The Glenn Beck Program - Can MAGA Trust President Trump on the Iran War? | Guest: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna | 6/17/25

Episode Date: June 17, 2025

Glenn begins the show by asking an important question: Do you believe President Trump is a warmonger? Trump has remained consistent in his hatred of foreign wars. If you can’t trust President Trump, who can you trust? Glenn breaks down the different camps of people in this current Iran-Israel conflict. Glenn also elaborates on the role of “Twelvers,” which is a terrifying Islamic belief. Glenn takes calls from viewers to gauge their feelings about potentially getting involved in the Iran-Israel conflict. We’ve been hearing for decades that Iran is days away from having a nuclear weapon, so why should we believe the warnings now? Glenn theorizes what President Trump’s tactic is in dealing with Iran in this conflict. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) joins to discuss what Congress is thinking about President Trump’s recent moves regarding the Iran conflict. Glenn lays out why he believes anti-Semitism may have a role in some Americans not wanting to support Israel in this conflict. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Well, gee, looks like nothing's going on, except the president leaving in the middle of the G7 and flying back to the United States and then having about three o'clock in the morning a national security meeting

in the national security briefing room deep under the, ground of the White House. But other than that, no big deal. I don't think anything is are you kidding me? What is happening? Well, I'll try to make sense of it, but I really want to hear from you today. 8887-27-B-E-C-K because we are very divided as a nation. I'm going to tell you exactly where I stand throughout the show, but I will tell you that I think it will surprise a lot of people. You know, I am very, very loyal to the Jewish people and to Israel, but I am, also an American, even if I held, and I don't, I've always wanted to, but even if I held an Israeli passport, I'm still an American first, and no, no, we're not going to fight your

wars. Hmm, now what does that mean? Well, with everything in life, it is nuanced. There is no such thing as a right or wrong answer when you are looking at a situation like we're looking at on every front in the world today. We did not use common sense. We thought we could have it all. We thought we could just get away with it forever. And we can't. And if I may quote Jeremiah right, the chickens are coming home to roost. So there are no good answers now. Everything has a bad side to it. So let's look at that nuance and also talk to you on the phone at 8887-27 B-E-C-K. By the way, Thanks Pat for sitting in for me yesterday and also filling in for stew all this week. Let me first tell you about our sponsor this half hour that provides limited commercial interruption.

It's the international fellowship of Christians and Jews. Israel is at war after decades of escalation. Iran made its intentions clear. Israel responded to protect its people, striking back at military targets, nuclear infrastructure, and those who have openly vowed to erase them from the map. In the middle of this, among the rockets and the fear and the uncertainty, there are still families to feed, hospitals to stock, children to comfort, lives to save. And the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground right now, distributing food, first aid, emergency kits, whatever it takes to help the most vulnerable survive what comes next. The elderly, the sick, the displaced. These are the people who need our support right now.

I would imagine that Iran has the help of the Red Crescent. which is like the Red Cross, but not exactly. But Israel, we can help, and we should as Christians, not necessarily get involved in their wars, but help them and stand by and let the Jews know. You're not alone this time. The fellowship is also equipping hospitals, emergency rooms, and shelters with life-saving supplies,

but that only works if you step up. And I've stepped up. My family has stepped up. We ask you to step up. If you believe in this, if you want blessings, support the people of Israel. It's IFCJ.org. IFCJ.org.

Go there and support IFCJ.org or call 888-488-I-F-C-J. Okay. All right, let me... Where do I even... This is so much. Okay, let me start with this. A few questions. Do you believe Donald Johnson?

Trump is a warmonger? Yes or no? Do you think Donald Trump is swayed on things that he deeply believes? For instance, tariffs, do you believe that anyone, because he was practically, I think maybe his first word was tariff when he was born. He has been for tariffs since the 1970s and 80s. He has always talked about tariffs. Do you think anyone is going to talk him out of tariffs? Anyone? I don't. Because I believe me, I've tried. Now, what's the other thing that he has said since the 1970s? No war. These foreign wars have got to stop. Okay. So the first question that you have to ask yourself is has Donald Trump become part of the problem somehow on things that he's not wishy-washy on. I could see him flipping on certain things, but he's not wishy-washy on these.

These are things he was born saying, no foreign wars and tariffs. He loves them. No one's going to change his mind on that. So has he changed? And if he has changed, does that mean you no longer trust him because he either lied to you or somebody got to him in the deep state? So can you trust him anymore? Next question. If you can't trust him, who can you trust?

A guy who stood on stage and was shot because he stood for what he believes in? You can't trust him, who can you trust? If he's suddenly been co-opted by the deep state. And I'm not saying that's not a possibility. I don't think that's what's happening. But, you know, we've seen too much together. We know anything is possible. So if you can't trust him, who do you trust?

Because remember, chaos and trust are polar opposites and are both needed for their objective. chaos for the destruction of the Western world, and trust for the healing of the Western world. I don't give anybody blanket trust. I mean, don't. Don't. You shouldn't give it to me. You shouldn't give it to anybody. You have to verify yourself. Trust, yet verify, is what Reagan used to say. Okay. So you have to make your decision first on where you stand on Donald Trump. Is he a guy easily swayed? or does he make decisions based on the, for instance, he has told me, Glenn, if I get down the road in these tariffs, which they're not because they're great, they're beautiful, they're going to work.

If I get down, they just don't work. You think I'm going to keep doing tariffs? No. I think the guy is reasonable. I think he's an intelligent man and he's a businessman. Now, next question. Are you one of these categories? Are you, because this is who I see on Twitter, are you one of these people that says,

light them up and you're just a neocon? You're just somebody who doesn't mind all these foreign wars. You know, you just find a way to, you don't want to be a neocon. You don't think you're a neocon, but you are always there for the next foreign war. Honestly, that's who I think I used to be. I didn't ever consider myself a neocon. I just trusted the government to, you know, well, we got to do these things because I try, well, I don't trust anymore. I don't trust anymore.

And I also am smart enough now to look back in history and see, have any of these things worked? Because none of them have worked. Regime change. Not worked. Not worked. Okay. Are you that? Are you part of the group of people who don't want war, but you understand radical Islam, you're willing to admit it.

and you know who these 12ers are. I think that is the category I'm in, which doesn't make you pro-war. It just means you will think about it. Are you people, or are you part of the people who don't want war? And you know what radical Islam is, but you don't want to think about it. That's what's caused many of our problems.

We haven't named our enemy, and it is Islamic. That's what it is. And I've said since 2003 or four, the head of the snake of all of this, you know, is not Afghanistan. It is not Iraq. It's Iran. Okay. And nobody has been willing to go there. But if you know who the 12ers are, you probably, you know, have a different point of view.

Because there are people that were so radical that even the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979, banned them because he thought they were too crazy and too dangerous. Okay, so are you part of the people who don't want war and you're willing to look the other way on radicalized Islam? Or are you part of, I don't know, the trolls from the West that either just really just want more chaos or, you know, you're paid by somebody who sows propaganda for state actors or just to create division. I don't know. But I think that is really, really broad, but that's pretty much what I see on X, those four camps. People who are just like, yep, they're a troll.

Nope, they won't admit what radical Islam is because they don't want war. And I completely understand that. Or people who don't want war, but understand who radical Islam is. Or just people are like, light them up. Let's go. What are we waiting for?

United States, USA, USA, USA. Those are the categories. Are you one of those categories? If you are, I hope you're not one of the, you know, either the first one or the last one. I hope you're one that is still reasonable in between. Because not everything is a black and white checklist. If you have a black and white checklist where you must hold all of these values or you're an enemy of the state, you're not going to get anywhere.

You're not. you're not because life does require some compromise i'm not saying on war but it requires some compromise it requires you to listen and ask questions and not judge everything from the past now that one is really hard because we've had a hundred years of this and look at where it's gotten us we're broke we literally cannot afford another war another war another war will put us possibly over the edge and our economy will completely collapse. All right? So we literally cannot afford another war.

But people will say, well, we can't afford not to have another war. Okay, we can play this game all day long. So the next question I have to ask you, is Iraq just another, I'm sorry, Yeah, Iran is Iran just another Iraq or Afghanistan or Libya or Syria or any other ones? Is it just another one of those that we would go in and I am not, by the way, just want to make it very clear, I am not for going in. Is Iraq and Afghanistan the same as Iran? or is it possible that it is more like Poland? I do not have an answer for you because any answer I would get would be from a government

or some sort of a think tank and I don't trust the think tanks and I don't trust our government anymore. You know, the CIA used to be the place where you could go and they could tell you, but, you know, they've told us all kinds of lies. I mean, you know, they're doing a color revolution. They've been involved in a color revolution in our own country, let alone color revolutions all over the world. So I don't trust them. I want to ask you, is this, here's what I said in Afghanistan.

We were in Afghanistan for maybe two years, and I said, this is not going to end well. Now, I had high hopes, but it's not going to end well because, does anybody remember why I said this? I said, I don't think it's going to end well because I haven't seen the person you can put on the free Afghani money. When you're in a war, war will produce heroes, real heroes that stand up and are willing to just take the flag into places that nobody else. We have so many people in our country that could go on the money. If you look at our founders, they all could be put on our money because they all were, being, they were willing to give up everything.

