Starting point is 00:00:00 Let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor of the Sapphire. It's Moxie. There is a certain kind of confidence that comes from knowing that your home is guarded by a team that thinks like the enemy. And by enemy, I mean bugs that get into your house.

We've got a lot to talk about. But I want to tell you why I'm in Fort Wayne, Indiana here in just a second. We're going to start there. Just hang on First, let me tell you about Jace Medical.
Starting point is 00:03:08 There are two kinds of people in the world, those who plan ahead and those who wish they had. And you see it every time something unexpected hits. The shelves will go empty. The pharmacies close early. And suddenly everybody's scrambling to find the medication that they already should have had at home. But that's the difference between panic and preparation. And it's exactly why Jace Medical and Jace exists. Because they know you need a supply of antibiotics prescribed by licensed doctors delivered straight to your,
Starting point is 00:03:36 door where you don't have to worry if the system ever falters. You have all the medications that you need. And it's not just about antibiotics. It's about the peace of mind knowing that if you're traveling, if you're cut off, or if the world just doesn't, you know, if the world does what the world sometimes does, you're still covered and you're still in control. I have two daughters that have, one has cerebral palsy. Both of them have seizures and they need their seizure medication.
Starting point is 00:04:01 We're on vacation. They run out of seizure medication, whatever. it's in the middle of the night. I need to make sure that we have it. We have it because of Jace. If one of my kids or I get sick and we're traveling around, I don't have to go to a doctor in some foreign country or someplace where I'm scrambling to find a doctor or God forbid have to go to a hospital just to get some antibiotics to make a fever break. Jace, have the Jace case with you, travel with it and make sure that your family is safe for whatever might happen. Jace.

Starting point is 00:04:36 Jace.com promo code is back. I am sitting in a brand-new studio, state-of-the-art at WOW-WO in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Wo-W-W is this amazing radio station, and I am here to celebrate their 100th anniversary as they are launching into their second season. century of broadcast and grabbing on to the future. I'm here because when we launched, whoa, whoa, I think was one of the first five stations. I know we launched with 20 stations. And I think they were, they were like a number four, number five that signed on. They were with us on the very first day that we launched the Glenn Beck program. But beyond that,
Starting point is 00:05:28 W.O.O.O. in Fort Wayne, Indiana was one of the very first stations in America, in the world. And what it is meant, what it is done, and what it's about to do is remarkable. Back in 1925, there was no such thing as a network. CBS had not even started to put together a network, the Columbia Broadcasting System. Radio was brand new. The air was silent. And Wo Woe launched. And when that voice spoke, people listened because they knew it was speaking to them.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Wo Woe was never a spot on the dial. Our local radio stations are, I don't know if we really appreciate our local radio stations. Everything has changed. And yet, something still remains. true and it's that truth that finds its way through the static on the air it's that truth of a a friend in the dark hours of a war or the comfort during a storm when everything else is down a laugh on a long morning commute in fort way in indiana for a hundred years now when blizzard shut down the roads when the headlines when the headlines scarred us or when hope felt small there was
Starting point is 00:07:03 always that voice humming through the night, a reminder that we're not alone. And it's local radio. This is a station that helped put Fort Wayne on the map. It was its first broadcast carried not music and news. Its first broadcast carried with it identity. And this is so critical. Everything is being flattened out now. Everything.
Starting point is 00:07:31 You go to one town after another and they're all the same. They have the Ann Taylor and the gap and everything. everything else and it's exactly the same. The first broadcast carried and the broadcasts that are still carried on your local station, Wo Woe told the nation that Indiana had something to say and that people could be both humble and mighty. It gave a voice to the farmers and the shopkeepers and the school teachers and the kids with dreams bigger than their town's borders. It carried their music, their songs. Wo Woe was the first radio station in the country to carry a basketball game.
Starting point is 00:08:17 It carried their prayers. When they first launched in the 1920s, they had a huge pipe organ, and every Sunday they would have services on the air. But what made these few stations so unique when CBS, two years after WoWO went on the air, maybe four years after they went on the air. They decided the Columbia Broadcasting System decided that they were going to make a network.
Starting point is 00:08:45 But how do you make a network? WoWO was one of the first 16 stations to say, we'll share the burden. We will go to the Bell system, now AT&T, and we will buy the phone lines from New York and we'll string them all the way to Fort Wayne. And that way we'll be able to carry a network show on a phone line.
Starting point is 00:09:08 And at night, when its clear channel signal stretched across the map from the Carolinas to New England, travelers and truckers that were far from home could turn on the dial and hear the warmth of the Midwest. They used to listen to KFI, early in the morning up in the Pacific Northwest, and I could hear the sound of Los Angeles. Here, amongst the busy streets
Starting point is 00:09:37 along the coastline of the Atlantic, people would be able to hear home. Wo-wo was the sound of home that was carried on the wind. Today we're kind of lost. Today we don't really know who we are. It's a world overflowing with noise. And yet there are those local stations, and I see them in town after town. When we go to serve after a hurricane,
Starting point is 00:10:05 it's the local station. It is the wo-wo of the market that is still doing with. what it always has, listening, serving, and reminding who we really are. For 100 years, this radio station has proven that community isn't something that we click on. Community is something that we build. And when you build it together and the static fades, something remarkable happens. We begin to hear each other again. Do you remember what? what it was like if you're at my age or maybe even a little longer, younger, listening to the
Starting point is 00:10:55 ball game onto the blankets. You'd go into your bed and you turn on your radio, your transistor radio and you could listen in the middle of the night and you would listen to voices far away. Today you're doing that. You're listening to voices all around the world. You're seeing images in your hand instantly live. Information is infinite. The problem is trust is scarce.
Starting point is 00:11:22 And that's why whoa-wo and stations like it endure. And they endure perhaps more urgently than ever before. Because they stand as proof that localism, the small town, the shops, the neighbors, the farms, they matter. When you watch national news, when you're seeing things on Facebook, everything is flattened. The perspective is just flat and the algorithms tailor the outrage for you. And then there's the local station that says, no, no, no, remember, here's who we are. Here's where we live. Here's what we love.
Starting point is 00:12:18 I've developed a new slogan internally for my own company, and that is, think small, dream big. Everybody's thinking too big. Think small. Connect with neighbors. Support your small business. Give people that are next to you a platform. because when you get to this level, when you get to the small local hometown and yet one of the first network stations, when you get to a place like Wo Wo, it's where it's one of the last institutions where people from opposite ends of the political spectrum might still hear the same words at the same time.
Starting point is 00:13:11 In a divided America that is rare and that is sacred. I travel the country. I've been in radio now. In 2027, it will be my 50th year in broadcast. I have been broadcasting half the time that WoW has been in business and it was one of the first stations in America. And I travel the country and the towns are the owners that don't appreciate or don't understand the power of local radio.
Starting point is 00:13:49 They have lost something irreplaceable. not not sound we have plenty of sound we've lost our story we've lost the voice that says good morning fort wayne and actually means it such an honor to be here today really it really is and i know if you're listening someplace especially in a big city this may me doesn't mean anything to you but it should because in the end it's not going to be a national voice that saves. It's not going to be the federal government. It's going to be all of us in our little towns all over America that saves things. And it's stations like Woe Woe that remind us the value is not in watts or ratings,
Starting point is 00:14:50 but in its quiet reminder that community is more than people sharing space. It's people sharing sound and memory. and truth. It was and remains the heartbeat and the static. Happy 100th anniversary, Whoa, Whoa, Radio. Thank you for being an original sponsor, an original affiliate of the Glenn Beck program. I remember the first time I was here. I had just written my first book. It was called The Real America. About four people read it. I showed up at a bookstore here in Fort Wayne. I had to stay there for, I think, an hour. I was contractually.
