and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

Oh, come on.

They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

Whatever.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.

Let me tell you a little bit about Grip 6.

Everything you touch has history.

Everything you buy, everything you eat, every piece of clothing you wear.

It all comes from somewhere.

If you're like me when it comes to the clothing especially, you want to get what you pay for and you want to make sure your hard-earned money stays here in America as much as it can because American manufacturing matters.

It's the backbone of our economy and the thing that puts food on the table of our fellow countrymen and women.

It's one of the reasons I love partnering with companies like Grip Six because you're getting a true American experience.

When you buy their socks, for instance, you are supporting American ranchers who raise specially bred sheep that produce the modern wool and the American manufacturers

who do all of the rest of it.

It is Grip Six.

Do yourself a favor today.

Put your trust and hard-earned money in a company that does it right right here in America.

It's gripsics.com/slash Beck.

That's gripsics.com slash Beck.

15 seconds.

Oh, I could vomit.

I'm so nervous about the national radio program that begins now in probably eight seconds.

You got to

get up.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

You got to

get

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Oh no.

I just read an op-ed piece from Thomas Friedman, and he's always right.

And he says, Israel's about to make a terrible, terrible mistake.

Oh my goodness.

I'm so worried about that.

Or not.

And also we have China.

Moving six ships over into the Middle East, which is, you know, no big deal there.

People are walking out of a Dave Chappelle show over his anti-Israel comedy.

That was a little disheartening to hear.

And

I'm kind of wondering,

why hasn't Israel reacted yet?

I've got a couple of theories, and I'm going to share them in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about Jason.

He wrote in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.

He says, Ginger just loves Rough Greens.

She's four and can be a picky eater at times, but with Rough Greens, she eats her food immediately, and she has more energy and is more regular.

Keep it coming, rough greens.

I want to keep her eating healthy.

Sounds like Ginger started enjoying rough greens right out of the gate.

It was the same with my dog, Uno, and you could notice a difference in Uno almost overnight.

Rough Greens, not a dog food supplement, developed by naturopathic Dr.

Dennis Black, you sprinkle it on the dog's food.

They love it, they eat it, they become more healthy.

And honestly, I've seen huge changes in Uno.

And Pat, I think, has seen changes in his dog.

And

same with Stu.

The folks at Rough Greens are

so confident that your dog is going to love it that they have a special deal for you.

Roughgreens.com/slash Beck.

Oh, Oh, my goodness.

Pat is filling in for Stu today, who is off again.

I don't know.

I mean, he's practically Johnny Carson, if anybody remembers him.

It's easier to remember the days he was here.

I think it was last

Wednesday.

Yeah, it's kind of like with us, it's like, when were you gone?

Oh, it was Christmas.

And then over the New Year holiday, yeah, or spring break.

With Stu, it's like, when was he here?

Oh, yeah, that day.

That was a special day.

Yeah.

That was a special day.

According to reports now, up to six Chinese warships are currently stationed in the Middle East.

China's People Liberation Army, the CPLA, reported engagement in a joint military exercise with Omani Navy while visiting Oman.

Again, it's like, you know, when

Mexico got their hostages, you know, or their people out of Israel, and they used their air force, I thought to myself, I didn't even know Mexico had an air air force.

Same thing with Oman.

Don't know I can even find it on a map.

And they have a navy.

That's cute.

No, it's cute.

It's kind of, it's probably a little like,

you know, the Cayman Islands and

the British

Virgin Islands.

Or do they just use British ships?

Because I don't think they're British still anymore.

It got rid of those occupiers.

I'll tell you that right now.

the Navy

Escort Task Force

is now by Kuwait, which is right there

near

Iran, which I think is really, really...

No, seriously, it's exciting.

Now, my question is, why has Israel not responded?

What

is happening there?

Now, I've got a couple of ideas on this.

One,

the New York Times is reporting that the U.S.

is advising Israel to delay the Gaza invasion for needed hostage negotiation.

Now, apparently two Americans got out.

The

Palestinians have returned two American hostages over the weekend.

I love it that we're working with Qatar

because, you know, they're, I mean, they're just the number one funder of the the Muslim Brotherhood.

So, and that's, you know,

big funder and founder of

Hamas.

So that's, that's really good.

I hope we, I hope we gave them some money in exchange for these hostages.

I don't know if it's about the hostages as much as it is a very convenient way for the United States to delay any kind of ground invasion until all the media turns on Israel.

Because that's what's happening.

They're already already saying, they haven't even done anything yet.

They're like, they're such a bad country.

They're going to kill all these people.

And

if they would have acted last week or the week before,

you would have seen more sympathy.

But

I think this is a complete

game that the White House is playing to keep Bibianetan Yahoo and the Israelis from not striking.

However, there is another possibility.

Obviously, you know, I'm not in the rooms advising anyone, but I did think,

are they just preparing to go to the head of the snake?

Now, I don't think so.

But we do know that they that Israel, I mean, Iran now has one nuclear weapon and are just about to develop its second nuclear weapon.

So, is it possible that they are just going to target

Iran, its clerics, or its nuclear facilities?

Now, the nuclear facility is supposedly buried

so deep that you're not supposed to be able to knock it out with any kind of conventional weapon.

The army seems ready to go.

They've been ready for a few days.

Aerial bombardments meant to prepare the ground, you know, are meeting with diminishing returns now at this point.

And the widely accepted reason over in Israel is international

pressure,

plus the long train of visiting dignitaries and possible negotiations.

The problem with the latter is that Hamas will probably go for the drip-drip approach, meaning to drag out more time and the media will continue to turn on Israel.

If they're going to target Iran, most likely they'll target the nuclear installations.

What was the reactor?

They did this in like 1981, I think.

And,

you know, they went after the reactor and it was good.

Now, maybe if the main operation is successful this time,

you'll see the Mossad taking out a few top scientists and military leaders as we have in the past.

But,

you know, Gad Saad said that this would take incredible, I'm quoting, testicular fortitude.

And

I don't know, most are saying it can't be done different from 1981, blah, blah, blah.

It's difficult.

But they all said that it couldn't be done back in 1981 as well.

I mean, you know, the Tom Cruise guys, they do exist.

They're just, they're probably as short, but not as good looking.

And most of them are probably Israelis.

So, you know, they kind of have this don't mess with us kind of image, but we'll see.

If they can pull it off,

that means the testicular

area may be made out of steel on BB Netanyahu.

I'm not really.

I'm not really sure, but we will continue to

watch this

uh let's see there's a couple of other things that would majorly escalate this thing however um my i think they understand that i think we understand that and i'm sure the administration is strongly recommending they don't do that

what are they gonna do no i think i think they should do it um but i don't i don't know they

you know they are the head of the snake right and that's the only way to put a stop to this.

Yeah.

And so, but it does escalate things.

Oh, yeah.

So it's.

I think pretty much anything they're doing.

It's a big decision.

I mean, when I saw that China, now China was there already.

Yeah.

But to have them move their ships in shows, you know, that's Iran and Russia.

So there is an axis of evil, and those three are together.

With us.

Against us.

Yes.

Against us.

Right.

But they're all in the same general vicinity.

I mean,

if this goes wrong, we are at World War III quickly.

No doubt.

