us.
We'll have more on that and so much more in just a second. First, it's an underrated time for sports right now.

And everybody's like, oh, no, Canada would never do that. That's not a problem.
OK, it is a problem. It's a border.
It's a problem. And it's porous.
All of them are. We've got to do something about it and ask our friends on our border to to help us.
Well, they're not. 60 Min couldn't believe this was on 60 minutes over the weekend but they had a cartel smuggler on 60 minutes how to how does 60 minutes i mean is that in the phone book where do you where do you find a cartel smuggler but they found one and he went on record uh and he said i'll always find a way to get people illegally across the border um here's a piece of what he said this video was reported in january a group of men who just crossed the border ran to an suv that drove them deeper into new york you'll also see a woman getting out of the car and go north to Canada.
This man told us he coordinated the handoff and took the video.
Can you tell us who you work for?
For the Sinaloa cartel?
He goes by the name Javi and agreed to speak with us only with his camera off.
He said he can't risk his identity being exposed.
How does this work? They tell you where to go? They tell you how many
people you have to bring across each week? Exactly. That's how it goes.
They provide the people. They have more people who are behind all this, looking for customers, finding them, and summoning them to certain locations.
We found Javi through his online ads, which he says TikTok recently took down.
Wow.
Here he is talking about smuggling babies and fentanyl across the border. What's the youngest child you've ever crossed? Three months.
Three months. Yes, babies.
What happens if one of the migrants you're working with doesn't pay?
They cannot go. They're held hostage until they pay up.
Until what?
Until they pay.
Do you work only with humans or do you move drugs also?
Everything.
How much fentanyl do you move across that border?
Lately, it's been quiet.
But for a while there, we were bringing in 30 kilos per month.
Wow.
The drugs come from China?
From China.
The China.
I get more into the U.S., but also it goes from the U.S. to Canada.
And weapons.
Hmm.
Hmm. Interesting, isn't it? So that's what we're dealing with.
And I don't know if you saw the video of the people that, you know, were boarded up on airplanes and sent to, where was it? Not Venezuela, but El Salvador. Did you see that? Trump posted this amazing video.
You guys didn't see this? Oh, we got to look it up and play it. It's this amazing video of the plane arriving in El Salvador and them getting on the plane, getting off the plane, and then, you know, ankle and bracelets on their wrists, walking hunched down into this new prison.
And I got to tell you, that video itself, if I were thinking about coming here, I would immediately go, I'm not going there. If that's what happens to you, I am not going it sent such a strong strong message this is how we treat people who are coming here who are bad guys now this is this is the one that trump is or that the administration is in court now because an activist judge is like you can't just do that you know what why well because you didn't vet them no i tell you what we did We gave them exactly the same kind of just do that.
You know what? Why? Well, because you didn't vet them. No, I tell you what we did.
We gave them exactly the same kind of vetting that the last president gave when he let them all in. None.
Now, these people were on a list. Okay.
It doesn't mean that they were all gang members, but you're here illegally. Bye-bye.
I know that sounds heartless, but I really believe that they all need to go home. All of them need to go home.
And a lot of these people were not just on a list. They were known to be gang members, and a lot of them had committed crimes here in America.
Bye-bye. See ya.
Yeah. I mean, if you, I love that.
I heard some of these people are like, some of these people don't even have criminal records in America. Well, first of all, if they're here illegally to me, they have a, they have a criminal record or they act like this is not a crime.
Well, there's a law. Okay.
And I understand there's some nuance within that law, but like there's a law, you're not supposed to come here. They know they're not supposed to come here.
Many of them had criminal records at their home country and not here. Again, is that does that mean that we don't that we're going to leave them here? No, because they didn't commit a crime that we know of yet here.
I mean, that the point is to prevent those. Right.
Yeah. I mean, I it's possible, right, that they made a mistake.
There are some claims that a couple of these people should not have been going to prison. And even if they should be deported to their home country, if they didn't commit a major crime, they don't necessarily need to go to the El Salvadorian lockup.
All that being said, find those problems, solve those problems, right? I mean, I like what Elon Musk said about this in the White House a couple weeks ago when he was asked about it. And they said like, hey, you, and this has happened with Doge.
Hey, you posted you saved $1.9 billion and actually that had been canceled in the previous administration. And he said, yeah, we're not going to get everything right.