Starting point is 00:15:47 I had to stay there for an hour and nobody was there. I mean, after like 15 minutes, the whole place was empty. And I'm like, this is so awkward. I'm standing around in this bookstore and nobody is here. And these little old ladies came up. And they were local. And this one lady was introducing me to her other friends who hadn't listened to me yet. And at one point, she brought me a pie.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Another lady, I think, brought me a loaf of bread. and these were in the days when a listener could bring me something and I could actually eat it. And as lady said to me, we were sitting there talking and she reminded me of my grandmother. I could see her quilting her, what my grandmother used to say, her lap robe. My grandmother would quilt these blankets. We didn't know until after she died. She would quilt these blankets all winter long. We'd see her, but we didn't know what she was doing with them and she was giving them to the homeless.
Starting point is 00:16:50 And I could see this woman, just like my grandmother, just quiet. quietly quilting. And she looked at her friends and she said, you need to listen to this young man. She said, he's a really good boy. And then she grabbed my cheek. And she shook my cheek. And she said, just sometimes he gets a little out of control.
Starting point is 00:17:17 But he's a good boy. I was driving this morning early in Fort Wayne. It's still a town with a heartbeat. They've redone the downtown. It's beautiful. I should probably tell you it's not because I don't think everybody wants people to go, oh, I want to live in Fort Wayne. I think they would like to keep it like this, but the neighborhoods are still neighborhoods.
Starting point is 00:17:49 The big old houses aren't all run down in some ghetto. It's beautiful. And the trees are starting to turn colors. And some of the factories are even being used again. I was just at Berna, one of our sponsors there here in Fort Wayne. And they've been building here and building factories as American. gets back to work. I thought I could live here in a heartbeat.
Starting point is 00:18:26 But time goes on, and so does the news, and things get busier and busier and busier. And I got here yesterday, and I was worn out because I had spent a few hours with the president this week. The guy who had flown on Sunday, left in the afternoon on Sunday, went, flew across the ocean, went to Israel, greeted the hostages as they were being released, celebrated, then went and spoke at the Knesset for two hours, then got on another plane, went to Egypt, negotiated a peace deal, did all kinds of talking and picture taking and shaking of hands and everything else, got back onto a plane, arrived, met with the president of Argentina,
Starting point is 00:19:12 Malay, and then walked out into the Rose Garden and did a tribute to Charlie Kirk. And then after that, he walked back into the Oval Office, and I was standing outside of the Oval Office at one point. And it was lined with people waiting to go in and see him. And it was the Vice President and the Secretary of State. The guy moving so rapidly, and I was tired. A lot is happening in our world, and it's happening quickly. And we're going to get to that here in just a second.
Starting point is 00:19:43 First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. Sarah, who was our sponsor? It's a relief factor. Relief factor is a great way for you to get out of pain. If you are in pain, try relief factor. This is something that my wife wanted me to try years ago, and I really didn't think that it would work. You know, I've taken, I've had ibuprofen,
Starting point is 00:20:08 800 milligrams of it. Yeah, the prescription stuff. I mean the hard stuff, you know what I mean, stuff that you're just immediately addicted to. I've always found that ridiculous. And this stuff never worked. for me and I thought this is not going to work for my pain and I had been to some of the best doctors around trying to break this pain that was in my hands and my arms and it was really
Starting point is 00:20:26 bad and I got to a place where I couldn't use my hands a lot of the times I never thought I would paint for sure and I never thought I would write again with a pen which I love until I started taking relief factor and relief factor broke the back it's an amazing thing it has four ingredients where I think ibuprofen and Advil or whatever has two They use all four. And it works with your body just to shore your body up and have it work the way it's supposed to work. I want you to go to Relief Factor at 1-800-4 Relief. 1-800-the-number-4 relief.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Get their three-week quick start now, 1995, 1-800-4 relief. 10 seconds, station ID. Can you just check for me? What is the price of gold this morning? Is it $8,000 an ounce yet? Not quite. Not quite. I did see it hit over 4,300.
Starting point is 00:21:24 4,300. 4325 currently hit almost hit 4,400 yesterday. That is insane. That's insane. Do you remember, what was it, 18 months ago? We said, well, you know, this is kind of crazy. I mean, you know, get your $4,200 gold report. And it's $4,300.
Starting point is 00:21:46 And it was insane at least 20 months ago to say it would even hit $4,000. Now they're saying earlier this week, they said $5,000 gold. We're going to be hitting $8,000 gold at this pace. And what is it saying? Because I'm not sure. I know what gold says. The price of gold tells you that everybody is freaking out. But who's freaking out?
Starting point is 00:22:15 Because generally speaking, this is not being purchased by the average person in America or anywhere around the world. This is all being purchased by gigantic investors. the central banks. So what is it that the central bank knows that you don't know? This is such, I think this is one of the biggest signs I have ever seen on, hey, we all should be prepared. We all should be thinking about the economy differently than we are because the rich, the really rich, the central banks know something we don't know. We're going to get into that and so much more here in just a second. So stand by.
Starting point is 00:22:57 from Fort Wayne, Indiana, and Whoa, on their 100th anniversary. More in a minute. This is Glenn Beck. You know, home is where the comfort is. It's where you recharge, where you dream, where you escape the noise of the world, and find yourself again.

Starting point is 00:25:55 on the TV show. Then he left me, abandoned me and went to Fox because he thought he was better. And then he comes crawling back. No. And then he comes back after that experience. And I made him the executive director of Mercury 1, and he has just turboed Mercury 1. And I have to tell you, you, Suzanne, and the entire team at Mercury 1, I can't tell you how proud I am to be associated with you guys.
Starting point is 00:26:24 You have just, you've changed the world, JP. You really have. Thank you. It's such a blessing. It's honestly the best I've ever had besides working for you, obviously, so many years ago. Oh, I remember. Was it 10 years ago? how long was it that we went together to Moore?
Starting point is 00:26:40 Yeah. Yeah, just about 12 years ago now. And I mean, that was my hometown growing up and seeing it destroyed. But that was my first experience with Mercury One to see the impact that Mercury One was having at that time. And now that God's brought me back, it's so cool to be the first on the ground during disaster relief and being able to help people. Yeah, to remember you were, because you were just, I don't know if you were a senior producer at that point yet. But you were like, this is my hometown. and you wanted to go and we just loaded up trucks with supplies and drove
Starting point is 00:27:10 overnight and I remember we got there when the sun was rising and and I told the story and I had never seen if you've never seen a tornado you have no idea the damage I mean it is the power of a tornado it just takes whole homes and turns it into mulch and sprays it everywhere it's it's incredible the damage that was done. Yeah, and at that time, you know, we could see it for miles. I mean, we could see the sunrise from miles because all the houses were gone. And, you know, we see that all the time now, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:27:43 And now we're, now you are in charge of, uh, most of our humanitarian operations. And you were just in for the, is it one year anniversary? One year anniversary. Can you believe that since North Carolina? Since the Helene, you know, hurricane went up through the Florida coast and then Georgia, Tennessee. That's just shocking how it's been a year. And, you know, we've done so much since we've been there, too. We've rebuilt around 100 homes. That's just Western North Carolina.
Starting point is 00:28:10 We're working in Tennessee, Georgia, Florida. And also, you know, Texas Hill Country as well. We're working on about 70 homes in that area. People don't have any idea. What you have done, and I mean you, the listener, what you have done through Mercury 1 is game changing. I was just in an airport someplace. I don't remember where. Just this week.
