Here's a phrase you don't want to have to use someday if I had only had a burner launcher, a burn a launcher instead of a gun.

If you are like me, I'm a proud gun owner.

I have been taught to carry firearms, and I've been taught that it comes with responsibility.

You know, before I got a gun, I was...

I was really concerned that I wasn't responsible enough, you know, to carry a gun.

And I got over that and and made sure that I was responsible.

Make sure it's locked up, make sure I know how to use it, et cetera, et cetera.

But I'm still hesitant if I were in a grocery store and something was happening, I would still be hesitant to pull the gun because I would be,

do I understand what's really going on here?

And do I have a clear shot?

Well, with a Burna launcher, you can do that and not kill anybody.

That is a great option to have because sometimes you want a deterrent

and not have it deadly.

The Burna launcher, less than lethal.

Get one.

I have one in all of our cars for my girls and my son.

Burna.com/slash Glenn.

Got no room

to compromise.

We gotta stay together

if we're gonna survive.

Stay the straight

and hold the line.

It's a new day, a time to ride.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment

and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America.

Well, there's some news for the Republic

and

Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

There is a shocking poll that shows Trump with a nearly 20-point lead in Iowa.

A 20-point lead.

He won Iowa by 8 points in 2020 and 10 points in 2016.

Experts are now saying if things remain the same, which they won't, but if they remain the same, we could be looking at something like the 1984 re-election of Ronald Reagan.

That would be phenomenal

and

and logical in today's economy and everything else that's going on in the world.

But can it happen?

CNN was freaking out last night.

We're going to begin with some of that in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

Mind over matter.

It works, right?

Well, yes and no.

I believe that the most powerful words in any language is I am.

I'm feeling great.

I'm getting better every day.

I believe in those things.

However,

you know, there is also things that I believe in, like, you know, actual problems with your body because you've done damage.

Inflammation is also something that I can't wish away.

I'm not inflame.

Really?

You look a little puffy, Glenn.

Yeah, that's a food problem.

But anyway,

you can reduce your pain by reducing the inflammation.

And this is not ibuprofen.

This is relief factor.

Relief factor is a natural supplement that you just don't take when you're feeling bad.

You take it it every day, and that reduces the inflammation in your body, which is actually what reduces

much of our illness and our diseases, but also pain.

Relief Factor,

million people, over a million people have tried it.

Give it a try yourself.

Try it for three weeks.

If it's not working in three weeks, probably not going to work for you.

Just take their three-week quick start trial and see if it makes a difference in your life.

It's relieffactor.com.

That's relieffactor.com or 800 for relief.

Let's say hello to Pat Gray, who is filling in one more day for Stu, who is out with his son at a baseball championship in Cooperstown.

Pat, actually, the program.

Thank you.

Actually, two more days.

Today and tomorrow.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

Today and tomorrow.

Okay, good.

Thank you for that.

Let me, we've got a jam show today.

We have Jack Carr on with us, one of the best thriller writers.

And,

you know, as these guys always are, he's right on track with the news.

Wait until you hear that.

But first, let me start with the shock poll in Iowa.

And this was done by the Des Moines Register.

And the Des Moines Register is probably the only real accurate poll, at least historically, in Iowa.

And it shows Trump leading Biden 50% to 32%.

That is

amazing.

And this was just taken after the jury.

So, after they gave the guilty verdict,

they saw another spike in the polls.

So, this is after the guilty verdict.

This means it's going to be much more competitive in states like Wisconsin and Michigan if this indeed holds and is true.

They also found Biden's unfavorable

was 47%

for Trump, but 66% unfavorable for Biden.

He's got a real haul.

He's got a real haul.

Now, let me play something that happened yesterday on CNN.

Listen to this as they are talking about the African-American vote and what's happening to it with the Democrats.

Look at black voters under the age of 50.

Holy cow, folks.

Holy cow, look at this.

Joe Biden was up by 80 points among this group back at this point in 2020.

Look at where that margin has careened down towards.

It's now just get this, 37 points.

That lead has dropped by more than half, Mr.

Berman.

Home.

I just never seen anything like this.

I'm like speechless because you always look at history and you go, okay, this is a historic moment.

If this polling is anywhere near correct, we are looking at a historic moment right now where black voters under the age of 50, which have historically been such a big part of the Democratic coalition, are leaving it in droves.

They are saying that

blacks are now starting to wake up to

this party is

not the helper that we thought it was.

The parties are switching back again.

The party of Lincoln is the GOP, and that was understood up until about the 1960s.

And then some magic trick happened.

I don't know exactly what, but Johnson became the leader of the civil rights.

Johnson, what was it, four years before

stopped that from passing in the Senate.

He was a massive racist.

And

he was the guy who passed the Civil Rights Act, which I believe destroyed the families of blacks.

I believe it broke up the families, broke up marriages, and cast people into poverty.

I personally think I have, I've not done the research on this.

It's one of these things I want to do, but

I haven't done the research on this, but I'm absolutely convinced.

Somebody should write a book on this.

I'm absolutely convinced the same progressives that were so racist in the 50s were the ones that actually put together the meat and potatoes of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 65,

knowing that this would look good, but it would actually destroy families and they could destroy the black family.

And people are now waking up to the fact that these policies are hurting blacks.

And they're saying it could go back to the way it was in the 1950s and from the 1850s to the 1950s

where Republicans are known as

the defender of the little guy and no longer of Wall Street and big business.

And it's so obvious if you look at what's happening with the Democrats, they are all big business, fat cats, you know, George Soros, all of these guys.

It's just big dollars and big corruption.

And

every policy they do, they're hurting everybody in America except for the trust fund babies.

Yeah, it's...

It's mind-boggling.

I mean, you just have to look at like what the event that happened over the weekend with the celebrities.

Who Who are they all for?

They're all for the Democrats every single time.

These are not little people.

These are not average wage earners, the George Clooney's and Julia Roberts of the world.

Why are they so in love with the Democrat machine?

It's because that's who's serving them.

Yeah, they're not serving minorities.

It'd be interesting to see if that comes back around to the Republican Party, who has always been, like you mentioned, the defender of rights among minorities.

Yeah.

And, you know, I shouldn't say they've, we shouldn't say they've always been that.

I think they have,

but they haven't been, you know, direct about it.

I remember, you know, during Reagan and

talking amongst my friends, and I was young at the time, and I'm like, they're just American principles.

If you consider blacks to be an American and blacks to be no different, they might need

somebody to take the foot off off their throat, but they don't need anything special

because that's racist itself.

I've always believed.

It was racist to say, well, they can never make it without a big handout from the government.

No,

I can make it if the government will just stop stepping on my throat.

And I think a lot of Republicans are feeling a very, very, very small portion of what blacks have felt forever.

I can make it just

stop stepping on me.

Stop holding me back.

But

we'll see how that goes.

By the way, speaking of the common people, I think Chuck Schumer really showed that this weekend when

he posted that

for the first time.

Yeah, for the first time.

Because he's always lived in an apartment complex his entire life.

Glenn, you know that.

I mean, he's just such an average guy.

He hasn't had access to a barbecue, apparently, until his daughter and his daughter's wife

invited him over for

Father's Day.

And so he was out grilling.

He was out grilling.

Now, here's what's interesting.

Yeah, here's what's interesting.

First of all, this tweet was to do nothing more than say the housing market is fine.

My daughter and

her wife

could buy a house.

Thank you, LGBTQQIA2 Plus people.

Happy Pride Month.

So he's just, this is a Pride month disguised as a Father's Day thing.

And the problem is he took a picture of

the barbecue.

And

he's cooking the hamburgers, but it shows him putting the cheese on the raw side of the hamburger.

He hadn't even flipped it.

Well, it's a new technique.

It's a new technique.

Where you burn the cheese directly into the burger.

It's great.

Works out really well.

And doesn't make a mess at all of the barbecue.

It's so good.

No, I mean, I would say that that is just the, you know, somebody who's never used a barbecue, but that is somebody who's never been around anyone who's cooked food.

Right.

You know what I mean?

You don't need a barbecue to know that you got to cook both sides of the hamburger before you put the cheese on.

The other little problem is, he is Jewish, right?

He's obviously not kosher if he's putting cheese on a burger.

I don't think that's a kosher thing to do, right?

When we were in Jerusalem,

when we were in Jerusalem, we stayed at a hotel that was very kosher, and they wouldn't even deliver cheese and meat to the same room, let alone put it on the same burger.

No, no.

And it's weird because they begin together, you know what I mean?

Yeah, you're kind of made together.

Wow, that beef that hates that milk product.

Wait,

but yeah, so very kosher.

And, you know, he's obviously not kosher.

Well, I can't say that.

He's obviously, he didn't appear to be kosher because you would have to throw the entire barbecue away

if you had meat and cheese on the the same barbecue.

Yeah.

So anyway,

what else is happening?

Oh, did you see that Biden has issued a World Elder Abuse Awareness Day proclamation?

Oh, wow.

Is that directed at Jill?

Dr.

Jill?

I mean, is there no one in the office who's like,

you know what?

I just don't think you should be the spokesperson for this.

I mean, I just really.

Since you're being abused right now

for the power trip of others,

it's pretty amazing.

There's just never been a clearer case, in my view, of elder abuse.

I mean, mental elder abuse.

They're not, you know, strapping him to a chair or whatever.

Of course, we don't know what happens in the Oval.

We have no idea.

But

it's just

common sense and decency tells tells all of us

if this was our grandparent, we would say, grandpa, you got to stop.

You got to stop.

It's not like there's no evidence of all of these things.