Like when we notice one of those things, we're going to fix it and we'll get it fixed right away. Like that is actually a normal human way of dealing with an issue like that.
And I think it's so weird in Washington to hear it. But like that's OK.
Now, if you happen to be the person who was sent to this prison, you're not going to like it very much. And you shouldn't have been here in the first place.
But you shouldn't. That's the point.
Like there is an initial thing that puts you into this bucket. If you commit a crime by crossing into this country, which we have warned you not to participate in.
If you do that, there are consequences to it. And, you know, if you're wrongly sent to this prison, they should absolutely correct those mistakes.
Well, I have to tell you, I mean, every message he is sending is the exact opposite message that biden was sending yeah he's sending right now even if what biden was sending is even if you're a terrorist even if you're a murderer we're not really going to check so come on in you're fine now you might be a good person you might be uh you know a dad of 16 whatever and you're just coming in but no we don't know but no we we don't know so don't come leave leave right now leave on your own he he is begging people to self-deport and when you see the video i gotta play for you it is amazing when you see this video it is i watched it i was oh, we have it? Yeah, go ahead and play this. Watch this.
Shows the airplane. Now, here they come down the stairs.
And look how they're all marched in a line. And they're all being marched right into this maximum security prison compound.
And no, thank you. Doesn't look great.
Does not look great. Look at that.
No, thank you. And this is Bukele who actually tweeted this to the president of El Salvador.
Yeah. I mean, you are not.
Shaving heads here. Yeah.
If you are thinking about coming to the country or you're here illegally, would you not be packing up everything right now and going? Yeah, I'm not going to.
Why mess with it? Right. It's and it's the messaging, you know, as much as we've always been very, very difficult or tough on illegal immigrants.
It's true. There's always been a part of me that that does acknowledge the fact that we treat and have for decades treated illegal immigration like kind of like it's a speeding ticket right like you know you shouldn't do it correct but we're not really going to do much about it and if i were in a situation like some horrible country you know everything was overrun we were all poor would i risk a speeding ticket yeah maybe you know i mean i like i i this is going to surprise people occasionally i drift a couple of miles an hour over that speed limit here in the united states um that's off the record uh for everyone anyone listening but like yeah you know occasionally that happens and i do it for almost no gain i do it because I want to get home 13 seconds faster.
If you were if your entire family was. You got all that recorded, right? OK, go ahead.
Was devastated. Yeah.
You and the United States government was constantly sending the signal. Sure, it's kind of like breaking the rules, but don't worry about it.
We got sanctuary cities here for you. The president was in a debate.
he just won joe biden and he told you what should we do with illegal immigrants we should welcome them that's the real policy like i could it it almost takes away a good chunk of the responsibility of the illegal immigrant is bad that's how bad our policy has been the policy is different now the policy has been communicated quite clearly to anyone who would consider coming here yeah or is here illegally yeah get out get out get out and he's doing all of this to not have to round people up he's starting with the worst of the worst and showing the examples of what is happening to them to say to you please make the right decision decision. Leave on your own.
We don't want to round you and your family up. We don't want you to go through this.
You have an opportunity. In fact, if you let us know, we're going to give you a special pass that means you could come back to the country and apply for citizenship.
Not ahead of the line, but you can. If we catch you here and you haven't self-deported and you're totally a law-abiding citizen, you're never coming back.
You're on a list. You're never allowed to come back.
Okay? He's sending these messages and telling people, I think, with compassion, hey, we might come for you one day. You really should leave now.
We don't want to make this an ugly thing. You came in the wrong way.
Sure, we encouraged it, whatever, but not anymore. And this has to be done or we turn into Europe.
Why is no one looking at what's happening to Europe and concerned? I was talking to a friend last night, kind of in the circle of the know. And he said, I think the world is preparing for a three-front war.
And I was like, wait, that doesn't sound good. He said, look at the actions.
Look at what's happening around the world right now. He said it could go horribly wrong with Europe and it appears that there are players on all sides that want to have a war in Europe.
You can make your own decisions on if that's true and why. But also in the Middle East, everybody is preparing for war and preparing for a possible war with Iran.
And then China is preparing for war.
And if there is a huge war in the Middle East, then we're brought into it.
And a war in Europe, and we're brought into it.
