Should You Fear the ‘Day of Jihad’? | Guests: Bill O’Reilly & Justin Haskins | 10/13/23

loves a challenge.

It's why she lifts heavy weights

and likes complicated recipes.

But for booking her trip to Paris, Olivia chose the easy way with Expedia.

She bundled her flight with a hotel to save more.

Of course, she still climbed all 674 steps to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

You were made to take the easy route.

We were made to easily package your trip.

Expedia, made to travel.

Flight-inclusive packages are at all protected.

What can I say about rough greens that I haven't already said?

I don't think there's anything.

Now, what is wrong with you?

Why haven't you done this?

I can make this message go away.

If everybody in the audience just buys their rough greens for their dogs, then I won't have to do these ads anymore.

I'm like sick of hearing him talk about rough greens.

Then buy the stupid rough greens so I can shut up about it.

Wow.

Yeah.

Are you in the day of rage?

I'm in the day of rage.

What's wrong with you?

Buy it for your dog.

It's good.

Call right now, 833-G-L-E-N-N33.

I don't care if you even have a dog.

I really don't.

Please.

833-G-L-E-N-N33, roughgreens.com slash Beck.

Is it too much to ask?

No, definitely not.

Scoop it on your spaghettios if you need to.

Thank you.

Oh, good.

The show's about to start, and my organization requires my device to restart.

No!

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

You got to

make up.

It's a new day up, turned to rise.

You got to be up.

We gotta stand together, it's the corner survived.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Hello, America.

It's the day of rage.

What could we be angry about?

Let's do something crazy, shall we?

It's Friday.

We begin in 60 seconds.

Now, if you're living with pain in your life,

I'm not going to pretend that I know exactly what you're going through every moment of every day, but I'll tell you, I'm no stranger to waking up every day and going, ow,

ow, ow,

ow.

Seems strange to me, even now, all these years later, that I'm telling you about Relief Factor because I didn't think it was going to work for me.

I didn't take it.

We advertised it for a long time.

I never did because I didn't take it and I didn't think it would work.

You know, it's like like ibuprofen.

That's what I thought.

Ibuprofen doesn't work for me.

I don't know why.

Take some ibuprofen.

Shut up.

No, I'm gone.

No, I'm going to write you a prescription.

Oh, well, geez, I don't know.

Can I work or run a tractor on that?

So I didn't think it would work, but Relief Factor worked for me.

70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.

It attacks inflammation, which is the main source of our pain and a lot of our illness as well.

ReliefFactor.com, relief factor.com or call 800, the number 4 relief.

Relief Factor.

Feel the difference.

All right.

Stand up.

Stand up.

That is kind of the theme of today's program.

Stand up.

Here we are on the day of rage.

America.

And all those who are listening overseas that happen to believe

in eternal truths.

We stand at a precipice today.

We are lucky enough to live in a moment of history where the choice we make today

will echo not only throughout our life, but throughout generations yet unborn.

Not a lot of people live at a time like this.

but we have to recognize it.

There's a necessity now more than ever to choose.

I don't know if you remember the landmark speech, A Time of Choosing, from Ronald Reagan.

It came out in the early 1960s, but it is time to choose.

Our choosing today encompasses not only the fiscal sanity,

but a reclaiming of the moral and ethical standards that have seemingly just slipped through our collective fingers.

Our national debt surmounts now a staggering $33 trillion.

The Congress, Senate, entrapped by a seemingly unending cycle of spend and tax,

corruption, backroom dealing, place

on our children and our grandchildren the yoke of financial burdens that they didn't create.

The financial burden that we have ourselves, did you create it?

I don't even know what they're spending the money on.

The administrative state, the bloated, unaccountable people that we send continues to metastasize, infiltrating every aspect of our lives, crafting rules without our consent,

and exercising a power that rightfully and constitutionally belongs to you.

Furthermore, we are seeing now the erosion of timeless and foundational truths in our society, the very moral fiber that has held us together, held the quilt of our nation together.

An unsettling wave of attempts to nullify the fact that men are men, women are women, and only women can bear children.

These are not just societal norms, These are biological and spiritual truths.

They are linked to nature.

And yes, nature's God.

I meet people every day.

And they ask me the same question.

Almost everybody asks me the same question.

I don't know who to trust.

How do I know what stories are true?

How do I know what outlets I can trust?

I'm going to answer that for you.

And not in the blanket way that I usually have answered it in the past.

None of them.

Don't trust anybody.

Don't even trust me.

Do your own homework.

But I'm going to make it a lot easier, a lot easier.

I'm going to give you a way to actively know an intelligent way, an easy measuring stick, if you will, and apply it to every story and every every outlet, apply it to me.

If the news source, the influencer, the pastor, or even the family member refuses to recognize eternal truths, such as gender is specific, and nothing that man can say or do will change that.

Or forgiveness is free and personal and given to everyone.

The sin of the father is not the sin of the son.

The fact that all men and women and all peoples are created equal, but that doesn't mean you get an equal outcome.

Merit, what you do with your life, your mistakes, your weaknesses, your strengths, your thoughts, what you put into it is what matters.

I will not board a plane if every mechanic and pilot is hired because of race, creed, or gender.

gender?

I don't know.

I'd like the best person based on merit.

If the news outlet and friend cannot admit these things freely, quickly, without any qualifications, don't trust them.

Don't trust just not that story.

Don't trust them ever again.

They must always be clear.

Here's one.

Killing innocent children.

You're killing innocent children.

You're doing it intentionally.

It's always wrong.

Whether it be a terrorist shooting or beheading a family, including the babies, or a doctor chopping off the limbs of a child in the womb, it is wrong.

It is murder.

It always will be.

Eugenics under any new name is still eugenics and it's evil.

Doctors killing epileptics in America and later in Nazi Germany.

It was wrong then.

It's wrong now.

It will be wrong forever.

Doctors deciding that a vet needing a stair lift, such as in Canada, has no quality of life and therefore should be offered assisted suicide or the teenager who suffers from depression.

That person should never be encouraged to take advantage of compassionate assisted suicide.

If your news source cannot get that right every single time, they should be dismissed and never being given any consideration on any topic ever again

never listen to those who are confused by the concept that justice is blind if it's wrong for one it's wrong for all if you do the crime you do the time it doesn't matter if you're the president or a pauper a Republican or a Democrat white or black justice

is blind.

If it's wrong to protest rights due to a pandemic, it remains wrong for those protesting during that pandemic police powers.

And it is always wrong to destroy the U.S.

Capitol or a Capitol or burn a city in a riot.

Always.

I don't care whose side did it.

If my children have to have a vaccine before they go to school, so do those children that go to school even if they came across the border illegally.

And by the way, it's an easy call and it should always be clear.

Our border is not secure.

Open borders are not compassionate.

It is suicidal.

If your source can't get that basic fact right,

never,

ever consider anything they say to be trustworthy.

If the source you're questioning, whether they're trustworthy or not, believes that drag queens are appropriate for children's shows, for schools, that parents

are not the final say.

It's the teacher or the teacher's union or the school, or that gender mutilation

is okay this time.

I mean, it's wrong when it's an oppressive Muslim country doing it, but now it's not so much a horror if the science on this new religion is settled.

If they believe these things, then you have your answer.

If the source cannot admit these simple and eternal truths, if you read or hear one news story and cannot decipher who is who or what is what because of news speak, don't trust what they say.

Stop reading it.

Don't trust what they say, what they print, or what they preach.

It is a time of choosing and it is becoming very clear and easy.

I choose truth.

And I don't know what the truth is on some things, but I am very clear on what the truth is on many topics.

I choose nature's laws and nature's God.

Today across the sea,

we observe with heavy hearts the storm of conflict on this day of rage.

Conflict rages on with Israel, a beacon of freedom in the Middle East.

Enduring yet again continual assault by Hamas,

the streets of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem echo with the cries of the innocent.

The international community must choose and answer this question.

Will we stand against those who sow the seeds of chaos and destruction?

Or will we forsake our fellow man, women, children, to violence and terror?

Do Jews have a right to live?

I thought we settled this a long time ago.

Do Jews have a right to be Jewish?

Do they have a right to live?

Do they have any place in the human family?

I know this answer, but apparently many do not.

Do we repeat the sins and the horrors of the past?

And do we do it because so many of us are just too busy, too bogged down in our own life

that we just don't have time to even think about it or get involved?

Are there times where there is nothing more important than stopping all that you're doing, no matter where you are and how bogged down you are and what a crisis your life is in?

Are there times that you stop all of that and

and speak against the unspeakable evil

that man does to his fellow man?

Make no mistake, I've heard all this week, these terrorists are animals.

No, they're not.

Animals don't go in and behead the babies and leave them.

They don't go and kill the entire family and leave them.

They kill for food.

These people, these terrorists, are below the animal.

They are terrorists.

It's time to choose

who we are and what kind of world we want to leave for our children.

And I say this to the Palestinian people as well.

There are no innocents if you remain silent in your own community.

That's what we believed with the Germans.

We didn't go and just kill all the Germans, but we fought the Germans and begged them to stand up themselves

and

stop the insanity of those who led them.

Because they didn't, we had to.

And yes, many German people in their homes died.

But there is a time to choose.

There is a time to stand.

And if you don't stand now,

when will you?

The bedrock of our civilization is crafted from the values we uphold.

The respect for life, the respect for opportunity, the liberty and the freedom to choose your own path and the pursuit of happiness, a civilization that discards the intrinsic worth of every individual, that allows the extinguishing of life, be it in a war-torn land or a comfortable domestic setting,

to become a footnote,

loses its moral compass.

The older I get, the more I realize the importance of every single minute,

every day, every opportunity.

As my children get older, the sands of time slip so rapidly through our fingers.

We have to ascertain who we are.

What kind of civilization do we wish to forge?

Will we build a society that respects life, enshrines justice, and seeks truth?

