I want to talk to you a little bit about Patriot Mobile.
Sadly, our economy has become dominated by businesses who hate our guts.
The woke mob, which is becoming more mob-like and less woke.
These days, if you are a mobile service, if you have a mobile service,
you're one of the big guys.
You are probably helping pay for things like Planned Parenthood.
That's why I like Patriot Mobile.
They are not taking any of their money, the profits that they make.
and give them to left-wing causes.
They are all things that we believe in, like the Constitution,
rule of law, parents are superior to teachers, you know, those kinds of things.
Switch to Patriot Mobile.
You'll send a loud, clear message.
Can you hear us now?
And your work with people who like you, want to serve you,
and give you the best service possible and the best price possible.

Hello America, welcome to the
Glenn Beck program. First of all, our
thoughts, prayers, wishes, and our
hands are available for those
in the affected states
of the tornadoes this weekend. It was
really, really bad. Meanwhile,
there's a political tornado going on. We'll get
to that in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about burn a launcher.
You know,
when I was growing up,
if looks could kill,
my mother would have been a serial
killer. But
she only would have only happened with her
kids, so she would have only killed three.
Looks can't kill.
A mugger might think twice if he gets one of, you know,
those looks from your mother, but he's probably
not going to, which is why
mom needs a burner launcher.
Burn a launcher, the
non-lethal alternative to safeguarding
your home that will send potential
threats running in the opposite direction.
It's legal in all 50 states,
no permits or background checks,
required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18. The Berna launcher. Powerful deterrence
like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60-foot range, and one shot can incapacitate an attacker
for up to 40 minutes. Burnah, proud to be American, manufactured in Fort Wayne, Indiana,
really strong on the First Amendment. Give the gift of safety and security. It's a great
Mother's Day gift for your wife, your daughter, your mom. Anybody in your life that may not
want firearms, but wants protection.
This is it.

Oh, well, what a, what a weekend it was.
What a weekend it was.
The constant protests, I guess, are the big story over the weekend.
And it doesn't seem to be stopping.
to be the only thing that Americans want to do these days is protest the right of Israel to
exist. That's apparently controversial now. It's amazing to see this happened. We're seeing
university after university after university step up and decide that the hill they're going to die on
is the hill that supports Hamas. This is apparently in a popular position in this country.
And an incredible moment that we're in right now.
Let's go to SOT 1 if we could on our list.
I'm not sure if these are available.
I'm a little bit of a technical issue here, but here we go.
This is a, and we're having an Islamic prayer being held.
I have this album.
Just bought it on vinyl.
Now this is the quietest of the protests around the,
the country. Most of them were not really
like this. Outside of the
White House Correspondence dinner,
there was more
protesting going on.
This is...
Missing the visuals here.
You have...
So bizarre.
So this is someone dressed as a
Israeli soldier
and there's
a bunch of blindfolded
shirtless people who get hit
by blue powder and collapse.
Which is making it a
I mean, I mean, no, it's, I think this is
this is, you know, the Israeli
killing the white man, which is supposed to be the
Palestinian, but they're white men, most of them.
Yeah.
Which I think just makes it, you know,
even more confusing for anybody who is
who is watching.
You know, I got to go back to the Islamic prayer.
I mean, I don't know about you, but
I miss it sometimes.
Could you play the, could you go back and play
the Islamic prayer for me, please.
If you happen to be watching the blaze,
I just want to describe the
Islamic prayer here is
everybody's on a prayer rug
there in at Columbia University.
It's a beautiful, beautiful scene.
And
Akbar?
Yes.
And
this guy is very, very popular
in the Upper East Side.
So you have
people, you know, on a prayer rug, you know, we had to go to the Supreme Court to get the
coach to be able to pray, you know, by himself on the field after a football game. But
this is totally cool. And the nice thing is they're including women in the call to prayer,
which is very popular in the Middle East. They love it when women get down and pray right
alongside the men. It is, it's wonderful. It's truly, truly wonderful. Now, let's go to
Cut four. This is in Canada.
This is in Vancouver.
We demand of three Palestine from the river to the sea.
Right.
Okay, can we stop there for just a second?
Stu, could you just explain the geography of Israel?
I know there's the sea on the west coast of Israel.
What's on the east coast of Israel or the easternmost, you know, furthest east you could go?
That would be a river, Glenn.
So what would be, yeah, what's interesting about this is that's how you know it's a aspirational call for unity from the river to the sea.
Right. So that, you know, Palestine will just take over everything from Israel.
There'll be no Jews left.
That's the call for unity.
It's aspirational.
Okay.
It's an aspirational call for unity.
That sounds very specific, that language like that's what they're saying on college campuses.
And Rashida Taleb.
out of her mouth oh yeah okay good so an aspirational call for unity the only
thing you could be unified on is get rid of all the Jews because that means
there's no Israel yeah so no two-state solution yeah we don't that was another
slogan no two-state we want everything that was the chance right that was
coming down well but see they see they make it clear they want everything and
We don't want no, no, one state.
So they've got double negative there, which means they want a two-state solution.
And they say we want everything.
And that must include a one state and a two-state solution.
So I think it's very, very clear.
Now, can we go on and play what they were saying in Canada?
It was cut for.
God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. You know, I love it when the Nazis are like, long live the Holocaust, you know.
Hey, long live, those cool, really cool showers and oven system that we came up with.
You know, that's a clunky slogan.
Yeah, it's a clunky slogan.
But a true slogan.
But the equivalent of what they're saying.
The equivalent of what they're saying on these college campuses, the ones that everybody in the media seems to.
be supporting.
Long live freaking October 7th.
I mean, could you be any more?
I don't know, Glenn, is this one still borderline?
Is this one anti-Semitic?
Or are we not sure?
Is this an aspirational call for unity?
I can't quite tell.
Well, we know it's brave.
We know it's brave.
It's, well, it was October 7th was a very brave day.
It was brave and heroic what they did, really.
Really?
Brave and heroic.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, how, I mean, do you think it takes courage to go molest?
slaughter and then burn babies?
Sure, sure.
Takes courage to do that.
You might get caught and then seen for the monster
that you really are.
But in this case, no,
they're celebrated. So
it's brave and historic.
Now, in California
and Cal Poly, cut five.
Does this have audio with it?
I can't. We're seeing the
video of this. Apparently no sound
to it. But yet again,
graffiti inside the hallways here.
Some words we maybe don't say on the radio.
Are they grown up words?
They're grown up words.
They're big boy, big girl words.
And yeah, this has been just people ruining the facilities and it's very messy and there's
graffiti everywhere inside the building.
It's wonderful.
This is another answer to remember.
Kill all the Jews.
Kill all the Jews.
It helps you remember that.
Now, beyond killing all the Jews, there's something new that they're all for.
Cut 38, please.
This is in Germany, of all places.
The big Palestinian uprising in Germany this weekend.
And what are they calling for?
Doesn't sound good.
It never sounds good in German.
No, well, that's not in German.
It's in Arabic.
But, you know, whenever you get somebody in Germany going,
They don't want it.
No matter what language it is, you know it's trouble.
Don't worry, they were just calling for a caliphate.
So they're not wanting to bring the Nazis back.
They just want a caliphate.
Aspirational.
So, yeah, very inspirational.
Now, can we go, if I could just get the drag queens and the caliphate people, you know,
if I could just get them together, a one-stop shop,
I think we would be set.
Here's cut 30.
Today what we're going to do is we're going to show free Palestine.
Can I hear that?
Oh, the kids.
Oh.
You want to show it.
You're a drag queen and you know it.
Oh, see.
This is the uniting message.
We can get the kids involved too because we have a drag queen.
And the drag queen, if you're a drag queen and you know it, shout free Palestine.
So it's one place we can get both of those things where we can all come together.
Yeah, that's an amazing clip.
I think now this is just me speculating clip because I'm not a, I'm not a travel agent.
I don't work for a tourism board.
But I do wonder how that particular event would go down if held in Gaza.
Would it be different?
Because they are cheering on Palestine.
So obviously there's some affinity there, but the drag queen story hour group reading to a bunch of, let's say, Gaza and children, how would that work out in Gaza itself?
You know, it is funny that you should ask that, Stu.
You know, you may not be a travel agent or work for some sort of tourism.
But you are a thinker.
Thank you.
You are a thinker.
And that's really what counts.
Here's the good news.
The protesters are going to love it.
They're going to love it.
What happened in Iraq just this weekend?
They made it illegal to be on the spectrum, the sexual spectrum at all.
You're either a man or a woman.
Men have sex with women.
Women have sex with men.
Now, that's not all the time because, you know,
there's a shortage of women over in the middle of women.
East. Sometimes they gotta get a little
them going on with a younger man. You know
what I mean? You know what I'm saying?
So, but we don't talk about
that. I didn't say any of that.
I don't know what you're even talking about. Say what?
But, so they've, they've
outlawed now homosexuality, which is weird
because Mahmoud on Medinajad,
he said at one point,
I think it was at Columbia University,
when asked about them
gays, he said, we don't have any gay people in Iran.
And lo and behold, they're going to make that wish to come true.
So you got that going for you.
Also, by the way, they just killed their third, where is this story?
Their third TikToker, she was, no, seriously, she was, no, she was, well, she's dead.
She's dead.
She was a very popular influencer in Iran.
And she's a woman.
And she was shown dancing.
But she wasn't just dancing.
She was wearing jeans and they were a little too tight.
