Glenn Beck and Tommy Robinson confront a "Red-Green Alliance" threatening Western stability, citing Alexander Dugan's call for Shia Muslims to unite against the U.S. and new UK blasphemy laws that suppress truth about Islam while imprisoning citizens like Lucy Connolly. They link these tactics to broader authoritarian shifts, contrasting them with Donald Trump's potential war on Iran and the ironic capitalist turn of Fidel Castro's grandson. The episode concludes by exploring a future space-based economy driven by SpaceX and Blue Origin, arguing that lunar exploration glorifies God, before highlighting Joe Abraham's tragedy where his daughter Katie was killed by an illegal immigrant, exposing political indifference to human life.

Glenn Beck is on.
Hitler's Civilizational Conflict00:13:37
Well, hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We have a lot on our plate yesterday as I was watching all of the news and there is a ton going on with Congress, with corruption, with the Senate, with the Senate.
I guess I don't know.
Are they dressing as Easter bunnies and looking for eggs?
Is that why they need the time off?
With everything that's going on with the president and the war, I have to spend some time today talking about Alexander Dugan.
And if you don't know who Alexander Dugan is, don't worry.
You're not alone.
You're not alone.
But we need to talk about him.
If you've been a longtime listener to this program, I mean, really long.
I think I've been talking about this guy since the 90s.
You may know a little bit about him, but his days are starting to, of real power, are starting to coalesce right now.
And I need you to understand who he is so you can understand your world a little bit better, including that world where you're like, hey, what happened to our, what happened to our podcasters?
What happened to people on our side?
This might explain some of it.

Okay, here's what I posted yesterday in response to Alexander Dugan.
I have warned you about this man literally since the late 1990s.
He is crazy, evil, a Rasputin figure that believes the entire world needs to be washed in blood, just as the Shia 12ers in Iran believe.
He just thinks Russia will survive.
Ha!
Islamists will eat all of us if we don't unite.
This can very well turn into the final battle as this is what all of these people want.
Pray for the Republic.
Dismiss him at your own peril.
His puppets are in our media, EDU, mosques, and churches.
So I'm not going to convince everybody here.
If you don't think that China is influencing our media and our universities, you probably don't believe Russia is either, or that Iran Shia 12vers actually mean to wash the world in blood, or that Hamas raped and killed women on, you know, on October 7th.
And if you don't believe that, you also must believe that, you know, money and sleepers from Iran, you know, are here plotting and planning against us.
If you don't believe any of those things, I'm not going to convince you about one guy in Russia who most people have never even heard of is a threat to us.
And if you don't believe any of that stuff, I'm not going to try to convince you.
It's clear this story, maybe this program is not for you.
But for those who do not wish to push their head in the sand, let me begin here.
Who is Alexander Dugan?
And what did he say to make me say that yesterday online?
Most Americans have never read any of his scholarly books.
Few could summarize his worldview because, again, most have never even read him.
A lot of people in the country will have read him in, they'll grab bits and pieces from sometimes his favorite podcasters and they'll think, wow, you know, this guy's really on the right path.
But with Dugan and his acolytes, you have to be extraordinarily careful because the surface may seem like, oh my gosh, look at that.
That's just a smooth river there.
But the undertow will drag you down, beat you to death, and leave your lifeless body on the rocks near the shoreline in no time.
Now, with that said, just because nobody really knows him or his ideas, that doesn't mean his ideas aren't moving because they are.
Dugan is a political thinker, but not just a political thinker.
He is a guy who is obsessed with civilizational conflict.
He believes liberal democracy, individual liberty, and Western values are not just wrong, but all must be destroyed.
At the center of his philosophy is something that I think is deeply unsettling.
The belief that our current world order over the entire world must collapse violently so something older and darker, more authoritarian can rise in its place.
This is a guy who some would say is Putin's brain that's in dispute.
Don't know if that's true or not, but he is somebody with incredible global reach.
Now he wants to return to a pre-modern order, And when I say modern, pre-modern, I don't mean before there were aeroplanes.
This is a world not of free individuals, but of empires and blood and soil and destiny.
And he doesn't fear chaos.
He welcomes it.
Because in his framework, chaos is not the enemy.
It is the main tool.
His core belief really is not complicated.
He believes that the modern Western world, when I say that again, don't think before the Wright brothers.
Think of everything built since the Enlightenment.
He believes everything since the Enlightenment, including the Enlightenment, is a mistake.
He believes that individual liberty, human rights, equality before the law, these are not, in his view, universal or self-evident truths.
Throw out the idea that all men are created equal.
Throw it out.
He believes these are all illusions, corruptions, and weaknesses that have hollowed out civilization.
So what replaces them?
Well, he's argued openly for what he calls a fourth political theory.
That's the name of one of his books.
It moves beyond liberalism, beyond communism, beyond fascism.
Oh, well, that kind of sounds great.
Beyond fascism.
Sounds academic or even sometimes worth exploring in this age, you know, where everything is breaking down until you understand what it means.
In his belief, he believes that freedom or true liberalism is a poison and that communism tried to wipe it out, but it wasn't strong enough under Stalin.
That fascism under Hitler, Hitler didn't go far enough.
And so he has come up with a fourth way.
His idea means removing the individual from the center of all political life and replacing him with the state, the civilization, the destiny of a people.
So when he says traditional, he doesn't mean, hey, we should all go to church on Sundays and have family dinners.
That's not what he's talking about.
And yet that's the way he's interpreted and he wants you to interpret him that way.
Here's what he said in 2012 when he was a little more stealth.
And people will hang their whole entire support on things like this.
Listen to this, see if it doesn't sound seductive.
Quote, we conservatives, he's not a conservative, by the way, we conservatives want a strong, solid state.
We want order and a healthy family and positive values, the reinforcement of the importance of religion and the church in society.
We want patriotic radio and TV and patriotic experts, patriotic clubs.
We want a media that expresses national interests.
A lot of people will hear that and go, oh, well, he's just like me.
No, he is not.
He is not a conservative.
And all of those things he's using to explain it do not last very long the way you think they do.
Remember, he believes Hitler and Stalin did not go far enough.
He means traditionalism as a return to the world before the Enlightenment.
In other words, what we used to call the Dark Ages.
Hierarchy, empire, power justified not by consent, but by myth, by history, and force.
Brutal force.
Yeah, but Glenn, it's just a book that he's written, a few books.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, well, they're well read by some everywhere.
Yeah, but it's still a book.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Let's remember that that phrase, just a book, is what they said about Mein Kampf.
Just a book also applies to the Bible and the Koran.
In his book, Foundations of Geopolitics, he wrote plainly that Russia should use its intelligence services to destabilize the United States, to disrupt, to divide, and weaken from within.
Do you think any of that is happening now?
This is why they call him Putin's brain.
Do you think any of that is happening now?
Of course it is.
He has been saying this since the 90s, when it was absolutely impossible to believe that it was going to happen, and here it is.
He has described the United States as the central enemy in a civilizational struggle.
Let me use another term, the Great Satan.
Now, who else believes that we are the poison to the world?
Are we fighting them anywhere?
Are we fighting them in our streets, in our universities?
Are they growing in our mosques and in our cities?
Are they now Russian allies?
Russian allies that call us the Great Satan?
Of course they are.
And they are uniting and they are looking for more people to be disenfranchised and to unite with them.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend, they all believe.
He has framed global politics not as cooperation, but as permanent conflict between rival worlds, chaos.
He has unlimited writings and interview, and he comes back over and over again to the same idea, that struggle is not unfortunate.
It's natural and necessary.
Remember, Mein Kampf, what does that translate to?
My struggle.
What is jihad?
My struggle.
Dugan is speaking directly to our struggle that must end in the destruction of the world.
Now you can listen to this as a Westerner and say, Glenn, that is out of your mind crazy.
Nobody, really?
It's no crazier than the Twelvers in Shia Islam.
No more crazy than the people who are marching through our streets today saying we're going to burn the system down.
And the reason why this is really dangerous is because this guy is super, super slick and he wraps himself in religious language.
He speaks of destiny, of a spiritual war, of a sacred struggle.
He is not a Christian, although he aligns himself publicly with the Russian Orthodoxy.
But if you really look at him, no, his thinking is not rooted in any kind of Christian theology.
None of it.
None of it.
He pulls from mysticism, philosophy of man.
Antichrist Style Figure00:15:02
He is the stew that cooked up Hitler around the turn of the century, 30 years before Hitler was around.
What you get will be something that sounds like faith, but is definitely not faith.
Religion not as submission to God, but as a tool of power, identity, and mobilization.
A philosophy which works as a religion, but preaches chaos and the current world order has to collapse.
He doesn't fear instability.
He calls for it.
He argues that geopolitical disorder should be introduced into the West.
That, listen to this, internal division should be amplified and that the system should be weakened in any way it can until it gives way.
Give me 60 seconds.
I want you to ponder that just for a second, for 60 seconds.
I'll come back and give you some more context here.
First, you ever find yourself find something in your house that feels like a time capsule, maybe a bulky old box in the attic, which you haven't opened in years, and then you open it up and it's like old tapes and photos or film reels.
Things you know that matter, but you haven't experienced in a long, long time.
And you think, wow, I should go through this, but life keeps happening and you don't go through it.
And the box gets put back on the shelf where it sits a little longer.
And the longer it sits, the more those memories start to slip away, not all at once, but little by little as the formats themselves wear down or become harder to access.
And this is where Legacy Box comes in.
They take your old tapes and your old film reels and your photos and they digitize them and they turn them into modern formats that are easy to watch and share and preserve for years to come.
So the memories don't stay tucked away.
They become something that you can actually see and share with your family.