Starting point is 00:28:30 And somebody was from Hawaii. And they said, hey, I wanted to. to thank you for Mercury One, you guys were there and you're still there helping us recover. I mean, the number of people and families that this audience has impacted through Mercury 1 is remarkable. Really, I don't know of anything like it. Yeah, and we've been able, when I was there a couple weeks ago, we went into this one neighborhood, just one of hundreds of homes we're working on. And there is about six homes that are almost completely rebuilt. Some of them were moving in a year to the year of the hurricane. And that was
Starting point is 00:29:07 impactful of itself that they're able to go back into their homes. But many of the stories we heard was one of them, this family, as the waters are rising, they had to climb and put their little kids up into the attic. And then they had to, as it rose up to the roof line, they had to chop their way through the roof and then get to the top and got the kids up there. But not, you know, just survival alone. But then this happened. They're up there and the kids are screaming for, they set around 20, 30 minutes just waiting for someone to come. And these two guys who had homes up on a hill heard their screams, got in their kayaks, and paddled down and rescued those kids. And that's just one of the many families that we get to now put them back into their homes.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Are we able to announce the storytelling aspect of some of this stuff? Is that next week or can we do that now? Next week. Next week. Yeah. We have something so I mean, next year, 2026 is such an exciting year. It's my 49th year of broadcast, and I just wanted to change things, so I go roaring into 50. And we have so many exciting things that we're going to be announcing here in the next few weeks. And bringing these stories to life, we're going to talk about that. And history and everything else, this weekend, and these tickets are already. all sold out in Dallas. I'm coming back tonight to do the fundraiser for Mercury 1,
Starting point is 00:30:37 which is tomorrow. And this one is for our maximum impact fund. And let me just quickly tell you, that just pays for all the bills. So when I go on the air and say, hey, 100% of every dollar raised is going to this. You know that's true because we've already raised the money to pay all the bills and everything else. But this also gives us the space, you know, if we have a pad of a million dollars or two million dollars we know if there's a major disaster we can load trucks up we can pay for the airplanes we can do everything and get there as things are still happening we can pre-position and that's what this does and we have a silent auction going on and you can go onto the website and where is where where do you find this jp you can go to the mercury one and then scroll down
Starting point is 00:31:25 just a little bit and there's probably going to be a pop-up as well that you can go to that link What's for sale? We've got all kinds of stuff on there. There's jewelry. There's also experiences. And then also you can just donate to maximum impact fund if you wanted to. But also, I think what is really cool that I love to tell people about this night is it's not just your normal gala.
Starting point is 00:31:48 It's a night where people can come. And our whole goal is for you, the donor, and the people that are coming to understand what God can do when you're willing to say, here I am, Lord, send me. And I think that's what's so cool about this night is that it's it's a worship service. It's prayer time. It's time to see what God has done and how we can rescue and restore the human spirit and that hope. That you so long ago, you framed that hope. And God gave you that vision, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:32:16 And now every gala, it's here's the hope to get us through the next year. And it's these donors who are willing to give to that maximum impact fund that really does allow us to be different than most nonprofits. to be able to say, like to those kids you and I called last year who raised $500, they're in Utah, and it's this small little school, and they raised $500 to go help the people in North Carolina. And we were able to tell those kids, that $500, all of it went to North Carolina. And I think that's just, that's such a promise that we have to, we want to keep, but it's also a calling that we have to keep because God's called us to that. And I think it's so cool.
Starting point is 00:32:56 I was, if I remember, I did a, I Skyped into the class and talked to the class. I don't even know if we ever covered any of that. We have to start covering some of the stuff. All of it. Mercury One does. But Skype into the class and talked to the class about what they did, where their money went. And it was, it was just so cool. This is a way for people to connect and to connect with things that are real.
Starting point is 00:33:19 You know, I think we live in a time where people think that they don't matter, that nothing matters, that, you know, know, nothing has any meaning. It does, but you have to go find the meaning. You have to go do things. You're not going to find meaning if you're just online all the time. You're not going to find meaning if you're not being pushed, if you're not pushing yourself, if you're not serving. You know, Ben Franklin said, they tried to trap him on which religion is the right one?
Starting point is 00:33:50 What's the American religion, Ben? and he said, the American religion is, we believe there's a God, we believe he will judge us, and so we should serve him, and the best way to serve him is by serving our fellow man. And that's what America has always been known for. We've been known for our charity, known for serving each other. And this raffle, you can get a brand new Ford F-150, a pretty good chance at getting that. And also you can look for the auction. There's a whole bunch of stuff, including stuff from me.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Did we auction off a day with me at all? We have not. No. Yeah, it kept coming back with negative results. Everyone kept saying, we really don't want that. People were requiring, they wanted you to pay them? We didn't understand with them. Yeah, the entire auction site went down when we tried.
Starting point is 00:34:41 That's weird. Yeah, it was weird. People really hate you. Huh. Okay. Well, anyway, that's around. That's from Mercury 1. Also, can we say who's going to be at the gala tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:34:53 I think this is really kind of exciting. You could if you'd like to. Glenn Beck. No, no, I don't. No, no. You go ahead. I don't want to. John Felice is a great Christian singer.
Starting point is 00:35:03 He's going to be performing as well. We've got some government officials that will be there as well. This is why I didn't say. We look at such a different world now. You know, it's like, yeah. This is why I didn't say anything because I would have said the name and I wasn't sure if I was supposed to say the name because we have another fundraiser coming up for our history thing and some really cool things. I'm going to be with Megan Kelly next Saturday at Dickie's Arena and I'm announcing some stuff about the next phase of my career and making some pretty big announcements there.
Starting point is 00:35:40 But then we're going to when is the date in the undisclosed location in West Palm? September 3rd. Yeah. Yeah. And are tickets available for that? They are. They are. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:55 So there's a, we can't tell you now where it is due to security reasons, but it's in West Palm. And it's, I got to just tell you, it's just down on the wharf. Anyway, it's a very nice place that you'll want to be at. And we have some really exciting things going on. And I'm not sure if we're going to be able to announce some of the things that you're to announce some of the things with the person that is coming to borrow from the government at this one, but we will be at the next one. It's some really exciting things.
Starting point is 00:36:27 And we want to thank you so much for being a part of Mercury One. And go to Mercury One.org. You can get your tickets for that undisclosed West Palm fundraiser. It's going to be a great night. I hear it's a nice place, and they serve good food. I've heard the same. I've heard you the same. And you could also go to our auction site now and sign up for the chance.
Starting point is 00:36:47 chance to win a Ford F-150, but you can also bid on the silent auction, which will be over tomorrow, right? Tomorrow night, yep. Okay. JP, let's have you on next week because I think the announcement, I just made a deal, I made a handshake deal with somebody that I would do something, but only if it, the story revolved around the audience. And that was a few months ago, and I'm going to be able to announce it next week.
Starting point is 00:37:23 And I just think it's one of the greatest stories that should ever, that should be told. And it's all about you, the audience. And I cannot wait to announce that next week. And Mercury 1 is going to be playing a very large part in 2026, and we'll have more details on that. Thank you so much, JP. Thank you. All right. Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. Who is it, Sarah? C factor. I'm sorry, my computer is, you know what? Microsoft. I bought one of their stupid, what is this thing called the surface? You have to pay, I had to pay like a billion dollars and I have to, I travel with them and I have them everywhere. And then they decided not to make them. And what a surprise. Every single one of the surfaces start to have the exact same glitch. It's almost like, Gates is saying, now you've got to buy the new stuff now.
Starting point is 00:38:19 So anyway, I don't have a lot of my notes in front of me. So it is who again, Sarah? Z factor. If you have a hard time sleeping, try Z factor. It is a natural way to get to sleep. You know, you can take the stuff that will knock you out. I don't recommend. You know, I don't want to wake up.
Starting point is 00:38:39 And I have, my wife and I were traveling with the kids. and I got up the next day and my kids were really awkward and my wife was really awkward and they all had like a private joke and I'm like, what's going on? And they're like, oh, nothing, Dad. You know, just the dogs that were talking
Starting point is 00:38:54 and I'm like, what are you talking about? Apparently I did a whole puppet show with dogs talking and I have no recollection of it because I was taking this sleeping medicine so I could sleep. It's horrible. Don't do it. Don't do it. Otherwise, the kids will blackmail you

Starting point is 00:39:34 More Glenn Beck in a Jeff. There's a crime most people don't even know exists until it happens to them. doesn't start with someone breaking a window or kicking down a door it starts with a few clicks on a keyboard it's called home title theft and criminals can find your title online they can forge your name on a transfer document and suddenly on paper at least your home belongs to them you won't see it happen you won't hear it happening you will not have any idea but one day you'll get a letter from bank saying that you're laid on a mortgage that you didn't take out or maybe notice that you have your home that's been sold out from under you. The worst part is once the damage is done,
Starting point is 00:40:22 they can take years, even longer, to untangle it. And that's why I tell people all the time to protect what is probably their biggest investment with home title lock. They're not a bank. They're not an insurance company. They're just specialists who monitor your title around the clock every day to make sure no one's messing with it. And if they notice any activity, they will alert you. They will help you shut it down before it spirals out of control. It's one of those services that kind of feels invisible until you need it. And then it feels like the smartest decision you've ever made in your entire life.

