The Glenn Beck Program - 'Fund the Damn TSA!' Glenn EXPLODES on DC 'Pinheads' | Guest: Sen. Rick Scott | 3/24/26

Episode Date: March 24, 2026

Are America's guardrails holding? Glenn discusses how the safeguard of a free society doesn't lie in laws, leaders, or institutions, but in individuals who choose truth and courage. Glenn also gives an update on Iran and the looming threat of a global energy crisis. Is President Trump "chickening out," according to his online critics? Glenn explains what he believes Trump is doing regarding Iran. Glenn calls out Congress for using TSA workers' paychecks as leverage. In a story that united the world, Glenn discusses the group of dogs that escaped certain death and united together to make it back to their homes after being taken to be slaughtered in China. Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) joins to discuss the status of the partial government shutdown as Democrats refuse to fund the DHS, at the sacrifice of funding TSA agents, putting traveling Americans' safety at risk. Glenn discusses the dangers of believing what you see online, as AI fakes are becoming an epidemic, the latest being a fake video of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Glenn takes calls from his audience about various news stories, including the partial government shutdown and the SAVE America Act.

Also, the California fraud, the Congress is doing investigations, and there's a lot of news out today on the fraud that is happening in California and all across the country. And Democrats are saying that that's just a distraction on more important. things. I would like to ask the Democrats a question, what's a bigger priority to you?

slash Glenn Bexie representative for all the details. California fraud. California fraud. Now, Congress and the and the vice president now in charge of looking at fraud, we are estimating that a third, a third of our budget is going to fraud. A third of our budget. Can you imagine that? You're a household that's having trouble, and you find out that a third of what you're bringing home and spending every month is going to fraud and waste, wouldn't that be the biggest priority? You're barely making it. That would be the biggest priority, wouldn't it? I mean, besides, hey, by the way, we've just let some people move into our house that we have no idea who they are and they might be raping our children at night. That might be a higher priority, but it's pretty high up

there, isn't it? Democrats, I just, I really want to know. I want to know. You say this is a distraction for more important things. What are those more important things? Making sure our elections are secure. How about TSA? You know, we are in a war with the biggest terror country in the world. Maybe we can have a little, you know, Department of Homeland Security or TSA, can we do that?

Do you care about people waiting six hours in line, missing their flights, stopping everything, border security? By the way, FAA couldn't make it up to LaGuardia yesterday. Some didn't arrive until 2 a.m. this morning. Why? Because they were standing in line. Why? Because the Democrats have refused to fund the TSA. I don't know why. By the way, if we had a DHS, maybe we could look into those drones. We don't know where the drones came from, but they were all hovering over one of our biggest nuclear bases. And these weren't stuff you buy at Best Buy. Okay. These are drones. They couldn't shut them down. We have jamming technology. We couldn't jam them. We couldn't jam them. them. Who just sent those drones? Can we look into that? Is anybody looking into that? Do we have? Can we get can we get the Department of Homeland Security on that? Because that seems like that does seem like a big priority, doesn't it, Democrats? Maybe not for you. You know, I look at all of the stories of the day. And I think to myself, I'm so angry. I am so angry all the time. I am so angry. I am so angry.

I am worried about our country. I'm worried about my business. I'm worried about my family. You are too. You're worried about gas prices. You're worried about making the bills every single month. You're shuffling. You've got credit cards that you're juggling.

Everybody's in this. Everybody's in this. You're worried about all kinds of things. And you're on the edge. And you're angry and disenfranchised. and you don't think anybody's listening to you. Oh, man. I want to start there with the way all of us feel,

because I want to show you what happens when a whole society feels that way. Every civilization, every, everyone that's ever risen, everyone that's ever collapsed has been built on the same raw material, us, flawed human beings. Now, every civilization tells stories of, you know, monsters and saints, but generally everybody's just a normal person. Okay.

And we're normal people with predictable weaknesses. You can call them sins. You can call them drives. You can call them personality traits, whatever. But it's just the way nature is. The pattern is as old as we are. Some people are driven by pride. And they need to be seen as, you know,

really, really good people, even when they're not. They need to be seen as successful. Some people are driven by anger, believing that the world has to be corrected, no matter the cost, I'm the one to do it, I'm angry. Some envy. I'm just not able to tolerate somebody having something that I don't have. A lot of people are just motivated by fear. They're so desperate for safety.

trade anything for safety. Others deceit, lying not just to others, but most importantly, to themselves. And then the rest of us kind of fit and sloth, you know what I mean? Not laziness in the physical sense, but just a refusal to engage, to think, to stand. I have somebody else do it, okay? There are nine variations of all of these things that, you know, human, have, but the one reality is we're humans and we're frail. Okay? Well, civilization, everybody thinks civilization is natural. It's not natural. It's not the default setting of

humanity. Chaos is the default setting of humanity. Civilization is an achievement, and it's held together by guardrails, some sort of guardrails or guards. If you don't If you don't have the guards, you have to have the guardrails. And those things restrain all of our weaknesses. And we think it's natural because we've been living in a civilization that has been built over, you know, two millennia. And it grew out of another civilization that was thousands of years older, the Judeo-Christian worldview. Okay. Out of that worldview, we built systems over centuries.

We got it wrong for a long time. We had kings and we had serfs. and we had, you know, barbarians, all of these things. But it grew over time to compensate for what we knew, what was broken in us, how do we hold society together? And we built families to teach values early. We built faith traditions to call us to something higher than ourselves. We built laws to restrain what, you know, that faith guardrail,

sometimes fails to control. We built schools to pass down knowledge. We built a free press so truth could be challenged, you know, with power. We built social norms. We built shame and honor and duty to keep all of our behavior because we're all flawed human beings inside the lines. None of these systems are perfect, not one, but together they form kind of a scaffolding. And all of that scaffolding, listen to me, all of this scaffolding comes from the Judeo-Christian worldview.

And that worldview is now under attack. It's that structure that allowed all of us flawed people to live in relative freedom without destroying one another. It is the miracle of the West. It's not perfection, but it's balanced. And now we are living in a society where there are millions of people that believe that civilization is just, something that just pops up. We can destroy this civilization. And out of that vacuum is going to appear something better and brighter and more enlightened, it's going to be fabulous. Out of what? How? When has that ever happened? What fills a vacuum is whatever is strongest,

fiercest with the biggest club. That's the root of civilization when you don't have. have any principles. So now, we are intentionally targeting all of these guardrails. We're taking them down one by one. One at a time, they're all disappearing. So what happens when truth becomes negotiable? When the press no longer informs, it just persuades. When education stops teaching you how to think and starts telling you what to think. Curiosity is going to die. When faith is hollowed out or mocked, there's no higher authority than just me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me. When the laws are all selectively enforced, what happens? Justice becomes a weapon instead of a shield. Are we not seeing that? When culture stops honoring responsibility, what happens?

Entitlement comes in and fills the vacuum. And then what happens? All those human frailties, they don't disappear. They now are expanding and growing stronger and stronger and stronger. Pride becomes moral superiority. Fear is compliance. Envy is just redistribution by force. Deceit lies.

It's just a narrative. Sloth is disengagement. Millions of people watching but not acting. We're just, I'm too tired. Do you see this pattern? Because history is really clear. When individuals stop compensating for their own weaknesses, they don't just harm themselves, which is another lie that was one of the first ones to start dismantling us. What you do doesn't matter. It does. Because once you start dismantling these things in yourself, you become vulnerable. You're vulnerable to manipulation. You're vulnerable to ideology.

You're vulnerable to anyone who knows how to pull the right lever. And that's not a theory. How do I know that? Have you ever watched a spy movie? Have you ever watched how espionage works? How the mob works. A foreign power. Anybody who wants somebody on the inside that will do their dirty,

work. Who do they go to? How do they find them? Every intelligence agency in the world knows this. They don't recruit spies by accident. They don't recruit spies that are happy with their life. They look for patterns. Find somebody who feels overlooked. Find somebody who is drowning in debt. Find the person that believes they've been wronged by the system. Find the one who just craves importance. Find the one that is afraid. When you're looking for somebody to turn against their own country or whatever it is, they don't create the weakness. They exploit it. Now, take that same principle and scale it from the individual to our entire society. What happens when an entire society millions of people are angry? They're afraid. They're envious. They're disconnected.

from truth. You don't need an invasion. You have the pressure point. And if, and I can't imagine this happening, if someone foreign or domestic knows how to press that pressure point, everything begins to fracture from within. That's how societies fall. And that's what's happening to us right now. Do you not think that Iran, we just, data Republican proof this just, I think it was yesterday or last week. Iran is funding rallies that are happening in our cities. We know that China is doing the same thing. Do you not think that all of our enemies are not involved in our public discourse looking to exploit all of those things, those natural tendencies that Western civilization and all those guardrails used to keep in check? Civilizations are not just

conquered when somebody rolls in, they're compromised first. Look at history. Rome didn't fall because the barbarians were strong. Rome fell because it was weak. Everybody was detached. The institutions were hollowed out. Nobody believed in anything. Its values now, whatever. By the time the gates were breached, the collapse had already happened. Now look around you. Think about how you just felt when I was reading those stories because it's all those things that somebody if they're doing espionage would look for in you and me this is a part that matters not the noise not the daily outrage not the headlines it's a question none of us are asking ourselves i'll give it to you here in 60 seconds first let me tell you about our sponsor the sapphire it's z factor sometimes bad

sleep is easy to fix for instance you go to bed every night sleeping on a bed of nails i mean a simple solution get off the bed of nails dummy i just can't sleep it my bed is just so pointy um usually it's not that obvious i wish it were but it's not you go to bed at a reasonable hour you're not doing anything crazy you're tired when you go to bed and then you just sit there and you stare at the ceiling and you just can't your body is racing or you don't know what's wrong well your body it it it is supposed to naturally do this because it needs a reset the last thing you need to do is put you know better living through pharmaceuticals and, you know, take some of these knockout drugs that, you know, are crazy. Z Factor is a nightly sleep supplement from the makers of Relief Factor, designed to help

your body actually wind down, stay asleep so you're not just getting hours, you're getting real rest. And when sleep starts working the way, it's supposed to be everything else gets a little bit easier. This is all natural. I want you to try it. Just go to Relief Factor. Get a 30-day supply.

