If you are somebody who likes to have, you know, ammo on hand and you're like me, I mean, I used to, and now do Amow Squared, have been doing Amel Squared for a while, I used to every summer when I would go up to the ranch, I would go and through my ammo, okay, what do we need to buy?

And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're glad you're here. Saudi Arabia, this visit to Saudi Arabia yesterday by the president, is game changing. On so many levels, it is game changing. Oh, by the way, also, do you see CNN admitted that the economy is improving

and that our inflation numbers now are the lowest since 2021? Wait a minute, I thought tariffs were supposed to jack up inflation. Me personally, I think it's too early to be able to say, yeah, it doesn't affect inflation. However, all of the big banks are now saying, wait a minute, we thought we were going to go into recession, and they are reducing the probability of going into recession. This could just be a feel good for a couple of weeks. But I like to feel good for a couple of weeks. But the indications are now that it may not be as bad.

If bad at all, it may not be as bad as we thought, but I think it's really early to tell. Now, Saudi Arabia, what did the president do in Saudi Arabia? He promised it would be big things. I mean, I still underestimate the guy. I still, you know, okay, we're going to have big things. He's going to announce a big trade deal or something like that. No, no, no, no. Especially if you're a libertarian, what he said from the stage in Saudi Arabia was remarkable.

I mean, he sounded a little bit like George Washington in what he was announcing his policy. We'll talk about that. Coming up in just a second, first let me tell you about Rough Greens. If you ever wonder why your dog, you know, is eating his own poop, you know, you'd like to ask him, but they don't talk. What would your dog say if he could talk? Okay. Of course I'm eating my poop. What are you feeding me?

Grunchy sadness, my whole life. Suddenly now you're sprinkling magic into my bowl. I got to tell you, I feel like I can do parkour right now. Thank you very much because I am, and I'm not going to be out in the backyard sniffing that old stuff because I don't want it anymore. I feel alive. Thank you. Is this what it feels like? after you have a really good meal. It's incredible. I wish I had a belt I could loosen.

Rough Greens. It is real nutrition for your dog. It's not dog food. It's what you put on the dog food. Pack with all of the good stuff your dog's body has been begging for. You'll notice the difference. Go and get a free jumpstart trial bag for your dog today. You just cover the shipping. It's roughgreens.com. Use the promo code Beck. RUFFF Greens.com with the promo code Beck. Sorry, just sawed of Uno. And I miss feeding him. You don't have to change your dog's food to improve your dog's health. Just add a scoop of rough greens. Hello, Stu.

How are you? Doing well, Glenn. Did you see the speech yesterday from Saudi Arabia? I saw bits and pieces of it. I did not see the entire thing. Wharf seeing the entire thing? Yeah. Yeah, I don't think I've seen a presidential speech like that ever.

Maybe Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall. Wow. Yeah. I mean, it was game changer. Air there. Yeah, it was absolutely game-changing. You know, what he said in his speech, let me see if I can get some of the cuts here. Let's go.

Let's try cut 14. I don't know if this is it. Cut 14. If the responsible nations of this reason sees this moment, put aside your differences and focus on the interests that unite you. then all of humanity will soon be amazed at what they will see right here in this geographic center of the world. It really is. It's like a center of the world and the spiritual heart of its greatest faiths. Go to, that's not it. Go to cut four. This is him talking about Iran.

But with that said, Iran can have a much brighter future, but we'll never allow America and its allies to be threatened with terrorism or nuclear. nuclear attack. The choice is theirs to make. We really want them to be a successful country. We want them to be a wonderful, safe, great country. But they cannot have a nuclear weapon. This is an offer that will not last forever. The time is right now for them to choose. Right now, we don't have a lot of time to wait. So he talked about Iran. Here's what he's doing. He is isolating Iran. Here he is announcing sanctions. removal on Syria. Listen to this. Cut six. My administration has already taken the first steps toward restoring normal relations between the United States and Syria for the first time in

more than a decade. And I'm very pleased to announce that Secretary Marco Rubio will be meeting with the new Syrian foreign minister in Turkey later this week. And very importantly, after discussing the situation in Syria with the crown prince, your crown prince, and also with President Erdogan of Turkey who called me the other day and asked for a very similar thing, among others and friends of mine, people that I have a lot of respect for in the Middle East, I will be ordering the cessation of sanctions against Syria in order to give them a chance at greatness. That's a huge deal. Huge, huge.

Now, what is he doing over there? first of all the way they greeted him is remarkable he is uh you know you would think you're talking about the mobile McDonald's truck go ahead play a little of the mobile McDonald's truck in case you haven't seen it this is a scream here's a mobile McDonald's truck you have it yeah I mean it's an actual Saudi Arabian mobile McDonald's truck

and they brought it in for him I mean who does that How do we not have one of those here? I know, right? Right outside. But anyway, so they brought that in. That's not what I mean. I mean, for the guy that they said was going to set the world on fire, remember, all of our allies are going to hate us and blah, blah, blah. Look what he's doing.

He is close to peace in Ukraine and Russia. He is close to peace with Israel. He's about to shut down Iran. he just put on the toughest, like, spookiest sanctions ever on China, and they're back at the table going, I don't know, let's talk. This guy, I mean, if this works, this guy should win multiple Nobel Peace Prizes. I've never seen anything like it. Well, can we talk about what it is, what he's trying to get to work?

Because I think the, what interested me the most out of what he said was, and what he did, was meeting with Syria, meeting with the new head of Syria, releasing these sanctions, which seems to me, you correct me if I'm wrong here, because I'm connecting dots here, so maybe I'm connecting them incorrectly, but seems to me to be, I'm sure he's rooting for Syria to not be a terrorist nation, right? I'm sure that's all part of it. But I think to me, it's more of a play to say to Saudi Arabia, hey, we are as a nation, are taking major steps to release sanctions and normalize relations with a nation we have not

had a good relationship with over the years and now going to Saudi Arabia and saying, hey, can you take that step with Israel? Which, as you said, would also be a play to isolate Iran in a way that has not been seen in a long time. Because Saudi Arabia is the player in the region, you know, that in Qatar. And I don't like either of them. Their human rights abuses are horrible. horrible. And Qatar is in bed. I mean, they, they are a major funder and, you know, a major, I don't know. And wasn't Hamas, like headquartered there for a while? Yeah, yeah, yeah. For Hamas there.

I mean, it's bad. Qatar is not good. I don't like the relationship with Qatar. Saudi Arabia ain't good either. However, they have modernized and this new prince, I mean, after he put somebody in a blender, you know, he is trying to modernize. Saudi Arabia and that is extraordinarily difficult to do in that region and I don't know how all of this is going to work out but what he's trying to do is saying look we will we will to perhaps to you Saudi Arabia as the power in the region we won't get involved in everything and we'll let you lead if you start to play nice with Israel and that's not hard Saudi Arabia has wanted to play nice with Israel for quite some time.

Is it domestic politics? That is their reason for hesitating on that? No, it's Iran and it's domestic politics that comes into their country, mainly from Iran, et cetera, et cetera. Because I think they'd be worried about hardliners on that. Yeah, they are worried about hardliners. However, I think they have their hardliners at bay

if you didn't have all of this really bad negative import from Iran, which is trying to destroy all of Saudi Arabia. So it's not like Saudi Arabians who are like, you know, I love Saudi Arabia, but I just hate this policy. They're fomenting. You should hate Saudi Arabia. You should hate your own country because they're traitors against the faith. And a lot of that is being paid for and being shipped in.

by Iran. And again, I want there to be normalized relationships between Saudi Arabia and Israel, but you probably are if you were, if you say, if that's the thing bubbling up from

foreign adversaries, some of the people who are vulnerable to that line of thought, if you normalize relationship with Israel, you're risking those people saying, see, are government is now normalizing relationship with Israel? Like that is going to be a real some reaction

inside the country. And again, Saudi Arabia doesn't, they don't have the sort of concerns we have for domestic politics. I don't mean to say like, oh, they might lose the election for King next time. Like, that's not going to happen. They don't think that's, uh, they're not worried about that one. Unrest is real. Terrorism is a real threat. Like a lot of these things are real inside the country that they're managing on a day-to-day basis. Now, here's the important part of what Trump said yesterday that I think is game-changing and every libertarian on the planet, anybody who has said, you know, there's foreign war things, it just doesn't work anymore, anybody who said, we shouldn't be nation-building, anybody who said, maybe the State Department

should calm down a little bit. Listen to what the president said in this speech. I'm going to give it to you in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Lear Capital. it's easy to think of gold as an investment. Maybe, you know, it goes up, you know, in price. But that's not how I see it. I've always seen it as a hedge against insanity.

I see same, the gold the same way as I see emergency food or a generator or a backup water supply. When the economy is good, great, gold just sits there for a while. You know, but when things go sideways, when the banks freeze up, when currency start to wobble, when politicians make decisions that shake the foundations of, I don't know, are stability by not cutting our budget, well, gold goes up and its value doesn't vatish. Preppers get this. They don't think in terms of return on investment, although you can. I think of it in terms of survival and stability and freedom, and Lear Capital gets it too.

They will help you roll over a portion of your retirement into physical gold and silver, real metal delivered to you or stored securely, whichever one you want. That way when a storm hits, you're not caught out in the. the open. Please call your capital today at 800-957 gold. 8-900-9-7 gold. Get your free $4,200 gold report. You know when I first started telling you about that report? $4200. I thought, well, that may be, maybe that'll be. Now I think hurry before it's a history lesson. Forty-200 gold report and ask how you can get up to $15,000 in free gold or silver by calling right now, $800-9-57 gold. 10-second, station ID. How long

have you waited to hear a president say something like this? And he said it in the Middle East, which is so incredible and incredibly important. In the, I'm quoting, in the end, so-called

nation builders wrecked far more nations than they built. Now that's a slam against George W. Bush, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden. I mean, you see, there's further unrest now in Libya? You know, when Hillary Clinton said, we came,

we saw he died, they still are not back to stability in Libya. So congratulations on that, Hillary. Anyway, they've wrecked far more nations than they built, and the interventionalists were intervening in complex societies that they didn't even understand themselves. It is, I'm quoting the president,

it is crucial for the wider world to know this great transformation has not come from Western interventionalists, interventionalists, or flying people in planes that will give you lectures on how to live and how to govern your own affairs. No, the gleaming marbles of Riyadh in Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation builders, neocons, or liberal non-profits like those who spend trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Kabul, Baghdad, and so many other. other cities. Wow. Instead, the birth of modern Middle East has been brought by the people of the region themselves. You achieved the modern miracle, the Arabian way.

