Glenn Beck frames the US as being in a war against Islamism, a cancer growing since 1979, citing recent terror attacks in Michigan and Virginia alongside Iranian threats to women's soccer players. He argues that current administration cowardice fuels this ideology, which he compares to Nazism, while promoting his upcoming documentary "The Blueprint of Our Destruction." Beck urges military enlistment to counter radicalization, predicts regime collapses in Iran and Cuba via drone support, and warns that Western civilization faces an existential choice between liberty and submission.

It usually doesn't show up with blaring sirens and crashing cymbals.
It just sort of becomes a part of your daily routine.
And before you realize, you've totally changed.
You sit a little more carefully than you used to.
You avoid certain movements.
You get up slower.
You plan your day around what your spine might decide to do.
That's not the way it's supposed to be.
Here's the reality.
The chirp contour is designed for that exact kind of everyday wear and tear.
Long hours sitting, sleeping wrong, working too hard, sometimes not moving enough.
It uses targeted spinal decompression, deep massage and pressure, optimal heat to help you and your back actually relax and reset.
You lie down, automatically, it adjusts to your back, and it does all the work for you.
No guessing, no twisting yourself into positions that feel like a yoga class gone wrong.
This is really great.
I use it all the time.

Hello, America.
There is a lot to talk about.
We've had three terror attacks in our country this week alone.
We've had terror attacks in Canada, in Norway, against our embassies.
You know, we are at war.
We are at war, and it is revealing itself.
And there is a split in America.
And, you know, I have said to you here for the last, you know, 10 days or so, my job is not to tell you what to think.
My job is not to take a stance one way or another.
I tell you how I think, how I arrived at these conclusions.
And today I want to play the role of a doctor for you.
I'm going to give you the diagnosis and I'm going to show you what is in your body, what is happening to the Western civilization and give you a choice.
And today, I am going to take a firm stand for or against this war, a firm stand.
So I will, I'm not asking you to change your mind.
I'm just saying you need to hear it and know where I stand because there comes a time when America, you have to decide.
You have to decide.
And it's up to you, but I'll tell you where I am.
Also, we have some really good news.
There's some good things that are happening in the country.
And believe it or not, what happened in both Michigan and Virginia, not the terror attack, but the response to the terror attack, actually is good news.
And I want to go over that as well.
But we have Tracy Holmes.
We've been trying to get a hold of her for the last couple of days.
It's midnight in Australia right now, and she's been staying up late so she could be on the program with us.
She is the host of the Sports Ambassador.
She's a sports journalist, been in it forever.
And she's the one that has been breaking the story and telling the story of the Iranian soccer team, the women's soccer team.
And she has a lot to tell.
It's an amazing story.
She'll take it from the beginning and then what we're dealing with in Australia as well.
Tracy joins me in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
It's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
4,000 years ago, God told Abraham to look at the sand on the seashore, and he made a promise that Abraham's descendants would be as numerous as those grains of sand and that they would be blessed.
It's truly one of the most remarkable promises in all of history because ever since that moment, this sand has survived wave after wave after wave of trying to break them down, destroy them, and erase them.
Persecution has come from every direction, and yet the people of Israel are still standing and they're still building and they're carrying a light that the world has never been able to put out.
And Christians, they are our brothers.
Whether you like it or not, they are our brothers.
It doesn't mean you have to agree with Israel, the war, or anything else, but the Jewish people are our brothers.
If it wasn't for the Jews, we wouldn't have the Old Testament.
We wouldn't have Jesus.
And last night, I actually heard a podcaster say, What's the proof that Jesus was a Jew?
Are you out of your mind?
Are we really at that place?
It is time to step up and take a stand.
Would you join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews?
Right now, they're in Israel.
They're on the ground.
They're providing bomb shelters, food for the elderly who can't get out, and people are not coming to help them because the situation is so chaotic.
Be God's hands and feet.

We welcome Tracy Holmes now, sports journalist, host of the Sports Ambassador in Australia.
Thank you for staying up so late for us.
I know it's very late in Australia.
Not at all.
Pleasure to be on your program.
Thanks for having me.
You bet.
So, Tracy, we've been watching, we've been watching from afar this amazing story.
Can you tell us from the beginning?
I mean, let's start with the national anthem.
When the girls' soccer team was out, we had just started bombing Iran, and the soccer team is standing on the field.
The national anthem is played, and they don't sing.
Start there.
How shocking was that?
And how much trouble were they in?
And did they?
Well, they're in a lot of trouble.
Yeah, so if I rewind even further, back in the Qatar FIFA World Cup in 2022, the men's team did the same thing.
They had turned up to play on the back of a massive protests in their country.
And when the anthem played, they did not sing.
They were then instructed they must sing by game two, otherwise they would face consequences when they got back home.
So when the women did the same thing, it was an act of bravery.
It was a real statement.
But I think we also need to pull back and look at the wider context.
As you say, 48 hours earlier, the bombing campaign had started in their country.
So their country was essentially at war.
And there were pockets of celebrations in the streets, even here in Australia, where quite a large Iranian expat community lives.
And so there was all of this feeding into them and feeding into where they stood on this.
So game number one, national anthem plays, they don't sing, and there were repercussions.
We know that because by game two, not only had we seen the security apparatus tighten around the team at their team hotel, but by game two, they not only sang the anthem, they also saluted the flag.
Wow.
So any idea?
We've heard rumors, their families, some of them may have been taken or taken in for questioning, or at least the message was sent, you will behave.
We have your families.
Correct?
Yeah, pretty much.
They also had to sign statements before they left, which was tying them from what we believe to some sort of financial commitment that these girls would all return home.
Otherwise, there would be a penalty for the family to pay, financial or otherwise.
And also after the incident, yeah, we also heard from one of the state spokespeople on state television basically saying that these women were not just traitors, they were wartime traitors, the worst of the worst, and they should be punished sufficiently given that tag.
Well, I mean, we know what, I mean, in America, the only crime that comes with a constitutional punishment is traitor.
It's very hard to prove in America, but it is, it's constitutionally required death.
I got to believe that's the kind of punishment they were talking about in Iran.
Yeah, well, you would hate to think that that's what they were going to face, but we're in a situation now where six of the women stayed in Australia.
They have sought asylum and been given visas.
The Australian government offered emergency visas to any female in that team that wanted one.
There was one other who originally accepted one and then changed her mind.
Now, those that didn't accept them have flown to Malaysia.
They were supposed to get on a flight to go onwards to Turkey and then bus across the border into Iran, but they've been prevented from doing that.
They can't find plane access to be able to get back into the vicinity of Iran.
So they're still in Malaysia.
And there are rumors that there are some people in Malaysia now, perhaps another three, who are also seeking asylum.
So what has happened if they do get home?
Do you have any idea why they would have chosen to go home?
Was it family or were they believers in the regime?
Do you know?
Well, we don't know the breakdown of that, but I imagine there may have been some that were regime supporters.
We have seen one woman in particular, one of the players, who has put up a very pro-regime message on her Instagram account.
But you don't know whether that is done through coercion.
But, you know, if you have to think about that choice to make as a young female, do I stay in a foreign land where I don't speak the language and know nobody, but I will have freedom that I do not have at home, or do I go back to my family who was under threat because of my position?
We've also seen a change in state television broadcasting who have said that any girl that comes home will be celebrated as a national hero.
So they're being put in this terrible psychological position where they've got to be, you know, backflipping on what they want and what they think and what they're being threatened with and how they have to pretend if they don't believe.
So I saw one of your reports and I can't believe this is true.
I mean, Donald Trump had to get involved and say, and I hope it wasn't too much pressure that it took, but he said, look, guys, if you don't take them, we will.
But I've heard reports from you that your Secretary of Foreign Affairs have some kind of deal that if somebody wants to defect, that his office has to be alerted and then he alerts the country of origin.
Is that true?
No, that's not true.
No.
So what happens?
Oh, thank God.
I thought, boy, Australia is lost if that's happening.
No, the Home Affairs Minister has just stated that, you know, the government, they can't coerce people into seeking asylum.
So it has to come from the person themselves.
And, you know, once that approach has been made, they do everything in their power to facilitate that, which is what happened.
The Home Affairs Minister actually flew to the Gold Coast where the team was staying to be able to meet with those who were seeking asylum.
And then they did organise within the next 48 hours or so individual meetings with each of the girls to determine which way they thought to try and give them some space away from the very tight security around them who were trying to prevent them from making such decisions.
So President Trump didn't have to get involved?
Well, it was good that he did, I think, because that highlighted the situation to a whole lot of other people and around the world.
It got further headlines because of that.
But the time he rang where he said, you know, basically, if you don't do it, we will, the Prime Minister said to him, thanks very much.
We've already got this under control.
Our Home Affairs Minister is in a room with them right now.
And that's when Donald Trump then put out another truth saying he's got this.
The Australian Prime Minister's all over it.
I saw a video of protesters actually laying down in front of the bus at one point.
And I thought, well, there's a group of protesters I actually applaud for the first time in a long time.
These protesters that were saying, don't ship them back.
Don't allow that bus to move.
Have you seen any, what is the reaction in Australia?
Is it pro-saving them or are you getting pushback?
And, you know, we're unfortunately having terror attacks because of the war here in America.
Are you seeing any signs of trouble for you guys for saving them?
No, but as you know, we've had trouble recently, you know, building up in the last few months.
We've had some attacks on, you know, synagogues.
We've had the Bondi beach shooting.
You know, there is this.
But we've also had, you know, months and months of protests as well.
Terror Attacks Shift Global Focus00:14:54
But, you know, one thing I should mention is the public support for the women's football team of Iran has been overwhelmingly positive and very receptive to the government offering them these asylum visas, these emergency visas.
