Glenn Beck and Andy Ngo dissect the "George AI" controversy, defending their proprietary tool against claims of bias while exposing seven manipulation tactics like outrage overload and algorithmic radicalization used by bad actors. They analyze the Supreme Court's potential ruling on President Trump's firing of FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter, warning that upholding it would create an unaccountable fourth branch of government. Ultimately, the discussion argues that media consolidation and emotional hijacking threaten American liberty, urging listeners to support independent voices against censorship.

Christmas has a way of reminding you what a single birth can mean to the world, how the arrival of one child can change the course of an entire story, and how generosity seems to come a little more naturally when we're surrounded by lights and music and people who matter.
This is the season where we look at the manger and remember that every life begins small, vulnerable, and full of possibility.
And that's why pre-born matters so much right now.
They're on the front line with moms who are scared and alone or overwhelmed, women who need compassion more than judgment and real support more than empty words.
Pre-born provides ultrasounds, counseling, and care so a mom can see her baby, hear that heartbeat, and feel something shift inside of her.
That moment when fear gives way to hope and hope gives way to love.
When you support pre-born this season, you're giving a gift of life and love.

Now let's get to work.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Well, hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
We've got a lot to talk about today, an awful lot.
We're going to have to move quickly on a few things, but I want to first start with what the Supreme Court is hearing now, the justices, whether you can fire, a president can fire somebody in the administration.
Because if they don't work for him, who do they work for?
The courts?
This is an amazing conversation that has to be had and people need to understand.
I'm going to go through the Federalist Papers in a non-boring way.
I'm going to try it a non-boring way here to give you a real sense of what the justices should be doing, whether they're going to do it or not.
But have you had enough of the experts yet?
Katanji Brown Jackson, Jackson Brown, as I like to call her, she weighs in on this.
You're not going to believe it.
Coming up, well, yes, you will.
In just a second.
First, let me tell you about American financing.
Most people don't realize how much money they're losing to their high interest debt until they finally sit down and look at all of the numbers.
Credit cards, personal loans, variable rates, it all stacks up quietly.
And before you know it, hundreds of dollars every single month are just gone.
What American financing does is step into that mess and help you reclaim control of your life and your wallet.
And they work with you to consolidate debt or lower your rate or even restructure your mortgage so you can free up real money in your budget and actually feel some breathing room time and time again.
This is the time of the year when expenses just spike and every dollar matters more than ever.
Having a team that knows how to untangle that debt is a gift to your future self.
They're not the bank.
They're salary-based mortgage consultants whose only incentive is to help you find a smarter, more sustainable path forward.
So if you've been carrying the weight of debt for far too long, American Financing is there to help set it right, set it down, start moving again, help them help you.

Okay, so President Donald Trump fired the Federal Trade Commissioner, Rebecca Slaughter.
Federal Trade Commission is an administrative position.
This is under, I mean, the head of the Federal Trade Commission sits as a cabinet member.
And if the justices uphold Trump's firing of Slaughter, that will overturn a precedent that was horrible that was set in 1935.
Remember, 1935, we're flirting with fascism.
You know, everybody thinks, because they haven't seen the horrors of fascism yet, everybody thinks fascism is neat, blah, blah, blah.
And so what they do is they say that this is an independent person and the president can't fire them because they're an independent agency.
Well, wait, that would make a fourth branch of government.
Our Constitution is really clear.
There is no such thing as a fourth branch of government, right?
So that's what they're deciding.
Now, here's Katanji Brown Jackson, who is talking about how we really need to listen to the experts.
Cut for.
Because presidents have accepted that there could be both an understanding of Congress and the presidency that it is in the best interest of the American people to have certain kinds of issues handled by experts who, and I think you were, in your colloquy with Justice Hagan, you identified the fact that these boards are not only experts, but they're also nonpartisan.
So the seats are actually distributed in such a way that we are presumably eliminating political influence because we're trying to get to science and data and actual facts related to how these decisions are made.
And so the real risk, I think, of allowing these kinds of decisions to be made by the president, of saying everybody can just be removed when I come in, is that we're going to get away from those very important policy considerations.
It will get away from those policy considerations and it will create opportunities for all kinds of problems that Congress and prior presidents wanted to avoid.
Risks that flow inevitably, just given human nature, the realities of the world that we live in.
Okay.
Now remember, what she's saying here is we have to have experts.
We have to have experts that don't really answer to anybody.
Okay.
They're appointed and then they're just there.
This from a quote judicial expert who cannot define a woman because she's not a doctor.
She's not a scientist.
She needs an expert to define a woman.
That's how insane her thinking is.
Okay.
Now I'd just like to ask the Supreme Court, when you want things run by experts, do you mean things like the State Department or the Council of Foreign Relations that have gotten us into these endless wars for 100 years?
Because these are the things that Woodrow Wilson wanted.
He wanted the country run by experts.
Okay.
So is it like the Council of Foreign Relations that keeps getting us in these endless wars?
Or is it more like the Fed that directs our fiscal policy that has driven us into, well, $38 trillion of debt?
We have all-powerful banks that strangely all belong to the Fed and endless bailouts for those banks.
Are those the experts that you're talking about?
Or are you talking about the kind of experts that are doctors that gave the country sterilizations, lobotomies, transgender surgeries, you know?
Or should we listen to the experts like the ones that are now speaking in Illinois to get us death on demand like Canada has with their made assisted suicide, which is now the third largest killer in Canada, MAID, assisted suicide, third largest killer in Canada.
Experts are saying we now need it here and they're pushing for it in Illinois.
Or should we listen to the experts?
And I think many of them are the same experts, strangely, that brought us COVID.
Yeah, that was an expert thing.
They were trying to protect us because they need to do this for our protection.
So direct from the labs in China with the help of the American experts like Fauci, we almost put the world out.
Should we listen to those guys?
Or the experts that brought us masking and Home Depot is absolutely safe, but Ace Hardware wants to kill grandma.
Which are the experts that we want, that we want to make sure that we have in our life that they don't answer or can't be fired by anybody.
I just, I, because I'm pretty full up on the experts myself.
I don't know.
But, you know, you're right.
These experts would keep the president in check and they would keep Congress in check and you in check in the Supreme Court, which would be really great, you know?
And you know who else they keep in check?
The people.
So, wow, it seems like we would just be a nation run by experts and our Constitution would be out the window because that's a fourth branch.
And if you don't believe me that, you know, these experts never pay a price, can you name a single expert?
Give me a name of an expert that gave us any of the things that I just told you about.
Give me the name.
Give me, I mean, give me the name of one of them.
Give me the name of one of them that went to jail.
Give me the name of one expert that has been discredited, you know, where your name is going to be mud in this town.
Do you know where that came from?
Your name's going to be mud.
It's not M-U-D.
It's M-U-D-D.
It comes from Dr. Samuel Mudd.
Okay.
He was a doxter.
He was an expert.
He was the guy that set John Wilkes Booth's broken leg.
He made crutches.
He let him stay there for a while.
He claimed he didn't know him, but he did know him.
In fact, one of the reasons why they proved it is because when he pulled the boots off, which he pulled both of his boots off right there in the back, you couldn't have missed it.
It said John Wilkes Booth.
He's like, I had no idea who he was.
Yeah, well, you knew him in advance.
This was a predetermined outpost where he could stay, and it's clear you knew him.
The guy was so discredited, we still use his name today.
Your name will be mud in this town.
And we think that it's like dirt mixed with water kind of mud.
No, it's M-U-D-D, Dr. Mudd.
The expert that was so discredited went to jail, paid for his part of the assassination of Lincoln.
Give me the name of one of the experts in the last 100 years that has brought us any of the trials and tribulations, the things that have almost brought us to our knees.
Give me the name of one of them.
Can't.
Because once you have an expert class, they don't answer to anyone.
So they never go to jail.
Wow, doesn't that sound familiar?
People never going to jail.
There's a rant that's going around right now that I did in 2020.
And everybody's like, see, he's talking about Pam Bondi.
No, no, I got to play this rant for you here a little later on in the program, but I want to get to the experts and what the Constitution actually says about that.
Because you don't need my opinion.
What you need are the actual facts.
So you can stand up and say, yeah, I think Katanji Brown Jackson is an idiot.
Okay.
And she's really not an expert on anything, especially the Constitution.
You need the facts on what the founders said.
Because the founders would be absolutely against what they did in 1935.
Because that just, what does it do?
It just sets up a fourth branch of government.
We'll get to that here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
Our sponsor this hour is Jace Medical.
Around Christmas, you start thinking about the things your family depends on every day, the little rhymes and routines that, you know, keep everybody healthy and moving.
And sometimes you realize all it takes is one unexpected delay, one weather event, one supply issue to throw those routines completely off.
And that is why Jace Medical exists.
They help you build a safety net for your health by providing long-term emergency antibiotics and critical daily medications prescribed by real doctors who understand how important it is to be prepared before you think you need help.
Think of it as kind of a seasonal wisdom, the same kind of instinct that makes you stock up on batteries and blankets, you know, and food before a storm.
With a Jace case or a long-term, year-long supply of your essential medications, you're protecting the people you love in a way they'll never see under the tree, but will be grateful for a very long time.
This is a season about caring for one another.
Democracy Shielded From The People00:14:39