I mean, we see it every single day.

We play multiple instances of this guy melting down before our very eyes.

So

you think that the people close to him don't understand what's going on and what they're doing in order to

allow him to run for president?

He should have been encouraged from the beginning not to run for re-election.

He's going to be 86 and he's already out to lunch and not coming home for dinner.

That's a great phrase.

So, Pat,

I just have to correct this.

You know, all that evidence that you say we've seen,

those are deep fakes.

Oh, that's right.

Are they deep?

Learn this.

Or are they cheap?

I'm not sure.

They're both.

They're both.

She used both,

but I'll get into that here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about American Giant.

There was a time when manufacturing, American manufacturing, was the envy of the world.

If it was made in America, it was quality the world trusted.

Much of that is gone.

Can you think of anything that, well, yeah, I guess, well, computers, Apple, maybe,

spying on the world, we're probably still number one

on that one.

But what products do we make that everybody goes, oh, America is the best?

Used to be pretty much everything America made.

Well, we need to change that.

And

American Giant started producing quality American clothing with American cotton and American workers.

When you buy American Giant, you create jobs for sewers, for cutters, for factory workers, for farmers in towns and cities all across the U.S.

Jobs that bring pride and purpose and stitch people together.

This This is what we need to do.

To restore our country, we have to do some things that we're proud of.

The determination of American Giant is to bring things back.

Next week on this program, they're giving us an exclusive story that is truly remarkable, remarkable story, and will show how...

how easy it really is to bring American manufacturing back to America and make things with pride.

Right now, you can buy your American-made t-shirt.

It's perfect for the holiday at American-giant.com/slash Glenn.

It's American-made.

I'm American-made.

You're American-Amade.

I don't know.

10 seconds, station ID.

Okay, so

Jean-Pierre said yesterday she's very upset about the unedited video.

I'm sorry, the edited videos, the cheap fakes, and the deep fakes that are going out and confusing Americans about how Joe Biden is handling things mentally.

He's as strong as a horse

and probably has as much awareness of where he is as a horse.

But that's a different story.

Here she is yesterday from the White House.

There seems to be a sort of a rash of videos that have been edited to make the president appear especially frail or mentally confused.

I'm wondering if the White House is especially worried about the fact that this appears to be of a pattern that we're thinking more about.

Yeah, we're going to be talking about that.

Stop for a second.

Listen to that question.

Listen to that question.

That question

is

shaped that the president is fine.

There's no problem with the president.

But are you concerned that there's all of these videos coming out that make him appear

to be incapable of getting off a stage by himself.

Here's our answer.

This appears to be a

pattern that we're seeing more about.

Yeah, we and I think you all have called this the cheap fakes video, and that's exactly what they are.

They are cheap fakes video.

They are done in bad faith.

And some of your news organization

have been very clear, have stressed that these

right-wing critics of the president have a credibility problem because of the fact checkers have repeatedly caught them pushing misinformation, disinformation.

And so we see this, and this is something coming from

your part of the world, calling them cheap fakes and misinformation.

And I'll quote the Washington Post where they wrote about this and they said how Republicans use misleading videos to attack Biden in a 24-hour period.

I think that it tells you everything that we need to know about

how desperate Republicans are here.

We're seeing these deep fakes, these manipulated videos.

And it is, again, done in bad faith.

Deep fakes.

Deep fakes.

You know, all I could think of during her spiel there is you saying there will come a time when your eyes will deceive you.

And this is that time.

They are telling us we can't believe our very eyes right now that these aren't real, that they've been edited or manipulated in some way.

No.

I mean, taking something out of context means that you've changed what it is actually about.

Like, you are lying about what they're saying.

Well, there's lying about what happened.

They're saying that this tape that you don't understand, that there was another parachuter

off behind Joe Biden.

We saw that.

We saw that.

They showed that.

And we talked about that.

Correct.

And he did wander off.

And he did say something to the guy.

He did.

Right.

Right.

But still,

everyone else was looking the other way, and it was so uncomfortable for the people there.

You saw Macron look at him like, oh, geez, here he goes.

And then Maloney saw it, and she walked across all of the world leaders to grab him and turn him around.

So, I mean, were they part of this deep fake?

Were they part of it saying that we're just trying to make him look low, you know, really old and decrepit and not able to, you know, carry on a single thought at a time?

No,

no, there's no fake there.

That he might have had his own intention of, you know,

I need my pudding and maybe that soldier is bringing it to me.

I don't know what his intention was, but everybody there viewed it the same way the rest of the country did.

It's incredible from the people who brought us the video of George Bush trying to open that Chinese door and not be able to do it.

Glenn back.

Isn't it interesting that people who are telling you that Joe Biden is at the top of his game mentally are part of the same group who are willing to tell you that this economy is the best we've ever seen.

At some point,

you know, the problem is no longer mere incompetence, it's downright malicious intent to destroy our country from the inside out.

And your dollar is on the way to becoming worthless.

There's going to come a day when you look back on me saying these things and you either breathe a sigh of relief that you paid attention or you went, I wish I would have listened to him.

Please, please.

The choice is yours.

Your wealth is only as secure as you make it.

Well, there is another new poll out or prediction, this one from The Economist, showing that Donald Trump has a 75%

chance of winning the next election.

If things continue the way they are, this could be a stunning, stunning election and victory for the GOP.

Now, it is really important that we also have not just Republicans in the House and Senate, but the right Republicans in the House and Senate.

I don't endorse people, but

the people I know that live in Michigan, they have all said, Glenn, you have to endorse this woman.

I don't endorse anybody, but I wanted to have her on because she's the real

grassroots candidate for the Senate, and she's from Michigan, and Michigan could determine party control if she could pull this off.

Dr.

Sherry O'Donnell is the U.S.

Senate candidate for the Republican Party.

She's a physician, an author, mission leader, speaker.

She was also the Michigan state chair, or is actually the state chair for U.S.

Term Limits.

Amen on that.

She has taken her own time and her own money, and

she led a medical mission to Ukraine funded entirely by her.

She's won all kinds of awards.

She's honored to be recognized by Michigan's prestigious She Leads, which is a strong Christian organization that has based its members' professional lives and work ethics on Christian conservative values.

She is the grassroots candidate for the U.S.

Senate.

She is particularly insightful on COVID, the lockdowns, and medical freedom.

She was a physician at the time, obviously, of COVID, and she went and volunteered to go into New York City to help people in New York City.

So she's got a few things to say about that.

Also, border security.

We'd like to welcome her to the program, Dr.

Sherry O'Donnell.

How are you, Sherry?

I'm very well, Glenn.

Thank you so much.

I've watched your show for years and I love it and I appreciate that.

And I know that Don Peter is a personal friend, so thank you so much.

Yes, yes.

So you are quite impressive.

Let's start with medical security.

I don't think we've learned the lesson.

from COVID, and now with this bird flu thing going around,

I'm afraid we're up for round two.

You want to talk about medical freedom?

I do.

So, as you said, Glenn, I was in New York City during COVID.

Because of my disaster relief experience, I got a phone call on a Friday afternoon asking if I'd serve in New York City.

I served 93 days, and I knew something went awry when I was asked to sign death certificates of patients that did not die of COVID.

And then, when I refused to, they grabbed them for me and said, that's okay, we'll get somebody else to.

Never in my career of almost 25 years have I been forbidden to write medications that have been safe and effective in all categories of drug distribution: the pediatric patient, the elderly, the pregnant, and the lactating mom.

And something was just terribly awry.

I've recently been asked to join the Geneva Project to tell the World Health Organization we are disassociating with them and actually coming up with a creative plan.

The World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization were meeting in Geneva.

We were going to follow that up.

There was a group, and I was asked to be one of 80 worldwide leaders because of my disaster relief experience and international medical because of the the fact that I am running and because I stood up during COVID.

Our nation can never, never experience what they did during COVID and repeat that.

COVID was real, but how we responded was surreal.

And yes, I do think that they are planning on the H5N1, the avian bird flu, to take place again and try in an attempt to lock us down.

We can't tolerate that.

So tell me about, I mean, didn't we again, weren't we messing with the bird flu?

And haven't we made it much, much more

virulent and lethal?

Glenn, we have, and that's what the gain of function is all about.

And yes, there's been evidence that once again we're doing gain of function, which I think needs to be banned internationally.

But the gain of function is making certain that a virus is more virulent and making certain that it can go from species to species.

And yes, there's been some gain of function study done on the avian flu with an attempt to make it more virulent and go from species to species.

So they've made everything in science and medicine so unbelievable.

I mean, I know a lot of people that no matter what they say this time, they won't do it.

And because they didn't correct the mistakes that they made during COVID and even admit to the mistakes, they've lost all credibility.

So what do we do if we were hit by an avian flu?

We stand up for our constitutional rights, which do not include mandates and does not include shutting down.

And we tell those governors and our state, Governor Whitmer here in our state, we're shutting our state down, all except for her.

And this two-tiered judicial system, we saw it glaringly then.

We can't allow that to happen again either.

But we need to understand that what they're doing, they're going by the playbook, Lynn, and we cannot allow that to happen.

We need to exercise our constitutional rights, and we need to get people in office that understand the Constitution and will stand with we the people.

Yeah, are we a democracy or a republic?

We're a republic.

And what's the difference?

Why is that important?

Well, that is important.

Our constitutional writers and our forefathers understood the difference.

And we need to understand that is we the people, by the people, for the people.

And as a republic, we need to stand for those rights and understand that that's what our forefathers intended.

All right.

Your 21-point border security plan.

Tell me about that.