What does that tell you, Stu? What does that say to you? How many times have we been shouting this? Stop, you don't know what you're doing. You're only making things worse. He's now saying, we'll support you. You do it your way and we'll watch from the sidelines. Now, that doesn't mean, this is what George Washington said, friend to all, enemy to none.

And only unless they start screwing with our stuff, then we're going to have to have a sit down, if you will, and worst case scenario, a war. But we're not going to get involved in your stuff. Now that doesn't mean we look the other way as they behead people. It just means, look, let them put their own house in order. What if they put it in order by beheading people? Are we okay with that? No, we're not. But right now, we're having to make the choice.

Which one's worse? The one that is beheading people and wants to burn Israel in the Islamic fires, the fires of the Islamic fury, Iran, or Saudi Arabia that's been saying, you know what? I sign those Abrahamic chords. I think that's a really good a thing. Why don't we all make peace with one another and try to live with one another? So if I could phrase it another way, it's something like, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, for example. Yeah, except I'm not sure. I'm only torturing you. I think you're right, but I just think it's interesting. I'm trying to test

myself against, I'm trying to press myself a little bit on this because I, I, they don't have a great human rights record. I do feel like probably the role for the United States to take is to be, uh, to have, um, to put pressure on them when we can and realize that we can't control every, everything that's happening in every other country. I think the role, I think what he's doing. I think the role that of America is we came in here. We've been there for 100 years. We're not making it any better. So why don't we look to the countries that are stabilizing things

and that want to work with Israel and see if we can encourage them to all work together and do the right thing so we can go home because we're on the other side of the planet. And we shouldn't be controlling everything over on the other side of the planet. let's give peace a shot. So do as much as we can to give that region peace, collapse the really, really bad guys if we can with the help of all the people in the region. Not us doing it, but them doing it and us going along and saying, yep, yep, I think that's right. We'll back you on that.

Collapse it and then get the hell out of there. I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm playing devil's advocate here. But doesn't that sound quite a bit like? like our policy on China from 19, from the Nixon era to Trump. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

It was the same sort of philosophy, right? Like, go in there, we make good relations. We open up markets with them. We open those things up. It might be really bad. Might be really bad. But I, is it going to be, is it going to be worse than what we're doing right now? Or what we had been doing?

I mean, Joe Biden, I mean, that whole place, we all knew it. That place. I mean, it's going to eventually, but that place is going to, just set itself on fire. It's a giant sinkhole of spirituality and, you know, and prophecy. It's going to happen. Yeah, I think I'm with you and I think with Donald Trump's approach here. You know, it's something I want to make sure I'm examining over and over again.

But I think the right move with this region is to take what we can find in common, which happens to be in this, in this realm, you know, really shiny gold things and lots of big business, right? Like advancing those relationships with the thought of advancing other things that we also think are beneficial, like normalizing relations with Israel, like isolating Iran further, you know, like hopefully creating an area in Syria that isn't a breeding ground for terrorists and chemical weapon use. Right, right, right.

Like, I think we just have to do. do what we can do and realize it's not going to be perfect. This sucks and we'll get criticism for it later, I'm sure. I'm sure we will. But I think it's probably the right way to go. So let me ask you this. You know the situation in Europe. We've been talking about it.

Sure. I mean, project that out 10 years, Stu. What does that look like? Could be very ugly. Okay. Why? What is it actually look like? Does it look like it's a Western civilization or does it look more like Iran?

I mean, I hope. hope it's not that bad. Right. It's been going the wrong direction though for a long time. If there is serious unrest in Europe, Iran will be a big part of what is happening

on the streets. If we have friends and say to them, look, we don't understand your culture. You don't understand ours. We don't understand yours. You go ahead and take care of your place. When that happens, we could go to them and say,

Could you help us? Because we do understand this because this is our land. And we need your help to get this under control. I think that's worth trying. This is Glenn Beck. So you remember the old days of home security when you had to schedule a guy to come out to your house, wait around three and a half hours for a four-hour window, and then, you know, a stranger would come in. And he would just, you know, start drilling holes in your walls. make small talk with you about sports, even though you don't watch sports. That seems oddly specific.

But those days are gone. Okay. Simply safe is designed for people who don't want the awkwardness, don't want to pay a fortune just to feel safe. They don't want somebody else in their house drilling holes. You don't have to do any of that. Now you can get top of the line home security that you can set up yourself in under an hour or, you know, let somebody else do it. They'll do it for you. Or some random dude in your living room drilling holes into your fireplace. You know, up to you. The best part, SimplySafe works.

has somebody I guess in their style section or one. The sheath dress. I don't even know what a sheath dress is. Do you know what a sheath dress? Sarah, what's a sheath dress? Woman? Woman here? The one woman here? What do they mean? What do these things mean? Women? Tell me and bring me more food.

What's a sheath dress? I think it's just a standard tank dress that covers most of you. Right. You should try to cover most of you with dress. Now, I watched the Met Gala, and a lot of people didn't know they were supposed to wear dresses that covered most of them. Okay, so, but it's a form fitting. It's not tight, tight, tight, but it is like more of a form fitting dress, right?

Yeah, for sure. Okay. So women and president, this is New York Times, so women in our president's circle have a very unified look. our critic explains where it comes from and how you can style against that type. There are a very specific look associated with women who subscribe to the Trump worldview, one that is sort of a cross between Fox Newscaster and Miss Universe. That's not necessarily bad.

It doesn't sound terrible. It generally involves flowing tresses that are at least shoulder length, false eyelashes, plumped up cheeks and lips. Really? You're going to tell us about plastic. surgery. Sure, Hollywood. Hollywood and Park Avenue, really? The effect underscores an almost cartoonish

femininity that speaks to a relatively old-fashioned gender stereotype. Oh, no. The counterpart to this woman is the square jawed, square-jawed besuited guy with a side part. By the way, I'll just have you know. Do you know who came up with a square-jawed besuited guy with a side part? Anybody? Anybody? Definitely don't.

Okay, that image of the American man, that strong, virile, square jaw, you know, like, yeah. Who came up with it? J.C. Lyondekker, a gay progressive from the 1920s. Just want to let you know. It was a gay man that came up with that. Not some conservative. So, oh, we got to get away from that. I don't know.

A lot of gay men still today would be like, I don't know. I kind of like that. Anyway. So they're talking about how you just, you, you, you can't dress like this. I mean, if, I mean, otherwise people will immediately say, oh my gosh, you're a conservative. How bad is that? Now, me personally, I can watch MSNBC and you can look, I mean, that's the home of all of it, but you can look at all of the, the, the broadcasters and the opinion people and everything else. You go, oh, yeah, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal, liberal.

You can see it. You mean like Rachel Maddow has a look. Yeah. Is that what you're saying? She's so obvious. But I mean, you can go and look at, you know, and it goes with the glasses. That's why I wear big chunky glasses because it confuses the hell out of them. But you can just, I mean, there's some things that just say you're a liberal.

Some things that just say you're a conservative, okay? And it's not universal, but generally speaking. And so that they're saying is we don't want to, we don't want to dress like that. We don't want to be that. Okay. Such a weird decision-making process. Because we don't want to be a MAGA woman. Okay, so let me just go over what is a MAGA woman?

At her best, if I'm stereotyping, what is a MAGA woman? A MAGA-woman, to me, is the embodiment of strength and grace. Think of, think of Melania Trump. Strength and grace. She's razor sharp, not because she has. to prove anything, but because truth matters. And here's a woman that knows the truth matters. She's successful on her own terms.

This is a MAGA woman in my book. Successful on her own terms. She can run a business. She can run a household. She can run a boardroom or a ranch. She knows the value of hard work. She's not afraid to get her hands dirty. She's not like the one that's like, let the immigrants do that.

She'll get her hands dirty if she has to. She believes in family, not just as a concept, a social structure, but as a calling. She's the backbone and the heart, the protector of tradition. She's the nurturer of future generations. She knows that raising strong children, loving fiercely, staying grounded in faith in country, is anything but outdated. A maga woman knows that's essential. she's sexy because she knows who she is. She's not chasing trends or applause,

but just because she's comfortable in her own skin, she's sexy. She radiates confidence, femininity, and she does it without apologizing. That's just who she is. She doesn't need validation from pop culture. She knows who she is. She also loves the country, not blindly, but fiercely.

She believes America is, fighting for because she knows it will be one of her children that actually have to go fight for it. So she kind of is really kind of engaged in that whole is it worth fighting for. She knows that freedom isn't handed down. It's defended by people like her children. She's not intimidated by any label you're going to throw. She's not going to fold under pressure. She's not going to be told what a woman is, especially from a guy in a dress.

She knows what a woman is. Okay, so that, to me, if I had to define a MAGA woman, that's who I think a MAGA woman is. But being a MAGA woman is deeper than that. First of all, they're not ashamed of it, nor should they be. And it doesn't have anything to look. It's how you carry yourself. It's really not the way you look. And yeah, are the mega women wearing more feminine clothing?

Yes, because we believe in women. We believe in the differences between men and women. So the mega men, well, they've got that square jaw. No, they're just not wearing a dress, okay? They're not wearing a dress. You know, I can't believe you have to be a feminist in the room, but women can have any style they want, any political ideas they want.

They don't have to match. A MAGA woman is somebody, you know, it could be somebody who's in, you know, linen pants and no makeup. You go, girl, could be that. Maybe they wear makeup. Maybe they don't. Wear heels.

Don't wear heels. It doesn't matter. There is the stereotype. and then there's what it should be and what I think it actually is. I mean, I travel the country. I see a lot of women that don't look like Melania Trump. Don't handle themselves like Melania Trump. Melania Trump, in my opinion, is the gold standard.

My wife is the gold standard. She's poised. She's not like me. She doesn't get flustered in public. She doesn't get flustered really at home. She just takes it in stride. and she's like, okay, we could whine about it or we can get off our butts and do something about it.

