The Glenn Beck Program - WAKE UP: Another Socialist Wins in the MIDDLE of America | 7/1/26
Episode Date: July 1, 2026Glenn and his team discuss what they saw as they arrived in Washington, D.C., for America’s 250th Independence Day celebration. As the nation is still reacting to the Supreme Court's upholding of bi...rthright citizenship, Glenn reads the actual text of the 14th Amendment, which says that those born are citizens “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” Glenn argues this cuts against what many on the Left are claiming supports birthright citizenship. Glenn and Jason discuss the controversial film “Citizen Vigilante,” which is circulating among right-wing influencers. But is the movie actually a conservative think piece? Jason gives his breakdown and reveals whether he recommends that people watch the film. Glenn monologues on the importance of the man with the pen, the man who authored the most important document in American history: Thomas Jefferson. Glenn shares why Americans need to be hopeful and confident in the face of darkness and uncertainty, knowing that after 250 years, America’s story is far from over. For America’s 250th birthday, Americans need to commit to restoring the country to its original beauty, rather than replacing it with something else. Learn more about your ad choices.

Keeping yourself and your family safe means being prepared for situations that can, you know, put you or them in danger.
It means being prepared for all the situations, you know, even those situations where deadly force is not needed.
In fact, it's a real problem.
There are more of those than you think.
And if you're a gun owner, it's unfortunately easy to think a gun will provide you all the safety it needs, but you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody.
And I'm not in all situations, you know, but they can go bad fast.
There is a tool for this.
It's the burn a launcher.
It's a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home that will teach somebody a very painful, non-lethal lesson.
It's legal in all 50 states, no permits or background checks required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18.
My kids carry them in their backpacks.
You'd be confident that you are prepared to defend yourself against potential threats.

What a coincidence, and my name is Glenn Beck.
Hello, from the nation's capital in Washington, D.C., where it is hot as hell.
But an amazing setup.
I mean, I got to tell you, the government is spending around $300 million to be able to put this whole thing on.
It is, it's incredible.
I've never seen anything like it.
And I've been to Washington, D.C. since the 80s.
and I've never seen this city so clean.
The parks are clean, and nobody's here
because all the Trump haters are absolutely gone.
But it is promising to be an incredible weekend.
If you're anywhere in the area,
you should come to Washington, D.C. and see this.
Because I'll tell you here in a few minutes,
you've never seen anything like this before.
There are several things that have never been done before.
I mean, not just in Washington, D.C.,
but in the history of the world.
that are happening this weekend,
that if you want to do something great for Fourth of July,
this is the place you should be this week.
All right, also, I want to tell you, there's choices.
You could go to California.
I want to tell you about El Cajon
and what they're doing in California
because it, I don't think they understand the idea of Independence Day.
I'll give you this.
Also, the Socialist One again, again,
in Denver, people are saying, you know, oh, well, this is good. I'm not sure it is. I'm not sure it is.
I'm not sure that the Democrats are all that opposed to what is being proposed here.
Citizen Vigilante, we have to talk about, I've got part two of the Declaration of Independence
that we're going to talk about this program. There's just a bunch. Buckle up. We're going to begin

So in El Cajon, California,
Mayor Bill Wells is doing a Fourth of July celebration.
And this is why I say,
please call this Independence Day.
Let's stop calling it
4th of July. It's Independence Day celebration because what they're having in El Cajon, California,
is a 4th of July celebration. Here's what's happening between 3 and 545, set up in sound check
media statements at 6, at 6, at 6, guest arrival and networking. And then the program begins.
At 545, the tribal intimate blessing welcome to land. Then at 6 p.m., that's from 545 to 6.
So you got that going for 15 minutes.
And then at 6 p.m. for 10 minutes, a welcome and land acknowledgement.
Then it's 6.10.
This is California.
At 6.10, the tribal invocation.
Then at 6.20, the national black anthem.
Then at 635, the local tribal community stories.
Then at 7 is the Latino community stories.
at 725 is the Asian-American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander community stories.
That goes from 725 to 750.
Then 750 is the LGBTQIA plus community stories.
That goes from 750 to 725, 725, 725, the black and African community stories.
And then, closing remarks.
Happy Fourth of July, everybody.
that is their Fourth of July.
Oh, and they have fireworks after that.
I don't think we live in the same country anymore.
I think everything has changed.
And meanwhile, here in Washington, D.C., things are, again,
last night I got in and I took a walk.
I walked about two miles around the mall.
It is, if you didn't, if you've never been to Washington, D.C.,
you won't know.
what at Washington, D.C. actually looks like when all of this stuff isn't here. They have fencing
around the White House. You can't get within two blocks of the White House. So you can only see it
about two blocks away. All of the, the ellipse is closed. The Lafayette Park in front is closed.
So you can only see it from about a block and a half to two blocks away. And it's really
disappointing. I went up to one of the Secret Service agents. I said, is this the way it's always going to be
now because it's really bad.
Security-wise.
And they said, no, no, no, it's just for this event.
But then you get to the mall.
And they have built infrastructure that is,
I've never seen anything like it.
I've never seen any like it.
Stadium seating around the national right behind the Washington monument as you're
looking towards the,
Lincoln Memorial.
That's where the fireworks, the main
fireworks stage is going to be.
There is going to be flyovers
from some of our biggest jets, including
the first time
the new Air Force 1 will be flown.
They're going to fly it over the mall.
NASA's got a lot of
old experimental planes. They're going to be
flying all week long. There's a rodeo
here. The amazing
thing is, is the
fireworks. Now, this
will show you how bad the media has done their job.
I don't know what's going on here in Washington, D.C.
Do you?
Do you have any idea?
This is historic on multiple levels.
They have never done just the state fair.
They have never done a state fair like this ever.
This is like the World's Fair.
If you remember those, if you're my age when you're a kid,
They used to do World's Fair, except it's one country.
The entire thing is a thousand acres.
That's the event space.
A thousand acres.
It's all 50 states, or supposed to be, all 50 states.
The NASA is here with experimental prototypes, a moonscape of showing you what it's going to be like when we start to live on the moon, all these different things.
and then it culminates on Saturday with fireworks.
Now, fireworks in Washington, D.C. are always spectacular.
To give you some perspective of what is happening this weekend in Washington, D.C.,
if you're anywhere in the East Coast and you like fireworks,
you will never, ever, ever again see fireworks like this.
The typical small town runs about 300,
to maybe a thousand arterial shells, okay?
300 to 1,000.
A large city, you're living in Dallas or Chicago or something like that.
You get 3,000 to 8,000 shells.
America's biggest annual shows,
let's use the Macy's 4th of July fireworks in New York City.
That's the biggest in the country.
They use 80,000 effects over 25 minutes.
80,000.
You want to know how big this one is?
The largest in the country is 80,000 shells.
This Saturday, Washington for the 250 will set the world record of 850,000.
80, it's over 10 times the size of the largest fireworks.
show in America. It is 10 times that size. They think, they don't know because they haven't
announced everything, they think they're going to be putting up 16 inch shells. Those go up about
two and a half miles in the air and they're four football fields wide when they, that's,
that's a quarter of a mile wide, one firework. It's launching from eight separate stations.
They're using all of the monuments. They say they're going to bring the monument. They're going to
bring the monuments to life by using these shells.
It's never, ever been done before.
Nobody ever thinks that it will be done again.
Last year for Fourth of July, which I don't know if you saw the Fourth of July here in
Washington, D.C., they're spectacular, especially with Donald Trump.
Last year they spent, uh, what was it?
Uh, a hundred, I think it was a hundred and sixty thousand dollars or maybe it was a hundred
thousand. This year,
$1.6 million.
Nobody's ever done it.
It'll be a Guinness World Record. And I guarantee you, if you like fireworks, you will
never, ever see them like this again. China has not even done it this size.
And China's fireworks shows are spectacular.
So it's only 850 times larger than your local fireworks show.
and 100 to 200 times larger than your average big city fireworks show and about 11 times larger than what you would see in New York City.
How come we're not hearing about that?
How come we haven't heard about the rodeo on the mall?
How come we're not hearing that the the Thunderbirds and what's the other one?
The Blue Angels.
Sorry, Navy.
The Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds.
the way blue angels are better.
Both of them are performing this week.
How come we're not hearing any of this?
I swear to you, the press hates Donald Trump so much,
they will sell us down the river.
They will sell their own country down the river.
This is the most spectacular thing that has ever been done for any anniversary of
the United States.
It dwarfs everything else we have ever done to celebrate the 4th of July.
It dwarfs everything anyone has ever done.
And you're not hearing about it.
I hate the press.
I absolutely hate them.
Hate them.
I was walking through last night.
I haven't even seen anything yet.
I'm going to speak on the main stage today at what time?
One?
2 p.m. Eastern.
I'm going to be teaching the Declaration of Independence.
And I'm really excited to do it.
I don't know if anybody's going to be there because it's hot as hell.
It's so hot here.
But I'm going to be teaching the Declaration of Independence.
I haven't even seen, I mean, Rob, our engineer, he was there yesterday.
He said he's never seen anything like it.
I haven't even seen that part.
I just, I saw down by the Lincoln Memorial.
It's incredible.
If you're anywhere near, you should come.
You should come.
And you should come and just see the parks.
You should just come and see how clean everything is.
Did you guys get a chance?
Ricky, did you see it?
Jason, did you see?
Yeah.
Last night we, my flight was late, but that delays things.
We saw the Washington Monument at sunset with 250 lit up on the side of the monument,
and my jaw dropped.
And I know it's just a taste of what the city is going to look like.
And I am heartbroken that people in the DMV area, most of them, Democrats who hate Trump,
are not going to be celebrating America.
You can almost point out, though,
who is a Trump supporter
when you see him in the walking in the sidewalk?
They're wearing a flag.
That's like a dead tell that they're a MAGA supporter.
And you can tell, I mean, it didn't used to be that way,
but it's a tell you know who's a MAGA supporter
because you're here.
There's like nobody here.
There's nobody here.
It's insane.
There's going to be some Torch Insiders here.
Are there?
They're coming to your speech.
Oh, you're kidding me.
Really?
Yeah.
They've self-organized.
I just leave it to them.
Flag's never going down.
I mean, you want to talk about Fort McHenry.
Do you know the Fort McHenry story when they were shelling?
That when they finally went to see the fort,
there was a pile of bodies underneath the flag.
Because the flag, once the flag comes down,
it's a sign that you've surrendered.
And so they wanted to keep the flag up.
So people were holding it up and being shot.
And then others would come and just hold up the flag at Fort McHenry.
Those are the insiders, man.
They're never going to let that flag fall.
They just love them.
Let's see.
There's also tonight, there's the Golden Door from Washington, D.C., live from D.C.
I'm doing the special from Ellis Island to the White House, the Golden Door.
This is the history of immigration.
And I got to tell you, especially with what's going on, you read the 14th Amendment.
You really have to read it because you don't hear it.
We were on the plane.
My son was talking about what was happening.
and he reaches into his pocket and he pulls out his constitution and I'm like, oh my gosh,
he's turned into one of those nerds.
He's a kid with a pocket constitution.
So he pulls out the pocket constitution and he's reading it to me and he's like,
dad, explain this to me.
And I'm like, okay, I don't have a constitution.
I'll try.
He said, all persons born are naturalized in the United States.
They're subject to the jurisdiction thereof.
Are citizens of the United States and the state within where they reside?
no state shall make or enforce any law that will bridge the privileges or immunity of citizens of the United States, blah, blah, blah.
And he's like, this was for the slaves, right?
And I'm like, yes, it was for the slaves.
I don't understand because it says, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.
And I'm like, dude, I don't know who raised you, but yes, because I didn't think you were listening to me at all in your teen years.
And he's like, I didn't, Dan.
I didn't.
I've joined the people at TPP USA.
I'm like,
ghar.
Anyway, subject to the jurisdiction thereof,
the debate that we're having right now is whether a child whose parents just touched
U.S.
soil yesterday and then went into labor and gave birth today,
are they subject to our jurisdiction?
Are they?
Are they actually falling under our laws?
Are they living under our law?
Are they just popping in and visiting?
That,
you can't you can't answer that or really even debate it without historic context and i want to turn
that over to clarence thomas clarence thomas was fabulous on this yesterday we'll talk about that here in