So, Glenn, I wrote this, and after doing some research and understanding that we are letting in millions of people, I met Tom Holman, who's a former director of ICE, and it's at ACPAC.

And when I met Tom, I said, Tom, I've got this.

Would you do me a favor?

If you have any time, would you please look at it?

He said, you know what, Dr.

O'Donnell, I'll look at it.

You send it to me.

If I like it, I'll endorse you.

If I don't, I...

I will educate you.

And Glenn, he's done both.

But the 21-point plan is to understand, first off, these people people coming in seeking asylum, they are not all truly asylum seekers.

Asylum is that they've been displaced and that they're coming into the country to seek international protection.

Not all of them are seeking asylum legitimately.

So the asylum seekers remain in Mexico, empowering the Border Patrol to do their job, unclogging the court system that is allowing that to happen.

My plan is on my website, docsherry2024.com, and I am the candidate that's been down there, five points of entry, seeing that firsthand, and I'm here to tell you it looks a lot like a refugee camp that I've seen so many times overseas.

What is our biggest problem that we have to tackle?

I mean, there are so many things that could destroy us.

What's the one thing that keeps you up at night?

The border, and primarily, Glenn, because that has such a rippling effect downstream.

It is affecting national national security.

It is

affecting our inflation.

When we're giving illegal immigrants $5,000

at the border and then allowing them to go where they want, that is affecting, you know, we've seen it here in Michigan now, a couple murders by the illegal immigrants, and they're walking our streets free.

As a physician, I'm seeing and understand that TB is coming back in.

Sexually transmitted diseases are coming back in.

And of course, Sphentanol is coming in by the hundreds of pounds.

So number one, the border, but then I think the thing that affects every American right now is the inflation.

And as a business owner, I feel the chokehold of the over-regulations, the over-tyranny, the over-taxation that the government is doing.

I have signed the no-new new tax form and pledge, and I'll continue to fight for us when I'm in the Senate.

So do you have any

ideas on

how to

because inflation is not being caused by the American people.

They say the economy is so hot.

Well, people aren't spending money because they don't have the money.

So it's not the people, it's the government.

How do you rein this in with two parties that don't seem serious on it?

Well, first off, I think a lot goes with transparency.

I think our salaries of the senators in Congress need to be well made known.

But I think we stop the frivolous spending.

I'm not okay with sending billions of dollars to Ukraine when when our border is open.

I'm also not okay with printing of monopoly money is what I call it because we're spending money that we don't have.

We also have to stop some of the entitlement programs that are continuing to spend our money.

We need to understand the difference between our wants and our needs.

And right now we are frivolously spending and we cannot continue to do that.

Who would you most like to align yourself with in the Senate?

I'd love to be your team.

Ted Cruz.

And Rand Paul are my heroes in the Senate.

I love that they stand up.

They're kind of a no-nonsense people.

When, you know, they've gone after my orcas.

They've stood up during COVID.

They certainly are my heroes in the Senate.

Yeah.

I will tell you, I think Rand Paul is single-handedly going to be responsible for any punishment that

Fauci may receive.

I'm afraid that they're going to throw Fauci's assistant who was doing bad things himself.

But I think they're going to make him the fall guy and Fauci's going to walk away.

Any thoughts on that?

I hope that's not the case.

Fauci has caused and done, committed 26 felons, Glenn.

26 felons, and a felon needs to be behind bars.

Instead, what they're doing to Trump is ridiculous.

And I'm sorry, as far as I'm concerned, Anthony Fauci has the blood of hundreds of thousands of people on his hands when he had the audacity to say, follow the science, and then to say, I am the science.

And his ridiculum caused hundreds of thousands of people to die.

Real quick, are you concerned at all about this march to death,

especially in Canada?

But our doctors, you know, our universities now, if you're not in on all of this woke bullcrap, you're not going to make it as a doctor.

And that kind of stuff is, we've seen that in the past happen with medical science.

And it's extraordinarily dangerous.

Glenn, it is dangerous.

And, you know, during COVID, I kept wondering, where were my colleagues and why are my colleagues silenced?

And why were they not willing to stand up?

I felt like John the Baptist in the wilderness saying, hello, and just hearing it echo back at me.

But we've got to have people in office that will stand up and have the backbone to stand up.

Right now, even the transgender surgeries that are being taught at medical schools and residencies, we've got to get back to the physicians being empowered, the physicians having the relationship with their patients without the government telling us what to do.

I'm the one that sits with my patients 20 or 30 minutes, hear their story and understand what the medications and so on should be that's best for them.

And together we design that program, not allowing the government to have their finger and their

oppressive thumb on us, but we the physicians and the medical organizations need to stand up and say, no, we've had enough.

We're going to protect our patients.

We took a Hippocratic oath, and that means something to me.

The primary in Michigan, even though it's in August,

there's 45 days of early absentee voting.

So the ballots drop in mid-June.

I don't know if they've already, but they will be in a few days.

And you've been listening to Dr.

Sherry O'Donnell, U.S.

Senate candidate.

She is running for the Republican U.S.

Senate race in Michigan.

Michigan is so important.

It could determine party control.

She's the grassroots leader.

And

Sherry, it is great.

If I did endorse somebody, you would be the kind of candidate I would endorse.

Thank you so much.

Glenn, thank you so much.

Again, the webpage is docshery2024.com.

Glenn, thank you for having me on your show.

Continue the great work you're doing.

Thank you.

You can follow her on Twitter at Sherry4Senate.

And again, you can get involved and help her campaign, Doc Sherry2024.

We have got to have the right kind of people in Congress and in the Senate.

We can't just have Republicans.

We have to have the ones that understand the Constitution and will fight for the Constitution.

And she seems like one of those fighters.

DocSherry2024.com.

All right, I want to talk to you a little bit about Patriot Mobile.

I had a friend write to me a couple of weeks ago, and he said, Glenn, I don't know why I didn't listen to you before.

He said, but one of the big three just raised their rates on me.

And he said, it was, I mean, just unbelievable how high my rate went.

He said he was paying over, he has four phone lines, and he said he was paying over $420 or $450 every single month.

So he said, I immediately thought of your commercials, and I went and I called

Patriot Mobile.

What happened when he called Patriot Mobile?

He's now paying for those same four phone lines just over $100 a month instead of $400 a month.

Make the switch to Patriot Mobile.

They're a great company.

They're the only Christian conservative phone company out there.

They really are working at the grassroots level to help defend and protect our Constitution.

You get the same great coverage because you have access to the same same three major networks that everybody is on.

And they have a 100% U.S.-based customer service team that will show you how much money you can save every single month.

This is an easy way to do your phone service.

You know, dogs tend to be

a reflection of the people they live with.

And yesterday, I haven't heard this yet, but somebody asked me, did you hear him imitate the reporters?

He's just mocking them as they're leaving the White House Oval yesterday.

Listen to this.

Are you worried about your war?

Are you worried about the war?

Listen to that.

Just laughing at him and like,

he's just, he's not a nice fellow.

No.

So charming, though, isn't he?

Chubb was just really charming.

And you know what I like about him is he's returned us to normalcy.

Right.

You know,

we couldn't have any of that crazy stuff that was happening under Trump.

We got to go back to normal.

Chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more, can make me feel like a spectator in my own life.

Botox, onobotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine.

It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month.

It's the number one prescribed branded chronic migraine preventive treatment.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

Alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck, and injection, side pain, fatigue, and headache.

Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness.

Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection.

Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Why wait?

Ask your doctor, visit BotoxchronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment

and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America.

Yesterday, at this time, we had Dr.

Haiman with us.

He is a

surgeon that blew the whistle on Texas Children's Hospital, and now the DOJ is coming after him with charges of felonies.

He can't make it today.

We're going to follow this story for you, but he did send a message for me to read to you.

He said, Glenn, we needed a miracle, and your listeners provided one for us yesterday.

When we saw the support coming in after the show, I couldn't believe what was happening, especially when

I now know I'm facing at least a decade in prison.

The support from your listeners means more than you will ever, ever know.

That's from Dr.

Heim.

We'll tell you more about that coming up.

But next, I have an exclusive on Pride Month from inside the Target

administration.

Target stores

made a big deal about Pride Month last year.

You boycotted.

They changed.

But

what was really happening behind the scenes?

Oh my, we have another whistleblower on Target, and we'll share that in an exclusive story in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you quickly, realestate agentsitrust.com, this is my company.

So I'm paying for this commercial, so I'm going to keep it very, very short.

You need an expert to help you, somebody that you can trust get everything done the right way.

Somebody with a great business practice knows the best business practices, knows your market, and listens to you.

You'll find those agents.

I don't charge you a dime for passing on their names.

It's realestate agentsitrust.com.

That's realestate agentsitrust.com.

So

you're the first to hear this exclusive leak that we received from a source inside Target headquarters who thought the public needed to know how some of Target's employees responded to last year's boycott.

First, let me speak directly to the people that made all this possible.

Women.

I know it was hard to boycott Target.

We were there.

We as husbands and men saw you like you weren't busy enough.

We saw you drive.

past that bright red sign and go from store to store to be able to boycott.

And with us, with Bud Light, I mean, it's beer.

We'll just reach in in the fridge for another kind of beer.

Victory, real victory, is yours with Target.

But it's Pride Month again, which means it's been one year since Target rolled out a collection of Pride onesies, tuck-friendly bathing suits, chest binders for girls, and apparel made by some kind of transgender Satan apologist.

Not today, Jesus, says Satan.

This year,

Pride Month, Target has a much more toned-down collection.

Like, for instance, let me show you their new Pride Month charcuterie board that says it's giving charcuterie.