Or are we going to sink into the abyss where moral relativity and unbridled power govern our actions and darkens our future?

It is time

to choose.

More in a minute.

I look at what we're doing today, and

you know, are you sending your school to your kids to school today on the day of rage?

Damn right.

Yes, yes,

yes.

I am not going to buckle under these monsters.

I am not going to give in to fear.

We have to anchor ourselves in the harbor of unassailable truths.

And if we don't drop that anchor now,

we are just setting ourselves adrift in a boundless sea of deception and despair.

Our future

right now hangs in the balance and you've been given the gift to live and choose at this time and that choice is going to determine the path on our on the hill, on the mountain that we're about to climb.

In our hands

lies the capability to restore, to rejuvenate, to reclaim the liberty, the morality, the ethical governance that once was America.

But it requires a return, a staunch and unwavering commitment to the principles that forged us.

If we fail, we condemn our children's children to a world unanchored, unhinged, and absolutely unsustainable.

It is the time of choosing.

I urge you

to choose now.

No matter how busy, no matter how downtrodden, no matter how worried you are about things,

choose.

Will I stand for those things that I know are true and never sit down?

Choose who you are going to be today.

Encourage everyone you know and everyone you love to return to sanity

and choose.

This is my prayer to you, for you.

This is my prayer that we would all choose and choose wisely.

It is Friday.

There is a ton to cover and a ton to do.

But it's also Friday.

It's, oh my gosh, it's the day of rage.

We're not going to freak out.

If you'd like to, well, you've made your choice.

We're not going to.

Back in just a minute.

You didn't tell me it was also Friday the 13th.

Now I am freaked out.

Oh my

Glenn Beck program.

Okay, forget everything I said.

There is no doubt that the overturning of Roe v.

Wade has put a dent in Planned Parenthood's profit margins, but don't worry about it.

They got something else.

They have gender mutilation.

Yeah, they can

sterilize a whole generation because now they're doing the hormone therapy at Planned Parenthood 2.

In a great,

yeah.

And most times you can get all that treatment on your first visit to Planned Parenthood.

Anyway, we're trying to put them out of business and the Ministry of Pre-Born is doing a pretty good job at it.

What they do is they care about the mom and the child.

So when a mother comes in and she's thinking about having an abortion for $28,

we offer a free ultrasound to an expected mother caught in crisis.

And when I say we, I don't mean pre-born, I mean us, you and me, because if we donate $28,

we double the chance that mom saves the baby.

Double the chance.

And after that, because we love the mother, we take care of the mom and the child for up to two years.

Say the keyword baby at pound250.

Pound250 keyword baby preborn.com/slash back.

And it's BlazeTV.com/slash Glenn.

Use the promo code Glenn and save.

So, I am sorry, I started the whole show without realizing that it was Friday the 13th.

And that, of course,

that's spooky.

My son asked me yesterday if he could watch a scary movie.

And

he's 12.

I have not let him watch any scary movies.

I don't let him watch anything that's controversial.

And why?

Because he's going to have plenty of time to go through the entire catalog of crap.

Absolutely true.

Let him be a kid.

However, may I just point out?

May I just point out?

He's going to do it anyway.

It's better to have him do it at the house with you.

And I thought, you know,

there probably is something.

I'm not against him ever seeing a scary movie.

Just like, I don't, first of all, I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night because he's having nightmares or something.

And so I was thinking, do you have one that you would recommend?

Oh, Silence of the Land.

Silence of the Land.

I was thinking Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

No, no.

You know what I thought of?

Again, this isn't really a scary movie, but I was thinking, I'm like, what can be an older movie that would qualify as scary that he might actually enjoy?

And I thought,

go ahead.

I was going to say Gremlins.

Yeah, that's a good one.

Gremlins is a good one, right?

Like, it's kind of funny.

It's fun.

There's some scary parts to it.

I think for him, it'll be a little bit...

Plus, he'll probably get bored of it because it's from the 80s and he won't want to watch it anyway.

Yeah.

This is as scary as they get, son.

This is it.

All scary movies.

That's it.

Gizmo, that little furry creature, is as scary as it ever gets.

We're only going to watch the first 10 minutes.

Everything's fine.

Tell him, you know what, son, we're going to watch your first scary movie.

We're going to watch the news.

No, I don't let him anywhere near that.

He's like, daddy, can I watch your show?

No.

Never.

No, you'll not sleep.

You'll not sleep.

So,

but, you know, that can all be solved with alcohol.

And so, you know.

So they're going to drink.

They're going to drink.

Anyway, right now, sometimes

we had, well, not an argument.

I lost another battle with my wife, and she's absolutely right, as she always is.

But my daughter has,

she has mono, and

yeah, and she's got a really bad case of it.

And

she's been in bed for, gosh, a week, maybe 10 days.

And her throat is so bad, it's on fire.

And her tonsils are huge.

And

she can barely keep anything down she can't get it i mean she's really struggling so yesterday uh i went to the went to the pharmacy and got some lidocaine gargle i didn't know that even existed and so she gargles this lidocaine and then she just says nothing i can't do nothing all but

okay gosh uh and so it just did nothing i got chloriseptic nothing and she's just in so much pain.

It is horrible.

I mean, that is legitimately.

It's the most horrible thing to go through.

Horrible.

You feel like life will never be the same.

Right.

And

she's just, she's just, bless her heart.

So, you know, she's 17.

And I said, well,

you know what my mom used to do?

My grandmother used to do

shot of whiskey.

And my wife looked at me and she said, excuse me?

And I said, no, no, I'm not.

medicinal you know it's medicinal just a shot of whiskey she has a shot of whiskey she gargles with that

drinks it first of all she'll drink fire I think it'll turn her off to you know whiskey and she said did it turn you off to whiskey

and I said okay yes I'm an alcoholic and she's like Glenn, everyone in your family is an alcoholic.

I don't think this is a good idea.

And I'm like, well, my grandmother,

I don't think she was an alcoholic, but maybe she was hiding it.

I don't know.

But

so you pointed out the one person you think might not have been an alcoholic.

I think that's a shot.

My sisters aren't alcoholics.

Okay.

You know, there's a shot.

And you say you lost this argument.

I'm surprised.

I lost this argument.

I lost all these great points.

Yeah, I couldn't really argue with that.

You know, I was like, I'm telling you, you it works.

And she's like, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

No.

And I'm like, I'm telling you, it works.

And she says, you're an alcoholic.

Go away.

Shut up.

I think it's a tried and true thing.

Is it truly your claim that whiskey would cure mono?

Or was it just

make her pain throat?

Make the pain go away?

I mean, she tried lidocaine.

No, not, I mean, just like a shot.

Just, I mean, because that'll, that burns everything out of your throat.

Burns it all.

you've had whiskey yeah yeah

so it it's uh i mean it's like

the first the first uh shot of whiskey in your life is is that's gonna be terrible especially if you haven't had other alcohol before it like it's gonna be so just a just a shot of whiskey gargle it and i think it would i think it would help i mean it would make let me ask let me ask the active alcoholic sarah

By the way, you gave up on it.

She's dedicated.

She's dedicated with it.

She's doing it.

I don't give up.

I'm not a quitter.

Okay, good for you.

Good for you.

My kids are in it, too.

Am I just of the age where, I mean, I'm not, I didn't seriously fight for this.

I just suggested it because nothing was working.

And it is something that in my family, grandma, you know, we had what was called the

whiskey nipple.

You know, it was before Ben Tom.

Right.

Yeah.

Before Orage L.

You know, just take some whiskey, put your finger on it and wipe it on the baby's gums.

That's what you used to have to do.

It's crazy times.

Crazy times.

But I mean, even, I mean, she's 17, the age of, I mean, gosh, what is the age these days of your first drink?

I mean, three.

Seven.

So, well, not your kids.

But

so,

Sarah, do you remember anybody doing that?

Oh, all the time.

Right.

I don't mean people with a problem.

I don't mean people like you and me.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

And

you probably don't know anybody anybody else but people like you and me.

Well, yeah, but it was a thing to put whiskey on the gums.

Yeah.

And you would do, obviously, at one point, people would do shots before surgeries, right?

Before there was real,

that's how you'd get rid of the pain.

You'd get rid of the pain.

That's how they, you'd drink until you would, they knock you out.

And then you'd still wake up and go,

gosh.

Can you imagine?

I can't even imagine the hangover pain on top of the surgery pain.

That sounds terrible.

Again, we complain about today's era, but there's there's a lot of good.

There's a ton of good.

It's way better than the old days.

The old days suck.

I mean, maybe we had better principles, but I mean, geez.

Say what you will about fentanyl.

It is absolutely deadly.

But I've been in pain so bad, only fentanyl took away the pain.

Or it didn't take away the pain.

It just made me not care about it.

It was like,

I have first-degree burns over my entire body, and I'm still on fire, but I'm okay.

Ow.

You know, yeah.

And, you know, I thank God for, for, for some of that.

So, yeah, well, look, some of these drugs do, uh,

they're wonders for people who really need it.

The question, of course, is abuse and, and when you don't think you're taking it, and there's lots of sorts of other lines there.

Yeah.

But I mean, you know, she's, mono is a virus.

So, you know, she's, There's nothing that we can do except let the virus run its course.

And she didn't really, after about 10 days, she doesn't really connect with that idea in today's world.

What do you mean, run its course?

Well, also, she's a singer.

Yeah.

And

I haven't said anything.

And

yeah,

I'm worried about everything in her throat.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

I was even thinking just short term, right?

Because she's actively in the play.

She just finished.

She was on stage on her last performance, flaming throat.

She'd leave the stage and she'd vomit.

Oh, my God.

And she'd come back on stage and it was her best performance.

Wow.

It was like a Jordan flu game.

Yeah, it was

amazing.

It was amazing.

That's incredible.

Like, yeah, you just keep pushing yourself.

Just don't ever stop.

Here, have some whiskey.

