How are you?
Thank you very much.

Hello, America.
Welcome to Friday.
We, well,
the confirmation hearings are going on, and
I watched and listened to them mainly so you didn't have to, and I can't take it anymore.
I can't take it.
I got a lot to say about the senators and the confirmation hearings.
I've got a lot to say.
But first, I just want to show you what happened yesterday to Cash Patel, RFK Jr., and Tulsi.
We begin there in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about Cozy Earth.
So my 9 to 5 is coming on this program and talking to you.
That's my day job.
My 5 to 9,
meaning my 5 p.m.
to 9 a.m., is my night job.
And my night job is just to be with my family and just to be as comfortable as I can be and keep my house, my castle, you know, and everybody just kind of wants to, you know, be on the couch at night and talk and play games and whatever.
That's the important part of my day.
That should be your important part of the day.

Hello, Stu.
Glenn, how are you?
Oh,
oh my gosh, I am so good.
Welcome to Friday.
Oh, it's good to be here on Friday.
I only have
really
one thing to say today,
and that's because I threw out everything else because it took me about two hours to just gather my thoughts and jot them down because I wanted to be searingly accurate.
So the rest of the show, we're just going to kind of wing because I wanted to make sure
when I give you my opinion on what's happening,
it's actually
very clear
what I believe.
So that's coming up in just a little while.
The rest of the show, we have
today, yesterday, last night, for Blaze TV subscribers, one of my favorite podcasts.
because this is something I've been interested in as a kid, The Shroud of Turin.
We had the exact linen copy of the Shroud of Turin in the studio, plus
one of the leading experts on it.
And
if you don't know what the Shroud of Turin is, First of all, it's not a Catholic artifact.
That's what people have said in the past, but now evangelicals and everybody else are starting to say, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
There's some new information on this.
This thing is the shroud of Christ, they believe.
New data has been released with something that is better than carbon dating.
I can't remember what it's called, but it's better than carbon dating.
And it looks at the fabric, dates it.
It's 2,000 years old.
And what's more is there are spores and pollen, et cetera, et cetera, on and in the fabric
that
only are found in Jerusalem in around April, in the spring.
I mean, that's a pretty elaborate fraud.
Plus, all of the bloodstains, the things that science has found about this, I think this is the shroud of Christ.
And you'll have to make up your own mind, but we're going to talk about that later and play some pieces of it.
We have
Jeremiah Johnston on with us to talk about it in hour number three today.
You don't want to miss this.
Don't.
People say it can't be done.
It's not the shroud of Jesus.
It's the greatest shroud of Jesus you've ever seen.
People said, I can't believe it.
Anyway, so that's coming up.
But let's start with, let's start with some
beautiful people in the Senate, shall we?
Let's start with Cash Patel first.
Here's Cash Patel.
testifying in front of Congress yesterday.
Cut one.
Senator, this may be one of the scenarios that most uniquely qualifies me to take command at the FBI.
Having been the victim of government overreach and a weaponized system of justice and law enforcement, I know what it feels like to have the full weight of the United States government barreling down on you.
And as the Biden Inspector General determined those activities by the FBI and DOJ were wholly improper and not predicated upon law and facts, I will ensure, if confirmed, that no American is subjected to that kind of torment, to that kind of cost, financially and personally.
And most importantly, I will make sure that no American is subjected to death threats like I was
and subjected to moving their residences like I was because of government overreach, because of leaks of information about my personal status.
If confirmed as FBI director, Mr.
Chairman, you have my commitment that no one in this country will feel that pain.
Wow, why is he on such a rant here?
He's going to weaponize the government.
Is this just all about payback?
Did you hear what he just said he went through?
Yeah,
it's not about payback.
It's about justice, making sure anyone that was involved in that kind of activity with anyone.
no longer works for the United States government.
And if they broke any laws, they go to jail.
I don't know about you.
I kind of like the idea of jail for some people.
You know what I mean?
Not everybody, but the guilty.
No matter if they're the poorest person in the world or it's George Soros,
I don't really care.
You break a law, you go to jail.
But he's on your side.
I don't care.
Go to jail.
That's what he's trying to restore.
Now,
let's go to cut two.
He was called out on the January 6th pardons by Senator Durbin.
Here it is.
Was President Donald Trump wrong to give blanket clemency to the January 6th defendants?
Thank you, Ranking Member.
A couple of things on that.
One, the power of the presidential pardon is just that, the president.
Alignment, I concede he has the authority.
I'm asking, was he wrong to do it?
And as we discussed in our private meeting, Senator, I have always rejected any violence against law enforcement, and I I have including in that group specifically addressed any violence against law enforcement on January 6th.
And I do not agree with the commutation of any sentence of any individual who committed violence against law enforcement.
So do you think that America is safer because these 1,600 people have been given an opportunity to come out of serving their sentences and live in our communities again?
Senator, I have not looked at all 1,600 individual cases.
I have always advocated for imprisoning those that cause harm to our law enforcement and civilian communities.
I also believe America is not safer because President Biden's commutation of a man who murdered two FBI agents, Agent Kohler's and Williams' family, deserve better than to have the man that point-blank range fired a shotgun into their heads and murdered them, released from prison.
So it goes both ways.
Okay.
All right.
I think you're pretty clear.
I like that answer.
I love that answer.
So what do you take as a part of the push,
trying to stir things up on the left, saying that, I mean, he took a different position than Trump on that.
Oh, my gosh.
You mean people are different?
They're not zombies.
That's true, though.
Not common.
The president's
presidential pardons are just that.
His pardons.
I'm not for releasing people who have ever,
you know, harmed cops.
I'm not for that.
I don't think the president is for that.
Well,
he did commute sentences of people who were the violent offenders in there.
He could do everything.
But I'd like to look at each individual case.
But he did all of them.
So we don't have to look at each individual case.
Well,
here's
my feeling on this.
I've already expressed this over and over again.
You cannot say that the system was corrupt for some
and then just allow that corrupt system to sentence and put people away that might have been guilty.
You can't do that.
We never do that.
If there is a corrupt prosecution and a corrupt judge or whatever and it's found out, it's not only that person that is...
is pardoned and you throw the case out and you can't try it again.
Sorry.
It was corrupt.
And then you're supposed to go on and see, when did this happen?
Did this team do anything else?
And if you start looking and you see that this is a pattern, you have to throw it all out.
Okay.
It's not the president's fault.
It is the prosecution's fault.
It is the DOJ's fault.
I think that's a very defensible point.
It's also, I would argue, probably, I mean, he hasn't explicitly said this, but Donald Trump's point, why he did all 1600.
That is not Cash Patel's point.
Cash Patel is saying, I don't agree with any of those commutations.
So those are two different positions.
He didn't say that.
He said,
I don't agree with any commutation of anyone.
But that's a blanket statement.
I don't really care anyway.
I'm just curious because I think they're two slightly different points.
I would say they're kind of representative of our two points here.
My point is more consistent with Cash Patel, I think, on this.
And yours is maybe more consistent with Trump.
I don't think it's a big deal that they disagree, as you point out.
It's interesting what the left was trying to do with that, though.
What are they trying to do?
They're trying to get that little wedge of separation, right?
They're trying to say, hey, Don, this guy doesn't agree with you.
You know, they're trying to, and I, look,
he doesn't need,
because the whole, it's funny because they want to separate them and say, hey,
they don't agree.
At the same point of time of trying to make the point that the only reason he has this job is he's a loyalist that is an automatron robot.
Yeah.
Which is like, you don't get both of those things.
You can't.
They'll try.
They'll try.
They only can have both of them.
Touchdown, either direction.
Right, right.
Which I think you would be for with the Eagles.
So don't, please don't get on your high voice.
Okay, so
the thing that drives me nuts is,
and this is the point I couldn't get past with any of them.
Excuse me, Durbin.
Hang on just a second.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
You're worried about the safety of the American people because people who, in your words, not mine, rioted and tried to burn the Republic down,
you're worried about them, but all of the riots from BLM, burning Minneapolis almost to the ground, you didn't have a problem with that one.
I can't take it.
I can't take it.
And I don't think the American people,
I just, they don't get the Durbans of the world and the Democrats don't understand
what just happened.
America changed on election day.
This isn't just a, you know what, we're going to, we're going to switch and go to with another party.
That's not what happened.
People didn't vote for the Republicans.
They voted for Donald Trump's agenda.
They voted for massive change.
And they're playing the same game.
And I'm sorry, but it's not going to work, dude.
It's just not going to work.
And it'll come and bite them in the ass like nobody's.
Because look,
whenever you try to con people,
it's going to come out.
It's going to come out.
All of their
illegalities, everything that they tried to do, is any of that really hidden anymore?
Do you really think that Donald Trump's going to let these
secrets lay secret?
Let's go to cut three.
Trump recited the Pledge of Allegiance, then we went to a studio and recorded it, mastered it, digitized it, and put it out as a song now releasing exclusively on the war room.
We,
we,
we.
If you had nothing to do with it, Mr.
Patel, why did you tell Steve Bannon and all his listeners that you did?
That's why it says we, as you highlighted.
Yeah, and you're part of the we, right?
When you say we, that includes you, doesn't it, Mr.
Patel?
Not in every instance.
Well,
that's new.
So when you said we...
Stop.
Is it?
Is it?
Maybe I identify as we.
Really?
You mean these words have meaning?
Good God almighty.
This is Adam Schiff
talking to Cash Patel about January 6th like he has any credibility at all.
None.
Zero.
It's the royal we, is it not?
It is the royal we.
Well, it's whatever Cash Patel decides it is, quite honestly.
Continue.
You're not allowed to ask.
Yeah.
That's new.
So when you said we, you didn't really mean you.
Is that your testimony?
Not unless you have a new definition for the word we.
Oh, okay.
I always thought we included the person who pronounced our.
I always thought them, they referred to a group, but it doesn't.
So true.
