Glenn Beck debunks the media's narrative on Alex Predi, citing new footage of him kicking an ICE vehicle and spitting at officers to expose a "lie of omission" that strips individuals of agency. He argues this selective reporting teaches crowds that provocation is invisible while acknowledging the shooting remains unjustified. The episode also lists nine 2026 deaths involving ICE, noting most were suicides or medical events rather than homicides, and critiques double standards in covering attacks on conservative figures versus Elissa Slotkin's investigations.

You ever notice how easy it is to cancel a streaming service, but how hard it is, you know, to actually change anything that actually matters?
It's because we get used to your routines.
The same stores, the same bills, the same companies.
Even when we know some of these companies are funding things we don't believe in, we tell ourselves, ah, it's just the way it is, right?
But it doesn't have to be.
Patriot Mobile exists because a lot of people were tired of feeling like their money was working against their own values.
And so they built a wireless company that offers reliable nationwide coverage, but runs on Christian conservative principles.
So instead of your monthly bill funding nonsense, it helps first responders and veterans and parental rights and religious freedoms, the kind of thing that a lot of us care about, but we don't see represented in big corporate decisions.
The surprising part is the Switch is not hard.

And now let's get to work.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
It is Thursday, January 29th of 26th.
Intent and Rage Explained00:03:09
There's a lot going on.
Tom Holman just spoke a few minutes ago about the situation in Minneapolis.
I got a lot to say about the peaceful legal observer, the innocent man, the greatest guy ever, no threat, end of story.
The lies that the media has said, it's now verified video.
And we're going to talk about that.
He's clearly not peaceful.
He was there with intent and rage.
Honest to God, rage.
And I'll explain that coming up in just a minute.
Also, the raid on election headquarters, a topic we need to touch today.
Elon O'Mar, she was sprayed with a vicious, vicious, vicious substance.
Smelled weird.
And we'll explain what it was coming up in a minute.
So if this show were an early warning system, you know, not a news desk, not a panic room, but just a system of, you know, like a panel that you would see in, you know, a control room, some lights would be flashing.
And I want to start there on what the flashing lights are as an early warning system.
We'll give you that to you in just 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about American financing.
You know how people talk about finding money in their budget, like, you know, it's some sort of hidden treasure map.
You know, cut coffee, cancel streaming, you know, skip dinner out.
Sure, those things do add up.
It could add up a lot.
But sometimes real money is sitting in one place you haven't looked at in years, and that is your mortgage.
A lot of people get locked into a loan and then never ever revisit it.
Life changes, rates change, your financial goals change, but that payment just keeps going out the same way every single month for 30 years.
That's where American Financing can make a real difference.
They help homeowners look at their current mortgage and see if there's a smarter way to restructure it.
Maybe lowering your rate or consolidating high interest debt or adjusting your term to fit your life a little better now.
They're not salary.
They're salaried.
They're not people that are getting commissions.
They're not commission-driven salespeople.
So the conversation is about what actually helps you, not what earns them the most amount of money.
Sometimes financial progress comes from reworking what you're doing and turning a big monthly expense into something that works in your favor.
No upfront fees.
Just call them, see if they can help you.
It's AmericanFinancing.net, AmericanFinancing.net, or 800-906-2440.

APR for Rits in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.
Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
So, you know, really good shows, really good podcasts will tell you what happened yesterday.
And there's a lot of those, and they'll give you an opinion.
I personally think the world has enough opinions, and you certainly don't need mine.
I think my job really needs to be as somebody who can see slightly over the horizon and show you what these things mean, what's happening, what happened yesterday, what they mean to you today.
Warning Signs and Red Lights00:13:00
More importantly, what does this mean if these things continue to go in the direction that they're going?
So we cannot ignore these warning signs and look at them through history and through common sense.
So if we were an early warning system, there would be some lights on the panel that are flashing today.
Some would be red, some would be yellow, and some would actually be green.
So let me just go through all of these things because it matters.
Not everything would be red, you know, but panic is what you feel after you have ignored the warnings or you didn't know that was a warning.
You didn't hear about it.
So let me read the panel for you honestly here.
There's some red lights flashing today that you need to know.
And these are not political opinions.
They are historic danger signs.
I've checked these back and forth with history because I'm looking at history now and saying, where are we?
You know, in Rome or in France, where are we in history?
One of the biggest warning signs that I see right now is red light number one, and that would be the loss of nuance.
This one is blinking really hard, and you see it in the Pretty conversation.
There is no nuance here.
There is, you know, a healthy society can hold two ideas at the same time.
An unstable society cannot do that.
And right now we're losing the ability to say somebody can be really guilty and a bad guy and mistreated.
Law enforcement can be necessary, needed, doing their job and fallible.
Protests can be legitimate and infiltrated by insurrectionists.
Those things are all true.
But America can't see that anymore.
And that's when, you know, when everything collapses into all good or all evil, there is no moral clarity anymore.
That's moral laziness.
Rome didn't fall when people disagreed.
America has never falled when we disagree.
Rome and America will fall when disagreement becomes identity warfare.
That light is bright, bright red in America.
Warning sign, red light number one.
Red light number two, faction over truth.
Truth, you know, you know what the name Israel means?
The name Israel means to wrestle with God.
Now, how could Israel be the chosen people if they wrestle?
Their name says wrestle with God.
Because truth is meant to be wrestled with.
It's meant to be argued about, wrestled with, thought about, argued about.
Tearing it apart, tearing yourself apart at night.
The only way I am who I am, the only reason why I know who I am is because I wrestled with everything in me.
I tore myself apart.
What is it I really believe?
What is worth living for?
What's worth dying for?
What's worth arguing about?
What's not?
What's true?
But now, truth is something we argue for like a team.
And facts no longer persuade.
All they do now is signal allegiance.
That's really dangerous.
That's a late stage indicator.
Once truth bends to faction, power then replaces persuasion every time in every civilization in all of history.
And that light is flashing red.
All of these things are coming in Minnesota.
Red light number three, organized disorder.
Not protest.
Protest is needed.
Protest is important.
Protest is constitutionally protected.
No matter what anybody says, everyone has a right to go out and protest what ICE is doing.
Everyone has a right to go out and protest what some of these judges are doing by not enforcing what some of these cities are doing by saying you're a sanctuary city.
You have a right to protest.
You have a right to protest the law.
You have a right, but you don't have a right to disrupt the law.
You have a right to go protest the people who make the law to get them to change the law.
You have a right to go and stand peacefully and protest the cops, if that's what you want, or ICE, but you do not have the right to engage and disrupt the law.
When unrest becomes coordinated, when it becomes professionally funded, strategically disruptive, and shielded by moral confusion, because there's no morality here.
It's moral confusion.
That's no longer a spontaneous civic expression.
It's not.
That is pressure being applied to the system.
Rome faced this.
Internal destabilization.
It was justified as the will of the people.
Red light, red light, red light, red light.
Pay attention, America.
Red light.
Now, there's some other things that are flashing I want to go through that are yellow lights, and they're serious, but they're not fatal at this point.
These are warnings, not verdicts.
Yellow light number one, currency confidence.
Gold is rising.
And the way gold is rising, it's not a collapse announcement.
It is a stress gauge.
It is a very important.
Do you know what gold is up to today?
It is trading now today, at least a few minutes before I went on the air.
Futures were trading at as high as $5,600 an ounce.
It was $4,900 an ounce on Friday.
I'll give you some historic comparisons of this here in a few minutes.
It's not good.
Now, gold doesn't predict dates.
All that gold does is reflect trust or the lack of it.
And when people begin to move towards hard assets, what they're saying is, I'm not sure any of these promises hold.
Well, what promises are those?
Promises of we're a stable society.
We are not going to spend ourself into oblivion, that our government and our Congress gets it, and they're going to stop spending so much and borrowing so much.
They no longer believe that NATO can hold the world together.
America can hold the world together.
They know things are beginning to get really dicey.
It's a yellow light and it is trending hotter every day.
Pay attention to that.
Now, yellow light number two.
This goes along with yellow light number one, debt saturation.
Debt isn't immoral, but debt that can't be discussed honestly and paid back is immoral and it's dangerous.
When a nation stops saying, how are we going to pay this bill?
When the nation says, who's going to pay this bill?
Who bears the burden of this bill?
Or they stop asking, what happens if confidence breaks?
That's what's happening with gold.
What happens if people start to believe we're not going to pay this back?
That's when debt becomes corrosive and deadly.
Now, we're not Rome yet, but this gauge is rising.
Yellow light number three, institutional distrust.
This goes with the red lights I gave you and the yellow lights.
Not skepticism, but distrust.
Skepticism is healthy.
Skepticism is the American system.
What are the first five rights in the First Amendment?
You have a right to freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of press, freedom of assembly, meaning you can go and assemble in the streets, and freedom of petition.
You can petition your government.
I want answers.
So skepticism is our First Amendment and it's healthy.
Distrust is paralyzing.
When people believe the courts are illegitimate, that it doesn't matter.
You have to be connected.
You have to be on one side or the other.
If they believe elections are meaningless, law enforcement is either sacred and can make no mistakes or evil and can do no good.
The system loses its elasticity, its ability to stretch and bend the way it has to.
That's yellow, not red, but close enough to pay attention because it's getting deeper yellow.
Before I break, there are some green lights.
Let me give you that because these matter more than most people think because the green lights are important.
Green light number one, these are good things.
We're still arguing about right and wrong.
We're still having those debates.
Collapsing societies stop arguing about morality.
They argue only about power.
And we're still arguing about justice and what it means, limits, rights, responsibility.
That's not decay.
That's conscience.
It's still alive.
That's a green light.
That's a good light.
Green light number two.
The Constitution still exists.
And it's still being cited.
Rome ruled by decree.
We're still fighting over the documents.
It's getting a little sketchy, but we're still arguing it.
And that tells you something powerful.
People still believe rules matter, even when they break them.
It's green, but it's fragile.
Green light number three.
I'm able to get on the air and speak to you about these warnings.
MSNBC is able to get on the air and speak to you about what they see as warning signs.
Rome silenced its warnings.
We are today still able to have them on the air legally.
Both sides.
That alone means this system is not finished.
Early warning signs only matter before the catastrophe.
And here's the most important thing to remember.
Red lights do not mean doom.
They mean choice.
Make a choice.
Civilizations don't collapse because warnings exist.
They collapse because warnings are mocked, politicized, or ignored.
So the question is, not are we Rome.
The question is, will we do what Rome didn't do and respond to the warning signs while the lights are still on?
Because once the panel goes dark, there are no more warnings.
Pay attention to the warning signs today.
All right.
I want to talk to you a little bit about gold.
Then we're going to get into Minnesota.
We'll continue in 60 seconds.
First, Rough Greens.
Dogs trust us completely.
There's no warning sign with your dog, man.
You put a bowl down.
They don't question it.
They don't read the labels.
They don't ask where the ingredients came from.
They just figure, my human has got this.
And most of us think we do.
We buy good brand of kibble and we fill the bowl up full.
And we assume that's the whole story.
But here's the thing.
Dry kibble is cooked at high temperatures to make it shelf stable.
That is, this is processed food.
You know how bad processed food is for us.
Our dogs, man, you think it's better for the dog?
They need real food, and that's why rough greens exist.
This is not a new food.
It is a powder that you sprinkle right on top of the food, which gives your dog, whatever they're already eating, the probiotics, the omegas, the digestive enzymes, the vitamins and minerals that will help support your dog.
And I'm telling you, it changed Uno.
You will see it almost right away.