Has no rainbows or pride symbols on it at all.

It's just a wooden board.

I guess maybe Target thinks charcuterie is gay enough on its own.

I'm not really sure.

But it's a tame collection of rainbow wine bottles and clothes and nothing like last year.

Also, unlike last year, there is is nothing for kids.

So victory.

Now some Target locations won't have any Pride merchandise this year.

It'll only be sold online in the stores where Target says they've

seen historically the strongest sales demand.

Okay, that makes sense as a business.

To be clear, Target, I don't think, is doing this because corporate had some road to Damascus moment and decided, you know what, we should depoliticize this company and maybe just sell things people want.

Remember, this is the same company that in 2016, when most didn't even know, you know, that there were 96 genders, they said, put a statement out that said, We welcome, I'm quoting, transgender team members and guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender identity.

Well, that makes me comfortable when my kids want to go in and try something out.

Their 2023 sustainability and governance report, this Target is one of them that does ESG on their own,

says their goal is to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.

The Target website says Target is an inclusive and anti-racist organization.

That's key.

It's not non-racist.

It has to be, you have to have a little racism to combat racism, you see.

So the way I see it, there's only one reason Target has pulled back on their pride collection, and that is you.

But now Target is in a really, really tricky position.

And that's because on one hand they can't afford another boycott.

The New York Post reported that after last year's boycott, Target lost $10 billion in market valuation in 10 days.

That's a lot.

On the other hand, they have created a brand around being basically woke.

And just like Disney, the inmates are now in charge of the asylum.

And employees at Target, many, are very woke and militant.

Now, to make matters really complicated, that radical staff they have to deal with was not happy last year.

Last year, our team was given exclusive access to internal messages that took place on Target's Slack channel for their Pride Plus Business Council.

We found culture wars that are taking place because Target

is

taking a stand and saying, wait, we're going to slow down on this.

And the people were not just boycotting.

Internally, the employees started a little revolt.

And let me show you what we were sent and found.

Last year, when you were deciding to boycott Target for their choice to sell chest binders to children, package underwear, Target hosted a town hall to discuss the move to pull back on some of their more controversial merchandise.

The people of the Pride Plus Business Council were not pleased inside of Target.

One said, quote, it feels like leadership wants to keep support for LGBTQ causes on the down low, like they want to be able to point it out to people, you know, make a fuss, but they don't want to advertise it for people who might disagree.

Senior management for

Philanthropic Operations agreed, saying, quote, reasoning with the down low piece for real.

See, what they're saying is,

Target,

while we were saying Target went too far, the employees were upset that they hadn't gone far enough and now they were pulling back.

One employee said, see,

we need to cater to the bigots to get our sales up.

Okay.

But it wasn't just the town hall announcement that started the internal firestorm at Target.

It was was the comments in the community chat while it happened.

The leaked messages were given to us in backward order.

So as we went through them, we saw the Pride Plus Business Council's reaction to the comments before we saw the comments themselves.

Remember, we weren't given access to the actual

conversation, just the comments.

So we don't know what was said by the Target leadership during the meeting, but we were given snapshots and screenshots of what happened in the chat.

So we don't know what they said at the leadership of Target, but it must have been pretty horrible.

Based on just the reactions, the comments must have been awful from Target leadership.

Here are a few examples of what the chat said during it, how the Pride Plus Business Council was reacting.

JPEG 22 here, I've been through a lot in my life.

I have PTSD to show for it.

And I got to say that was the most gaslighty, dystopian thing I've ever witnessed in a while.

Here's another one, JPEG 24.

We need to protect ourselves.

There are consequences for

hateful statements and displays.

So now what did Target say that made their employees say we got to protect ourselves from these hateful statements and displays?

Number 27, a few more.

I'm still in shock and disgusted.

I'm sure a lot of people are examining whether they even want to continue being a team member after all of this.

Kind of hard to get back to work after that one, huh?

So at this point, we are assuming something truly terrible had happened in that community chat.

The acronym HR was repeated over and over again in the chat, and people were talking about filing ethics complaints.

One woman put the name and email of an intern who she said was advocating for discrimination.

Wow, another intern was exposed for basically putting thumbs down on a comment, which prompted one of the lead buyers for Target's Pride Collection to say, each person should be submitted to ethics.

An intern who gave a thumbs down on a comment should be submitted to ethics.

So what horrible things were these people saying to elicit such an extreme reaction?

Surely they had had to be sexist, racist tirades that started this chaos.

Well, here's what we found, and

you may want to sit down for this one because it's pretty darn shocking.

Here's one of the comments that we found.

A woman who

was a Christian

Hang on just a second that wrote this.

I'm a Christian and I don't support violence against guests or team members.

Okay,

I also don't hate people who view differently than myself.

However, for some to say my biblical views are disgusting, that's not inclusive.

Wow.

Now it gets worse.

The people in the chat need to take a look at past year's Pride assortment and compare it to this year's assortment.

The backlash this year has been specific to gender plus children.

To imply leadership is now bowing down to bigots is highly offensive then this a lead designer who had been at target for 25 years defended the people who felt a little weird about target partnering with a designer who currently produces products that say satan respects pronouns

this

lead designer at target said so someone who doesn't think a partnership with an artist who glorifies Satan in their products is a bigot?

Would Target partner with a similar individual who had a racist themed product?

Or would you have the same feeling towards those partnerships?

Maybe quit calling names because their beliefs are different than yours.

The most inflammatory comment that we could find was made by a woman who started working at Target in the early 2000s.

She said, quote,

not all people agree that giving hormones to kids, which only provides long-term health issues, is a good thing.

So inclusivity means ignoring 95% of the population to make sure 5% are able to keep grooming kids, end quote.

Read about some of the stories, I'm still quoting now, of the young girls who have had a masectomy at 13 and are now in their 20s and have horrible health issues from the hormones that they've taken.

I don't care what an adult does, but kids should be left alone.

Is that unreasonable?

My favorite comment was this one, JPEG 45.

Our leadership team has a difficult decision to make.

They answer to something called shareholders.

We are also responsible for thousands of team member jobs.

Please don't attack your leadership or your fellow team members when you don't know their heart.

We are a business and this is capitalism.

Good day now, end quote.

Well, Target needed to send out a company-wide letter addressing the comments before the end of the day.

And here's what they said.

Several comments made during the town hall violated Target's policies.

Those incidences are being

addressed directly.

Target does not tolerate discrimination or hate speech of any kind.

Wait, the ones who just said don't attack the leadership, that's hate speech.

That wasn't enough for some of the members of the Pride Plus Business Council.

The idea was floated in their chat on the day of the town hall that they needed more organized response.

That response came about a month later in the form of a list of demands sent to Target leadership, which we were also given access, exclusive access to.

In the memo, They said they wanted from Target, quote, an acknowledgement of harm, a sincere apology, and a clear statement of unwavering support for the LGBTQ plus community.

They wrote, we have always regarded Target as an inclusive and progressive company.

However, these recent events have called into question the company's commitment to these values.

They said the removal of some of the Pride collection was disappointing and distressing.

So for the company to atone, they needed Target to acknowledge in writing the harm done to the LGBTQ plus community, explicitly the trans and

non-binary members of the community, forge partnerships with prominent LGBTQ advocacy groups, and immediately reinstate the pride collection in full, which we know didn't happen.

donate to LGBTQ causes and implement sensitivity training for employees and cease all contributions to politicians and organizations that do not support the LGBTQ community.

This is so crazy because here is a company that supports LGBTQ

way beyond what other companies do.

And they're not woke enough.

Even after all that pressure from within the company and all the pressure outside the company from people like Governor Newsom accusing Target CEO of selling out the LGBTQ plus community to extremists.

We're the extremists.

Target still toned down its pride collection this year and they did it because of you.

This is a testament of what you can do when we come together.

Which brings me to the point of this whole story.

What is this story really all about?

Because I'm not showing you all of this stuff, you know, saying that Target has issues.

We know that already.

It's why you staged a boycott.

What is this story really all about?

I'll tell you in 60 seconds.

First, the cold hard truth is abortion still is going on and it will be with us for a very long time.

It's the battle of hearts and minds.

That's going to take a long time to win, and that's the only way to win.

Unlike the people at Target, we don't want to force anybody in anything to really conquer.

You change the hearts and minds of people.

And you see the women going in as troubled women that are backed into a corner, many of them, don't want to have an abortion, but don't have any support.

And you get the people on the left to see babies as babies.

That's when things will change.

Pre-born offers God's love and life to protect hurting women and their precious babies, and you can be a part of all of this.

They first provide ultrasounds, and that changes the way a mom views what's inside of her.

$28 sponsors one of those ultrasounds.

$140 helps you rescue five babies.

It's a tax-deductible donation, and it will help provide women who choose life with assistance for up to two years as well.

So please

do your best.

Do whatever you can.

Donate, dial pound250.

Say the keyword baby.

That's pound250, keyword baby, or visit preborn.com/slashbeck.

That's preborn.com/slash back, sponsored by pre-born 10 seconds station ID.

Okay, so I wanted to give you this exclusive story today on Target

because I want you to see a couple of things here.

First of all,

We do have the power to make a difference.

We have more power than you think you do.

That's why they need to shut people up using fear, okay?

The second thing is, is a little bit of hope and sadness as well.

Wokeness will always destroy itself.

It's like the plant in Little Shop of Horror.

You give it a little bit of blood and it will eventually eat you.

And that's what's happening to companies like Target.

They created a monster and they planted it inside their own company and it's eating them alive.