Is truth still anchored or is it fluid? Are people being taught to think or just repeat? Are institutions trusted because they're trustworthy or because dissent is punished? Are we becoming more resilient or more easily manipulated? And are we as a

as individual compensating for our own weaknesses or indulging them. Here's the thing I'm trying to remind myself every day. I can blame politicians and there's a lot of blame going to the politicians. I can blame the media and a lot there too. I can blame foreign actors, a lot there. But no system collapses until enough of us stop holding the line inside of ourselves. And that's where this all begins. And that's where it can still be stopped.

A free society doesn't survive because it has perfect leaders. it survives because it has citizens who recognize their own power and their own frailty. And they choose discipline over impulse, truth over comfort, courage over fear. That's the real safeguard here. Not our laws, not our elections. Honestly, not even the Constitution. Those are only as strong as the people who live under them. History's not a mystery.

It's a pattern. And the warning signs are never. hidden. They're all lived every day in the choices that you and I make every single day. So the question isn't whether society's fall. They all do. They all do. The question is, can we recognize the moment we are all in before the fall becomes inevitable? Are we willing to do the hardest thing in a collapsing age? And that is, stop trying to fix the world, fix ourselves. Because that is, where every civilization is either saved or lost. It's people think about this. Who saved the world from fascism? The United States of America? Was it our government? Was it FDR? Or was it our grandparents?

And our great grandparents, they were the ones that went over and fought it. They were the ones that didn't turn into animals afterwards. They're the ones that didn't go on rape gangs after. They could have. Every other country does. Was that, was that our laws or was that our Judeo-Christian values, our civilization that had guardrails and then we were in, we didn't need the guards. Some did, but most of us didn't. We had our own internal guardrails based on those values. We're like, that's not us, man. That's not us. We're losing that. That won't, that will not be passed on to the next generation. It's barely there in those who are 20s and 30s. It doesn't happen naturally. And we have to set the example. That's where we really need to focus. And it's hard

because everything seems to be a distraction. You know, there's a story out that Trump has been tacoed again. What is tacoed mean? Can we stop made up? What does tacoed mean? I'll explain. It's going to hack you off. But then I want to talk to you about the war and answer some questions on the war that I think average people. They're not really talking about this. We keep seeing this black and white footage of things being blown up. Are things getting better or worse? Let me tell you what's really going to affect you. I'll do that next. First, American financing. S182334, NMLS Consumer Access.org. APR for rates in the five, starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers. Call 800906 2440 for details about credit costs and

terms. Freedom comes in a lot of different forms and all of them are important and one of the most important of those forms is financial freedom because when your money is all tied up or you don't have it because a large chunk of your monthly pay is already spoken for before you even start, that changes everything, changes how you and your family live. The decisions you make, the risks you don't take, the options that are just, well, not there. It's exhausting. And a lot of times that just comes down to interest. High interest debt has a way of locking you in a loop where you're always paying but not really getting anywhere. You're doing everything right, but you're just stuck because you're stuck. Well, this is where American financing can really make a difference.

They will help you restructure that debt of your credit cards, lowering your interest rate, reducing your monthly payments and giving you a clearer path forward. Financial freedom doesn't happen all at once. Sometimes it starts with a single change that opens everything. No upfront fees to find out if you qualify. It's Americanfinancing.net. 800906 2440. Get the explosive and bone-chilling torch special Glenn released last week on demand now at Glenbeck.com slash torch. Can't take it. I really can't take it. There's a story. Is this in fortune that Trump is tacoed again? What the hell is taco'd mean? Well, it is Tuesday? Is it Taco Tuesday? Apparently it's Taco Tuesday. Taco means Trump always chickens out.

do these people, I mean, out of all the, you know, I would expect this from, you know, I don't know, the daily beast. But fortune, you don't understand how negotiation works. You don't always get what you want. What are you talking about? He always chickens out. I mean, listen to this. Approximately 7 a.m. Eastern yesterday. Trump posted all caps on true social, U.S. and Iran had very good productive conversations over the weekend towards a complete and total resolution of hostilities in the Middle East.

He ordered the Pentagon to pause all strikes. That came after Trump issued an ultimatum on Saturday night to Iran, calling the regime to reopen the strait over a moose or face bombardment of its power grid. Now it seems he's buying time for the work week. Why are you for the bombing of the power grid? Look at, you just have to ask yourself, when anybody says this, because they go on to say, uh, where is it,

the pattern is seen in his trade. war as he announced prohibitively high tariffs only to reach a deal later. So would you rather have everybody pay these 50% tariffs that he was threatening or negotiate? It played out in Greenland, too. Early Greenland earlier this year when Trump spent weeks threatening to seize the island only to settle for a vague base agreement. Would you rather have had troops go in? What is wrong with you people? You are so deranged. You are so deranged. That's the way negotiation works.

Oh, my gosh. Then they say, we're not even sure who he's negotiating with. Okay, well, we don't either. I mean, Trump has ever he said. I don't know. When he was asked, who's going to replace the idol? He said, I don't know. Everybody we had in mind is dead.

So I don't know who he's negotiating with. And I'm not sure it's going to work either. But is this worth trying? Oh, all right. Let me, let me try to give you some perspective in this because your vacation is coming up. You're going to go, you know, you're going to spend money. If you want to go to, you know, Washington, D.C. And see America's 250 or see the great, you know, the tall ships come into New York or

whatever you want to do this summer. That's going to cost you a lot of money. Are you going to even have the money for gas price going to be? my job as I see it is not to chase the loudest story. I think that's what everybody does is chase the loudest story. My job is to point to the one that's going to reach your kitchen table. That one is going to be important to you. So let me just talk here about Iran and not all the explosions and all of the political turmoil.

Let me just explain what this means. You are not watching a war story here. You are watching a system story. Iran, you know, most Americans don't care about the nukes. Okay, well, Iran has a nuke. And I'm not talking about when they goes and then Godzilla comes out of the sea. I'm talking about the strait of Hormuz. They control 20% of the world's oil and they have just nuked it.

Okay. In the non-literal sense, they have shut down all oil, 20%. We're not dependent on that. but when there is a shortage, then all oil goes up because people are competing to try to buy that oil. All strategic oil reserves, ours, everybody in Europe, everybody all over the world have opened their strategic oil reserves. This is really important. People right now are watching missiles and the airstrikes and the political statements. And then they're going to the stock market and go, I'll sell, sell, sell.

Oh, he said something good. Buy, buy, buy. I mean, it's insane. Because none of this is the most important thing. Those are the headlines. The real story is far more consequential. And it is the global flow of oil that is being disrupted at its most fragile point. I have never been for a war for oil. I hate that very concept. I'm against it now. But I will tell you this may be one that is worth considering if you can't fix it. We're in deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep trouble. The whole world is. The Strait of Hormuz is not just another battlefield. It is the world's artery.

And you know what happens when an artery is clogged. The body doesn't collapse instantly, but it weakens. And then the system slowly begin to fail. So what matters this week today is not who said what, not, you know, which strike hit, which target, not the political spin. The most important thing is watch the flow, not the fight, because everything downstream of that flow touches your life. If 20% of the world's oil normally moves through that 20-mile stretch, if that channel is even partially disrupted and it is bigly, then shipping costs rise, fuel costs rise, food cost rise, travel cost rise, business cost rise.

And eventually, if we don't solve this, hiring slows, growth slows, confidence breaks, and, you know, voila. And it's not going to, it's not going to happen all at once. It's going to show up in laders. And right now, everybody is panic buying or panic selling. Here's what you need to watch for in the news. I turned off Fox and I turned on CNBC last night. and I was just watching the business on CNBC. I understood about half of what they said.

But I got a completely different perspective on this because they weren't focusing on any of that stuff. They were focusing on the panic buying and the panic selling and what the markets are doing. But they were talking to oil experts. And the oil experts were just like, hey, this is just nuts and bolts. This is just math. Okay. Because what we're talking about is a just in time system. So you have to watch for the tanker traffic and insurance.

By the way, do you know how Donald Trump just gutted England yet again? They wouldn't let us use Diego Garcia. So he said, you know what? Fine. I'm just going to go ahead and I'll just, I'll cover the insurance for the tankers. And then England was like, you know what? Maybe you can use Diego Garcia. Well, you know what?

Maybe we should talk again. And he's like, nah, we don't need you. That's okay. Thank you. why did they do that? Because Lloyd's of London, all of the really big war insurance, it all comes from England. He's just gutted England. Congratulations. So who's paying for that? Are the ships starting to move? Right now, they're not. You have to watch diesel prices, not just gasoline. Gasoline will affect you, but diesel is going to affect you in every single way. Diesel is the economy's bloodstream.