The Yen Carry Trade Breaks00:04:03
Okay.
I got a lot to cover here.
Buckle up.
Here we go.
Gold, spot gold is today anywhere between $5,300 and $5,530, an ounce.
Gold futures are trading at 5,500 to 5,600 in sessions.
So you have some idea.
Gold's price has grown nearly three times in just three years.
That is a pace that historically to do what it's just done would take four decades at normal rates.
It would have taken 40 years to do what it is done in three years.
Gold is not twice as what it was.
It's nearly five times what it was four years ago.
That's because a few things are happening.
And I tried to explain this the other day, and I think I did a really poor job.
So I want to try one more stab at it because this is important.
This is one of the red flashing lights on the warning table that you really need to look at and understand.
For decades, Japan lived in a really strange artificial calm.
After the asset bubble, remember when they owned everything in the 90s and everybody's like, we're being taken over by Japan.
Japan crashed.
It had a bubble.
And then they did something no other major country had ever done at scale.
They were the first to freeze interest rates at or near zero.
And then they borrowed enormous amounts of money.
Its central bank, the Bank of Japan, began buying its own government debt.
And the idea was really simple.
If we just keep money cheap forever, nothing breaks.
We can just keep printing.
I mean, it's insane, but it worked for a while.
For a long time, it looked like Japan might be right.
Then came part two.
Then people started realizing, wait a minute, I can profit off of this.
And something became what's called the yen carry trade.
And it's basically Japan became the world's credit card.
Okay.
And here's the thing that most people miss.
Japan became the cheapest place on earth to borrow large sums of money.
So large global investors borrowed a yen at almost 0% interest.
They converted the yen into U.S. dollars.
And then they went out to our stock market and bought stocks and bonds and real estate here in America, anything that would have a yield over zero and everything had a yield over zero.
And then they would pocket the difference.
That's called the yen carry trade.
And the entire world was doing it.
Okay.
A simple analogy here is that Japan is the friend who said, you can borrow as much as you want.
Don't worry about interest.
Take your time, pay me back.
No big deal.
The entire global financial system was like, okay.
And America benefited enormously because the cheap foreign money flowed into U.S. assets.
U.S. borrowing costs stayed lower than they would have.
Markets were calmer than really they deserved.
Japan was basically the shock absorber for the entire world.
Why is it now a house of cards?
Because this only works if three things never change.
Japan's interest rates stay near zero.
The yen stays weak but stable.
And investors believe Japan can always print its way out.
But history says, no, none of that is true.
Okay, none of that is true.
None of this will last forever.
So Japan now has to make a choice.
They have one of the highest debt to GDP ratios in history.
They have an aging population, rising inflation it can't ignore, currency that's been bleeding value, and eventually lenders start saying, if this is so safe, why does it need life support?
Japan's House of Cards00:15:21
Now we're at the point where things are starting to break.
And let me tell you what's happening right now and why this matters to you in just a few seconds.
by for that all right my patriots supplied so So it feels like every day there's something new to worry about.
I mean, we're going to have temperatures in the 40s here in Florida.
I mean, what?
What's up with that?
They're having a snowpocalypse in New York.
Yeah, I saw that face, Stu.
I saw it.
Yeah, complain about Florida weather.
Keep going.
It's fun.
There are headlines after headlines now that you're like, okay, what?
Now, what?
What?
What's coming our way?
Look, you can't fix global politics from your kitchen table.
You can't control the weather, but you can prepare for whatever comes your way.
When it comes to your family's food security, I trust my Patriot supply.
They specialize in long-term food storage designed for emergencies, meals with long shelf life that are already ready when you need them.
Not just when the stores are open or have packed shelves.
They've helped millions of Americans get prepared.
90,000 five-star reviews.
A lot of families have already decided this is a step worth taking.
Would you just go there right now?
Best-selling three-month emergency food supply is $100 off.
It's my Patriot supply.
They almost never offer deals like this.