They were willing to die for what they believed in. I didn't see anybody in Afghanistan that was leading people. I saw a lot of people that were helping us, but I didn't see anybody who was a leader that stepped up to the plate and said, this is who we are, we are meant to be free, we have got to move forward. I didn't see that. That was out. Same thing with Iraq.

Nobody. Nobody stood up. Same thing with Libya, Syria, everything else we've been involved in. Never have I seen it. Not in Vietnam, not in Korea. Nowhere. Nowhere. Saw it in Poland.

Saw it in Hungary. Saw it in Georgia. I saw it in the former Soviet Union with the satellite countries. And here's how I describe them. The people that wanted Levi's and, American music. There was this movement then that they wanted to be more like America. And those people, like Valenza was one of them, those people led their nation into freedom.

Now, I ask you this because I believe the Iranians, I don't know. And I know I'm, you know, I'm finally dicing here, but the Iranians, I put them into, a different category with a giant question mark. They could be exactly like the Afghanis. But the Persians, and again, I know I'm cutting this finally, the Persians, they're the best educated, they're the most westernized, they're the least likely to be radical, and they love the West. How many of them are there on the We know a lot. We know millions because they have marched and marched and marched and marched and then were beaten in the streets and then disappeared off the streets. So I know they exist. I just don't know what number they exist in. Is this another Afghanistan or is it possible that this is a Poland?

Again, answering any of these questions does not lead you to an answer of whether the United States of America should go in. that's the only thing the only question that that is is is it in our interest is it in our actual front line affect us today interest and that question leads me to another question and we'll get to that one in just a second first let me get to relief factor summer is here and that means the things that really matter front yard wrestling you know wrestling matches with the kids and and the grandkids tend into your garden, been waiting all year to plant your garden, walking barefoot through the grass while the sun goes down. Here's the question, are you looking forward to it? Or are you bracing for it because pain has a way of getting between you and the moments it used to bring you

joy? Don't skip the trip to the lake because you don't want to go. You skip it because you feel like you're going to be back in pain as soon as you get out of the water. You're not going to be able to toss the ball. You're going to just, you're going to pay. Don't. Stop saying no. because your knees can't take the pivot anymore. What if it could change? Relief Factor is a daily drug-free supplement that helps fight inflammation. If your pain is coming from inflammation, there is a real good chance, 70% chance this can help. It's at the core of so many types of pain.

This summer, you don't have to sit on the sidelines. Give their three-week quick start to try. 195. Visit Relieffactor.com. Relieffactor.com are called 800 for relief. 800, the number four relief. 10 seconds, station ID. All right, I've got a couple of other things to lay out. I'm going to take your phone calls here in just a couple of minutes.

But I want to lay out two more things. You know what Islam is. Let me ask you the question. Do you know what the 12ers are? If you don't understand what the 12ers are, then you don't understand the mullahs and the clerics of Iraq. You don't know why they are saying death to Israel, death to America all the time. I mean, that's a popular phrase, I guess.

You know, some hit numbers have come out of it. But in Iran, the 12ers actually mean it. What is a 12er? They believe in the coming of the 12th Amam. They believe that the 12th Amman was born. They came for him, you know, I don't even know, an 800 or whatever. He climbed into a well. he hid and he's just waiting for his return and he'll only return when the world is washed in blood

so he can come and bring the end of times. That's what you're dealing with in Iran. So you cannot think rationally because they don't think rationally in the cleric circles. They don't. Persians, they think rationally. The clerics, the mullahs, they do not think rationally. even for Muslims, they don't think rationally. They are to wash the world in blood to hasten the return of the promised one.

If you know who the 12ers are, how does that affect your opinion? One last thing. And then I'm going to the phones. Buckle up for this one. I believe we are in the beginning of the final battle. I believe this is the beginning of the Battle of the Antichrist. Might take us 40 years to get there. But this is the beginning of it.

And this all ends when Christ splits the mountains. But I believe all the players are on the ground. This is Glenn Beck. Now what do we do about it? Your phone call next.

Get it at glenbeck.com. To the Glenn Beck program, I want to listen to you today. I'm tired of listening to social media and I don't know if you're a bot or not,

but I can hear you and I know you're real. Stephen in North Carolina. Where do you stand on what is happening today with us? appearing to be getting closer to war with Iran. Thank you so much, Glenn. It's a privilege to be able to speak with you. I think I'm in a very similar position as yourself. I like to let you know I am a veteran,

and this is kind of personal. I served. I had buddies in Iraq in 2006 that were hit by Iranian IEDs and lost their legs. were injured. And so in that sense, it is a little bit personal. But stepping back from that, I want to go back to something Stu said the other day, Israel, or maybe it was Jason, when Israel strikes, they have to do it right, because if they don't do it correctly, the retaliation could be a nuclear weapon on their country. And something else in retrospect, I believe what Trump went

through with the assassination and him saying that God has put him in this position for a reason, That time is standing true right now. And I believe that we don't need new wars, but in this case, there is a specific example of God's people, which you quoted Genesis earlier this week. I heard you, or last week, that those that West Inde shall be blessed. Those that curse shall be cursed. I do not believe when Donald Trump or the American people stand before God, he's going to say, you were in debt, you rejected my people, and I'm proud of you for doing that.

I don't believe if Donald Trump chooses to aid. in limited ways the Israeli people that God is going to look at that as a negative thing. I think that we shall be a blessed nation for blessing the people of Israel. Not that they're always correct, but in this instance, as you guys pointed out correctly, and I don't believe on boots on the ground. I do not believe on actively the Americans going in and storming the regime of Iran, but if there's certain technologies that the Americans need to assist the Israelis to carry out this mission, to protect the state of Israel. I am 100%. I voted for that. I am with Donald Trump.

The Israelis know they have a president that fully supports them. And I truly believe in my heart, Glenn, that God has placed our president in the position that he's in for such a time is this. I agree. I think with almost everything that you've said, I want to emphasize no boots on the ground. The question is, we're not, we're being asked now to take one of our bombers. and drop one of the largest bombs we have that is non-nuclear, the only one that could penetrate. What is it, the Nance site, Pat, do you remember which one it was? But we can't, Israel doesn't have anything to penetrate.

So it would be our plane, our pilots dropping our bomb. It's not like, hey, we're going to sell this bomb to Israel and they can do it. We would have to do it. Does that cross the line for you? because I think it would for the rest of the world, it would put us in the war. I believe it's hard for me to answer that question, because I'm with you. That is an internal struggle because, you know, if you cross that line, as far as, you know, where we're allowing our pilots to deliver these deployments, if you will,

well, why not the boots on the ground? It's the same thing, in essence. I get that. But truly, I guess my answer is kind of a little bit of a dodge, but we need to have our president and vice president actively in prayer. God, what should I do? And then it doesn't matter what Trump does. He knows if he has a true relationship with God, he'll know he's doing what he's supposed to do. And so I think we just, as the church, as the Americans, we truly need to be in prayer right now for our president and our leadership. And that is what's going to make a difference in this situation is the power of prayer. Not this, well, let's just pray thing that we see online. But I'm talking about putting the phone down, putting the social media down, turning off the TV. except for the Glenn Beck program. And after it goes off,

but we seriously need to be praying for our president because this is not easy. And no matter what he does, he's going to catch flack from one side or the other regardless. Thank you so much for your phone call, Stephen. I appreciate your well-spoken and calm, rational thought here. It's funny that you would say the prayer thing, because I just said in the break to Pat,

I said if I were the president, I would be asking right now. I would be not asking. I'd be telling the nation. Today is a day of national fast and prayer and humiliation. You know, humble yourself before the Lord. Fast and pray. I mean, I prayed right before we went on the air with the team and I said,

Lord, please don't, please instruct me on what to say. Please make sure that I'm not leading anybody astray on this. This is way too serious, way too serious. And I do believe that we are in the final days. Again, I don't know what that means. But I mean, all, everything, how far are we away from a, you know, a chip in our forehead, Elon Musk? How far away are we from the things we never thought is possible? A digital currency, a global government.

and a foe that looks at good as evil and evil as good. How far away are we from one side, not understanding the other? I mean, we're here. All of it is here now. And I really believe that, you know, the forces that you see in Iran are part of it. And it's not going to go away. It's just not going to go away. And so we do have to be extraordinarily prayerful on this.

But may I just add one thing to pray? I don't believe. I mean, I understand God if I look at him as my dad, okay? Not my actual dad, but my, you know, my perfect dad. Everybody's perfect dad. How do you discipline a child? God does not discipline with anger. He tells you over and over again, don't do that.

Don't do that. Don't do that. It's going to hurt. It's going to hurt. It's going to leave scars. Don't do it. And then when you do it, he doesn't punish you. Your actions punish you. Okay. All you have to do is say, Dad, I am so sorry. And dad will come back and say, okay, forget about it. Let's start again. No matter how many times. Okay, forget about it. Let's start again. And he never, ever holds a grudge or is not forgiving of your mistakes. So I learned how to punish my children. You know, you punish just enough to make sure they understand the consequence and they respect the consequences, but it hurts you inside to do it. The other thing is, when you're praying, why do people go to God and go?

What should I do? If your kids, if you're trying to be a good parent, if your teenage kids come to you, or your 20-something kids come to you. You might ask them questions, but when they come and say, Dad, I'm in this predicament, what should I do? I shouldn't say this. Mom, because guys always are like,

I got the answer for you. Mom, what do I do? Mom usually ask questions. And if you're talking about women, they don't want the answer. I don't think God wants to give you the answer. I think God wants to verify the answer. I think God wants all of us to do our own homework.

