Dear GOP: Get Your Crap Together | 10/16/23

2h 8m
Glenn gives a history lesson on the background between Israel and Palestine, explaining why Israel defending itself is the only solution. Despite the drastically wrong climate change predictions, “experts” still claim it’s a dire issue. Glenn takes calls from listeners to discuss varying topics like his 40 Days to Renew the Covenant, climate change, and Aleksandr Dugin. Glenn discusses the difficulty and importance of battling addiction. Glenn and Stu discuss the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and the issues in our own country. Glenn and Stu blast House Republicans for struggling to agree on a new speaker. Glenn and Stu examine where the pro-life movement should focus next to continue changing the nation’s opinion on abortion. America needs to cut ties with China and find another country to produce our commodities.

You got to

make up.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together, it's the corners of night.

Stand up straight and hold the light.

You got to, you made up.

It's a new day of time to rise.

We gotta stand together, it's the colors of life.

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.

A lot of truth dropping on today's program.

We begin dropping some of that truth in 60 seconds.

First, a guy that has been looking to get on this program for a long time, Bill Binkerson, is

trying to do work.

Bill Binkerson is here with us.

Hi, Bill.

How are you?

You there?

Yeah.

Yes, hello.

Hi, how are you?

Yes, I'm here.

I don't know what I'm doing, but I'm here.

Well, you've been looking forward to talk about that shoe that apparently is lodged somewhere in a cavity of yours.

Several orifices are filled with shoes.

Sounds painful.

I should throw out different footwear.

Sandals.

I've got a Birkenstock.

Yeah, you don't want to hear any more about that, but how it got up there.

But it was a hell of a night.

So it wasn't in trouble.

It was.

Oh, it was what I would call recreational.

Okay.

But you're in a lot of pain.

You're in a lot of pain.

Sure am.

Yeah.

You know what?

They don't come out as easily as they go in.

Don't say that much.

Have you tried

reducing the inflammation, maybe being able to help?

Well, no, there's no product available to do that.

No, there's a relief factory.

No, I don't want to do any medicine.

That way, heavy medicines with a heavy side effect.

No, no, no problem.

You could still drive.

I mean, do you drive heavy machinery?

That's how it all starts.

Right.

So you can operate heavy machinery on this, so don't worry about it, Bill.

Relief Factor.

Relief Factor.

Do you have to drive that standing up or?

Oh, yes.

Special chair I made.

It resembles a toilet seat.

Oh, we're in trouble on today's program.

ReliefFactor.com.

That's relieffactor.com.

Call 800, the number four.

Relief.

Feel the difference.

This is going to be a catastrophe.

What people you don't understand is Stu never has any idea.

We

never tell him, oh, I'm coming to you.

I hate you.

And so

that is

very un-Christ-like of you.

Welcome to Monday's podcast.

We're glad that you have joined us today.

There's a lot

to talk about, and it's guest-free today, so your chance to call in.

We want to hear from you.

888-727-BECK.

Whatever is on your mind, anything that we can do to further enlighten you.

You know, I think that's what we do best here.

So anyway,

let's see.

There's a couple of things.

NBC, that incredibly

right-wing organization of NBC,

showed some documents that they obtained, exclusive coverage on NBC that show Hamas created detailed plans to target elementary schools and a youth center

in

part of their attack.

In Arabic, it shows

the map and where they need to go.

And it says, kill as many people as possible.

They're also labeled top secret.

Now they came off of the body of one of the people, Israel, sent to Allah this weekend.

And I feel bad about that.

Well, actually, I don't.

But

he's with his, is it 80 or is it 90 virgins?

I think it's 80 virgins, right?

How many virgins are there?

I know it's only 70 something.

How many virgins we get in these days?

I don't see.

Is there exchange rate?

Has it been inflation?

I'm not.

Would you look it up?

I think it's 80 virgins that you get.

That's what you used to get in the old days.

72.

72 virgins.

72 virgins.

Well,

it's based on the American dollar, so it's probably

thousands at this point.

Yeah.

So anyway, hey, by the way, just a tip.

If Israel is sending you home to your virgins, you've only got 72 of them and all eternity.

you know, don't get up there and go, oh, like, I got 72.

Space them out.

Space them out.

Anyway, so we've got that news.

Meanwhile, people are still saying, I think this is wrong, what Israel is doing.

Really?

You know, the president said yesterday that on 60 Minutes, and boy, was he dynamic.

What a fireball that guy was.

He was asked if Israel should, quote, occupy Gaza.

Here's what he said, cut six.

Would you support Israeli occupation of Gaza at this point?

I think it'd be a big mistake.

Look,

what happened in Gaza, in my view, is

Hamas and the extreme elements of Hamas don't represent all the Palestinian people.

They sound very weak.

And I think that

it would be a mistake

for Israel to occupy

Gaza again.

Okay, stop for a second.

I don't think it's a mistake to occupy.

Well, I mean, I wouldn't live there, but

I think Israel should park their car there.

You know what I mean?

Park a lot of cars there.

It could be, you know, some sort of a parking lot that they make in.

I think you should be done with this experiment.

How many times do we have to do this before people get it?

Hamas and the Palestinian.

The whole thing is a sham.

Now, that doesn't mean that there aren't good Palestinians, et cetera, et cetera, but that's not what this movement is about, nor has it ever been about.

The Palestinian people have been used

over and over again by people who just want to kill Jews.

That's it.

That's been the

thing from the very beginning.

Now, were there people that, you know, would like to share the land?

I'm sure.

But you, I'm sorry, have got to treat the Palestinians that live in Gaza

and are in the Middle East.

You have to treat them the way we treated all Germans.

All Germans weren't bad, but those Germans voted Hitler in and fought for Hitler.

And they were like, it's, you know, it's pretty great.

Well, it wasn't pretty great.

And as soon as the German people said, you know what, this isn't pretty great.

I don't want anything to do with this anymore.

It was over.

And the world could live together.

And because of communist Russia, Germany got a two-state solution.

And that worked out really well.

And obviously, you're exaggerating at some level of saying you want to turn it into a parking lot.

I mean, a nice one.

Yeah, a nice one.

But I would argue, why not just a park, right?

Like, you could have a nice big, and I would use turf because it's really hard to maintain grass in a large swath of land.

I think it's like that, but I would just

roll out the turf over that area.

And no one lives there.

Nobody.

Nobody lives there.

You know, I have no problem you want to make it into farmland because the Palestinian people are going to need food because Israel, I mean, Egypt is not going to feed them.

Israel and the United States were the ones sending the food into Gaza, and they're the ones that hate us, but that's fine.

Make Gaza into a farmland, and then Jordan and Egypt,

maybe even Iran could take the Palestinian people and divide up something like Egypt's got a lot of land.

A lot of land.

A lot of land.

A lot of open space there.

Yeah.

And again, all these people,

they're not, they just need, they can't be part of this country anymore.

Right?

Like, there's just no way.

It makes absolutely no sense for Israel to have a,

I don't know, an oasis for Hamas in the middle of their country.

It makes literally no sense.

No sense.

You're going to have to find a different place to go because, look, we tried this.

And stupidly, by the way, it was a stupid thing for Israel to try to say, hey, well, what if we just let them vote in Hamas and see what happens over the next couple decades?

That is the key.

It's ridiculous.

That is key.

They voted Hamas in.

Yeah.

And the same thing can be said for the Germans back in the day.

They didn't really have a chance to change their mind if they decided leadership wasn't so great.

Like they once they did vote them in in a widely approved election.

This was not something that like people, you know, watchers from around the world were saying was a fake election or a bad fixed election.

They put Hamas in power.

Now, Hamas did not give them a chance to overrule them later and take them out of power.

Maybe they've all changed their opinion on Hamas.

Opinion polling does not show that.

Right.

We should note.

But maybe now they have.

Maybe they were so horrified by these attacks.

Who knows?

The last opinion poll I saw, now this is years ago, but the last opinion poll I saw, it was like 97% or 93%

of Palestinians agreed with killing the Jews, using terror, cutting, you know, cutting people's heads off, killing civilians, kidnapping children.

Yes.

It was very, very high, and it was

much higher than it should be.

Let's put it that way.

So these are also people that were just last week celebrating in the streets.

Okay.

I mean, if my government,

let's be honest, if you found out today

that the United States was over kidnapping Russian children and just going into houses in Russia and just shooting innocent

women and children, would you be out passing cookies outside?

Because I wouldn't be.

No.

I'd be ashamed.

Yeah.

And look, this is time for another asterisk here, right?

These people have been indoctrinated.

They are very similar to the people who live in North Korea that are told that Kim Jong-un

is

a god, right?

You listen to the children from these regions talking about the Jews.

It's Horrible.

They've been taught this from birth.

Correct.

And it is very difficult.

And you could say that about the Hitler youth.

Yeah, exactly.

You could say that about the Hitler.

But at some point, the Palestinian people need to stand up and say, we don't think it's right killing Jews anymore.

Okay.

And unfortunately, history has shown us the only way that happens is to bomb the snot out of people.

And I'm sorry, but history has shown when you have attempted over and over and over again

to be able to give people peace.

Here,

let's just live in peace.

You do this, I'll do that.

And just live in peace.

Nope, they're not interested.

They are not interested.

They've been offered a two-state solution.

They turn it down.

Why?

Because it's about killing all of the Jews.

That's all that is.

Period.

Period.

And by the way, if anybody is feeling badly, I understand that.

I don't want to kill innocent women and children either.

Israel has a right to defend itself.

And if that's what you need to do, by the way, they are dropping flyers from the sky.

Have been all weekend.

Please leave this area.

Please evacuate.

We're coming in the next 24 hours.