She's beautiful. But, you know, there's a lot of ugly guys and women in the MAGA movement. I don't know if you've noticed that. I mean, you're watching this show right now. It's not defined how you look. It's not defined by a rude columnist in the New York Times. This is about your principles, your love for country. It's what you think is best for the children's future. And that's where it gets

messy. That's where the stereotype starts. Because what's good for the children's future is a having children. And the left says you don't have to have children. And you know what? You don't. And some people probably shouldn't. But having children is an important part to keep the species going. It's an important part of life. It is the biggest, it's the biggest joy of your life and it's, it will be the biggest regret of your life, I think, if you don't have children, not for everybody, but for most. And what does the left do? They say, you don't need to have children. You don't even have to have a man. Well, no, you don't have to have a man, but having a man around is nice. Not that I think, having a woman around is nice for the other side. Call me a feminist, but I don't think women should

be discounted for the way they look. But I think maybe New York Times they should be judged for who they are. So don't care about the New York Times. I don't care about the New York Times. I find it hysterical that they're now saying a beautiful woman who's wearing a fitted dress is somehow or another all in bed for Donald Trump. It's crazy. They have gone. even more crazy than they had before. It's amazing. All right, back in just a second. Tariffs are going to hit the foreign meat like a freight train,

and I am happy about that. Now, I am a, I'm a rancher. I have about 100 head of cattle that I run. That's very small for, you know, most ranches. But I like to raise my own beef. And, you know, you just, I mean, Honestly, when I talk about ranching, I am out there feeding them at 5 a.m. Okay, I'm not doing any of those things, but they're pretty.

The cows are pretty, and I like the moves in the morning. Anyway, the good news is good ranchers is 100% American. So when they start putting the tariffs on the beef, which they should, that are coming from some other place, you will know if you have good ranchers that your price is going to be the same. It's going to be the same as it is now, when prices aren't going to affect it, when they are at the grocery store. And you're also knowing the entire supply chain from farm to freezer is U.S. raised, U.S. processed, U.S. delivery, which means it's all tariff proof.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. This thing in Saudi Arabia, the president is in Qatar today. I'm less excited about that relationship. But yesterday, I mean, he went on about the crown prince saying, you know, he's the greatest representative of the Saudi Arabian people ever. And he pointed out that now their non-oil sector revenues are now outpacing their oil sector revenues. That's huge, and that's because of the crown prince. And he said in his speech yesterday,

some in the Gulf have turned deserts into farms, while Iran has turned farms into deserts. He said, the biggest and most destructive of these forces in the regime in Iran, it caused unthinkable suffering in Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq, Yemen, and beyond. He said that they have a great future together, and they signed a NMLU, a memo of understanding on defense cooperation, some agreement between the Saudi Space Agency, no, that was going on,

and other agreements with mineral resources, the Department of Justice, and cooperation on infectious diseases, which is probably very, very good. Were you saying that you didn't know that they had a space agency? Yeah. Is that kind of where I, where I'm on that? I did not know. Wow, you have a space agent.

I mean, you're there, you're talking to the prince. You don't want to act like you're completely surprised. Like, what? Wait, space? Space? Like the one up there? Wow, good for you. So let me ask you this.

Why the unease between, if you're going to deal with Saudi Arabia, aren't you dealing with Qatar or two? Or Qatar or whatever you want to call it? I think you have to, but I don't like it. I don't like it. I mean, you have to be. we have to be friendly with them, but I don't like it. They are, I mean, they are Hamas. I mean, that's what Trump said in his first term. He didn't say they were Hamas, but he did say that they had all sorts of relationships. They're the Muslim Brotherhood. They've brought all of that into our schools here, our colleges.

You know, the Washington Post says that some conservative media has taken massive amounts of money from Qatar. and that's not good. That is not good. Are you saying that because I did bring a new yacht into the parking lot today? So? Well, it wasn't the yacht. It was the fact that you had to have somebody build a whole harbor here in Texas, which must have taken some cash. You know, I just have had a good investing week.

This happened to have $5 billion laying around. Yeah, I think it's, I think. this approach is going to make uncomfortable moments, I think, at times. Like, these countries will do things that make us uncomfortable. And we obviously, no one is saying you have to approve of everything that goes on in these other countries. You know, I bring up this point all the time with India. I think India should be a real focus in the same way, maybe even more than what we see in Saudi Arabia, because of the China relationship. We need an alternative to China. We need a country 1.3 billion person nuclear power with a manufacturing base,

be really nice to be closer to rather than farther away from. And so I think Trump is doing that. India loves Trump. And I think that is part of his strategy here. I think it's a worthwhile one. That doesn't mean we want Modi to be our president next. There's all sorts of policies. There doesn't mean they're poverty in the way they treat the class system.

Class system is bad. The way they treat women is terrible in many ways. They don't eat cows. I mean, there's a lot of things. I don't know if that's. But I think it is a situation where building those relationships, it's not going to work out in every case. It didn't work out with, I mean, I do think that was our goal with China over multiple decades. And it didn't work with China.

Right. It might work. Well, that's because I think we got lost in money. At some point, you have to say, okay, okay, okay, this is not going well. for us, we really should pull away. We should have been pulling away by the year 2000. I think with China, and I could be wrong on this, maybe this isn't the distinction, but I think there is such a long-term ideological

thing that we couldn't necessarily break it like we can with some of these other countries. And by the way, this philosophy has worked a lot. Japan is a great example of it. Many of our European allies, again, some of that's not working at the moment, but like we've had fruitful relationships with them, even though we were at war with them at other times. Have you ever had your mind changed by an enemy who just kept saying how much they hated you? Not, not usually. No, I mean, it's the other way. Yeah. If we are friends to all enemy toward none, uh, I think we have a chance of using soft power to just say, hey, why are you doing that? I mean, that makes things hard. This is

Glenn Beck. Think about what you did to protect your home last year. Was it maybe a new security system, maybe new cameras, stronger locks, all while the biggest threat to your property was probably completely invisible. In 2025, home title theft has exploded across America. These criminals target you through public property records with few keystrokes. They can forge documents and legally transfer your home title without your knowledge. And once they control your title, they can drain your equity through massive loans. And the first time you hear about it is usually a foreclosure notice or a credit alert when the damage is already done. The average American assumes their bank protects them from this.

This is unfortunately not true. There's identity protection services. Some of them do great work, but they don't necessarily hit this particular thing. Homeowner's insurance is not even close. Home title lock can help you fill this critical security gap. They have a specialized system that creates a virtual fortress around your property records. They monitor your title continuously. They alert you instantly to any tampering attempts.

and the team helps block fraudulent transfers before criminals could steal your equity. It's home tidalock.com. Promocode is Blaze. Hometitelock.com. Promocode is Blaze. Check it out now. Well, the president is right now sitting with some other prints in Qatar and he is just signing some deals. And is he going to take the plane or not take the plane? I hope he does not take the plane. I know our next guest agrees with that. Our next guest will also have a lot to say. about the one big beautiful bill. And I'm anxious to hear his take on what the president said in Saudi Arabia about neocons and these endless wars. Rand Paul joins me in 60 seconds. Stand by.

First, most people have no idea what they're actually paying in interest. It's not an accident. Credit card companies, banks, mortgage lenders, they all hope you never really do the math. Because if you did, you'd be shocked. Totally works out into their favor, you know. And it's really quite obvious. and we are oblivious. We're not paying close enough attention to what's going on.

The mortgage rate that you got years ago, it might be bleeding thousands from your family's future. Those credit cards originally got for emergencies only. They're quietly stacking up interest faster than you're paying them down. And American financing is waiting for your call. Maybe they have the wake-up call for you. They could help you consolidate the debt. They can lower your payments,

actually get you to a place where you can start moving forward. And there's no upfront fees. There's no pressure, just real help from people who work for you, not the banks. They're not on commission, so they're not pressured to sell you anything. And it takes 10 minutes to find out if you're throwing money away. And if you are, you'll never look at a bill the same way again. There's absolutely no good reason why you shouldn't be getting your financial house in order with American financing right now.

We welcome to the program Rand Paul, Senator from the great state of Kentucky. Ran, I want to play something for you in yesterday's speech, which I think should have been like a libertarian's dream. It was mine. Listen to this. And it's crucial for the wider world to note this great. transformation has not come from Western interventionists or flying people in beautiful planes giving you lectures on how to live and how to govern your own affairs. No, the gleaming marvels

of Riyadhya and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation builders neocons or liberal non-profits like those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Kabal, Baghdad, so many other cities. Instead, the birth of a modern Middle East has been brought by the people of the region themselves, the people that are right here, the people that have lived here all their lives, developing your own sovereign countries, pursuing your own unique visions and charting your own destinies in your own way. It's really incredible what you've done. In the end, the so-called nation builders wrecked farmers. more nations than they built and the interventionalists were intervening in complex societies

that they did not even understand themselves. They told you how to do it, but they had no idea how to do it themselves. Peace, prosperity, and progress ultimately came not from a radical rejection of your heritage, but rather from embracing your national traditions and embracing that same heritage that you love so dearly. Rand Paul, what did you think of that? Pretty amazing. You know, there have been so many times when I've heard President Trump speak or seen his actions on foreign policy that I've been, oh, my goodness,

is the best president we've had in my lifetime. I thought he sounded almost like Washington at that point. Just like, do it yourself. We're not here to tell you what to do. I haven't heard that ever from any president. And this is why the Bush wing hates Donald Trump so much to establishments. because these are the people who wanted to spend freedom at the point of a gun everywhere. And they thought we were going to shape the world for democracy,

which is sort of a leftover Woodrow Wilson idea. But no, this is the part of Donald Trump. I completely embrace and courage and will defend and defend on a daily basis. So I said earlier today that I thought that part of that speech was as significant as the Gorbachev tear down this wall speech. Agree or disagree? I agree. It's incredibly significant to say, you know, We've developed these relationships not by busting around the world, not by intervening, but by

basically, you know, trading and intervened and use the word trade we could have, but basically having trading good relations with these countries that develop themselves. So while we're there, why don't we talk about, why don't we talk about, I don't know, trading nothing for a $400 million airplane? Where do you stand on this gift from Qatar? Well, there is this little sticking point. You know, the Constitution says you can't take emoluments or gifts unless they're approved by Congress. I think Jefferson was offered something, and Congress actually voted against Thomas Jefferson being allowed to keep it.

