Glenn Beck and Ryan Mauro dissect the Michigan synagogue attack, framing it within a broader "Red-Green Alliance" of Islamists, Marxists, and anarchists aiming to destroy Western civilization. Beck details alleged long-term planning by Muslim Brotherhood networks, citing declassified FBI documents and the 1979 Iranian Revolution as proof of this fusion. He promotes his upcoming Torch special exposing this blueprint while criticizing mainstream media censorship and internal conservative conflicts. Ultimately, the episode argues that journalists must courageously expose state overreach and enemy manipulation to preserve truth during what Beck defines as World War III against Islamism.

Glenn Beck is on.
is This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
And hello, you sick twisted freak.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
There's a lot going on today.
I'm broadcasting from the Mercury Studios in Dallas, Texas.
I want to talk to you about the war.
I want to talk to you of the going on, the coming storm.
I mean, I've been saying this for a while.
We are in World War III.
You just don't know it yet.
You haven't admitted it to yourself yet.
And it has nothing to do with the war in Iran, although that may have hastened things or made it more clear.
But we have been at a war, in a war, for a very long time, and that war is with Islamism, the political Islam.
Now, we have a lot to cover this week.
I have a big special that we have worked four months on to make sure that we have this live documentary that is going to happen on Thursday night, live, only on Torch, to give you all of the information that you need to understand what we're up against, what the blueprint is for the destruction of the Western world by Islamists.
And we'll tell you more about that and get into the news of the weekend here in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about my Patriot supply.
I'm really not somebody who believes, you know, you should panic, you know, every time a news alert pops up on your phone, but you know, there are things that you need to do.
We're living in a moment that is really remarkable.
History is going to write about these days.
You should keep a journal.
These days are so important.
Everything that is going on in the world, historians will study this because what we do in the coming days, weeks, and months will decide the future of freedom and humanity, quite honestly.
And, you know, things are very uncertain right now.
And you feel that.
You know that.
You need to have some essentials on hand, like food and water and power, honestly, taken care of before you would ever need them.
And that's exactly what My Patriot Supply helps people do.
My Patriot Supply has been a friend of this program for a very, very long time.
They're a real American company, a company that I have trusted for over 20 plus years.
And they have helped me and millions of other patriots just like you prepare with long-term emergency food, water filtration systems, solar generators, and survival gear.
Protecting your family is absolutely critical.
So if you've been thinking about getting prepared, now is the time.

Let me go to Jason, who is with us today.
He is our chief researcher.
He has been working feverishly on this special, which we'll get to here in just a minute.
But Jason, I want you to give me an update on everything that happened with Iran this weekend.
Friday, when we were broadcasting, we told you a major hit was coming because that's what the president said.
And this is something that he talked about, I think in 1980, 82, something like that.
He was out pushing his book, The Art of the Deal, and he somehow or another got talking about Iran and what he would do.
And what he said is, I would take that island.
I'd take that island.
They hit us, we take that island.
And that island, he's talking about, we took it this weekend.
And it is where 80 or 90% of all Iranian oil have to pass through this island.
So we have greatly diminished their ability to do anything for money because they are running on oil money.
Jason, give me an update on this, would you?
Yeah, so when we broke on Friday, the biggest developments we were looking at was the Israeli drones that were starting to hit checkpoints within Tehran.
So we were looking at the next stage of the fight being them taking the battle straight to the oppressors, the security forces that were going to push back on demonstrators as they were, you know, eventually when they start to come out in the streets and be the ground troops, as the Crown Prince told you.
That's the biggest developments we were looking at then.
But then there was a huge strike on Karg Island, what you were just talking about.
So roughly 90% of all the oil that's taken out of Iran, the mainland Iran, is taken to Karg Island.
It's an island off the coast in northwestern Iran.
And all that oil gets taken to Karg Island and then it gets put on tankers and then sent down through the Straits of Hormuz.
So if you cripple Karg Island, you essentially cripple the entire country.
It's amazing to me that there were 90 military targets on Karg Island.
Yeah.
And they hit them, again, precision, precision, precision.
They hit them and they preserved the oil infrastructure itself.
So they can turn it back on at any time.
They didn't destroy the country's ability to do this.
They just took away all of the military assets that they had on the island that was a threat to the Straits of Hormuz.
So I think it's fascinating to me that you break it, you buy it.
We didn't break it.
We're breaking their military.
We didn't break their ability to go back in peacetime and immediately open up for sale again, which I found fascinating.
Right, yeah, and it does two things.
So one, they have a lot of the mining operations that the IRGC has to mine and block the Straits of Hormuz.
That's a lot of the targets that we hit.
So their ability to project military power out through the Straits, that's what we hit.
But it also does another thing.
It signals to the Iranian regime what we will do if they continue to try and close the Straits of Hormuz.
There is a Marine Expeditionary unit that is on its way to the Gulf, and that's a huge signal.
So if you cannot defend Karg, you can still, as you just pointed out, you can still economically run your operations from Karg.
The oil production has not been shut off, but you cannot defend it.
Now, with the Marine Expeditionary Unit on its way, and Marine Expeditionary units are basically an entire war on a few ships.
I've been on a few of these going out towards right after September 11th for the Afghanistan war.
Every single part, you're talking about aviation units, you're talking about artillery, you're talking about ground troops.
You can do a small war with the Marine Expeditionary Unit.
You could also take an island if you had to.
So this is a huge signal to Iran, continue to do what you're doing.
You cannot defend your economic hub anymore, and we could take it.
So I'm not saying they will, but that is the threat.
And you can better believe the regime is feeling that threat today.
Okay, so help me out on this and tell me where we are on this, Jason, because, you know, as I see it, there are five things that you have to have because it's not the protest that decides the fate of the country.
It's the day after the protest.
You know what I mean?
It's what happens afterwards.
So if you're going to come out of this without an absolute bloodletting, five things have to happen, and they almost have to happen almost at once.
Enough of the security apparatus have to refuse the order to slaughter the people.
So you've got to reduce the security apparatus.
Do you have any idea how far along the line we are on that one?
There are reports of defections on both the IRGC and the besiege security forces, but not in large amounts.
And there are reports of strikes, like we were talking about with the Israeli drones.
Then how far are we on the military apparatus?
So let's look at two things.
First, you just said, are people defecting?
A little bit, but what about the military apparatus to go outside of the country?
How much have we crippled them there?
How far along are we?
Very far along to project power outside the country.
That's very far along, but not specifically to maintain control inside the country.
They still need a long ways to go there.
Okay.
The civilian coalition that needs to come out and also that coalition that has to be there before the collapse, not after.
Have you seen any signs of any coalition beginning?
So the Crown Prince has made a couple of statements signaling to the coalition of the people inside Iran that it's not quite time for them to mobilize, but that is coming.
So he's telling them to prepare.
The problem is also on the weekend, the regime did the same thing.
They called for all their supporters to get out into the streets.
And their supporters are still significant.
You're going to have thousands of people.
So both sides are appearing like they are getting ready for that phase.
So that's coming soon.
So why would they ask their supporters out on the streets?
So it wasn't a clear kill.
You know what I mean?
You wouldn't know.
It would be more confusing if you were going to defend those people.
You wouldn't know necessarily who you were defending.
A couple of reasons.
For one, it helps to suppress the anti-regime coalition.
That's one, through fear and intimidation.
But for two, it's human shields, you know, in the typical Hamas tactics.
It's human shields so that we can't, now that you have Israeli drones targeting checkpoints, they're going to be less likely to do that if there's about a thousand supporters that are around those checkpoints.
So it's both factors.
How do you see this ending?
Today, as it stands today, and I said you have $1,000, you have to put it down on the table.
How would you bet?
I would bet closer to a 12-month campaign, but regime would fall.
But I think it's going to take a lot longer.
But yeah, I would say I would, okay, better.
My money would be safer on a six to 12-month campaign.
That's what my money would be on.
So we still have quite a ways, I believe.
Well, that's what they're counting on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what they're counting on.
I mean, you know, it's clear.
If I were going against the United States, and I have wargamed this, and I won't share a lot of it with you on the air because I'm not going to help anybody out.
But I've wargamed this.
How would I defeat the United States of America?
And I'll leave it at this.
Step one is I would have terror cells here and I would have clear objectives and targets.
And I could tell you in 10 minutes targets that would cripple us, that are easy, that would cripple us in three days.
Three days, we would be crippled.
And so there's number one.
And they have that.
The other is keep the regime alive long enough until Donald Trump is either out of office or until the American people just say, we're not doing this anymore.
I can't do this anymore.
We are sending them such a clear message that we are so divided on this that that gives them hope.
You know they are having those conversations.
These guys are exactly the same every time they get into war.
It's the Vietnam story over and over and over again.
All we have to do is just hold on.
They will give up and go home.
Those two things.
The Strategy of Division and Hope00:10:03
That's their strategy.
Agree or disagree?
100% agree.
And the Iranians have been preparing for this ever since 1979.
They knew that what they were all about and how they did it was going to someday have what's happening right now happen.
So they've been preparing everything from their command control structure, how to keep the IRGC going, even if their leadership has been decapitated and splintered.
It's designed to continue to run indefinitely.
And it's designed not just for military victory, or not really for military victory, but to prolong and almost like a mass guerrilla style conflict so that whoever is attacking them, I think they always assumed it would be us and Israel, exactly what's happening, is politically at home to make it so politically damaging that we would have to stop.
