Episode Date: September 16, 2026

Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) was confronted by TMZ and explained why she's boycotting Ed Sheeran as the drama surrounding his tour and Macklemore's removal continues. Since then, every opening act and Sheeran's touring band have dropped out of the show. Glenn breaks down the Left's hypocrisy in this instance, the impossible situation Ed Sheeran was placed in, and how almost nobody is thinking about the hardworking people who will be left empty-handed if the tour gets canceled. Former Muslim Danny Burmawi joins to discuss why he proudly identifies as an "infidel" as he breaks down the dangers rooted within Islam. Does Senate candidate James Talarico (D-Texas) have a chance at turning Texas blue? Glenn, Jason, and Rikki go through some of the worst Talarico statements that should end his campaign in Texas.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Room at the Waldorf. You're going to understand that whole story and what, where you should stand, in my opinion, where you should stand, where I stand on this whole thing. Also, we speak with Danny Burmawi. He is a guy who was a Muslim converted over to Christianity and is now speaking out and saying, we need to be proud we're infidels. Wake up. And James Talarico, Texas, all on today's podcast. You're listening to The best of the Glenn Beck program All right Let me let me start with this audio from AOC It's cut four I think Comes on the radio While you're driving along

Are you changing the channels? I am You are? Yeah Why is that? I think that What we've seen Especially

It's not just What has happened with the act And not just in removing Maclemore from the law lineup, but when you see what Robert Kraft did to line up all of the stadiums to censor speech in that one specific way, it's become clear that this is not just about one music artist or two music artists, but this is about how just a handful of stadium owners and the elite can prevent an entire massive issue. In this case, the genocide in Gaza. But,

it doesn't stop there. It could be speaking out about AI. It could be speaking out about any issue that you can now just get a handful of stadium owners to ensure that an entire person's career can be jeopardized if they speak out about any issue. So it's like cancel culture. Is that what you're saying at AOC?

It's cancel culture. Yeah, it sucks, doesn't it? When you can get a handful of groups together and they can put pressure on, let's say, I don't know, advertisers and get people pulled from the air, kind of sucks, doesn't it ain't it? My gosh, I'm going to lose my mind. I'm sorry. Blood might chew through my eyes at any moment. I can't take the hypocrisy. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I know everybody always says it's the hypocrisy, but it really is the hypocrisy. How they can clearly see it on one side and not the other. So let me tell you what's really going on here. Ed Shearin is playing Philadelphia on Saturday. As of right now, he doesn't have an opening act. He was playing at MetLife. His opener, the rapper McElmore, told the crowd that he joined the tour

so he could stand in stadiums all across America and say two words, free Palestine. I don't know. Me, I want to go to a concert. I'm paying to go see a concert, especially not go. going to pay to see the warm-up band. But when I go, I want to forget all of this stuff. Can you leave me alone?

I don't want you to talk about Donald Trump and how great he is. I don't want to hear any of it. Play music. But maybe that's just me. Maybe everybody who's going to see Ed Sheeran is like, oh, I got to hear about free Palestine. I got to hear about how wrong the Jews are. Oh, my gosh.

So then he played his protest song, written for students who took over a building at Columbia. Images of gauze on the screens, and he did it the next night. So now Robert Kraft, who owns the Patriots and Gillette Stadium, it's wholly independent he owns it. He barred McElmore from the building. McElmore says Kraft then rallied other stadium owners behind an ultimatum. He says, you don't play here. Okay.

I know Robert Kraft has a right to do it because he owns it. So it's not a free speech thing. If you own it, I don't have to have you play here. You know, I own this building. I'm not doing drag shows here. I'm sorry, and you can't make me. I own the studios. Sorry, not going to do it.

Is that harming your freedom of speech? No. What you're saying is if a private person, owns private property, you don't actually own your private property, and I'm sorry, I do. It's my property. I can do what I want to do. Cool. So then the promoters confirm that venues told him exactly that. So Monday, McElmore off the tour, Kraft said it crossed a line, pointing to New Jersey and what he calls a broader history of anti-Semitic rhetoric and imagery. I'm being as calm and as nice as I possibly can on this.

And I think you might be surprised where I come down on it. But anyway, so on Tuesday, Sharon speaks out. He says it's the promoter's decision, not mine. Okay. He said, I spent a week trying to build a bridge and I couldn't. Okay. He said, I'm not going to abandon the fans, the crew, or the musicians who rely on me to make a living. He said he's appalled by the war, but he's not going to be drawn into a public fight over it.

