Hello America.
You know we've been fighting every single day.
We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
But to keep this fight going, we need you.
Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
Give us five stars and leave a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
This isn't a podcast.
This is a movement, and you're part of it, a big part of it.
So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.
Rate, review, share.
Together, we'll make a difference.
And thanks for standing with us.
Now let's get to work.
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is
the Glen Beck Program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We have a lot to talk to you about today.
And on the podcast today, J.D.
Vance.
In case you don't know, he's the vice president of some country.
We'll talk to him coming up in just a little while.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
It's Lear Capital.
A pirate, a prepper, and a billionaire walk into a vault.
That's not a joke setup.
It's a cross-section of people who consistently invest in physical gold.
The pirate's in it to hit the treasure.
The prepper wants to survive the apocalypse, and the billionaire, he's tired of trusting the banks and go belly up every Tuesday.
These three very different people have one thing in common.
They know that gold is the standard.
Gold.
The world always returns to gold.
Listen, you don't want to wake up one day and find out that your retirement account just lost 30%
and all you got returned was an email going, whoops, sorry.
Learn from the pirates, the preppers, and the billionaires.
Better yet, learn from history and talk to Lear Capital.
They'll make it easy to add gold or silver to your IRA or retirement savings.
This is so critical.
I bought my first gold through Lear Capital, oh, 25, 30 years ago.
My investment then, I mean, when I first bought gold, I don't even know how much it was.
It was cheap.
Been pretty good.
Been pretty good.
Wish people would have listened to me all these years.
800-957-GOL.
800-957-GOLD.

All right.
Hello, Stu.
How are you?
Wonderful, Glenn.
Really?
Everything is awesome.
Everything is cool when you're part of the team.
Oh, my gosh.
And are we part of the team?
Well,
yesterday,
things went a little nuts in Washington.
There were some unhinged leftists.
Now,
that's a little redundant.
But some unhinged leftists
were at the RFK hearing where he's talking to the House Appropriations Committee
and some crazy protester erupted, you know, in just what they do.
And if you're watching the Blaze, I want you to watch this or listen to it if you're on radio.
Here we go.
The witness will suspend.
The committee will come to order.
Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from peer reviews.
Members of the audience
are reminded: disruptions will not be tolerated.
I guess they were saying RFK lies and people die.
I don't.
Maybe it was about Hamas.
Maybe it was about
too many umbrellas.
I don't know.
It was.
It was too many umbrellas.
Too many umbrellas.
Far too many umbrellas in this country for sun and for rain.
I mean, what is it?
It's everything.
I'm with them, frankly.
Too many.
So we have JFK or RFK.
Now,
did you see, if you were watching it, did you see his reaction?
Watch again, just the very beginning of it.
Stop.
He looks terrible.
He looks like he's about to get shot.
Yeah.
He's as a Kennedy.
Kennedy.
Yeah, you can see see that.
You don't do that to a Kennedy.
Now, here's what's crazy.
These are radical leftists.
Stu,
when did people stop considering his radical leftist
lifetime record?
I don't know.
I'm
as perplexed as anybody on this one.
He has been a radical leftist for a very long time.
I mean, I would think that there's probably examples of other hearings back in the day where people were doing that type of protest on his behalf.
Yeah.
Right.
Not maybe not that he asked for it, but like thinking that they're aligned with him, certainly on climate issues.
And now all of a sudden,
I guess you get involved with Donald Trump and everybody turns.
Yeah.
So let me go back to the testimony.
Cut one, please.
So do you disagree with the cuts that are being proposed for Medicaid right now?
Oh, the cuts to, you know, this is a, I don't know if you understand this or whether you're just mouthing, you know, the Democratic talking boys.
The cuts to Medicaid are for fraud, waste, and abuse.
And I'll tell you what that means.
It means that because of Doge, we were able to determine, and it's about 8 million people who would be affected.
Because of Doge, we were able to determine that there are a million people who are claiming Medicaid from multiple states.
That's illegal.
It's theft.
You're not allowed to do that.
There are another million people who are collecting both under Obamacare.
And the Secretary, that has nothing to do with the budget that you have.
These are the only cuts that are being made.
These are the only cuts that are being made to Medicaid.
That's not true.
Yes, it is.
There are another million illegal aliens.
We announced a law yesterday, yesterday, a rule yesterday, we're not going to pay illegal aliens anymore.
And guess what Gavin Newsom did this morning?
He said, we're going to take all the illegal aliens off the California Medicaid rolls because the feds aren't paying for them anymore.
So the compassion and secretary, let me let me focus you.
It's incredible how no one is actually listening to facts anymore.
I mean, it's one thing when you're not listening to facts, you know, from Donald Trump or Joe Biden, okay?
We can argue about facts all day, and we, you know,
whatever.
This is RFK
arguing with Democrats about Medicaid fraud abuse.
And he's saying, we're just taking people off that are illegally using Medicaid.
Who is against this?
Honestly, again, who is against this?
Now, Kevin Newsom is putting everybody on California
aid.
Excuse me, California?
How are you going to afford afford that?
Every taxpayer, left, right,
center, every taxpayer in California should be raising holy hell.
Will they?
No.
No, they won't.
They won't.
How are you going to pay for that?
Your state is going to collapse economically.
Now, you know why the Democrats are not worried about that?
It's because that's part of the plan.
That is Cloud and Piven.
Collapse and overwhelm and collapse the system.
And they've already done it.
They did it in New York City back in the 70s.
And New York City collapsed.
Now they're doing it to states.
And it's going to happen the same way.
And I'll be damned if I am going to send my taxpayer dollars to California because you didn't have the balls or the brains to stand up.
Not doing it.
I'm not doing it.
Hey, dummy.
Only one of us is going to be right in the end about your financial collapse.
And everybody who can put two plus two equals four down on a table, not seven, even if you show me your work, but four.
This is simple math.
You are going to collapse.
Why am I going to pay for it?
You come to the United States of America and you ask us to bail you out.
And anybody in Congress that is from my state,
I will make it my mission
to put you out on the street.
I will make it my mission if you vote to bail California out.
Oh, but we have to have California.
Do we?
Do we?
Do we really?
Do we?
Honestly,
I didn't sign up for a suicide pack.
I moved to Texas for a reason.
I didn't want to be part of the suicide.
Well, no, they're committing suicide, so we all have to.
What kind of cult are you in?
My gosh.
And
look what the Democrats are doing.
Look at what the left is doing.
The left is becoming so incredibly radical.
You had in Newark, You had,
what was her name?
The Congresswoman.
Oh, I wrote it it down congresswoman shoot something uh la manica macgyver mcguy this week on macyver
we assault ice agents in newark new jersey so macyver went out congresswoman goes out and it's pretty clear assaults these officers and tries to storm in as part of oversight.
That wasn't oversight.
That was an oversight.
And you know what it really was?
A setup.
Because I want you to play the AOC comment from a couple of days ago where she commented on this.
Because Holman says, no, in fact, plague Holman first.
No one's above the law.
Listen to this.
Do you want the congresswoman who was caught on camera assaulting ICE agents to be arrested for that?
If you assault an officer, absolutely.
No one's above the law.
These men are the one who put their lives online every day.
We should be supporting them, not assaulting them.
Especially in a facility like that, that carrying some of the worst of the worst, you can't lose control of the facility.
And when you cause
what they cause up there,
it causes the safety and security of that facility to fall.
And that's not what they're trying.
And I said from day one,
you can
not support us.
You can support Sanctuary City.
Shame on you.
But you have that right.
But don't cross that line and you will ask for criminal prosecution.
Okay, so
the government, you know, now the government, that's Sane at least, is saying, look, I don't care who you are, left, right, pink, purple, black, white, doesn't matter.
You assault a police officer, you're going to jail.
I mean, that's just something I've always grown up with.
What about January 6th, Beck?
Yeah, January 6th, you're like, most people go to jail.
Yeah, I'm going to have another conversation with you about the rule of law and due process, but that's for a different time.
Now, what are they doing?
Now AOC comes out with this warning.
And now what DHS is trying to say, again, they're using public intimidation because they know that they cannot come for us all.
They know that
they cannot come for us all.
And recently what they said is that DHS is allegedly looking into arresting members of Congress.
who are showing up for their legal and constitutional obligation to conduct oversight.
If anyone's breaking the law in this situation, it's not members of Congress.
It's the Department of Homeland Security.
It's people like Tom Homan and Secretary Christy Noam.
You lay a finger on someone, on Representative Bonnie Watson-Coleman,
on Representative, or any of the representatives that were there, you lay a finger on them, we are going to have a problem because the people who are breaking the law are the people who are not abiding by it.
And it is enshrined in the law that members of Congress who show up to ICE and CBP facilities are required to be granted access, legally required to be granted access.
And they legally cannot be inhibited from accessing these facilities to conduct their constitutional obligation to investigate and conduct oversight.
So if Christy Noam wants to break the law, that's on her.
Okay.
How can anybody take this person seriously?
I know.
They just did a poll.
Who's the face of the Democratic Party?
Her.
She was number one.
I know.
This complete moron bartender from five years ago is the face of the party now.
Yeah, what, what?
Which is, I mean, perfectly
just.
It's reasonable.
If you've been watching the Democratic Party, it's reasonable that she would be the leader now.
They're socialist, they're stupid, they're nothing but activist, they're nothing but
they're nothing but chosen
puppets for I don't know who's pulling all the strings of the Democratic Party, but that's what she is.
She's just a little puppet.
She's just a little chosen puppet.
Hey, you know what, bartender?
We can make you a star.
And we have that all backed up.
We did a show on her early on, how she was selected, how she was elected.
I mean, she was selected.
She's a little puppet.
So, you know, it makes total sense that she is the face of the Democratic Party.
But what's happening here?
What's happening?
DHS,
the Hamas,
the
riots now of everybody standing up and saying,
you know,
you can't
export illegal aliens.
You can't send them back home.
The riots that are just itching to start.
Now we have, what's his name?
The failed vice presidential candidate, little short
Elmer Fudd Hunter guy.
Oh, gosh.
What was his name?
The guy
in.
Wolf.