10 second station i want you to i want you to listen to those around you who are leading you down this new fourth political theory and you don't even know
If you ever hear somebody talk about how great Sharia law is in the Middle East and some of these great Middle Eastern countries, they have Sharia law or these great countries run by dictators.
They're clean.
The streets are clean.
Everything is in order.
People are proud of their civilization.
Yeah, I bet they are.
I bet they are.
And that's what happens when you have absolute law and you have no freedom.
Oh, they've got lots of freedom.
Do they?
Do they?
Look at the remedy is not to take on the chains of authoritarianism or Sharia law.
It is to fix ourselves.
But some of our friends actually believe that we're gone.
We're too far gone to save.
And so let's just let it go and find a new political idea.
And Dugan is there to pitch the utopia.
For those, I want you to really listen to me.
Do you actually think many of our friends just started thinking like this overnight and are now in lockstep out of nowhere?
Some of them are because they don't know.
Some of them are very well educated.
Some of them have read his work.
Many have met with him.
Some have worked with him, shared stages with him.
And indeed, a few have even laundered his words with innocent sounding interviews.
Let me be super clear on this.
Alexander Dugan and his ideas are a clear and present danger to our country, to your church.
They are a clear and present danger to you and your children and your very soul.
I have been warning about this guy for 30 years.
He is very clever.
His influence is global and his first goal is to divide us.
This is why I'm super clear on you must never play into the I hate this person today and so you must too.
I hate this podcaster.
That's why I'm not talking about podcasters by name because I don't care about them.
I care about what is being taught, the principles that are being taught.
You can avoid this or you can look it in the face and destroy it.
I ask you to share this information with your friends, but do not spread hatred of people, only the facts.
Let others choose their own path.
Do not throw your pearls in front of swine.
Alert all those with eyes to see and ears to hear.
If they cannot see it, they cannot hear it, move on.
But I promise you, you will not defeat this evil ideology with hatred.
In fact, just the opposite.
It needs your hatred.
It feeds on your hatred.
It needs it to divide and collapse us.
Because in his framework, collapse is not failure.
Collapse is the key.
It's tradition or transition.
It's what is needed.
Now, there are claims that say that he is coordinating directly with Iranian clerics.
I happen to believe them, that he's personally infiltrating Western institutions and churches and media ecosystems.
I know this to be true.
I've seen enough evidence.
I've outlied them year after year in specials and show after show.
I know them to be true, but they are things that I can't, I don't have my fingertips today and claims that are not going to convince everybody.
Okay, so let's dismiss all of that.
In his tweet yesterday, let's just deal with this.
He is speaking to the Shia 12ers and indeed the entirety of Islam.
This is real and observable.
If he's only making deals, let me say this.
His ideas align with other movements and regimes that also reject liberal democracy, that also frame the world in apocalyptic or civilizational terms, that also see the West as something that needs to be destroyed.
And that alignment is enough to matter because ideas don't need formal alliances to spread.
They move through agreement.
So what is it he said?
Because it's not confined to Russia.
It's traveling.
It's adapting.
It's finding audiences.
Sometimes on the far right, sometimes on the far left, but anywhere where there's hatred and disillusionment, where there's distrust of institutions and hunger for something more rooted and traditional.
That is the gateway.
But again, it's not about preserving tradition the way you would understand it.
It's about replacing freedom with control, replacing truth with power, replacing faith with the kind of political mysticism that borrows religious language, but is it empty at its core?
This is a spiritual battle and his teachings and his influence is the inversion of everything that built Western civilization.
And the problem is the idea itself to burn down the world to remake it.
It is an antichrist view.
It is the view of an antichrist style figure.
So what is it that he said yesterday that prompted this rant?
Next.

Glenn and an Illinois father stand at the exact place where his 20-year-old daughter was killed by an illegal immigrant.
Watch the powerful interview now, only at glenbeck.com slash torch.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
I want to bring Ricky and Jason in on this conversation about Alexander Dugan because, you know, Alexander Dugan, people have said, though, for the longest time, he's not really for the destruction.
He's really writing this in a book.
Because listen to what he's saying.
He's saying we should get back to faith.
We should get back to traditional values.
And I've said, yeah, listen to what else he's saying.
It's the same kind of people that would read Mein Kampf and say, well, he doesn't really mean that about the Jews.
He just means we should be a strong Germany.
Nope.
Nope.
He means it.
And yesterday, the mask came off.
Yesterday, he tweeted, quote, enough with sectarian fractions.
All Shia should join the final battle.
All real Muslims also.
It is a unique chance to achieve the victory over common enemy.
Now, let's look at this, shall we?
Can we dissect this, Jason?
You help me here.
Oh, yeah.
Enough with sectarian.
He says fractions, but I think he means factions.
What does that mean, Jason?
I think he's asking both Sunni and Shia Muslims to come together for ultimate destruction, basically, to join forces to fight against us.
All Shia should join the final battle.
He is calling on all Shia Muslims all over the world to join the final battle.
What does he mean, Jason, by the final battle?
It's interesting.
So final battle can really only mean one thing, and that's what the 12, if you're a 12 or Shia, this is lighting off in your brain like crazy right now.
But the final battle will be the legit final battle Armageddon that's going to wash the world in blood if you're a 12.
So if you're a 12ver, this is them.
This is like a Christian saying, we got to unite right now and get into this war because there will be a massive slaughter.
It'll start the clock ticking and we'll have the seven years of tribulation and Jesus will come back.
That's exactly what this language means.
Okay.
All Shia should join the final battle.
All real Muslims too.
It's a unique chance to achieve the victory over the common enemy.
Who's the common enemy?
The great Satan and the little Satan.
But make no mistakes, forget about little Satan.
If you defeat little Satan, but you don't do anything on great Satan, it means nothing.
The real target is us.
Why is it that, how come?
I wonder, you know, why we're not in the book of Revelation.
Why isn't America in the book of Revelation?
Maybe because we don't exist.
Maybe because we slept.
Maybe because we wouldn't take people seriously when they say these crazy things.
Do you think the media would be all over if I got on the air and said, we've got to join this battle right now?
We've got to get our arms.
In fact, we need nuclear weapons.
We need to launch nuclear weapons against the Islamic world and wash the Islamic world in blood because Jesus will come soon.
Do you think they would pay attention to that?
Of course they would.
Because they would say Glenn Beck is a crazy, crazy, out-of-control religious zealot.
And you know what?
If I actually said and believed those things, I would be a dangerous religious zealot.
Luckily, that's not what Christianity teaches.
But if you are a 12ver, a Shia 12, or quite honestly, any of the crazy ass Muslims, you are, you believe this.
And so the mask has come off.
He is not look when he says, I'm just a traditionalist, you know, and when people who are schlepping this online, and believe me, they are, when they are schlepping this online and in their podcasts, and when they're introducing you to new figures that kind of think like this, not exactly.
They're not crazy.
I'm just asking questions.
It's not crazy.
It's just I believe in traditionalism.
Believe me, this is the stuff they are selling you.
Can you help me square something?
I remember when he released his book, The Great Awakening versus the Great Reset, it was actually targeted towards the American heartline.
Heartland, rather.
Interesting.
People who were anti-globalist, people who believed in traditional values, the family, they were patriots.
So how in the heck is this man who's been trying to court this base of our population, how does he do it when he says he wants to annihilate it?
Because did you read, did you read the book?
I read much of it because we were required to as Glenn Beck fans.
That's right.
Okay.
So you read much of it.
If you read all of it or if you remember what you read, and I know we read so much here, if you remember what you read, at the first part of it, you're like, this guy kind of makes sense, right?
Right?
First chapter, maybe the first two, you're like, yeah, boy, this guy gets it.
We are.
We are falling apart.
This is happening.
This is happening.
Root of Enemy Thinking00:08:43
And then you get later in the book, you get into it and you're like, oh, wait, He's talking about the apocalypse.
He's talking about cheering on the apocalypse.
So all he's looking for are the disenfranchised.
He needs us to be angry with one another.
He needs us to hate one another.
He needs us to point out enemies all the time.
Okay.
None of these people who are saying these things are my enemies.
They are sadly, horribly misguided.
But I am not going to get into a personality game.
I'm going to talk about the principles.
The principles that they are preaching now stem from this kind of thinking and this guy, and they are dangerous.
And you're not going to be able to convince everybody.
You're just not.
But those with eyes and ears to see and hear, they will wake up.
They will see it.
And once you see it, you'll go, oh, I shouldn't even question this anymore.
Why is this happening to this person?
Why is this person doing it?
When you see that once they are in bed with this kind of poison, dismiss them.
Dismiss them and never go back.
There is one thing to say, I keep an open mind.
There is another to say, I don't need to hear that.
Once I recognize, oh, that is antichrist thinking.
Once you recognize that, there is no reason to go back to that box and go, well, what are they saying today?
Nope.
Nope.
And you're not going to change everybody.
And you're certainly not going to do it by picking fights with personalities.
Talk principles.
This is the root of this kind of thinking.
And he needs us to hate.
He needs us to be divided.
Why do you think, why do you think some of us have been saying to others, please don't pick this fight.
Please.
I mean, I understand how you got in the fight.
I mean, Ricky has had to restrain me a couple of times from saying a few things.
Why are you picking this fight?
Well, because somebody has to say it right.
But why have I not got into this fight?
Because hatred needs it.
It grows.
It feeds on it.
It feeds on it.
I have already done too much damage today.
I want you to take the best parts of what I have said to you today and ponder these things.
Pray on these things.
When somebody is, I mean, do you not think with enough with the sectarian factions, all Shia should join the final battle, all real Muslims also.
It's a unique chance to achieve the victory over the common enemy.