But at the same time that this was happening, the government took a position where temporary visa holders in the Middle East region, and I think there's about 12,000, maybe more, they have now been restricted.
So even if they have a visa to come here, because they are now at war, they will be restricted.
And it's up to the Home Affairs Minister as to whether he will allow those visas, visa holders to actually come into the country.
So it's like he was giving visas to the women on one hand, but those that already had visas but are not in the country yet are being restricted from coming here.
And that's understandable given that war changes everything.
So FIFA begins in, what, less than 100 days, I think.
What are the ramifications on FIFA?
Because it's co-hosted here in America.
It is, and there's been a lot of focus on America because we know that, again, immigration has been in the news for a long time, you know, deportations as well.
So people were wondering if each of the teams that have qualified would be able to get in there.
The president has said that any qualified team, as long as, you know, the officials and the players pass through rigorous security checks, will be allowed to come in.
The Iran team, on the back of the war, the regime has said it's unlikely we will come.
Then, you know, there were statements coming out of the U.S. saying they were still welcome to come because they have qualified.
And these are notes from FIFA as well.
Then the regime has come out in about the last 24 hours or so and said, how can we come?
That's ridiculous.
We're not coming.
Now, in the last hour, I've seen a statement from the team itself saying, hang on, we're the players.
We qualified.
This only happens once every four years.
We deserve the right to be there.
So there's a lot of different, you know, the narratives are all over the place.
Tracy, I would love to stay in touch with you.
I found your reporting to be just remarkable on this.
And you have a, I know you have a book out.
What is your book called The Dragon?
It's called The Eye of the Dragonfly.
Right, which I'm fascinated to read because you look at the world through the prism of sports.
And I know you've been doing this forever and ever and ever.
And I just really appreciate your outlook and your take on things.
So thank you for joining us.
I appreciate it.
Thank you so much for having me, Glenn.
You bet.

All right.
Our sponsor this half hour is RealEstateAgentsItrust.com.
As we move through 2026, the housing market is starting to shift.
Inventory is actually rising.
Mortgage rates settled down around 6%.
And we could be in for some better news even on that with a new director or head of the Fed.
More sellers are having to drop their asking price or negotiate, which means buyers are starting to have something they haven't had in a while, and that is leverage.
And you want the best real estate agent you can find.
And we have scoured the nation for the best of the best.
We started working with the 500 best real estate agents in the country, according to the Wall Street Journal.
I learned from them.
I asked them, what makes you different?
How can you, like all of our real estate agents, they're having their best two years of their career.
How does that happen when everybody says you can't sell or buy a house?
Because these are the best of the best.
You want somebody like that on your team when it's tough to buy and sell a house.
These are the people we will put you in touch with.
You want to sell your house fast, get the best price for your new house, these are the people to help you do it.

Station ID.
All right.
I want to bring Jason in here, our chief researcher.
He's also the host of the Insider podcast, which happens during this show.
When I go into commercial break, he's covering all the things I just didn't have time to cover.
And you can see that at torch at glenbeck.com slash torch.
Join us now.
But it's, Jason, I just saw a press conference.
I didn't have time to listen to the whole thing from Pete Hegseth.
And then that coupled with Donald Trump.
His message on True Social last night, which was, wait till you see what happens to these monsters tomorrow.
We're expecting a big day, are we not?
Yeah, the president was tweeting last night to wait and see what happens today.
And as you said, that was followed up with Pete Hegseth.
It's very interesting if you look at this in context with what the Israelis are now doing in Iran.
The Israelis are now releasing drone footage.
They're flying drones unimpeded over skies like the capital in Tehran.
And they are picking off systematically one by one IRGC checkpoints within the city and other like hardened areas that the regime would use to push back against protesters and demonstrators if the Iranian people, if and when the Iranian people come out.
So this is a wild, I guess, development in the entire war because if you look where this is going, this will essentially be where the demonstrators, where they didn't have this capability before, obviously, but they will essentially be able to call in airstrikes, which I don't think has ever been done before in any kind of situation like this.
Population?
No.
No.
It really is wild, but that's what we're looking towards.
And you also look in the context of the crown prince who said just a couple days ago to continue to stay in your homes, but to get ready for the eventual day.
It's coming.
So that's what I'm looking for.
This weekend is going to be a big weekend.
Here in the United States, we had a synagogue targeted last night.
We had a university, Old Dominion, targeted yesterday.
And I want to get into all of the details.
In a nutshell, Jason, recap those.
So we had in Michigan, we had basically a 1-B car bomber.
He had explosives reportedly in his vehicle, ran into the temple that had an act of preschool going on at the time.
But he rammed in per reports, jumped out, and it sounds like he began shooting, and then security guards engaged and took him down.
Now, he was from Lebanon originally, and reports say that he was angry over airstrikes or people of his family that were killed over there.
But when you look at that in terms of the other attack later, Old Dominion shooter, he had already been in trouble for ISIS-related stuff.
I'm not entirely sure why he was let out, but then goes in and starts shooting up the place, and he's taken down by ROTC members at Old Dominion.
Just an amazing story.
I cannot wait to hear more on the actual ROTC people that responded.
But this is now- You know what?
Anybody who's ever said, oh, you're ROTC, you need to apologize to those guys.
They were snails yesterday.
Oh, tough as well.
Rendered him unalive yesterday without guns.
I love that verb.
Rendered him unalive.
Oh, like unhoused.
Okay.
In other words, they beat him to death, which I'm not all that against, quite honestly, in that case.
All right.
This, to me, is a pivot point.
Because of these attacks, it's a pivot point.
And so I'm going to tell you, in no uncertain terms, what you're facing, the clearest and a change in stance, if you will, on war next.
Let me tell you about our sponsor.
It's Patriot Mobile.
Sometimes, you know, sticking to your principles is really hard.
You know, the ones where you're standing by, you know, standing by what you believe is costing you something.
Maybe it's just being uncomfortable.
Maybe it puts you in the minority.
Maybe it means you have to walk away from something.
But every now and then, standing by your principles actually matters.
And if you are doing business with one of the big three mobile phone companies, they are doing business with groups that you do not like, that are not supporting the values and the principles that you support.
So choose a company that is supporting those and helping you in the fight.
Because it's not just a cell phone service that you're getting.
When you're picking one of the big threes, you're getting in league with people who are not helping in the direction you want to help.
But Patriot Mobile is.
So switch right now.
Every month, your bill will help fund great things: faith, family, the Constitution.

March 19th, Torch debuts its first live special that will probably get Glenn in a lot of trouble.
Join today at glennbeck.com slash torch to see it.
I want to give you a couple of pieces of audio here from the FBI yesterday during a press conference after the shooting at Old Dominion University.
The FBI gave an update.
And here is cut one from the FBI on the terrorist shooter at Old Dominion, Virginia.
I can tell you that we have confirmed reports that prior to him conducting this act of terrorism, he shouted Al-Arstated Al-Akbar.
And he was formerly a subject of an FBI investigation in material supporting terrorism.
I'd like to know when that actually happened.
Was that under the Biden administration or the Trump administration?
Because I know that one administration likes to excuse people who are like, oh, well, you know, they're not really terrorists.
I'd like to know exactly what happened to that investigation from the FBI.
When it happened, will tell us an awful lot.
And here is the FBI again on the students, the ROTC, that stopped the shooter.
Listen.
There were students who were in that room that subdued him and rendered him no longer alive.
I don't know how else to say it, but they basically were able to terminate the threat.
So he was not shot.
He was not shot.
He shot three people.
Correct.
We have information that he shot three people.
And he's no longer alive.
Amen.
Now, in Michigan, we had another terrorist attack, this time on a synagogue.
And I'm going to later talk to you about what happened there and how the media, New York Times, MSNBC, or whatever the hell they're calling it now, what they are now saying, who's responsible?
And I'll give you two guesses: Jews and Republicans.
If that's what you guessed, you're absolutely right.
We'll get into that here in a minute.
But I want to spend some minutes being very, very clear on something because you are now going to start hearing blame on this, all these terror attacks, because more are coming.
And all these terror attacks, you know, they didn't have to happen, yada, yada, yada.
So let me be very clear.
Please hear me, America.
Please hear me on this.
The war in Iran did not begin yesterday.
Yesterday was a pivot point, and I'll explain in a minute, but it didn't begin, you know, with Donald Trump declaring war, didn't with the latest missile strike or the intelligence briefings or the latest headlines scrolling across your phone.
That's not when it started.
This war began in 1979 when the Shah fell and the Marxist students gathered with the Islamists.
They worked together to destabilize Iran and overthrow the country of Iran.
When the diplomats were blindfolded from America and marched through the gates of the embassy and they held them there for 444 days, that's when this started.
From that moment forward, Iran declared something really simple and they've been shouting it and chanting it in their streets since 1979.
Death to America.
They chanted it.
And every president from Reagan to Bush to Clinton, all of them, even those who were just candidates, including Hillary Clinton and Al Gore, have all said the same thing.
Iran is the central engine of terror in the modern world.
They are a death cult.
And all of them have said on both sides of the aisle, if it's not stopped, the day will come when we're going to face a nuclear-armed Iran.
The diagnosis has been delivered by doctor after doctor that the American people have hired.
And it's the same thing.
And I think those doctors, those presidents, have all in their own way been a little bit cowardice.
And maybe they made the decision.
I'm not going to say that they were cowards.
They didn't have the guts to pull the trigger because they thought there were other options on the table.
And the American people said, well, maybe it's not that serious.
I'm going to be the doctor that you don't want to hear from today.
I'm sorry.
Islamism, this revolutionary, apocalyptic ideology that is behind the Iranian regime, is cancer.
Islamism is cancer.
Islamism Is Cancer To Body00:09:55
And just like cancer, at first you may not notice it.
You can dismiss the early symptoms.
You can tell yourself that you're just tired or, you know, maybe that lump was there before.