Good. That's his right, too. Just like it's McElmore's right to speak out against the war. Within hours, every remaining supporting act quit. Aaron Rowe, an Irish singer-songwriter who says Ed changed his life. Bioga, an Irish folk band that played in the middle of Ed's set. Lucas Graham from Denmark and Phineas, Billy Eilish's brother. He was booked for South Africa.

Okay, or South America. First of all, Phineas, what do you expect? It's Phineas, of course. The rest of them, I don't even know. Now, you might, but I'm not going to see, what is it, bodega or whatever they are. I'm not going to pay a ticket of like $600 to see bodega. Okay?

When they get big and I'm sure they're going to, going to be big. Well, maybe not. The world may never know their greatness now that they've decided to do that. But that were their principles, and that's their right as well. So let's look at this. A dad on X with fewer than a thousand followers did something almost nobody bothers to do. And that is write Ed Sheeran a letter that just says, you know, a tweet that just says, dude, I love you. But this is so offensive. I had to leave the stadium with my kids. And then come back. When you on. Really, is this what you want to be? That caught fire. He decides, Kraft decides to start it up with the stadiums and then we're off to the races. If Shearin cancels, he eats roughly $25 million.

600,000 fans go home disappointed. 10,000 workers lose the days they built their calendars around. 25 to 50 million in profit disappears. And next time he does tours, he tours alone, unless he makes every opener act sign a contract promising never to say anything political on stage, which I think they should do anyway. Now, those are one man's estimates. It's not an audit. But his was the only post that I read this week that remembered the guy who hangs the lights. That's why artists have business managers

Because if they were left their own devices They'd be broke by Thursday and proud of it I'm a starving artist Yeah, whatever But look what actually happened Because for a little while The system was working Mahamore said what he believed

Onstage out loud His right Robert Kraft decides You know what? You're performing a building that I own that's my right to say you're not performing here. If you want to say those things, McElmore was Shear and okay with that? Did you tell him?

Because it's his show. You're an invited guest. Okay. As long as the man is inviting you to be on the stage, but then if he's invited you and you said, hey, I'm going to do this. And he's like, I'm fine with that. Well, then you've got a problem with Ed.

Four acts walk away from real money over principle. I think their principal is wrong, but that's their paycheck. It's whatever. They're protesting. that's their right. Shearing decides he's going to keep his crew employed, keep his opinion on the war himself. His right. And every person holding a ticket gets to decide whether they're going to go or ask for a refund. They're right. Everybody chooses. Nobody arrested. Then comes the part that isn't a choice.

Sheeran's silence is now being called cowardice. One critic said he led a billionaire pick his politics for him like you haven't with George Soros. McElmore's own song accuses artists who stay quiet of complicity. The rule is simple. Neutrality is not permitted. You are going to say what the mob tells you to say or you're guilty. Is that the kind of country you want to live in? And I don't care.

I don't care if it's happening on our side because we don't get a pass. We don't get a pass. Anybody who says, you're, wait, wait, wait, you're for this war? You're a traitor. What? No. You don't agree with everything this guy does or that guy does or you don't agree with everything I say?

You're a traitor. No, I'm not. I'm somebody who has an opinion and sometimes I agree with people. Sometimes I don't. Gillette is private. Now, here's where it gets sticky. Most of the other stadiums on this tour are owned by cities and states.

I know that Philadelphia is 100% city-owned. That's a different story now, because now you can make a case. Now, I don't know how this comes out, but it's a city-owned venue. So now you can make a case and say, this is private speech. And you are violating my First Amendment

because a city, a government, can't do that. Hmm. She. That's a problem, isn't it? That's a real problem. First Amendment. If a taxpayer-owned stadium banned a Christian singer for something she said about an abortion, I'd be on the microphone for a week.

I wouldn't want to go to the concert because I'd go to the concert. I don't want to hear about abortion. There's a growing crowd on the right that wants its own loyalty oath. And it's the same disease as we have. I mean, it's terminal on the left. Don't catch that disease. Now, I don't know what the answer is on this. It's going to be raised by somebody.

And it's another reason why the stadiums should be private and cities should run a city, not a stadium. You know, we've been here before. And it answers all of it. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Truth is under attack in our culture. People are embracing lies about gender. They're rejecting the sanctity of every human life.