It powers our ships, our trains. It fuels all of our production on the farms, the trucks that take it from the farms to the stores. I mean, it's everything. Shipping rates. The Strategic Oil Reserve releases. This tells you how serious leaders think this is. I don't think I've ever seen. don't remember in 1973 the big oil crisis, but I don't think I've ever seen all of the Western countries open their SPRs. I don't think I've ever seen that. I could have. Maybe I just didn't notice, but everybody's got them open. And then also the physical oil versus paper oil. You know, the real world prices versus the markets. Right now, I think the markets are pricing the real world prices lower. But that was today. Yesterday, I think it was higher. It's weird. Okay. Here's what's not important.

The daily political talking points because, you know, the president may or may not say things just to keep things held together because that's his job. Claims of we're winning or they're collapsing. Doesn't make a difference. That's day to day to keep things moving. Single strikes, you know, the strikes on on this or that really it's talking points social media rumors oh my gosh the emotional narratives stop with all of it all of that is just distraction because none of them will fix the flow and that's all this is going to become about why are they saying he's tacoed well he's tacoed because he's got to get that oil yes you know why they're now saying in the 1973 oil embargo almost collapsed America. I mean, it was bad.

1979, we also had an Iranian instability price by COVID. The supply chain collapsed. And then people stopped driving. They are saying this 20% is akin to what happened to us at COVID. But we're still moving. The system's not. If that's even remotely true, that's mind-boggling. mind-boggling.

So yeah, we want to make sure the oil does not collapse because if this is the most important number to watch, price per barrel. If it is over $120, $130 a barrel and it's sustained for several weeks, you will collapse the economy. $150, $160 a barrel sustained, it cannot function. the entire Western world. The math, math is math. I'm sorry. But I can tell you how I got there with everything being okay at $170,000 a barrel. Yeah, common core math doesn't work. Okay, math is math. And the entire system of the West is set up, I think the entire world. I mean,

it varies from country to country, but everybody is based on that kind of oil, cheap oil. It doesn't work without it. Now, we're not at a breaking point now, but we are. at the pressure point. And what happens in the next few days, we'll tell us everything we need to know. Is it a short disruption? If it is, then the system bends. If it's a prolonged disruption and oil starts to really spike

and we can't get that oil out of the straits of the strait of Hormuz, we're in trouble. Okay. So don't watch the explosions. That's going to just mood swings, man. You'll feel good. You'll feel bad. You feel good, you feel bad.

Don't watch any of that. Your life changes on the supply chain. World doesn't fall apart because of a bomb falling. The world falls apart when the system quietly stops working and people don't notice until it's too late. You will know how you need to prepare for the coming months just by watching the supply of oil and the price of oil. that's the thing. You can only pay attention to one thing. That's the thing to pay attention to.

All right. Back in just a second. Much of real estate transaction comes down to, you know, one person. And it's not you. I mean, unless you do this for a living, but, you know, it's the right house, the right price, the right timing. But if that one person representing you doesn't know what they're doing starts to get really complicated, really fast. missed details, poor negotiation, bad advice, exactly at the wrong moment. And the problem is, you don't know you have the wrong agent until you're already in the middle of it. That's why real estate agents I trust exist. We vet all of the agents all over the country and we recommend only the people with a proven track record with high ratings from the people that they have served.

It feels like every conversation about weight loss eventually turns to injections these days. I mean, you've probably heard about all of that by now. There are a lot of commercials pretty much running around the clock. These results can be dramatic.

something that's really appealing to a lot of people. It's one thing, of course, people do want to lose weight, but you know, you really want to go that far. Do you really want to use that? Do you want to stick a needle in yourself to make that happen? Some people love that. Some people are real needle fiends, but most aren't, I would say.

Cut one. I am interested in most. in pursuing a humane, dignified, and respectable way of reintegrating the people that were taken, the people who have been family, who were students, graduate students, who were here on legal visas, who were going to meetings that were legally required for them to maintain their citizenship status, and they were taken from those meetings. I'd like to see those people returned. I will be pursuing.

So that is the, that's the most important. I think the most important thing is, is that how is that the most important thing? Your country is absolutely on fire. How is that the most important thing? Now, Trump yesterday is proud of ice now in the airports, should be. It was like five hours in Atlanta to get through a line, sometimes longer, sometimes slightly shorter. It's 40 minutes now because ice is there. Here's Trump yesterday cut three.

Who's idea was that? We're dealing really... Mine. That was mine. That was mine. That was like the paperclip. You know the story of the paperclip? 182 years ago, a man discovered the paper clip. It was so simple. And everybody that looked at it and said, why didn't I think of that?

Ice was my idea. I called, first person I called was Tom Holman. I said, what do you think? He said, I think it's great. then I saw today there was some masks on. I didn't think the masks were appropriate. I put out a statement and I asked them, would it be possible to take off the mask?

Because they should wear a mask when they're dealing with the murderers and the thugs left in, let into our country. So now Brian Stelter, you know, the genius that he has, says that idea came from Fox News. That idea came from.

Actually, from Premier Radio Networks, it was Clay and Buck. Clay was on during the Clay and Buck show for the show following this on this network. Somebody called in and said, you know, we should have ice. It was Linda from Arizona. And Clay got on and talked about it on Fox News. And now Brian Stelder is like, no, he didn't think of that. Now it was Linda in Arizona.

You know what? I don't care. I really don't. I don't care. If it was Linda in Arizona, thank you, Linda. Thank you. It was Donald Trump. Thank you, Donald.

Appreciate it. I mean, it's just common. sense, gang. It is common sense. And you know why nobody thinks of those things? It's not like the paperclip. This is government. Nobody thinks of these things because nobody thinks it'll ever get done. You think of the common sense thing to do and then you're like, yeah, they'll never do that. And so you just stop thinking about it. So I don't care who thought of it. Really don't. Really don't. Thank you for doing it. Now, I would really appreciate it if you didn't take pictures of our ICE agents as they are trying to get you through the airport.

But you know somebody's doing that. And if somebody is taking pictures of our ice agents, they should be arrested. Because I don't think you're allowed to take pictures, you know, through TSA and show security. We lock our cars. We set our alarms. We install cameras. But there is one thing most people don't even realize can be stolen. And that is the title of your home.

Hometidalock.com use a promo code Glenn. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We've got a lot to talk about. We have Senator Rick Scott on coming up in about 30 minutes or so, 25 minutes. He's going to talk a little

bit about what's happening in Washington, D.C., and the TSA and DHS and all the madness that is Washington, D.C. In fact, that's where I want to start. I've got three stories before we get to him in the next couple of minutes that I want to share with you. First one's just about the madness. Second one is about the mighty. And the third one is about the miraculous, because there are lots of things going on. And some of them are actually really kind of cool. and some are really good. We'll tell you about those coming up in just a second. First, let me tell you about our sponsor.

It's the International Fellowship. You know, what if the difference between fear and stability came down to something as simple as kindness? A kindness done. When a box of food arrives and you are hungry. A warm place to sleep when you have done. A way to get through today without wondering, how are you going to get through tomorrow?

For many Jews in Israel right now, that's the reality, not the headlines, real life. days where the question is not what's next. How do we just get through this right now? That's where the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews makes a real, tangible difference. They show up in practical ways, providing meals and shelter and critical support to people who don't have time to wait for things to improve on their own. And what's powerful about this is how direct it is. It's not abstract. It's not theoretical. It is help arriving because sometimes hope Doesn't look like a big speech or a grand plan.

Sometimes it just looks like somebody knocking on the door with exactly what you need. Give $45 right now and rush life-saving essentials to the vulnerable under fire. 888-488-488-IFC. That's 888-488-IFC. Or go online to IFCJ.org. That's IFCJ.org. All right. Madness, the mighty and the miraculous.

Let's start with the madness. First of all, let me just say this. I don't like DHS. I don't like the Patriot Act. I don't like anything that we've done for the security of our nation, but you cannot just stop it, especially in the middle of a war. That is a system.

Like it or not, it's a system, and we need systems to be able to protect ourselves. Nature abhorers a vacuum. You can't just cut it off and expect everything to be fine, okay? But I don't like the idea that I'm pushing to fund DHS, because I would like to revamp and get rid of a lot of it. but not today until we have another plan. Let me speak right directly to the pinheads in Washington.

You speak of doing the right thing, but really you speak of leverage, you speak of strategy and timing and optics, and out here, we all stand in lines hours long, shoes in our hands, holding our belt, eyes on the clock, wondering, are we going to miss the flight? Am I going to make that meeting? Am I going to be there for the funeral? The moment that actually matters in real life, the kind, none of you seem to live anymore. And I don't speak for all Americans, but I do think I speak for a lot of Americans saying,

we are tired of being used in your little puppet show, whatever show you're doing, doing whatever game you're playing, we're tired of it. We're not pawns. We're not pieces on your chess board. We're not variables in your midterm strategy. We are citizens of the United States of America and we demand respect. You work for us. And quite honestly, we should fire all of you because you're failing us. You argue over funding while the people tasked to protect our airports are going unpaid. Do you even think about their lives? You say you do,

oh, you know how many people are going unpaid? You don't really care. You wouldn't do this. You've turned national security into a bargaining chip. You've reduced something as basic as keeping our planes safe into a political pressure point.