But not only at home, but globally.
So that's what the Straits of Hormuz are about.
Not only make it politically damaging for the sitting president of the United States with his domestic audience, but also the entire world eventually will say, this is going to take six to 12 months.
We cannot have $150, however many dollars a barrel it is.
We cannot have that go for a year.
You have to stop this.
That is what the strategy is designed for.
I don't understand other than speculation and fear.
I don't understand why oil is moving one way or another.
I mean, we just took out their island, which makes it much more likely that they're not going to be able to shut this thing down.
We have the entire Navy there.
We're saying that we will insure the ships.
Other than fear, what is driving this?
Yeah, it's pretty much just all fear and insurance companies.
And they are being successful.
It doesn't make a whole lot of news.
I don't know why, but every once in a while, just a few days ago, last week, I saw that there was like three or four tankers were engulfed in flames, and they were successfully hitting a few of them.
So they are being successful in certain ways, but oil is a global commodity.
So anytime that you even there's the fear of 20% of the world supply going offline, you're going to see these crazy prices.
I think today it's around like $95 a barrel.
So it's still not spiking exactly what they thought it would be.
But Iran really hasn't started mining the Strait of Hormuz.
That's part of the reason why we attacked KARG, so they don't continue to start doing that en masse.
But yeah, it might take, and this is the scary part, especially if you're worried about American ground troops, it might take some kind of large presence on the ground eventually to thwart this continuing to go forward.
I don't want to see that, but that will be something the president will be juggling, especially as he starts losing political support around the world and at home.
What is the one thing that I can do to stop this now?
And it would be something like ground troops in KARG.
I will tell you, the president is going to have an uphill battle.
And in many ways, because of what the right is doing to itself, we're just shooting ourselves in the foot over and over and over again.
If I hear one more podcaster yapping about how much they hate another podcaster, I can't take it anymore.
I just can't take it anymore.
Trust the American people to figure this out.
The American people are not stupid.
And if the conservative audience is this stupid that you need somebody like me to beat the drum every day about how this person is just a traitor, if that's what it's going to take to win, then we're not going to win.
We're not going to win.
You're smart enough to know.
You're smart enough to listen to people and say, that is, that's wrong.
That's wrong.
I don't agree with that.
I think that's, you know, that's not going to, that's not helpful.
That's not helpful.
Or, you know, this is absolutely true.
I will tell you that there are people being trapped more and more into this weird new, they say that it's right wing, but it's not.
It's left-wing ideology.
And people are being discouraged.
And it's time for us just to gather around principles and what we need to happen.
You know, let's just focus on the things that we have to have happen in our country to save the republic.
I don't care about the personalities.
I really don't.
And neither should you.
You shouldn't care about me or any other personality you listen to.
You should care about the truth.
What is the truth?
And who is encouraging us to do more so we can win and save the republic?
So let me try to encourage you a bit on what happened with the Save Act.
It's going to be introduced tomorrow.
What does this mean?
I'll tell you about that in 60 seconds.
First, for years, I've talked about Relief Factor.
You've heard stories from people who finally found Relief Factor after trying the three-week quick start.
But there's something new I want you to know about.
Relief Factor is always looking for ways to help people not just get out of pain, but stay out of pain.
And they've actually made the trusted formula even better.
No, it's not new Coke.
Here's what they've done.
They've added premium black pepper extract.
Now, this sounds like witchcraft to me.
And if I hadn't have, honestly, if I hadn't have had the pain that I had riddled in my body for so long, gone to every expert, nobody could do anything.
I tried every single thing you could possibly imagine.
And then when at the end of my rope, I tried Relief Factor and it worked.
I'd be like, uh-huh.
Oh, they're adding black pepper extract.
Here's the thing.
Somehow or another, that works to get all of the stuff, the active ingredients in Relief Factor.
It actually helps open up whatever, the cells or whatever has to open up to get that to absorb in your body and work.
Over a million people have tried Relief Factor.
Two-thirds of them have gone on to take more month after month.
I'm one of them.
So just try it, will you?
If you already have subscribed and you have Relief Factor coming, you're going to get the new version of it automatically.
But just start with their three-week quick start.
See if it works for you.
1995, relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief.
800, the number four, relief.
10 seconds, station ID.
All right.
So I got a note from Mike Lee over the weekend.
He said, hey, some good news.
It's moving forward, the, you know, Save Act.
And then I read what is happening and I'm like, okay, baby steps, maybe.
But let me just give you the update.
This is from Cleta Mitchell.
She said, John Thune has announced he is putting the Save America Act on the floor and he is not immediately moving for cloture, which would instantly kill the bill.
That was the original plan until Jon Thune ran into a buzzsaw of the American people going berserk about that idea.
Listen, you made a huge difference.
Do not discount this.
I mean, we haven't won, but we are taking a baby step towards winning, and it's all because of you.
Okay.
Also, she said the determination of real Donald Trump to change the plan.
That's what's going to happen this week.
He's going to move tomorrow to consider the House message on Save America Act.
The Senate will start the consideration of the bill.
Series of procedural motions, blah, It will be on the floor for consideration.
None will require 60 votes, but this is the beginning of it.
It is not what we were looking for.
It's not a talking filibuster, but it is an ongoing debate for consideration.
Keep on top of it.
We will and let you know.
All right.
Our sponsor here is Rough Greens.
There's something dog owners learn pretty quickly.
Your dog doesn't care, you know, what's on the bag.
They don't care about the brand name, the marketing, you know, which company spent the most on that commercial.
But what means something to them is what's in the bowl.
A, I think they care about taste.
I know Uno did.
He really, he wouldn't eat his food.
But also, I think they reject some of the food because while they're hungry and it fills them up, it's not giving them the things they need because it has to have long shelf life, has to be able to sit on a shelf for up to two years, according to the federal government.
That's why it doesn't have all of the live nutrients and ingredients that it really needs.
Rough Greens is a nutritional supplement that you put right on whatever you're feeding your dog right now, and it helps add back the important vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and other nutrients that process food can be missing.
So your dog still gets the food they're used to, but with all the nutrition they need.

America Wakes Up to the Threat00:14:08
We are so lost as a nation in some ways.
And there's a lot of things to be hopeful about as well.
There's a lot of things that are happening that are really, really good.
Even in the terror attacks last week that happened, you saw this moment in two of the three terror attacks where the people that were there responded.
They didn't run.
They didn't hide.
They responded to the terror attacks and stopped the terror attacks, which is remarkable.
That shows me America is beginning to wake up and see what they are up against.
But where we get lost is so many of our podcasters on all sides, so many people in the media.
Media is just, they're useless.
They are honestly useless.
And the same thing with a lot of people in Congress and in politics.
The Democrat Congressman Adam Smith blamed Donald Trump for the recent rise in lone wolf attacks.
Listen, I want you to listen to this.
Cut four, please.
Report from Aaron Katurski about these attacks on U.S. soil.
It's something we've talked about for years, these lone wolves.
But has this war sparked these, do you believe?
Well, it's exacerbated the problem without question.
I think it'd be wrong to say it's sparked it.
We've seen these attacks before this war.
I mean, we have a long-running problem with terrorist organizations associated with ISIS trying to strike us here on our own soil.
We need to be prepared for those.
We need to look at what the Justice Department, the FBI are doing to protect us from that.
So this isn't a new phenomenon, but without question, this has been ramped up because of the war in the Middle East that has brought in, gosh, some 14 countries have been attacked in one way or another.
This war and this conflict is without question spreading right now.
Okay.
So in some ways, he's right.
First of all, notice he mentions the Department of Justice and not DHS.
Why aren't you mentioning DHS doing their job?
How important it is for DHS to do their job?
Because people like him are stopping all funding for DHS.
It's not going to change ICE.
ICE is fully funded.
So what are you doing besides putting the homeland in jeopardy?
I'm not a fan of DHS.
I'm not a fan of the Patriot Act, et cetera, et cetera.
But it is in place and that is the system.
I'd like to change that.
And I would like to reimagine things on how we do security.
But right now, that's the way we do internal security.
You can't just turn that off and expect everything to be fine.
That's not the way you do it.
So there's the first problem that he says.
And then he says, partially true, this attack is happening now because of the war in Iran.
Well, yes, and no.
It might be happening because of the war in Iran, the timing, but these attacks were coming.
You know, they just stopped a terrorist cell, a Hezbollah terrorist cell in Canada over the weekend.
Why was Hezbollah in Canada?
Why was a terrorist cell in Canada?
Why is a terrorist cell here?
Do you think that they were just waiting until Donald Trump did something?
They may have been waiting for the call, but they have been preparing for this for a very long, very, very long time.
Let me give you an Islamic scholar here warning the West.
And this is part of our special, not this particular thing, but you will understand this on our special this Thursday.
Listen to this Imam and what he is talking about when he's warning the West and America.
Listen.
Islam is very clear.
The Quran is very clear.
The Hadith is very clear.
All humankind must submit under Islam, period.
So this is about worldwide domination.
It's about getting rid of the Jews and the Christians, but it's also about taking over the world.
Yeah, wow.
And that's the, yes, and everybody.
And of course, even secular Muslims.
So even secular Muslims are the target.
It's not only Muslims and Christians and Jews and Buddhists and Hindus.
Everybody.
This has to be understood.
This is a global jihad, and they will take everyone.
It's not, you know, I heard somebody say this weekend.
Well, Christians want to convert the whole world, not by sword, not by chat, not by tax, not through jihad.