I'm going to follow this up with Clarence Thomas and what he said in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about IFCJ.
One of the things.
things that makes a great friendship, friendship is when your friendship is based on shared values.
You don't stand by somebody because it's convenient.
You stand by them because you believe the same things.
And that is largely the relationship between the United States and Israel.
The big things we agree on.
We may not agree on war and everything else.
But our two countries have been linked forever by a shared commitment to freedom,
faith, and democracy.
And the belief that human life has inherent value.
Now, they get the socialist stuff all wrong, okay? I don't want to fight any of their wars,
but the principles are there. This is why I'm grateful for the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
They're providing food and shelter and medical care, security, and other life-saving support
for the Jews in Israel who need it most. I mean, imagine being a Jew today, anywhere in the world.
How terrifying it must be. Please be one of those Christians. It says, not again, never again, not on my watch.
As America celebrates 250 years of independence, the international fellowship of Christians and Jews turns to God in prayer
asking that his wisdom will guide elected officials and lead America and Israel to moral clarity and unity.
USA, you can get a USA Israel flagpin today when you go online at flagpin.ifcj.org.
That's flagpinifcj.org. 10 seconds, station ID.
So Clarence Thomas wrote the dissent yesterday. He said the Citizenship Clause was enacted for people who were
born in this country and called it home. It was enacted for free slaves such as Dred Scott,
who had a domicile here and therefore were entitled to sue as citizens. It was enacted for men
such as Frederick Douglass who demanded citizenship, not as aliens or exiles, but as Americans.
Its authors and supporters promised over and over again that it would exclude the children of persons
temporarily resident here, whom we would have no right to make citizens. In Senator Trumbull's
world, words, he was a major player in support of adopting the 14th Amendment. What do you mean by
subject to the jurisdiction of the United States? Not owing allegiance to anyone else? That's what it
means. And after decades after ratification, it was interpreted by all three branches of government by a
wide range of legal authorities to be limited to people who are already Americans. The 14th Amendment
is a response to the awful Dred Scott decision. The court had ruled no black person, free
slave could be a U.S. citizen.
That's Dred Scott. He's like,
no, they live here under
our jurisdiction. What
we have done is we have
just opened the door for China
to invade. And I have to tell you,
I think there is a way around this.
I think the president could call
this an invading army.
And that changes everything.
You ever wonder why everybody's like,
it's not an invasion, it's not an invasion,
it's not an invasion.
This is why, because the way to stop this is to call it an invasion.
We'll have more on this, and don't miss this special tonight.
You're going to love it.
The Golden Door only on the Torch.
Torch-250.com.
All right, let me tell you about rapid radios.
There's an old expression about herding cats.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're traveling with my family?
It's a cat family.
Getting them all at the same place at the same time,
you know exactly what it means.
somebody took the wrong turn, somebody else stopped for coffee.
One person thought you said, the north entrance, another is waiting in the south entrance,
and the guy who was just supposed to bring the cooler is somehow and another ended up 10 miles away.
This is why you want rapid radios.
You don't have to play phone tag, wait for somebody to notice a text or wonder if somebody got the message.
We have them here as a family because we're doing a big family reunion here in Washington, D.C. this week.
And all you have to do is just push a button and talk.
And sometimes that's the difference between chaos and a smooth day.
It's just simple, everybody being able to communicate.

