Today is probably one of, uh,

I was gonna say one of the weirdest days, but the last, you know, four weeks, six weeks has just been unrelenting.

But this one

really gets to the core of where we're going and how important this election is because we have just had an independent reporter that works with Matt Taibbi expose what the Democrats did in the last election and then brought into the White House.

They have been targeting you.

If you've ever spoken out and said, he's too old to run or, you know, I don't like Kamala Harris's gun policy, whatever it is, they've deemed that misinformation and they go out and they try to change your mind without you knowing it by manipulating the World Wide Web.

It is 1984 and Tulsi Gabbard is on to tell us what happens in 1984.

It is,

it's an important podcast today.

Next.

First, Patriot Mobile.

You and I have a lot of work to do in this country, and it seems like the battle is always uphill, especially when it comes to fighting against the left's constant efforts to destroy America from within.

But hope persists, and one of the things you can do is patronize the businesses who are not trying to destroy us, not trying to tell us how horrible we are, but who stand for the same principles that you and I stand for.

The parallel economy we've been building, it's made up of businesses who don't hate what you stand for.

like the Constitution and Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.

Right now, you can switch to Patriot Mobile, and you're going to get a whole month free just for doing it.

You're listening to

the best of the Blenbeck program.

I want to to get right to a story

that is

extraordinarily disturbing.

It should be.

Now, we have Tulsi Gabbard on in about an hour.

Tulsi Gabbard has been targeted, and we know now because of a whistleblower.

And what's crazy is this whistleblower is

actually in trouble now with the TSA.

They're going after the whistleblower.

Instead of listening to the whistleblower and saying, whoa, wait a minute, that's out of control, the top of TSA is now going after the whistleblower.

What happened to Tulsi Gabbard?

She'll tell you about it in case you don't know in about an hour from now.

I believe we have an update on that story as well.

This is the latest

about how Biden and Harris kept everything silent.

Zoom call videos following the 2020 election cycle show Biden-Harris staffers reveal how they manipulated disinformation to hide then-Democratic candidate Joe Biden's cognitive decline from voters.

I want you to understand they are asking you to trust your finances, your job, your children to people who have been manipulating and lying to you since 2020.

Former Biden-Harris campaign digital director Rob Flaherty, now presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris's deputy campaign manager.

So this isn't a guy who's been discredited.

He's just been exposed and he's now the deputy campaign manager for Kamala Harris.

They created a program and it was revealed on this Skype call or this Zoom call

that the Democratic National Committee, the DNC, created a program to detect, track, and have social media platforms flag misinformation narratives, including online discussions about Biden's mental fitness for public office.

These videos showed a Zoom call that Flarity had conducted with Hope, Not Hate.

That is a U.S.-based, or sorry, a UK-based activist group that is, its mission is to stop far-right extremism.

So in this Zoom call,

Matt O'Falia, who is an independent journalist,

revealed that whatever they deemed to be misinformation, they could court it off.

Flaherty said misinformation narratives include conversation online about corruption.

Think of that.

This is your federal government and your Democratic National Committee putting a program together.

Well, this is during the campaign.

Imagine what they have now.

Putting a program together to target you

if you said, I don't know, is he fit to run?

Flaherty called the program one of the smartest things orchestrated by the Democratic Party.

A news release from May 2021

said he had been announced as the DNC Counter Disinformation Program's lead analyst or analyst in recent months.

Then Biden for President Director of Rapid Response

Who later became the Biden administration's White House Deputy Director of Digital Strategy, took part in the call as well.

And she said that there was a massive amount of disinformation relating to Biden's mental fortitude.

She explained that people were making posts related to topics deemed disinformation,

and they were targeted in real time

based on their online behavioral cues.

building out personas based on the kind of content that you were consuming and that you were searching for and the kind of websites you were visiting.

Do you understand

what they are now been caught red-handed doing?

They are monitoring every keystroke you make.

If you say something out of line with what the state wants you to say, this is KGB stuff.

If you speak out of line, then what happens?

Well, DNC said, quote, we targeted folks based on online behavioral cues.

We built out the personas based on the content they were consuming and searching for, the kinds of websites they were visiting, so we could target those folks in real time as they were exposed to that.