But yes, would we like to see everybody realize that Jesus Christ is the savior and he can change your life and make sense of your life?
Yes, I would love for the world to come across that, but not by force.
I'm absolutely, if the Christians said today, you know what, it's time we start jailing people who aren't Christians, I would fight against those Christians.
And I think most of us would.
Okay?
That's the difference between the two.
Because again, here's another Islamic scholar on how humanity must submit to Islam.
Qat So when we look around and say, what's the silver lining to all of this?
That every day we hear this terrible news of one of our leaders getting killed, why is the other side not getting killed?
Why are they not being decapitated?
It will come.
Don't worry.
I've read too much history to be convinced otherwise.
And I know for a fact that Islam is not in danger.
In fact, Islam is on a trajectory of the most incredible growth imaginable.
It will continue as promised by Allah, and it will overtake the world as promised by Allah.
Now, here's the good news.
Every time you kill a leader, for instance, the caliphate was going to be through ISIS, remember?
And for a while there, everybody in the Islamist world were all getting behind ISIS.
Before that, they were all getting behind al-Qaeda.
But they believe that Allah is blessing.
And so if they start to expand, if they start to win, that is a signal to Islamists that Allah is behind this.
As soon as they start to lose, as soon as they start to be decapitated, that's Allah saying they weren't pure enough.
So as you start to take these organizations out, they diminish.
That doesn't wipe it out.
I mean, again, I said last week, Islamism, political Islam is a cancer, and it must be entirely removed because it will kill the Western civilization body, if you will.
It will eat, and it's in every organ we have right now.
And we don't see it because we're not geared this way.
We're not geared to think this way.
And you need to, because this is a very well laid out blueprint and plan, which we will lay out for you on Thursday.
But the one thing, if you don't know what the Red-Green Alliance is, think of my chalkboard from 2008 where I said the Marxist and the communist and the Islamists will work together to overthrow Israel, destabilize Europe and America, and eventually overthrow the Western world.
That's what the Red-Green Alliance is.
This is actually a cut, I think, from the special.
This may have even been on the edit room floor.
This is Yasmin Mohammed on Mamdami and the Ayatollah from 1979.
Listen to this.
When the Islamists took power, they murdered, imprisoned, disappeared all of the useful idiots that had helped them get to power because they weren't useful anymore.
And what's really interesting now is you'll find Iranian people on social media telling us over and over and over again that the way Mamdani speaks in New York City is exactly the way the Ayatollah was speaking in Iran, word for word, verbatim.
They are very, very patient and they have seen this play out.
They know the Red-Green Alliance works.
The red, the communists, the socialists, the Marxists, they go and organize the colleges.
Sound familiar.
Then you have the green.
Green is the color of Islam.
Green then organizes the mosques and all of the Muslims and they combine their efforts and begin to work together.
That's why this strange alliance between Marxists that are against religion, against God, suddenly can find themselves in bed with a totalitarian theocratic state because they've made a deal in blood.
They have made a deal with the devil.
And each of them think they're going to kill the other one in the end.
We'll use them.
And this is what the Marxist-Communists think.
We're going to use them and then we'll just keep them under control.
You're not going to keep them under control.
I would put my money on those who actually will die for God every single time.
Marxists, you're rookies.
You have no idea what you're dealing with.
You should read history because in 1979, when they did the Red-Green Alliance in Iran, it did overturn the government of Iran and it gave them this theocratic state.
And then they executed all of the Marxists.
That's what's going to happen to you again.
We'll lay all of this out.
And I will tell you, we got a note from, let me see if I can find it here.
We got a note from YouTube about the special this weekend, just the commercial for the special, okay?
And it says, after conducting additional reviews of your video, we've determined it's not suitable for all advertisers.
So as a result, it will be run limited.
and no ads.
Okay, that's the commercial.
Wait until they see the special.
We know to, and we want it to have a wide enough audience that everybody can see it.
But to help pay for it, we have to put commercials in it.
We do not on the torch, but we have to put commercials in it for YouTube.
But commercials are the least of our concern.
The concern is when we put this, if it's even going to be allowed on YouTube once they see the special, it is going to have to be so highly edited that you will not see the truth.
I've done this before.
I did, remember my first special I ever did was on this alliance, and I did it on CNN.
So I know how to, I know how to say what is true, what is not.
I know how to make sure that we are buttoned up and we're only telling you verifiable facts.
And this is full of verifiable facts.
CNN had to eventually give in because, you know, every time they tried to stop me, I'd say, wait a minute, but this fact, this fact, this fact, are you telling me those aren't facts?
Well, no, we're not saying that.
Well, but how are you presenting it?
Had to go through all of that.
So I know how to do it so it is accurate.
That's not going to be the only problem with places like YouTube.
So we invite you to join us now, support this effort, and make sure you're watching on Thursday night.
This is the reason.
This is one of the reasons I started the torch.
Started the torch for two reasons.
One, and you're just beginning to see just little pieces of this.
It'll be a year before you really understand this.
Education.
Make sure that we can disrupt education and teach our youth the principles and the truth about our country and Western civilization.
And two, to do specials the way I want to do them.
We have spent four months on this special.
We have three teams of producers and what do you call it?
Researchers.
Three teams of researchers on this particular special.
You're going to get the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, unlike you will get anywhere else.
And you can take that to the bank that everything in here is not going to be opinion.
In fact, if I express an opinion at any given time, I will tell you.
We're giving you the facts, the verifiable facts that you and your friends and neighbors need to know because we are in a world war.
Whether you like it or not, we are.
And it's coming.
It's already here, but it's coming where everyone will know we're in it soon if we don't pay attention right now.
You know, when things are going great financially, you feel like you're on top of the world, you know, and it's a great feeling.
When you're dealing with debt, especially high interest credit card debt, it feels like you are running on a treadmill and it just never ends.
You know, you're doing what you're supposed to do, yet the balance never seems to move, you know, because of the high interest rates.
And, you know, you didn't have a choice.
It wasn't like you went out and blew all that money.
You didn't have a choice.
You were probably buying groceries with it.
You know, under the Biden administration, you didn't have a choice.
Well, if you're a homeowner, the equity in your home may give you a way to consolidate that high interest debt into one lower monthly payment.
That means American Financing can help you explore what your options are.

Most of us think about protecting our home in very physical ways.
We lock the doors, we install the cameras, but there's another way that your home can be targeted, and it doesn't involve anyone stepping foot in your property.
It is actually called home title fraud, and it's exactly what it sounds like.
Criminals forge documents, they file them with the county, they transfer ownership of your home into their name.
And then once all that happens, they can attempt to take out loans against your property or even try to sell it out from under you.
The scary part is like you don't really know much about this as it's going on.
Regular homeowners' insurance doesn't typically protect you from this.
And the mortgage company isn't looking for it either.
That's why you need home title lock.
They monitor your home's title and alert you to any changes that could signal fraud.
So you're not left discovering it after the fact, which is a big problem.
Something suspicious shows up, you can immediately act and you can get it out, you can knock it out quickly.
I've partnered with Home Title Lock for a while now because I want you to be able to protect your equity.
I want you to be able to find out if you're already a victim of this because it's devastating if you get caught up in it.

A good friend of mine in the program uh tweeted.
Uh Gad sad.
Uh tweeted this weekend, retweeted my monologue that happened on friday that Islamism is a cancer you.
and it is.
And he retweeted and he commented: Islamism is Islam.
There is zero distinction.
Nuance in a Polarized Debate00:02:55
True and not true, Gad.
And you are making a valid point to some degree, but there is nuance to that.
It depends on who wins.
You just heard from that cleric.
The Muslims that are not practicing Sharia law, not Islamist enough, they are a target.
In fact, they're the first target.
And I would love to invite Gad on this week to have kind of a debate about this because a lot of people feel this way and it's partially true.
But what is the distinction here?
How do you win?
You can't just say everybody is in this because it's not true.
And I can prove that to you.
We'll have more on this later on in the week.
You know, some boots look great on the shelf, but the second you wear them, you realize you're about to spend a few weeks just breaking them in.
That is one of the things that makes Decovus different.
Their boots are handcrafted in more than 200 steps, and they're all done by skilled artisans using premium leathers and traditional bootmaking techniques, the kind that have been passed down for generations.
And the result is something you notice immediately.
They feel right right out of the box.
Decovis has timeless Western styles, premium leathers from cowhide to exotic options like ostrich and cayman.
And whether it's your first pair or your fifth pair, they've got something going that is going to fit your style.
So if you ever get the chance to visit one of their stores, the experience is amazing.
Friendly staff, chance to try on different pairs, even boot shine while you're there.

Facing Good Versus Evil Today00:15:21
This week is a very, very important week as I try to outline what we are facing as a nation, not just internally with economics and elections and everything else.
We just told you that the Save America Act is going to the Senate floor tomorrow.
We're going to watch carefully.
It is a baby step, but it is a step in the right direction.
Cloture is not part of it.
You know, I could explain it to you, but not in English, not in anything that anybody really understands or wants to hear because the Senate is all screwed up.
But maybe that's just me.
But I really want to focus this week on how do you tell the difference between right and wrong?
How do you tell the difference?
You know, most things are not right versus wrong.
They aren't.
In most of my life, it has all been, it's all been about right versus almost right.
Well, we've made these almost right decisions for so long now.
We are facing not just right and wrong, we're facing good versus evil.
And it's important that we get this absolutely right.