And but you can't do it. I mean, it's just, and it's going to set up the appearance of impropriety, whether Congress will protect him and not vote on it, possibly. But the other thing is, is we're the world's largest arms merger. We sell arms by the billions everywhere throughout the Middle East. We populate both sides of every war on the planet. And so Qatar is a big recipient of arms from us. And so we make these decisions, and the president pretty much makes them on his own. Congress has the chance to object, and I have objected in the past to both Qatar and Saudi Arabia receiving arms,

when I felt like, particularly when the journalist Khashoggi was killed by the Saudis, I thought we should have laid off arms for a while, and somebody should have had to pay some penance over that. I agree. And so I've tried to block different arms sales before, but, you know, there's a potential that the administration's objectiveness will be clouded by a $400 million plane. There are some practical concerns as well. One of them is, is where are we on the one that they've ordered? If it's already made and they're just upgrading it, you know, putting the electronics and defensive weapons on Air Force One, and they're within six months of being completed,

the Qatari plane would have to be completely outfitted. It has to be probably stripped down on the inside, completely reconfigured, has to have the special stuff that it's classified. It's two to five years just to finish it. Yeah, so it may be that the other plane is actually closer to being finished than this one is disappointing, and Boeing's disappointing on so many fronts

that they haven't had this plane since I think it was commissioned by the first President Trump and four years later still isn't ready is really a disappointment. But we'd have to know more about it. The thing is if he really wants this plane and it's a great plane, the Qataris could either sell it or give it back to Boeing and Boeing to sell it to us if we could pay a price. And then we alleviate all of this. If he takes it, every family transaction that they have had in the Middle East for the last

10 years or next 10 years is going to be doubly scrutinized. And I think it doesn't come to any good. So what do you think about the possible, and this may be giving him too much benefit of the doubt, but the guy is playing, you know, 15-dimensional chess, it seems, so many ways. He, I spoke to him about the Boeing plane a few weeks ago, and he was smoked. And, you know, we, we began our participation in and ended World War II in a quicker time than we have ordered that plane in 28. 18 to today. So, I mean, what is Boeing doing? And he's saying, and others are saying that it may be five years from now, maybe even 10.

What about the idea that he is just trying to push the pressure on Boeing and like, get it done? Boeing has become an extension of the government. They're a government bureaucracy and they behave like it. You know, look, I think the Empire State Building was built in a year. China right now can erect a 30, what's that? 10 months. 10 months. Yeah, China can erect a 30-story building in a matter of two or three months.

I mean, it's amazing how fast things can be done. And Boeing can't make a plane in four years, and sometimes their planes don't fly. And so that is a problem if you're a plane manufacturer and they don't fly. But it's because, Govry, Boeing is such a slow, ponderous corporation that's been, you know, had monopoly on sort of government planes for so long that they're being out-competed internationally, and they're just slow, you know. And so I see them more as an extension of government bureaucracy than I do as a real capitalism, but no company could get away with being this poor and this slow moving if there was a real marketplace.

So what do you do to solve that? Because I think that, I mean, that is the real solution. It's I feel like the former Soviet Union when they would, you know, when Gorbachev or anybody else would get into a zill, You're like, oh, that's nice. That'll break down halfway to the airport. You know, what do we do? Boeing, you can't sue Boeing. The president can't sue Boeing.

The country can. How do you fix this? Here's the interesting thing, Glenn, and this intersects with the discussion over trade. Some would say we need to protect them. And that's what we do. We protect Boeing. We protect them from international trade. What if we did this?

What if we got rid of the trade barriers and we let all the international companies compete with Boeing? Boeing would have to get better or go bankrupt. So they're inefficient because they are protected. Some would say the same happened to U.S. Steel over many generations. It wasn't that we didn't protect U.S. Steel. We've had steel import quotas for generations. We've tried to do whatever we can to block international steel from coming here. And yet all it did is it led to a large behemoth U.S. steel that was about like Boeing wasn't able to react to the marketplace.

Let me talk to you about government aircraft, military aircraft. have to have an aircraft company. I agree. What can we do? What if the president, because honestly, the right thing for the president to do is sue Boeing. Look, you violated our entire contract. It means nothing. I'm going elsewhere.

But he can't sue Boeing because it's, you know, that would be very bad. And the second thing is he has no choice but to buy American. So how do we solve this? The other thing I guess you could do is you could reduce what they're paid. So for example, if we, if the government said we were. giving them a billion, we give them $500 billion, whatever it is. And that should be in every contract, too. And, you know, I think Elon Musk was a big promoter of this. When he started building rockets to take satellites into space, he said the problem you guys have is it's cost plus. So everybody

just keeps inflating their cost because they always get the same profit or bigger profit if they have cost overruns, make a competitive bidding and put penalties into your contracts. So Boeing should have penalties in the contract. If you want another airline or another couple of to make planes in the U.S. I'm perfectly happy to vote for no corporate taxes on somebody who will make planes in competition with Boeing. Just no corporate taxes, period, 10 years, 20 years. It would take a lot for the incentive because it takes a lot of money to get started in that field. But look, Elon Musk started from scratch maybe 10 years ago building rockets. So you think somebody couldn't, like Elon Musk's car building planes? In fact, I guarantee if Elon weren't so tied up with other things, if you said Elon,

why don't you start a plane company to compete with Boeing? I'll bet you have it started in a year. Let me quickly, do you have time, because I want to talk to you about the big beautiful bill and also Fauci. Do you have a second to hold on for one minute? Absolutely. Okay, hold on. Let me tell you about Relief Factor. They call it Quick Start.

It's a three-week pack from Relief Factor, and if you've been living with pain, might be the most important 21 days of your year. Day one, you're skeptical. You know, you try to other things. Day three is starting to notice maybe something. Pain's not gone, but it's not maybe a little. loud, but you're moving maybe a little freer, sleeping a little better. By week two, you're starting to get a little hopeful.

You're waking up without that brace for impact feeling. And by day 21, a lot of people who try it are just feeling better. They're back to doing things that they stopped doing entirely. Mine took about six weeks. I mean, I felt the difference within three, but six weeks, it was like, what happened? It's not magic. It's not even a drug. It's natural, anti-inflammatory pack that goes to the root of the pain. Change your life right now. Call American call relief factor now at 1-800-4 relief. 1-800-4 relief. Why did the commercial copy just changed to something else? Relief factor. 1-800-4 relief. Relieffactor.com. All right. 10-second station ID back to Rand Paul. I know you're giving us extra time and I really appreciate it,

Ran. But let's talk about the one big beautiful bill. How do you feel about it? Well, you know, the tax cuts from 2017, I supported, I support making it permanent, and really I'm very supportive of the president's program on the tax plan. That's a big part of the bill. The second part of the bill is they're supposed to be spending cuts. So far, I think they're pretty wimpy and not going to amount too much. That is bothersome, but I'd still vote for it.

Even if I got some spending cuts and made the tax cuts permanent, the reason I can't vote for it is they're going to raise the debt ceiling $5 trillion. And the reason I can't vote for that is that it belies. It really contradicts everything about what we've been hearing. We hear about Elon Musk and Doge and all these cuts. And we're all, you know, jumping up and down from our seats clapping for Donald Trump. And then the deficit is going to be $2.2 trillion in the end of September. And then they're planning on another $2.8 billion, $2.8 trillion the next year.

They're planning on adding $5 trillion in two years, which means there's going to be no reform, and conservatives are going to wake up at some point in this administration and go, wow, where did all those cuts go? What happened? We haven't seen him in a while, and how come the deficits going up at its alarming rate? In the past, conservatives have never voted to raise the debt ceiling. It's always been all Democrats and the big government Republicans. We know who they are, and we've always derided them, and it was a day of shame. The day of shame is when you walk down to the well of the Senate or the House and you vote for all the spending that you put forward.

But most of the conservatives, particularly myself and others, we haven't voted for the spending and we don't want to vote for the debt. Now, I have said I'll vote for some increase in the debt, and I said, I'll give you three months' worth. So I introduced an amendment about two weeks ago to increase the debt ceiling two months, three months worth. You know how much that is? $500 billion for three months. That's an enormous increase. And it hurt me to even put it forward, but I did saying this, we'll give you three months. You're all promising me we're going to have cuts in spending, and we're going to balance the budget,

we're going to do these great things. I tell you what, proofs in the pudding. I'll give you three months with a borrowing power. Then you come back and ask me again for three more months. So I would do the opposite. I would have a debt ceiling vote every three months, and it would be the lever, and we would only give you an increase in the debt ceiling if you actually were cutting spending. And people say, what about default?

default should never be on the table. The fault is a $400 billion. That's fake. We're never going to default. Well, we bring in 400 billion in a month in revenue, and the interest payment's $80 billion. Why would you ever default? We should announce to the markets that we have plenty of money, and if we have cut spending elsewhere, we will, but we won't default on our interest payment.

And there's no reason ever to. And it's a game they've played just to get everybody to vote for it. They scare everybody to death. They scare the market to death. And then they say, oh, we'll default, there'll be chaos. There's no reason to default. We've just cut spending elsewhere, and we would take the first dollars we'd get and put them towards the entertainment. This is the thing that I'm so mad at Congress right now that it, I mean, they won't even go through with the doge cuts.

They are, they're arguing about those. And honestly, the doge cuts in the end seem a little disappointing. You know, they're not taking the steps that I thought we all voted for. Well, you know, the Doge cuts are some of the lowest hanging of fruit. I'm all for them, but they went to the foreign aid budget, and I'm doing this for years, and they found crazy stuff. You know, $2 million for sex change operations in Guatemala. Right.

Hundreds of thousands for a trans comic book, a trans opera in Colombia. And you know what? They have it in a rescission package. The White House has had this rescission package for about three or four weeks now. It's only $9 billion. So it's not enough to amount to anything. but it's still worth cutting. They're afraid to send it to the capital because the feedback they're getting from

Senate and House leadership is we don't have the votes to cut $9 billion. And if that's true, these people need to, the reason we have the vote is so everybody knows who these people are. Who are the people that can't cut out $2 million for sex changes in Guatemala? You can't do that. They need to be ridden out of town on a rail. Can you give us some indication on how long we have? I mean, people have been saying it's going to get bad, it's going to get bad.

We are really truly at the end if we don't cut our spending. How much time do we have to cut our spending before we're just overwhelmed by interest payments? I think it depends on what the interest rate is. So for many, many years we've gotten away with this. During the George W. Bush regime, we went from $5 billion in debt to $5 trillion in debt to $10 trillion. But our interest payment went from $4 to $2. and then everybody was gleeful, even the Duk Cheney Conservatives like, oh, those don't matter.

Well, if you keep cutting your interest rate in half and doubling your debt, you can get away with it. But now we're stuck at the opposite end. We're at $36 trillion in debt, and the interest rate is going up. Now, it stabilized a little bit, but interest rates went where they were in 1990. When I bought my first house, it was 11%. The government wouldn't probably pay a little less than that, maybe nine, maybe eight. Yeah.