So if you went to Glennbeck.com and you got a story or the blaze and you got a story and you passed it and it was anything the state disagreed with, which is pretty much everything that we have printed.

You were targeted and things were put into your feed.

They took the helm of the program and the reports were sent to the highest levels of the Biden campaign, according to Flarity.

The program is still listed on the DNC's official website.

Durgan remains employed by the DNC, going on six years now, according to his LinkedIn page.

He previously worked a few months for data

visualization,

and

he worked on Hillary Clinton's campaign.

What a surprise.

Now, in this call,

the head guy said at least 200,000 votes that Biden received in 2020 were due to the program.

The Democratic president won the states of Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin by less than that, all put together.

They were touting how effective this system was.

Quote, the risk and the hit concern around mental acuity in particular went down by eight

points.

You realize if you can sway something by eight points, the power you have, because they do.

Now, think of this.

Remember how we were all told that it is a conspiracy theory that these videos about Joe Biden coming out, they were all just manipulation.

Those were deep frauds.

Do you remember that?

Didn't say deep fakes.

They were deep frauds.

And as they're telling us that they have to police us for misdis and malinformation, they told us that he was fine,

that he was top of his game.

There wasn't a problem.

And anybody who is saying that is engaging in disinformation, and we've got to do something about this disinformation.

And then we all saw him.

The entire world watched him during the debate.

And within minutes,

all of that was gone.

Within minutes, they all said, yeah, boy, he's really bad.

You know, I've been hearing that for a while.

In fact, I didn't say anything.

I saw him six months ago, and he was really bad.

All of a sudden, it was okay to question his mental acuity, and so they did to the point where they operated a coup on him.

Let me show you what this is going to mean.

Let me just go over to Europe.

In Europe, the Crown

just posted, think

before you post,

and then the stop hand.

Content that incites violence or hatred isn't just harmful.

It can be illegal.

The Crown Protective Services, online violence.

It takes online violence seriously and it will prosecute when the legal test is met.

Remind those close to you to share responsibility or face the consequences.

You can be arrested for posting online

and prosecuted and put in jail and they're doing it.

Now, how bad does it have to get on the other side?

Well, they just they saw somebody speaking on there like, you know what?

I, this is, we should, we should go get this guy, Ricky Jones.

He is on the Dartford Borough Council.

He's a member of the Labor Party.

He felt comfortable enough to go on stage and say,

these people, meaning the far right, these people are disgusting, nasty fascists, and we need to cut all of their throats and get rid of all of them.

He then slid his finger across his neck and then led free, free Palestine.

But if you post anything,

be careful because the crown

will come and get you.

All you have to do is just go along.

I mean, don't you know Politico has done a hard-hitting piece.

Tim Walz's camo cap is more important than you think.

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is making casual wear a political boon.

That's the reporting from Politico.

Don't get sidetracked on all this.

They are lying to you and have been lying to you for years.

You have been made to feel alone.

You have been made made to feel like an idiot, extremist, a racist, sexist.

You've been made to feel guilty about things.

You've been called un-American.

We've been called all of these names and more because we believe in the Bill of Rights and that men are men, women are women, and our children shouldn't be made into tools for politics.

drag queen story hours.

No, that's beneficial to your kids.

We've been told we are haters and book burners.

Book burners, what comes to mind, of course, Nazis.

We have been told we are conspiracy theorists because we believe that there is a deep state, that it is out of control, that it is partnered with others in and out of the government, the revolving door between Silicon Valley and the CIA, it's obvious,

trying to influence your thoughts, your voice, your mind.

Trying to keep you quiet.

We've been saying this for years, and they have lied to us over and over again.

Do you feel manipulated yet?

There is no DEI.

There's no CRT.

Oh, that's just a racist trope.

Biden is fine.

He's at the top of his game.

These riots are mostly peaceful and grassroots.

I mean, after all, it's only BLM Inc.

We're not coming for your gas stove or your heater or your car.

Afghanistan, now that withdrawal, that was a raging success.

The Inflation Reduction Act, it's actually about inflation.

It's not.

The WEF, the Davos meetings, they're just fun ski trips.

They don't have any power.