Don't miss it.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Oh, man.
It's out of control.
If you're not an insider, you should be an insider at the torch.
Because when we're all together in the same room, it doesn't go smoothly.
Let's just say that.
It's not going to go smoothly.
Let me see.
I want to play a couple of things.
do we have
the audio
from
Nate Friedman
This is amazing
This is amazing
Which cut is this one
Ricky
Two cuts
Go ahead
Go ahead
You guys
Permission
From the office to fill
You went to the office
The permission
Which office?
Go on
You gotta go to office
It's private property
You got to go aside
That's fine
We can tell Lily
We can film it.
We're gonna make sure that they're gonna get us.
Okay, let's get permission.
But nobody can't come here and do what they want to do.
Okay, let's go in.
You told us to come in.
You're not.
Get out.
You're not allowed in the property.
You're done.
Can you say why?
Yeah, because it's private property.
Here.
You don't have that reason.
What?
It's private property.
Go outside.
Go out.
Okay.
But can you state the reason, though?
Yeah, you made it very uncomfortable.
Who?
The guy, the guy that I'm interviewed.
No, but the guy that I was interviewing, he was, we ever announced a nice conversation.
So we're walking away from the mosque for about two minutes, and when we get to our car, we turn around and see this.
Look at this.
Why are you filming yesterday?
You're filming the license plate?
Why are you filming or film this?
So why are you?
Why did you come and film our license plate?
We're off of the private property.
We're literally off of the property.
Okay, because you're recording us.
I'm recording you.
Do you realize that we're going to look up if you don't, this is not private property right here.
This is not your private property.
So we're going to look up.
We're going to look up the lease.
So what is happening here, Ricky?
Independent journalist Nate Friedman, he went to New Jersey and he said that he exposed the Islamic
takeover it and that the mayor of Patterson, where he was, has renamed his city,
the capital of Palestine and America.
Main Street is now Palestine.
way.
There's no way that's true.
That was my thought.
There's no way that's true.
Yeah.
So he tries to go into a mosque, which, you know, as a Jew, maybe it would be a little
bit difficult.
Yeah.
And he gets kicked off the property.
They start following him to the car.
He's got, there's a few other clips where he documents the, just how insane, the invasion
in New Jersey, one of the most America states in the union has now become a little Islam.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is there another cut worth playing?
Yeah, I would say, let's see, cut four.
When walking down the street, I noticed this barbershop put a shirt out in the window that said Jews did 9-11.
I wanted to ask the barbershop owner about it, and then this happened.
How's going on?
What's going on?
Can I see a question?
So I'm from Manhattan, and I'm doing a video on Patterson, New Jersey.
Could I, I would love to speak to someone who works with this barbershop.
You work with the barbershop?
I just didn't know if you were waiting to get a cut or not.
Yeah, you work for them?
I noticed an interesting shirt on the window.
What are you guys, first of all?
Oh, I'm a journalist from Manhattan.
What are you? What's your background?
My background? I'm an independent journalist.
You're a Jew or you a Zionist? What are you?
Am I a Jew or a Zionist? Why does it matter if I'm a Jew or a Zionist?
Take a walk, buddy.
Why does it matter?
Just take a walk. Why does it matter from a Jew or Zionist?
Oh, why does it matter?
Okay. So, you just shut it matter.
over the door in front of my face.
His shirt says
Jews did it for 9-11.
No Jews allowed.
In America.
Tell me this isn't an invasion.
In America.
Get out if you're a Jew.
I've seen this movie before.
We all have. It's called Schindler's List.
That's how this ends.
Now, let me
take it to an unconventional connection.
Let me take you to citizen vigilante.
You seen this movie yet?
Yes.
Saw this movie on the plane yesterday.
I can't recommend it.
It's not that good of a movie in the first place,
and it's extraordinarily violent,
and it's just, it's a mess.
It's a mess.
But it is worth talking about.
It's been banned in Germany
because it shows in the end,
spoiler alert if you're going to watch it,
but this guy comes in,
he's a citizen vigilante, obviously by the name,
and he is writing all the wrongs.
And he goes into this Islamic house,
and he's talking to, you know, the kids,
and he's like, why did you rape them?
Well, it was a mistake.
I thought she wanted it.
Oh, really? You thought she wanted it?
I mean, it was a ridiculous excuse.
And then the family start,
the family starts saying,
girls wanted it because the way they're dressed.
That was a girl on the couch that said that, an Islamist girl.
And he looks at the father and says, is this how you're raising?
These are the values you're raising?
Yeah.
And he shoots them all.
And then before he does, he says, call all your friends over and just pile of bodies.
And it is, it is being viewed with satisfaction in some communities.
And it is, I think it's extraordinarily dangerous.
If you look at American movies, you have Pale Rider, you have Unforgiven, right?
You have High Noon, even have that Charles Bronson movie.
What's a death is a death wish?
Yeah.
You have all of these, all of these movies.
You have, what's the movie?
Tom Cruise did one movie.
Reacher.
All of these guys are reluctant heroes, okay?
They were not, they were not looking.
for trouble. They saw something go on and they had to take care of it because nobody was taking
care of it. They were not saying, join me in this. They were not glorifying it. They were just trying
to solve a problem. Even the equalizer is like that. He doesn't want to do any of this. This guy does.
This guy wants to. This guy's becoming famous. This guy in the end does not ride away in the sunset.
this guy is making himself he wants to be famous because he wants to get others to do it
and he's constantly saying i'm doing this for you i'm doing this for you and none of that
rang true to me this is an enormous moral shift i think our movies always when we had these
anti-heroes with an exception of batman but even batman
goes through this time of like,
am I a bad guy?
I'm a bad guy.
Am I a bad guy?
These anti-heroes are really, really dangerous.
The gunfighter that stays becomes the tyrant.
And this guy is not saying that the law is just broken.
He's saying, I'm above the law.
I'm above the law.
I am the law.
You will fix it or I'm,
I will fix you.
And I just think, you know, a hero, a hero is trying to make himself unnecessary and does not look for the fame.
At the end of all American heroes, these guys, like, look at Unforgiven is the best one.
He turns a preacher because he knows what he's doing is wrong.
He's a preacher.
He only reluctantly at the very last minute goes and rides away to get his gun to be able to do something.
And at the very end, he doesn't want to be glorified for it.
He rides away.
Preacher, we love you.
I love you, preacher.
He's riding away.
He doesn't want any part of that.
That's not this guy.
This is, I think this is a dangerous movie.
Yeah.
And what's unfortunate is there was some rhetoric.
There was a lot of things done in this movie.
It was very, a range of emotions when I watched this.
There was a lot of things done very deliberately, but then other things done slightly.
like, and some of that is the use of like some, what people would consider right-wing rhetoric,
where they, they mentioned a couple times the woke left, other things.
But at the, but at the, so.
And the fact that he's an American.
And he's American, he's actually an American, multiple people pointed out,
illegal immigrant in the country at the same time.
And apparently a multimillionaire.
So very wealthy kind of guy.
He's an elite.
One of the unfortunate things is there were some right-wing influencers that were, you know,
championing this and like kind of talking it up.
But did you notice, Glenn, and throughout the entire movie, they made a, the director made a very
specific effort to make this guy not look like a good guy.
Oh, the minute he starts killing all the cops.
I'm done.
I was done with the movie.
The minute he starts killing the cops.
There was like, okay.
There was the time just approval point where he swerved in front of the car.
Yeah.
Yeah, that guy's probably dead.
Yeah.
The soft core porn scene with the prostitute.
I was like, oh, my gosh, how long I'm going to watch.
Yeah.
But I mean, but at the same.
I didn't see.
I don't.
What was the point of that?
Yeah.
I think just to make him, I think the whole point was to make this, to, to point out actual things that are happening.
To point out that, yes, this is an issue.
Like in the UK, there are some very bad things that are happening because of mass illegal immigration.
The governments are failing.
They're turning a blind eye to it.
Multiple different cases were actual mirrors of real cases that have happened.
Right.
But they showed that this is not a good guy.
He's a very bad guy.
He's an evil guy.
If government fails to protect their people, if they allow these things to happen, there will be a Bubba effect.
And you will not like the devil that shows up afterwards.
I agree 100% with that.
And if that's indeed what the director was trying to show, that's fine.
But I think there's going to be a lot of people that don't get that message from it.
Yes, I agree.
A, you know, they'll just...
What? It's number one on iTunes, Amazon.
And it's not a good movie.
I mean, let's, I mean, just let's talk about it as a movie.
It's a bad movie.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it was like, oh, God, okay.
Lots of violence, violence, violence, and then really slow nothing for a long time.
You're like, oh, it's a bad movie.
But the message itself, I think, is really bad.
You know, the cowboy always wants to put away the gun.
Always wants to put away the gun.
the night at the end of the bloodshed.
He wants to go home.
He wants that.
I didn't get the impression this guy wants it.
And I think because especially that last scene that is so real, especially if you're over in England or you're in Germany, that stuff is happening.
That is absolutely happening.
And you'll watch that and you'll be like, damn right.
That's exactly what should happen.
And like you said, you're not going to like this.
guy who shows up. Yeah, and yeah, a lot of things they point, they point out, like, even the,
there's some insiders now talking about, you know, the police and how they were portrayed.
That's even the case, like in the UK, you know, like the police, a lot of times will either be
arresting people for hanging flags or because their superiors are telling them this, the government,
the political structure is telling them to do this, or they're not arresting the people that
are actually doing the crimes. Well, here's the other thing, because does it happen in Germany?
It happens to Germany, right? Here's the other thing about this.
movie that is just ridiculous. That guy would have been arrested 10 minutes into this movie.
I mean, he touches everything. It's almost like he's signing his name on every crime scene. I'm like,
in America, this guy would have been behind bars already. They would have had him already.
The guy is like, he'll leave his gun places. He practically walks out of a door in one place and it's like,
touch, touch the doorknop. Door not. Don, I got to touch, touch, touch, touch. Touch. Touch.
touch touch and you're like, do they have fingerprinting?
Is anybody going to arrest this guy?
And he's,
he's pixelated.
He's got the American accent.
You know what he sounds like.
I mean, you know the general shape of his head.
They have him at one point.
They pick up his glass.
I didn't even understand this.
They pick up his glass,
which the reason why they pick it up is to get his fingerprints.
The fingerprints.
are all over the crime scenes.
And they can't catch this guy.
I mean, it's just, it's a stupid, stupid movie.
But, uh, dangerous.
Dangerous.
Dangerous.
Because that is not the answer.
But if people stop, if they don't start listening to the one thing he said in it was,
you're not protecting the people who elected you.
You're not listening to the people who elected you.
True.
And that's true.
True. Again, you got to hold two things in separate hands. That's true. Civil, uh, uh, citizen, uh, vigilante. That's evil. Both of those things can be true. All right, back in just a minute.
There are only so many dad gifts available in the world before everything gets just a little bit repetitive.
At a certain point, every father in America owns enough novelty grilling aprons, uh, socks with the tiny golf clubs on them and the coffee mugs with
those hilarious sarcastic slogans. Those are all great, of course. But I would say food,
better option, especially the food is really, really good. And that brings me to Kexi. Kexi has a
special Father's Day cookie box available right now with six gourmet cookies baked fresh and shipped
everywhere nationwide. And these things look absolutely insane in the best possible way.
They're my favorite cookies in the world. You will love them. One of their featured cookies is
their peanut butter marshmallow flavor combines warm peanut butter,
melted chocolate and gooey marshmallow into something that honestly sounds less like a cookie and more like a controlled substance.
They've also got a smores cookie. This is incredible. It kind of tastes like an entire summer camping trip condensed into dessert form.

My Patriot Supply is our sponsor.
We tend to think of freedom as the ability to do whatever we want.
But that's not true.
There's another kind of freedom that we don't talk about as much.
The freedom of not having to panic.
The freedom of knowing that something is.
interrupts daily life, your family isn't immediately in trouble because you have balanced your
freedom with responsibility. You thought ahead. That's a different kind of independence.
That's what real independence is, responsibility and freedom. Well, I love Patriot Supply. My Patriot
Supply, they've helped millions of Americans become more self-reliant with emergency food, water
filtration, backup power, other preparedness essentials. I have used them for years. My family is prepared.
preparedness isn't about expecting the worst.
It's about making sure that the people you love are taking care of.
So if life throws you a curveball, you can focus on solving the problem instead of scrambling to find your next meal.
That's what real.
Can we stop calling me during the show, please?
You know, Sarah.
That's what real independence looks like.
They're celebrating America's 250th anniversary right now.
Some of their biggest savings of the year.
Preparedness has never been about fear.
It's about freedom.
The freedom that comes from knowing that your family will be okay even when things don't go according to plan.

Feel reason for immigration?
Glenn destroys the lies in a brand new documentary streaming tonight.
Excited for that tonight.
Jason was with me when we filmed it.
and it's kind of one of my favorite things to do to walk around New York and just tell stories.
Rob said he saw a part of the documentary last night, our engineer Rob, and he said the thing he liked was one of the stories that I tell about, you know, I tell about the first terrorist bombing, the worst terrorist bombing until the Oklahoma City bombing.
And, you know, it happened over 100 years ago.
and I take you to that place
and it happens to be right where we're talking about something else
and I turn around and I show this pockmarks on the wall.
Nobody ever sees it.
Nobody ever knows.
Nobody even asks what is that?
It's the sign of the largest terrorist attack
in American history up until Oklahoma City.
And you'll see it tonight.
It's just a cool documentary.
It's a live documentary.
I'll be there to answer your questions and everything else after.
We begin the pre-show at about
7.30 Eastern, the show starts at 8. If you're not a member, join us now. You don't want to miss this
tonight. Live from the nation's capital, the golden door, from Ellis Island to the White House,

something is wrong, we'll know it, or our doctor will catch it at the annual physical, but that's
really not how it works. Most health problems build slowly. You're a little more tired than he used to be.
Your sleep isn't quite as good these days. Maybe you feel a little,
foggy, a little off. And every year you're told, good news, your blood work looks fine, until one
day it doesn't. And by that point, you're not preventing a problem. You're managing one.
That's why I like what Jevity does. They look deeper at over a hundred different labs,
including hormones, inflation, metabolic health, nutrient levels, the kinds of things that
actually help you understand what's happening in your body years before a diagnosis.

