=== Fear, Jail, and Limited Speech (15:15) ===

[00:00:00]  I have worn about Alexander Dugan for a very long time.
[00:00:03]  And after what he posted yesterday, it explains a lot to me and possibly to you why some of our favorite podcasters seem very off lately.
[00:00:14]  Also, Tommy Robinson and the English government.
[00:00:17]  What is happening over there and is it coming over here?
[00:00:21]  And why after all of this time are we going back to the moon?
[00:00:25]  Artemis launches tomorrow.
[00:00:28]  All that and so much more on today's podcast.
[00:00:41]  You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
[00:00:46]  How are you, Glenn?
[00:00:48]  I am great.
[00:00:49]  Are you still in America or are you back in England?
[00:00:52]  I'm still here, mate.
[00:00:53]  I'm still here.
[00:00:54]  Still in America.
[00:00:55]  Good.
[00:00:55]  Still free.
[00:00:57]  Thank you for everything that you're doing.
[00:00:59]  I've been watching you online and you're absolutely fearless.
[00:01:03]  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.
[00:01:14]  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?
[00:01:25]  Well, this is their problem.
[00:01:27]  Their problem always has been that I always speak facts.
[00:01:29]  So they've never been able to arrest me, imprison me on any of those issues because I've never been arrested.
[00:01:36]  People always had the accusations that I incite hate.
[00:01:40]  But we have strict laws against incitement to hatred, which I never do.
[00:01:45]  So everything I speak is facts.
[00:01:47]  So they've never been able to come criminally and prosecute us because I'm merely speaking facts and truth.
[00:01:54]  And that's what this law they're now bringing in is about.
[00:01:57]  They don't want the public to be aware of facts or truth.
[00:02:00]  If you speak the truth about Islam, they want to limit what you can say.
[00:02:04]  And that's now what their new law intends to do.
[00:02:08]  So how you have this huge rally that is coming up in just a few weeks.
[00:02:14]  And by the way, taking you up on your invitation, I want to be there and I'm going to be there.
[00:02:21]  Brilliant, Glenn.
[00:02:21]  I'm excited to see what you're doing and putting together.
[00:02:25]  But how is this not just a giant trap for blasphemy laws?
[00:02:31]  Because you're clearly going to be saying facts about what Islamists are doing.
[00:02:38]  Yeah, this law won't change anything I say.
[00:02:41]  So if I'm honest, I'm just, I will continue.
[00:02:45]  I won't limit my speech if I'm telling the truth.
[00:02:48]  If that means I'll end up in prosecutions, it means I'll end up in prosecution.
[00:02:52]  Sometimes I think that that's what's needed.
[00:02:55]  JK Rowling, they brought in a law.
[00:02:58]  She breached a Scottish law.
[00:03:00]  I can't remember it.
[00:03:01]  To do with transgenderism.
[00:03:02]  So the Scottish government brought in some law to do with transgenderism.
[00:03:06]  J.K. Rowland, if I remember rightly, breached it straight away.
[00:03:10]  Breached it straight away.
[00:03:11]  They never criminally prosecuted her.
[00:03:13]  But then they go after the small fish.
[00:03:16]  They still use the law to go after certain people.
[00:03:21]  Most of these laws are about installing fear.
[00:03:23]  And I don't know if you've seen what they've done now where they've removed what the Labour government intend to remove the jury service.
[00:03:29]  So at the minute, you can be in the UK.
[00:03:33]  It means that you can be taken to court in the UK.
[00:03:36]  And this is present at the minute.
[00:03:38]  You can be taken to court in the UK.
[00:03:40]  And if they drop it to a low charge, you do not get a jury.
[00:03:43]  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.
[00:03:51]  I've been criminally prosecuted so many times by the police, but they always limit it to you go before a judge.
[00:03:58]  So you do not get a jury.
[00:03:59]  And that means that they can only give you 12 months in jail or 12 or 24 months, 12 or 24 months.
[00:04:06]  So it's limited to how long they can give you because you do not get the opportunity to get a jury.
[00:04:11]  You just go before a magistrate judge.
[00:04:14]  Now, they're changing that.
[00:04:15]  They're changing it so you can get four years.