Now, me personally, I don't mind, you know, some sort of law against jeans that are too tight on some people.
You know what I'm saying?
I, you know, you walk around Walmart once in a while and you're like, who those really don't work on you, honey.
But I don't want to see you executed.
But she was executed because they were a little too tight and too suggestive.
And she was laying in a bed.
Well, she was reading her son a good night story.
But she was still in those jeans laying on a bed.
So they had to execute her over the weekend.
So the crackdown continues.
And hey, all you people on campus with your.
Oh, like, but a little rug prayer thing with the woman right next to you.
You know how popular that's going to be.
And all you drag queens, oh, they love you.
They love you.
In fact, I am going to set up a personal fund.
If you're a drag queen, if you're a gay activist, and you're out because you love it and you show it, clap your hands,
I'm going to go ahead and give you airfare from wherever you live here in the United States to the Gaza Strip.
Okay?
And bring your pamphlets.
Bring your pamphlets.
Bring your best wigs and your spiky high heels because they are going to love you there.
And when you stop writing us or calling us, we'll know exactly how much they love you over there.
So maybe we could send that as a message to all of your friends.
over here. What the hell is wrong with you? Just a quick public service announcement from the
Glenn Beck program. Now let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's relief factor
sleep. Do you remember when you were a teenager? Didn't matter how much sugar, caffeine. I mean,
you hit your head on the pillow and you were out the whole night. Good sleep, truly wasted on the
young, I'm afraid. Now you're older, you're wiser. And a lot of
lot more tired. So you're not getting good sleep regularly and I'll bet it'd be nice to, you know,
get a break from those sleepless nights. That's what relief factor sleep is for. Just like the
regular relief factor that you take for pain, relief factor sleep is 100% drug-free. So you get a
good night's sleep that you really need without feeling like he got hit by a truck the next morning.
With its blend of natural ingredients, it's designed to promote healthy sleep by reducing anxiety
and distress, improving mood and promoting relaxation.
I know from experience that it works.
Feel the difference the first night.
The first bottle is 1995.
Unleashed the power of great sleep by calling 800 the number four relief.
800 the number four relief or go to Relieffactor.com.
Dream big and sleep tight.
10 seconds.
Station ID.
New Glenn, you were running through those wonderful stories for the Middle East.
And you mentioned Iran and Ahmadinejad and a bunch of stories that
happened in Iraq. And you kind of went back and forth. And I don't know if people followed that
exactly because it was Iran who had said there was no gays years and years ago at Columbia.
And both of the stories banning homosexuality and the TikTok are being executed, both
happen in Iraq. And what I found fascinating about that is we should be able to tell the
difference, right? Like we were supposedly helping out this country so that it did not end up like
Iran. And now here we are. It's only a trillion dollars. It's only a trillion dollars.
You get what you pay for.
You want to go in there half ass like that?
You get what you pay for.
Now, $2 trillion.
$2 trillion.
That might have had somebody who just mildly hates gays.
But no, no.
Yeah, we didn't do the job.
And so what we did is we empowered the head of the snake.
We made the snake even more powerful, which I love.
The head of the snake over in the Middle East is Iran.
and now it's now you have Iranian Shias all over in Iraq and so they're getting you know
they're doing the thing that Shia's love and that is kill people that disagree with them
wow that's weird because that's how that's almost like the left here in America oh I see
what they have in common they just like silencing people throwing them in jail or killing
them if they disagree with them wow too bad we can't get them to agree on the same
of people.
Or we should get the two of them together.
Oh, because they'll like each other a lot.
No, no, no.
I think the left when they get there, they'll be like,
hi, everybody.
We brought, we brought birthday cakes and candles,
and we're going to decorate this mosque all up.
And they'll love it in the Shiite world.
Yeah, no.
These regimes that you're talking about over there, too,
they're they're not the ones to fear it's it's Donald Trump Trump is the one to fear like that's the guy
if you have to really be terrified about something coming down the road it's definitely not the
Islamic extremist regimes we're discussing it's instead the the the the tyranny of the you know
the real estate developer from Manhattan yeah you know he wants he's I mean he's a man of tyranny
it's clear uh he hates them gay so much he was the first
president to, you know, open a party openly and say, hey, I'm going to appoint gay people openly.
I'm going to have the first gay person speak on the podium.
I'm going to be the first president that actually runs and saying, I don't have a problem
with gay people.
You know, you've got to fear him.
But the guy who wants to chop your pee-pee off and throw you off a building, you know,
that happens to be a lot, but coming across our bar.
border right now. Don't fear him. There's nothing to fear there. Nothing to worry about.
Ow. Sorry, I was just thinking of somebody chopping the peepee. Here's Lear Capital. Lear Capital is our
sponsor this half hour. Let's say you have, you know, an employee. And here's what he did. He spent
way too much of the company's money, a bunch of which he actually stole. Stu, if this is sounding
familiar, I know. In fact, he ran the company in huge debt, ensuring that the stock was worth less and
every day and on top of that he was a real jerk about it to all the other employees beneath him.
What would you do with that employee?
Well, if your answer is you'd elect him to Congress, or you'd elect him again to the White House,
he got a pretty good idea of how things are run in our country.
You need to protect your money from clowns like this.
I mean, they are practically the caliphate for money.
No, money will be destroyed.
I bought my first gold with Lear Capital.
When Rush Limbaugh was on and I was not on the radio, and since then, my investment has more than quadrupled.
I'd like to recommend Lear Capital to you.
I want you to do your own homework, but they can help you save your savings.
Do it now.
Call them.
24-hour risk-free purchase.
Call them now at 800-957 gold.
800-9-57 gold.
I don't know about you, but when I hear Allah Akbar, I think God is.
great and that's why he'll destroy that other imposter that's saying kill people and
anyway how are you welcome to the program we're glad you're here Pat Gray joins us
fresh off a student protest how was the weekends do or Pat oh was was protestastic
oh really yeah was it protested really which one did you choose to to protest at I
I went to the one at Harvard.
At Harvard.
Yeah.
Oh, did you raise the flag?
Mm-hmm.
I helped.
Yeah, I helped.
Lower the American flag first.
Yeah.
Which had to be taken out of the way and then raise the Palestinian flag.
Amen.
Yeah.
It's a beautiful moment for all of us.
What about the flag for tolerance?
Well, all those colors and like the, it was the rainbow, but then they've changed
into like 943 colors and directions and diagonal lines.
Did you get that one?
Yeah, we got that one too.
Yeah.
Good.
Good.
Which is interesting because in the Gaza Strip, you know, those people would be killed.
And so it's great that they support the Palestinian cause anyway.
I love that.
Very, very tolerant.
Selfless.
Yeah.
Very selfless.
Yeah.
It is very selfless.
So, you know, I was looking at the trend here on the summers.
And there's something here that I don't know if anybody else is caught.
I mean, in 2017.
in the summer, you know, we still had the women's march going on.
That was 2017.
You know, that was the big protest that year.
Then the March for Our Lives, which was against guns in the, in 2018.
2019 became very busy because you had Greta, you know, very upset about, how dare you?
And the climate change and everything else.
And so she got a bunch of people to block traffic and throw soup at really expensive paintings, which I think.
I think, you know, it really turned me.
I was like, I don't know if I trust this, you know, little puny pipsqueak.
And then she will, like, you know, we've got to destroy paintings.
Yeah.
And the soup.
And I thought, okay.
Then the, oh, by the way, that year also we had, we set Portland on fire.
I think we set Minneapolis on fire.
Chaz was built in Seattle.
How's that doing now?
Up in Seattle.
Well, I don't even want to ask.
I'm sure it's doing well.
Then in 2020, we had the COVID protests, which couldn't be done because of COVID.
It was really, it was wrong.
But if you happen to want to march with BLM and loot some stores, you know what I'm saying,
then it was okay.
Then it was okay.
21, we had the masks vaccines.
22, it starts to slow down.
Strangely, after Joe Biden is elected, it kind of, you know, the mask and the vaccines
and nobody really pays attention.
Then 22, you know, the Putin stooge.
You know, if you're for, if you're, if you're not willing to send all of your money,
all of your money over to Ukraine, you love Putin.
Then 23, last summer was kind of a yawn fest, which I think it was kind of like,
hey, let's just take a break because we got a big, big summer coming up.
And if our guy loses, we're going to have to just keep up in the ante every,
every summer.
So this year is the summer of global jihad.
So that's great.
Next summer, I'm not sure, but I think it's the summer of Satan's neat marches, which will display the rainbow flag, but it won't look exactly the same.
It's exactly the same, except it's all black.
And like the caliphate flag, you know, but that has right whiting on it, right, white writing.
So, you know, all the diverse colors, even the white stuff just fades right directly.
to black. So Satan is neat coming next summer. Make sure you prepare your kids in college.
I was thinking of the, the t-shirt we made a while ago that's just says learn-then protest.
The order is important. And I feel like it really applies today. It seems more relevant than ever right now, doesn't it?
Kind of feels relevant. Are you saying that you big fat dummies? Yeah. Yeah. Kind of saying that.
Big fat dummies. Learn then-protest.com, by the way, if you want to get the shirt.
Because it's something you could wear to the protests
because I don't think they know what the order is.
I think they're at least doing one of the things.
They're protesting.
There's no evidence that they're learning.
But they should know that the steps are clear.
You need to learn about the topic you're protesting.
And then you go to the protest.
Well, you saw the...
They have the receipts on learning.