I can't even read news stories anymore.
I know.
They say they, and I'm like, who are they talking about?
Right.
And they're talking about one person who says they're a they.
Right.
Like, that is not, that's just.
I wish Cash would have, I mean, he's, he's too, he's too cool to do this.
He's too smart to do this, but I would have unleashed on shift.
Really?
Because I thought, I'm sorry.
They told me.
Who is they?
Well, that's how I referred to myself.
And I was talking to myself.
You have a problem with them, they, sir?
You have a problem with we?
I call myself we.
What's the problem with that?
Now, it is, it's not a logical answer, but it certainly is worth shoving right down his throat.
We come up with words as a society to describe things.
Yes.
Right?
You've done everything you can to
destroy the meaning of almost every word.
That's what's so that we always talk about, oh, well, it's not scientific or it's not, you know, reality.
All that's true, but you're destroying the way we communicate with each other.
When you say we,
what do you mean by we?
I mean they.
Okay, okay.
Thank you.
Okay, they are.
But it's true.
You destroy that and you have nothing.
You have nothing.
How can you listen to a show?
You can't listen to a show because you can't understand what people are saying.
When you go to a court of law, this is what they try to do in court cases all the time.
Well, that word doesn't really mean that.
That's not what the founders meant there.
This is what they always do.
They're manipulating language.
You've said this a hundred times.
Control the language, control the argument.
Yep.
And if you do control that language, you do control the argument.
And
we're starting to stop that final.
Yes, yes.
So,
sorry, Adam Schiff.
Schiff.
We don't like it.
Me don't like it either.
All right, let me tell you about Chase Medical.
No better feeling than the one you get when you're fully prepared for something and you just go about your business.
Knowing that it is there when you need it, if you need it.
I feel this way about emergency medicines as well.
This was the hardest thing as somebody who prepares for emergencies.
The hardest thing to do is medications.
What do you do?
If something happens, supply chain, whatever, you're on vacation,
you're camping up in the mountains, which I don't recommend.
There are big cats that eat you.
Anyway, you're camping out in the mountains and you need medication.
Well, have peace of mind because you have Jace Medical.
Jace case, simple, reliable emergency supply of life-saving medications to put control in your hand.
There's no way to prepare for literally everything that could go wrong, but there's lots of ways to prepare for everything that you know could go wrong.
This isn't about fear, this is about responsibility.
Being prepared is the best way to protect your family and your future.
Don't wait for the next headline to wake you up.

10 seconds, station ID.
Let me do one more on Cash Patel.
Cut four, please.
Before I call on Senator Lee, could he just answer the question if he
said that the FBI headquarters, where they investigate cybercrime and terrorism, should be shut down and opened as a deep state
as a museum?
Did he say that the headquarters should be shut down?
Mr.
Chair.
He is asking to be head of the FBI, and he said that their headquarters should be shut down.
Mr.
Chair, parliamentary inquiry.
You got anything you want to say, Mr.
Patel, before I go on to Senator Lee?
Simply this.
If the best attacks on me are going to be false accusations and grotesque mischaracterizations, the only thing this body is doing is defeating the credibility of the men and women at the FBI.
I stood with them here in this country, in every theater of war we have.
I was on the ground in service of this nation.
And any accusations leveled against me that I would somehow put political bias before before the Constitution are grotesquely unfair.
And I will have you reminded that I have been endorsed by over 300,000 law enforcement officers to become the next director of the FBI.
Let's ask them.
Mr.
Chairman, I am quoting his own words from September of 2024.
It is his own words.
It is not some conspiracy.
It is what Mr.
Patel actually said
himself.
Absolutely.
Listen to Amy Klomachar and her conspiracy theory trying to quote something that I don't have access to right now.
That's a conspiracy theory.
She should be shut down, maybe silenced on the internet for that.
Listen to her.
She's crazy.
Holy cow.
This is Glenn Beck.
Hypocrisy.
All right, let me tell you about Lear Capital.
Somebody's got to be the wet blanket, and it usually comes down to me because Stu likes his blankies.
Great changes are happening in our country right now.
Great changes.
More are coming.
But, you know, it's not like bad government, you know, can just be mopped up real quick.
And bad government can come back if we're not very careful.
We have to be proactive in everything and especially our financial future.
The government, I don't know if you've seen, but
some of the things, the moves the Fed is making,
really bother me.
We go up in interest rates.
We will not be able to afford our debt, let alone your debt, the national debt.
That's the fastest way to collapse our dollar.
Gold is, a lot of people say it may be the best performing asset in 2025.
Lear Capital has a report, $4,200 gold.
It's free.
All you have to do is call them at 800-957-GOLD.
800-957-GOLD.
Here's what I want you to do.
Just 10% of what you have saved.
Please put it in something that is solid and you can hold it in your hand.
Also, call them, ask how you can get $15,000 in free gold or silver.
It's 800-957-GOLD.
Countdown to the next aviation disaster, the documentary available part of Blaze TV at blazetv.com/slash button.
Elon tweeted it.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
We're glad you're here.
I want to take you through some of the testimony yesterday, some of the audio,
and then I'm going to give you the big picture view of all of it and what's really going on and what I think needs to be said in America.
That's coming up in just a second, but let's continue to go through the audio and what was said yesterday at these hearings.
It was Cash Patel, which we just went over.
Then it was Tulsi Gabbard and RFK.
And I can't.
Let me take you through it gently here.
Cut one of Tulsi.
Cut five, please.
Before I close, I want to warn the American people who are watching at home.
You may hear lies and smears in this hearing that'll challenge my loyalty to and my love for our country.
Those who oppose my nomination imply that I am loyal to something or someone other than God.
my own conscience, and the Constitution of the United States, accusing me of being Trump's puppet, Putin's puppet, Assad's puppet, a guru's puppet, Modi's puppet, not recognizing the absurdity of simultaneously being the puppet of five different puppet masters.
The same tactic was used against President Trump and failed.
The American people elected President Trump with a decisive victory and mandate for change.
The fact is, what truly unsettles my political opponents is I refuse to be their puppet.
For too long, faulty, inadequate, or weaponized intelligence have led to costly failures and the undermining of our national security and God-given freedoms enshrined in the Constitution.
The American people elected Donald Trump as their president not once but twice, and yet the FBI and intelligence agencies were politicized by his opponents to undermine his presidency and falsely portray him as a puppet of Putin.
Title I of FISA was used illegally to obtain a warrant to spy on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page using a Clinton campaign-funded false dossier as their so-called evidence.
Biden campaign advisor Tony Blinken was the impetus for the 51 former senior intelligence officials' letter dismissing Hunter Biden's laptop as disinformation specifically to help Biden win the election.
Former DNI James Clapper lied to this committee in 2013, denying the existence of programs that facilitated the mass collection of millions of Americans' phone and internet records, yet was never held accountable.
Under John Brennan's leadership, the CIA abused its power to spy on Congress, to dodge oversight, lied about doing it until he was caught.
and yet has never been held responsible.
Under Biden, the FBI abused its power for political reasons to try to surveil Catholics who attend traditional Latin Mass, labeling them as quote-unquote radical traditionalist Catholics.
Personally, just 24 hours after I criticized Kamala Harris and her nomination, I was placed on a secret domestic terror watch list called Quiet Skies.
Sadly, there are more examples.
The bottom line is this, this must end.
President Trump's re-election is a clear mandate from the American people to break this cycle of failure, end the weaponization and politicization of the intelligence community, and begin to restore trust in those who've been charged with the critical task of securing our nation.
She is very, very clear.
I have a lot to say about Tulsi coming up, but let me just go now to the questioning.
This is Michael Bennett, Senator Michael Bennett, asking her about Edward Snowden, Cut 22.
Do you believe, as the chairman of this this committee believes, as the vast majority of members of our intelligence agencies believe, that Edward Snowden was a traitor to the United States of America?
Senator, have confirmed that the government is not afraid of
the roads.
This is not a moment
to media.
It is not a moment to propagate theories, conspiracy theories,
or attacks on journalism in the United States.
This is when you you need to answer the questions of the people whose votes you're asking for to be confirmed
as the chief intelligence officer of this nation.
As my colleague said, this is not about you.
It's about the people that serve the intelligence agencies of the United States.
Is Edward Snowden a traitor to the United States of America?
That is not a hard question to answer when the stakes are this high.
Senator, as someone who has to say,
yes or no,
is Edward Snowden a traitor to the United States of America?
As someone who has
disgraceful, I understand how to do that.
Absolute disgrace.
No point of this at all.
There's no point of any of these hearings at this point.
There's no
in Michael Bennett.
Well, I mean, he is, he's, I don't, I don't know anything about Michael Bennett other than I disagree with him greatly, but he, the way he talks, he just sounds like the dumbest senator.
You know,
my apologies to the senator from Hawaii, but
one of the dumbest senators.
But he's not interested in an answer here.
And if I could just point out,
you were there in Congress before
Edward Snowden released what he released.
Now, let me ask you, the reason why it's hard to say, are you a traitor or are you a patriot, is because he did release very dangerous information about the United States and what we were doing.
But what we were doing was against the Constitution.
So is he a traitor that put us in jeopardy or is he a patriot for alerting people that we are breaking our own rules?
Now, if you as a senator, especially one on an oversight committee, would have done your damn job, you wouldn't have had the problem of Edward Snowden because you would have known, or did you?
You would have known that we were breaking the Constitution, that we were doing things we were not supposed to do.
It is your job as a senator on oversight to root these things out before they become a problem.
And I believe Edward Snowden tried to go to members of the oversight committee and tried to blow the whistle and none of you guys wanted to hear him.
So then what do you do after that?
It seems to me that the problem is in the oversight committee, not just the intelligence
apparatus.
It seems to me too, Tulsi tried to make a pretty clear line here of
I, he did, he committed crimes.
Yes.
Edward Snowden committed crimes.