Listen to your dad.

Have you won an award for the parenting yet, Glenn?

No, I haven't.

I haven't.

I I haven't.

But I think that's because I'm a conservative.

Yes.

Yeah.

They're freezing you out again.

Freezing me out of all of those great awards.

Yeah.

You know, and I said to my wife, I'm a doctor, honey.

I'm a doctor,

which I am.

I showed her this.

I have a doctor.

I have a doctorate.

Honorary doctorate.

Just because I got it the old-fashioned way.

Because of honor?

There you go.

Because of what?

You did it because of honor.

Yeah.

Honorary.

There you go.

Yes, because I'm so honorable that they just gave you a piece of paper.

You don't even know you go to school.

You don't need to go to school.

Here, have a scalpel.

What isn't that?

I mean, looking at the news today, isn't the honorary better?

Because if you go apparently to Harvard, you turn into a psychopathic Jew murderer.

I don't know why.

I don't know what's going on with that.

That's...

Very unfair of you to say.

You're not just a psychopathic Jew murderer.

You also want to mutilate children's genitals.

That's true.

You got that.

Here, have a drink.

All right.

You know the old saying, it's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.

That dirty job in this case is keeping the history of your family alive.

I'm so excited.

We are.

We're having a big gala.

In fact, the entire studios, we have an 80, the studio complex, just this studio building is 80,000 square feet.

And we've been working on it to get it ready for this big Mercury One dinner tomorrow in fundraiser.

And then we're going into the vault and showing,

you know, I don't know, have you been over there since it's all been?

It's been a while since I've gone through it.

You should go through it.

It's all been, the vault has all been redone

because we were just, it's too much stuff.

And so it's an amazing place.

So we're opening up for the public tomorrow as well.

And

we're saving history.

And it is so important that you save your own history.

Can I just break from this commercial?

I mean, it's the same thing.

We're talking a legacy box, but

there is something about preserving your own history that makes a difference.

What is the best story about your family

that

you, from time to time, go back to hang on to?

Besides the whiskey nipple thing, which is, I come back to that a lot.

Yeah, well, I mean, I mean, I was thinking about this because my when my dad passed away we were going through his stuff and and i was like does he have any like writings anything that he you know put down like anything that he kept and like the answer was basically no it kind of sucked like i there's nothing i could go back to and i looked through

i looked through tanya's dad's bible and uh i think he does most of it i mean it's well worn you can tell he reads it every day and everything else but he doesn't put markings in it and i didn't say anything to him i just looked at it.

I was up with him last weekend and I was looking at it and I was like, ah,

because I was thinking,

what did he find important?

And so I like don't keep

my Bibles, I write in the side margins of what I'm thinking and everything else because I want to give that to my children and maybe they'll pick up something at least about who I am.

The one story that sticks out to me that nobody in my family knew is that in the Civil War, there were two Becks right in my line.

One died in Andersonville, the notorious concentration camp of the South, and the other, my great-grandfather,

he was never the same.

They both were in, brothers were both in Andersonville.

And I have to tell you, I don't know why, but that changed me.

It was like,

wow.

My family stood up in the Civil War and they fought, well, for a week, and then they were thrown into prison.

I mean, we are really, I mean, you want a SEAL team member?

Don't look over us.

But

it meant something to me.

The Glenn Beck program.

You know, here's some good news.

If you've been thinking about what am I going to do on the day of rage, am I going to rage or not?

I'm right on the fence on that one, Glenn.

It is, you know,

it's what, four o'clock in the afternoon, Jerusalem time.

There hasn't been, you know, a big day of rage.

And I think

there hasn't been anything.

I mean, I've seen that there's protests,

of course, but there's not, there hasn't been any big terror strike.

And that might be that they're busy packing.

Yeah.

Because Israel has told everybody in the Gaza Strip in the north, evacuate now.

Get out.

24 hours.

Get out.

And look, there are some civilians there that, of course, had nothing to do with this.

I'm sure.

I mean, look, some of them are.

I'm pretty sure I'm getting out.

I'm pretty sure.

I'm getting out.

I'm getting out.

Get out.

And Evan, I think this ends with them pushing all of these people, or at least as many as they can, into Egypt.

I don't think

you can't have a Hamas oasis in your country.

That's just not a thing.

You don't have peace when you have that.

When you're in the or you're tired, you're huddled masses.

Yeah, Egypt.

Congratulations.

You're getting them.

They don't want them.

That's the problem.

No, they do not.

They do not want them.

No, they do not.

And of course, you know,

they've been trying to stop this for a very long time.

I think there's a chance that Israel comes to them and says, look, you have to take these people.

They're going to come either way.

There's going to be a big flow of them and they're going to come either way because we're going to push them out.

So let's come up with an arrangement where, you know, we help

you settle them there.

Like whatever the answer is, it's not going to be that, hey, let's just leave Hamas

600 feet away from our citizens.

Like that can't be the answer.

It's bonkers that that was the answer for the past 15 years, 20 years.

But it has been.

Look how well it worked out.

Not well, Glenn.

Not well.

I don't notice.

I've been reading a lot about this, and it did not work out.

Bad things

check into that.

And it seems like when you put terrorist organizations inside your country, no, you put terrorist organizations in charge of your country, governing a region of your nation, sometimes it doesn't work out that well.

Yeah, well, huge mistake.

I mean, look, I pray for the innocent people of Palestine, the Palestinians, pray for them, but pray that they get out of there and pray for Israel.

Jews have a right to live program.

Let me tell you about Tommy John.

Fall is finally here.

It took long enough to arrive.

If you're down south, you know how hot it was this summer.

Of course, you know,

when you get to fall, you got to have the comfort, comfy undies, undies that are going to be comfortable no matter what the season is.

If you're going from hot to cold and cold to hot, you got to have something that's going to be able to bridge both of those.

And you got to upgrade to Tommy John.

When you wear Tommy John underwear, you're so comfortable.

You can do everything better.

This is underwear that moves with you thanks to breathable, lightweight, moisture-wicking fabric with four times the stretch of competing brands.

It's not hard to see why they've sold over 20 million pairs.

You hear commercial.

I feel like I heard a bunch of commercials on podcasts about Tommy John.

I don't know.

They're underwear.

What are you going to do?

They're going to change your life.

They're incredible.

People love Tommy John and they will tell you about it.

They will rant on and on and on and on and on about it.

They don't have customers.

They have fanatics.

And it's true.

I'm one of them.

Everything they sell is backed by Tommy John's best pair you'll ever wear, or it's free, guaranteed.

These are the most comfortable boxer briefs ever, and there is no downside.

Buy one pair.

You're never going to want to wear other underwear.

get up.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

Stand up up straight and hold the line.

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

We gotta stand together.

It's 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, as we stand together on Friday.

I don't know which I'm more afraid of.

It's Friday the 13th, but it's also the day of rage.

I don't know.

Why say we just continue on?

Welcome to Friday.

Redemption is for all.

Oh, is he going to get all Jesus-like?

No, no.

I mean, the music might sound like it, but pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

I want to talk to Jeff Allen, a podcast that comes out tomorrow.

It was one of the most,

one of the craziest podcasts I think I've ever done.

And

Jeff told me things that, like, I was like, okay, maybe you shouldn't be saying these things out loud.

I want to take you through

because it's a story of amazing redemption.

If he can do it,

any of us can do it.

We'll tell you about that coming up in 60 seconds.

First, Tunnel to Towers, I want to tell you about a hero, a 9-11 first responder, fire department, New York lieutenant,

Joseph Maiello.

He answered the call to help others on America's darkest day.

Ten years later, he suffered a fatal heart attack in the line of duty and he left behind a wife and child.

Children, actually, I think.

This is where Tunnel to Towers came in.

They paid the mortgage on their family home and helped to remove much of the financial burden during what was, for them, a very dark and difficult time.

This is who Tunnel to Towers is.

When heroes like this lose their lives in the line of duty or catastrophically injured, Tunnel to Towers is there to help.

They're doing good in our country, and we need more people doing good, especially if we want our government to do less.

America's heroes and their families need your help now more than ever.

Join Tunnel to Towers on its mission to do good in their honor.

More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to Tunnel to Towers goes to its programs.

Donate $11 a month to t2t.org.

That's t, the number 2t.org.

So, uh,

gosh, um, the White House is still working on

figuring out how to get some Americans home, huh?

Yeah, well, they decided no, they're not going to to help with on the ground at all to free these hostages.

It's too much risk involved.

No, that's not true.

Oh,

they decided that, yeah, no, they're not going to do it.

No, I refuse to believe that.

Oh, you didn't?

You're all of a sudden not a trusted source because I can't believe that.

The Glenbeck newsletter, which you may want to read occasionally, has this story in there.

How did I miss that?

It's free, by the way, Glenn.

You can get it for me.

There were 90 stories in today.

I mean, there was too many stories.

We couldn't even get them all into the newsletter.

That's true.

That's true.

But it's glenback.com.

You can sign up and get the free newsletter whenever you would like.

There's a lot in there today.

There's a lot in there.

And as we note occasionally, we don't get to all the stories or even close to all the stories.

But there's a story in there.

I think it's from Politico today that says

inside the decision by the White House to not

get boots on the ground to rescue hostages.

Well, they only killed 27 Americans.

I mean, that's no big deal.

I think that's a part of this that I feel like has gone by without us.

It's really like a huge.

Yeah, 27 Americans and we don't know how many American hostages.

So that's good.

Dozens

are likely.

And, you know, this is the worst hostage crisis.

But he can't since Carter.

Here's what I really like.

He hasn't.

Wow.

Carter.

Huh.

Who would have seen that coming?

He can't even seem to figure out how to get an airplane

over to Israel to pick up American citizens.

Oh, the wording of it was fan.

There's a story that came out yesterday.

May I just before

I just want to say to the White House, now I'm not the president, okay?

I know nobody's confused by that, but I am a thinker.