No, Tom.
No.
Anyway, you know him.
Oh, Tim Waltz.
Tim Waltz.
Oh,
you sure he was the one who ran?
or it's i think so okay all right i'm not sure anymore but uh he's now come out and said you know the government's gonna release uh um
derek chauvin
no there there's no there's no evidence of that there's none donald trump has said no we're not doing that but what are they doing They're itching for a race riot.
They're setting something up.
I'll explain some more in just a second.
First, let me tell you about American financing.
Adulting is hard.
You're juggling kids, you're feeding pets, you're working two jobs, you're making meal plans, you're melting down over grocery costs, you know, and participating in a daily group tax thread that just will not die.
You're swamped, like all the time.
Now we add into the mix of having to worry about and deal with, you know, piled up high interest card, credit card debt, mortgage rate you got stuck with back in the dark ages, it seems, and student loans that look suspiciously like a ransom note.
Turns out, adulting, it's a crap.
But here's the good news.
American Financing can help you with all the debt.
They are mortgage experts who actually work for you, not the bank.
They'll show you how to roll all that high interest debt into a new home loan that could save you hundreds every month.
There's no commission, no sales pitch, just a straightforward way to take control of your finances before they take control of you.
It takes 10 minutes to get started and it's all over the phone.
You don't even have to put your pants on.
Okay.
I mean, how easy is that?
They might be more comfortable.
Don't tell them you're not wearing pants.
That might make them money.
Anyway, it's American Financing, 800-906-2440.
It's 800-906-2440.
It's AmericanFinancing.net.

10 seconds station ID.
Welcome to the program.
I'm going to get into more of what is happening here in just a minute.
And J.D.
Vance is going to be our guest here in about an hour.
So you don't want to miss that.
He may be the face of the Republican Party someday soon.
I'd be proud of that.
I'd be happy with that.
You think it's better than the dumbest dumbest lady from your Zumba class being the face of the Democratic Party?
Because that's basically what they have going on right now.
I'm fascinated by that.
Like, I, you know,
in this poll, it was like AOC, Bernie Sanders, Jasmine Crockett.
Like, these are all people you'd be embarrassed to be friends with, let alone be the face of your ideological movement.
That's what they have.
How many people were they serving?
Do you know?
I mean,
was it a good poll?
I think it was.
Yeah.
So they're talking to people all over the country.
And so Democrats in Iowa are like, you know who I really like?
That Crockett woman in AOC.
I mean, I think they both have it going on.
Can I get a little Elon Omar on the side?
Is there any Karl Marx?
Is there any,
anybody see Karl Marx around?
Can we put him on the list?
That's what regular voters are saying on the Democratic Party?
I mean, the top three, I believe the number one answer tied with AOC was no one.
Legitimately, no one.
But
now that makes sense to me.
That makes sense that the average Democrat is going,
no one.
Not the average.
I mean, that was the, it was 26%, I believe.
AOC was also 26%.
But who's actually,
who's actually picking up a phone and going, are you a Democrat?
Stop making excuses for them.
They're bad.
No, I know.
They're terrible.
I know, but the average Democrat picks up the phone and they hear somebody on the other end going, are you a Democrat?
No.
Okay.
So
you're not admitting to it.
And it's getting to be a smaller and smaller pool because it's just on a suicide course.
It's fair.
AOC, 26%.
Bernie Sanders, who's 100,000 years old at 12%, but the same person as AOC.
Like AOC and Bernie Sanders are the same ideological spectrum.
It's very narrow.
And then maybe just slightly more, you know, maybe even dumber, but slightly more crazy is Jasmine Crockett.
She's third at 8%.
Hakeem Jeffries, who is...
theoretically the minority speaker right now, but no one knows who he is, 5%.
And then Pete Budigej at 5%.
Oh my God.
This is the craziest bench I've ever seen.
He's really bad.
Really bad.
You know, Budigej.
Now, I believe this poll was taken before the beard was revealed.
So it could be higher now.
Wait, what?
He's growing a beard, Glenn.
What?
He what?
Oh, yeah.
He's a big boy now.
He gets facial hair and everything.
Wow.
Yeah, it's pretty cool.
So his main accomplishments are putting in lighting under a bridge in his town of South Bend, was it?
I can't remember.
I don't know.
I don't know.
And then
he went into office and watched trains crash into each other constantly for four years.
And now he's supposed to be the leader of the Democratic Party.
Right.
That's got to be.
No, seriously.
Democrats, you got it going on.
You got it going on.
You do.
I'm going to explain why all of this matters because what they're doing is setting up for a new fight because they're expecting trouble on the horizon.
And And maybe, are we entering a summer of love again?
Glenn Beck.
Hackers love lazy passwords.
Let's be honest, you might too.
Password 123 is the number one most popular password.
Fluffy the cat, you know, Glenn Beck 1776.
Shouldn't have said that one out loud now that I'm thinking.
Look, I get it.
You're supposed to have a different complicated password for every site you visit.
Do you?
I can't memorize all of them.
It's got to be 16 characters and asterisks and one capital letter in the middle of something,
one number that completes the sentence and it's used as a letter.
I can't do it.
This is where Lifelock comes in.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Last night, if you missed the TV show, I'm going to give you a quick recap of it coming up in just a minute before J.D.
Vance.
Because I want to ask J.D.
Vance about the theory that I'm operating under on what's going on.
But let me just take a minute and talk to you a little bit about what is
happening
in the Middle East.
Yesterday, the president was in Qatar, and
he just secured the biggest deal for Boeing ever.
160, I don't even know, 727s or 777s or whatever they are now.
And
it's $200 billion.
Now, Donald Trump has no reason to go do business and help Boeing out right now.
He is smoked at Boeing.
But he does.
Why?
Because keep those jobs here, get Boeing some more business so they can actually have a chance to right themselves and actually stop operating like a government entity and more like an actual business, like Boeing used to be, and pull your butt out of the fire.
Here's the
opportunity, Boeing.
What are you going to do with it?
He's doing this all over the country, or I'm sorry, all over the world.
And he's bringing businesses here.
He's also at the same time making sure that AI, that we are in charge of AI.
We may not be.
It is going to be a close race between us and China.
And God help us if China wins.
But
whoever gets there first will rule the world.
And you do do not want a totalitarian to do that.
Now, I know people, you know, Democrats think Donald Trump is a totalitarian, but no, the totalitarian, the reason why Silicon Valley flipped to Donald Trump.
Do you know?
Do you know why Silicon Valley all of a sudden flipped to Donald Trump?
Yeah, because he likes oligarchs.
No.
Actually, it's because they were in a White House meeting with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
What a combination that must have been.
It was the meeting where Kamala Harris said to all of the leaders of AI: AI, it's actually two letters, AI, but it's two words, and it means artificial.
And they must have wanted to say, who's got a rope here?
I can hang myself.
I can't listen to this anymore.
But in that meeting, they were told, this according to Mark Andreessen, who is there,
they were told,
stop investing in AI.
The government's going to do all the investing in AI because we're going to own it.
And so
it's not anything you guys are going to be able to own.
And they said, well,
wait a minute.
What?
You can't, you can't do that.
Yes, we can.
How are you going to stop people from pursuing this?
And the answer was, we stop people from pursuing
nuclear weapons and nuclear energy.
We just, all we do is we just ban a portion of science.
Oh my gosh.
Is that you, Catholic Church from 1100?
Holy cow, what does that mean?
And they walked out of that meeting and went, we cannot, we cannot back these people because that's fascism.
It's worse than fascism.
That's totalitarianism.
That's why they were for Donald Trump.
And so Donald Trump.
has said we have to have AI, which he's right about.
We do not want somebody else having it.
I don't like our government having it.
I don't like Silicon Valley having it.
But I like those two options better than China.
So we got to have it.
So what has he done?
He has bulldozed all of the regulations,
the red tape.
So they can build their own power plants.
Now, suddenly the left is in trouble because AI has arrived and it needs what we produce right now.
In three years, it will need 99%
of all of the power that we currently produce.
Well, that doesn't leave anything for us to heat or cool our houses or drive around or do anything.
99%
is what it's going to require in three to four years.
So what did he do?
In a story that went nowhere, I couldn't believe he told me this in the interview.
He's like, yeah, I'm going to let them become utilities and they're going to provide their own power.
I'm going to let them build their own power plants, including nuclear power plants.
I mean, they're going to have to do it within the law, but I'm going to cut all the red tape because they need it and they need it now.
Holy cow, what?
Now they're going to build any kind of power plant they want, including nuclear.
That's how important.
So now what happens to the green energy thing?
What happens there?
Because we've been telling you for a long time, green energy is not ready for just the power that we currently need, but it certainly can't provide the power that we're going to need.
Now you see the evidence of it.
So now what happens to the Green New Deal?
Now what happens to Glasgow?
Now it happens to the Claris, the Paris Climate Accords, because
We can't participate in it.
Now,
Europe, they've decided not to produce AI.
They've decided let China or America do that.
We're going to stay out.
All they're doing is regulating things
so they can live in the past.
They will crumble because of it, but they can live over there.
So now we have
the Green New Deal not being a catalyst for the new World Economic Forum and, you know, their project that was supposed to happen in 2030.
Agenda 2030 also being put together because of all of the climate agenda and all of the woke agenda.
That's all from the United Nations.
In America, at least, that's all going to hell in a handbasket.
It's not in Europe.
So what is President Trump doing right now?
He's locking up rare earth minerals.
That's what...
That's what Greenland is really all about.
Rare earth minerals.
We need them.
Why?
Because we only produce
maybe
at most 5% of our own rare earth minerals.
You have nothing if you don't have rare earth minerals.
We are 100% reliant on
what some of the other things.
They're all used for Silicon Valley.
I had a list of them last night on the show, but they're all used in tech.
in defense, in computers, everything.
And we have none of it.
The top five things that we need
are 100%
import.
I should say the top four, because the fifth one is pharmaceuticals, and that's about 90% import.
We can't go on like that.
We can't.
So
what are we going to do?
We're trying to break up the things that are too big to fail.
Those big banks, what are they doing?