In 2024, he also said we should give nukes to the Palestinians and nukes to anyone who would fight against the real enemy.
Again, us.
Give nukes to the Palestinians.
Give nukes to anyone who would fight against us.
That we should all join in the final battle.
Does any of that sound like good advice?
Not to me, it doesn't.
But you know what?
A lot of people marching in the streets today, Americans, they are so deeply disenfranchised and so deeply fogged that they would think that that's a good idea.
Yeah, you know what?
America's had all this strength all the time.
They have nuclear weapons.
Why shouldn't they?
Why shouldn't the Palestinians have nuclear weapons?
I'm telling you.
I'm telling you, it is no longer logical.
And you're not going to be able to save everybody.
I'm concerned about my soul.
I'm concerned about my children's soul.
My job and my faith requires me to be concerned about your soul over the republic.
Your soul is at stake.
People are going to end up on the wrong side.
They're not even going to know it.
They're just not even going to know it.
And it will happen through people like this that are telling you, I understand how you feel.
I get it.
I get it.
This country really has screwed you, hasn't it?
This country is so far off base.
This country has, look at its poverty, its crime in the streets.
Its judges don't listen anymore.
The politicians don't answer to you.
There's nothing.
You know what the problem is?
All this freedom.
I know that sounds crazy, right?
Sounds crazy, all this freedom.
But you know what?
If we just had a few people step in with some more power, well, then they would be able to solve all this stuff.
And they'd be able to correct the problem.
Well, how do you correct the problem when your politicians can't convince half the population that it's wrong?
How do you correct that?
Well, a strongman knows how to correct it.
You start rounding people up or you start shooting people.
That's how it happens.
And what does that lead to?
More freedom or less freedom?
And if we're all in a free society, what is the best way to tear it apart from the outside or the inside?
To have us question.
You know, one of the things he did, he wrote that book for the red states, specifically targeting MAGA people.
He has been targeting MAGA to rip MAGA apart.
Let me ask you something.
With all this stuff that you're seeing happening right now, currently, online, do you think MAGA is going to be strong or weak?
Are we making MAGA stronger?
Do we have an unstoppable force like we had in 2024 where we're all standing together and we're all in lockstep?
Or are we all now questioning and dividing?
And is it getting better or worse?
Whose plan do you think that is?
I believe there's only two options in front of us.
We restore the Constitution and our principles as we know them, or as we should know them.
Restore those things and try to spread them throughout the whole world to help free more men and women.
And not through military, but through the way we run our country and we live our lives.
People flocked here before because of it, because we lived them.
At least we tried to.
We believed in them.
We corrected our mistakes.
There's either that, restore this nation back to its first principles or face a final battle.
Now, maybe that final battle is just for the Western world.
Maybe that is capital F, capital B, capital final battle.
I don't know.
But those are our two choices.
Restore sanity and come back to our founding principles or destroy it all.
I know what side Dugan is on.
I know what side he is pushing.
And I know how he is doing it, trying to appeal to people who just want common sense.
It is not common sense.
It is evil.
And it is now being spread by our own side.
Be very careful.
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.
Evil Limiting Speech00:16:02
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.

Glenn Beck is back after this.
So this is from the Washington Free Beacon.
This is Michigan's left-wing Democratic Senate candidate talking to staffers about why he needs to remain quiet.
Cut eight.
Listen.
So, like, this is going to destabilize region.
I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today.
So, like, I just don't want to comment on Khamani Khamenei at all.
I don't think it's worth even touching that.
But, like, we have the moral high ground here.
I think the more we stay out of like, they're going to try and bait us into saying, yeah, but isn't it justified now that they took him out?
Right.
And I just think that's only frightened anybody that there is a guy who is running for Senate, probably will win, that doesn't want to say anything about the Ayatollah being killed because a lot of his constituents like the Ayatollah.
That should bother you.
Now, but don't worry.
Nobody's interested in washing the world in blood.
Okay, we're gonna move on.
Maybe some happier things next.
I don't think I have to work real hard to convince you that things are a little unstable right now.
You see it in the headlines, you hear it in the way people talk.
There is this undercurrent of uncertainty about what is happening overseas, what could happen here, what comes next.
And if history has taught us anything, it's this.
By the time people realize they need to prepare, it's too late.
The shelves are empty.
The options are gone.
And everybody's trying to solve the same problem at the same time.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
There's a lot to talk about.
The hostile takeover of the West from the Islamic world is relentless, and it is the Red-Green Alliance that is making all of this happen.
And that means those people who are communist and Marxist are gathering together and working together with the Islamists.
And you're seeing it on our streets.
How do you get the godless marching, you know, the ones who's like, you know, God must be destroyed, marching with the Islamists?
How?
Because they each think, well, in the end, after we knock off capitalism and America, we'll eat the other one.
I'd put my money on the people who actually believe in God and God's telling them to blow people up.
I'd bet on those people being the winners in the end, but they're too stupid to get it, even though this is exactly how things played out in 1979 in Iran with the Marxists and the Islamists.
Tommy Robinson is here because I read about this blasphemy law that is going into place in England, and I don't know how he doesn't spend the rest of his life in jail.
If this all is what it appears to be and is enforceable, you're not going to be able to say anything, anything that makes anybody who is a Muslim feel uncomfortable.
Well, how do you save your nation if that is true?
Tommy is going to join me here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about Burn a Launcher.
You know how much time you actually have to react in a life-threatening situation on average?
Believe it or not, half a second.
That's, you know, half a second is not enough time to figure out, oh, what exactly do we, what are the ramifications of all this?
You just have, something is wrong, you have to respond.
And by the time the mind catches up to the body, you may be already, you know, in a situation that you just don't want to be in.
Action is always faster than reaction.
So when something happens, you know, somebody approaches too fast, something doesn't feel right, situation turns.
You don't have time to think it through.
You have to get to the moment.
And that moment is everything.
And that's why the Burna Launcher matters.
It gives you a non-lethal way to respond immediately using powerful pepper and kinetic projectiles that can stop a threat from a distance.
It's legal in all 50 states.
No permit is required.
But when you only have a fraction of a second, you don't want to be deciding what to do.
You want to be ready.

Tommy, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
How are you, Glenn?
I am great.
Are you still in America or are you back in England?
I'm still here, mate.
I'm still here.
Still in America.
Good.
Still free.
Good.
Well, thank you.
Thank you for everything that you're doing.
I've been watching you online and you're absolutely fearless.
I was thinking about you the other day when I started to see the blasphemy laws, things that you are very clear about, and you have already gone to jail several times in England.
And I thought, how are you going to be able to survive if they can put you in jail for saying anything offensive to any Muslim?
Well, this is their problem.
Their problem always has been that I always speak facts.
So they've never been able to arrest me, imprison me on any of those issues because I've never been arrested.
People always had the accusations that I incite hate.
But we have strict laws against incitement to hatred, which I never do.
So everything I speak is facts.
So they've never been able to come criminally and prosecute us because I'm merely speaking facts and truth.
And that's what this law they're now bringing in is about.
They don't want the public to be aware of facts or truth.
If you speak the truth about Islam, they want to limit what you can say.
And that's now what their new law intends to do.
So how you have this huge rally that is coming up in just a few weeks.
And by the way, taking you up on your invitation, I want to be there and I'm going to be there.
Brilliant, Glenn.
I'm excited to see what you're doing and putting together.
But how is this not just a giant trap for blasphemy laws?
Because you're clearly going to be saying facts about what Islamists are doing.
Yeah, this law won't change anything I say.
So if I'm honest, I'm just, I will continue.
I won't limit my speech if I'm telling the truth.
If that means I'll end up in prosecutions, it means I'll end up in prosecution.
Sometimes I think that that's what's needed.
J.K. Rowling, they brought in a law.
She breached a Scottish law.
I can't remember it.
To do with transgenderism.
So the Scottish government brought in some law to do with transgenderism.
J.K. Rowland, if I remember rightly, breached it straight away.
Breached it straight away.
They never criminally prosecuted her.
But then they go after the small fish.
They still use the law to go after certain people.
Most of these laws are about installing fear.
I don't know if you've seen what they've done now where they've removed that or the Labour government intend to remove the jury service.
So at the minute, you can be in the UK.
It means that you can be taken to court in the UK.
And this is present at the minute.
You can be taken to court in the UK.
And if they drop it to a low charge, you do not get a jury.
So whilst you hear I've been in prison lots of times, I've never had the opportunity to have a jury, which is 12 members of my peers who decide my fate.
I've been criminally prosecuted so many times by the police, but they always limit it to you go before a judge.
So you do not get a jury.
And that means that they can only give you 12 months in jail or 12 or 24 months, 12 or 24 months.
So it's limited to how long they can give you because you do not get the opportunity to get a jury.
You just go before a magistrate judge.
Now, they're changing that.
They're changing it so you can get four years.
So the Labour government are scrapping jury trials and they're using the reason that the court backlog is so long.
So they're going to scrap away the jury service.
So that the jury service, something so that we will only be able to go then before appointed judges and you can get four years in jail.
Now, all of these things, and anyone, I've been through the court system, Glenn.
So even when you're here on this, so what they'll be able to do with this blasphemy law is you won't even get a jury.
So you won't be able to go before, you'll be able to get up to four years in jail.
And that's what Labour government are currently accelerating their attempt to remove the jury service.
So not only are they bringing in a law that prohibits you from telling the truth, they're also bringing in the, they're taking away your ability to be tried by 12 members of the public.
You'll just be tried by a judge.
And anyone who's watched, I met, obviously, Glenn, my last prison sentence, I got 18 months in jail for making a film called Silence.
That film was 100% factual.