I'm going to get to what's happening in Minnesota here in just a minute, but I think this is much more important long-term use.
You need to pay attention because this one will affect you and your dollar and your life and everything else just as much as any kind of civil war will.
There is something going on when gold, you know, when gold has gone up almost $1,000 in the last five or six days.
That's astronomical.
It's just, it doesn't happen this way.
Okay.
And I want to talk to you about the delivery of gold.
And Stu is just telling me off the air.
I'm going to get back to Japan here and why this is all happening, but Stu and I were just talking off the air that he's seeing people saying, you know, you shouldn't buy real gold.
You should buy paper gold.
Let me explain why you're starting to see that because I think that's bull crap.
But, you know, hear me out.
Gold and silver normally is sold through the paper contracts.
Okay.
And they can promise to deliver at a later date and you can take delivery.
Most people don't take delivery of it.
They just want the paper.
Okay.
And that is normal when you're living in normal times.
But when you're not, when you're saying, you know, I don't know if I trust anything anymore.
You start to say, I think I want that gold or silver delivered.
Okay.
And when that happens, you know, they start to deliver it.
And there are certain months out of the year that are big delivery months.
Okay.
January is not a big delivery month.
Let's just, let's talk about it for silver for a second.
Silver in January in, you know, historically speaking, January's past.
It's not uncommon to see a million ounces of silver delivered or 2 million ounces, sometimes less.
But, you know, it can be around that.
Okay.
January is typically quiet.
This is not where stress usually shows up.
And yet, this January, this month, on the books to be delivered by the end of the month, 40 million ounces.
40.
Typical is one or two.
We're at 40 million, and this is way abnormal.
Okay, this is not the way it works.
This is not a delivery month, okay?
And when delivery is demanded in months where it's not normally like this, where it's way off the record, what does it mean for a delivery month, a standard delivery month?
And that standard delivery month is March.
And so now they're starting to look at March because what is going to happen to the inventory?
You know, normally in March, it can begin with 30, 20 to 30 million ounces.
And the system can absorb that easily and nothing happens.
40 or 50 million ounces and the system starts to stress a little bit.
I don't, you know, we can do it, but it's stressful.
70 to 80 million ounces, and that's when they start saying, we have a problem with inventory.
I'm not sure we're going to make 80 million ounces.
Ready for delivery, or people that are saying, I want delivery in March.
They bought their contract.
They want delivery in March.
They are now looking at a delivery today, in March, of 110 to 120 million ounces of silver.
Earth shattering.
Something's very wrong.
Okay.
So what is happening?
Let me go back to the moment that we're at now where things are starting to break in Japan because this is really important.
Investors now, because Japan is under such stress, Japan investors are selling their government bonds.
When the bond prices fall, that means Japan has to raise interest rates to attract new people to invest in Japan.
So Japan, the Bank of Japan, has to choose now.
Do we print more money to defend the system or do we let the rates rise and expose the gigantic debt problem?
Either choice is really painful.
This is the moment of confidence.
Not math.
Confidence.
Confidence becomes the issue here.
Now, we helped prop this country up.
And this is the uncomfortable truth, but it is true.
The United States benefited from Japan staying frozen in place.
And Japan began buying a bunch of U.S. debt, helped fund the American deficits.
They were borrowing their own money, changing it into dollars, buying ours because they could get interest, and that would help, you know, help them.
But it also helped us.
It helped keep our markets liquid.
A stable Japan meant fewer shocks to the global system and to us here in America.
And it's not a conspiracy.
It was just mutual convenience and everybody was doing it.
America was not pushing Japan to normalize because cheap global money felt really good to everybody.
Now enter something called the bond vigilantes.
Bond vigilantes sound scary and they are, but they're also kind of needed and responsible.
This is where bond vigilantes finally walk onto the stage.
They're not activists.
They're not politicians.
They are just big lenders who say, yeah, you know, I don't believe your promises deserve cheap money anymore.
And they don't yell.
They just sell.
And when investors, big investors sell, governments like Japan have to pay higher interest rates.
Debt becomes harder to manage.
Control quietly shifts from politicians to markets.
Japan is seeing now the first signs of this discipline returning.
Ken Griffin just called Japan a massive wake-up call for the U.S. Not because Japan is collapsing, but because the markets are remembering how to say, no, I don't think so.
This affects us because Japan holds most of our debt.
So this has happened before.
Britain, this happened in the 1970s and what happened in the 1970s was not good.
Britain in the 70s, Southern Europe, Greece, remember that in 2008 when Greece was on fire?
Emerging markets, it happens over and over.
And the pattern is always exactly the same.
Debt feels manageable.
Central banks suppress reality.
Investors start to go, I'm not sure.
Interest rates spike.
Governments lose freedom of action.
And government is the Japanese government is in that process right now.
But early is when warnings matter.
One sentence to remember here.
Japan is not the problem.
Japan is the preview.
Let me show you what the show looks like.
The show is when the referee comes back onto the field.
For 15 years, 20 years, global economy ran without a referee.
Interest rates were suppressed.
Gold suppressed.
Debt piled up.
Central banks said, we got this.
We got it.
We all knew they didn't, but we all looked the other way.
And there was no ref on the field.
Japan showed us the first crack that markets are no longer convinced that this is going to work.
Camera panned the main stage, the United States.
Not because America is weak, but because America is central to the globe.
Act one.
Bond vigilantes.
What do they actually do in the real world?
When lenders start to lose confidence, they do three things and they do it in order.
They, one, demand higher interest rates.
They shorten how long they'll lend.
And eventually, I mean, unless everybody is, you know, changing their behavior, they stop lending.
Again, unless people change their behavior or governments force them.
No drama, no ideology, just math plus trust.
Trust.
Trust.
This is the word you must understand.
All trust in everything, including your word, including in what the truth is.
All trust is going to go away.
It is going to become so rare, it would be much more valuable than any gold.
Remember the rule of history.
The most powerful country is the one that can borrow the cheapest.
Act two.
This is the likely path.
This is the most probable outcome here.
Here's what happens.
U.S. Treasury yields are going to go higher.
It means it's going to be harder for us to pay the debt.
Government interest payments are going to crowd some of our things.
Donald Trump was out on the road with his new savings plan yesterday.
And at least somebody's doing something because you're going to start seeing we cannot afford these programs.
And the markets are going to become jumpy.
And every crisis will cost us more to solve than the last one.
Nothing collapses, nothing explodes, but everything costs more and everything feels tighter.
This is Rome before the fall.
Still very powerful, still dominant, but spending more to defend less every year.
Britain in World War II, still an empire in paper, but debt quietly just dictated everything that they did.
This is the world where America remains the safest house.
The house is more expensive to live in, but we still have a house.
Act three, the bad ending, okay?
The discipline shock.
This is the ending that Ken Griffin is warning about right now.
He's not predicting, he's warning.
And here's what triggers it.
A recession plus massive deficits.
Any kind of geopolitical shock, like a war, a civil war, civil unrest in America.
or a moment where the markets realize there is no plan to stop borrowing.
This is just going to keep going.
I got to get my money out of this.
Suddenly, the rates will spike fast, not slowly.
Bonds and stock fall together.
The dollar stays dominant, but no longer forgiving.
And it feels like not the Great Depression.
Think 1970s America, not an apocalypse.
Inflation comes roaring back.
Real wages get crushed.
Political extremism rises.
Trust in institutions collapse.
This is the ending where markets are running the policy.
Politicians are only reacting.
The public is just paying the bills and that's it.
Okay.
Let me give you one green light.
A good ending.
Because this ending is possible.
Not likely, but possible, because it requires courage.
The U.S. starts treating borrowing like a national security issue.
Spending is prioritized, never promised.
Growth is favored over financial tricks.
Bond market is respected, not gamed.
Interest rates rise, but orderly, not violently.
This is America in the 80s.
That's exactly what happened.
It was painful.
It was unpopular.
It was disciplined.
But it was followed by decades of strength.
The vigilantes never fully attack because credibility is restored before they have to attack.
And the final truth of this story is bond vigilantes are not villains.
They're just gravity.
Japan is experiencing gravity.
Anybody who says truth doesn't matter, gravity matters.
Math, I'm sorry, Common Core.
It matters.
It's not just how did you show me how you got there.
It's the wrong answer.
It's gravity.
And America is now in the position where you have to decide, do we respect it right now or are we going to meet it suddenly as it hits us on the head?
Japan is and was the rehearsal.
We are now opening night America.
The audience is the bond market.
You will feel the effects of all of the decisions that are being made right now, and you might feel them sooner rather than later because of what is happening.
And gold is the screaming siren.
People who are not like the people in Minneapolis or, you know, in Des Moines or wherever, the average working stiff is not hearing this and no one is explaining this to them.
You need to know because you are the ones who are going to pay for it.
You Will Pay For It00:09:32
It's not going to be the super rich or the super powerful.
It's going to be you and me.
You need to know so you are prepared.
It doesn't need to end poorly.
We need to make sure that our politicians are looking at the long term and are doing the right things for the long term, not the short feel-good, just help me get elected this time kind of moment.
All right, back in just a minute.
You know, one of the things that I think the Trump administration is doing really well is bringing things back to America.
You know, I started a company 1791 years ago, and it was almost impossible because nothing was made here in America.
In fact, we were the last buyer of what's called cone denim.
Cone denim was the denim that made the original 501s.
And it's just the best denim ever made.
And it went out of business.
And it was the last really good quality denim in America.
Well, that was years ago.
Then American Giant came in and they took a hard road and they had the clout to do it.
They make their clothing right here in the United States with great denim, with great cotton.
Everything here is from America.
The buttons, people sewing the buttons on, the fabric, everything.
American community staying alive because they've decided they can make better clothes here in America and they make the best hoodies you've ever had.
The shape, their t-shirts that don't twist or sag after a few washes, jeans, jackets, basically built to last.
When you buy from American Giant, you're not just buying something you wear, you're supporting a supply chain that stays right here in this country.
Skilled jobs, local economies, and a level of craftsmanship that's getting harder and harder to find.
These are the kind of companies that will save us.
In a time when products are cheap and disconnected from the people who make them, this is made by Americans just like you who care about the work.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Stu is going to join us here in just a minute.
He's got some amazing facts that he's found online.
I didn't know this, but apparently we've killed nine people in cold blood.
ICE has.
Now, Tom Holman and all of Ice and I think even baby Jesus would say, nah, I disagree with that.
That's not true.
But that's what they're peddling.
And I'm also going to get into the amazing footage yesterday of the most innocent, kindest, most gentle dove of a man ever.
And it's Mike, Mike.
I'm not trying to justify his killing by any stretch of the imagination, but I do think it's worth mentioning what is the media saying about this guy.
Look at how they are portraying this guy.
Two things can be true.
He can be a bad guy and he shouldn't have been killed.
Can we be adults?
Can we be adults and have that conversation?
Well, if you're not an adult, you might want to miss the next hour because that's where we're going when we come back.
One of the most frustrating parts of hearing loss is that it can make you feel completely disconnected without ever announcing itself.
You're still in the room.
You're still nodding along, still showing up, but you're working a lot harder just to keep up.
And sometimes you're guessing more than you'd like to admit.
What stops a lot of people from doing anything about it is not denial.
It's the process, doctor appointments, multiple visits, adjustment, a price tag that'll make you wonder if it's even worth starting.
So people wait, even when they know they shouldn't have to.
Audien was built to remove any barrier like that.
Their Atom X is over-the-counter.
It's a hearing aid designed to be straightforward, approachable without prescriptions, no complicated setups, a charging case that has a touch screen that lets you adjust the volume and modes without any buttons or a learning curve.

Let me pick it up This is the Glenn Beck program.
I said something last hour that in five years, the most precious, valuable commodity will be a man's word, will be his honesty and integrity.
If you don't have that, if you're not putting every egg into that basket right now, you're not going to be able to survive as a leader at all.
You are not going to have any influence because I want to show you, there's this Alex Predi video that has come out and the way the press is handling it, it is showing you what is coming next.
And I'll explain coming up in just a second.
First, let me tell you about American financing.
Most people think financial stress comes from big dramatic events and sometimes it does, you know, job loss or medical bills, something major.
But a lot of stress comes from small pressure.
Every single month, bills stacking up, interest piling on, feeling like you're working hard, but never quite getting ahead.
Your mortgage is one of the biggest pieces of that picture.
And if it hadn't been looked at in years, there is a good chance it's not working as efficiently as it could be.
American Financing helps homeowners revisit that loan and see if there's a better way to structure it for today's reality.
Not the one you were living in when you first signed the paperwork.
That could mean a lower rate, different term, or consolidating high-interest debt into one more manageable payment.
Their mortgage consultants are salaried.
They're not commission-driven.
So the focus is on finding a solution that makes sense for you, not pushing a product.
And sometimes financial relief comes from adjusting a major expense so it stopped working against you.
There are no upfront fees to find out if you're qualified and if they can help you.
So call American Financing now, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