They're trying to put small banks still out of business and grow the banks even larger until you get to a central bank.
Well, I want to go the opposite direction.
And nobody is really talking about this.
Instead, we're talking about did he take the plane or not?
And that is important.
But did you see what happened this week?
I think this week in the Middle East is it is what he did this week is going to be remembered.
The speech in Riyadh is going to be remembered as a speech as impactful as the Gorbachev tear down this wall speech.
I absolutely absolutely believe that.
Because he's reshaping the entire world.
Let me ask you this.
How are things going in Europe?
Pretty good, huh?
What's the biggest problem in Europe?
What do you think the biggest problem Europe is facing right now?
Yeah, I mean, I think we'd probably be probably referring to immigration.
No, I want you to decide.
You tell me.
What do you think it is?
I think that would probably be big cultural changes, immigration.
I mean, I think, you know, I know some in Europe would argue potential Russia issues, which you generally the elites would do that.
Depending on how it goes over there, I suppose that could become a big issue.
Yeah.
But
I think that
the move, the constant move to the left, along with a bizarre open borders type of policy, which is changing not only their culture, but their laws and so many things.
That would be where I'd land, probably.
So, do you think that with what you know about NATO, and I want to talk to him about these as countries, not as NATO itself, but as countries, the countries of NATO,
how many of them do you think are actually
rooting for America and rooting for independence of the elites?
How many are saying, you know what, freedom, absolute freedom, freedom of speech, freedom to be, you know, to be who you are,
freedom of religion.
How many of them are actually standing up for that now?
It feels like less than half.
Easy, less than half.
Easy,
less than half.
Okay.
The ones that are doing it are the ones that were former Soviet states who have seen this show before.
Okay.
Poland is leading the way on that.
Hungary is leading the way on that.
They know, they've seen this movie before.
But France,
I mean, they're spiraling out of control.
And what's going to happen when it hits, when you start to hit real
economic problems,
what's going to happen?
You're going to have riots in the streets.
You're going to start to have race riots.
You're going to have Islamists and countries like Iran that is running the show for much of Islam, half of it,
the violent radical side, absolutely.
You think they're going to stay out of a collapse of Europe or are they going to help coordinate the takeover of Europe by Islam?
I mean, does any of this sound crazy?
Does that sound crazy?
Like it can't happen?
Nothing sounds crazy.
Nothing sounds crazy.
Okay.
So why is Donald Trump making these deals over in
Saudi?
Because I think
he knows what's coming.
And if you missed the show last night, give me 15 minutes.
I'm going to tell you.
I'm going to just recap some of the stuff that I talked to you about.
It all makes sense.
The whole world will start to open up for you and you'll understand the news.
But what he's seeing is these countries are not really our allies.
Canada now has Mark Carney.
Do you know who Mark Carney was?
He was the head of the Bank of Canada.
He was also the head of the central bank in London for Great Britain.
He was also the guy who was in charge and the main designer of the Glasgow Financial Accords, which
was the boot on the neck of the world for the World Economic Forum and ESG.
He led that movement.
He's now he's now he's now the Prime Minister of Canada.
In 2017, I think, or 2018, he gave a speech in Jackson Hole where he said the American dollar has got to no longer be the gold standard.
Do you know what that means if that happens?
It means we're Venezuela overnight.
Okay.
So is he a friend of ours?
Can we do business?
Will Canada have our back?
No.
No, they won't.
So
he is reestablishing and he's finding who are our friends, who can we count on, even if we keep him at an arm's distance, who can we count on and who can we save from going to China right now?
Remember, China has been courting
the entire Middle East.
China wants the Middle East.
What did Donald Trump just do?
He just got them away from China and back onto our side.
Now,
if things go crazy and there are riots in the streets and race riots or religious riots on the streets, do you think the United States and Donald Trump will now have the ability to lean on Saudi Arabia?
That's why he's trying to eliminate and box out Iran because they are a source of most problems over there and all around the world.
terrorism.
So he's trying to box and collapse them and he's trying to get the other Middle Eastern countries on our side so you can go to Saudi Arabia and say, could you help us with this?
Because
we white people don't have a say in this one at all.
We need somebody on the Islamic side that can say, this is wrong.
Stop it.
Whether they will or not, I don't know.
But I think that's one of the reasons.
The other reason he's over there securing all of that oil is not for us.
Remember, he's drill, baby, drill.
Why do we need their oil?
We don't.
But you know who does need their oil?
China and Europe.
So don't sell it to China.
Sell it to Europe.
But you know what?
Europe, you want to get fat and sassy?
Guess who's good friends with Saudi Arabia?
We are.
Why don't you get off this WEF train that is going to put you into the grave
or at least back off of us?
Because you won't have any energy.
I think the guy is brilliant, especially when you understand the overall picture of what is coming.
And the left knows it, the right should know it, but Donald Trump knows it.
I know it.
And if you don't, you will know it in just a few minutes.
And J.D.
Vance will be joining us in just a second.

Smart enough to scare burglars, simple enough to be set up by boomers.
That is simply safe.
Some home security systems, when you set them up, feel like you're programming a supercomputer.
You know, push this button, hold that for five seconds, enter the code backwards while spinning in a circle.
But that's not simply safe.
Simply safe is security with a setup that actually makes sense.
Whether you're a tech genius or somebody who still uses a flip phone and still says the Google, it only takes about 30 minutes, no tools, no drilling, no installer in your living room with booties.

Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.
If you've ever tried to, you know, if you've ever watched somebody try to deep fry a turkey for the first time, there's that wild-eyed confidence, that same slow-motion disaster in the making.
And sometimes that feels...
It feels like that when you're trying to sell your home without a good real estate agent or any real estate.
For sale by owner, is the new hold my beer.
Look, I get it.
You think, how hard can it be?
You post pictures of the house online, you show a few people around, maybe print out the flyer, boom, it's done.
Except that's never that simple.
Suddenly, you're negotiating contracts, dealing with inspections, answering calls from people who definitely can't afford your house but still want to tour it, and you're losing sleep over whether you're pricing it too high or way too low.
Why?
Because you're not an expert in that.
That's why I recommend realestate agentsitrust.com.
This is my company.
We vet vet the agents looking for the best in the business, vetted for their experience, their integrity, and their track record.
They'll sell your home fast and for the most money possible.

All right, back in 2020, I told you about something called the Great Reset.
I said that it was being planned.
We had been looking into it, and I honestly thought it was a conspiracy theory back in 2018 when we first started looking into it.
By 2020, it was clear because its slogan was Build Back Better.
And Joe Biden's slogan for president was build back better.
And that's one of the worst slogans I'd ever heard.
So, I mean, it wasn't a coincidence.
That slogan was not for you.
That slogan was one elite telling all of the other elites around the world, We are in with the WEF and the Great Reset, build back better.
And the Prime Minister of England used that same time as a slogan so did the prime minister of
of Japan build back better
it wasn't a coincidence they were sending a signal to the West we are all in on this then they found COVID and had a perfect opportunity because of the pandemic to merge the elites and their corporate conglomerates to seize control and it almost worked The new world order was being planned where the top 1% would reshape global society and every lever was being pulled to see it all through.
Green energy was the key.
That was the beard, if you will.
It was not only the reason because we're all going to die in a fiery flood,
and it was also the enforcement tool.
The banks and the financial system would pull everybody in and enforce it.
Mechanisms like open borders, strained and already weak social and economic fabric all over the West, channeling Cloward and Piven's national, state, and local governments, pushing them into an overwhelmed situation and a collapse ultimatum.
Think about where we were when we were putting up all of the migrants and I shouldn't even say that, the illegals in all of these five-star hotels.
We were headed for an overwhelming of each and every city and state.
And systems like the U.S.
economy, once considered too big to fail, being forced into default through unsustainable spending and debt increases.
Look how much our debt has gone up just in the last five years.
And now, suddenly, everybody in Washington,
they can't even think about spending at the same level of insane spending of 2017.
But we must.
Okay.
People ask me all the time, why would these people do this?
And I told you at the time, because they see what you don't see.
They see a collapse coming and they see somebody planning a way out that actually puts them on top.
You lose, but they'll be on top.
They won't lose their company.
They won't lose their fortunes.
They actually will become oligarchs in the end.
Now,
what is it that the elites know that we don't?
Remember, gold has gone through the roof, and that's mainly because somebody is buying up tons, literally tons of gold.
Here in America, I hope it's our treasury.
I really hope it's our treasury.
I don't know.
India, England, France, Germany, everybody's buying gold.
Why?
They know something you don't know.
The dollar is in trouble.
So the economic collapse that they talked about
is coming and it still is coming.
What's being changed is
what do we become after that collapse?
Do we collapse and are we burned up in that collapse?
Or do we get through that collapse and come out a stronger America
with the same understandings of what America was?
Or do we become part of a global state?
Okay.
Now, they were only helping collapse so they could control it and not let this crisis go to waste.
Now, Trump's in the Middle East making deals, biggest deal in history of Boeing yesterday: $200 billion.
The peace accords back on the table, rare earth minerals, pulling them away from China, trying to make peace in the Middle East.
Now,
as I told you last night on television, I put all of our stats as a nation, all of our financial stats, into three separate AI programs and said,
predict collapse or renewal.
What do these numbers tell you how long this nation has to last if we don't turn things around?
All of them, all three separate, came up with exactly the same answer.
And that answer begins in 2030.
Hmm, agenda 2030.
Huh.
The WEF.
2030 goals.
Everything starts in 2030.
Hmm.
Were they just pushing us along till we would collapse by 2030 because they know
what this means?
Now, listen, I'm going to give you more on that in just a second.
But first, let me show you what the solution was from all three programs.
Because when I got those, and wait until I show you those numbers, when I got the numbers, I was like, okay, okay, okay,
what does this mean?
Let me give you some of the responses from the AI programs.
Without action, the United States faces a financial disaster, losing its economic and geopolitical edge.
If the U.S.
debt reaches 180%, we're now at 125, which they told me back in 2008, we'll never get there.
And I said, yes, we will.
180% of gross domestic product.
There is a 50% chance the dollar loses its status as the global reserve currency.