No one has argued with any of the facts I presented in that film or the judge didn't have a problem with the facts I presented in the film, just the fact that I showed the public the film.
And again, if I was able to have a jury to let the jury decide, I believe I'd never have gone to jail once.
But I've never been given the opportunity to have a jury.
So this, when you are the original question you asked is how would this affect me?
It may affect me, I may end up in more court cases.
I guess I will.
But it's not going to affect me telling the truth on these issues.
Because what's got us in this mess, and this is what, and they're doing this in the United States, because when I traveled around the United States, Glenn, I've spoken to people.
People are already self-censoring.
Now, they self-censor out of fear.
They self-censor out of fear of losing their job, fear of being violently attacked.
There's all these different reasons why people were censored.
And it was that fear element in Great Britain that allowed the destruction of our nation, that allowed the rape of a generation of our daughters, that allowed us to get into the position we're in now.
And that's the same without the whole of Europe.
And if they install that fear, which I've been in Democrat cities when I was asking in Washington people's opinions on certain things, and people had opinions but weren't willing to say them.
That same fear that results in that is the reason we're in such a mess.
So I think if we become, if we start now watching our words again, it only leads one way.
Everyone can see what's happening to our country.
Everyone's been able to see it for 30 years.
But I believe we're at a breaking point of that the dam has burst in Britain.
You saw that on September 13th.
We had millions.
The biggest protest the country has ever seen in our history was on September 13th.
The next one is on May 16th.
So they're accelerating these non-jury trials and they're accelerating these laws in order to limit speech.
This is all about limiting speech.
It's not about limiting hate.
We have laws.
We've had laws for decades that we have laws that incitement to violence and incitement to racial hatred.
If you incite physical violence, and if I was to say, right, we need to start killing people and murdering people, or I need to say we go over there and we attack them, then that's against the law.
Fear in the Public00:15:23
You can receive probably 10 years in jail for something like that.
So we have laws.
You're not allowed to say racist words.
We already have all these laws.
What this blasphemy law is just about stopping telling the truth about Islam.
It's all it's about.
It's about stopping the public being made aware of the danger they're in because of the Islamic ideology and the facts that come from that Islamic ideology.
So when I did Restoring Honor, I think it was, on the mall back in 2009, it was in Washington, D.C., and I was terrified because I had no idea if anyone would even show up.
It turned out to be the largest gathering at the Lincoln Memorial since Martin Luther King.
And it was shocking to me.
And it woke some politicians for a little while.
You gather a million people in London, you know, just based on the population difference.
That speaks volumes.
What do you, A, expect to happen, you know, because of this?
And B, are you at all concerned about people showing up because it's dangerous, it's scary, whatever?
It's a multitude of things.
So, what are going to achieve?
What does it do?
We, as I said, what they've managed to do in this country, and I think January 6th was about this as well.
It's about putting fear in the public that they're even allowed to demonstrate and a multitude of reasons that have happened.
And that's what's been going on in Britain.
So, September 13th came after they'd locked us all up.
They locked me up for my film.
Now, when the riots went on in the UK, these were riots that happened after Axel Ruda Cabana, who was of migrant background, went into a children's music class and stabbed three children to death and butchered another seven.
Now, after he'd done that, that day, the police found an al-Qaeda manual under his pillow.
They found voicing in his room.
But within hours, they made statements saying it was nothing to do with terrorism.
And then the newspapers run a picture of him as a choir boy.
And this was what the public were told.
And the public knew there were lies.
So there was outrage at the time about the fact we were being lied to again because we're continually lied to.
There's a terrorist like, and I follow all these terrorist attacks, Glenn, yeah, and they just lie.
So, for example, if you Google now and you go and look at Russell Square attack, look at Russell Square attack, yeah.
And anyone can do this.
Look up Russell Square attack.
You'll see a Muslim went screaming Alo Akbar, and he murdered an American.
I'll give you this example because I'm in America.
And he murdered an American citizen and stabbed about another seven or eight.
Never classed as terrorism.
They just hid it.
They said it was mental health.
So there was another woman beheaded, an old pensioner beheaded in London.
Wasn't classed as terrorism.
They just play it all down.
So it's not terrorism.
So we were told straight away, Axel Rudaquana wasn't terrorism.
Now, at that point, tensions were boiling over over this issue.
People come out to protest in that town, that one individual area where Axel Rudebana had stabbed these children, and someone else turned up of Arab appearance with a weapon.
Now, chaos happened then because it's in a rough British area anyway.
Chaos happened and riots started.
And they started in anger against the police.
And those riots spread.
But as they spread, the police, there were riots about six weeks before this by migrant background.
And the riots went on, and police officers were attacked, buses were burned.
Was over something totally separate up in an area called Leeds.
So the public have seen these two incidents now, Kiosk weaponized the judiciary and he weaponized the police and they imprisoned anyone.
They they just literally grabbed anyone that was on the streets because they because they classed them as riots, even if someone was peaceful.
Now, during these riots, they locked up Lucy Connolly for a tweet.
Lucy Connolly was a mother who wrote a tweet.
They give her 31 months in prison.
She's never been in trouble in her life.
She's a law-abiding citizen.
So is her husband and family.
She had young children.
They locked her up and give her 31 months prison.
They sent her to 31 months for a tweet that she deleted after an hour.
So she put her tweet up, angry about what was happening.
She wrote some hateful words and they and then she deleted after an hour put an apology up they come and dragged her and imprisoned her.
Someone who shared her tweet they imprisoned, imprisoned even though they didn't write the tweet.
Now they also imprisoned a gentleman um, who was a old age pensioner, who they imprisoned him and he died in jail.
So he and he they imprisoned him.
He had a sign against our government reading a bit about about government corruption, but the purpose of all of these imprisonments all of them at that time, and they live streamed it.
So someone would be arrested at a demonstration on the saturday.
By the monday they'd sent them to jail.
Now, anyone who knows the court system in the Uk, that doesn't happen now.
None of the men who were rioting six weeks prior, when we were burning buses and burning police cars from migrant background, had even been arrested.
There was no big appeal, but within a day they had everyone's images from the papers wanted.
On the saturday sunday, they had all their images everywhere.
On the monday, they were kicking off doors live on tv.
They were bringing tv news and dragging out women from their houses who had pushed a bin.
Yeah, this is what they did and they televised it to the British public to let them know.
Basically, get back in your houses and shut up.
Now what had happened is people had started protesting about the migrants in the hotels across the across the Uk at this time and the story that they never tell you is, say, for example, there were protests in Roverham, outside the hotel in Roverham, where they made out that the all the migrants are the victims.
They don't tell you that those migrants had been harassing, sexually harassing, young children in that town.
They don't tell you.
In the town of Hull, when they were protesting at the hotel in Hull.
They don't tell you that a Muslim called Muhammad left the left the hotel and stabbed someone to death shouting free Palestine.
Uh stabbed a British old age pension.
They don't tell you that the same in the city of Tem, in the city of Tamworth, where the local community had gone to the hotel there.
They don't tell you that a Muslim had left that hotel and raped an English woman on her way home.
They don't tell you that 25 men had left hotels and raped young, raped women and children from the hotels.
These are the hotels because and there's a big anger in the Uk because the migrants are being brought in.
It's all planned.
They're being brought in, then they're being distributed around the Uk into our communities where our wives and children are, and then they're raping and attacking and committing acts of terrorism.
So that's what's happening.
That's why there's all this ruining anger in the country and they televised it and they locked up innocent people who had committed no crime.
They give no opportunity for bail, so usually people get bailed, Like we see these migrants who sexually assault children.
We had a big case in another area called Epping where the migrant had been here two weeks.
A schoolgirl was walking to school.
He's jumped on her, sexually assaulted her.
She's a young child.
They give him bail.
But at the time of these protests outside the hotel, which they called riots across the country, they locked up everyone and they weaponized the judiciary, which is what they keep doing against me.
Now, all of that.
Okay, hang on, Wait, wait, wait.
I got to take a one-minute break.
Come back.
We've got about three more minutes left after I come back.
First, let me tell you about pre-born quickly.
When people think about what pre-born does, they often think about, you know, the ultrasounds that make sense.
Giving a woman a chance to see her baby, hear the heartbeat changes absolutely everything.
But it's not the whole story.
Pre-born doesn't just step in with the medical service.
They step in care and compassion and with real commitment to walk alongside the woman facing one of the most difficult decisions of her lives for up to two years after the birth.
That's a big part.
After the ultrasound, women are also offered something the world doesn't give.
Truth, hope, and the love of Christ.
This April, Pre-Born's goal is to have 11,000 gospel conversions in the Pre-Born Network clinics, trusting God to bring all the increase as they remain faithful to speak.
So, can you make it possible?
Will you sponsor an ultrasound?
$28 provides one ultrasound, $140, sponsors five ultrasounds for moms in crisis in every dollar, helps save babies and share the hope of the gospel.

Station ID.
So, Tommy, two minutes.
Go ahead.
Yeah, so all of this is designed to instill fear.
So they thought locking up Lucy Connolly, an average mother, would put fear into the bellies of every British mum.
They thought that what they'd done to Peter Lynch, who was a grandfather who had never committed a crime and he died in jail, they handed all these people, because all of our prisons are like ISIS training camps.
They're run by criminal Islamic gangs, every prison in the UK.
Every prison.
So they handed all these British people over to be violently attacked and terrorized within the prison system.
Now, all of this was designed to install fear in the public, which is why we then, the minute I come out of jail, that's why we called on the next rally straight away as soon as I walked out of jail because I thought we can't let them do this.
Because if they do this, then they'll be able to just continue desecrating our nation while people are too scared to protest.
And we also want to show people that you can protest peacefully.
So that's what we've done with our events.