Maybe we can get into the New York City mayoral debate in which you have two candidates going at each other, Mamdani and Cuomo, one of which is a socialist, a democratic socialist by his own admission. also he has admitted in the past that he is a communist, a Bolshevist, is the way he put it.
Starting point is 00:42:03 He is looking to bring free buses and city grocery stores, policies that he will not explain at all, policies that he says will help in some way, but, I mean, I've been proven to be detriments to every place they've been implemented. and of course he said they were going to be free busing. They said, how is that free? And he said, well, we're going to raise taxes on the wealthy, which actually makes it not free. I don't know if people realize this. When you have tax dollars paying for it, that means it's not free.
Starting point is 00:42:38 That means someone's paying for it. It's just not the people actually using the service. And that's supposed to make us feel better about it. So you have that going on. And he is facing, I mean, because he's a terrible candidate. He'd really take almost anybody. compared to him, but he's facing off against one of the worst people humanity has ever produced in Andrew Cuomo, which is kind of a negative. You'd kind of hope that maybe you could have,
Starting point is 00:43:02 if you're going to find someone out of the lowest 0.000,0001% of all humanity, maybe they, you have that going on. And then you have a third candidate who actually would just be good, so he has no chance to win. So that's basically the way the New York City mayoral race is playing out right now. And if it seems like you've landed in a different world where nothing makes any sense, next up on the Glenn Beck program, we're going to talk about a giant Tick-Tac alien ship coming toward the planet. So everything should be totally fine. And honestly, at some point, you start to root for the alien Tick-Tac ship to just blow this whole thing up.
Starting point is 00:43:42 We'll see if that happens with Avi Lope. He's coming up next on the Glenn Beck program. This is Glenn Beck. Let me tell you about our sponsor. It's Audion. If you have hearing loss, you're probably tired of asking people, I'm sorry, can you say that again? And I know my wife is really tired of repeating herself. If you're tired of nodding along, hoping, you know, that you understood, it doesn't have to be like that because somebody has finally fixed what's broken about hearing aids. Audium. Audion has made the Adam X. It is the world's first over-the-counter touchscreen hearing aid. No app, no complicated sex. settings, no miniature buttons that require surgical precision, all of that.

I am convinced that some point in my lifetime I am going to hear either as a sciop or actually real aliens are headed our way. And there is this new comment.
Starting point is 00:46:26 a comet that is coming our way. And some say it's not a comet. Some people think it's a ship. There's some really interesting things about it. I think it's called the Three-Eye Atlas. And there are some that think that this is actually alien technology. It is from out of our solar system. It's like three and a half miles long.
Starting point is 00:46:46 It is enormous. And it's just coming around Jupiter and Mars now and headed around our sun, a very precise path. Avi Loeb is. is a Harvard University science professor.

It's great to have you on. So can you just please explain?
Starting point is 00:48:40 Are we just seeing these things more than we ever have because we have the eyes now in space to see this? Yeah, over the past decade, astronomers constructed the new. survey telescopes of the sky. Also, we have much better computers that allow us to digest large data sets. But the motivation for building those survey telescopes is a task that the Congress gave to NASA and the National Science Foundation, NSF, to survey the sky for any objects that are near
Starting point is 00:49:13 Earth that could collide with Earth because that poses the risk. And they posed it as the challenge of finding all objects bigger than a football. field that may collide with Earth, near-earth objects. And there were two major observatories constructed back a decade ago. There was Pan Stars in Hawaii. And recently, in June 2025, a new observatory in Chile was inaugurated called the Rubin Observatory, funded by the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation. And those allow us to see the size of a football field.
Starting point is 00:49:53 and have a complete survey. And amazingly, in 2017, an object like that was flagged. And then the astronomers realized it's actually moving too fast to be bound by gravity to the sun. So it came from outside the solar system. It couldn't have been around. So that was the first. It was given the name of Muamua, which means a scout
Starting point is 00:50:15 in the Hawaiian language. And then there were two others. Hold on just a second, because I remember this, and I think I talked to you around this time. Explain what you meant it was moving too fast. Oh, well, you know, the planets orbit the sun. For example, the Earth moves around the sun at the speed of about 30 kilometers per second, you know, which is faster.
Starting point is 00:50:39 It's 300 times faster than the fastest race car we have. I'm talking about 30 kilometers in one second. That's about 20 miles in one second. That's the speed by which the Earth orbits the Sun. But imagine boosting the air, just giving it, attaching a rocket to it, once it would reach a speed of about 42 kilometers per second, just bigger by the square root of two, a relatively 1.4 times the current speed that is moving, it will be able to escape the solar system. So it just needs a high enough speed to escape from the gravitational potential well of the sun. And we know what this speed is. And so if we see objects moving near the earth at more than 42 kilometers per second,
Starting point is 00:51:28 we know that they cannot be bound by gravity to the sun. They must have originated somewhere else. And so Omoa Muamua was one of those. And since then we found two more with telescopes. I actually identified with my student a fourth one, which was found by the U.S. government satellites that are monitoring the Earth. That was a meteor that came from interstellar space.
Starting point is 00:51:54 But at any event, the most recent one was found by a small telescope in Chile called the Atlas. Again, to identify risk for Earth. And that one was given the name three-eye Atlas. So help me out on this, because, I mean, we didn't have these telescopes. This is obviously a relatively new thing that we're doing. How much damage does a football field size comet or space debris? What would that do? What was the size of whatever killed the dinosaurs, if that indeed was what happened?
Starting point is 00:52:32 What is an Earth killer size? Yeah. Well, the size of a football field can, an object like that if it collides with Earth can cause regional damage, much more, you know, like of order a thousand times the Hiroshima atomic bomb energy output. So kind of like what happened in Russia back in the turn of the last century? Yeah, something. No, that one was actually much smaller than that was a thousand times less massive. Oh my gosh. You know, these big ones are really rare. And that's why I will say, as we continue the discussion,
Starting point is 00:53:11 I will mention this new one. It's estimated to be, you know, of order, the one that killed a dinosaur. And these are extremely rare. And so the question is, why are we seeing an interstellar object that big, you know, just within the last decade? But coming back to your question, the size of the asteroid that killed a dinosaur was roughly Manhattan Island. Okay, so compare the size of a football field to Manhattan Island. It's a very different scale. So what the Congress wanted NASA to do is identify those that will cause just regional damage, the catastrophe like happened with the dinosaurs where there was a nuclear winter, you know,
Starting point is 00:53:53 the earth was covered with dust and yeah. So and you know, 75% of all species died. And we all our existence because after the dinosaurs died, you know, the more complex animals came along and we are one of those species. So you say they're only looking for the small ones, but I'm sure if the big one shows up, you'll ring the bell. No, that's, it's much easier. It's much easier to see the big ones. Right. And do we have any technology that can move these things out or is this just something
Starting point is 00:54:27 that we're not? Just another thing on the plate. By the way, this could happen and it's coming our way and there's really nothing we could do. Is this just a big worry or is there things that we can actually do? Yes, we can because if you catch it early enough before it comes close to earth, you just need to nudge it a little bit to the side and then it will. will miss the earth. And there are all kinds of proposals for how to do that. You can, you know,
Starting point is 00:54:53 the most aggressive one is to explode the nuclear weapon on it. But doesn't, wouldn't that break it up? And then we'd have all kinds of little meteors coming our way? Yeah. Exactly. That's why it's not a good idea. You know, all the Patriot missiles were doing just that. And they created, when they were operated back a decade ago, you know, they created much more damage than, you know, help actually but then you can do it in a more intelligent way maybe explode the weapon closed to the object so that it doesn't disintegrate it just ablates a part of it and then you get the rocket effect from from the ablation pushing it but there are other ways that some people suggested painting it on one side so that you
Starting point is 00:55:39 know it reflects more sunlight on one side and then it's getting nudged a little bit you can imagine shepherding it with a by gravity, you know, the spacecraft is massive enough and it shepherds it, it attracts, it basically gives it a gravitational nudge. There are all kinds of methods that were proposed. And by the way, NASA just a year ago, they tried one of these methods with a mission called Dark, where they collided with an asteroid just to see how much it gets kicked as a result and what happens to it. And it was quite surprising. because, you know, some of these asteroids are not very rigid.