Whatever it is, you tend to go into denial.
Maybe you even begin to blame your own habits.
Maybe I caused this.
I've smoked my whole life.
I didn't eat right.
I'm just probably overreacting.
All of these things.
That's normal to happen.
But cancer does not care about your denial.
In fact, it's its favorite environment to grow in.
While you're denying it, it continues to grow.
And it grows while you argue whether or not it even exists.
And it spreads as you debate with yourself whose fault is it.
It feeds while you reassure yourself that everything is still basically normal.
All the while, it's doing one thing.
It is eating the healthy parts of your body.
It is taking it cell by cell.
Slowly, quietly, patiently, it is just eating.
And one day, you go to the doctor and the doctor looks at the scan and says something that you never ever want to hear.
It's no longer isolated.
It's everywhere.
At that point, you have a choice to make.
And that's the pivot point.
That's where we are right now.
It is everywhere.
And so now your options change.
Okay, the treatment has to change.
It's no longer a simple surgery that you could have had a few years ago.
It's something much, much harsher.
It becomes radical because the cancer has become radical.
So now you need chemotherapy and radiation and radical invasive surgery.
None of these are good.
None of these are going to make you feel good, but it's designed to purge the body of something that is eating you from the inside out.
And each of the treatments are brutal, but let me just concentrate on one.
Let me just talk to you about chemo.
Let me liken chemo to what we're facing right now, this war and the effects of it.
Okay?
So war is the chemo that we're putting through.
The hair falling out is the terror attacks that you're seeing.
Now, you have a choice.
Are we going to treat this or not?
Are we just going to deny that it was really a problem?
But really, the choice is this.
Do you want to live or not?
Because when the cancer becomes this bad, that is the choice.
Do you want to live or do you want to just live your remaining days feeling good?
But they're going to be short days.
Chemo will weaken you.
And it is.
It will weaken us.
It will make you sick.
We'll have protests in the streets.
We'll be arguing with each other.
We will deplete our armed forces.
It's going to make us weaker.
We will lose hair, all kinds of effects that we really don't want.
We'll be vomiting all the time.
Those things are the terror attacks that are happening, and you will feel worse during the treatment.
And then some people will say, which in a very narrow sense is absolutely true.
You know what?
We were better off before the chemo started.
That's absolutely true.
You were kind of.
Kind of.
You were dying, but you were feeling better.
But if you wouldn't have done anything, you were dead.
In a very short period of time, you'd be dead.
Now, it doesn't matter.
And it may even piss the patient off when the doctor like I come in, come in and tell the truth.
But here's the truth.
None of this had to happen.
We didn't have to do this.
I've been on the air for 50 years.
So I've been on the air.
In fact, I was on the air a couple of years before we went into, or before they took our hostages in Iran.
I've been talking about Iran forever.
And if we would have done the things at the time we should have, none of this would have happened.
But now we have no good options left.
There's nothing.
It's death or this.
And that's where we are.
And this confrontation is not a sudden war, okay?
It's 47 years of ignored warnings, finally reaching the stage where the disease can no longer be contained with polite diplomacy and hopeful secrets.
And so the side effects are ugly.
There will be retaliation.
There will be terror.
There will be more terror attempts and more terror.
There will be economic shocks.
Okay?
But we weren't better than we were before we started the treatment.
We were just in denial and the effects of it being in every organ of our body was just starting to show signs of a problem.
But if you waited and continued to do nothing, it would kill us for sure.
Now, what would have happened if Ronald Reagan, one of my heroes, would have gone in and said, Beirut, nothing, and punish them at that point?
He didn't.
He said, we can negotiate.
We can do all kinds of things.
The tumor was small.
We'll try other things.
We chose to delay.
We chose negotiations for the last 47 years without consequence.
We chose sanctions without enforcement.
We chose to hope that cancer just might stop growing.
It would choose to stop growing.
Cancer never makes that decision because cancer to live must feed on something.
And so it's spread through Hezbollah and Hamas and the Houthis, through militias in Iraq and Syria, now in our universities, now in our media.
It's infected every organization, our government, it's in our neighborhoods, it's in many of American mosques.
It's here, gang.
And it is the most radical form of cancer.
And the body of Western civilization has a long history of fighting this kind of cancer.
And so we have a long history of knowing what happens if it goes untreated.
So yes, what comes next is going to make you vomit.
It's going to make your hair fall out.
It's going to make you feel like crap.
It's going to be painful.
And here's the thing you really don't want to hear.
And because we waited so long, we may die anyway.
But if the body has a chance of survival, it must be cut out completely.
And every cell, you know, when the surgeons go in for surgery like this, when they think they're finished, they leave the body open and they say, send everything out and let's look at the margins.
And then they get it back.
Did they cut everything?
Because if there's one cell of the cancer left behind, it grows back and it grows stronger, more aggressive, and more determined.
And you're in the same situation.
This is where we're at now, America.
This is it.
This is what history is demanding of Western civilization right now.
Not denial, not delay, not pretending the diagnosis is wrong or never came, not pretending that cancer maybe isn't so bad.
Doctors have warned us for 40 years.
The patient is finally open on the operating table.
And like it or not, the time for debate is over.
Here's my change.
I have told you this is, you know, I'm not going to, I'm not trying to sway you and I'm still not trying to sway you, but I have not been clear where I stood.
Today, after the terror attacks yesterday, I'm very clear.
I'm very clear.
The body is open.
The surgery has begun.
Whether you were for the surgery or against the surgery, the body is on the table and the surgeons have their hands and their scalpels in and they are cutting the cancer out.
This isn't exploratory surgery.
You know, back when I was growing up, before we had CAT scans and everything else, you had exploratory surgery where they just cut somebody open.
We think he might have cancer.
Cut them open.
The worst thing that would happen is the surgery would be very short and the doctor would come out and say, we just sewed him back up.
It's too far gone.
Okay?
We're already in the surgery.
We know exactly how bad this cancer is.
We're not exploring to see how bad.
We know how bad it is.
And this might sound like a justification for war, but it is not.
It is a justification for getting all of the margins.
You already have the body open.
So it doesn't matter.
Do you think it gets better or worse if we now sew the body back up?
Do you think they learn the lesson of, oh, we better not screw with America?
Or do they learn the lesson, you just hit them and they're such cowards, they're so weak, they will never come for us.
It doesn't go away.
It only reinforces what Reagan sent in Beirut.
It only gets worse.
And we're all in denial if we think we didn't know exactly what we're dealing with.
My question to you today is, are we really at the point in our country where we have family members, our brothers and sisters, saying stop the surgery, sew him back up and let him die?
Are we really in that place?
Or can we find ourselves growing back into a nation that is strong enough to say, this patient is worth saving?
It's worth the radical steps that we have to take and the pain we will endure because life, this life, is worth saving.
That's your choice, America.

Glenn Beck is back in a minute.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
It's Al-Quds Day in Iran, and the top security advisor for Iran is marching in the Al-Quds parade, which should be interesting.
I mean, it's a, I mean, march in a parade, go to a meeting.
I don't know which one's more dangerous right now, but good luck with that.
Something big is happening either today or this weekend.
We will have our eyes on it and keep you informed.
One of our insiders said, Glenn, when is your son going to join the military?
I'd like to answer that when we come back.
War affects supply chains.
And right now, one of the most important shipping routes in the world, the Strait of Hormuz, along Iran's southern border, is under massive strain.
About 20% of the world's oil passes through it.
And when conflicts in that region happen, it is effectively closed right now.
Consequences will ripple out fast.
Air freight costs have already soared by as much as 400%.
Some shipping routes now require detours that add close to a million dollars to a single voyage.
And those costs are passed right along to you.
Experts are warning that this could escalate before it even starts to settle down.
What happens the next time you need a prescription and the pharmacy can't get it?

Their Jace case provides 10 essential antibiotics and emergency medications prescribed online and shipped directly to your door and you'll have them before you need them.

Hello, America.
Two attacks in one day here on U.S. soil.
Two terror attacks in one day.
Synagogue targeted and an American university turned into a battlefield for a few terrifying moments.
But there's some things that happened that tell us a lot about who we are or who we are becoming.
I'll get into that and all of the details of those attacks yesterday.
Also, I want to respond to somebody who's a Torch subscriber, Robin.
She wrote in, and I think maybe some of the Torch subscribers are hammering her for this question, and they shouldn't.
I mean, it's a logical question, and I want to answer it.
Last hour, I said, you know, in so many words, no, I think it was pretty clear.
We're in this war now.
Whether you are for it or against it, it doesn't really matter.
We are now in this war, and we are fighting cancer.
And the effects of fighting cancer are horrific.
They're horrific.
And what you're experiencing, it's like war is chemotherapy.
And all of the terror strikes, all of the debates, all of the protests, all of this stuff, it's part of the effects of chemotherapy, if you will.
And we're in it.
And it's too late to pull out at this point because what do we teach?
Let's learn from history.
What did Ronald Reagan teach Iran and Osama bin Laden by pulling out after the Beirut bombing?
He taught them America will bow to terror.
You cannot reverse course at this point.
We should all band together to fight, fight it with everything we have and get out of there as soon as we can.
But just know, it's going to get harder before it gets easier.
And so Robin said, well, when is your son?
When is Baron Trump?
When are they going to join the military?
And I want to directly answer that in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

So Robin said in the torch insider, which by the way, please join the community.
It's really an amazing community and there's all kinds of benefits to joining at Glenbeck.com slash torch.
It's a really cool community and you get specials.
For instance, today I think we're releasing the podcast from, oh, what's his name, Cloud?
Value Life Over Enemy's Life00:16:08
Help me out.
Bill Cloud.
Bill Cloud.
Bill Cloud, who did a podcast with me on Monday that The Insider saw live.