And while I think like what we
what we discovered from Edward Snowden was really important,
I think like quite clearly there was illegal activity going on and all sorts of cracks in the constitutional protections of American citizens were discovered through that process.
Like, I think it's also sensible to not try to necessarily encourage every single person who thinks they're a brilliant whistleblower to start doing such things.
Like, I think, you know, the Snowden case is kind of unique.
I think a lot of the other quote-unquote whistleblowers have come out with stuff that honestly, you know, I think shouldn't have been released, or
they're no heroes.
Snowden, I think, like, did really deliver information
that we needed.
And I think
if it had gone through the normal processes, it would have been better.
But at some point, as you know, if the normal processes don't work, there are things that rise to the level the American people need to know about.
We needed to know that
the American government was doing this to us.
And that's why they're trying to stop Tulsi, because there are many, many more things that they're doing that we don't know about.
I'm sure.
Sure.
We are scratching at the surface.
That's why Tulsi and Cash and quite frankly, RFK are so important.
Listen to RFK, his testimony, and the exchange with Bernie Sanders.
It's unhinged.
I'm going to make America healthier than other countries in the world right now.
Will you guarantee do what every other major country does?
That's a simple question.
And by the way, Bernie,
you know, the problem of corruption is not just in the federal agencies.
It's in Congress, too.
Almost all the members of this panel are accepting, including yourself, are accepting millions of dollars from the pharmaceutical industry.
Oh, no.
And protecting their interests.
Oh,
I thought that that would come.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I ran for president like you.
I got millions and millions of contributions.
They did not come from the executives, not one nickel of PAC money from the pharmaceutical industry.
They came from workers.
In 2020, you were the single largest
because I have
contributions from workers all over this country.
Workers,
not a nickel from corporate dollars.
You were the single largest exceptional pharmaceutical dollars.
No, from workers in 1.5 million.
Yeah, out of 200 million.
All right, but
you are not.
Only 10%.
Only 10%.
Okay, look, Bernie Sanders, and here's the real rub of this.
Bernie Sanders and RFK agree on the pharmaceutical companies largely.
Largely.
Largely.
I mean, Bernie Sanders has made a career at bashing pharmaceutical companies.
It's like the only thing he was known for for the first half of his career.
Correct.
So why all of a sudden does he have a problem with RFK,
who is almost in lockstep with him on pharmaceutical companies?
So weird.
I can't even.
It's hard to keep track anymore where these people stand on stuff.
It's not true.
It's not honest.
It's not true.
It's not honest.
And that's got to stop.
That's why these guys are being pushed up against the wall.
And everything that they're saying about them is ridiculous.
It's ridiculous because
it's what Democrats are supposedly standing for.
You're supposed to stand for the little guy.
You're supposed to stand against the big government agencies that are crushing people.
But strangely, they're not.
And the American people no longer believe the bull crap that's coming out of your mouth and the mouth of the mainstream.
It's not even mainstream anymore.
That they are the alternative media.
They're the state-run media.
That's all they are.
And nobody believes it anymore.
I'm going to give you my
full and very clear opinion on what happened in Washington and what's been happening in the last couple of weeks in just a minute.
Stand by.
Just the way you're teasing this,
this is going to be a barn burner.
No, it's just, it's just
very clear.
I can just see it.
It's very clear.
I can see it in your eyes.
I can hear it in your voice.
I can't wait for this one.
Okay.
All right.
Let me tell you about real Estate Agents I Trust.
If you do the job right the first time, you don't have that irritating hassle of having to do it over and over again because you did it the wrong way first, right?
When it comes to buying and selling a home, you don't have a second chance.
It's got to be done the right time.
Over a decade ago, I formed a company called RealEstateAgentsITrust.com, and it exists as a way to make sure that you get the job done right the first time.
I didn't know anything.
I don't know how to interview a real estate agent.
I had no idea what the best practices were or why some real estate agents are better than the others.
I had no idea.
I had no idea that the whole way of selling a house is different today than it was 20 years ago.
Real estate agents I trust, this is a company that I started after working with the 500 best real estate agents in the country, according to the Wall Street Journal, and learn from them.
We learned how to find those real estate agents and then recommend them to you.
This is something I don't charge you for.
All you have to do is tell us where you are, where you're moving from, where you're moving to, whether it's across the street or across the country.
We will help you find the real estate agent you can trust.
Realestateagents I trust.com.
That's realestate agentsitrust.com.

Nope.
I mean, probably not, right?
I mean, I, I, and I, and I understand that.
That's okay.
I hate it.

I understand that, but that's why you need books.
Because if you go with books, you just knock it out now and then you don't have to think about it at all.
You get the flowers, like the quickie book, for example, is one thing that they have.

They're going to last way longer.
This is the only thing I get my wife.
Every single time I'm going to get her flowers, I go to Books because I know they're going to give us the best ones and she's going to love them.
Valentine's Day is February 14th, just a couple weeks away.
In between this and now and then is the big game.

All right, welcome to the Linebeck program.
Glad you're here.
Thank you so much.
By the way, if you haven't seen, what was that commercial, that the people that you're doing commercial for that movie?
It's an Angel Studio movie.
Brave the Dark.
Brave the Dark.
If you haven't seen Brave the Dark yet, go see it this weekend.
It's really good.
Really, really, really, really good.
Yeah, in theaters now from Angel Studios.
Yeah.
You can get tickets at angel.com slash Stew if you like it.
Whenever I hear, oh, it's, you know, it's a non-Hollywood movie, I still I'm gunshy.
Yeah,
aren't you?
Uh-huh.
Still gun shy.
Is it not one of those?
Is it?
Because we dealt with multiple decades of terrible
message movies from the right.
Yeah.
And this isn't.
This is just a great movie.
Yeah.
And Angel has pretty much solved this.
Like every one of their movies is, it's going to be good.
It's going to be high quality.
The acting is going to be good.
The story is going to be good.
The dialogue is going to be good.
You know, like it's a good movie going in.
Yeah.
And both the actors, the lead and
what, second lead, I don't remember what they call them.
I don't watch the Academy Awards, but the supporting actor.
Yes, best supporting actor.
Yeah.
They're both great in this.
And the great story, too.
Yeah, great story.
And a true story.
I mean, we should get this guy on.
The guy died, but
the kid that, you know, is
it doesn't matter.
That's not in the movie.
It's not in the movie that he dies.
He died just recently.
You're saying the
teacher.
The teacher bailed the kid out.
Right.
The student is alive, and
I would love to talk to him because this teacher was amazing.
Changed this kid's life.
And changed it.
It didn't even realize what was going on in this kid's life.
You don't find out what's happening to this kid's life.
It's really a great way they lay this whole thing out.
And when you find out in the end what really happened, you're like, oh my
gosh.
And it's just because of this teacher that he survived, literally survived.
You ever think of yourself like, who would you be in one of these movies?
Like if you were, if you, oh, yeah.
I think
I'm the guy like about 20 minutes in that sees the kid having the problems and just makes a snarky remark and then is never seen again in the movie.
No, it deals with those people, they're seen in the movie all the way through.
That's me.
I'm sorry.
I don't help anybody.
I don't bail anybody out, but I'm also not the kid with the real problems.
I'm just the guy making the snarky remarks from the side.
And moving on with my life, you know, my life and my
entire career.
So
thank you, snark.
All right.
Brave the dark.
Make sure you go and see it.
It's really good.
All right.
Back in just a minute with a few opinions.
This is Glenn Beck.
Down the road where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.
Stand your ground when times get tight.
Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is
the Glenbeck program.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
And the confirmation hearings, I, for one, have had enough.
And so I have a message to those senators and to those who are testifying and to the American people.
And I've been working on it for about three hours now, and I've got a lot to say.
So we're going to get to that in 60 seconds.
But sometimes, in the service of your community, you can find yourself in a situation where you're not going to get home.
Such was the case for the police officer and canine handler Jacob Russell Chaffins.
He was fatally shot while serving a warrant for a domestic violence situation.
Jacob was passionate about his job, his family, his coworkers, and all the people in his community.
And he is missed deeply
from those who were left behind.
He leaves behind his wife, Savannah, and little daughter, Paisley.
When the Tunnel to Towers Foundation learned about this fallen hero and his family, they stepped in immediately to see what they could do to help.
And because of the generosity of people just like you, maybe you, they were able to give Savannah and Paisley the gift of a new home mortgage-free.
This is the kind of thing that the Tunnel to Towers Foundation does.
Their motto is to do good and never forget.
Would you help Tunnel to Towers lift these heroes up and their families?
Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at t2t.
That's tthenumber2t.org.
Do it now.
Alrighty.
I got a few things to say.
Let's start with
who is having a hard time getting confirmed.
Okay, let's just go through the names here for a second.
What's really being discussed here.
Who's under the gun?
Well, let's start with Pete Hagseth.
Okay.
What is he going to do?
He's going into the Department of Defense.
He is looking for those weasels that have been changing everything in our Defense Department, has been
culling anybody who disagreed with Joe Biden, anybody who thought Donald Trump might be right.
They got rid of all of those people.
Then they committed another atrocity, I believe, for our military, demanded that you get the COVID shot or you were out.
It was crimes
incompetence, maybe crimes of incompetence in Afghanistan at least.
They were trying to control the message, control the military through DEI.
So
Pete Hegseth is a target.
Why?
Because he's going to find out what's going on, he's going to run investigations, and he's going to stop it.
Okay,
next,
FBI DOJ.
So
what is he going to do?
What is Cash Patel going to do when he gets in to the FBI?
Well, he's going to investigate crimes, the weaponization
of the FBI, also the way that they protected those in Congress or those in power, i.e.
the Hunter Biden laptop, i.e.
the FISA courts.
So he's looking for bad guys while also trying to clean it up because you can't clean it up if you don't know who the bad guys are.
Then you have the director of national intelligence and Tulsi Gabber.
She's under fire.