It's as if all of Target's virtue signaling came to life in the form of some of their employees and now it's the battle to the death.

It's the same in higher education.

There are those professors who have been teaching revolutionary theories for years but are now being run out by the revolutionaries they created.

Same thing in the Democratic Party.

The new generation of progressives is threatening the Democratic establishment who used to be the radicals for not being radical enough.

Wokeness always eats its own and it's because the entire ideology is fueled by deconstruction and critical theories that rage against the hierarchy or the establishment.

And you know what happens when you're in a movement for a while?

You, the radical, become the establishment.

If you climb your way to the top of the woke ladder, you'll find yourself on the wrong side of the movement eventually, and the new revolutionaries always destroy the old old ones the ending of the story for places like Target and Disney is inevitable and I think most of us understand that innately which is why we watch these stories unfold like it's the end of the Daytona 500 we know someone's going to crash it's just a matter of time so what do we do do we sit back point and laugh now that would be tempting and fun a little bit but not useful because in the short term whatever crash is coming is going to affect affect all of us.

There are plenty of sane people, normal people that work at Target, like the ones that we saw trying to be reasonable in their community chat.

All of us are going to be caught in the crossfire of these woke institutions as they implode.

We just need to be ready to fill the vacuum that it's going to create.

In the long term, we have to focus on creating an alternative, alternative business, movies, media, everything.

That's what we need.

Alternatives.

Kind, gracious, decent alternatives.

You build it.

They destroy, but you build, you restore.

Wokeness is a destructive force.

We just have to hold on to our values and be ready to rebuild.

All right, let me tell you about our sponsor, this half hour, it's Relief Factor.

What are you planning to do this summer?

What are you planning on doing?

Well,

what would you be doing this summer if you weren't in pain all the time?

Would you be willing to consider a possible solution?

Relief Factor is a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain naturally.

Let's say you're going on vacation in three weeks.

Great.

Try it.

Get it right away and try this for three weeks.

Your vacation may be a lot better and enjoyable.

It's 100% drug-free.

It uses a unique formula of natural ingredients developed by doctors, and it doesn't mask the pain for a short time.

It helps reduce or even eliminate it.

In three weeks or less, you'll know it's working because you'll feel the difference all day, every day.

So that's why they ask you to try the three-week quick start.

If it's not working for you in three weeks, it's probably not going to work for you.

But millions of people have tried this.

70% go on to order more month after month.

It's relieffactor.com, 800, the number four relief.

800, the number 4 relief.

Listen to all your favorite conservative voices at Blazetv.com/slash Glenn.

Promo code voter fraud.

So there's some disturbing news here.

And

don't worry, I'm going to give you some good news right after this about this situation.

It looks like

Israel and Hezbollah is going to go into an expanded war.

This will be very, very bad

because it will look more like a conventional war.

And Hezbollah has beaten Israel a couple of times.

There's no way to an agreement.

So it looks like it's moving to a wider regional war.

Iran now is started up their new cascades of centrifuges.

This, if they can cascade these things, you can make nuclear weapons

and purify everything that you need

for the nukes.

And they have just started new ones up again.

Israel is upgrading their nuclear arsenal.

The spending on nuclear weapons on the nine countries that have them now, we were spending, all of us are spending $3,000 per second

to modernize all of our missiles, $94 billion just last year.

The Kremlin

is saying that NATO is going to cause a nuclear war.

And there were marchers on the street of a group of Russian National Liberation Movement.

It was on the street earlier

last week.

They were marching through the rain.

You can see them in this video, marching through the rain while listing the warheads that they wanted directed at U.S.

cities.

So they were saying, use this warhead in for New York.

It's getting a little frightening.

Now, George Washington believed that the only way that you could win the Revolutionary War was to be men of merit.

And that meant doing things that brought

favor in the eyes of God on our troops.

So

your purple heart, which was the award of merit, the first one that went to non-officers, that purple heart was not for being wounded.

That was for

doing something great in the eyes of God, helping somebody in need, feeding somebody, doing anything that

the Lord would be pleased by.

That way we could try to be on his side.

There is now a spiritual reawakening and revival in the IDF, the Israeli Defense Force.

And

this is going to be the way

we defeat evil because we are fighting against pure sheer evil.

And the Israelis have woken up to that.

And

there is Josh Friedman.

He is a rabbi in Israel.

He moved his family to Israel.

He wanted to live in the Jewish homeland and help his company or his country through a non-profit that he started, Israel Select Charity Fund.

Now,

there is this movement by about 8,000 soldiers who were not really religious.

They got into the war and they have found God and they are

wanting to wear what's called tufillin.

Tufalin is the scriptures that you would wear on your forehead.

It comes from

the scriptures in Deuteronomy.

You know, when you lie down, when you get up, bind your scriptures as a sign on your hand and let them serve as a frontlet between your eyes.

So God in the Old Testament says that you should wear this.

apparatus that puts Torah scriptures on your forehead and then wraps all the way down on your arm.

Okay.

And it's supposed to be a constant reminder of God and his word.

Okay.

So there are 8,000 soldiers now that want this device that, and I'm sorry, I don't mean to be offensive to anybody who is Jewish

to fill in.

Thank you.

I don't mean to be

you know, offensive in any of this, trying to describe it.

I have really very little knowledge on it, but I I know it is important

for

people who are very devout and want to follow the letter of the law.

So there's 8,000 of these guys who have joined the IDF, and they

now want to wear it as a reminder of who delivered them from the Egyptians, who preserved their people throughout history, and who is dwelling with them now, God.

So these things are expensive.

I don't remember what they cost, but they're expensive.

And Rabbi Friedman is on a mission to provide these devices to every IDF soldier who requests one.

Both Jewish and non-Jewish donors have now stepped to the plate.

His Israel Select Charity Fund has raised, they have a $4 million goal.

They have raised $3.4 million out of that $4 million goal.

That's enough to provide

for the soldiers that have already requested them, the 8,000, but the demand is growing fast.

This is

the Jewish people waking up back to their faith and turning back to God and saying, you are our only hope.

Remember, the Lord says, if my people will turn back to me,

I will help them.

I will heal their land.

That's exactly what they're doing.

We haven't done that yet, but we need to.

But here's a way we can help them because

we all need to understand

we could very easily fall into a nuclear war.

And there's no coming back from that.

There's no winner in that ever.

All of the tests, all the trials, all the war games, it never works out well for humans.

So

I would like to ask you if you would donate anything

to Rabbi Friedman's mission to connect Jewish men and soldiers to God the way the Old Testament tells them to stay in touch with God and make sure that he is the focus of all they do.

I don't think there's a better thing than people turning to God

in a war and turning to God when their country and everything else is at risk, if it's honest and sincere.

God will honor that.

And it will honor those people who help his people.

I know this is all stuff that if you're not a religious person, you might think is crazy.

But

those of us who are Christian and believe, those who help

Israel and the Jewish people will be blessed.

Those who fail to or curse will be cursed.

And this is a

really great way to help them.

If you would like to find out more, go to Israelselect.org.

Israelselect.org.

There's $500,000 left in this.

This audience has raised that, you know, in like two days in the past.

And I don't know if this is something that connects with you, but it connects with me deeply.

And I wanted to share it with you because I think when we turn back to God all our problems cease and I'd like to help them reconnect to God and maybe that will help us reconnect to God in our own country.

Israelselect.org.

That's IsraelSelect.org.

Well, that's going to be mighty popular on social media feeds, don't you think, Pat?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, people are going to love that.

Yeah.

They're going to love that.

Sure, it's already being lauded on Twitter as we speak.

Yeah.

Right.

Did you see that the famine has been canceled now?

I did in Gaza.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Isn't that interesting?

Uh-huh.

Isn't that interesting?

Yeah.

They were saying, the UN was saying that there was going to be a famine

by

May or June, and it was just going to wipe people out.

And in fact,

food insecurity now is

not a problem

in Gaza.

Apparently, the UN

counts the calories and the food that's coming in, but only if it's delivered through an official UN banner.

So they don't count anything else, okay?

And they don't count everything even that they deliver.

So, you know, they said that there was going to be food insecurity because this was going to leave the Gazans

with only about 40% of the calories that they need.

When you look at the actual number of pallets of food and the food that is being brought in

by countries,

you know,

even Israel, the United States, and private organizations, the upper end of the caloric needs is now being estimated at 157%,

and the lowest is 75%.

So if you look at the

at the most conservative,

it's about 100 to 109%

caloric intake

that's needed, about 109%.

So,

yeah.

And that's from, isn't that from the Integrated Food Security Phase Classifications Famine Review Committee?

I believe it is.

I believe it is.

Is that just off the top of your head?

I don't.

Just right off the top of my head.

Yeah, right off the top of your head.

Do you not follow pretty much everything the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification Famine Review Committee does?

I follow all their work.

I will tell you, I met one of the global leaders of that.

His business card was enormous.

It was like, yeah, like a foot and a half long.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So, yeah, it's interesting that the UN and none of the media are reporting on any of this

because they don't they don't

this isn't about the actual truth about anything.

This is about you know stirring people up against Israel

and

You know everything is taken from Hamas as gospel and nothing is taken from Israel or you know

Even what was the United Nations group again?

You're not talking about the integrated food security phase classifications famine review committee, are you?

Right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, they apparently the media goes right directly to them.

Yes.

You know, yes.

Because that's the first thing that's important when you're thinking.

You know, I shouldn't, I probably shouldn't be surprised, but it still amazes me that every article cites the Gaza Health Ministry, which is Hamas.

They cite their numbers in every single story about what's going on in the Gaza Strip.