Well, we did that too.

We did that in Japan.

It's my pretty clear understanding that would make us in Israel the only ones that warn people,

please leave.

Our war is not against you.

It's against your leadership.

And even...

Even when we dropped these on

80 million of these flyers in Japan before we bombed them.

It said, our argument is not with you.

Our argument is with your government.

But you must tell your government to stop.

Well, they eventually did.

Unfortunately, it took two bombs, but eventually they did.

Typical pro-Western propaganda here in the Glenbeck program, as usual.

This is exactly what I would expect you to say.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

You know, you don't even care about the innocent victims in Gaza.

You know,

it's fascinating to see you at work.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And

by the way,

you know, considering your evil pro-Western ways, it was nice to see you actually jump into the fray a little bit in Israel, finally deciding to get off your horse and get on your horse and

pick up a few people over there on some planes that you sent.

It was good to see you.

Yeah.

How can I put it?

Maybe

shamed by Ron DeSantis, who was already doing it.

You know, maybe you felt this is where you're going.

This is where you're going.

Look, I'm just saying I'm glad you finally got off your butt and decided to actually help some people over there in the Middle East.

So,

wow, that's refreshing coming from you.

People were so turned up.

They're like, why are you going after Glenn about his not doing anything after all he's done in Afghanistan and everything else?

And I was like, I know he can't say anything about it.

The mission's ongoing.

So I can say he he hasn't done anything this whole time on the air over and over again.

And he can't defend himself because these we wow, listen to him.

So what he's trying to do now is trying to make an excuse for himself.

He's trying to make an excuse.

No, I was just kidding because Glenn couldn't defend himself.

You had no idea that we were sending that.

Really?

You had no idea.

Well, why didn't she say anything?

What?

If you were

so hurt

by by what you said.

Oh, dear.

Okay, that was.

Anyway, yeah,

thanks to Mercury One and our partners,

our first plane was supposed to be there

yesterday, leaving.

It has been delayed, and we are trying to get as many planes over there as we can to rescue, or I'm sorry, to

bring home as many Americans as we possibly can.

And there's more to this story, but I can't speak about it now.

But please pray for all those Americans that don't have a way out.

By the way, we're not,

you know, I know we have these giant gray planes, you know, the president has access to.

And I heard this weekend that they are going to start picking people up, which I applaud.

And then they're dumping them in Germany, and then they're charging people.

Thanks to Mercury One and our partners, we are picking people up in Israel and we are bringing them home to the United States.

And we're not charging anybody,

which is very nice.

But that is all thanks to you and Mercury One and the Nazarenefund.org.

Okay, back in just a second.

Pre-born, when you put your hand over your heart and you're still for a moment,

What do you feel?

Well, you feel your heartbeat.

I mean, if I'm going to be literal about it, you feel your heartbeat.

It shows that you're alive.

Heartbeats show that you are alive.

That's the thing when

we show a woman an ultrasound who is struggling and thinking about having an abortion, when she sees her baby on an ultrasound and hears the heartbeat, it doubles the chance she picks life.

That's an amazing thing.

For $28,

you can show this woman her baby and possibly save a baby's life.

There's about 200 lives saved every day because of pre-born.

$28 is the key.

Could you help out?

Just dial pound250, say the keyword baby, and make a donation.

10 seconds, station ID.

888-727-BECK is the phone number, Jason.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Thank you for taking my call.

I just wanted to say that you guys, you and Stu, I listen to you daily.

I drive truck.

I'm in Massachusetts right now, and I listened to Geoben this morning.

I never know on Monday mornings what I'm going to hear and I just got to say the hearing of humor I had my duct tape ball wrapped around my head and the black box book tape mount and I had gorilla tape because of what

hearing that this morning has released some pressure out of my mind so I don't know how you do it daily how you digest this every day of your life and still find humor is adamorable

or the sign of insanity one of the two

rinse and repeat and it just you know every day is a struggle, right?

And we just get up.

We just get up and do the best we can.

But it's important to have laughter in our lives.

And I just, I really, really, truly appreciate you and Stu for what you guys do and able to put that into your program and knowing when to be serious and when to hey, you know, wow, that's just, you know, it is what it is.

We've just got to laugh off because what else are you going to do?

But real quick, I just wanted to say I'm at the point now where I get phone calls for money, money, money, money, money.

And I'm so irritated by getting asked for money because you just feel like it's just getting flushed on the toilet.

And

you know, now, you know, always being a Republican

and in in the state of Maine, you have to be either or to vote.

You can't just be an independent and go either way.

Yeah.

So it it'd be nice if they just put, you know, America as a party and and and America first.

But um

I don't know what the loss that way with where where to give the money when someone calls you up and say that's like, you know, they're asking for money for the Republican Party.

Yeah.

Do you have any advice on that at all?

Yeah, Yeah, I don't get.

I mean, I can only tell you what I do.

I don't give to the Republican Party.

I don't give to the Democratic Party.

I don't give to any party.

If I like a candidate, I'll give it to the candidate, but I'm not writing a check to the party.

But thank you so much for your call.

God bless you.

Wow.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

I can tell you why Stu's in such a good mood today.

You know, Eagles broke another record

yesterday, and congratulations.

What record did they break?

Well, they didn't exactly break a, they allowed a record to be broken.

Oh, really?

What was it?

That they had never lost to the Jets in their franchise history?

Yeah.

And then they finally did?

Or is it that they have the best record in the NFL?

Which one was the first one?

The first one.

Okay.

The first one.

So they beat them 12 out of 13 times, but they did lose once in a

barrising fashion, but still.

And

it was a great record to be broken.

Yeah, you know, I want fairness for everybody.

You do.

You do.

And that's what that's must have been.

Must have been what they were doing yesterday.

I noticed that you're avoiding the real news today.

I am.

Yes.

What is the real news?

Oh, my gosh, you're going to play that.

The news from Dr.

Housefather.

Dr.

House Father.

Dr.

House Father.

Real name.

Dr.

Zeke House Father.

This is the team Doctor of the New York Jets?

No, this is

don't play this game with me, Stu.

You're starting to piss me off now.

Dr.

House Father, as you clearly know, is the climate research lead

at the payments company Stripe.

The climate research lead.

Yeah, the climate research lead at the payments company Stripe.

Stripe, meaning the place that you swipe credit cards and they...

Yeah, they process.

They process credit cards.

They process.

Why do they have a climate lead?

Because when you can get somebody like Dr.

Housefather on your staff, you just scrap, you go.

You go.

Who's the climate lead of Square?

Double Plutt, please.

Don't play that game with him like we don't know.

Dr.

Housefather, he is also the research scientist at the independent

Berkeley Earth.

or Erkley Birth or Erkley Bird.

Right.

Okay.

It's an organization that analyzes environmental data, of course.

Very independent.

I'm sure.

So huge.

So independent.

Here's what Dr.

Housefather has said.

Okay.

Staggering.

I'm quoting.

Unnerving, mind-boggling.

Absolutely gob-smackingly bananas.

I want the t-shirt.

I want the t-shirt.

Yes, I do.

Absolutely gob-smackingly bananas.

Yeah.

I want to say that in my daily life all the time.

He has said global temperatures have shattered records and reached dangerous new highs over and over in the last few months.

Really?

Yes.

Wow.

And he and his fellow climate scientists at Stripe

have the place like, and just to be clear, this isn't like Visa or MasterCard climate scientists.

These are the ones that process the payments of Visa and MasterCard.

Yes.

Yeah.

They're climate science team.

Yes.

Okay.

Okay.

Uh-huh.

So they said, he said, I've run out of

adjectives to describe what they have seen.

That's not true.

He had gobsmackingly bananas.

Which is fantastic.

Now, data from Berkeley Earth released on Wednesday shows that September was

an astounding 0.5 degrees Celsius, almost a full degree Fahrenheit hotter than the prior record.

And July and August were 0.3 degrees Celsius, 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit

hotter.

I mean, can you?

Yeah.

Why even continue civilization with a 0.3 degree temperature rise?

I mean, I don't even think you're going to be able to do it.

It happened three months in a row.

Three months in a row.

Okay.

He says that

the Stripe people, I shouldn't say that like that.

The climate researchers at Stripe said that 2023 is almost certain to be the hottest year since reliable global records began in the mid-1800s.

Wow.

So they were very reliable back then.

Very reliable in the mid-1800s.

If you go back to the mid-1800s, people just nailed science all the time.

He never had a problem.

Well, he said, you know,

1850s, you know, that's when we started keeping reliable, but he thinks it's the hottest it's probably been in the last 2,000 years

and maybe well before that.

That is gob-smackingly bananas now.

Some people will say, oh, El Nino.

Yes, that is one thing that I would say.

Yes.

Well, first of all, you're in America.

Speak American now.

The baby has nothing to do with it, okay?

Okay.

Yes, it's playing some role, but the global temperatures that they've experienced this year alone at Stripe, he said,

could not have occurred without the approximately 1.3 degrees celsius that's two and a half degrees fahrenheit

of warning of warming to date now he says

this is coming from human sources like carbon dioxide and other greenhouse emissions so in between processing the payment for my burrito at chipotle they decided to figure this all out Because that's impressive.

You don't have to do both of those things.

He has also figured out that now there's increasing evidence because of the last three months that global warming has accelerated over the last 15 years rather than at a gradual steady pace.

That's fascinating because it's warming at a lower pace than all of their projections going back years and years and years.

That's true, according to Stripe.

And

according to the payment processing company.

Yeah, they say it's not true.

Well, it's an interesting thing because you have all the graphs.

Back in the day, I don't don't know if they still do this because this has not worked out well for them, but they used to make long-term projections based on what they thought was going to happen.