Why?
Well, she needs to go in and expose all of the black ops and those leaking lies to the press and shoring up the lies for members of Congress and
rooting out the darkness between the members of Congress, the White House, the military-industrial complex, and the intelligence community.
What is RFK?
Why is he being challenged?
Because he's going to expose the lies of COVID, the corruption, and corruption with pharmaceutical companies.
He's going after and breaking that all up.
These are all big businesses, you know, big businesses for congressmen and senators and the government.
This is the center of public-private partnerships, okay?
And they all involve people who want to go in and find out the root.
of what's really going wrong here.
So they're all under attack.
But what did the Democrats say is the existential threat to the Republic and all mankind?
What was it?
Global warming.
Global warming.
Yeah.
Global warming.
Guess who just, whose nomination just flew by?
Doug Bergham.
Bergamentum, yeah.
Sure did go fly by.
Doug Bergham.
That is weird.
You'd think for Interior, the Department of the Interior be a concern for a bunch of people who think think global warming is the biggest concern.
What he's going to do is he's going to reverse a lot of the things and make coal, gas, oil exploration okay for many parts of the interior of the United States.
He sailed through.
Now, how does he sail through if he's just going to be
his role will be to destroy the opposition to oil, gas, and coal?
Notice what he's not going to be doing.
He's not going to be investigating the government.
So
forget about what we said about the biggest threat.
No, no, the biggest threat seems to be the people who are looking into corruption.
So
I was a little outraged.
I've been a little outraged all week.
And I want to clarify things and make very, very clear.
We're talking about threats to our democracy.
That's what they said.
And I believe that to be true.
We're talking about the rule of law, right?
But
let's actually look at what is being said in these so-called confirmation hearings.
On day one,
with Bernie Sanders and RFK,
America's favorite millionaire socialist was railing about onesies.
Onesies.
What, that's the great moral crisis facing this country while we teeter on the edge of war, while the economy is in free fall, while we have corruption all throughout our government with COVID and pharmaceuticals.
Onesies
is the thing you're bringing up?
While the very institutions he claims to protect
have all been turned into political weapons.
Then when RFK Jr.
had the audacity, the unmitigated gall to point out that this self-styled champion of the working class was the single largest recipient of pharmaceutical money in 2020, what happened?
What happened?
the old man went nuts
I knew this was gonna come up in my socialist dreams what did he do
he did what they all do
he had to silence RFK
He had to have him dismissed.
He needed to discredit him.
He needed people not to hear what RFK was saying.
The same man who has spent decades raging against corporate greed suddenly has nothing but caveats and excuses when the money was going his way.
Now,
I don't think it was, but let's just say that was a lie about Bernie Sanders.
Let's just say that RFK just made that up.
Okay.
What had to happen?
Well, Bernie Sanders needed to be able to clarify, right?
He needed to be able to say, that's not true, and here's why it's not true.
But he couldn't.
Okay, he just had to shout it over what RFK was saying.
He had to silence and talk over RFK to stop the accusation.
He needed to defend himself and explain.
That's what would happen in a fair system.
But no one on the receiving end can silence the senators.
No one on the receiving end can talk over them
and say that's a lie and get the control of the room back so they can set the record straight.
The senators can.
See, the questions are akin to, when did you stop beating your wife?
And I think that was an actual question for Pete Hegseth last week, was it not?
When did you stop beating your wife?
These hearings are not advise and consent as the Constitution requires.
They are smear, destroy, and delay.
Let's move on to Cash Patel.
The man accused, without any evidence, of course, of planning to weaponize the DOJ and FBI.
That's laughable.
Who's accusing him of that?
The very senators who have spent the last 20 plus years weaponizing the entire government against the American people.
The same people who oversaw the raids on journalists, the spying on sitting presidents, the suppression of political opponents, the imprisonment of pro-life activists while violent rioters just walked free.
These are the people who have the audacity to clutch their pearls about the politicization politicization of law enforcement.
The hypocrisy is so thick, I almost choked to death on it.
And then there's Tulsi Gabbard.
God bless Tulsi Gabbard.
When she finally got a chance to speak, she laid it out plain.
Corruption in our intelligence community is not a theory.
It's a fact.
It's a matter of record.
It's not even in dispute.
But did anybody talk about that?
No.
Smear, silence, destroy.
Instead, they smeared her.
She's a Russian agent.
She's a traitor.
She's a spy for Syria.
She doesn't care about the Constitution.
These people are so desperate to maintain their stranglehold on power.
They will destroy anyone
who has the gall or the opportunity to expose them.
They're all rallying around the idea that these people must be stopped.
Why?
Why did Doug fly through with the Department of Interior if that's the biggest problem?
Because that's not the biggest problem.
They know the biggest problem right now is they're about to be exposed.
So they have got to destroy and delay and stop these people.
They asked her if Edward Snowden was a traitor.
They weren't interested in her answer because the truth is too dangerous for them.
They're not interested in an actual answer on any of these questions.
Here's the truth.
Is Edward Snowden a traitor?
Well, I don't know.
We could talk about that back and forth, but I know he shouldn't have ever had to blow the whistle, especially to the press.
But it's because of this very committee, senators.
It is because of many of you, in fact, you from Colorado that are questioning me on that.
You were in the Senate at the time.
Why wasn't he comfortable coming to you to blow the whistle?
Why is it
he couldn't become a whistleblower?
He had to go to the outside press.
See,
All of the things that they were doing that he exposed, I don't like the fact that he exposed them
because it hurt the United States, but I'm glad he exposed them because what you were doing, what you in oversight were allowing to happen for years
was against the Constitution, was against our rule of law.
So he shouldn't have had to blown the whistle.
You, all of you sitting right there on this panel, you're in charge of oversight.
You failed.
And you dare question me?
Maybe you should do your damn job.
Maybe you should stop the unconstitutional surveillance programs before they ever begin.
These are the people that oversaw the FBI lying to the American people about Hunter Biden's laptop.
The laptop that proved the sitting president of the United States and his family took tens of millions of dollars from foreign adversaries, including China.
The same China that is threatening the United States, threatening Taiwan, the same China China that these very senators allow to buy up American farmland and land around our own military bases.
The same China that floods our streets with fentany while their partners in Mexico butcher Americans at the same border.
While these same senators do nothing while millions of unknown, undocumented people flood over our borders and have empowered the cartels.
Don't you dare ask me who the traitor is, Senator.
Don't do it.
Where are you on any of these?
Let me ask you, Senator, let me ask all of you,
who's the traitor here?
Is Edward Snowden the
traitor that just has to be executed?
Because treason comes with execution.
So is he the traitor here?
Is he the biggest traitor?
That happened 15 years ago.
Your technology on spying and corruption is far beyond anything he ever said
is he the traitor or is senator let me ask you the president president joe biden is he the traitor for taking millions of dollars from our enemy is his family did they commit treason or Is it the people under your oversight who knowingly spread false information to protect that family?
Or is it you, Senator?
Are you complicit?
Are you corrupt?
Or are you just simply incompetent?
Because it's one of the three, incompetence, corruption, or outright treason.
Which is it, Senator?
That's what I'd like to hear.
Pick one.
Because the country is waking up and the American people are demanding an answer.
And we will get it in the end.
You cannot build this house of lies.
It's already crumbling around.
Now would be the time to tell the truth, Senator, because we're looking for a lot of answers here.
Who is actually executing the duties of the president of the United States in the last six months?
Maybe the last four years.
I don't know how long.
When did you know, Senator?
Did you know who was protecting, who was silencing anyone that was trying to say, maybe we have a problem here?
The president is clueless?
By the way, while we're on this topic, who was responsible for the coup to overthrow a president of the United States?
Because that's what it was.
How did that happen?
Who was actually
there?
Who made that happen and then selected Harris to be the Democratic candidate?
Who did that?
How did that happen?
I'm so interested to know because none of it was constitutional.
And
why did whomever actually came up with the huge list of names for presidential pardons include so many of you,
senators, so many congressmen, so many people who dare to point the finger my way.
Who is in charge of that list?
And why are you on those lists?
Is this the reason you're afraid of people that are simply looking for the truth?
Because I want to be crystal clear on what this really is.
I'll continue in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you a little bit about Rob, who wrote in a while back about his experience with Relief Factor.
Besides working on his regular job, Rob built built houses on the side for years.
Man, it's a nice side job.
What?
That led to horrible hip and back pain.
He heard about Relief Factor, decided to give it a shot.
Within four days, his pain pretty much subsided.
He continued to get better over time.
Rob summed it up saying, being pain-free is indescribable.
Thank you.
I know the feeling.
Relief Factor is a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain naturally by fighting inflammation, which is the source of most of our pain in our bodies and, frankly, a lot of our disease.
It's 100% drug-free, developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.
And over a million people have tried Relief Factor's Quick Start Kit.
70% of them have gone on to order it again and again.

10 seconds, station ID.
I want to be clear at this point in my rant of what this is really about, what's really happening in Washington, D.C.
right now.
This is the deep state and all of the corrupt senators right now fighting for their survival.
That's all this is.
It is the act of desperate people doing all all they can to stay out of jail.
Literally, stay out of jail.
You start exposing the corruption in the military-industrial complex, it goes right to the senators.
You start
exposing the corruption and the black ops that are happening in the Intel community, it goes right to the senators.
You start exposing what happened at the DOJ and FBI, it goes right to the senators.
They're all oversight.
Many of them benefited from these things politically and in power.
They're trying to stay out of jail.
This is the ruling class, Democrats and Republicans, panicking.
For the first time in decades, their grip on power is slipping because this president is appointing people in all positions that are going to go grab it by its roots and root it out and show it to the American people.
At best, it's those who have been in bed with the intelligence and military complex who believe, at best, that war and American intervention work, doing all they can to keep their secrets and their secret policies that keep us in these wars alive.
The problem is, none of their old tricks work.