And while you posture, all the consequences are falling on us, not on you. Your life doesn't suck. because of this. You're not losing any pay. You're not standing in lines. You're not missing those flights. You don't feel that quiet, creeping realization that something fundamental in your country is breaking and nobody in charge seems serious about fixing any of it. It's madness. You have insulated yourself from the country you govern. We might as well go back to a king.

Groceries rise doesn't seem to affect you. Fuel climbs. You don't see it. You can't see it. You Get your gas in the basement of the capital. Wages stall. You don't care. You vote yourself a raise. Your world lives on a different system. Closed doors, late night votes, internal deals, none of us get to see. But we all have to pay for.

You don't even think of us. And when it comes to our safety, the most basic responsibility of any government, you're treating it just like another line item. to negotiate away. It is despicable. It is so dishonorable. And we're sitting here left to ask the question that we should never have to ask. Senator, Congressman, who the hell do you actually work for? Who do you work for? Because from where we stand, it doesn't look like the American people at all. It looks like you work for NGOs. It looks like you work for, I don't even know people who want more illegals here? You're working for crime bosses. Who are you working for? It looks like you're

working just to protect power. And by the way, don't think this is about party. This is not about party. Americans are done with that excuse. We've watched the cycle repeat too many times. Blame shifting the cameras roll. Nothing changes. Lather rinse repeat. Lather rinse repeat. Our hair never gets any cleaner. Trust is gone. Have you seen the lady? polls, trust is gone. Literally, I think the mullahs are more popular than Congress is. Hello? Once trust is gone, once people no longer believe in their government and that the government is acting in their own interest, you are standing on borrowed time. Do you get that? What's your plan? Because your plan would have to be, I better change course, or

I've better grab the helm of all of this and grab all the guns and keep all the people at bay and control them. Those are your only two options because it's going to come down to one of the two. You guys either surrender and say, wow, we are waking up here. We got to change this. We got to fix this because the American people. We work for the American people. Or it will get so bad that you'll say, I've got to keep the American people in cages. So which one is your plan?

You know, all of you think that you are what make America great. You don't make America great. You don't. None of you make America great. You know who makes America great? Her people make America great. Time and time again, when things happen in the world, our government says, yeah, you guys go over and fight that.

And we go over and fight it. It's us that lose our sons and daughters. We're the ones who have stepped in and corrected the course time and time again. we're the ones that vote. We're the ones that go, I don't want to go serve in Washington, and then we're there for a little while, then you corrupt them.

But every time, peacefully, lawfully, decisively, it is the American people that make the difference. And you seem to think you hold all the cards. You don't. You don't. You have seven of them.

The deck has 52. Authority for this country does not originate from you or your office or that little gallum pin, you're precious that you wear all the time. It flows from the people who sent you there. Do you even see them anymore? Because you're breaking that trust every day. And when that trust is gone and broken long enough, history shows you what happens next. Not chaos, but correction, a reset. So hear this clearly, without spin, with tons of hope that you will actually hear.

not playing a game. You are. We're not. Fund the damn agencies that protect this country. Pay the people who keep it secure. They're damn near broke every month. You're not. They are. Do your job without turning our safety into leverage. It's not a damn game. And the theater. The patience of the American people is not unlimited. And the longer you pretend it is, the closer you get to finding out exactly where that line is. I don't know where that line is. But I wouldn't want to keep walking towards it. Do you know the people from the FAA couldn't even get,

there's wreckage on the tarmac in New York of a plane? They couldn't even arrive at the scene because of the airport delays. Some of them only landed this morning at 2 a.m. This is not workable. I don't know if you noticed that. This isn't workable. God help you if this country is hit by anything big. God help you all.

All right. Let me take a break here and let me tell you about the mighty. First, relief factor. When you're living with a lot of pain in your life, it can be so easy just to give up hope of ever feeling normal again. I know how that goes. I've been there. I hear from people all the time who were just like me at Wits' end until they discovered Relief Factor and they got their lives back. Relief Factor was created by doctors to help reduce the inflammation.

That's the major source of the pain that we experience, most major source of all of our disease as well. It works with your body and it fights against the effects of aging, exercise, and every single. day living. I take relief factor every single day and has made an enormous impact on the way I live my life. Over a million people have tried it. Two-thirds of them have gone on to order more. If you've been listening to me, talk about relief factor for a while, maybe this is your moment. Maybe this is the day. Just try it. Three-week quick start. It's enhanced formula that they just did, designed to work even smarter with your body. Get the quick start. 1995. Relieffactor.com. 804 relief. 800, the number four relief. It's relieffactor.com. 10 seconds. Station.

do. Hopefully I'll have time to tell you two more stories. This one is about the mighty. And it's a story. 270 million people have viewed this story. And I haven't seen anybody actually put it together in a way that when I saw it, I went, wow, what does that say about us? This story begins on a cold stretch of highway, northeastern China, asphalt, the noise, the danger, the cars whizzing by,

and seven dogs walking, I mean, it kind of looks like with purpose. I mean, it looks like it's a movie. It should be a movie. Man, just an ordinary citizen, pulls out his phone,

starts recording, and at first glance, it looks like, you know, you've seen it, maybe strays, maybe abandoned dogs. But then you notice something, and maybe I am,

anthropomorphizing these dogs too much. Maybe they're just, I'm putting too many human qualities into them. But it's almost like they're organized, okay? There's one at the front, a little corgi, small load of the ground, constantly turning its head checking. I don't know, almost like counting, you know, does anybody left behind? We got all seven. At the center, a German shepherd, injured, struggling, but surrounded, feels like guarded and protected and flanking golden retrievers, Labradors, a Pekingese.

It's the weirdest, I don't know, collection of family or soldiers almost, escorting one of their own, you know, through enemy territory, one that's almost down. And the cars are roaring past. Nobody slows down. Never does. But the dogs aren't scattering. They don't panic. And it seems like they just are in a formation.

you know, one of them's hurt. No, we're not going to leave a dog behind. I mean, it's a war story. So you're watching this. Stop for a second. Ask yourself, when is the last time you saw that? Not in animals, but in us. When's the last time these dogs have been stolen?

They were taken. They were likely headed for slaughter. It's a Chinese industry that thrives, you know, on just stealing dogs and then just making them into food. Okay. So when's the last time you saw that? With us, they escaped. They don't have a roadmap.

They don't have GPS. I don't know. Maybe they weren't blindfolded when they took them. I don't know how the dogs knew where they were going. Okay. Just loyalty, loyalty, memory, you know, home. Got to get home. They go for 17 kilometers, which the math can't be done.

Nobody knows how far that is, but I think it's around 10 miles. highways, fields, chaos, they don't break apart. I mean, somebody starts following him with a drone and everybody in the world's watching him. And they didn't say, every dog, it's a doggy dog world, every dog's out for himself. They formed something ancient, something that is so uniquely human. And I know I'm reading too much into this story, but it is amazing. It's almost like they have a covenant that we're all staying together. You know, we're all together. We all get there in the end or we don't make it at all.

Volunteers started to track them. Drones, like I said, people start to begin to care. And the story spreads. 270 million people have seen this. And then quietly, without any big fanfare, they make it home. Every single one of the dogs, back to their families, three different households, different owners, different lives, one journey, one bond, make it home. How did this happen?

We are going together or we don't go at all. How did that happen? The owner said, we're just lucky they came back so they weren't eaten. You know, you think about that sentence for a while. I mean, you know, hey, that's the joys, I guess, of living in China. There's another line of somebody who saw the footage. They said, dogs show loyalty. Humans who harm them show far less humanity.

Ouch. But it's true, isn't it? This story has captured 270 million people because it's what we're missing. We're living in a time where everything is breaking into pieces, our communities, our families, our nations, truth, everything. You know, and we're being told, look out for yourself. Protect your own. He's got it. Take it from him.

Get ahead. Don't get dragged down by somebody else's weakness. And yet here on a highway in China, a frozen highway, seven dogs reject all of that crap. They grew up in China. They're most likely Marxists. The strongest slowed down, the smallest lead. The injured was protected and the group endured. There was no hashtag.

None of the dogs were like, put a hairy box on your Instagram page to support the dog. It was just them doing it, just loyalty, just love. They walked together. What the hell is wrong with us? Honestly, what is wrong with us? What are we? I mean, look at what's happening in Canada. And 15 states here, 15 or 18 states here in America are voting on it in this next year, made.

We're building systems. We're the species. We're the supposed to be the. most loving, humane, based on the word, human. And we're building systems where the most vulnerable are just discarded, where the innocent can just be exterminated, where we're not seeing, I mean, one thing I really have to work on is just empathy. Just having empathy for, I don't know anybody else's story.

I know mine. and that's what leads me to go, well, they don't know my story, so they don't know I'm really not a jerk. I mean, well, do I know their story? And maybe they're not a jerk either. Are we building, what are he building? I want to join the dogs. World's going to dogs.

If that's true, the whole world's going to the dogs. I want to join the dogs because I want to be part of a society that looks at a wounded companion and says, hey, hey, everybody, slow down. Slow down. We carry them. somewhere along the way we stopped acting like the humans were supposed to be stopped acting like the best of us and we started justifying the worst and maybe these seven dogs who didn't do that these seven dogs are there to remind us of something ancient

something simple something really really true you don't leave your own behind not on the highway not anywhere we all get home together these dogs didn't just find their way home It's my hope that they would point us back to ours. I have one more story to share with you, and it's about the miraculous, something that is happening in science right now that is mind foggling.