And the importance of that is it's created a wave.
It's created a wave of patriotism and nationalism that they can't control.
You used to drive from one end of Britain to the other without seeing a British flag.
That's what used to happen.
Over the, I don't know if you watched the campaign Raise the Colours.
Literally, you can't drive down the street now in the UK without seeing the great British flag or an English flag.
There's been a mass campaign which started last year.
That's good to hear.
They're just putting them up on landscape.
That's good.
Putting them up on everything.
So yeah.
The last time I was there, maybe five years ago, all I saw was, you know, pride flags everywhere.
And I wondered where the British flag had gone.
That was five years ago.
I've got to run, Tommy, but best of luck to you.
I will see you in London on May 16th.
That is the site of his next big rally.
You can follow Tommy at urbanscoop.news, urban scoop.news.
You can follow him on X, Tommy Robinson.

But food, water, shelter, those are the priorities every single time, no matter what caused the problem or how it started.
The only reason most of us don't think about them is because most of the time we're not in the middle of a disaster.
They're plentiful.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
Tommy Robinson, every time I talk to him, he tries to get like 15 years worth of information in, you know, in a five-minute conversation.
It's like, dude, we can talk again.
You don't have to explain everything.
We will talk again, I promise you.
But he is so desperate to get his story out because of what's going on and especially not just what's going on in England.
He looks at England and says, America, this is your future soon if you don't wake up.
And that's one of the reasons why I'm going over for his.
To get arrested?
No, no.
Prefer not to get arrested.
Preferred not to get arrested.
Ji-hodded?
Yeah, no, no, prefer not.
I don't prefer any of that.
I just, I'm going to be broadcasting from London that week, and I want to bring on the people who can tell the stories of what is actually happening on the streets of London that you don't know and to tell what is happening.
And then hopefully, I mean, I will be as a witness.
I don't think I'm going to be speaking or anything else, but I'm not sure I want to.
But, you know, I will be there as a witness to this because it's history.
It is huge, huge history.
You are seeing what could possibly be the defining battles now of Western civilization.
And Tommy is playing a big role in that.
What do you think is the thing that keeps us a few years out or going full UK on blasphemy laws here in the U.S.?
We do have the First Amendment, obviously.
Yeah, they don't.
But in just a few years, we could have a Harris administration, a Newsom administration.
They'll find creative ways to get around it.
Yes, they will.
They will.
And that's why I hope we just don't go down that road because everything will change overnight.
If they get in, it is going to be, it's going to be, it's going to be quite interesting to watch what happens to our country because we will go full Europe on the way they're handling all of this.
Because remember, that's the green-red alliance, that they are allianced.
And so they will have to shut people down.
And if you look at these protests, I mean, I see this as great courage, but I bet a lot of people see it as discouragement in some ways.
Oh, yeah, I would be totally demoralized.
I'm on X constantly, and I see the videos of like old men and women and moms who posted something on Facebook or X, and all of a sudden the cops are in their house arresting them.
Regime Dollars Squeezed00:14:44
And, you know, it seems like it's a faraway issue that I don't have to worry about it.
But it also probably quietly sends a signal to normal people who don't like controversy to maybe just hold back just a little bit.
I don't want to be accused of hate speech.
But aren't you amazed?
Think of the population of England.
It is small.
It's a very small country in comparison.
Look at the number of those stories of people who are just like, I don't care.
I don't care.
I'm saying this.
I mean, that is, to me, that's inspirational, that people understand.
Over there, they understand what they're facing.
I don't think we understand it yet.
I think we're just, you know, it's an ocean away and it's not going to happen here.
And, you know, that's one of the reasons why it will happen here if we keep thinking it will never happen here.
It will happen.
It will happen here.
Jason, let me bring you in for a second.
Let me switch to Iran because we're talking now about putting troops on the ground.
I just want to show the most consistent man, I think, ever to run for office.
This is from 1987.
You might have seen this going around.
This is Donald Trump with Barbara Walters in a 2020 interview.
Listen to this, 1987.
Because I'm running for the presidency.
I'm here because I'm personally tired of seeing this great country of ours being ripped off.
But as far as Trump is concerned, our allies are only part of the problem.
The real culprit is Iran.
Why couldn't we go in and take over some of their oil, which is along the sea?
How would you do that?
Would you send in the Marines?
Would you take a chance in a war?
Let them have Iran.
You take their oil.
That's what I. How?
How?
I mean, do we want a war?
What do we take their oil?
You go in.
How do we go in?
You're going to have a war by being weak.
Okay, how do we go in?
What do we?
Excuse me.
You're going to have a war.
And it's going to start in the Middle East.
What if the Soviet Union said, you do this to Iran?
We're going to come in.
I don't believe they'd do it.
The next time Iran attacks this country, go in and grab one of their big oil installations.
And I mean, grab it and keep it and get back your losses because this country has lost plenty because of Iran.
This guy, Jason, do you know anybody?
Go back to tapes of me because you got them.
There they exist somewhere of me in 1987.
I am nothing like I am today.
This guy is exactly the same.
But you couldn't see right behind Barbara Walters, there was a small Jewish man holding up cue cards telling him, get into war with Iran.
I mean, the guy is unbelievably consistent.
He's either the most consistent man ever or he's time traveling.
It's either or.
I haven't really made up my mind yet.
Yeah, and he's also talked very specifically about Carg Island.
So not just seasonal.
He's got into the two.
He talked about that in 82.
Five years before that interview, he's like, you know another thing?
I think we should just send in the Marines and take Cog Island.
Wow.
I mean, he has been thinking about these things for quite some time.
Now, can I get serious about maybe point counterpoint, maybe look a little bit on the side of Barbara Walters?
Is this a good idea?
How do we send in ground troops?
What are we doing?
Yeah, and it's very, that's a debate going on right now.
The Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, was talking today, and he was asked specifically about the option of ground troops.
Now we have around 3,000 Marines that could respond.
We also have members of, I think, the 82nd Airborne that are either there now or will be soon to respond as well.
So they have the firepower and the manpower that they need to if they wanted to do something.
The question is what?
And it's very, people are passionate on the opposite end of that, understandably, because of what's happened in the region before about the idea of sending ground troops.
My question now is: what would that actually look like?
It sounds like from the way the president has spoken in the past and the way he's speaking now, that it would be in a much more limited fashion.
The Iran war is not the Iraq war.
It's not the Afghanistan war.
Anyone trying to draw ties between any of them is not being honest with people as they're talking through the options.
Did you see Frank McKenzie, former retired General Frank McKenzie, he came out on Face the Nation this weekend.
He was serving under Trump in the first term and then under Biden.
And he said, this thing, I'm telling you, it's almost over.
It's going to be total victory.
That's the first time I've heard somebody outside of the administration not just tearing this thing down.
Do you know about him or what he said?
And do you believe it?
Yeah, and he pointed out that they're actually a lot further along in this plan.
And this war plan has been, it's not new.
They've been working on that for a long time now.
And where they are now is pretty, it's historic.
What they've actually done, and there's been a lot of blackpilling about it.
I've even seen some outlets say how it's going bad.
In what world?
They've taken out not only the main regime, but multiple regimes underneath them, almost completely cleared all of their objectives that they tried to do.
There's no way that this has not been successful.
Now, the only thing that you can look at now is at the end point.
Will it be a successful and a complete undoing of the system of government?
Will the demonstrators that were around before, will they come back out and take the government?
That is still up in the air.
And how long it will take the strengths to be used?
I don't think he wants that.
I think he wants people to be more free.
He would love them to be free, but he does not want, he doesn't want ground fight.
He doesn't want there to be guerrilla warfare when we leave.
He wants there to be stability in the region.
Guarantee it.
Did you see that also the allies are now not only making the case that we need to stay in, but now he's saying to them, okay, Saudi Arabia, you want us to stay in?
Well, pony up.
You should pay for this.
You see that?
Yeah.
The Gulf Arab Nations wrote another strongly worded letter, Glenn.
I mean, the words are strong.
Yeah.
Wow.
And it was a letter?
Yeah, it was a letter.
You combine those two and you've got the UN.
Put a little bit more red tape on it and you've got the UN.
I think it's great that the Gulf Arab Nations are finally speaking out so strongly.
I would love it if they actually put their hardware where their mouths are and eventually we can full, not, you know, eventually we can disengage from the region because they finally decide to fight for themselves and to manage their own backyard.
That would be amazing, but I still only see strongly worth that.
Isn't the UAE, the Ministry of Defense, came out and said, we're prepared.
They keep striking us.
We are going after them.
I mean, hold me back.
Hold me back.
That sounds like the loud guy in the bar that waits for all of his friends to hold him back so he doesn't actually have to do anything.
That's what I see the most of the time with them.
Put your money where your mouth is.
That way, like I said, the framework is there.
The Abraham Accords framework is there.
Build that stronger.
Have that govern the region.
That is your model going forward.
That way we don't have to do any of this stuff anymore.
We can take a step back.
I think that's what he's going for.
I think that's what he's going for.
I think he is.
He is going to come to a place.
If indeed this is successful, he is going to come to a place where he's going to be like, guys, it's on you now.
We spent enough.
You guys can pay us back for some of these things, but we've spent enough.
I'll bet you he doesn't say in the end, pay us back.
I bet you he says, we're just going to seize some of this oil.
Exactly what he said in 1987.
We're just taking some of this oil.
That's ours now as payback for what we've just done.
But now it's on your hands.
Glenn, at the end of this administration, after all this foreign policy work is done and we can say, look, we did this and this and this, so we can disengage from this area, disengage from Europe.
Now whatever alliance they have, whether it's NATO, whatever, it takes more of a responsibility and they commit to fighting for themselves.