Okay, so what the Supreme Court is weighing now is whether the founders thought they, you know, had something the founders thought they had settled forever.
You know, can the elected president, elected by the people, remove the people's unelected rulers or those kings?
Have we quietly granted power to a fourth branch of government, a branch that no one voted for, no one can fire, and no one can hold accountable?
The answer is yes.
Now, the case about the FTC isn't just about one commissioner or one firing.
This is about whether the American people still own their government and their life, whether the government has slipped its leash.
We've warned about this forever.
Has it slipped its leash or are we going to, are we going to now take the Constitution and put the government back in the chains that are owned by the people?
Madison warned that power cloaked in expertise and shielded from the people would someday become the very definition of tyranny.
Those are his words.
I was amazed.
I started looking at George A.I. and I'm looking, you know, what would the founders say about this?
What's in the Federalist Papers?
There's nothing in the Federalist Papers that actually speak directly to this case.
However, Madison warned in the Federalist Papers that, quote, power cloaked in expertise and shielded from the people would someday become the very definition of tyranny.
I don't know.
It seems pretty clear to me.
It's the same thing.
Hamilton argued that executive power must be vested in one elected president so the people know who's responsible, who to praise, who to blame, and who to punish.
So the answer is really super clear.
Okay.
Leaders answer to the consent of the governed.
In other words, you get to vote them out.
Now, what happens to that system when an independent agency wields the power to regulate business, punish citizens, rewrite the economic rules, effectively legislate?
Yet the president, the only officer elected by the people, cannot remove those people in charge.
That doesn't sound like a government of the people and by the people.
That's not independence.
That's insulation.
That is the birth of something entirely new, an unaccountable power center, a fourth branch of government.
All of the branches have checks and balances.
They all check on each other.
Okay, so none of them can get out of control.
But if there's a fourth branch and no one can fire them, how are they not the all-powerful branch?
America has filled the government with tons of these people.
The FTC, the SEC, the NLRB, the CFPB.
Do you even know what those are?
These are fiefdoms of power.
They make the rules.
They enforce the rules.
They adjudicate disputes.
They punish violations.
And they do it without ever standing for election, without ever answering to you.
And if this stands without any meaningful presidential oversight, you don't have a country that responds to you at all.
The founders would have looked at this structure and said, you've created exactly what we designed the Constitution to prevent.
A government within the government, a bureaucracy above the ballot box, a system where experts rule because they believe they know better than the people.
Look, if this were so constitutional, if this was the right thing to do, why did Woodrow Wilson work so hard and the progressives work so hard from the 1900s, late 1800s, 1900s, to about 1935 to get it done?
Why didn't they just do it?
Because at that time people knew the Constitution and they knew you couldn't do it.
And yes, there is a place for expertise, but there is no place in the American system for unaccountable authority.
The argument being made in court now by the defenders of this administrative state is unbelievable.
They say if we allow the president to remove any of these officials, he might replace them with people he trusts.
Loyalists.
Okay, that means the presidency is the problem.
No, I'm sorry.
That means the will of the voters is the danger.
Get that?
It's not the president, it's you.
Take Trump out of this.
Well, the president, if he can fire people, if he can fire people that are making laws, enforcing laws that don't answer to anyone, if he can do that, that means you can vote for a president and say to him, I want this crap to stop.
What is this?
These people don't answer to anybody.
I don't even know who's making the rules.
And if he can fire them, then the government answers to you.
But if he can't fire them, they don't have to worry about elections.
As if democracy has to be shielded from the people.
And you know that's exactly what progressives believe.
That argument exposes the rift in our worldview.
One side belongs, believes that sovereignty begins with the citizen.
It belongs to you.
The other believes sovereignty belongs to the bureaucracy.
And the citizen is an inconvenience that has to be managed.
This is the argument.
It's been going on for over 100 years.
So this is what we have to decide.
The truth is really, really simple.
You cannot have executive power without executive accountability.
And if accountability disappears, liberty disappears right after it.
Even Chief Justice Roberts called the old precedent a New Deal artifact that is a dried husk.
Even that guy knows.
Because the world that created it is gone.
The administrative state that grew out of it is now something the founders would have seen as a threat to the republic itself.
We know what fascism does.
It's bad.
And that's the beginning of fascism.
That's why it came out in 1935.
The justices asked a really critical question.
If Congress can invent more of these agencies, give them long terms, shield them from removal, and then turn them loose on the American people, what stops Congress from turning the executive branch into a museum piece?
Right?
Just a powerless showpiece.
The real rulers will operate behind thick glass and procedural walls, right?
And the answer to that question is nothing.
Nothing but the Constitution.
Now the question is, do we have the courage to still enforce it?
Do we have the understanding of the Constitution to insist that happens?
This is not about Donald Trump.
This is not about any single commissioner.
It's about whether the American experiment still remembers its first principles.
If sovereignty flows from the people, then the people must be able to correct the system.
But if government power is placed beyond your reach, beyond accountability, beyond elections, then you are no longer sovereign.
You are simply a subject managed by experts, ruled by committees, supervised by a permanent clerical class whose careers outlast everybody you've ever voted for.
That's not a republic.
That's an empire of administrators.
Glenn Beck.
All right, let me talk to you here a little bit about the American or the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Here in the United States, this time of year is filled with lights and music and all the reminders of how good it feels to care for people that you love and also the love you have for people you've never met.
Right now, there are Jewish families, Holocaust survivors in Israel who are now facing another winter without enough food, heat, basic medical care, kids that are still so freaked out by what has been happening.
They're still sleeping in shelters every night.
Okay.
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been stepping into that gap for decades, making sure that the most vulnerable, especially the elderly, are not left behind.
And they provide food boxes, warm clothing, emergency assistance, and a human connection in places where loneliness is just as real as poverty.
I can't imagine what it feels like to be a Jew today.
Jewish people have got to feel very alone and very unsure of what's coming next.
Be a Christian that will show God's love to the world.
It's worth remembering generosity isn't just about celebration.
It's about compassion and everything else.