Molly Ringwald on Truth and Internet00:03:41
Alex Predi.
When I say that name, now people all across the country feel one way or another.
What's her name?
Molly Ringwald from Pretty in Pink thinks we'd all look pretty in orange.
She now says that when this is over, when the Trump administration is over, they're going to go for prosecutions of people like you, like me, and she will be pushing for treason.
And there will be executions.
That's Molly Ringwald.
Thank you, Molly.
This is not something that is uncommon.
One side is gearing up for purges.
And I hope we come and find common sense.
But we first have to find truth.
And this Alex Predi story is showing me that truth doesn't matter and it's only going to get worse.
Let me, you know, I was thinking about this yesterday.
I was doing an interview for Parrots Media on AI.
And I said, look, you have to understand Gutenberg, when Gutenberg made the printing press, that gave ownership of the truth to others.
Before, it was only the kings and the churches that had truth because books were too expensive.
That's where truth lived.
And so this gave ownership of truth to the average person.
Then our relationship to the truth began to change when radio came in because we could hear it.
We heard it ourself.
And so we felt differently about the truth.
And we knew what the truth was because we could hear it.
Then television came along and we could see it.
And that changed our relationship.
It deepened our understanding of the truth.
Remember, those who were listening to John F. Kennedy and the Nixon debate thought Nixon won, but those who were watching thought John F. Kennedy won.
Which one was true?
Based on what your eyes were telling you.
Okay?
So it changed our relationship.
Then the internet came along.
And internet was the beginning of the chipping away of trust.
Those who were supposedly telling us truth.
It started chipping away.
We started seeing, wait a minute, no, you're playing games with the truth.
That's not the truth.
Why aren't you covering this?
And then you started having people with the internet that wanted to game the truth.
And we started losing trust even more.
AI, for the first time in human history, is going to make the truth irrelevant.
Irrelevant.
Because the system will still be able to somewhat function.
system will be able to function as it gives everybody, I don't know, a billion different truths.
You don't have to tell one big lie anymore.
Why not tell 500 million lies?
And it can keep, it can take the truth and custom make it for you so you're comfortable with that truth.
But that's not the truth.
That's your truth.
Okay.
That's the world we're heading toward.
So we must begin to say, I demand the truth and nothing but the truth.
I don't want it filtered.
I don't want AI to change things.
I just want to see it.
I want to know what it is.
And when you see it, you must deal with it.
Whether you like it or not, you must deal with it.
The Danger of Omitted Truth00:14:13
So let's look at the Predi video.
First, let me start here.
This is what CNN has been saying about Predi.
This is before the latest footage was put out.
Listen to this.
Cut two, please.
They chose to, they killed the wrong guy, right?
Because this is like the perfect guy.
Alex Predi is the guy you would want to date your daughter.
The guy you'd want your son to grow up to be a decent human being who was serving humanity, serving sick veterans who is, you know, there is nothing that has been said about that man that isn't wonderful.
And so they can't malign him.
They can't malign him because we have the videos.
Okay, we do have the videos.
Now will CNN publish these videos?
Will they make as big of a deal about these videos, this video, as the last video?
I doubt it.
Here is the video, the new footage of Alex Alex Predi 11 days before his death.
Listen to this.
This is a moment the news filmed on January 13th in Minneapolis, showing a man who appears to be Predi interacting with federal immigration agents 11 days before Border Patrol shot and killed him.
Our footage is a BBC, whose facial recognition confirmed his identity to a 97% degree of accuracy.
On the morning of January 13th, our team received a tip that federal agents were blocking a street at East 30 Park Avenue in Minneapolis.
We saw observers shouting as they walked back to their vehicles.
When they started driving away, the man kicked their taillight, out of the vehicle, grabbed him, and pushed him to the ground.
During the altercation, agents fired tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd.
They continued to hold the man down before they retreat and he.
The man in our footage is wearing a similar outfit to what Predi was wearing on the day he was killed.
What appears to be a gun is also visible above his waistband.
Okay.
So why is this video important?
Because this is 11 days before, puts him in exactly the same situation.
He's got a gun in the small of his back again, and he is spitting on the vehicle that the ice is in.
And then he kicks the taillight out as they're driving away.
Now, can I ask you, is that a man you want dating your daughter?
Is that a man who is completely under control?
That's the most important thing.
Is he under control?
Because I've never kicked the taillight out of a car.
Now I could see myself doing it if I were enraged, but not calmly walking up and making a decision thinking, you know, this is a logical decision.
I want to kick the taillight out of this car.
That's rage.
That is rage.
And the media keeps telling us, this is really simple.
This is a peaceful legal observer, an innocent man, no threat, end of story.
But that story is incomplete.
Therefore, it is a lie.
You must complete it to tell the truth.
You know, when the press leaves out facts that matter, they're not informing you.
They are shaping you.
Clarity here matters.
Being angry does not justify you being killed.
Let me say that.
Kicking a taillight out does not justify lethal force.
Filming police does not justify being shot in the back.
Those truths don't change.
I'm giving you the full truth.
Those things don't warrant you being shot.
But here's the other truth that he tries to carry.
He's not a passive bystander.
He is not a calm observer.
This is not a man who is simply standing there with a phone saying, I'm just recording.
An observer does not spit on the police or ICE and does not kick the taillight out of a federal vehicle.
You don't do that.
An observer does not scream obscenities into a driver's window.
An observer does not chase a marked law enforcement SUV and shatter the lights as it pulls away.
That's not observation.
That's confrontation.
And that matters because context matters.
The Associated Press, CNN, they all have rushed to paint a saintly figure, ICO nurse, Vietnam veteran saved by him, peaceful legal observer.
All of those things may be true.
And all of those things can exist at the same time as this truth.
Alex Predi had uncontrolled rage towards ICE.
This video, not coming from the right, released from the BBC, shows plainly, you don't need commentary.
You don't need spin.
You can see it.
Do your eyes still connect to your brain?
You can hear it.
Do your ears still connect to your brain?
You can watch the moment where anger turns into action and action turns into escalation.
And here's the part the media doesn't want to say out loud.
They knew about this video.
They knew it existed.
They knew it contradicted the narrative.
And yet for days, you were told this was a peaceful man doing nothing but filming.
That omission is not an accident.
That is a lie of omission.
A lie of omission.
Let's address the line they keep repeating like a shield.
Nothing that happened a week earlier could possibly justify his killing.
Let me say something shocking.
That's a true statement from the press.
No one serious is arguing otherwise.
Who's arguing that?
He kicked the taillight out.
He should have been shot.
Nobody's arguing that.
I'm not arguing that.
That statement is again a lie.
It's sleight of hand, a way to avoid a harder question.
Why were the public and the jury pool fed a one-dimensional lie?
Why were Americans denied the full picture of who this man was in that moment?
Why does the media always do this?
Turn complicated, volatile human beings into symbols, stripped away of agency, responsibility, and any warning sign.
Why?
Why?
Because the story is about a flawed, angry, emotional, volatile man.
Doesn't mobilize outrage.
That's why.
The story about St. Pretty, the perfect victim, does.
Here is the dangerous consequence of this kind of reporting.
When the press insists that every confrontation is peaceful, every five-year-old kidnapped is a true story, every escalation is erased, rage is rebranded as virtue.
You teach the next crowd that nothing they do counts.
You teach them that taunting, spitting, vandalizing, burning a city down, provoking, that's invisible.
Nobody will even notice.
Nobody's going to say anything.
Do it.
And then when the situation explodes, you tell them the system murdered an angel.
Who benefits?
Do the people of the United States benefit from those things?
Does the Republic become more stable or less stable?
Does that protect justice or does it poison it?
Two things can be true at once.
The time for America to decide, are you an adult?
Adults in a republic have to be capable of holding two truths at the same time.
I don't like the way Donald Trump says some things, but he's done some things that are really good.
That doesn't make you a Trumper.
It doesn't make you somebody who is against Trump.
That makes you an adult.
So here are the two things.
The shooting appears unjustified, in my opinion, has to be fully investigated.
I give the police the benefit of the doubt because 8,000% increase of threats on their lives.
It makes them jumpy.
When somebody says gun, gun, gun, two guys pull out their gun and they shoot.
I can at least understand it.
The media lied by omission.
It's portraying this guy as a harmless observer.
If we can't say that we need to look into what happened on the shooting and we need to have a fair trial, not a lynching, a fair trial, and that the press has lied to the jury pool.
They have lied.
If you can't say both of those things, you don't have the ability to reason anymore.
And when reason dies, the only thing that is left is rage.
And that's what they are counting on.
Rage is not justice.
Rage is how societies unravel.
And it usually happens one dishonest headline at a time.
Life is busy enough without pain slowing you down.
You know, you got places to be, people counting on you, things that, you know, you need to get done.
There's no room in the schedule for aches that make you hesitate and stiffness that turn simple tasks into really difficult projects.
But that's what happens when inflammation builds up from years of daily wear and tear.
Your body starts pushing back and suddenly you're spending energy just getting through the day.
Relief factor helps support your body's response to inflammation with a unique combination of ingredients working together.
It knocks that inflammation out so you can keep moving without everything feeling like an obstacle.
When people start noticing the difference, it's not some dramatic moment.
It's practical.
Getting through a full day without feeling worn out, being able to do the things that you need to do and still have something left for the things that you want to do.
Don't wait.
If you're dealing with daily pain, launch your three-week quick start right now.
I'll see what Relief Factor can do for you.
Call 800 for Relief, 800, the number 4 relief.
Or you can go to relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com.
How will it feel to be out of pain again?
10 seconds station id well stew Yeah.
I mean, there's some good points in there, you know.
I mean, I guess in an alternate world and an alternate reality, you know, your last date, which is tomorrow, cannot come fast enough.
It just can't come fast.
Well, I can understand why, because there are going to be nobody here to call you out when you lie about how with this Alex Predi video.
You act like it was real when we know the truth.
Oh, my God.
You know, I thought it was real at first, too.
And then I went to Reddit.
I discovered the truth on Reddit because I was looking at a subreddit called, is this, you know, real or is this AI?
And there they broke it down.
Let me give you some of the comments here.
Predi is wearing the same outfit he was executed in.
They just ran all the public execution videos through AI to make this for sure.
Also, watch how his arms and body move in this video in comparison to the execution.
His arms are also too long at several points in this video.
You didn't cover that at all.
Let me give you this comment.
Do you really think that if it had happened, he'd have been non-incarcerated a week later?
Because ICE is so forgiving.
You didn't cover that.
You wouldn't cover that.
Are you kidding me?
They haven't arrested people who burned whole cities to the ground.
For the love of Pete.
By the way, your problem has to be with the BBC.
Then what you're saying, to believe that is so easy.
Hang on just a sec.
So if I believe that, I have to believe that now the BBC is making this up and is on the side of ICE.
Well, you know, again, they're not that smart because there's a lot of this too.
They really expect us to believe he assaulted several officers and damaged a car and they just released him.
You know, I will say, that's a pretty effective argument if you didn't know the thing, because I roll through a stop sign at the end of a cul-de-sac and I get pulled over.
You can kick cop cars and break their lights and nothing happens to you.
They just put you on the ground for 30 seconds?
That's a real thing.
I had no idea that was reality.
But I will.
I have to tell you, if you're living in a red state, that's not reality.
If you're living in a blue state and you're a protester in those kinds of things and it's ICE, that is the reality.
I mean, and I wouldn't have believed it either 10 years ago.
But I see this happen all the time now.
Rapid Radios Redefine Combat00:02:11
All the time.
Well, that's exactly what you'd say.
As you lie about Alex Predi and the fact that, you know, the whole back light, including the part of the car, fell in one kick.
This is definitely AI.
Fake and disgusting.
Look how the top left of the car in the background seemingly extends.
This is AI.
The people are moving like they're cartoon characters.
Combat after combat after Comic Glenn, just like that.
Amazing.
As I said.
As I said, the most valuable commodity will be integrity very soon.