That way, at the end of all this, we can take a step back and we can not spend as much money, not spend as much hardware, all that stuff.
At the end of all of this, we can say that.
This would be one of the most victorious foreign policy agendas in the history of the United States.
It really would be.
And everything corrected after World War II.
And still capped, success, still capped because everybody knows he only has three years left.
Two and a half years left.
He's got that.
They have no idea what's going to happen in the last two years.
They have no idea what's going to happen after he leaves office.
If you get Rubio or DeSantis or somebody who's going to be strong again, JD Vance, somebody who's going to be strong and follow these policies, that's when you will actually see the world change because they'll know, oh, crap, we've got another four to possibly eight years of this.
They're not screwing around.
Right now, how many countries are just trying to lay low, do exactly what they have to to get along, get out of the line of fire, because hopefully America is going to go back to the way it was under Joe Biden.
You watch.
It will be a master stroke if he can get it all done, but it can be quickly undone with the wrong election.
If we have somebody that is following this kind of doctrine, that's when you'll really see the world change.
And it won't be that following president's credit.
It will actually be Donald Trump's credit.
All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor.
Sometimes the answer to your problem that you're dealing with is sitting right in front of you.
You just didn't recognize it at first.
If you've been living with pain for a long time, you know how that happens.
After a while, you start looking for solutions and you start adjusting to the problems because the solutions you find aren't working.
I can tell you, it doesn't take long to get there from personal experience.
I've been there, but it doesn't have to be that way.
Relief Factor is a daily drug-free supplement that was designed to help reduce or eliminate pain by targeting your inflammation, which is often the root cause of what you're feeling.
And for a lot of people, that's the thing that's been there all along and you haven't really taken any steps to really reduce that.
Over a million people have tried Relief Factor.
Two-thirds of them have gone on to take more.
And if you've been listening to me talk about Relief Factor for a while, maybe today is the day.
If you're already taking it, you're already getting the enhanced formula designed to work even smarter with your body.
So start the three-week quick start.
It's 1995 at relieffactor.com.
Call 800, the number four relief, 8004 relief, relieffactor.com.
Your feed full of noise.
Your town's full of folks who'd help you move a fridge.
Don't lose touch.
Glenn Beck will be back after this.
So, Jason, I want to bring you in on this one because I'm just wondering if this is real or if this is somebody who's like, no, no, really, I'm.
No, I'm nothing like those guys.
Fidel Castro's grandson, which I don't know what that makes him in the family tree to Justin Trudeau, but the grandson of Fidel Castro has said he's a capitalist.
This is an interview, of course, on CNN from Cuba.
Listen.
We actually would welcome, he says, speaking for himself, deal with Donald Trump.
I don't like his threats, is what he told me.
But if he opens up the island, if he improves the economy here, then it could all work out for the best.
And so let's just listen to this conversation, which was more than a little surprising.
What would your grandfather, Fidel Castro, say that you're more capitalist than communist?
My grandfather was a person who had his principles like everyone else, but he also respected others' opinions.
That's my way of thinking.
But all the capitalists have left Cuba.
There are many people in Cuba that think in a capitalistic way.
There are many people here who want to have capitalism with sovereignty.
Okay, so he's not exactly, am I reading this right?
He's not exactly.
He's like a communist in China.
We love capitalism.
We also want to have our own sovereignty.
And if we feel we need to torture some people and steal their organs, we will.
I mean, I'm getting that kind of vibe.
I'm getting the vibe that he wishes that he still had grandpa's money.
I've been reading that we're sort of squeezing the country and they may not have as many regime dollars as they used to.
No.
You think they've absconded someplace?
Perhaps.
Perhaps, maybe.
Oh, that's interesting.
Jason?
I couldn't get over the fact that he didn't get the memo that you look kind of like an idiot when you do an interview with sunglasses on.
I can't get much past that.
I think it's lucky.
He's the family beard.
Neither does Trudeau.
He couldn't go full red camie.
Couldn't go full red copie.
Just half red copy.
I also think he's like sort of like the ambassador for the regime in a way that's like, hey, look at us.
We're like capitalist light.
Don't send my family to prison in the States.
Don't put me in that jumpsuit.
Yeah.
I'm wondering how the people in Florida will feel about the grandson of Fidel Castro.
Yeah, I've got connected family that are from Cuba and they are heavily anti-Castro, the regime.
Of course, there are people all in.
I mean, if you grew up on this regime under communism, you have a connection to it.
You hate communism.
Kind of an interesting juxtaposition to some of the kids running around in No Kings protests right now, huh?
You know, I thought that was going to go differently because I lived in New Haven, Connecticut for a while.
And when you started talking about I have connected family, doesn't mean the same thing.
Patriot Mobile Choice00:04:13
know what i'm saying i want you to think about something for just a minute something that most people don't think about We talk about supply chains when it comes to gas or groceries, but what about medicine?
A huge percentage of medications that people rely on every day are made all overseas, and they come through some very narrow, unstable parts of the world just to get here.
And if anything disrupts that, it doesn't take long for the supply chain here to get thrown for a loop.
That's the part that gets my attention because what do you do for medication?
You have to have.
Jace Medical can get prescription medications, antibiotics, blood pressure meds, diabetes treatments, all of it delivered to your door ahead of time so you're not waiting and hoping when everybody else is scrambling.
Because when it comes to something you depend on every day, you don't want to be the last in line.
You want to be the person who saw it coming and made a decision before it became a problem.
I want you to go to Jace, J-A-S-E.com.

You get a discount on your order.
promo code Beck at Jace.com.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
There is a ton to get to today, yet we're still going to talk to you a little bit about what's happening with Congress because it's a clown show.
We also want to talk to you about people being killed by illegal aliens.
How do we deal with that?
That's coming up in about a half an hour.
And something tomorrow remarkable is happening that not a lot of people are even talking about and should.
We'll talk about that coming up in just a second.
First, Patriot Mobile, who do you do business with matters?
I mean, and it says more about you than most people realize because every decision, every small everyday decision that you make every day, things that you don't think about really at all, ends up supporting something.
Sometimes that something is good and sometimes it's not.
And that's why the idea of you building a parallel economy with me and every other American is so important.
More and more people are starting to pay attention where their money goes and what it's actually funding.
And so when it comes to your mobile carrier, it is fair.
You know, is this the right company for you?
What are you helping build?
With one you've already have, I mean, do you know what they stand for?
Patriot Mobile gives you another option.
They offer reliable coverage on all three major networks.
So you're on the same network, okay?
But a lower cost.
And they're clear about supporting causes that align with your values.
So it's not just a bill that you're paying.
You're making a choice that reflects what you believe.

So I was thinking about America and what we really are because, you know, we honestly, I was watching F1 and I saw the big, you know, race in Dubai.
And I thought, look at Dubai.
Look at the way they're building things.
Look at the way China is building things.
These new nations are building all these amazing things.
And we used to be in that position.
We're not anymore.
Not Blindly to Moon00:15:18
And I thought, what are we now?
You know, there was a time when the very edge of the world was not a metaphor.
It was a belief.
It was conviction.
It was a line on the map where reason stopped and terror began.
Just beyond that line, God only knows, sea monsters, darkness, cliffs, unknown.
But there were people in the West that went anyway.
You know, we can argue, and we do, about who first reached the shores here, Christopher Columbus, Leif Erickson, you know, whoever, you know, the reindeer from Frozen, I don't know if he was, whoever the textbooks say discovered America the first time for the West.
But at some moment in history, a human being stood at the edge of certainty and looked directly at the abyss and said, yeah, I'm going to go.
And that is our story.
That's the story of Western civilization, but it is uniquely American.
As I was driving in this morning, there was this big, beautiful moon.
And I looked at it.
And as I was thinking, as I was driving in, what was important enough to tell you today, I saw that moon just hanging there in the sky.
And it was a reminder of all of the people that have looked at that moon prior to 1968, 1969, as we went to the moon.
All of the people that refused to accept limits.
And is that still alive?
It is.
As I looked at that moon again today, I thought of the four people that are readying themselves that they looked up at that moon last night or this morning and they saw it differently because they're about to be there.
Artemis II.
Artemis II, think of the astronauts, not the famous ones of the past, but the ones we don't even know their names.
They leave tomorrow to go deeper into space than any human has ever gone before.
And this time we go not to prove that we can reach the heavens or reach the moon, but to begin to prove that we can actually live in space.
Apollo was really the question and Artemis is the answer.
And the names are important because it comes from Greek mythology.
And Artemis was the twin sister of Apollo.
He was the sun.
He was bright and bold and everybody saw Apollo.
She was the moon.
She was steady, watchful, and enduring.
So Apollo was meant to blaze the path that everybody saw.
And Artemis is the one that claims the ground and is immovable.
Because that's where we are now.
Years ago, we sent men like John Glenn and Neil Armstrong into the unknown.
As Kennedy said, not because it was easy, but I think not even because it was hard.
We sent them there because many thought it was absolutely impossible.
And Americans needed to know if impossible meant something that has never existed before.
This is going to be a permanent gateway.
It's a spaceport, a staging ground that first will be on the planet and then eventually will orbit around the moon that turns exploration into presence, presence into expansion.
We are going to live on the moon and then we are moving to other planets.
And for the first time in human history, we're not going to be just visiting another world.
We're preparing to stay there.
And that changes absolutely everything.
You know, America talks about leadership and who leads in chips and who leads in the markets and who leads in military power, blah, blah, blah.
And all those things matter.
But they are not the measure of a civilization.
This is.
Exploration is.
America leads the world in the one thing that has always defined the future and always defined us, the willingness to go first into the unknown.
Why did Columbus come here?