So we are not just helpless boobs that are looking to somebody else, like me, God forbid, to give you an answer. You have to listen to me and then ponder. It's why I started the first half hour with nothing but questions. You have to ask and answer questions. Who am I? What does this mean? Who is involved? What are the ramifications of this? Then you have to decide, I think I stand here. That's when you go to dad. And you humble yourself and you say, dad, I think this is the right answer.

Which one is the one that you are going to look at your kid and probably weep with joy when they leave the room or even if you can stand it long enough to leave the room? which one would make you weep. The one who says, Dad, I don't know what I'm doing. Give me an answer. Or the one that comes to you and says, Dad, I've watched you, I've listened to you,

I've done everything I can. I went here and I looked here and I went here and I looked here. And I think I have an answer. I just need to know, am I on the right track? That's when I as a father would go, my gosh, son, yes.

Yes. Yes. you're getting it. But no, that's not the right answer. I want you to go back and look at this. That's the way you pray with real power. You come up after doing all that you can do. And then, and you know what, it's really scary. Because once you, I've had this happen so many times in my life, you will know whether you're fooling yourself before you even get to prayer. Because you will say, I know what he's going to say. I know what he's going to say

Well do you A, do you know what he's going to say And B Why do you know what he's going to say Is it because there's too much of you in that answer Because there's too much of This is what I really want to do You know it's God when it's the thing you don't want to do

You absolutely know it's God When he's like, nope Uh-uh Don't don't buy that car Nope, don't take that job Nope, don't go to vacation You know in Hawaii right now And you're like, oh, crap, now you're faced with the final choice.

And the prayers only are strengthened with the Lord if you pass this final test. Will you do what he says? Will you then take it the next step and do it? Or will you say, nah, you know what? I think this is right. That must be just me saying that. Because you want to be that way. You want it so badly.

that's where that's where the obedient kids win every time they do the thing they don't want to do they do the thing that dad wants them to do but dad is not going to tell you if you haven't thought about it until today if you're like you know I just listen to

Glenn Beck program I don't know what should I do if I were dad if I were God I'd say I don't know maybe study it out in your own mind Why would you bring what Glenn Beck says to me? That's what Glenn Beck is doing. I've already talked to Glenn Beck about what Glenn Beck is saying. I need to know what you're thinking because we cannot truly be independent if we are not independent thinkers.

And look at the kind of thinkers the world is making us. Our education, what do they all say? What do teachers all say? This should have been the biggest red flag for us years ago. okay kids write this down because this is going to be on the test they don't mean write it down they mean memorize it they should never be saying that they should constantly be asking you questions to get you to think so you can defend it you can think it through you can you can share it with others your opinion then is truly yours if you really want to be independent if you really want to be

And I believe that's, I believe that is the first understanding of the order of prayer. I got to do my work first. Dad's not just going to give it to me. I've got to do my work first. All right, back in just a second. Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. you know, if I asked you to put a price on your car, you could do it. Might not be exact, but you could name a number, a certain amount of money where if handed you in cash, you'd be willing to hand over the keys. Now, how about your house?

Your house, that's a harder one. There's history there, memories, roots. There's probably still a number there, right? So the question that actually matters is what about your principles? Is there a price on your principles? No, there's not. you know, and there's not a price, especially, you know, when you're paying a bill to one of the big cell phone companies, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, part of that money is going to organizations that stand against your principles. But there is a choice, and it's Patriot Mobile.

Patriot Mobile gives you the same great coverage on the same cell towers, but they donate to causes you actually support pro-life organizations, first responders, religious liberty, veterans. Ask yourself again, is there a price on your principles? Or is this where you draw the line? Make the switch today. Go to patriotmobile.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot. 972 Patriot.

It's a pleasure to speak with you today. Thank you. Thank you. My thought is I support the people of Israel. I support the people that want to get rid of the Ayatollah and Iran. I don't support the war. I've seen... Wait, wait, wait, the war with Israel or us?

being involved in a war. Us being involved. Okay. I think I'm with you. I've seen the price. My husband is a veteran and, excuse me, suffering from PTSD and from all the health problems that came from that war over in Iraq. And I can't support our people going there. Jennifer, what's your husband's name?

David. David. Yes. Is that a chicken or a child? That's a chicken. Jennifer? I have an injured animal in my house right now. And he's responding to everybody outside.

Okay. Thank you so much for what you've already sacrificed for the country, and I completely understand. And Lord, please take David in your hands and Jennifer. and heal him, help her heal, and bring them peace and comfort, Lord. Thank you, Jennifer, for your phone call. We'll keep your husband, David, in our prayers. There are millions like that in America. Back in just a second.

Let me tell you about our sponsor for the spotlight. It's chapter. Ever tried to help a parent or a grandparent navigate through Medicare? you know, it's not good. It's complicated. It's more than complicated. It's exhausting. Plan sounds familiar, you know, but it's not. The rules change constantly and too often. People pick a plan that looks good on paper, but leaves them unprotected when it matters. And a lot of these people who help you, you know, we're going to walk you all through it. They're being paid. They want you in a certain plan. This is what happened to the founders of chapter.

They watched their own parents get screwed. Not by a lack of effort, but a system built to confuse, and they decided to do something. So they all left their jobs. They were very successful people. They left their jobs in Silicon Valley, and they wanted to put something together, not just an insurance company, another one, a license guide. They help you search every plan available in your area. They're not the ones that are paid to sell. And unlike most agents, they're salaried. So there's no incentive to put you toward a plan that doesn't fit. They've helped tens of thousands Americans find better coverage and save an average of $1,100 a year. That is the human way of doing it.

I want you to go now to chapter, ask chapter.org slash back or hit pound 250, say the keyword chapter. America, I want to talk to you a little bit about what's happening in the Middle East. We also have Anna Polina Luna joining us in about half an hour. Pat is with us. And I want to hear from you on the phone, 888727B. ECK about should we go to war with Iran or Israel. I'm pretty strong. No, I don't think so.

And I'm a big supporter of Israel. But no, I'm pretty much done with the foreign wars. But what does that mean? Do I trust the president or not trust the president? I want to go over some really important questions that you should be asking yourself before you make any of these decisions in just a second. First, let me tell you about real estate agents. I trust.com. You know, every once in a while I have a really good idea. You know, the changing of

Jefferson's airplane to Jefferson Starship. That was my idea. I'm convinced of it. The squeeze bottle for ketchup and mayo. That's me. Can't blame the Kardashians on me, although I did think about it. And then I thought, no, that's probably a bad idea. But one of the best ideas I ever had was real estate agents I trust.com. And that one can be traced directly to me. Well, to me and my brother. When you are buying or selling a home, you don't just need an agent. You need a great agent. You need somebody that you can trust, knows the market, works hard, actually is listening to you, knows what they're doing in every step, and has some of your same values.

So they can hear you, not just listen, they can hear you. We started building a network of top agents. I can't remember how many billions of dollars we've done in sales now. but these are professionals vetted by my team. These people do not work for me. We just watch them like hawks after we've vetted them.

They're people that we look for that share your values, take the job seriously. I mean, we learned, we started with the 500 best real estate agents in the country and we learned what made them the best. That's according to the Wall Street Journal, by the way.

What makes them the best? And then we went out and we sought for others like that so they could help you. You're looking for a real estate, agent, you know, that it will put the squeeze in the bottle. Yeah, real estate agents, I trust.com. That's real estate agents, I trust.com. All right. So last night, President was at the G7 Summit. He said, I have to leave. Macron said, well, he is leaving because he's got a ceasefire. And he said, Macron doesn't know what he's talking about. He never really does, but what's better

than a ceasefire? Well, I don't know. What is better than a ceasefire? And the president said this on the plane. Listen, it's very quiet. It's very quiet. We not have that cut. It's all right. Basically, he said, what's better than a ceasefire? Well, that would maybe be regime change? Maybe? I don't know. Although I'm a little skittish on regime changes, especially in the Middle East, not really worked out you know, like we wanted it to work out, ever. But maybe this is different. I don't know. Here's the thing. I think America is all warred out.

I know I am. I'm all warred out. We've been being the police, world's policemen since I was a kid. It's never helped us. It's never really, it's never done anything except to push us towards bankruptcy and more of our people killed. You know, we've had Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya. and they ended for what? Nothing. Nothing. What did we get out of that?

Nothing. Are we even safer? No, we're not safer. Look at our streets. Look what's across our border. Coming across our border, we have 8,000 terrorists in our country right now. That didn't make us safer by any stretch of the imagination.

What do we do that for? We've also been lied to our government over and over and over again for at least the last 100 years on all of this progressive nonsense on, you know, the State Department and how they want to just, fight wars now. There hasn't been a real end of a real war in how long since World War II? These are all police actions and they never, they don't seem to work out. I'm done with all of that. I think you are too. And we can't afford another war. Now with that being said, I think Iran, and I've said this since 2003, Iran's the head of the snake. It wasn't Afghanistan. It wasn't Iraq. You know, I thought the strategy from Bush was to take Afghanistan and Iraq and squeeze the

government of Iran enough to have it topple and let the people take over in Iran. But that didn't, I don't think that was even their strategy. I think that was me maybe hoping, you know, and all the talk about the nukes in Iran, I have a hard time, you know, weapons of mass destruction, George Bush. They weren't there. They weren't there. So now they have, I mean, I've heard since, what, 2000, 2005, Iran could be just days away from a nuclear weapon. And once they have one, then they can produce all of the, and I don't know.