Have you seen the new Air Force One? It is gorgeous. It is unbelievable. How much do you want to
make a bet when the next president gets in, they're going to paint it Robin Blue again?
They will repaint that thing because they'll be like, no Trump, no Trump, red, white and blue, who wants that?
It is a beautiful, beautiful Air Force One.
And you'll see it in the skies.
They're going to do a flyover right before the biggest fireworks show in the history of the world.
It is 11 times the size of the biggest fireworks show ever in America.
It is, the biggest show in America is about 8,000 shells.
I'm sorry, 80,000 shells.
This one is 850,000.
They say some of these fireworks will be as much as a quarter of a mile across.
You'll never see any fireworks show like this, and they're doing such a poor job.
The press is just ignoring this, like crazy.
crazy. You've never seen anything like this. What's happening in Washington, you should be here.
I'll be speaking today at 2 p.m. on the national mall at the main stage today. I'm teaching the
Constitution, so it'll be excited. There's nothing like listening to somebody teach the Constitution
and in 110 degrees. Oh my gosh. Color me there, Batman. But I'm going to also tell you
the next phase of our story on the Declaration of Independence and signing of the Declaration
yesterday. I told you on June 11th, 1776, they appointed five men to a committee. It was
Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, Robert Livingston out of New York, and a 33-year-old
red-headed lawyer from Virginia. No one understood when they picked him to be part of the committee
exactly what was happening. He didn't either. But I want you to think of
Thomas Jefferson here because that's exactly where this part of the story begins with Thomas Jefferson
and it is not the story you were told. We begin there in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about
chapter. You know who I always listen to? A, my wife, because she's always right, two, the mechanic
who always starts saying, so what's your car's been doing that's got you worry? Before he ever
talks about how to fix it, he doesn't walk into the garage and saying, hey, hey, everybody,
everybody needs a new transmission.
He asks questions.
When does it make the noise?
Does it happen all the time?
Or is it just when it's cold?
Does it pull to the left?
In other words, he wants to understand the problem
before he recommends the solution.
And that is exactly how I think people should approach Medicare.
It's not one plan that's right for everybody.
Your doctors are different.
Your prescriptions are different.
Your needs.
Your health is different.
And that's why I recommend chapter.
They don't start by trying to push
towards some sort of an insurance company,
they start with you.
They take the time to understand your situation
and then they help you find the right plan.
It's chapter.
I want you to go right now.
It's pound 250.
Say the keyword chapter.
Pound 250, keyword chapter.
So the most important words ever written about human freedom,
the words that would go on to topple empires and free slaves
and shamed tyrants for 250 years were written by a man
who did not want the assignment.
He didn't want to be in the city.
Most people don't know.
He was drowning in grief.
He almost didn't even make it into the room.
You know, we've turned Thomas Jefferson into marble,
a face in the mountain, a face on the nickel,
a powdered wig and a serene gaze and a quill held at the perfect angle.
Take away the wig and the marble and all of that stuff.
because he is much more astonishing than the statue is.
Start with this.
He almost missed the whole thing.
It's spring of 1776.
History is about to be made in Philadelphia.
He doesn't think it's going to be made.
He thinks it's going to be made in Virginia, in the state house.
And so he is staying at home.
And he didn't want to go.
His heart was in Virginia.
The writing of a brand new state constitution was happening.
right then. That was the prize to him. Philadelphia was the duty. And he lingered for a while. He lingered at Monticello.
He didn't leave Congress until early May, nearly missed his own immortality by sheer reluctance. And he had reasons to stay, nothing to do with politics.
And reasons that honestly, if you, if you're human, it almost breaks your heart.
heart when you stop and look at him. That March, his mother died. And his mother, Jane Randolph Jefferson,
she was 57 years old. And he was devastated, devastated, very close to his mother. You know,
Thomas Jefferson, this is a guy, fountain of language, this is a guy who could spin a sentence like silk.
He just, he would write volumes of words on things and all of them beautiful.
Do you know how he recorded the death of his own mother?
In his own little pocket account book, one line, one flat line.
My mother died this morning.
Time of day, her age, nothing else.
No grief on the page.
He was bottling it all up.
If you've ever lost somebody and you find yourself unable to write a single feeling down,
just the cold facts,
because the facts are all you can survive,
then you know who Thomas Jefferson was in this moment.
That flatness isn't coldness.
That flatness is a wound that is way too deep for any kind of words.
So that happens,
and then he gets sick.
He's prone to migraines,
and he's got a blinding migraine headache.
And it was triggered by the grief and the strain of what was happening,
not only with him,
but there was something else.
His wife, Martha,
the love, I mean the love of his life.
You want to read something really beautiful.
His wife eventually dies.
He goes over to Paris and he is, he falls in love of this girl.
And he still feels promised to his wife.
And so he doesn't know what to do.
He loves this woman, wants to go off with this woman, but he doesn't.
And he writes this letter to his heart, and then his heart writes a letter to his head.
and it's this argument from the heart to the head and the head to the heart.
It's just this amazing letter.
He's trying to figure out what do I do.
Well, his wife is still alive, and this is the love of his life.
Her health had always been fragile, broken again and again by pregnancy after pregnancy
after pregnancy, she keeps having miscarriages, and every time she's gravely ill.
She's now recovering from another miscarriage.
and the letters he was, I mean, he was desperate to receive any word from her health telling,
is she getting better or worse?
They weren't coming while he was in Philadelphia.
So throw out all the crap that you learned in the school book about, you know, the image of this calm genius at his desk, you know,
and replace it with the truth.
This guy was in deep angst and mourning.
And Congress comes in and hands history to him.
he wants to go home
he's afraid
his wife is going to die at any minute
miles away no word from home
homesick down to his bones
helpless to do anything about it
at all
that's who wrote the Declaration of Independence
so now the committee of five
meets and somebody
has to actually put pen
to paper and the obvious
choice is not Jefferson the obvious
choice is John Adams but John Adams
I mean he's a knight
He's the firebrand. He's the engine of all of it. He's been called the Atlas of Independence because he carried the whole cause on his back. But nobody liked it. Nobody liked him. By every right, the pen should have been his and the fame that went with it. The man who wrote the declaration would be remembered forever and John Adams knew it. And John Adams said, I can't write this. I can't write it.
Why? Because for as bullish as John Adams was, to his everlasting credit, he knew exactly who John Adams was.
46 years after the fact, Jefferson remembered it simply. He said the committee just asked him and, you know, go read both versions for yourself and judge.
But Adams does not play it down. Jefferson tried to hand him the pen.
Adams refused. Jefferson said, you should write it. Adam said, I'm not going to. Why? Then Adams gave him three reasons. And there's some of the most self-aware words any powerful man has ever spoken. Reason one, you're a Virginian. And Virginians ought to stand at the head of this business because Virginia is the largest independent colony. So we have to have Virginia. We need your face on it. Reason number two. And here's a guy looking in the mirror without flinching at all.
Quote, I'm obnoxious.
I'm suspected.
I'm unpopular.
And you are very much otherwise.
And reason three, you can write 10 times better than I can.
Now, think that's the most powerful voice in the room.
Hand the chance to be immortal.
And he knows it.
He knows it.
But he says, nobody likes me.
And I always see.
Ben Franklin in my head standing behind him because Thomas Jefferson was really polite.
And he had to have said, no, no, no, that's not true.
And I can see Ben Franklin standing behind Adams going, oh, yes, it is.
They don't like him.
Nobody likes him.
I don't even like him.
My name's on it.
Men are going to resist it just because it's me and they resist me.
Give it to the quiet kid who can write.
He gives away the most famous writing assignment in the history of the world because he loved the cause more than he loved his own glory.
When was the last time you saw any powerful man do that?
And then the quiet kid was quiet.
This is the detail that I ponder for a while.
Adam said that in all of his time that he set beside Jefferson in Congress,
he never heard him utter three sentences together.
Three sentences.
The man who would write the document that defined a civilization, Western civilization,
could not or would not speak up in a meeting because he was shy.
He was a homebody.
He hated the cut and the thrust of the debate, shouting and the performing.
He hated it.
Put him on his feet in a crowd and he's frozen.
Put a pen in his hand and alone in silence and he could reach up and pull thunder out from the sky.
There's a lesson in that that I don't think we should walk past.
Every quiet person who ever sat in a loud room feeling useless.
Every person who knew they had something true inside of them but couldn't win the shouting
match, Thomas Jefferson is your founding father.
He's your patron saint.
The revolution didn't need him to be loud.
It needed him to be right on paper when it counted.
Your gift might not be the one that wins the room.
It might be the one that wins the century.
So how does he do it?
Let me take a quick break and pick a story up there next.
60 seconds. First.
NMLS 1-8234, NMLS Consumer Access.org.
APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.
Call 800906 2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
See, this is what the founders were talking about.
That's government at work.
That disclaimer, that's the federal government saying,
hey, I got to protect the people.
And I think that's exactly what they were talking about with the Declaration of Independence.
They were like,
We got to have that MLS thing, you know, that number that everybody won't know what the hell they're even talking about, but it'll be safety.
Anyway, American financing, look, if you're paying high interest and you have an existing mortgage that you like,
the last thing you want to do is pay 20, 25 percent, you know, mortgage interest and you don't want to reset your home mortgage because you probably got a really good rate.
Look, here's what you do.
get out of the low, get out of the high interest rate credit card debt,
keep the low mortgage rate that you worked hard to get.
No upfront fees to see if you can qualify this, a special loan.
It's unlike anything else.
You can, the new loan will come and it is set so it's not fluctuating.