And it's an hour conversation, maybe an hour 15, about biblical prophecy and what it says about this time and Iran and what we're really dealing with.
And it is an amazing thing.
And the insiders, because it only aired live and then we took it back to produce it for the podcast.
And they've been talking all week to those who haven't seen it yet.
They're like, you've got to watch this.
It's coming out Thursday.
You've got to watch it.
What's it going to be posted?
When's it going to be posted?
Posted tonight?
No, last night at 6 p.m.
So you get it before everybody else.
In this case, a week before.
And then you also, you can see it, this podcast tomorrow, wherever you get your podcast on YouTube or whatever.
We'll post it tomorrow afternoon.
But next week, there is a special on the blueprints of our destruction.
Because what we are witnessing now is the final phases of the Islamization of the Western world.
It is happening, whether you like it or not.
And we have to fight it.
And the key to fighting it is to understand it.
And nobody is willing to really tell you what's going on.
Thank God for social media because you can see videos.
And we've been showing some of these videos.
In fact, let me show one of them here real quick.
And then I'm going to get to Robin's point.
But how do you expect not to have all kinds of terror attacks in a country where you have Muslims here in the U.S.?
Here's one of them.
Here in the U.S. talking about why Islam is here in the U.S. Cut six.
Why am I migrating here?
Why am I in America?
The Prophet's companions left Mecca to go to a land that had no Muslims.
We are in this country purely for the sake of Allah.
The moment you make this intention, you will look at things different.
People will meet you different.
How could it be that your co-workers know you as a Muslim for 10 years, not once you presented Islam to them?
You don't know why your purpose is here.
Are you guys together?
We are in this country for Allah.
As we're here living in the U.S., what is our role now?
What is the way forward?
Let me just quote for you an ayah of the Quran, and I'm going to try to encapsulate it.
Allah is saying, do not obey the disbelievers.
Don't yield to them.
And then he gives us the process of what to do next.
And so make jihad against them.
What is your duty as a member of the Ummah now that you are also an American?
It is our physical jihad duty to fight the entire earth until we enter it into the ummah.
Until the whole world is under Islam.
That is the plan.
Like it or not, that is the plan.
And we are in this war, whether you like it or not.
If you choose to be awake and see it, we have a chance of survival.
If you choose to continue down this road of denial, of acquiescence, we're dead.
We're all dead.
The Western world is dead.
Look at Europe.
It's over, gang.
It is over.
They don't have the...
Germany just tried to raise their army.
They couldn't because anyone who was going to join was a young foreign national.
They don't have enough young German men to join the army and they're not going to hand them guns and weapons and all of this information over to people who are not even citizens.
It's over.
It's over.
The question is, are you over?
You have to watch this special.
Join TorchNow, Glennbeck.com slash torch.
That special is next Thursday.
Believe me, we've worked four months on this.
You don't want to miss this.
It's truly amazing.
Okay, so I can talk a big game.
And I think this is what Robin was saying in a nice way.
She was saying, you know, Glenn, okay, so her exact quote was, when is Baron and Glenn's son going to join the military?
Well, I can't speak for President Trump and I can't speak for Barron.
I can speak for my son.
My son and I had that conversation this week, this week.
If you don't know what you want to do, if you really, if you might want to consider, now is the time to join the military.
Why would you say that to your son?
We're at war.
Because I believe we have a president who's not going to put our soldiers through an endless meat grinder without any thought.
He is not going to send a single soldier out without the ability to shoot back and kill them.
Okay.
If you're going to go into war, you want to go in with a warrior.
You want to go in with somebody who is saying, I value your life over the enemy's life.
And I'm going to take care of you and do everything I can to equip you to survive while you're in that environment.
He could be out in two years.
Yes, he might be.
He might be.
And if we switch directions in two years, we are so screwed.
We're so screwed.
But here's what people don't understand from the left.
And I give Robin the benefit of the doubt.
I'm not saying she's on the left by any stretch of the imagination.
And please don't hammer her, insiders, don't hammer her.
She's probably speaking from the place of a mother and maybe a mom who has already faced this before and it didn't work out well.
So she's coming from a place, for instance, I was just telling Ricky this story off the air and I said, Rafe and I had this conversation.
And he said, what did Tanya say?
And I said, we're not having that conversation with Tanya.
You don't bring your mom in on that kind of conversation at that early stage.
You don't because you know how moms are going to react.
What are you talking about?
No, But people who are cut from our cloth actually believe in something.
We don't necessarily, we can look at the military as one of the benefits of great education, great discipline.
You'll have a different outlook on life and probably a better outlook on life if you've gone through the military.
But we also know that means you got to serve your country.
And that may mean that you're fighting a war in today's world.
That's what that may mean.
This is why people in red states join the military and blue states don't.
Because when you join, if you're in a leftist mentality, generally you think military is stupid.
The people who join it are losers.
And the only reason to get into it, not for your child, but maybe for a minority child, they can join the military to get free education.
That's not what that is.
It's not what that is.
And I believe that conservatives, whether they live in red states or blue states, they understand that.
And so they know the cost going in.
But you don't have that conversation with your mom at first.
You have that dads and their sons have that conversations.
And then they sit at the table with mom at the table.
And, you know, that's when your son will say something like, dad and I have been talking about the military.
And then your wife looks at you and you look at your son like, you're dead to me.
Why would you say you and I have been talking about this?
You and I it's because they're stupid.
They're young.
They haven't been married yet.
They don't know you don't say things like that to your mom.
You just bring it up, son.
You just bring it up.
You know, I've been thinking about what do you guys think?
Anyway, because now you've started another war in the house.
Rafe and I had this conversation this week, that it is a viable option.
And now is the time, if you ever thought about it, now is the time to get in.
So I don't, I would never, I mean, gosh, if you've listened to me for long at all, you know I cry over Kleenex commercials.
I cry on everything.
You don't think I feel empathy when we're sending people into battle?
You don't think that I don't think of the sons and the daughters and the moms and the dads that have lost their kids or could lose their kids?
I said to you just when Trump started this and decided, green light, go in, take care of this.
I said to you, I couldn't do that.
I could not be the president of the United States.
That was first, my first thought.
I could not be the president of the United States because I don't think I would have the courage, knowing what you know about war, I wouldn't have the courage to say these millions of lives are all going to change because of my decision.
I just don't think I could do it.
It would take massive amounts of prayer and God going, would you finally listen to me?
Before I would have the courage to do it.
So anybody who is making a case for war and would not send their kids in themselves, don't listen to them ever.
Don't ever listen to them.
Anybody who hasn't, who doesn't have real respect for the military and looks at the military, especially those war-hardened leaders, the ones who are generals now, but have been through war over and over and over again, if they look at them like they're just warmongers, don't listen to them.
Those guys have been.
They've been there.
They know what that meat grinder is.
They're the least likely to want to go into war.
They don't want it because they know what it means.
But what this means is fight it or die from the cancer that is Islamism.
That's it.
We have Islamists here.
They're in all of our institutions.
They're in our government.
They have put us to sleep.
They have told us and fed us lies that there are nothing to worry about, nothing to see here.
And it's time for us to grow up.
It's time for us to grow up.
Not because I want this war, not because I endorse this war, but because I am at the point, and I would hope that a lot of people are coming to this point, where you don't now have a choice.
Whether you wanted to be there or not, you got to do it.
You may have been against this, but let me ask you, what happens if we stop right now?
Do you think the terror attacks in the country get worse or better?
Do you think we have taught the people who want to attack us here in America that they shouldn't do that?
Or if we would fold up our tent and go home and say, okay, we're sorry, do you think that would make them more emboldened or less emboldened?
I mean, just critical thinking here on this.
It's happening.
So now, what are you going to do about it?
What are you going to do about it?
Especially, you know, because we don't know anything.
You know, today is Al-Quds Day.
And this was a holiday started by the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979.
And Al-Quds Day in Iran is a celebration of Al-Quds, okay?
The liberation of Al-Quds.
Quds is Jerusalem.
So this is the celebration of the liberating army that will march in and liberate Jerusalem.
That's the IRGC is, they also have the Iranian Al-Quds force.
That's the Jerusalem army that will march in, kill all the Jews.
That's what you're dealing with here.
It's not like, oh, we just wanted to coexist.
No, Kill all the Jews.
Then kill all the Americans.
Little Satan, great Satan.
And they've been saying that, and they're clear.
And anybody who doesn't take people who want, let me just, again, let me just put you in this quick situation.
You're living next door to a neighbor who moves in, and then they move in, they say, they pop their head over the fence and say, I'm going to kill you, and I'm going to kill every member of your family.
And you're like, dude, I don't even know what are you talking about?
I don't want any trouble with you.
I'm going to kill you and every member of your family.
Would you just ignore that?
First, you'd call the police.
And if the police said, well, call us if there's a problem, but I can't do anything about him saying, would you take steps to protect yourself and your family?
Would you be prepared if that person ever came across that fence?
Would you take them seriously?
Because if you didn't take them seriously, you would be the one responsible for your family's death.
Because anyone who says that to you with meaning every day, they're going to kill you.
What do you do about it?
More in just a second.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
Our sponsor this half hour is the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Imagine for a moment trying to keep a small light burning in a strong wind.
You cup your hands around it.
You do everything you can to keep that little flame from going out.
That is the picture of Jewish history, quite honestly.
For thousands of years, there has been a mighty wind that has been blowing.
And everybody's been trying to blow that candle out.
And now, even in our own country, I have to talk about this if I have time today.
I saw a podcast where somebody actually said, how do we even know Jesus was a Jew?
Can you prove Jesus was a Jew?
Can you prove Jesus?
What?
What math are you working from now?
Wait, we have got to go there first?
The anti-Jew thing that is going on is so dangerous.