We'll get to that, but we have Rick Scott coming up in just a minute. He is a senator. He's going to talk to us about what the hell is going on in Washington? We'll talk to him next. All right, let's talk about the moment after. Not the moment, you know, when something goes wrong.

Everybody focuses on that. You know, everybody's like the storm, the outage, the headlines, look what's going on. I mean, the moment right after that. Lights are out, the house is quiet. You reach for your phone out of habit. You realize, nope, whatever just happened, just took that out. I'm on my own for a while. That's a different kind of feeling.

And in that moment, you start taking inventory. What do I have? What do I wish I had? what did I assume I would figure out later that I'm not going to figure out now. That's why my Patriot supply exists, not for the dramatic moment, but for the moment after, when you're relying on what you already have in your home, you know, the emergency food, the practical gear, the real preparation that you took seriously before you needed it, because preparedness isn't about fear.

now that I am a resident of the great state of Florida. And it's hard to leave Texas, but it's good to be in Florida. Senator, welcome last night. I know you guys had a very late night last night. Mark Wayne Mullen became the new secretary of DHS, which is not even running, 54-45.

And then I heard that the president was on the phone like at 1 a.m. trying to broker a deal. Are we close to some sort of deal that at least opens up our airports and gets DHS and TSA funded? Well, it sounds like if there is a deal, it's a bad deal. The Democrats are trying to use this. They want, they've been clear. They said they want to hold up funding for ICE to get amnesty. They don't want the Save America Act done.

This is an opportunity for them to get everything. they wanted. They got all their earmarks, along with a Republican, we got all their earmarks. And now they say, oh, we got to open up. We got to open up TSA. But we're not going to fund ICE. We're not going to fund the people that get rid of the bad guys. I've got a wife, two daughters, and a granddaughter. Okay. I don't want anything to happen to them, like what happened to what Rachel Marin or Lichen, Riley, and what this, what the proposal is on the table supposedly is, oh yeah, we hope we take CAR, TSA, which we should. But don't fund enforcement removal operations from ICE.

I mean, how can you feel good if what you're saying is, oh, yeah, we want to get the airports open. The Democrats shut them down, but we're going to get those darn airports open, but that people want to kill or rape your kid, we're not going to fund them. No, we're not, we're not worried about. Well, we trust the Democrats. They'll still work with us on this down the road. I don't trust one of them. They don't want to help us. They want the open borders.

They don't care that all these criminals in our country. This is disgusting. And there's nothing about Save America in it. There's nothing to get that done. And by the way, these Democrat senators are against this. They're getting paid. They said, oh, we got a mortgage. We got to get paid.

So I've had a bill, no budget, no pay since I got up here seven years ago. And every time I bring it up, every day we're Democrats says, oh, no, that's not fair. Well, it's not fair to TSA or Secret Service or Coast Guard or ICE did not get paid either. Okay. Um, this is really disappointing. Um, yes. So, no, no, no, glad. It's not disappointing.

It's mad. It should make you furious. Oh, no, I'm, I'm very mad about not funding these people. Uh, so. Why, why is the president then on board? He's not saying he's doing it. Is that? Oh, he's not.

He's not said he's doing it. No, he's not. Have you seen a public statement? He's not said he. No, I'm not. I've heard, I've heard from sources. from I've heard from sources near the president. Anonymous sources.

Yeah, anonymous sources. Okay. So, look, the prison's been clear. He wants to save America past. The president's clear. He wants to keep people safe. I mean, think about what this guy's done. He's busted, bus to secure the border.

He's doing everything he can to get these criminals out of the country. We've got to help him. Don't tell him it's not doable. Be honest with him. We're going to. Stick with you, Mr. President. We're going to stick with you. We're going to get the Save America Act done.

We're going to figure it out. It's going to be hard. Democrats want to cheat. We're going to figure it out. And guess what? We're not going to get, we're not going to let these Democrats get something passed that doesn't fund ICE. And by the way, they say, oh, they say, well, they'll get funding for the big, beautiful bill. Well, let me, let me make sure.

In the big, beautiful bill, all that covers is hiring and training, okay, performance, retention, and signing bonuses. Does that sound like that can pay everyday salaries? No. No. It doesn't to me. I want to me to explain to me how, if they want to go down this path, how are these ICE agents going to be because I get paid, I want the people they're doing enforcement and removal operations to get more money. I want the criminals gone. So how long before their salaries, how long before their salaries are not covered? Because, I mean, how long are you going to be able to keep them watching over our airports? If they're not covered, when does that run out?

Well, Mike, I can sure. I don't know how they're paying them now. If you look at the big beautiful bill, they said, oh, we can pay them to the big beautiful bill. Well, it says hiring and training, performance retention, siting bones. So I'm just asked, I'm just asking everybody, tell me how, you know, because here's what will happen. They'll say, oh, yeah, we can pay them. And then what will happen? they'll go along and then some liberal judge will say no i looked at the big beautiful bill you can't

pay these people so now we're what are we going to do that we have no leverage and the democrats are one who did this other ones shut down the governor and this part of government in january 30 i completely opposed it i said this is this we will never i said at the time ice will never be funded by these democrats they care about illegal aliens they do not care about americans that's where we are No, that's very, very, very clear. You know, when you have J.D. Prisker come out and say, or who was it that said yesterday, Chris Murphy, that you're in the wrong place, the wrong time? No, no, no.

Who was that? Yeah, I don't know. Politician. Yeah, another politician. Yeah, that, you know, the victim was in the wrong place, the wrong time? No, you know who's in the wrong place, the illegal alien. Not the American citizen, the illegal alien. But they just don't care about that.

They'd be alive. How do, what is it one of these Democrats? What do you say to Lick and Riley's family when you say, well, I'm not worried about getting those people funded up. Or, you know, what do you say to them? It happened to your kid? You'd be pissed as hell. Well, I was disturbed this morning when I heard that this was going through. And because it was one of my questions I was going to ask you, they said, well, the Democrats said, we'll bring that up in September.

And I thought, oh, yeah. In September, they're going to pass all of these things that the Republicans in September. not a chance. Right. So. And then they say, oh, we're doing reconciliation. Reconciliation is only mandatory funding. And by the way, in reconciliation, you can't pay normal salaries.

And the big beautiful bill was reconciliation. The tax cuts were great. The rest of it, we spent money like drunken sailors. So how do you, because part of this has to be now, how do you sell this to the American people? We are in a war with a terror, you know, the biggest terror state in the world. We know we have sleeper cells here. We're seeing terrorist activities. We had drones flying over one of our nuke bases, and they were not, you know, from Home Depot or from Best Buy.

They had jamming capability. We could not jam them and bring them down. They had capability of staying up against us. We don't know who that is. How do you sell this to the American people? because the Democrats are going to spend this. So we did a deal, but the Republican just didn't want it. Yeah, we'd be honest.

And you've got to go, you've got to go on television, and you have to be honest with the American people. We care about you. They care about illegal aliens. Let me show you, and do the vote every day. Let's take a vote every day to open up all Homeland Security. Let's take it every day and say, we don't get why they don't care about you.

So we have to just go tell people and be completely honest with them. We want to, we want to make sure you're safe. Like right now, think about this. We have the cybersecurity threat, okay? I think it's two-thirds of people that are protecting the country on that are furloughed right now because of the shutdown. Coast Guard shutdown. I mean, I mean, I say, we've got to be honest. The Democrats are not the people that care about you.

and don't act like they're normal. It's not normal for them to say, I don't care about Sheraton-Gorman, or she was just the wrong place at the wrong time. No, she didn't move. She didn't go to some faraway country and go out in the middle of the night. She was in the United States of America,

which should be safe. Okay, so tell me what you and your fellow senators would like the American people to do, because the American people, Well, I think the American people are the ones that have kept the Save America Act alive in the first place, and they don't understand. You know, I just, I got an email in from, let me see, one of our listeners, and she said, gosh, where is it? Who are these senators that just won't get this done on our side? Well, here's what I tell everybody to do.

All right. So I want to get the Save America Act passed. The only way it's going to get done is we get 60 votes, right? So that means you've got to, we've got to get 60 votes, or we have to add it to a must pass bill, or we've got to figure out how to use the talking bill. So that's our options, right? So I tell people, call constantly, let people know. This is representative government. If you care about the Save America Act, if you care about old.

opening up the apartment Homeland Security, call every Republican, every Democrat senator, and say, get your button gear and get this done. Like the Save America Act is popular. Republicans want, Democrats want it, independents want it. Funding government is popular. People don't want TSA to not get paid. So I've got a bill that says, you know what, you vote not to pay people, you don't get paid. No budget, no pay. We don't pass budgets up here. You don't get paid. Because guess what? All these Democrat senators are fine with people not getting paid. They say, oh, I've got a mortgage. I got to get paid.

That's not fair to me. What about those poor TSA agents that only make $50,000? When U.S. senators here make $174,000. And by the way, the average Democrat senator is worth $3 million. So they're not hurting. But guess who's hurting? TSA or Secret Service or Coast Guard. These people are worried about their car payment, their home payment,

their kids' school, or their kids, they want to go on. on vacation, they can't do it now because they're worried about getting a paycheck. Three shutdowns in six months by these Democrats. So we've got to be honest and get out there and tell people, this is what's going on and quit letting the Democrats act like, oh, we care. Because they don't. They don't give a damn about Americans. Senator Rick Scott from Florida.