And what we found out is what actually occurred with carbon emissions were higher than their highest estimates.

So there was more carbon poured into the atmosphere than their highest estimates.

And then the warming was lower than their lowest estimates.

So to me, that seems like utter and complete and catastrophic and gobsmackingly bananas failure.

He said.

But no.

There has been an acceleration over the past few decades in total heat content of the Earth's oceans, where 90% of the energy is trapped.

Trapped.

Trapped.

Our energy has been trapped.

Oh, no.

It's like held hostage by the oceans.

Do they have a panic room?

Did the oceans have panic rooms?

I don't know.

Then he has satellite measurements of Earth's energy imbalance.

It needs a chakra balancing.

Bring in Al Gore.

This is what do you bring in Al Gore for the chakra balance.

The difference between energy entering the atmosphere from the sun and the amount of heat leaving shows a strong increase in the amount of heat again trapped over the past two decades.

For 20 years, it's been trapped, screaming to get out.

If Earth's energy imbalance is increasing over time, it should drive an increase in the world's rate of warming, he says.

There's a number of factors driving the acceleration of warming.

Now, you need to hear that.

I need to hear the factors here.

The world has made real progress in slowing down the growth of carbon dioxide, this according to Stripe, and other greenhouse gases.

However, however,

for decades, the air pollution from sulfur dioxide and other hazardous substances in fossil fuels has had a strong temporary cooling effect on our climate.

But as countries around the world

go ahead, please finish.

As countries around the world have begun to clean up the air,

the cooling effect provided by aerosols

has fallen by around 30% since 2000.

So they told us

to stop using aerosols.

Right, because it was good for the environment.

And now they're saying the problem with the environment is that we've stopped using using aerosols.

Aerosols.

Aerosols have fallen

drastically in the past three years

because we're phasing all of them out.

The reductions in that pollution, on top of the continued increase in the atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, mean that we're encountering some of the unvarnished force of climate change for the first time.

Unvarnished force of climate change.

Wow.

Because we have now stopped using aerosol, which actually cooled the earth,

now we're seeing unprecedented growth.

Well, you know,

I think Dr.

Headfeather has won me over.

House Father.

I'm sorry, House Father

has won me over.

And, you know what, I think it's time to make some changes, Glenn.

You know, you think about what is really affecting this climate, it's these carbon emissions.

And a lot of that is by fossil fuel.

And a big portion of that, and probably the biggest portion of that, is this, you know, industrial greed where these companies are mining for all sorts of natural resources.

They're putting them into products, shipping them all over the world.

That's finally the truth.

And now they're being made so easy to purchase by these processing companies who come out here and they just make it so easy for these evil capitalists to screw up the earth.

We should shut down every payment processing company to save the globe.

Because how are you possibly helping things if what you're doing is making capitalism easier for people to participate in?

Shut Stripe down today.

Here's his conclusion.

I don't know where you got that.

Oh, that's different.

He says it's clear that we can control how warm the planet gets over the coming decades now.

Oh, it's clear we can do that.

No, he found the thermostat.

He found the thermostat.

Wow, I thought there was a lot of that.

Climate models have consistently found.

The same ones that said it was going to be warmer than it is now, and the same ones that mispredicted how much carbon would go in the outside of the hostility consistently found that once we get emissions down to net zero.

Oh, that should be easy.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait.

Soon as we get emissions down to net zero, the world will

largely

stop warming.

We've got some qualifiers in there.

All we have to do is completely wipe out all industry, industry, all industrial movements,

get rid of cars, get rid of coal.

And I don't mean get rid of cars like you know it.

I mean get rid of the electric cars because there's not enough electricity produced to be able to plug in just California's cars.

Oh, okay.

That's okay.

Yeah.

So he says, so the world will not cool back down

for many centuries.

Once it's hot, it's hot, even even if we're at net zero.

Unless,

unless

the world powers join in in major efforts to remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than we add.

Got it?

Right.

So

we not only have to go to net zero, we then have to remove even more carbon dioxide, which I think if

I think if America just holds its breath for like 10 years,

nobody breathes out, you can breathe in, no breathing out.

As long as we don't breathe out for about 10 years, maybe, maybe then America has done enough.

You know what?

I think you're right.

And we should highlight some success stories on this.

For example, can I give you one success story?

Sure.

A huge success story.

Just one nation, the nation of China that has been leading the fight against climate change.

Of course, as Al Gore said in his movie and speeches.

Joe Biden says it too.

Yeah, sure.

China today generates enough power from clean sources to power Germany six times over.

That's up from only two times a decade ago.

In a few years, China's clean power generation will be equal to U.S.'s total electricity consumption.

I mean, what a win, right?

That's an incredible win.

Huge, the clean energy.

I didn't realize they were that.

Big win.

They're really pumping out the solar panels.

Sure.

Solar generation and wind generation alone is about to hit three times Germany's total electricity consumption next year.

Wow.

If China's power demand had stayed at the 2009 level, the massive increase in CO2-free power generation would have made the grid 80% clean.

Wow.

That's incredible.

It's nuts.

But wait a minute.

It sounds like they might be using a little more energy than they were.

Yeah.

The problem, of course, was that electricity demand doubled and

clean power generation didn't keep up.

So the difference was delivered from coal and overall CO2 emissions went up by 90%.

But it's a huge win.

A huge win.

There we go.

Thank you.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Aaron, Wisconsin, welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Yes, sir.

How are you, sir?

Pretty good.

Good.

Pretty good.

I'd like to say that the whole climate thing is getting out of hand.

History still matters.

And 2012 is is a mirror image of 2023.

The Midwest has had a drought, storms on the East Coast, same as

2012.

So what are you saying there?

I mean, you're saying that it's a cycle?

Is that what I'm hearing you say?

Well, we've been farming since 1952 here, and

everything is ran in a cycle, and we keep very good records of the weather.

And it's an 11- to 12-year year cycle.

According to you, a farmer, do you work at Stripe?

I know.

I'm just a stupid farmer in Wisconsin.

Right.

Okay.

How many payments have you processed today?

Right.

Have you been?

Have you been to Berkeley?

No.

No.

Yeah.

Like, we're going to listen to a farmer about the weather.

Thank you so much, Aaron.

I appreciate it.

God bless you.

And thank you for farming.

Oh,

you know the easiest way to become a millionaire at farming?

First step, you start with a million dollars

and then it doesn't go up from there.

Okay.

It just

downfalls.

Then you quit farming.

But you have a million dollars.

Wow.

Yeah.

Let me talk to you about fashion geniuses.

That was not an American giant hoodie Federman was wearing in that clip, was it?

Of course not.

No.

You think you'd make something made in America?

Yeah, no, it's true.

No, no, probably not.

No, of course not.

American made, there's a reason why that term carries so much weight.

It used to mean that it was quality, that it was made right.

We haven't made clothing here in America in a very long time.

We have to retrain all these new people to actually make good American clothing.

And we do with American Giant, American-giant.com Glenn.

They've got all kinds of clothing for really everybody,

but their hoodies are the first thing they started with, and they are amazing.

And it is, I don't know if you can relate to this, but I've looked for a long time.

I thought Champion, I thought it was just me.

I was like, I thought Champion made these.

That's not the way I remember them.

No, they don't make them like this anymore.

Only American Giant makes them the original American way.

The heavy zippers and they're just, they're fantastic.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

It is Monday.

Well, the U.S.

is finally getting around to helping those Americans who wish to leave Israel.

Apparently,

Joe Biden decided to, I guess, hire a cruise ship to get people who are left behind in Israel out.

So congratulations on that.

Also,

congratulations to Florida.

They got their first plane load in from Israel.

Ron DeSantis did amazing work.

And in case you haven't heard, Mercury One and our partners are

also flying Americans back in.

Thank you for being the audience that you are.

We'll have details on how you can help and everything else coming up in just a little while.

There's a lot to talk about and I want to hear from you today, 888-727-BECK.

Today is your day to have your voice heard.

All right, let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.

I don't know if you've noticed lately, but there's, you know, kind of a lot of bad stuff going around in the world today.

Between the wars going on abroad and the corruption going on here at the home front, not to mention the constant updraft of chaos at our southern border, things are pretty crazy.

It's why it's such a smart move to have at least some emergency food on hand.

Okay,

let me go to Maria.

Maria in Georgia.

Hello, Maria.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Hello, Glenn.

And I am so excited that you have started the first 40 days in Restoring Covenant.

I have waited for years for you to actually make that move.

And when Gettysburg got canceled due to COVID,

I was so disappointed.

Yeah, me too.

And I want you to know, I don't know if you realize this or not, but you made that announcement on the sixth day of the Feast of Tabernacles this year.

And if you count forward, if you're actually going to hold the ceremony, and I know you're going to do that on air,

if you actually count forward from that first day, because you said this is the first day, and you had a 40 that you've got the 40-day walk,

then it falls as, because I asked my husband to do this because I was so excited I was doing other things.

And he came up with November the 13th, which it may not mean anything to you, but it would to the Native American Indians who studied the calendar.

It falls on a new moon day.

So

if you're actually holding it on that day, new moon is a renewal period.

And that's what I believe you're doing: you're renewing

the covenant with the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in this nation.

So tell me what you remarkable.

A lot of, thank you for that information.

We're going to look into it.

Tell me your

take

on what the covenant is.

What do you know it to be?

Well, the covenant is spelled out in Scripture,

and it is primarily the book of Deuteronomy.

I mean, Moses took it and simplified it, right?

But what happens is we as Christians,

we have confused the fact that there are two covenants in Scripture.