Story we talk about every day.
So we've you know we are.
We are talking uh, about the, the decision in the Supreme Court on whether or not and the president can fire the experts that are in and part of the administration.
or if they don't answer to anybody.
And if they don't answer to anybody, then you don't have a republic because who's actually running things?
I mean, we've already seen this.
Congress doesn't make laws anymore.
They give it to the administrative state.
The administrative state makes the decisions.
Then they're telling us that, and that's not their job.
That's the Congress's job, according to the Constitution.
They already gave that away.
Now they want to say any of the experts on any of these panels or anything else that are in with the administration, president can't fire them.
Well, then how do you, as a person that goes to vote, how do you change policy in this country?
You can't because you'll just keep electing a new president who will promise to change things and he can't change things because his hands are tied.
You can write to Congress and say, hey, I want things changed.
You can elect a whole new Congress and they all say we're going to change things.
But if they can't fire the people who actually make the laws, then what are you doing voting?
And don't think that this is not by design.
This is exactly what the progressives wanted from Woodrow Wilson.
And honestly, I asked that question, you know, with all honesty.
Tell me the experts that have been running things, the Fed, our health, COVID, our wars.
Tell me the name of the experts that you're like, we could not have done it without this person.
I'm glad they made all of the decisions and left us out of it.
Can you name one?
Because I can't.
I can name a lot of experts that I think should have gone to jail.
But again, why haven't they gone to jail?
Why haven't they at least been fired?
Have you ever noticed that people get away with stuff that you and I would go to jail for or at least be fired and wildly discredited and they still have their job?
You wouldn't.
Why is that?
Because of what the Supreme Court is deciding right now.
This is such an important case because these experts are just getting worse and worse and worse.
I mean, Stu, what's the name of the lady up in Canada that is trying to get health care?
She's going to die.
They're putting her on MAID where she doesn't have to go and have assisted suicide.
Yeah, no, it's absolutely unbelievable.
Jolene Van Alstein is her name.
She has a rare form of parathyroid disease and it causes extreme bone pain, nausea, and vomiting.
So really, really rough situation.
There is some hope for her, which is a surgery.
It would remove her parathyroid gland, but she's in Saskatchewan, and there is no surgeon available to do the surgery.
No one can do it for her.
Now, in theory, she could go to another part of Canada to get this surgery.
However, the government bureaucracy prevents her from doing that without a referral by an endocrinologist.
However, another expert.
Another expert.
The problem with that is there are no endocrinologists in Saskatchewan accepting new patients.
So she can't get in to get the referral.
And so she's in so much pain.
She's been dealing with, I guess, an increasing level of pain and awful side effects for years now.
And she's at the end of her rope and she can't get into a doctor to get the referral so she can go get the surgery.
So her answer is MAID, which is the assisted suicide program.
And that is only weeks away.
January 7th, she's been approved to kill herself.
Can We Raise Money for the Surgeon?00:02:44
You've got to be kidding me.
Oh, they'll approve that.
And who do you go to fight?
Who do you go to fight?
You can't go to the government to fight it because the government will say it's the experts that are running the health industry.
They're the experts.
So they make all of the rules.
I can't change anything.
Well, that's the problem.
That's the problem.
How many times have you had to go to a doctor, had a problem?
It's really simple to fix, but they require all of this paperwork, all of this bullcrap, and they put it in your way, and you can't talk to anyone about it.
It's just the way the system is.
That is what the Supreme Court is deciding right now.
Are we going to live like that for another hundred years or until this country just completely dissolves?
Or are we going to take back the Constitution and your individual sovereignty so you don't have that kind of a system where they'll quickly get you off the rolls?
They'll quickly approve you for death and help you die.
By the way, we have got to find, there's got to be, what is she, what kind of doctor does she need?
She needs.
Somebody that can remove a thyroid?
Yeah.
A surgeon there and I guess probably an endocrinologist to go through with the symptoms.
They're saying that they're trying to appeal to the government, the health minister.
Apparently they did have some recent meeting.
I'm not sure what happened with that, but the...
This is so wrong.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, the fact that this would even be an option, I hope there's some way to work through this.
There's some way for this to be able to do that.
Okay, so here's the thing.
Is there somebody in this audience that knows a surgeon that does that kind of what is the surgery she needs?
To remove a parathyroid.
To remove a parathyroid.
Yes.
If you're a surgeon that will do that, I'll pay for her to come down.
I mean, is there anybody that will do this?
Is there any is there, can we raise the money to pay for the surgeon?
Is there a surgeon that would do it for free?
I mean, how can we get this done?
Because this is ridiculous.
Somebody, and this is happening over and over and over again.
And by taking care of her, maybe it would make headlines and people would see, wow, that's insane.
I don't want that kind of health care.
Because everybody's like, you know, Canada.
Canada is on fire.
The Canadian citizens are on absolute fire right now.
And there's not a fireman or a doctor that will put you out or give you a band-aid.
It's bad what's happening up in Canada and people aren't paying attention to it.
Spreading Control Beyond Experts00:06:18
Yeah.
Put that out on my, would you tweet something for me?
There's got to be a way that we can, I don't know.
Yeah, let's.
I mean, if we can get a doctor down here.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, look, we'll figure out a way to pay for it.
Yeah.
You know, this is, there's no reason this woman should be tortured into suicide.
That is not something that should occur.
You know, in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, like this can be solved, you know, assuming, you know, maybe because of the attention to this, Canada's going to go, oh, what are you talking about?
No, come on over.
We'll get the surgery done.
They might bail it out.
Let's put the pressure on.
Let's put the pressure on.
Let's put the pressure on it.
There's got to be a way.
Could you post this for me, Stu?
Can you write something up and have it posted?
Yep.
Yep.
We'll get to it.
Got to help her.
Got to help her.
By the way, it's never good when you consolidate power.
It's never good.
And what is going on now with this Netflix, Warner Brothers, Paramount stuff?
I don't care if Larry Ellison is a conservative or not.
No one should have that much power.
I did a show, gosh, four years ago.
I don't even remember what I did.
We looked it up.
In the 1980s, 90% of American media was owned by over 50 companies.
40 years later, 90% of the media is watched and controlled by six companies.
National Amusements, the Redstone Family Control, CBS, CMT, MTV, Nickelodeon, Gaming and Internet, Simon ⁇ Schuster Books.
That's all one.
Disney, ABC, ESPN, History Channel, Marvels, Star Wars, video games in print.
Time Warder controls CNN, Warner Brothers, HBO Turner, video games, internet, and print media like Time.
Comcast, MSNBC, NBC, CNBC, Telemundo and the internet, News Corp, Fox, National Geographic, ton of others, Sony with a ton of movies, music, and more.
The big six, they're valued at nearly $500 billion.
Now, this is something I put together five years ago, so I don't even know.
This is probably not even valid even today.
And now we're talking about Netflix, Warner Brothers, Paramount into all of these, one giant corporation.
It's wrong.
It's wrong.
We can't keep putting everything into the hands of just a few.
It's what's killing us.
We've got to spread this around.
The government cannot okay mergers like this.
They're big enough.
What happened when the banks went under or almost went under in 08?
What did they say the problem was?
They said the banks are too big to fail.
Too big to fail because they were providing all of the services everybody needs all the time and there's only a handful of them.
So if they fall, then everything falls, right?
That was the problem.
So what did we do to fix it?
We made them bigger.
We let them merge with other banks and gobble up other things and started taking on the local banks.
And so now your banks that were too big to fail are now even bigger and their failure would be even worse.
What is wrong with us?
Seriously, we're not this stupid.
We are not this stupid.
I think we're just this comfortable.
We just think that, you know, the experts have a plan.
No, the experts don't have a plan.
Their plan is stupid.
Their plan is to make it bigger.
Every time it fails, make it bigger.
Push it up.
Make it more global.
No.
Haven't you seen what the entire world is like?
The entire world is overleveraged.
The entire world is on the edge.
The entire world is being redesigned.
So what do we do?
We don't allow them to make things bigger.
We need to start taking more individual and local control of things.
They're making it bigger, which will make the problem bigger and make the problem so big, you won't be able to do anything about it because all the experts, all of the heads, there'll be six of them.
And they'll all be sitting in one room and they'll all be making the decisions.
And with them making those decisions will be all the heads of all of the countries around the world that you're not going to have a say in any of that.
They're already trying to do it with the WEF.
But if the Supreme Court says, no, experts matter and the president can't fire them, you will not have any control over anything.
We're at this place where we can back out.
We can turn around.
We can do it.
It's not too late, but the hour is growing very late.
I don't know about you.
I don't like being this up to the edge.
You know what I mean?
I'd rather have lots of breathing room between me and the edge of the cliff, but we don't have that anymore.
Everything has to be done right and we have to pay attention.
And the worst thing that we can do is make things bigger.
Think small.
Think small.
Dream big.
Think small.
Back in a minute.
So, you know, you can go to one of these big, you know, real estate companies.
You know, I'm with Berkshire Hathaway.
Oh, wow, that's big.
But does that mean anything?
I mean, because you're not getting Berkshire Hathaway.
You're getting that individual.
And you're hoping that individual is good because this big company said they're great.
We've decided to go another way.
Why Your Agent Matters Most00:04:11
With realestateagentsitrust.com, we decided, let's look at the smallest component.
Let's look at the one that actually matters.
The professional, the real estate agent.
Look for people who are experienced, vetted, who know the local market, who communicate clearly, who listen and take your goals seriously from day one.
We started working with the five best, 500 best real estate agents, according to the Wall Street Journal, in the country, and we learned from them.
And then we started looking for more people like that that had those same characteristics and understandings and the same kind of work ethic and the same kind of people that listen to this show so they know you and you're not going to go through a showing and you say, where's the master bedroom?
And they're like, oh my gosh, you're such a racist.
We can't sell you a house.
Find the expert that is local.
Find the one that lives near you and knows your market.

It's realestateagentsitrust.com, a free service to you.
Tell us where you're moving to and from, and we'll help you find the right real estate agents that can make that happen.

The rope may break, but the ride goes on.
This is Glenn Beck.
There's a certain kind of blind trust we all place in the idea of home ownership.
It's a fundamental tenet of American life.
You know, you sign the papers, you make the payments, you keep the place in good shape, and you can assume that the title is locked down and protected.
The truth is, it's not.
Your home's title sits in a digital filing cabinet that anyone with the right information can tamper with.
And criminals have figured out how to exploit this weak spot.
They transfer ownership on paper.
They take out loans against your equity, and they leave you to unravel the mess long after the damage has been done.
Home Title Lock exists because homeowners really shouldn't have to deal and learn about title fraud by becoming a victim of it.
They monitor the place where these changes happen and they alert you the moment something looks off.
So you can stop fraudulent transfers before they become legal and financial nightmares.
We've talked about Home Title Lock.
I've been partnering with them for such a long time.
It's a great company and they protect your equity.
They find out what's going on with your title and they make sure that you're protected.
If you right now sign up and you use the promo code Blaze at home titlelock.com, you'll get a free title history report, plus a free trial of their million-dollar triple lock protection.
It's 24-7 monitoring of your title records.
It's urgent alerts to any changes.
And if fraud does occur, their U.S.-based restoration team will spend up to a million dollars to fix it.
That's hometitleock.com.
That's a real commitment, a million dollars.

Welcome back to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
There's so much going on today.
So much going on.
You know, my job is to help you make sense of the world, help you, when you're looking at all the news, you're hearing all these things, you're seeing them on, you know, X or wherever you hear your news, to try to put it into perspective and help you, assuming that your goal is the same as mine, is save the Republic, right?
I don't want to fall into any kind of fascism or communism.
I want the Republic as it was detailed in our founding documents.
I want our mission statement to remain the same, that all men are created equal.
I want to be the lighthouse where free people or people who want to be free, who understand what that means.
But I don't think we even understand what freedom means anymore.
Defining True Freedom00:03:23
I did a monologue on that yesterday.
But I think everybody just thinks, oh, yeah, you're over in Europe.
You're free.
No, no, you're not.
Not like you are here.
But we're eroding so much of what makes us free.
We're eroding all of these things.
You know, the First Amendment, freedom of speech.
There are so many people now that are now saying that they don't think freedom of speech is all that important because if it offends them or if it hurts, then it's wrong and it's bad.
You don't understand.
And The other thing we have going against us is that we're not looking at is that we have people that are trying to divide us inside and outside of our own country.
And I want to talk about that and show you the seven steps on how to take a country apart and how to educate ourselves on those things to make sure that we're not being used.
They're trying to divide.
How do you stop it next?
This is Glenn Beck.
Let me tell you about Masa Chips.
There is this time of the year, there's something that makes you reach for real flavor, not the cheap stuff, but the kind of snack that actually tastes like somebody put care into it.
When the days get shorter, the air turns sharp, you want something with actual craft behind it.
And Masa chips are exactly they, that.
They start with real heirloom corn, the good stuff, stone ground the traditional way.
So you get that deep and toasty flavor that you can't fake.
And every chip has real weight to it.
And the satisfying crunch feels like it came out of a kitchen, not a factory line.
While every other brand is trying to outdo itself with artificial this and experimental that, Masa stays rooted in something honest, delicious, honest, real ingredients.
Ready to give Masa or Vandy the best potato chip I think has ever been made?