And so we have a big special coming up on Thursday.
It is exposing the Islamist blueprint for the conquering of the West.
And if you think that that is just hyperbole, you couldn't be more wrong.
And I would urge you to get your friends to come over and join you and watch this live special this Thursday.
It is a torch exclusive.
It will only be on torch at glennbeck.com slash torch.
Later, it will come out in a highly edited version due to the rules of YouTube.
The only place you're really going to be able to see it fully in its unedited form will be on March 19th.
That is this Thursday night.
I believe it starts at 8.
Ryan Morrow, he is the Institute Director for the Morrow Institute.
He's a counterterrorism expert.
He knows this stuff inside and out because he has been studying it forever.
And he has been a very reliable source for over a decade for me and for us.
Jason, our chief researcher, I asked him if you could put a dream team together of researchers for this special, who would be on it.
And first name that came out was Ryan Morrow.
And so we've partnered with Ryan to be able to get his researchers to work on this special.
For four months, we have been working on this special for you.
I'm going to give you a sneak peek.
Ryan joins us along with Jason here in just a second to talk about the decades-long plans to infiltrate, subvert, and defeat the United States of America.
We'll get into that here in just a second.
First, the Berna launcher.
You know, some, you know, people don't spend a lot of time thinking about, you know, how far away can you stop a threat?
Because in a dangerous situation, distance does matter.
The closer somebody gets, the fewer options you have, and the faster things can escalate into something you never wanted in the first place.
That's one of the reasons the Berna launcher has become so popular.
Burna is a non-lethal self-defense tool that launches powerful pepper and kinetic projectiles, allowing you to stop a threat from a safe distance without having to use lethal force.
I want to tell you a true story and a sad story.
My daughter, I was out to see her on Friday, and she lives on her own now in a different state.
And she was out taking a friend to the hospital at about midnight.
And her friend had, I don't know, mono or something and had to get to the hospital.
And so she goes over to the house, picks her up, and somebody starts to follow her.
And her and her friends start to freak out and they change lanes on the freeway.
They get off an exit.
He gets off an exit.
They blow through a red light.
He blows through a red light.
Well, they're smart enough to drive right to a police station.
And he pulls up right next to them.
The windows are smoked so dark, she couldn't see who it was.
But he pulls up right next to her.
She couldn't get a license plate number, but today is the day we're getting the license plate number from the police department because they have videos in front of the police department.
But she told me this and she said, Dad, I know I told you before I was carrying it and I didn't.
And I've got it with me now and I will always carry with me my Burna launcher.
And I'm like, thank God.
I'm sorry that it took this, but at least nothing happened.
Please.
This is a great self-defense tool.

Let me bring Jason in.
Jason, I see the script today.
I have not seen the script, so I begin to make my edits and my changes today, which I know everybody loves.
But Tell me a little bit about your relationship with Ryan and how this has worked before I bring Ryan in.
Yeah, so Ryan is what I like to call at the research circles, one of the big guns.
And he's very specialized in a lot of these different, and especially this topic.
He's probably one of the original OGs, one of the original gangsters of tracking a lot of this stuff down.
And I put him in a very high league with a bunch of a few of the other people that were pointing a lot of this stuff out.
Going as far as back as the Bush administration, even, but heavily during the Obama administration, where a lot of this stuff was starting to slow drip, leak out, and we were getting a picture of all this.
And then it just went away pretty wildly.
It just went away.
And I remember thinking when we were putting this together and we were looking to bring Ryan in, I was like, it would be great if we found a lot of documents or had access to documents that would show maybe why some of this went away or what was coming to light back then.
And Ryan is the guy with the receipts.
He's like, well, I've got them all.
And I was like, oh boy, let's do it.
This is going to be unlike anything you've probably ever seen before, but so critical for why Ryan was brought in.
It's going to be awesome.
I have to tell you, I would be remiss if we didn't thank God because we had several specials, this four months ago, several specials we were looking at, and all of them seemed equally as important.
And this one may have at the time even seemed less important than a couple of other others.
And, you know, we approach everything we do prayerfully.
And we decided this has got to be the first special for the torch.
And look at the timing.
I mean, it could not be more appropriate and more important than it is right now because we are at war.
And I'm not just talking about, you know, the war with Iran.
I believe we are in World War III.
People just haven't caught up to it yet.
Ryan, thanks for joining us.
Would you agree with that statement?
Oh, absolutely.
I think that people, I think people recognize that there's a global conflict, but as for its actually being a world war, I don't think people understand the gravity of it or that it's happening or how expansive it is because all of our adversaries are talking about defeating us the exact same way.
And it's through using the model that we're going to be exposing on the torch through this special.
So it's the Islamists and then everyone else is taking their cues from them because they've been so darn successful.
So Ryan, you and I, I can't remember the first time we met, but you and I, you helped me on stuff when I was at Fox, did you not?
I mean, we've known each other for a very long time.
Yes, I think I was just communicating with you by email back then and then more subsequently shortly after like 2014 or something like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because, you know, I did not know what I was talking about when I said the Islamists, the communists, the Marxists will all work together, you know, to destabilize the Middle East, Israel, Europe, and then eventually the United States.
I didn't realize that was called the red-green alliance at the time.
When did we know about the red-green alliance?
Really, really know about it?
Has that been a long-term thing?
We should have known about it during the Cold War.
I mean, the example that you have to mention is the Islamic Revolution in Iran being such a key example.
So the information was there, but people weren't putting it together and realizing how solidified of a threat it was until like really your show on Fox, really the one that made it normalized for people to start talking about it and saying that there's this red-green alliance.
And actually something you said that you were criticized for that you may have even forgotten was you mentioned that they're also anarchists.
So it's a red-green alliance, but there's also an anarchist element that's increasingly prominent.
And so when we talk about the Islamist threat, there's this interesting fusion happening where they not only ally with anarchists and the communists, but I would say it's no longer a horseshoe theory where they just get closer together.
I call it the Oval Theory now, that there's been an actual fusion into a single entity.
People said at the time when I said that they said, anarchists don't work with anyone.
Communist and Marxist and socialists won't work with a religious theocracy.
So you don't know what you're talking about.
Why do they all work together?
The part of it is just the enemy of Miami is my friend.
But I think the affection has grown since then.
So there's a tactical element to it.
They all believe in essentially the anarchist goal of destroying the authority in the United States.
And then from the ashes, they'll be able to rebuild what the land should be modeled on in their mind because they know so much better than the Founding Fathers.
And that's the kind of commonality there.
But I must say from monitoring their internal chats for so many years, it's more than just, oh, we have a common enemy.
There's very often brotherly affection, and they put their differences off to the side because they each believe it's so inevitable that their ideology will prevail once they defeat the West that it's not really worth arguing about.
The Islamists say, well, when America is defeated, you're going to see the glory of Allah, and you will join us.
You'll either become a Muslim or you'll accept that we're right, so we don't need to fight about it.
And then the communists and anarchists will say, well, the reason the Islamists are so radicalized is because the Jews are doing it.
The Zionists are doing it to them.
And so you remove the Western and Zionist influence.
Well, they won't be radical anymore.
And then we can all get together and enjoy paradise on earth, as they see it.
And do they not see what happened?
Explain for anybody who doesn't know what happened in 1979 in Iran.
That's an exceptionally aggressive example.
So what they would say is what happened in 1979 is that you had basically the far left of Iran, which was the communists and the Marxists teaming up with the Islamists.
And then there were a lot of people who genuinely wanted to move the country in a more liberal direction and weren't part of either of them.
But those were the two main camps, was the Marxists and the Islamists.
And so we call it the Islamic Revolution now, but during then it was just a revolution against the Shah.
And so he gets overthrown and you have a joint red-green alliance come to power.
And very quickly, Ayatollah Khomeini and the Theocrats then slaughtered and destroyed the communists and sidelined them.
But even in the inner circles on the Islamist end, they'll say, oh, well, we don't necessarily have to be that aggressive next time around.
They would find some way of saying, well, that example doesn't apply.
Okay.
I want to address something that I'm hearing a lot that people say, you know, we had four terrorist attacks since Operation Epic Fury began.
The Austin bar shooting, the New York press protest bombing, the Michigan synagogue, and Old Dominion University.
Three of those happened last week.
And people are saying, this wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for Donald Trump and Operation Epic Fury.
Well, it may not have happened last week, but I want to take a quick break.
And then I want you to address, is this a reaction to war?
If we just would have left this alone, would this have not happened?
And we'll continue our conversation here in just a second.
By the way, our special is on Thursday night, 8 p.m. only at glenbeck.com slash torch.
Make sure you get it.
All right.
As I've been telling you, I don't think we're getting close to World War III.
We're already living World War III.
It doesn't mean it looks like the first two world wars, but it might someday.
You know, they're not massive armies marching across European fields, and thank God for that.
But look at the world right now.
You see the global powers all testing each other, proxy wars, cyber warfare, terror attacks, regional conflicts that could spread like wildfire if the wrong domino falls.
The level of tension in the world right now is the kind of tension that historically leads to world-shaping conflict.
And one of the places feeling that pressure most is in Israel, a nation surrounded by enemies, constantly facing security threats, and yet filled with families who just want to live their lives, raise their children, and build a future.
That's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews exist.
I don't care what you think about Israel.
I don't care if you like Benjamin Netanyahu.
I don't care if you like the war, don't like the war.
Those are all reasonable things to like or not like.