We have mixed the Levitical priesthood law,

which was a walk of a type of punishment for breaking the covenant

with God.

And so therefore he instituted like this punishment or this kindergarten schooling walk with the Levitical priesthood, which was put away when Christ, you know, sacrifice was sacrificed on the cross, right?

But once he was sacrificed and resurrected, then we return to the Melchizedek priesthood, which is

the covenant with our God.

And it is the covenant of liberty.

It's what, when Moses said, go now and proclaim liberty, which, by the way, is why our liberty bell

cracked, is because we broke

some of the things that we were supposed to be doing.

We did not do it.

So the Liberty Bell is a witness, and it has broken, cracked before us, trying to tell us in symbolism simplism that we have broken covenant with our God, right?

Maria,

you are spot on.

I am so thrilled that you are paying attention to this.

And

we are going to renew the covenant.

We're on, is it week two or week three, I think.

And you can find all of the information at glennbeck.com right now if you'd like to prepare.

I'm starting something in addition to that coming on November 1st to get us ready, which will really take you through, this is an American covenant.

And this is something that our pilgrims did, then George Washington did at the inauguration.

And the last real significant, the last time we really did it was with Abraham Lincoln.

And I have I've gotten the Abraham Lincoln covenant that was passed in both houses of Congress and then signed by Lincoln.

I have tried to get it to Congress several times, and there are a couple of people that will take it, but they both have said,

no,

Glenn, this won't go anywhere, nowhere.

There's no way we can even get this taken to the floor at this point.

And it's exactly the wording of Abraham Lincoln's covenant.

It's incredible how far we have fallen.

But thank you so much.

If you'd like more information, go to Glennbeck.com and make sure you join us.

It'll be the week before Thanksgiving that we'll do it here on the air.

Heather, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Hi, Glenn.

Thanks for taking my call.

You bet.

I'm a huge fan, and I'm so grateful for both you and Sue.

And I know that Sue has young kids, and I was hoping you guys could speak a little bit of hope into the young families that listen to you guys.

I have a one-year-old, and the world just looks so bleak, and I'm so nervous for him.

And with AI, and everything is changing, and so I'm just wondering if you could speak some hope into the young family.

Well,

you know, I heard a call the wrong show, lady.

Sorry.

No, I heard a honestly, I heard a very wise guy say that he was talking to

his son, and he's like me, a real pessimist.

And he said that his son came up to him and said,

you know, dad, I know what I'm going to do in my life.

And he said, doesn't matter.

Anyway, no,

here's the thing.

The future is what we make of it.

And I am so disappointed when I hear from people who

in myself, I'm disappointed in me that maybe I have preached so much doom and gloom that people don't want to have kids and they're worried about having kids.

Have kids.

Oh, yeah.

Have kids.

It is, I wish, and you knew me back when,

I didn't want any kids.

And then I had two.

And then I got married to Tanya and she was like, let's have kids.

And I'm like, no, let's not have kids.

I wish I had, and I mean this sincerely, I wish I had at least eight kids.

I really do.

Yeah.

Because in the end, that's all that matters.

And it took me too long to get that.

I just, the greatest thing of my life, or my children,

because they can fetch really high prices and they are working now and they'll be paying for my bills when I'm old and gray.

And it's great.

You should have at least eight because it's going to, with inflation, it's going to cost a lot.

No,

there's just nothing better than that.

Now, here's, here's for your, so you have hope, Heather.

You're going going to see miracles in our day.

Your, is it a son or daughter?

Son.

Son.

Your son is going to see and probably participate in like Moses style miracles in your life and in his life.

We are entering a new era that

is unlike anything we've ever seen.

And if man doesn't destroy himself,

you're going to see things that nobody's ever seen.

And before man destroys himself,

God will show up and perform his miracles that only the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob could do.

I believe we are all born for a reason.

I believe there are many souls still yet to be born that need to be here.

And they'll come in their appointed time, just like you came in your appointed time.

Teach your children to be strong.

Teach your children to recognize truth and teach your children that they have been selected for an important work at a very important time.

It's going to be exciting.

It's just not going to be what we're used to.

Does that help?

It does.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Okay.

Yeah.

I'll also add to, you know,

first of all, it's, it makes your life so much better, right?

I mean, you know, my son had a little bit of a health scare this weekend, and it was kind of scary for a little bit.

He's, he's okay.

But you realize in those moments, like, how important this stuff is to you.

Like, it's all I thought about all weekend.

And

long term, too, especially if you're a person of faith, like

you know how this comes out at the end, right?

Like, you have to, you might not see the path to a wonderful future.

But at the end, if you believe in these things and these eternal concepts that are the real basis as to why you're here, less about, you know,

screaming at the TV screen as the Eagles blow a game to the Jets and more about eternal concepts.

You kind of get to a point where

you're going to understand that you're part of a larger process.

And, you know, the end of that process is really positive.

There's tough times built in.

You don't understand how you're going to, AI is a great one.

We don't know how that's going to turn out.

I have friends who are super optimistic about how that's going to be.

And I have stupid friends too.

You know, but you're right.

And what I don't, you know, what

always seems, it's absolutely true.

And I feel bad when

I hear it and I'm like, ah, geez.

What you just said, and this is not necessarily what you mean.

You know, I know how it works out.

Yeah, I know how the book ends, but I don't want to, I mean, really, the process is the process is a meat grinder.

But I would say,

yes, that's true.

If that's, if that's what's coming, if the, if Jesus is coming, great, great, come, please, faster.

Can we cut that seven-year thing down a bit?

Come.

It would be great.

However, people have thought that forever.

I happen to believe that he is coming in our lifetime.

But, you know, everybody has thought that.

Even the apostles have thought that, and they were wrong.

However, think about it in your own life.

Think about all of the times in your own life where it looked like this is over.

I mean, I am not going to be able to make it.

This is, my wife and I aren't going to make it, or, you know, my business isn't going to make it, or I don't know how I go on.

One of my kids said the other day,

I don't think I can make it, Dad.

I just don't think I can make it.

How do I go on?

I just don't know how to make it.

And

because

after having

two wives and three daughters,

I've learned shut up and just listen.

So I didn't say anything, but

what I wanted to say was, and I did eventually,

you don't, you don't, you don't, you're looking too, too close at it.

You got to back up.

You got to back up.

You're going to make it.

And you're going to look back at this time as one of the greatest times in your life because you were pushed pushed and you had to grow.

And when we're growing,

it's always look back.

When you're in it, it sucks.

It sucks.

But at the end,

and not the end of your life, not the end when Jesus comes, but when you pass this phase,

you realize

I won't ever want to do that again.

But

I did learn a lot.

And

it was kind of nice to look back at it now and go, I can't believe we made it through that.

And that's just, that's all we're doing.

It's just another one of those life cycles.

It just happens to be the life cycle of countries and civilizations.

But we make it.

We make it through.

And if we have each other, we're going to be great.

We're going to be great.

All right, back in just a second.

If you've ever noticed that when you're in pain, it's awfully hard to concentrate on doing just just about anything.

It's practically impossible to enjoy whatever you're doing.

Pain is a monster that constantly eats at you, eats after you.

I know this because I've had that monster in my life.

I used to have that monster in my life.

I got my life back with Relief Factor.

I would recommend that you just try this.

I didn't think it would work for me because it works on inflammation.

And I always thought ibuprofen was a scam because it never worked for me.

However, this reduces inflammation, but it attacks it unlike ibuprofen.

It attacks it from four different ways.

So, ibuprofen uses one path.

If it doesn't work for you, it's not going to work.

Like me, this one attacks it from four different directions.

And I don't know which direction it works from, but it works for me.

Please try Relief Factor.

Mark in Rhode Island.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Glenn, good morning.

Thank you for taking my call.

Thank you.

I'm calling

because I want to thank you and begrudgingly stew also.

Thank you for that.

It's for the incredible education that you have provided to me and to your audience over the years.

And I'm going to just explain what I mean by that.

I had an amazing weekend.

A customer of mine invited me to a Catholic Women in Action conference down in Alexandria, Virginia.

Are you identifying as a woman?

Just want to check.

Just want to check.

check.

Go ahead.

No.

But

I went.

I attended the conference, met many people of very strong faith, and it was very motivating to me, very moving.

Good for you.

Afterwards, I had the honor of having dinner with my customer, her husband, her brother, and sister-in-law.

And

to set this up,

these are two government regulator attorneys, a successful businessman and his wife.

And we sat down at the dinner table and the subject of Israel and the turmoil in the Middle East came up and Ukraine.

And I mentioned the name Alexander Dugan.

And they all looked at me.

None of them have heard of Alexander Dugan.

And so I explained who he was, the significance of his book, and the uncanny and impossible coincidences from it, which are events that are occurring in the world right now.

Wow.

From there, the conversation evolved.

They were stunned.

And when I told them that, in fact, I am not...

I'm not a person that reads a lot.

I just don't have time.

I'm a small business owner.

I know.

I have to say that most of my education comes from you and listening to your program, Glenn.

And

you've done an incredible job of keeping me and your audience up to date with so many critical issues that are happening in the world.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Please check the homework

because

I'm a small businessman myself, and we work really hard and we do everything we can to get it right.

But I don't ever want you just to blindly trust me.

Please do your own

homework on that.

Mark, I'm thrilled.

Thank you.

And thank you so much for listening.

What's the takeaway from your friends with the Dugan information?

Well,

they all looked up who he was and his book on their iPhones before they left the table.

You know, and we mentioned many other subjects during our conversation and our meal, including the World Economics Forum.

Wow.

You know, these were issues that they had never heard of.

And I guess my takeaway from this is this was a group of people with very strong faith in God, in Jesus.