We couldn't pay it. We couldn't pay it today. So it depends on the, interest rate. At the interest rates now, we're struggling, and interest payments is the largest item in the budget, and it's crowding out other spending. So we are struggling. We bring in $5 trillion in revenue, and we spend $7 trillion. The entire budget that Congress votes on, which is almost $2 trillion, is all borrowed. So the discretionary spending, what government votes on, military and non-military discretionary is all borrowed. The entitlements soak up every dollar

of revenue. We are in a bad way. I can't tell you when it ends. I can tell you, if interest rates spike, we will be in a serious, a serious problem. I'm only, I now only have about 40 seconds left. I'd love to have you back. Can you just tell me, is anyone going to pay for the COVID thing? Is that ever going to happen? We're not done, and I will bring Anthony Fauci back in. We've finally discovered the records as to who determined that the money went to Wuhan. They have resisted me for three years. Robert Kennedy has helped me get the records. So is Jay Battacharya. This week or next week, I'm going to begin interviewing the people who were on that committee.

We were going to find out what was the debate, what was the discussion, what were the arguments for sending it to Wuhan, what were the arguments against it, who made the arguments, and then who ultimately had to sign off on this. It is our belief that Anthony Fauci had to sign a document. We haven't found the document yet because it's either been hidden or destroyed. There will be held up there. Thank you, Rand Paul. Glenn Beck.

When rockets fall, people don't need a promise they need a package, they need food, they need They need medicine. They need help that shows up then, not weeks later. That's why the international fellowship of Christians and Jews is so trusted, because when a crisis hits Israel, they're already there. The trucks roll out. The aid goes in. God's people get what they need to survive. Now, this isn't a new organization. Fellowship is building relationships and supply chains and trust for decades now, and that way they know Israel knows. When the moment comes, they're not going to scramble. They're there already. They just move. And because it's funded by people like you, Christians who believe in standing with Israel, they can keep moving again and again and again.

It's not just about the next 24 hours. It's about giving people strength to keep going after the headlines phase, a fade.

So this Jake Tapper book that is out, everybody's giving Jake Tapper a hard line. And believe me, no tears are being shed. here for Jake Tapper, at least from me.

But he came out with the book, along with the guy from AP or Politico, I can't remember. Alex Thompson. Yeah. And so they put the book out, and they're talking about, for instance, the latest is that, you know, George Clooney didn't have, it was so shocked. And members of the audience were so shocked that Joe Biden was just not even there. And remember, it was the administration who then said those were deep fakes. That was just deep fake. You know, that's not.

Or they said, well, he was just standing on the stage. You know, he wasn't lost. He was just admiring the crowd and soaking in their applause. Really? I believe the term they used was cheap fakes. Yeah, cheap fakes. Cheap fakes. And now we find out in the book that George Clooney was horrified.

and so were the people around George Clooney when, I mean, he was throwing that benefit. And when he came, he said, Joe Biden had no idea who he was. And they had met, you know, multiple times. He describes him as friends, not as they'd met multiple times. He describes him as friends. They were good friends over a long period of time. And Joe Biden didn't recognize him. Now, take out the fact that he's one of the most famous people in the world.

Yeah, I know. Right. Like, even if you've never met him, like if we were, we were, we were. went into 7-11 and George Clooney walked in, we'd all be like, that's George Clooney. Right. Like, this is not a borderline thing. Right. He didn't recognize him. That's a real problem. So here's Jake Tapper now, talking about how the White House covered up Biden's deterioration. Listen. The bottom line is the White House was lying, not only to the press, not only to the public, but they were lying to members of their own cabinet. They were

lying to White House staffers. They were lying to Democratic members of Congress, to donors, about how bad things had gotten. And in fact, Alex and I started writing this book after the election of 2024, and we spoke with more than 200 people, most of whom, almost all of whom were Democrats, and almost all of whom wouldn't be honest with us or wouldn't be candid with us until after the election.

And then after the election, we found out all of these things that when you looked at what was going on with President Biden, at the time, it probably doesn't surprise you the extent to which he was deteriorating. But now we have anecdotes and facts about what was really going on behind the scenes with details that Democrats wouldn't share with us until after election day. That was kind of his excuse basically as to why it wasn't talked about before, right?

Because they wouldn't talk until the election was over. Yeah, well, what about them going to jail? If they did something against the Constitution, they should go to jail. Not being that afraid of this president being completely, completely checked out. And you're not telling the cabinet, there's a problem. There's a real problem.

You can't keep that information from the people who need to know that. I 100% agree with that. And they should all go to jail. Yeah, whatever. If there are crimes committed here, and I think there may have been, we should definitely have an investigation

that looks at all the messages. Yeah, this isn't about a book. And it's certainly not about Jake Tapper. No, I will say with the Tapper, excuse me, the Tapper, I have Rand Paul. I was going to say. Did you get something?

Us and me and around both can't talk today. The excuse here is a bit frustrating, to be frank, from Jake Tapper. Because I think what he's saying is actually true, right? They really weren't talking about this to the media. They weren't leaking to the media. They had a relatively buttoned up operation when it comes to protecting Joe Biden, including, according to the book, protecting Joe Biden, shielding him, is the term they used. from his own staffers.

I can't even describe how insane that is. But like, sure, they weren't telling you. Sure, they were lying to you. But you know what? Let's step back for a second. The media does not have a good relationship with the Trump administration, do they? No, very bad one, right?

When they go to Stephen Miller and they ask him a question about, hey, what about this thing? Stephen Miller, they might think Stephen Miller's telling them lies. What do they? do after that? What if they get something

from the press secretary and they don't think it's true, what do they do? Just report it mindlessly? Do they say what she's saying is true? Because, of course, she said it. No. They dig and they dig and they dig and they dig and they find somebody, some intern of an intern

who will say the opposite. You can't tell me that Jake Tapper doesn't have George Clooney's phone number. and can call... Probably does. He probably does. Or at least know somebody who has it and can get into it and call him and go, dude, look, this is what I'm hearing. And I don't want our side to lose either, you know.

But this is very dangerous. Is this true? So I think... Somebody would have spoken. Somebody would have. And by the way, at least according to this book, and I'm sure Clooney was a source in the book, so you can take this for what it's worth. But according to the book, I mean, Clooney deserves some credit here in that when he saw,

Biden in this state. He decided he wanted to do something and was told by Barack Obama not to. And changed, and did come out. And did it anyway? What was it? Two weeks after the debacle of the debate?

Yeah. Yeah. Right. It was about a little bit of it. Now, he didn't do it right away. No, but he did. But he did. The rest of them didn't do it

until the election was over. Right. And I will say, you know, we should have less criticism. Not none. But less criticism for people who do come out and do it eventually. I think. That's at least my belief.

Like, for example, I played a clip yesterday of, on my show, Studez America available on TV, by the way, of Joe Scarborough in March of 2024, saying he's the sharpest he's ever been. This version of Joe Biden is the best version that has ever existed of Joe Biden. This is just, I mean, you know, weeks before, I guess months before this election, but not, not many months before the debate, four months before the debate. That, and he has not come out. He didn't write a book.

He just said this thing that should have discredited him to every audience member until the end of time. And has not come out and said, by the way, until it was politically feasible to do so. Didn't write a book, didn't do deep reporting, didn't go and get all of his sources. he was just carrying the water of what he wanted to happen that entire time. Pathetic. And every person who's ever tuned into that show, the four people who have, should never do it again.

I mean, how do you have any credibility after saying something like that? When you obviously know it's not true. So let me play this, because if you look, it is hard to find Jake Tapper defending. But there is a montage going out that does have, well, a minute and two seconds of his. him defending. Listen. How do you think it makes little kids with stutters feel when they see you make a comment like that? It's very clearly a cognitive decline.

Okay. That's what I'm referring to. It makes me uncomfortable. You are no, you have, you have, it's so amazing to me that. And try and figure out an answer. A cognitive decline. Biden embraces his stutter, talking about it while Trump mocks it, exaggerates it, belittles it.

He's sharp physically. I mean, mentally. Yeah. I think the question is physically, right? Or so? Right. Right. And the guy who's his chief opponent is only three or four years younger than a man.

Me, I mean, you have questioned President of Biden's age, mental fitness, ability to lead of those supporting Biden. You said, quote, shame on all of you, pretending everything is okay. You're leading us and him into a disaster. Do you worry that you damaged him at all? I don't doubt that you got hugs and handshakes behind closed doors today. And maybe even publicly some of them because they like you personally. But I've heard a lot of really nasty stuff about you from your Democratic colleagues. I mean, just like, what is he thinking?

Exercise in narcissism. Again, what is it? That's four clips, four interviews. Yeah. One of them is talking to Dean Phillips, who was the guy who was saying this early and didn't get any credit for it on the Democratic side, who deserves the credit for it. And then the first one is from 2020, the year 2020, which is, you know, and then there's two other clips.

They're short. And I've seen five versions of this montage, and every one of them has the same four Yes. So like I I'm not he it's not that Tapper deserves no criticism for the for those clips. He does deserve it. If he comes I think we should get him on the air and ask him about it. I think I don't think he's coming on the air. Maybe he's asked but if he does we should I it I would be fair to ask him about those those clips. I agree and he should be asked but like the level between him and Joe Scarborough there's a galaxy between them. Oh yeah yeah. And so the fact that he's coming out now and writing a book with it with another journalist who did ask the

questions throughout the entire process, Alex Thompson, I think is more of a positive than a negative. The only problem with those clips that I have is the first one. Play this again. The bottom line is the White House was lying not only to the press, not only to the public, but they were lying to members of their own cabinet. They were lying to White House staff. You mean the one of the montage? Play the montage again. How do you think it makes little kids with studders feel when they see you make a comment like that? It's very clearly a cognitive decline. That's what I'm referring to. It makes me and comfortable.

Totally dismiss. I can't. It's so amazing. It's so amazing to me that. And then try and figure out an answer. A cognitive decline to Biden. Okay. Stop.

That's by far the worst one. Yeah. But the problem with that one is he is not engaging as a journalist. No. Okay. That's not a journalist. How do you think it makes little kids feel? That's the question.

She can say, whatever she wants to say. Okay. I don't think you answered the question or whatever the follow-up is. But he became the defender of Biden. in that moment. That's the problem with that one. I totally agree. I think that's a bad clip. It was again from 2020. By the way, I think it was still clear. He was in cognitive decline then. Yes. So I don't give him a huge excuse, though that...