[00:04:17]  So the Labour government are scrapping jury trials and they're using the reason that the court backlog is so long.
[00:04:25]  So they're going to scrap away the jury service.
[00:04:28]  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.
[00:04:35]  Now, all of these things, and anyone, I've been through the court system, Glenn.
[00:04:40]  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.
[00:04:46]  So you won't be able to go before, you'll be able to get up to four years in jail.
[00:04:50]  And that's what Labour government are currently accelerating their attempt to remove the jury service.
[00:04:58]  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.
[00:05:08]  You'll just be tried by a judge.
[00:05:10]  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.
[00:05:17]  That film was 100% factual.
[00:05:19]  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.
[00:05:29]  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.
[00:05:36]  But I've never been given the opportunity to have a jury.
[00:05:38]  So this, when you are, the original question you asked is how would this affect me?
[00:05:43]  It may affect, I may end up in more court cases.
[00:05:46]  I guess I will.
[00:05:48]  But it's not going to affect me telling the truth on these issues.
[00:05:52]  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 spoke to people, people are already self-censoring.
[00:06:02]  Now, they self-censor out of fear.
[00:06:04]  They self-censor out of fear of losing their job, fear of being violently attacked.
[00:06:08]  There's all these different reasons why people were censored.
[00:06:11]  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.
[00:06:23]  And that's the same without the whole of Europe.
[00:06:25]  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.
[00:06:36]  That same fear that results in that is the reason we're in such a mess.
[00:06:40]  So I think if we become, if we start now watching our words again, it only leads one way.
[00:06:46]  Everyone can see what's happening to our country.
[00:06:48]  Everyone's been able to see it for 30 years.
[00:06:50]  But I believe we're at a breaking point of that the dam has burst in Britain.
[00:06:55]  You saw that on September 13th.
[00:06:56]  We had millions.
[00:06:58]  The biggest protest the country has ever seen in our history was on September 13th.
[00:07:03]  The next one is on May 16th.
[00:07:05]  So they're accelerating these non-jury trials and they're accelerating these laws in order to limit speech.
[00:07:10]  This is all about limiting speech.
[00:07:12]  It's not about limiting hate.
[00:07:13]  We have laws.
[00:07:14]  We've had laws for decades that we have laws that incitement to violence and incitement to racial hatred.
[00:07:19]  So 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.
[00:07:29]  You can receive probably 10 years in jail for something like that.
[00:07:32]  So we have laws.
[00:07:33]  You're not allowed to say racist words.
[00:07:35]  We already have all these laws.
[00:07:37]  What this blasphemy law is just about stopping telling the truth about Islam.
[00:07:42]  It's all it's about.
[00:07:43]  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.
[00:07:52]  So when I did Restoring Honor, I think it was, on the mall back in 2009, it was in Washington, D.C.
[00:08:03]  And I was terrified because I had no idea if anyone would even show up.
[00:08:08]  It turned out to be the largest gathering at the Lincoln Memorial since Martin Luther King.
[00:08:15]  And it was shocking to me.
[00:08:18]  And it woke some politicians for a little while.
[00:08:22]  You gather a million people in London, you know, just based on the population difference.
[00:08:29]  That speaks volumes.
[00:08:32]  What do you, A, expect to happen, you know, because of this?
[00:08:37]  And B, are you at all concerned about people showing up because it's dangerous, it's scary, whatever?
[00:08:50]  It's a multitude of things.
[00:08:52]  So what are going to achieve?
[00:08:53]  What does it do?
[00:08:55]  We, as I said, what they've managed to do in this country, and I think January 6th was about this as well.
[00:09:01]  It's about putting fear in the public that they're even allowed to demonstrate and a multitude of reasons that have happened.
[00:09:08]  And that's what's been going on in Britain.
[00:09:10]  So September 13th come after they'd locked us all up.
[00:09:14]  They locked me up for my film.
[00:09:15]  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.
[00:09:31]  Now, after he'd done that, that day, the police found an al-Qaeda manual under his pillow.
[00:09:37]  They found Royce in his room.
[00:09:39]  But within hours, they made statements saying it was nothing to do with terrorism.