You don't think the third leg would stand up and take Taiwan? They'd take it in a heartbeat. Because we would not be able to fight a three-theater war.
We just are not prepared for it. And the one in Europe, if we're fighting in Europe, we're approaching a place to where that could be a hundred year war
because that'll all be about ideology. And we're not talking the Russians.
We're talking about the Islamic state. You know, they're all these Islamists have been brought in and then they change and then they have no-go zones and then they set up Sharia courts.
Do you think that's going to stop it sometime, France, Germany, Holland, Sweden? Do you really think all of a sudden they're going to go, but that's enough. We're not going to go past this.
We're going to have our Sharia courts, but we respect you Lutherans over here. Of course not.
Of course not. they have to take care of their own countries and the population that has been moving in that is destroying their countries and making them an enemy of the freedoms of mankind.
I don't want to deal with it. They need to.
But we're in the same boat. We must protect the homeland.
We'll never be able to save anyone if we don't save ourselves first. If we don't know who's here, we don't control the crime in our own cities, we don't have cheap and effective energy, we don't have an educated, not miseducated, but an educated population, a hardworking population, somebody that a population that understands its own country, its own history, and its own values.
You don't survive. You don't survive.
So we have a very clear job that we have to do. And I think Donald Trump is doing a good job of it so far.
But the rest of it is up to us.
But we must act.
I mean, I really think that God does what we can't do.
I couldn't have stopped that bullet.
Couldn't have done it.
Nobody could have stopped that bullet.
God stopped that bullet from hitting him.
I've never seen anything like that.
If that wasn't a clear, almost Moses parting the Red Sea style miracle, I don't know if I've ever seen one then. That was a miracle.
But God does the things we can't do. We now have to do the things that we have to do.
And one of those things is if you want the government to be less powerful, we have to stop giving it power. If you want the government to do less, we have to take on the responsibility to do more in our own communities, neighborhoods, and family.
That's the way we fix this thing. But the time to fix it is right now.
We may only have another three years, and who knows what happens in three years? Let's make sure we're doing all the hard work ourselves right now. No, I think, and I've always thought that it's times of crisis where you finally get to see what people are truly made of.
You know, somebody's under pressure and they start to just go crazy. You know, that's their true nature.
Now, sometimes, you know, I've exploded because I'm under pressure and, you know, but you immediately go back and apologize. You immediately go back and go, I'm sorry, that wasn't me.
Well, that's not what's happening with the Gazans when they're under pressure. They haven't apologized, nothing.
Israel, on the other hand, when they're faced with unbelievable challenges and danger, what's happened in the last year and a half? Look at what's happened. Look at what they've done.
They soldier on. They buck up.
They stand up. And they don't hate.
That is a good group of people. I don't necessarily agree with everything Israel does.
I don't agree with their policies, etc., etc. I don't want to fight their wars, but they have a right to exist, and I want to stand with them in that right.
I want to help bring peace and comfort to the people of Israel. I am proud to sponsor or partner with our sponsor, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
They are bringing aid right now, like hot meals, bomb shelters, blankets, clothes, whatever they need from our Christian brothers and sisters here to our Jewish brothers and sisters there. Some causes are good causes.
This is a fantastic cause. Give a gift to bless Israel and our people by visiting supportifcj.org.

Did you hear the judge that yesterday say the Venezuelans were treated so horribly that even the Nazis got better treatment? Yeah, and his argument was basically that they had some sort of due process. No, no, not the Nazis.
The Nazis were, most of them were shot on sight or they were taken to America where we gave them all kinds of gifts. Where they became scientific heroes.
Yes, exactly right. Better living through German science.
Okay, that's a problem. But a lot of them were, I mean, they rounded up, and yes, they
were given a due process, but
some of them were shot on sight.
Yeah, in war, for sure. It's war.
It's war. After the war,
but
you know,
going to Venezuela
is not the same as
being hung after a tribunal. I don't know if you know this.
It's not the same. Go home.
This is Glenn Beck. Have you ever read the ingredients on the list of your dog's bag of kibble food? I mean, half of it sounds like something out of a chemistry set.
The other half is, well, read charcoal briquette over and over and over again. Kibble food is more baked than a California hippie on a road trip to Colorado.
It can have a long shelf life. Unfortunately, hippies do.
Oh, we're talking about kibble food, but it doesn't give you a lot of nutrition. Rough greens is the answer.