And by the way, MSNBC, yesterday, you know who they blamed the shooting of the synagogue or the bombing of the synagogue on yesterday in Michigan?
The Jews, because that synagogue's been around since 1922 or something, and they've always been for the Jewish state.
So that Jewish synagogue apparently called this on because they've always been for the Jewish state.
Then CNN, somebody on CNN said, you know whose fault this is?
It's the right, because look at all the anti-Semitism on the right.
They've never mentioned it, you know, with all the Marxists, but it's the right.
And you know what?
In some ways, I kind of buy into that one because you are spreading that poison just as much as the Marxists and the Islamists are.
It's time to stand up, take a stand, know where you stand.
Right now, you can rush life-saving essentials, food and medicine, and bomb shelters, little portable bomb shelters, to the people in Israel.
Give $45 right now.
Just call 888-488-IFCJ.
That's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, 488-888-488-IFCJ, or online at iscj.org.
10 seconds stationary uh let me see I can, let me see.
Should we go to Roseanne in Florida real quick?
I've only got a couple of minutes here.
Roseanne, go ahead.
I'll make it brief, sir.
I'm the mother of Colonel in the Air Force.
He's an F-35 pilot.
He's wanted to be a fighter pilot since he was 10.
I've been across this country at many, many Air Force bases.
Air Force Pilot Roseanne Call00:15:43
We have some incredible, wonderful young people who serve this country.
None of us resent or feel bad about your son or Robinson not joining right now.
Maybe it's got to be in their heart.
It's got to be in their fiber.
It does.
That is, you know, that's the one thing.
You know, the Democrats are always for a draft.
Republicans are not for a draft.
Don't draft people.
I don't want, if my son is in the military, I don't want somebody watching his back that doesn't want to be there.
I want somebody who wants to be there, is team-minded, and wants everyone to come home together.
That's what we want.
Thank you so much for your call.
More in just a second.
And your phone call, 888-727-BECK.
By the way, thank you to KFYI for hosting me and Ryan, our engineer here in Phoenix, for being here as I'm on the road.
Let me tell you about Mercury One.
You and I are on a mission and not the kind with a military uniform or a title or something, just something that is really, really simple.
Just trying to be somebody that can help decide what the world can be like.
What kind of world are we going to build?
Every day, you have two different paths, two different options in front of us.
People looking away from suffering and people who are rolling up their sleeves and stepping in when it comes to people suffering.
That one leads to action, and that's what Mercury One is all about.
When disaster strikes, we mobilize quickly.
We deliver relief.
Communities are struggling.
We help provide the resources need to rebuild and recover.
We have flown Americans out of hotspots all over the world that have gotten trapped.
When nobody else could do it, we were there.
We have provided medical assistance.
We've done surgery behind enemy lines when nobody could do it.
We found a way to do it.
And your dollars help us do it.
It's mercury1.org.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
I've got an important monologue or something to share with you here in about half an hour.
You don't want to miss it.
So stand by.
First, let me get through some of the news of the day.
First of all, I asked Ricky, one of our executive producers, the Queen Bee.
I'm going to start calling her HRH, what is it, Her Royal Highness.
Yeah, Hillary Roden.
HRH, Her Royal Highness.
She has, I asked you last hour, can you find out the guy who did the Dominion shooting?
He was in jail because he was trying to coordinate or do something with ISIS.
And he was supposed to spend 11 years in jail.
And I have my guess on when he was released from prison because he was released from prison very early.
He didn't spend 11 years in prison.
When was he released?
Under which pressure do you think?
Sorry, Jolo, if I'm mispronouncing your name, but he's dead.
He was released from federal custody December 23rd, 2024, right at the end of Biden's term.
This news report said it wasn't immediately clear why his release from prison was moved up.
Inmates didn't get time to get to the point.
So if you had to say who is Joe Biden, if you had who is Joe Biden in your final jeopardy question, you know who released him from prison.
I'd like to know why.
I'd like to know why.
But I'm glad that stuff, at least in some states, has stopped and from the federal government because that was a federal release of this guy.
He's dead today.
Thank you, R-O-T-C.
Let me bring Jason in, our chief researcher, and he is our head writer as well and has been working with our research team and also Ryan Morrow's research team and a couple of others putting together next week's special on the blueprint of the Islamic destruction of the West that happens next Thursday on torchglenbeck.com slash torch.
Let me ask you a couple of things.
First of all, can you tell me about the numbers station?
I've been hearing talk about number station, which is something from the Cold War, if I'm not mistaken, where they were just coded messages that would pop up at certain times of the day, and they would just be a series of numbers, and nobody could ever break the code.
The East would do it.
We would do it.
And right as the bombing started, a number station popped up and it was in Arabic, I believe, right?
Farsi.
It was in Farsi.
Farsi.
Okay, yeah, Farsi.
I'm sorry.
So it was in Farsi.
So that's what gave everybody the belief that maybe they were sending out a coded message saying, hit them.
Now's the time to hit them.
We don't know what they said, but can you explain the number station thing?
Yeah, so the number stations were used during, as you said, during the Cold War, and it's something that was used for highly sensitive communications that one country, whether it was NATO country, U.S. or the Soviet Union, would send out all over the world.
People always kind of assumed it was meant for maybe sleeper agents or instructions for people outside the country to do something.
And they didn't want to.
Like you said, it's very random.
It's just numbers.
And the numbers, I think, are not really, I don't think you can break it because they're completely random.
I don't think it's mathematical.
It just goes towards some kind of other code that they have.
The numbers could represent words out of books or who knows what, but you're not going to be able to break it very easily, if at all.
But that's where it started in the Cold War.
When this started off with strikes against Iran, that same day, this number station went active, broadcasting in Farsi.
And the weird intrigue to this is we don't know who started this.
We don't know if the Iranians started this, broadcasting this meant to go out of the country, or if this was something like a PSYOP that we did trying to broadcast in Farsi numbers into the country.
We don't know.
But five days later, after this started, just five days later, somebody tried to jam this signal.
Again, we don't know if the Iranians are trying to jam it or if we are trying to jam it.
We don't know anything about that.
Okay, so by the way, the jamming would take a state actor, right?
Typically, yes, a state actor, someone with the means, but that would usually be like a nation state.
Okay.
Or, you know, Bezos or Elon Musk or somebody who now has more money than the United States will ever have.
Okay.
All right.
One other thing.
We talked about that.
We talked about this about an hour ago.
And if you missed hour number one, you don't want, you want to go back and you want to listen to today's full podcast because today's full podcast, we started with some good news.
I talked to the lady who was there with the Iranian soccer team.
And she's an Australian sports broadcaster.
And she's been covering this from start to finish.
And the tale she told right at the beginning of the show is amazing.
But then I made a very, very clear statement on what we're actually facing and how clear we have to be on what we're facing.
But in that hour, we spent a few minutes on what President Trump said last night after these two terror attacks.
And he said, you know, look what happens to these dirtbags starting.
Did he say starting tomorrow or tomorrow, something like that?
Today.
So today.
Today.
Was he talking about the people that we think are sleeper cells here, or was he talking about over there?
Or do we know?
Well, I think the answer is we don't really know, but it sounded like he was talking in the context of over there.
And this morning, Secretary of War Vegset and General Kane echoed exactly what the president said.
They said, today will be the most intense strikes in Iran.
So that's probably what he was referring to.
But whatever they're shaping on the battlefield, there's going to be a big stage today.
And it's interesting if you look at what we are targeting and what Israel is now targeting in this phase of the attacks.
They're a bit different.
We're targeting regional assets the way for Iran to project power outside the country.
What Iran is now doing is they're targeting specific security locations inside the capital of Tehran.
That's how big the air superiority is right now.
They actually have drones hovering over the capital city of Tehran, and they're taking out military checkpoints, places that could hinder protest and demonstrator movements if that starts sometime soon.
And the signs look like it might.
So what's really amazing is you don't have to necessarily have troops on the ground.
If the people take to the streets and they're not armed, but if you have control of the airspace and you have drones, imagine you're out on the street as a protester and there's a bunch of you.
And here comes the IRGC marching down the street with their guns and they're going to start.
You have a drone up in the sky that is armed that can take them out.
Do you know how fast that country will fall, the IRGC will fall?
If the people get on the streets and they see drones providing air cover for them, that'll change the entire country overnight.
Do you think or not?
100%, completely.
And it's unprecedented.
I don't think that we've ever seen anything like that in the history of warfare.
It's a first.
But yeah, that goes to show you where, I mean, we haven't been told all of the full, you know, every single phase of this attack, what they are eventually leading to.
And a lot of people are wondering, what's the eventual goal?
Because the Trump administration has said they're taking out their ability to project power while Israel is concentrating on their part of the fight.
But what does that mean in the future?
And it kind of looks like this is the phase of the battle that we're not really being told about.
And as we said, it would be absolutely unprecedented to see a civilian movement working in conjunction with airstrikes that are happening at the exact same time.
It could be a very big weekend if they are moving that fast.
We have a podcast that I did, The Insiders heard on Monday when I did it live.
And those who listened to it live have been saying all week, when is this coming out?
When is this all coming out?
And The Insiders got it last night and it's finished and it's available now at glenbeck.com slash torch.
But you can hear it tomorrow, wherever you get your podcast.
Just go to YouTube tomorrow and look for the podcast.
I think we released around three, but it is really important.
I talked to Bill Cloud.
And Bill is a pastor who has been studying end times, but most importantly, he's been studying the end times prophecy of the Twelvers.
These are the people that actually run Iran.
And when you understand their ideology, honestly, I don't understand how the leftists aren't for this because they're against everybody who is religious.
You know, if you step in, oh my gosh, that's religious church and state.
We got to separate church and state.
These people are trying to bring in Jesus.
No, no, these people are.
These people are actually, I believe, trying to usher in the Antichrist.