And they use their numbers of 37,000 plus dead and injured, and mostly in almost every case, they say, and that's mostly women and children.

Are you kidding me?

And you don't even question the source at all?

Well, it's the source the world

UN

can't remember it.

The integrated food security phase, classifications pan and review committee.

Yeah.

Yeah, that committee is great.

I have to to tell you,

Lara Loomer, who

is not somebody that I necessarily agree with all the time,

sent out a tweet yesterday, sad to see another ill-advised endorsement by President Trump.

Now, she's a huge fan of President Trump, who counts on members of his team to properly vet candidates for him.

It's not like he actually knows all of these candidates who seek his endorsement.

I love President Trump, but it's very clear whoever's supposed to be vetting candidates for him is dropping the ball.

It's a very disturbing pattern that I've seen over and over again in the last few months, and it needs to be on the record.

Celeste Malloy, he just

endorsed.

Celeste Malloy is known as a Trump hater in Utah, condemned January 6ers and called President Trump a dictator and suggested that people should not get behind him after January 6th.

Who on earth suggested that she should receive the coveted Trump endorsement?

Very disappointed to see so many Trump haters get Trump endorsements.

By the way, the governor of Utah just sent out a tweet or something

where he said, my wife just had this dream about punching Donald Trump in the face over and over again.

Guess that's not going to be helpful in re-election.

Well,

why would you even

so bad?

So bad.

I'm really, I am concerned as well about some of these endorsements.

And Mike Lee wrote to me last night, like at 11.30, and he's like, did you see?

And I'm like, no, Mike, I'm asleep.

But

he's going to be on to talk to us about Celeste Malloy.

This is really unfortunate.

And I don't think Donald Trump knows.

You know, he's just trusting some people and

they're picking some of the very, really wrong people because

they've been against

a lot of the things that,

you know, we feel passionately about.

Like January 6th, you know, some bad guys,

some good guys, a lot of grandmas went to prison and it wasn't right.

What's the real story on that?

Celeste not really the one to help us find that.

Let me talk to you a little bit about Rough Greens.

Rough Greens is something that I feed Uno.

And, you know, you want the best for your kids, you know, the best food for your kids when you're raising your kids.

And,

you know, I think I actually love my dog maybe more than I do some of my kids.

You know, they're asleep in my favorite chair.

I can't kick my kids out, but my dog I can kick out, and he'll just go to sleep on the floor.

You know, eventually he craps in the front yard, but I think I have maybe at least one child that might end up doing that anyway.

So Rough Greens is something that I like to put on my dog's food because it makes him healthier.

It's a supplement you sprinkle on your dog's food, and it was created by naturopathic Dr.

Dennis Black, full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants.

If it's good for your dog,

it's probably in Rough Greens.

Welcome Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

I am thrilled, as always, to have Jack Carr join us.

He is the best-selling author of the Terminal List series, also the Terminal List,

not the book series, but the actual series on Amazon Prime.

He is the executive producer of that with Chris Pratt starring.

He's also the host of Danger Close with Jack Carr, a great, great podcast.

And the seventh book in the Terminalist series is out.

It's fantastic.

We talk about it in 60 seconds

with Jack Carr.

All right.

Sometimes you need to shoot people and you need to kill them.

You don't ever pull out your gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody, but that's not always always the thing that is right.

First thing you have to do is be prepared for all situations.

You know, if your car, you're driving downtown, all of a sudden you're surrounded by radicals, how do you get out of that?

Well, if you have a Burna launcher,

that's one way.

You just roll your window down just a little bit and shoot out some tear gas out of your Burna launcher.

That incapacitates people for about 40 minutes and you'd be able to move your car.

They don't tend to like tear gas.

It's legal in all 50 states.

No permits or background checks required.

Can be used by all age groups over 18.

And you can pack it in your checked luggage without a need to declare it as a firearm, which makes your airport experience a little nicer.

Sometimes non-lethal is the way to go.

I'm a big Second Amendment.

I carry a gun, but in my car, we have Burna Launcher, just in case.

A storm is on the horizon.

America's days are numbered.

Chinese submarine has gone rogue and is navigating towards the continental United States, putting its nuclear missiles within striking distance of the West Coast.

A rising Silicon Valley tech mogul with unknown allegiances is at the forefront of a revolution in quantum computing and artificial intelligence.

And a politician controlled by a foreign government is a power and breath away from the power in the Oval Office.

Three seemingly disconnected events are on a collision course to ignite a power grab unlike anything the world has ever seen.

And the country's only hope is a quantum computer that has gone dark, retreating to the deepest levels of the internet, learning at a rate inconceivable at her inception.

But But during her time in hiding, she has done more than learn.

She has now become a weapon.

She's now positioned to act as either the country's greatest savior or its worst enemy.

She's known as Alice, and her only connection to the outside world is to a former Navy SEAL sniper named James Rees, who has left the violence of his past behind.

Will there be blood?

Count on it.

Book number seven of the Terminal List series, and its author, Jack Carr, is with us now.

Hi, Jack.

Hey, how's it going?

Thanks so much for having me on.

This is great.

This is a tremendous book that

hits all of the things that I think are happening now.

And I saw your list of books that you had to read to get up to speed, and it's very telling.

What led you to this scenario?

Well, two books ago, I did some research into quantum computing, artificial intelligence.

This is before ChatDeep GPT became part of the lexicon, before Apple started updating all our devices, unbeknownst to us, with things that we can't opt out of.

So I started talking to people in the intelligence community, the military that focused on quantum computing and AI and found it was very interesting that all our next generation weapons platforms are all, if they're not being controlled that way now, which they're probably not yet, but they're being built to have that capability.

And so I thought that was very interesting.

So I talked to all these guys.

And when you talk to people in those spaces, they're all very tight-lipped, of course, and understandably.

But they all give you a little hint of something.

So if you talk to enough of them, like a reporter may do, you can put this hint and that hint together because they're different and build this mosaic.

So I would be shocked if the quantum computer that I described two books ago isn't exact, almost exactly the way I describe her.

And then for the next book, I wanted to make sure that I didn't use her capabilities as a crutch.

So I sidelined her for the last book because I didn't want it to be like Michael Knight in the 80s talking into his watch and the kit card shows up.

So I wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing that.

And so this one, she's back, because once you introduce a character like that to this universe, you can't sideline her forever.

And going deep down the rabbit hole on this for this particular book, I focus mostly on naval assets, but a few others as well.

And also what China's doing.

And if your enemy is doing something that is going to speed up their decision-making process, that means that you in turn have to do something that allows you to get within that decision-making process or do it faster.

So we're on this path to really having these platforms autonomously controlled.

Because if enemies doing it, there's not much of an option.

Otherwise, there'll be missiles landing on the United States before our generals and anyone in the executive branch is even out of bed.

So how far are we from this actually happening?

I think that, well, most people that I talked to said they could tell me more, but it would put my book in the science fiction category.

So that tells me we're a lot closer than we may think.

And if we look back over the last 20 years

and look at the rate with which we have progressed technologically, then think about the next 10 years and how much faster things are going to move in the direction of AI, and especially when you add quantum computing to the mix.

Well, even if you say what's happening with ChatGPT-4 today, if you would have said that five years ago, well, I did, and it was science fiction.

You know, everybody's, oh, that's not going to happen.

And now some of the biggest experts are saying that ASI

could happen before 2030, which no one thought would happen.

What's ASI?

At least, you know.

What's the S?

Oh,

artificial superintelligence.

Super intelligence.

So, yeah, so there is AI, which we have now, artificial intelligence, and it's, it's not general.

We're general intelligence beings.

We are good at many things.

And we could master one, but we're good at many things.

That's artificial general intelligence, which we are now approaching.

And that is

one system that can do many, many things.

Once that happens and it is connected,

like she is in your book,

connected to the internet in real time, they're afraid that there will be no stopping it becoming ASI, artificial super intelligence, that is more powerful in its capabilities than every brain on earth combined.

And they now think that ASI is

a real possibility by 2030 or before.

Oh, interesting.

Well, unbeknownst to me, I think I described ASI in the book rather than just

AI.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But interestingly enough, this quantum computer has attached herself to my protagonist, James Rees, and has modeled her behavior behavior to a certain extent after his.

And if anyone has read the books up to this point, they'll know that if certain things happen to my main character, he is one to put the law aside and go make things right.

And perhaps this quantum computer does that in this book as well to point out one of the dangers of what may happen in the future.

So one more question on the AI part of the book.

But

how concerned are you

personally about being able to control AI or ASI?

Oh, but I got more and more concerned the more research that I did, the more people that I talked to, because seemingly that next step is one of these things, becoming essentially sentient for all practical purposes and being able to make decisions without a human there to say yes or no.

I'm going to break my last rule.

One more question.

Why did you call her her

because, or a she, she, or Alice, because

that's a big debate on whether they'll become conscious and what that even means.

And once you start referring to it as a she or a him, it changes your relationship.

Why did you decide to do that?

It was Alice.

Her name is Alice in the book,

and I chose her to be her, having it be her decision because she needs to make a connection with James Reese, who is,

hey, he prefers the female type.

So,

in order to

that connection.

All right, all right.

I got it.

I got it.

I got it.

All right.

The other thing you talk about is the politician that is just a breath away from the oval.

And I noticed in your book of

research, your stack of book of research, there were a couple of things.

One, the Google

Archipeloo, Archipelago, by Michael Rechtenwald, who is a friend, and that's a tremendous book.

But also, Peter Schweiser, who is a dear friend.

You read Red Handed.

Certainly did.

That's all about

Biden.