Stand Your Ground When Times Get Dark00:03:07
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
It is Tuesday.
We're just a few, what, about a week, two weeks away from Christmas is the ninth.
Did some Christmas shopping yesterday.
It was absolutely agonizing.
But hey, but always fun, right?
This brings the Christmas cheer right just right directly home to you.
There's important stuff we have to talk about, but I would like to look for the most important story.
This is what I do every day.
I try to find the most important story.
And I think the most important story actually is a combination of a whole bunch of stuff.
And I want to break that down because united we stand, divided we fall, and there is an effort to divide us now.
And I want to talk about that in 60 seconds.
First, during the holiday season, we talk a lot about gratitude, the kind that shows up when you realize how much of your life is built on the sacrifices of others.
For the fallen, the families of the fallen first responders or disabled veterans, the gratitude is mixed with reality that most of us never have to face.
Tunnel at Towers steps into that pain with something practical and life-changing.
They pay off mortgages for Gold Star and first family, first responder families, and they build specially designed smart homes for our most catastrophically injured heroes.
It's not charity for the sake of charity.
It's a debt of honor.
That's what I love about this charity.
They actually do what they say.
They mean what they say.
When somebody risks everything for one of us, we can't let their families stand alone.
In a season built around giving, it's worth remembering how powerful it is to lift an entire family by taking away the burden of a mortgage or a home that they could never afford to keep on their own once the breadwinner is out.
Tunnel at Towers makes this possible.
Help and honor America's heroes this holiday.
All you have to do is donate $11 a month to Tunnel at Towers at t2t.org.
That's T, the number two T, dot org.
So, 2027 will be my 50th year in broadcast.
And I have learned so much in these 50 years.
And everything I learn, I feel like, gee, I wish somebody would have told me that earlier.
Because this business in particular, mentors don't exist.
Everybody is.
I had a mentor when I was 16 years old, 15 years old.
And his name was Michael O'Shea, and he was unbelievable.
He was one of the leaders of this industry for a very long time.
The Mentorship That Changed Everything00:15:04
And he told me that he gave me this responsibility.
He said, I mentored you for several years.
Now it's your turn to mentor other people.
Because everybody is so selfish, and everybody's protecting their own fiefdom.
And we all try to figure, it's the same with you.
We all try to figure out what is going on in our world and our life and our families with our children.
And it's becoming so complex now.
You know, it's not Little House on the Prairie anymore.
The problems are just enormous and none of us seem to know how to deal with them.
And, you know, I wish somebody would have told me a long time ago that we're not being lied to anymore.
The American people are being played.
And there is a huge difference.
We were being lied to for a while.
And a lie will fool you once.
But being played turns you into a tool in somebody else's hands again and again and again.
And the truth on this that is just heartbreaking, and I don't know, every day I get up and I think, how can I serve the audience?
How can I make your life easier?
How can I help you understand what's going on so we can save the republic together?
The American right, conservatives, Christians, good people, are being turned right now into weapons against one another.
And that's not because they're stupid or we're stupid.
It's because the tools being used against them were designed to work on absolutely any human being.
And you have to understand those tools.
And we have to understand not to divide, not to shame, but so we can finally say, not me, not anymore.
I'm not playing that game anymore.
So today I'd like to spend some time just to walk you through what is happening and how to break the spell before the Republic breaks with it.
Because there's several things that are happening.
So let me give you tool number one.
Identity panic.
This is one way on how we're being used and played and set against each other.
You're in danger.
React now.
Think later.
Just do it right now.
Every day, every minute of every day, there is a headline crafted not to inform you, but to set your lizard brain on fire.
That ancient part of all of us that just screams, you know, fight or die, fight or die.
How many times do you look at a story and go, I am so outraged, and you pass it on to somebody else because you were like, you're going to be so outraged by that?
I find myself doing that all the time.
That's a problem.
Because once we are outraged, once we react emotionally, the manipulator already owns you because panic overrides principle.
So there are going to be stories that you are outraged by, but you have to ask yourself when you read them, who benefits from me being outraged by this?
Who benefits from keeping America in a permanent state of alarm?
Because we are.
That's why we're so exhausted.
That's why so many people are just like, I'm not listening to the news anymore.
And it's not you.
It's not your neighbor.
It's not the country.
It's those who gain power when you lose clarity.
Who is gaining power when we just are surrounded by hating each other?
Okay.
The second tool used to manipulate you is black and white, heroes and villains.
Okay.
Now listen to this carefully.
This one man will save us.
This one man will destroy us.
Okay.
That's wrong.
When a movement forgets its principles and attaches itself to a personality, this one man can save us.
It becomes very, very fragile and very predictable.
Okay.
The founders knew this.
It's fragile because if that one man goes wrong, if that one man dies, if something happens, then it's over.
Then it's over.
If that one man doesn't do what the mob says it should do, then that man has sold out and you got nothing left.
This is why Washington refused to be the king.
He refused a crown.
He understood that the moment a people start looking for a savior in human form, they stop looking for virtue in themselves.
They don't have to be virtuous because that guy will be virtuous for me.
If you want to control a group, you give them somebody to worship and somebody to hate.
Then tie their identity to those puppet strings.
Here's tool three.
False choices.
The false choice is you're either with us or you're against it.
This is the favorite tactic of tyrants and propagandists because it destroys all nuance, all of it.
It destroys conversation.
It destroys coalitions.
How many times are you hearing this right now?
Oh, I've listened to them forever, but they don't agree with me on this.
They've sold out.
Okay?
That turns us into warring tribes, and each tribe is convinced that the other is a traitor.
Listen carefully.
When someone tells you there are only two choices, they're hiding the third.
And the third is usually the truth.
Things that happen, America was built on debate and complexity and conscience.
Those things.
are big and broad and we disagree on some of those things.
So how can we always agree on everything or you're a traitor?
It doesn't.
That's a false binary, and we're being pushed into this.
You know it.
We've talked about it.
I've talked to so many people recently.
I read what people are saying online.
It's crazy talk.
It's crazy talk that if I don't believe everything that you believe, I'm now your enemy or you're mine.
You're not my enemy.
We just disagree.
And we can work things out if we talk to each other.
But if you're screaming that I've sold out or if I'm screaming that you're now a puppet, you know, doing the work of somebody because you've been paid off.
Well, what do we have to talk about?
Answer, nothing.
Tool number four, outrage overload.
If everything is urgent, which doesn't it feel like everything is?
Right?
I look at the stories that we send out to you every day.
We try to give you all the news that is important and some of the news that is over the horizon that will be important.
And all of it feels like it's so urgent.
But if everything is urgent, then nothing is important.
We're living in a constant scandal.
News alerts, influencer clips, social media flame wars, they're happening all the time.
It's a fire hose that's not putting things out.
It's pouring gasoline on the flames.
And it's meant to keep you exhausted, wear you out.
Why?
Because if you're tired, a tired public is an obedient public.
You just give up.
And an angry public is a predictable public.
If your emotions are constantly inflamed, your discernment is constantly offline.
That's not an accident.
It's a strategy.
And unfortunately, these things are now algorithmic.
Tool five, algorithmic radicalization.
What happens with these algorithms?
What are they doing to us?
They feed us the most extreme version of what it is you already believe.
Your phone is not showing you the world.
I don't know.
It's shaping you.
It's not showing you anything.
It's shaping you.
If you click on something mildly upsetting, it's going to show you something more upsetting next.
And it does it because it doesn't hate you, but because anger pays better than truth.
You're engaged longer.
Now, we can blame this on the social media companies, and there's a lot of blame to be had there.
But thank God, X has finally done something where you're starting to see where these accounts are coming from.
Foreign adversaries are exploiting this.
And we all know this, but nobody thinks it's happening to them.
They think that their guy, their thing, is not being pushed by a foreign, you know, country, an adversary.
They think that their stuff is all organic.
And most likely, it's not, especially if it is an extreme.
Because political operatives that want to destroy the Republic are exploiting this.
Bad actors are exploiting this.
And in the end, you wake up believing that your next door neighbor or somebody you've known for 20 years is somehow your enemy.
That's not politics.
That's programming.
Tool number six, emotional hijacking.
Your feelings are real, but the narrative attached to them may not be real.
Understand?
There's stuff that's going on right now that your emotions are absolutely right.
You have a right to be pissed off.
But is the narrative that has caused that, the narrative that is feeding that, is that real?
Manipulators know they don't have to win the argument.
All they have to do is overwhelm your heart and your feelings.
If they can make you mad enough, scared enough, grieved enough, they can move you anywhere on the chessboard they want.
This is why they say, share this immediately.
Don't question.
Don't wait.
Don't think.
Share it immediately, immediately.
Because the moment you pause, the spell breaks.
The moment you pause, you kind of, we're like goldfish, man.
We just kind of go on to something else.
Tool seven is probably the worst out of all of them, and that is spiritual confusion.
If you can replace faith with faction, replace God with politics, if you want to break the church, you don't burn the church.
You counterfeit it.
You inject politics into the pulpits.
You make Christians suspicious of other Christians.
You turn disagreement into apostasy.
You make the kingdom of man more important than the kingdom of God.
And once the church is confused and divided and partisan, it cannot any longer see clearly and it can't lead.
And the Republic loses the conscience that once kept it standing upright.
So there's a way to break all of this.
And I'll give that to you here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
Patriot Mobile, in a world where corporations are making loud ideological choices with your dollars, it's worth asking whether your carrier lines up with your values.
Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, and they put support, their support, behind causes that protect freedom, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment.
They defend families.
They stand for the principles that so many of us really care about.
They also give you nationwide coverage on the same towers that everybody else uses.
So you're not sacrificing reliability just to stand for something you believe in.
And during this season, when we're thinking about giving, about stewardship, and about being intentional with the resources that we have, it makes sense to partner with a company that treats your business like a responsibility instead of a tool for social pressure.
With Patriot Mobile, your phone service becomes one more place where your values actually show up.
And that is something you can be proud of.
Switching is really easy.
You can keep your number.
You can keep your phone.
You can upgrade to a free smartphone right now.