Here's what you do.

Can you get the Pentagon on the phone for me?

Yes, Mr.

President.

Pentagon line one.

Hey.

Yeah, yeah, General, what's your face?

Listen, I need you to take, you know, those big gray airplanes we have?

Yeah, I need you to land them at an airport.

I don't care where in Israel.

Yeah, Israel, the country.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

I, yes, yeah, I got it.

I got it.

It's not Palestine.

It's Israel.

But I want you to land them in Israel.

And then people with the blue passport, let them get on board and fly them home.

Okay, that's all I request.

Do it.

That's all he has to do.

That's it.

It's just that easy.

Yeah, if you'd think so, but let me give you what is happening here.

I don't think so.

I know so.

Let me give you what is actually happening here.

Okay.

Are you ready for this headline?

Yeah.

The U.S.

State Department.

The U.S.

State Department.

Okay.

Has announced.

Has announced.

So they made an announcement.

Yes.

That beginning tomorrow.

Beginning tomorrow.

Actually, today.

This came out yesterday.

Beginning tomorrow.

So the start of it will be tomorrow.

What will start tomorrow?

They will begin.

So it's the beginning of the beginning.

The planes are going to be there tomorrow.

No, no.

They will begin.

They'll begin

the process

of

putting the people on the plane.

No.

Of

organizing.

Of organizing.

Well, they're community organizers.

The evacuation of American nationals from Israel using charter flights.

So again, they have announced that beginning tomorrow, they will begin process of the process of organizing the evacuation.

So there's five steps built into that before anyone gets evacuated.

Could you read that again for me?

Because I think there's one thing you might have missed in that.

Go ahead.

The U.S.

State Department has announced

that

beginning tomorrow, they will begin

the process

of organizing

the evacuation of American nationals from Israel using charter flights.

There you go.

Using charter flights.

Mr.

President, wake up!

Okay, now that I have your attention, Mr.

President, remember, pick up the phone or just yell at your secretary.

Kick your dog, okay?

And the secretary will come in and go, are you kicking the dog again?

You'll be like, yeah.

Yeah.

Because you didn't come in here.

When I came in, I want you to call the Pentagon.

So they call the Pentagon and you say, the big gray planes.

The big, we've got a lot of them.

They're big, they're gray,

and they say U.S.

something on the plane.

That I know.

Why don't you blow the dust off of a couple of those?

They shouldn't be dusty.

I think we're using them to fly pallets of cash all over the country and all over the world.

But why don't we try to put people in the back of those?

That's what you do.

You don't have to charter planes.

We own our own planes.

It's a fair point.

Good gosh, man.

What is happening to our country?

These people, I gotta tell you.

And it's not really evacuation.

We're not evacuating.

We're picking some people up that would like to come home.

That's what we're doing.

Picking some people.

I swear to you,

if

this audience

and me,

as private citizens,

have to bring Americans home who are in danger a second time,

I don't know what I pay taxes for.

I really, I don't, I don't.

Oh, by the way, when the government is bringing them home, they're going to have to pay.

Now, I happen to know, I know the price of what it costs for a...

you know, a big giant plane to pick up a bunch of people.

Don't ask me how I know it, but it's about $880,000 per flight.

Okay?

It's a lot.

It's a lot.

For a flight.

It's a lot.

Is it a lot for our government?

No.

No.

That's $880,000.

That's a word you never hear in Washington.

You never hear $1,000 unless it's a thousand billions.

Then they might use it.

$880,000, they will spend that in the the time it takes me to say now

to now.

$880,000, and I think I was being generous way too much, has just been spent.

That's on like one program.

And they're charging tax-paying citizens

for a ticket.

What?

What?

I think we have studied the

vaginas of lesbians in the Congo

for more money than that.

And none of us get anything out of it.

We are going to, we've already paid for it.

And my great-great-grandchildren will be paying for those vagina studies when they're old.

They'll never get any use out of it.

And you're going to charge me for a

for a ticket on an airplane to come home where it's a war zone and the only thing that you're supposed to do is keep me safe as a citizen.

Oh, God.

Amazing.

Oh my gosh.

Amazing.

And by the way, there's a very small window here, right?

At some point.

Well, it is Friday the 13th.

That's true.

Yeah.

At some point, very soon, Israel is going to go into Gaza.

When that happens, God only knows what goes on.

All hell could break loose in this region, and you might not be able able to get anybody out of there.

You have this window of four days, five days while they're amassing troops and getting ready to do this, where there's relative calm.

I mean, this is this period now is the good period, right?

Who knows what is beyond the next few days?

And we're like, you know, let's start the process of thinking about how to announce

how to forget it.

May I say, here's the really cool play.

We didn't intend on talking about any of this.

So

please indulge us.

I got a few things to get off my chest.

But here's the great thing.

Great Britain already figured out a way to do it.

They organized and they did it.

Germany.

Germany.

Germany.

Okay.

Oh, they love the Jews.

Germany has gotten people out of there.

I can't remember what it was, but I swear to it's like the Congo has already picked up their citizens.

Do they have big gray airplanes like we have?

No, the freaking queen used to fly on British Airways.

She doesn't even have her own plane.

We have a 747 for our president.

In fact, we don't just have one.

We have several of them.

So he can have a plane wherever he wants to go.

I can have one on this continent and another one on this continent.

You get a 747 jumbo and you get a 747 jumbo and we can't get our people out of Israel.

See, this is why we plan the show.

Otherwise, it just spirals into this.

Give me a minute to collect myself and

tell you about Relief Factor.

Let's say you have a giant pain in your ass

and it's shaped like an old senile man

in an oval room.

And that pain just keeps getting shoved up your butt harder and harder.

And you can't take the pain anymore.

What do you do?

Well, let me know when you figure it out.

But I'll tell you about Relief Factor.

It won't help that kind of pain.

Oh, I wish it would make the swelling go away, you know?

If we could rub this on him and he just like just shrinks and shrinks and shrinks.

He's the incredible shrinking president.

He's gone.

But no guarantees on that.

But I'm willing to try it for three weeks.

The three-week quick start of Relief Factor.

It will help inflammation, which is the leading cause of your pain.

So call and get it now.

It's 1-800-4 Relief.

1-800, the number 4 relief.

Relief Factor, get the quick start.

Try it for three weeks.

70% of the people who order it go on to order more.

I'm one of them.

Relief Factor, 800, the number 4 relief.

ReliefFactor.com.

Feel the difference.

10-second station ID.

A A quick bit of good news here as far as citizens getting out of Israel.

And we don't want to just focus on the negatives.

Let's talk about the good things too.

276 Mexican citizens were flown out of Israel by the Mexican Air Force.

So

that's good.

I swear to everything.

Good job, Mr.

Good and Holy.

I didn't even know the Mexicans had an Air Force.

Okay.

That's a country that most people will be surprised they had an Air Force.

And apparently planes that can fly across the ocean.

Who knew that?

Who knew that?

And they could get the job done.

But good news is our administration is beginning to work on the plan

tomorrow.

Well, the announcement.

They've announced that they're beginning to look at the process

of the plan

to start

to call like a, like a,

like American Airlines and say, how much for a jet to fly

wherever I want it to fly and back again.

And they'll say, are you a terrorist?

Say, no, I'm the president of the United States.

And they're like, I'm going to need a little bit more information on you not being being a terrorist or involved with terrorist organizations.

And so you have to provide that.

And I don't know if he could, but then they give you a price and you order the plane and they fly it there.

We're not dealing with this Monday.

Oh, we're not.

We are not going to be dealing with this Monday.

If we have to deal with this on Monday,

I'm not going to be in a good mood.

Can you imagine what it's like to work with me?

You don't want to.

You don't want to.

Oh, it'd be so great.

I'd love to work.

No, you really don't want to.

No.

Because every once in a while, this Glenn comes out.

And everybody's like, oh, dear God, just look down.

He'll tell us.

He'll tell us to build a rocket ship.

We have to go to the Mars.

We have to go to Mars.

And we got to do it today.

Just

think you're invisible.

I'm invisible.

I'm invisible.

And eventually I go home and the next day is fine.

No, I wouldn't say fine.

Well, I don't think there's been a fine day in quite some time.

But it's different.

It's a different thing.

It is a different thing.

The next day is different.

It's a different thing.

Like last week, it was, hey, the Biden administration, with everything that's going on, they want to deport that German family from Tennessee.

Remember?

the ones

they're a great family, they're they're, you know, just they came from Germany because they have religious persecution they couldn't homeschool.

And while we're letting seven million people across our border, they found the time to deport this family.

Where, see, that was last week, and this is this week.

Now it's we can't fly an airplane into a major airport.

Well, they have begun the announcement of the process of the thought of what might be a plan that could come together at some point in the future to perhaps pick up citizens in some way.

So, but I have good news because last week I had an aneurysm on the show

and I survived.

I don't have full control of my speech yet,

but I'm making progress.

I drag one foot behind me just a little bit,

but because of that aneurysm, I have something great to announce this week about that German family.

Now, could we get it done?

No, of course not.

It's the Biden administration.

Okay,

that would be, that would be, that would make sense.

So, no, could we get it done?

No.

Could we get it delayed?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So thank you, America.

You had a slight aneurysm with me last week, and it looks like ICE is like, okay, okay, okay, okay, we'll leave these people alone

for a little while until you forget about it, and then we're going to get them.

So

they're not being deported this week, which was the case last week.

They're going to surprise them in a year, you know, when we're looking at something else.

Amazing.

People have to go crazy for something like this.

They had to raise

awareness.

I was going to say something.

Raise awareness on this and had to run it up the poll to who, God only knows who.

Eventually, what pressure wound up making this happen, but at least it's some good news.

Yeah, it's great news.

In fact, I have the family on.

Do I have

the mom on?

Dude, coming up in a little bit, yeah.

Yeah, Hannah Laurie, Hannah Lori Romaike,

Romikey, I think.