And you'll really understand that when you hear this podcast available right now at glenbeck.com slash torch or tomorrow on YouTube, wherever you get your podcast.
Listen to this.
I was talking to him about the pattern of the Antichrist behavior coming from the Middle East.
And it's older than we think it is.
And he explained it like this.
Listen to this.
I can see how the Arab Spring and Mandani and all these things connect with what scripture has already laid out for us.
But you have to follow the patterns.
Again, if I can take the time, I'll go back all the way to the beginning.
You've got a guy by the name of Cain.
Cain killed his brother.
He didn't listen to what God was trying to tell him to do.
He killed his brother, and then he's sent to wander in the east.
He goes and dwells in the land east of Eden, Nod.
So from the very beginning, you've got this idea that the East is associated with rebels.
It's associated with those who reject the authentic and the true word of God.
The next thing you see in the pattern, and I am trying to make this very concise, but you've got a guy by the name of Nimrod, who takes a group of people who are journeying to the east, it says in Genesis chapter 11.
And this guy, Nimrod, says, now let's all come together.
We know that God has told us to spread out and go subdue the earth, but we're going to come together for one common purpose.
And he builds this place called Babel or Babylon in the East, in the land of Shannar, in Mesopotamia, this region of the world.
So again, the East is associated with people who are basically rebels.
When it says that Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord, literally it says he's a mighty hunter in God's face.
He doesn't pose as, he opposes God.
And this is very early on, it's associated with the East.
So we're in Babylon.
We're in Mesopotamia.
We're in the land of Shannar.
We're in the area that would become Iran, Iraq, and all these different places.
Then we come on down the road, and you've got a guy named Joseph, who is in Egypt.
Don't have time to go through all that story.
Read your Bible.
You'll find out how he got there.
But he is put in a position of power whereby the people of God, Israel, is going to be spared.
And for that matter, everybody during a time of famine.
But there is a dream that Nebuchadnezzar has, excuse me, not Nebuchadnezzar Pharaoh.
There's a dream that he has in which an east wind blows.
And this east wind actually causes everything to be blighted, to be scorched, and it initiates a seven-year famine.
So there's the east is associated with rebels.
The east wind brings this drought.
It's an east wind that brings in a plague of locusts into Egypt later on in the days of Moses that they covered the entire earth.
And so just this little bit in the very beginning of the story, things that are associated with the East.
And we're not talking the Far East.
I'm not talking China and that area.
We're talking about the East, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, these areas, that the Bible starts establishing a pattern that there are things that come from that area that are in opposition to God's purpose.
And so again, this is the spirit of Antichrist starting to show itself.
East Wind Brings Drought Locusts00:15:27
It is, it's a remarkable thing.
And, you know, he describes this, you know, Islamism, that's political Islam, Islamism as a plague and locust.
And I want you to think, think of the no-go zones in Europe.
Think about how they've just been stripped of everything good, how they've been just destroyed, how everything has just been consumed.
It's a remarkable podcast that, you know, if you want to be an adult and think about things, you may not end up agreeing, but you should at least think about it.
What are the times we're living in?
What are we actually facing?
And join us.
That's the podcast tomorrow, available now at glennbeck.com slash torch tomorrow on YouTube.
And then next week, next Thursday night, a special, my very first hour and a half, 90-minute, you know, documentary style live special on the blueprints of our own destruction that Islam is laying out for us.
And we're walking blindly into it.
You don't want to miss that.
More in just a second.
Let me tell you about our sponsor.
Our sponsor this half hour is Rough Greens.
If you've ever watched your dog eat dinner, you know something right away.
They usually don't overthink it.
You put the bowl down and then they look at you like, oh, this again.
And then they eat it.
Okay.
And, you know, they snarf it.
Sometimes, if you're lucky, they snarf it because, you know, your dog is happy just to eat.
You know, he's hungry.
He's not happy that that's the food per se.
I mean, I don't know.
I didn't have a conversation with my dog.
I just know that when I put rough greens on top of it, it changes whatever, the flavor or something.
It's like, it's like dog crack.
They love eating their food.
Uno used to just, he would never eat.
He would snarf that thing down.
And one of my favorite sounds, because I lived with him for six years not eating, you know, having a hard time.
My favorite sound towards the end of his life is when we started fading him rough greens.
I could hear the bowl being slammed up against the wall and his chain hitting the metal bowl.
And I just knew that he was just aggressively attacking that food because he loved it.
And he changed.
He was more active.
He was just better health.
This is what you can get with rough greens.
Don't change your dog's food.
Just add rough greens.
Rough Greens is offering a free Jumpstart trial bag.
You just cover the shipping and they'll send it to you.
Use the discount code Beck and claim your free Jumpstart trial bag and see if your dog doesn't react the way Uno did.
You know, Reagan said back in the 1960s, it's a time of choosing.
And we are at that place again, a time of choosing.
And I want to talk to you about that coming up in just a minute.
What are the choices in front of us?
And your phone call, 888-727-BECK, 888-727-BEC.
More in a minute.
The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
You know, it's six years ago, today, March 13th, 2020, it was Friday the 13th, six years ago, that COVID was declared a national emergency.
And that event changed the world.
I think historians will look back 50 years from now.
I think they, if they're honest, they're already doing it, and saying that completely changed the course of the entire world.
And this weekend and what may happen today in the war with Iran may be another pivot point today.
It's a strange coincidence that they're both happening today, Friday the 13th, six years apart.
Because this is a pivot point.
This is a time of choosing and not for the federal government, but for you, the average American.
What do the events of this week, of this month, of this time period we're living in, what do they mean?
And where do you stand?
The time for choosing is now, and I'll explain here in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor at this half hour.
Our sponsor is Patriot Mobile.
There's a strange thing about modern life.
We've never had more choice, and yet people feel like they don't have a choice at all.
You see it everywhere.
Company announces a new policy or donates to some cause or takes a public stand on an issue and we're like, well, I guess that's the way it is.
I'm going to still buy their sneakers.
Why?
Why are you doing it?
Why?
When you have a choice that is just as good, when it comes to your phone service, you can have the exact same cell service, the same thing because you're on the same towers, except you're not doing business with a company that is standing against your values and principles.
You'll be standing with the world's only Christian conservative mobile phone company that actually uses their time, their off time, and their profits, some of them, to actually do good in the world with things that you agree with.
So, why don't you switch to Patriot Mobile right now?
They offer dependable nationwide coverage, all three major networks.
It's the same.
You're not sacrificing service or coverage.
You're not paying some huge premium to switch.
They're going to make it super easy.

There comes a time in every man's life and every nation's life when it has to stop pretending that danger is just going to fade away.
There comes a time where you hope it never arrives, but I believe it now has arrived, where you can no longer avoid it.
You can no longer say, well, I hope this is pushed off for another 10 or 15 or 20 years and let somebody else deal with it.
America is at that point, I believe, right now.
You know, nearly half a century ago, the world was facing, you know, totalitarian ideology that believed that history belonged to it.
Communism.
It promised a paradise.
It spoke the language of justice and fairness.
And it hid its iron fist behind slogans about equality and peace and all of this garbage.
And a lot of people just insisted that it was misunderstood.
And maybe, to give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe some of them believe that, well, it will work.
It will work, but it never has.
And early on, you can understand those arguments.
You can't anymore.
And by the 1960s, we knew exactly who they were.
You know, even though intelligent people said it was misunderstood, they said if we were patient, if we would just show them respect, if we could just be more accommodating, it would moderate.
History answered that illusion with prison camps and secret police and a wall that cut halfway through a city.
What we're living through right now is very familiar.
It's very familiar.
Another ideology has been growing quietly in the shadows of the modern world, promising utopia.
It speaks the language of faith and grievance.
It literally promises paradise.
It uses the language of justice.
And it has, in the past, hid its iron fist behind slogans about equality and peace.
And again, just like in the past, many intelligent people insist it's just misunderstood.
It's just misunderstood.
Again, if we would just be patient, if we would be respectful, if we would just accommodate, it will moderate.
And unlike communism of the past, which rejected religion, this one wraps itself in religion.
But its goal is just like the communism of the Cold War and the national socialism of the Nazis.
It's just political power and political power over every nation, over every single person, over every single person's individual choices.
And that choice is, that force is Islamism.
That is the political Islamic ideology that insists that government and religion are one.
Government, law, and even your thought must submit to this rigid and quite honestly, very violent religion.
And like communism before it, it promises justice while delivering tyranny.
Like communism before it, it believes history itself is moving inevitably towards their victory.
And it isn't just like communism.
literally joined ranks with communism and the Marxist and the communist and the anarchist in 1979, we can prove it to you on film in Iran.
And for decades we have pretended that it was something else, that it wasn't that.
We called it extremism.
We thought it was just a few angry individuals.
We called it terrorism as though it was only a tactic, misunderstood, marginal, not representative.
But it's not a tactic or just an idea.
Ideas don't fly airplanes into buildings.
People do.
Ideas don't, you know, don't inspire suicide bombers, global terror networks, and regimes that openly chant for the destruction of entire nations.
Ideas drive people to do that.
And the idea behind Islamism is painfully clear.
It teaches that all the world must eventually be governed by a single religious authority.
It teaches that war against unbelievers is justified until that goal is achieved, until you submit.
Submit.
And if you don't, you can be raped, sold into slavery, or killed.
If you don't submit, you can be lied to.
You can be used and abused, and it doesn't matter.
And their God endorses that.
Chaos and bloodshed are not tragedies.
They are a necessary step toward a divine end.
Listen to that.
In the West, we look at bloodshed, we look at war as a tragedy.
We look at it as something that we don't want.
In political Islam, it is a necessary step toward a divine end.
And you know who has joined it?
Those who believe the ends justify the means.
Those who believe in collectives, not the individual.