I mean, I've heard this since 2005. You have no credibility with me anymore that they're just days away from a nuclear weapon. Now, are they days away? Maybe. I don't know. So what do we do? Well, I'm pretty happy with the current course. Israel seems to be doing a bang-up job, you know? And have you noticed it's not really causing any more problems on the streets in Saudi Arabia or Egypt or any other place? They all seem to be cool with what's going on. And why is that? Because everyone in the Middle East knows this is right.

What is Egypt doing? First of all, maybe we should be a little more like Egypt, you know, without the authoritarian regime. Maybe we should look at our borders the way Egypt looks at its border with the Palestinians. You know, there's a two-story wall all just, I mean, it is razor wire everywhere. Nobody's coming across that border coming out of the Palestinian section into Egypt. They don't want them. And strangely, neither does Jordan. Strangely, neither does the UAE.

Strangely, neither does Saudi Arabia or any other Gulf country. They don't want them. Why? Because revolution always follows. Thus, let me again bring you back to Egypt. What happened over the weekend? All these Palestinian protesters, the kinds that are on our streets. The Palestinians just, I mean, the Egyptians just pick them up, put them on a bus and said,

get the hell out of here or we'll throw you in jail. And they were all like, we can't protest peacefully. No, no, no, not in Egypt. It's not America. You're not doing that in Egypt. And one of the reasons why you're not doing that Egypt is because Egypt knows that the Palestinians, no matter where they go, they sow the seeds of revolution. Because that has been the pattern over and over and over again when one of the Gulf states take them. So why is it a problem for Donald Trump to do exactly what the Egyptians and the South.

Saudis and UAE and everybody else is doing, which is, hey, Israel, keep going. I mean, I'm not going to say that out loud, but keep going. Can we help you with anything on that one? Because, you know, don't turn around on us. We're going to deny it, but go ahead. They're all doing that. All of them. What is the other thing they're doing?

They're not siding with the Palestinians. They're not letting the Palestinian, you know, revolution break out in their countries. So why is it such a problem in our country to do what they're doing? Which leads me to believe maybe, just maybe, there's a lot of anti-Semitism on this one. I've never seen a country execute a war this precisely is the one that Israel is doing. I mean, it's unbelievable. It's unbelievable. Okay. So now let me take you to the third part of what I want you to really think about. Are we actually preparing for war?

Because every sign says yes. And maybe we are. I don't know. Every sign says yes. We're mobilizing. We're moving assets in. Yesterday, I think it was the Israeli said everybody needs to get out of Tehran. That looks like massive bombing coming there.

That doesn't seem like Israel, does it? We're talking about maybe using one of our B-52s and the only bomb that can get in to the Fordo plant to be able to get under the mountain to take out their nuclear facilities. We're the only ones that can do it. And we're talking about doing that. However, at the same time, Donald Trump said no, to killing the leaders of Iran, which were the leaders that put the plan in place for the assassination of Donald Trump. So it doesn't seem like he's being vindictive here.

What is actually happening? How do you make sense of the world? May I just suggest what do you know about Donald Trump? What do you know at the core of his being who he is? You know that he is a pro-tariff guy. You know that he hates war to the core. You know that he is terrified of nuclear war. And he's a negotiator.

And I don't think that is in the right order. I think he's a negotiator first. And when you negotiate at this high level, you don't tell everyone what you're doing. First of all, the first thing you have to do is establish credibility. And especially in a country like Iran, where the American president has never had any credibility because they say, you know what, you cross this red line and you're done.

And then they cross the red line. And they're like, okay, well, don't cross this red line or you're done. And then they cross that red line and nothing happens. Okay, well, don't cross it. Shut up with your red line. It means nothing to us anymore. What did Donald Trump do? He gave Iran 60 days to negotiate.

60 days. What happened at midnight on day 61? Israel unleashed hell on them. Donald Trump said you have 60 days and please get to the negotiating table. You don't want to see what happens in day 61. Don't do it. Don't. Don't. Don't. I'm holding them at bay. Don't. Let's negotiate. Okay. Now he has credibility. So now when they're talking about, well, you know what, we might do, he'll say, oh, yeah, well, you know, I'm talking to Israel about letting them use that bunker buster.

But, you know, I also think you're really dangerous night right now. I think, you know, put us on a war footing, would you? now the American people are looking at Donald Trump going, he just might do it. Are we going to war? He just might do it. What do you think Iran is saying? Iran is saying the same thing. He just told us 60 days.

He's not bluffing. The guy doesn't bluff. He's nuts. He's insane. Whatever you want to say about him. He's a negotiator. And the one thing that Iran really doesn't understand, I think, is negotiating from the best negotiator in the world.

But I am afraid the American people don't understand that either. Now, I could be wrong. So I'm not saying this is what's going on, but I believe this is what's happening. I believe he's negotiating. And, you know, he will follow it up. But what did he say soon as the bombs went out? He said, I told him 60 days. A, established credibility.

Then the very next statement was, please come back to the table. or it's only going to get worse. Okay? Then, while the whole world is watching the G7, something happens and he flies back. He leaves the G7 and he flies back at 3 a.m. He arrives and he goes directly into the situation room and they're moving assets around the world.

And then he says, hey, Iran, you should negotiate. You should negotiate. We're still at the negotiation table. I would suggest you get back. How freaked out do you think they are? Now, here's the thing. Have you ever been in tough negotiations with somebody? And they start to say things and you're like, wait, this wasn't part of the plan.

I don't, we didn't discuss this. But they're the leader. What should you do? If you're in negotiations, you should be going, yeah, I'm going, we talked about that, you know, all day long. You go out in the hallway or you go into. another room and you're like, what are you doing? What are you doing? We didn't talk about this, but you never say it at the table. Never. Because if they spot any division, that game is over. So what's happening online? Right now, we're dividing ourselves. I think the president is negotiating.

I know the president hates war. I know the president hates nuclear war. I know the president likes Israel, but he's not wanting to fight their wars. I know the president knows how much trouble we're in with Islamic extremism, especially the kind that comes from the 12ers in Iran. If I know all of those things to be true, he's negotiating. And he's hoping that Israel will do the job. We won't have to, but we can back them up by being tough negotiators and say, you know what, I think, you know what, go ahead, put us on a war footing.

Because then their side is at the table going, what the hell is this guy? I mean, and somebody at the table is going, he told us 60 days and 60 days we were having bombs ring down on us. He'll do it. But there's also somebody at the table that said, up, just lost Tucker Carlson. That guy helped get him elected. Up, just lost, you know, whoever, Sean Hannity and Mark Levin. in and Glenn Beck and they're all fighting against each other. He's not going to be able to hold his base together.

If he's, if he's bluffing, fine. If he's not bluffing, it won't be long because they'll tear him apart. Now, how does that help? Because you and me and Tucker and Sean, and, I mean, it used to be just the big anchors on CBS, NBC, ABC. Now it's not just even us. It's you. They're watching us as we're sitting at the table. We're blinking repeatedly.

I don't know what, I don't know. I have no inside information. I just think I know Donald Trump and what he abhors. I know Donald Trump on what he is terrified of, and that is nuclear war, and global, war, he knows that will be the end of us, all of us. I just don't see him as that guy. And so I have to ask, is the world's best negotiator now negotiating? And I believe the answer is yes, for the first time you have a president that is a good negotiator. Stop blinking. That doesn't mean I'm for war.

it just means stop blinking. Let's have these conversations amongst ourselves and not online. What do you say? Back in just a minute, let me tell you about leaf filter.

The only problem with negotiation is if everybody blinks at the table and the other side doesn't believe that they're going to do it, then the other side has to do it.

And that's a scary thing. We'll talk more about that coming up. We also have Anna Paulina Luna on with us in just a second. First, let me go to Nancy in Michigan. She'd been holding for a while. 8-8-7-27BEC. I want to hear from you today. Nancy, go ahead.

Hey, Glenn Beck, good to be with you. Thank you. Trump was chosen by God. Okay, so we need to trust Trump. He is the negotiator, like you said. God will lead him where we all need to be. Okay. And we also need to have Israel's back.

We don't need to jump into war, but we absolutely have to have their back if they get in trouble. you know, because they are the chosen ones and the United States are the chosen ones by God. Okay. And as far as the end times goes, yeah, we're in it. But Armageddon and Hamengog, God's going to fight those. They're going to be with Russia and Iran, and God's going to fight them.

We don't have to fight them. Okay. Nancy, thank you. I think I agree with a lot of what you're saying here. I don't like because, you know, David was also chosen by God, but David went awry. I mean, we have to engage our own brains. You know, America was chosen and now not necessarily so because we've gone astray. We really have to watch ourselves.

But I understand the essence of what you were saying, and I agree with the essence of what you're saying, and I do believe, you know, it's the war to end all wars eventually. This is Glenn Beck.

Congresswoman from the great state of Florida. You guys are kicking it down in Florida. I mean, you really, you're making Texas look at quite honestly. Thanks for coming on.