To put that last one into context, again, our debt to GDP is 124 and rising quickly.
Over the last five years, on average, we have been putting about 1% increase every quarter.
So
the data includes the pandemic years, but it also shows how global catastrophes can skew closer to closer to that
180% point of economic explosion.
If the dollar loses its reserve status, the ramifications are we're Venezuela overnight.
Okay.
We're Venezuela.
So
what is Donald Trump doing?
And what is Congress?
This is going to make you mad about Congress.
Everyone has this same data.
If I can get it, they can get it.
Everyone has the same data.
That's why 2030, Agenda 2030,
you know, the WEF global agenda of 2030, everything is centered around 2030.
And that's why they were accelerating.
trying to create the unrest that you're going to be seeing on the streets of Europe and an economic collapse.
They've been accelerating it because they want it to fall into their hands by 2030.
None of this is a conspiracy theory.
All of this is in writing
online.
You can find it from the sources.
Okay.
The models told us that there are two big deciding factors for causing all of this.
The over $33 trillion in U.S.
debt, and see if this sounds familiar, trade deficits.
Now,
I'm not a trade war guy.
Trade deficits, what?
They say if nothing changes, if our debt continues to grow and our trade deficits continue, the models show that our probability over the next 20 years, this is the only thing, is that our deficits are growing and the trade deficit continues to grow at the same same pace it has been.
If those things happen by 2030 in five years, the dollar has a 5% chance of losing its reserve currency.
That's not collapse.
That's just the dollar losing reserve currency.
That would mean Venezuela, okay?
But this is without anything else going wrong.
No wars.
No strife, no economic collapse someplace else, no disruption in anything.
5%.
If something happens, it goes to 15%.
Okay, by 2035,
the debt to GDP is projected to be at 140.
The probability in 2035 goes to 25%.
And if there is a war, a pandemic, or something like that, the probability of our collapse goes to 35%.
By 2040, the probability is at 50%.
It's a coin toss.
By 2045, it's 70%.
This is this, do you understand how fast this is coming?
2040
is 15 years away.
15.
We are closer to that than we were by far than 9-11.
We're closer to that than we are to
the great
depression or recession of 2008
that happens in a flash and in 2040 we are 70 percent
according to the economic models and three different ais 70 likely to fail
okay
our problem now is our debt we are now paying more interest on our debt than we are on defense.
It's now the second highest thing we spend money on and it is is rising, not sustainable.
So a financial reset is coming.
And this is the main thing
I want you and your friends to understand.
A financial reset,
a financial collapse, and it can be either a collapse that is controlled in the good way or a collapse that is controlled in the
Great Economic Forum way.
One way or another, it's coming.
What do we do?
Do we destroy ourselves in that fire?
Or do we get through that and become stronger on the other side?
Because I don't know if you can avoid it yet.
But I want to show you what it said we have to do.
And I'll do that in 60 seconds.
First, retirement is not a scratch-off ticket.
It's not something you hope works out.
It is something you plan for.
At least it should be.
But too many people are still still basing their future off a pile of paper promises, you know, markets that swing with every election, every conflict, every whim of Wall Street.
And then they're all supposed to, you know,
you know, work.
And then when it comes up empty, everybody's like, what?
What happened?
Don't gamble with your future.
If you're nearing retirement, you cannot afford to gamble.
Please back some of what you have saved for your retirement with gold.

Okay.
So the warning is pretty clear.
The facts are pretty clear.
J.D.
Vance is coming up in about 10 minutes.
And everybody is arguing with Donald Trump.
And
they're saying, I don't agree with this.
I don't agree with that.
Whatever.
I don't agree with everything Donald Trump is doing.
But I do know collapse is inevitable at some point.
There's no way we make it to 2030, 2035, without a war, without a major disruption.
Of course we look at Europe.
Europe could collapse.
You think that's going to do anything to our economy?
Of course it will.
Of course it will.
So it's coming.
You got to prepare yourself for what is inevitable and then work to do all you can to make, to lessen the pain.
All right.
This all really stemmed from a letter that I got or an email or text that I got from one of my family members.
And they said, look, I don't agree with Donald Trump at all, and I think he's killing us.
And I tried to explain it, and I don't know if I did a very good job at explaining it at the time.
I tried to explain, look, it's coming.
And so were you for the Great Reset?
And if you don't believe the Great Reset, then I can't have a conversation with you because
you've already lost
the argument.
and you've already lost your way on seeing reality if you don't think the Great Reset and the World Economic Forum is doing what they're doing.
Canada,
the new prime minister, Mark Carney, is a guy who helped design the Glasgow finance.
It was his baby.
So all that climate change, all that WEF, all of the
ESG stuff came from the guy who is now the Prime Minister of Canada.
Just all you have to do is look it up.
So they were planning for a collapse.
They just thought they were right.
They didn't need to consult anyone.
They kept all this information from you for as long as they can.
And they just thought they were right.
And they were collapsing it into that.
You have to know about what they were trying to do to say, am I for that?
Or am I for another direction?
And the only other option on the table right now is what Donald Trump is doing.
Now, I asked AI any way to get out of this.
Yes.
All three models said export gains and onshoring.
So in other words, we've got to start making things here,
buying it ourself and
sending it offshore and selling it to other countries and onshoring, bring our companies back here.
Well, how are you going to do that?
You've got to watch the show because there is a really
I mean, everything will fall into place.
You will understand what's happening.
I'll give you a quick summary of it, but watch the show either on Blaze or on YouTube tonight.
But
how do you onshore?
And how do you start making things that we could sell abroad when our salaries are so high?
Because of the other piece, AI.
AI is going to turbo
automation.
Well, wait a minute.
Isn't that going to put people out of work?
Yes.
Out of the kinds of work that everybody says they don't want, the menial, you know, manufacturing stuff.
Okay, but that's what we're bringing back is manufacturing?
Yes.
But
the things that have to be built in the next 10 years
will keep millions of Americans busy building.
We still need to build things.
Think of just the 60 nuclear power plants that the president has just said need to be built in the next four years.
It's not going to happen.
I mean, you imagine what that, what a gigantic
works project that will be?
It's coming.
All of the server farms, all of the factories that are going to have to be built.
So there will be jobs.
They're just not going to be the same kinds of jobs.
But again,
the most important thing about this is that all of the programs said the
chances of survival are exactly the same, all three programs.
All three of them said you've got to cut the deficit on shore
and fix the trade balance.
Okay.
But the key was.
The absolute key was the speed
at which it has to be done.
It must, success, I'm going to quote, success depends on rapid execution and global cooperation.
Why is Donald Trump over in the Middle East trying to secure global cooperation?
Success depends on rapid execution.
Why is he moving so fast?
Why are things happening so fast?
Because he has the same information that you can have,
the same information that I have, the same information that the World Economic Forum has, and the only way to solve this is to move quickly with global cooperation.
We can't even get Congress to understand this.
But you must understand it.
Because anything that slows this down is going to be a problem.
Now, that doesn't mean we just blindly go and just do something.
No, no, no.
I want to see the plan and I hold back the right to say,
wait, I don't think that's a good idea.
However, in looking at what I'm seeing
and looking at the numbers,
it seems to be a really well thought out plan.
Right now, the biggest problem is nobody understands it.
They just think we're in the same, you know, the same time that we've always been where people are saying, we got to cut our budget, and then nobody does anything, and it's fine.
We're not there anymore.
JD Vance, next.
This is Glenn Beck.
China is not just building missiles and military bases, they are buying up American farmland, and they are quietly taking over global supply chains for fertilizer, animal feed, even farm equipment.
Why?
Because whoever controls the food controls the people.
And if you think we're immune here in the U.S., think again.
It takes one global shock, a war, a blockade, a failed harvest, and suddenly grocery stores, they start looking very different.
That's why I partner with my Patriot Supply.
I've been warning you about this for years, and we are not past
the place where we might need it.
I hope you never, ever need it.
I hope all of this stuff works itself out.
But I'm not asking you to be
in a panic mode.
I'm saying you should be prepared so you don't panic.
Because if China's goal is to control the global food system, I'd like to be one of the few who has a say in what I eat.
Right now, when you get the four-week emergency food supply, you get four free 72-hour food kits.
That's an extra 12 days of food, absolutely free.
You can't control what China does or anybody, what anybody does, but you can control how prepared you are for it.

We welcome to the program, the Vice President of the United States, and somebody who I think has a presidency.
in his future, J.D.
Vance.
Welcome to the program, Mr.
Vice President.
Glenn, how are we doing?
I'm great.
I'm great.
What an amazing few days the president has had, first with all of the
foreign winds before he left, with the wars, you know, and everything that the State Department and Marco Rubio is doing.
And
now this speech, I think this Riyadh speech is historic.
on so many levels.
How would you describe what's going on in the Middle East this week?
Yeah, so I agree with you, Glenn, about that particular speech.
I mean, when I listened to it, and I obviously knew a little bit about what the president was going to say, it changed a little bit, I would say, over the last couple of days.
But the core message is very simple, that America wants not to remake the world in America's image.
We don't want to force our allies to adopt our exact form of government.
We actually want to be in the business of shared interest and shared economic cooperation.
And so long as you're not trying to kill anybody, and so long as you're interested in building wealth for your citizens and working with America, then America is open for business.
And I think that's a very important signal to send to the world.
You know, the Obama administration economist Larry Summers had a very smart point a few years ago.
He said, you know, when the Chinese show up in the developing world, they show up with a bag of money.
When Americans show up in the developing world, they show up with a lecture.
And if you're, you know, given a choice between a lecture and a bag of money, you're going to choose the bag of money every step of the way.
I think what the president is saying is that era of American preachiness and America telling other countries how to live their lives, that era is over.
And I think it's a very important point for the Middle East.
It's a very important point for the whole globe.
And, you know, in some ways, only President Trump could have made that argument at this point in time.
Are we stopping with the bags of money, too?
I think we're stopping with both.
But
we are really looking at economic cooperation.
You know, in Africa, for example, Glenn, you have American diplomats sent by the Biden administration who are telling very conservative Christian African countries that they need to fly the LGBTQ flag, but they're not engaging in any economic arrangement where, you know, the Africans have critical minerals that we need.