It's not dog food. It's a supplement that you sprinkle on the food.
And just like that, you go from a bowl full of essentially nothing to a meal your dog is going to love. He's going to love eating it.
He'll rush to his bowl and you will watch him feel better and just be more active.
Whatever you're feeding your dog, now is the time to make it healthier and tastier with a scoop of rough greens.

Stu, what is the, in sports, what, there's somebody that has, I think it's baseball, has an asterisk after their record. The famous one is Roger Maris because he hit his 61st home run.
That's right, which was more than Babe Ruth, right? Babe Ruth had 60, but Maris did it in 162 games instead of 154. So for a long time in the official record book, there was an asterisk after that, hey, he had eight more games.
That's why he was able to do this. They did take that away eventually.
And obviously that record has been broken since several times. But they did take this asterisk away.
I think they should put an asterisk on Babe Ruth. It just says, the guy couldn't run.
He ate hot dogs and drank beer and he was a fat guy. And yet yet look at him huh i mean arguably the greatest baseball player of all time i know and look at him that's an american hero right there now they're doing steroids and everything else and you're like oh you beat the fat guy's record big deal that's a fair point yeah uh the reason why i bring this up is because uh there is uh Aidan Gallagher, who is an 11th grade sprinter from McDaniel High School in Portland, Oregon.
You know where this is going?
I already do.
Yes.
Yeah.
All right.
So, you know, in the girls 400 meter varsity race, he beat his competition by more than seven seconds.
Wow.
What an achievement.
Yeah.
What an achievement. What do you mean? He.
Hmm. Well, it's a guy.
Okay. Yeah.
A guy. Yeah.
It's guy. What sport was it? It's a, it's a girl's, uh, 200 meter race.
Do you see what, do you see the problem with that? I do. I do.
But apparently nobody else does, but, uh, I see it clearly and glad to see you see it. And everybody in this audience sees the problem.
And so they were cheering him on. And then he gets up on the podium.
And so he's just won a second race. He dominates now in the girls track and field again.
Now, here's my why I brought up the asterisks. I honestly think that there should be some group that comes out and they set up the two boxes or even three boxes.
And you can go and stand over there in that number one thing. That's fine.
We're going to have another award ceremony just off to the side of that one where the girl who came in second place, third place, place we award them first second and third and every one of these records in these communities that are saying that was a girl should have an asterisk you we we're going to have to remember who actually won as a female we're going to it's going to come back gang it's not going to be like this forever. And I just I would like to just start.
I mean, I think that that person should run and, you know, his family or his good friends can go. Oh, my gosh, that is so good.
You go, girl. And everybody else can be like, yeah, we're meeting over here because here's the real first place winner for women.
Yeah, I think that's a great way of looking at it. I think, too, like, you know we've put a lot of focus on gender for the story.
We, what? You know, when we talk about how like, hey, you know, it's wrong. And then we go to the kind of the gender, how crazy it is that people say you couldn't change gender by just wish casting it and all of that.
I think the real story is what it's doing to girls. Yeah.
I think it's fairness. It is.
Right. right and and not only that you've wanted to be a champion your whole life yeah and here comes some guy to take it away from you and everybody is cheering and saying you go girl it's a guy yeah seven seconds ahead if that was a girl that did it they would deserve to be on the front page of every newspaper in America.
It's a guy doing it. That's why it's stupid.
And it's funny because the gender conversation that we've had at large is really important. You can't just change your gender based on this.
We're not going to necessarily accept all of that. But it's separate from this.
And a good example of this is I remember when my son was playing in his he was in a 12 u tournament um you know baseball um he was 12 and he was playing in a tournament it was a good tournament like really high level teams there and one of the teams had a girl on it and now the average pitcher at that time was probably could throw you know mid mid mid upper 50s right like miles per hour some of the fast pitchers would throw maybe mid 60s this girl was throwing like 73 on the gun i mean she was throwing harder than almost every other pitcher in this tournament and there was no uproar about it it wasn't like how dare she switch genders and play no one cares because she was essentially i you know i hate to say it this way but playing up right like she was playing in a tougher arena and no one complained about it because she was good enough to compete at that level and it's the opposite that is the problem there is also something that all guys no matter what you preach they're like you were beat by a girl. There is an element.
They're going to get better.