Jews as a group have a right to exist, a right to live.
That's what it means to stand by the Jewish people.
I'm not talking about their homeland or anything else, their war, anything else, their policies.
I don't care.
Do Jews have a right to exist?
The answer is yes.
And I warn our Christian brothers and sisters, I warn you, it will not go well for you if you just start jumping on a bandwagon where you are denying the Jewish right to life.

No, I'm not doing that.

So, Ryan, clearly this stuff would not have happened had Donald Trump not been roped in to this war by Israel.
This is the only reason why we're having these terrorist attacks.
Help me out.
Of course, it's always the Jews' fault somehow.
No, I mean, if you look at the justifications that these individuals will give for why they do the attacks, particularly the attempted bombing in New York City, where he said it was because they insulted the prophet of my religion, which is obviously that grievance existed before Operation Epic Fury.
What you see are justifications that really have nothing to do with the current decisions of the president and are unbelievably selfish and self-absorbed.
I mean, the level of evil and sin at the core of these ideologies, what they believe in, how they behave in their strategies, is hard to fathom.
And what I mean by that is that it's not just about, oh, we disagree with the foreign policy of the United States, so we're reacting in a certain way, or even just about instituting theocracy as ISIS a Muslim brother and all the want to do.
If you look at the justification, very often it comes down to, well, I've committed a lot of sin.
I really want to get into paradise, and there's only one guaranteed way I can cleanse my sin so that Allah will love me enough to let me in.
And that's to kill people and send them to hell so that I can get in.
I mean, that's the mindset that you're dealing with on top of the apocalyptic ideology and everything else.
And so one of the interesting contrasts I think people will see due to the special is that you have this crazed ideology.
You have this, these selfish impulses that are just unbelievable that they even exist.
But then you look at the plans that they've had for decades, the level of detail and how rational they kind of are, almost like a business manager would put together for a long-term investment.
And that's a contrast I think most people have trouble accepting that that can all exist within one single threat.
And it's not just Muslim Brotherhood.
So someone's out there saying, well, I've heard about the Muslim Brotherhood because I've been a fan of the Glumpath program for a long time.
I think what you'll see is that ideologically for Islamism as a whole, there are phased plans.
And then groups within that pool, like Muslim Brotherhood, then have their own more tailored phased plans.
And so that's how they all can coordinate without even necessarily having to talk with each other.
And, you know, you and Frank Gaffney, me and others, you know, back in 2008, nine, six, whenever we started, we were warning about this stealth jihad and that it was entering all of our institutions.
And we now have, I mean, Obama just called me all kinds of names, but we now have the documents.
You have the documents that show the FBI were saying exactly the same thing that we were.
I mean, smoking gun of smoking guns is what we're going to be releasing because I have obtained declassified FBI documents and other U.S. government documents, just as you described, almost taking word for word the type of stuff that yourself and Frank Gaffney and myself were saying.
And without giving anything away, yes, it relates to Muslim Brotherhood and related groups.
But what you see is that there is an entire network doing this long before 9-11, calling people an Islamophobe before even people even knew that term.
Patriot Mobile Offers New Freedom00:02:48
And then stuff was going on that we can now prove on 9-11 and in the weeks and months following it that is going to blow people's minds.
You won't believe it.
It'll change the narrative when they realize what was going on and even plans for that day.
Their drawing's going to drop.
Yeah, you won't believe what was going on other than the World Trade Center, what was actually happening on 9-11.
And we will show all of that to you on Thursday.
Ryan, we'll have you back on later this week.
And of course, you're going to be there for the special and you're going to be taking questions after the special for Torch Insiders.
That is Thursday night.
Do not miss this, the blueprints of our own destruction from the Islamists.
It's happening on Thursday night, 8 p.m. only.
Glennbeck.com slash torch.
All right.
Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
Let me try a little thought experiment.
You're starting life over from scratch, let's say.
New house, new job, new routine.
Somebody hands you a list of cell phone companies, says pick one.
You don't have any history on any of them.
No old contracts, no habits, no inertia, just a simple choice.
Well, which company has good coverage, right?
Which one is priced fairly?
Which one actually stands for the things that I believe in and which one's working against me?
For a lot of people, that last question has become pretty important.
If it's important to you, you know, many of the big wireless companies have become very comfortable in using their billions of dollars to support political causes and corporate activism that a lot of their customers, me, you, we don't share that.
Patriot Mobile was created as a different and better option.
They're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider with dependable nationwide coverage on all three major networks.
So if you're starting from scratch today, the decision might actually, it is actually really simple.

Welcome to the program.
Hi.
I am.
I find myself in a weird position.
I have done radio for 40 years.
This is my 49th year.
Next year will be my 50th year of broadcast.
Forty Years of Talk Radio History00:12:50
And, you know, I did it for, you know, when I was, you know, teenage years, I did it for the chicks, which never really showed up.
That didn't happen.
I did it for the fame and the funny and the fortune and whatever that showed up temporarily and just was so meaningless and so empty.
I found my purpose in drink.
And then I decided to do a radio show, talk radio, and I was going to parody talk radio.
And 9-11 happened and everything on this show changed.
I mean, the show used to be very, very funny.
And in some ways, I wish it still was as funny as it used to be.
But the world just changed and it just got so, so darn serious.
And so I started doing what I thought was right.
And that was telling you what's right, what's wrong.
And I became honestly, in some ways, I became the guy that I wanted to parody.
You know, the talk radio host was like, I know everything because I'm the smartest guy alive.
And everybody on talk radio does that.
It's hard not to fall into that because this job requires you to have enough of an ego to say, this is the way it is and actually believe it and back it up.
But also somehow or another, keep that humility that, no, I don't really know what I'm talking about.
I'm guessing, you know, like everybody else, I might have a better guess than everybody else, but I don't know anything.
And so I find myself today looking at a landscape, and I'm going to talk about this next hour, looking at a landscape where our podcasters are all taking each other on, and I don't understand it.
And I do understand that some people are very right in my opinion.
Some people are very wrong in my opinion.
But I just wish people would stop tearing each other apart because that's not helpful at all, at all.
And it's not going to change anybody's mind.
I know because I've tried it before and it doesn't work.
It only just makes us into a smaller and smaller community.
We have to talk about principles and what we are for instead of who we're against or who's our enemy today.
And I'm going to get into something that I heard this weekend, next hour, that is really important, not for the podcasters or for the broadcasters, but for you, because we all have a responsibility.
You know, for the first time in human history, people have always had audiences.
Okay.
You can in Shakespeare at the Globe Theater, and Shakespeare had an audience.
He had to come to the theater, but he had an audience.
But for the first time in human history, audiences have an audience.
In your pocket, whether it is five followers or five million followers, you have an audience.
And so that puts you in a place where you have real responsibility, especially at times like today.
You don't just repost things without thinking.
And I know it's really tempting.
And you can say, well, I don't know what's true.
Well, if you don't know it's true, then you shouldn't post it.
Or you should post it with, can anyone verify this?
I mean, at the very least, can anyone verify this?
And if they can't, if, you know, I heard that, no, I have a source that told me, then you shouldn't be posting it.
Okay.
It's an opinion.
And, you know, when the war broke out with Iran, I was watching the news all weekend long and I'm trying to get an update on things.
And I kept hearing these people from both sides of the argument yelling at each other and each saying that they were right.
And, you know, this war is going to turn into a massive massacre for everybody, you know, in the Middle East.
It's going to massacre of everybody in the United States.
And I thought, neither of you know.
You don't know.
You don't know this.
Where are the facts?
Can you just give me facts, please?
Those aren't popular.
Opinions are popular.
And opinions without principles.
You know, most people never choose evil.
They never choose evil.
Not knowingly.
Most.
I mean, some do, but most don't.
People get lost and they find themselves surrounded by evil because the real choice in life is between right and almost right.
Almost right, you can pick, and that almost right could be picked even, you know, consciously, you can go like, yeah, but that one's a little easier.
So I'm going to pick that one.
Okay.
And so you might do it for your own comfort, for your own ease.
You don't want to be a hardliner or whatever it is, but you'll choose almost right.
And if you keep choosing almost right, before you know it, you're standing in a place that you're surrounded by evil.
And you're like, how did I get here?
Well, because you kept choosing almost right instead of right.
Wrong has an odor to it.
Wrong leaves fingerprints.
Wrong will set off an alarm bell in your soul.
Almost right just slips in wearing the clothes of justice or patriotism or compassion, security, faith, or common sense.
Almost right.
It says, relax.
We're on the same side.
But 10 almost right decisions later, and you're standing with people who do not share your principles, only your grievance.
And so you're left standing there without a compass.
And you're like, I don't know.
I don't even know how to do the truth.
I don't know how to, how do I even find the truth?
How do I know what the truth is?
May I give you some principles that you can use as a compass?
Truth before tribe.
Truth before tribe means you don't lie for your side.
You don't trim the facts for your side.
You don't just leave some important details out for your side.
You don't pretend, you know, not to know what you know because the other team might benefit.
Truth before tribe.
Really important.
Number two, human dignity before ideology.
That means you don't ever turn people into abstractions, you know, whether they're Jews or Arabs or immigrants or protesters or soldiers or political opponents, talk radio hosts, whoever it is.
We have to start looking at people as individuals.
Human dignity over ideology.
Liberty, number three, liberty under law.
That means freedom never comes from mob permission, ever.
It is ordered, ordered freedom, restrained by principle and law.