[00:09:43]  And then the newspapers run a picture of him as a choir boy.
[00:09:47]  And this was what the public were told.
[00:09:49]  And the public knew there were lies.
[00:09:50]  So there was outrage at the time about the fact we were being lied to again because we're continually lied to.
[00:09:56]  There's a terrorist, and I follow all these terrorist attacks, Glenn, yeah, and they just lie.
[00:10:02]  So, for example, if you Google now and you go and look at Russell Square attack, look at Russell Square attack, yeah.
[00:10:10]  And anyone can do this.
[00:10:11]  Look up Russell Square attack.
[00:10:12]  You'll see a Muslim went screaming, Alal Akbar, and he murdered an American.
[00:10:16]  I'll give you this example because I'm in America.
[00:10:19]  And he murdered an American citizen and stabbed about another seven or eight.
[00:10:22]  Never classed as terrorism.
[00:10:24]  They just hid it.
[00:10:25]  They said it was mental health.
[00:10:27]  So there was another woman beheaded, an old pensioner beheaded in London.
[00:10:31]  It wasn't classed as terrorism.
[00:10:32]  They just played it all down.
[00:10:34]  So it's not terrorism.
[00:10:34]  So we were told straight away, Axel Rudaquana wasn't terrorism.
[00:10:37]  Now, at that point, tensions were boiling over over this issue.
[00:10:41]  People come out to protest in that town, that one individual area where Axel Rudekana had stabbed these children, and someone else turned up of Arab appearance with a weapon.
[00:10:53]  Now, chaos happened then, because it's in a rough British area anyway.
[00:10:57]  Chaos happened and riots started.
[00:11:00]  And they started in anger against the police.
[00:11:03]  And those riots spread.
[00:11:05]  But as they spread, the police, there was riots about six weeks before this by migrant background.
[00:11:12]  And the riots went on and police officers were attacked, buses were burned.
[00:11:16]  This was over something totally separate up in an area called Leeds.
[00:11:20]  So the public have seen these two incidents.
[00:11:22]  Now, Keir Tharma weaponized the judiciary and he weaponized the police and they imprisoned anyone.
[00:11:28]  They just literally grabbed anyone that was on the streets because they classed them as riots, even if someone was peaceful.
[00:11:34]  Now, during these riots, they locked up Lucy Connolly for a tweet.
[00:11:37]  Lucy Connolly was a mother who wrote a tweet.
[00:11:40]  They gave her 31 months in prison.
[00:11:42]  She's never been in trouble in her life.
[00:11:44]  She's a law-abiding citizen.
[00:11:45]  So is her husband and family.
[00:11:47]  She had young children.
[00:11:48]  They locked her up and gave her 31 months prison.
[00:11:50]  They sentenced her to 31 months for a tweet that she deleted after an hour.
[00:11:55]  So she put a tweet up, angry about what was happening.
[00:11:58]  She wrote some hateful words and they and then she deleted after an hour, put an apology up.
[00:12:03]  They come and dragged her and imprisoned her.
[00:12:05]  Someone who shared her tweet, they imprisoned, even though they didn't write the tweet.
[00:12:09]  Now, they also imprisoned a gentleman who was an old age pensioner, who they imprisoned him and he died in jail.
[00:12:19]  So he and he imprisoned him.
[00:12:21]  He had a sign against our government reading about government corruption.
[00:12:25]  But the purpose of all of these imprisonments, all of them at that time, and they live streamed it.
[00:12:30]  So someone would be arrested at a demonstration on the Saturday.
[00:12:33]  By the Monday, they'd sent them to jail.
[00:12:35]  Now, anyone who knows the court system in the UK, that doesn't happen.
[00:12:38]  Now, none of the men who were rioting six weeks prior when we were burning buses and burning police cars from migrant backgrounds had even been arrested.
[00:12:45]  There was no big appeal, but within a day, they had everyone's images from the papers wanted on the Saturday.
[00:12:53]  Sunday, they had all their images everywhere.
[00:12:55]  On the Monday, they were kicking off doors live on TV.
[00:12:57]  They were bringing TV news and dragging out women from their houses who had pushed a bin.