If there's any way to get better, they're going to get better just by saying, you were beaten by a girl? I will say, not only did this girl pitch very well, I saw her hit a over-the-fence home run in the same game. Wow.
She jacked a home run, And I was like, wow. Now she was a big girl.
She had some, yeah, she could do it. She had some muscles.
I have no problem, honestly. I have no problem with them playing up.
If girls could play at the same level, I think that would be outrageous to watch. It'd be great.
You know, here's a girl who's just like outpowering this guy. Oh, all right.
Go for it. Yeah.
I mean, I'd be a little, I'd be worried in a physical sport, especially as they get older, right? Like, you know, you have a football, if you're going to go out there and play running back, I'd be concerned you're going to get killed. So that is a different story.
But like when it's not a physical physical sport like that they go out and compete i don't think the the american people don't care like they want girls to have a chance to compete with each other in a fair context yes that is not this is not it's not insane it is completely normal and it's the way it's been forever and that's the way it should continue to be that's why sports you, when you say about football, that's why sports, it's different than competitive, you know, first, second and third kind of sports. This is if you can compete, go for it.
Go for it because we want to win. You know, all of us want to win.
And we're playing as a team. When this is happening, you've got a guy competing against girls.
Girls are not as strong as men are. Their bodies are just different.
They're going to be faster. They're going to be stronger.
I mean, I'm not going to be, but most men, and I put myself loosely in that category, most men can do those things. Okay? And I don't want to see a girl beaten by a guy, and I mean physically beaten up by a guy.
I don't want a girl in a boxing ring against a guy, even though he's wearing a dress. No, no thank you.
You know, I'm sorry, but maybe it's chivalry that still lives in some of us older people sexism is what it is yeah it is sexism yeah no it's chivalry yeah it is it's chivalry that's the good word for it yeah they would call it sexism i would call it chivalry yes but it's true i mean because it has the word shiv in it i i say this to people and and especially around here and the main the main culprit for this is is our own hillary kennedy um who uh i can't watch the the female boxing thing no i can't watch it i can't watch the female mma stuff i'm not saying they're not great athletes i'm not saying it's incredible it is incredible competition i can't watch a woman get punched in the face 50 times i have a hard time watching guys with mma yeah i mean it's just like at some point you're like can you can you guys okay can we stop this can we stop this this seems and they're like they both would look at you go what i want to rip him apart right and you'd be like okay that there's something unnatural here going on i'm uncomfortable with women it's horrible yeah i mean i can watch you know i've always been a boxing fan i never got really into mma but i've always been a boxing fan and i i would love watching those big those matches me too but with when with women like there was a match they had it was the tyson uh paul thing that was on netflix yeah yeah and i can't tell you how many people i've talked to and almost everybody says the same thing about about that match. First of all, they say it was a joke and blah, blah, blah.
What I actually was, I thought the whole spectacle was relatively enjoyed. I had a good time watching it.
It was kind of a crazy thing. But everyone says, but what was really good was the match before it.
And it was two women who were beating the hell out of each other to the extent that in the post-game interview, The woman who i think she lost is out there and her eye is like falling out of her head there's just a flap of skin like it her entire forehead just kind of plops open like she just had plastic surgery that went really really wrong and she's just talking there's just blood dripping down her face and like everyone's like that was an incredible match and. And I'm sure it was, if you're into that.
But I just, I don't know what it is. I can't watch a woman, even if it's another woman punching her, get punched in the face over and over again.
I just can't do it. Have you ever seen those Denny's fights where all the women get up and they just start dragging each other by the hair? I can't even watch those.
I see that and I'm like, this is disturbing. What's happening here? I don't know if that makes me a squish or what.
I'm totally with you on that. So I have no desire to see that.
And I think, I don't know, I feel like there's something in being a male and a husband and a father and all that stuff that's kind of built into you that says like violence against women bad violence against men violence against women bad and i don't think that's something we should run away from yeah frankly i think that's a good instinct generally i think it's going to be remembered and maybe i'm wrong i think it'll be remembered just a little bit like i don't know uh the christians and the lions okay yeah you know what mean? It's cool to watch two lions fight. It is.
But when you throw a Christian in there, I don't think they really have anything but a prayer of surviving. Not going to make it.
Not going to make it. I don't know how people found that entertaining.