Glenn Beck's Final Show00:15:39
Tomorrow is Stu's last day on the show.
The second time he has quit the show.
That's not accurate.
I don't know if there'll be a third.
I don't know if there'll be a third, but the second time he's quit the show.
And he'll be here tomorrow for his last, last exciting episode.
Looking forward to it.
We'll be talking about what I'm doing next as well.
I'm excited about that.
Yeah, yeah, whatever.
At 30, the 30th anniversary, you know what I was getting you.
You know what?
I mean, no, I don't.
Yes, you do.
I was going to get you a Lotus, a car of your dreams.
I was going to get you a Lotus for your 30th.
What do you get for 28 years?
What do you get for 28 years?
A paper pirate's hat.
And I don't mean a pirate like Army May.
I mean a pirate's hat.
I want the audience to understand what's going on.
The audience needs to understand how manipulative this is.
I went through a five-year anniversary, a 10-year anniversary, a 15-year anniversary, a 20-year anniversary, and a 25-year anniversary with I think maybe there was one bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit offered at maybe five years.
No, there was nothing.
Nothing.
No, there was nothing.
And now at 28 years, 28 years, I'm leaving.
Saving it for the 30th.
The 30th, not the 25th, which would be the obvious big one, but the 30th was when the $200,000 car was going to show up.
Well, it's only because, and this is the honest God's truth, and you know it's true.
Because I got you a hat and a t-shirt of Lotus.
You got me a hat.
That is true.
You got me a hat and a t-shirt, which is more than you got me at my 20s.
Because what happened was, what happened was I was talking to a friend of mine.
He's like, you did nothing.
You did nothing.
And I'm like, I didn't even think about it.
We were on the air one day ago going, how many years has it been?
25 years?
So I decided right then and there, 30th Lotus.
No, I want to make sure I understand.
So the 25th year, you was 26, I think.
And that's not true.
25th year.
We talked about it throughout the 25th year.
And literally the conversation was, oh, wow, 25 years.
Wow.
And that was it.
But at 30 years, you were going to buy me this car after and you only tell me it after I tell you that I'm leaving.
After 20 years.
I'm not going to tell you beforehand, hey, you know what you're going to get?
No, I'm not going to tell you that beforehand.
This is such a scam.
I hope the audience knows the fraudulent person you listen to on a day-to-day basis.
Hey, Sarah.
Sarah, who do you believe?
Which one of us do you believe?
Oh, you are so dead.
Oh, it's risky.
You're still working here.
I've been here 18 years.
I haven't gotten anything.
Yeah, thank you.
Is that 30?
Is that 30?
Is that even 20?
No.
No.
And you haven't gotten anything.
You have my love and respect deep.
That is not true at all.
Respect?
You don't.
Oh, yeah.
That's definitely not true.
Yeah.
I will say, by the way.
I'll get you a bottle of booze.
You'll be fine and you'll forget about how many years you've worked.
Oh, she'd love that.
She would love that.
Even if it was just like the generic Vodka brand.
No, it's, I can give her Thunderbird and she'd be fine.
Yeah, totally.
This is the love and respect we were talking about.
Excellent.
So tomorrow, we say our final goodbyes because we're never going to talk to him again.
Wait, he's dead to me.
He's dead to me.
Really?
Tomorrow you're going to reveal.
Tomorrow you're going to reveal what you are going to do, right?
Because I know what you're going to do.
Yes.
You at least know part of it.
But yeah, it's going to be a really interesting thing, I think.
I think people will be interested in it.
And we'll talk about it tomorrow with all the details and where you can go to get involved.
It's going to be fun.
I've worked weeks on jokes for this.
I've worked weeks on jokes.
I don't need you to joke about it.
I would like you to say, hey, that's a great thing.
People should join up.
I'm supportive.
Stu.
Stu, that is the relationship we have here.
We hammer each other to death.
And tomorrow, I guess I get the last word.
I guess I get the last word.
I mean, this is going to be a disaster.
Tomorrow is going to be wonderful.
I should just call in sick, honestly, is what I should do.
I should just call in Zick tomorrow.
General Strike.
You know what you don't get?
You don't get the pirates' hat.
You don't get the pirates hat.
Are you serious?
You don't get it.
You don't get it.
I'm just saying.
I appreciate that.
Thank you, Glenn.
Thank you.
For wonderful 28 years.
And obviously, we almost got to that really important, everyone talks about 30th year anniversary.
It's only because I didn't pay attention to the other one.
I started feeling guilty at 25, and I'm like, you know what?
Gosh, Tanya must be a little bit more than that.
How much did I pay you?
And I was like, what am I thinking?
I mean, he's been getting lotuses like crazy every single year.
So please.
Oh, I forgot about all the lotuses I have, the low tie that I have in my garage.
You know, this is exactly what I would expect out of you.
I'm sure Tanya's a very lucky woman to be able to get this sort of attention.
And of course, you could always make the 25th right.
There's no reason that you couldn't just say, hey, by the way, ordered this for you, just came in.
I just totally believe it.
So, but no, go ahead.
We'll wait till 30.
I appreciate all of them.
No, no, no.
I could order it and have it come in.
It wouldn't be going to you because you'd no longer be an employee.
So, I mean, Sarah, would you like a lotus?
Okay.
Sarah, look good at a lotus, I will say.
Sarah would like a lotus.
Sarah, are you the longest running employee now?
Me and Nick Ty, yeah.
Nick Daly.
You and Nick tied.
It's going to be a very expensive 30th.
Anyway, go ahead.
Remind me.
This is company policy, by the way.
Glenn's going to have a mass firing spree at 29 years every time.
Every time it hits 29.
Oh, God, I'm dead before everybody hits 30 years.
All right.
Anyway.
Do we have time?
Do we want to go through some of this Alex Predty stuff we were discussing earlier?
The crap that's going around social media.
Give me a couple.
Give me a couple.
Okay.
So ICE has killed nine people so far in 2026, says every social media.
ISIS did.
ICE.
Or ICE did.
ICE has.
ICE did.
ICE has killed nine people so far in 2026.
Alex Pretty, Renee Goode, Keith Porter, Eber Sanchez Dominguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Paradila, Luis Beltran, Yanez Cruz, Luis Gustavo, Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas.
Rivera.
No, he's still around.
Campos.
So you got those nine.
Now, a couple of.
So I haven't.
I haven't really.
I haven't heard any of those.
Yeah, I mean, the first couple.
Yeah, first couple, right?
So Alex Pretty, we know that whole story.
We've been talking about it.
Rene Good, you know that whole story.
And we've been talking about it.
Let me give you some of the others, though, because you'd think, and of course, everyone retweeting it has not actually looked at what has happened with those situations.
But I decided maybe we should.
So this is what we have.
Geraldo Lunas Campos.
He was a Cuban immigrant, and his death was at an ICE facility ruled a homicide.
An investigation is going on.
In a statement, they said he was pronounced dead after experiencing medical distress.
He became disruptive while in line for medication, refused to return to his assigned dorm.
He was subsequently placed in segregation while in segregation.
He was observed in distress, and they brought in medical personnel.
In the autopsy, it was ruled a homicide due to asphyxia.
So it's possible he was just murdered or, you know, he was resisting and there was a struggle.
are going through that investigation now and before no one deserves investigation i I would agree.
That's the one I think, like, hey, we need to know what the truth of that is.
If it is some terrible thing, we should know about it.
I will note, this might adjust your sympathy level a little bit.
He had prior convictions, including sexual contact with a minor.
So this, now, look, that doesn't mean he should be murdered in prison if that's what happened.
Well, at least not by authorities.
I mean, if a child predator is murdered in prison, at least don't, let's not have the authorities do it.
Right, for sure.
For sure.
But again, yes, a child molester died in questionable circumstances.
But that, okay, you want to include that list.
But I still wanted to investigate.
I just feel like you should note that, by the way, this guy was a child molester and that's why he was in prison.
Yes.
Then we have, again, this is 2026 killings by ICE, murders by ICE.
Active shooter or ICE agent's victim?
What happened in LA New Year's Eve killing is the headline of this next one, which is interesting because it's 2026 and it happened on New Year's Eve.
So they couldn't even put that.
It doesn't happen yet.
It hadn't even happened.
No, well, it's in 2025 New Year's Eve.
They couldn't even get that right.
Anyway, this is about Porter is his last name.
It's Keith Porter.
He was actually shot by an ICE agent.
It is true this time.
He was shot by an ICE agent during a big ICE raid.
Was he going to a home depot?
Was ICE driving by and just firing into home depots to see if they could hit illegal immigrants?
That might be what you think.
In reality, what happened was an ICE agent was at home on New Year's Eve in his home off duty, just home.
And he decided when he heard a bunch of gunshots outside to go out and make sure there wasn't an active shooter situation going on, which is what he believed.
Early?
Yeah, that bastard.
Went out there, by the way.
Early news reports after the incident said that Porter, the victim here, quote unquote, was firing an assault style rifle.
Now, you might say, well, what?
That's just what reporters are saying.
Well, there is a defense, and it is important to adhere to defense.
We should note this was not an ICE investigation.
It was an ICE agent who was off duty at home protecting his home.
That's what happened.
So totally out of what we're talking about normally, but there is a defense for Porter from his family.
Porter's loved ones and advocates say they believe he was ringing in the new year by firing a gun into the air over and over again.
And they are that happens in the Middle East all the time.
All the time.
Now it's all the time.
And those bullets, by the way, those bullets never come down.
Never come down.
They just keep going.
They just keep going.
Deep into space.
They never come down.
One of the complaints by the family, by the way, is that the other people who were also firing guns into the air at the time, they didn't get shot.
So that is their big defense on that one.
Next up, parody law.
Parody law.
Now, he's a criminal illegal alien from Cambodia, convicted of receiving stolen property, robbery, criminal conspiracy, theft, DUI, forgery, intentional possession of a controlled substance, violating probation, receiving stolen property, another intentional possession of a controlled substance, and another claim of for another conviction of forgery.
He's been doing that.
But he never touched a child.
That's true.
I'd rather have parody law around than the other guy.
But this happened over a period of 20 years while he was here illegally.
20 years.
He was arrested by ICE agents outside of his Upper Derby home, transferred to detention center where he received treatment for severe withdrawal.
So he was heavily addicted to opioids, had a withdrawal.
When they saw he had a withdrawal, the staff immediately administered CPR and several doses of naloxone.
He then was transported to the hospital in critical condition and passed away.
So again, he wasn't murdered by ICE.
He had extreme withdrawal.
They tried to save his life multiple times and were unsuccessful.
Then we Luis Beltran Yanez Cruz, Glenn, another one of these ICE murder victims.
Again, another guy.
He was deported already, came back in.
He was a Honduran national, died after he was admitted into the hospital having heart-related issues.
He had a heart attack.
That was the murder, apparently.
Luis Gustavo Núñez Caceres.
Yes, Glenn, you'll be surprised to hear.
Another illegal immigrant.
He was pronounced dead January 5th in Houston after being treated for chronic heart-related issues.
So ICE is now putting cholesterol into the veins of these illegal immigrants and causing heart attacks.
Wow.
Shocking.
But died in U.S. custody.
That's the important parts, dude.
Died in how old was this guy?
That guy, I think one of them was 68.
One of them was 42.
Who has a heart attack at 68?
Yeah, that's shocking, shocking, shocking.
Shocking.
A couple more shocking ones, Glenn, before we go.
Eber Sanchez Dominguez is another guy on this list.
ICE murdered him.
And if you want to ask him the details about this, obviously difficult because he's dead.
But I think he would have a particular opinion as to whether he was murdered by ICE, largely because he murdered himself by hanging.
He committed suicide in the prison cell, yet he's included on the list of ICE murders.
They found him in the cell hanging, but that's ICE's murder.
And then, of course, wait a minute.
Paper sheets?
I don't know.
That's a good question.
Paper sheets.
No, I believe it was.
That might have not been ICE.
It could have very well been Hillary Clinton.
That's true.
Just saying that.
Last one on the list here, Glenn.
Victor Emmanuel.
Victor Manuel Diaz.
Victor Manuel Diaz.
Did ICE murder him?
I don't know.
Let's ask him.
It's hard to tell because he also killed himself in prison at the sprawling tent complex at the U.S. Army's Fort Bill base in El Paso.
He killed himself.
Now, maybe we'll find out later.
Big setups.
You know, they came and they put him on the end of that rope.
All of these, of course, deserve when you have someone who dies, deserve investigation, but does not at all appear.
And there's any evidence supporting the fact that they were murdered.
Have to tell you, I don't have a problem looking into all of that.
No problem looking into all that.
You know, if something foul was happening, I want those people, you know, maybe we'll find that out.
Corrected, whatever it is.
But, yeah, I don't think the nine people were murdered.
Anyway, let's go to Burna.
Did you hear them saying that?
Let's just have an investigation on all of these.
Let's let the chips fall where they may.
Burna, I hope you never need to defend yourself, but hope isn't a plan.
The real world has a way of just throwing situations that escalate fast.
A threat move closer, your heart rate spikes, and in a matter of seconds, you're forced to make decisions you can't unmake.
And that's why I like having options that, you know, don't immediately jump to lethal force.
The Burna Launcher is a non-lethal self-defense tool designed to stop a threat at a distance using powerful pepper and kinetic projectiles.
Gives you a way to create space, disrupt an attack, and get you safely away from the situation before you have to pull a trigger that you can never take back.
The Compact Launcher makes it more practical.
Real Self-Defense Without Regret00:05:01
It's smaller, easier to conceal, simple to carry, which means it can be actually with you when you need it, not left at home because it's too big or bulky.
My wife carries it in purse.
We have it in our glove box.
My kids have it in their backpack.
I mean, it's all 50 states.
It's legal in, doesn't require a permit.
You have a real self-defense option without regret.