They don't do anything.

Gee, we really don't know how Trump was assassinated.

This election

is all about.

The government and the deep state.

There is one guy who has been standing up and taking every single lie and hit

because he is right.

He is standing in the way to get to us.

You want this kind of manipulation?

You go ahead and vote for the DNC and it will only get worse.

It is so deeply entrenched in our government now.

It's got to stop.

And I see one way out.

I don't like campaigning for people and I'm not campaigning.

I'm just telling you the truth.

There is one guy, and it's Donald Trump, and this is your last chance, America.

All right, let me tell you about our sponsor quickly.

The meat you're buying at the store, where does it come from?

If your answer isn't, well, right here in America, you need to switch to good ranchers.

miss or mal information, quite honestly.

Now back to the podcast.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, you have reached the Department of Public Safety Stay-at-Home Hotline.

The information you leave is considered public information.

At the tone, please leave the following information.

Your name, your callback number, how the stay-at-home order is being violated, and where the stay-at-home order was violated.

Thank you.

Record your message at the tone.

When you are finished, hang up or press pound for more options.

Hey, you know what, Tim Walz, you should absolutely run for vice president because, you know, we love this kind of snitch on your neighbor thing.

That is audio that was put together by the state of Minnesota by Tim Walz who said, you have to tell us if somebody is breaking any of the rules, you have to tell us and then we'll take care of it.

That is terrifying.

Absolutely terrifying.

Now you look at what is happening.

They are encouraging you to snitch on a neighbor, but at the same time, they are taking any whistleblower and destroying them.

There was a breaking story that happened yesterday.

Several federal Air Marshal whistleblowers came forward with information that the former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard,

is now enrolled in the Quiet Skies program.

Now, it's described as a TSA surveillance program with its own compartmentalized suspected terrorist watch list.

The hell does that mean?

They are coming after the whistleblowers and Tulsi is with us now.

Tulsi.

Tulsi, are you there?

Hi, can you hear me?

Okay, yes, I can hear you.

I just got the statement from the TSA.

You tell me what this means.

TSA uses multi-layer security processes to protect the nation's transportation systems to ensure freedom of movement for people and Comrouse.

TSA's Quiet Skies program uses a risk-based approach to identify passengers and apply enhanced security measures on some domestic and outborne international flights.

To safeguard sensitive national security measures, TSA does not confirm nor deny whether any individual has

matched to a risk-based rule.

These rules are applied to a limited number of travelers for a limited period of time.

Simply matching to a risk-based rule does not not constitute derogatory information about the individual.

That's the response that we get when we say, was Tulsi Gabbard on this, as the whistleblowers have said, and what are you doing about it?

How do you respond to that?

This makes no sense.

It makes no sense.

And worse than that,

it exposes so much about what is broken

in our government.

When you listen to that, and I've read the word and I've heard it said a few times, a

risk-based approach.

So I am someone who, like a lot of Americans, enlisted because of 9-11.

I've served in the Army now for over 21 years, enlisted because of 9-11 to go after the Islamist terrorists who attacked us on that day and who continue to pose a threat to us today.

I've deployed to three different war zones over these last 21 years, most recently in Africa with special forces focused on working with the Somali government to defeat the Islamist terrorist group, the al-Qaeda affiliated al-Shabaab group there, deployed to Iraq in 2005 during the height of the war,

and to now be in a place

where my own government under this administration, the Biden-Harris administration, is now using the TSA, using air marshals, using TSA K-9 teams,

using both plainclothes and uniformed agents to surveil me in my movements because they deem me as a risk and a potential domestic terrorist.

It is

to say that this is hurtful, Glenn,

is beyond the pale.

That doesn't even begin to describe how this makes me feel.

And I also know that

I am certainly not the only veteran or service member who they have chosen to put on this list because this administration has said as recently as last year in 2023, but also shortly after they came into power, that they deem those who serve in the military as

likely to be domestic extremists and terrorists.

So Tulsi, do you think it is your

do you think it's your service or the fact that I mean Hillary Clinton called you a Russian asset?

I mean, she was, I believe she was Secretary of State when she was saying that.

You were a Russian asset.