Remember, this is the time when they kept him in the basement. Right. So I'm totally with you. I thought it was obvious then. So that clip, I think, is bad. Though we could make a four-hour montage of Joe Scarborough and the View clips that were much, much worse than... Here's Scarborough. But comparing that guy's mental state, I've said it for years now. He's cogent. But I undersold him when I said he was cogent.

He's far beyond cogent. In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been. Better. Intellectually. Intellectually. Analytically. Because he's been around for 50 years. And, you know, I don't know if people know this or not.

Biden used to be a hothead. Sometimes that Irishman would get in front of the reasoning. Sometimes you would say things he didn't want to say. What? This is, and I don't really, you know what, I don't really, start your tape right now because I'm about to tell you the truth. Betting his career here. And F you, if you can't handle the truth. This version of Biden intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.

not a close second. And I've known him for years. The Brasinski's have known him for fifth. How does that not end your career? How does that clip not end your career? How could that possibly be right? Because when he was so cognitively just in disrepair, he didn't do any of the things. He wasn't responsible for any of those things.

Somebody else was doing it. He was like, what should we do today? That's the best Joe Biden I've ever seen. canceling Netflix takes about an hour, three passwords, and an existential crisis, but switching from your current mobile provider to Patriot Mobile, it's easy.

Here, Camille, de Sac, Magic. No, compresses, soap, fraud, are fabriced here even, in Quebec, with the tissue that we're to buy to and the avion that's

our vines, our presence on Amazon enlarge our base of clientele to the world entire. Sac magic,

is the compress that that all the world prefer. At the this, we're grandee. Trouvey

of the new new other on Amazon dot CA. Yeah. Tonight, tonight on

the Wednesday night special, you know, it's been nice for a few years. We've kind of become the experts in the room

on so many different topics. you know, when I was at Fox, you know, we were talking about quantitative easing, Blaze TV on the radio, and we talked about the progressive movement when I was at CNN, you know, and you've been with us the whole time. And after the 2008 financial crisis, you and I were talking and learning about concepts like quantitative easing long before anybody else did, and you helped your friends. Tonight, I'm going to ask you to go down the road of discovery with me once again.

because the global financial system is headed for a massive, massive reset. Everything that we've been worried about is getting closer, and I've run multiple economic models. The results always come out exactly the same. Tonight, I'm going to show you what all of those economic models reveal. I'll show you the historic timeline for how we ended up here, and I'll show you what the models reveal, what we have to do immediately to stop,

the downfall of the dollar. You know, you've already been an expert for most of your friends. This one is going to be critical. You're going to need to understand what's coming, what's happening, and be a voice of reason when things kind of go insane. It all starts tonight, Wednesday night special, 9 p.m. Eastern on Blaze TV, and tomorrow on radio and also on my YouTube channel, YouTube.com slash Glenn Beck. So that's tonight 9 p.m.

First run, Blaze TV. I'm excited for it, Glenn. All most as excited as I am for a new studios America also tonight. When is that on? I don't remember. It's on the schedule somewhere. I don't remember. Watch it on YouTube.

We can watch it on YouTube or get it on podcast as well. It's another way to check that out. So somebody on the message board just chimed in. Glenn, just want to point this out. Nobody ever talks about Jesus' greatest miracle. Now, what could that be? Seriously, what's Jesus' greatest miracle? Michael said, having 11 close friends in his early 30s.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, but he did have one really big enemy that was in his friend circle there for... He said 11. For a while. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. You're right. All right.

More in just a second. Stand by. Let me tell you about Jace Medical. If you could get to... If you couldn't get to a pharmacy for a week or a month or longer, what would you do? It's not a crazy question. Supply chains are fragile. The world is absolutely unstable, and we're easily one disaster away from medications being out of reach.

That's why I'm a fan of Jace Medical, and they've just launched a new expanded version of their Jace case now with 10 prescription medications instead of five. And you can also check with them and say, hey, can you get this prescription, et cetera, et cetera. You get antibiotics, you get antivirals, critical prescriptions. It could save a life in a crisis. These are the meds you just can't wait to see, you know, oh, well, wait for another month. Maybe you'll come back. No. Everything is prescribed by a board certified physician.

Hello, welcome to the Glenn Beck program. A ton for you on tap this hour. You don't want to miss a second. We're going to start in 60. True cost of a bad real estate agent is just not an inconvenience. It's money, real money. According to industry data, the average difference between a top agent and an underperformer is 25 grand on the final sale price.

And that's just on the sell side. What about the buy side? A bad agent might talk you into overpaying or miss out on a better property entirely or failed to negotiate closing costs, which can mean thousands of dollars out of pocket that you never had to spend in the first place. And the worst part, you might not even realize what you've lost. You just sign the papers. You move in and assume that's how it goes. Real estate agents I trust is designed to make sure that never, ever, ever, ever, ever happens to you. We vet every agent we work with for experience, performance, and character, and we'll match you with somebody who

actually knows how to get things done. This started by me working with the 500 best agents across the country according to the Wall Street Journal and we have just learned from them and expanded and searched these people out. Now we can recommend them to you. It's real estate agents I trust.com. Real estate agents I trust.com. All right, welcome to the program. I want to talk to you a little bit about AI. Apparently, there is a new AI. the scientist at Mass General in Boston have developed a new AI tool called face age and it can tell your biological age

by a picture of you. And apparently, not just your biological age, but how healthy you are. In fact, they are, they believe now with the eyeball test research in the Lancet digital health indicates,

you ready for this, that artificial intelligence will be able to not only spot that you have cancer, but also if you are being treated for cancer, that's not working. They have this much time to live. How terrifying is that? I mean, how great is that? How terrifying is that?

you would you have if you could have it and it would tell you wow you're looking pretty old and beat up uh you don't have much longer to live would would you go into the face tool and say how long do i live how how how i don't think i would do that i wouldn't want that i would i would want to know if i could do something about it i suppose i mean i guess being able to if you knew and again this is somewhat speculative here but if if you knew you were going to die in two months. I guess I, the idea of wanting to know would be intimidating, but I also think like I'd like to probably have moments

with my family and my kids and say the things I want to say and like get my affairs aligned and such. Start some new affairs. New affairs. I'm not just kidding. Just getting, honey. But you know what I mean? Like I'd like to get my,

you do you want to get your affairs arranged? Do you want to make sure you're not leaving your family with a burden? You're making, sure that you say to your kids the things you want to say maybe you want to write something. What if you put your face in? Okay. And you're like, okay, take the picture. How much, you know, what do I have left? And it just comes back. What time is it now? I don't know. If the stupid device can't tell time, I probably, it's like a VCR. I don't know. What do you got? 20 minutes? Maybe. Maybe. I don't know. You're not doing well. Look a little

peeked. Some of the things that are coming with AI are, Remarkable. Go ahead. Life changing, too. I would say society changing probably. So can I just read something to you that is part of it is beyond my understanding and we'll be beyond some. But I just want you to hear this now. This is I rule the world MO.

This is at I rule the MO. I rule the world MO. Nobody really knows who this is. They think that this might be an insider and one of the big AI research for. firms. Okay. But they also think it might be a bot by one of these AI research terms to throw the other research terms off. Okay. They have no idea who this is. Okay. Okay. So, but just listen to what I I'm hoping it's a bot that's trying to throw people off. Listen to this. Just got off a four hour phone call with sources inside Chinese deep seek labs and holy cow, they're using other language.

We are so effing behind. It's not even funny anymore. Hmm. Deep seek R. two isn't an incremental improvement. It is a completely different species of intelligence operating on principles. Nobody in the West has even theorized yet. They've abandoned transformer architectures entirely for something they're calling recursive cognition lattices. The scale and dimension of our math doesn't even have a good notation for this. The compute efficiency gains that violate what we thought were fundamental limits, like 400 times improvement. in reasoning per terraflop. Not four, not 40, 400 times our benchmarks now are literally meaningless.

The scariest part isn't the raw capability, but how it's developing novel mathematical frameworks on the fly to solve problems. Research gives it questions and it events entirely new branches of mathematics to answer them. One physicist showed it a problem he'd been stuck on for 15 years. It solved it in seconds with notations, recognized. It took three days for them to translate its solution back into standard mathematics. We saw demo videos that can't possibly be real except multiple independent sources confirm.

R2 designed and simulated room temperature superconductor from first principles in under an hour, complete with fabrication methods using existing technology. They've already produced the samples in the Beijing labs, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Um, their integration, their, um, uh, integrate, I can't say it now. Interrogation. No, no, no. The, the, uh, the, the, uh, merging with man and machine. Um, with biological systems is the, integration.

Integration. Thank you. Um, with biological systems is the real nightmare fuel. Two way neural interfaces that make lyr, neural link look like a child's toy. Direct cognitive enhancement already in human trials. This isn't even the most advanced system. They're the one showing it publicly. America is still treating this like normal technology race while China understands it's an extinction level transformation of civilization.

It's like watching a nuclear power race where one side is debating the ethics of gunpowder. Wow. Because my recollection of the deep seek story when that came out a few months ago was experts landed on the idea. that there is absolutely, like they basically were using our technology. Yes. And it wasn't as impressive as initially thought. Correct. And so this person or bot is saying that it is.

Now, I will say if you are a person trying to hide your identity, saying that you just had a four-hour conversation with a specific company. I mean, how many four-hour conversations happened that day? It would be a weird way to hide your identity unless you're lying about it. So who knows, maybe it's just all blown out. Hopefully it's all blown out. I mean, you'll read the, I mean, Sam Altman. follows. I mean, others follow. I mean, it's not just, it's seen inside the circles and they don't know

who it is or what it is. A post like that makes me think it's a Chinese bot. Yeah, because it seems like it's a promoting deep seek, right? Yes. Yes. But he's not always promoting deep seek or it isn't promoting. This is the craziest part. You don't know. Now it doesn't have to be a person. It could be an algorithm. Now, of course, there is this thing, you know, there's, There's no, what is it? There's no limit to the levels humans can achieve when you don't care about pain and suffering. Yes. I think I'm paraphrasing Luis C.K. with that one.

But it's like, you know, Chinese can just kind of throw bodies at this. If they're doing live human trials on this stuff, as we've seen maybe with Wuhan in the past, they're kind of willing to do anything. Right. And if they're doing this and actually seeing these advances, we wouldn't do. No. You wouldn't be in human trials yet. for any of this stuff, although, you know, a very long ramp up for Elon Musk's company is we've seen some of that, I guess, but they're just, they'll just throw people at it.