Starting point is 00:56:20 They are porous, and you get all kinds of dust thrown out of them in ways that they were not anticipated. So at any event, the people are thinking about, you know, rocks are easy to deal with because in principle you can tell what their path would be. However, one thing that was never discussed is the kind of thing I'm trying to advocate, we do, is what if there is some alien technology? out there, then you know, if it has, if it was designed by intelligence, you won't be able to forecast exactly what it would do. It's just like finding a visitor to your backyard. The visitor may enter through your front door. You have to act immediately and you need to engage with it in
Starting point is 00:57:05 ways that are much more complicated than dealing with a rock. Okay. So let me, another thing. Here's something else you can worry about. So let me, let me start there, because there's some things that I've been reading. I don't know what's true. I don't know what's not true on this three-eye atlas. And I want to break that down, including the wow signal, which I think you had something. You were there, weren't you for that in 77 or whenever that was? We'll talk to you about that. Give me 60 seconds. Let me tell you about Rough Greens. Dr. Dennis Black, the naturopathic doctor behind Rough Greens, just wrote a book that every pet owner needs to read. It's called Natural Path to Pet Health, How to Save Thousands on Pet Food and VIII.

All right, back with Avi Loeb, the professor from Harvard in 60, or sorry, 10 seconds. Okay, so I don't know what's real, what's not real. I don't know who has credibility, you know, we've heard so many things about, you know, extraterrestrial technology. We had, you know, all of the drones in the sky that everybody was thinking aliens were going
Starting point is 00:59:18 to invade us for a while. And the world is on edge. I mean, we're very 1938, 39, War of the World's kind of territory in a, in a, American, I think the world were freaked out about everything. So tell me about 3i Atlas and why you say it may have alien technology. Right. So let me give you the facts. I mean, the whole point about doing science is that we can collect evidence data from instruments and we don't need to rely on stories that people tell. So what are the facts that make it really unusual. Well, first of all, it's the size. As I mentioned in the beginning, we expect many more
Starting point is 01:00:03 small objects than big objects. And the previous two interstellar objects were roughly hundreds of meters in size. You know, the first one or more and more was of all the football field, 100 meters. And this one, I wrote a paper two weeks ago that shows that it's bigger than five kilometers, you know, comparable to the size of Manhattan Island. and that means it's a million times more massive if you take solid density relative to the first one or Muamua a million times more so how can it be the third object we should have seen millions of a more like objects before seeing a big one like that we wouldn't have we didn't have the way wait but we didn't
Starting point is 01:00:45 have the technology to see it right I mean these things are passing no no no it's easier to see the big ones because they reflect much more sunlight so in fact especially if They shed mass or more than what did not shed any mass. There was no gas or dust around it. We just said so the bare object. And it was already puzzling because of that. It was pushed away from the sun by some mysterious force.
Starting point is 01:01:09 It was very, most likely flat and had an extreme shape. And it accelerated, right? It didn't just just whip around the sun. It accelerated, which does not naturally happen. Yeah, well, it happens if there is a rocket effect. if there is, if it's losing mass in one direction and getting recoil in the opposite direction. But there wasn't any mass loss observed from, from, Muammu. Nevertheless, what I'm saying is an object that is a million times more massive is much easier to see.
Starting point is 01:01:41 You know, when we talk about it being within the distance of the earth from the sun. And so we could have seen that easily, many of those small ones before we see a big one. And then the second one was a comet very similar to the type of natural comets we see. And that one was a thousand times less massive than this new one, three-eye Atlas. So the size is anomalous. It's just surprising that we would see a giant one like that. There is not enough rocky material in interstellar space to supply such a giant one once per decade to the inner solar system. And we would expect it once per 10,000 years or so.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Anyway, that's the size anomaly. Then there is the fact that, you know, the Hubble Space Telescope observed it and noticed, I mean, in the image, it displays glow that is towards the sun, pointing towards the sun instead of what you usually see for comets where you see glow pointing away from the sun. And the reason you see that away from the sun is because dust and gas are being pushed by the sunlight and the solar wind away from the sun. That's what gives it to look a comet, a look of a tail. Exactly. That's the definition of a comet. So then, you know, all the comet experts said, oh, look, here is a comet, because we see this extension of a globe. But what they didn't realize.
Starting point is 01:03:13 So they were, you know, it's just like seeing an animal in your backyard. and everyone says, oh, it must be a street cat because it has a tail. But then you look at the photograph of this animal and you see that the tail is coming from its forehead. And you say, well, how is that a street cat? A common street cat does not have a tail coming from its head. So anyway, this one is the first one, you know, that shows such a thing, and unlike regular comets. And then in addition, so these are two anomalies so far.
Starting point is 01:03:48 In addition, the trajectory of this object is aligned to within five degrees with the ecliptic plane of the planets around the sun. And the chance of that is one in 500. So basically it comes in the plane where all the planets are moving around the sun. And, you know, that could be by intelligent planning because if you wanted to do a reconnaissance mission, you know, coming close to planets. That's the way to do it. And the previous one came, you know, both Omoa and the second one, Borisov, came at a very large angle. So this one comes straight in the plane, and you ask why? Why is it coming in the plane? And by the way, all of these
Starting point is 01:04:33 anomalies, nobody that is calling himself or herself a comet expert, they just say it's a comet. But if you ask them, why is that, they would not have an explanation. Why does it come in a plane? Oh, it's by chance. Oh, it's by chance. Why is it, you know, why does it have this glow towards the sun rather than a way? Oh, it's something we don't fully understand. So they would say that, but they would not admit that it could be something else. Then there is the arrival time of this object. You know, it arrived to the solar system at a special time because it's passing, you know, very close to Mars, Venus, and Jupiter. And, you know, these planets are moving around the sun and you have to be at the right time, at the right time. place in order to come within tens of millions of kilometers from each of them. And so that's another coincidence that, you know, might indicate fine tuning that, you know, there is some reason that it's coming so close. And then then. So hang on just a second.
Starting point is 01:05:32 Hang on. I just want to clear some stuff up. And then I got to take another break. All of these things could be chance, right? But you're saying now they're just all. The probability for each of them is very small. Right. So you need to multiply each likelihood by another, and you get something like one in a million chance.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Okay. I want to come back. I want to talk to you about the other things that I've heard that start to really sharpen this is that the surface is unlike it. It's not only not shedding any gas or any debris, but the surface appears to be different. The makeup of it is different. And I want to get to the wow signal, which is something that happened in 1977 that people just dismissed. And you now say that may have come from this object.
Starting point is 01:06:33 We'll talk about it coming up. This is Glenn Beck. All right. It's something even more frightening coming that's Manhattan-shaped. Mom Donnie. We'll talk about that coming up in just a little while. Let me tell you about life lock. Imagine if somebody could step into your life without ever opening your front door,

Starting point is 01:07:59 More with Avi Loeb next. Our guest is Avi Loeb. He's a professor at Harvard. He is the director of the Institute for Theory and Computation within the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. He is the head of the Galileo Project, longest serving chair. of Harvard's Department of Astronomy. I mean, he's written
Starting point is 01:08:34 nine books, thousands of scientific papers. I mean, the guy is, the guy knows what he's talking about. And he is the one physicist, the one scientist that is coming out and saying, hey, we should, we should look for other things.