So

I can't begin to place any kind of logic or rationale in their insane tyrannical thinking

and what is driving their actions other than what we've already seen proof of over these last four years is they will weaponize any levers of power they have within the government to go after those who they deem to be a threat to their power, who they deem to be a political opponent.

They see those of us who rightly criticize our government and their corruption and their abuse of power as a domestic threat.

They say so publicly.

They say, hey, those who criticize public institutions may be domestic extremists or terrorists.

So this goes against

the core of our First Amendment, right,

which our founders intentionally put in place to ensure our protected speech, whether we be praising the government or we be criticizing our government.

That is core to the founding of who we are as a country.

And so not only

the only assumption that I can make is that they are coming after me because of my speaking the truth and revealing who they really are.

And again, this is these are these are some of the most powerful people in the Democrat Party, a party that I was part of for almost almost 20 years.

I cannot think of any other reason for them to be targeting not only me, but my husband.

And also, just

it's important to note that while we have been going through this and are going through this, the reality that I now face and that we now face

is this constant stress of knowing that

that I am being surveilled by my government and wondering if and how they are doing that.

How are they monitoring my movement?

Are they listening to my phone calls?

Are they reading my emails and text messages?

Forever from here on out, looking over my shoulder constantly.

And

there is no way to live free

when I know that my government may be surveilling me

and knowing that they have no hesitation in weaponizing whatever they can get their hands on to go after someone they deem a threat.

It reminds me of

the Stalin approach of, you know,

what is it?

Find me the man and I'll show you the crime.

I'll show you the crime.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It is,

and especially that it's happening to you, a well-known person, former candidate for president.

You were a

congresswoman.

You also are still serving in the National Guard.

For them to target you

is

really truly remarkable.

Because what do you think they'll do to the average person?

And anybody who ever said, I don't care if they're surveilling or listening or whatever, because I'm not doing anything wrong.

Really, let me just play again.

This is the guy who is now in charge of the digital for Harris.

And this is him in 2020 saying what they did

to flag misinformation and change people's minds.

Cut six.

We brought Becca on to sort of think through: okay, now that we have these misinformation narratives, what do we actually do?

Like,

it is one thing to know that there is a lot of conversation online about corruption or

mental fitness or any of these things,

or

the vice president's record on the crime bill, which was sort of a controversial piece of legislation in the early 90s.

But it was another to go, okay, now what?

So what they did was they targeted you, the individual.

If you ever talked about the crime bill, which is not misinformation, as he said, it's controversial, but it's not misinformation.

The president's fitness to serve, that's not misinformation.

You were lying to us for four years.

And what was the other one?

I don't remember the other one.

But all three of those are true.

And they targeted you as the individual.

Now, take that one step further.

If you don't change your mind, don't they Tulsi Gabber you?

Don't they Tulsi Gabbard you?

I mean, I hate to make you into a verb,

but you might turn into that, Tulsi.

Hopefully not.

This is exactly why they do this,

because of the chilling effect that it has.

You know,

when you look at that clip, they're talking about misinformation or disinformation.

Obviously, as you pointed out, those things were actually true.

But let's say it was misinformation or disinformation.

That is protected speech under the First Amendment.

That is protected speech and should not and must not be grounds for our government to try to censor or silence us or frankly to surveil what we are doing and where we are going.

They are unwilling to reveal the factors that they deem to be a risk.

I still, obviously, this is now

the whistleblowers have leaked this.

It is public information.

I have seen with my own eyes the proof that I am on the quiet skies list.

It's not just one person's word.

And yet

no one from

the federal government has, you know, from the Biden-Harris administration has reached out to me and to say, hey, anything.

Hey, we made a mistake or, hey, here's the risk or hey, here's the concern or nothing.

Zero.

This cuts to the core of our First Amendment right to free speech, including our right to criticize our own government and our Fourth Amendment right to privacy.

Both of those are what is at the core of the unconstitutional nature of

what they are doing to me.

And by the way, my husband is also

has been experiencing and subjected to the same thing for what?

He's not involved with politics.

He's not engaging in any kind of,

you know, not that it would matter, but any kind of political protest.

He's a filmmaker.

It's not just about me.

And I think this is the point.