So Thomas Jefferson has to
sit down now all by himself
and put this together. Where does he
go? He rents out two
bedrooms, a bedroom and a parlor. It was on the second
floor of a new brick house. It was owned by
young bricklayer, a bricklayer,
Jacob Graff, center of town. It's at seventh and market. That's actually at the edge of the city at the time.
And he sits down and he pulls out this little portable writing box. It's a lap desk. He designed it himself. The guy was unbelievable. A little clever little folding thing of his own invention. He designed the very desk on which he would invent a nation. Now here's the question everybody gets wrong in both directions.
How much did he already have?
Did he pull it out of thin air or did he just copy other people?
The answer is neither.
And the truth is probably the most interesting thing about him.
That's the thing I love about history.
The truth is much better than everything that you've learned in school.
It cuts both ways, good and bad.
Just days before George Mason's Virginia Declaration of Rights had been printed
and it opened by declaring that all men are by nature equally free
and independent with inherent rights.
You read that, then you read Jefferson, and you can hear it humming underneath the lines.
He had his own earlier writing to draw from, a pamphlet that he printed in 1774 that he
had first really made Thomas Jefferson famous.
He had the whole inheritance of English liberty and John Locke deep in his bones, but he didn't
open a single book while he wrote.
He didn't look at any other paperwork.
it just was coming from him and explains the genius of him better than anything else.
He said he never intended it to be original.
He said, I just wanted the declaration to be an expression of the American mind.
He wasn't trying to invent a new idea.
He was really, I mean, it's a lot very much like Thomas Payne and common sense.
He was trying to use common sense.
He was trying to find the words for the thing three million people already felt
inside, but they hadn't said it yet.
So he reaches into the common air of his own time,
and he pulls down language that has been waiting inside of him for years,
some of these words, and waiting for somebody just to be clear enough and brave enough
and wounded enough to finally write it down.
And he did.
He did it all alone, grieving his mother, terrified for his wife, homesick, sick himself,
in 17 days.
The fate of a continent,
the weight of his own neck
pressing down on that little folding desk.
And the thing I want you to carry out,
he had no idea.
He really had no idea.
He thought he was writing a committee report.
Imagine how worthless you thought that was.
Your mother just died.
Your wife is dying.
You don't have any word.
and you're stuck in a room by yourself writing a committee report,
he thought this was routine paperwork that would be forgotten in a month.
He really didn't have any idea.
He never dreamt his name would outlive the empire that he was defining.
Go read his draft in his own hand.
That's what I'm going to talk about on the mall here in a little bit.
2 o'clock this afternoon.
I'm in Washington, D.C.,
and I'm going to speak on the main stage here in Washington, D.C. on the mall.
and I'm going to bring the copy of the original draft in Thomas Jefferson's own hand
and you look at the crossouts.
You look at what he printed.
There are five words that are printed, not incursive.
United States, America, there are three.
And then Christian and men.
He added two more.
Those two would be deletive.
leaded by two colonies.
But you look at the crossouts,
you look at what was changed and who changed it?
It's amazing.
You'll see crossed out and you'll see something changed.
And then it'll be in the hand of Benjamin Franklin
and it will say B Franklin on the edge.
And then in the margin a little farther down,
I'll say J. Adams and there'll be another change in John Adams's hand.
But very few changes.
But you can see it's not God writing scripture.
It's a frightened, brilliant, heartbroken young man doing the best he could and reaching by accident and grief and genius reaching all the way to forever.
The progressives have made the Declaration of Independence something that was meant to be just for their time.
But that's the genius of it.
it's not just for their time
it's for our time
that is the argument
that Wilson started Woodrow Wilson started
turn of last century
that the Declaration of Independence
is irrelevant
that's why Independence Day
is so important
you know that's not the founding of our country
that came later after the war
this is the 250th year
anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the most important document I think in all of human
political history. I'm going to tell you part three of the story, how it was past and what it was
like for Jefferson to hear it butchered tomorrow. Let me tell you about rapid radios. You can learn a lot
about a person, you know, by the first thing they say when something goes wrong. Some people panic.
Some people get angry. And then there's the person who just
calmly says, all right, all right, all right, here's the plan. Every group needs that person,
but even the calmest leader in the world can't help if they can't communicate with everybody.
So whether you are leading a work crew or coordinating a family vacation or hunting with friends or
whatever it is that you're doing, maybe you're managing a church event.
Good communication is what turns a bunch of individuals into a team.
And that's why I like Rapid Radio's.
They give you an instant way to stay connected so everybody knows what's going on.
Where they need to be, what the plan is, no chasing people down.
You just push the button and you talk.
I want you to go to Rapid Radio's right now. Rapidradios.com slash bundle.

Tonight, Glenn sets the record straight about our immigration story
and a revolutionary media experience.
Watch it only at Torch250.com.
I want to, I'm going to give you some hope here.
I want to talk to you about,
tonight I've got my special on immigration.
And it's the truth on immigration.
and, you know,
birthright citizenship yesterday.
This is a poison pill for America.
And it's really, really dangerous.
And we don't survive unless somebody fixes this.
And you know that.
You know we are faced.
I mean, we had socialist win again.
Deep, deep socialist.
These are not like, hey, I think we should be more like Sweden's socialist.
These are deep socialists.
I'll get into that next hour.
They won last night.
in Colorado. That's in the center of the country, gang. But to give you hope, I want to take you back to, oh, I can't believe I'm saying this.
And I hate these things. I want to take you to an opera, which I absolutely hate opera. I love this one song. Can you play a little clip of this? I love this one song, mainly because it's in every mob movie.
You know this song, right? You don't know what it says. You don't know what it means. You're just like, oh, it's the fat clown.
right, crying, or is that a different opera?
I'm not really sure.
Okay.
So listening to this song, this song matters.
Okay, this is from Turindote.
It's Puccini's opera.
Never seen it.
But apparently, you know, if you could,
if they would put subtitles on,
maybe a few of us would go.
But anyway, a prince named Caliph falls in love
with the princess Turindote.
And she has sealed herself behind,
fear and power and impossibly cruel conditions.
If somebody wants to seek her hand for marriage,
he has to answer three riddles.
And failure means death.
Well, Caliph succeeds.
Yet victory doesn't end the struggle.
Instead, he offers her a challenge of his own.
If she can discover his name before dawn,
she can have him executed.
I don't know.
Is she a lesbian?
I don't know what the problem is.
with getting married in this thing.
I didn't look that deeply.
But the entire city is drawn into this search of who this guy is.
And fear spreads through the streets.
Nobody is allowed to rest.
No one's allowed to sleep.
Find out who this guy is.
That's the setting of this song called Nessendorma.
None shall sleep.
That's none shall sleep.
That's the name of that song.
Now, standing in the middle of that tense and fearful night,
Caliph sings alone.
everyone around him is consumed by uncertainty,
but he is absolutely convinced that Dawn will bring
not his death, but a different outcome.
And the aria builds to, you know,
one of the most famous climaxes in all of music,
where he says,
Vincero, Vinciaro, what does that mean?
What does Vinciaro mean?
It means, I will win.
the power of that song, the reason why it speaks to you, even though you don't know the story
and you don't know what it says, it speaks to you, because the song is not found in triumph
already achieved. It comes from the confidence maintained before the outcome is known.
It's somebody, it's the sound of somebody standing in the darkness, surrounded by absolute
doubt by everybody, holding fast to the belief that mourning is,
coming and morning is bringing a different outcome than everybody else thinks.
That's why this aria has endured far beyond the opera itself.
It speaks to something larger than romance.
It's a conviction that fear doesn't have the final word.
Now, let me give you a little, the reason why I know this story?
I looked it up because I was curious, why does Donald Trump always end all of his rallies
with that song?
Because I didn't know this story.
He ends these rallies with that song.
It's a voice carrying a certainty that nobody else can see yet.
Vincero.
I will win.
Now, for a lot of politicians, that would be the whole message.
But I think for Donald Trump, it operates on two different levels at once.
The first, clearly obvious.
It's personal.
Trump has spent his entire public life cultivating the image of a man who walks into
impossible situations believing that he can prevail. Business setbacks, political opposition,
criminal investigations, impeachments, election battles, relentless criticism, the Iran thing, all of it.
And yet the central theme remains consistent. This fight's not over. You have no idea. The verdict is
not final. The story is still being written.
tomorrow brings a surprise.
Now, that confidence, whether admired or criticized, is inseparable from Donald Trump.
When the tenor reaches the summit and declares victory,
supporters hear an echo of the quality they associate with Trump more than any other.
They don't know it because they don't know the story.
It's the refusal to concede psychologically before things.
are finished. But like I said, there's another layer, and I think it's a larger one. The song arrives
at the end of his rallies because the rallies themselves are not about one man. They're about
a story. And it's the story his audience, the you that I believe, about our country. It's a feeling
that something precious is truly being lost here. Being lost.
A belief our institutions have become distant to us to the people.
A sense that the cultural confidence has been weakened.
A conviction that decline is not natural nor inevitable.
The crowd doesn't say, I will win.
We hear a nation saying it.
We hear our families saying it.
Communities saying it.
We're not done.
People who feel dismissed and ignored and people.
pushed aside. I'm not done. This song gives voice to a hope that history is not finished with us.
The future remains open. Renewal is possible that dawn will follow even the darkest of nights.
That's why this choice is so fascinating. Because the story of Turandot is not about force.
it's not it's endurance it's about caring conviction through uncertainty it's about holding onto a belief
while surrounded by doubt while everyone else is saying look at what they've done look at what
they've done in the supreme court yesterday we're done we're not going to make it yes we are yes we are
you don't know how this story ends yet an entire city spending a night searching for
frantically for an answer. That was us yesterday. What's the answer? What's the answer? And somewhere,
there are many of us holding on to a certainty. I don't know. I don't know how it works out,
but I know it works out. And that is the contrast that matters. We are not a political movement
that draw our energy from anger. We don't. Some draw it from fear. We can't. Others draw it from resentment.
we mustn't. What we must express is resolve. Persistence. The determination to continue standing
when everyone is saying collapse. The confidence that a frozen situation is going to thaw.
What appears settled is going to change. What appears lost is going to return. And the music swells
and the crowd's cheer.
And that final note hangs in the air.
And for a brief moment,
the distinction between
the man and the movement
becomes blurred.
The victory being sung
belongs to both
personal and political victory.
Cultural victory.
A spiritual victory.
Not a promise that's
Success is guaranteed, not a claim that the battle is going to be won, but a declaration.
Surrender is unnecessary.
Despair is premature.
The future hasn't rendered its verdict yet.
And so it closes with the message that reaches beyond the campaign and the policy in the elections.
The message carried by a voice pushing through the darkness toward the morning.
Hold on.
Night's not forever.
The story's not over.
Vin Chero.
we will win
we are sitting at a red light
the driver behind you
lays on the horn
you don't think much of it light turns green
you go a few blocks later
he comes flying around you slams on his brakes
blocks the road before you even
have time to process what's
happening he's out of his car he's stomping towards
you on the driver's side he's on the
at the door yelling pounding on the window
you're going to roll the window down
yeah I'm going to only a little
little just to introduce my new friend to the burn a launcher that's what i'm going to do i will win it gives
you a powerful less lethal operation uh or option for defending yourself it fires kinetic and chemical
irritant projectiles it can stop a threat from as far away as 60 feet giving you the opportunity to
create distance and to get to safety it's legal in all 50 states requires no background check no
permit for purchase. It was designed for exactly this kind of moment when walking away isn't
possible, but lethal force is not the right answer. That's the capability I think every
responsible American should have on hand. Visit berna.com. Find the right launcher for your family.