None of this is a conspiracy theory.
None of this.
You know, when I first started laying this out back in the early 2000s, everybody said I was a conspiracy theorist.
I had nothing to back it up.
And I said, what they're saying backs it up.
But now you see it.
The Red-Green Alliance.
It's there.
And for years, the West has responded with denial.
We convinced ourselves that if we just avoided speaking out about the ideology itself, the problem would shrink.
That maybe if we would just accommodate, it would get better.
We thought, well, we'll use diplomacy and we can negotiate with it.
But ideology does not negotiate with reality.
Reality, it reshapes reality until it fits the ideology.
Have you noticed that's what's happening?
Reality hasn't changed.
Reality is reality.
But your idea of reality has been so hammered and so squashed that it now is reshaped until it fits with an ideology.
But that doesn't make it real.
Makes it a lie.
And every year that we delay in confronting the truth by not calling it out by its name, the movement grows stronger.
Iran's revolutionary regime has spent decades exporting this doctrine all over, arming militias, financing terror groups, destabilizing governments from Lebanon to Yemen, Europe?
Look at the shape Europe's in.
Venezuela, did you know that Hezbollah was off the shore on an island of Venezuela training in Venezuela?
Did you know that Hezbollah is in Mexico?
Is in Cuba?
Why do you think we're going after these people in Cuba and Mexico and Venezuela?
Why do you think he's putting all of that effort into that?
Because we must get that and the Chinese and the Russia out of this.
We are a nation under attack that is sleeping at the switch.
Freedom Versus Submission Today00:05:31
It's here.
We saw it yesterday with terror attacks.
It is here.
It's here.
And other radical networks have spread the same kind of doctrine through the mosques and the media and the universities around the world.
This is no longer a military challenge.
Those days are gone.
This is a civilizational challenge, which means the answer cannot come from bombs alone.
It won't.
It can't.
This no longer is a war.
I've been telling you this for years.
We are in World War III.
You just don't know it yet.
Well, I'm sorry to say, we may be able to put this whoop ass back into its can, but I'm not sure we can.
We open that can up, and I'm not sure we can now.
It may be stronger here and in the rest of the world than we thought it was.
And I'm glad I know it now.
The real battlefield, honestly, is the same one that Ronald Reagan spoke about in the 1960s when he said, it's a time for choosing.
It's a time now to confront communism and on the battlefield of ideas.
It's freedom versus submission.
Individual conscience versus enforced orthodoxy.
Government of, for, and by the people versus ruled by divine decree, interpreted and held hostage by men with guns.
Which do you want?
Because those are the stakes.
You know, the one thing that Donald Trump has done for half of the country is, and I think, I think if you look at the people of Cuba, you see the people in Iran.
You see the people who are now protesting in favor of the United States at the American embassies in Canada.
Did you know that the Iranian people had a pro-America rally in front of the American embassy in Toronto?
Probably never heard that.
They don't want to cover that.
But have you noticed that the West, what the one thing he is doing is while he is destabilizing things, he is also helping us rediscover the confidence that we once had.
The confidence that liberty is not merely one option among many options of government.
Liberty is the only system that protects human dignity.
It allows our faith without coercion.
It allows debate without imprisonment, dissent without death.
You know, when the football players, the Iranian soccer team in Australia, when they didn't sing the national anthem, they were told, you will face consequences because you are now a war traitor.
That meant come home and we're going to execute you.
When we were at war, all these athletes here in America could not only not sing the national anthem, they could turn their back on the flag and take a knee on the field and they just got richer.
That's not oppression, people.
That's dissent without death in a free country.
And when people living under tyranny see the difference as they are beginning to see it right now, that there is somebody willing to stand up.
When they see the difference, history begins to move.
And that's what ultimately defeated communism.
Not military strength, moral clarity.
The fall of the Soviet Union began the day Ronald Reagan stood and said, that is an evil empire and it must not survive.
That ideology is evil and stands against everything that the Western civilization teaches.
And when that truth became real and undeniable and spoken, the ideology collapsed under the weight of its own contradictions.
Now, why could today possibly be any different?
Because it's almost the same ideology, just wrapped in different clothes.
Well, it will happen again if we have the courage to recognize the moment we were all born for.
This isn't a clash with a religion.
This is a struggle with a political ideology that has weaponized religion.
And the choice in front of us right now is the same one Reagan described decades ago.
Whether we accept a slow surrender disguised as tolerance or we stand firmly with the principles that built the free world.
Because freedom has always required vigilance.
It requires the willingness to stand up and defend it in the spoken word and God forbid sometimes with armies, but always with truth.
And every generation is eventually asked the same question.
Will you preserve liberty for those who come after you?
Simply Safe Security System00:02:23
Or are you going to let fear and confusion and denial slowly just trade it all away?
That is the time for choosing.
And I'm sorry to say, I really am, because I'm a lazy guy.
I'm tired.
I think you are too.
That time of choosing is here again.
And it's here today.
More in a minute.
Let me tell you about Simply Safe.
You know, most break-ins don't happen in the middle of the night.
You know, that's the movie version.
In real life, a lot of them happen in the middle of the day when you're at work running errands, you're out, you know, or you're out of town for a few days because criminals aren't looking for a fight.
They're just looking for an empty house that's easy to get into.
That's why a good security system isn't just about what happens when you're home.
It's what happens when you're not home.
Simply Safe built their system around that idea.
Sensors for doors and windows, cameras that let you check in at any time, and optional professional monitoring.
So if something triggers an alert, you're not the only one paying attention.
And one of the best parts is it's designed to be simple, simply safe.
Kind of like the name says.
It's not complicated installation, no more drilling holes through your walls, no long-term contracts that you can't get out, you know, just a simple system that helps make sure your home doesn't look like an easy target and isn't an easy target.
So right now, get 50% off your new simply safe system at simplysafe.com slash Beck.
That's simplysafe.com slash Beck.
There is no safe like SimpliSafe.
10 Second Station ID.
I want to thank KFYI for putting me up today.
I'm in Arizona.
I've got a speech to give, and then I'm going to go see my daughter's show in the Mountain West tonight.
She's in a version of Sound of Music.
So I got to go see that and see my son.
And I'm very excited.
And then I'll be back in Dallas on Monday.
So a lot of traveling this weekend.
But it's all good stuff.
It's all good stuff.
I'm just looking at the things that I really needed to talk about today.
Tucker Carlson Arizona Speech00:02:25
We've talked about a lot of them all the way through.
Did I already mention the Dominion shooter when the Dominion shooter was released under Biden?
Yeah, I did.
Didn't I?
You did.
You know what we have to discuss, though?
Oh, go ahead.
Yep.
Go ahead, Ricky.
The synagogue shooting and how it's our fault.
It's the Jews' fault.
It's Israel's fault.
It's everyone's fault, but the guy who is from Lebanon.
Yeah, here's MS, what is it, MS Now or whatever they're calling it.
Here's MSNBC on the synagogue shooter.
Listen to this, cut three.
Well, the Republican Party is having right now a real fight on its hand, has a real fight on its hands amid wings of the Republican Party that are extremely anti-Semitic or flirting with anti-Semitism and Republicans on the other side of the party who are saying, hold on, what are you doing?
This is not, this is ripping us apart.
Democrats are having a fight on that as well.
But it's been pretty pronounced within the Republican Party.
Yeah, I mean, I think there's Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson alone.
Yes.
I mean, there's there's a bunch of different axes.
Stop here for a second.
This kills me.
We'll get back to the side.
But this really just kills me.
Listen to what she's saying.
The Republicans are having a fight.
And it's very pronounced.
I mean, some of the biggest names are coming after each other.
Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz are coming after each other.
Okay, yeah, absolutely true.
I mean, the Democrats are having their fight, but it's really pronounced.
No, you've given up your fight.
You've already acquiesced.
On the left, you're in it.
You're in full-fledged anti-you are in bed with the Islamists and all of those who say death to Israel.
You're marching with them.
Your fight, you've already lost.
At least we're still fighting.
More in a minute.
All right, let me tell you about pre-born there.
There are moments in life when everything comes down to a single decision, a job offer, a move to a new city, a moment, you ask somebody to marry you, one decision, and suddenly life is moving in a completely different direction.
Scary Time Iran Cuba Tensions00:14:30
Women facing an unplanned pregnancy right now find themselves in one of those moments.
They're scared.
They're overwhelmed.
I mean, I think about this every time I talk to you about pre-born, I think about that there is a mom right now sitting in her car in front of a, hopefully a pre-born clinic, which is usually next door to a Planned Parenthood.
And she's sitting in the car and she feels totally trapped.
She doesn't want to go in.
She doesn't want any.
She doesn't like any of the answers she's faced with.
Hopefully she chooses the door to go into a pre-born clinic because when she walks through there, she's going to get the truth and she's going to get love and compassion and support.
She may not have any support from anybody else in her life.
Everyone's telling her the same thing.
Just get rid of it.
Just get rid of it.
It'll wreck your life.
Blah, blah, blah.
And she didn't know what to do.
She walks in and she gets support, and she can get up to two years of support for food and clothing and everything else the baby might need and starts with an ultrasound.
Would you help pre-born save babies start with a $28 ultrasound provided for a mom for free?

All right, big special coming up next Thursday.
You don't want to miss it.
The blueprint of our destruction.
Next Thursday, glenbeck.com slash torch.
I want to thank KFYI for allowing you to broadcast in their beautiful facility here in Phoenix, Arizona.
I'm here for the day.
I've got to give a speech.
And then I'm traveling this weekend.
I will be in Dallas next week for our big special.
But thanks to Ryan, who has done a great job, as always, when we're here in Phoenix, producing the show and making sure that we're on the air and doing all the engineering.
Let me take Wes, who is an insider on our VIP line who's been holding for a while.
Wes, thank you so much for holding.