We've had these tricks for a hundred years.
Conspiracy theory,
that's a Karl Marx thing.
That was used by Woodrow Wilson.
That was used again by the Soviet Union and the plants here in the United States.
Call them conspiracy theorists, discredit them, destroy them.
You've called us so many names now, we don't believe any of them.
Words don't have any meaning anymore.
Your tricks don't work.
The smears, the leaks, the media hit jobs, the fake outrage.
You've played that role too many times.
It's a soap opera.
No, it's a Mexican soap opera, a Spanish soap opera.
Those things are so over the top, they're hysterical.
You've played that role too many times.
We know.
We know the system is corrupt.
We know the game is rigged.
And we know there is no moral high ground left for you to stand on.
So let me tell you what's really happening next.
This is Glenn Beck.
Thank God we have a pro-Israel president back in the Oval Office among many of the reasons to be happy Trump is in office.
The fact is he stands up for our greatest ally and one of our most important.
It's a step in the right direction.
It's a step back to common sense.
As Christians, we recognize our brotherhood with the Jews.
We want to help them in their time of need.
We also recognize the enemy, and the enemy is evil.
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is doing their part to stand not only for helping to remember what's happened in the past, but providing food, shelter, and safety to Jews in Israel and all around the world.
You want our country to be blessed?
Bless the Jewish people.
Will you please donate to help them?
You'll be helping provide food, water, medicine, and other basic necessities to Jewish communities.
We want the government to do less, then we have have to do more.
In a world that holds a lot of darkness for the Jewish people, today
you can be the part of the light shining out from the Christian world to our brothers and sisters.
Give a gift to support the Jewish people.

This farce you are seeing play out in Washington is nothing but the death throes of a system that has been corrupt for decades.
It's a system that has finally met an opponent in Donald Trump and his team that cannot be bought, you cannot intimidate, you can't control, and seemingly you can't destroy.
And that's why every American, every American should be rooting for
these disruptors.
Because they're not trying to fix a few broken policies or reform a couple of agencies at the margins.
They're going after the entire corrupt system.
They see what the American people have seen for a while, that you don't clean up a house by dusting the furniture.
You tear the rot out from the foundation.
And make no mistake, that's exactly what it's going to take.
This is a country that doesn't need another political band-aid, another round of empty hearings, another worthless promise from the same people who have failed us for generations.
It needs a shock to the system.
It needs a defibrillator to the chest of a dying republic.
And these appointees, Trump's team, they're the only ones with the courage to deliver it.
Let me ask you, can you imagine a more dangerous job than going against 18 intelligence agencies, all rooted in black ops, with all of their tools, all of their tricks, all of their years of lying, of media collusion, of setups and killing?
Tulsi's not stupid, and I don't think she's unafraid.
She knows what could happen to her.
She knows, however, that what she is asked to do is bigger than her or her life.
This is the work that gets people, at least in every movie I've seen, gets people killed or suicided.
If you were in Russia, I would be saying to Tulsi and all the rest of them, don't go near the rooftops.
Imagine what, with the tech we already know we have, what they can make people believe about these people.
Would you take this job?
Would you take any of these jobs knowing the danger that they're walking into?
The least we can do is let our voices of support be heard.
These people are the modern-day patriots.
They're the ones who are like life,
fortune, and sacred honor.
Cash Patel is in the same boat.
Yesterday, he spoke of releasing all of the names in the little black book of Jeffrey Epstein.
How many people in those chambers have their name in that little black book?
How many people in those chambers are taking money from people whose names are in that little black book?
And if you actually believe Jeffrey Epstein hung himself with a paper sheet, you're a moron.
What kind of danger
is the guy who says, I'm going to release all those names, what kind of danger is he in?
And of course, it's totally safe to challenge the biggest industry with billions of dollars at stake, government contracts, graft, with COVID alone, a crime sheet as tall as I am.
Yeah, don't worry about RFK.
He's totally safe.
He's a Kennedy.
When's the last time a Kennedy that was going against the system
was safe?
What could possibly happen to him in his quest to find the truth about our pharmaceuticals industries?
You're not a spectator in this.
It's up to make it really crystal clear to these senators and to this government.
We're watching.
We're serious.
We will not tolerate cowardice and complicity.
And what's happening is not a riot.
It's not chaos.
It's not an insurrection.
This is a lawful revolution.
That's what happened in November.
A lawful revolution.
A revolution at the ballot box, in our communities, in our voices, demanding actual accountability for my entire life.
I have heard the American people say, it's just time to throw the bums out, but we never do.
We've grumbled, we've complained, we've shaken our fists at the TV, but we've never actually followed through.
If you were part of the Tea Party and you never gave up, this is the outcome we were all looking for 20 years ago.
When Obama voters voted for hope and change, I believe this is the change they were hoping for.
Transparency, accountability, an end to an upper-crust ruling class that never has to pay any price for what they do.
Hope and change, an end to special interest rule, the end to endless wars, the end of corruption and cover-ups.
That's what the Obama voters actually voted for, but they got Marxism and more cover-ups instead.
Americans, the far right, the center, the left, we're all waking up
because we're tired of the hatred.
I don't want to hate my neighbor.
I don't want to hate other people in my country.
I don't like the name-calling.
I don't like the corruption on either side.
We're tired of being pawns on a chessboard.
We're tired of being things that everybody's moving around and we're watching some puppet show, which is supposed to piss us off.
We're tired of the politicians and the state-run media whipping us up into a frenzy to distract us from the real issues and the real villains.
And the most dangerous villains to our republic do not live on Main Street, gang.
They work on K Street.
They work inside and just outside of the Beltway, all over the District of Columbia.
They work in the Capitol and the White House and all of the agencies.
And it's time we speak out
and hold these people responsible
usually we speak out and then fail to remember to hold these people responsible this time they need to be reminded that what happened was a revolution
a peaceful legal revolution your time is up
This isn't just a change from the Republicans to the Democrats.
This is a change from the elites to the people.
Everybody mocks Donald Trump.
He's just, he's not an elite.
He's not very smart.
He's,
A, that's not true.
B,
are you saying he's just like the people whose votes you always try to get?
Because that's who he is.
That's who he's answering to.
This time, we will remember and we will act.
This time, we have to.
Because the alternative is unthinkable.
You finally got what you were asking for.
and are you going to allow it to be taken apart by these weasels in Congress who are just trying to keep everything secret?
Spare us the theatrics, senators.
Stop the kabuki theater of the hearings.
We know.
Enough with the show trials, enough with the false outrage, enough with the false and ridiculous accusations.
Let Trump and his team go to work.
Let them do exactly what the American people sent them to Washington to do.
To once and for all clean house.
And it's up to us to make our voices heard.
Every senator, every single one of them should be hearing from you.
Senator,
I have no hostility towards you.
I'm just making you a a promise.
This is what we asked for.
This is what people on the left and the right voted for.
Democrats joined us in this.
We want his people
to go through.
If you don't vote for his person,
that's fine.
But another revolution will happen at the voting box, and we will not forget.
We will gather together.
We will raise money to primary you.
If you don't get it yet, you never will.
So you will be primaried.
And enough voices saying that in a very calm and collective, non-threatening manner,
I think that will send a very nice message.
You cannot piss them off.
You cannot threaten them.
Don't.
Don't.
I'm asking for you to hear the voice of the American people.
I'm asking my senator, who is supposedly representing me and my state,
to hear the voices of the people that just voted these people in.
And if you can't do that, that's okay.
But times have changed.
And
I know there are millions of Americans that feel exactly the same way.
We will primary you, Senator.
We will.
And you will be replaced.
Just as all of the people who are part of this on the left, all of this corruption,
it's going to be exposed.
Be on the right side.
I invite you, be on the right side, please.
Let them hear you.
Okay.
I think that's it, Stu.
That's all I got to say.
So
when you say let them hear you,
what should you be asking for?
What's your request of the senators?
Vote for Trump's nominees.
Full stop.
Full stop.
So it's not advise and consent, in your view.
No, you can advise.
What are they doing?
They're not advising you.
No, they're not.
They're not even listening.
They're not even listening.
They're asking both.
This is Kabuki theater.
Advise and consent.
So you can say, Mr.
President, I disagree with this person because this, this, and this, but at the end of the day, at the end of the day, you deserve your people.
Okay.
The people voted for you and you were very specific on what you were going to do.
And people on even the other side of the aisle came to support that idea.
You have brought in people who, quite honestly, as a conservative, I'm not so comfortable with, but you you believe that they will execute the things that you know have to be done.
So I trust him.
Give him his people, period.
No opposite.
You would say, because like, let's say if a senator ran, I don't know what the right example is, but a senator ran on a strong national defense and thinks Tulsi Gabbard just doesn't hit the standards that they believe are correct.
Do you still, do they have to basically look past their own views?
Do you believe the President of the United States doesn't take our security seriously?
Well, he might
think he takes it seriously, but might disagree on his approach or at least her approach.
Yeah, well, we've tried your approach, Senator, for 100 years.
Like, I mean, again, he also got elected
in this scenario.
He did.
Doesn't he have to stay loyal to his own principles?
Yeah, I think he does, but that just shows me he needs to be voted out next time.
You think his principles are right?
I think we have tried for 100 years to be the world's policeman.
It doesn't work.
We have tried for 100 years of not peace through strength, control.
We have been trying to plant our ideas and many times in the most corrupt ways.
No.
No,
the world has changed.
The World War II
world that the banks, quite honestly, and the government colluded to build afterwards, we're going to be the world's policeman, we're going to control everything, that world is over.
The only thing that is left is the almighty dollar, and we're going to lose that if we continue down this road.
I'm sorry.
We're not spending the way that we used to spend.
You want to make sure that the military is the strongest ever?
I'm all for it.
But you're cutting back elsewhere.
You're cutting back in the Defense Department somewhere because all of it can't be done.
Period.
So,
because I think that's a valid opinion, right?