It wasn't just for exploration.
It was for gold.
Because that's the only way you could get the kings to do it, for gold.
And they believed that it would be waiting for them.
There would be cities made of gold glittering just beyond the horizon.
But it wasn't.
At least not in the way they had imagined it.
What they found instead, years and centuries later, we now know was far more valuable.
New worlds, new ideas, new possibilities.
What happened on this continent reshaped humanity itself because somebody got onto a boat.
This time, we're not going blindly to the moon.
We have data.
We have the maps.
We have a better understanding of what waits for us.
We know the resources at the lunar caps.
We know we can make fuel.
We have pathways now to Mars and beyond.
That's why we're going.
But I think what we'll actually find will be much, much bigger than what we're currently looking for.
The greatest discovery is never gold.
Never has been.
It's never been the land.
It's been the expansion of the human mind and the human experience.
And that's where we excel over all other countries.
That honestly is what makes us great.
Our boldness, our daring, our willing to expand the limits, are willing to go, you know, don't tell me I can't do that because I think we can.
When a civilization decides the horizon is not the boundary, but that's the beginning, that's when everything changes.
That's when we change the world over and over and over again.
And that's why tomorrow matters.
Tomorrow matters not just for science, not for national pride or technology, but because something happens to a people when they stop exploring.
When you stop exploring, you shrink.
When you stop exploring, you turn inward.
You begin to argue over smaller and smaller things because people have forgotten how big the world really is.
We, you know, we argue over taxes and money as if it's a finite pool.
It's not.
Success and money and all of this is like taking a dump truck and backing it up to the ocean and filling it up with water.
There's more water in there.
There's plenty of water for everybody.
Expanding our understanding.
Stop fighting over the small things.
Artemis is a chance to reverse all of that.
It reminds us that we're not just citizens of a nation.
We are participants in something that is much, much larger.
What we begin today, think of this.
If man survives, what we begin today in five, six, ten centuries from now will be remembered on some distant planet that none of us have ever heard of.
Because what we start tomorrow will put us out into space in ways none of us can imagine.
Tomorrow, for the first time in all of history, we start to begin to become what we've always been destined to be.
Humans who will soon, over time, be known as earthlings.
Because tomorrow, four people get into a impossibly small capsule and put unbelievable amounts of explosive power behind them.
and they become spacemen the moon been there done that This isn't about reaching the moon.
This is about changing everything.
This is about rediscovering the part of ourselves that I miss most of all.
What I mourn when I think about the loss of America is not our cars or our success or our houses or anything else.
I mourn that unique American spirit that says, why not?
Who says we can't?
Let's do it.
Tomorrow we begin to rediscover that part of ourselves that looks at the impossible and refuses to believe it.
And we can talk about how much money it's going to cost and how much this and what that and how much money we're going to make if this works out, blah, But I think looking at the impossible and refusing to believe it is going to be the most important thing we will find out there.

10 seconds station ID Ricky who's watching the insider boards.
Yes, there's a couple of great questions from our Torch Insiders.
One from Loretta.
Why have we waited this long to go to the moon again?
What were we going to do up there?
Go play more golf?
I mean, there are scientific things that we could do in the moon, but why do it on the moon?
You could do it in space.
The reason why we're going to the moon is now we know what's on the moon.
We know that we can make fuel on the moon.
We now have the rockets and the technology to build big enough spaceships and transport enough stuff to the moon to begin to build a base station.
You're not going to be able to see it with the naked eye unless we put Trump on the side of it, which might be a good idea, just light up Trump at the bottom of the moon.
But we're going to build a space station there on the moon and eventually then from there start to build spaceships.
We're going to make our own fuel and be able to build rockets, enormous rockets you wouldn't be able to get out of Earth's atmosphere to go to Mars.
The missions were different.
Back then, we were trying to beat the communists.
And we were also trying just to see, can we get there?
Yeah, it was a race back then.
And it's kind of a race right now.
Everybody knows that they want to do this.
China is, I've had some people that have talked to me that know about spaces say that China is really close to beating us in space and in orbit around that.
We are.
We are now.
We're going to need space force soon, but you know, China is is doing great things.
We need to have the, the polar region, because that is where we can get water and all of the things to make fuel to be able to get us to the outer planets, which is going to change everything economically.
This will be a space-based economy in 20 years.
This will change everything on earth.
Between this and AI, everything changes.
Okay, I have another question from an insider, but first I want to go back to space force.
Does this mean we're going to need those laser guns like we saw in Star Trek and Star Wars?
We, of course.
I think we already have them sure, why not okay?
Uh, Jenny The Great, aren't there better things to spend money on?
Homelessness, national debt, drug war environment, helping save lives?
Yeah, here's the great thing, we're not just spending.
It's not NASA, like you understand.
NASA now, a lot of this money, a lot of this is coming from private corporations.
You know, why do you think?
Why do you, why do you think Spacex is there?
Why do you think you know BLUE Origin is there?
They're all involved in this now.
So it's not all coming from us.
And and yes um, this one is not where.
Last time we spent all this money.
We're like yeah, but we got tang and a microwave out of it.
This one, the space-based economy, is game-changing.
If the United States owns that part of the moon and and can actually do these things, the space-based economy changes us forever.
It's it's, it's.
It's like what Detroit did to the United States Of America, you know, back in the 1930s, 40s and 50s.
It's, it's bigger than that.
It's bigger than that.
I have another one from autumn 1544.
God Wants Us Explore00:02:50
this one i wonder how you're going to answer this does going to the moon glorify god yes because man look at man god created man And we are to push ourselves to the absolute limits to see what man is capable of.
Absolutely, it glorifies God.
If we choose to do that, you know, if we are like, look what man can do all by himself and man doesn't need God, then, you know, no.
But remember, I mean, look what our astronauts did.
How many of our astronauts, some of them didn't even believe in God until they got up on the moon and then they were like, there has got to be God.
So it just with everything, what we choose to do with it.
To me, I know we don't accomplish great things.
We can't be who we were born to be without God.
And I know that to be true.
And I know that God wants us to explore.
He wants us to turn over every rock, every stone, look up into the heavens and say, why, why, why?
We'll never understand all of it.
But, you know, God tells us, come to me as a child.
To me, that is come to me without arrogance.
Children, the one thing that children always do that drives you nuts, but it's their charm is they are always asking why.
Why?
Why is it that way?
Why is the sky blue?
Why is this work?
And I think that's what God wants.
He wants us to be humble and always asking why.
If this isn't the ultimate of asking why, how?
What are we here for?
How important is the earth?
Can we live other places?
Can we, is there anything outside of this district of space that we could ever reach?
My gosh, think of the possibilities.
Think of, I mean, I'm a big fan of Star Trek.
And, you know, when we all go socialist Marxist and then we adopt the, you know, the Federation plans, then it'll be super great and there'll be no money or problems.
But think of the exploration there.
That's within our grasp.
Not in my lifetime, but that is within our grasp.
Can you imagine that?
It's all here.
We're living in unequaled times, both good and bad.
Let's take tomorrow as they launch that thing and just marvel at what God is able to do with mankind.
All right.
Grief and Leadership Failure00:14:51
More in a second.
I'm going to take you up just outside of Chicago and meet an angel dad next.
All right, Simply Safe.
Most criminals are, I mean, really dumb.
I mean, like, you know, that's why they ran for Congress dumb.
You know what I mean?
But even a dumb criminal tends to know better than to mess, you know, with a, you know, put a sign, you know, up in the yard and mess with that one that has a sign that says protected by SimplySafe.
You don't go into that house.
You know, it's not a mystery anymore.
You know, it's not a guess.
Maybe it's like, well, I don't know.
Is that going to be easy to be breaking into?
No, it's pretty clear right now.
There are cameras, sensors, 24-hour monitoring, ready to respond if something happens.
These guys can even talk.
You cross the fence or the property line.
They can spot you and then they can talk to you.
Like, what are you doing in the yard?
You're not supposed to be here.
I mean, it's that kind of security.
You know, but a lot of these criminals, I mean, if they don't break into your house, they're going to have to, you know, they'll be out of work or I don't know.
They'll have to run for Congress.
And so SimplySafe is here to make that happen for them.

So we all are so frustrated because we don't know how to stop our government from just letting these criminals out on the streets again and again and again and again and again.
And they're.
you know, they're not American citizens.
And even if they were, I wouldn't want them out on the streets, would you?
And it seems like the whole world has gone upside down where all of the compassion is for the illegals.
And there's no compassion for anybody who has been killed or their families.
If we want that to change, I think we need to start telling and sharing the stories of these families and these people.
So I wanted to start with one from Chicago because we know what happened in Chicago a couple of weeks ago.
Well, it has happened before.
And so I flew up to Chicago on Friday, and I'm posting this now at the front page of Glennbeck.com.
And I want you to share it with as many people as you can.
And we'll tweet it out.
We'll put it on Instagram.
But I want you to find it and share it and share it with every member of Congress.
This is a story about a young girl named Katie.
Most death is tragic.
But there's something about a life lost too soon and could have been prevented that makes it much sadder, much more infuriating.
18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, she was the latest American to be killed at the hands of an illegal immigrant in Chicago.
She and her friends left their Loyola dorm one Friday night to take pictures of the Chicago skyline along Lake Michigan.
It was just innocent fun.
She and her group of friends stumbled upon an illegal immigrant near the pier.
She was randomly and egregiously shot and killed.
As a mom, I'm angry.
I'm like completely heartbroken.
And we are going to fight for justice first we children.
And we're going to fight for change.
Her family now faces an unexplainable pain that's going to last the rest of their lives, every day, and it will never fully go away.
It's the same pain that Lake and Riley's family experiences.