[00:13:03]  This is what they did.
[00:13:05]  And they televised it to the British public to let them know, basically, get back in your houses and shut up.
[00:13:12]  Now, what had happened is people had started protesting about the migrants in the hotels across the UK at this time.
[00:13:18]  And the story that they never tell you is, say, for example, there were protests in Rotherham, outside the hotel in Rotherham, where they made out that all the migrants are the victims.
[00:13:28]  They don't tell you that those migrants have been harassing, sexually harassing young children in that town.
[00:13:33]  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 hotel and stabbed someone to death shouting Free Palestine.
[00:13:43]  Stabbed a British old age pension.
[00:13:44]  They don't tell you that.
[00:13:45]  The same in the city of Tamworth, where the local community had gone to the hotel there.
[00:13:50]  They don't tell you that a Muslim had left that hotel and raped an English woman on her way home.
[00:13:54]  They don't tell you that 25 men had left hotels and raped women and children from the hotels.
[00:14:01]  These are the hotels, and there's a big anger in the UK because the migrants are being brought in.
[00:14:05]  It's all planned.
[00:14:06]  They're being brought in, then they're being distributed around the UK into our communities where our wives and children are.
[00:14:12]  And then they're raping and attacking and committing acts of terrorism.
[00:14:15]  So that's what's happening.
[00:14:16]  That's why there's this ruining anger in the country.
[00:14:20]  And they televised it and they locked up innocent people who had committed no crime.
[00:14:24]  They give no opportunity for bail.
[00:14:26]  So usually people get bailed.
[00:14:28]  Like we see these migrants who sexually assault children.
[00:14:32]  We had a big case in another area called Epping where the migrant had been here two weeks.
[00:14:37]  A schoolgirl was walking to school.
[00:14:39]  He's jumped on her, sexually assaulted her.
[00:14:41]  She's a young child.
[00:14:42]  They give him bail.
[00:14:43]  But at the time of these, 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.
[00:14:55]  Now, all of that.
[00:14:56]  Okay, hang on, Wait, wait, wait.
[00:14:59]  I got to take a one-minute break.
[00:15:00]  Come back.
[00:15:01]  We've got about three more minutes left after I come back.

=== Empires of Blood and Soil (11:49) ===

[00:15:15]  All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor.
[00:15:17]  Sometimes the answer to your problem that you're dealing with is sitting right in front of you.
[00:15:21]  You just didn't recognize it at first.
[00:15:23]  If you've been living with pain for a long time, you know how that happens.
[00:15:26]  After a while, you start looking for solutions and you start adjusting to the problems because the solutions you find aren't working.
[00:15:34]  I can tell you, it doesn't take long to get there from personal experience.
[00:15:39]  I've been there, but it doesn't have to be that way.
[00:15:41]  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.
[00:15:49]  And for a lot of people, that's the thing, you know, that's been there all along.
[00:15:53]  And you haven't really taken any steps to really reduce that.
[00:15:57]  Over a million people have tried Relief Factor.
[00:16:00]  Two-thirds of them have gone on to take more.
[00:16:02]  And if you've been listening to me talk about Relief Factor for a while, maybe today is the day.
[00:16:06]  If you're already taking it, you're already getting the enhanced formula designed to work even smarter with your body.
[00:16:12]  So start the three-week quick start.
[00:16:13]  It's 1995 at relieffactor.com.
[00:16:16]  Call 800, the number four relief, 8004 relief, relieffactor.com.
[00:16:24]  You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
[00:16:32]  Here's what I posted yesterday in response to Alexander Dugan.
[00:16:36]  I have warned you about this man literally since the late 1990s.
[00:16:41]  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.
[00:16:52]  He just thinks Russia will survive.
[00:16:55]  Ha!
[00:16:56]  Islamists will eat all of us if we don't unite.
[00:17:00]  This can very well turn into the final battle as this is what all of these people want.
[00:17:06]  Pray for the Republic.
[00:17:07]  Dismiss him at your own peril.
[00:17:09]  His puppets are in our media, EDU, mosques, and churches.
[00:17:16]  So I'm not going to convince everybody here.
[00:17:19]  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.
[00:17:34]  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.