And it's your opinion.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, what if Trump had named Lindsey Graham for this role?
Right, who would be completely the opposite of Tulsi Garrin and have that old school Republican hawkish stuff when I I would say Donald Trump didn't learn what the American people were asking for.
But you would still give him his nominee.
Yes, but
I would be speaking out against it
and saying this is a bad idea, which is everybody's right.
But the first time around, a president should get who he is asking for, at least from his own party.
From his own party.
Because you wouldn't necessarily
go on a Democratic president.
But at least from his own party.
And especially this time, this was a revolution.
There was no way this guy was going to win.
And what this guy stood for in the end is not tax policy.
Okay.
That might be part of it, but that's not what he was.
That's not why people voted him in.
They voted him in to say, enough is enough.
I'm cleaning house.
I'm changing this system.
We're going back to the Constitution.
More in just a second.
Ministry of Pre-Born is our sponsor, and they do more right now to help champion the cause of life than I think just about any other organization out there.
But there's a lot of good organizations.
I just really like Pre-Born because I think they are approaching it the right way.
They approach with compassion.
They care about two lives, not just the life of the baby, but also the mom.
Now, here's the unfortunate thing.
Today, the abortion bill counts for over 60% of abortions.
That's, I mean, that's happening 24-7 now.
This is why pre-born is important.
In addition to what they're doing with the free ultrasounds, they're also administrating a new protocol for women who have attempted abortion but want it reversed.
What a life-saving, literally a life-saving thing that is, and a soul-saving thing for the moms and everybody else.
Pre-born has rescued over 300,000 babies from abortion, and every day on average they rescue 200 more.
And they are working on not just the clinics, but also
death by mail.
If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?
Your tax-deductible donation of $5,000 would sponsor Pre-Born's entire network for 24 hours.
You could rescue 200 babies today, tomorrow.

Glenn Beck will be right back.
Recently, listening to a a radio show and the host said that the movie Brave the Dark is incredible and you have to go see it this weekend.
So now I'm listening to him.
This is
the Glenn.
Have you heard of this?
Glenn
Marl, but I think I heard the same show.
The guy loved it.
He loved it.
And loved it.
He went with his family.
He kind of went even reluctantly a little bit.
Yeah.
I wanted to watch the Mark Wahlberg movie.
Yes.
I've heard.
Well, have you heard good things about that?
I have not.
Okay, so
his wife said, I don't want to go see that.
I want to to go see you know brave the dark and i'm like i don't know he's like i don't know anything about it right this is the same he loved it yes loved it seemingly whenever his wife drags him to do something she's usually right i've not known that over the years
but that's just me listening to radio shows uh it's uh brave the dark is a great movie it's out now from angel studios you know angel studios they did sound of freedom they did a bunch of other great movies um and uh this is their latest it's about a kid who's in trouble his his his teacher uh bails him out of jail and takes him in it's it's a great story about redemption and making a difference in someone's life and it's really well done it's a it's it's a good just movie that's what's important i don't want to go see a message movie right i just wanted a good movie and i thought i was going to get a message or he thought he was going to get a message right that's bad and he did but he got a good movie with the message first which is great yes that's that's always important brave the dark it's in theaters now go to angel.com slash beck angel.com slash beck get tickets now brave the dark from angel studios
We're still discussing what senators should do.
And I think I'm, you know,
I'm so strong on give him consent for his nominees, Republicans,
because he has proven that he understands the problem and
he is a master strategist.
He really is.
Down the road where shadows hide, till the dark on every side.
Stand your ground when times get dark.
Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is
the Glenn Beck Program.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
It is a true honor, we should all recognize this, I feel, a true honor to be alive at this time.
We were selected to live our life at this time.
How many millions have waited for these days, honestly?
And the things that are just over the horizon, both bad and good, are things that no human has even ever pondered in many cases.
And because of some of the technology we have, some things that we never knew if it was true or not,
we now can verify.
And one of those things is the Shroud of Turin.
If you don't know what that is,
sit tight.
We have a podcast that is available now for Blaze TV subscribers.
Comes out tomorrow.
It's one that you should watch on YouTube, but you can listen to on Apple or wherever you get your podcast.
Because
we had the linen copy, exact size, everything, of the Shroud of Turin, and we go through it and
all of the science that is coming out, but we missed a few things that are kind of important.
We'll tell you about those coming up in just a second.
First, let me tell you, do you know what happens in America when you kill somebody, even if it's in self-defense?
You go to jail.
You get your day in court.
If you live in Texas, you're probably saying, thank God I live in Texas, not New Jersey.
But you're still going to jail and your life is overturned for about a year.
I mean, it's, you know, a big deal, as it should be, killing somebody.
You want to make sure that deadly force is what you really needed to do, and not because of legalities alone.
You just don't want to kill somebody.

We have to say
welcome back to a dear friend of ours, Jeremiah Johnston.
He is a Christian Thinker Society president, Prestonwood Baptist Church apologetics pastor,
and one of the leading voices now, I would say, on the Shroud of Turin.
And it is interesting.
We talk about this on the podcast that comes out tomorrow.
I was a Catholic when I was young, and
this was known as a Catholic relic.
And so Every other church always said, oh, it's a Catholic thing.
And so they didn't pay attention to it.
But now, like, this is a big topic in the evangelical community, and it's going through all religions.
Why?
Well, it's going through all religions because 63 different academic disciplines have spent 500,000 scientific hours studying what this image is in the Shroud of Turin.
And
all of these researchers are saying this is the burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth.
It's 2,000 years old.
It's incredible the science that we have now.
Back in, what was it, 78 or 88?
88 is the carbon dating.
And that came back
as inaccurate.
Correct.
Said it was only
a thousand years old.
But I talked to the guy who was the Jewish atheist
who was on this team, tried to get the records, the actual data from Oxford that did the carbon dating, couldn't get it for years.
When he finally got his hands on it, he was like, oh my gosh,
this is completely inaccurate.
Why?
Well, it's inaccurate because they used a sample that was patched.
And that raw data is why it was suppressed.
And Barry Schwartz, who is an atheist Jew, as you said, died last year believing that the man in the image is Jesus of Nazareth.
He died believing that.
And now there's all kinds of new data that has come out there.
What is the new
better-than-carbon data?
Absolutely.
Waxis wide-angle X-ray scattering.
This is breaking news that we have on your program.
Wide-angle X-ray scattering, which actually compares the linen cloth with other linen cloths that we have from Israel, from Masada, an AD 70, 2,000-year-old material.
And it shows that the shroud has been getting old.
The term is degradation.
It's been getting old for 2,000 years, not 700 years, as the carbon-14 is special.
So
it can date it through how many years it's been degraded.
Exactly.
The linen fiber.
And it also shows, or something else shows, that there are things in the fiber that only came from the springtime in Jerusalem.
Max Fry, a criminologist from Zurich, Switzerland, spent five years of his life tracing the pollen.
And what's interesting on the podcast, and this podcast is an absolute remote drop.
I mean, it's going to break the internet tomorrow.
There is such a hunger for this information, especially for those of you that are watching right now.
You have young people that are really asking those questions.
We talk on the podcast, how there's this awakening happening in our country and indeed in our world for God.
There seems to be a fascination among Gen Z right now for this kind of evidence that the Shroud of Turin provides.
So, Max Fry, the criminologist, has pollen spores that not only come, 45 of the 58 pollen spores are from Jerusalem, they only bloom in spring, Glenn.
When was Jesus crucified?
April.
April.
Bingo.
And by the way, we also trace,
you asked so many great questions on the Glenn Beck podcast.
You've got to watch it.
And you asked about, well, where does this show up?
And one thing I failed to mention on the podcast, the pollen isn't just from Jerusalem.
There's pollen from Odessa, where we know that the Shroud was in 544.
There's pollen from Constantinople.
There's pollen from France.
We know the Shroud was there.
There's pollen from Italy.
So when he did it, it not only gave us the fact that it goes back its great antiquity to Israel, but it also gave us the breadcrumbs of the Shroud's travels the last 2,000 years.
Wow.
Unbelievable.
What is it?
There's so many things we didn't get to.
Talk about the knees, the marks of the knees on the Shroud.
And I want to credit your fine editor who did an amazing job putting the podcast together.
He reminded me of something we forgot, that there is travertine limestone soil that is on the knees and on the feet of the crucified man.
And in the podcast, we talk about the moment where Jesus' shoulders are separated.
Do you remember in the Gospels, or if you watch the Passion, when
he drops the cross, the petibulum, the cross beam, and Siren of Cyrene is asked to carry it for him?
That's when we believe his shoulders were separated, but his knees hit the ground hard.
And if you look at the photo negatives of the image of the crucified man, you'll see that his knees looked just all kinds of abrasions all over the knees and in the feet.
And that soil comes from Jerusalem.
It's travertine limestone.
So it was
when they wrapped the body, that soil transferred to the cloth, and it's still there from the knees.
It's not from France.
It's not from Europe.
This isn't a medieval forgery.
And this is where we don't check our brain at the door to be Christians.
And what's great about this podcast is we see the coming together of Athens and Jerusalem, faith and reason.
You and I talk science really way more than faith.
We look at this like a criminologist would look at a case and say, is this something from antiquity?
And if it is, what are the implications if we have the moment of Jesus' resurrection?
And I love the title you gave it, History's First Selfie, because we think Jesus took the first selfie in the Shroud of Turin.
And we talk about this, and I don't want to rehash everything, but we talk about what that image is.
There's no oils, there's no paints, no pigments.
There's nothing that actually is on the shroud to make that image.
And so a study was done, how could you make that image?
And they've, I guess they've come close, except the shroud burns up.
Right, but how does it happen?
It happens in one fortieth of a billionth of a second, and it takes 40,000 trillion watts of electromagnetic energy to make an image similar to what we see in the shroud.