Immigration is not a suicide pact.
Watch the brand new documentary,
The Golden Door from Ellis Island to the White House,
tonight on Torch.
Oh, is it really not a suicide pact?
Because I think it is.
I think it is.
I mean, let's just let everybody in.
What's the problem?
They don't have to think like we do.
Sure, they want to kill us.
What's the problem with that?
What has happened to us?
Does anybody remember 9-11?
Has anybody really, has anybody thought about what China is doing?
let's see i can drop in a lady from china she can have a baby then she can take that baby bring it over
to the former i mean over to the ccc and they can train it to hate america and then that child can
come over here with a passport vote do whatever and there are hundreds of thousands of them
what is wrong with you was it alito that was talking about this yesterday
That was so strong.
Somebody yesterday said, this is unreasonable.
It's unreasonable.
And I have to tell you, I think, I mean, one of the things it has to be done is we have to just start arresting all of these people.
You're coming over here.
I think we should have break checks, you know.
Hey, look, we do it with our cattle.
I do it on the ranch.
I hate to sound like theater Roosevelt, but we do it with our cattle with a pregnancy check.
Why can't we do it with our immigrants?
Sorry, this kind of quoting Theodore Roosevelt.
I mean, you cannot have this happen.
It is national suicide.
Let me show you this.
This is from the Golden Door.
This is our special tonight at 8 o'clock.
It actually starts around 7.30 with going live with Jason.
Then I sit down and we start the special at 8.
And then we'll have a question and answer with the insider.
If you're Torchy, you'll know right where.
to get it, its usual place on your app or whatever.
If you haven't joined the torch,
please join the torch.
Go to torch250.com,
the golden door from Ellis Island to the White House.
Let me show you one of the things we're covering tonight.
Here's cut six.
They don't come here because America is just like any other place.
They come here because we are different.
We stand for eternal truths, individual liberty,
equal justice under the law.
The right to rise as far as your talent and your character will take you.
That's the magnet.
That's the golden door.
She's holding the lamp.
And in the other hand, she's holding the law.
But we're now experiencing some sort of massive sciop, I think.
It's a deliberate campaign to change what immigration means to America.
and to the people who want to come here and become us.
Decades of globalization and political maneuverings by opportunistic politicians
and a slow, steady burn of progressive manipulation, bit by bit,
quietly rewrote the American story.
And the message changed from, come here.
Be who you were born to be. Be an American.
adopt our ideology, and find within you greatness.
Contribute to the last great outpost of liberty in a very dark world.
To now, I don't know, show up, be a body, be a statistic, integration, whatever, assimilation, meh.
It's kind of old-fashioned.
We don't need you to believe what we believe anymore.
What you believe is just fine.
That's cultural suicide, and that's how it was packaged.
sold to us dressed up as kindness.
I go into the kindness thing with some celebrity
thoughts where they're actually
sitting down in think tanks and they're talking about
what it means, what Emma Lazarus Paul means, give us your tired of your
that is we're a hospital. We are not a hospital.
We're not a hospital.
That's such an insane thought.
It's not who we are.
You want to learn the truth?
You want to know?
You want to be able to defend it?
You want to know where we need to point to as a nation on immigration?
Make sure that you're watching tonight, the Golden Door.
I invite you to join us on our mission to save the Republic.
Join us now.

And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. Turning 65 feels like you've been dropped
into a constant stream of mailers and calls and ads telling you something different about
Medicare and most of it just makes things more confusing. But because this is not a small decision,
it's your health care. You need to know you can see the right doctors. You need to get the care

Dial pound 250, say the keyword chapter.
It's pound 250 keyword chapter.
Oh, yeah.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
Jason, can you tell me we're in Washington, D.C.
You've been saying all show that I'm going to be some play.
I'm going to be on stage at 2 o'clock today,
but also the Mercury One little mini museum,
little booth that we're going to be, you know,
from time to time this weekend,
is left of the merry-go,
round. And I said, I'm not left of anything, but the merry go round, sure, it's the right of the merry
go round. I think it was your rantings that actually changed it last minute. So they are, I think they
did. Yeah, they moved in. Because of that. Yeah. We're the right of the merry go around. That's where we are.
If you are not, if you haven't heard, go back and listen to today's show, the podcast.
I tell you the story of what's really going on here in Washington, D.C. It is phenomenal. I've never
seen anything like it. And you will never see anything like it again.
This dwarfs every independent celebration the country has ever had.
They're setting several world records this weekend.
The one I can't wait for is Saturday, the Firework Show.
The Macy's Firework Show is about 800.
And this is not exactly right because it's like the pyrotechnic devices.
Yeah, whatever.
So let's just say the shells instead.
the largest fireworks show ever in America is about 80,000 shells.
This one is 850,000 shells.
This is 10 times bigger than anything that has ever happened in America.
It's the largest ever in the world.
Some of these fireworks are a quarter of a mile wide.
It's going to be incredible.
If you're anywhere in the Washington, D.C. area, come, and you won't believe how safe and how clean it is.
I mean, the marble's actually white. Who knew? Who knew? And the lawns have been mowed again. Who knew it could be done?
It's incredible. All right. Bad night for the Republic yesterday in Colorado, because the Democratic Socialists have won again. What does this mean?
I'm going to explain here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
You can be a customer of a company for 20 years and have absolutely no idea what they're doing with the profits you help them make.
You just pay the bill every month.
They provide a good service, the end of the relationship, right?
Until the day you find out, wait a minute, wait a minute.
You've been using some of these profits to prop up, plan parenthood?
I don't want to dime up my money going to that.
That's an uncomfortable feeling.
The good news is you don't have to just shrug your money.
your shoulders and accept it. Now, they have all of the networks, the big three, they've built the
whole system. So you've got to have access to those networks, but you don't have to give them all
of your money, okay? Patriot Mobile, they're America's only Christian, conservative, wireless
provider, and they have donated millions of dollars to organizations that defend faith, family,
free speech, the Second Amendment, life, and our first responders and veterans. So you'll get access
to all three major nation.
wide networks and in a few minutes you can be doing doing business with a company that is fighting
for the things you believe in, not against them. Go to Patriotmobile.com slash back or call