And the government is even punishing people for saying what's true and right. Or worse, the woke mob is doxing them and slandering them with no due process. Just an angry mob making their lives miserable or worse, putting families in real danger. But the biblical principles on which our country was founded still matter. Real patriots and Christians are beginning to stand up. They're showing real courage without a safety net of a big bank account. They're bolstered only by the truths that are self-evaluation. but these people must be defended.

Alliance defending freedom is on the front lines of this fight, and they're standing in courtrooms across the country upholding truth, and your right to speak it.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Danny, welcome back to the program. I'm glad you're here. We had such a huge response to you when you were first on because people wanted to hear your story. So can we start there? Tell me your story. You were born in Jordan and you were a diehard. If I'm not mistaken, you told me you cheered on 9-11 and not for the Americans.

Good morning, Glenn. Yeah, I was 13, as I told you. But, I was 13. I told you. But, It doesn't mean that I was radical because that is a misconception. If you are a Muslim, then you side with Islam. You side with Allah. You side with the believers, the followers, the faithful to Allah. And America is against Allah. So I cheered not because I was radical. And in 2006, I became devout.

But again, that was not radicalism. That was just mainstream Islam. I became devout in response to the Danish cartoonist who drew the prophet of Islam in Denmark, if you remember in 2006. And I decided, all right, I'm going to defend Allah, I'm going to defend Islam, I'm going to defend the faith. And one year later, I left Islam. So, of course, it's a long journey.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Why did you? I mean, you're ready to go. to defend Islam, what changed? I could answer this question in different ways, but I would say that first, the theological answer. In Christianity, we have something called justification. You feel at peace with God.

You're justified, not because of your performance, but because of what God has done on your behalf. In Islam, there is no sense of justification. You feel this enmity. No matter what you do, how dedicated you are, I'm not exaggerating. I would wake up at 4 in the morning and then wash with cold freezing water because that gets me more credit with Allah and walk to the mosque and I take the longer road because that gets me more credit in dark as I was praying, God please give me peace. God, please give me your light. and a year later there was nothing absolutely nothing and of course on top of that you read the history you read the violence you read the personal life of Muhammad and God sent someone my way who started

planting the seeds of doubt you know when you read the Quran for example if you're a Muslim and you read the Quran you read to worship not to understand there's no critical thinking there And I did that for all of my life. And then this guy started asking questions. Like, hey, where do you think of this? Where do you think of that? And for the first time, I would be reading the Quran. And oh, my goodness, Muhammad married his daughter in law.

I was like, what is this? And then I would say, okay, there got to be an answer. I would go to an imam or a cleric. And I was like, where do you think of this verse? And no answer. So anyway, I left Islam and I became Christian after reading the Gospels. And that's what happened. Have you heard this?

I've heard that I don't know if any of this is true. But I have heard that there's a ton of Muslims that are converting now, especially over the Middle East, because they're having dreams of Jesus. Have you heard that? Yes, I heard that. I was a missionary in the Middle East for 14 years. I worked in eight different countries, planting churches, preaching the gospel.

And I'm not a big fan of the theology behind dreams. I'm reformed, so I know that man of your audience won't be like that. But anyway, no, I believe that millions of Muslims are leaving Islam. Millions. You won't believe that full churches are women and hijab. They're just converted. And they still wear the hijab. It's a cultural thing.

But yeah, it's happening all over the Islamic War. that's for sure. You said something a minute ago that there are, basically, there are no radicals. How do you explain that? Yeah, the radicals in Islam, they are the secular, the moderate. Because what is radicalism? You're not adhering to the, genuinely to the faith. If you are following the commandments of the faith as Allah meant them to be or Muhammad meant them to be,

then you are just moderate. And ISIS, Kaida, they're moderate Muslims. They are the true followers of Islam. I know that is shocking. I know that many people would call this Islamophobia. Well, you cannot call me Islamophobia. Try if you want. My mother is still a Muslim.

but I'm telling you the truth. If you want to be a faithful Muslim, you must be a terrorist. Thank God, the absolute majority of Muslims are not faithful to Islam. The Islamic countries, Glenn, they have deactivated Islam. They keep the shell, but their laws, they are imported from the West. Unfortunately, not 100%, but I mean, if... If you steal something, you don't get your hands, what is the word, amputated. You don't get it amputated. Why? Because they don't follow Sharia anymore.