Thank you, sir. Thank you for fighting. Thanks for standing up and at least trying to push the truth. Yeah, we're going to get there. Appreciate it. God bless you. Thank you. All right. Bye-bye. Senator Rick Scott from the great state of Florida. All right. Patriot Mobile. I have another idea. I'm going to think. I might think better of it in the next three minutes, but give me a second because I have another idea.

If you play close attention, pay close attention in life, you'll find that once in a while something, someone comes along and puts a new face on an old thing and you see it in a new light. Up until now, you've probably just gone along with whatever mobile. company offered you the best deal probably you know not even all that time you know since you know it's a hassle to switch companies you probably have been with the same company forever either not been aware of the fact that a lot of big mobile companies donate to really far left causes or even if you knew about it you feel like there's nothing i can do about it after all what choice do you have and just go to another one that's going to do the same thing well patriot mobile has come along and changed all that not only is it incredibly easy to switch to patriot mobile you're not only going to get the

same service for cheaper, but PatriotMobil also donates to strictly conservative causes. So go to Patreonmobile.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot. Use a promo code Beck for a free month of service. Patriotmobile.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot. Use a promo code Beck. Make the switch today. Patriot mobile.com slash Beck. Turns out, when did that get there? Common sense ain't all that common. But around here, it's still standard equipment. Glenn Beck returns in a minute. This is not a suggestion as much as it is a question because I'm not, I'm not wired this way. And I'm not sure how you do it without creating more chaos. But as I was thinking about what's happening over in England, the English government is not afraid of the people. They're not

afraid of the English. They are afraid of the Islamists who are now everywhere in their country and they won't do anything against them because they know they'll rise up and they'll just start beheading people and killing people. So they're afraid of it. And they also know that that's the coalition that will keep them in power. We've tried all kinds of stuff. We used to march to Washington because people, you know, there was, wow, there was a million people there. And it used to make a difference. I don't think that makes a difference anymore. Calling, I think does make a difference, but not the way it used to. You know, cutting off their funding. I'm not sure that even. makes a difference, you know.

You know, they used to look at numbers and say, look at all the people marching, they're going to vote against us. Well, now, I mean, if they don't pay the, you know, if they don't pass the Save America Act, they don't care. We'll just make more. We'll just print more.

And just looking back in history at all great movements, nothing ever happens unless you have unions, unless you have walkouts. And I don't like this because it has such chaotic results in it. But, I mean, who are the unions that are most affected by this? Can you imagine if, you know, here you are in Chicago and your police force is arresting these people over and over and over again. And your government just keeps letting them out. Doesn't they get tiring as a police officer?

Don't you? Like, what the hell are we even doing this for? I mean, imagine what would happen if 50% of the New York Police Department called in sick for a week? Imagine what that would be like? Oh, they'd suddenly find love and support for the police, wouldn't they? You can't do that. You can't do that. We've got to be protected.

Really? Really? Oh, all of a sudden, we're important to you. Yeah, no, we're not going to do it unless you, unless you stop this madness with ice. All we're asking is when you've arrested, they're convicted, they're illegal. Okay. Just call ICE and say, hey, be at the back door at 3 o'clock. will hand you the prisoner.

What is the problem with that? How is that so unreasonable? People are getting killed all the time. And our police officers, they have got to hate this. They've got to hate this. I would. I'd be like, why are we picking them up? They're just going to be let out.

They'll be out in the street in two hours. What are we doing? I mean, sometimes don't you feel that about your job? You're like, why are we even doing this? It doesn't make a difference. Imagine being a cop. And you're seeing the effect. you're having to be there with the family of the person who's just been killed.

And you're like, yeah, I, I, no, it's up to prosecutors. And if they decide to prosecute or, you know, the judge, if they decide to let them out, but they'll probably be out on the street in two hours. How do you deal with that? Again, I don't, I'm not, I'm not geared this way. There's got to be think tanks out there that do these kinds of things and others that look at it. But I got to tell you, if you don't have any teeth, you don't have anything that will wake these politicians. up. They have nothing. They have nothing. They don't care about your vote. They despise you. Um,

what, what power do we have? You know what's strange about back pain? It usually doesn't show up with blaring sirens and crashing symbols. It just sort of becomes a part of your daily routine. And before you realize, you've totally changed. You sit a little more carefully than used to. You avoid certain movements. You get up slower. You plan your day around what your spine might decide to do. Um, that, that, that, that, you sit a little more carefully than used to do. Um, that, that, that, you sit a little more That's not the way it's supposed to be. Here's the reality. The chirp contour is designed for that exact kind of everyday wear and tear.

You just look up to the screen and I'm seeing MSNBC is running a map that shows possible landing spaces for U.S. ground troops. what, excuse me, what? So they are now feeding the narrative that we are going on with boots on the ground and we're going to be landing in possibly several different places in Iran. How unbelievably irresponsible is that? But, I mean, anything I guess for a vote, anything to make things more cloudy. And things are as cloudy as you can get. I don't, I was at a dinner party last night, a friend of mine, I call her my Italian

sister, Giovanna. She was having a birthday, and we're all sitting around, and believe me, if you know, Giovanna, everybody she knows is conservative, and I mean real conservative. And we're sitting around,

and I'm talking to people who are just really, really, very smart, just, you know, plugged in, but they're regular people. And some of the conversations I had really kind of threw me for a second. And I want to talk to you about that because it's happening not just in, you know,

conservative circle, it's happening with everybody. It's happening absolutely with everybody. And social media is a problem. And I want to go through that. So is MSNBC. I mean, that's going to be now reported as fact to people who are watching MSNBC. Look, I already saw where they're going to land. They're already choosing the landing spots. All right. So we'll get into that here in a second. First, what is it? mean to live somewhere where a siren is not a test, not a drill, not a false alarm, and not a tornado warning. You know, when those tornado warnings go off, you know, you look outside. If you're in Israel, that air siren goes on. It means you have 15 seconds

to get into shelter because a missile is coming down near you. Families woke up in the middle of the night, you know, running to their shelters, wearing, you know, waiting to hear whether the sound above them is an interception or an impact. And it's not one day. It's not one incident. It's every day. It's a pattern every single day, every single night. Reality that doesn't turn off when the news cycle moves on. We get to go back to our lives. They don't. This is why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is there on the ground. Right now they're not watching this from a distance. They're on the ground providing food, emergency aid and support to families and individuals, especially the elderly, who are living alone going through this in real time.

time because when life changes in seconds, help can't take weeks. It has to be there right now. And for somebody sitting in a shelter waiting for that all clear, that kind of help is really important. It's everything. Give $45 right now and rush life-saving essentials to the vulnerable under fire at 888-488-I-F-CJ. That's 8-8-488-I-FCJ or go online to IFCJ.org. Okay, so I'm at this birthday dinner last night. It's great. And somewhere between appetizers and the candles. Um, somebody said to me, do you think Benjamin and Yahoo is dead? And I actually had to say, what?

I just, sorry, did I, Benjamin? No, he's, he's not dead. And this is something my wife, who is a she takes care of the family. And we've always had this really healthy agreement that, um, she takes care of the family. She keeps our life normal. I pay attention to all of this stuff. because if the two of us, we'd get into a, we'd get into a doomsday loop if the two of us were involved.

She came to me and she was like, you see the video on Benjamin and Yahoo? And I said, yeah, it's AI, honey. It's not real. But that wasn't, that wasn't, it was weird. It was just weird. It was weird. Because people, and it wasn't just these people,

people everywhere, they believe that's real. They just believe it's real. And I was thinking about it last night. And there's another claim on the other side that people believe is just real. And that is there's a claim that this Irish band, Neacap, was playing a concert in Cuba. And somehow it caused a nationwide blackout. And the blackout killed every patient on the ventilators there in Cuba. Horrifying and not true.

Absolutely not true. There was a blackout, but it was caused by a failure at the power plant hundreds of miles away, part of a ongoing, long-going, long-going energy crisis, you know, and not the band, okay, not the communists that we're parting with the band, okay? The hospital deaths, we don't know, unverified, no names, no records, no confirmation, but the story is out there and it spreads. Why? It spreads because people are saying it on the Internet and it feels kind of true in some way

or another. It fits a narrative and you want to believe it. the trick is we have to be able to see through these fake stories. We have to slow down enough and think through logically. And I think the BB story is the best example of this. Let me take you through that. If Benjamin Netanyahu are dead, let's think this through. The first layer that is required for this is total silence from the people who physically surround him.

That's family, personal staff, security detail, medical personnel, drivers, aides, schedules, schedulers. And these are not anonymous figure. These are dozens of individuals, many with independent loyalties, some who disagree with them strongly, politically, some who would have every incentive, financial, ideological, even personal to speak up if something this enormous were true. Okay. Not one credible defection can happen. Not one. Not one verifiable leak could happen. That's damn near impossible, but step back. Modern head of state, this is not a kingdom. He doesn't exist in isolation. He has to constantly interact with military leadership, the intelligence, the cabinet members, the opposition leaders, the foreign diplomats. If the man were gone, every single one of those interactions has to become a performance.

Every meeting becomes a theater and it's not just internally. Okay. The response was, well, he's missed all of these meetings, but he hasn't. He hasn't. There's video of him meeting with all of these people since he supposedly was dead. They even have him in a press conference where he's like, you know, I'm very much alive. Well, that's AI. Well, we'll get to that.