972 Patriot. Promocode is Beck. Make the switch today. All right. So Milot Kyros
won yesterday and she won in the Democratic primary. Now, I don't know. I don't know.
know how this is going to turn out. But I know that I saw her speech. She is a Democratic socialist.
Yesterday, in fact, let me see if we have this audio. Yesterday we had Mom Donnie. Yeah,
cut two. Listen to this. Listen to this. This is Mom Donnie. And we raise taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers,
instead of taking more from those with the least. Throughout this process, I have been reminded
of the words of the Austrian economist Friedrich Hayek. If socialists understood economics,
they wouldn't be socialists.
These past months have shown us anything.
It is that socialists not only understand economics,
just as well as the capitalist who came before,
but that we can solve their years of mismanagement
through an embrace of our principles.
They've been in office for what?
Less than a year?
We've proven it.
Every single socialist experiment fails.
Fails.
So Milot wins yesterday in Colorado,
and she says,
we're taking our system back and we're taking our country back.
What do you mean you're taking your country back?
Because that's what everybody was saying about the Tea Partiers.
What do they mean by we're taking our country back?
What does that mean?
Well, I know what it means.
It means we're returning to the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
When you're talking about getting rid of capitalism, you're not taking it back.
So the question is, is that,
this is this just the edges of the party or is this going to be is this a death knell for the next
election because that's what they always say about the republic when you have somebody who's a
constitutional he's an extremist he's crazy he hates the government he's he's totally on the
edge he's a danger these guys are not getting that rap from the press of course but have they
gone too far for the average Democrat? I don't know. I don't know. One of the biggest
mistakes Republicans could make right now is believing we've seen this movie before. We haven't
seen this. People are like, this is a Democratic Tea Party. No, it's not. It's really not.
The Tea Party. I was part of that. You may have been part of that. What was it? We were asking
America not to become something new. We were asking America to do something.
traditional to become something old again.
Okay? Remember what those rallies look like?
The pocket constitution guys, my son turned into one yesterday on the airplane.
He had a pocket constitution. I'm like, I'm not going to tell you, but in my day,
that made you really super nerdy.
But pocket constitution, the don't tread on me flags, the people quoting the Declaration
of Independence dressed up as Ben Franklin and George Washington, I mean,
wow, that's radical.
They were not demanding that Washington sees industries or redistribute wealth.
They were not saying, eat the rich.
They were arguing that Washington had forgotten its own limits.
Whether you agreed with them or not, their argument was restorative.
You could say, I don't want to go back there, but they wanted less government, lower debt, a return to constitutional principles.
They were like, let's do it the old way.
They're extremists.
Now those same voices are calling democratic socialism the future.
Think of that.
One movement wanted to get the government to shrink.
The other believes the government should regulate more, spend more, own more,
forgive more, guarantee more, direct more of the economy.
These are not mirror image.
They are opposites.
and here's something else that nobody seems to notice.
Every successful socialist movement in history claim to represent the workers.
This is so important.
Where are the workers today?
Where are they?
Today's movement represents the graduates.
Look where all the energy comes from.
The elite universities, the prestigious media, the nonprofits, the nonprofits, the
government bureaucracy, the professional advocates, the activists, the commanding height of culture,
Karl Marx predicted the revolution would come from the factory floor.
Instead, it seems to be coming from the faculty lounge.
So now here's the question.
And we don't know the answer to this.
We'll find out in November, will the average Democrat buy it?
Maybe, maybe not.
I don't know.
I was looking at some polling last night from Gallup found something fascinating.
Americans still view capitalism more favorably than socialism, 54% to 39%.
But that's crazy.
Socialism.
People are actually talking about communism now.
But here's what's more interesting.
Take capitalism out of it, the free market.
Do you support small businesses and the free enterprise?
95% have a positive view of small business with the free market.
market. 81% say free enterprise is good. 81% it's language. The anger here is not directed
to the local hardware store. It's directed at concentrated corporate power and that matters.
The average Democrat is not sitting around dreaming about nationalizing industries. They're
trying to buy groceries. They're trying to make rent. They're trying to pay for child
care. They don't want a revolution. They want relief. They want somebody actually standing up for them,
who's listening to them. That is an incredibly interesting split inside of the Democratic Party.
The activist class is talking about restructuring everything. The average voter is like,
I just want my eggs to come down in price. These are two entirely different conversations.
and even the Democrats themselves know it.
They know it.
Recent polling found large majorities of Democratic voters wanting new leadership.
They want their party focused on kitchen table economics, not cultural battles.
And that's where it gets even more interesting.
Socialism has always promised equality.
But eventually every socialist movement runs right into the same wall.
What is that wall?
This is why the Common Core was so important.
The wall is math. It's math. Somebody has to build. Somebody has to invent. Somebody has to risk
failure. Somebody has to create wealth before somebody can take it away from them. The bill always
comes due. So I don't know if the Democrats have jumped the shark or not or they're just way
ahead of the curve. I don't know. That's the right question. Maybe a better question.
has the activist class become so convinced of its own moral certainty
that it no longer knows how ordinary people actually live?
I was walking around Washington, D.C. last night,
and they have the president in a cage now.
I mean, you can't get within two blocks of the White House.
Now, it's only for this weekend, I found out.
But I'm looking at what we're turning into,
our political class with the violence and everything.
you're not going to get near this stuff.
I remember you could walk in.
I could just walk in to the Capitol building.
You just walk in.
You're not doing that now.
We have a bell in our history vault.
We have a bell that used to sit at the front door of the White House
where you could walk in and hit this bell.
This is Lincoln's time.
Hit that bell and say, I want to see the president.
And somebody would come down and say,
okay, yeah, sit down here and he'll see you in a minute.
We have the bell.
the service bell, now serving number 23.
You can't get within two blocks of the White House.
These guys are going to become more and more elite.
But history offers this warning, and it's this.
Political parties usually don't collapse because the other side defeats them.
They collapse because their leaders begin speaking a language that their own voters no longer recognize.
why have you fallen away from the Republican Party?
Because they're speaking a language that you're like,
that's not what I'm saying.
That's not what any of my friends are saying.
My friends aren't for any of that stuff.
What are you talking about?
That's what's happening to the Democrats.
The Democrats, I think, I could be wrong,
but I think they have gone so far.
They are speaking like,
they're giving this message that sounds like a graduate seminar.
And all you're saying is, can somebody help me with the price of eggs?
You got a real problem if that's who you are.
And that's the real test.
Not whether socialism excites activists on social media.
Of course it does.
The real thing is, does a dad who's working overtime or a mom balancing two jobs
believe another layer of government control is actually going to make tomorrow better than today?
and what they believe about small business and the free market, that's a hard sell.
But the answer to that is going to determine not just the future of, you know, the Democratic Party,
but whether America remains a country that rewards those who build or one that increasingly rewards those who promise to divide what others have already built.
And I want to get into that at the bottom of the hour.
I want to take a quick break here.
And I want to tell you, you know,
You don't know.
Everybody says, we got to be more like Europe.
Really, do we?
That's working out.
We got to be more like Sweden.
You have no idea what Sweden has done since the 1990s, do you?
They have no idea what Sweden has done.
Let me set the record straight on Swedish and Norwegian socialism,
because it's not what you think it is.
Before I get into the Swedish socialism,
I want to, when they say we're taking our country back,
They're not taking their country back.
They are saying at the same time they want to fundamentally transform.
This is what Obama used to say, five days away from the fundamental transformation of America,
and they have transformed us.
That is, let me give you this.
Let me give you this.
Picture going into a museum.
And I want you to, picture you're in the Louvre.
And there's a guy standing there, two guys standing there.
One has traveled a thousand miles, maybe the other side of the earth, to come see his favorite painting.
painting he adores. He loves the Mona Lisa. And he's standing there for a long time. And he's
studying every brush stroke, every shadow, every tiny little detail that survived more than 500 years.
And he's looking at the curator. It's like, I just love this. And the curator smiles like,
I know, I know. It's great, isn't it? But says the guy, I love this, but I think it could be better.
I mean, the smile should be bigger. I'm thinking about buying it. How much?
somebody from Texas. How much for that painting up there on that wall? Because I can change it. I can make it better. You know,
the background kind of feels a little dated. Just foot a modern skyline behind her. Maybe lose the dark clothing.
It's a little out of date. Let's give her something more current that she's wearing and make her smile because that smile sucks.
But I love this painting. By the time he's finished, the curator is looking at him like, dude, are you kidding me?
And the man looks at him and it's like, what's wrong? I told you, I love that painting. No, no.
No, you didn't love that painting.
You loved your idea of what that painting should be.
If you love the painting, your first instinct would not be to erase everything that makes it what it is.
The first thing you wanted to change was her smile.
There's a difference between restoring something and replacing it.
And everybody understands that.
You know, an old church begins to crumble.
if you love the church, you repair the stone.
You don't bulldoze it and build a casino in its place.
Your grandfather's watch stops running.
You fix the gears.
You don't melt it down and make earrings out of it.
Can you imagine saying to your wife, honey, I love you.
Try this.
Honey, I love you so much.
I love everything about you.
If I could just fundamentally transform,
everything about you.
I mean, what would your night be like?
You don't love her, and she'd know it.
You love the person you wish she would become.
Love begins with accepting the identity of the thing you claim to love.
You help it grow.
You help it heal.
You call it back when it loses its way.
That's what the Tea Party was trying to do.
You've lost your way.
We love you.
We know who you are.
We know what you are.
not we don't want to transform you we want to restore you you don't erase the character and then
congratulate yourself for saving it obviously i'm not talking about a painting i'm talking about
america we keep hearing politicians on the left fundamentally transforming the united states
we're calling our country back you're not you're fundamentally transforming it not to improve
not to restore not to renew but to transform those are very different
things, restore and renew, and transform.
America has an identity. It has a beginning. It has first principles. It has a reason for
existing. And the reason's not hidden. It's right there. Our founding fathers, put it in the
Declaration of Independence. That's our country. Just be honest, you want to transform it. You want to get
rid of that mission statement and replace it with something else. We know who you are. Does America
know who America is? That's the question we're going to find out, I think, in this next election.
More in a minute. We'll talk to you about relief factor. There are certain things that you don't
really appreciate until the day they become hard, climbing a flight of stairs, opening up a jar,
getting off the floor after playing with your kids, you know, carrying groceries in from the car.
most of your life you don't even think about those things but your body after a lifetime of work
somebody has to pay that bill you know one day something starts hurting you realize all those
everyday moments were not little they were freedoms when tanya first suggested i started
start taking a relief factor my hands were hurting so much things were becoming impossible i
didn't think i would ever be able to write my hand anymore i didn't think i could paint
I didn't think this would help.
I really didn't.
And she's like,
I'm not going to listen to you one anymore unless you try everything.
So I did.
Oh,
that's exactly how she sounds, by the way.
So I started taking Relief Factor,
and it changed, and she was right.
Please try it.
Three-week quick start.
Get it for 1776,
that patriotic price right now, 1776.
Pursue your happiness pain-free.

Tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern, the Golden Door premieres on Torch, and Glenn takes your questions
live as soon as it ends. Join the mission to reclaim our real story at Torch-250.com.
I got to give you this Scandinavian socialist stuff because I've, my staff and I have been
doing research on this now for the last month, about week. And I don't think, you know,
these, they're trying to still sell some of it. Some of it they're trying to still sell
as, you know, we've got to be more like Sweden.
That's not what they mean anymore.
And if you know the truth about Sweden and the Norwegian countries, they gave up on socialism.
Now, they have big state stuff, but they are more free market than we are now.
The changes that they began to make in the 90s, it's astounding.
And I'm going to give you that tomorrow because I got to come back to this woman that just won in,
Colorado. Can we play the audio here
of what she said in Colorado about 9-11?
Yes. Here she is.
Do you believe that the 9-11 terrorist attacks on America
were the inevitable consequence of American foreign policy?
Inevitable in the sense that we
destabilized a lot of the Middle East
that forced people to believe that another act of
violence was the only response.
And again, just like I said before, our responsibility is to getting rid of those conditions
that lead to violence.
Stop.
Do you totally disagree with that answer?
Yes.
Why?
I mean, it's the typical, you know, blame the rape victim.
You know, you get attacked, you know, from whatever we did.
And the reason why their justification for 9-11 is when we had to land in Saudi Arabia or do
operations from Saudi Arabia.
That was their main beef.
They were like, if you do this, we will attack you.
And we were actually liberating a Muslim country during that time from Saddam Hussein.
I don't agree with blaming the victim for anything when it comes to anything like this.
I don't, and I said totally disagree.
Because I disagree with you on that.
We did nothing that deserves that.
okay however i think the question should be asked because this is this is where we always go wrong
you know we we teach our kids about the red white and blue and it's great and
america is great it's better than any other country name the country that hasn't made these
kinds of mistakes okay we do nothing to deserve that kind of stuff however did we make
mistakes do we did we are we the nation that we claim to be see i
because I think the people are, the American people are those people that we think of as red, white, and blue and just want to do the right thing and help each other and help other countries, et cetera.
That's what's really in our heart.
But that's not what our government's been doing.
Our State Department had been so out of control until Marco Rubio, I mean, for a hundred years, we've been saying, we don't tolerate, we don't tolerate torture.
pick him up in the CIA
ghost plane and take them over to Egypt
and we'll torture him there.
I mean,
how do you not hate a country like that?
Again, not to say we deserve that.
I'm just saying we're not living up to our values.
The best example of,
that's what the Statue of Liberty really is all about.
The Statue of Liberty was given to us,
and we get into this in the special tonight a little bit.
The Statue of Liberty was not a couple of,
gift. France doesn't. France doesn't give gifts like that. Who gives gifts like that? You sure you don't
have, are you sure they don't have one like it? I mean, at least they knew that. You know what I mean?
But when you give something that big, what if we didn't like it? It's not like you can take it out
when the French people come. French are coming quick, put the statue back up. Who gives something
like that? What an arrogant thing to give. Okay. Anyway, they didn't care about us. Really, honestly.
what they were trying to do was trying to teach the socialists and the Marxists that were in the communes.
All of this stuff was heating up in Europe.
It's exactly like it is now.
And some people got together and said, that's not the answer.
The answer is America.
Because at that time, we were not beating our chest.
We were not saying, look at us.
We're going to bring it over to you now and you're going to do it our way.
look at that's what that's why they gave us the Statue of Liberty because they were saying to their own people help us raise money to celebrate their 100th anniversary but they were doing it so they could preach what was happening in America the same thing Germans were doing it with the George Washington Crossing the Delaware painting that's not an American painting it wasn't even painted for Americans it was painted for the Germans who were dealing with Marxist and saying look
They've got a farmer.
They've got a mountain man.
They even have a woman and a black and an African and an Indian American in the boat with a president and a future president.
They're all in the boat together.
That's what that painting was for.
And it was meant for Germans, not Americans.
The best example of this is just live it.
And people will eventually notice.
How do I know that?
Go to Instagram.
look at what people who are coming over for soccer are saying about us.
They love us.
They don't love our policies.
They don't love.
That's not what they're talking about.
They're talking about the people and the way we live compared to them.
If you're beating your chest, nobody wants to hear it.
But if you're just living it, you know, that's how, that's how, that's why I want, that's how I start conversations with.
Christians. When I hear a Christian talk all the Christian crap and they're like, and you know,
and you know who's not as good as I am, I have no, I don't want to talk to you. I just don't want to
talk to you. You know why my church is superior. No, I don't and I'm really not going to ask any more
questions. But I will talk to anyone who their life is together and they're happy and they're
Christ-like, then I want to know about their church.
I want to know about them.
Not because they're preaching to me, because they're living it.
That's the secret here.
These guys talk a good game about America, but they're not living it.
And it is dangerous.
Did you hear what Jayapal said?
Do we happen to have this?
Jayapal has come out, said yesterday, that we have to let more
communists in. The Democrats have to start to accept
communists. Not socialist. Communists. Remember, it was, we're not
socialist. Now, we're not communist, but we should allow them in. Soon you're
going to be just telling you, yeah, we're all communist. We're Islamist
communists. That's what's happening to us. And we are letting these people,
Ricky, tell me how this woman that won in, um,
in Colorado yesterday. Tell me how she got into the country.
Her family immigrated through a diversity visa lottery.
They came from Ethiopia, which Ethiopia in the 90s, don't blame them for coming here.
But yeah, we just randomly said, hey, apply.
And then if you're a country that we don't have enough immigrants here, come on in.
And so he did.
And they just...
Can I ask you?
What?
I wouldn't say that about the English.
I mean, I'm supposed to be a racist, so I'm supposed to like people like me.
I wouldn't say that about the...
You know, we don't have enough of...
We don't have enough English.
I don't give a flying crap.
You know we don't have enough of people from other countries that love our country.
Amen.
That's what we don't have.
I don't care what country you are, what color you are, what creed you are.
I don't care.
The diversity only makes you strong when the diverse come together and are unified around one organizing principle.
That's what matters.
if you want to be able to teach this,
if you want to be able to see this in action,
watch tonight,
Torch 250.
It was told by Ricky, the beam counter.
She's like, we need 800 subscribers.
We got to have them by the end of the show
or we're all going to die.
It's like, you know what this cost us?
And I'm like, no, not really.
And I don't really want to know.
It costs us a lot.
We got to have 800 subscribers before the end of the show tonight.
please please cancel tomorrow just get ricky off my back please we're doing charity work over here to save
this country please get her off my back oh my gosh it's relentless support us and watch this it's so
important it is such an important special really really good it did cost us a lot of money because
it's really good um and it it will take you and show you the real meaning um and i start out right
from the beginning. No. No more immigration. None. Until we can get it right. Until we can
understand, it's not about diversity. It's not about diversity. You know what? If everybody who came in
in the next hundred years were all black, but they loved the country, the founding, the story,
they were hardworking entrepreneurs, they got it. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't
You can be as diverse as you want as long as we unify on the principles of this country.
And you'll really understand that.
You will see what this is about, why we have immigration and why what we're doing is a suicide pack.
Watch it with your family.
It's a great Fourth of July special, even though it's not about independence.

One of the hardest things about being an entrepreneur and owning a business is you,
you're never off.
You're never off.
You can't be sitting at your kid's ball game,
out to dinner with your spouse,
finally taking that weekend off.
Your phone rings, you've got to take it.
I need an answer right now.
Okay.
You got enough going on in your life.
The last thing you need to worry about is your freaking insurance.
I mean, unless you're an insurance agency,
well, then maybe you care about insurance.
None of us care about insurance.
We just want it to work.
Okay?
That's it.
Am I covered?
The answer should be yes.

Oh, crap.
Turns out.
When did that get there?
Common sense ain't all that common.
But around here, it's still standard equipment.
Glenn Beck returns in a minute.
All right.
So something happened yesterday because,
the Supreme Court said
transgender sports, no.
You're a biological male, you play male sports.
Now NBC reports this, and I want you to hear
what NBC News, NBC News did yesterday.
Listen, cut one.
Just a quick note here.
The terms that we're using here during our reporting,
biological male, biological female,
The High Court put those terms in quotations in their decision and their dissent.
But just so you know, we're using those terms from the decision itself, biological male, biological female.
God.
Okay.
God, give me strength.
To be the man you would like me to be, not the man I really, really, really, really want to be right now.
Let me set this clip up a different way, the way I probably should have.
warning to the audience
a trigger warning
for those of you who are triggered by trigger warnings
I'm going to play a trigger warning
from NBC News and it's going to trigger you
because when are we going to stop with this stuff?
Here's what NBC said yesterday
and then you play it
because I can't I mean
oh when are we going to be done with this
that end and I know I say it all the time
but I can't take the land recognition
you stole the land, then give it back to them.
Give it back.
Obama, we want to recognize we're on stolen land.
Well, you owned it.
Why didn't you give it back to them?
They would have loved to have that land.
You have no intention of giving it back.
So stop saying it.
It only makes it, if you stole it from me, I'm really pissed off that you keep saying,
by the way, I just bought up all this land, built a monument to me.
And I want to recognize I stole it from those people.
over there. Oh my gosh. Oh, can these people ever make sense? All I want is just a little bit of sanity.
And one of the things that drives me crazy, because I'm a car guy, Jason's a car guy. One of the things that drives me
crazy is you open up a hood of a car and you can't do anything anymore. You can't touch the engine.
You're like, come on, guys. I mean, I understand you put the computer
you know, in a special locked box with Al Gore and all the money from Social Security.
I get that.
But I can't touch anything on the engine.
No, I got to go to you, the experts.
What happened yesterday, Jason?
The president signed an executive order.
It's a right to repair order so that they're at least making it to where they don't enforce some of these insane laws.
They were actually going after people, arresting people in some cases.
You've got to be kidding.
You've got to be kidding me.
You've got to be kidding me.
I own the car.
Manufacturers were like, especially it's mostly done with them through emission systems.
So they did not, and manufacturers were making their own like ECM, you know, modification so that you could not actually go in and mess around with these things.
No, I've hacked them.
Oh my.
Well, some people, there were YouTubers.
They were actually, like, there were EPA, like, enforcement officers of such a thing.
Oh, my God.
We're showing up to do that.
That's nuts.
All right.
$250.