I'm sure it was entertaining. Was it? Well, I mean, I've watched it in movies many times.
No, you haven't. It was entertaining.
No, you haven't. I mean, you haven't really seen...
No, no. I mean, can you imagine sitting there in the arena and cheering as a human being was ripped apart by a lion? Horrible.
Horrible. It was insane.
There's a certain level of horror movie that gets to the point where I can't... Can't watch it.
I think when I was 20, you know, I'd be like, I know it's fake. But there's a certain level of it now.
They really, I mean, some of these movies, the Terrifier series being one of them. I can't even.
I could never make it through that movie. That sounds horrible.
It's basically just like, it's for horror movie nerds, I would say. And basically every, don't watch, don't watch it.
I'm not going to watch it. I'm advising everyone in the audience don't go watch it no i'm not going to don't no um but it is uh basically every death as gruesome as possible and in a way because horror movie nerds like practical effects and they like to talk about how amazing practical effects are we've had a couple of them who work here and they're always like oh but the practical oh yeah i know but i mean like it is horrifically torturous gruesome stuff many times two women um and i like i i don't stomach for that anymore i don't know i'm just getting old i'm turning into a wuss whatever it is really but i'm there i can't do it i i can't do it i don't want to watch it i there's no reason for me to to bring that into my head to watch it's it makes you terribly uncomfortable it really there's no reason to put it in your head none but what was the name of it again all right back in just a second first there is a dying breed of people that among the fruited plains of america the farmers of america the ranchers of amer.
Since our country began, they were always the backbone of American industry. They kept us fed.
They kept us stronger. They carried with them the value of a hard day's work, a handshake deal.
It's the old way of the cowboy. It's still the way of the farmer and the rancher.
These days, so much of our meat comes from overseas that the American farmer and rancher is beginning to disappear. And that don't think that that's not by design because it is giant meat packing corporations make it even worse for these people, slowly driving these people away from the land and the important job that they do on it.
But good ranchers is working to change that. And they partner with small farmers and ranches all across the country.
They only sell American beef, chicken, pork, and seafood. That means they sell quality meats from America.
They even have healthier seed oil free chicken nuggets for your kids. So when you buy from Good Ranchers, you're helping preserve a way of life, and you're also feeding your family the very best.

This is Glenn Beck. Have you seen Paradise? I think it's on Hulu.
Have you seen that yet? I have not. I've heard good things about it.
Yeah, Tanya and I started watching a few weeks ago. It is really good.
Really, really good. It's one of those that you, you know, I like series now because, you know, in the old days when it was on TV, you could never remember everything that was going on.
you're like, who is that again? But now you can go back and watch.
It's easy to do these storylines that are very complex.
And so it's one of these.
It's almost like a Harlan Coben movie.
I love his stuff.
This series is one of those where you're not really sure what is happening
because it just gets more and more complex as it goes. But it centers around this Secret Service guy who's protecting the president.
And he goes in and he knocks on the president's door in the morning. He opens up the door and the president's lying in a pool of blood, dead.
And he shuts everything down. The Secret Service guy shuts everything down and and tells everybody don't say anything yet we got 30 minutes and once we once we let everybody in we may not ever find the truth so let's yeah and it you don't know what's happening and then the first episode you're realizing they're not even in a real city it's so good it is so good you'll love You'll love it.
There is a genre of television that does that where basically the entire time you're trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Yeah, I don't want to figure out what's going on.
It goes back to Lost, right? It's that type of thing. You're always like, huh? Wait, whoa, what is this? That's the entire reaction for the whole series.
I like it. Have you watched any Harlan Coben stuff? Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, his stuff, I love, Tonya and I love his stuff because he's like that. He'll have all of these characters introduced and you're like, when every character is introduced, you're like, they're the one.
And then somebody else and you're like, no, no, they're the one. And then when you get to the end of it, you're like, none of them were the one.
You know what I mean? And there's such good twists. I'm always skeptical of joining a series in that mode, though, if I don't know it's going to be renewed long enough to actually wrap it up properly.
I know, I know. You know, like, once it's done, it's had five seasons, had an ending, okay, I'll check it out.
But you never know if you're going to get two seasons in, they cancel it,
and then they do the last 20-minute wrap-up where you could tell the series
was going a different direction, and they just filmed something to end it.
You don't want to get involved in a series like that.