Even when it ain't popular, that still counts for something.
Back.
We'll be right back.
Well, most people plan their day around time.
You know, the meetings, the errands, or whatever deadlines you have.
You don't really think about it when you think about like what have energy to do any of this stuff.
You just hope you'll have enough to get through it all.
And when you don't, you blame sleep or you blame stress or you, I'm just getting old without realizing a lot of it can trace back to how your body is handling food.
Health code was designed to support metabolic health, which is really about how steady your internal fuel system is.
When meals send your blood sugar on a roller coaster, your energy tends to follow.
You feel good for a bit, then hungry, foggy, or tired not long after.
This approach behind health code is going to fix a lot of the stuff that people are dealing with.
Dr. Ben Bickman, who studies how insulin and blood sugar regulation affect how we feel from day to day, he's been working on this for a long time.
And the goal isn't eating less per se.
It's about eating in a way that helps your body stay more stable and predictable.
Health code is a nutritionally complete meal shake that is built around that principle.
It emphasizes protein, healthy fasts, low, very low in carbs, avoids the added sugar, and supports metabolic gut and brain health together.
Instead of constantly reacting to your meals, your body gets the kind of steady support that helps energy and focus and hunger feel a lot more manageable throughout the day.

You know, a lot of back discomfort comes from one big movement, and it comes from repetition, sitting too long, standing too long, moving the same way every day.
And over time, that tension just settles in and starts to feel normal, even though it shouldn't.
What Chirp does is go straight to the source of that tension.
Their wheel-style back rollers are designed to target the muscles that run along your spine, the ones that really get tight and overworked and become stiff from daily life.
You lie back, you roll slowly, and you let those muscles finally start to release.
It's so satisfying.
The design is smart and intentional.
There's a groove down the center, so you're never putting pressure on your own spine itself.
Just the muscle on either side.
And with the multiple wheel sizes, you can control how deep the stretch goes, whether you want it something gentle or more targeted.
Simple tool, but it addresses the problems a lot of people have been living with for a lot of years.

The Depravity of This Nonsense00:15:21
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
I don't know if you saw this story from the press, but a gray Honda sedan was seen in footage circulating, or yes, circulating on social media, backing up and plowing into the side entrance of the world headquarters of a Jewish synagogue.
And it was pretty bad.
Police responded to the car ramming itself into the doors of the synagogue.
And as I read this story for the New York Times today, I thought to myself, gee, when was the last time I read a story about, let's just say, an ICE agent where Gunn killed innocent bystander?
Gunn did this.
Police arrive to find Gunn smoking.
No.
Why won't you, why?
Why won't you say who this person was?
What was going on?
Why is it only car?
Car, car, car did this, car did that.
Car didn't do anything.
Car was driven by a human being.
Tell me about the human being, not the car.
I don't care about what the Honda did because the Honda did nothing except what it was instructed to do by the driver.
Anyway, also Elon O'Mar, another story in New York Times, front page, New York Times.
It was so, so very tragic what happened.
We finally now know what that dangerous substance was in the syringe that was sprayed at her in a press conference.
Could have been really, really bad.
Turns out, no, not so much.
We'll tell you about that in 60 seconds.
First, most people don't call tax resolution companies until they're scared out of their mind.
And by then, the IRS has been sending letters for a while, maybe old back taxes.
Maybe you haven't filed in years, whatever the reason is.
If you run a business and you're behind on your payroll taxes, the IRS can come after you personally.
They don't mess around.
This isn't a problem that fixes itself.
And I'm careful on who I recommend.
And Rush Tax Resolution is the only tax firm I trust.
They're going to help you.
They're an A-plus rating with the BBB, and they know how to deal with the IRS the right way.
They even offer free IRS transcript investigations so you can find out where you stand and if they can help.
By the way, here's one of the reasons why I took them.
They offer that.
Most places will offer that, but they'll charge you 500 bucks before they'll even tell you if they can help you.
They give it to you for free and they won't charge you anything until they can say, We're able to help you.
We're going to get your money reduced.
We're going to get fines and everything else reduced.
When they promise they can help you, that's when they'll take your case and they'll start charging you.
Everything else is, you know, let's just check it out together.
Rush is going to provide that free transcript investigation.
All you have to do is go right now to rush taxresolution.com.
You're in trouble with the IRS.
Let them help you.