And what we cannot reproduce, the shroud is superficial, meaning it's only in one or two of the microfibers of each fiber.
If you think about that, it's superficial.
It's razor thin.
The image doesn't go all the way through the cloth.
And this is what makes it fascinating.
But the blood does.
The blood, yeah, because that happens before the resurrection, obviously.
He's dead.
Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea, they wrap the body according to Jewish burial traditions.
And then 39 hours, that body comes alive through this incredible energy.
Here's a little
tidbit that I didn't mention on the podcast.
Can I share this with you?
And I do, so I'm a Bible scholar.
I base all of this on what I know of the scripture and its interpretation, its interpretive history.
In Mark 9, we know Jesus is transfigured and his face is still glowing.
Remember when Moses saw the Lord, his face is glowing.
I believe when John goes into the tomb, it's the early morning, probably 6 a.m.
Sunday, they're going to continue to mourn the body.
They would do this for seven days.
I believe the shroud of Turin had the face of Jesus glowing on it that first Sunday morning when he went in and saw the face of Jesus.
It said when he sees the Athonia in the Greek New Testament, this Sindon, he said,
then he believed.
That's the Greek terms for the shroud.
It's when he saw that image
in the Sudarian, in the Sindon, in the Athonia, he believed.
And I believe Jesus' face was still glowing on it.
It is just, why do you think,
why do you think, because we talked about it, and
I don't think this isn't something that gives you faith.
This is something that,
you know,
we're asked to have faith without the evidence.
So I don't think this is something that the Lord did.
So he's like, you know, in 2,000 years, they're going to find this thing.
But
it's just a reaction to what happened, a natural reaction on the fabric that what happened.
How has it made it this long?
And why do you think it's coming to the forefront now?
It's interesting because you've been warning us.
I'm an OG Blaze subscriber, so I watch you every day.
I really appreciate the warnings you've been given about AI and artificial intelligence and machine learning.
And
there's obviously pitfalls with that.
There's things that we need to be aware of, but there seems to be a controlled revelation of truth tied to technology.
And we see that with the Shroud of Turin.
We see that in the last 125 years.
We can date the Shroud back 2,000 years from history, antiquity, art.
We go through all that in the podcast.
But there's a controlled revelation from the Lord of people seeking his face where he's using modern technology
to authenticate the Shroud in ways that are just mind-blowing.
And we get into that in the podcast.
The VP-8 image analyzer is something we don't get into, but we should definitely
do that.
So this is
on the Shroud, and we don't know how this happened, right?
There's no, it doesn't happen.
It doesn't happen with any other image.
With any other image.
It left a 3D imprint or image.
And we'll talk about that.
Give me one minute, and then we'll come right back.
First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
What if I told you just with a little bit of your time, you could not only be paying significantly less for your phone service, but also dealing with a phone company that shares your values, not the leftist ones of the companies you contribute to now.
And that company is Patriot Mobile and they are actually in our neighborhoods, in our communities, helping the cause of liberty.
They take their time and some of their profit and they are working on the same things we're working on.
Switching is easy.
You'll pay a lot less and you'll be contributing to a company that's worth your hard-earned money.
They offer nationwide dependable coverage with access to all three major networks.
You're going to get the same coverage without sending money to leftist causes, and the customer service is, I believe, a lot better.
It's Patriot Mobile.

So we're with Jeremiah Johnston and we're talking about the Shroud of Turin.
It is believed to be the Shroud of
Christ and it left an imprint on the moment of resurrection.
This is the podcast that airs tomorrow.
It is fascinating.
You really need to see it and share it with friends.
It is what's being discovered now with new technology is remarkable on this.
And one of these discoveries, it left an image.
Tell me about what this is.
Absolutely.
So two years, what kicked off the scientific foray into the Shroud of Turin research, what kicked off all of the scientists going to study the Shroud of Turin in 1978 was two years earlier, two professors from the United States Air Force Academy, Eric Jumper and John Jackson, have a VP-8 image analyzer.
This is an analyzer that's used to study fault lines.
It's used to study geography.
So this isn't some kind of religious instrument.
And these professors in the United States Air Force Academy take the Shroud image and they put it through the VP8 image analyzer.
And what they see is a three-dimensional quality to the Shroud of Turin image.
I want to be very clear about this.
There is 3D 3D information encoded in a 2,000-year-old linen Jewish burial garment that we believe is from Jesus.
And when Eric Jumper and when John Jackson saw this, this is what launched the 33 scientists to go to Italy two years later to have five days with the Shroud of Turin.
This is the embryonic beginning of modern science and scientific discovery with the Shroud of Turin research.
When you put a picture of your grandkids through it or your children or your family photo, it comes out 2D.
But when you put in the image of the Shroud, there are three-dimensional qualities.
It's like a topographical map of studying elevation and brightness.
I don't even think I understand.
How?
And
this is what the STERP team, the Shroud of Turn research team, could not explain.
They don't know how the image is like this because no other image has three-dimensional qualities like the Shroud.
That is unbelievable.
And the image, we didn't get a chance to really compare it to icons and explain
that the oldest icons of Christ
are
from around the same time period, right?
That's right.
And
they're the most, seemingly the most accurate.
That's right.
So you are a great artist, Glenn, and you know this.
You know the great icon is the Christ Pantokrater, Lord of everything in Greek.
That word shows up all over both the Greek Bible and the New Testament.
Yes, it's asymmetrical.
The left side is the Savior.
The right side is the judge of all the earth, and it's beautifully asymmetrical.
Well, a Duke University professor took that image and found 175 points of correspondence between the Christ procurator image, the icon, and the Shroud of Trent.
And here's the really fascinating thing.
There's only a six-year difference between, we know the Shroud is at Edessa, which is modern-day Eastern Turkey, and 544.
Guess when this icon is dated?
550.
There's a six-year difference.
And then all of the art comes emanating out of the Byzantine period is based on the man, the picture of the face of the crucified man in the Shroud of Turin.
It's utterly fascinating.
It's unbelievable.
What do you hope people get from the podcast?
The implications of this, first is as a Christian thinker, we can marry science and faith.
These things are not mutually exclusive.
We see that I don't have to check my brain at at the door.
The most dangerous place that people can get is when you stop seeking truth.
And I'm a truth addict.
And so I'm finally, I'm always following the evidence where it leads me as a Christian thinker.
In the Gospels, what I hope this gives people is hope.
Because if Jesus rose from the dead, and I believe that he did, it validates all of his teachings.
Those are the implications.
It validates everything that he said.
And I'm looking for evidence of the greatest event in human history, the physical, bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ.
And it gives me hope.
It's God's answer to suffering and injustice.
Remember when in Mark, in Matthew chapter 12, when the Pharisees demand a sign from Jesus, he said, I'm going to give you one sign, the sign of Jonah, my resurrection from the dead.
And then they wanted to kill him.
One more thing.
It's important to point out that this is not a bunch of Bible scholars.
This is not the churches doing this.
This was all
scientists.
That's right.
And many of them set out to disprove it, right?
That's right.
Not just scientists, weapons weapons labs, Sandia labs, Los Alamos labs, the jet propulsion.
These are men and women who were coming out of studying the atomic bomb.
I mean, Barry Schwartz's documented photography was of the A-bomb before he did the Shroud of Turin.
Jeremiah, thank you so much.
I really appreciate it.
It's the Shroud of Turin, like you've never seen it before.
I've been fascinated since I was a kid about this
and was disappointed when it came out that it was not.
And I just thought, well, it's kind of cool, but I don't know how that happened.
Nobody knows how that happened.
It seems we do kind of know how that happened, and it dates right back to the time of Christ
and also
right where he was crucified and buried.
Watch this podcast and share it with as many friends as you can because it's fascinating.
And there's
some other things that are being discovered now, especially in Israel, that are going to come to light soon that are
remarkable.
The Lord is doing something, and it's remarkable times that we live in.
You can check this out, the podcast tomorrow, The Shroud of Turin, like you've never seen it.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
It's Friday.
It's fascinating stuff.
This is all in the podcast as well.
You guys go into the
Shroud of Turin.
Did you know what the Shroud of Turin was?
I did know what it was.
I didn't, like,
I will say, I remember there being some sort of controversy as to whether it was real or not at some point in my life and not really knowing what the resolution was.
Right.
And, you know, listening to all this, like, I don't have the depth of knowledge to challenge or like really, you know, understand all the scientific back and forth on that.
It was interesting to hear.
It sounds convincing to me.
What's amazing is it wasn't theologians that went after this.
I mean, in fact, theologians for years have just dismissed it.
It's the scientists who I think came to prove it wrong that ended up going,
I can't explain this.
This is
showing that it is what they think it is.
At worst,
they are, and from 80 different disciplines.
So it's not just, you know, it's not just the fiber.
It's everything.
All of these different scientists come from different disciplines and they're all testing it.
And
the worst thing they can say is, I have no idea how to explain this.
I don't know how.
So, I guess bigger question:
if all this is accurate and true, what does it mean?
What is the significance of it?
And what does it mean to us?
Well, I don't know if it's going to change anybody's mind.
You know what I mean?
It is becoming more and more
scientifically proven
to be at least from that time
an image of
of a of a guy who was crucified, was crucified in a way they didn't usually crucify people,
scourging of unbelievable amounts.
I mean, we, in the podcast, we show you the crown of thorns that the shroud would say it looks like, the nails,
the things that, you know, they whipped him.
It's an extraordinary number of
horrible marks on his body, bleeding marks where they were whipping him.
Surprised that he even got up after all of this.
And so we at least know that a man
lived at that time and died in the way that the Gospels lay out.
And then we also know that
the gospels talk about his shroud and how it was folded and everything else, which is how this was folded.
And you can track that all the way through.
I thought this appeared in like 1,000 AD
and we didn't know where it came from.
That's not true.
We can track it all the way from...
Well, it's in the Gospels, and then I think it disappears for maybe 100 years.