[00:17:43]  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.
[00:17:51]  And if you don't believe any of that stuff, I'm not going to try to convince you.
[00:17:55]  It's clear this story, maybe this program is not for you.
[00:17:58]  But for those who do not wish to push their head in the sand, let me begin here.
[00:18:05]  Who is Alexander Dugan?
[00:18:07]  And what did he say to make me say that yesterday online?
[00:18:11]  Most Americans have never read any of his scholarly books.
[00:18:15]  Few could summarize his worldview because, again, most have never even read him.
[00:18:21]  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.
[00:18:34]  But with Dugan and his acolytes, you have to be extraordinarily careful because the surface may seem like, oh my gosh, look at that.
[00:18:42]  That's just a smooth river there.
[00:18:44]  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.
[00:18:54]  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.
[00:19:02]  Dugan is a political thinker, but not just a political thinker.
[00:19:06]  He is a guy who is obsessed with civilizational conflict.
[00:19:11]  He believes liberal democracy, individual liberty, and Western values are not just wrong, but all must be destroyed.
[00:19:20]  At the center of his philosophy is something that I think is deeply unsettling.
[00:19:25]  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.
[00:19:39]  This is a guy who some would say is Putin's brain.
[00:19:43]  That's in dispute.
[00:19:44]  know if that's true or not, but he is somebody with incredible global reach now.
[00:19:51]  He wants to return to a pre-modern order.
[00:19:55]  And when I say modern, pre-modern, I don't mean before there were aeroplanes.
[00:20:01]  This is a world not of free individuals, but of empires and blood and soil and destiny.
[00:20:08]  And he doesn't fear chaos.
[00:20:10]  He welcomes it.
[00:20:12]  Because in his framework, chaos is not the enemy.
[00:20:16]  It is the main tool.
[00:20:19]  His core belief really is not complicated.
[00:20:23]  He believes that the modern Western world, when I say that again, don't think before the Wright brothers.
[00:20:30]  Think of everything built since the Enlightenment.
[00:20:35]  He believes everything since the Enlightenment, including the Enlightenment, is a mistake.
[00:20:41]  He believes that individual liberty, human rights, equality before the law, these are not, in his view, universal or self-evident truths.
[00:20:51]  Throw out the idea that all men are created equal.
[00:20:55]  Throw it out.
[00:20:56]  He believes these are all illusions, corruptions, and weaknesses that have hollowed out civilization.
[00:21:04]  So what replaces them?
[00:21:06]  Well, he's argued openly for what he calls a fourth political theory.
[00:21:11]  That's the name of one of his books.
[00:21:13]  It moves beyond liberalism, beyond communism, beyond fascism.
[00:21:18]  Oh, well, that kind of sounds great.
[00:21:21]  Beyond fascism.
[00:21:23]  Sounds academic or even sometimes worth exploring in this age, you know, where everything is breaking down until you understand what it means.
[00:21:33]  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.
[00:21:46]  That fascism under Hitler, Hitler didn't go far enough.
[00:21:50]  And so he has come up with a fourth way.
[00:21:54]  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.
[00:22:07]  So when he says traditional, he doesn't mean, hey, we should all go to church on Sundays and have family dinners.
[00:22:12]  That's not what he's talking about.
[00:22:14]  And yet that's the way he's interpreted and he wants you to interpret him that way.
[00:22:19]  Here's what he said in 2012 when he was a little more stealth.
[00:22:23]  And people will hang their whole entire support on things like this.
[00:22:29]  Listen to this, see if it doesn't sound seductive.
[00:22:32]  Quote, we conservatives, he's not a conservative, by the way, we conservatives want a strong, solid state.
[00:22:40]  We want order and a healthy family and positive values, the reinforcement of the importance of religion and the church in society.
[00:22:50]  We want patriotic radio and TV and patriotic experts, patriotic clubs.
[00:22:55]  We want a media that expresses national interests.
[00:22:58]  A lot of people will hear that and go, oh, well, he's just like me.
[00:23:03]  No, he is not.
[00:23:07]  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.
[00:23:17]  Remember, he believes Hitler and Stalin did not go far enough.