Okay?
They have the receipts.
$90,000 a year.
And they're learning.
They're learning a lot.
You saw the girls interviewed last week.
week, right, at some of those protests where they're asked, why are you here?
What about the Palestinian situation has, you know, motivated you to get out and speak on
their behalf?
And none of them knew.
Not one of them understood why they were there.
In fact, they said, yeah, I'm not that educated on it.
Then why are you standing there with a placard?
why? They don't know. They have no idea.
So yeah, I think it's really important. Learn
Then protest. It would be nice.
It would be nice. It would be a nice change.
I think it would solve a lot of these problems.
And again, you guys were, I know, won over by the soup on the paintings.
Myself, I like to at least miss one flight.
I want to be on a road on the way to the airport.
And I want to miss that flight. And then I think, wow.
The gauzens are the good guys in this.
Yeah, because there was people laying in the roadway.
Yeah.
Is that why you...
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah.
I love that.
That convinces me.
Oh, every time.
I've talked about this for decades because of the protests in Houston.
The dumped garbage in intersections.
Man, that won me over to the janitors downtown in their plight.
I wanted them to make $1,000 an hour after they dumped garbage in my way.
I loved it.
I loved it.
So it's weird because I...
I didn't see all those protesters.
I just noticed, I was near campus this weekend.
I just noticed how many speed bumps they put on the roads all around the campus.
So I didn't see the dying at all.
Anyway, by the way, there is Marianne Allwan.
This is a very sad tragic story.
This is from AP.
Merriam Al-Wan, she figured the worst was over when the New York City police in riot gear, mind you,
arrested her on the Columbia Union.
university campus and then loaded her and others onto the bus and held them in custody for
hours hours but the next evening yeah she thought it was over but it wasn't the next evening
she received a curt email from the university and I'm talking curt is she and other students
it said were being suspended for their arrests at the Gaza Solidarity encampment and this is a tactic
that a lot of colleges are using now.
You know, they're just saying,
hey, we want you out of here.
And so now the student's rights to protest for these things.
And there's faculty that are standing with the protesters,
and they're like, hey, they shouldn't be forced out of school.
What do you mean you're going to suspend them?
And the terms of the suspension vary from campus to campus at Columbia.
And it's affiliated Bernard College for Women.
Al-Wan and dozens more were arrested on April 18th,
barred from campus and classes,
unable to attend in person or virtually,
and banned from the dining halls.
I mean, where are you going to eat?
I mean, it's practically a food desert there in Manhattan.
Questions about her academic future remains.
Will she be allowed to take final exams?
What about financial aid, graduation?
Columbia says the outcomes will be decided at disciplinary here.
And she and her attorney said, this is very dystopian.
I mean, all we were calling for was chanting was death to the Jews.
And now we can't, now they suddenly don't want us on campus.
That's weird.
Huh?
That's weird.
That is weird.
You would think we would tolerate death to Jews' chance, wouldn't you?
At a major American university, you would.
In fact, you'd welcome it, right?
Because when we said never again, we didn't mean never again.
We meant until 2024.
Yeah, never good until now.
Yeah, yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
An attorney for the Palestinian Legal Fund, which is, gosh, I'd love to know who set this all up for them.
But they're helping groups all over college campuses.
And they filed a civil suit, a civil rights case.
against the school accusing Columbia of not doing enough to really address the discrimination
against the Palestinian students.
Yeah.
They're the victims.
There are the victims.
Amen.
Yeah.
And the level of punishment, according to the attorney, is not even just draconian.
Okay?
It's like over the...
I love attorneys that say it's like it's like over the top callousness.
Is that worse than draconian?
Because it seems like draconians worse than that.
Yeah.
I mean,
Coraliness.
Think about what the word callousness means.
Like you have calluses on your hand.
Right.
Well, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's that bad.
So it's the,
wow.
That's bad.
Yeah.
It's bad.
It's not good.
No,
that's not.
Draconian.
What is?
I just conjures up.
I don't know.
That's about Dracula.
Dracula is not even real.
Caluses are real.
That's true.
Yeah.
And the only real Dracula is count Chocula.
which he produces incredibly delicious cereal.
Oh, seriously.
Right.
Which is not a bad thing.
Not a bad thing at all.
So Draconian is a positive word.
It means chocolate.
Well, thank you.
Definition chocolate.
Me now.
Chocolate.
Right.
Right.
Palestinian legal filed the complaint Thursday at the U.S.
Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights.
Oh, it's going to be fixed there.
The four pro-Palestinian students and the student group of Columbia students for
justice in Palestine.
are the real victims.
The group calls for an investigation into the university's handling of alleged discrimination and harassment against pro-Palestinian students by Columbia students.
As a Palestinian student, I've been harassed, docs shouted down and discriminated against by my fellow students and professors,
simply because of my identity and my commitment to advocating for my own rights and freedoms.
and of course taking over the campus illegally and pitching a tent there and then just causing
mayhem on campus and chanting death to the Jews.
But other than that, they're just wanting their own civil rights.
They've done nothing wrong.
Nothing wrong.
That's wonderful.
Can we hit on this doxing thing that they keep complaining about?
Like this big complaint that all these protests are upset because people are coming.
They're taking pictures of them.
They're on video.
And the doxing they're talking about is potentially.
leaking the fact that they were at these protests where, you know, the Jews were being threatened,
that might be leaked to future employers. And that is, of course, very, very wrong. This, by the way,
coming from this same group of people that after the Charlottesville rally went through every
frame of video to try to identify every person who was there. And I will remind you the story of
Cole White, Cole White, a guy who went to the Charlottesville protest.
and then was tracked across the country
and eventually pressured his employer
for him to be fired.
Is this the hot dog guy?
He worked at a hot dog stand.
They got a man fired from a hot dog stand
because he went to,
I don't know if the hot dogs were racist or not.
I'm not 100% sure on that.
But now these people who are going to go get jobs
as lawyers and doctors
and all these other things,
they're worried about them not being able to get employment after they freaking got a guy fired from a hot dog stand.
I have no sympathy for you whatsoever.
I mean, you know, it is a double whammy with him.
He not only was a Nazi, but his last name also was white.
Oh, yeah.
And, you know, that's always a problem.
Too much, too much.

Stu, I just
a hefty hello to you today
because I know it's, you know,
it's a big occasion for you, you know.
It is?
Well, yeah, you showed up for work.
I think that's a, I think that's a very special.
I've been trying to cure myself of that habit, but still keeps going on.
So it's kind of like our anniversary show, you know, once in a while you show up.
And I'm like, oh, wow, it's special. Let's have cake.
If there was cake here, I'd show up more often.
Well, maybe there is. You just don't get in in time because I have the same affinity for cake.
All right.
Coming up, we're going to talk a little bit about the Supreme Court and also,
also Donald Trump's
Donald Trump's court case
with Andy McCarthy.
Oh, he's great. He knows this stuff.
He's great. Better than anybody.
Yeah. When you get into the nitty-gritty
of all this and it's so
freaking complicated. It really
is. It's so complicated. All the things they're
coming after him with. But it does seem
and this is maybe a question we get an answer
to from Andy, but it does seem
that like this is it.
It's this one New York thing
and everything else is going to fall after the election.
which is an incredible outcome for Trump.
And this is a weakest case.
Yeah.
If this thing comes down, I mean, that would be,
it would be amazing for this to be all over because they overreached.
And the Supreme Court coming out and hopefully not doing any damage to, you know,
the presidents that come after this one.
But we'll see Annie McCarthy next.
Let me tell you about home title lock.
Do you know about house stealing?
This is when a scammer fakes your signature on a document.
And then they transfer the home that you live in that you own over to them.
And then they're borrowing against your equity.
And, you know, like this is a major problem.
And there's $16 trillion of available home equity out there right now.
It's an all-time high.
And, you know, of course, our home values go up and people get more equity.
And they think they're safe.
But actually, they're the biggest target of this.
because if you have a lot of equity, this is where all the money is.
Like they're going after the giant pots of money.
That's you.
They see you as a giant pot of money.

Annie McCarthy, a National Review Contributing Editor,
the Institute's senior fellow and a former chief assistant U.S. Attorney General.
We won't hold this against him.
He was a former U.S. attorney in the district of Manhattan, so let's leave that alone.
Andy, how are you?
Good. I'm doing great. How are you?
Very, very good.
So let's start with the big story, I think, and that is the Supreme Court,
and what they were arguing last week.
Can you give me your honest?
take on what what this is really about for the future beyond Donald Trump and how you think this is
going to affect what is happening with Donald Trump?
Glenn, I think it's important that you frame the question that way because it seemed to
me, and I reread the transcript over the weekend after listening to the oral argument,
the court is a lot more concerned about the presidency than about.
of Trump. Sure, it should be. Yeah, and it's an important point to make because a lot of the coverage
has been this hysteria over whether, you know, the Trump-packed Supreme Court is in the tank
forum and they're going to get rid of Jack Smith's prosecution. I don't think that's going to happen
at all. It's possible that Smith won't get his case to trial depending on what the court does.
what I think the court's going to do is send the case back to Judge Chutkin, who was the trial judge in Washington,
with instructions to sort out what things in the indictment against Trump are what you would call official acts
that might arguably be immune from prosecution because they go to the core responsibilities of the presidency.
And what are private acts or private wrongs that he would not have immune?
for, even though they happened during his presidency.