Is it not?

Or is that the one that's about all of them?

Yeah, I think it's about all of them.

It's about all of them.

He's on the cover of that book.

But it is about all of them

more generally and just how that system works and how whether this one is specifically focused on China, but it could be other countries as well and just how they control our politicians through multiple different means.

And so

I did take a lot from there and also may have modeled that character you're referring to.

Let's just put it this way.

I think if someone is just vaguely familiar with politics, they will know perhaps who that may have been modeled after.

Inspired by.

How about that?

Inspired by.

Okay.

All right.

Inspired by.

Yeah.

But definitely fictional.

Fictional.

Just an inspiration.

It's all coincidental.

It's an inspiration.

That's right.

And anybody who spent any time in California will like those first.

I think it's chapter two and three.

It was so much fun to write those chapters where you have politicians going over to China, shaking those hands, doing those photo ops, and just kind of weave some of that into the book as well.

Because, I mean, some of these things that happened are so outrageous.

How naive do you have to be to think that, you know, they're giving you, you're a politician, they're giving you special access and and they're, you know, just all behind you.

And hey, coincidentally, some hot babe shows up, and you know, God, you got to be just dumb as a box of rocks, or you don't care about America.

Yeah, I heard it described this way in like a Thailand CD bar.

Hey, these girls really like me.

Wow,

it's shocking.

Yeah,

I don't normally score so well.

Yeah, it's remarkable.

Yeah, it's remarkable.

So outline the story a little bit about how, what, what you think the real danger is that we're supposed to take from this book.

Well, at its baseline, it is a story of loyalty, really.

But I explore that through the lens of the geopolitical relationship between China and the United States with Taiwan really in the middle of it.

And a race for China to take Taiwan because through their assets in the United States, they know that we're about to essentially greenlight this autonomous control of most of our naval assets in the Pacific, which would essentially prevent them from being able to take Taiwan by force.

They're on the clock.

What does that mean?

Explain to the average person, what does it mean to

surrender our naval assets to AI?

So what does that look like?

It looks like our generals, our admirals, are the civilians who control our military and the executive branch in particular,

being removed from that process out of necessity because China is close to being able to do that same thing.

So getting inside of that decision-making process on the other side essentially becomes impossible if they're doing that and we're not.

So they take a huge leap forward.

But if we have that advantage, Before they do, then they know that they have to do this.

They have to take Taiwan now or they can never take Taiwan.

I also weave in a few things in there about their birth rate, the one-child policy, the impact that has had, and what that means for their future.

So when you look at the real world and, you know, I hear from my friends who are in intelligence, they say, don't worry, we're ahead of China.

And I'm like, you know, that doesn't take away all my worry.

I'm just as worried about the United States having this capability as anybody else.

But I'm glad we would have it before they would, but I don't know how long that happiness party lasts.

In reality, are you hearing that we are way ahead or just ahead, or where are we with China?

Research indicates, and who

actually knows, but this is my best assessment from the people that I talked to and all the research that I did, is that

we still have a bit of an edge.

How long that will last, I don't know, but that we still have a bit of an edge right now.

And so for the book, I think about what would happen if they take that edge away by having somebody inside a tech company here that has a technology that the government, the NSA, does not.

So, with all those platforms being built, if we have a private company that does something on that side that is actually controlled by this foreign entity and is in turn funding this politician who's a breath away from the White House and how all those things are connected.

Okay.

Hang on just a second.

How hard would it be to put a price on the best kind of customer service treatment?

How much would you pay for somebody just not to see you as a number, but as a person that could help and was motivated to help you, not themselves to your money?

How about that price being free?

That's what you get when you get a free mortgage review

from American Financing.

It's the kind of comes with advice that you can really use, not advice just

given to you to sell you a product from a bank that they represent.

This is not a company that is representing the banks.

They don't get

any kind of kickbacks from the banks.

They're not working on commission.

So they don't care what the bank is trying to push.

If it's not right for you, they're not going to suggest that to you.

And they're really, really good.

We've had several people in the building that have done their mortgages with American Financing.

I've had them as a client for I don't know how many, almost two decades now, I think.

But they're fantastic.

They're designed to help you raise your credit score as well with programs that if you don't have the credit to be able to do what you need to do, to be able to get out from underneath that high-interest debt, they can help you, even getting your score up so you can be helped later.

So, welcome back to Jack Carr, best-selling author of the Terminalist series and the executive producer of the Amazon Terminalist series

with Chris Pratt.

So, when we're looking at the race to AI, you might remember the name of this general.

He was really not a favorite of JFK, and JFK really didn't like him.

He said that

before the Soviet Union caught up with us, that we should do a full-out launch,

first strike on the Soviet Union.

And he was a little terrifying, but his point was it's inevitable.

So while we have the advantage, launch.

Do you think that's we're in this situation again with AI that,

you know,

if we're first,

do what you need to do quickly to take away the advantage of others.

Aaron Trevor Brazil, well, hopefully that doesn't entail a nuclear launch anywhere in the world, but

it's similar in a sense that you definitely want to be first when you're talking about China or Russia having these capabilities as well.

But even one step further than that is the scariest part of all this and in my research

is the data storage and how much data is out there, how much is being collected both by private entities and our own government, and where it's stored.

We think of the cloud because they called it that, but it's not really a cloud.

There are physical locations that need to store this data.

And if we're talking about classified information, it also needs a backup.

So that essentially means you need to double the amount of storage of all the data that is collected.

It needs a backup somewhere.

And there is yet not enough of these storage facilities to do that.

So in the book, what I think about is a transfer of classified material because let's say you have, I'll use a different example than I use in the book.

So let's say something is targeting Fort Meade or somewhere like that,

and they know they're about to be taken out.

Well, what are they going to do with all that data?

They've got to move it somewhere.

And for the split second that it's in transit to this other location, it's vulnerable.

And that is what the Chinese know.

So in this book, they orchestrate this movement of data so they know exactly when it's going to be moving so they can take it, which means they have the the advantage essentially for their Alice.

So it's

fun stuff.

Oh, my gosh.

Yeah, really good.

It just keeps you awake at night, which I guess is what your job is.

That's it.

So Lori wrote in to me about her dog's experience with rough greens.

She says, I have three very picky pugs.

They actually licked the bottom of their bowls clean the very first time we gave rough greens to to them.

They've been very active ever since and seem extremely happy.

Thank you, rough greens.

Lori, thanks for writing in.

And every day, more and more people are finding out what rough greens can do for their dogs.

It made an enormous difference on my dog, Uno, who would not eat.

I mean, you want to talk about picky eaters.

You know, I don't know if you've ever experienced a dog where you actually have to almost hand feed him.

If we moved, he stopped eating.

And so you're like, okay, put it in the bowl, then stand there if he doesn't eat pick up some of it and put it in your hand but then don't move I mean, it was crazy.

Rough Greens solved all of this for us.

Rough Greens is a supplement that you put on your dog's food.

Sarah Gonzalez and the Blades Original team find out Don't Miss Voter Fraud, how elections can be stolen only on Blaze TV.

It's always a great day when you have Jack Carr on your roster of people to talk to.

He is the best-selling author of the Terminalist series

and also

the executive producer of Amazon series of the Terminal List.

He's a former Navy SEAL, led Operation.

He was a team leader, platoon commander,

troop commander, task unit commander.

He's a show-off, really.

That's what he is.

And then he left that

to write best-selling books, and we're honored to have him here.

So, Jack, first of all, you just came back from Normandy.

Weren't you there when the president was there?

That's right.

So I I was there for the 80th anniversary of D-Day commemoration events.

And people think of June 6th, but really in Normandy, France,

it's almost a month of events because they have not forgotten.

And it's not just the older people there.

They have passed it down to the youngest of generations.

So you have five-year-old kids out there waving American flags.

I've seen more American flags.

I've done it twice now, been there four times, but twice now for those commemoration events.

More American flags in Normandy during June than I've ever seen on the 4th of July in the United States.

101st Airborne flag.

It really is.

I wish every American could see it.

82nd airborne flags.

They're dressed up in period World War II outfits.

They're driving old Jeeps from World War II, old Harley and Indian motorcycles from World War II.

It is, and you can see it in their eyes.

It's not just an excuse to come out and have a parade, and the kids aren't there just because their teacher said they had to be there.

You can sense it.

You can feel it.

It's visceral.

They are so appreciative of what happened because they were occupied.

We haven't been occupied here.

So they have been occupied and they were liberated.

And they were liberated by these kids that lied about their age to get into the fight.

Kids lied at age 15.

So people on those beaches were 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21.

We tend to think of Tom Hanks and saving Private Ryan because he's a little older as an actor, John Wayne and the longest day.

But these were kids that stormed those beaches.

So I was there for the 80th anniversary commemoration events and all the world leaders, of course, came.

And I was so hoping they would leave politics.

out of the speeches.

We were there with 48 World War II veterans.

I was volunteering with the Best Defense Foundation that takes World War II veterans veterans back to the battlefields on which they fought.

And we had all the veterans up there on stage at the American Cemetery in Normandy overlooking Omaha Beach.

And I was so hoping they would leave politics out of their speeches, but they could not help themselves.

Even the prayer that started it,

the person reading it had to say something about storm clouds on the horizon now, today.

They had to equate what happened in June 1944 to something that's happening today.

They couldn't just honor those veterans up on stage and honor what happened there in June of 1944.

They had to bring current politics into it.

Biden did it, Austin did it, and the French president did it as well.

I will tell you that,

you know, they keep saying this is, you know, maybe another World War II.

It's World War III.