Equal justice means your enemy gets due process too.
This one is so hard.
And this is one that is going to come into play in 2006 and maybe, or sorry, 2026, maybe 2028 because, you know, people think an injustice is done.
And they're just going after.
So we're going to have trials.
Okay, well, be very careful on what you're doing today.
Equal justice means your enemy gets due process too because if it disappears from him today, it will not be there for you tomorrow.
Here's one that I think people are having a hard time with on both sides.
National loyalty without state worship.
What does that mean?
I love my country, but I don't worship it.
I love it.
And because I love it, I recognize it can go wrong quickly.
And so I love my country enough to tell the truth about my country.
Not just to drag it around in the streets, but to tell the truth in hopes that there is a way to fix it.
Not just to bitch about it, but to motivate people to take the steps to fix it.
So we're not that country.
Next principle, moral clarity without dehumanization.
It means there is good in evil.
But let's be careful when we name evil, that we don't dehumanize people.
You can call it out by name, but don't become infected by it.
Don't become everything you despise.
Here's one that I think so many people miss, especially in my business currently.
Free speech with accountability.
You have the right to speak.
You have the right to question.
You have the right to say things that I really am dead set against.
But you don't get to escape the moral judgment for reckless speech or dishonest speech or speech that is just meant to inflame instead of illuminate.
And we need to figure out how to tell the difference between illumination and inflaming speech.
Because there's a lot of speech that happens now.
They're just trying to get you to react.
Because if you react, they become bigger.
They control the narrative.
And it's hard not to react.
It's really hard.
But stop it.
It's meant to inflame.
Don't become the gasoline or the match that they want you to be.
Power must always expect scrutiny because every institution lies to itself sooner or later.
And same with people.
You must, I expect it.
I don't like it.
I expect scrutiny.
And I do want to know what people who are honest are saying about where I got it wrong.
Because it's easy for me or you or anybody else to grow arrogant.
It's really easy for me to grow arrogant and say, I don't know what they're talking about.
I want to know what people are saying so I can get better.
And the last one is means matter as much as ends.
Right now, we live in a world where it doesn't matter what you say or what you do today.
Ends justify the means.
No, they do not.
Every tyranny in history was sold as an emergency shortcut.
We have to do this right now because reality doesn't care what helps your side.
The bill always comes through.
It always shows up in the end.
You need to have principles.
You have to be able to train yourself to know the difference between true, almost true, and false.
Ask yourself, is this factual?
Is it fair?
Is it consistent?
Is it lawful?
Is it moral?
Would I defend this rule if my enemy was using it against me tomorrow?
If the answer on any of those is no, stop.
Because you're on the almost right road.
More in a minute.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad that you're here.
So America's first anti-terrorism trial has just reached a verdict.
They were all convicted on charges of rioting, provided material support to terrorists, conspiracy to use and carry an explosive, and using and carrying an explosive.
This is the North Texas Antifa cell attack.
I don't know if this is going to happen everywhere because you have these states that just are going to look the other way, but it is it's a it's remarkable to see when our government gets serious and our states get serious how they can take these guys apart.
All that has to happen, honestly, for our government, our nation to get back to the nation we all understand.
And I don't want to go back to the way it was because back to the way it was was broken.
But I do want to be able to have safe streets, safe communities, you know, send my kids to school where I know they're not being taught how to riot.
You know, those kinds of things.
The only thing that has to happen is we just have to have the bad guys put in jail.
That's pretty much it.
You're a bad guy.
You've broken the law some way or another.
You need to go to jail or you need to be deported.
That just the perversion of the Justice Department has been so incredibly damaging.
We get the Justice Department back.
I mean, thank God we have the Treasury because the Treasury can actually stop some of these financial crimes that are going on.
And I have a feeling this is the big gun that Donald Trump, I hope this is the big gun that Donald Trump is going to pull out right around election time.
And people are going to start going to jail.
You're going to see the corruption in these states to where they are ripping us off for billions of dollars.
And hopefully they'll be prosecuted and all be on their way going to jail.
But we just need to return to common sense, decency, and actual jail time.
Here's something uncomfortable.
You don't always realize that you're missing things.
You just notice you're working a little harder.
Treasury Stops Financial Crimes Soon00:10:03
You lean in a little bit more during conversations or you ask people, can you say that again?
You then pretend you caught it the second time, even though you didn't.
By the end of a long dinner or family gathering, you're worn out, not from talking, but from straining just to keep up.
This is what gradual hearing loss feels like for a lot of people.
You're still present, you're still engaged, but everything takes more effort than it used to.
What holds people back from doing something about it isn't just pride.
It is honestly the hassle, the appointments, the tests, the follow-ups, the price tags that make hearing feel like a major medical product.
Audien hearing is trying to make that first step a lot simpler.
Their Atom series over-the-counter hearing aids are designed to be approachable, easy to use without prescriptions, no complications, no fittings.
You just get started.
You put them in, charge them, and then you're hearing better than you have in a long time and you hear what you've been missing.

Okay, this story out of Texas.
Armed man wearing tactical gear walked into a Texas elementary school last Tuesday through an improperly closed door and asked about the security presence on campus.
Kyle Chris, 39.
Hey, Jason, is Jason in there?
No.
Kyle Chris, isn't that an interesting name?
39 years old, also known as Muhi Mohaned Najim, was arrested at his home.
I'm sure I said that properly too.
Was arrested at his home Wednesday night and faces a felony charge for unlawfully carrying a weapon in a prohibited place after the incident at Zawink Elementary School.
Chris, originally from Baghdad, Iraq, became a naturalized citizen on August 24th, 2022.
That's when he changed his name to Kyle Chris.
Wasn't Chris Kyle was an amazing sharpshooter, was he not, Sarah?
from Texas and somebody who was over in Iraq and killed a lot of people in Iraq and was under threat all the time from people in Iraq.
He comes over and doesn't name himself Chris Kyle.
He names himself Kyle Chris.
Came from Baghdad.
He was arrested at his home located minutes from the school.
He allegedly told authorities he was a security guard.
He was actually unemployed.
What happened was he got caught in the, they call it a kill box.
It's a little security zone.
You can't get in through one doors until the other doors behind you are closed, and then you have to have the security buzz you one way or another.
And he got in because a parent was walking out and he grabbed the door before it clicked shut.
He got into the kill box.
He was wearing a uniform.
He was wearing his gun on his hip.
And he said, I'm just here to check on security.
Well, the school was smart enough, you know, they're in Texas.
So they were smart enough to go, really?
Why don't you stay there?
We're going to have our armed security come out and meet you.
And so while he's in the box, the armed security said, who are you exactly?
What exactly are you looking for?
Knew it didn't make sense.
They called police.
He fled.
And then the police showed up at his house.
They found him.
I'm wondering how this one's going to turn out.
Watch yourself, America.
You should be on different footing.
Watch yourself.
We are in troubled times.
And there's a lot of people that would like to dismiss all of the warning signs.
You know the guy who was accused of attacking the synagogue in Michigan last week?
Yeah.
Yeah.
His brother is a Hezbollah commander.
And he was killed in an airstrike last week.
Oh, so he was sad.
Well, if he was sad, then he should have attacked that synagogue.
He has every right to do that because he's sad, right?
So wait a minute.
Hmm.
Hezbollah.
His brother was a commander and he was here in the United States.
Huh.
Now, I want you to know.
Well, let me just give you the story.
Let me just give you the story from NPR because it's just too good.
Lebanon.
As you arrive in this town in Lebanon's Beka Valley, one of the first things you notice is a poster of Iran's late supreme leader, the Ayatollah Khomeini, plastered across a concrete wall.
I'm sure that's one of the first things you notice once you enter.
Is there only one road and one wall and one poster?
Usually about 25,000 people live here, and many support the Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah.
Church bells ring out, but there's hardly anyone in the streets.
Stores are shuttered.
Most people have heeded evacuation orders as Israel continues its aerial assault in southern Lebanon.
Recorded hymns echo from the church down the empty streets.
Wait, what?
This is the hometown of Ayman Mohammed Ghazili, the suspect who on Thursday attacked the synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, ramming his car into the building and opening fire.
The FBI says the 41-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he was confronted by the synagogue security officers.
Ghazili had lived in the United States for more than a decade, but he kept strong ties with his relatives, including his brother, who is a commander in Hezbollah.
Four members of his family were killed in Israeli airstrikes just as the war involving Iran began.
He also had a niece and a nephew, and all killed in the airstrike.
As the sun set, they were gathered at home.
The attacker's younger brother, they were just breaking fast for Ramadan there at his home.
But the house today is nothing more than a pile of rubble.
The roof caved in, water leaks from a severed pipe, clothes are strewn on top.
Children's toys are covered in dust.
Now, he doesn't mention, nowhere in this does it mention that the brother, again, was a commander of Hezbollah.
We're just talking about the toys that are now there in that bombed-out house and how sad he was to lose his brother, a commander of Hezbollah.
Hezbollah Commander Points Gun at Officers00:05:28
Just take a moment.
You want to feel a little victory?
This comes from NPR.
We defunded it.
Yeah.
Feels good, doesn't it?
You did the right thing.
There is right and there is almost right.
Defunding NPR?
Absolutely right.
Then you have this story.
Police standoff at the children's hospital ended tragically Thursday morning, but a new bizarre detail about the story has emerged.
You can't outbizar anything in the news today.
There's no way you could get more bizarre than just the regular news today.