But the upshot of the questioning of the lawyers, including Trump's lawyer, and this is
particularly by Justice Barrett and Justice Kagan, Trump's lawyer admitted that there's a lot
of conduct charged in the indictment that is private conduct, that really wouldn't be covered
by an immunity claim, even though Trump's been saying a lot of stuff about absolute,
complete immunity. And I think the concessions he made in the argument that is John Sauer,
Trump's lawyer, would be enough if Smith was willing to tailor his indictment down to the things
that Sauer conceded, they could go ahead with a trial on just those acts. He'd lose a lot of
evidence, but he probably should. So what is some of the acts that could fall under, you know,
private and so you could prosecute and and what are the acts that are the president and you don't
prosecute yeah so the the one bright line we can take away from this is that there seems to be
consensus that there is a a divide between office seeking and the carrying out of the duties of an office
So if something is purely in the nature of trying to get reelected, that's deemed to be private because it's not part of the duties of the presidency.
It would be the same for anyone who was seeking office, whether that person was an incumbent or not.
And then there are other things that are clearly presidential.
So just to give some solid examples that came out of the argument, Trump's lawyer conceded that,
If Trump made a private scheme with private lawyers to get slates of electors designated for him
and to supply documents to the Congress suggesting that they were the authentic actual slate of electors
designated by a state, that would be private conduct because it's purely office-seeking,
and he carried it out only with private lawyers.
On the other hand, there's an allegation in the indictment
that Trump tried to use the Justice Department
to signal to states that there were serious concerns about fraud
and considered both removing the Attorney General
when he got pushback
and considered sending a letter that they never sent from the Justice Department
to the state of Georgia to tell them that they needed
to do more scrutiny over what happened in the popular election.
Trump argues very strongly, and I think the court will probably go along with this,
that that is the president's control over the Justice Department is purely a presidential act
that should have no part in a criminal prosecution.
So those are the kinds of things that the court is talking about sorting out.
But Andy, didn't?
when Trump sat another group of electors or tried to, that's what the friends of Ders
did. I don't remember all of the attorneys in the 2000 election. That's what they were recommending
to be done. You have to do that or you have no case. Yeah. Let me just be clear, Glenn,
they're not saying that Trump wouldn't have a defense at trial.
What we're talking about now is purely immunity.
That is, could he prevent the trial from happening in the first place?
I think that there's significant defenses to the fraudulent electors claim,
beginning with the fact that the electors themselves didn't think they were fraudulent.
They thought they were contingent.
They thought that basically they were sitting in as the,
slate of electors in the event that Trump prevailed either in the state courts or with the state
legislature to throw out the popular election, then that would activate. But they weren't trying
to fool anyone into saying that they were the actual electors that had been certified by the
states. Can he get a fair trial on that if indeed he has to go to court? Well, I think it's tough
for him to get a fair trial in Washington. Why isn't, why can't someone make the
case here? Why can't his people make the case that you can't get a fair trial with the jury pool
in New York or in Washington, D.C.? I think Trump's problem is he's too famous in some ways.
I mean, the problem is that unlike almost any other defendant, he goes into, you know, one of the
things that they can always say about him is he's the most famous guy in the world, and no matter
where you had the case, you would have the same pretrial.
publicity problems, and they kind of reject out of hand the thought that because a jurisdiction
votes substantially against Trump as a political matter, that that means they can't be fair to him
as a legal matter. You know, you can debate that all you want about whether that's a sensible
distinction to draw or not, but it is the distinction the courts draw. Okay, so what do you think
is coming down the pike on this?
I think the, go ahead.
Yeah, I think that they will send the case back to Judge Chuck in with instructions to go through the indictment and figure out what's a public act and what's a private act.
If Smith wants to fight on that, then he's never going to get the trial prior to Election Day, which of course is his big aim, because this would still be a live immunity claim.
And immunity is one of the few things that you can actually appeal pre-trial.
So I don't see how he would get to trial.
But I do think Smith, if he wants to, and if it's that important to him to get to trial quickly,
he could say, you know what, I'm going to dispense with all of the acts that you say are immunized,
official presidential acts and we'll just go to trial on the private stuff.
It would be a weaker case for him, but it wouldn't be an unwinnable case.
And what is the punishment?
Well, that's an interesting question because that may depend on another Supreme Court case this term, the one that they argued a week before on the obstruction statute that's key to Trump's case.
That obstruction statute has a 20-year penalty, and it's the two main counts in the indictment against Trump.
The other two counts only have, I think, five-year penalties.
So if the Supreme Court says that it rejects the way the Justice Department has been using the obstruction statute, which it might,
then that would require probably a big overhaul of Smith's case because those charges are very important to him.
But if the court upholds that statute, which it also might, then you're looking at a potential of, you know, 40 years imprisonment.
Now, he won't get 40 years, but statutorily, there would be availability of 40 years.
years imprisonment on those charges, and I think 10 on the other two. The other two are fraud
on the United States and the civil rights charge. So he'd be looking at, you know, statutorily
50 years imprisonment, which would indicate under the sentencing guidelines that he would get,
I would think, you know, four, five, six years of a sentence if he gets convicted on those
charges. Unbelievable. You know, last week, the Biden administration was
making the case, well, Donald Trump's the only one that's ever broken the law. That's why we've
never had this before. That's such crap, and we all know it. Why haven't we had this problem
before? I think a lot of the criminal, the potentially prosecutable criminal conduct has come up
late in presidential terms. Like, for example, with Clinton, the pardon scandal happened as he was
going out the door. And I was in the Justice Department at the time.
there was a, you know, there was over a year of pretty intense debate within the Justice Department
about whether he ought to be charged with bribery or not in connection with those pardons.
But I think there's a, there's always been, maybe this has changed now, but there's always been a current of, like,
when a new administration comes in, particularly if it's a new administration of a different party,
they don't want to revisit what happened with the last guy.
They want to just go ahead on their own stuff.
you know, this old idea of, you know, we're looking forward, we're not looking back.
And I think that that certainly had a lot to do with why the Bush Justice Department didn't prosecute Clinton.
And I think with Obama, there was a lot of rhetoric during the 2008 campaign about war crimes against Bush and all that stuff.
But when they got into power, they not only weren't interested in prosecuting anyone on war crimes.
I mean, they reopened the CIA investigation, but then they closed it.
but they actually ended up adopting a lot of Bush-Cheney counterterrorism.
So, you know, I think there's a lot of rhetorical campaign stuff about how, you know,
lock her up and we're going to put these guys in jail, but it doesn't come to pass.
I actually think Trump is serious about it this time because he sees what they've done to him.
And that's why I thought it was amusing in the Supreme Court argument for the government lawyers to get up and say,
You know, you don't have to worry about this.
This is just sui generous with Trump.
It'll never happen again.
And in the meantime, Trump is ahead in the polls, and he's running as the retribution candidate.
He's promising if he gets in, he's going to do this stuff, right?
So it's an amazing time to be alive, right?
More with Andy McCarthy here in just a second.
Stand by.
First, I want to talk to you about Rough Greens.
Most dog lead lives of quiet desperation, not only because, you know, it's a deep philosophical thought.
on mortality. You know, they have that all the time. Also, I think they're just bored with
kibble food. Why shouldn't they be? Not only does it probably not taste all that great to you and me,
kibble food also is lacking in almost all of the nutrition that they really need. Now, here's the
answer. This only requires you just to sprinkle a little bit of rough greens on top of your
dog's food, and you cure both of those things. They love it, and it's a supplement.
Developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black, you sprinkle it on the food,
and your dog gets all of the vitamins, nutrients, minerals, probiotics, everything your dog needs.

Welcome back to Andy McCarthy.
Andy, tell me about how Alvin Bragg's doing so far.
It's a terrible case.
I think I wrote a column about this today called
how Judge Merchant is orchestrating Trump's conviction.
And I was reminded of, you know, the fact that Trump,
when he was a young guy, learned a lot about litigation from Roy Cohn.
and, you know, what Cohn used to say, his first principle of hardball litigation was,
don't tell me what the law is, tell me who the judge is.
And I think Trump knows that.
He knows it very well.
And as I'm closely watching the rulings that are being made and the arguments that the judge is allowing to be made,
it's clear that he has allowed brag.
Just so people understand, Glenn, this case is indicted as,
as a falsification of business records that occurred in the months of February through December of 2017.
Those are the only charges in the indictment.
The case is being presented to the jury as a conspiracy from 2015 through 2017 to steal the 2016 election
by violations of federal campaign finance law, which Alvin Bragg, as a state prosecutor, has
no authority to enforce. And that's the way the case has been framed by the prosecutor based on
orders from the judge. And that is the way that they are proceeding. And Judge, Judge Merchant
is allowing the state to prove that Michael Cohen pled guilty to two campaign finance offenses,
and that David Pecker, the AMI guy who ran the National Enquirer,
that they had a non-prosecution agreement from the Justice Department
and then paid a fine of $180,000 to the Federal Election Commission
for violating federal election law.
Now, it's a black-letter principle of law that one person's, let's say, person A,
his guilty plea is not admissible evidence against person B, even if A says that A and B acted together.
It's absolutely improper for this evidence of what Michael Cohn and David Pecker was thinking about the federal election laws,
the fact that they made deals with the government.
None of that stuff should come in.
the judge is letting it in, and he's not letting Trump explain to the jury that he, Trump,
was not charged by the Justice Department or the FEC, and the reason is obvious that these were
actually expenditures that were cognizable under the federal law.