Yeah, and there's all kinds of things that could go wrong that are just, you know, somebody makes a mistake, there's a hair triggered by somebody, and it's on.

It's a really dangerous situation.

So you have the rest of the world, however, turning, and you look at what's happening around the world.

England is going to turn against Israel because I don't think England's going going to have a choice.

I mean,

these countries have allowed themselves to be laid waste

by so many

Islamists.

It's not Islam.

It is Islamists, people who believe that the Quran must be implemented as the highest source of law.

Those guys are crazy.

I know some Muslims that are not crazy,

but they're reformed and they'd be the first the Islamists would behead.

So they're the kind of people that shut their mouth, you know, in their own community because they don't want to be dead.

But look at what happened over the weekend in London.

It was not good.

And you're starting to see

moves.

There was a,

they won't even give the details of the terrorist strike in London.

Did you hear about this, Pat?

No.

So in London, first of all, the BBC

will not say that Hamas is a terrorist group.

The BBC.

And that's really kind of

not good.

Fueling more anti-Israel and anti-Semitism because

they won't

say that the Palestinian Hamas was wrong.

They're saying, you know, that it's a no, it's a charity.

It's a charity.

Sure it is.

There was a hit in London.

I think it was.

Let me see if I can find this real quick.

There was a hit

where the authorities won't even say

what exactly happened.

They said that it was, yeah, here, pro-Palestinian terror attack.

Alleged terror attack has already been carried out in Britain by an asylum seeker waiting to avenge deaths in Gaza.

According to the Telegraph, the man who came to this country in 2020 told police, look at that, it's 2023.

Yeah.

Okay.

Told police he had carried out the as yet undisclosed action for Palestine.

Newspaper reports the case cannot fully be revealed for legal reasons, but that the suspect is now in custody.

After being arrested, he said he had done it because Israel had killed children in Gaza.

Now, that's a bizarre thing.

He's already carried out his mission, but they won't say what it was?

Yeah.

What does that, what kind of...

What is that?

Questions have been raised over why details about the incident have not been disclosed, but security source told the publication they may be downplaying it so they don't have a repeat attack or copycats attacks.

Nations around the world are on high alert, so-called lone wolf attacks by extremists motivated by the worsening situation in the Middle East.

In Brussels, Belgium, on Monday, a

man with a gun

downed two Swedish football supporters before later being shot dead by the police.

He was motivated by his Palestinian

love because they're just such lovely, charitable people.

He was just giving away bullets.

And so he gives the bullets away too fast for some people.

Who are you to judge?

So you have the terror threat all over Europe going up.

How are you going, how is France going to handle this if Israel goes in and

bombs Iran or

does more with Hamas, you're going to have all of these Western countries say, stop it, stop it right now, because they'll be in trouble.

So you're going to, what, sacrifice the Jewish state?

Is that what happens?

That's

foretold somewhere, too.

Somewhere.

I'm trying to think.

It's weird, too, isn't it?

It was like.

Was it Michael Boublet who foretold that?

I think it was the

Fly me to the moon where all the nations gather around.

Yeah, that's what it was.

Yeah, something like that.

They're all against Israel or something.

Yeah.

Something.

And do you remember how we never, I mean, when we talked about this 30 years ago together,

we didn't.

We couldn't understand how we'd be on the wrong side of that.

Yeah.

I can understand it now.

Bizarre.

In fact, let's go into that conversation because there's a couple of things from a 30-year-old conversation with Pat and I that have come up that we just could not understand how it would happen.

More in just a second.

Honey, punches of votes is the forma perfecto depending on the control family.

You got to

get up.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

You got to move.

It's a new day I've turned around.

You got to make up.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Back Program.

Welcome to the Glen Back Program.

There is another voice that was snuffed out because

they were speaking the inconvenient truth.

Another voice lost,

and a voice you can't hear, but I'm going to tell you exactly what they were saying, and it is absolutely true.

We'll give that to you in 60 seconds.

We have a lot of work to do in this country.

Seems like the battle is always uphill, especially when it comes to fighting against the left's constant efforts to destroy America from within.

Pat, will you just look up Patriot Mobile?

click on the about

Yeah, it might be our story.

That's great.

All right.

Let's see.

There's something that I think

you need to know.

There was on TikTok.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

You're going to fight it.

What?

The Chinese government TikTok is doing something nefarious?

Yes.

And it's not just them.

We're about to see a big, big change in

social media.

And it revolves around the news.

And I'll explain more of that tomorrow.

But

there was

an account that was held by Evita Duffy Alfonso.

And she's a staff writer at the Federalist and co-founder of the Chicago Thinker.

And she was

talking about what these climate psychos are doing.

And they're going to restrict our movement.

And

this, I think, is just a convenient

effect of everything this administration has done.

From not searching for our own oil to putting all kinds of restraints on people, to, you know,

making sure that the airlines are in their pocket

and the shortage of workers now that we have.

I don't know if you've flown recently, but

it's an even less fun experience than it used to be.

And it is also undependable now.

You don't know if you're going to get trapped someplace.

At least that's the way I and my family feel.

That you fly someplace and you get to the plane and you're like, okay, it's delayed.

But there's in my family, there's been, I think, three planes that they were, you know, waiting for

and took them two days to get home

because it was delayed, delayed, delayed, canceled.

And, you know, that's not a dependable thing.

And I think that works to the advantage of the climate huggers because here's what they really want.

Now, she made a video and she said these facts and they were taken off because they're misleading or harmful to humans.

Okay, I don't, why?

Huh.

Okay.

So here's the thing.

In France,

it is incredible what they're doing in France.

New study conducted by the research firm Consumer Science and Analytics Institute

that 41% of citizens in France support banning people from flying more than four times in their lifetimes because of climate change.

You'd only take four flights your entire lifetime.

Even more disturbing, 59% of 18 to 24 year olds in France support the radical limit on air travel.

So what did they do?

In France, they have already outlawed domestic flights less than two and a half hours long.

So, you know, two and a half hours long, that's about a 20, 21-hour drive.

Okay.

It's not, it's, it's, you know, not here to the Burbs.

It's, you know, it's not even New York to Rochester

because that's about a 45-minute flight.

That's that's New York to Cincinnati,

maybe Maybe even further than that.

That's a long flight.

You won't be able to fly in France, they're already doing it within two and a half hours from the airport.

So what does that mean?

Well, when they're banning gas, when they're forcing you into a car that only goes 400 miles, that's not 400 miles is not enough to take you two and a half hours.

So how are you driving there in one day?

The key is you're not driving there.

The G40 cities, which we have talked about,

the G40 City Climate Leadership Group, this is a globalist climate organization, and we got red flags for talking about this because they say this is not true.

But listen to the way this is worded because it is absolutely true.

I can tell you that the global Climate Organization is 100 cities across the world, 14 American cities.

It has a 2030 target,

important,

target of limiting air travel to one short-haul return flight, less than 1,500 kilometers, every three years per person.

It's in 14 American cities.

Now, when I say this is their goal, this is what they're trying to do, we were flagged by, I don't remember which social media group, as telling untruths because they said,

no, it says target.

And I said, that's a goal.

No,

that's a target.

Nowhere do they say this is a goal.

This is just a number that they're throwing out there.