So you got to go, it's personal. Then you got to do everybody in his country that is around politics, people that don't like him. Then you have the United States government. You have the European allies, regional adversaries, intelligence services across the globe. They all have to either be fooled or actively participate in the deception. Think about that for a minute. Rival intelligence agencies, some of which exist specifically.

to expose weakness or deception in Israel. They would all have to miss or suppress it. That's just not how intelligence services behave. They leak, they compete, they expose, they just do. Now bring in the media. Not one outlet, all of them. Just, I mean, ABC, NBC, CNN, all of that. The hostile press, the friendly press, the foreign press, the independent journalist,

You would need dozens of reporters in physical proximity, camera crews filming in real time, because that's what exists. You would need audio technicians capturing unscripted speech, editors reviewing every raw footage, all either deceived by something flawless or complicit. And remember, journalists break careers for stories far smaller than this. This would be the biggest political cover-up in modern history. And no one has the human instinct to cash in on that, on Israel. Now let's deal with the hardest claim, the one the people always retreat to. It's all AI. Okay, well, someday it is going to be like this, but it's not there yet.

You would need the technology that could generate full motion, real-time video. We're not there. Handle unpredictable environments, lighting, background noise, interruptions. You would have to allow unscripted interaction with other humans. We're not there on any of these things. Maintain consistency across multiple appearances, different angles, different days, and do it so perfectly that video experts cannot detect it.

Foreign intelligence could not detect it. Political opponents can't expose it. If that technology exists at that level, not in a lab, but operationally deployed, it would be the most valuable in destabilizing capability on earth. And it wouldn't be used for Benjamin Netanyahu. It would be used for something far, far greater than that. Okay. There are dozens of appearances that are verified by dozens of observers.

How do you stop that? How do you explain that? Especially when you stack all of it together. For this to be real, You'd need total silence from the inner circle, total coordination against his entire government, total compliance or total failure of government intelligence from all over the world, the globe. You'd need total complicacy or total incompetence of the international media and flawless, undetectable AI that could replace a human being in dynamic public settings.

That's a pretty big wall to get over. or the alternative is it is a rumor born in a chaotic information environment amplified by really bad actors picked up by social media repeated by people who trust the source more than the verification because they have in many cases rightfully so been so burned by everybody else they no longer trust any other media so they trust this video they cannot verify where it came from. One requires a global airtight conspiracy of unprecedented scale, and the other one just requires human nature. If you can convince people that a sitting leader is dead when he's not, you don't just spread confusion,

you don't just fracture trust, you destabilize perception, you make people doubt everything that follows. And once people doubt everything, they can be led everywhere. Now, who would benefit from that? Well, if you're an adversary of Israel, and I think there's a few, what's more useful? Defeating Netanyahu on the battlefield or convincing the world he's already dead and gone

and signal chaos, weakness, collapse. It will boost morale on one side. eroded on the other. But it doesn't stop there. There are entire networks and state actors and ideological groups, even engagement-driven platforms that profit from the confusion. It's hard to, I found myself at a loss because they're really, the people I was talking to, really kind, really intelligent.

I have a lot of respect for them. And all I could think of on the drive home was, how did those guys fall for this? Most likely because they're overwhelmed. Most likely flooded with more information in a day than previous generation saw in an entire lifetime. Our brains are just trying to keep our head above water. Our brains are just trying to keep us alive. And so we look for shortcuts.

And this is what the brain does. We trust what aligns with what we already suspect. So if you're already suspecting that this is dirty, we trust things when we see them. We're like, yep, that makes sense. The brain intelligence, remember, is just pattern recognition. If we trust that it's not dirty, we don't trust that. Okay. And slowly without realizing it, we stop verifying and we just start absorbing.

This is not a new problem, but it's an epic performance. portions now because of social media. And it's only going to get worse. If we don't understand how our brain works and what is happening to us, you know, you, you won't, you're just not going to make it. You're just not going to make it. Okay, because this is not about Netanyahu. This is about everything. This is about absolutely everything that we're facing right now. The answer used to be trust the institutions, trust the press, trust authority. All of that's gone. Okay. The answer now is harder. trust, but verify, but you have to verify. You have to cross-check.

You have to hold your own conclusions loosely until they're earned. And there's lots of sources that are mainstream sources that would have absolutely been gleeful to report this story. But don't agree with Israel. They don't have a soft spot for Benjamin Net and Yahoo at all. there would have been tons of sources that would have been saying this. Legitimate, big sources. I hate to use the word legitimate. Big sources.

None of them are saying it. You have to become comfortable saying, I don't know. I don't know because that's what I said last night. I said, you know, I don't think so. I haven't really done my deep dive on this, but I don't think so. But I don't know. I don't know. Because I don't know is the beginning of truth.

But certainty without evidence is that. the beginning of manipulation. And that's what we all have to avoid. More on this here in a second. First, let me tell you about leaf filter. Let's talk about a very specific kind of denial, the kind that, you know, where you know something needs to be done,

but you're like, eh, today's not the day. And climbing up the ladder to clean up my gutters, uh, today's not today. No day is that day. Maybe last time it rained, the water did something weird.

You know, there's, maybe there's actual plant life starting up there. You tell yourself, yeah, but it's probably fine. not today. Then it rains again. And now it's not fine. But you've already committed to the denial so you double down. It's just a lot of water. Water goes everywhere. That's what water does, right? Meanwhile, the gutters are, you know, hosting their own ecosystem is time to get leaf filter. It stops all of that before it starts, leaving the debris and your new rooftop, you know, wild sanctuary out of your gutters so the water can actually flow the way it's supposed to. And you can say, yeah, I'm not going to do that today because you never have to do it. Leafilter. L-A-Filter.com.

with lies that we know are lies and we just can't stop living that lie. And, you know, this is why I've always said, you know, recovering alcoholics will save the world because of the 12-step program. If we could get everybody in the world to do a 12-step program, we'd fix the world. Because there's a reason that lies spread faster than truth and why you live with a lie. It's not that lies are more powerful. It's because lies are usually easier to live with. A lie will give you a villain, a motive, and a conclusion instantly.

We like everything in its own little package, okay? And it usually isn't a package that maybe three words or less, okay? He's a racist. She's a fraud. They hate you. Done. No thinking required. No burden and proof.

No responsibility to understand. But the truth is different. The truth doesn't. doesn't tell you what to feel. The truth doesn't assign motive. It doesn't hand you a clean ending. It just sits there and you're like, crap. And you say crap when you're confronted with the truth because that's where all the pain begins.

That's when you're like, ah, ah, most anger, I mean, gut level anger, it doesn't come from what someone did. it comes from what we decide it means. We don't just hear words. We write a story in our own head. True or not, we write a story in our own head why those words were said. And then we assign intent, sometimes to us,

sometimes to other. You know, they did that because they're just selfish. You know, they're just evil. Or I'm just a bad person, whatever it is. That's the spark,

that's the math. Now multiply that. This is the real problem by millions of people every day, every minute of every day, scrolling, seeing three seconds of, quote, truth in social media. Shortcuts, labels, assumptions. We think we're saving time because we're only watching three, four, five, six seconds. But we're actually feeding something really, really bad, anger. At least that's what we think. In reality, the assumption is that aren't about other people. This is where it gets so ugly. It's about us. Because we all carry a story. I'm the good guy. I'm doing this for the right reasons.

My motives are clean. And that story is really, really fragile. This is going to get ugly here. It's more fragile than we like to admit. Because when a lie hits you and a mob comes after you, you can dismiss it.

They don't know me. They're wrong. and it's easy again. But when truth hits you, verified, documented, no spin, no accusation, just the facts, then it is sitting there and you're like, crap. Because now the story that's under attack

isn't coming from them, it's coming from you. It's the lie you've been telling yourself. And it's at that moment that every human being has the same choice. You accept the truth and rewrite who you are or reject it and protect the story. And most people don't choose the truth.

They choose the wave. They get angry. They get louder. They're more defensive. More certain because anger is easier than having to look through your entire life and go, where did I go wrong? More in a minute. All right.

Glenn, you need to help me save America. You know, you know that you know. You know that Congress is dead. We need petitions and memorandums that we the people can vote on, like voter ID, 80% of the United States wants it. Congress doesn't want it. We want a balanced budget. Congress doesn't want it.

There's all kinds of stuff that we need to be able to save America. we the people have to start screaming. Well, I will, you know, I'll tell you that, you know, I agree with that in theory. I don't know how you get that done, Dan, but you are in Minnesota. I mean, you couldn't get that done in your own state. No, I know that. But all these states put their own memorandums in and petitions in, and then they let the state vote on it.

We need to do this federally. I agree with you on that. 100% 100%. I have been, that is, that's, you know, kind of been an underlying theme for the last few weeks. You know, when I say you got to take care of your own self, your own house, your own neighborhood, your own state, I mean, you can't rely on the federal government to do things. We have to strengthen our states. We must strengthen our states. And that's the way to do it. Thanks, Dan, for your call. Let me go to Rudy in North Carolina. Hello, Rudy. Hey, Glenn.

How you doing? Appreciate it taking my call. Thank you. We were using the last hour about Congress. I remember my father was a history teacher. I'm going back maybe 40 years ago, but he took his whole class to Washington, and we sat in. We saw Congress in session introducing bills and passing legislation. Now, you can't even do that.

It's like a jailed off. It's like a prison cell in Washington. It's ridiculous. It's not only that. Try to watch C-SPAN. They're not doing anything. They're not doing anything. They don't debate anything.

C-SPAN has always been boring, but now it's really boring because there's no tension because they're not actually doing the work Congress is supposed to be doing anymore. It's all done behind the scenes. Rudy, thanks for your call. Jeremy and Georgia. Hello, Jeremy. Hey, Glenn. How's it going?