You know, what's crazy is we are dealing with technology that we have absolutely no idea what it's going to be like, what it can do, what, nothing, nothing. And, and I've read several of this, this bot or this person's posts. And they're talking about how, uh, just everything that you, everything, the way you work, the way you think everything is just about ready to be just completely disrupted. Yeah. And we're just, the world is just kind of going along with it. And we're like, oh, I don't know.

I don't know. It could be maybe we should pass something about it. We're just going along with it. And, you know, science, there's a, there's a watch. I think it was Omega. I can't remember. There was a watch that was made in the 1950s and 60s. And it's sweep hand, it's secondhand.

it had like a lollipop and it was, you know, on it. So it was the stick of the hand and then it had like this little circle on it. And it was sweeping around. And the reason why they put the lullipop on it is it was a signal to the buyer and the wearer that that watch didn't have radiation in it. And it's not like, oh, you were working at a lab.

It was that they were, you know, we had put to make things glow at night. That was radiation, okay? To get the luminosity on watches, at first we were like, why, we just used some of this? And that went on for like a couple of decades, you know? And we were like, hey, all come his arm keeps losing all his hair in the first week wearing that watch.

And so they put like this little lollipop on it going, yep, no radiation in this one, dude. That's crazy. that we could make, we could do that kind of stuff for that long, and we kind of forget about it. And now, what are we working with? This is going to make nuclear stuff look like nothing, like nothing. We're so close to it as well. I read another post where they were saying that it is getting so fast for defense that

and I said this, I know I said this five years ago, that you won't even know that you've lost the war because for you, the war hasn't even started yet, but you will start and lose the war in a flash. In its time as it takes you to go, wait a minute, there's a war going on, what? You've already lost. It happened and you've lost.

Because AI is going to get so good It will predict absolutely every move that everybody's going to make. And it will just go, well, here's a counter move. Boom. And put it in. You're like, okay, well, that's over. It's like when you, you're not a big video game guy. But when you start playing a game and you're going, you just decide to go on like the toughest level of the opposing AI.

And like, you just can't do anything. Like you just automatically, your base is destroyed in seconds. That's a very, very low level version of. of this. Yeah. Let me, can I give you one other thing on AI? I think this is fascinating.

This is in the wall, this was in the Wall Street Journal two weeks ago. And I didn't hear any, I haven't heard anybody talking about it. We've talked about for a long time, the surveillance state, right? Like I remember with you taking calls from people who are going, I will not get an easy pass because that means they can track me when I go through the tolls,

right? Remember when we were in Tampa? This is the year 2000. They put, they put cameras up in the street. streets of... Is it Ebor City? Ebor City.

And everybody's like, I'm going to put up with a camera nut, not in America all day right now. Nobody was willing to give their fingerprints. Nobody wanted to give their face. Yep. None of it. Now we all carry a phone,

which of course GPS everywhere we go. Yeah. We click yes, agree, agree, agree to everything. We open the phone with our face. Listen to this. This is amazing. This is from an author, Joanna Stern. Wall Street Journal.

Wall Street Journal. I've been wearing a wire everywhere since February. How the article starts. I've got all the transcripts, important meetings, arguments with my kids, chats with disgruntled employees, late night bathroom routines. There's plenty more that I can't share, I can't share

if I want to, and my bosses and my family as well to keep liking me. No, I'm not an FBI informant. I willingly wore a $50 bracelet that records everything I say and uses AI to summarize my life and send me helpful reminders.

Why would you do that? That's called a panapticon. I think we're basically... How do you have a private conversation in this world? She tested two other devices as well that are on the market now for $159, $199. They recall every single thing. They transcribe every single thing.

They have recordings of every single thing that was said by her... Let's try this for a week. No way. Let's try it for a week. Crazy. That's crazy. Crazy. Crazy.

No, it's crazy not to try it to show everybody how bad it is, but it would be crazy to do it and be like, I think that's going to be a great addition to my life. She says, within hours of wearing this bracelet, I was blown away at how quickly it turned ramblings and random chatter into useful, actionable information. Yet allow me to quote myself from February 24th at 5.15 p.m. This bracelet is really effing creepy. Apparently said that out loud. But, I mean, you can see, again, I can see a world where that would probably would be beneficial. If you have a conversation with someone about something, God, what do they say?

You'd have it. When you were saying, hey, we should get together next Thursday. It puts something in your calendar that says, hey, call this person about that Thursday meeting you discussed. Of course that would be beneficial in some way. It's like having an assistant. If you're an executive, you might have an assistant. Those bots are already coming. By the end of the year, those will be strong everywhere.

you'll have that assistant doing that in your phone and everything else. It already do that. This is the death of private conversations, though. They're over. Yeah. You never, every single time you have a conversation, you should act like you're on television. Having it. Yes.

Well, we've lived that way for a long time. That's what made me so interested maybe in this. We said, well, I'll tell you in a second. Give me 60 seconds. We'll come right back. Let me paint a picture for you. It's 10.32 p.m. Some loser in a hoodie picks your house for a late night side hustle.

He creeps up to the driveway thinking he's the main character in this story. Spoiler alert, he's not because suddenly you step out, not with a baseball bat, not with a gun, but with a burn a launcher. It's a non-lethal defensive tool that fires high power kinetic or pepper rounds or tear gas at 300 feet per second. Guy freezes. The launcher hits. Suddenly tear gas, coughing, confusion, crying, tears, lots of tears, humiliated person. on your front lawn, rethinking the life choices. It's called deterrence, and it works.

The Burn a Launcher, easy to use legal in all 50 states without a permit. And the new compact launcher is tremendous. It's perfect for fitting in purses or concealed carry spots. This is what happens when the good guys decide to stop being easy targets. And for the record, that guy won't be back. Go to Burn a B-Y-R-N-A.com slash Glenn. Use their retail store locator to find the nearest location offering live demonstrations, including sportsman's warehouse stores.

It's Berna retail stores and authorized premier dealers. That's Burnab, B-Y-R-N-A-D-com slash Glenn. Burnah.com slash Glenn. 10-second station ID. So we were talking about having private conversations. And you said something right before the break. And now I can't remember because I was thinking about Berna.

But here's the thing. If you had that bracelet. I would know. But I didn't say anything. I only thought it. I would need the interface. Sarah, what was I just saying? What were we just talking about?

Sarah doesn't listen to the show. show? Pretend you. I'm drunk at this point. Okay, I know. We're an hour three, Glenn. I mean, maybe hour one, first quarter hours. I know I'll remember it here in a second.

So just let's just keep copying our conversation. Because I do think like that that is a massive change to humanity if you can't have a private conversation. Oh, you said that because I remember your thoughts. You said we've lived like this for a long time. Oh, yeah. We've lived like this for a long time. Back in 2008, we go to Fox.

Remember, I'm the most admired man in the world. I'm number three in some poll. In the AP every year they do that poll. And I'm tied with the Pope and Nelson Mandela, okay, for number three. That's how screwed up our values were back then. But anyway. So I go from that on to Fox and all of a sudden it is like hatred. Hatred everywhere.

And everything we say, because we're in New York City, we have to be careful, is somebody listening to us, is anything around? So everything we say in private, unless you were in our own house, until some security guy came and said, um, no, but anything that we were saying in our own house, you know,

might be fine. Everything else and everything I remember saying, every text you write, I don't care who it's to. I don't care what it's about. Imagine it on the front page of the New York Times. You have to write everything as if it's on the front page of the New York. York Times. So it is, it's, I mean, it can be done, but it's really awful. But even then, as you

point out, the house, there are moments where you think you'd have a private conversation with someone. When they're wearing a recordable, which is, again, they're tiny. They're little bracelets. I don't even notice. Here's the thing. My wife wears one of these rings. Uh, whether or a ring. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, and I'm watching this and she, she got up in the morning and she's checking her sleep and stuff and I'm like, can I borrow that ring? And she's like, no, I don't know. Get your own. And I'm like, I really don't want it. But it's pretty cool. It's pretty cool. It tells you everything you need to. I mean, it monitors your body. And it's great if it's contained there and you can go delete. You know what I mean? I mean, and they of course say that.

Even the recording device places say everything's encrypted. It's of course, right? Uh-huh. I will say that the one thing maybe legally you could do on this stuff is, There's only 12 states that are two-party consent states for recordings. That strikes me as wrong. Like, it probably should be a lot higher. Like, I don't know. But if you're recording yourself. Yeah, but if you're having a conversation with someone, it's a one party of consent.

So you're the party. You can say you consent to the recording. I don't care what they do. Do what you want with them. Just leave me alone. This is Glenn Beck. Through every crisis, every bubble, every panic, my view on gold has not changed.

It's not about getting rich. Although if you bought gold when I told you to buy gold in the first place, you're probably doing pretty well. But it's not about that. It's not about chasing a trend. It's about having something real in a world where everything, truly everything, is about to become fake. Gold is a constant.

It retains its value through the ages, providing a rock of stability for, you know, floundering currencies, honestly like the U.S. dollar. When you look at where we're headed, debt, inflation, digital currency experiments, you start to realize why people are, you know, turning back to gold. It's for stability. There's somebody that's buying so much gold in the United States, and we don't know who it is, but I mean pounds of it coming into the United States. And somebody, and I think it's our central bank. I hope it's our government. But somebody is.

It gives you every story that we talk about every day. Again, it's at glenbeck.com. A theme on this program in the coming weeks and months is going to be, it's going to see maybe perhaps on. It's going to be about Europe in other parts of the world because I truly believe that what you saw happen in Saudi Arabia yesterday is another step in Donald Trump redesigning the entire system of the world. You know, we were under the 1946 alliances that have lived past their usefulness a long time ago. And beyond that, Europe has turned against freedom, not against America, but turned against freedom and the basic principles of the West. And they are becoming much more Soviet-like and all about regulation, all about the WEF.

And Donald Trump knows this. And I think, honestly, I hate to say this, but I truly believe it's true. The leadership at the EU and also in Canada and England are actively trying to destroy the United States of America. If they can't have us in their little group, they will destroy us. And that sounds crazy, but I don't think it is. And it explains an awful lot of why Donald Trump is doing what he's doing. And a lot of stuff, if you don't understand this, you won't. understand the real predicament that we're in. Justin Haskins is with us again today because

he's going to be on with us to try to explain some of this tonight on our Wednesday night special where I talk about this. I'm going to set out where we've been and where we're now headed because it's a completely different world. And one of the things I want to talk about so we're not going to have a lot of time to talk about it is, is Carney, Mark Carney, up the new prime minister of Canada. Most people don't know who he is. He is a very dangerous guy. He is a very dangerous guy. And we started talking about him. It wasn't in dark future. It was in the great recent, right? At least five years ago, I think. Five years ago because he was the central bank,

head of the central bank of Canada. Then he became the central bank of London. Liz Truss, the former prime minister, said one of the reasons why they're a failed state is because of his policies. And now he's the prime minister of Canada. And he is a very dangerous man. Justin, start just, I know this is a little out of order, but just start with what he said at Jackson Hole and why it is so important for people to know who he is. Yeah, back before he was a politician running for office, he was a little bit more honest. He was at this conference of central bankers, very important one, international conference of central bankers in Jackson Hole in America. And at that conference, he said very explicitly that what the Western countries need to do, is they need to get rid of the dollar as the World Reserve Currency.