And they're not saying that it has to be done.

or I said that's that's the same with a goal

anyway

so they are suppressing this for some some

reason or another if these C40 cities get their way people will not be able to take their one short haul flight every three years

since C40 cities make up about one twelfth of the global population.

One flight per person every three years would cut the air industry's emission by way more than 43%.

Basically, it will annihilate the air travel industry.

So, if you lose, well, you know what's going to be left?

Concords for really rich people,

private planes for really rich people.

That's all that's going to be left.

The really rich people will travel.

You will not.

This is what they banned her for.

It is so important that you

learn how to

find the truth and find it on your own.

There is coming a time.

I mean,

Pat, what do you think the honest odds are that we go...

I mean, there's a chance.

Miracles happen and it doesn't have to go this way.

But Israel is escalating the airstrikes against Gaza.

Iran is behind it.

Iran has a nuclear weapon.

Iran has the crazy religious people who say we're going to destroy Israel to hasten the return of the promised one, which is end times talk.

But then you have Russia on their side.

China just sent six ships into the area.

We've got two carrier groups now in the area.

What are the odds we're not in World War III

a year from now?

That we're not?

That we're not.

I'd like to think it's at least 50-50.

Okay, 50-50.

Yeah.

50-50.

Do you remember,

maybe you didn't learn this, but I'm sure you did.

In the

1940s, when we went to war, every newsroom had a monitor.

They couldn't edit you after it was out.

They couldn't suppress it after it was out.

So you had to have a military, for any national program, you had a military monitor.

Okay.

And they told you pretty much what you can and cannot say.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You're not saying that.

That's in World War II

with

the internet.

And with

everything not just being national, but international.

do you really think that monitors won't be in everybody's newsroom?

And actually, if you say, no, I don't think so, you're probably right.

They won't be monitors.

They don't need to be in every room.

Will just shut you down.

Yeah.

They'll just throttle you so you just won't have anybody listening

or watching.

And they can already can and do

already do that.

And it will happen overnight.

And it will happen when there's a real crisis and you get up and you want to know about it and you go to look for your favorite whoever to explain this and they're not going to be there.

So it is vital that you

learn to

hear over the noise and actually be able to decipher what is true.

And there's a couple of easy things that that you can do, and we'll tell you about that coming up in just a minute.

Standby.

Radio listener Michael wrote in about his experience with American Financing.

He said, Glenn, I've been working with Thea at American Financing since we made the decision to refinance.

She has been such a help since day one, answering all my questions, and there's been plenty of those.

She's returned every call.

My emails were answered quickly.

I actually began to wonder if she works 24/7.

I've been contacted regularly, which allows me to rest easy knowing that

the process is working and and progress is being made.

A friend of mine started his refinancing process a month before us.

We close tomorrow.

He's decided to get out.

He's going over to American Financing as well.

He's starting over.

Best of all, my wife and I, we don't have to go to the closing.

It's coming to us.

We don't have to take any of our time off.

Thank you.

So, the first thing you need to do if you're learning,

if you want to be your own editor, you want to be able to find the truth.

This is one of the most frequently asked questions of me.

Who do you trust?

How do you find out who to trust?

You know, where do I go to get the real news?

I will tell you that I know because I work here and I'm the founder of it.

Blaze tries really, really hard to get it right.

Daily Wire tries really, really hard to get it right.

The Caller, Daily Caller tries to get it right.

There's a few websites, Just the News, I trust.

However,

you shouldn't trust anyone.

You have to look for the sources.

And for instance, Just the News gives you all of the sources because they're mainly, they're generating the stories themselves entirely

and so they're reporting on what they have learned and so the sources are there

but you can't trust anybody

what you have to do is

first narrow it down by saying

have you ever read one of those stories let me give you this have you ever read one of those stories where you're not sure what the hell they're even talking about you can't follow the story

because a gunman walked in and then

they did this and then they got into the car.

And you're like, wait,

is there more than one person?

Is it a he, she?

No, it's just somebody who identifies as they.

Is that right?

Yeah, I mean,

you've probably read those stories before.

That you should write that down so you know, keep a journal.

Can't trust this news source.

If they can't get some eternal truths right because of political correctness, you cannot trust them.

So if they're using they, them

or,

you know, pronouns that are, if they, they say, what was the

Maxim, Australia Maxim.

Did you see this?

Australia Maxim came out with their hot 100.

And like number two or number one is a guy.

Oh, yeah.

And you look at

hot 100 women.

Yeah.

And it was a guy.

And she ain't hot.

No.

Now.

Looks like a guy.

Right.

A square-jawed guy.

Yeah.

And so it's like, you know, look, I don't get my news from Maxim,

but they're not trustworthy on anything.

If they cannot get that right,

you can't believe anything that they say.

If they're willing to publish that big of a lie, then you don't know when they're lying.

The more subtle stuff will come very, very easily to them.

So that's the first thing that you have to do.

And I suggest you start doing that now.

Start making a list of, you know, organizations that you trust.

Those organizations are going to have a tough time surviving here in the coming times, especially if we go to war.

You need to know who they are and you need to know how to follow them directly.

I told you earlier this

episode that we were talking to,

or no, I'm sorry, I was reading a story yesterday that came from Facebook.

Campbell Brown was running their news division.

And they're getting rid of their news division.

Now, I'm not sure exactly yet all that it means,

and I think they wouldn't tell us all that it means.

But

how it's being reported is that media, these social media companies, they're so tired of getting, you know, in trouble from the government on what to print, what not to print, and all these news things that they've just going to get out of the business.

Well, what business is that?

Is that you

curating the news yourself?

Or is it,

does that also include places like The Blaze, who is a news publisher?

Are we not allowed to publish on, is that in the future that we won't be allowed to publish on Facebook?

My guess is yes, because the minute this is implemented, ABC, CBS, all of these discredited mainstream media places, you're not going to see their stuff.

Because if Facebook isn't selecting those stories from those companies,

do you know anybody that goes to ABC.news.go to get their news?

Because I don't.

I don't.

And

you need to know who they are.

Because when this starts to backlash, because the Facebook is not pushing you to ABC or CNN or NBC, they're going to feel the pinch.

And we've already felt it.

When you're banished to outer darkness by Facebook or whoever, you feel it and it affects your bottom line.

I think more is coming on this.

So know how to get a hold of your people

because right now

is probably the best it's going to be for a while.

When you say, I want to follow that person, if they're conservative and news,

You're going to probably have more and more harder times getting those stories actually into your feed.

And it's important that you get the stuff that you trust from the people you trust and stay one with the news.

The Glenn Beck program.

You know, it's not really a crime to shoplift if you're taking less than $900 worth of stuff, right?

I mean, right?

We all know that to be.

It's not stealing.

It's not a crime.

You know, it's under $900.

It's nothing.

Okay.

This is the reason why we're a big, huge, lawless dumpster fire with looting and violence and everything else.

Why doesn't people stop the madness?

Why don't they stop the madness?

Because the woke mind virus has taken over.

We shouldn't enforce the law because it might hurt somebody's feelings.

Earlier today in today's podcast, I let you know what's happening in

the House this week.

They're going to start with about 10 candidates in a caucus,

and then outside,

they're not going to do anything until they have 217.

When they have 217 in the caucus, then they're going to put a vote up.