They have other industries that we could be participating in, we could be partnering on.
And I think that's the bags of money point.
It's not that we're going to give them money, but that we could have some shared economic relations with a conservative African country where we wouldn't want to tell them how to live their lives.
We would actually just want to enter into a partnership with them.
And that's, again, a big, big change.
It's a big shift, but it's an important shift from a very dumb American foreign policy to a very smart one that I think is going to benefit this country for the next generation.
There was this old TV show.
It was a game show when I was a kid called the $20,000 Pyramid.
And they would allow you to say pass, and you could skip the subject or the question.
And I'll give you that.
We're playing the $20,000 pyramid here.
I look at the reaction of your speech in Europe, then I see the moves that they're making.
I see the new prime minister of Canada, who was the architect of the Glasgow Financial Accords.
And I'm not sure that we're on the same page anymore.
We can be friends with everybody, but I'm not sure we're walking down the same path anymore with those countries.
Well, it worries me, Glenn, because, look, there are certainly some economic benefits and friendships that we can have with a lot of our, you know, sort of Western European and obviously our Canadian friends.
But in Western Europe in particular, you know, my view on this, Glenn, is our relationship with Western Europe is always going to be unique.
You know, America, of course, started as an English colony.
We're always going to have a special relationship with the United Kingdom.
But what that means means fundamentally is that if we see certain Western European countries, in Germany, for example, where we have 38,000 troops, if we see Germans doing something that is incredibly offensive to America's values, I think Americans are going to recoil a little bit at that.
And, you know, I went to Germany very recently, very briefly, Glenn, just to visit the troops and say hello.
And I was hearing from Germans even during that very brief visit on the ground things that they were worried about free speech policies in their own country.
Well, if we've got 38,000 troops there and we're living amongst the Germans, we're literally defending their country,
I think you can expect Americans to at least express some negative opinions about some of the free speech policies they're seeing in Europe.
And Glenn, you know this as well as anybody.
Things that start in Europe sometimes come over to America in the same way that things that start in America sometimes make their way to Europe.
The kind of social media censorship that we've seen in Western Europe, it will in some ways already has made its way to the United States.
That was the story of the Biden administration silencing people on social media.
So we're going to be very protective of American interests when it comes to things like social media regulation.
We want to promote free speech.
We don't want our European friends telling social media companies that they have to silence Christians or silence conservatives.
And I think there is going to be that friction over the next 10 years.
It's not that we're not friends, but there are going to be some disagreements you didn't see 10 years ago.
So, you know, they have decided they're not going to pursue being a leader in AI, but they're going to make all the rules.
How confident are you that we are in
a winning position here on AI?
It is advancing so rapidly.
And the things I hear that
come out of China, it's either, no, they're way behind, it's all a paper tiger, or they're way ahead.
Where are we, do you think, on AI and
AGI?
Well, I think that we're ahead, Glenn, but
nobody who says that we're way ahead should be believed.
In artificial intelligence, six months is a lifetime.
12 months is a generation.
We're probably 12 months, maybe two years ahead of where the Chinese are when it comes to critical hardware, when it comes to the necessary infrastructure, when it comes to the engineering talent.
But that is not very far ahead at all.
And we're really going to have to invest a lot in developing America's next generation of scientists.
Glenn, we're going to have to make sure that our hardware companies, that we stop regulating them to death, that our energy infrastructure, that we stop regulating it to death.
Because if we allow the Chinese to catch up, we may never, ever have an edge on China in this space again.
And I think a lot of people, you know, artificial intelligence, it's a chat bot.
It's something that maybe helps a college student write a paper.
No, no, no, no.
The artificial intelligence that I'm worried about, Glenn, is the kind of intelligence that helps them develop next-generation weapons, that helps their rockets and missiles hit their target
99% more accurate than
the weapons that aren't using artificial intelligence.
There are just massive defense technology implications of this that it's kind of like, you know, what would have happened if the English Army had fought the Americans in the Revolutionary War and we had M16s and they had muskets.
We don't want to meet on a battlefield of the future and have, you know, we have the muskets and the Chinese have the M16s.
I think AI is a critical part of staying ahead of the communist Chinese.
And it's something, look, we're very focused on.
We've got a great guy in David Sachs of the administration who's leading this effort, but it's full pedal to the metal glen.
We have to constantly be innovating and staying ahead of the game.
We can't follow the European lead of regulating.
We want America to innovate, and that's what we're going to keep doing.
I spoke to the president a couple of weeks weeks ago, and he, you know, I was going to ask him about nuclear energy, and he just volunteered.
You know, I said, you know, what about energy with AI?
And he, he, we went into saying, you know,
we're talking about making them their own, uh, their own utilities.
They can build it.
We're going to clear even if they want to make nuclear power plants.
That didn't.
print.
I mean, I thought that was one of the bigger headlines of my lifetime.
And nobody seemed to pick that up or care about that.
And
we do lose if we don't have these power plants.
Are we, what are we doing to accelerate?
I mean, they need 99% of our power by
2028.
99% of the power that's currently being made.
We need power plants.
Yeah, you're a smart guy, Glenn, because I don't know what else the president said during that interview, but I doubt it was as important as that point.
Nothing.
This is a critical issue.
And you ask what we've done.
We've had Lee Zeldon at the EPA and all of our environmental folks look at how we cut through the red tape and make it possible.
Because the market would do this, right?
These companies would like to do this, but it's the environmental bureaucrats that have told them you can't really attach a power plant off-grid to a pure artificial intelligence hardware facility.
We're tearing down those regulations and making it possible again.
And then, of course, Glenn, part of this is not just building these facilities, but is powering them with the fuel that we need.
And the president, you know, you hear this term, all of the above.
The president has really said we're in all of the above.
Like, you know, we're reducing regulations on coal.
We're empowering the natural gas folks, petroleum, obviously nuclear.
Like, this is a president who said, all power that we have, we need to put into this
prospect.
And Glenn, one more important point on this.
If you look at a chart of electricity generation, the People's Republic of China versus the the United States,
20 years ago, we blew them out of the water.
Right now, the PRC is producing about three times as much electricity as we are, and we flatlined over the last 20 years.
That's innovation.
That's development.
That's got to change, Glenn.
We have got to be producing more power for the next wave of innovation.
It's maybe the most important part of the puzzle.
So
I did a show last night on just that a reset is coming.
It's inevitable that a reset is coming.
And we have to hurry, cut the budget,
onshore,
fix the tariff or the trade deficit, or we don't really have a chance of doing anything.
And as I was looking at, we ran three different models through AI and they all came back with the same stuff.
And we're doing those.
The president is doing those things, except for the cutting of the budget.
I mean, Congress won't even pass the Doge cuts.
When will the White House become strong on you must cut the spending?
Yeah, great question, Glenn.
And I will say the big, beautiful bill text just came out last week.
That's going to change a lot from now until then.
We've already had conversations with House leadership that we want to see some more significant efforts to rein in spending here.
The president also believes, Glenn, and I think he's right about that, that if you cut the trade deficit or
you raise revenue through tariffs, that you actually go a long way to making the country on a more sustainable fiscal pathway as well.
But you're right, you can't do it without cutting domestic spending.
We're going to have to do it and get serious about it.
I mean, I think the red money is making that as clear to congressional leaders as possible.
But look,
knock on wood here, but I think that once we get the final package out of the House and the Senate, Senate, we're going to have something that's serious
on budget cutting.
And there's one final point on this, Glenn.
What no one talks enough about, and when I talk to Elon, I talk to the Doge folks, where they think they're going to get the most cuts is in taking people, illegal aliens and other people who are defrauding the Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security system.
Like you think about two people, right?
A guy who's paid into Social Security for 40 years.
Obviously, we want that guy to get his Social Security benefits.
You compare that person to an illegal alien who's engaged in Medicaid fraud.
Obviously, we don't want that person to get their benefits.
I think Democrats are going to fight us on this, but this is such an important point.
We cannot allow people to defraud the Medicare and Medicaid system, or it's going to bankrupt this country.
It's also just fundamentally unfair.
I don't want people who shouldn't even be here to be on the public dole.
Right.
I know you're headed over to the Vatican.
You're going to be celebrating the inaugural Mass of Pope Leo this weekend along with Senator Rubio, who's also Catholic.
You had one of the last conversations with the last Pope.
Why does the Pope matter so much to the world?
And I want to talk beyond faith and religion.
Why is he so important?
Well, you know, obviously, right, he is the leader of 1.4 billion Catholics.
And so there is just a lot of soft influence, right?
He doesn't have a military, he doesn't have an army, but he does have a lot of influence through those Catholics.
And, you know, a lot of those Catholics, I think we won a majority of Catholics in the last election, but a lot of those Catholics continue to vote Democratic.
And so, you know, there is just a natural influence in
having the ear of 1.4 billion faithful people, including, you know, 100 million or so in the United States.
I also think, Lynn, something I picked up on, and you don't see a lot of headlines about this, but the Vatican has already played a very constructive role in some of the peace conversations that we've been having all over the world.
They've been trying to facilitate negotiations between the Russians and the Ukrainians.
They've been trying to facilitate other peaceful negotiations between various countries.
And so
they have that soft power, right?
They have the ear of those Catholics.
But then they also have an ability to use that soft power to play a mediating role in some of of these disputes.
So, you know, while the Pope doesn't have an F-35 standing behind him, he does have the prayers of a lot of faithful Catholics, and that matters when you try to insert yourself into these conversations.
So we welcome that engagement.
As you know, the President really does believe that we can have less conflict in the world if we just have cooler heads prevail.
So, yeah, we welcome that engagement and we'll continue to do so over the next few years.
Thank you so much, Mr.
Vice President, for all you do.
If you don't know why he picked Leo as his name, you in particular will be fascinated by it.
You'll have to ask him because
you'll love the reason why he did.
Have a safe trip.
Thank you for everything that you've done and Godspeed.
Thanks, Gwyn.
Take care, man.
Bye-bye.
J.D.
Vance, our vice president.
All right, let me tell you about good ranchers.