Great. I was just calling to point out on a national level because you get out way further than we can in the state of Georgia, that you have John Ossoff and Warnock, the two senators from Georgia, railing against the Save America Act, when both of them got voted into office in a state that requires real ID to vote. Yet somehow or another, they managed to pull it off. Isn't that amazing? In that amazing.

What did you say? I said, you know, you can talk about dominion or any of the, the other complications, but in the state of Georgia, you need a real ID to vote. Yeah. Look, it's not an argument that is that any thinking person is actually making. I mean, you know, it's just, it's just one of those points of frustration. Let me go to Jason and bring him in because he's been talking to the insiders who are watching on the torch.

When we go into commercials, he'll take us to things that I've touched on, but haven't really been able to go in depth on. One of those things is the war in Iran. And you've been presenting the insiders with some really interesting theories today. What are you looking for here, Jason? What do you think is coming? One of the biggest questions that I'm seeing today from the insiders is who the heck is actually in charge of Iran right now? And that's a very, very good question because we're getting a lot of this drama happening about whether there's a ceasefire going on, whether that was, you know, preempted because of talks that the Trump administration is having with the Iranians. The president came out and did say that happened. Some people are blaming,

you know, saying that it's a taco moment and it's just giving the president, you know, time to, you know, recalibrate the markets and, you know, and drive oil prices down. But the moment, thank you for that. Yeah, the moment that started, we had the Iranians come out and say, wait a minute, no, we're not talking to the Trump administration, even though it was very, very specific that the person that was claimed to be speaking to the Trump administration is the head of the Iranian parliament. Now, the head of the Iranian parliament is an interesting figure for me to be involved in this, because he is kind of like the IRGCist of all IRGC guys that are actually still left in the country. He was a former IRJC commander. He's a hardliner. Now, if he's being

named specifically, to me, that means that there's some other kind of play going on here. This is just personally what I think. I think right now, since they are on like their C or D level, you know, team in charge of the country, they don't even really know who's in charge. The people that are in charge right now, they wouldn't even be warming the bench. They would be the, you know, the junior high school kids that are getting ready in a few years to go up to the bench level. Jason, when I first saw this about him being the guy, my thought was, well, that's a genius move if it is what I think it is. You got the hardliner, you want him out. Oh, man, we have been talking to him all day long. He's, you know, he's really, because everybody who wants

that position or anybody who hates America and does not want us to be, they'll kill him. I mean, save bullets for the U.S. Right. It's like. It's like Game of Thrones, but it's the game of Mullahs right now inside Iran. And they're all looking over their shoulders today because of this wondering, wait, are you talking to the Americans? I thought you were. It's basically the who's on first game that's being played right now in Iran. I personally think this is the entire reason. It's sowing discord and they're getting ready for that moment where the president gives that signal to the people that are on the ground to actually

go out. Can I play a quick video from the CENTCOM. Yeah. One of the CENTCOM memorals. This is from a CENTCOM Admiral Cooper about what stage, it's a hint to what stage we're coming to. Listen to this. Continue to heed our advice.

We've had multiple messages that have come out that have said, beware. The government doesn't care about you. They're launching missiles and drones from populated areas. You need to stay inside for right now. Third, there will be a clear signal at some point as the president. has indicated for you to be able to come out. So that sounds like that is still the plan, and there will be a signal to the ground troops,

as the Crown Prince told you in an interview several weeks ago, that they will at some point come out. So that is a very, very good sign and signal, and it lines up with this, you know, game of mullahs and the Abbott and Costella skit that's happening right now with the Iranian leadership. So, you know, I have a hard time deciding whether I think the new mullah is actually dead or alive.

I mean, if I were him, I wouldn't allow a picture or a video taken of me because I'd be afraid they're going to be able to track what's behind me and know exactly where I am. You know what I mean? Yeah. Any credible anything on him being dead or alive? No, which is interesting. The only thing even close to any kind of communication whatsoever, it's interesting you say that. Al-Arabia, which is a Saudi-based news organization, they just reported today that it is actually

the Supreme Leader who approved talks at a potential deal. Even though the President of the United States said, no, it wasn't the supremelyer they're dealing with. Right. So it's like, are you on first? No, you're on second. Wait, what? I have never seen fog of war like this.

I know. It's got to be intentional. I wonder how much of it is because. of social media. You know, you have, I mean, we've never seen war reported like this. We would have just had to get all of our news from the three sources. You know, we would have watched MSNBC or CNN and Fox. And it wouldn't have been so varied.

It would have been very, very close. And we'd be seeing the same kind of, you know, the same footage because it would come from the same place. Now we're just getting it from people all over the world, people who are just making it up, people who are trying to sow chaos, people who might be absolutely honest and true and not part of a, you know, some sort of sciop operation. I mean, you just don't know. You just, I've never seen anything like it. You imagine when things get really rough, what it's going to be like, you know, give this, give this system another four years with AI.

Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. How are you going to be able to tell the truth? It's remarkable. It's going to be interesting, see how we figure all of this stuff out. Hey, let me give you something. I promised last hour, I told you I was going to tell you about the madness, the mighty, and the miracle. Let me give you a miracle here.

This is a science miracle. Or you could read it, you know, any way you want. You know, before the Enlightenment, we would write about something scientifically, and we would use the language of awe and fear and miracles. You know, before we had satellites and everything else. and we didn't know how the universe worked. If there was a sudden light in the sky, burning where no light should be burning, kings would take it as a warning,

armies took it as an omen, ordinary people looked up, wonder if history was about to turn, you know, whatever. Here we are again. And we're kind of in that time period where I don't know what this means. You know, you could look at it as,

you could look at it as scientific. It's a comet. It's whoever named it, wow, were they boring. It's named C-20206A-1. Wow, that's clever. Did C-2026A-1? Was that the person, the name that discovered it? We used to name it after the people who discovered it.

Anyway, it may not even survive. But if it does, it's going to be something spectacular. In just a matter of days, this, giant comet is going to make a run at the sun and not like, you know, make the loop around the sun. It's like diving. It's almost diving into the sun, you know, from a distance, but going right towards it. And then it'll come back around and it's so close it may not survive. It just might burn up.

Sun's gravity will tear it apart and it'll burn up and, you know, the heat from the sun will just erase everything. But we don't know. this has happened before, but really rarely. This is like taking an ice sculpture and throwing it into a blast furnace and seeing what comes out the other side. Not melted, but glowing, I guess. This is what this comment is about to attempt. And the reason why everybody's talking about it, because if it survives, and that's a big if,

this comment, they say, is going to be bright enough to be seen in the daylight. They say it will be as bright as the moon is during the day. And you have to go back a long, generations to say you witnessed something like this. 1843. There was another one, I think, in 1965, but that's it. I mean, it's not even once in a decade. These are the kinds of things that appear and then they disappear and lifetimes will pass before they come back. Which is why when they do, we tend to notice.

It's a big deal because comets don't usually make it. They flare, they brighten, they promise something, and then they burn out because they get too close to the sun. So this is supposed to come back around from the other side of the sun next week, right before Easter. Again, we don't know what's going to happen. You know for certainty what's going to happen. But if the comet holds together, this is the miraculous part. This is just going to be amazing.

if it survives the sun's pole and the furnace of the sun, they say it's going to stretch a tail millions of miles long and it will hang out in the daylight like the sun. I mean, sorry, like the moon. It'll be something none of us have ever seen before. And it's just a time when science, becomes mythical and magical and, you know, it's not just a story in space. I mean, we're living in a time right now where everything feels engineered and predicted and

managed and we're told what's coming and we're told exactly what's going to happen and then none of that stuff happens. But it's all explainable, but it's not really all explainable. First thing is, will it survive or won't it? The honest answer is no idea. But if it does, it may become one of the most extreme. thing to see in the sky that we've seen in our lifetimes, or it may disappear without a trace, okay?

But for a brief moment, like right now, we're standing in the same place humanity has stood for thousands of years, looking up, waiting, and wondering if something extraordinary is about to reveal itself or quietly pass by. We'll watch next week. One of the things you learn when you have a dog is just how much you, you have a given take relationship. Whatever it is you get from your dog, loving affection, loyalty, companionship, even amusement, you got to give it back. You got to give it back. I mean, that happens in a lot of ways. But most important, I think it's the way you take care of them,

you know, the health, the overall happiness. There's no greater way to do that than give your dog the health food that he needs. Rough greens. When you feed him, it's not a dog food. It's a supplement. You put it on your dog's food. You sprinkle it on the food. You're adding the nutrients that are absolutely vital to your dog's health. I'm talking about things like probiotics and antioxidants and all the other nutritional stuff that's missing from the kibble food. I never thought. I thought we fed Uno really well, fed him really good food, you know, blah, blah, blah.

We started feeding him kibble, I mean, rough greens on his kibble. And not only did he like it more, I mean, he would run to his bowl, but he changed, physically he changed. Just try it.

can you point to any society that has been made better by an increased of Islamism? Chris Cuomo, everything I've ever done, everything I've ever said, everything I ever have believed is now in question. Because I agree with Chris Cuomo. I don't know what to do with that, Chris. Are you an agent of chaos? Are you trying to make everybody's head explode? Everybody's like, wait a minute, I can't agree with Chris Cuomo. what is happening. So I got that to deal with all day, and I didn't want to suffer alone,

so I gave that to you as my last thought for the day. We'll see you tomorrow. May God save the Republic.