They hope that maybe it will be as soon as Wednesday.

But

if you want to hear that, just go grab the podcast, wherever you get your podcast today.

It should post, I don't know, by probably one or two o'clock Eastern time.

There's a couple of other things.

You know,

Pat and I were just, you know, talking about, you know, what are the odds?

What are the odds that we're in World War III?

I don't know, 50-50, I hope.

I hope.

At best, perhaps.

And I think people

know this, right?

Do the average, Sarah, you would be much close, you're much closer to the people than us.

You're on that side of the glass.

And all of the little people are on that side of the glass.

how do you do it?

Anyway,

are average people thinking about like and talking about, you know, hey.

War?

Yeah.

No, they're not.

No, they're worried about Taylor Swift and the Chiefs.

By the way, I have a solution for that.

Okay.

I have a solution for that.

I think we need to

have some sort of redistribution of Taylor Swift.

So it's not fair.

Kansas City gets all this attention.

She should have to have some sort of romantic interlude with somebody on every NFL team.

You know?

Yeah.

I think it's fair.

Yeah.

It is.

I I mean, we're talking the economy.

You know, it's not, who is she to come in to affect the economy that way?

What right does she have?

That economy belongs to all of us.

Right.

So in she should have to support

fairly

every show and every team.

I'm adding show, just, I'm just saying.

I'm just saying.

I don't have anything that I'm thinking of in particular, but that's the way we do that.

So you're saying it's not not that they're

are they avoiding it?

I would say that it's not even a thought.

Not even a thought.

Wow.

It's going to be a big surprise, isn't it?

A lot of people.

Man.

If you're saying 50-50, yeah, it's going to be a big one.

Yeah.

I mean,

I think it's 50-50 by, you know, Christmas time.

Well, I mean, seriously.

It could.

I mean, it could happen at any time.

Right.

And I mean, it's always like that.

You know, it's like, but it's, I think it's.

But right now, forces are gathered near each other.

You.

Really near each other.

When China sent in

the ships this weekend.

And we already have ships there.

Yeah.

That's getting crowded.

And missiles are flying around in the region.

And we're sending the, you know, the ballistic Thad.

I love Thad.

We're sending Thad.

And we're sending Thad to the Middle Eastern theater.

It's a beautiful theater.

It's all brand new.

New New lights, curtains, luscious.

Anyway, Thad's going to the Middle Eastern theater, and

Thad does quite a show.

He works with ballistic missiles.

Anyway, Thad is a missile system for

basically intercontinental ballistic missiles, which to try to take them down, right?

Before they do damage.

I can't think of the Middle Eastern countries that have one of those.

have one of those.

Maybe Israel.

Other than that,

not Hamas.

No.

Not Hezbollah.

Not Syria.

Not Iraq.

Hey, Iran might have one.

But if they don't have it.

Maybe Saudi Arabia.

Yeah, but Saudi Arabia wouldn't launch it.

They would launch it against Iran.

Yeah.

So, I mean, I think you're looking at, you know,

you're looking at China, Russia, United States, any of those.

And I think Europe is going to start playing into the hands of the Palestinians soon because how are they going to control all of this?

How are they going to control the outbursts?

How are they going to control?

Do you know that we have

400 people that came across our border that we caught?

400 people that we caught

that are on the terrorist list this year.

400.

How many people did we not catch?

Because I think we're not catching most of them.

That's a little terrifying.

Why are people on the terrorist list coming across our border?

To cause...

They're looking for a better life, Glenn.

Oh, is that what it is?

Yeah, they're looking for a gig.

They really want to work at

a fast food establishment.

I didn't, no, I didn't see that one as an option.

I was thinking more that, you know, I kind of go once a terrorist, always a terrorist.

Oh, really?

Yeah, generally speaking.

Oh, that's weird because, no, I think they just come to America with that

burning in their belly that they just want to make something of their life.

Yeah, see, the burning in the belly still makes sense the way I'm thinking about it, too.

But,

but anyway,

you know, you're looking at some.

And it's, I mean, how do you, how do you talk to your friends about this?

If they don't, I mean, it's kind of like,

yeah, I don't think I'm opening the shelter door for you.

You know?

Mm-hmm.

If you're, if you're not there at all,

you know, it's kind of like,

yeah.

Remember when I tried, you know, they're pounding on the door.

Glenn, Glenn, let me in.

And I'm on the other side of the door going,

I don't think so.

You weren't there.

But the government has come out with something very, very helpful that I think you're going to like.

It is

ready.gov.

And ready.gov will help you make a plan.

In any language, that's a great thing.

In any language, they'll help you make a plan.

Make a plan today.

Your family family may not be together if disaster strikes, so it's important to

know which type of disaster could affect your area.

Knowing how you'll contact one another and reconnect if separated.

Establish a family meeting place that's familiar and easy to find.

And then put a plan together by discussing the questions below with your family, friends, or household to start your emergency plan.

How will I receive emergency alerts and warnings?

I don't know.

Probably over the phone thing when you take over the phones.

And I mean, didn't we just go through that?

What's my shelter plan?

I don't have a...

What is your shelter?

What is your shelter plan?

What's your evacuation route?

I don't know.

The roads that are open.

Roads that don't have roadblocks on them.

What's your family household communication plan?

Smoke signals.

I don't know.

Are the cell towers up?

Do I need to update my emergency preparedness kit?

Nope.

So they have these.

So you're all set.

I'm not.

Yeah, you're set.

I'm absolutely all set.

And they talk about all the things that you need to do to create, but they do have preparedness materials on what kind of emergencies you could be facing.

And

this is interesting because

they have little

booklets for for everything.

They have active shooter.

Okay, that one's good.

Avalanche.

Probably not going to happen with me.

Cyber attack.

Okay.

Earthquake.

Extreme heat.

Yeah, what are you going to do?

Where are you going to evacuate if it's 110 degrees, for instance?

What are you going to do?

I'd go into my house.

That's what people in Phoenix do, I hear.

I think so, yeah.

Yeah.

Financial.

Turn on the air conditioning.

Yeah.

Financial emergency.

That's an interesting one.

Flood, hurricane, landslide.

Okay.

Novel pandemic.

That's probably going to come in handy.

Nuclear explosion.

Power outage.

Thunderstorms.

Now, one of these things doesn't really belong.

The thunderstorm.

What are you doing to prepare for the thunderstorm?

Airplugs.

Umbrella.

I mean, well, no, you wouldn't want an umbrella.

Unless you're wearing rubber sole shoes, because I think then it'll travel through the umbrella and just die in your shoes.

But it has to go through you first.

Yeah, so

isn't that interesting?

extreme heat.

See, they should have just done extreme heat.

And

nuclear explosion is one.

Okay.

Because that's extreme heat.

heat.

Right.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Very extreme.

1,200, 2,000 degrees.

That's extreme.

Yeah.

And that's one where you don't, you just don't go into your house.

Right.

You know,

air conditioning won't help a lot.

No, it's not.

That's going to overwhelm my unit.

Yeah.

And it's not subtle either.

It just comes on in a flat.

Well, yes.

Yes.

In a flash.

So you got that going for you.

How many people do you think are prepared for any of that stuff?

1%,

no percent?

No, I think there's a.

I don't think very many people.