There is something sacred about American farmland.
The smell of fresh earth, the sound of cattle moving through the open fields, the callous handshakes of men and women who don't just raise animals, they live the life of the land.
These aren't shadowy factory farms in foreign countries.
Their family operations pass down through the generations, rooted in the soil, and they have integrity in their blood.
They produce real American meat.
I want you to don't worry about any of the tariffs.

Pull up a chair, my friend.
You're in the right place.
This
is Glenn Beck.
Home title theft has become the financial crime that no one sees coming.
While you sleep soundly thinking your property is secure, criminals are scanning public records looking for valuable targets.
These records are surprisingly accessible.
And with the right forged documents, thieves can legally transfer your home title to their name without you receiving even a single notification.
Once they control your title, they waste no time.
They secure massive loans against your equity and disappear with the cash.
The money vanishes into untraceable accounts.
You're just kind of there picking up the pieces.
You know, you got to deal with mortgage payments that you got to continue to make on a home that might not even still be yours.
The systems we trust for protection often fail in these situations.
Your bank has no mechanism to detect that fraud.
Identity protection and services focus on credit cards and social security numbers, which is great, but not property records.
And insurance companies specifically exclude title theft from their coverage.
Home Title Lock was created specifically to address this gap.
They spot suspicious activity instantly and alert you before the transfer is even complete.
The team of experts guides you through the blocking the fraudulent claims before all of your equity disappears as well.
Your home represents years and years of hard work and sacrifice and technology is changing the world.
Don't let it change the name on your home's title.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
By the way, you know why he picked Leo, the Pope?
He picked the name Leo because the last Leo was at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
And he presided of holding people together through that turmoil.
And he said, with AI coming, the same kind of turmoil is coming, except at a much greater degree.
And he wanted to be...
reflect that we'll stay together and hold together during this turmoil.
Good ranchers, have you shopped for meat meat at the grocery store lately?
Ribeye costs more than used Kia at this point.
Chicken breasts, I think, are requiring financing and bacon, luxury.
Anyway, the worst part of it is for all of that money, you still don't know where that meat is coming from.
Maybe Brazil, maybe Botswana, maybe some giant global meat lab.
If it says comes from the U.S., it doesn't mean anything.
That sticker is lying to you.
There's so many loopholes on that.
You know, I think it's 80% of the meat in the store does not come from America.
Everything they sell at Good Ranchers is 100% American meat.
Born here, raised here, packaged here by actual ranchers who know what they're doing.
And it's all sourced here in America.

This is
the Glenbeck program.
Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.
The Solicitor General Sawyer is now
arguing a case in front of the Supreme Court of whether a liberal judge can block the president, you know, and birthright citizenship, et cetera, et cetera.
And all of the liberal justices are just slamming the guy.
And guess what?
Amy Cohen-Barrett is now looking like she might go with the liberals as well.
Can we ever...
ever, ever get a good judge on our side?
Ever.
One that actually reads the Constitution and just doesn't go soft and liberal all the time ever anytime thomas and alito sure twice yeah twice
twice yes twice thank you very much for that uh all right um i just want to talk about um
uh you know a little bit of the hypocrisy a couple of stories of it just makes blood shoot out of my eyes we'll do that in just a second first the first picture of a person is not on facebook It's not even, you know, it's not even after they're born.
the first picture of a person is usually before the name has been chosen before there's a gender reveal party sometimes before anyone else even knows mom is expecting it's an ultrasound picture that first image tiny form fluctuating and flickering heartbeat and suddenly it's real
That's why pre-born provides free ultrasounds to women facing unplanned pregnancies because that first picture has the power to change hearts and save lives.
Statistically, when a woman sees her baby on ultrasound, she's far more likely to choose life.
And it's not a theory, it's a proven, powerful moment of connection.
Preborn does not lecture.
They don't shame.
They offer truth in the form of a picture that speaks for itself.
And then,
and then they take care of mom and the baby.
If nobody else is there for, they'll help her for two years.
That picture, that life, is worth everything, and so is mom's.
Please, you want to join this effort?
You want to help stamp this evil out?
Preborn.com/slash slash Beck.
Do it through love, not through lectures.
It's preborn.com slash Beck.
Sponsored by Preborn.
All right.
You know,
I have something else planned, but I just want to say something here because this Pre-Born commercial reminded me of it.
You know that abortion is going through the roof in the United States, just going through the roof.
And the reason why it's going through the roof is because the Food and Drug Drug Administration has just said, no, you can take that abortion pill.
That abortion pill is
putting women in the hospital and girls in the hospital.
It's not what they say.
It is a violent violent for many women.
It is violent and they end up with serious complications.
And nobody's paying attention to it.
And I have to tell you,
I'm not sure what to do about it except, you know, stand up and start, you know, maybe,
maybe
going to
Kennedy on this.
There's absolutely no other pill that would be allowed in the United States that had this rate of big complications.
It would never happen.
And it's just because this is a death pill and there is a death cult that is running rampant through America.
But can I just appeal to one thing?
You know, we always talk about the babies.
Imagine your daughter or your neighbor's daughter, your friend's daughter.
She's too afraid.
She's freaked out.
She doesn't want to talk to you.
She didn't want to tell anybody because she's embarrassed.
She's ashamed.
She thinks she's going to be ostracized.
Whatever it is.
And she gets the abortion pill.
And she's like, I'm just going to go upstairs.
I'm just, I'm going to work on my homework or whatever it is.
And she has an abortion in her own bathroom.
And she doesn't know what to do
with the remains of the baby.
She gives birth.
And so she's sitting there with a baby.
These abortion clinics now have people coming in, girls coming in, wrapped in a towel with a body in it.
Okay, that's traumatic enough.
But then she goes back home and she has to go, every time she goes to the bathroom,
she's going back to the room where the most horrific thing she's ever experienced happened every day, inflicting every day.
You want to talk about somebody who can be destroyed for life.
This is so immoral and so wrong.
So wrong.
I mean,
you want to do that as an adult.
I don't think you should have the right to do it because you're killing a life.
But it is completely different when it is happening to a child,
to a young girl, her life.
I think the older one too, but
my gosh, she doesn't know anything.
And you're just going to...
It is a horror show.
Anyway, I'll stop the lecture.
New York Times said that they've got a bunch of people that are going to leave now.
A lot of them are teaching at Yale, and they study fascism, and so they know what it is.
And
they can spot it faster than anybody else.
And so
they got to get out of here and go to Canada,
where the new prime minister was.
Commander-in-Chief of the fascistic World Economic Forum Glasgow Accords.
Okay.
Literally, the architect of the Glasgow Financial Accords.
The guy who put it all together for ESG, but they want to escape fascism because they know what it's like.
I can't take it.
I just can't take it.
I can't, you know what?
I can take somebody who says, I can't stand Donald Trump because I think he's a fascist.
Okay.
And I got evidence.
Okay.
Well, where were you on
the unbelievable aggressive prosecution of January 6 defendants?
Where were you on that?
Where were you on the government telling all the phone companies and the airlines, turn over your information.
I got to know everybody who is in Washington without any kind of warrant.
Where were you, Mr.
and Mrs.
I hate fascism?
Where were you on the prosecute?
No, the persecution of the pro-life activists under the FACE Act.
Where were you on the attempts to indict Donald Trump over and over and over?
Where are you on Letitia James today?
How about the FBI labeling parents as domestic threats?
Where were you, Mr.
and Mrs.
I hate fascism, on the social media censorship thing that went on?
Proven.
Much worse than anybody even thought it was.
The proposed disinformation governance board.
Where were you on that?
You were fine here in America during all of this.
You're like, oh, no, we're not going to have fascism at all.
Where were you on ESG?
The FBI's handling of traditional Catholics.
The Hunter Biden investigations.
Compare and contrast.
Compare and contrast.
Where were you on that?
The vaccine mandate push where you don't have any medical rights.
and maybe we should scoop you up maybe we shouldn't treat you for anything I say let them crash
I mean
where were you on that
you were nowhere you were nowhere so don't tell me you know about fascism I can spot fascism on both sides how come you can only spot it on one side isn't that weird and that really weird you know but it's it's a little like you know Hillary Clinton you know, ripping Trump over the Qatar plane.
I'm with you.
I don't want him to take the plane.
I think that's a huge mistake.
I don't think he should take the plane.
But Hillary Clinton, are you kidding me?
You're making blood shoot out of my eyes.
You took,
what, $5 million from Qatar?
As a birthday gift, as a birthday gift, and you gave it to your foundation.
By the way, a foundation that closed its doors the moment you didn't have power.
The moment you couldn't extort
money.
The moment you couldn't sell access and favors that, oh, the Clinton Foundation is a global foundation is one of the most important things we've ever, ever done.
Oh, we're out of office.
We'd have no power.
We're closing the doors.
What?
What?
The UAE gave you $5 million.
Kuwait gave you $10 million.
Oman gave you $5 million.
Algeria gave you
$500,000.
Ukraine.
Ukraine gave you $10 to $25 million.
Bahrain.
The crown prince donated $32 million.
A guy up in Canada gave you $25 million.
By the way, he's not just some guy.
He's the Canadian mining
magnate, which, by the way,
oh, does anybody remember when Azerbaijan gave the Clinton Foundation a whole bunch of money?
And then all of a sudden Azerbaijan could start mining and selling and everything.
When the Russians started giving money and then all of a sudden
we were selling our,
what was it, uranium,
selling our uranium to them.
Come on, please give it a rest.
I can't just really, honestly.
And let's put a thinking cap on for a second.
Look, I know both sides are dirty.
I know it.
I know it.
If they weren't, why would we be dealing with the same thing over and over again?
Why would we send a message to Congress and to the Senate?
Cut the budget, pass the tax cuts.
We have spoken.
I mean, think of the overwhelming mandate just in this.
No person ever before
who wanted to run for president of the United States has been investigated more than this current president.
They couldn't find anything, so they made a whole bunch of stuff up.
They prosecuted him over and over and over.
They broke their own laws and risked the business of New York by,
excuse the expression, trumping up a bunch of stuff about business.
That's not even a crime.
It's not a crime.