10 seconds, station ID.
So how do we break the spell?
We have to be, and I'm trying to do this, and I'm not good at it.
I mean, I am emotional just like you are.
I'm surrounded by this stuff all day long, all day long, and I lose my way.
I lose my temper so easily, and I've got to stop that.
What we have to do is when you feel pushed, when you start to have fear or anger or confusion on things, ask yourself a few things.
One, has this already been solved?
Return to Universal Truths00:17:00
Is there a universal principle?
Is there a universal truth that has been known forever that has solved this?
I don't need to look for anything new if there's a universal truth.
I just have to return to that one.
Second one, who benefits from my fear or my anger or my confusion?
If the answer is a foreign government, a political operation, a media company, a social platform, a personality seeking power, then you may not be consuming information.
You're being consumed by it.
A nation as strong and as old as ours can survive mistakes.
But we're not.
I don't know if we're making mistakes anymore.
The Republic can't survive manipulated citizens.
And I'm not sure if anybody is really making honest mistakes.
I think they just don't know they're being manipulated.
America has never, it's never been a problem when we disagree with each other.
Okay?
We don't fall when we disagree.
It falls when people stop being able to tell who's manipulating them and why.
It falls when you're no longer allowed to speak the truth or say, I disagree with you on this.
When you're suddenly an enemy because you say that and suspicions run deep and all of a sudden you are as bad as any foreign enemy.
So today I want to leave you with this.
Here's the truth.
You are not the problem.
You are the target.
And if we can all stop being the target and learn to see the trap, we save the republic.
My job is not to tell you what to think.
My job is to show the machinery behind the curtain so you can think for yourself again.
Because free people who can think clearly are the one thing that tyrants and propagandists and foreign adversaries can never defeat.
Glenn Beck.
All right, let me tell you about our sponsor.
It's Cozy Earth.
When the weather turns cold, my gosh, I got up this morning.
It is 71 here today.
And I thought, oh my, what's it like everywhere else?
Stu, what's the temperature there?
Shut up.
You're not even saying, yeah, right.
Oh my gosh.
I looked at all across the country.
It's like 12.
Oh my gosh.
Florida, baby.
Florida, I'm just saying.
Anyway, Cozy Earth can bring you some warmth.
There is nothing quite like Cozy Earth.
Their sheets, their loungewear, their blankets.
My wife said to me yesterday, All I want are more pajamas from Cozy Earth.
And I said, Okay, I mean, I can get you pajamas anywhere.
And she's like, I love, she's giving me instruction.
I love Cozy Earth.
So, in other words, Glenn, you go try to buy anything else, I'm not going to be happy.
That's what I want.
My wife loves Cozy Earth.
I love Cozy Earth.
They've got all of these great fabrics and they've got things from really the cuddle bubble blanket, which is fabulous.
Also, their loungewear, their pajamas, their sheets, everything.