Starting point is 01:08:51 Instead of just saying, ha, don't know, maybe we should consider that this is intelligently designed. And he's talking about the three eye atlas. This is a, they say a comet, but he says maybe not, the size of Manhattan that on October, I think it's 25th of this year, is going to come the closest to Earth. It's like 170 million miles away from us. And he says it might be something to observe the planets in our solar system and, you know, kind of a space traveler. Avi, welcome to the program. Thanks for having me. Okay, so talk to me about the surface of this, because I don't know what's true and what's not.
Starting point is 01:09:37 I read that the surface is smooth, and it also seems to have a different density than what we would expect from a comet and a different material. What's true? What's not? What we see is a plume of gas around it, which might have been released. because of the illumination by the sun, but we don't know. And we can tell the composition of this gas around it. And what we find is, in difference from what comet experts forecasted, they said it will be water.
Starting point is 01:10:13 That's what comets in the solar system lose mostly water. It turns out that water makes only 4% of the mass of the plume of gas around it. It's mostly carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and there are some training. levels of nickel and cyanide. Now, nickel in other comets, in all the comets that we know about, nickel comes with iron. They have comparable abundance. But in this case, it's only nickel that was detected with no iron. And the only way, the only other place where we see that is in industrially produced nickel alloys, when we refined nickel. and use that for aerospace applications for all kinds of industrial applications.
Starting point is 01:11:04 So the reason... So wait, wait, wait. So you're saying nickel always generally comes bound with iron when you have it in the raw form? Yeah, because they are both produced by the same origin in exploding stars that are called supernovae. And in fact, there is even more iron than nickel by mass in the composition of the sun. So in comets, you see comparable levels of nickel and iron. In this object around it, you know, there are two very detailed studies that detected very prominent nickel abundance, but no iron whatsoever. And the question is why.
Starting point is 01:11:44 And the authors of those papers suggest, well, maybe there is in nature the same process that we use. It's called the carbonyl process used to refine nickel industrially. Maybe the same thing happens in three-eye Atlas, but it's unique. There is no other place where we've seen it. So that's another anomaly. So hang on. Let me just, can I just play devil's advocate here for a second? We know so little about the universe.
Starting point is 01:12:12 I mean, we know so little about the human brain. Why is it more logical to say it is intelligently designed than there's a place in the universe that does this? Well, just because before 3i Atlas, the only place where we saw nickel without iron is an industrial production of nickel alloy.
Starting point is 01:12:36 So the authors of the paper say, yeah, maybe nature does it as well. And I'm saying, well, maybe it's not nature. That's all. So we don't know for sure. You're right. It's possible that nature is as innovative as we are when we make. You know, the reason that we separate nickel is in order to get it
Starting point is 01:12:52 to be a stronger material. material that is resilient against heat and all kinds of other. So maybe. You would imagine then if this is nickel, if this is, this is, you know, you can't use this term, but manmade, if this was intelligently designed, it would not appear on the surface to be a comet or a rock, right? It would be more smooth. It would, but we don't have an image that shows up the object itself.
Starting point is 01:13:21 All we see is the glow of gas or, or, or. something else around it, we don't know. So when we see that cylindrical tube-looking thing, that's not an actual picture of what it looks like? No, no, because that's on scales of hundreds to thousands of kilometers. The object itself is of the order of 10 kilometers, much smaller, and we just don't have big enough telescope to resolve it. So we can just see the glow around it,
Starting point is 01:13:50 which are materials released by the object. We have no, but on the other hand, on October 2nd, there was a camera on board the Mars reconnaissance orbiter that NASA put near Mars that took an image of this object when it came closest to Mars just a week ago. And that camera did not, you know, the data that was obtained was never released because of the government shutdown. So we don't, I mean, we could in principle get a better sense of the nature of the object. the size of the object and perhaps more details about if we could get this data out, but somehow NASA is not operational right now. The other, I wanted to mention a few other anomalies. One is the light coming from Triathlis is very negatively polarized,
Starting point is 01:14:41 something that is unprecedented for all known comets. What does that mean? Well, then we don't know what, I don't know what to make of it. maybe the geometry of the object is unusual, like this jet that I mentioned in the beginning, the glow that is actually 10 times longer than it is wide in the direction of the sun. Maybe that is producing a very unusual polarization. That may be, but what I'm saying is nobody tried to explain those facts. And finally, there is this coincidence that you mentioned between the arrival direction of three-eye Atlas
Starting point is 01:15:15 and the wow signal that was discovered in 1977 that was definitely extraordinary. It was a radio signal in narrow band from a source that is approaching the Earth, and it came from within nine degrees of the arrival direction of Triadalas. So the chance of that happening at random is 0.6%. And I'm just asking, you know, is it possible that the signal came from the direction of Priya Atlas? Explain the wow signal, because wow was what was really? was what was written, if I'm not mistaken, on the tape as it was going through, you know, the, the, the, the graph or the charts that were printed out of the time. The scientists that saw it just wrote wow on it because it was not, it was not natural occurring. At least that's what he thought at the time, right?
Starting point is 01:16:11 Well, it was a 72 second long burst of radio emission from, uh, uh, uh, the least that's what he thought at the time, right? direction from a source that was not there before or after and and it came at the frequency just a little bit above a natural frequency of hydrogen. So we can tell that the source was approaching the sun. But we don't know the nature of the source. And what information did it give us? We don't know. No, there is no information content that was identified in the signal itself, but that's what the people at the time were searching for, some radio signal from an extraterrestrial civilization. Right.
Starting point is 01:16:56 This is the only credible signal way above the noise that was discovered. And my point is the chance of it being in the direction of Triadlas to within nine degrees is 0.6%. So maybe we should use radio observatories to look at Triadlas and see if there is any radio emission. So far, no report came on from radio observatory. And I spoke a few days ago with a person in charge of the Juno spacecraft around Jupiter because 3A Atlas will come close to Jupiter within 54 million kilometers on March 16th,
Starting point is 01:17:34 2026. And he told me the PI, the principal investigator of this Juno spacecraft near Jupiter that they will use the radio antenna to any radio emission from 3A Atlas. So I'm very hopeful that at the very list we'll have data from Juno. By the way, Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna called me a month ago and asked me for an update about 3A Atlas. And I gave her an update and also mentioned a paper that I wrote about using Juno to detect 3i Atlas. And she very graciously wrote a formal letter to Sean Duffy, the interim administrator of NASA, and encourage NASA to use Juno for that purpose.
Starting point is 01:18:19 What will it tell you if we find out that, you know, that radio signal or it is some sort of anomaly that is not naturally occurring? What is it doing and what would that tell you? Right. And how old would it have to be? Well, the age, we don't know, and we don't know how much traffic there is of gadgets in our vicinity and what the purpose might be. but there is a very clean way of telling the difference between a spacecraft and a rock. You know, if you see some transmission of radio waves that, you know, a rock would never emit, or if you detect a maneuver when the object comes close to the sun,
Starting point is 01:19:07 if it suddenly changes trajectory, taking advantage of the gravitational assist from the sun, if the object releases mini-probes that visit planets, or if it shows some excess heat from an engine. You know, you can tell that it's technological. So we have to monitor it. We should not assume that it's a rock. And I go beyond that. I say that there should be an international committee that collects data
Starting point is 01:19:32 and coordinates the assembly of data for any future interstellar object that the Rubin Observatory in Chile will find. Every few months we're expecting to find a new one in the coming decade. And moreover, you know, the US president should be briefed about any objects that appear to be technological. I don't expect politicians to do anything until the first encounter. And really, I hope that we will survive that. But after the first encounter, I'm sure that a significant fraction of military budgets worldwide would be dedicated to an alert system that we put, you know, in the outer solar system to
Starting point is 01:20:15 alert us for any incoming technologies. Do you believe that you're going to see alien something in your lifetime? I think, as billions of years before we came along, I think that Elon Musk is not the most accomplished space entrepreneur since the Big Bang, you know, 13.8 billion years ago, despite of what he says. But it's not a question of belief, you see, this is just looking at your backyard and checking if there are any visitors. And, you know, you. you know, we might have been blind until the last decade because we haven't searched. And there might have been traffic that we are not aware of. So my point is, let's just look at the evidence at the data and not assume that everything is rocks out there.