You know, with the kind of things they're talking about, escape routes and

how you connect with each other if self-towers are down.

Do you have a plan for that?

Yeah, we have a meeting place.

You do have a meeting place?

Yeah, we do.

Yeah.

That's good.

It's the closest waffle house.

You know, it's like, where are we going to meet?

Makes sense.

Well, I tell you, if it's the end of the world, you can find me at the closest waffle house.

That'll be, you know, that's where I'll be.

Yeah.

You don't have that?

Yeah.

You don't have a meeting place or anything?

We don't have a meeting place.

Oh, you should.

Yeah, we should do that.

Because I have the food.

You know, we have

storage.

We have stuff.

Do you have a code?

A code?

A code.

I don't have a code.

Everybody needs a code.

Okay.

Just

so you can pretend you're a spy.

No.

Because of things like, for instance,

these deep fakes now that they can capture your child's voice online and within three seconds, they can

image it.

Okay.

And so this is already happening where people will call and they'll say, mom, I just made a huge mistake.

Yeah, that has happened.

It has happened.

Okay.

So you need a code.

Give me the code.

So you know it's her or him.

So what you say is, let's just base it on 100.

The family picks a number or picks a number.

Okay.

Let's say you pick 100.

You say to her,

93.

You don't say give me a code.

You say 93.

And she says.

100.

And then it's

you.

You know it's not her.

No.

You say 93, and she gives you the number

to get to 100.

To get to 100.

So you can say one, and she can say 99.

That way,

it's always changing.

All right.

You know?

What if you're so stressed out you can't do the math in your head?

Then

I would make it 10.

You know, or two.

So the answer is always one.

So you throw out nine.

Nine.

And then they say one.

Right.

So even under duress, you should be able to come up with you should be able to.

Yeah.

And if not,

you probably just say, is it really you?

Because if I say 37, there's going to be some math involved and they might be too stressed.

Yeah.

Say like 60 or 50.

Right.

If you're dealing with your dumb kids, okay,

you just say 99 and then they have to say one.

Okay.

All right.

Makes sense.

Okay, good.

Boy, Pat is going to be dead within the first week.

All right.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

So there's been some disturbing, some would say disturbing, I say that's misunderstood, developments on cash payments made to Joe Biden.

Here is cut number six, please.

Bank records obtained by the House Committee on Oversight have revealed a $200,000 direct payment from James and Sarah Biden to Joe Biden in the form of a personal check.

Here's some important context about this check we've obtained in our investigation.

In 2018, James Biden received $600,000 in loans from AmeriCorps, a financially distressed and failing rural hospital operator.

According to bankruptcy court documents, James Biden received these loans, quote, based upon representations that his last name, Biden, could open doors and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.

End quote.

On March 1st, 2018, AmeriCorps wired a $200,000 loan into James and Sarah Biden's personal bank account, not their business bank account.

And then on the very same day, James Biden wrote a $200,000 check from this same personal bank account to Joe Biden.

James Biden wrote this check to Joe Biden as a quote loan repayment.

Hmm.

Well, maybe, I mean, could have been that.

Could have been, I mean, did they check on the check where, you know, it's memo, you know, where you write what it's for?

Did it say maybe like birthday?

Might have.

We don't know.

I mean, how many times have you given your brother, you know, $200,000 for his birthday?

For his birthday.

Yeah, I'd be cutting back quite a bit from what I normally give give him yeah but well but you're not part of the fancy elite that's true i don't think there's anything here to see i mean no no no break it up break it up there's nothing to see move along

how's your little yappy dog bat

uh very yappy what's your what's your very yappy what's her name a cupcake or bell

Her name is Belle.

That's right.

She's up on the library shelf.

She loves to read.

Right.

And then the beast comes in.

She does.

Anyway,

we both feed our dogs

kibble food, and then we put rough greens on top of it, full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants.

You know, he feeds Belle kibble food.

Uno eats Belle.

We just pour out a bunch of bells into his...

you know, into his bowl and sprinkle some rough greens when they stop moving a little bit.

And then he just eats them.

So it's good.

No matter what you feed your dog, you know, other dogs or kibble food, it's good for your dog to have this.

Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, you name it.

If it's healthy for your dog, it's most likely in Rough Greens.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

We're glad you're here.

Looks like we've had a few protests, and there are a few

who are Palestinian or on the Palestinian bandwagon that believe that

Hamas is not a terrorist group.

It's a charity.

And whatever the Israelis had, they had coming to them.

It's a disturbingly high number here in America from a new poll.

We'll begin in 60 seconds on that.

All right, just want to get this out because the State Department has just issued a travel advisory.

So if you are traveling today, they are advising against any travel to Lebanon or Iraq.

Which just

booked my trip to Beirut.

I know.

Darn it.

Because it's so, it seems this time of year.

Oh, it's so beautiful.

It's beautiful.

Beautiful.

Just as the dead body chalk outlines are being washed away in the autumn rains.

Oh, it's so

lovely.

So nice.

I know.

And you, at night, it's like the heavens are alive because you can see all the stars because there's no power.

And you can see all of the stars.

And then it reflects on that fresh blood in the streets.

Yeah, yeah.

And then the tracer fire as it's going

up into the sky.

Beautiful.

Sometimes reds.

You know,

if you're going to go to Beirut, I mean,

this is the time to do it.

Don't cancel.

And the

same with Iraq.

Yeah.

I mean, you got to get there.

Beautiful.

You know, when are you going to get there again?

It's only going to get worse.

Yeah.

You know, go see it.

Go see it.

Traveling.

I saw that.

The State Department is offering a travel advisory.

They're warning you shouldn't.

Really?

No, not that beautiful trip we've been planning for years to Beirut.

Don't ruin that for us.

Wait a minute.

What about Gaza?

Is Gaza safe?

Because our cruise was going to stop in Gaza City.

Yeah.

It was one of the port cities where we

shoot.

You know, and I booked the Klinghoffer suite

on the cruise ship.

And gosh,

boy.

Okay.

Here closer to home,

Senna

Karasafi has worked at Texas AM since 2006.

She teaches courses in the Department of International Affairs.

Students enrolled in different courses that she teaches claim she has referred to Hamas as a charity organization or a humanitarian group.

That's not what they are.

In case you don't know, they're an Islamist militant movement.

a student taking the course, Political Islam and Jihad, said the teacher prohibits students from recording her lectures or taking pictures of slideshow presentations.

Oh, I bet she does.

Online reviews of rate my professors mention that the course's information is inaccurate and ideologically slanted, with students alleging that she doesn't provide real adequate sources.

The student said she was taught that Israel helped create Hamas like the U.S.

helped create al-Qaeda.

Students also allege that the professor has denied the Armenian genocide in her classes.

Well, that's probably why she doesn't want any sources because you really have to go to Turkish

sources or Islamic sources to be able to hear that fresh, fresh look at the Armenian genocide.

And you want that fresh look.

You do.

Don't you?

You do.

I want to look at all sides.

But I only want to get credit if I agree on the professor's side.

Yes.

You know what I mean?

That's right.

Because they have all of the truth.

Now, Bill Mark came out and

he said,

you know,

the students at these elite colleges,

he said, with recent events, I think it shows that if you go to these places, it just makes you stupid.