And he's also not letting Trump call an expert witness to explain campaign law to the jury.
So what the jury is going to hear about campaign law is going to come from.
from Michael Cohen and David Tecker.
So it's a far.
How is this a fair trial if you can't call people
and you can't let the jury know truly the other side of it?
Yeah, it's look, it's even more fundamentally unfair than that
because in the United States,
under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution,
you are entitled, if you're going to
be charged with a felony, it's got to be on the basis of an indictment returned by a grand jury
that explicitly says what the charge is. The indictment in this case talks about, you know,
false bookkeeping in 2017. The case that's being presented to the jury is a conspiracy
to violate the federal election laws. It's mind-boggling that it's being permitted.
Wow. Andy, thank you so much. I appreciate it.
This would definitely lose in a higher court, don't you think?
I do, but I think it'll be cold comfort.
I mean, Harvey Weinstein's conviction just got reversed last week.
I think that's just three years.
Yeah.
All right.
Andy, thank you so much.
God bless.
Thank you.

More in just a second with the news of the day.
We have something exciting to announce next, so we'll stand by.
We do not build the parallel economy because we're glad that it.
it's necessary. I'm sure you miss the good old days when you thought everybody was kind of on the
same page. I mean, we didn't pal around on, you know, election Tuesdays and, you know, all vote the
same. But we all thought we, you know, we all believed in America. Companies now are swinging
for the fences with leftist ideology, but not Patriot Mobile. Their America's only Christian
conservative mobile phone company. And they believe in the kind of American.
that you believe in. Not that we've ever done it and done it perfectly. We've got a long way to go.
And we've learned a lot. But we still believe in striving to be that nation. They offer dependable
nationwide coverage so you can access any of the three major networks that everybody's on,
but you don't have to worry that part of your bill is going to fund leftist causes like Planned Parenthood.

of the Great Reset and Dark Future. Hello, Justin. How are you?
I'm doing low, Glenn. How are you? I'm good. So you have been working with Mercury
One on something for a while now, and I'm really excited that we can
announce it today. So have that. Yeah. I am so excited for this program. This is something that I have
been dreaming about for many years. Going back to when we first started looking at the Great Reset
and Davos and all of the things that the World Economic Forum have been up to, one of the things
that we learned about was something called the Young Global Leaders Program. This is a
program that the World Economic Forum has had in place for three decades where they've created a
pipeline of young leaders to go into the public policy field, into journalism, into business,
all embedded with the Davos ideology. So these are the cream of the crop people in business,
government, et cetera, all over the world, Justin Trudeau, Emmanuel Macron, the president of
France, people in the Biden administration, cabinet-level people have all gone through this program.
And we don't have anything like this on the right. We don't have any of the good guys doing
something like this. And so I came up with this idea and pitched it to Mercury 1 to create a program
that we're calling the Freedom Rising Fellowship Program, where we're going to train the best and brightest
young people, age 21 to 35, to create this pipeline into journalism, into business, into public
policy, especially in think tanks and government, so that people are embedded with the values of
the Constitution and the Declaration of the Constitution and the Declaration of the Constitution.
independence and that those people are going to be the next generation of American leaders that are
going to fight back against the Davos agenda.
And so that's the program that we're launching with Mercury 1.
Our very first session is starting in June.
We're in the recruiting process right now.
This is the first time we're speaking about this publicly.
It's going to be for a four-month period.
You're going to have to work your butt off, okay?
Because I'm going to work you like crazy if you want to be in this program.
You're going to be working closely with me and my team,
and we're going to teach you how to do everything from speak on radio and television
to writing op-eds for major print publications,
to informing lawmakers about new legislation,
and most importantly, to discover the new issues,
the emerging issues that no one has ever heard of,
like The Great Reset and ESG and things like that,
so that you can have a real impact on society.
So if you want to save the country, this is an opportunity to do that.
If you're interested, you can go to Justin Haskins.com.
Later in the week, you'll be able to go to mercury1.org and find more information about that.
And if you go to Justin Haskins.com right now, you can see all the information about the program and how to apply.
So, Justin, I know you're going to be teaching, you know, how to speak on the radio and you're going to have journalism, you know, experts there to teach journalism.
And I've noticed that I'm just looking down on my calendar.
There's not a single thing on my calendar all summer long.
Oh, you know, this is really awkward.
It's very awkward.
Yes, very awkward.
You know what, Glad you're always invited.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, sure.
In my own building, that's good.
Thank you.
Let me ask you this, Justin.
Are we, these new fellows, are they going to have access to,
access to the entire library of Mercury One and wall builders?
Yeah, absolutely.
And not only are they going to have access to it, they're going to be working.
They're essentially going to be part of my team.
They're going to be working on a day-to-day basis on new and emerging issues,
on doing research, on getting that research to public policymakers, on getting that information
to the public.
So this isn't just a training program.
This is like a job almost.
I mean, that's a huge commitment to take on.
But if you're willing to do it, you're going to be part of something really special.
And then after the program is over, we're going to create this for this one four-month session.
We're going to do many of these going forward.
You're going to become part of a network of young people, just like the WEF's Young Global Leaders Program,
so that you can help each other going forward for the rest of your career.
So that's really the vision that I have for building this out over the long run.
So it's like Yale's skull and bones without the evil.
Absolutely.
Yeah, good.
All right, good.
Yeah, you get it.
So what are you looking for in people, 21 to 34 years old, or 35 years old.
What are you looking for?
So the biggest thing is if you have a passion for public policy,
You need to be able to communicate, especially write and do research.
But the biggest thing is that passion for public policy, you need to be interested in doing detailed investigation,
in pouring through boring old documents to find something that's really important,
pouring through videos, video footage and podcasts and all of that stuff,
all the things that you and I and our research team have been doing for years and years and years,
it takes a lot of hard work.
It isn't easy these things.
But if you have that passion for it, that's going to be the most important thing.
We can teach you a lot of the other skills, but we can't teach the passion.
So you've got to want to be willing to devote yourself to this for the rest of your career.
So if this isn't something that you're interested in going into for your whole career,
and you just think this might be an interesting thing to do for a summer or whatever,
this is not going to be the program for you.
And we do have programs for people like that that just they want to know the truth about America or her history,
but don't necessarily, you know, are not necessarily looking to make their whole life about, you know,
Washington or policies or something like that.
And we have a program that is separate at Mercury 1 from this.
This is for a fellowship.
And I, can I tell you, I have.
I have people in Washington all the time that ask for briefings on the things that we do know here at the show.
And you will have access to some very high-ranking people.
You know, if you are the hard workers, you're the ones that are discovering and putting it all together
and briefing not only people like me, but also people in Washington.
It's a great start.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
We're going to ask that people sign a confidentiality agreement
when they join the program because you're going to see a lot of really important information.
You're going to see things that lawmakers are saying.
You're going to have access to research that nobody has access to.
And so we're really inviting you in to the club.
How are you going to make sure?
I mean, I know we do vetting for our service.
summer program for college students. And so far, I think we've only had one person that we were like,
okay, you need to go. But how are you, what, like, what questions are you asking?
What should people expect? Yeah, I mean, there's going to be, so the application itself is
pretty simple and straightforward, but after we've identified sort of the most promising
candidates, we're going to have long detailed conversations with you. And I assure you, we will know for sure
if you share our values or if you don't share our values. I don't think that that's going to be
too much of a problem because of how detailed those conversations are going to be multiple
stages of interviews and things like that. Because we really do want the most dedicated, the best,
the brightest, and the people who share our ideological
values. It's fantastic. Again, you can go later to mercury1.org. They were a little busy with the
tornadoes today, which by the way, we have a goal of raising $50,000 just for the tornadoes today.
If you want to donate, please donate. We've got people on the ground already, but we need
some extra help because it's three states.
So if you want to donate, go to mercury one.org.
And that's where you'll find the information about this new fellowship for a new generation
of leaders.
We want to really up our game on this and be able to help train the future leaders of tomorrow.
And so Justin and Mercury One have put together Freedom Rising Fellowship, the Freedom Rising
fellowship program and you can get all the information at justin haskins dot com is that right
yep justin haskins dot com and you can also email fellowship at mercury one dot org right now you
email that if you're interested in applying and we'll make sure you have everything that you need
right we'll need a a resume um two writing samples brief statement explaining why you're
interested in joining the program that'll be the first hurdle uh and just go to fellowship
at Mercury1.org.
Send us everything and we'll be in touch.
Justin, really excited about this.
We'll talk to you probably again
and get some more detail later this week, if we can.
Yeah, sounds great.
How are you feeling about ESG
and all of the things that we've been working on?
Oh, boy.
How much time do I have?
About two minutes.
Okay, about two minutes.
So I have a confession to make.
I, a couple of months ago, made the mistake of sending you an email telling you how excited I was about some things that were happening in Europe.
And you went on the air and, you know, you bashed me and you said, well, you know.
He's young.
He's young.
I remember when I was young and naive.
Yes, yes.
And so it turns out that European ESG gigantic government-run scheme that we've been talking about,
out for years that I thought was dead has come back from the dead. And now apparently it is on the
fast track to being passed. It's already been passed by Parliament now. And so it's got like one more
tiny little hurdle to clear. And that's going to be truly one of the biggest fights that we
have going forward on the ESG bout. So I really thought we were the tide had turned in our favor. And now
I'm feeling a little less optimistic. With that said, in America, some really good things have
happened over the past couple of years. This year, we got a bill passed in Tennessee. You would
talk to the lawmaker there, Rep. Jason Zachary. That's now been signed into law by the governor there.