Glenn AI, the answer to Ramahana Quadsmith, the bookend.
Well, the season's here and the lights are bright.
But they tell me I can't say Merry Christmas tonight.
They want Rhyme Hannah Quinn's muscles all in one breath.
Buddy, that phrase is gonna bore me to death.
So grab some cocoa, let's reclaim this bliss.
It's the birthday of the baby.
Yeah, remember who that is.
So I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
No microaggression here, my friend.
If words can break, you will bless your heart.
Cause that's a matter we can't defend.
Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
Let common sense unfold.
Out with the new, in with the old.
Merry Christmas, let the truth be told.
And hey, baby, it's cold outside.
Relax, it's flirting, not a federal crime.
We used to laugh and dance in snow.
Now they fact-check mistletoe.
They say intent don't matter.
Well, sure it does.
That's Shanna.
He's judging hearts, not Twitter buzz.
So I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
You can keep your outrage warm.
If every jingle is problematic, buddy, that's the real snowstorm.
Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
Not buying what they sold.
Out with the new in with the old.
Merry Christmas, let the truth be told.
They say that greeting is oppressive.
Well, bless my soul, who knew if Merry Christmas makes you tremble.
The problem ain't the phrase, it's you.
I'll question with boldness, I'll reason with grace.
But don't rewrite my holiday to make it a safe space.
So here's to the manger, the star in the sky.
The angels who sang of that holy night.
Here's to the story that still brings hope, even when cultures lost the remote.
Raise your voice, let the bells all ring.
This season was always about one king.
Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
Let the real good news unfold.
The world may chase the wrapping paper, but the manger holds the gold.
So I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas from the young to the gray and old.
Out with the new in the old.
Merry Christmas.
Let the truth be told.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program from Glenn AI, putting the Christ back in Christmas.
I have to tell you, I have been experimenting now with GlenAI as it is growing and getting stronger every day.
And I have to tell you what CNN said about it and everything else.
It's crazy.
But I have to tell you, as long as you use AI as a tool and you do not lose yourself to it, it is the greatest tool man has ever come up with.
It really is.
I mean, I'm working on stuff for 2026 right now that I think is going to blow your mind.
I think it'll just blow your mind.
It's blowing my mind.
And we just, we have to know that it is a tool and keep it under control and make sure that it doesn't reflect what we want it when we're talking about truth and history, not reflect what we want it to be, but what it actually is.
So it can help us regain our knowledge and our desire to learn more and more.
Speaking of Christmas, I think the greatest Christmas gift ever given to Stu is Jasmine Crockett running for Senate.
Yes.
I don't think there's anything I could have gotten you for Christmas.
You're welcome, Stu.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
It doesn't get any better than this, Glenn.
You know, all the stuff that's going on and wrong in the world, but my girl is there to rescue all of us and entertain all of us on a day-to-day basis.
The rollout was exquisite.
Everything I could have possibly hoped for.
She's getting other candidates to drop out of the race already.
It is, you know, it is, I'm under, I'm opening presents under a Christmas tree every single morning.
It is, it is.
The top, have you seen her campaign video?
Oh my God, I love it.
Okay.
Her campaign video, the number one response on X is, this is the type of campaign video that only a low IQ person would approve of.
Here's a bit of her.
Please.
Here's her video.
There are a lot of people that said, you got to stay in the house.
We need our voice.
We need you there.
And I understand.
But what we need is for me to have a bigger voice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So that's her.
That's her introducing yesterday.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think we do also have a clip, a clip two of the actual ad.
And it's, I, I, I, I struggle with this for everyone listening on the radio.
And it's, you know, it's my favorite medium.
But at certain times that you, you do need to see the visuals and associate.
Can you read the text?
My screens are so small I can't see them.
Yeah, sure.
Well, let's play it as it goes by.
Go ahead.
How about this new one they have?
Their new star, Crockett.
How about her?
She's the new star of the Democrat Party, Jasmine Kark.
They're in big trouble.
But you have this woman, Crockett.
She's a very low IQ person.
I watched her speak the other day.
She's definitely a low IQ person.
Crockett.
Oh, man.
Oh, man.
She's a very low IQ person.
Wow.
Somebody said the other day, she's one of the leaders of the party.
I said, you got to be kidding.
Now they're going to rely on Crockett.
Crockett's going to bring him back.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my God.
I love it.
I can't even describe.
So you didn't want to interrupt President Trump, but she's just in profile, standing there and listening.
And then she turns and she looks at the camera and she's listening.
And then she folds her arms.
I'm not going anywhere.
And then she smiles.
It's actually, actually, for what she's trying to appeal to, probably pretty smart.
Making herself the number one target of Donald Trump.
That's why I love her so much, because everything, every stupid thing she does is perfectly incentivized by the Democrat Party.
Like they, you know, you can be a Democrat.
You can be slaving away, working on healthcare policy, trying to turn the world around from a 0.9 temperature rise in a century, all the important things they really care about over there.
Right, sure.
And you will never get invited on a show.
You will never sit across from Stephen Colbert.
You will not have Charlemagne the gods speaking your praises on every appearance when he's talking about the Democratic Party.
And you know what?
You know who gets that?
It's her.
Her with absolutely the IQ of a bagel.
She will go out there and she will appear on every one of these shows.
And in each one of them, she will prove once and again that she knows nothing about what she's talking about.
And she will say five impossibly stupid things.
And then she will get off the air and answer the next text for her next booking.
And it is utterly perfect.
She is the perfect encapsulation of the modern Democrat Party.
I love every second of it.
She's so entertaining.
She gives us things to talk about and to laugh about.
She brings joy into my life on a daily basis.
And I love her.
I want to apologize for the bagel comment.
We don't mean to offend Einstein, his bagels, or any of the everything bagels with that comparison.
She's a nothing.
Here's your tax plan.
Can we go to Cut 13?
This is Crockett's tax plan.
Just this past week, I saw, I don't remember which celebrity, but it was actually a celebrity.
And I was like, I don't know that that's not necessarily a bad idea, but I'd have to think through it a lot.
One of the things that they propose is black folk not have to pay taxes for a certain amount of time.
Because then again, that puts money back in your pocket.
But at the same time, it may not be as objectionable to some people about actually giving out dollars.
But obviously, then you start dealing with the different tax brackets and things like that.
And that's one of the reasons that, you know, we argue that reparations make sense because so many black folk, not only do you owe for the labor that was stolen and killed and all the other things, right?
But the fact is, like, they end up being so far behind, right?
And so it's like, how do you bring forth people?
Exactly.
And so it's like, if you, if you do the no tax thing for people that are already, say, struggling and aren't really paying taxes in the first place, it doesn't really.
Exactly.
They may want those guys.
Exactly.
I mean, this is a lunatic.
I can't even, there's no way to state how much I love this person.
Like the fact that she would present that in a campaign in Texas as a legitimate idea that just black people stop paying taxes.
If you put it on a sketch comedy show, like people would die laughing at it.
And she's presenting it as a serious issue and being rewarded from the person she's interviewing who's nodding the entire time as if that's constitutional in any way or possible in any way, or it would be appealing to Texas voters in any way.
Oh, God, she's the best.
So, Stu, she's being interviewed by somebody who doesn't understand that when she talks, she has to move the microphone back towards her mouth.
So it's not.
Glenn, give her a break.
I'm surprised she wasn't even upside down.
I wouldn't have been surprised if the entire interview was done with it not plugged in.
I mean, it's like the fact that you could hear her at all is a miracle.
She's like, oh, yes, I absolutely think that, you know, only tax, tax rates by race has just been proposed in a state like Texas, a red state, you know, that occasionally can produce a relatively close race.
But here's the wonderful thing.
Not with her, not with her in the race.
I don't know who's going to win the primary and the Republican side.
I have preferences there.
But what I will say, it seems to me legitimately impossible that a person with these sorts of crazy ideas could possibly win a state like Texas.
Look at what happened in Canada.
When Donald Trump interjects himself into something, it doesn't matter.
I mean, Canada, the Canadians, they had that thing sewn up.
The conservatives are going to win.
That's true.
And then he said, 50 seconds, you know, you need to be our 51st state.
He was joking.
Then he just kept joking and they didn't take it as a joke.
People hate him so much that that's why her spot, her commercial is so effective, I think, so brilliant.
She doesn't talk.
She doesn't say anything.
There's no policy.
There's nothing.
It's just her being a strong black woman against Donald Trump.
Who's calling her?
The Dark Side of Clickbait00:17:11
In many places.
Yes.
That's all that's required.
Many places, that is all that was required.
One of those places is not Texas.
And that's, I think, the issue here.
In Canada, your baseline is they hate Donald Trump.
And it's, you know, probably 70, 75% of Canadians have a negative view of Donald Trump.
And when, you know, he's not in the race, the people who are maybe left-leaning, but would consider conservatives in Canada if the possibility presents itself that things are going so poorly that they want to switch from a true dough and that sort of arrangement.
That is something where Donald Trump steps in and kind of like slaps the Democrat back into their world where they're like, wait a minute, no, I hate him.
And if he likes the conservative, I don't want that person.
That's very effective in Canada.
And Texas and Texas does not have the same kind of problems that like New York has.
You don't have the same.
Texas is growing.
Jobs, people are moving in.
Housing is expensive, et cetera.
But why is housing expensive?
Notal Trump.
It's not the economy.
It's that California has moved to Texas.
Same thing with Florida.
Why is it so expensive to live?
Because New York has given up on New York and is moving to Florida.
So the jobs are being created.
And so maybe, maybe that will, hopefully that will go the way because otherwise I'm going to have to fire you, Stu.
What do you mean?
Because you're bringing her.
You're bringing her to the table.
If she wins, and I don't think she's going to.
No one's ever going to talk to me again.
Oh, I'm going to hate your yes.
And it will be legitimate.
I will say, I do worry because I think the Democrats had a very similar take on Donald Trump in 2015.
So I will say, I am very nervous about my take here, but I'm being honest with you.
This is just the inner joy shining through.
That's all it is.

Just a few days away from Christmas and the torch debuts at Glendeck.com next January, January 5th.
Earlier, was it this week or last, late last week, I debuted George AI?
Oh, you won't believe the reaction from the mainstream and the left.
I mean, it's incredible what they are willing to do and say to discredit history.
We'll get into that coming up in just a minute.
Also, Andy No joins us.
He's got a new article out, and I think it's really important that he expresses it here on the program.
We'll do that coming up in a minute.
This is Glenn Beck.
All right, let me tell you about Bernalacho.
Otherwise, I don't use a Bernalacho.
I'm just going to tear gas you.
During the holidays, the best gift you can give is protection for your family.
The gifts that will make you feel secure, seen, and cared for.
And there's no greater gift this year than giving the people you love a way to protect themselves in a dangerous situation without having to take a life.
And the Burna Launcher and the Burna Compact Launcher are both non-lethal personal safety devices that fire chemical irritant and Connecticut projectiles using compressed air, meaning that you get real stopping power without having to take a life.
They are now legal in all 50 states.
There is no permit required.
You can give them to anyone from college students to grandparents.
Then that give them the confidence of having options when life gets a little dangerous.
And during the season, built around giving maybe the most meaningful gift of one that says, I want you home safe.
Burna does that.

Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
I want to talk to you about conspiracy theories and how one of them could greatly backfire on the right in a very, very bad way.
We're going to talk about that, and Andy No is going to join me in here in a minute.
First, let me tell you about Pre-Born.
Every Christmas, we're reminded that life doesn't have to be big and powerful to matter.
Sometimes the smallest beginnings carry the greatest hope.
And right now, all across the country, there are women facing an unplanned pregnancy that feel completely alone.
They're unsure.
They're afraid.
They're convinced they have no good options.
Well, this morning, in a clinic somewhere in America, several women are going to walk in and it'll be that critical moment.
And they will, at Pre-Born, offer something that is game-changing, transformational compassion, care, and a chance to see their baby through a life-saving ultrasound.
And that first glimpse, that heartbeat, changes the decisions for so many mothers.
Pre-born funds these ultrasounds, supports these moms, and helps turn fear into confidence at the moment when it matters most.
There are babies in their mother's womb right now who need our help.
As the year comes to a close, your tax-deductible donation can be the difference between life and death.
Would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?
If you have the means, your gift of five or 10 or $15,000 will be used to save countless babies for years to come.
Donate.