I think this, the way this is being,

it feels orchestrated, it reminds me of World War I,

where the people didn't necessarily want it, but they were told it would be an easy win.

You know, it's going to change everything.

And the leaders of

Europe knew exactly what it was.

It was to overthrow all kinds of different things and change old Europe.

That's what I feel like we're doing here, that it's not a war that people are going to like.

It's not going to be a good war or an easy war, and the people don't want it.

I think you're onto something there.

It's much more akin to an Archduke Ferdinand type assassination than it is to anything else.

Though they keep conjuring up World War II imagery of World War II, Even then from that cemetery, from that

ceremony that I just described, we moved down to the international ceremony down there.

And that's where many more international leaders showed up and Zelensky's there as well.

So

it's all this orchestration, it's all this manipulation.

And now not just things like that, but we get manipulated by the devices that we're carrying around in our pocket day by day.

So you really have to put in the work today in order to make wise decisions about the future.

How do you think this Ukrainian thing actually works out?

Well, eventually, two sides are going to have to come to the negotiating table.

And just how long is it going to take for that to happen?

How many people are going to die before that happens?

Right.

Russia has a lot more people to lose, I believe.

And they really just start get warmed up after they throw about half a million people at a problem.

So I think eventually it'll have to get to that negotiating table.

And we didn't win.

And

Russia, you know, suggested a possible opening, what would get them to the table.

And I, you know, I think they asked for a lot of stuff that was, you know, not going to happen.

But

we could have compromised on some of those things and maybe we got to the table.

Whether we made progress from there, I don't know, but could have gotten to the table.

But instead, we rejected all of it and then came up with a list that sounded like the

Versailles Treaty almost.

And isn't that interesting?

Yeah.

Anyone who's ever entered into a negotiation knows that both sides give a little, both sides take a little, you work your way towards some sort of an agreement.

And instead,

we don't even go to the table.

We don't even take a moment.

We just, right off the bat, put that aside.

Let's just go to war.

The machine's hungry.

It's been hungry since 1947, since the reorganization of the military and our intelligence apparatus in this country.

And we also see a lack of accountability from that time forward.

We changed the Department of War to the Department of Defense, and interestingly enough, get into a lot more wars since it turned into the Department of Defense.

Yes.

And that accountability starts falling away because these senior level leaders get to these positions with four stars and then they retire into the private sector, become part of another part of the machine.

And it's just, it's hungry.

And it's, it's right now, with our two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan falling by the wayside, that thing's really hungry.

That's really frightening.

So

do you think this is is all saber-rattling?

Or do you think that there are those who are actually thinking that

we could, you know, as a world

use nuclear weapons

and not destroy everything?

Right.

Great book out.

You may have read it already, Annie Jacobson's book, Nuclear War.

Yes.

It goes through.

And it's such a fast read because of the way she writes it with that minute-by-minute approach as to what happens here, what gets triggered here, what decision is made here.

So it's absolutely fascinating.

But

that has been a real threat since their creation, obviously, of these weapons.

We used two, of course, to end World War II in the Pacific.

But Reagan and Gorbachev, you know, when it came down to it, they both separately came to the conclusion, there's no winning this.

And

there isn't a single war game, according to Annie Jacobson, there hasn't been a single war game where it hasn't just destroyed the whole world.

Exactly.

I mean, I do miss those days.

If I could take that time machine back, I think I'd just go back to 1980 to about 1991 and just keep going back.

But I think that's exactly right.

Everyone should read that book, Annie Jacobson's book.

I had her on my podcast.

She's fascinating to talk to.

I wish it had come out before I wrote this one, but luckily, as I was going through hers,

I got most of everything right, almost everything, actually.

But I still wish it had come out.

I'd read it before it was a little easier.

Yeah, exactly.

It would have been all in one place rather than going to all the different sources I had to go to.

She has written so many fascinating books.

I don't know if you've

read her as an author, but oh, she is fantastic.

All of her books are fantastic.

Yep, but you're absolutely right.

That war game that she talks about, every single one, ends the same way.

So

I think that

I hope most of our leaders are aware of this, but the current one in this country, I'm just curious if you could pass the driver's test.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

You know,

the way Annie describes the process for the president and how it's impossible to make that decision with seconds with minutes to make it.

With seven minutes maximum.

And how much of that is, you know, the one part where she's kind of fictionalizing what would happen.

And he said, the president says, well, what does that mean?

You don't have time to explain, Mr.

President.

Yes or no?

You know, it's like,

what?

Yeah.

You think that would be a day one, week one type of a briefing?

Yeah.

But it's not shocking to me at all

that it's not.

Yeah.

And that they're put in those positions and

are really not prepared to

make the decisions they need to make.

Or the calls are.

So Jack,

two things here that I'd like you to opine on a little bit.

Just as a fiction writer,

how do you see, and I don't mean politically, I mean

stability-wise.

What do you see coming in the next few months as we go up to this election?

Oh,

well, it's really, from my perspective,

it's an awareness that everyone needs to have that we are getting manipulated by these devices, whether you're on X, whether you're on Instagram, no matter where you are, whether you're watching a news program, whether it's legacy news, everyone's trying to manipulate you.

And they're just not trying to sell you a product like a commercial back in the 80s, but they're trying to manipulate your thoughts and your behaviors.

So, a few years ago, I think 10 years ago, let's say, if I wrote a book and said that we had an aging president that wasn't up to the task, his party, both parties knew it,

and they needed to figure out a way that was palatable to the American public to get him to step aside.

Well, what, unbeknownst to him, unbeknownst to even close advisors, how could we go in and change a medical record?

How could we manipulate some blood work coming back now that everything is connected?

And we talked about AI, we talked about quantum computing, talked about hacking, you could talk about all these things.

And how could you go in there,

make a little change to that

the doctor wouldn't even have to know?

It's just a test coming back.

It's just something that pops up.

Oh, wow, this person needs to step aside for a medical reason.

I would not be shocked if we see that.

And it wouldn't even have to be a grand conspiracy that the president is in on and then his advisors are in on and the party is in on.

It doesn't even have to be that.

It could actually just be something, a hack that tweaks a medical record, that tweaks a blood test, tweaks another one, and now we have a president stepping aside and someone else moving into that position.

I would not be shocked if that happened in real life.

It sounds like fiction, but it sounds like a good

start to a book, end to a book, middle part, doesn't matter.

I would not be shocked if something like that happened in real life.

Who do you think would step in?

I think they have no choice but to have the vice president move up, but thinking about, well, who's next?

And then who you move into that VP slot, which is probably the one that is actually going to be running the show up there in the executive branch.

That would be my guess.

I've been wrong before, but then I found out later I was mistaken.

And

what scenario keeps you up at night that you think is the most likely scenario for

this transition period that we're in, you know, as a world?

Yeah, it's really

not having this gratitude, this appreciation for what was sacrificed for all of us to be here, for you and I to be talking right here together, for the options and opportunities that we have because of this delusion, this delusion that we don't see in northern France, but we see it in this country.

And

from the beginning of this country

from its inception up until today, so much was sacrificed so that we could have these options and these opportunities.

And that right there, losing that completely for the next generation is something I talk to my wife about almost daily, something that worries me when I think about this next generation, when I think about our kids.

So I'd say it's that more than anything else.

And we lost a little, we lost a little

Hey, let me tell you about my pillow.

I'm sorry if we had a technical glitch and I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to Jack, and he's just one of my favorite people.

But anyway, book number seven is out today for Jack Carr.

Let me tell you about my pillow.

This sounds too good to be true, but honestly, it is because of cancel culture that this is happening.

They no longer have the support of the big box stores or the shopping channels.

And when you have a deal with big box stores, you have to, you can't undercut the stores.

And so you have to keep price at a certain level, et cetera, et cetera.

Well, now because they have boycotted him, Mike Lindell at MyPillow and everything else, and Cancel Culture kicked in, he can give you specials that he wasn't able to do before on all of their products.

They're having a $25 extravaganza.

When you use the promo code BECK, two-pack multi-use pillows are $25.

MyPillow sandals, $25.

6-pack towel sets, $25.

And for the first time ever, the premium MyPillow with the all-new Giza fabric, which keeps it cool at night, any size or loft level, you can get for $25.

There's also something else.

Jack has a new book out.

And if you're going to buy Jack's book, would you you pre-order Chasing Embers?

It's my new novel for teens, and it comes out July 23rd.

And what I love about this book is because if, you know, if people buy it and they like it, this is a six or eight book series that we have been working on, and I think you're going to love it.

Every name, every place,

the whole fictional world is purposely constructed.

And let me give you an example.

Do you know where the word utopia comes from?

Utopia is a word that was created in 1516 and it combined two Greek words, u,

which means not, and topos, which means place.

So utopos, utopia, literally means not a place

because in 1516 they knew there would be no place, there could be no place as perfect as Utopia, because nothing would be perfect.

But in chasing Chasing Embers, in real life, they're a group of people that really believe they can perfect the world and make real utopia, and it always ends really poorly.

So in Chasing Embers, it's a massive corporation that is kind of government corporation, you know, one of those public-private partnerships,

calls itself Topos,

which means place,

because they believe they can make a real place in Utopia.

Now, that's not anywhere in the book, but

that's how layered and well thought out this book is,

I think.

Does it work?

Can they finally pull off Utopia that every socialist, communist, dictator has ever dreamt of?

You'll have to order the book to find out.

My first ever young adult fiction novel releases July 23rd.

You can pre-order Chasing Embers right now on Amazon, Barnes Noble, Books a Million, or best yet, right at Glennbeck.com.