They tried to kill him.
They did everything they could.
And it wasn't just the left here in America.
It was the entire elite of the entire world.
Corporations, every single politician across the sea, they were all against, all against him.
And yet the guy still wins?
Not just the Electoral College, but the popular vote.
That's kind of an overwhelming victory.
Who else could have withstood that?
Who else?
And then what they do to the supporters.
Have you heard about the, where was she?
She was in Maine and she was an English teacher.
And
she posted,
let's see if I have this.
Here's what she posted.
The Secret Service has a perfect opportunity if they choose to step up and take it.
You're the ones with power.
Coordinate.
Take out every single person who supports Trump's illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts.
Look at the sycophants and give them what they're asking for.
Every other country sees what's happening and they're taking stands.
If you step up now, we can avoid civil war.
Okay, this is in April.
I'm not talking about assassinating a president.
No, of course you're not.
No, no.
What are they going to do?
Step up and do what?
And take him out where?
To the movies?
I'm not talking about assassinating a president because a president is a person duly elected by the American people.
Trump has shamelessly bragged openly about stealing the election.
When, when, when?
He's when.
He's bragged publicly about and shamelessly about stealing the election.
Stealing the election.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I missed that.
He's making plans right now to give himself a third term, or he's trolling.
One of the two.
I'm talking about Americans recognizing a fascistic dictatorship and standing against it.
Secret Service, you're Americans.
My beloved military, you're Americans.
We, the people, are counting on you.
This is the first time any of these liberals have ever liked the military or anybody in law enforcement.
This is the only time when they're encouraging them to kill somebody they don't like.
Okay,
so now this was in April.
She's come out and she's apologized for this.
And you're going to have a lot of sympathy for her.
A lot of sympathy.
Because she said, I had a mental breakdown due to severe insomnia.
Oh, no.
Sounds terrible.
Sounds terrible.
You know,
you have a sleepless night or two, or maybe even five.
You immediately go and say, kill the president.
You know, that's the first thing that always happens.
I've been under the care of an incredible psychiatric team.
They saw what was happening and worked with me to help get fully back to myself.
Mostly what I needed was sleep.
I hope you have no idea.
You have, I hope you have no idea the psychosis lack of sleep brings.
I regret my words of violence towards the current administration.
That's not in my heart when my brain is well.
I never have received so much as a speeding ticket.
I loathe guns and violence.
I meet every individual with respect and an open mind when I am well.
I have the most genuine remorse for making people feel unsafe.
And she said, However, I did mean every word I said about the rise of fascism and the horror of trafficking humans to foreign prison.
The trafficking of humans.
You have no problem with the trafficking of humans coming this way across our border.
Oh, I get it.
Uh-huh.
So she's just saying, you know,
I mean, you know,
maybe I can go be a teacher again.
No, no, you know, uh-uh.
And it's not necessarily just what you've said.
It's also the fact that
you said that.
because you said you couldn't sleep
and
you have a deep psychosis.
I don't think I'm going to, no, I'm not comfortable with you and my children.
Maybe it's just me.
But, but then again, I'm sure those on the left who have claimed I'm mentally ill for my, for my points of view, I'm sure you'd be fine with me teaching your children.
If you ate what your dog eats, you'd sue somebody.
Seriously, if your dinner was dry brown,
for years, made in a factory, and then they spray on flavor, I don't know.
I think you might call an attorney, you know, especially if you had to eat it every single day.
But for some reason, we just scoop it into a bowl and say, good boy.
Dogs need real nutrition, just like we do.
And that you should give your dog rough greens.
You don't have to change the food.
It's not a dog food.
It's a nutritional supplement that you add to whatever they're already eating.
And it has all the good stuff in it, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, digestive enzymes.
You know,
all the stuff that's been cooked out of their kibble.
And the difference, you'll see it.
You'll see it in their coat.
You'll see it in their eyes and their energy first, their digestion, even their mood.

So, Ben Cohen, you know who Ben Cohen is?
From Ben and Jerry's?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
He was removed yesterday from the hearing with Robert F.
Kennedy,
about 15 minutes into the hearing.
You have it?
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Here's the hat.
Look for the guy that you see his lovely face on ice cream.
Members of the audience.
And he's eventually removed.
There he is.
He's saying, Congress,
Congress pays for bombs.
Congress pays pays for bombs.
And they kill people.
Members of the audience are reminded disruptions are not.
We hope if we're buying bombs, they should kill people.
Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from the hearing room.
I mean, let me have some ice cream right now.
Let me get some of that.
You know?
So bizarre.
So bizarre.
And he's protesting at RFKG.
Who would be completely aligned with him, I think, on this issue.
On that issue, on a lot of
boxes.
And you know what?
They just took some things out because RFK is forcing them to take it out of their ice cream.
Ben and Jerry's stuff in their ice cream that is not healthy for you according to RFK.
That's a, I mean, that's amazing.
Ice cream typically not seen as a healthy food.
No.
No.
No.
No.
But generally speaking.
I mean, the Rocky Road Rockefeller with just a little bit of petroleum in it might have been a little, might have been a little too much.
Might have been a little too much.
You you know and then you can choose not to eat it it's that's a wonderful thing you can do if you don't think it's but i mean like i it's just strange the alignments here like i know it didn't was it did i i admit this may be a fever dream honestly at this point i i so i'm i'm out on a limb on this but did did ben and jerry go on with tucker recently is this a is this a thing that occurred okay people are saying yes i think it i mean it's just It's amazing the conversations that are happening out there right now.
I mean, look, look, it's good that you should be able to talk to people.
I'm sure Tucker doesn't agree with most of what what Ben
believes of Ben and Jerry.
And Jerry on?
I don't.
I think it was only Ben.
It was like having the cat from Tom and Jerry.
I don't know which one was the cat, which one was the mouse, but I think Tom was a cat
and Jerry was the mouse.
I didn't have an interview with just the cat.
So you want to have both the cat and the mouse there at the same time.
I mean, they're a team, really.
We'll get with our booking department.
Make sure we can make that happen.
Thank you.
Appreciate it.
This is Glenn Beck.
Here's a text you might get from your current wireless carrier if they knew more about you and they were being honest.
Hey, it's not you, it's me.
Actually, it is you.
You believe in freedom and I don't.
You think the Constitution is like, I don't know,
good.
I think it's a little problematic.
I need customers who share my values, you know, who hate cops and stuff like that and want to kill babies.
Anyway, I think maybe we should break up.
That's what your cell phone company, you know, if they were being honest, that's what they would write to you.
And you'd break up, okay?
Instead of dumping you, you should be dumping them.
It's them, not you.
Okay.
Do you want your money to go to causes like Planned Parenthood?
Because if you're with Verizon, they give that.
Patriot Mobile is the only cell phone company that actually believes in what you believe, faith, family, freedom.
They support the right causes.
They use the same towers and they're going to make it easy to switch.
In fact, they're the only company that'll give you, the big guys can't do this.
They'll give you access to both
companies.
So if you're like, no, I get better service with this company here and better service, they'll give you service with both.

Right now, SCOTUS is listening to arguments on birthright citizenship.
The focus really is on the judge's power to block policies nationwide.
That's got to stop.
That just has to stop.
But we'll see what the Supreme Court has to say.
That's really the focus of this, too.
It's really not as much about birthright citizenship, right?
From what I'm understanding,
that's more about the injunctions.
Yeah, and it's going to be very narrow, even on the injunctions, I think.
Really?
Yeah.
So
we'll see.
We'll see.
So welcome to the program.
We're glad you're here.
You know, who's not here is Ben and Jerry.
He's here in my heart.
I mean, in that way, but I mean by like the calcium built up from all of the heart disease that I've received from the company over the years.
But yeah, no, he's not here.
He was at that big hearing.
He was, I'm getting, it's difficult to understand where everyone is anymore.
Like, I feel like at the time,
it was, this was easier back in the day.
You know, like, you could kind of like, you hear Ben and Jerry, you knew left, right?
Like, it was easy.
Now, I, you know, I
missed the days when we could just put labels on people and it was easy.
It was easy.
It made things a little bit easier to keep track of.
You know, like some people have put
the label anti-Semite, for example, on Ben and Jerry in their company over the years.
That was a label that I thought was interesting.
Right.
You know, it's, but it's, he's like now now opposing RFK who
I mean, I think it's on probably Ben and Jerry's side on many things.
Almost everything, right?
Like there are some things RFK has obviously changed now when it comes to the woke stuff.
And I think some of the censorship stuff, although I think, you know, I think I could be wrong on this, but maybe Ben might even be one of those old school socialist types that would
maybe even agree with us on some of the censorship stuff, right?
Maybe.
Maybe.
You know, because I mean, mean, part of the set, the socialist movement in the United States was kind of built on the opposition, right?
Was kind of built on the opposition to like the McCarthyism.
And so there was some ideological.
They were for that when they were the ones being shut up.
Of course.
That's the way it always works.
And now that they're not the ones being told to shut up, they're like, we have every right to tell you to shut up.
Yeah.
Like, oh, okay.
Let me ask you this, though, because
he's also been embraced by some parts of the right.
And, and, you know, like Tucker did an interview with him.
That's not an embrace.
You could talk to whoever you want to talk to, right?
There's nothing wrong with that.
We've done it.
We've talked to people on the far, far left, even much farther left, and crazier than even Ben or Jerry over the years.
I no problem with that.
As a journalist, you should do that.
I mean, you know, Tucker talked to Vladimir Putin.
Yeah.
Right.
So did Megan Kelly.
Yeah.
I would talk to
America's biggest enemies.
Yeah.
But I wouldn't
up to them.
Right.
You would ask tough questions.
I'm sure.
I'm sure Tucker did in the interview.
But we are, I've noticed this thing that we're doing, and I'm a little concerned.
Let me see if I can articulate this.
Us on the right, the conservative side of the spectrum, find
someone
who has some crossover with us in some way, but is really a figure of the left.
And we kind of give them this warm embrace and say, hey, come on over.
We've got this thing that we agree on.
It's wonderful.
And then they sort of become part of the movement.
And that's totally fine.
Like, let me give you an example.