Thanks, Glenn. I'd like to say we're leading out the nation, not just in politics, but also in the White House. So happy to be here. Yeah. All right. Let me, I have to ask you a little bit about. about, are we going to war? What's happening?

Is this negotiation? What does your gut tell you on this? My gut is telling me that we're not intervening and based on the president's statement. He is still rightfully so urging everyone to negotiate. Right now, and he's definitely been very open about this post, but I don't want to speculate. What I will tell you is that in the last 24 to 48 hours,

I've seen so much disinformation circulating on the Internet. A lot of it not even coming from sources here in the United States. And so what I will tell everyone is that don't jump to conclusions, don't read into anything that Senator Lindsey Graham is saying or any other members of Congress that are speculating that there is going to be direct intervention. In fact, the White House just yesterday via Alex Bifera on X posted that the military is not intervening that we're just simply defending our own. And so what I will tell Americans is first and foremost,

President Trump has not changed his position on foreign. policy. If he wanted to strike, he would have done it by now. So everyone needs to pray for him, pray for our country, pray for the civilians in both Iran and Israel right now, and let the process play out. Can you tell me, do you think it's a red line to send over a bomber with, you know, one bomb? Is that, does that drag us into war, or is that just helping? I would say, as of right now, we need to not speculate, but continue to back the White House. position because I think that if I were speculate on where the red line is, I don't think that it helps.

And I do think that our allies and adversaries are looking to see what members of Congress are doing. And so I'm going to back the White House's position currently, which is defending our service members and not intervening, not intervening at the moment. I'm so glad to hear you to say that. That is exactly what I just said on the air just about three minutes ago. Yeah, I said, the world is watching. You don't think the mullahs over there watching everything.

said on X. I said, you know, we didn't used to have these conversations where it was global. We're now in a global atmosphere. And they're watching all of us. And we can't eat ourselves up. Or they'll, you know, if he's telling the truth, you know, I think a good negotiator never bluffs. So, you know, he has to back it up. You know, 60 days, you don't want to see what happens on day 61. Well, he wasn't bluffing. And if they think that we are eating ourselves, alive, they're more likely to go, no, you know what? Go ahead. Go ahead. It's a really bad thing. Well, what I will say is it's definitely a litmus test for our country right now. You're seeing a lot of people, again, jumping to conclusions. And what I will tell you is that there's only a very select

few that fully understand what's happening in the situation room. That's the president, his team, and a select other few. But what I will tell you is don't read in, don't over speculate. And also, too, don't jump to the conclusions. Just again, in the last 48 hours, I went on line, I put out a statement because I saw so much disinformation circulating. And, you know, this comes amid something that was out to say by Cash Patel, that the CCP has engaged in basically election engineering. You just saw that in the 2020 election cycle. They just got busted.

This also comes on the tail end of these riots that are absolutely being funded by the CCP, Neville Singham, getting a loss of money from them. And then it isn't just, you know, stopped there. We just saw that there was an agro terrorist attack from China. So what I would say is that, you know, I'm partially inclined to think that some of these bought accounts that are attacking the president, our foreign policy positions right now, are coming from China amidst everything else that we're seeing. This is, you know, three times now that we're seeing that they've done things. And so we have to stick together. It's not, you know, Democrat versus Republican right now.

It's America and fighting for Western civilization. And so we need to make sure that we are very responsible about our commentary right now. Very good. Very good. So can we talk a little bit about, um, the, let's start with Neville Syngham. The guy is, he is an operative for the CCP, and he is pouring tons of money, and no one in the mainstream media wants to talk about it. They just, they keep, oh, that's ridiculous.

No, it's not. Can you give us some information on him? Yeah, of course, so it's not ridiculous. In fact, there's a lot of money trails that leave back to Neville Singham, and I actually will give credit words to do so. I was on X and came across this account called Data Republican, and she actually pulled the money trails tying right to Singham. He also lives part-time in Shanghai, China, and he's not registered as a foreign agent. And so I was able to talk to Comer, and every single member of oversight after seeing the evidence that was presented actually sent the letter signed off on it, not just to Neville Singham, but also to A.G. Bondi to also request an investigation.

And so what I will tell you is, you know, this should have been done during BLM in Congress back then. was not. This needs to be replicated moving on forward with everyone else that is engaging who's not a registered foreign agent in this country. Also funding riots like this, which, you know, in some instances have been acts of terrorism. You've been seeing that. And so right now, it's not just a playbook for Neville Singham. We're also, and this is up to Comer because Comer has subpoena authority, whether or not he's going to be sending a subpoena to George Soros, which I've urged him to do. We know that even though Neville Singham is a Marxist, that Soros is a glorious. That source is a globalist, but their end objective is, again, to dismantle the United States. And so we're basically

being hit from both sides right now. I am so, it is so refreshing. I mean, I've been talking about this stuff for 20 years, and it is so refreshing finally to have some people, you know, step up and, and present this in a credible way in Congress and to the Attorney General, et cetera, et cetera. You know, you had the playbook from 1983 from the CIA, and this is, you know, I think it was two or three years ago. No, it was in 2019 or 2020. I did a special on the, you know, the color revolutions and how there was the CIA playbook that was out. And it looks exactly like what is happening here in the United States. And I said, at the time,

here's what's coming and it's all here. Where are you taking this and is there anybody, you know, that can stop this? Because this, we are, we're using CIA tactics on ourselves. Well, I would say the CCP is using this against us right now. Just first and foremost, yes, we can stop it. We have to go after the money stream. And I actually also found out via the doubt Republican that 2007, $70 million in USAID funds was issued to George Doris NGOs prior to Biden getting out of office.

President Trump can stop that. So I sent a letter requesting it via executive order because Congress is moving very slow. That's, I think, a separate conversation. But either which way, we can stop the money streams. And if we don't do anything, though, right? If we don't do the investigations, if we don't say, you cannot do this in our country, you are also, by the way, guilty of violating foreign agent registration, the Foreign Agent Registration Act, the FAR Act.

It's just going to continue happening. So we have to do the due diligence on this. And it's not just me. Every single member of oversight signed off on it. And to Chairman Comer's credit, he will be playing ball with Singham. So it's going to happen. It's just when will it happen, right? So the timeline, the clock was initiated on Friday.

And we're waiting for his response. He's going to be called to testify. We are looking at all transaction records. So that's the first thing. The second thing is, is I want to give some people hope. I actually know Director Radcliffe and over at the CIA. And the CIA back then, remember, there's both good and bad people at these intelligence agencies. And to President Trump's credit, the people that he has appointed actually are people like you and I.

And so they are doing their best to lead out the systemic corruption at these agencies. And so what's been really brilliant in all this is that Cash Patel is also following up on these money trails to see what outside foreign influences are engaged. in this color revolution here in the United States. And he's dropping that information now. So in previous administrations, this might not have happened, but in this one, they are stopping it. And it's because of social media, kudos to Elon Musk, that we were able to get out the information in time in regards to the No Kings protest, who is funding that in regards to potential insider attacks that we're going to frame, you know, conservatives frame Republicans.

We're seeing all of this stuff fold out in real time. So the American people are waking up. And I will tell you that Hispanic Americans specifically do not like being used as pawns. So when you have basically BLM 2.0 happening right now with these ICE riots, and you realize that these are actually largely Antifa that are being bust in, they're white, they're not Hispanic, they're not immigrants. They have no ties to the community. And they're simply inserting, you know, Mexican flags where BLM flags went.

That doesn't go well in the community. Remember, Hispanic Americans are largely voted in favor for President Trump. So there is hope, but you just can't sit on your hands. You have to get active. you have to get engaged and I keep telling people that. You know, I've been, for years, I've been angry at the billionaires on the right that just have not stepped to the plate. But I really, I suspected with the Tides Foundation and then with Biden and all of these green new deals and everything else that was going on, that money was being funneled off the top. And then soon as we appointed Doge, I'm like, oh my gosh, the money is coming from us.

And then he started to find it. That is so critically important. Are we going to stop that funding? Well, yes, and so that's what we've been doing with some of these rescission packages that the White House is authorized, but we have to move quickly and we have to be more aggressive with it. I will tell you, though, remember, like, I think just in general, sometimes people can be lazy. And so what I've been telling people is you have no idea the level of personal sacrifice that Elon really took on from taking on Doge and doing it, especially going after USAID, which was literally just like a pot of just corrupt nonsense.

He actually just released, as we were, I think, like, about to call in to this, he released drug testing results. He had himself drug tested because they were saying that he was, you know, doing all this crazy stuff. And he wasn't, right? They've attacked his companies. They've attacked his reputation. They've literally used his personal family matters in the press.

And then they tried to drive a wedge between him and the president. So what I will tell you is, you know, it's not just him. It's any member of Congress or Senate, you saw what happened with the president. They tried to assassinate him twice. Okay, so if you take this on, the American people need to back these people up because it's not like we're taking it on because we, you know, want to have our personal lives and our familyhood, you know, put on the line here. It's because it's the right thing to do.