Here he is.

And finally, New Rule, as an Ivy League graduate who knows the value of a liberal education, I have one piece of advice for the youth of America.

Don't go to college.

And if you absolutely have to go, don't go to an elite college, because as recent events have shown, it just makes you stupid.

There are few, if any, positives to come out of what happened in Israel, but one of them is opening America's eyes to how higher education has become indoctrination into a stew of bad ideas, among them the simplistic notion that the the world is a binary place where everyone is either an oppressor or oppressed.

In the case of Israel, oppressors being babies and bubbas.

The same students who will tell you that words are violence and silence is violence were very supportive when Hamas terrorists went on a rape and murder rampage worthy of the Vikings.

They knew where to point the fingers at the murdered, and then it was off to ethics class.

Now, I recognize that a certain amount of foolishness is expected of college kids, but mixing Jaegermeister and tomato juice isn't the same as siding with terrorists.

34 student groups at Harvard signed a letter that said the apartheid regime is the only one to blame, proving they don't know what constitutes apartheid.

They don't know much of anything, actually.

But it doesn't deter them from having an opinion.

They've convinced themselves Israel is the most repressive regime in history because they have no knowledge of history or even a desire to know it.

And actual history doesn't come up in their intersectionality of politics and gender queer identities class.

Okay.

There you go.

So there's Bill Maher

over the weekend.

And just to prove that you're an idiot, if you go to school,

Oregon high school graduates won't have to prove basic mastery of reading, writing, or math until at least 2029 after the State Board of Education voted unanimously to pause the requirement.

Oregon high school students

will not have to take a test to prove that they can read, write, or do arithmetic.

Now,

because I can read and write, it's actually arithmetic, but

arithmetic.

Because it's the three three R's.

Right.

So it needs to start with an R.

Right.

But it doesn't.

But no.

Well, it should be the two Rs and an A.

No, it should be one R, one W.

Oh, yeah.

You're right.

See?

I know.

Which is with a which is with an R,

but when it could also be spelled with a W for right.

Yes.

Yeah.

Okay.

So we got that going for us.

I can do this simple math,

Pat.

And you just did.

And I just did.

I don't know which right I would write down for this, but

anyway.

So now the kids could go to college and not read,

not be able to do math.

So that's a good, that's a good system.

Can you imagine if

you

had a job like apparently teachers have where you can teach the kids and,

you know, they're all showing up for reading writing arithmetic

and uh

yeah they can't do any of it they don't do any of it and nobody says anything about your performance nobody's like it's a good gig yeah if you can get it i like that yeah i like that wow so oregon has just gone to hell are they they're like california on steroids now which is why part of the state's trying to secede so yeah yeah my you know my grandfather was right he said the people who are too weird for California are coming up here and they're going to wreck it.

And they are.

That's exactly what is.

That's exactly what is happening.

So you got that going for you.

Meanwhile, as the Halloween season looms,

one man decided to get on to Tinder.

Is Tinder the one that you swipe right or left, right?

Okay.

Yeah.

And it's not like that's a good hooker at a good price.

That is like real people, right?

Real people, people, yeah.

Okay, yeah, sure.

Anyway, so apparently,

this guy named Derek,

that's all we know,

he posted that he just matched with his dead wife on Tinder.

He said, I had swiped left so many times, I almost missed it.

I wish I had.

Now, when you're swiping left, is that like...

I think that's a reject, right?

Is that a reject?

Yeah.

So he almost, he was rejecting his wife.

Almost.

Wow.

And so he didn't, even his dead wife.

Well, you get into a habit of just, you just go.

Okay.

Well, I...

You sound like you have experience with Tinder.

I've heard.

You've heard.

Okay.

All right.

I skimmed through her profile.

There was no writing, but three other pictures of my dead wife I had never seen before, including one at the Statue of Liberty behind her.

I knew we had never been to New York City, nor had she, at least to my knowledge.

I swiped right and I breathed for the first time in nearly two minutes.

I struggled to sleep for the next 48 hours, never getting a match, ready to message Tinder and tell them someone is impersonating my beloved dead wife on the app and doing some sort of magical Photoshop to put her in pictures.

The match came in at 3:33 a.m.

and

he got a message back.

Just said a simple hi.

Wow.

Powerful.

Yeah, powerful.

Power powerful.

He's like, he wanted to say, you know, he wrote her back.

Who is this?

Why are you doing this?

Where'd you get these pictures of my wife?

She died of cervical cancer two years ago.

You're a monster.

Probably not the response.

That's going to get him a date.

Yeah, probably not.

That doesn't sound promising.

Yeah, yeah.

At all.

So he said, you know, somebody is doing this to me,

somebody who obviously doesn't like me.

Or maybe

it's not your wife.

It's somebody who looks like your wife.

Right.

You know,

I'm just saying.

Doesn't it have the names of the people?

It does, right?

Yeah.

Well.

is a person that shares the same name as his wife?

Is that.

That's not in the story.

Okay.

That's not in the story.

All right.

However, however, however, he went on and told the story.

And one of the comments said,

my late partner put a song on Amazon playlist and then changed my Pinterest account to a pet name that only the two of us know.

So it's happened to me.

Wow.

Are you scared?

A little bit?

Yeah.

I mean, we're coming up to Halloween.

That is.

Yeah.

That's really.

Wow.

So the dead are coming to life on Tinder?

Yes.

That's.

Or is this like a lifetime movie where the person didn't really die?

They just faked their death.

It could be.

And now

they're showing up on TV.

But if you were a Brit, you'd never figure that out because here's the latest research from Great Britain.

Okay.

Apparently.

Brits

have very little idea about anything to do with space.

And that's probably because they never went there, you know, and they were like, ah, the Americans did it.

We're losers.

We're not going to brush our teeth.

And that's where they just left me at that.

So nearly two-thirds of them have no idea how many planets are in the solar system.

Come on.

Two-thirds of

British.

Okay.

How many planets in the solar system?

12.

No, come on.

15.

There's nine.

Unless you don't count Pluto, then there's eight.

Okay, you ready for this?

This is how much you want to talk about anti-Semitism.

This is how much this writer and this research company hates the UK.

Okay.

All right.

Researchers have discovered 49%

citizens of the UK do not have a clue about space.

Nearly two-thirds don't know how many planets are in the solar system.

One in five said nine

instead of the correct number, eight.

That doesn't count.

That does not count.

Stop it.

Because I still, I still accept Pluto as a planet.

I do too.

I'm not going to let that chunk of ice fly out there all by itself without someone.

Pluto's a planet.

That's right.

So to me,

it still is.

It is.

Now,

they're not as smart as we think either because 14%, and I don't know how you tie your shoes, 14%

could not name a single planet in the solar system.

Oh, come on.

Including Earth.

I would imagine that includes Earth.

Yeah.

So they're just, I just wanted to give you something that makes you feel a little better about superior.

Yeah.

Robert Plant

has

in concert,

and people said it was spine chilling, right?

Yeah, they said it was chilling.

Yeah, chilling.

Yeah.

He, for the first time in 14 years, 16.

16 years, performed Stairway to Heaven.

Yes.

And here it is.

We got to zip ahead, or otherwise,

it's like a 14-minute intro.

But he's really

the hill.

Yeah, that's a different kind of chilling.