Okay, let's just put it on now.
Come on.
This is the first instance that.
And the family of teens Hallie Helgeson and Brady Heiling, killed by an illegal immigrant driving.
The family of cancer survivor and Air Force veteran Richard Williams, who died after being pushed onto subway tracks by an illegal migrant.
And all these other victims.
When will it stop?
Joe Abraham knows this pain all too well.
I flew to Illinois on Friday to meet with him and learn about what happened to his beautiful 20-year-old daughter, Katie.
It happened last year.
So first things first, tell me about Katie.
So Katie was my youngest.
She was 20 years old.
She loved the water.
She swam and played water polo competitively, was really good at it.
She was this personality, so big and engaging.
Her wit, her sense of humor, like nothing got by her.
It was so incredible how even as a young child, she was able to do that, read a room, understand what the conversation, where it was going, and then just fit right in.
Her personality has absolutely been missed in our family.
That's the level one trauma center.
That's right.
That's where she died.
Right in this corner.
She got struck.
She was going this way.
She was in the middle in the middle lane, coming this way, going back to the campus.
After they struck, the car spun, and this corner here is where she took her last breaths.
Right here by the emergency.
Right here.
The car spun and wound up right there by the emergency.
So her, so Katie unfortunately died on the scene.
Her last breaths were literally here.
Her friend died in the hospital the next day.
His car wound up spinning there and then he took off running that way.
So he didn't stick around.
He did not call 911, didn't try to figure out what would happen to the girls, and didn't stick around for first responders to help them understand and maybe help something.
Now, when the first responders arrived, it was fairly quick because it's in this area, but literally they had to pry that car open to pull her dead body out of it.
It's so, Glenn, it's so painful for me as a father to know that this is where she took her last breaths.
I wasn't there with her.
I would have trayed places in a heartbeat.
I would right now give everything I have and the rest of my days just for one more hour with her.
That's how much I've missed her.
Katie would have turned 22 just this last weekend.
When Sheridan Gorman was killed earlier this month, Illinois politicians doubled down on their protection of migrants.
This tragedy is not going to deter us from our work.
In fact, it's going to challenge us all to double down on our efforts to ensure that we are protecting every single individual across neighborhoods.
The same thing happened to Joe.
His daughter's name seemed to never even be on their radar.
This is 14 months.
14 months that I don't have my daughter.
Not one Illinois leader has even looked my direction.
I was in Congress Wednesday.
Senator, my senator, Dick Durbin, wouldn't even look at me.
But he's talking about the situation in Minnesota.
But the lives they're hurting in the process goes far beyond those killed.
The ripple effects are massive.
They're destructive.
And they could have been prevented all along.
I mean, talk about a kick to the chest, a gut-wrenching moment, but we can't like process this right away because our daughter who's in college and Katie were so close.
The surviving daughter is already texting because those two are so close that minute by minute, she's already texting us.
Where's Katie?
Why is her phone in a police station?
I'm getting really worried.
So now we're thinking, oh no, she's five and a half hours away.
This is January.
We have to get into our car in a snowstorm and drive to college.
What haunts me to this day, as we're driving up there and she's texting us and worried and calling, I'm hearing she's dead.
She's in trouble.
When we opened the door of her apartment, her reaction haunts me to watch her daughter, watch her daughter react that way to her sibling, the love she had for Katie and hers.
So we held her.
Tribe, how do you comfort your daughter?
So we tried to comfort her.
Her mom stayed with her, and then we have another sibling in Chicago.
So I drove back down the other five and a half hours, the longest day of my life.
That's your really personal test.
Sure, yeah.
Yeah.
I can't imagine losing my child.
No, don't even try to.
Don't even try to think about that.
It can't.
You can't.
I thought about it when I had all three, and now that it's happened to me, there's nothing.
Do you want to know how the first, and I kind of feel like, so here's a couple things.
One is your mind plays these tricks on you.
You go to sleep.
You have these vivid dreams of her.
Like I'm sitting here talking to you.
This is how vivid it was, these dreams.
And then you wake up and you say, oh, she's still alive.
She's there.
I just saw her.
I touched her.
And then you start that pain all over again when you wake up in the morning.
So I was having these dreams.
So I was getting very, so there were days I would not want to go to sleep.
I would stay like two, three days and not sleep because I don't want to go through that pain.
But then I would have these feelings like, I want to see her again.
I want to see my girl again.
And I would just do nothing but sleep so I could see her.
End of May, I don't remember, it kills me, I don't remember this exact date, but it was the end of May right before the June congressional hearings.
She came to me as vivid as you and I are standing here.
We're both crying.
She hugs me, she kisses me, and she says, I'm okay.
And I've never seen her since.
And now, thanks to the destructive and power-hungry politicians throughout the U.S., Joe cannot simply grieve.
His uphill battle is so much more complicated than that.
If Pritzker or any of them would have come up to you early on or even at that meeting and sincerely said, I am so sorry.
And just reached out and showed basic human compassion, would it have changed your course?
Yes, 100%.
It would have changed my course because right now I left there saying the way they disrespected her, I couldn't swallow that.
I can't do it.
But if he would have at least said something like this, he fell through the cracks.
We have a good process.
Hang with us.
She didn't die for no reason.
We're going a correct course.
We're going to fix those gaps that he slipped through.
And I'm responsible as governor to make sure that happens.
Just something, right?
And then I could have kind of went off on my grief and lived the rest of my days, you know, without my youngest daughter, but grieving, but not having to, you know, constantly talk about the fact that our leadership here in Illinois, you know, couldn't care less.
Look at Jan Tchaikowski, who's my congresswoman.
She must have walked by me five or six times in that hearing, didn't look at me once.
You know, the Chewy Garcias of the world, all these Democratic Illinois politicians, not one of them stopped, to your point, to show any decent humanity.
Dick Durbin didn't even look at me.
I'm like, I'm even thinking this through.
They don't care.
They want this to go away.
So that's when I decided, and I told Katie in the room that I constructed for her, beautiful room, and I was sitting there with her, and I promised her I won't let him erase you.
So what's next?
Well, Katie wasn't the last victim of illegal immigration.
Sheridan won't be either.
So we don't let their stories die.
Their names go unspoken.
We continue to fight for their families and for dads like Joe who are desperate to make sure that despite what the politicians may want, their little girls' lives don't end for nothing.
It was a difficult afternoon, Friday.
I flew up to Chicago and I met with Joe and such a good, normal guy going through an impossible scenario.
And we met there on the corner where his daughter had died.
And we talked about how, why, why is this happening?
He said, because they just need voters.
They just need voters.
They need bodies.
They need money.
And it was interesting that while he has the same view on illegals that I do, he also felt real compassion for the guy who had hit his daughter.
It was really fascinating.
He was like, they just dumped him.
They didn't care.
If they had compassion, they say they have compassion for these people, but they don't because they're just here.
Why Voters Are Needed00:02:35
This guy was really, really sick, didn't speak any kind of language that anybody really understands.
He was from a mountainous region.
It was a very obscure language.
He was not getting any hospital care, nothing.
And I don't want, I'm not saying that that's what we're here for.
But if you are making the case that you care about them, why would you just dump this guy off?
Why would you not treat him for this deadly disease that he had?
Why would you just let him in with a deadly disease?
How is that compassionate?
They didn't care.
They don't care.
And it's got to stop.
We'll tweet that out here in an hour or so at Glennbeck.com.
All right.
Let me tell you about American financing.
You know, I think we think an awful lot alike.
You always taken your financial house seriously.
You've been disciplined.
You saved where you could.
You cut costs where it made sense.
You tried to build something stable for your future without losing, you know, what matters.
Don't lose sight of that.
Every time I brought up taking that next step, reaching out to American Financing, you've probably had the same thought in the back of your mind.
Yeah, yeah, I've been meaning to, but I don't know.
I don't want to take on, you know, I don't want to change my loan.
And, you know, I want to do it if it's the right thing to do.
Well, it doesn't cost you anything to have the conversation, to look at your options and to see if there's a better way to structure your debt, lower your interest, and reduce monthly payments.
And sometimes that's all it takes.
And you don't have to take it.
You don't have to get rid of your really low mortgage rate to put your house in financial order.
Don't mess with that.
And they can show you how to do that.

Is Buck Sexton roaming the hallways here?
I hear you.
He's such a stalker.
Buck Sexton Roaming Hallways00:01:37
He really is.
Buck Sexton heard on the Premiere Radio Network after this broadcast.
Let's see.
There's a couple of things.
didn't get to the fang fang story uh and uh swalwell just he doesn't want um jason chime in on this one Swalwell just does not want the FBI to release any of the things where they found him completely innocent of anything weird going on with Fang Fang, the Chinese spy.
Why wouldn't you want it released then?
If it clears you of everything, why wouldn't you want it?
I mean, I would.
I would want everything out, right?
Yeah.
What kind of details could he be worried about while he's running for governor in California?
I can't imagine.
Like you said, everything has been cleared of any wrongdoing.
So why would you not want it?
Like, I just, I can't think off the top of my head, Glenn.
What could it be possibly?
I don't know.
I don't know.
They have now sent a cease to desist letter to Kash Patel and the FBI saying he definitely will not do this.
Yeah, well, let's see if they pay attention to that.
I have a feeling they won't.
Also, they're on an Easter egg hunt.
So, you know, Congress can't come back.
You know, the Senate can't come back.
Although the White House is like, can you come back after Easter?
After Easter, and can you come back?
Get your ass back in the seat today.
Get on a plane.
You want to go have Easter?
Go leave on Friday night or Saturday.
Come back here, back here Monday.
But I want you in that seat right now.
I don't know why we're not more clear on that with Congress.