And if we don't do it, who will. And so you really, really have to make sure that right now everyone is sticking together. remember look out for the disinformation campaigns and keep supporting people they're doing the right thing because we need more of them congresswoman anna polina luna thank you and i appreciate it god bless you thanks fun you bet we'll talk again i really like her i i think she's i think she's just i think she's great yeah she's great she's just right on the ball. Yeah. And it is good. And I have to say, you know, for all of the work that we did for so long, now, Data Republican is in with, you know, technology and with the ability that we have through AI and everything that we got through from Elon Musk, she's actually able to put all of

the receipts of our government in play. And I think she's done more to, save the Republic than most people, quite honestly. I think she is a remarkable, remarkable American. That's a data Republican. If you don't follow her an X, you should. All right, just a second. First, let me tell you about good ranchers.

take your phone calls next hour. I'm going to all the wall-to-wall phone calls at 888-727B. CK, I want to hear your voice on what you think about what's happening with the Middle East and Iran and Israel and what's happening on X and Twitter and everybody tearing themselves apart and it's crazy. But I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Something I really want to comment on is the singer Neza singing the national anthem in Spanish at the Dodgers game. She was told not to. The reason why she was told not to is because, obviously,

Los Angeles is on fire right now. And they thought that that might, you know, spark some more emotions. And so she got up after being told not to. And here she is at the Dodgers game. Okay. Play the actual singing, please. Okay, so she did a nice rendition. It was great.

It was in Spanish. She's right. it was commissioned by Roosevelt, 1944, 45 during the time of the World War and we were trying to bring everybody onto the same page

in Latin American because many of them had started, you know, Argentina comes to mind, was starting to, you know, fall to the Axis powers. And so we, you know, they sent Disney down there and they did all kinds of things

for Latin America to try to bring them into a more of American circle. So that's the reason for it. And she said that, you know, Roosevelt commissioned this. And so why can't I do it? I was doing it. I felt I had to do it with everything that's going on, quote, for my people. Who are your people? Who are your people? I mean, your people should be Americans. You know, you can say, I'm, I'm in love with all people, but, you know, this is your country? Or is it not your country? You know, one thing that Roosevelt was very against was hyphenated Americans. And we've hyphenated ourselves into everything, so we're nothing anymore.

I mean, you know, you have a right to do whatever you want in America. That's not your baseball stadium, so I hope they'd ever ask you again. You know, you show respect to the people who invited you. That's my personal opinion. And show respect to the people in the United States. They are your people. They are your people. You're Glenn Beck.

Let me tell you about the burner launcher. You know the old line, don't bring you a night. to a gunfight, right? That's a terrible idea. But, you know, you need to bring something to the game always, and you don't want to be armed to the teeth, per se. In some states, they won't even let you. You bring the burn a launcher.

It looks and feels like a firearm, but it fires powerful kinetic and pepper and tear gas projectiles, not bullets. It's non-lethal. It doesn't require a background check or a permit. It stops a threat fast. You can bring it to just about any fight because it gives you the chance to defend yourself

without having to take a life and without legal headaches that last longer than the danger ever did. And it is legal in all 50 states. They'll ship it right to your door. No permit, nothing, nothing. You just have to be over 18. When seconds count, you want a Berna launcher. The hardest decision you'll ever make.

I want to hear from you on the phones. 888-727 B-E-C-K. I want to know how you're feeling about what is happening. You know, Twitter is not the real world, obviously. And if you see what's

happening on X, I mean, everybody is throwing each other under a bus. us. I mean, I disagree with some of my friends. I disagree at times with Ben Shapiro. I disagree at times with Tucker Carlson. I disagree with the president. I tell them. We have nice conversations about it and we go away and we understand we don't have to tear each other apart. It's the worst thing that we can do right now. I'd like to have a logical conversation with you on what you think because I don't think we're all that far apart. I really don't. We'll go to the phones here in just a Second, 8 at 8-8-727, B-E-C-K. First, let me tell you about Lear Capital.

Almost certainly, we're not about to see anything really, you know, fantastic if world breaks out into war. The world is a mess. Global alliances are shifting. Major powers are arming up. The economy feels like it's being held together by bubblegum and Bible verses, you know, but I'm sure it's fine. It's fine. It's fine, probably.

But in case it's not fine, may I suggest, you think about what your money is, to because paper currencies don't tend to hold up well in times of global unrest, either do stocks or digital bucks or wishful thinking. But gold? Gold has been through every single war, every recession, every collapse, every rebuilding, and it's still standing every single time since biblical days. And let me ask you, that's a pretty good track record. Can you beat that track record with anything else?

You want to make sure you've worked so hard for that retirement money. Please don't put it all into paper. Please. Lear Capital, you know,

just in case probably, you know, probably turns into, oh no, probably fine, oh no, that can happen overnight. Please call Lear Capital today at 800-957 gold, 800-957 gold. Find out how Lear Capital can help you with your retirement account, Lear Capital. 800-957 gold. All right. Let me go right to Sam and Pennsylvania. Hi, Sam. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Glad you've been on. And thank you so much for waiting. Go ahead. Hey, Glenn. Yeah, I don't know about this war in Iran. The reason I don't think that it's a great idea is because it doesn't matter how. we send weapons over there. The moment an American soldier is killed,

there's automatic justification for us to go in, boots on the ground, drones, full-blown, and have we not learned any for the past 20 years? Yeah, I don't think so. We're going to ask the father's PTSD to send their children to go fight war. I have one suggestion, and this is probably the best things my father has ever done since father's age just has passed, and my father's birthday is on Friday. When 9-11 happened, I was a senior,

and as a senior, I was very patriotic as to going and donating blood. I grew up in in Saddlebrook, Saddlebrook, New Jersey, in Bergen County, which is 20 minutes from New York City. And I knew I had friends whose parents passed in the Twin Towers. And to eventually find out that we were lied into that war by Benjamin Netanyahu, and now we're going to be lied into another war by Benjamin Nyingai. Wait, wait, wait, wait, how were we lied into? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. How were we lied into 9-11?

What did Benjamin Netanyahu have to do with the World Trade Center bombings? No, we were lied into war. Well, no. The World Trade Center, the World Trade Center, hold on, hold on just a second. Hold on just a second. The World Trade Center bombings happened. We decided as a nation to go after Afghanistan. What role did Benjamin Netanyahu play?

with George Bush, you know, before he gave that speech in Congress just a few days later, that we were going to war and we were going to track down these people. What role did Benjamin Netanyahu play? They fed us the wrong intel and told us that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, and they never did. Yeah, that's long after 9-11, many multiple years after 9-11. We were in Afghanistan when that happened. And it turned out to be a huge lie.

Yeah, I know. And I don't blame that on, it's really weird. I don't necessarily blame that in Netanyahu. It's interesting that you need to. I blame that on our own administration. I blame that on the people who actually went in front of the American people and said, I mean, do you think that they're so stupid the American intel? They're so stupid that they just got a call from Benjamin Netanyahu.

and he was like, look, this is what's going on. You've got to go to war? And they went to war? You really think that they were duped by Benjamin Netanyahu? Glenn, I think you know and I know that that did not happen where they just got a call from Benjamin and Yahoo out of nowhere. I think you know that that's true, right? I think that you also know that I think you also know that the Israeli government

and the Israeli lobby have a lot to do. do with us having to pay for everything that Israel does. Do you know we're currently in a 10-year plan to give Israel $30 billion, more than $30 billion in aid? My gosh. And that's the only country we're doing that in. That's the only country we're doing it. That's weird. You know, it's weird that you have a problem. Tell me the other, name the other country that we're giving more than $30 billion to over the next 10 years. Name it. Name one. I want you to name one. You're going to let me finish or no?

No, I'm going to ask you, because you have no credibility, if you cannot name another country. Name one. Germany. Okay. Now, why is it you have a problem with Israel? See, because I have a problem with us giving money to all of these countries. Sure. Why is it?

Israel as well, because Israel is all. only one that's getting us into a war. I don't see Germany getting us into a war. I don't see Australia getting us into a war. How is Australia? How about how about this one? How about Ukraine? How about Ukraine? How about France? I'm asking how is France getting us into a war? How is France getting us into war right now? NATO is pushing us to get into war with Russia. You don't see that? Come on. I know you see that. Sam, I know you see that. Glenn, I've watched your, let me just finish by saying I watched your show for more than 20 years. I watched you from like way back in a day when you were on Fox and you were a long time ago.

I can't even remember how long, Glenn. I love you. Even though I probably disagree with you 95% of the time, you're fun to watch. I like listening to you every so often. and I honestly wish, I honestly wish that we would look past, you know, money or territory or, you know, money that corporations might end up, will end up getting because that money, whatever money that we're trying to, you know, is not going to the American government, to the American people, to anybody, right? I have 100% agree. We really think about the people because whether they're, whether they speak of different language or they, they worship a different God, there's kids over there.

There's mothers over there. There's pregnant. I know. There's pregnant. Women over there who want to be born, who want their kids to be born. And that's in every single country, Sam. That's in every single country. So I agree with all your platitudes.

I do. And I respect you, Sam. I thank you for listening and everything else. And I respect you. And I agree with your platitudes. Let me ask you one question. Do you think I'm for war? He hung up.

Because I'm not for war, Sam. I'm not for war. I'm not for war in Israel. I'm not for America getting involved in Israel. I have made myself very clear. I'm a big supporter of Israel. I kind of have a nose for anti-Semitism, which is strangely new anti-Semites. I don't know if you're a new anti-Semite or not, you sound like it.