So that's the second toughest anti-ESG law that we have in America, the toughest being in Florida.
So that's a really positive development. But this European ESG mandatory system is going to
bring in all of these companies in the United States. It's going to catch up a bunch of businesses,
even that don't do business in Europe, but do business with someone that does business in Europe.
It's supply chain law.
And it is probably the most dangerous ESG social credit scoring system thing that we've had to face yet.
All right.
Can you hold on?
Do you have time to hold on?
Because I want you to explain that.
And if you don't have time, I can explain it.
I do.
Okay, good.
Hang on just a second because what happens in Europe on this is critical.
It will, it's game changing here.
even if we say, nope, we don't want anything to do with it.
More in just a second.
First, let me tell you about pre-born.
Mother's Day is coming, and I want to talk to you about pre-born.
The organization that, I don't know, I think cares about moms more than most.
With your help, pre-born offers expecting moms free ultrasounds.
When a young mom is in distress and not sure what to do about her pregnancy,
those ultrasounds double the chances that she'll choose life.
but she usually is surrounded by people who say get rid of the baby either you're too young or you don't have the money or you know whatever um so she wants to have the baby 60% of them want to have the baby but they feel very alone that's where preborn comes in on top of the free ultrasound they offer love and care to the mom and they don't just abandon her the moment she gives birth that's what the left always accuses of the right of but that's not preborn they go on to help that mother out for
two years afterwards showing her and her baby god's love and how real christians act this mother's day
why not help bring life to both a mom in need and her baby one ultrasound is 28 dollars five
are 140 dollars every penny goes towards loving mothers and babies as well and when you become
a monthly sponsor you're going to receive pictures and stories of the lives you help save so get
involve just dial pound 250 say the keyword baby that's pound 250 keyword baby or go to preborn.com
slash beck preborn.com slash beck the following content identifies as a commercial isn't that
lovely the glenbeck program will be right back so as Justin was saying Justin haskins
from the heartland foundation is with us announcing a new fellowship at mercury one.org
more details on that. But we were talking about ESG. And ESG has been rumored to be going away over in Europe,
but it is just a game. Their elections are coming through in, I think, June and July. And those are
major elections. And I think you're going to start seeing it rear its ugly head again. But
Justin just said that in Europe, they are passing, and these are.
are dracon this is esg on steroids this is the real deal um and it has all kinds of ramifications
for america and american workers can you explain that jeston yeah so in europe they don't call
it esg they call it due diligence so if you want to look this up look for due diligence european
union and what you're going to find is a supply chain law that's how they're selling this a
human rights supply chain law but essentially what it is
is it's a way for the European Union to create a government-mandated social credit scoring system, ESG system,
and then to impose it on most of the rest of the world.
And the way they're going to do this is by creating these requirements that say,
if you want to do business in Europe, you have to adhere to our ESG system that we're going to create,
a government-c-created ESG system. You have to adhere to it,
full of all kinds of social justice provisions, climate change alarmism,
Paris Climate Agreement, all that stuff.
You have to adhere to it.
But not only do you have to adhere to it,
if you do business in Europe,
so an American company doing business in Europe would have to adhere to it,
but also you have to make sure that many of the businesses in your supply chain,
regardless of where they're located, also have to adhere to it.
So Ford, for example, Ford does a lot of business in Europe.
They will have to adhere to the EU's ESG system,
but they'll also have to make sure that all the companies they do business with in America
or the vast majority of them also adhere to various parts of this ESG system.
So you could be some rubber plants in Youngstown, Ohio,
and you're going to get caught up in this, even if you don't do business in your own.
Jason, Justin, thank you so much.
Justin Haskins, he is the co-author of my book, Dark Future and The Great Reset,
and is working closely now with us on a new fellowship.
Beware, it is coming.
The Glenn Beck program.
I'm working with something with Chase Medical that I'm really excited if we can make it happen.
I'm really excited to share with you.
But I want to talk to you about your medication.
Should there be a supply line dropage?
Are you prepared?
Where do you get medication?
How do you, if you can't get it at CVS or Wal-W-Grein, what do you, what are you going to do?
Well, we live in a time where there could.
be breakdowns of the supply lines. And I would suggest that you get Jace Medical on the phone or just go to their website jesmedical.com
slash Beck. I hate this time zone. I'm so tired in the morning at this time zone. Anyway,
but jesmedical.com slash Beck, you go there. You can get everything that you need. The Jace case is the five best antibiotics that you might need.

Hello, America.
Welcome to Monday.
I want to talk just a little bit about politics here.
Joe Biden is fading fast on so many levels.
But in the polls, he is just getting hammered.
He has the worst polls of any president since we've been taking polls in the last 70 years.
the worst.
Now the New York Times said people are just becoming nostalgic.
They just gotta, you know, I like those good old J's when we had Donald Trump in and he stood for something.
Yeah, is it nostalgia or is it just that what he did worked and what Joe Biden did is not working in any way, shape, or form?
We'll talk about that and talk talk with Selena Zito, who is a reporter who was really the one who captured the 20,
16 Donald Trump a win and really spoke to it again in 2020.
I am interested to see what she has to say.
She doesn't take polls or anything, but she doesn't fly places.
She drives places.
And so she is in the rural communities and gets a real sense of what's happening in those
communities.
We're going to talk to Selena about the election here and Donald Trump,
and especially what Joe Biden did by suing a hometown favorite gas station.
We'll talk to her about that.

I want you to, if you are struggling with your credit cards, I want you to get yourself out of debt.

Wow, if it wasn't for the government protecting us on commercials like that, I just wouldn't know what to do because after that disclaimer, I feel so much safer and better.
Selina Zito, welcome to the program. How are you?
Hi, good morning, Sunshine. How are you?
I'm good. So you're out on the road with Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and things couldn't be more different for the two, but you were in Pennsylvania.
and the week that Donald Trump came into, I think it was a chick-fil-A, he just said,
Chick-fil-A on me for everybody.
And it was a really cool gesture.
Then a few days later, Joe Biden did something and take us through what he did, not only
there at the restaurant, but the next day.
So Trump was actually in Atlanta when he went to Chick-Phillay.
However, the next day he was in Pennsylvania.
in the Lehigh Valley.
Now, I just want to explain why Lehigh Valley is important.
It's a working class area.
It's a swing district.
It's also a heavily Hispanic district.
And we've noticed how Hispanics have moved to become more conservative.
Anyways, to the point, there were 42,000 people there.
42,000.
That's a lot of people in the Lehigh Valley for a Republican.
I think that's important to note.
And it's in the middle of what I call the middle somewhere,
but where most people call the middle of nowhere.
And that is also important because there is an intuition,
whether you like Trump or not,
there's been a very good intuition is to show up in places
that people don't expect you to and earning votes.
Now, let's contrast to that to what Biden did.
He went to very three, very specific,
where he knows he's going to win the vote.
There is not going to be a rally.
These are elected people.
and sort of part that come to all of these events in Scranton and Philadelphia.
In Pittsburgh, it was union leaders.
Now, remember, that's very different than rank and file.
And so these events were very orchestrated, very minimally attended.
And what was really fascinating to me was that he had a message about something and Wall Street people.
I don't know.
I don't even know.
Like I looked at, I watched his message.
I'm like, I don't know why.
Did nobody tell you that people are not upset about Wall Street people, but they really, really upset about inflation?
And then he goes to Pittsburgh.
And I'm a nary thing to protesters outside, a robust level of protesters.
On one, some independent and Republican voters saying, hey, hey, ho, ho, Biden.
has to go.
The Ro Hamas people, not yet at the same time, who were saying, hey, hey, ho, ho, genocide
Joe's got to go.
My brain was scrambled by that.
He made the safe bet.
He went to the places where he thinks he needs to bring his base back.
Trump went to places where he needs to earn new voters.
And that's the difference between the two of them in Pennsylvania.
and I think in a state that's registration,
Democratic registration has dropped dramatically from 2020,
where it was 600,000 advantage over Republicans, Democrats,
to now 389,000 Republicans.
Holy cow.
Democrats still have the advantage,
but there's a whole heck of a lot of people.
Holy cow, that's a lot of people to lose.
So go ahead.
Well, I think what's important, Glenn, to pay attention to.
People are looking for this big moment, right?
In particular, politicians and strategists, this big moment that's going to change everything.
I believe, as the way that it is going, it is tiny little cuts that are hurting.
It is the closing, oh, my God, it was so heartbreaking watching that Weirton, West Virginia,
steel plant that has been around for 120 years closed down on Friday.
And you say, oh, West Virginia, who cares?
Well, guess what?
People from Ohio, that's at the can handle.
People from Ohio and Pennsylvania work there.
And it was closed down because of its care because the Biden administration refused.
I'm going to, I might mix this up with another pair of problems.