Dallas police were conducting an investigation into a man who had an active warrant.
They followed him into the parking garage of the children's health hospital late at night.
He had a gun and he pointed it towards officers.
Police say the man known as Mike King went in the parking garage, barricaded himself inside a vehicle, refused to come out.
He came out of the vehicle.
When he did, he had a gun.
He pointed it towards the officers.
Officers shot and fired.
SWAT Medical Services attempted to render aid, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
Boohoo.
Let's a moment to cry and shed a tear.
Okay, I think that's enough time.
Apparently, Mike King was the head of the security services for Jasmine Crockett.
And I have to tell you, when I first heard this story, I thought, boy, the people on the left, they sure know how to pick their security people, don't they?
I mean, yeah.
He was wanted by police for impersonating a law enforcement officer.
He allegedly also drove a replica undercover police vehicle.
What exactly is a replica undercover police vehicle?
I don't know what that would be.
While using license plates that were allegedly stolen from cars outside of a military recruiting office, this guy couldn't get any dirtier.
I mean, he just couldn't be more obvious a bad guy.
Let's see.
Impersonating a law enforcement officer drove a replica undercover police vehicle.
I don't know what that is, while using license plates that he stole from cars outside of a military recruiting office.
Wow, this is quite the story.
He had been using several different aliases while conducting his business, which was called off-duty police services.
The online platform connected North Texas police officers with off-duty work.
Representative Crockett's office has declined to comment on the multiple reports.
I'm not sure what she would say other than, wait, what?
Let me take you to this story.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was asked on Sunday, why do you think the Democrats are not passing the funding for DHS?
This is Maria Bartoromo.
She said to Sean Duffy, are Democrats waiting for Americans to get hurt or killed before they make your security a top priority?
Look, Senator Slotkin from Michigan, where the synagogue attack was.
She voted every time against funding DHS.
And once the threat to her community was real from radicals, now she says, let's open up DHS.
I think that begs the question.
Are Democrats going to get hurt or get people killed before they actually put your security before those who have come to this country unlawfully and illegally?
I hope that's not their position, but we could get to a better place if they would just come to their senses and negotiate after they open up.
I think they're going to pay a heavy, heavy price on this.
I mean, did you hear about the guy?
Did you hear about Kyle Chris?
I mean, is that just an obvious bad guy's name?
Because everybody in Texas knows who Chris Kyle is.
Your name is Kyle Chris?
Really?
I mean, you would meet that guy at a party, at least here in Texas, and everybody would be like, who's the dude calling himself Kyle Chris?
Okay, maybe it's just me.
Let me see.
Dan Crenshaw in the news telling Margaret Brennan that misinformation played a role in his stunning loss?
No.
No.
Dan, I think it was you that played a stunning role in your stunning loss myself.
And one other story before I get to something else that there is a great op-ed on X that I read about what the left is doing to itself.
I'm sorry, what the right is doing to itself.
Let me give you this story.
Former Obama campaign managers warn the Democratic Party is a mess.
Mercury One Aids Ground Forces00:02:55
The campaign managers for Barack Obama say the party is a mess ahead of the 2028 presidential election due to the fact they don't know what they stand for.
Okay.
All right.
Yes, true.
And yet you're not hearing anybody in the media talk about that.
You're not talking about how they don't have any clue as to what they stand for.
And when they do stand for something, the American people are against it.
Instead, we're only hearing talk about one thing.
And I think it should stop.
And I'm going to tell you, give you an op-ed that I found this weekend that I thought was worth your time hearing.
We'll do that here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about Mercury One.
You know, when you watch the news during war, everything feels strangely distant.
You see maps on a screen and you hear analysts talking about strategy and missile strikes and movements and troops, and it all sounds big and important.
But far, far away, there are people living there.
War is never distant.
It's a series of daily horrors to those people.
And in moments like that, humanitarian aid isn't just helpful.
It can be life-saving.
That's exactly why Tanya and I founded Mercury One.
When disaster strikes, whether it's war, floods, wildfires, or other emergencies, Mercury One works with trusted partners on the ground to get food and supplies and real help into the hands of people who need it as quickly as possible.
This organization has done so much that I will write down that can be released in a book or whatever after I die, because then I can't be blamed for spilling things, or after certain people die, because they're the ones saying you can't ever tell this.
And I have to tell you, miracles have happened through Mercury One.
And I wish I could tell you some of the things that I have witnessed through other people just doing miraculous things.
You know, we have smuggled surgeons into countries, more than one, into countries.
So people can get help when they are locked away in a safe house and they're dying and they need a surgeon.
We have had surgeons smuggled into countries and done surgery in safe houses.
It's crazy what this organization has done.
They don't beat their chest.
I think they should.
But it's mercury1.org.
Mercury1.org.
If you wouldn't mind just $15 a month, it'll go right directly to the maximum impact fund.
Every dollar keeps us ready, boots on the ground, planes in the air, so we don't actually have to put real boots on the ground.
It's a light in the darkness.
It's mercury1.org.
Help us, will you?
mercuryone.org.
Real Conservatives Are Tired But Fighting00:04:00
10 seconds, station ID.
Ed von Swal wrote on X, we witnessed one of the greatest political comebacks of all time.
We won the presidency.
We won the Senate.
We won the House.
We won the demographics nobody thought were possible.
We won in places nobody thought were winnable at all.
And then, somehow, the most influential voices on our side decided that the most important thing to do with that historic mandate was to tear each other apart.
Right now, as you read this, the Democrats are doing exactly what they always do after they lose.
They're not bitching or moaning at each other.
They're not pointing fingers on podcasts, and they're definitely not busy demoralizing their base.
They're organizing.
You see all the paid protesters, right?
You think they aren't good at organizing?
Think again.
On the other hand, our podcast crowd is in full-blown public meltdown that would make real housewife producers look like total bitches.
Zero people in the conservative base have asked for this.
Not one person.
I can't thank you enough, Matt, for writing this.
Not a single person, not any of us, have ever talked to in real life somebody who is sitting there going, you know what we really need to do right now is watch my favorite podcasters go to war with each other.
Nobody's thinking that.
They're thinking about the mortgage, their kids, their country.
They want to win and they want results.
They want the people with the biggest platforms and the loudest voices to wake up every single morning with their guns drawn and all the guns to be pointed at exactly the same target.
But instead, we're getting this crap.
And everyone, every single person on the right is exhausted.
This is obvious if you spend five minutes outside of a podcast studio talking to actual conservatives.
You know this to be true.
We on the right, the real people, are tired, but we're not tired of fighting.
We're tired of watching the fight go in the wrong direction.
We want the border secured.
We want our grocery bill to come down.
We want our kids to get a real education.
We want Democrats out of power at every level, school board, state legislator, Congress, all of it.
That's the assignment.
That's always been the assignment.
That's what we care about most of all.
But instead, what we have are grown-up adults with eight-figure audiences spending their airtime on personal beef that does absolutely nothing for a single voter anywhere.
Every minute spent on intra-podcast drama is a minute not spending on helping flip a house seat.
Every episode built around attacking somebody on the same team is an episode that could have explained to a persuadable voter why they should never vote Democrat again.
This opportunity cost is staggering and nobody is willing just to say it.
We are sick of it and it's insanely dangerous.
You know who doesn't do this crap?
The Democratic Party.
They're ruthless about one thing.
When it's time to win, they fall in line.
They swallow their pride.
They campaign with people they can't stand and they win.
They're not confused about who the enemy is.
Matt, you're right.
more on this in a minute.
Democrats Fall in Line to Win00:17:21
Let me tell you about one of the strangest crimes that exist today.
It's called being you.
Except you're not the one being you.
Somebody else is being you.
They're using your name, your credit, your social security number.
They're opening accounts, applying for loans, maybe even committing crimes.
And as far as the paperwork is concerned, it all looks like you.
You know, it's one of the weirdest things about the modern world.
Somebody can live an entire financial life under your identity while you're just going about your day, completely unaware that any of this is happening.
And many people don't find out until a bill arrives for something they ever bought or a collection agency calls for a debt that they never created.
Or worse yet, somebody comes knocking on your door to repossess your house.
This is why Lifelock exists.
LifeLock monitors millions of data points every single second, looking for signs that somebody may be trying to use your personal information.

This Thursday, the Torch special that will probably get Glenn canceled again.
The Dangerous Truth About Islam's Plans for the West, only at glennbeck.com slash torch.
You know, I want to talk to you.
I want to continue the conversation that we were just having about the people on our side that are in podcasting and everything else that are going after each other.
And I'm doing my damnedest to stay out of this because I don't, I just, I think it's, in some ways, it's really childish, especially some of the stuff that's being said on X.
It's just so unbelievably childish.
And I don't want to watch people that I like fighting with each other.
Stop it.
Just stop it.
You're not going to change anybody's mind.
Whose mind are you going to change on that?
You know, you're just hardening positions, and I hate it.
So, you know, I don't want to get involved in it.
But I, you know, there's there are points in some of these things that we should talk about because, you know, one of them came out this weekend and said, I'm under attack by the DOJ and the CIA.
And I, you know, there's no verification of this yet.
It probably is true, but I don't know.
You know, I would like to see it verified.
But there's a lot of nuance to some of this.
And we have to be really, really thoughtful on what we are doing.
You know, when the country goes to war, you know, your job is not to become blind with patriotism or blind with resentment.
You know, a journalist can never become a stenographer for the state.