They don't behave you. They don't stone you. They used to do that in Saudi Arabia until recently. That is Islam. That is moderate Islam. And there is, let me be clear here. Islam is monolithic. Let me repeat that. Islam is monolithic. I know that many people love to say, oh, Islam has different set of beliefs and different currents. That is not true. Muslim sects, they differ on ridiculously minor things or non-theological things. I'll give you an example. The two major sects in Islam, Sunni and Shia, you know, Iran and Saudi Arabia. They have been fighting for 14th centuries. You would think, oh, they're fighting over theology, just like Protestant and Catholic. No, they're fighting over politics. Who should have been the caliph after Muhammad? Is it Ali or

Omar? But on theology, they don't differ on anything. The same God, the same book, the same prophet, the same biography of Muhammad, the same sayings of Muhammad, minor things. So would you say then the people who follow the 12th Imam, the 12ers as they know, as they're known that that's what most of Islam follows? Because I've always heard the opposite, that the 12ers are really frightening and dangerous. I was a Sunni before. I converted to Christianity.

I was not a 12th or Shia. Yeah. Let me tell you this. Sunni Islam is way more dangerous than Shia Islam. Even though Shia Islam, the 12ers, they are Iran and Hezbollah and the West has, painted a picture about them, but think of ISIS and Hezbollah. Yes, Hezbollah is a terrorist organization that's for sure killed Americans and doesn't hesitate to kill civilians.

But nothing, nothing similar to what ISIS did. Burning people alive. Just remember 2013, 14, 15. And so Sunni Islam, that violence in Sunni, Islam doesn't have a purpose. It is for the purpose of terrorizing the enemy. In Shi'a Islam, violence has a teleological end because they're waiting for al-Mahdi. Of course, Sunnis too, they're waiting for a Mahdi, but it's like a different version of Al-Mahdi. But let me say this again. These are eschatological differences. They are, they don't agree

on what's going to happen when al-Mahdi comes back. But when it comes to to the main pillars of the faith, because I need to be clear about this. When I say Islam is monolithic, I mean the Quran, the same Quran, the same interpretation of the major doctrines. They pray five times, five times, Muhammad, his story, all of the main things. But eschatology, even among Christians, if you think about it, we have a thousand different eschatological interpretation within Christianity, right? But we go to the same time. church. We, maybe if you are, next Sunday, ask the person next to you, what do you think about this? Statology? Probably they would, they don't believe in the same thing as you do, but you still

go to the same church. Why? Because this catology is not really the main pillar of the faith. Correct. The meeting, yeah, so. But it is starting to become a important topic as, you know, many people believe we are living in those end days. People have, I mean, the apostles thought it too. So you never know. And the Shia end of time story is almost like somebody took the book of Revelation

and, you know, just wrote the opposite. And you're like, I mean, wow, because their good guy is our bad guy and our good guy is their bad guy. And I think they mean it.

And, you know, when you're looking at, you know, the scriptures tell us is a, you know, a 200 million man army. Okay, that might be China, but that's easily Islam. If 10% of Islam is radical, that's over a million, a hundred million man army. Yeah. You know, and I think it's probably, you know, if things got heated up, you'd have a 400 million man army easily with Islam. Every generation thinks of themselves that this is the end times.

We are the generation of the end times. Because we love to be the center of event. We love to think that we are the most important generation that has ever left. I don't, even though I'm a theologian myself, but when it comes to eschatology, I prefer to keep it to myself because I believe that you have been following what was happening and there was a debate between dispensationalism and replacement theology within Christianity and the anti-Israel were weaponizing theology and chanting,

crisis king, crisis king, you know, to take a jab at Jews, using theology to justify your actions or your positions, this is something global. Every group in the word does that. The difference is that in Islam, and this is, This is a very important point because many people think that Islam is like an embryonic version of Christianity. You know, Christianity was violent, then there was their formation, and then Christianity became reconciled with liberal democracy, and now Christianity can't coexist. That is ridiculous. That is ridiculous. Christianity was never violent.