But anyways, it didn't give American steel an even plain.
field. So they had a close. And so it's that kind of tiny little cut. It is the pausing of the
liquid natural gas, which doesn't just impact people in the industry or even people that
are downstream of it, like barbershops and machine shops and hotels and so forth. It also
impacts farmers. Why? People don't think about this. But farmers are profoundly impacted by the liquid
natural gas
because they have leases on their land
oftentimes with
natural gas
facilities on their
extractions on their
land oftentimes
these leases are what keep these farms
going so I think
it's really important and then there's
45B it is
the
implemented in Pennsylvania or impact
in Pennsylvania that is going to keep
us from getting that big hydrogen plant that he came to the state, that Biden came to the state
to brag about, losing billions of dollars and thousands of jobs. So these are the time, and then
sheets. I mean, why do you go after sheets? People don't know who sheet, what sheets is. That is a
belt of gas stations, kind of like Buckies is in the south. It's beloved. It's just, it's just
good service, et cetera, et cetera. And this is where he bought the sandwich.
for the workers.
On a Friday, he goes, no, on a Thursday, he goes in and buys a bunch of sandwiches.
It's clear he's never been in a sheet or a gas station.
And he, the next day, the administration, forget this, enforcing criminal black background
checks on all of their employees.
Why?
Because they said it's racist.
Which, by the way, I think if I were a minority, I'd be highly insulted that you think,
you know, no minority can pass a criminal background check.
It's just insulting.
Not only did he pull that out as a race card.
He has now retracted his war on menthol cigarettes because he is afraid that's going to hurt his black base
because I guess all black people smoke are menthol cigarettes.
And so, you know, I'll kill you, you know, over time.
I just need your vote this time around.
It's just astounding.
So what is your gut tell you, and I know we're a long way away,
but they seem so confident, so confident.
What is your gut tell you that is coming?
Because I cannot believe that still there's 42% of the country that says,
yeah, I'm for Joe Biden.
Well, you know, there are people that will always go Democrat.
They just will.
I think they were called yellow dog Democrats in the South or blue dogs.
No, yellow dog Democrats in South.
And that's the preference.
It always will be.
And then there are others who just cannot abide Trump's comportment.
However, you are seeing people that have left him in 2020 and post-20.
2021 that are coming back because they people decide on their lives and their livelihoods and their
communities. Those are the things that impact them. They look at the pocketbook. They look around
in their lives. And I feel as though I am reliving 2016 all over again. 2020 did not feel
this way. I remember having me on. I was hesitant to say that Trump would win. And much of that
had to do with COVID and and and and how and and all the things that surrounded COVID.
There were millions of things that impacted it. And also that that September 29th, um,
uh, debate wasn't his best moment. And a lot of people had voted right after that early voting.
Um, so I think that this 20, 24 is much more similar to 20, 2016.
it deals very much that is something that that is trumps to lose.
What he remains to be his most important asset is his understanding that he needs to earn votes.
Okay.
Do you remember years ago, Billy Joel had that song Allentown.
Yes.
And everyone across the country sang the song with earnest and heart.
Not because they loved Allentown, but because they said,
saw their city in that song.
They saw themselves reflected that loss of community and jobs.
Trump intuitively understands that while he is in Harlem campaigning or at a construction
site campaigning, he isn't just campaigning in those places.
He is campaigning with a backdrop of a reflection of what a thousand different cities
look like across the country.
And he intuitively understands that.
And it's interesting to me that he makes those kind of choices,
and Biden makes the choices that he has that doesn't earn him new votes.
He is quite brilliant at sensing the pulse and knowing it.
And I'm so glad because I really, I think your opinion matters so much because you don't.
You're not hanging out with experts.
You're hanging out with people in the rural areas.
And so you just have a better sense.
And I'm so glad to hear that you say this is feeling more like 2016 than 2020.
If you can hang on just a second.
I want to talk to you a little bit about Pennsylvania and what they've done to clean up the vote, if anything.
Because that's that I think is the main concern of people.
Really, I think, on both sides.
We just, we want a clean, fair election.
but there has been this all of government decree that has gone out to bring in new voters.
We hear about, you know, about, you know, illegals voting, et cetera, et cetera.
I want to hear about what you think in Pennsylvania, how well they have done, if anything,
to clean up the vote this time around.
Back in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about the IFCJ.
That is the international federal.
of Christians and Jews, and there has never been a better time in the history of the state of Israel,
when they have needed our help more. And you know what? They don't want us fighting their war.
They're not asking for that. They're really asking for, can you just support us in what we do?
Can you just let us defend ourselves, please? Yes. In fact, I'd like to go a step further.
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews been helping out Israel for a long, long, long time.
but October 7th really changed everything.
And right now they're trying to build not fallout shelters, but bomb shelters at all of the bus stops.
Now this is where people who are going to and from work and kids who are going to and fro school,
this is where they stand.
Many of these kids are up north.
Many of these kids are standing there when a rocket goes off.
I've been in one of these shelters under rocket attack, and they're pretty incredible.
They're $15,000 each.
That's an awful lot of money.
But it's a way to show our support and way to actually help them in a way that's tangible.
If you could donate the full amount for one of these shelters, great.
They'll put your name on it and everything if that's what you would like.
But if you could just do one donation of five bucks or five bucks a month, it would certainly help.
support ifcj.org that's the web address support ifcj dot org 10 seconds station ID so selina everybody is
concerned about the theft of an election and the best thing we can do is shore that up so whoever
wins we know we can trust the election how are you doing in pennsylvania on this um pretty well
Shapiro, Governor Joe Shapiro, Democrat.
They've done a good job of clearing out the voter rolls, meaning the dead people.
And also it's done on a county-by-county effort.
This is a general mix of Democrat, county executives and Republicans, or like a three-person commissioner.
and they've all done a fairly nonpartisan good job.
Republicans, by the way, this is really kind of funny.
So in October, Governor Shapiro made it easier to change your voter registration
or to register to vote by doing it when you get your new driver's license
or you renew your driver's license.
And I thought it was pretty funny that Republicans, some Republicans like flipped
out and said, this is going to get more Democrats, there are 55,000 new Republicans within the first
month of that law being enacted. So I think right now it is, while the Democrats still hold
a majority in the state, Republicans have been doing a robust effort, not just on a grassroots
level. You see them everywhere. But you also have seen.
on their own. They're doing it on their own. They go to change their driver's license picture,
and they're like, oh, I can change my voter registration, or I can vote a registered
to vote if they're a young person. So for one in a blue moon, the Republicans have actually
done a good job of taking advantage of all the technology, but also the enthusiasm that is
on their back. If you had to, and I wouldn't hold you to
this because it's so far away. But if it were being held today, how would it end?
In Pennsylvania, right now, I mean, it's super close. It's going to be super close. However,
I would at this moment give the edge to Trump because of the small tax. The tiny little cuts
that I've been talking about, the LNG pause, the 45V, the closing of the steel mill,
the sheets, these tiny little things
and inflation. Inflation is the biggest thing
in this state. Costs are soaring
and they haven't stopped and they're insulted
when everyone tells you the economy is fine.
Look, it's not 2008. 2008 the issue was jobs.
We have jobs. It's not the job.
Some people are working a lot of jobs
because they can't afford basic costs.
Thank you so much. We'll talk again. God bless.
Selina Zito, you can find her at selinaZito.com.
SelinaZito.com.
She is, I mean, she really has her finger on the polls, especially in Pennsylvania where she is from and spends a lot of her time.
But she's listening to people.
And that's the one thing that I feel like our government doesn't do anymore.
They don't listen to people, you know.
We used to say, I don't want a president that is, you know, going by the polls.
I don't know, it would be nice once in a while
if he would just open up the windows of the White House
to hear the chants all around the White House
and the protesters, you know,
because they don't seem to be listening to us.
All right, a guy who's running for Mitt Romney's seat next.
When frequent pain has you back up against the ropes,
it's time to come out swinging.
When I was dealing with some of the worst pain in my life,
that meant taking relief factor.

America, I'd like to introduce you to somebody who I hope will be replacing Mitt Romney.
If not him, at least someone of his background and belief in the Constitution.
Trent Staggs is now the U.S. Senate candidate.
He is the mayor of Riverton, Utah.
Most people would go, I don't know.
Well, let's just say this.
it's one of the few cities in the country, if not the world, that would not enforce the lockdowns
during COVID.
At the GOP convention, it is a crowded, crowded primary, but he is the two-term mayor, and 70% of the
delegates supported him in the final round of voting yesterday.
We welcome him to the program or Saturday.
How are you, sir?
Glenn, I'm fantastic. It's great to be with you.
Thank you, Trent. I just have a few questions, and they're kind of tough.
I don't mean to, but I don't want to waste anybody's time here.
The Mitt Romney, if you're going against, you know, or for his seat,
what are the things that really hacked you off on policies with Mitt Romney?
What do you disagree with him on?
Boy, I don't know how much time have we got here.
I announced, you know, I was,
I was the one that stood alone in this race.
I entered last May, and I had the stated goal of unseeding Mitt Romney to primary him.
Of course, he made the decision late September not to seek re-election, but, you know, I called out several things.
He made promises that he would balance the budget, that he would end illegal immigration.
He claimed in his launch video five and a half years ago.
He said he would stop federal spending an overreach and that he would confirm conservative justices to the court.
Well, we know that's not his record.
It's just been shockingly, 180 degrees.
from that. So I think with respect to all of the above, I mean, the budget, we're going to hold the line.
I've made a contract with Utah that I am not going to vote for any omnibus spending bills.
I mean, we just, we don't have any time anymore. We've got to get back to process. We've got to break
what Senator Lee has entitled the firm, where four individuals are back there behind closed doors and
putting together a thousand page plus pages of legislation and budget and throwing it on the members'
desks and saying you've got 24 hours to pass this thing. I mean, that has to stop. I think it's
unbecoming a self-governing nation to have four individuals do that and circumvent, you know,
thereby all of our elected representatives. Let's get back to process, get this budget under order,
get back to pre-COVID spending levels, and let's close this border. And let's take a wrecking
ball to the regulatory state with my business background and have experience with that. Those things
would really get us back on track and unleash this American economy.