He is not the laundry service for propaganda from foreign governments either.
It is a very important role.
And journalism has been so sullied.
I mean, it's 9%.
I could be wrong, but I think the mullah in Iran, I think they might have a higher rating now than the media and journalists do here in America.
I mean, it's that bad.
It's that bad.
It's 9%.
When it comes to war, your job becomes really, really hard.
Your job is to tell the truth with enough courage to resist your own federal government and enough discipline to resist the enemy's invitation to become a useful idiot.
You know, you have to have a bigger picture on what is important.
What is really important.
We're trying to save the West.
And so telling the truth.
And I want you to know, if you believe a war is unjust or unwise, you have not only the right to say it, I think you have the duty to say it.
If you think your country is involved in a war, I support you 100%.
This is wrong.
We shouldn't be doing it.
I support your right to say that.
I may disagree with you, but you have the right to say it.
As a journalist, you also have a right to say it.
If you believe the public case to go into war is weak and you don't believe it, you have every right and duty to investigate.
If you believe one of our allies is pushing hardest for war and it has its own personal interests, you have every right to expose them.
Every right.
I mean, well, you just have every right to expose them.
I think you're a little foolish to think that we don't push people, our allies, into wars, you know, and say, hey, no, this is really good for you.
It's not necessarily great for them.
It's good for us.
I mean, that's what a country does.
That's what every country does.
But anyway, but you have a right to investigate that and to expose it.
You have that right.
If you believe something's wrong, that's journalism.
But you have to back it up with facts, not just saying, I know, I know, I know this to be true.
How do you know that to be true?
When it comes to things that are shaping policy and shaping perception, especially when it is shaping perception away from your own country, even though you think that it's doing good for your country, and it might in the end, if you're right, but you can't go with unverified claims, especially if they are from hostile sources, you know?
You have the right to go and meet with the other side.
Okay.
You have a right to go meet with them.
You have a right to go do an interview with them.
You have a right to broadcast that.
But you have to alert people.
I can't believe I'm saying this.
CNN actually did the right thing.
CNN had sources in Iran.
And before any time that reporter came on, they said, we want you to know that our reporter in Iran is only able to be there at the specific grace of the Iranian government.
In other words, we're not vouching for anything.
They're watching everything that he says.
Okay.
So take it for what it's worth.
That's what they were saying.
And that's what you have to do.
If you want to have credibility, you have to have that credibility and say those things.
You know, there are things that you can't do.
But one thing that you can do is have all these conversations with people overseas.
But then to come on and say, and they're spying on me.
If you are having conversation, this is the Patriot Act.
I don't like the Patriot Act.
I don't want the Patriot Act.
But the Patriot Act is current law.
I'd like it to be not current law.
I'd like to do everything we can to get rid of the Patriot Act, but it is current law.
If you are talking to somebody that is from the country or somebody, an individual that has been deemed a foreign terrorist organization, that would be Iran, you can guarantee that the United States government is listening to you.
If they have an enemies list and that person or that group of people are on their enemies list, that's what the Patriot Act says.
This is one of the things I hate, is as long as you're calling from outside, they can wiretap.
And once you've made contact, then they can drag you in to wiretap everything.
And it's wrong.
I don't like it, but that is the law.
So don't act shocked by it.
Of course they are.
And especially at times of war.
They always do that.
Always do that.
That doesn't mean that's espionage that you're doing.
It doesn't mean that you're doing anything wrong.
It just means, of course they're doing that.
Again, the Patriot Act.
So your argument should not be about what this government is doing, shock of all shocks.
No.
Here's another reason why the Patriot Act should be repealed because I don't like it, but I'm not surprised by it because that's what the law says.
That's what they can do.
You know, you can seek access to hostile officials.
You can be a legitimate journalist.
You can do that.
But you should also have the responsibility to say, am I concealing provenance on any of this?
Am I granting strategic favors for anybody?
Am I carrying messages for somebody else without disclosing?
Am I independently verifying and then showing that?
Or am I just amplifying?
Am I transparent with everybody?
Those are the things we all have to ask ourselves now, not just that individual or any of the individuals, because you have a right.
And in fact, I'm going to go a step further.
Our founders came to a point to where they were arguing about this.
Can you lie in the press?
Can you lie about a government official?
Can the press lie?
Yes.
Yes, they can.
What?
How does that make sense?
It makes sense because the founders realized that the government has ultimate control over so much that if they want to take you and say you're lying, they could withhold information due to secrecy or anything else.
They could also taint everything against you.
And then the government, the judge, is the one that is making the decision.
We're seeing this now.
The judge is part of the government.
If they're part of that cabal, how are you going to get a fair trial?
So they came to a place to where, yes, you can lie about the government.
And that's where we come in.
Our job is to say, they shouldn't have done that.
That was a lie.
They shouldn't have lied to us.
So I will no longer listen to that source.
I can't trust that source, so I will no longer.
And we've done that to a lot of people, but how many people have we do we have?
I said earlier, only Louis C.K. is the only guy who's like, no one will listen to anything he has to say anymore.
And he didn't do anything wrong.
He wasn't lying to, he didn't even lie to the women.
He told them exactly what he was doing.
But oh, God forbid.
Everybody else just gets a free pass.
That's our fault.
That's not the journalist's fault.
That's our fault.
No free pass on that.
Now let me switch to Brendan Carr.
Brennan Carr is one of my favorite commissioners.
I've never had, I mean, I can't say one of my.
He's the only guy I've ever liked in the FCC.
And he is now pushing for broadcasters to lose their license because they're pushing fake news.
This story is incredibly important.
And it's important that you understand what the FCC is and what the power they have.
I am not a fan of the FCC at all.
But again, it's been around since the Federal Communications Act of what, 1936.
So this is the law of the land.
What is it that he is suggesting?
Because everybody doesn't make this into totalitarianism.
And again, I don't like it.
But what is it that he's saying?
We'll do that in 60 seconds first.
International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
There is a moment in history where a nation stands almost alone.
And you can feel that happening today.
The headlines get darker.
The pressure builds.
And suddenly the country at the center of it all just isn't dealing with its own problems.
It's standing in the crosshairs of the entire world.
Israel has lived with that reality for a long time.
And over and over and over again, throughout their history, that small little country surrounded by threats, filled with ordinary families who are just trying to do, you know, the things that we all want to do.
Just raise your family, build a future, live your life in peace.
When the conflict erupts, those families are the ones who feel it first.
Sirens, rockets, uncertainty about what tomorrow will bring.
That's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews exists and has for decades.
They've helped Christians stand with the people in Israel in a practical way.
I don't care what you think about the government.
Can you imagine if we were really struggling and we were under attack, we needed food, and the rest of the world said, those damn Americans, they deserve it.
I'm not my government.
I might disagree with what my government has done.
You know, for the love of Pete, help me.
Don't see groups, see individuals.
Right now, $45, you can rush life-saving essentials to the vulnerable under fire right now.

You know, the host does have to pee every now and then.
Glenn Beck will be right back.
Alright.
Just writing to Gad Sad.
Gad made a comment earlier on X.
I wrote, Islamism is revolutionary, apocalyptic ideology that is behind the Iranian regime, and it is absolutely cancer.
He wrote and he said, that is Islam, and there is no distinction between the two.
And while I see his point, there is reformation that can happen.
That would be like saying there's no difference between somebody who is reading the Old Testament, like, you know, I've got to have blood sacrifices and people who read the Old Testament the way it is.
Now, there has not been a reformation period of Islam, but there are people pushing for that.
And that is a difference.
Political Islam is cancer.
And there is no difference if you don't reform it.
But there are reformers, and they should be included in that conversation.
And I just would love to have a debate with Gad and one of the reformers to talk about that because I bet you they agree on a lot.
And, you know, I really, because I have so much respect for Gad, this is the kind of conversation that I want to start to have.
I want to start bringing people who we agree on 80% of everything.
Can we not call each other, Gad did not, but can we not, can we stop calling each other names and saying, this person is evil and they're a traitor and start having real conversations because the questions that are being asked about this war,
about our relationship with Israel, about, you know, the war with Islam, all of these things, there are valid questions that should be asked and answered, but you're not going to get it with bomb throwing.
And I just, maybe it's my age showing here, but I am just so tired of the circus.
I just, if we're going to solve it, we are dealing with life and death issues for the republic.
Can we have real conversations about it?
Time for a Civilized Debate00:01:29
Can we actually bring really smart people on, I was going to say all sides, but I don't need all sides.
I don't need the far left in.
I got it.
I know their point of view.
People who would agree with, hey, the Republic is worth saving.
And it's made a lot of mistakes, but it's worth saving.
Can we get those people in a room and start having conversations and say, let's work out our difference without name-calling and straw men and all of that stuff?
Because if you want the republic to go on, you believe in the founding fathers and the bill of rights.
I believe in that.
Okay, so that's the big principle that can hold us together.
Can we just, can we at least have a debate, a civilized debate on the other things, so we can at least learn from one another?
I want to understand how you're thinking.
And I don't claim to have the answer.
I mean, what Gad said, there's no distinction between the two.
I've had that thought myself, but then I know people who are reformers.
And I believe they're good people that believe in the Bill of Rights.
They do not want political Islam.
So how do we solve that?
That's a conversation worth having.
And we will have it on this program.
And Gad has already said, I'm out this week, but I will come on the program.
We are going to have those kinds of conversations because they need to be Clamback is on, on, on.