So I want to tell you how investigations go.
Okay.
This is how an investigation goes.
Something happens.
And police and federal officials get everybody into a room and they say, all right, what do we know?
What evidence do we have?
What do we know about what just happened?
Is there anything that this evidence is saying it leads to?
Or what could, what should we be looking at?
Is there anything that is off the beaten path that we should look at?
For instance, an inside job, foreign influence.
Is there anything like that?
Then after that conversation, you make a list of all those things and you say, okay, here's the plan.
I want you, you, you to look at that.
I want you, you, and you to look at that.
I want you to go out, everybody, go out, divide this list up, bring back what you can.
If somebody has some evidence that leads us to believe anything, these are correct, get it to me right away.
We'll then direct our resources and focus them some more.
As the investigations move, you find evidence and some ideas are scratched off.
Other ideas are pursued until you have the person.
Let me talk to you about Charlie Kirk.
When Charlie Kirk died, within hours, I received a phone call and I and my team were briefed that I, Tucker Carlson, and Megan Kelly, were possibly on a foreign terrorist hit list and that we might be targets and that we should take all precautions until they could rule this out.
Okay.
That's what happened.
We were targets, possibly, of a foreign hit list.
Take the precautions until we can rule that out.
We understood that.
I called Megan Kelly immediately.
I shared with her.
We started, my security team was working with her to make sure that she was secure.
Tucker was secure.
Everybody is fine.
And they ruled that out.
Within a couple of days, they ruled that out about three days later.
Okay.
I don't think there was a conspiracy.
I think they were being wise and saying there might be something going on.
Until we can rule it out, you guys need to stay safe so we don't have another one of these.
Got it.
I appreciate them thinking of that.
I appreciate them exploring that option.
But once you have that on and you're pursuing that and you have a team pursuing that, when you find that that's not true, you scratch it off.
Once it's scratched off, normal people understand that's an investigation.
That's how it works.
But there's all of these conspiracies now that were on, you know, on the list of things to check that once they were disproven and checked off and like, okay, that's not happening.
It's not that.
Conspiracy people are keeping those things on the list and saying, why didn't they do that?
See, they knew.
They knew, but they're hiding it.
No.
No, that's not the way it works.
That's not the way it works.
And here's what I'm really afraid of.
And Andy No has just written a column that is absolutely dead on.
Conspiracy theories might sabotage justice for Charlie Kirk.
This is the thing I worry about.
Are we going to have justice?
Have we tainted the jury pool so much that you're not going to get anybody to believe anything anymore?
Andy No joins me now.
Andy, thank you so much for coming on.
My pleasure.
Thanks for having me on.
So what caused you to write this?
My frustration with how I'll just be direct.
I think the podcasting space has been praised a lot in recent years because it's opened up discussions for people who have been shut out, ideas that have been shut out.
But I think we're now seeing the dark side that can come with that when kind of anything can go and that clickbait and perhaps financial motives may be at the forefront of the minds of some unethical podcasters.
And in the case of the Charlie Kirk assassination, he was somebody I knew personally.
I know you knew him.
And so it disturbed me to see conspiracy theories go so viral and for people to treat it as if it was just like this is okay to be a sideshow just to have discussions when there's an open investigation and the conspiracy theories that are being propagated are meant to not just ask questions.
This isn't just about asking questions.
It's about actually planting seeds of doubt into people's minds about the integrity of the entire investigation, even though they know very little about it.
And what's worse is impugning the reputations of people that Charlie loved, clearly, with suggestions and innuendos of misconduct or even worse.
So I had to speak out.
I could no longer sit back.
And I spent my entire journalism career writing about the violence of the far left and Antifa.
And I saw that all of the focus that had been on that temporarily after Charlie's murder was nobody was discussing that anymore.
And it's a real threat.
And so the threat of left-wing violence had been completely diverted into nonsense.
I really have to emphasize the nonsense.
All these threads that people think they're polling have led to nothing.
And instead of realizing that they're wrong, they double down and say that lack of evidence is evidence for something else.
And so like this, this can't continue, you know, and the danger of it really is it may be really difficult in a year's time or years' time to find a jury pool that's not tainted by all of these conspiracy theories and lies that have been propagated now for months.
And you're seeing a lot of this.
You know, ex-Elon Musk, I tell you, I don't know if we'd have a country today if it wasn't for what Elon Musk has done to Twitter.
But he started saying, this is where this is coming from.
This is a bot and it's out of Russia or wherever.
And so you're starting to see the foreign influence.
But a lot of these conspiracy theories, they are being hyped up by bots and by foreign actors that do not wish us well.
The Dividing Power of Questions00:11:32
And it doesn't seem like what's happening is, like you, I am not afraid of questions.
I embrace questions.
We should ask honest questions.
And we should not be afraid to ask honest questions.
The problem is, as you said, we're not just asking questions now.
We are now dividing ourselves.
If you don't agree with the question or the answer that they want to provide for that question, then you somehow or another are an enemy that has sold out.
That's extraordinarily dangerous and doesn't seem to be coming from any place good.
I mean, it screams for an actor or somebody who wants to destroy America and the Republic.
Does it not?
Yes, I've been receiving a lot of hate messages since publishing my writing that I've been so-called compromised, that I'm being paid to say these narratives.
And I don't know this is poison that's been put into the minds of the right, like the audiences of the podcast right.
And you can see how it's eating away at this movement.
It's breaking apart this brief moment of unity we had after we came together in unity after the assassination.
And if you give me a moment, I would like to address sort of some of the biggest misconceptions I see about the investigation.
So one, a lot of people think that there's some evidence of a federal conspiracy because a Utah County judge had issued a gag order.
If you read the gag order, and by the way, this is not a federal case.
It's being handled by the state of Utah prosecutors in Utah County, by the way.
So all this focus on feds, this, feds, that, people are misinformed.
The judge, Judge Tony Graff, had issued a gag order on witnesses who had been identified in the case, investigators, counsel, obviously, from making extrajudicial statements because he wants to keep control of the case from it turning into a whole circus.
Like, do people not remember what happened in the case of Derek Chauvin, the officer in Minneapolis who was accused of killing George Floyd?
Like, there was no gag order on that.
And that was a complete, I do not think that that trial was fair given that level of media saturation and how out of hand it got.
And so this judge was really wise to put this gag order on.
You can't have investigators or potential witnesses going out to media and making a whole bunch of comments that would bias one party or the other in an ongoing case.
Another misconception is people are saying, why aren't the FBI releasing more information?
Why haven't they since September?
Well, a suspect was in custody within less than 48 hours of the murder.
And it's in the pre-trial phase now.
And the process leading up to the trial and the trial itself is sacred.
And I think our civic education in the United States has really failed the public.
They don't seem to understand that.
They think that the evidence should be released as soon as it comes out.
Everything and anything can come out.
No, like investigators don't release that because this type of stuff goes to the accused side and then of course to the prosecutors.
And you keep that evidence preserved so that it's not going to push the public in one way or the other to be biased in any particular way.
And so there's just ignorance, I would say, about how criminal investigations and the criminal justice system works in the U.S.
And there are podcasters who are really exploiting that and thinking that there's something there when there's nothing for a number of accusations that they've lobbied.
Andy, you're not for, I mean, I hope that this trial, when it comes, is put on television.
I think the people have a right to see the trial.
We don't need, we don't have a right to see everything leading up to the trial, but we do have a right to see the trial, like we did with O.J. Simpson.
Would you agree with that?
I think given the public interest, the international interest in this case, that it's for the best for it to be reported so that the public can see.
Otherwise, only a very, very small number of people who can make it physically inside the courtroom.
And I don't think that that would be for the interest of justice, in my opinion.
No.
And it wouldn't be healthy for the Republic.
We must be transparent in everything we can be.
But when it comes to the trial, that should be completely transparent because that is how our system works.
That's the verified information on both sides.
And we should be able to judge that one way or another.
And I personally think that's critical.
And I hope that Utah is making the decision or will make the decision to make sure that that is seen by everybody.
But I stand with you, Andy.
I mean, I've heard so many things about me lately, about how I've just taken money from Jews, which is crazy.
I wish I knew where all that money was going because, yeah, I'd like to spend it, especially around Christmas time.
But it's amazing to me how I was on the list possibly for foreign, you know, if there was any foreign terrorist, except they're making the case that it was the foreign terrorists were actually Israel.
Why would they kill somebody who they were supposedly paying?
It makes no, I mean, it takes two seconds of logic and realize, okay, well, that was a theory and that just didn't work out.
That's not true.
None of that is true.
Andy, what do you think needs to be done from here?
What do people like you, me, and others need to do?
Podcasters, I think, have a responsibility to be ethical in their work.
I mean, the reason why new media, why there's been so much support for it when it became a thing that emerged, is we saw the deficiencies in legacy media or mainstream media.
And I just asked, like, what's the point of independent or new media if the content that is being produced by those very powerful voices is slop and junk?
Like this whole space exists because we want better content that is more informative, accurate, and honest.
But you're not calling for a ban of anyone, are you?
No, I'm not.
I'm calling for people to recognize that there's that responsibility really matters.
And I'm concerned that those people who are fully independent, who are not accountable to any editors, are not center ethics at the forefront of their works.
That really has to sort of exist as a personal on a personal level.
And it's how I conduct my work.
I'm independent.
And I think older podcasters who are wiser, have experience, knowledge about how the criminal justice system can work can hopefully try to inform the public about this is a really slow and long process.
And it's not going to be like a true crime new episode every week where here's the latest updates.
And people have been watching so much TV that they have that expectation.
I know.
I know.
Andy, that's why I had you on today because I wanted to make sure people heard this because your article is spot on.
Conspiracy theories might sabotage justice for Charlie Kirk.
Andy No is the journalist.
He is also the author of Unmasked Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy.
It's a fantastic book.
Everybody should read it.
Andy, I thank you for all of your hard work over the years.

10 seconds back to the show isn't it amazing how this is why i think evil showed up I mean, God showed up after the Charlie Kirk murder and an equal opposite reaction to God showing up.
I think evil showed up.
And it's amazing how we're not talking about the left.
We're not talking about the, you know, the transgender markings on the bullets and the guns and everything else.
We're not talking about this kid anymore.
He's, no, no, no.
He's innocent.
He's innocent.
It's the Jews that did it with Charlie Kirk's wife involved.
I mean, it's obscene what is being said.
And if we're not careful, we won't be able to have a jury that will be able to judge this thing on the facts.
And maybe that's the point all along.
I don't know.
Which would just cause us more distrust in our system.
Yippee.