Tulsi Gabbard.
I really like Tulsi Gabbard.
She's been on the show a bunch of times.
She's in the administration right now.
She's great.
So this is not a criticism.
I'm glad Tulsi Gabbard has had this awakening over the years.
I'm excited about that.
But so she comes over.
She's, you know,
she supported Bernie Sanders, ran the Sanders campaign in Hawaii back in the day, you know, not that long ago.
But she's had a transition.
She's come over and obviously is in the Trump administration now.
And so
we look at that and we say, hey, that's great.
We've brought someone from the left over to our side.
And that's great if that's what you're doing.
If you're convincing someone on the left.
to convert their ideas into something closer to your ideas.
That's a positive change.
You're widening the tent in a way that we all can support.
But really what Tulsi's doing in the government right now is she's being consistent with her old left-wing views on things like
stopping wars and not, you know, and being tough on intelligence issues with the government.
Yeah, because we woke up on that.
Well, because we've changed, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So,
and that's what I'm getting to here.
What seems to be happening is we're embracing things on the left, and it's not us changing their views into ours, it's us changing our views into theirs and then embracing some of those people.
That's not necessarily bad if we were wrong the whole time, right?
Yeah, but I think we were on the endless wars.
Yeah, I mean,
some of that I agree with, right?
The phrasing of it and maybe
the scope of it, maybe I'm not fully there.
But generally speaking, I think we've definitely overstepped our bounds at times.
A lot of times.
Yeah,
I don't think that's improper to say.
But I mean, again, I look at the way Trump handles it and it's different than what Tulsi's vision of this is.
I think
Trump is tough.
I'm not sure.
I think Trump is Ronald Reagan.
I'll pound you into the sand.
I will turn your sand into glass.
Don't screw with us.
But then he's like, but we're buddies right now.
So you don't want to be buddies?
We'll be buddies.
For example, this, his Syria move, I think is fascinating.
And
I think the right move.
I'm not 100% sure.
And I'm not 100% sure.
It's a very very complicated situation.
But like, I think it's worth taking a stab at this.
It's a new regime.
The guy used to be literally in Al-Qaeda.
I know.
However,
maybe he's changed.
I think the chances of it are low, but why not pull that lottery ticket?
Because the downside is what we already had.
So
give a shot.
You give the guy a handshake.
You say, hey, we're going to drop these sanctions.
We're going to give you a chance to not turn yourself yourself into the old regime.
And I think that's the right approach.
I think it's nobody is ever turned by lectures.
Yeah, or like opponents' lectures in particular.
Right.
I mean, you turn people through love and understanding and giving them the benefit of the doubt
until they prove you wrong.
It's a great point.
And I think it ties back to
my previous
way where we started this conversation, which is a lot of people in our movement are being won over to previous left-wing positions by new friends
and that is not bad in and of itself but we've done it a lot lately and i'm giving some better examples because um i changed not because of tulsi no no no no no you know but the movement and the reason why i liked tulsi at first um was I liked the fact that she was willing to stand up to her own machine and say, no, you guys are wrong.
You guys are going down this fascistic route, and I won't go there with you.
You are changing all the rules.
You're not who you said you were.
That's why I originally liked her because she'd take on her own people.
And that takes courage.
So it shows you something about her character.
Then when you get to know her, you realize, oh, we might disagree on taxes and everything else, but she loves the country.
She loves and reveres the Constitution of the United States.
If I can get you on the Bill of Rights, we don't have any differences too big to not be able to bridge.
And again, I don't think Tulsi is a problem.
No, I don't.
That's not what I'm saying.
But, you know, you have, let's, Tulsi is in DNI.
You have RFK Jr., HHS.
It's a big one, right?
Like, I mean, you know, you look at the way RFK Jr.
approaches,
I mean, he, look,
he's awfully close to someone who looked like Michael Bloomberg on public health issues.
This is something we, now he was
kind of a Republican in New York at one point, but, you know, obviously it was something that I know we oppose and the audience loudly opposed when he was trying to control what you eat.
Now, he has some, you know, I think there's some differences.
I'm not saying there aren't any.
But like, you know, going after,
you know, food companies and changing the way, that's a change for the, if that's what the right is.
That is a change for the right.
We were always in favor of people making their own choices and having companies be able to produce the products within some guidelines.
As long as they are not killing killing people or
harming people.
There are guidelines.
There's guardrails, of course, to all of this.
But generally speaking, ours were wide.
The left's were small.
And now we've taken the guy who was the voice of the left's view on those, RFK Jr., and put him in charge of the right's view of it.
Is that a good thing?
Maybe it's great.
Maybe he's been completely right this whole time, and we should have been approaching things that way.
I think if our society was not getting sicker and sicker and sicker,
then
there's reasons for all this stuff, but like we should, we we should notice those things.
You know, he's a really, I think, a big example of that because that is a, it's a massive change to the way that we've we've done these things.
Another one is trade.
Peter Navarro ran as a Democrat over and over and over and over again
on these trade ideas.
Now, Donald Trump has been consistent with these trade ideas since the day he was in the public eye.
There's nobody who has been more outspoken on the anti-trade up until recently than me and you.
You're still outspoken on it.
I think we have to give it a shot because we're behind the eight ball here.
Yeah, I mean,
I don't like the policy.
I don't agree.
But
again, it's separate from whether each individual one of these is right.
There's a lot of these.
And over time,
I think you'd acknowledge it is going to add up to a completely different formula.
It might be the right thing for us to do.
But isn't this...
But we should notice each one of these changes, I think.
Isn't this, and I think you're right on that, but isn't this the same as?
I mean, you're not the same guy I met 30 years ago.
Totally.
We all change.
Yeah, we all change, and that's good.
And we should notice when we change because then we learn from, wait, why did I just change?
Did I change for the right reasons?
Or did something happen to me?
Is somebody around me that's changing this?
You, you do.
We do have to pay attention to the change.
But
I think change is good.
It can be.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, if it's, if it's, if it's well thought out if it is still built on principles um and an evolving understanding not of truth but uh how to get to the truth
like i for instance the foreign war thing i just know right now what we've been doing is not working it's not going to make the world safer ever ever ever ever it's not um however sometimes it has obviously in previous wars um but yes I think the meddling of everybody, trying to control everything.
We can't control everything.
Yeah, and this, it just doesn't, it's not going to work.
And it making it's making things worse.
Now,
pulling all the way back and saying, you know what, we don't, you know, we don't want to be involved in the rest of the world.
That doesn't sound good to me.
Yeah, and I don't think that's what Trump is doing.
Right.
And it, but it might be the right thing.
I just know, I know for sure that what we had been doing doesn't work.
And I really believed in what we were doing.
Well, I believed in what I thought we were doing.
You know what I mean?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
And so we have to make changes and changes in almost everything.
And as long as it's logical, as long as you have really thought things out, as long as you're not just conforming, you know, the real, the really scary thing is when people begin to conform for any other reason other than logic.
I've reasoned this out.
I've asked critical questions.
And I'm sorry.
I'd love more information that might change me out of this position, but this is where I find myself out, find myself at.
And even if I'm uncomfortable, I have to stand here because this is my current understanding of what's best.
You know, and as long as you keep an open mind and you're constantly seeking to have a better understand of deeper truths, then
I think you're fine.
But, But one of the things that we're going to face, especially with AI, is all of a sudden we're going to conform because Google would give you page after page after page after page of different information.
Chat GPT gives you one answer.
And you just assume it's right.
They don't give you anything.
This is going to be a fascinating development in our society.
And it's already there.
You Googled and you had to go and reason and look at different things and everything else.
This is one answer.
I know it's right because it came from AI.
Very dangerous.
All right, back in just a second.
I guess the thing is, just the part I guess we really agree on is question everything, always.
Be diligent.
Aging is inevitable.
I mean, just look at Stu.
But suffering,
is it?
Yeah, you're getting older, Stu.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
You're getting your knees sound like bubble wrap when you walk around.
Pain is common.
You know, it's normal.
It's really not with you.
You should see a doctor.
You don't look very well.
But anyway,
you weren't designed to spend your golden years curled up on the couch watching life pass you by.
You were meant to move, to build, and to live with purpose.
And that doesn't mean that you have to be, you know, 65, 70 years old to feel that way.
I know a lot of people who are 40 and feel this way.
Life's tough, and it takes a toll.

Back, we'll we'll be right back.
Honey punches the votes for all.
Today, para sabermás.
Stu and I still still
talking during the press about something.
I don't know.
What's your favorite news?
Ben and Jerry's flavor was one of the topics.
No, he's talking about, you know, he's been talking about how,
you know, it just, I don't even know what the movement is sometimes.
And I agree with you on that because I think we haven't settled.
We haven't decided what the movement is yet.
It's being decided right now.
At least
for the upcoming future.
It was interesting to talk to J.D.
Vance about that, who's a guy who obviously has probably the most inner path of crafting that future post-Trump,
who's obviously term-limited.
So you have a situation where he's going to be likely the nominee in 2028, certainly the overwhelming favorite going in, unless something goes really poorly in this administration.
So you have a situation.
It's interesting to see how that works out.
Yeah, and he has a pretty strong ideological take on this stuff, right?
Like
he knows what his worldview is.
And he's a great communicator.
I mean, he's really good in that interview.
He's never tripped up, even by the aggressively opposition press, has no problem with them whatsoever.
I mean, he didn't take the $20,000 pyramid pass.
He didn't.
On the question, which I thought, well, that's brave of you.
Yeah.
I mean, $20,000, what is that even, is that even money these days?
Come on.
If they put the $20,000 pyramid on the air right now, people would laugh it off in episode one.
Well, I can buy a t-shirt now with with tariffs.
It's an interesting time.
And I feel like this is the most interesting types of conversation.
What's the future of the country going to look like?
What's the future of the conservative movement going to look like?
It's being hammered out as we speak.
Kind of fascinating.
Yeah.
It'll be interesting to see how this all plays out.
Very interesting to see how it all turns out.
Thank you so much for listening.
If you missed any of the show today, we had J.D.
Vance on with a fascinating conversation with that.
How far left will the left go?