No American deserves to live in fear of our own government, whether it's surveillance or retaliation, if you say something or do do something that they don't like.

And this is why they have to be stopped, because we cannot live in a free, we cannot live free and in a free society if we are constantly being monitored by our own government in the same way an inmate in prison is monitored by the prison wardens and guards.

Yeah, the opticon, where you're constantly monitored and watched, was actually deemed cruel and unusual unusual punishment.

But like that matters today.

Tulsi, thank you very much.

I tell you, I have

you know, they're targeting Donald Trump to teach people like me and others, sit down, shut up.

You're on the other side.

We'll do anything to you.

It only makes me want to fight more.

I think that there's a possibility that you were targeted because you're a Democrat or were a Democrat and you spoke out about what was going on in your own house.

And, you know, I think there's Democrats all over that would like to stand up, but, you know,

are you going to get the same treatment that Tulsi got?

Is it worth it?

The answer is yes, by the way, but

just another story.

The answer is yes,

but the fact that

it will have the chilling effect that they are seeking because, you know, I mean, I'm questioning.

What are the things that I may say or the things that I may do or the truths that I expose?

how much will my family have to suffer as a result of that?

What is the cost and the price that those around me will have to pay for this?

It has a very real effect on us directly as we are now, you know, we've known about the weaponization of our governments against political opponents.

We've seen it happening to Donald Trump.

Now I'm experiencing it directly, and others who may not be experiencing it directly are listening to our conversation now and having that second thought of self-censorship, which is exactly the result that they're looking for.

And we can't,

they must be stopped.

That's the bottom line.

They must be stopped.

Tulsi, thank you so much.

Thank you.

You know,

my family was attacked for the same thing.

I mean,

I don't get into it

for reasons that maybe someday I'll talk about, but they came after my family as well.

And

you're not going to bend us.

You're just not going to bend us.

Don't change.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Chasing Embers, a new fiction novel from Glenn Beck, is now on sale.

Find it everywhere books are sold.

You know, it's important to point out, by the way, thank you for buying the book,

Chasing Embers.

It's a dystopian

look at our future, or a possible future, where the government has been taken by public-private partnerships, and it's a dystopian 15-minute city.

And what that's like, and how truth is no longer found.

And these teenagers, it's important to point out that this book is not just fiction.

It's young adult fiction.

We are getting a lot of listeners who are reading it and loving it.

I get all kinds of of letters from adults who are reading it and loving it.

But it's made for

your

15-year-old in the house that

likes to read.

It's important that we get the next generation.

We have already lost two generations and we are going to pay dearly for it.

But the generation coming up is the most conservative in a very long time and we cannot lose them.

Kirk Cameron knows this better better than anything else.

He's actor and producer and just a really good follower of Christ

and he has

put together BraveStoryHour.com and here to tell us a little bit more about it.

How are you, Kirk?

Hey, Glenn, I'm doing fantastic.

Great to talk with you.

Good to talk to you.

So what should we talk about first?

You've got a new book coming out, right?

Born to be brave.

That's right.

That's right.

Really excited about that.

Kind of sharing what I've been learning and some things that have been transforming me over these last two or three,

you know, dystopian world

precursor events that have been happening in our country.

And it's helping me to have courage and bravery and faith and compassion.

So this is a book

for adults.

This is not a kids' book.

This is you and trying to encourage the rest of us to be brave.

Yes, exactly.

You know, as I was traveling the country reading children's books of faith and hope and love in public libraries, Contra, the Drag Queen story hours, we're having thousands and thousands of parents show up with their kids, grandparents show up, and they're the ones that I'm seeing the fear in their eyes, right?

The kids aren't sure what's going on, but the parents do.

And I recognized that they're the ones that need wind in their sails.

They need hope like they need air.

And so I wrote a book about the things that have been giving me hope and courage.

And

I'm asking people the question.

You know, those of us who are members of the family of faith, have you considered that perhaps this cultural setback is really a divine setup for a cultural comeback, a spiritual comeback led by the family of faith?

And I think that it is with all of my heart.

And now's the time for us to lean in and draw down on the promises of God for the sake of heaven and the sake of our children's future here on earth.