That is a huge problem. We can't have a currency used for international trade, which is what a World Reserve currency is that's based on one country. Instead, we need a digital currency, which is something that we're very concerned about because if it's digital, it can be tracked and everything else. And it needs to be based on a basket of currencies from other Western countries. So if anyone believes that countries don't want to collapse. the United States.

Stu, what does it mean if we lose the World Reserve currency status? What does that mean? It's very negative for the... Yeah, it puts us into a third world country immediately. Immediately. It could. That's probably the worst case, but yeah. I think, hear me out.

Let me explain this better. Immediately, we have no money. Our money is worthless, okay? And so we become somebody that now has to claw their way back out. And we would claw our way back out. But do you agree with that, Justin? I think it would be a bare minimum great depression-like economic crash. And there are big economic advisors who are basically cheering that on, right?

Oh, yeah. And not just all the world economic forum people are for sure. But even Americans, right, like that want to weaken the dollar. So Donald Trump is, Donald Trump, they say that one of the things that he wants is to weaken the dollar. This is the Mar-a-Lago Accord stuff? Yes. And so, but that's not collapse the dollar. That's weaken the dollar.

Right. Okay, bring the dollar down so people can buy our stuff at a better price. And you can go back and forth on that is a weak dollar good or not. But just realize, we have always had the strongest money around, always. And look at our lifestyles. I think that's good. It's very good. It's very good.

Yeah. If the dollar loses its status, there's all sorts of problems with that. One of it's just the perception of it, the confidence level in the U.S. economy, all of that stuff collapsing. Just the debt alone. You say that we're not going to be a third world country. We would not be able to pay the debt. We would not be able to have any of the services. We won't be able to service the debt.

They will feast on our bones like wild. animals. Well, and you have all of this currency floating around the world that has to come back to the United States is nowhere else to spend it. So they're going to bring it all back here. Inflation. Yep. Wild inflation. And then you have to raise interest rates to control that. It's an economic

catastrophe. Here, in Sevres Third World, it's Vimar Republic or Zimbabwe. I agree. Overnight. Yes, I agree. And this is what this guy wants. He's saying, I want this. Supposedly our greatest ally in the north. So huge, huge problem. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. I mean, this guy is one of the ringleaders of the

Great Reset. I just want, I need you to hear this because you have to be the truth teller in your family and in your relationship. And believe me, even in my relationships, I have a hard time because even the people who dearly love me in my family, who disagree with me politically, will think that they know more than I do, and I'm not saying I know everything. And they have corrected me on things, and I've gone, you know what, you're right on that.

But I am saying, I do this for a living. Generally speaking, most people just read social media feeds. You're not an expert on anything. In fact, you're probably dumber for doing that than if you didn't read anything. at all. But it's really important that you have facts and you know, especially when it comes to Canada. This is now the prime minister of Canada. Make no mistake who he is. He was on, what is it, the executive council, the board of trustees. Okay, board of trustees, the highest level of the

world economic forum. Correct. Bodies with Klaus Schwab in it all the way up to his neck. That's right. Not only that, but he was selected by the United Nations to create the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero, which he dreamed up. And this is where we talked about him in Great Reset, right? That's one of the main reasons we talked about him. Because if you remember, when we first started talking about the Great Reset, and nobody believed us, we said, let's look at Mark Carney. What is he doing in Glasgow? And remember, there were two parts of that. There was the Glasgow Financial meetings.

and then right after that came the political meetings. And in one of our books, we were talking about how the financial part of that was much more important than the political stuff. Because all of the teeth came from the financial meetings of Glasgow. And that was his baby, his idea. He ran it. And it now has, what is it, 80 trillion dollars of capital. with the member institutions within it. So we're talking about like Black Rock and big banks and all these institutions,

all a part of this one organization with the idea being we're going to use ESG to impose radical climate policy type stuff, force the transition around the world to green energy, all of that was the point of it. I've never had this conversation with you. I, you know, everybody's telling us now, oh, that's all falling apart. I don't believe that for a second. I believe that it looks like it's falling apart and they're talking a good game and maybe they're hedging their bet. But they will go back to that in a heartbeat if they can.

I would argue that to some extent they have changed, I would say they've changed strategies to some extent. Yes. Okay. And I would say that a lot of that's driven by AI because so much of this was built around fossil fuels and trying to make the force this transition away from fossil fuels. Tons of money poured into that. And the idea was we need to move away from fossil fuels and go to green energy and we're going to force everyone to do it through banks and insurance companies and we're all going to get to there and do that. That was what Glasgow was the climate meeting. That was the point of that.

But now we need energy because how are we going to run all of our AI systems? And suddenly at the same time that BlackRock and all these big asset managers and Wall Street firms and banks started pouring money into AI, they also suddenly stopped talking about ESG and started talking about nuclear power and. buying nuclear plants and all of that. You know, this is the, nobody reported on this. When he told me this and his, you know what I'm talking about? When I was with the president and I'm doing the interview and I'm going to ask him about nuclear power and he volunteers it and I'm thinking, this is the front page of the New York Times.

He's just said he's going to make these AI companies utilities that will, they'll be able to build their own nuclear power, up to 65 nuclear power plants by 2028. Right. And they will control them. And he's cutting all the red tape. And nobody said anything about it. And why does he want to do that? Because that's what they want. That's what they're saying. We need this. That's what they're saying. And so this, there's no question that there's been a shift in strategy. But the ideology behind all of these movements is the same ideology. All they have to do is find another boogeyman. Yeah. That's exactly right.

warming won't work because they have to have all of this energy. Correct. That's exactly right. And so Carney was a huge mastermind behind that. The currency issue, he was, he was the head of the Bank of Canada during the financial crash 2008, all of that stuff. He was a big part of their policies, tarp-like bailouts and all of that kind of stuff. He's running. Can you imagine he's going to be much, much worse than Fidel Castro's son. Much worse. Well, the thing that's crazy. is, and this is so important. So I'm a proud American. And like all proud Americans, I don't respect Canada. Okay. I have a very low opinion of Canada, just like all proud Americans. I like Canada. And I grew up in New Hampshire, which is a border state. So we really didn't respect Canada.

I grew up in Washington State about 45 miles away. But the reality is when you look, when you look at Canada and you actually pull up the numbers, you look at the size of the economy and the importance of it geopolitical. It's actually far more important than most people realize. Oh, yes. So, 10th in the world in terms of the size of its economy, 10th in the world. Largest trade partner of the United States, bigger than China. Number one, and it's been that way for decades, two decades worth of that. Second largest landmass in the world. Founding member of NATO, and still part of NATO holds high-level positions in NATO. Soon to be our 50 first state. Yep. One of the G7. That's supposed to be the seven most important countries. And it's one of them. Right. And this guy is now being

put in that position. Now think of all of that, a hub for banking and everything else. So think of all of that plus his background at the UN, plus his ties to all these big international organizations. And he was elected basically as the anti-Trump part of the anti-Trump party. And so he has, in his mind, a mandate, I'm sure, to be opposite of Trump, try to under- Trump, and that's his whole ideology. At the same time that this is happening, all the other big great reset players, many of them, not all of them, have gone away. They're gone. They've either been thrown out or they've been pushed out. LaClauhauswab and his whole family is all gone now from the World Economic Forum. A lot of the European leaders have turned over, not all of them, but there

have been a number of that. Right-wing parties have more power in Europe than they ever had before. This is one of the main guys now leading this charge. And Canada, is stronger now. Stronger, yes. This guy didn't get hurt because nobody voted for this guy. At the beginning, he was like, all of a sudden, you're like, wait a minute, wasn't he with the Bank of England? How did that happen?

And now all of a sudden he's the, hey, why don't you just come on in and you take over the prime minister's job until the election. At first, nobody knew who he was and he wasn't voted for. That's right. Now he's been voted in. So not to sound conspiratorial, but it seems. selected. I think selected is the right way of he was chosen to be the head of Canada. Let's be honest. Donald Trump did not help by saying, you know, Canada, our 51st state. That wasn't helpful.

No. That made that made the conservatives look bad. That's right. In Canada. It stirred up all the nationalism, which is the only reason this guy is now in power there. And you know, Trump, I know, has addressed that, but look, it would be better for us if we had someone sane up there. Oh my gosh. It would be great for us. We do a lot of trade with them. We do a lot of, business with them. Again, I think that's why the president is making friends with people that we've been friendly with, but like Saudi Arabia, come on on, come on in. Because I think he, I think he has more in common, believe it or not, with them. I think America has more in common with them, because they're not trying to cut our heads off. I mean, they will eventually,

don't get me wrong, but they're not trying to cut the head off of America, where I think many countries in Europe are back in a minute. So there are still organizations quietly doing the work that matters most, and pre-born is one of them, and their mission is simple, but the results are anything but small. Last year alone, through supportive people just like you, pre-born helped save over 52,000 babies from abortion, not through protest or politics, but through compassion and truth. Their approach is straightforward. When a woman is in crisis pregnancy, and she's got that situation, she comes into a pre-born supported clinic, and she's offered a free ultrasound. and more than half the time when she hears that heartbeat, she chooses life. Half the time.

Preborn walks with her through the journey, providing counseling, maternity clothes, connection to resources, ongoing support because this woman is absolutely alone. Most times, no one in her family is supporting a decision for life. Somebody has to be there for her. That's us. That's preborn. That's you.

You can change a life, two lives. You can save two lives, mom and baby. $28 will provide that ultrasound. Get involved, just dial pound 250, say the keyword baby. That's pound 250 keyword baby. Or go to preborn.com slash Beck. That's preborn. com slash back sponsored by preborn.

Freedom's like a wild horse. If you don't grab the reins every once in a while, you're liable to catch a hoof to the face. And trust me, that ain't pleasant. Beck will be right back after this.