And then you can track it all the way along of where this thing was.
And so, again, you know, I don't think the Lord leaves these things to convince anybody.
You have to have faith.
You have to do your own homework and have faith.
However, it strengthens my faith.
I don't put, you know, my testimony into it, but it is another piece that you look at and go, wow, at least right now, if it is found to be false, you know, in the future, it's not going to rock me.
But
the way it looks right now, at least, it does say
that verifies everything that I believe.
And I appreciate those consistencies, right?
Like, I mean, a faith is faith, of course, but also like when
it aligns with science.
I mean, I think there's a value of
apologetics to understand.
This is the greatest scientist.
He is the greatest scientist.
He has to be.
He created all of this.
What's interesting is if you look at this and you say, it's a fake, first of all, we didn't understand what a negative was until we started to have film.
Okay.
So it's a negative image.
It also has all of the spores and pollen in it from Jerusalem in the spring.
We now can verify it's 2,000 years old.
But it also has, like he said, the dust of the roads from Jerusalem in the the right places of the feet and the knees.
This artist, this hoaxer,
why would he do that?
Why would he put that dust in there knowing that that wouldn't be found for 2,000 years?
It's not something that you do in 500 and say, Yeah, I'm going to, and I'm going to rub some of that dirt right here and I'm going to do that.
You wouldn't do it.
And they don't have any idea
of how
it was even laid on.
They have no idea.
There's no way to explain it except it's a flash of energy that imprinted on the cloth.
Also, the blood, we go into this, the blood is from a dead man.
They can tell the difference is that blood from when somebody was alive or dead.
And it's from a dead man.
It's so hard to understand how they can do that after all this time.
I know.
I mean, this is their expertise, I suppose.
Yeah, it's interesting because I think like it wouldn't shake, I don't think it shakes anybody's faith
if it comes out to be fake.
No, right?
Like, you know, any Pat Gray Unleash listener will, of course, be familiar with the story of Piltdown Man, which Pat brings up 434 times per week,
which is a story of a specimen that was supposed to be the missing link.
Yeah, Lucy.
Lucy.
And then they found out it was a fraud, right?
This is the one they found up to be later on to be just fraud and not real.
But it's interesting that
i don't think that shakes anybody's confidence in what they believe about you know evolution right like it it it might help confirm something might help but if that's what was
the cornerstone of your argument and why you believed something yes it would then it would right the shroud should not be anybody's cornerstone no right but it is an interesting thing and it seems to be you know especially as we get more modern ways to understand uh how these you know how these things could come to pass over such a long period of time and measure that time, it becomes more and more interesting, right?
Like it's just, I don't know, it's a pretty fascinating story.
And I think that it is also,
I think it's leading us to a place
that is the right place to be for AI.
When you get to ASI,
artificial superintelligence, which we now believe might happen by the time we're voting for a new president, this next president, the presidential election,
it is going to change things and
the people of the world will split.
They will worship the God of AI
or they will find the truth in
God, in the things that are real and tangible.
And I think, you know, this might be part of the Lord just strengthening people and going, no,
you're on the right track you're on the right track stay there stay there I don't know it's interesting James Polis who works here at the Blaze he had an exchange with someone who who wrote like you know AI is coming and any of the any of these pursuits that you have that are intellectual are wastes of time just go to the gym it's only muscles now
and James wrote second look at souls
you know
maybe we should take a quick second look at that one maybe we should maybe
start thinking about that dimension.
By the way, Elon Musk tweeted or retweeted a link to the documentary done by the Blaze and you on air traffic control.
Countdown to the next aviation disaster.
Yeah,
it was actually a trailer for it.
The full documentary is up on YouTube, which is the Blaze TV YouTube account.
You can go watch it there.
Or I would, of course, encourage you to go to Blazetv.com slash Glenn and use the code Glenn47.
You can save 47 bucks and support the idea of more of these documentaries coming out because the people who subscribe to Blaze TV saw all this, got the full picture of all of these warnings before planes started plunging into the Potomac.
Right.
And
you can defend what the president said yesterday, that this might be DEI.
It might be.
Right.
We don't know.
But you can also, you know, speak with confidence that it might not be because you know what all of that means.
And it's important to note, too, in the documentary, it's not just about DEI.
We do talk about that.
We do talk to a person who was a victim of this that should today be an air traffic controller who worked really, really hard and got a perfect score on the test and then was flushed out because he was white.
I talked to the guy who this happened to.
He's now, no, he didn't wind up becoming an air traffic controller because he was, as they called it, flushed out of the system.
That's what the government calls it.
Boy, we should send that to Trump.
Yeah.
I mean, I, you know, I mean.
Perfect score.
A perfect score.
Now, who knows what would have happened here?
We don't know for sure that DEI was part of this, but the documentary is not just about DEI.
It's also about how the technology of our air traffic control system is ancient.
I mean, it's basically Shroud of Turin technology.
It's from the same era.
Right.
Floppy.
We will carbon date.
Yeah.
We will carbon date the air traffic control system at some point.
Yeah, and also not only the technology, but like how we are so understaffed.
And part of that, the understaffing, part of that comes from DEI initiatives where they flushed out a bunch of the white people who were qualified.
It's also about overtaxing people who are good and should be overtaxing.
But also creating an atmosphere that is not about merit.
It's about something else.
And you don't want in an airplane, you don't want that.
You want the person to be there because they're the best at doing what they're doing yeah and you know like
can we be honest about how people are some jobs just appeal to certain types of people you know for example like they have these like firefighter initiatives to get dei people into you know we want more female firefighters and it's like you can spend a fortune on that initiative and you can get it from
two percent to five percent or something but the bottom line is guys want to be firefighters right Like some women do.
Some might be fantastic at it.
But generally speaking, guys like doing it more.
You know, you look at industry, healthcare, the healthcare industry.
There's a lot of guys that like going to the healthcare industry.
But
percentage-wise, women are more interested in going to those fields and they wind up doing well in those fields.
We can all say, well, we need more men in the healthcare industry if we really want to.
But like that is just, it's just a, it's a strange pursuit.
Let people pick their own path.
Right.
But here's the thing also.
I mean, if you look at air traffic control and you looked at it as American Idol,
American Idol will open it up for everybody.
And it doesn't matter what you look like or anything else.
There's been fat people, white people, Asian people.
There's been everybody on that show.
But it does require merit.
And they're all judged by Simon.
You know what I mean?
And Simon will say, wow, you really don't have a place here.
Or,
you know, you're, I don't think you're going to make it, but keep trying.
You're not part of this cut.
Because the merit isn't there.
When you're looking for the best, think Simon.
That's the way when we're looking at air traffic control, we're looking for somebody to run our nuclear waste program.
We don't get the guy in the dress that's stealing luggage from the airport.
We get a guy who really understands and is the best person for nuclear waste.
I will also say that as a person who's not on social media all that often,
when Elon Musk tweets your documentary, you get a lot of text messages from people about it.
That's something I learned yesterday.
Everybody I know texted me that said, look at this.
And it was the same thing.
And he wrote, by the way, he wrote as predicted, talking about that documentary.
Like, and the documentary is talking about, you know, hey, we're going to have an aviation disaster if we don't change the way we're doing things.
So I, you know, I can't, you I think you'll really enjoy it.
I think it's a lot of really great mission.
I think it is, I do think it's really good.
The people who put it together, I mean, my stupid part is aside, did a great job with it.
And Blaze TV is a film.
Our documentary film team is really amazing, but they are so wildly expensive
that
we just can't do them if you don't support Blaze TV because
they will never make money.
They're a black hole of money, as usually news and documentary things are, especially if you pump them out as much as we do.
So if you have the extra cash, Blazetv.com slash Glenn.
Code is Glenn47.
If you don't, still, if you could watch it on YouTube, that's totally cool.
It's there for free now.
All right.
Deborah wrote in about our dog's experience with rough greens.
She says, I recently adopted an older German shepherd named Ava.
She said, I added rough greens to her diet about 10 days ago, and I believe it's already helping with her digestion.
Ava seems to love the taste.
She's always anxious and licks the bowl clean.
Her energy is improving, and she's adapting well to her new home.
It is not a dog food, rough greens.
It is something that you sprinkle on your dog's food, gives your pets food, the vitamins, probiotics, the enzymes, the omega oils, the antioxidants, the things that are alive and are important for your dog to have.
You can improve your pet's coat, digestion, energy, have fewer vet bills.
Bring 2025 in as the year you got a new pet, even though it's the old one.
You'll be amazed at how young they start to appear again.
The jumpstart trial bag, normally $20, is free.
You just pay for shipping and use the promo code Glenn.
Resolve to provide what your pet's food is missing with Rough Greens, RUFFGreens.com, RUFFGreens.com, RoughGreens.com.
So good, your pet will ask for it by name.
More Glenn Beck coming up next.
So, in this documentary about air traffic control, Stu outlines and quotes a memo and a new policy for the FAA from Pete Butigej.
Listen.
2022, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced a new recruitment goal for the FAA.
3% of its workforce should be disabled.
And not just any form of disabled, but, quote, individuals who suffer from total deafness in both ears, total blindness, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disabilities, psychiatric disabilities, and dwarfism, end quote.
You wrote a letter to the FAA about this specific thing.
What was their response?
Yeah, so I wrote a letter to FAA Administrator Whitaker
explaining that, you know, this is a problem.
Almost every adult American, even those who suffer from disabilities, you can almost always find something that someone can do.
But there are some jobs that you might not want to assign to someone.
Okay, so this
the only reason that this is so important is, A, that's insane.
Dwarfism is the lead.
You have to guy a stool.
What's the problem there?
Blindness?
Air traffic control?
No, no blind people.
The significant intelligence problems?
No, no.
When we were at CNN, I'm not making this up.
Our sound engineer was completely deaf.
Look at the ratings of CNN.
Now make it an airplane.
Here's Glenn Beck.