Yeah, well, that's chillingly.

That's actually the good part.

But she wants to be sure.

Because you know, sometimes words help

to me.

Okay, not really cut.

I mean it's sad, but

still has a songbird that sings.

Sometimes all of my thoughts are misgiving.

Yeah, it's not really play, but

you know.

It's 75.

Yeah.

And it makes me wonder.

Okay.

Now it's starting to

fall apart a little bit.

You should have played just the highlight of it.

Yeah.

No, honey.

No.

It's like

it's starting to really fall apart badly here.

But there's a feeling I get

when I look

to the West

and my spirit is crying.

Now, let me ask you.

That's Robert Plant at 75.

Who's doing a better job?

Him or Joe Biden?

Robert Plant.

Right?

I'm here.

By fault.

You thought I was going to tear down Robert Plant.

No, no, no.

I want Robert Plant to feel good.

He's kicking ass.

As well.

You are smoking it, dude.

Smoking it.

Barbara wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory.

She says, I was hit by a car as a pedestrian.

I had to relearn how to walk, and I was always in pain after that.

But since I've been taking Relief Factor, I found the much needed relief from that pain.

Thank you, Relief Factor.

Barbara, I'm so glad that you're up and walking again.

God bless you.

I can't imagine.

If you've been dealing with pain in your life and you feel like you've tried everything, maybe it's time just to try Relief Factor.

Just give it a shot.

Three-week quick start.

You take it as directed for three weeks.

It's 1995.

It's a trial pack, not a drug.

It was developed by doctors, and more than a million people have bought Relief Factor's Quick Start.

And about 70% of them go on to order more.

Go to relieffactor.com.

That's relief factor.com or call 800, the number 4 relief.

Get the the 1995 three-week quick start.

Again, relief factor.com, 800, the number four relief.

Relief Factor.

so there's a new movie coming out

uh and it asks the question is america a police state

and more and more people are believing that it is i think it's up to 50 percent of the population now believes that you know justice can't be found and we're headed towards

real trouble um Dinesh D'Souza is the filmmaker.

No relation to John Phillips Souza that I know of, that I know of.

Dinesh is with us now.

Hi, Dinesh.

How are you?

Hey, Glenn.

It's a pleasure.

Thanks for having me on.

Sure, sure.

So tell me about the tell me about the film.

Police State.

Well, the the film is a um uh raises the question uh do we find now in america many of the features that we have previously identified with unfree, tyrannical or police state societies.

So think about North Korea or China, the old Soviet Union.

The defining features of those societies are what?

Well, mass surveillance of the citizens, we have that now.

Systematic censorship, we have that now.

the attempt to create a one-party state to lock up the leader of the opposition party, we have that now.

Criminalization of dissent, we have that now.

Indoctrination in the schools and propaganda in the media, we have that now.

Political prisoners, to some degree, we have that now.

So as I go down the checklist, I'm very alarmed to see that the old distinction that you and I and many others used to make with a free world and then there's the unfree world, these distinctions have really eroded, if not collapsed altogether.

Is there a place that is growing in freedom anywhere?

That's a really good question.

And in fact, somewhat toward the middle or the second part of the movie, I raised a startling possibility.

I call it police planet.

And I raise that because I noticed that with COVID,

you know, the same things happening in America were happening in Canada and in Australia, New Zealand, all over Europe.

And so it almost is as if we now have a Western model of the police state.

Then, of course, there is the Chinese model.

And the world, in a sense, is being made to choose between one police state or another.

And the people, I mean, what people haven't tied together yet is, you know, when you see people protesting the farmers in the Netherlands, and you have the people in the orange vests in France and the people for Brexit in England.

What they're really saying is the same thing that many people said in the Tea Party, and that is,

we don't want a global state.

We don't want the government in everything in our life.

We don't want the elites.

And it seems as though in every country, all parties are pushing in that direction.

Some of them are slowing it down, but nobody seems to be really pulling in the other direction.

And it's really the elites against the people.

And the elites are fine with locking up and police dating everybody.

I find it remarkable how people today with a straight face, and we're talking here about professors, we're talking here about government officials, we're talking here about figures at the UN or the World Economic Forum, they will make a bald-faced case for censorship without any reservation, without any hemming and hawing, without any sense of

giving an apology.

Like, you know, we don't really want to censor people, but we kind of have to.

And so there is a kind of blatant

appeal here to tyranny.

And yet, there are too many Americans, I think, who are a little blind to all this.

I liken them sort of to the antelope or the wildebeest where they go, you know, I'm not Trump.

And, you know, Dinesh, I didn't go in the Capitol on January 6th.

And so I pay my taxes.

And so I'm never going to have the FBI coming smashing through my door.

And the point of this film is to say to that guy, you could not be more wrong.

I have a lot of ordinary people in the film who experience the hot breath of the police state or, you know, what Orwell called the boot stamping on the human face.

And give me some of those examples.

Well, a good example of a guy is Mark Hauck.

He's a pro-life activist and he takes his son.

They go outside the abortion clinics and they counsel people and so on.

They don't interfere with anything.

Well, one of the counselors comes up to his son and starts hassling the kid, sort of insulting his dad in front of the kid.

So Mark Hauck gets kind of agitated and he pushes the guy.

He doesn't hit him.

He just pushes him.

The guy falls down and then runs into the clinic.

Well, eventually, Mark Howe finds the federal government charging him with violating the so-called FACE Act.

Now, the FACE Act is interfering with reproductive services at a clinic.

He wasn't doing that.

He wasn't blocking women from getting in the clinic.

This was a clinic counselor that came out and accosted him.

And yet he was facing years and years in prison.

But he decided, I'm not going to plea bargain.

I'm not going to take a deal.

I'm going to go before a jury.

And so not only does he tell his story, but he happened to have all this body cam footage of the FBI raid on his house.

All of that is in the film, and we recreate parts of his story.

So this is the beauty of a film: cinematically, you can bring it home to people.

They don't just hear about it, they can kind of feel it and see it.

So we are not, we're not in a police state as usually

defined yet, because usually a police state happens

shortly after what we're going through right now.

Just chaos everywhere, crime everywhere.

You know, and they'll close the borders and lock things up and tell everybody exactly what to do.

And then you have the police state.

We have the emerging police state.

Do you agree with that or disagree?

I agree completely.

In fact, I think it's fair to say that if it was a full-fledged police state, I couldn't have made this film.

And quite likely, you and I could not be having this conversation.

So we are not in a full-fledged police state.

I also think that you have, you know, put your finger on a couple of anomalies in America, which are unusual for police states.

Normally, police states have very low crime.

You know, you try in China going on the subway and starting to beat up some guy or punch some woman on the subway.

The cops will come and beat you up and take you away.

So police states normally have a small side benefit, which is they are very orderly.

They're usually very clean.

And so we have this rampant criminality in our cities is a little inconsistent with the police state.

But we address this in the movie.

The other thing that's interesting is that police states normally have a Berlin wall.

They have a wall.

You can't get in.

You can't get out.

They restrict the movement in and out.

But we have a police state with a porous border.

And that's strange.

And so you have to, again, this is something that the movie addresses.

Why do we have an open border in this emerging police state?

And the answer is that the people who are building the police state don't have a clear majority.