It was Christian people who were violent and based on no scripture at all. So when the church decided to do anything. things like to burn witches, for example, there is no scripture to support their stance. Now, the difference is that in Islam, it is the text itself. So when people say, is it possible to reform Islam? Again, they are projecting their own understanding of religion unto Islam. They think, oh, the same thing is going to happen with an Islam, just like Martin Luther and John Calvin. But that is a false comparison.

because the Christian Reformation was going back to the Sula Scripura, to the text. If Muslims decide to do that, we will end up with 2 billion ISIS terrorists. We don't want that. So Islamic Reformation took place after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and that was the birth of the Muslim Brotherhood. That was the reformation. So another definition or misdefinition, I would say, is that in the West, when the founding fathers penned the Constitution, the Bilephites, they were not thinking of Islam. They were thinking of different denominations within Protestantism and Catholicism, maybe Judaism. They were not thinking about Islam at all because Islam does not fit the Western definition of religion. Islam is, Islam has...

Wait, wait, wait, wait, I just want, I got to take a break. I want people to sit with that, and then I want you to come back and explain that. you're saying Islam, and this is critical. You're saying Islam does not fit the definition of a religion. Quite a statement. Back that up in 60 seconds. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Would you remind me, Jason or Ricky? I want to make sure that my wife and I, I want a rapid radio right here on my desk, and I want a rapid radio in her purse all the time. I got home yesterday. I had done radio. I went right into two meetings. Then I went into a writing session. No, I did an interview.

And then I went over and I was filming for four hours with Prager University. I get home. I'm dead tired. It's like six o'clock. and I get home and my wife said, did you, the same thing she says to me every day. Did you see my texts? And I'm like, no, honey, I haven't seen.

Why don't you check my text? Honey, because I'm working. I haven't had a chance to see the text. I just want a rapid radio. I do, because I'm tired of that question. Did you see my text? No, you know what? Push this button.

It'll ring right to me. I don't care if I'm on the air. I will, yes, Come in, come in, Captain Tanya. Yes, I'm here. What do you need? And it's always like, do you want to go out and see a movie on Friday night? Yes, yes, I do.

Yes, I really, really do. So could, Ricky, could you just tell Lauren. She'll get it done for me. I have already passed on the message, and I didn't use a rapid radio to do it, but it is passed on. Good, all right. Thank you. Thank you. On my desk and one.

One on interpers. Because you know what I'm going to do all day? I'm going to go, come in, Tanya. Tanya, can you hear me? Hey, Tanya, this is not inconvenient for you to talk to me right now. Am I disturbing anything by talking to you right now? I'm going to be doing it to her. So it's war.

Anyway. All right. Let's see. Let's talk about Taurico. In fact, do we have the Dalleroico, Texas song? Because, I mean, this says it all. Texas, where the brisket's made a piece. Made a piece.

When we honor all our soldiers, we identify as trees. Trees, don't we? I love my gal, my dog, my truck. We fight. Maybe disagree on the Lord. It says a lot in Texas. Okay, so, Tala Rico, the guy is, honestly, the guy is, he's nuts. He's nuts.

he is not Texan in any way, shape, or form. Let me ask you this. If somebody came, Jason, if I came up to you and said, Hey, Jason, who's your favorite drag queen? I got nothing. I got nothing. It's not like I'm having to think between a few. I'm not like, wait a minute, wait a minute.

I know that I know. I got nothing. I got nothing. This is exactly what happened with Talarico. Listen to this. This is Colorado. So nice to read. Sorry.

I was there when you defended the drags. Who's your favorite drag queen in Texas? Oh, my gosh. Probably Alyssa Edwards. Alyssa Edwards. I love Mike Mays. Thank you so much. Oh, probably Alyssa Edwards.

I mean, like, no hesitation. Who's your favorite drag queen? Oh, Alyssa Edwards. It's got to be Alyssa Edwards. I mean, you know, I've been thinking about it for a while. You know, I used to really love Tom, you know, but Alyssa. I just really, really love. I really love.

Who is Melissa? Jason? So, Alyssa. Alyssa, sorry. Not Melissa. You didn't know off the top of your head? I'm sorry. I confused Melissa and Alyssa all the time.

She's another drag queen. So Alyssa Edwards was actually featured on Netflix. A video was seen of Alyssa Edwards on Dancing Queen, where he is in full on drag at a dance studio working with little children. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, what could possibly go wrong there? I don't even know the show. If somebody said, what's your favorite dancing queen show? I don't think I could even come up with, oh, dancing queen.

I couldn't even come up with the name of the show, but apparently he probably had to know the show and the dress. drag queen. So two points for him. While we're on this, would he support trans ban on minors? Cut eight. Would you vote in favor of a national ban for transgender surgeries when it comes to minors? Absolutely. And in fact, in the legislature, I voted for an amendment that would have restricted the bill in question to a ban on surgeries for minors. Wait, wait a minute. Wait a minute. That's a point. plot twist, isn't it? Here he is on cut nine.