[00:23:24]  He means traditionalism as a return to the world before the Enlightenment.
[00:23:31]  In other words, what we used to call the Dark Ages.
[00:23:36]  Hierarchy, empire, power justified not by consent, but by myth, by history, and force, brutal force.
[00:23:47]  Yeah, but Glenn, he's just, just, it's just a book that he's written, a few books.
[00:23:52]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:23:54]  Yeah, well, they're well read by some everywhere.
[00:23:58]  Yeah, but it's still a book.
[00:24:00]  Uh-huh.
[00:24:00]  Uh-huh.
[00:24:01]  Let's remember that that phrase, just a book, is what they said about Mein Kampf.
[00:24:07]  Just a book also applies to the Bible and the Koran.
[00:24:13]  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.
[00:24:27]  Do you think any of that is happening now?
[00:24:30]  This is why they call him Putin's brain.
[00:24:32]  Do you think any of that is happening now?
[00:24:36]  Of course it is.
[00:24:37]  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.
[00:24:47]  He has described the United States as the central enemy in a civilizational struggle.
[00:24:54]  Let me use another term, the Great Satan.
[00:24:58]  Now, who else believes that we are the poison to the world?
[00:25:02]  Are we fighting them anywhere?
[00:25:05]  Are we fighting them in our streets, in our universities?
[00:25:09]  Are they growing in our mosques and on our cities?
[00:25:12]  Are they now Russian allies, Russian allies that call us the Great Satan?
[00:25:19]  Of course they are.
[00:25:20]  And they are uniting and they are looking for more people to be disenfranchised and to unite with them.
[00:25:28]  The enemy of my enemy is my friend, they all believe.
[00:25:33]  He has framed global politics not as cooperation, but as permanent conflict between rival worlds.
[00:25:41]  Chaos.
[00:25:43]  He has unlimited writings and interview, and he comes back over and over again to the same idea, that struggle is not unfortunate.
[00:25:52]  It's natural and necessary.
[00:25:54]  Remember, Mein Kampf, what does that translate to?
[00:25:58]  My struggle.
[00:26:00]  What is jihad?
[00:26:02]  My struggle.
[00:26:03]  Dugan is speaking directly to our struggle that must end in the destruction of the world.
[00:26:12]  Now you can listen to this as a Westerner and say, Glenn, that is out of your mind crazy.
[00:26:17]  Nobody, really?
[00:26:19]  It's no crazier than the Twelvers in Shia Islam.
[00:26:24]  No more crazy than the people who are marching through our streets today saying we're going to burn the system down.
[00:26:32]  And the reason why this is really dangerous is because this guy is super, super slick, and he wraps himself in religious language.
[00:26:42]  He speaks of destiny, of a spiritual war, of a sacred struggle.
[00:26:47]  He is not a Christian, although he aligns himself publicly with the Russian Orthodoxy.
[00:26:54]  But if you really look at him, no, his thinking is not rooted in any kind of Christian theology.
[00:27:01]  None of it.
[00:27:03]  None of it.

=== Building Faith Without Christian Roots (03:22) ===

[00:27:05]  He pulls from mysticism, philosophy of man.
[00:27:12]  He is the stew that cooked up Hitler around the turn of the century, 30 years before Hitler was around.
[00:27:20]  What you get will be something that sounds like faith, but is definitely not faith.
[00:27:27]  Religion not as submission to God, but as a tool of power, identity, and mobilization.
[00:27:34]  A philosophy which works as a religion, but preaches chaos and the current world order has to collapse.
[00:27:44]  He doesn't fear instability.
[00:27:47]  He calls for it.
[00:27:49]  He argues that geopolitical disorder should be introduced into the West.
[00:27:54]  That, listen to this, internal division should be amplified.
[00:28:01]  And that the system should be weakened in any way it can until it gives way.
[00:28:07]  You know, I think we think an awful lot alike.
[00:28:10]  You always taking your financial house seriously.
[00:28:13]  You've been disciplined.
[00:28:14]  You saved where you could.
[00:28:15]  You cut costs where it made sense.
[00:28:17]  You tried to build something stable for your future without losing, you know, what matters.
[00:28:22]  Don't lose sight of that.