This woman is, I mean, she's incredible.

I mean, I felt so bad.

Last week, I had him in the studio, and I felt so bad.

And as soon as the camera went off, she became, you know, blah, blah, blah.

You just couldn't, unlike you could have done that on TV.

Anyway, she was remarkable.

i said to her look you know don't give up hope and she's like no even if we have to go back the lord is going to take care of us i we're not afraid of anything it's okay we we're we're on the lord's side and i'm like i i was just humbled by this woman's faith and her faith in goodness her her love for america and her love for god So I'm going to let her break some of the good news with her attorney next.

The Glenn Beck program.

All right.

So did you ever get accused of engaging in conspiracy thinking?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Me too.

Me too.

You know, what's weird is a lot of those conspiracies turn out to be true.

Now,

here's a big problem.

Not knowing the difference between the conspiracy theories and the conspiracy facts.

Tuttle Twins would like to help you prepare your kids and grandkids for being able to separate the truth from fiction.

They have a new book out.

It's gathered 20 true conspiracies.

You know, the ones that the media and the government said, absolutely not true, you conspiracy theorist tinfoil hat wearing person.

And turns out, whoa, it is true.

Tuttle Twins has 20 of them and shows you exactly what happened in all 20 of those.

And it's good for you to learn and good for you to see the pattern.

It's...

Oh, he's looking for patterns.

I saw that Mel Gibson movie.

You get early access to every one of Glenn's podcasts at blazetv.com/slash Glenn.

Promo code is Glenn.

Well, it's a good philosophy.

Yeah, slightly different.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

All right.

So I've had,

you know, I've had a sedative given to me.

So I'm over.

It was whiskey.

He gargled it.

Anyway, so, yeah, whiskey.

That'll make the show.

Give it 20 minutes.

Give me a few more shots.

Anyway,

the Romaike family is a German family that

came 15 years ago to the United States and sought asylum.

They did it the right way.

All they wanted was to freely homeschool their children.

And it's on religious

persecution.

They were asking for asylum.

Obama wouldn't give it to them.

And then we all kind of forgot about the family because they

were here in America and

they were doing well.

Live in Tennessee, get along with all their neighbors.

They're good, industrious people.

Their children grew up.

They got married.

They have other small children.

And just recently, the U.S.

government, when they went in to get their workers' permits, again, they were like, oh yeah,

you have to leave now.

And you have to leave, which would have been today.

They had to have producer passports.

Well, we talked about it.

I blew a gasket.

And apparently some other people did as well.

And the Homeschool Legal Defense Association, who has been on this forever, they are great.

They, you know, they poked around, see what they could find.

And we have some good news for you.

And so let me introduce you to Hannah Laurie

Romaike.

She is the homeschooling mom.

And Kevin Bowden, he is the homeschool legal defense

attorney.

So let me start with you.

Kevin, you talked to ICE, I think, on Wednesday, right?

i talked to ice last week late last week and then we were there in person just a couple days ago okay what did they tell you

we they said you know the family will come in plan for us to sign out their order of supervision paperwork for another 12 months uh which is what they did on wednesday you know i asked specifically about

what was the change and i got basically kind of a canned response about well there's changes in policies and procedures from time to time and

you know

what's your gut tell you?

What's your gut tell you on that?

Oh, my gut tells me that, you know, this is not, you know, with all of the publicity and with everything that's going on, they just didn't want to deal with it.

And so someone at the top said, make this go away, sign them out for another year.

We don't want to deal with it.

Well, I will tell you,

the presidential candidate named Scott from South Carolina

made a few phone calls as well.

So they got some heat from some important people.

So hopefully that played a role.

So we're back to square one, though, again, a year from now.

We are.

Yeah, I mean, this is not a long-term solution.

This is a band-aid.

This is a placeholder.

And, you know, we certainly appreciate Senator Scott.

I know he's expressed some interest in a private bill as well in the Senate, which would be wonderful.

So we're continuing to look at long-term solutions, but, of course, grateful for the 12 months that we now have to pursue some of those a little bit more in depth.

Yeah, well, let me know how we can help in the meantime.

I don't want to face this again next year, and I know the family doesn't either.

Hannah Laurie is on the phone.

This is mom, and I can't tell you, I have rarely met

people as impressive

as Hannah Laurie.

She is, I mean, I put her in the category of

brushes with spiritual greatness

in the category of meeting some of the greatest

religious figures of our day, including Billy Graham.

She is a remarkable woman of faith.

Welcome to the program.

How are you?

Hannah Laura, are you there?

Oh, I just did this great intro, and now she's not here.

I mean, that's...

Oh, hi.

How are you?

Hi.

I'm doing good.

Good.

Good to talk to you again.

I am so glad glad that things are working out.

At least we have a delay, and so you don't have to go back right away to

Germany.

How did it feel when you found out the news?

Oh, that was a big relief.

Yeah, and we are very thankful.

You know, the pressure is going down.

Yeah.

Yeah, and it feels good.

We are very thankful and grateful.

You know,

you were quiet on the TV show with me last week, and then when the mics went off and the cameras were turned off, you just, I mean, you amazed me.

You had me actually in tears

because of your faith.

I said, you know, don't worry, we'll have, you know, we'll do everything we can to work it out.

And you were just not

seemingly in the right way, worried at all, because of your faith.

Yeah.

You know, that is actually an interview is for me harder than a real life experience because of what

we have experienced in the past, how the Lord stepped in and fought our battle, even if we didn't feel like he's still strong, you know, and he still wins all the battles.

And actually, I feel, I want to encourage the American people, you know,

who have prayed for us.

and fought this battle.

I feel like they have carried the burden even more than we did.

And I wanted to thank you and all the American people who prayed and fought on our side.

First, I want to thank our Lord, you know, who is great and hears our prayers.

But I also want to encourage the American people that the Lord hears their prayers.

And sometimes we get discouraged and we think, you know,

maybe it's not enough.

But prayers are powerful and we felt the effect.

We felt it before and this time it was even my dear.

So I want to say a big thank you to the the American people who prayed for us.

You know, they feel so discouraged and helpless and they think that's not the America they know.

But I wanted to say if I have a little bit time

that

how we came over here to America and we came with only suitcases, seven suitcases with a few clothes in and a few German books and toys.

And the American people came and brought us clothes, food and blankets and furniture.

Some of them we still have to this day.

And they even donated a piano and came with their children for piano lessons so we could make a living here.

That's how we met the American people.

They always treated us with respect, loved us, helped us and blessed us.

So and that's how we met the American people.

They were always the blessing and welcoming to us.

So you see what's happening all around the world and you see what, I mean, we are fighting great and powerful evil right now.

And people feel like there's

that they have no power to do anything.

And that's really, I mean, we don't.

We are powerless over this to some degree.

Only God can save us.

But tell me.

Tell me how you view what we're going through now as

a people who believe in freedom

I have I have the Lord gave me a word yesterday that was very powerful and made me think so I can just throw it out to you and and he said he woke me up with that sentence you don't get to choose your battles but you can choose the outcome

And that made me really think that we have more power.

What do we have to

turn the outcome to the good?

And I was just thinking that we have the word to stand out.

That never changes.

All the promises are ours.

Today I have such a beautiful verse I have to tell you.

In Psalm 34, verse 10, those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.

In my past, the only thing through storms that was standing was the word.

The Lord and the Word, they are unstoppable, unshakable, and unbreakable.

And we can be more than conquerors through Jesus Christ and we can be overcomers.

And

I was thinking, what did we teach our children?

I was

looking back and just writing down what did we teach our children.

And then the Lord gave me a very important sentence.

He said, you teach them to respect authorities.

but they have to learn to stand against tyranny.

And so this is very, and I said to the Lord, I didn't really teach them.

And he said, yes, you did, by your example.

So that's what I want to give to the American people.

If the authorities go against God's law, we must obey God rather than men.

God's law is higher than men's.

And Jesus says we need to fear God more than men.

Now, so I feel this is the time not to sit on the sideline, but to become bold for the Lord and and how can we push back the darkness we see covering the land you know that was the question that came to my mind how can we push back the darkness by turning on the light

what is the answer

how do you push back just turning on the light

yes Jesus said we are the light and we are the salt We make the world thirsty for the living water and we show them the light of God.

If we turn up our lights, you know, just shine on Jesus, look on Jesus and be the light he has called us to be.

That's how we win this battle.

Look up to Jesus.

He will teach us what to do.

He will give us solutions.

Hannah Laurie,

thank you so much.

I hope someday that we can...

That I would have the honor to be there at a swearing-in ceremony.

You become an American citizen if you would choose to do that.

But you're an amazing woman.

You have a great, great family.

And Kevin, please keep us involved.

The Homeschool Legal Defense Association, you guys do so much great work.

You know, it's not only religious, but it is also the fact that

people don't want

the unions and the power doesn't want you to have control of your children.

And it is so important that people like you and your organization do what you do.

And anything we can do to support you, let me know.

Kevin, thank you.

Thank you, Glenn.

Thanks so much.

You bet.

Hannah Laurie, God bless.

Thank you.

God bless you.

Thank you for having me.

You bet.

Shabbat Shalom.

It is Friday.

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

He says, Ginger loves Rough Greens.

She's four years old and can be a picky eater sometimes.

But with Rough Greens, she eats her food immediately and she has more energy and she's more regular.

Keep it coming, Rough Greens.

Keeping your dog healthy and

at their

top fitness is not easy, especially if you're buying kibble food because it's dead food.

You want the green stuff.

You want the stuff that's alive.

You want the probiotics and all the other things.

This formula was hatched by naturopathic Dr.

Dennis Black, and you sprinkle it on your dog's food and you just watch the difference.

The biggest thing for me at first was just my dog would eat it.

He didn't eat anything.

He loves it.

He still loves it.

And saw a big change in his health and his activity level.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

You know, I'm watching these press people who are, some of them are very, very brave over in Israel.