And

they were highly motivated to spend their time, to take the time to show their faith in God and our Lord.

That's fantastic.

On the other hand, they have not taken the the same time to

invest in keeping themselves up to date or to find out what's really going on in the world.

I will tell you, Mark, the thing we have to do, pay attention to our first citizenship.

And then when we have that, pay attention to our second citizenship.

Because we are in the place where we may lose our first

to save our second if we're not careful.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

Today's the day for your voice to be heard, 888-727-BECK.

Hello, Cody in Virginia.

Good morning, sir.

How are you?

Good, sir.

How are you?

Great.

Longtime listener, first time caller,

I would just like to say thanks to you and your whole crew for putting the truth out there about a whole lot of things.

I've been watching the world crumble for a long time now, and my life's been crumbling.

And,

you know, I'd just like to give a message to the world

to just take care of each other.

Try to give the support that you need and that the people need.

And, you know, it's people like you.

I really just want to say thank you for everything that you do.

And I watch you every day of the week that I can.

And yeah.

Thanks, Cody.

What's been going on in your life that you've been struggling with?

I've been battling addiction for a long time.

I quit drinking 13 weeks ago.

Good for you.

And I'm working on quitting smoking cigarettes and weed and stuff.

And I'm just trying to get my life back on track.

And I'm just having to lay everything out on the table and take inventory of myself and everything that's going on.

And it's a lot.

It sucks, doesn't it?

Well,

it's a lot, man.

Yeah.

But I've had some absolutely amazing people come into my life and really help me out.

And I'd just like to say thank you to them as well.

Yeah.

Let me tell you, Cody, as somebody who has done this before,

do it right.

Be thorough.

And it's hard.

It sucks.

And you're just, I mean, you just get it.

Sometimes.

You'll just get beaten down by it.

Don't.

Just remember, it is worth it.

It is so worth it.

Your life is going to become so much better when you get rid of all of that garbage.

And it is, it's hard.

And I don't mean just the garbage of drinking or smoking or whatever.

I mean getting rid of the things that were pushing you in that direction.

Face them head on.

It's scary, I know, but you're going to discover some great things about you.

You're so right.

And it's literally transpired into my life to where trash is actually piling up.

And, you know, basic chores and just functioning as a productive member of society has just,

I don't know, it's become like I've been mentally disabled and, you know,

just trying to get on track before it's too late, you know, because I don't want to lose everything that I have.

I've worked hard.

I've worked hard for what I have.

Good for you, Cody.

And I'm thankful for everything.

And thank you.

You bet.

Make sure you reach out.

I want to hear from you a year from now.

I want to hear how your life is going.

Yes, sir.

I will.

Thank you.

God bless.

I have to tell you, that is, you know, what's really scary is most people, because I was this way.

You hang on to the things that you think you are.

You hang on to

your struggles and your problems and the blame that you have given yourself or others have given you or you've put on somebody else.

Because

it's a defense mechanism that happens.

And when you start to really

recover and you have to take that inventory of yourself and deal with all the things, and then hopefully that leads to dealing with all the things you think you know, you thought you knew was true.

And it's scary when you take all of that stuff out because you feel like, at least I did, I felt like maybe there's not anybody in there.

Maybe this is as good as it gets.

I don't, I mean,

I've been hiding all of this because I don't think there's anything good in me.

And that is a frightening, terrifying feeling.

And I will tell you, I felt that way for a long time.

And it stopped me from really going, because you'd hang on to things.

You'd be like, no, I want to hang on to this one.

Because it gave you an excuse.

But when you get rid of all of that stuff, you begin to discover things about yourself that you didn't know that are really really good really good uh let me go to uh matt in south carolina hi matt

yeah hey glenn um uh i got a serious question for you but i also have kind of a funny statement uh my last name is uh franzies and uh when you had michael franzies on uh you were pronouncing his last name wrong and i don't know if you realize that but i always do

i always

i always do

it was funny.

We're not related.

My family's not related, but it's a mob guy

and you're saying his name wrong.

Well, thank you for that.

It would be terrifying if the mob existed, which it doesn't.

It does.

It does not.

If it did, I'd be a big fan.

A big fan of the mob if it existed, but it doesn't exist.

We know that.

Go ahead.

So anyway, I got my brother listed in upstate New York, too.

He's up in Corning.

But my serious question is,

I live in South Carolina.

we've been seeing all these things, my friends and hearing all this stuff on the Internet and things about these the southern border and these middle aged men or military age men coming across.

And I'm hearing and seeing stories and things about them being put up in cities around America at the Roosevelt Hotel.

A lot of them have these UN cards that have money on them.

It's just I just want to see what your take is on that and see what i is there anybody looking into local police forces, hopefully, in these cities

you know like are they is anyone paying attention to these i mean they're just gathering and yeah

are there people uh paying attention to that yeah people like you people like me people who are paying attention and are concerned uh are there police that are looking into it i don't know if they're looking into it but i'm sure they're aware of it in the cities where they're allowed to be aware of things like that um and every every american every city should be concerned.

We've talked about it for a long time, that the UN is helping on the other side of the border, process people, getting them ready so they can come in and just have easy access to America.

You have NGOs, some of them funded by people like Soros,

that are doing the same thing, helping, moving people, you know, doing caravans, all of these things.

And their goal is

not a stronger America.

There was a,

let me see here, where is it?

Here, here's a, listen to this one.

Here's a Biden spokesperson, John Kirby, just this weekend.

Listen to this, cut 10.

Let me ask you about the southern border because obviously the chaos there, the openness, you can argue about that, but I mean, record numbers of people showing up there, record numbers of people who are either on a terror list or associated with somebody who is a family member, an associate.

We're at record numbers for those.

How worried are you, as somebody who is, your job is national security, that we have an issue there with somebody who would be a bad actor, a copycat, or a terrorist cell?

We're concerned about the potential spillover from the war against Homas in terms of domestic security.

That's why days ago, I mean within a day or two of the attacks, the president ordered the team, the national security team and the Department of Homeland Security to work with state and local authorities to make sure that we have the Intel picture in place to be able to identify and potentially disrupt any domestic terror threat as a result of what's going on against Hamas.

And I will tell you that even as we were speaking here this morning, we simply don't have any specific credible threat to speak to, but that doesn't mean we're not looking very, very hard.

Stop it.

Really, sincerely, stop it.

So even just a few days ago, we reached out to local authorities.

Make sure you have information on all those people that are coming in.

You just, you make sure you...

Really?

You mean the what is it now

how many millions have come across the border how many millions have we just lost

you know there was a report out this week I'll find it during the break there's a report out this last weekend about the number of people that came in from Iran

that we caught just this week Iran coming across the border that's a that's a long walk from Iran a really long walk what Why were they coming over?

Because I'll bet you, if you're a persecuted person in Iran and you get out, you could show up at our embassy someplace, and I'll bet you you could be fast-tracked.

Why are they coming across the border?

And this has been happening now for two and a half years.

So I appreciate what you've done, John, in the last couple of days after the attack.

But I think Americans would like to know, you know,

who's here.

And maybe you should solve that by first closing and securing the border.

Are you with me on this, Glenn?

Over the past week or two,

John Kirby's starting to rise to the level of annoyance of like a KJP for me.

Like he's starting to get to that like upper echelon hall of fame level of just, I can't stand hearing a word out of his mouth because he's so annoying about everything.

He's at, he's rising to that level for me.

He's, to me,

he is becoming Baghdad Bob.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know what I mean?

If you're old enough to remember who Baghdad Bob was.

Was that the first

war or the second?

That was the 2003.

Okay, 2003.

And he was a guy who was like, look, there's caves, terror.

What?

Oh, no.

Saddam Hussein.

He's a great guy.

Rape his two sons?

What?

Oh, but it was also like the tanks are, we have

video footage of tanks 10 miles outside of Baghdad.

And he's like, they're not even in the country.

We've already defeated them.

Like, it was that type of denial.

So bad.

Which is hilarious.

And also very reminiscent of what we're hearing now from people in the Middle East who are basically claiming none of these atrocities occurred.

Right.

And hearing in other areas here in the United States from our own people.

What?

The border's secure.

What?

There's nobody coming.

What?

That's crazy talk.

What?

That's a conspiracy there.

ES, what?

It's Baghdad Bob.

We are at the point where I never thought America would be.

And the one responsible for that is the one that is currently killing themselves.

And that is the mainstream media.

You own guns for several reasons.

I mean, it might be for hunting or, you know, fishing.

Sure, sure.

Target shooting for fun?

Yes.

I mean, yes, I fish with guns, and that's why I've lost all of my guns in that horrible boating accident.

But anyway, you keep yourself safe, keep your family safe, and that's not going to happen unless you're actually skilled and comfortable with a gun in your hand and you're a proficient shot.

Right now, ammunition is a fortune.

There is a high-tech, easy-to-use system that is used widely and widely by the military.

Started with the Marines.

Now it's all across the military.

And it is like having your drill sergeant, your shooting instructor standing right next to you the whole time and actually seeing and being able to show you what you're doing wrong.

You connect it through Bluetooth, you put it on the barrel of your gun, whether you're dry firing or active at a range.

It will show you how you're aiming, how you're drifting, if you're pulling the gun down or to the left or whatever, and it shows you how to correct it in real time.

So start improving today.

Glen Beck.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

It is Monday.

We're taking your phone calls today.

I have an update on what the house is doing as well.

James, Pennsylvania, welcome.

Yes, hello.

Hi, Glenn.

I was just calling to thank you for the Mercury One event this weekend.

It was truly amazing.

Thank you to you and your team,

JP, Suzanne, Tripp, and everyone else that works there.