[00:28:24]  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.
[00:28:30]  Yeah, yeah, I've been meaning to, but I don't know.
[00:28:34]  I don't want to take on, you know, I don't want to change my loan.
[00:28:37]  And, you know, I want to do it if it's the right thing to do.
[00:28:40]  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.
[00:28:48]  And sometimes that's all it takes.
[00:28:50]  And you don't have to take it.
[00:28:51]  You don't have to get rid of your really low mortgage rate to put your house in financial order.
[00:28:57]  Don't mess with that.
[00:28:58]  And they can show you how to do that.
[00:28:59]  Today is the day.
[00:29:01]  No upfront fees to find out if you qualify.
[00:29:03]  Call American Financing 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440 or go to AmericanFinancing.net.
[00:29:10]  That's AmericanFinancing.net.
[00:29:12]  Hello, America.
[00:29:13]  You know, we've been fighting every single day.
[00:29:15]  We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
[00:29:21]  We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
[00:29:26]  But to keep this fight going, we need you right now.
[00:29:29]  Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
[00:29:33]  Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
[00:29:41]  This isn't a podcast.
[00:29:43]  This is a movement and you're part of it, a big part of it.
[00:29:46]  So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top.
[00:29:51]  Rate, review, share.
[00:29:53]  Together, we'll make a difference.
[00:29:55]  And thanks for standing with us.
[00:29:56]  Now let's get to work.
[00:29:58]  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.
[00:30:14]  And I thought, look at Dubai.
[00:30:15]  Look at the way they're building things.
[00:30:17]  Look at the way China is building things.
[00:30:19]  These new nations are building all these amazing things.
[00:30:21]  And we used to be in that position.
[00:30:23]  We're not anymore.
[00:30:24]  And I thought, what are we now?

=== Beyond the Unknown Moon (09:35) ===

[00:30:27]  You know, there was a time when the very edge of the world was not a metaphor.
[00:30:35]  It was a belief.
[00:30:36]  It was a conviction.
[00:30:38]  It was a line on the map where reason stopped and terror began.
[00:30:45]  Just beyond that line, God only knows, sea monsters, darkness, cliffs, unknown.
[00:30:53]  But there were people in the West that went anyway.
[00:31:00]  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.
[00:31:13]  I don't know if he was, whoever the textbooks say discovered America the first time for the West.
[00:31:19]  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.
[00:31:32]  And that is our story.
[00:31:33]  That's the story of Western civilization, but it is uniquely American.
[00:31:38]  As I was driving in this morning, there was this big, beautiful moon.
[00:31:42]  And I looked at it.
[00:31:43]  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.
[00:31:53]  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.
[00:32:06]  All of the people that refused to accept limits.
[00:32:12]  And is that still alive?
[00:32:15]  It is.
[00:32:16]  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.
[00:32:26]  Artemis II.
[00:32:29]  Artemis II, think of the astronauts, not the famous ones of the past, but the ones we don't even know their names.
[00:32:36]  They leave tomorrow to go deeper into space than any human has ever gone before.
[00:32:43]  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.
[00:32:53]  Apollo was really the question, and Artemis is the answer.
[00:32:57]  And the names are important because it comes from Greek mythology.
[00:33:00]  And Artemis was the twin sister of Apollo.
[00:33:04]  He was the sun.
[00:33:05]  He was bright and bold, and everybody saw Apollo.
[00:33:08]  She was the moon.
[00:33:09]  She was steady, watchful, and enduring.
[00:33:13]  So Apollo was meant to blaze the path that everybody saw.
[00:33:17]  And Artemis is the one that claims the ground and is immovable.
[00:33:23]  Because that's where we are now.
[00:33:27]  Years ago, we sent men like John Glenn and Neil Armstrong into the unknown.
[00:33:34]  As Kennedy said, not because it was easy, but I think not even because it was hard.
[00:33:38]  We sent them there because many thought it was absolutely impossible.
[00:33:42]  And Americans needed to know if impossible meant something, something that has never existed before.
[00:34:06]  This is going to be a permanent gateway.
[00:34:08]  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.
[00:34:20]  We are going to live on the moon and then we are moving to other planets.