So I want to talk to you a little bit about Elon Maher because, you know, when I saw somebody spraying something on Elon Omar, I immediately thought, boy, she's got to freak her out, honestly, because in her country, in some Muslim countries, in some Muslim communities, that happens to women and they spray battery acid on their face and then their faces melted off.
And I thought, wow, that could be really, I mean, she must be concerned because she knows in Muslim communities, some people do that.
But that's not what this was.
That's not what this was.
This was some guy who looked like Fred Flintstone that took a syringe and filled it with, are you ready?
This is horrible.
Filled it with apple cider vinegar.
Now, I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but Stu, correct me if I'm wrong.
I believe that can stain a nice sweater like that.
It can leave a mark.
We should be clear.
We do not have any evidence of this particular apple cider vinegar attack staining that sweatshirt or discoloring the stripes.
But that is a possibility.
And that is the main thing we need to talk about today.
Her bravery in being able to incredibly get through a moment like that.
I just, I think we have to stand here in awe and just appreciate her.
Hero.
Hero is what comes to mind.
Now, I agree, Glenn.
Like, legitimately, when I first saw that, we didn't know what the liquid was.
It could have been really dangerous.
I'm not minimizing like that.
It could have been scary for her.
She is a divisive figure.
It could have been something terrible, right?
It could have been horrible.
And the person who did it looks completely insane and on something to me in the video, like just looks completely crazy.
A crazy person charges you, gets close to you, gets close to any public figure.
There is the possibility that it turns into something really, really bad.
Horrible.
That being said, when typically we find out it wasn't something bad, the story pretty much goes away.
I could give you dozens of examples of conservatives getting hit in the face with a pie, a conservative being glitter bombed, right?
These things happen all the time.
And when they are happening, there is real risk to that person.
It could have gone much better.
When you have a person who hates you that much to run up to you and be that close to you, it could have gone in a very ugly direction.
When we find out that it didn't, it is a quick incident that goes away almost immediately with no additional coverage.
Not the case with Elon Omar.
Elon Omar, the next day after this incident, was the top story at the New York Times all day long, all day, the top story at the New York Times.
And the story, which is called Attack on Elon Omar, follows years of Trump's targeting her.
That is what the headline of the story is.
And I looked all around here, Glenn.
Not analysis.
This is a news story.
A news story.
It's by Annie Carney reporting from Washington.
As President Trump riled up a rally crowd on Tuesday night describing immigrants bent on harming and killing Americans, he singled out one person in particular, Elon Omar.
The crowd booed.
They recognized the name of the Democratic congresswoman from Minnesota whom the president has demonized and dehumanized for years with racist and xenophobic attacks.
I can't take it.
No, I can't take it because all you can think of is what they're doing to the ICE, every single member of ICE right now.
I can't.
I can't.
The hand will explode.
100%.
Like they are demonizing these people.
They're calling them Nazis every single day on television.
Every day.
Saying, get them.
I hope your wife dies.
I'll kill your family.
All of these things.
But that's not worth the time.
Trump has never said anything.
And by the way, and by the way, who was it that suggested recently to go get a syringe and fill it with a paralytic?
We just saw it.
It was a nurse on the left who put it on TikTok.
This guy didn't fill it with a paralytic.
He put apple cider vinegar, thank God.
But he still had a syringe.
Who was the one suggesting get a syringe with a needle and jam it into people's necks with a paralytic?
It was a nurse.
A nurse from Virginia.
Now former nurse.
So please.
And by the way, that wasn't covered at all by the media.
The next paragraph in this story, though, Glenn, not long afterward, remember this is about the attacks of Donald Trump and his rally.
Not long afterward at her old event in North Minneapolis, Ms. Omar was attacked by a man who rushed the lectern where she was speaking, spraying her with a strong-smelling liquid.
So we should note, there is literally no evidence whatsoever that these two things are tied to each other.
The fact that he was having a rally at another place in the country while she was having this rally in Minnesota, there's no evidence this man was inspired by Donald Trump.
In fact, what he says is stop dividing Minnesotans, which is a weird thing to say if you're super mega MAGA.
Maybe, I don't know, maybe it's, maybe he is, maybe we'll find that out.
But there's no evidence that he heard this speech about Elon Omar, that he was inspired by anything Trump has ever said about it.
It's just listing two things that occurred.
One event where Donald Trump mentions Elon Omar and another event where Ms. Omar is having a rally.
Now, not focused on there is the rally Omar is having is divisive, is targeting Christy Noam and saying all sorts of terrible things about Christy Noam.
Now, that's apparently completely okay and a heroic act, while Donald Trump criticizing Omar is the cause for this attack, which is fascinating.
I will also note that very recent history, Lee Zeldon was almost stabbed on stage during one of his events.
This event occurred in the home state of the New York Times and was barely covered at all.
It was covered.
It was not the front page top story for 24 straight hours.
Now, let me give you a little bit deeper into the story.
One more thing here, Glenn.
Let me just point out this is ridiculous.
With the Lee Zeldon story, was there apple cider vinegar in it?
No, there was a knife.
No.
Well, I mean, there is a difference between those two.
It wasn't a syringe with no needles.
This is like a turkey baster, essentially, what is what caused the attack on Elon Omar, quote-unquote, attack on Elon Omar.
And yes, I get.
If you're Elon Omar, you don't know what's happening in that moment.
You don't know it's apple cider vinegar.
I know a lot of people are talking about maybe she did know.
And until we have evidence on that, I'm not going to go down that road.
Maybe we'll find that out as well.
But, you know, it's important to understand.
Yeah, sure, she probably was freaked out.
But listen to the way that her reaction is described by the New York Times.
I remind you in a news story.
This is not like a romance novel that you'd pick up at the airport.
This is a New York Times news story about this incident.
When she was attacked, Ms. Omar reacted with defiance.
She did not cower behind the lectern.
She instinctively lunged at the man, attacking her, and insisted on finishing her remarks, even as her security detail and staff tried to persuade her to retreat.
She did not cancel other events for the week.
She announced she would tour Carmel Mall in Minneapolis on Wednesday and then hold a news conference.
In short, Ms. Omar barely flinched.
I'm built that way, Ms. Omar said calmly.
That is a quote from a news story in the New York Times about, I remind you, a woman who got vinegar on her shirt.
How does a civilization with a supposedly free media exist when people are trying to decipher facts from sources like that?
I have no idea.
I'm just looking up right now.
I'm just looking at the New York Times.
I'm trying to find quotes.
I'm just looking for quotes from the New York Times and the story on how they describe Donald Trump and his reaction to actually being shot.
Yeah, I mean, that's another reminder.
You know, this is all about how Donald Trump is bad and he's causing all this violence.
You do remember him bleeding on stage because a bullet hit him, right?
Like, has anybody, I really thought, I didn't really think, I really hoped that after that event, maybe we'd lose this nonsensical hysteria that the right wing is responsible for all the violence in this country.
Just because there was, yeah, we could give you dozens of examples, which we've done.
Yeah, we could prove this case over and over and over again that the leftists have committed many, many violent acts in this country.
And, you know, the fact that they, you know, not that the conservatives have never done anything, but the numbers are much, much different.
And when you talk about this, we could have done that.
But like when you have a big event, a marquee level event, where the president of the United States is almost murdered multiple times as he's running for office, you'd think maybe that would be included in at least a little bit of context here.
Hey, you know, the left also shoots Donald Trump.
So you can see how he might be a little sensitive on these things.
Nothing.
Nothing.
It's just how Elon Omar, the wearer of vinegar, is the real hero in this tale.
It's unbelievable.
Try this.
As agents helped him up and escorted him off the stage, he raised his fist, pumped it at the crowd, and mouthed the words fight, fight, fight, which some say was a powerful symbol of his reaction, which some say.
Times and other reporters noted after being struck and brought to cover by Secret Service, Trump asked agents to let him get his shoes.
Okay.
Well, Glenn, I mean, very quickly.
Before you move off of that, I was watching that, of course, as probably everybody was.
I happened to be watching it on CNN.
I was at a hotel.
I was watching it on CNN.
And then I was at an airport, which, of course, is the main place where people watch CNN.
And I'm watching CNN.
And in the moments directly after this, they talked about him standing up and saying fight, fight, fight.
And they said they were concerned that it would cause escalation.
His words of that incident might be something that would make the right wing get violent.
This is a man who just took a bullet on stage.
And the fact that he said fight is a concern that the right wing might get violent in this country.
It's impossible to overstate the depravity of this nonsense.
Come on.
Look, I was worried for her when this happened.
I was nervous.
You should never do anything, even if it's silly.
You shouldn't run up, throw pie in people's face.
You should throw vinegar on their shirt.
But we now know what occurred, which was nothing.
Thank God it was nothing.
But it was nothing.
But here's why I wasn't concerned about that.
If there was something bad, it looks like she was taken care of right away.
It didn't get on her.
Or if it did, it got her sweater.
If it was something really, really bad, it could have been a real problem.
But they caught the guy.
I know the guy is going to be prosecuted.
I know the guy is going to go to jail.
Guarding Credibility in Truth00:14:39
I know the system will work on that.
And I know the system would have worked if she was in trouble and had some problems.
The system would work there.
I had no doubt that that guy was going to get caught.
And he'll probably end up saving, you know, spending much more time than anybody who tried to do that to a Republican would spend if they spent any time at all.
So I wasn't concerned.
And one of the reasons why I wasn't concerned, and this was my honest reaction, I said this when I first saw it on radio.
Look at her.
She's a fighter.
It might be because she's from Somalia and grew up in a war zone.
But look at her.
I mean, she went after this guy.
She's not, you know, she's not somebody you don't that you just you could count out and say, oh, well, she's a softy.
She's not a softie.
It's Elon Omar.
All right.
More in just a second.
Let me tell you about our sponsor.
It's Patriot Mobile.
You probably wouldn't shop at a store if you knew they were using your money to, you know, I don't know, support things you strongly disagree with.
If you knew that they were, you know, running drugs across the border or they were involved in something just totally immoral, would you shop at that store anymore?
Of course you wouldn't.
Of course you wouldn't.
So why are you doing it with some of these big cell phone companies?
I've told you for a while now that Verizon, they contribute to Planned Parenthood.
Well, depending on, I mean, if you just think that's a choice, then you don't have a problem with it.
If you think that that's murder, you're involving yourself.
Every time you pay that bill, you're helping them murder children.
What are you thinking?
This is so easy.
So easy.

And it is episode 276.
Jack Ryan predicted Maduro's capture.
Annie Jacobson, one of my favorite guests on the podcast, she is great.
She's the one.
You remember seeing this when they got Maduro and they played the Jack Ryan episode where she was like, or where Jack Ryan was in front of the class.
He's like, what's the biggest, you know, what's the biggest threat?
And he said, why didn't anybody mention Venezuela?
And he suggested that maybe you go in in the cover of night and get Maduro and sneak him out and take him to New York for, well, that was Annie Jacobson's suggestion.
She was part of the writing team, and she is a great investigative reporter.
And so they asked her to consult and actually be a part of the writing team.
That was her suggestion.
So I talked to her about that.
All of the things that she thinks we might have in secret weapons.
I mean, it is really, really fascinating.
And then the Golden Dome.
You know, she wrote the book on nuclear war.
And, you know, there's no way out of nuclear war.
You just do not want a nuclear war.
And I asked her about the golden dome.
All of that is available now at glenbeck.com.

Also at Glennbeck.com, there is something else.
And this one is really personal to me.
This is Chance and Young Soon.
They're two brothers of a pastor.
They're sons of a pastor in South Korea.
He is being held in prison.
He is deteriorating quickly.
And he is one of the most selfless people.
He is, I really believe this guy is a modern day Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
And what he's standing against in South Korea is remarkable.
South, I didn't say North, South Korea.
South Korea is changing.
You need to see this.
This is another Torch exclusive conversation.
You can find it also free at Glennbeck.com today.
I spoke to the sons.
You have to see the part where I asked them about their father and how as sons they felt about their father and they started to cry.