How can I help you?
Hey, Glenn, thank you.
We're listening to this 2001.
I appreciate all that you do.
Now, Wes, the economist on the insider track.
Jason's been great.
We love it.
Thank you for doing that for us.
Yeah, we had to give him to somebody that would appreciate him.
He's been wonderful.
We love him.
I know he's great.
Yeah, thank you.
My thought is these sleeper sales are already here.
It's like we just ignore that.
They're going to activate at some point.
We've had them here for years, a lot more the last few years as the borders have been open.
The question becomes: do we wait to Iran to activate them or do we push them into the light and try to deal with them on our terms?
So, which do you think we're doing with what we're doing, our attacks in the Middle East?
I think we're pushing them into the light.
Yeah, I think so too.
I mean, a lot of people will say that, you know, they're only active now because we've pushed them into the light.
And that was a big mistake.
I mean, if you've been listening since the beginning of the show, I did a monologue at the, you know, in the first hour that, you know, I compared radical Islam, Islamism, you know, not radical, just Islamism, with cancer and when you want to take it out.
And, you know, I can't speak for the president, but I do know this.
He promised that he would not play footsie with Iran during his first, when he, in 2014, do we happen to still have that cut from earlier this week?
We found a cut from, I think, 2014 where he was talking about Iran and said, I'm not going to put up with it.
I'm taking them out.
They will not have a nuclear weapon.
Well, you'll notice we didn't go to war with Iran back then.
You have it?
Go ahead and play it.
Here he is, 2014.
I will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons.
And we won't be using a man like Secretary Kerry that has absolutely no concept of negotiation, who's making a horrible and laughable deal, who's just being tapped along as they make weapons right now.
So he tried negotiation during his first term, and he tried negotiation this time.
But I will tell you that in guessing, I'm not justifying, I'm guessing what the president is thinking.
And it's a fairly educated guess.
I've talked to him long enough over the years to know the only thing that really truly scares him is nuclear war.
That terrifies him.
He believes that once one missile is launched, we're in full-fledged nuclear war that is madness.
So that is the only thing I've ever seen him recoil from and be frightened of.
The second thing is he operates on his terms and he is a very good planner.
He puts everything in order.
And he has been, while he's been negotiating, he's been negotiating with the rest of the world, particularly the Middle East.
This would look very different had he just gone in and not laid the groundwork of the Abraham Accords and then come in and had the Council of Peace, had he not made the Arab world have peace with Iran, I mean, sorry,
with Israel and tried to normalize things, if he hadn't have taken out and hit the first strike that he did and showed the strength there and then showed the strength in taking and really harming Hezbollah and Hamas.
If he hadn't have done all those things, this war would look much different than it is right now.
It would have been a nightmare.
Warning, it still may be a nightmare.
But he's putting everything in place.
And he told me before he got into office, I said, can you do all these things?
We weren't even talking about this.
We were talking about the whole picture.
And I said, are you going to be able to get this done in four years?
He laughed at me.
He said, Glenn, I don't have four years.
I have two.
I have two years before the midterms come.
And there's a possibility that we lose the midterms.
And so I have to have all of it done in two years.
So that's why he has been moving at such a breakneck speed on all of this stuff, because he knows the system had to be changed if we were actually going to change America.
We can play with the, you know, the Fed rate and everything else.
We can play with that all day long.
But if you really want to change the world and change the direction of the country and fix and get out of this, we're just going to slowly watch our nation fade away.
He had to change the big things.
And this was one of them.
And so while it's not on anybody's list to start a war with Iran and have terror attacks here, I think you're exactly right.
I think, Wes, that we are doing it on his time now.
He knows we're going to have to face it and might as well face it while he has two more years left in office because, you know, we just found out last hour, I asked the question, how did this guy who was in jail for aiding ISIS, he was supposed to be in jail for 11 years.
My question was, when was he released early from prison?
And he was released by Biden.
So, I mean, now is the time to take care of this because at least this guy will fight it.
And like cancer, don't let it get stronger any more than it already is.
Jason and Ricky, what have I missed that we have to talk about?
And this not just includes today, but includes the whole week.
What is it that we have, as we get into our last 15 minutes of the week's show?
What have I missed?
I feel like with everything going on, we need another four hours to go through everything.
The news center is just insane.
The Cuba information.
We haven't even talked about what's the latest on Cuba.
Because that might happen this weekend as well.
It could go rapidly either way in Iran or Cuba, but the leader of Cuba, I don't know where they want to call him, dictator, president, whatever, he is now coming out and said in a news conference that they are actively engaged with the Trump administration in negotiations.
What that means, I don't know, but they just released around, what was it, 50 plus political prisoners as a gesture in the middle of this negotiation.
So that's definitely something to keep your eye on.
All of this, Glenn, this would be insane.
All of this, like I said, it'll happen fast.
But if this happens, I mean, look, Cuba going down, Iran going down, Panama turning towards the United States away from China, everything that's going on with Greenland, however that ends up.
All of this happening in a span of like 12 months, it just is blowing my mind.
I cannot believe this.
That's why I've said if we could get, you know, satellite, if we could get the actual receivers for Starlink into Cuba, if they saw what was happening in Iran, all of this stuff is contagious.
You notice when the Soviet Union fell, it began in Poland.
Okay.
One place, and they see that spark and they're like, whoa, these people are willing to take that on and it's working.
And others start to do the same thing.
That's why communication is so important.
That's why Starlink is so important in places like Cuba and Iran.
Because once they see, that's, I mean, this weekend, if we can stabilize the streets enough so the Iranian people come out and they're 40, 50, 100,000 strong, and the IRGC shows up and tries to stuff that back into a bottle or push them back into jail or home.
And you have a drone flying over and that drone takes care of the IRGC on that street, game over.
Game over.
It's never happened before in the history of the world like that, where you just had not even an airstrike.
You're not putting anybody in danger on our side.
You've got a drone and it's way up.
Nobody even sees it.
And it's watching everything on the streets.
And the people rise up and somebody starts to push them around, shoot them, or try to round them up.
And that drone drops down in front of them.
Just it dropping down in front of them would push the IRGC back.
But that drone dropping down, everybody seeing, oh, crap, that's an American or Israeli drone, and it fires on the IRGC and it kills them, that news will spread like wildfire and the regime will collapse.
He is right, possibly.
We can pray that he's right about this, that when it happens, it's going to happen fast.
And if that is his plan to get the airspace secure enough and the IRGC weakened enough to allow the people to come out and then just through drones, watch those streets at night.
And you see anybody being rounded up, you see anybody being hassled because they were on the streets and those drones drop in and take those people out.
Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh.
You want to talk about an army putting its rifles down?
That will happen overnight.
And if the people in Cuba see that, if the people in Cuba see what happened, I doubt they know what happened in Venezuela.
It may be rumors, but to actually have verification that this is happening around the world, this is what's happening in Venezuela, and it's happening because the Americans are serious about freedom, the world will change overnight.
It will change overnight.
I mean, it is such an exciting, scary as hell.
I don't know if we've lived.
Maybe it's because I'm older and so I've seen more, or maybe it's because it's not nuclear war at this point, because that scares the hell out of me as well.
But I remember being a kid thinking of, you know, Russia, we could be at war or Russia overnight and me scared to hell.
And probably it was worse because of nuclear war.
But other than that, we're at the scariest time I've ever lived in America.
This is the most consequential time of my lifetime, with an exception of Reagan standing up and saying it's an evil empire and us thinking we were going to be vaporized.
This is the most consequential.
And so it is a scary, scary time.
You're probably feeling that.
Don't look away from it.
Don't look away from it.
Deal with it.
Deal with it.
Because with this scary time, I mean, look at this.
Look at what happened.
Look at what happened with the ROTC.
They didn't sit down.
They didn't sit down.
They went and got the guy.
Same thing with the guy who drove into the synagogue in Michigan.
He didn't get away.
There were people there that were ready for him that went in and killed him, got him.
Okay.
You know what that reminds me of?
Todd Beamer.
Do you remember that name?
Todd Beamer.
Todd was on the guy.
He was the guy who was on the phone with, I think, some operators or maybe his family.
And he was on a plane flying over Shanksville.
And remember, all of the people that were on those planes, all those Americans that were on those planes on 9-11, they were flown into buildings and they all died.
Shanksville was about, what, 30, 40 minutes later?
And they were flying low enough to where they could still get cell signals.
And they were calling friends and friends were calling them.
And they were like, are you on a plane?
Yeah, I'm on a plane.
We've just been hijacked.
Relief Factor Pain Solution00:02:29
Oh, good Lord.
They're putting all these planes into buildings.
So they knew what was going on.
And Todd's the one that organized the plane and said, let's roll.
The reason why that plane did not fly into the U.S. Capitol or the White House is because of Todd Beamer and all of the patriots that were on that plane that said, over my dead body.
And they knew they were either going to do it and die in the sky, but they were not going to die in the White House.
They were not going to die into the side of the Capitol, but they would stand and fight.
That's what happened yesterday, which tells me America is waking up.
We know we're beginning to see just the very beginning of it.
And don't believe the lies.
There are far more of us that are awake than them.
And when it comes down to it, when it actually is my life, your life, my children's future, your children's nightmare, we will stand.
And yesterday, you saw the very beginning.
So do not close your eyes.
Open your eyes.
Take a stand.
Square your shoulder.
You're a damn American.
Start acting like it because others are beginning to.
More in just a minute.
All right.
Let me tell you about relief factor.
When was the last time you paid attention to how you move?
Not exercise, just the ordinary stuff, standing up from a chair, climbing a set of stairs, reaching down to pick something up off the floor.
This morning I was walking into the radio station here in Phoenix and I could just barely get out of the car and I'm like, okay, well, I'm now traveling and my back hurts a lot again.