New anti-Semites don't have any idea that they're anti-Semitic. They have no idea. They've just slowly been boiled in this water. But I'm not for going in and sending a single soldier in, not for it. I'm not for sending any kind of money to any other country. But I don't start my cuts with, what did he say, $30 billion in Israel? I don't know. I might start with the $200 billion that we sent to Ukraine. I might start with, you know, the gender studies we're doing in Bolivia. I mean, there's a lot of money.

There's a lot of money. Starting with the most pro-American country in the Middle East, and let me count all of them. There's one. Okay, there's one country in the Middle East that is pro-American. Everybody else is on this, ah, you know, I really like you, but I still am going to behead all the Christians. I don't start with that country. But if you want to do them all at the same time, I'm with you. I'm with you. I'm with you.

I don't want war. I don't want to fight Israel's war. I'm not foregoing into Israel. I'm not for going into Iran. I'm not for anything you sound like you think I'm for. I was just trying to understand, and I appreciate you're a fan, and like you said, we don't agree on very much of anything. Apparently not, but I appreciate you listening and calling in.

We don't necessarily disagree on anything other than perhaps just a touch of anti-Semitism. because I think the only ones that lied to us, I mean, Israel could have lied to us. Germany might have lied to us. Everybody could have lied to us. Everybody has their own, you know, acts to grind. What you're saying about Benjamin Netanyahu is that we're either too stupid to know that,

that if he called and said, you know, I got to tell you, as a Jew, I run the world, you've got to do this. that we're too stupid to see past anything like that or we just take people's word that, nope, that's the way it is, and the most powerful intelligence agency in the world just goes along with it. No, and if it is, my problem is not with the foreign government

because the foreign government, you don't think we tell people around the world what we want them to believe in our intelligence, intelligence briefings. Of course we tell them that stuff because it's in our best interest. If you're a country and you're listening and taking the word of another country and you haven't checked it yourself, well, the problem is not with the other country because that's what all other countries do. The problem is with your country. The people George Bush, the people who were running the CIA, the people who are still running the CIA in the

the State Department. That's who your issue should be with. Not the leader of a foreign country who you say duped us. Well, then we're morons. And if we weren't duped, then what

is your implication here? Your implication is they just take orders from their Zionist masters? No. They suck. That's why. They lie to us and they suck. That's why there is no trust. And the worst thing you can do is turn your anger onto a scapegoat. You don't turn your anger on

a scapegoat. You know whose problem it is? No. Yeah, I know whose problem it is. Ours, because we elected people who have been lying to us and we continue to elect those people. You know why everybody's so upset about all of this today? They're upset about this because you don't know who to trust. Now, why don't we know who to trust? Because you've been lied to over and over again. I got on today and I said a prayer before I went on, please, Lord, let me do no damage on this. Please let me do no damage. I don't know what's, I don't know who's lying and who's not. I can tell you who I trust because I'm out of people to trust. If I don't trust the president of the United States, then who do I trust? Who do I trust?

If he's somehow another duped, co-opted, an enemy of the state, he's betrayed us. Who do you trust? The answer is no one. No one is left. And that leads to, what was his name? Oh, Robespierre. That leads to the guillotine. You betrayed the revolution.

That's exactly what happened in France. And don't you think that Russia, China, Iran, of course our Zionist masters, anybody who wishes us ill, isn't licking their chops to see us destroy ourselves. You're in a place where you have to make a real choice. You have to trust someone. And that doesn't mean blind trust. That doesn't mean, look, if I'm wrong about Donald Trump, I will be the first to him. I've done it before.

been there done it i'm probably the america's biggest professional at saying when i'm wrong about donald trump so if don't trump is pulling the wool over my eyes well i will be the first to a minute and i'll stand right with the people and say yeah you know what he is becoming a dictator i don't believe he is i don't believe he's changed his position on war he hates it he always has hated it he always has it. I've had a conversation with him personally, one-on-one about nuclear war. That guy is terrified of nuclear war, and rightly so. He said to me, Glenn, I rebuilt our nuclear arsenal. You don't want to know what we can do. This should never, ever be used. If there's a war and it goes global, it will go nuclear and we're all dead. Do you really think that he doesn't get that? Do you

really think the Mossad is going to talk him out of it? No one can talk Donald Trump out of anything. You started the conversation with, I'm against this war. Well, so am I, our participation in it. I am against that. But that's not what is on the table today. That's what people are thinking. But that's not what's on the table. What's on the table right now is negotiation. I wish I wouldn't have been so cross with you when you called in. I just am a little sensitive about what's happening with anti-Semitism in our own streets. And quite honestly, people who are fans of mine. Back in just a minute.

Every 4th of July, I find myself thinking less and less about the fireworks and more and more about what the explosions in the skies are supposed to represent. Freedom isn't a given. It's not something you just have. something you have to protect and that starts at home. If you think the world is stable, what is wrong with you? Seriously, what is wrong with you? Oh, we've been here before. No, no, not like this.

Not like this. We've had each of these problems one time or another, but we've never had all of them at once. So, you know, you want to just say, oh, well, I can just go along because the world's always going to be like it is. Go find another show. But if you would like to at least consider reality, I mean, I think this is real thing with Iran. I really believe this is the beginning of the final battle.

It might take us 40 years to get there, but I think this one ends with Christ coming. Now, I hope to God, I pray I'm wrong. But are you telling me that's not a possibility? Jesus isn't right around the corner? Yeah, everything's going to be fine. I don't need to prepare. Start with your spirit and then look at your pantry.

Let's try, let's try this again. We'll go to the phones in just a moment at 888. 727 BCK. Was I reading too much into that, Pat? No, I don't think so. Probably won't. Also, it's worth mentioning maybe. Ariel Sharon was the prime minister of Israel when 9-11 rolled around.

So I don't even know what Benjamin Netanyahu had to do with that. Kind of strange. Well, he was the Zionist master for Ariel Sharon. We all know that. He was a puppet master. And don't worry about George Soros. Yeah, George Soros, he hasn't doing anything. Nah.

How dare you bring his name up? you anti-semi? Wow. Okay. Let me tell you about rough greens. You know, I used to think dog food was, well, you know, dog food. You scoop it, you pour it, they eat it. End of story, right?

That's until I had about a full-fledged revolution on my hands with my dog, Uno. He just wouldn't eat. He wouldn't eat. And if you've ever read the ingredients on a bag of kibble, and I mean really, really read them, you start to wonder, how is my dog even living at this point? Basically, it's a canine equivalent of, you know, 3 a.m. gas station burritos every single meal. I don't know. I think my teeth would have fallen out, you know, if I were doing that every day. This, Rough Greens is not a replacement for dog food. It's a nutritional boost.

It's a powder packed with vitamins, minerals, probiotics, enzymes. The stuff your dog was actually designed to thrive on. I saw a huge difference in my dog. He had more energy. He ate better than before. Even had some of the happiest and healthiest years of his life after that. years I wouldn't trade with uno and rough greens did make that difference call them now 214 rough dog or go to rough greens.com it's 214 rough dog or r ufffgreens dot com discount code beck it's rough greens.com Glenn Beck stew Steve dace Jason Whitlock and me pack Gray listen to all your favorite conservative voices blaisTV.com promo code Glenn

welcome to the Glenn Beck program we're glad that you're here Oh, wow. Okay. You know, let me just, let me just point out that, you know, we're giving $30 billion, which is a lot of money, $30 billion to Israel over the next 10 years, according to this last caller. Yes. Do you know that in 2024, we almost gave a billion dollars in one year, a billion dollars to the Taliban? To the Taliban. we have given them about $5 billion between $3 and $5 billion since 2021. When we left, why are we doing that? I said to the president, you should cut that $8. Get Bagram Air Force base back. You want to give that aid? Then we're taking that back.

It's costing you $5 billion. We're taking it back. I mean, we shouldn't pay for any of it. We should just take bag, um, bag, um, back. We built that. It's strategic. What did we just leave it for? And now we're giving them extra money.

But we don't start with that one, do we? We don't, we don't talk about that, I guess, no. Okay. Well, whatever. Um, all right, let me go to, uh, Joseph in Texas. Hello, Joseph. How are you? I'm fine, Glenn.

Thank you for this opportunity to have a conversation with you. And thank you for letting you for letting me. that anti-Semite expose himself. Okay, I'm glad it wasn't just me. All right, go ahead, Joseph. Yeah, listen, I want to congratulate you on giving Donald Trump all the trust that he should be given. The majority of the people in the United States think they can trust him, too.

As far as calling this a war on our part, it's not a war. It's Israel's war. What we're going to be involved with is a very limited military action as Donald Trump has done in the past, he was going to do again in Iran. And when we drop those moabs down on that nuclear site that Israel can't get to, it'll be the end of it. He's not going to let us get involved in a protracted war with Iran or anyone else. But he is going to do exactly what Pete Hegsath said.

We're doing with our military. We're going to bring it back to being lethal and overpowering, and we're going to get out. So I don't think you need to worry about that, Glenn, and you should, as you are, keep supporting Donald Trump and his decision because, like you said, you aren't going to change his mind. And he is put in place by a higher power, and he's going to do what's right. And we need to support Israel without any reservation whatsoever. Yeah, I don't want to fight any of Israel's wars. And I worry about not the red line.