Yeah.

You know, I feel that way.

And then

it kind of ebbs and flows a little bit.

But I mean, it's got to start from outside of the church.

Any of these great awakenings always start outside of the church because our churches, all of the pulpits are pretty silent.

And, you know, and the people know that.

And that's why

great awakenings are so exciting because they're not pushed top down.

They come from the bottom up.

That's right.

And Glenn, that's why I'm so thankful for you.

That's why millions of us are thankful for you who

announce the truth.

You're a watchman on the wall, but then you're giving people encouragement and tracks to run on at the grassroots level.

And that's what I'm trying to do as well.

I've been inspired by many of the movements that you have started.

And one of the things that I'm really trying to do is give people an opportunity to get off the couch, stop crying in your Chick-fil-A soup, get involved with your children's world as a parent and as a grandparent.

It's not time for you to check out and collect seashells on a beach in Florida for the rest of your years.

It's time for you to help the next generation succeed in faith, in family, and in national politics.

So I've got this event coming up this summer called See You at the Library.

It's our our spin on See You at the Pole.

So rather than meeting at schools to pray, we're asking families to meet at libraries to sing the national anthem and songs of worship, pray, and read books of Christian virtue and character.

We did it last summer and sent shockwaves through the libraries, had over 300 public story hours.

in 46 different states.

We're looking to 2x that this August.

Some protesters are showing up and they're already calling it Kirkpocalypse because they hate the fact

that hundreds of library story hours hosted by parents in the name of faith, hope, and love and constitutional values are taking the nation by storm at this event on August 24th.

So they're trying to stop it.

But this is exactly what we want to see.

I will tell you, as you look at this, the states that are hosting the most story hours, Texas has 32 story hours, which is kind of disappointing because Texas is gigantic.

But what's more surprising is California has 17.

Minnesota has 11 story hours.

That's not a comfortable place to do that.

And they're standing up.

That's right.

And they're crying out.

Even the hurting states are crying out for a change and a return.

back to the American biblical constitutional values that will lead to our blessing.

So

I'm inviting Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, to come to a story hour and hear about the blessings that, I'm sorry, the values that will lead to the blessings of his state.

I just moved to Tennessee, and I am so excited to be banding together with people of like mind so that we can learn how to create communities around faith and family.

and freedom and then take it back to the coasts.

So this national event, we're inviting everybody to come.

And, Glenn, if I could just tell people, if you want to be a part of See you at the Library, just go to bravebooks.com and there is a map of the entire country.

Find a story hour near you and join them.

Or host a story hour, and we'll send you a story hour toolkit with all the books to read, the songs to sing,

flags, American flags, bookmarks, all the patriotic stuff to make it

a huge success.

Now, I'm looking at the date.

This is the 20th of this month?

22nd of 20th?

The 24th of August.

The 24th.

24th of August.

Okay.

And you're doing it in Washington, D.C., are you not?

Are you going to be at one of those?

Yeah, that's right.

I'm coming to Virginia, and we've got lots of libraries in the D.C.

area.

And boy, there's no place I'd rather be.

It's going to be in Loudoun County.

They're all loud over there in pushing the wrong kinds of values.

So we're showing up right there at ground zero.

And

what's really exciting as well, Glenn, is

we aim to set a Guinness World Record.

We were inspired by drag queens.

On June 1st, the first day of Pride Month,

Guinness World Record chose to show up at the world's largest drag queen story hour.

And they had a whopping 260 people in attendance.

We've already had 3,000 at our very first wholesome family story hour.

So we have invited them to come to document 500 public libraries hosted by citizens reading books of virtue and character, singing songs of patriotism and worship and thanks and praise to God.

We'll see if they show up.

So far, they haven't returned our phone calls and emails, but I know who is going to show up, and that's the 100,000 people across this country who are fired up about taking our country back to the place of blessing and protection.

Amen.

Amen.

Kirk, always good to talk to you.

Congratulations on the success of everything that you're doing.

It is so critical that the projects that you are working on are successful, and we're glad to assist you in any way we possibly can.

God bless you.

Well, thank you.

You're a huge encouragement to us.

Keep up the great work, and thanks for all of your support, Glenn.