All right, let me tell you about realestateagentsitrust.com.
People will spend weeks researching a new car.
Then they'll pick a real estate agent based on a yard sign or a recommendation.
It's one of the biggest financial decisions that you ever make.
Where you live, how much you net, what you can afford next.
It all ties back to how the deal is handled.
This is why I created realestateagentsitrust.com.
This is a network of agents that we have vetted for experience, track record, and how they actually treat their clients.
I have a guy in Phoenix, John, who is actually the guy who is in charge of all the vetting.
And this guy is relentless.
I mean, relentless.
He puts these agents through the ringer because he wants to make sure that he's a huge fan of the show.
And he's like, Glenn, I don't want to do anything that hurts your reputation and your words.
So I want to make sure everybody's treated the way you would want them to be and how you would say they would be.
And we have about, I think, two or three thousand agents around the country.
We have a waiting list of about 10,000, but we're not taking any more because we want to make sure that we can monitor everybody.
These guys will get the job done and they'll do it right.
Just a couple days to get free access to all the exclusive material from Torch.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're We're working really hard on a few things for you.
Every day we do something with George AI and Glenn AI, and I want to explain what that is.
George AI is something that I have built.
This is not ChatGPT.
This is something that my team, my tech team, has built.
I hired a really good tech group about, I don't know, eight months ago or so, to build the AI part of my next phase of my life for education.
And George AI is a fully proprietary system that has the library that I have collected and David Barton and Mercury One has collected over the years.
It is the largest library, third largest in the world for founding documents.
It's the largest private library on the founding, goes from the Pilgrims, and we've put up until about 1820 all of the documents and everything else.
And it is very early on in this.
And right now, we are using it to create what is called George AI.
Jason, what is George AI on today?
George AI today is on, I was kind of motivated by the Borders Are heading to Minneapolis and taking charge, the general Tom Homan.
So I did it specifically on what the founders would have thought about the need for or the importance to the American project of having a strong and secure border and the proper enforcement of immigration laws.
Is there even a debate on that?
Not only is there a debate, but if they do agree with that, why do they agree with it?
Reference all the founders, and it's pretty enlightening.
So people know, how do you get people, because people say, well, it's not ChatGPT.
How does it understand Minneapolis?
Can you explain this process real quick?
Yeah, specifically in this one, I didn't give any.
So normally if I have to do that, I give a hypothetical situation and I have to type into it when I'm doing the prompt exactly what the hypothetical situation is.
And at one point, I even put a hypothetical, I said the Department of Homeland Security, it obviously didn't know what that was.
And it sounded like this was going to kick off a whole other debate.
I actually might have to do that one tomorrow because that one might be interesting.
But anything that's happening that they wouldn't know about, I have to hypothetical into it.
So, and that stuff is not kept.
It's purged out of the memory.
So it is, we're keeping it clean.
It is only stuff from the only things that the founders either wrote themselves or would have influenced that we know influenced their thinking at the time.
That's all that's in there.
And when it goes to Glenn AI, this again is not ChatGPT.
You could go and ask, you know, ChatGPT, hey, what would Glenn Beck think about?
And it would, I don't know, might get it right, might get it wrong, but it wouldn't be me for sure.
Glenn AI is all of my words, everything that I have ever said, printed, spoken on TV or radio.
Many of the stuff that I've said in speeches, 30 years of that, all put into, again, proprietary technology, and it cannot take anything from the outside.
So if you asked it about the, you know, the earthquake of 89 in, you know, in San Francisco, it probably wouldn't be able to find anything and tell you anything about it because it doesn't have that information.
It's only the things that I spoke into it.
So they are very, very different.
And every day we provide one of those things for you.
And we are guarding our credibility and making sure that everything we do with AI is marked AI.
So you know it is really important that you know some things are made by AI.
This one is the authentic real deal.
And we have to guard our credibility.
And I am working really hard on that because I, as I said to you earlier today, I believe in five years, credibility is going to be the only thing that has any value because no one's going to believe anything within five years.
Nothing will be believable.
And I think five years is an outside wall, which is why it really bothers me when people say, you know, Glenn Beck, you're just a shill for Donald Trump.
Not a shill for Donald Trump.
I'm not a shill for anybody, for anybody.
I mean, anybody who has actually listened to this show, you know that I criticize him hard when I believe he deserves it, publicly, clearly, without any hedging.
And I also praise him when I believe he earns it, just as publicly and just as clearly.
That's not loyalty.
That's judgment.
And I'm telling you this because this is how we all have to start to be.
We all have to just be fair down the middle.
I'm not for a man.
I'm for truth.
I'm not for a team.
I'm for truth.
And truth is really inconvenient because it refuses to stay on one team.
I was just talking to Jonathan Turley.
I've got an interview with him coming out next week with his book.
And yesterday we were talking and he said, you know, I said to him, I said, you know, Jonathan, the reason why I love you is because you are so much like the Constitution.
The Constitution always doesn't always cut my way.
The Constitution doesn't always say, you know what, Glenn, you're right.
Sometimes it's like, Glenn, you're a dummy.
Yeah, you're wrong.
And then you have a decision to make.
I'm either going to deny the truth or I'm going to go, well, okay, well, the Constitution says that's wrong.
So I guess I got to follow the Constitution.
And I like those people who challenge me.
I like those people who I can't always put into a box.
I've said repeatedly, in moments like what we're seeing right now in Minnesota, I may be wrong, but I lay out what I'm seeing and I explain the pattern that I believe is forming.
And then I do something apparently that drives people crazy.
I tell you what to watch for next.
I give you the markers and the timelines and the signals because analysis without accountability is propaganda.
That's it.
If the facts change, I have to change with it and I have to tell you that.
And that's not a weakness.
Do that in your own life.
That's not weakness.
That's integrity.
You know, people have been saying, you know, shill for Donald Trump because I've said recently, I don't find Donald Trump's negotiation skill remarkable.
I don't.
I find it sometimes otherworldly.
It's so good.
But there's a pattern that you have to watch from.
It's not, is he so good?
It's his pattern.
And if you watch the pattern, the way he reframes, he pauses, he lets others overplay their hand.
And then he quietly gets everything he always wanted all along.
Could I be wrong about the things that he's doing right now?
Yes.
And I say so.
Every time I talk about one of the things I'm praising him for, I'm like, I hope this is what it is.
It could be wrong.
But I think, you know, there are two possible paths ahead of us all the time.
And there's two things that, you know, you get up in the morning and you can believe two things that are objective.
One, I'm ugly.
Two, I'm a pretty good looking person.
They're objective.
I mean, I mean, they're not objective.
They're subjective.
Okay.
There is no truth to that one way or another.
Why do we always, on subjective things, why do we always pick the damaging one?
Why do we always go, yeah, I'm really ugly?
Why?
And when it comes to truth, those are not subjective.
But we will pretend it is and then we pretend we have certainty on that.
I just want people to watch the evidence.
Watch it with me.
Correct me.
You know, here's what troubles me.
Losing Hope Without Surrendering Our Brains00:04:08
We've lost the ability to hold hope without surrendering our brains.
Some people say Donald Trump is the savior.
That confuses me.
He's a man.
He's not our savior.
He's the only man that can do it.
Well, he is one of the only men.
I mean, I can't think of another that can do it, but he's not going to be the savior of us all.
And at the same time, other people say he's folded, he's sold out, and they raise that, you know, he's raised a white flag.
And that confuses me just as much because both positions demand faith without any evidence.
And they're pointed in opposite directions.
I reject both of those.
I mean, we have a choice right now.
You can go full black pill if you want, assume betrayal is inevitable, that nothing matters, that discernment is naive, that all roads lead to someplace very, very dark.
Or we can do something far more difficult.
We can learn from history.
We can face the facts honestly.
We can choose optimism only if the facts support it, not fantasy, not blind trust, not, you know, measured hope.
Just let's not be a shill.
Let's be an adult.
And one thing, because I've been thinking about this all week has been bothering me, and it'll bother me until I get it off my chest.
I'm a recovering alcoholic.
I know what it feels like to lose your word.
Because alcoholics, if you're an alcoholic or recovering alcoholic, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
You lied to everybody in your life.
You covered everything for your whole life while you were drinking.
You were drinking and telling everybody you weren't.
You had a problem and you told everybody you didn't.
I mean, you're really good at lying.
I was really good at looking in the mirror and lying even to myself.
Really good.
And eventually your promises to yourself and your promises to everybody else eventually mean nothing.
And I remember the time when I was at my most broken and I realized I didn't have anyone in my life at all, anyone who knew me, anybody who would listen to me, nothing, nothing.
Nobody believed a word I said because they shouldn't have because I was a liar.
I was an alcoholic.
My whole life was a lie.
And all I said, I made a pact with the Lord.
I will do exactly what you asked me to do to the best of my ability if you will just help me regain the trust of people.
I just want to look somebody in the eye and say, this is true as I understand it.
And them to go, okay, Glenn, they might think I'm wrong, but at least they know I believe it.
And I vowed that I would never, ever violate that again.
I would never give it away, not for approval, not for power, not for money, not for access, nothing.
And I have spent 35 years rebuilding that bond.
And I am not going to throw it away for a politician or better podcast numbers or for applause or any of that.
Never.
If you're listening to this show, you should know I am not, nor am I trying to get on Trump's good guy list.
Would I like to be there?
Yes.
Am I?
No.
I'm not on his bad guy list either.
I don't think.
I could be.
I don't want to be on any list, okay?
When I think somebody's right, I'll say so.
When I think they're wrong, I'll say that too.
And if I'm wrong either direction, I'll reevaluate and I'll apologize.
And I have a long track record of that.
Here's the deal I made with myself.
I'm not going to break that.
And it's the deal I make with you.
I'll tell you what I believe.
I could be wrong, but it's what I believe.
And I ask you to do that too.
And if that's what you want in a host, you're in the right place.
But if you want a host that always agrees with you, who never challenges you, who never asks you to reconsider, never admits uncertainty, then you know what?
You're probably right.
This is not the show for you.
But actually, as I have been thinking about it, that actually makes me sad because I value people who don't think like me.
I hire people that don't think like me.
I learn from people who don't think like me.
Why I Hire People Who Disagree00:05:09
It sharpens my own thinking.
I'm sharper because of them.
But when disagreement instantly becomes you're a sellout, you're on the wrong team, you're on the wrong side of history, and it is absolutely known by the other person.
What do you do when curiosity becomes betrayal, when humility becomes weakness?
Well, for me, that tells me something.
Team jerseys are on too tight.
Whatever that team is that people want me to be on, I'm not on that team.
And I hope you're not either.
I'm a thinking human being.
I am an individual to act, not to be acted upon.
I have my own mind, my own conscience, my own point of view, my own responsibility.
And I am inviting you every day if you're willing to be the same kind of person.
I warn you, it is harder.
It is lonelier, but it is so worth it in the end.
It is a much better way to go through life.
And it is the only way I know how to do this job.
Back in a minute.
Rough greens.
Dogs don't complain when they're, you know, not feeling their best.
They don't say, well, you know, my joints feel a little stiff.
My tummy's been off lately.
They just go signat grass.
And then they slow down a little, bit by bit.
They sleep a little more.
They play a little less.
And most of us think, oh, they're just getting older.
And I hate to see that.
But a lot of times it's not just age.
It can be nutrition.
Dry kibble is made to last on a shelf, which means it's cooked at very high temperatures that reduce many of the live nutrients that dogs, you know, were designed to get from real food.
And that's why I want to tell you about rough greens.
It's not a new food.
It's a powder that you add to the food that you're already feeding your dog.
And it's loaded with antibiotics and omegas and digestive enzymes, vitamins and minerals.
And it helps support your dog's gut, coat, energy, overall health.
Don't change your dog's food.
Just add rough greens.

Glenn Beck.
Wow, Stu, you know, I've been going to your YouTube site, Stu Does America.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And man, I've been just checking it because I'm waiting for this big announcement that you're going to make about what you're going to do when you leave here.
Or tomorrow is your last day.
And thank you.
You know, I first read, you know, the description of the about, and I and I thought, wow, Stu is so humble and gracious and nice.
May I just read what was posted yesterday?
Yes, thank you.
Please do.
Stu Does America description.
Welcome to the Stu Does America, the show that is hosted by a man who really truly owes his entire career, livelihood, and his whole existence to Glenn Beck.
And I thought, wow, that is over the top.
True, but over the top.
This is the channel to hear Stu's analysis and points of view, or more accurately, Glenn Beck's points of view, which have been stolen by Stu and then dumbed down by about 40%.
Stu, that is, I mean, again, true, but not necessary.
Not necessary.
You should just let it go.
You can't steal that which is being given, Stu.
When Stu does have an original thought or emotion, it's mostly awe directed towards Radio Hall of Fame member Glenn Beck.
And then you just bluntly say Stu is not in the Radio Hall of Fame, which is true.
Again, that is true.
Tune in or don't.
I thought it was an odd way to end that.
But that's what makes you the success that you are, Stu.
And then I read today the description.
Usually you don't change the YouTube description.
YouTube.com channel description.
Stu DoesAmerica.
Yeah, YouTube channel description is for some reason I'm not hearing.
Okay.
Well, normally it's not something you change on a basis.
There it is.
What?
Now, you don't normally change the YouTube description of your channel on a day-to-day basis, but I've noticed it's been changing.
I don't know.
You have noticed.
Well, I've noticed, maybe you've been hacked.
Do you see today?
You better make sure this doesn't happen again today because this morning I read it.
It says, Welcome to Stu Does America, the show hosted by a Canadian spy sent to America to destroy it.
Now, that's something I've often thought, but I would have never.
I mean, that's, have you been hacked?
Best known as the leading purveyor of child care facilities in Minnesota.
Stu brings the same intelligence and honesty to the show he brought to his founding of the Quality Learning Center in Minneapolis.
Title of the show is a bit of an homage to the fact that Stu is not legally allowed to leave the country due to travel restrictions put on his passport by the DOJ and DHS, as well as various foreign nations.
He's also a huge WNBA fan.
Again, all of this stuff is true, but you should check.