Starting point is 01:21:04 Professor, thank you so much. Really appreciate it. It's always great to talk to you. I mean, I don't know what the answers are, but you're a fascinating thinker. Thank you so much. Thank you. And I should mention that in a week on Joe Rogan's podcast. So if anyone wants more detail, I'll be talking about it there.
Starting point is 01:21:22 It probably will be like three, four hours. So there will be more detail. Yeah, great. Avi, thank you so much. Avi, Lobb, Harvard, University Science Professor and Physicist. Could the Three-Eye Atlas be alien technology? Again, I don't know the answer, but it's Friday. I kind of like to think about these things.
Starting point is 01:21:41 All right, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. There's a celebration in the air right now. the hostages have come home, families are being returned, and for the first time in a long time, there's a flicker of hope that maybe, maybe peace in the Middle East might actually be possible. As we get a couple of days away, now you're starting to hear more and more about, they don't want to give up their guns. So I don't know, but at least we have the hostages home. And even in these moments of joy, there's a lot of work to be done.
Starting point is 01:22:07 Communities in Israel are still rebuilding. Families are still hurting. And threats that were made this past couple of years are so devastating. They just haven't gone away. That's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is still on the ground every single day, bringing food, shelter, and comfort to those who need it most. Look, I don't want to fight Israel's wars. I don't want anything to do with their wars. I don't know about them politically.
Starting point is 01:22:30 That's not my country. You know, they can do their own thing. But I believe we do have a reason and a responsibility to stand up for those people who have been under attack forever, literally from the beginning of time. and support them in their right to live and defend themselves. The fellowship teams are on the ground right now, and they're handed delivering boxes and boxes of food, nutrition to feed and comfort the poorest people, the elderly, the kids that are still waking up with nightmares every night.
Starting point is 01:23:02 If you want to find out how you can take part in IFCJ's mission, go to the fellowship. It's International Fellowship of Christians and Jews at IFCJ.org. That's IFCJ. dot org. Freedom's worth a lot more than comfort. Are you uncomfortable yet? Glenn Beck is back after this.
Starting point is 01:23:28 From Fort Wayne, Indiana and Woeo Radio, it's Friday. I have Eric Trump going to, he's going to be joining me here in about half an hour. I just, you know, want to see what, what, what, what, how does your dad stay awake all the time? I mean, I really want to know that is a superpower that that guy has. So we're going to talk to him about a new book that he's got out on, you know, what has happened to the Trump family. I'm so sick and tired of hearing the left say, you know, he's persecuting people. You want persecution?
Starting point is 01:24:22 Let's go through what they did to the Trump family. We'll talk about that. Also, Mom Donnie, the, I think the world's weirdest debate happened last night. What is your quick takeaway on the debate last night? I mean, basically you're talking about two of the worst people society has ever produced, battling it out against a guy who just seems nice and wanting to help, so he has no chance to win whatsoever. Right. Exactly right. You know, the one normal guy doesn't have a chance. Mom Donnie, the communist, everybody loves, and he's up against the guy who killed your grandmother during COVID. I mean, it's New York, good luck with that. Sincerely, good luck with that. We're going to go through it here in just, a second, standby. Let me talk to you a little bit about Jace Medical. The strange thing about
Starting point is 01:25:30 modern life is we stream from a movie, you know, from space, but we can't get basic medicine, you know, if a storm knocks out power for two days, surrounded by technology, but when something goes wrong, the simplest things that matter most is the hardest to get. Jace Medical understands the need for being prepared. They created the Jace case, which is a supply of essential antibiotics that you can keep right at your home in case the pharmacy closes or, you know, something happens during the weekend, can't get a hold of the doctor, he can't get to the pharmacy or supply chain stalls or whatever. Every pill is prescribed by a licensed physician delivered to your door.
Starting point is 01:26:05 It's like having a doctor who thinks ahead, who knows that life doesn't always run on schedule. Because when the lights go out or the road shut down or you're traveling, you don't want to say, ah, I wish I would have. No, be calm, be smart. Have everything you need with Jase.j.j.org.

Starting point is 01:27:33 Unfortunately, it's New York. We're all going to suffer if they are suffering. And boy, are they about to suffer? Last night, the debate between Cuomo and Curtis Slewa and Mom Johnny was, I mean, it's a clown show. I mean, really, honestly, they all should have pulled up in a little clown car and got now, except for Slewa, because it's a clown show. What the hell is happening to us? And then in Virginia, you had the debate with the Attorney General who was like, yeah, I think we should kill children, you know, just because I disagree with him politically. And he's still going strong.
Starting point is 01:28:11 In New Jersey, you've got the gubernatorial candidate who is like, I don't, what do you mean? The New York Times said I made $7 million. Seven million dollars. I don't know. I'd have to check on that. You don't know if you while you were in Congress made $7 million that you went from $3 million to $10 million of net worth. You have no idea. You got to check on that. Please, we're about to get what we deserve. And that's not going to work out well for the rest of us who are like, I don't want to deserve that. I don't think this is a good idea. We'll go over all of the details for you here in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. Every call you make, every text you send every gigabyte that moves through the network, it all flows through somebody's company.
Starting point is 01:28:58 And many of those companies have decided that your values don't really matter. I mean, it's their politics that matter, not your values. So they take your money and they use it to fund the same agenda you spend your days fighting against. This is why Patriot Mobile exists. They are the nation's only conservative Christian wireless provider. They use the same nationwide networks as the big guys, so you get the same strong signal, the same fast data, the same coverage, but your money goes someplace better. It goes to causes that stand for faith and family and freedom.
Starting point is 01:29:29 Patriot Mobile, they're not reinventing the wheel. They're just giving you the freedom to choose which direction that rolls. So they make the switch really easy. You can keep your phone, your number, even your plan. Again, they're on the same exact cell towers, the same networks, and you're going to save money. Switching is easier than ever activate in minutes from the comfort of your own home or your car, wherever you are, keep your number, your phone or upgrade. Make the switch today.

Hey, Glenn, how's it going? Well, I'm glad I don't live in New York anymore. I'm glad of you that we moved to Texas.
Starting point is 01:30:09 Very excited. Oh, my gosh. Not want to be facing the decisions that people who live in New York City are facing. I mean, during COVID, you made a lot of money. on cops, mugs, and t-shirts saying how bad Cuomo is, worst person in the world. And yet I think he's the better choice if it's between him and Mamdani. You know, I don't, it's such a difficult thing to describe because you have a terrible candidate, a terrible, would be a terrible mayor in Momdani, who would do all sorts of
Starting point is 01:30:42 things that would really destroy the country and the city itself more directly. And then you have, you know, one of the worst people that we can even imagine being in charge of anything. A person who, as you pointed out earlier, is likely to kill your grandmother and likely to grope your daughter. So, you know, whether you want to put someone like that in power is a whole... What do you think about the Cuomo slogan, hey, at least he's not Pol Pot? I guess. I'm sure he's killed a few people, but he's not Pol Pot. Yeah, he's killed that many people.
Starting point is 01:31:22 Yeah. Right. Pol Pot did it too, and he did it a lot more. Right. It's not a chicken in every pot. It's a pole in every pot. Yeah, that's exactly right. You know, it's just hard for, like, I keep talking to people who are like, gosh, I can't, I hope Cuomo wins.
Starting point is 01:31:39 And it's like, it's really hard for me to get there mentally. I understand why you wouldn't want Mom Donnie. I get it. but man like you want me to I'm sorry pardon me excuse me from the conversation if what the conversation is I have to advocate for Andrew Cuomo I'm sorry I'm sick that day that year that lifetime I'm never going to advocate for Andrew Cuomo he is among the worst people that has ever been produced by humanity and and I you know so is Mom Donnie by the way and mom donnie's policies might be a little worse you remember Cuomo
Starting point is 01:32:16 policies are terrible too. I think people just look at Cuomo as a known quantity. Sure, he's going to probably kill your grandmother. Sure, he's going to molest your daughter. Sure, he's going to be completely corrupt and break every law he can find. But he's not Momdani. And that is it. Maybe there's enough. Here's the difference. Here's a difference. Mom Donnie's policies do lead to pull pot. If you're a communist, they eventually do lead to pole pot. You know, if you're a, if you're an Islamist, you know, it leads to Sharia law. So none of those are, I mean, you know, okay, let me soften the Cuomo slogan. Grandma would vote for him if grandma hadn't been killed by him.