It was a truly inspiring event.

And, you know, there's millions of us out here who are behind you, praying for you, lifting you up.

You're doing the heavy lifting, but we're right behind you.

Thank you.

Thank you for that, James.

I'm glad you came.

We did have the Mercury One

gala where we raise funds and we do it every fall.

So that way I can say 100% of the proceeds go to, you know,

downrange, wherever it is, whether it's Hawaii or Florida or a disaster in Turkey or now the planes that we are sending over

to help Americans return home.

You know,

we're flying people from Israel.

In case you you haven't heard, we announced it Friday afternoon.

But we're doing this for the second time now.

I can't believe we have to do this, but we're doing it for the second time, getting Americans out.

And luckily, the president has figured out a way to commode a cruise ship, I guess.

So Americans are getting onto cruise ships thanks to the U.S.

government.

Maybe that's the best, fastest way they could give them COVID, I guess, maybe.

But,

you know, Ron DeSantis in Florida is also doing it.

And so the load is not going to, you know, bear down on the shoulders of our audience.

But thank you for the ability to be able to do these things.

Thank you for that.

If you would like to be involved in any of our projects, you can go to mercury1.org and find out what we're doing for Israel and everything else and join us, mercury1.org.

So Jim Jordan is now politicking, trying to make sure that people vote for him tomorrow in the House.

I'm not sure of the names that claim to be Republicans that apparently, you know,

want the Democrats to, you know, share the gavel or whatever they're thinking.

But Jim Jordan would be your smart move here, gang, over sharing the power with the Democrats.

I think that would be,

a real bad death knell for your candidacy and your returning to Congress.

Do you think there's any chance he wins?

Jim, yeah, I do.

I hope.

Give me your percentage.

You got a percentage on that?

Okay.

I'm an optimistic catastrophe.

So I say the Republicans are going to get it.

They're going to know this is your last shot.

What are you doing?

He's a good guy.

He's solid.

This would be a, this would be not only good, but an improvement.

It would be an improvement.

It would be really, really good.

Things would continue.

And so I say that, you know, there's a 75% chance that he gets it.

Now, because I'm also a catastrophe, I realize we're talking about the stupid Republican Party.

So I think there's about a 2% chance of it happening.

Ah, okay.

So you're in between 2 and 75.

Wow.

Yeah.

I'm closer closer to the two.

Are you?

I'm closer.

I like Jim Jordan.

I think it'd be a big improvement.

It would be unbelievable.

I don't see how there's any way they get him through that conference.

I mean, they had a guy who announced

their plan.

They had a guy who announced he was going to be in the race for speaker who announced like 10 minutes before the actual vote and told everyone he didn't actually want to be speaker and he still had 60 votes.

Like,

there's just people who don't like Jordan.

And the problem is, there's nobody in this conference that is going to get them over this line line that I can think of of 27.

Yeah,

believe me, it's coming closer to reality.

It is coming.

There are Republicans actually talking about it.

For a limited time at McDonald's, get a Big Mac extra-value meal for $8.

That means two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun, and medium fries, and a drink.

We may need to change that jingle.

Prices and participation may vary.

You got to

compromise.

We got to stand together if the corners alive.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

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

You know,

we gotta stand together if the corners of life.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to Monday.

Well, we have Hakeem Jeffries coming out.

He is, of course, the leader of the House

Democrats.

He has said, Jim Jordan,

if the Republicans pick him, it's a triple down on extremism.

Really?

Hakeem, is that what that is?

You need to call your House member today because there are stories out now that the Republicans are actually talking about brokering a deal with the Democrats.

to find maybe a very conservative Democrat or a very liberal Republican that the Democrats can vote for.

Are you kidding me?

Really?

I mean, if this happens,

I mean, how could you possibly ever vote for a Republican again?

Honestly, the Freedom Caucus and everybody else should just leave the rotting carcass behind.

Well, we'll find out.

what happens.

Call your congressman today.

They're in caucus today.

The vote is tomorrow.

Jim Jordan, I don't know.

He's pretty darn extreme.

He wants to hold people accountable and not spend so much.

I know.

I know.

That's crazy, isn't it?

More in just a second.

First, we Americans are hard-working people.

We're also a money-spending people.

And unfortunately, now is a time when spending a lot of money maybe isn't the best choice.

Bills have to be paid.

And if you've got something like credit card debt, it's bleeding you dry pretty fast, most likely at 20, 20-25% interest rates.

The government is not on your side.

The banking industry is out of control.

Here's what you need to do: if you have a mortgage and your back is up against the wall, I want you to consider going and calling the people at American Financing, the people they're helping get that huge credit card debt off of their books and you know, pay for it at 7%, not 25%.

And if you roll it into your mortgage, it's all tax-deductible.

That stretches your savings, and they're already saving people about $700 every single month.

Talk with one of their salary-based mortgage consultants now, American Financing 800-906-2440.

They're waiting for your call now: 800-906-2440, or check them out online at AmericanFinancing.net.

Well, hello, Stu.

Hi, Glenn.

Welcome.

Thank you.

Thank you for welcoming me.

You're for the program.

You're welcome.

I didn't really want to

talk to you or even look at you for the first two hours.

Okay, huh?

But

better interaction than I get from most people.

Yeah, I kind of went numb inside.

Let me go to Jason.

Hello, Jason.

You're on the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, Mr.

Beck.

I'm a lifetime listener.

Don't have a chance to call in very often, but I am going to be coming to your event, Keeping the Covenants here in Salt Lake City, Utah.

And I happen to have some extra tickets that I got for the purpose of hoping to get one of your radio listeners that is from the state of Utah that would like to come and see the event.

I'd like to give away.

I tell you, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I tell you what, because we can't do that.

But put them on hold.

Tell them to get in touch with Rod Arquette at KNRS, and maybe Rod can give them away.

I'm there on Thursday,

I think and you can go to

I don't know what is that event thing?

Yeah event bright and just search for Glenn back and get your tickets.

All right let me go to Josh.

Hello Josh welcome.

Hi Glenn for taking my call.

Thank you.

Been listening to you for about 22 years since the day I got clean and sober.

Wow.

I traveled on the road to, I live in northern Maine.

I traveled daily to the methadone clinic

for quite a few years and found you on the radio, and you've been quite an inspiration.

Wow.

And

you were listening to the, and you didn't need methadone eventually, even though you listened to this program.

That's right.

Wow.

Wow.

That must have been a hard journey.

It was.

It was.

And it's, you know, there's been

good and bad,

just like everyone, I guess.

Yeah.

The reason I've been trying to speak with you for the past couple years is

in December of 2022, I lost my best friend and business partner to suicide.

Six months later, we lost my 18-year-old nephew to suicide.

Excuse me.

Through all of this, we've started a group called Stay for

Um we're trying to raise awareness for men's mental health and suicide prevention.

Uh it's just become a crisis in our country right now.

Uh there's so little hope for people.

What is your uh what is your organization's name?

Stay for Life.

F-O-R or the number.

F-O-R.

Okay.

And is it dot org?

Dot org, yes.

Okay.

I'm going to look into it.

I tell you, there is, I mean, you want to talk about nobody paying attention to suicide.

Men's suicide.

I mean, it's like saying, white men's suicide.

Let's care about it.

Nobody doesn't care about that.

But

I'll tell you, you know, our suicide rate in this country has gone up 25% in the last 10 or 12 years.

25%.

In anything else, if we had heart disease go up by 25%,

we had, you know,

blindness, cancer, anything going up by 25%,

everyone would be saying it's an epidemic.

And what's crazy is no one's saying it's an epidemic, except for those who are experiencing it, except for citizens.

Do you see

the, you know, American Medical Association, they'll come out all the time and tell us, you know, hey, you know what?

This gender-affirming stuff, it's great.

They're coming out with all kinds of stuff.

But I don't hear them coming out and saying this is an epidemic.

It is an epidemic.

And

I, Josh, I wish you all the luck in the world.

What does your organization do?

Well, we're in the infancy stages.

It's my wife, my sister,

her husband, and myself.

Our biggest

program right now that we're trying to get off the ground is a

men's peer support group.

Just a place where guys can get together and talk about what's going on.

I mean,

people can't even get into counseling.

It's 19 months sometimes to get into a counselor.

That's crazy.

Even when people do want to talk and try to get better.

Josh.

Keep following your heart and your spirit on this.

And

don't give up.

Don't give up.

There's so many good things that are worth living for.

And even the hard things,

if we will look at these times

as

we will see in our day, we will watch, and maybe it's you, maybe it's somebody else, we will watch the icons of tomorrow emerge

because they only really emerge in strife.

Otherwise, we're all eating donuts.

And well, okay, I'm eating donuts.

But

when there's real strife, that's when heroes appear.

And they're not heroes, you know,

they don't, they're probably people just like you

who don't want to do the things they do.

They just reach a limit and they're like, okay, I can't do that anymore.

I can't do it.

I can't, whatever it is in life.

And,

and, Josh, possibly that is, is you, an icon of the future.

Um,

if you are struggling with something, uh, especially suicide, I know I've been there, I've

I've had multiple family members struggle and some of them fail in their struggle.

So I know exactly what it is, but I'm telling you right now, life is worth it.

It really is.

And as somebody who has been there, I had a bridge abutment with my name on it.

I lived in Louisville, Kentucky, and there was an overpass.

I mean, I can see it.

And every day I drove by that to and from work.

And I actually, in a sick sort of way, prayed that I would have the strength to drive into that bridge abutment.

Thank God I didn't.

Thank God I didn't.

Life's worth it.

Go ahead, King.

I know.

The amount of restraint I am having in this moment is incredible.