So do you see yourself as a partner with Mike Lee?
Because that wasn't happening with Romney.
It wasn't.
That was so unfortunate.
I mean, we saw him cancel with respect to many of the major votes cancel.
Our great senator here, Mike Lee, and that's what I indicated to folks from day one.
Hey, if you want another Mitt Romney, don't vote for me.
If you want another Mike Lee, I'm your guy.
I'm going to line myself rather consistently.
I pledge to join the Freedom Caucus equivalent of the Senate.
They called the Executive Steering Committee and Senator Tuberville, who came out recently and endorsed my campaign.
He basically laid out.
Look, we've got only 18 of 49 Republican senators right now that even are part of this committee.
And we need to get to a majority within our own caucus.
We've got to have the majority there.
And that way we ensure we do not elect a Mitch McConnell 2.0 as Senate Majority Leader and we're able to advance, advance in America First agenda.
So what would you say to people that would say, yeah, I've heard this before.
Mitt Romney is an example. I've heard this before. And then you guys get there and you don't do it.
Why are you different? Why should we believe you, Trent?
I've had that question several times of the last all of the months on the campaign trail.
And I've told folks, look, talk to any Riverton resident where I'm mayor, you outlined several things where I've stood up to the establishment within our own state during lockdowns, during COVID madness, where we said absolutely not.
We're going to protect people's constitutionality and their rights.
We said no to lockdowns, mandates of all kinds.
I've fought ESG in our community.
I've fought inappropriate materials in school and addressing school boards and making change there.
So I've stood up time and time again and not just.
the way that I was the only one to challenge me at Romney and stand up to McConnell.
We called him out months ago.
And so I've got a consistent pattern of this.
It isn't something that's just new.
But at the same time, I have garnered some endorsements across the country from national
conservative voices and great people in elected office.
Donald Trump just endorsed you?
We just got the endorsement of President Trump.
How phenomenal we get that Saturday morning right before the convention.
And so that, I hope, is.
also a sign of I'm you are going to keep me accountable here in Utah delegates and
citizens but I've got a group back there that's going to have my back and they
pledge to that that we're going to support one another and we're we're going to
finally get this done what's your wife's name how long you've been married
Alicia my wife Alicia and I have been married for 17 years now we've got two
incredible children I've got a 14 year old son 11 year old daughter and I'm
telling you that's the reason why we're running when I announced my candidate
as you go in debt.
Now, not even a year later, $35 trillion.
And estimates are we're going to hit $50 trillion by 2030.
So within the term of the Senate seat now being decided.
Yeah, it's, once we do that, it's a nightmare.
Yeah, it's, we're out of options.
Really, we're almost out of options now.
So what are the, what are the top two things that you say, I will die on my sword for?
My top two is, is the border and budget.
I mean, we've got to get this border control.
It's amazing to me.
I met with ICE in Salt Lake City.
They've got over 150,000 active cases.
They're working here.
It's just so porous.
There are so many problems related to crime and just there.
It's unbelievable to me the amount of impact that's having, not just financially, but otherwise here.
It's really wreaking havoc on this country.
We've got to get back to border wall.
Remain in Mexico, E-Verify, cutting off benefits to illegal immigrants.
We've got to.
support what I believe will be President Trump's second term here in office, get back, he has to
get back into office. And then the budget, getting back to process. I mean, we, since 1974, the
congressional budget, we're supposed to have 12 appropriations subcommittees. They're supposed to be
ample opportunity for debate and amendment with the firm that hasn't happened. We haven't had a
balanced budget since 2001. It's insane. Just by getting, getting us back to that process, I believe
that we'll get our budget in order, we'll stop digging the hole. We have to do that right away.
Where are we in the life cycle of the Republic?
Oh, well, that's interesting. You asked that question. I mean, my big mailer that we put out
the delegates said that, you know, great nations fall and had a picture of us and Rome, you know,
side by side. And it just said great nations fall when they inflate their money, forget their
values, and lose control of their borders.
And that's where we are right now.
We've got to get back.
I share your assessment that the runway is not very – we don't have a lot of time here left to course correct.
But we do.
We've got to jump in there.
We've got to elect people that are serious and are willing to, as you say, just die on the sword for this.
So your local paper in Salt Lake, the Tribune, did an article on Christian nationalism and said that members of the –
the Latter-day Saint community are more likely to be Christian nationalists.
How would you define what Christian nationalism is that they're talking about?
I don't know. I try not to read the Tribune, quite frankly, Glenn.
Okay, yeah, right. It's likewise with that in New York Times. Yes.
Well, I think they may be referring to a belief in the Judeo-Christian values
that founded this nation. I believe it. I believe that we were founded on biblical principles,
and we could spend a lot of time talking about that and reversion back to God. And that's something
we did here, even in my own city. We reinstituted an invocation at the outset of every city council
meeting. That was one of my first order of business as mayor, because we have got to,
we've got to get back to those founding principles and recognize the hand of providence here
in the establishment of this nation.
and that we need his help in order to restore.
You have a restoration of those founding principles in this nation.
So I'd like to sit with you on Christian nationalism at some point.
What you described was the founding of our country and the way it's supposed to run.
Christian nationalism is entirely different, and the left is intentionally confusing people
and asking people very, very vague questions like, are you a Christian nationalist?
And they answer it the way you do.
But that's not the intent.
This is a really dangerous thing because they're going to sweep.
all Christians in to this at some point.
And there are those.
Christian nationalism is a belief that this is a system that is wholly inadequate for a
non-religious and non-moral people, as the founder said.
Thus, we have to have a new system, and it needs to be based solely on Christianity,
and it needs to be run church and state combined until we can,
you know, gather, you know, enough steam to be able to be responsible again.
I think it's an incredibly dangerous thing.
The only thing that I am a Christian and I believe in our founding documents and I want to
return to our founding documents.
One last question.
Your competitor, John Curtis, has for an eight-week primary sprint.
He has about $7 million.
Do you have the money and the staying power to beat that?
Because we want a conservative in.
We don't want another Mitt Romney.
Well, absolutely, yes.
I mean, we will, to date, you know, the last FEC report showed.
Curtis with about $1.3 million cash on hand, we're trailing that at a half a million or so.
We, you know, getting an endorsement from President Trump just a couple of days ago.
As, you know, we've already seen an incredible amount of people go to Trentstags.com, you know, either donate or open up to volunteer.
We've got thousands and thousands of donors and volunteers across this state, you know, taking the convention at 70%.
That's a real, you know, we can't underestimate the importance of the grassroots efforts.
But my phone has been going off the hook here recently, and we've got so many commitments for people now that are donating,
putting in fundraisers.
And these are true patriots.
These are people that recognize, oh, wow.
We do have somebody that we can ensure replaces Mitt Romney
with a true constitutional conservative
and somebody that's going to go back there and partner.
You'll yoke up with Senator Lee
and really try to save this country.
I don't think it's hyperbolic to say that.
It's rather real critical jumps you're here.
It's there.
It's all hanging by a thread.
Trent, thank you so much.
I appreciate it.
at what was the website again ags.com it's s t a g-g-g-s trent staggs.com

convention quite a showing thank you thank you Glenn appreciate it you bet you bet
bye-bye um one thing i can tell you is uh from all everybody i speak to the guy is a rock-solid
constitutional conservative
and that's what we need.
And there's somebody else that is running who is also very conservative.
And I'd take either of them, honestly.
This is the first time I've had a chance to speak with Trent.
And I think he did well.
All right.
Let me tell you about our final sponsor.

You're listening to the swinging sounds of Glenn Beck. Sit tight, boys and girls. We'll be right back
after these messages. Well, there's a few things that we're in the news today that's in our
newsletter. You'll find them today. Some
pretty fascinating stuff is going on.
For instance, how much do you think
Ford Motors
is losing on every electric
vehicle they build and sell?
I mean, just take a...
Losing money? The goal of a company is to
profit. Obviously, this is a new technology,
very exciting. So they're
I would assume they're profiting off of each
electric vehicle. No, they're not. They're losing money. They're losing
money. So how much are they losing?
I mean, $1,000?
would be a lot to lose on every vehicle.
Not a little higher than that.
$5,000 to lose.
A little higher than that.
How about $130,000 on every EV?
That's what Ford is losing.
I don't even sell an EV that costs $130,000.
I know.
I know.
How this is insanity.
By the way, Sophia Bush, we all know, you know, that very famous actor
and actress that we've all never heard of.
don't really care about.
Sophia Bush, she has come out
as queer, and I don't know what that means anymore.
I used to think that was the L and the G, but it's not now,
so I don't know she may be having sex with aliens.
I don't know, but she was very brave, very brave.
She came out at the White House Correspondents dinner,
and that's so brave.
I mean, there was no one in the room that supported her on that.
Let's see, Iraq, gay marriage.
Oh, in Europe, in Germany, in Europe,
they're calling for a European and English caliphate now.
Those are the protesters over there.
So, you know, it could be worse.
We can look at our campuses and say,
yeah, they're saying kill the Jews,
but at least they're not calling for a caliphate here.
Yet, there's so much more.
We'll get to it again when we meet tomorrow.
Until then, God bless.