And

I don't, I guess I've never been one to have a job where I wanted to wear a bulletproof, bomb-proof vest, you know?

But some of these people are crazy.

The tanks just started rolling into

northern Gaza.

They're in or they're massively on the border.

They're on the border.

They're getting ready to move in.

And Israel has given everybody, yesterday gave 24 hours.

Get out.

So,

yeah, get out.

By the way, speaking of getting out, hats off to Ron DeSantis.

He doesn't have access to big gray planes, you know, like the president does, but somehow or another,

a governor could figure this out, and he's sending planes over to pick Americans up.

Chartering flights.

Yeah, chartering flights.

Isn't that weird?

It is weird.

You know, a lot of people are talking a big game about Israel, including many talk show hosts, and

most of those talk show hosts are not engaging in the activity of flying people out of Israel.

It's great that DeSantis is doing this.

I just wish there was more help from the talk show host community.

Why?

You're going here.

No, I mean, I'm just, I'm amazed, you know?

I'm just amazed at like, where are the, you know, where are.

Do you have anybody in particular that you're extremely disappointed in?

Well, some people have experience with it, and they're still not doing it.

Why aren't they doing it?

Yeah, that's a good question.

You should ask, you know, call your representative talk show hosts and ask them, why aren't they chartering people out of Israel right now?

Yeah, why, why, you know, I don't know.

Can you think of any so?

Congratulations to Ron DeSantis, who apparently's doing a great job.

He's doing a great job.

Why are the talk show hosts falling down?

Well, maybe they don't have a phone and they don't know how to, they don't know how to do it.

Well, you know what?

My guess is most talk show hosts don't know how to do that.

Some do.

Some have already done it in other situations and are just abandoning these people in Israel.

You know, I mean, that's just

a man told me one time:

you know, no good deed goes unpunished.

And

I'm sensing that right now.

Really?

I'm sensing that right now.

This unrelated to a poor, yeah, to a poor talk show host that may have done that.

Look,

some people will act and others will stand by and let tragedy.

You know what?

There's a guy in Germany back in the day.

I don't know if you know who he is.

He was the guy.

He said, hey, we got to act.

If we don't act, it means we don't act or something.

I can't remember the statement.

It's something like that.

Wow, that's a Bonhoeffer story.

Oh, Bonhoeffer.

Oh, my gosh.

You remembered.

How did you remember?

Yeah.

Wow, do you remember the quote?

Yeah, I do.

Silence in the face of evil is evil itself.

Why?

See, that's weird.

You actually have some intimate information.

Yeah, I'm talking about it.

Oh, no, you are.

You know what?

I will say that.

You are talking about it.

And good for you.

Good for you to take that big, brave step to talk about it.

And

you are such a jerk.

You are.

I mean, there's nothing beneath you.

Well, yes, you won't go in and just kill innocent families.

I won't do that.

You'll leave that.

I won't do that.

Yeah.

I mean, I mean, it's certainly.

I won't do that.

That's true.

I have the meatloaf principle on this one.

I'll do anything to torture you, but I won't

literally torture people for real.

Right.

Yeah.

That's good.

That's good.

So, anyway, great job by Ron DeSantis.

Ron DeSantis.

Which is incredible.

How a governor can get that done and our president can't get that done.

Or a talk show host.

Is remarkable.

It's remarkable.

But

our president is looking into it, and tomorrow they're beginning the planning stages

to do that.

The Congo, I believe, has gotten their people out.

Mexico has.

Mexico.

Mexico, two things.

Surprising.

Mexico got their people out and they used their Air Force.

Who knew they had one?

You know who didn't line up any any planes for Israel?

Who's that?

You.

Hmm.

Oh, you got your American-made hoodie on from American Giant.

I do, because I love America.

Yeah.

Selling out.

You're wearing it because probably they're paying you.

I just really like the hoodie.

And here's the thing.

It's been tested in the most frigid environments possible, like this one that I'm currently in.

Oh, really?

You have a problem?

Sarah, can you just turn down the air conditioning a little bit?

Because he's wearing his American Giant hoodie, which you can get at American-giant.com slash Glenn.

I'm oddly comfortable today.

I don't feel freezing.

I haven't had to turn it down.

Can you turn it down?

I'd like to get a 59.

No.

59.

I have a giant.

This 59.

So you're going to warm it up?

This room is its own air conditioning unit.

I mean, it's a gigantic one.

I can make it 40 if you'd like.

You could.

You could.

Yes, I could.

But you're wearing your American.

your American Giant hoodie.

Where could you get one of these?

American-giant.com Glenn.

And I'll say that for free.

I don't have to be bribed with a hoodie like you were.

I'll just do it for free.

That's where you get it.

Best hoodie you'll ever have.

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

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

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

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

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

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

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

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

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

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

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

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

Why wait?

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

You got to

get up.

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

You got to

make it up.

It's a new day of time to rise.

You gotta stand together if the colours of eye.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Holy cow,

We have

we have about

20 minutes of entertainment to jam-pack in the next

60 minutes.

No, and I'm not like Willy Wonka.

Reverse that.

I mean that.

But

most of the entertainment is going to happen in the next 20 minutes because we have Bill O'Reilly on.

He's got some new book he's hawking, so we'll talk to him about that.

But just pretend you're interested.

And we're going to talk to him about the news of the day.

Bill O'Reilly joins us in 60 seconds.

When you get to say, you know, I don't think I'm going to do business with you.

And they're a major corporation, it's a good feeling when you know you can go someplace else and get a better service, you can get a better price, and people that just don't want to stone you to death because you believe in the Constitution.

I know, crazy, right?

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

Got the choir there today, huh?

Yeah, got the choir.

Yeah.

Those people, union people, or what?

Absolutely.

This is a union job through and through.

Good union jobs here.

So,

how you been, Beck?

I'm good.

How are you?

I know.

How are you?

Yeah, I'm the same, which is tragic for everybody.

It is.

Mainly you.

Mainly you.

No improvement here.

Yeah.

Let's just start with just a little bit on the news of the week.

Sure.

How is it, Bill, that

our CIA and nobody had any information of this prior to, and yet the Wall Street Journal, according to their sources 24 hours after, were like, yeah, this is what happened.

I mean, what happened there?

I wish I knew what happened because CNN is directly contradicting the Wall Street Journal, and that was my message of the day on billorilly.com this morning, which I know you and Stuart.

But, you know, I wrote Killing the Killers, which basically praised the U.S.

Intel Services and Israel for

a very good job after 9-11.

Right.

And they did it.

And we chronicled it.

And we wiped out most of the ISIS and al-Qaeda terrorists and all of that.

So it is shocking, and I use that word shocking literally, that nobody would know that this was in the planning stage.

Now,

Wall Street Journal came out and said, according to Hamas sources,

the Iranians engineered all this beginning in August.

And it was a flat-out declarative sentence.

That's what they said.

No nuance.

Right.

Five days later, CNN comes out on the air and says, no, Iranian didn't have anything to do with it.

Iran didn't have anything to do with it which is pretty hard to believe

based upon what we know there is no way Hamas does anything this size without their sugar daddy saying it's okay yeah and I know you read killing your killers and that's how you got that information because it's true it is true it is and and you you're looking at a region that is not full of subtleties here okay

it's not wow okay good yeah I mean I'm a simple man you know Yeah, sure, yeah, yeah.

So the Hamas doesn't make weapons.

They don't have any factories that manufacture rockets and

rifles and machine guns and hand grenades.

They don't have that.

And strangely,

not AKs, but AR-15s.

That's strange.

Look, so they have to be given them.

And, yeah, Russia and China would do it.

They're evil enough to do it.

But we could track that fairly easily.

However, once you get inside Iran, it can become more difficult because it's such a closed society and it's a place where intel is very rare to come out of there.

Israel has better intel than the USA inside of Iran.

And so I'm sitting here, I don't know.

How do I know?

All I can tell you is what has happened in the past.

But, you know, this whole story has been misreported by the world media leading the United States leading this charge.

This isn't about Palestinians versus Jews.

That's not what this is about.

What this is about is a movement, an evil movement, that wants to destroy the Jewish people.

These are Nazis.

There's no difference between Hamas and al-Qaeda and ISIS and the Third Reich.

It's the same thing.

So when you understand that,

then you understand why Israel has to provide security for the people that live there.

And when you provide security, it's hard to do that.

You've got to be tough to do it.

So let me, I'm going to get into this

here in about 20 minutes on, you know, the role of Iran and Russia and everything else and what they would like to see happen.

How do you think this ends here?

It doesn't end.

No, I know that, but does it go back and does it go back to the usual kind of they do this, then they do that, or does this grow into a regional or, God forbid, a global war?

Well, look, I can't speculate on that.

I can tell you with certainty that the Israeli armed forces are now going to go in and decimate all the infrastructure that Hamas had in Gaza.

So it's gone.

Now the Hamas leadership, they're out of there already.

They're in there in London or wherever they go.

They're gone.

But the Israeli Defense Forces are going to go in and they're going to dismantle everything and make it almost uninhabitable.

Now what should happen is the United Nations should step up and take women and children in Egypt, because Egypt can't, doesn't have the infrastructure to do it, and set up refugee centers so that people don't starve to death.

Yes.

No men, just women and children.

Now, where's the United Nations?

Where's Biden leading that?

Is that hard?

No.

I mean, I took a bus through Gaza.

I know what it is.

I know.

All right?

So we don't hear any of that.

And I'm just sitting here, and it just drives me blank and nuts.

about the ignorance on this whole story.

And that includes all the major networks.

These people don't know it.

They don't know the history of it.

They don't know why it's there.

They don't know who Hamas is.

They don't know how Iran operates.

They don't know anything.

So, Bill, I want to change the subject because I want to make sure we talk about something that I think is actually,

you know, I know you well enough to know that you're seeing

your book is about the witch hunts, and you see the relationship between the witch hunts that were happening then and the witch hunts now.