Like, I should be given an award for what just happened.

I want a festival set up in

my honor right now.

See, I say,

icons appear.

That was a really tough moment for him not to make a comment about,

can we get that bridge abutments on the phone?

How can I introduce you to that?

Yeah, I know.

I know.

I'm going to put up a plaque to the thing,

but I'm not.

I'm not going to.

That's not the spirit of the moment.

It wasn't.

So I held back,

and I deserve a medal.

Right.

Okay.

Boy, we'll give them out for anything now, won't we?

If you're

if you care about your dog, and I know you do, you want the best for your animal.

You want the best for your dog or, you know, male, female, it doesn't matter.

Even those transgender dogs that are like,

don't call me

him anymore.

Okay, I'm a they.

Yeah, they got to eat too.

They got to eat.

Kibble food is not cutting it it is meant to last on the store shelves for like two years

and so they they cook it and they cook everything out of it imagine if you were living on stuff that could be on the shelf for two years okay

not not not good you'd be eating mcdonald's and twinkies and things like that That's really not healthy.

And it's not healthy for your dog.

That's why you have to put the vitamins and the minerals and the probiotics, all the things that are so good for your dog back into those kibble food meals.

Rough Greens can help you do that, and your dog's going to love it.

In fact, they want to send you the first trial bag for free just to make sure your dog loves it.

Get that first trial bag for free.

You just pay for shipping at roughgreens, r-u-f-f-greens.com/slash back.

That's roughgreens.com/slash back.

Or you can call them at 833-GLEN33.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Tony in Florida.

Hello, Tony.

Hi, Glenn.

Hi, Stu.

Thanks for having me this morning.

Sure.

I'm happy to see you.

I'm happy to see you both carrying the torch and keeping the forging the path for all of us.

I wanted a call this morning about what I call the Abortion Accountability Act.

It ties into the plan that you have that would counsel mothers, show them the sonogram, try to do parental counseling, offer adoption.

And if the woman would still choose to have an abortion after all of that, I think that they should also be held accountable.

So I'm proposing that we get a bill going that after the first abortion, there would be a five-year mandatory birth control that would give the woman time for her life to maybe go into a different direction.

It would give her a little bit of time to be ready to be pregnant again.

And then after the five years when the birth control comes out, if they come back again for a second abortion, after the counseling, after the sonogram, after the adoption, you know, after all of the measures have been taken to try to help them birth the baby, if they choose to do the abortion the second time, I'm proposing that we

give them a tubal logotomy and that they would lose their

ability to have babies.

There we have young women that are filming themselves in abortion clinics, glorifying abortion, talking about this is my 12th abortion, and as soon as I get out of here, I'm going to have another one.

And we really have to trim these numbers of murder down while we're talking about murdering people, people dying across the country, people dying from suicide.

I just want us to keep focused on these babies.

And I think that this, and I'm not talking about the, what, 2% to 3% of people who have been raped or people who have incest.

There are these

minor factors that can come into play that we would have to take an accountability for as well.

You're talking about the serial killing.

You're talking about the serial killing of children.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yes.

I think that

we, you know what, you can't go to a grocery store and take a piece of gum without taking accountability for it.

You can't jaywalk without having accountability for it.

But yet we let senseless murders of our babies go on and on and on without.

any accountability whatsoever.

So I feel like that we need to put some kind of strict measures in place that would that would that would curb the number of abortions, I'm thinking by the tens of thousands per year in our country.

And maybe we can whittle this problem down to being non-existent.

So that's my idea, Glenn.

I'm curious to know what you have to say.

Gosh, Tony, it's Monday morning.

And I'm not prepared for that.

Look,

here's what I think.

I am initially extraordinarily adverse to tying tubes and things like that because

eugenics.

The government ordering

that business really

a bad thing.

However, I do appreciate the ideas that you have on

trying to find a way to stop the serial abortionists because they do exist.

However, in small numbers.

Yes.

Even the people who really heart abortion don't exactly look at it as a pleasurable process.

It's not a fun thing to do.

Right.

We looked this up at one point, and there's no verification of this, but the person who claims to hold the abortion record is like at 12 or 8.

Remember that?

And it was the record holder.

Yeah.

So

it is unusual, but I do understand

the

concept of that.

And we just,

there has to be a way to change people's minds.

And then

once minds and hearts are changed on this, then you can look at the outliers.

But we have a lot of people

before those outliers that we need to try to save.

Yeah.

And I mean, look, there is actually a bill called, I think it's the Abortion Accountability Act or Pro-Birth Accountability Act or something in Georgia, which is basically their name for a six-week ban.

Right.

And we know that that policy, because it's in place in several states, is already caught in the abortions by tens of thousands.

Now, look, I want it to be zero.

I want that number to be zero.

I am not

no real bending on the killing of children, frankly.

But, you know, unfortunately, we don't have that

magic wand.

We don't have that magic wand, and we don't have that consensus yet.

Short term, you take every gain that you can get, like what Texas has done, like what Florida has done, like what Georgia has done, and minimize the amount of abortions in your states.

And then long long term, the only way to win this is to, as you point out, Glenn, win the hearts and minds of people.

I mean, that sounds like so, like, I don't know, ethereal, but in reality, like, if a state reinstituted slavery right now, there would not be a big slavery business because people have turned completely on slavery.

No one wants

almost.

That would be like what we're talking about here on those who are the serial killers.

Yes.

You know what I mean?

There are some.

There are some.

There would be some you'd have to punish them.

And And you'd have to punish them.

That's why you don't make it legal, right?

Correct.

But generally speaking, there's no popular movement to have slavery returned.

Correct.

It's a really bad idea that everyone despises rightly some.

For the World Economic Forum, you keep going.

I mean, I'm coming up with more and more explicitly.

I'm making generalizations.

Probably

the Treasury Department.

Eventually, the long-term win is here for people to despise abortion and see it as we see it.

And when they do, and that will happen, I think someday, it will be viewed it, like slavery is today.

When that does happen, you know, you'll still have the laws in place.

You'll get rid of them.

But there won't be a desire for people to do the activity because everyone finds it as abhorrent as it is.

And yet you will still be left.

Like, for instance, we've been talking about this a lot today with Hamas.

You know,

we didn't go in and kill all of the Germans.

We killed the Nazis.

And with Hamas,

we don't have a vendetta to go kill kill all of the Palestinians, you know, because you just don't do that.

You kill those who are for killing others innocently.

And some innocents are going to be lost along the way.

That's war.

The reason why

we didn't put slavery in the Declaration of Independence, because it is in the first draft in Jefferson's own handwriting, is because two states disagreed.

And it was South Carolina and Georgia.

And they disagreed with it.

And our founders thought

it's not worth fighting a second revolution for.

We will just slowly phase this out now.

And they started doing that pretty quickly.

Quickly, immediately.

And they started fading it out.

But

when they died, that spirit just kind of went away.

We have to look at what is the alternative, and the alternative is to go to war or to become dictators.

And we don't want to do either one of those.

So we work extra hard on the heart because we are making progress.

We are making progress, big progress.

The Glenn Beck Program.

I want to tell you about a person named Christy.

In a world that often focuses on individual success and personal achievement, she's focused on making a difference in her personal life.

She's volunteered at nursing homes.

She serves food and clothing to homeless people with St.

Vincent Paul Organization, volunteers with a local Christian school for their Christmas Eve giving celebration.

She just won the Humanitarian of the Year Award through

the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors.

Reason why I bring her up is she's a great person.

And this is the kind of person that we look for.

First, we look for somebody who really has the spirit of kind of you and me,

what we like, the people we like to hang out with.

Then we make sure that somebody like Christy has the right experience and the right business practices to make sure that she's also a great business person with real estate that can actually get your home sold for the right amount of money and get you into the next home for the right amount of money.

This is the Glenbeck program.

We have Jeff in Arizona.

Hello, Jeff.

Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Hey, Glenn, thanks for taking my call.

I want to warn you, you thought Tony had a big question for you.

I got a big one.

Oh, my God.

They're going to have to fire up those brain cells here on Monday morning.

All right.

So

this addresses even the issue you were discussing earlier about the U.S.

bonds and the interest on the U.S.

bonds.

And this is a suggestion that would help save the U.S.

dollar from complete collapse and deal with our debt.

And that suggestion is this.

We simply stop paying the interest on that portion, a portion of the U.S.

debt, and that portion is the portion that's held by China.

Now, of course, that is the dropping of a nuclear bomb in a financial kind of war.

And there's a lot of discussion about financial war.

And also people might say, well, my gosh, you're going to destroy the U.S.

Treasury bonds and so on.

No, you give assurances to the rest of the world that we are going to pay the interest on all of their

debt held by all their sovereign nations.

And why do you do this?

And what's the justification?

We all remember in the late 80s and the late 1890s, financial war was waged against South Africa because of their apartheid regime.

We simply declare China a pariah state.

They are simply using slavery.

They have active slavery.

They use slavery in their economy.

They're an aggressive colonizer through force.

We've had hippies complaining for decades about what happened in Tibet.

They're doing that in Nepal.

They're trying to do in Nepal exactly what Russia is doing in Ukraine, just simply trying to take their land, claiming, oh, a bunch of these people are ethnic Chinese.

So, and one last thing to give you while you're preparing a response to that idea.

I've reviewed this idea with significant conservative economists, including Catherine Austin Fitz.

And Catherine Austin Fitz actually agrees.

So even if you think that's a great idea, I think you should discuss it with Carol at some point.

But it is a significant idea and just stop paying interest to China.

Okay.

Let me start here.

Again, cold start on this.

You said what they're doing in Nepal, just taking land.

Russia's doing that, right?

You said?