During the 2021 hearing, you said there are six biological sexes. Do you still believe that standing here in me right now? No. I've missed the mark on some of my past statements. I will be the first to admit it. What I meant is that there are two sexes and then there's a small percentage of people with genetic abnormalities. I obviously didn't say it correctly.

There are not six sexes. There are two. Oh, come on. Got me, too, does anybody believe this? Does anybody believe this? You can't say there's six genders and then say, no, there's two sexes. Because the whole thing is it's not about sex, it's about gender. Remember?

That was the whole argument. You can't name your favorite drag queen and then say that. Yeah. Go ahead. I don't think anyone believes this. And this includes the Texas Democratic Party. manager who was caught on a hidden camera on the Daily Wire caught this and they said well this is the tem of actually I have the video do you want yeah yeah go yeah here it is

oh why would he walk back um I would say right now he's trying to target a white or not which unfortunately means like being more palatable to Republicans here in Texas okay and I think That from the character that he's shown us, it seems like he does believe the things that he said before. But at this point in time, in Texas, he's over. His support for trans children has not changed, though. Yeah. In his heart, he still supports. Yeah, I think it's, you talk to some Republicans, and they're very Republican, especially here in Texas.

Very to the right. That's all it is. I mean, it is, it's, it's, who doesn't know this? Who really? Really? Texas, you're going to get what you deserve if you let this guy win. You're going to get what you deserve. And I don't want that to happen. I mean, you can't let this.

There are a lot of dumb people who will go, yeah, it's just like me. I'm kind of like that too. I believe, you know, maybe there's some people that were, you know, have sprouted three weaners. And so we've got to take them into effect. but there's only two sexes. That's just like me. That's not who he is. And those people exist,

and they're going to go out and vote because he's also going to promise free stuff. And if you're at home going, you know what, I just don't really like the way, you know, Cornyn and I, you know, I don't like Ken Paxton and the way he handled his marriage.

Yeah, neither do I. Neither do I. Are you going to punish yourself by putting this clown in? Who do you think is going to get hurt by that? But, you know, hey, it's your vote. Whatever, whatever. And by the way, he wants you to know that all of his money

is coming from hardworking Texans, cut six. The thing about fundraising is you've got to look at where the money is coming from. You know, I don't take a dime from corporate packs. I never have, never will. All of my money comes from hardworking Texans who are giving $5, $10, $15 at a time. And billionaires and billionaires and people from California that you're taking money from. Come on. Could you do it?

Could you sleep at night? Because I know all politicians, and I shouldn't say all politicians, a lot of politicians. They do this. And they say, could you sleep at night? Because I couldn't. Ricky, you want to add something to this? Oh, I'm just saying, this guy wears Texas like a skin suit. He goes, there's ads of him going into Cracker Barrel and,

like he's one of the hard work in Texans that he's talking about. And it's just like a joke. And he's just like, what do I do with this biscuit? Like, he is a tale of two Talaicos. Truly, truly. There are two Tlerikos. We have evidence of this. Several statements on tape going back years and say,

whatever you want about Ken Paxton, he hasn't changed. I want to play one more. Cut seven. And then I want to give you my commentary on it. Scripture tells us that you can't love God and hate other people. You can't love God and abuse the immigrant. You can't love God and oppress the poor. You can't love God and bully the outcast.

We spend so much time looking for God out there that we miss God in the person sitting right next to us. Absolutely true. In that neighbor who bears the divine image. I was brought up to believe that in the face of a number, neighbor, we glimpse the face of God. Matthew 25 tells us Christians exactly how we're going to be judged and how we're going to be saved by feeding the hungry, by healing the sick, by welcoming the stranger.

I often wonder what would Jesus do if he visited the U.S. Senate? I think he would tell the senators on the floor, depart from me. Depart from. I was hungry and you cut my food assistance. Oh, that's, yeah. I was sick and you kicked me off Medicaid. Amen. I was a stranger and you deported me and my family.

Pre-John brother! This is the biggest heresy I have ever seen. That's not Jesus. Give me a minute. I'll come back. Would it calm down a bit? Because Jesus is clear on what he would have said to the Senate. He already said it.

We can go check the book. It's in the record. We know what he'd do. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.