For instance, you know, going after anybody who says, hey, I think your ideas to, you know, alter the globe's temperature might just destroy everybody.

And basically, you're a witch.

And they hunt you down.

Go ahead.

Killing the witches is a contemporary book.

It happened in 1692 in Salem.

20 human beings were executed for nothing because nine-year-old girls accused them of being witches.

It's harrowing what actually happened.

But this is a book about evil.

It's about evil.

And the witch hunt is back because of the canceled culture.

What do you think the cancel culture is?

The witch hunt.

Take the human being off the board.

Ruin their

life.

Let me get this real clear to everybody.

That's the cancel culture.

You're done.

Just like in 1692, if some nine-year-old girl said, Goody so-and-so is a witch and came in the middle of the night and told me to sign the devil's book, you had a rope around your neck.

So, me being the benevolent guy I am, this is the 13th killing book.

I explain it in vivid detail, put you on the Mayflower, and Beck, you and I, Stu might have been okay.

We would not have been on that voyage.

That was harrowing.

Yeah.

So, Americans go, oh, Pilgrim's Mayflower, past the stuffing.

No.

No, it was brutal.

Yeah, I would have done everything I could to get on Bezos' yacht to get over here.

That's right.

Anyway, so

Bill, first of all,

everything that is going on now with the witch hunt

is political.

It's all about political and power.

But this started with young girls.

So

what was the motive for the beginning of the witch hunt back then?

then?

Power.

It's the same thing.

So the ministers and judges who ran the Massachusetts Bay Colony had power over the people because they were telling them they were going to hell.

And they were punishing them for everything.

And the people were scared to death because the devil was right around a corner.

So they used the theology, the Puritan theology, which is insane, to keep the people subjugated.

The exact same thing is happening now, but as you pointed out rightly, it's political.

You go up against the cancel culture 100% generated by the progressive left.

100%.

You go up against them, they're going to try to destroy you.

And Beck and O'Reilly are the poster guys for that.

Every day of my life, and I'm sure your life, we're attacked by somebody.

That's a

somebody trying to, you know, oh, you're a racist, you're a homophobe.

It's getting boring, quite honestly.

It's just getting boring.

Come up.

No, I know, but it's.

I know, I know, I know.

I mean, I just,

I know the poll it takes on the family and it destroys people, but I have to tell you,

the most interesting threat I've had lately, or, you know, you know, people stop me in the streets all the time, you're a horrible racist, blah, blah, blah.

I was in New York and I was walking across the street and a guy who just with very little energy, I saw it coming.

I knew he was going to do do something.

And

so I walked by him and we're in the crosswalk, and he just passes me, and all he said was, die.

And I thought, you know, he's efficient.

He is efficient.

That's okay.

I got it.

I got the message.

Bill, hang on just a second, because you were talking about the Puritans' theology being crazy.

It is actually

the reason why the witch trials went on for so long over in Europe and killed 500,000 people, and this only killed 20,

is because

a couple of preachers stood up and said, you're misreading the Bible here.

You have it wrong.

And it was stopped almost immediately.

Now, not everybody confessed that

they were wrong, but it did stop.

Is that a different thing?

You're talking about Europe or America?

America.

No, no.

That's why you need to read this book back.

The only reason it stopped was because the loons in Salem, 25 miles north of Boston, accused the wife of the governor, Mary Phipps, of being a witch.

The governor, William Phipps, was in Maine fighting the Abenaki Indians.

He comes back and,

excuse me, Your Excellency, your wife's under arrest for being a witch.

That and then he had the militia, Phipps did, and he just put an end to it.

There were some clerics who spoke out, but not many, because if you spoke out against the witch trials, the next day, you were accused of being a witch.

Just like if you speak out against the cancel culture today, they're going to come at you with something.

So why can't we stop it if we

claim that,

I don't know, Joe Biden's wife is a witch.

Look, I'm not commenting on Jill.

Jill is again.

Yeah.

No, I mean,

you look at this.

I mean, when they are called a witch now,

many times it doesn't matter.

If they're part of the right philosophy, it doesn't matter.

Let me give you a quick story because this is so horrendous.

ESPN Sportscaster covering Serena Williams tennis match says on the air, Serena Williams is using guerrilla tactics, guerrilla, G-E-U-R, like hit and run, war tactics.

New York Times Ringer writes, he called Serena Williams a gorilla, G-O-R-R.

Okay, guys fired by ESPN the next day.

He has a heart attack, Beck.

His life is ruined to this day.

Never an apology, nothing.

Out of work, won't work again.

Come on.

So, what was

people need to rise up against this?

What was the

apology after

the Salem witch trials?

What happened after that?

There was never an apology.

Nothing.

Nothing happened.

All of these guys, the judges, made all the money because when you were convicted of being a witch, they took all your land and all your assets and they divided it up among the clerics and the judges in Salem.

They all got rich.

There was never a prosecution of these people.

Now, most of them fell on bad times because of karma, and we detail that.

About the girls' lives were terrible.

Some of them went insane, the girls who accused the people of being witches.

Killing the witches is

a book about evil and the presence of evil on this planet right now.

The last third of the book is now, modern times.

Did you know Beck, you saw the movie The Exorcist, right?

Part of it, I've never been able to watch all of it.

It just freaks me out.

Stu's seen it six times.

It is the movie.

Okay.

Nine people died connected to the production of that movie.

Nine.

Well, you know what?

In the next 20 years, almost all of them will die.

No, but they died contemporaneously.

Big word back.

Okay, all right.

Big word.

Okay.

So I do believe, because I'm a Roman Catholic, there is an act of evil in the world going back to Hamas now.

Yeah.

All right.

That there is

a force that people have, number one, have to recognize and number two, fight against.

So when you see these loons at Harvard, when you see these commentators, these people all over the world justifying Hamas,

they are justifying evil.

And that is the theme of killing the witches.

Killing the witches is available bookstores, wherever.

You, I'm sure, can find it at billorilly.com.

You'll also find Bill's

rant of the day or whatever, some crazy.

And you can get his nosepin news at billorilly.com.

Grab killing the witches.

Bill, as always, great to talk to you.

Thank you.

Okay, Beck, stay well, and thanks for having me.

God bless.

All right, let me tell you about Goldline.

Time to wake up and smell the insanity,

some of which is coming, some of which is already here.

The storm is already on our shores.

Now,

do we miss it?

How much of it actually comes on shore?

I don't know.

But

a long time ago, when gold was $200 an ounce, I started telling him people said I was crazy.

Now gold is $2,000 an ounce, and it doesn't seem like it's so crazy.

Everybody said none of this stuff could happen.

We'd never monetize our own debt.

We'd never have a

debt of $34 trillion.

We would wake up before that.

All of these things are happening just with the monetary system.

And now everything else is unstable as well.

Please find some stability.

Secure your wealth at Goldline.

No, no, no, I don't suggest anything.

I'll tell you, about 10%

of what I have, I would want in gold or silver.

And I'd have it if it wasn't for that boating accident, but that's a different story.

Goldline right now has a current deal.

You purchase a one-ounce gold legal tender bar card and receive two.308 caliber 2-ounce silver bullets for free.

As we navigate these turbulent times, tangible assets, gold and silver, just may be the lifeboat you need.

So

we have

so much to do today.

I haven't gotten to any of the important stuff.

Jeff Allen is my podcast tomorrow, Jeff Allen the comedian.

He's a good friend

and he's a recovering alcoholic.

I didn't really know his story.

We sit down for a conversation and I think it's going to be funny.

And it was, but it was also, there were times when I, I think I even said to him, I don't know if you should be saying this part out loud, Jeff,

because he is a guy, five decade career.

He's now a master of clean comedy, no crudeness, no swearing, no political incorrectness, just jokes, okay?

And

evil is growing.

And quite honestly, I think he would describe himself as, you know,

kind of an evil dude or or wrestling with evil back in the day.

And he did all kinds of drugs and alcohol and everything else.

And the way he treated his wife was, I mean, horrific, horrific.

But if this isn't a story of redemption, if this isn't a story, I don't care what you're dealing with, it ain't as bad as what Jeff was.

And he turned it around and he talks about the struggle to get there, fighting the demons inside, and sobering up and changing as a man.

What What finally quelled that demon inside?

It is tomorrow's podcast, an addict's redemption story that you need to hear.

It's episode 198 on the Glenbeck podcast, available now at Blaze TV, Tomorrow Everywhere.

I want to welcome back to the program Justin Haskins, who is is the co-author with me of The Great Reset and co-author and researcher.

He actually heads up a team for Dark Future.

He also heads up a team of researchers at the Heartland Institute.

He's socialist research center director, socialism.

He is not a socialist.

I just want to make that clear.

I'm not a socialist.

He's not a socialist.

He's been standing against it for quite some time.

And welcome back to the program.

Yesterday, we talked about how Alexander Dugan, everything that that man has predicted and said and planted the seeds, including what's happening with Azerbaijan and Armenia and Hamas and Iran and Israel today, Ukraine, all of this stuff is

coming to fruition and people keep denying that he

has anything to do that we should pay attention to.

But there's something else that is happening, and

he was for this, and that is

a new currency, a new world order of an axis.

I would call it an axis power.

He calls it an axis.

He does.

He calls it an axis, a new world axis of powers with Russia as one of the central figures.

Wow.

And they're building this now.

I mean, BRICS is really, we think of BRICS as, oh, well, this is the world getting together and we're all going to, and this is bringing bringing up, that's not the way Russia and Dugan have looked at BRICS, right?

Right.

BRICS is a direct,

it's the rival that they're building to the G7, you know, United States, United Kingdom, those countries, the most powerful Westernized countries that we think of as being sort of the liberal in the old sense, in the John Adams sense, democracies, you know, and democratic republics.

The counter to that is BRICS.