So they're doing the same thing as Russia.

Yeah, it's like an aggressive colonization where they just simply claim that they're not taking the land yet, but they're simply trying to claim that, oh, we got a bunch of ethnic Chinese here.

We have a right to control your country.

Right.

Which Russia is trying to do.

I'm just trying to find the boundary here, because this is what we did with SWIFT, and that is giving us a

BRICS organization that is going to challenge the dollar soon.

And they're

replacing the SWIFT, something that America thought could never be done, the SWIFT payment

system, which

does almost all the payments internationally, globally, all over the world.

At least it did.

Now it's going to be replaced in some nations because we took that away from Russia, and others immediately said, well, if they can do that there, what happens if they get up on the wrong side of the bed and they think that, you know, they can do it to us as well.

And they were all, many of them, not all of them, many of them were nations that we're not real positive about.

But if you say you're not going to pay the interest, a couple of things happen.

You've broken a contract.

When we got into, what new information do we have about China?

Slaves?

We knew that going in.

That to me,

if I were

somebody going to a bank and I said, you know what?

I just found out that you were, you know, holding the money and maybe involved with the Jeffrey Epstein thing, so I'm not paying my interest to you.

You know where I'd be?

Homeless.

That's where I would be.

And you can't just break these contracts.

You just cannot break a contract like that.

Now, if we're at war, then maybe we do that.

But this would be an act of war.

You're sort of making my argument for me, Glenn, because the truth of the matter is,

that's what those shots across the bow are with bricks.

These are shots across the bow of financial war.

And we have a dollar that is about to go to zero.

And if we don't do something, that's what's going to happen.

And there is a realistic

basis for what I've said.

Okay, hang on just a second.

Hang on just a second.

I don't want to get into an argument with you, but I do want to push back a bit.

The first thing, if you want to save the dollar, the first thing you do is clean your own house up first.

Before you say, I'm going to declare war on China, you would say, I'm going to declare war on maybe we

don't pay the salaries of everybody in Congress and in Washington because they're the ones that are tubing this, this and the Federal Reserve.

Why would I go outside of my own borders first first and cause a war with Russia when really I should clean out my own house first?

I agree with you on those points.

I do.

But, you know, China's coming after us.

So is the Federal Reserve.

Now, I agree.

This would be the dropping of a nuclear bomb in financial war.

This would be a full-on financial war against China.

Clearly.

But the question becomes: are we headed that way?

Oh, yes.

Yes, we are.

But I don't.

Look, they invade Taiwan, I would consider it.

They

get into war with us, I would absolutely do it.

However,

I don't really want to be the one that drops the nuclear bomb on China because I don't think the rest of the world would believe us.

And the fastest thing we can do is get everybody dumping our treasuries that they do hold.

Then our dollar is over immediately.

And China would convince half the world to do just that.

Thanks for your call, Jeff.

Seems too that we should be - there are differences in just not paying.

I mean, full faith in credit is a big deal, and it would really rock the world economy and ours really badly.

But taking steps toward the direction of being less economically tied to China is, I think, the right way to move.

I think we saw some of that in the Trump administration.

Yes, but you can't really do that

with the spending that we've had.

Even if Trump, you know, Trump is not a debt guy.

He doesn't, but he's not bothered by debt.

I am, but I buy into his theory to some degree.

And that is, look,

you cut your spending when you're at full earning power.

Well, we're not even at full earning power.

If we get rid of all of these things, we can create businesses.

We can pay these bills.

And he's right.

However, I'm not not comfortable because it seems that only happens when we have certain people in

and we just keep growing this debt.

The first things that you need to do is

stop the accumulation of debt.

I just don't,

you cannot clean out your, you cannot clean out somebody else's house.

It's like after, you know, in 2008, right before the crash, our financial heads of all of our banks went over and lectured lectured China on how you really need to run.

You know, look, we have all the credibility.

We know how to run, you know, the banking sector and loans and everything else.

And we crashed.

What an embarrassment.

They laughed at us when we were there because they saw what was coming.

Yeah, I will also say, if we're going to do this with China, which I think is the right thing to do, one important

thing not his policy.

Yeah.

I appreciate the sentiment.

Yes.

And if there's war, yes, maybe.

Maybe, yeah.

I mean, I don't know.

But moving away from

our

economic ties with China is something that we should be pursuing.

However, and this is something that, you know, we were talking about with the house race, you don't just do something,

right?

You do something with a plan for what's going to replace it.

And you better have a replacement for China because our entire way of life changes if we just cut them out completely right now.

Everything changes.

Might I suggest a replacement for China?

India.

India is a country that has much, some familiarity, some friendliness to Western values.

They at least, they loved us when Trump was in office.

I mean, they were like, I mean,

they loved us there.

You have a large population, a real manufacturing base.

We should be doing everything we can to encourage India to be moving the right way for Western values as much as we can control that with carrots.

And then also, you know, encouraging companies to do business with

countries like India that can actually give us a lot of the stuff that we're getting from China, but also in a way that makes a heck of a lot more sense.

And obviously, American manufacturing is another big part of this, increasing that and everything else, but you're never going to replace China with American manufacturing completely.

Some companies will be able to do it.

Certain products you can help on.

Certain things for defense purposes, you should bring in internally more often.

But when you're talking about wide-scale economic pursuits, you got a country that's got over a billion people and they don't hate America.

You know, like embracing them and helping them through their troubles is probably something we should be focusing on a little bit more.

Quickly, let me go to Diane in California.

Hi, Diane.

Good morning, Glenn.

Happy Monday.

Thank you.

I have a question without the, I don't know, without the normal argument that we always hear that, oh my God, we'll never win another election.

But why,

what is it going to take to get the majority of the Republican Party, the 80 million people who voted for Donald Trump, to leave this party and become independents?

Why hasn't Donald Trump become an independent?

We've allowed RFK to take over that aspect of the three-party system now.

It's another Democrat, regardless of

all the nice things he says that people think are great, which he isn't.

He's a Democrat.

What is it going to take to leave these rhinos and never-Trumpers and people that are feckless and refuse to fight for what we, the people, want.

Like, we want Jim Jordan.

Every poll says that, yet, they're fighting us.

What do we do to make that third party the strongest party of all three?

Well,

I'm going to say something really unpopular.

The last thing you do is start a third party three or four months or six months before this election.

Do not vote for RFK.

Do not.

He is not a constitutionalist.

He is a constitutionalist when he likes it.

When he thinks he can fool people who care about the constitutional.

Yeah, he is really a dangerous candidate.

So don't do anything this time.

But I will tell you, I think, you know, when you've got a four-year ramp up, Donald Trump

would have been smart, I think.

If you can get enough Democrats, or sorry, enough Republicans to leave,

but it can't be about a person.

It has to be about an idea.

It has to be bigger than the person involved.

Donald Trump doesn't need a third party.

He's winning by 40 points.

And again, remember, Trump supported aggressively McCarthy.

I understand that there's certainly differences between rhinos and Donald Trump, a lot of them.

But I mean, this was his pick.

He haranged people on the House floor to vote for McCarthy.

That was his pick.

And so now he's supporting Jordan.

I think Jordan would be an improvement over McCarthy.

Huge.

But Trump is, you know, huge.

First of all, Trump...

It's hard to do it with a third party, which is one of the reasons why people continually fail at it, even when they have really high polls.

And there's a reason why Trump goes to the Republican Party because that's where he can win and the structure is already built.

Correct.

But that was at a time in 2016 where we got to take over.

The Republicans, those McConnells and the dirty ones, they're never going to get out.

They're never going to get out.

They are going to continue to try to do everything they can for their little rhinoville.

I am one that would love to see the big, not before an election,

but the big

players in Washington, and I'd love it if you had a really, really conservative Republican, I mean, Democrat, but I can't find one.

But people that would say, I'm leaving.

I'm not playing this game anymore because I think the Republicans are so rotted from the inside, a lot of people would follow and get out.

And it needs to happen.

You've seen some of this happen.

I mean, people have gone, become independent, even if they're just voting for Republicans still.

Becoming an independent voter sends a message.

All right.

Back in just a second.

As Israel faces a surge in violence, the global market response has been swift and decisive.

Investors are making a rush for the doors of safe haven assets, hedging their bets against growing geopolitical turbulence.

The peel of assets like gold and U.S.

treasuries has strengthened.

The U.S.

stock futures experiencing a dip could get bad.

Gold is shining a little brighter right now.

When risks surge around the world, there's a domino effect.

And it's a flight away from things that

don't have real value and are tied directly to whatever's happening in the world.

Gold is just always there.

It's always been there.

And its price will fluctuate, but it goes up as things become more terrible and more unstable.

We're not immune to these things.

Silver lining in this gold line already offers a ray of stability as the world spins out of control.

Diversify your investments.

This week, Goldline has a golden opportunity.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Just looking at what's happening with the Speaker of the House, it's, I mean, Jim Jordan has got to get every single Republican on board, and that's going to be very difficult.

If you are living in a district with a weenie, wishy-washy Republican, you need to call them and very politely, without any threats, say, there's going to be consequences at the ballot box.

I and my group, we will do everything.

We will raise money against you.

We will campaign against you.

We will find your replacement.

And we we have a very long memory.

Vote for Jim Jordan.

Because if we don't, we're going to be forced into a compromise with the wishy-washy rhinos and the Democrats.

And the Democrats are just, they're salivating for this.

Again, I go back to,

you know, have a plan before you execute the guy who was at least stable.

This is going to get very bad for the Republicans and very bad for our our side if they don't vote for Jim Jordan.

Because you will, in effect, give the Democrats all that power back.

Congratulations.

So, call your congressman today.