Not buying what they sold.
Out with the new rule.
In with the old rules, Merry Christmas, let the truth be told.
They say that greeting is oppressive.
Well, bless my soul, who knew if Merry Christmas makes you tremble.
The problem ain't the phrase, it's you.
I'll question with boldness, I'll reason with grace.
But don't rewrite my holiday to make it a safe space.
So here's to the major, the star in the sky.
The angels who sang of that holy night.
Here's to the story that still brings hope, even when cultures lost the remote.
Raise your voice, let the bells all ring.
This season was always about one king.
Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.
Let the real good news unfold.
The world may chase the wrapping paper, but the manger holds the gold.
So I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas from the young to the gray and old.
Out with the new in with the old.
Merry Christmas, let the truth be told.
Kind of the first offering from Glenn AI and putting the Christ back in Christmas.
Last week, was it last week I introduced you to George AI?
George AI Echoes Beck's Truth00:11:39
Now, what George AI is a proprietary AI system that has a giant electric fence around it.
It has everything that the founders from our collection, it will grow from here, but from our collection, it has the writings, the documents, the journals, the books that were written at the time, the books that they read that they said influenced them, the Federalist papers, all of this stuff, all in one proprietary AI system.
And it can't go out and look for other things.
It also must memorize everything.
Unlike an AI that can hallucinate, they hallucinate because AI is very good at remembering the beginning and the ending, but it's not good at the middle.
And so it'll look at the beginning and the ending and like, yeah, and it kind of like went like that.
No, it didn't go like that.
Stop being lazy.
But ours memorizes every word word for word.
And it can give you the words from the founders in their own language, which sounds really mechanical and reads, it's really hard to read.
Or it can, you know, dumb it down to my level or your level or your kids' level.
And it can speak at our level, but it cannot change their words or their meaning.
We police this like crazy, and we are not releasing it wide open to the public until we have lots of beta testing because we want to make sure we have caught everything because the last thing we want is anything that is anybody's opinion except for theirs.
You'd be able to put in a bill and say, is this constitutional?
Where does this violate the founding principles?
And it'll tell you.
You put in a story and say, what are the principles that we lost that are causing this?
You can put in, like we talked about today, there was a story about the case that is in front of the Supreme Court right now about having some sort of expert running the administration and the president and Congress can't fire them.
Well, I know the answer to this, but I asked George AI.
I put the story in and I said, what did the founders say about things like this?
And I asked specifically about the Federalist Papers and it said, while it doesn't specifically talk about this, it does say X, Y, and Z.
And as I explained earlier on the show, I mean, it might as well be explicit because it's talking about exactly the same thing.
But that's what it does.
Now, I released an interview that I did with George.
Okay.
And it's so funny, the reaction, because Adam Kinzinger has just said, this is the stupidest thing I've ever seen.
And I was in Congress for 12 years.
Oh, well, Adam.
Oh, okay.
Well, I'm going to listen to you.
Right-wing watch, which I think is Soros-funded.
Oh, good.
Glenn Beck has created an AI George Washington.
You'll be shocked to learn that the AI George Washington created by Glenn Beck sounds exactly like what would happen if Glenn Beck built an AI George Washington to sound exactly like Glenn Beck.
Impossible.
It's not speaking my words.
It's only speaking their words.
It's impossible.
It has no information about me at all.
There is no, it is a firewall between Glenn AI and George AI.
There is a firewall.
It has no outside information.
It does not know who I am.
It doesn't care who I am.
It is only focused on their words.
Let me play, if we can, can we play a little bit of what I played the actual George AI?
And I just want you to, I want to ask yourself, because CNN, in fact, play the CNN clip.
CNN led with this last night.
Play that, if you will.
The greatest danger to our republic lies not in foreign arms or political faction, but in magistrates.
Okay.
Wow.
That is Glenn Beck interviewing an AI version of George Washington, if you couldn't tell, who's apparently ripped now wearing a tight t-shirt.
And he echoes Beck's beliefs.
So for tonight's news nightcap.
Stop.
He echoes Beck's beliefs.
So you cannot say that this is accurate because then you would have to say, I was right, that I am interpreting the founders in the correct way.
So you have to say, there's something wrong with this AI.
You know nothing about it.
There's something wrong with this AI.
It can't be doing that.
This is just echoing Beck's beliefs.
No, it's impossible for that to happen.
But they're making this into, I mean, the tags on this are right-wing extremists.
George Washington extremism.
Play the actual George AI clip and tell me what's extremist about anything that he is saying here.
George, we have programmed a lot of information and given you a lot of information on what's going on in today's America.
Based on your writings and the writings of the rest of the founders, what is it that you feel is the biggest problem or where we should start to fix things?
If I may, speak plainly.
My countrymen, the danger, the greatest danger to our republic lies not in foreign arms or political faction, but in magic.
Could you just dumb it down just a little bit?
Okay.
I do have 29 points, and they're all referenced to exactly what we said in the first place.
Speak in today's language.
Okay, okay.
I get it.
Let me speak to Americans.
If I'm honest, America's biggest problem isn't political or economic.
It's on moral.
You've drifted from the virtues that make liberty possible in the first place.
Freedom.
To be free, you have to have discipline.
You have to have faith.
You have to have character.
And if you don't have any of those things, laws, laws can't stop anything.
They mean little.
Government turns either weak or oppressive.
You have grown skeptical of truth.
You're reckless with debt.
You're comfortable blaming instead of building anything.
And in my time, we've understood that self-governance begins with self-control.
Do you even recognize what self-control is?
Public virtue matters more than public opinion.
You keep electing these people expecting things to change, but you haven't changed.
The fix is not going to be found in Washington, D.C.
It's going to be found in every home, every school, every heart.
Now, where are the citizens who value duty over comfort, principle over popularity?
America was built to be a moral and self-governing nation.
It's only that foundation that will still save her.
Okay, so how is that?
Yes, it does sound like me.
Yes, it does sound like me.
You know why?
Because I sound like the founders.
That's why I didn't, I didn't, I wish I could say I made all this stuff up.
I wish I could say I'm that brilliant.
That, yep, the Constitution and the founding documents, they all sound like me once you dumb them down.
No, no, I had to work through them and I dumbed them down so I could understand them.
I've been saying them my whole life, and that's why he sounds like me because I sound like him.
But the thing is, it's being labeled as extremism.
That we're supposed to be moral.
We have to have discipline, faith, character.
Is that extreme?
That our laws won't mean anything because nothing can hold it together if we're not those things.
Government will either become too weak or too oppressive.
What do you disagree on that?
How do you disagree with that?
Are we currently worried that we'll become too weak?
Or are we currently worried that we're going to become oppressive?
I mean, either way, that's extreme because that's your view in the media that Donald Trump is becoming oppressive, right?
That we're growing skeptical of truth.
How does anyone in the media think that that's Glenn Beck or that's, you know, that's some extreme thing?
Yeah, you know it.
You know we're skeptical of the truth.
You're the ones telling it to us and you're the ones with a dying rating.
So that's clearer.
You can't admit that America, agree or disagree, America is skeptical of truth, that we're reckless with debt, that we will not, we point fingers to blame, we won't take any personal responsibility for anything.
We won't self-govern.
We have no self-control, that we look for opinion over virtue, that the answer won't be found in DC, and that nothing will change unless we change.
Wow, that's so unbelievably extreme, isn't it?
Let me tell you why there's this thing going around now.
I mean, I've released three minutes of George AI.
Three, three.
Oh, wait.
Wait until next year.
Wait until by this time next year, wait until you see this thing open up full throttle.
They are going to wet their pants.
So they know, they know exactly what I'm doing.
They know they must discredit it because they know the power of AI because they've been using AI to lie to you, to manipulate you, to use algorithms to do all of that stuff.
I'm not using any of those.
I'm not pushing this out hoping that anybody will do anything with an algorithm.
I want you to find it.
I'm inviting you to ask him yourself.
When you ask him, you can say, what are all the footnotes?
Do you notice the part they cut out in CNN?
He says, I have 26 points and they're all documented to what we said.
Yeah, they had to cut that out because I'm providing that every time.
Every time you'll be on George AI, every time we give you, we'll show you the documents and where it comes from.
They can't do that.
They rely on opinion.
George AI relies on documented fact.
And I can't wait for you to be a part of it.
Next year, January 5th, it'll make their eyes bleed.
And that gives me, that's, you know, blood is red.
Their eyes, you know, the white and the red is like a candy cane.
It makes me think of Christmas at this time.
George AI vs. Rough Greens00:02:21
All right, let me tell you about rough greens.
That was wrong.
That was extreme, wasn't it?
Every pet owner knows the look, that moment when your dog stares at the same kibble that they've been eating for years and they look at it and they're like, really?
And they sniff and they're like, come on, man, really?
And you can't blame them.
I mean, dry kibble is a shelf stable, has to be able to be on a shelf and nothing goes wrong with it for two years.
You would never feed anything like that to your kids as a steady diet.
You wouldn't.
You'd know, instinctively, you know, that's bad.
So what do you do?
Stop feeding them kibble?
Well, you can.
You know, you can make their dinner and probably be good for them, but rough greens fixes all of this.
Rough greens is a nutritional supplement that you sprinkle on top of your dog's food, no matter what you're feeding them.
It adds back in the vitamins, the minerals, the probiotics, the antioxidants that, you know, the real living food should have all of this stuff.
And the difference for a lot of dogs is night and day, more energy, healthier digestion, better coat, better mood.
I mean, I saw it in Uno.
It's crazy.
It takes something that your dog tolerates and turns it into something that they're actually Uno hated eating.
We started using rough greens and he'd race to the bowl.