Now, BRICS started around 20 years ago, and it was just four or five countries.

It was just Brazil, Russia, India, China, and I think South Africa joined after that.

And then that was it.

And they started out as a small thing, and they've slowly been building new resources and coming together in a more sort of intergovernmental way, a more important way.

And then recently, they've put the foot on the gas, and they are now turning this into a real

a real rival to the West.

And they've just recently, within the past few months, approved expanding BRICS dramatically for the first time ever from five nations to, I think, they're adding five or six more nations.

There are 11, yeah.

And there's a bunch of other applicants that various BRIC members want in.

All the BRIC nations have to agree to bring somebody in.

Now, the people will tell you in the media that those are only the ones that have a problem with the United States

and they're afraid that we would retaliate against them, so they're kind of hiding in BRICS.

But I don't believe that to be the case.

no that's obviously not the case i mean south africa is is not that uh argentina is one of the countries that's just now coming in that's that's not that ethiopia is one of those um i don't think egypt would be qualif would qualify as one of those either saudi arabia they're surely not that and we used to have a great relationship with saudi arabia they were very important and not anymore that's all falling apart why uh i think one of the most important things to keep in mind about BRICS is they are doing, they have had the benefit of seeing our failures and our mistakes, meaning the United States and the West, over the past half century.

They're looking at the economic mistakes, not other things, economic mistakes, and they're saying, how do we do this better?

And they're doing all those things.

They're building a new development bank.

They are bringing in the manufacturing producers of the world.

So they're not just consumers of goods.

They're producing goods, like China, for example, is the biggest one of that, right?

They are building a new currency, and all indications are that new currency, which they're keeping secret, is going to be some kind of gold-backed digital type currency.

Correct.

Okay.

At least to begin with.

To begin with, right?

And they are bringing in people who have access and control over natural resources and willing to use them, to sell them, to produce them.

How many of them are the world oil producers?

So out of the top 10 biggest producers of oil, we're talking countries, all of them are now in bricks or are about to go into bricks.

The only two exceptions are the United States and Canada.

Every other one, every single other one.

So that'll show you how serious the rest of the world is on clean energy and wind power.

So let me just say this because there is always kind of a

quiet argument on what made America great.

And I think you'd have to define great.

De Tocqueville talked about what made America great was our ethics and our churches.

You could find it in the pulpits.

People were good.

We were great because we were first good,

and

we

adhered to the principles of God, which made us

self-reliant.

It made us work hard and try not to take

the bread off the sweat of another man's brow.

We were honest, law-abiding.

Generally speaking, that's the way it was.

We've had our problems, but that's what made America great, made us charitable and

bringing people here and giving everybody an opportunity.

And again, it's been a rough go, but that's it.

Now, if you want to just look at the economics of what made America a powerhouse, that's different.

And here's, and let's just go through these, and I'm going to read them one by one.

And you tell me if we have it or if Bricks has it.

Yep.

Okay.

So let's see.

Low regulation.

Absolutely not.

You're probably, depending on where you are in Bricks, you will have that or you won't have that.

You probably have to be in bed with government in one fashion or another.

But if the government likes you, yeah, absolutely.

And certainly on certain things like certain natural resources, mining, the really important stuff.

Right.

Yeah.

But I mean, you know, it used to be the case that anybody that had an idea could come here and start it.

And you didn't, I mean, Bill Gates says he couldn't have started, you know, Microsoft now.

Right.

The system was set up for entrepreneurs and people with ideas and new ways of doing things.

Yes.

Low government regulation.

We are the opposite of that now.

We had the world's resources and we were willing to use them.

So we have more resources here in America than any other continent, any other place in the world.

We've now sealed all those off.

Correct.

The resources of the rest of the world with bricks, and will they use them?

They absolutely will use them.

I think that's

one of the primary reasons these countries are joining is so that they can use it and trade it.

So we had skilled, hardworking, cheap labor.

We don't have that now.

No.

And we don't have the work ethic that we used to.

Absolutely not.

Do the bricks

countries.

Obviously.

Yes.

Some of the biggest manufacturers in the world are in bricks.

We had cheap and plentiful energy.

We don't now.

No, and we're deliberately trying to make it worse.

Yes.

We had gold-backed currency.

We don't.

They will.

Correct.

The most important thing is we had rule of law.

That's why people came here.

They came for a couple of reasons.

They knew that they could start a business and you didn't have to bribe everybody.

They knew that if you had a good idea and it was yours, you might have to fight with it for court, but court would be fair and it wouldn't always go to the big moneyed person.

It could go to the little guy if he was telling the truth.

We don't have that anymore.

No.

We don't have a rule of law.

We're becoming a country at the very top.

You bribe your way in and you can get absolutely anything.

You also could keep the spoils of what you made.

Yep.

You can't here now.

That's why BRICS is so dangerous to us because we have lost absolutely everything that makes us an industrial giant.

Yes.

There's no question about it.

There's just absolutely no question about it.

And BRICS has learned from that.

And what happened in the wake of the invasion of Ukraine and the way the West reacted to that, and I'm not trying to criticize all, I understand that was a complicated situation.

But when they started freezing assets for Russia and they started kicking you off of Swift.

Yeah, when they started kicking people off of Swift, driving these countries into the arms of this is exactly what Dugan wants.

This is the kind of thing that he talks about.

Western overreach leading to these other nations that have tolerated being in business with the West for a long time, suddenly realizing, you know what, we can't do this anymore.

Because if they can do this to Russia over what Russia considers a territorial conflict, then why wouldn't they do it to China?

That's their human rights violator.

Why wouldn't they do it to all these countries in the Middle East?

By American standards, they're human rights violators, right?

So they could do it to any of us.

That's what these countries in the East are being told, and that's what they're thinking.

And it's not consistent.

Saudi Arabia,

not real good.

Not real good for the Jews, the gays,

the religious, anybody.

Really horrible.

Yet it's okay.

But when we select, when we decide you are no longer my friend,

those same things that we were cool with, all of a sudden, you're demonized for and kicked out of the club.

Yeah.

You can't build, you cannot build a civilization with partners like that.

No.

It's either right or wrong.

Right.

And they understand that this is just sort of arbitrary when we decide to just destroy people and when we decide to let it go.

Correct.

And that's why they realize if they don't build their own superstructure where they can control their own destinies and create this multipolar world where, you know, China gets to be in charge of its little, its kingdom, and Iran gets to be in charge of its kingdom and Russia, its kingdom, where they have their own rules.

And we all just kind of leave each other alone.

Like we don't, maybe we don't all agree on what we're doing to our people and whatever.

Maybe we think some of us are human rights violators.

Doesn't matter.

We all just agree to disagree and let's just do business with each other and let's just make lots of money and become really powerful and control our parts of the world.

Then we don't need to worry about Western values, Western ideas.

And that is so persuasive to all of, and you could imagine why, right?

I mean, it's so persuasive to all of these regimes all over the the world.

I will tell you, it'd be persuasive to me in some ways.

I know.

I mean, because you're like, this doesn't work.

This, what we're doing is not going to work.

And

nobody in America is going to, we're not going to have food or energy or anything.

We will become a third world country quickly if we don't get off this path.

And I can see a lot of people saying, well, I want to do that.

And you can't do that.

Right.

And that's part of the appeal that Alexander Dugan and people like like that are trying to make.

You can find out

about this and so much more in our book,

Dark Future.

We have a whole chapter on Alexander Dugan and why it is important you understand him.

He is directly connected to what's happening

with Iran, and I believe Hamas and Hezbollah and the RGC and what's happening with Israel.

He is the designer of what happened in Ukraine, and it's happening everywhere, including in the United States.

And as I just said, these things are,

you know, they're attractive.

Some of these ideas are attractive, but they are not our friends.

The only thing we can do is to restore all of the things that we have lost.

Restore the rule of law.

Restore the idea of hard work.

Destroy any corruption and bribery.

Reset these things back to their constitutional settings.

That will give us new life,

not a new kind of entire new idea and throw out the American idea.

That's what Dugan wants.

Either that or just to put us out and turn out our lights.

Either way, those are bad.

Restoring the constitutional settings is the only way forward.

Justin, thank you so much.

Thanks, Clint.

Good Ranchers is our sponsor this half hour.

When you go into the grocery store and buy food for yourself and your family, the first thing you look for in the meat aisle,

the price.

The price.

And then the sell-by date, right?

You know, the closer it gets to the sell-by date, the lower the price.

And so, yeah, that's where I'm going.

You don't even look for things like, is this really American?

Is this American meat?

And that has to play a role.

I know price is, you know, so important, but it also has to play a role that we are not

putting our own ranchers and our own farmers out of business.

This is where good ranchers comes in.

You're going to get a great price.

It's all American.

Now, if the House decides to go with Jim Jordan,

Gates could be one of the more popular Republicans of all time.

Scalise is pulled out

and doesn't look like it's going Jordan's way.

And there's a new group of Republicans, about 20 of them, that are thinking, why don't we just

look for somebody that we can have that's really bipartisan and can work with the Democrats?

Yeah, that's the thing.

Bipartisan talks are growing.

Very serious talks going on right now with moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats, quote unquote,

that are saying, what if we pick someone like the most liberal Republican we can find that will get 20 votes from the Republican side and 200 from the Democratic side.

Wow.

And then you can get the speaker across and think of what would happen in that scenario.

Obviously, all the investigations are going to stop

right away.

We get Congress back to work doing things like common sense gun control.

Whoever this speaker is will owe his entire political career to the Democrats.

And the other great thing about this is any quote-unquote sensible gun reform, for example, that they want to pass through, they'll get the votes and they can push that all the way through, likely

through the entire

make it an actual law.

It's really great.

So yeah, lots of people.

So here's a good thing.

You might want to spend a couple of minutes today.

If you have a squishy Republican in your district, you should call him today and say, Don't you dare go that direction

because

this could get really bad.