[00:34:25]  And for the first time in human history, we're not going to be just visiting another world.
[00:34:30]  We're preparing to stay there.
[00:34:32]  And that changes absolutely everything.
[00:34:39]  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.
[00:34:45]  And all those things matter.
[00:34:47]  But they are not the measure of a civilization.
[00:34:51]  This is.
[00:34:53]  Exploration is.
[00:34:56]  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.
[00:35:12]  Why did Columbus come here?
[00:35:15]  It wasn't just for exploration.
[00:35:18]  It was for gold.
[00:35:20]  Because that's the only way you could get the kings to do it, for gold.
[00:35:25]  And they believed that it would be waiting for them.
[00:35:27]  There would be cities made of gold glittering just beyond the horizon.
[00:35:30]  But it wasn't.
[00:35:31]  At least not in the way they imagined it.
[00:35:34]  What they found instead, years and centuries later, we now know was far more valuable.
[00:35:40]  New worlds, new ideas, new possibilities.
[00:35:43]  What happened on this continent reshaped humanity itself because somebody got onto a boat.
[00:35:52]  This time, we're not going blindly to the moon.
[00:35:55]  We have data, we have the maps, we have a better understanding of what waits for us.
[00:35:58]  We know the resources at the lunar caps.
[00:36:03]  We know we can make fuel.
[00:36:05]  We have pathways now to Mars and beyond.
[00:36:11]  That's why we're going.
[00:36:12]  But I think what we'll actually find will be much, much bigger than what we're currently looking for.
[00:36:22]  The greatest discovery is never gold.
[00:36:24]  Never has been.
[00:36:26]  It's never been the land.
[00:36:31]  It's been the expansion of the human mind and the human experience.
[00:36:36]  And that's where we excel over all other countries.
[00:36:40]  That honestly is what makes us great.
[00:36:43]  Our boldness, our daring, are 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.
[00:36:55]  When a civilization decides the horizon is not the boundary, but that's the beginning, that's when everything changes.
[00:37:04]  That's when we change the world over and over and over again.
[00:37:09]  And that's why tomorrow matters.
[00:37:14]  Tomorrow matters not just for science, not for national pride or technology, but because something happens to a people when they stop exploring.
[00:37:35]  when you stop exploring you shrink When you stop exploring, you turn inward.
[00:37:43]  You begin to argue over smaller and smaller things because people have forgotten how big the world really is.
[00:37:52]  We, you know, we argue over taxes and money as if it's a finite pool.
[00:38:02]  It's not.
[00:38:05]  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.
[00:38:14]  There's more water in there.
[00:38:15]  There's plenty of water for everybody.
[00:38:20]  Expanding our understanding.
[00:38:22]  Stop fighting over the small things.
[00:38:24]  Artemis is a chance to reverse all of that.
[00:38:28]  It reminds us that we're not just citizens of a nation.
[00:38:32]  We are participants in something that is much, much larger.
[00:38:38]  What we begin today, think of this.
[00:38:41]  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.
[00:39:00]  Because what we start tomorrow will put us out into space in ways none of us can imagine.
[00:39:18]  Tomorrow, for the first time in all of history, we start to begin to become what we've always been destined to be.
[00:39:31]  Humans who will soon, over time, be known as earthlings.
[00:39:41]  Because tomorrow, four people get into a impossibly small capsule and put unbelievable amounts of explosive power behind them.
[00:39:54]  And they become spacemen.
[00:40:01]  The moon?

=== Mourning a Unique American Spirit (01:18) ===

[00:40:03]  Been there, done that.
[00:40:04]  This isn't about reaching the moon.
[00:40:08]  This is about changing everything.
[00:40:12]  This is about rediscovering the part of ourselves that I miss most of all.
[00:40:21]  What I mourn when I think about the loss of America is not our cars or our success or our houses or anything else.
[00:40:31]  I mourn that unique American spirit that says, why not?
[00:40:40]  Who says we can't?
[00:40:46]  Let's do it.
[00:40:53]  Tomorrow we begin to rediscover that part of ourselves that looks at the impossible and refuses to believe it.
[00:41:03]  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 Find out