I see your case on dropping the Moab and just in and out. and it's just a limited strike. And we would have been doing that by ourselves anyway. If Israel wasn't there, we would have to do it. But the rest of the world will look at that, you know, our enemies will look at that as an act of war. All of the anybody who is on the side of Iran and all of the, you know, Hezbollah, Hamas, the Palestinian movement, all that, they will, absolutely, that will be enough for them to say that was an American war as well. They're going to say it anyway. My only hesitation on that one, Joseph, is A, how are we going to play that and stay out of the war?

Will that make things worse? They're already bad. We're going to fight it in the street anyway in Europe and the rest of the world at some point. But also, do we really know that, I mean, I kind of like, I'd really like Israel to finish the job themselves and then, you know, go in once the job, once these guys are out, then go in and see, I don't want to destroy the evidence on whether or not they had a, you know, bomb-making capabilities. Because honestly, I don't trust, I don't trust anybody on it, you know. Tulsi Gabbard just said, do we have that clip of her from a couple of weeks ago or a couple of

months ago where she was like, no, they're not making a bomb? Listen to this. This is Tulsi Gabbard. The IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon, and Supreme Leader Kameney has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003. The IC continues to monitor closely if Tehran decides to reauthorize its nuclear weapons program. Hang on, I got to look that up. The IC, is that the, do we know? Is that the, that's the international community that's like the UN, the IPCC, I think. Is that an arm of that? Because I don't trust those guys either.

And that's not us saying it then, unless that's our own intelligence community, our intelligence community. You know, so they've been saying, I mean, I've heard it from presidents, you know, Glenn, we are days away from them having a boss. Really? Because I heard that from George Bush. I heard that from, you know, all of the people that were talking about it under Barack Obama. I heard it, you know, again from John Bolton, like a clock, you know, every 15 seconds. They got a nuke. They got a nuke.

I don't know what to believe. I really don't know what to believe. Let me go to Al in Florida. Hello, Al. Welcome. Hey, Glenn. Thanks for taking my call. So unlike Sam, unlike Sam, I'm an actual fan, as in every day.

So much so that I have my burner launcher on my side while I'm pulling you on pictures of and sprinkling her upgrades on the cereal I got from Patriots. What a guy. What a guy. Thank you. Thank you. Truly, truly, I am, my friend. And on a serious note, the call from Jennifer just rip my heart out.

Would you mind if we just said a little prayer for 30 seconds? Go ahead. Sweet Lord Jesus Christ, reign your blessing and your compassion down on our heroes and give them the peace and tranquillity. to live with what we ask them to do. We say that in your holy name. Amen. Amen. Thank you. So, Al, where do you stand on this whole thing?

I asked earlier today, you know, are the Persian people, not the Iranian, the Persian people, is this a Poland situation, or is this just another Afghanistan and Libya? I have to tell you, then, the way I feel about it. I'm going to preface it with a little bit of funny stuff. happen to have a conservative radio show on a podcast like our friend pat says every human being on the planet has a podcast the amoeba and where did he say paducaa kansas yes has a podcast has a podcast i come out this way first of all my my theory about what american foreign policy has always been has been that we have gone into a den of lions the first thing we do kill the lion tamer

That's Saddam Hussein. You name it. Right? That's what we do. This situation seems to me to be the reverse. Now, again, cautiously, I am not a warmonger by any means. I support President Trump. I voted for him.

My show was dedicated to getting him elected. So the reason is he's getting us out of wars. But if something does not have teeth, Glenn, they will pick it up. meaning our enemies. So when we talk about the Moab, okay, you know, knowing our great president, and as you stated, I mean, there's really not much that someone can say that you have not already surmised because, you know, you guys are great, and that's why I listen to you religiously. But the Moab is kind of that scarecrow, because now 61 days, Israel did their thing. The Ayatollah now is saying, well, what's next? And if the president says,

you know, I tell that we're going to have to send that malware above, right? Do you think that knowing our president and that he does not bluff, that they're not going to toss us the keys to that underground facility? They may not. They may not. The only thing, the only thing that concerns me about this is because, I mean, President Trump has established credibility with our enemies. he doesn't bluff especially with with Iran however you're not dealing with rational people I mean they're not afraid of death they welcome death because they believe it will start the

end times clock you know wash the world in blood so these are you can't deal reasonably with unreasonable with unreasonable people you can hopefully scare them into into, you know, acting the way you want to. But I don't know how they're going to react. I mean, I don't think anybody does. But I think you're right. That's exactly what I think the president is doing. Ken, at least I hope he is, Ken in Ohio.

Hello, Ken. Hello. Hi. Go ahead. Hi, John. It's an honor to speak with you today. Thank you, sir. As far as I ran, no, I don't believe we should ever have troops ever again

anywhere in the Middle East because all that comes out is death on American soldiers. And that's what. But I do believe Israel has done a wonderful job, getting rid of stuff, but the one nuclear reactor that they can't get, we need to take it out. Now, if Trump can get some kind of deal, which I don't take faith in, to me, it's delayed, not a deal. Even in the deal, we take out that nuclear reactor. And we make sure that Iran knows if any of our soldiers or anything in the Middle East gets attacked, we will come to you. I don't understand why we never have King of Iran when all the other places attack, because the orders come from Iran. I know.

they wouldn't do it. I know. That's, Ken, that's what I was talking about in 2004 and five under George Bush. What are we doing? What are we doing? We're not addressing the real problem. I was hoping, you know, little Pollyanna on this. I was hoping that that's what George Bush was trying to do without sending in, you know, troops to Iran was to hit them on both sides and then pop them from the inside. But then when people rose up, they, you know, we never helped them. Craig in Florida, hello, Craig. Hello, thanks for having me on. Hey, I'm retired Navy. And I spent some time in the battle group with Prang Mantis.

You remember that one? I do. Okay, good. So that might bias my comments here. But I think that the people of Iran to Persia, they need our help. We do need to help. And I get the arguments on what could happen after, where you just stated a few minutes ago, that even if we don't do anything or those enemies are still not going to like us. And by not do anything, they could hate us and spread just as much.

So the chance to take out that government or at least let the people of Iran take out that government could be seen on many levels as a very good thing against an evil group. So I agree with you. And by the way, thank you for your help in operations. praying mantis if you don't know what it is you should look it up but uh i i will tell you i i don't think we have to go to war on that i i you know there is so many things that we can do look at what what look at what look at what pope john paul margaret thatcher and ronald regan did uh to the soviet union they took it down we never fired a bullet we never launched a missile we did nothing

we supported the people uh of poland and hungry and all around um you know this This is, there are really good people, unlike Libya and every place else. These are people that understand Western values. Iran used to be very much like Israel is today, very open, very Western. You know, they weren't killing, they weren't killing people. You know, they weren't killing homosexuals and silencing women and putting them in Burkas. It was very open and very, it was Israel. If there's a chance to get another Israel-like nation in there,

I personally think we should be helping them out on the ground in any way, you know, not military. I mean, this is what we do for the love of Pete. Why have we never done that in a place where it makes more sense than any place else? But hopefully, you know, that is happening with somebody. is helping the people stand. All right, our sponsor this half hour,

somewhere right now, a young woman is sitting all by herself. She is staring at a positive pregnancy test, and she's thinking, my life is over, what am I going to do? She's not evil. She doesn't want to kill children.

She's just scared. In a world that makes abortion feel like, you know, the strong choice, she may never hear another voice say, no, no, no, no, you can do this. You're not alone. And that life inside of you is worth protecting.

This is where Preborn comes in. They don't shame her. They don't lecture her. They just show her the truth. A free ultrasound, a sound of a heartbeat. And in that moment, something changes. She sees the baby she's caring and frequently, about half the time, double the chances of life. As abortion numbers continue to rise, preborn is expanding their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of our nation.

And they're doing it to help more hurting women and save more babies and moms. If you have the means, would you consider a leadership? gift to save babies in a big way. I mean, $28 is one ultrasound, but if you want, you know, if you have $15,000, that will place a machine in a needy women's shelter, saving countless lives for years to come. Donate.

Can't believe he used to be a top 40 disc jockey. But anyway, we still love him. Glenn Beck, we'll be right back.

Biennue at board of Viarai. Embarked and profite. Embarked and relax. Cirotay. Bookine. Oh, that also. And profite. Viarai, the voice that we love that we love.

Thank you so much for listening today. Thank you for calling in. I'm sorry we couldn't get to all of the phone calls. We'll probably take more tomorrow. I'm also on tomorrow's Wednesday night special on The Blaze. at 9 o'clock, I'm taking you into really some dark places on what all of this means from the streets of Gotham to the final battle. I think we are in it. And I'm going to show you the choices that are really truly in front of us.

We have now cartooned villains running on our streets. It's insane. It is becoming as insane as Gotham in some of our cities. And that is the plan for the whole country. And I know you don't want that, but most people just don't understand. This is where you are now. This is the next step. You're not dealing with Democrats anymore.

You're not even dealing with just the crazies. You're dealing almost with Batman-style characters on the streets that just want to see things burn. And we then go to Israel. I believe this is the beginning. It might take us 40 years to get through it. I don't think so, but I believe this is the beginning. You're seeing the beginnings on our streets in Iran and everything else. You're seeing the beginning of the final battle.

And that is our topic on tomorrow's TV show. Don't miss it. This is Glenn Beck.