They want to alter the population demographically so that they have the kind of majorities that FDR had in the middle of the 20th century, where it's essentially a one-party state and the Democrats can do whatever they want.

So is there an answer to stopping this at this point?

Because they seem to hold all of the cards now.

Well, they don't hold all the cards.

I mean, just look right today, the Supreme Court took the very important case of Missouri versus Biden.

Now, this is a case exposing the full collaboration between the multiple agencies of government.

I mean, not just one or two, like 15 agencies of government and the digital platforms.

Now, what the Supreme Court did, and this court clearly moved slowly, is they lifted an injunction that would have prohibited the government from continuing to sort of work with these digital platforms.

They said, okay, we're going to lift the injunction, but we're going to take the case with a decision to come in the spring.

Now, you know, for me, that's too slow.

I mean, I believe in the good old justice delayed is justice denied.

There are people being censored.

Right now, the Supreme Court apparently says the government can keep censoring them for another six months until the Supreme Court gets its act together.

I think in the end, they will strike it down, and that will be a major blow against the police state.

You know, I was talking to Alan Dershowitz, and

he said,

I've been rating us on a banana scale.

10 bananas, you're a full banana republic.

He said, I'm up to six.

Now, this was about a month ago, And

I think we called him and asked him if he had added some.

And I think that he has added one.

So, you know, we're up to seven out of ten.

Banana Republic,

we're seeing that.

And what's happening to Donald Trump is remarkable.

His free speech being taken away.

He can't comment.

I mean, how is that even possible in America?

It's insane.

I mean, look,

had they filed a single charge against Trump and said, look, you know,

you held on pugnaciously to those documents.

We tried to get you to give them back.

You refused.

And so we think a criminal charge is the only way that's going to get you to cooperate.

You know, we could look at the merits of it.

But 90-plus charges in multiple jurisdictions with a clear shotgun approach, if we can't get him over here, we'll get you over there.

I mean, this is classic police state thuggery.

And so it is sometimes, you know, you know, Glenn, I came to the United States as a teenager.

I've always been a rah-rah American.

It's not just the opportunity, but the basic freedoms and the bill of rights.

But if you were to ask me now with a straight face, are we a free society?

I would hesitate.

I mean, I would not want to say no, and yet I cannot say yes.

Yeah, I agree.

With the, you know, you did the,

what was it, thousand, was it thousand mules?

Two thousand mules.

Um, you did 2,000 mules right after the 2020 election.

I have not seen any evidence that things have been cleaned up at all or made safer.

Are we going to be able to trust this election?

You know, I don't know the answer to that.

I do know that

there has been some progress with the election integrity laws.

I know that there have been some efforts to insist upon surveillance for all the drop boxes.

This is obviously the job of the campaigns and of the RNC.

You know, if you're asking me, do I have a lot of confidence that they are doing all the things that are necessary?

I would have to say no,

same as you.

But you know, you mentioned the thing about a banana republic, Len, and I want to say that a police state of the American type is far more sinister than a banana republic.

I mean, I sort of grew up in a banana republic.

India is kind of a banana republic.

The good thing about banana republics is that they're really stupid and that they have a lot of petty corruption.

And you can actually make your way in a banana republic.

Nothing really works all that well.

But on the other hand, they don't have their noose around your neck.

By and large, India is too chaotic for it to be a tyrannical society, even though there are some police state elements in there now.

If the United States becomes a police state, it will be very sinister.

It will actually be worse than the Soviet Union.

There's a scene in Soljuneitson's gulag about a woman who is told at the train station, they're coming for you.

Get on the train and go.

But she goes to her apartment.

They're waiting for her.

She gets arrested.

But then Soljanitson says, too bad she didn't get on the train.

She could have disappeared in vast mother Russia and they would never have found her.

But I think you know as well as I do, that's not true today.

They would find you right away.

I said in 2008

that if we don't stop this slide, we're going to be, we're going to make the Nazis look like rookies.

And I think that we better stop this slide pretty quickly because it is ultimate global power now.

I mean, I just went on a plane yesterday and they, you know, they take your ID and they don't just look at it.

Now they take your ID, swipe it, and they take a picture of your face.

And it's like, what?

I mean,

they're closing all of these exits for you to be able to just be on your own.

You can't do it anymore.

Well,

the other reason I think that, and this is also a reason to make a movie, is because our police state is in camouflage.

It's not open about its motives.

It marches behind the banner of saving democracy and, you know, upholding the rule of law and affirming truth in the face of misinformation and disinformation.

So there's a lot of subterfuge and camouflage to bamboozle the ordinary American as if to say, we're not building a police state.

We're just fighting for truth and justice on the American way.

one thing that a film can do is like unmask and rip the facade facade off so people can see really what they're up against.

Tanesh J'sa, Police State.

It is in theaters tomorrow, Tuesday the 23rd, and Wednesday the 25th.

That would be the 24th, I think.

The virtual premiere.

So it's the opening day is actually today.

Today.

And then Wednesday, the 25th in hundreds of theaters.

And policestatefilm.net is the only place to get tickets.

So don't go to the theater.

Don't try to buy them in Sandango.

Go to policestatefilm.net.

And this movie has tremendous traction.

By the way, if you cannot go to the theater on Friday the 27th, this coming Friday, we have a virtual premiere where you can watch from home details and tickets on the same website.

That's great.

Policestatefilm.net.

Dinesh, as always, good to talk to you.

Thank you so much.

A pleasure.

You bet.

Iran has ramped up its rhetoric against Israel sending oil prices surging, paired with a dip in the U.S.

oil reserves and now six Chinese ships in the Gulf region.

This is putting us in a pinch.

Prices are going to go higher, and we're going to have to print more money.

You know, when our treasury says, oh, we've got plenty of money, and we don't.

We have no money.

But anyway, in uncertain times, diversify with gold line.

Gold or silver are the things that usually

counter any kind of inflation.

You buy five one-ounce gold legal tender bars cards right now, and you'll get one two-ounce silver maple flex, 20 copper Mayflower rounds, and 50 mind-your-business silver bars.

All that for free.

Buy one,

sorry, five one-ounce gold legal tender bar cards.

You get all the rest of it for free.

Call them, they're waiting for your call now at 866 Goldline.

866Goldline or goldline.com.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Chronic migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more.

Botox, Anobotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start.

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

It prevents on average eight to nine headache days days a month versus 6 to 7 for placebo.

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 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.

Well, tomorrow, hopefully, we won't be in World War III.

I mean, I don't think it's going to happen.

And I also don't think we're going to have a Speaker of the House.

So we have those two things going.

Tomorrow or ever?

Well, tomorrow.

Okay.

Tomorrow.

Yeah.

But tomorrow, we do have a major announcement on some things that are happening at Blaze Media.

We have been battling with big tech for a long time.

I told you there would come a time where we would...

where things would change, and the time is now.

And we have a major announcement on tomorrow's broadcast that you don't want to miss.

And we're going to hide it like an Easter egg.

you're going to have to work to get that information.

Or we'll just make it really easy and transparent.

I haven't decided yet.

But that's on tomorrow's program.

Thank you so much for listening today.

Thank you for all that you do.

Thanks for spreading hope and

believing in God.

Thank you.

God bless.