Starting point is 01:33:00 Right. How about that? I mean, if he didn't kill so many. I try to make this sellable for him. Maybe he would win this election if all the people he killed were still alive. That's the path to success. If he hadn't killed your grandmother, he'd probably win. Oh, that's great.
Starting point is 01:33:16 You know, it's just tough to see how either one of these people could even be considered for this job. And of course, you know, everyone's like, oh, gosh, well, you know, you have, it's got to be one of these two people. Does it? Is that true? Is that? I'm curious if that's actually true because my understanding was there's a third person on stage. Right. Curtis Sliwa who would actually be a good mayor of the city.
Starting point is 01:33:39 Who's the main thing he's known for is trying to protect you from being stabbed on the subway. This is the one thing this guy's done his entire life is take his own time and yes, put on a somewhat silly hat and go out and try to protect you and your children from being stabbed or mugged. Yeah, but we can't have him. He's crazy. Let's not even consider him. Let's not even consider him. That makes perfect sense, especially when you're New York City, a place that has had, I guess like. People stabbed?
Starting point is 01:34:13 No, a lot of people stabbed. But I would say over the past like 30 or 40 years has had two periods of prosperity, both of which coincide with Republican mayors. And that's just total coincidence, of course. Right. And then times of absolute misery and despair and just horrible, horrible crime, poverty, everything else. And those are done by the progressives. Yes. One of which, by the way, is noted as the favorite mayor of one of the two candidates running.
Starting point is 01:34:56 Bill de Blasio is Mamdani's favorite mayor. So those are your choices. Now, I can understand, like, you know, the reason why I think Cuomo seems a little bit better to people is like, Mom Dhani's saying DeBlasio is his favorite mayor. And Cuomo, I think intelligently, is coming out and saying, can you believe this guy? You know, he's saying he's admitting it right now. He's saying DeBlasio's his favorite mayor. How can you vote for this guy?
Starting point is 01:35:21 An understandable line of attack. Another understandable line of attack for Cuomo is to say, hey, have you noticed my opponent seems to really like Hamas? Has anyone noticed? Has anyone? Now, I know I killed a bunch of your grandparents, but he wants to kill all of you if you happen to be Jewish. and he keeps bringing this up
Starting point is 01:35:45 and you know what happens when he brings it up? Jews want to vote for him, 70-30. So I don't really know why it seems to go this direction right now. He seems to be winning among the voters which he is most likely to end their lives
Starting point is 01:36:01 and both candidates want to end the lives of tons of their constituents. We need to be clear about that. But Mamdani is specifically and now of course he, this is all alleged he would never admit such a thing. He would just say stuff like, of course I want Israel to exist. I just would never endorse a nation to exist that has a hierarchy of religion and class. Now, of course,
Starting point is 01:36:29 what he's saying there is, you know, what his interpretation of the modern state of Israel is. He's just explaining it in a separate sentence from when he lies to you and says he does want it to exist. He has the right to exist as long as you. He has the right to exist as long as. It runs itself as a totally different country. Let me show you how Mom Donnie was discrediting Cuomo last night. Cut Six. In other words, what the Assemblyman said is he has no experience. And this is not a job for someone who has no management experience to run 300,000 people,
Starting point is 01:37:05 no financial experience to run $115 billion budget. He literally has never had a job. On his resume, it says he interned for his mother. this is not a job for a first timer. Any day, you could have a hurricane, you're God forbid a 9-11, a health pandemic. If you don't know what you're doing, people could die. Mr. Mandi, want to respond?
Starting point is 01:37:28 And if we have a health pandemic, then why would New Yorkers turn back to the governor who sent seniors to their death in nursing homes? That's the kind of experience that's on offer here today. What I don't have an experience, I make up for an integrity, and what you don't have an integrity, you could never make up for an experience. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:42 May I? first, what you said was totally false, as you know. During COVID, everyone did whatever they could in this state. And there have been numerous investigations where they've gone through it, and they said we follow federal guidance. But yes, people died during COVID. And my heart breaks for everyone that died in this state and across this nation. But just to be clear, Mr.
Starting point is 01:38:09 Just to fact check that, there is a criminal investigation, reportedly underway at the DOJ about your testimony to Congress about your nursing home record. Yeah, that was, that is a political issue with the Congress. They made a referral, which has gone absolutely nowhere. I love that his ex, his, his actual excuse for his record is there's been multiple investigations that they yeah, yeah, there have been. That's because a lot of people were dropping dead under your leadership, you moron. Oh, God, he's the worst. Here he is, again, Mamdani, taking another shot at Cuomo. Listen to this.
Starting point is 01:38:48 ...the date in the Democratic primary for him to set foot in a mosque. He had more than 10 years, and he couldn't name a single mosque at the last debate we had that he visited. And what Muslims want in this city is what every community wants and deserves. They want equality and they want respect. And it took me to get you to even see those Muslims as part of this city. And that, frankly, is something that is shameful and is why so many New York... have lost faith in this politics. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:13 Stop right. Stop, stop right here. Stop right here for a second. Does anybody else remember 9-11? I mean, we're having this conversation in that city. And I mean, it's, I mean, never forget. It was not like we're talking about just Muslims. We're talking about Islamists.
Starting point is 01:39:37 We're talking about a guy who believes in Sharia law. believes that this Islamist sort of rule should happen. And they're having this conversation in New York City. What hell is wrong with people in New York City? What really, honestly, what the hell is wrong with you in New York City? All right, go ahead, play the rest. Is something that is shameful and is why so many New Yorkers have lost faith in this politics. Yeah, except that is totally false.
Starting point is 01:40:07 I worked with the Muslim community for many, many years. Name a single mosque you went to when you were. Can you name a single mosque you went to in 10 years? Before you were ever here. That's what you did to do. Before I was here. Before you were even in state government. I worked with the Muslim community.
Starting point is 01:40:21 Imams presided over state of the states. We worked in religious working groups. You couldn't visit a mosque. Anti-Semitic groups. Why would he be visiting mosques? What is the purpose of that? So he can glad hand a bunch of people while they're trying to go to church? Like what?
Starting point is 01:40:40 Why wouldn't you, why wouldn't you respond, name the synagogues that you've been to? I mean, I don't know if he's been to synagogues, but I'm guessing, you know, that's high up on his list. Yeah, he probably has just to, during this campaign just to do it. But like, it's a, it's a bizarre thing. Like, is that, is that how you, you run a city? You run a city by going to visit various mosques? That's now a requirement to run New York City to run anything? It doesn't make any sense at all.
Starting point is 01:41:13 You shouldn't. He's not, he's not Islamic. Like any, any visit he would make to a mosque would be a political pandering gesture. Yes. Right. Here's what's remarkable to me. Did you see the price of gold yesterday?
Starting point is 01:41:31 What is it right now? It was at 43.25 last time I checked it. Yeah. 43.25. It was in the 3,000s a few days ago. 43.25. That is a big warning sign. You lose New York City.
Starting point is 01:41:51 That is our financial capital. You start to take that city down and dismantle that city. That affects all of us, all of us. And New York is just going down this insane road. Like, yep, we want to give this a whirl. Well, you're taking the rest of us down with you. I mean, it is, we need to pay attention. Gold, the price of gold, is telling us something.
Starting point is 01:42:17 What should we be hearing from that? More in just a second. First, let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.

Mypatriotsupply.com slash Glenn. 10 seconds. begin to make sense of the world. And how unhinged the left is from reality. You know, when you have Jay Jones, because he was on, do we have any,
Starting point is 01:44:05 we have any of the audio from Jay Jones yesterday in his debate? The guy is still, he's still running. He's still running. You know, I, I, you know, I wish, uh, I wish that Republican, you know, was shot in the head. I wish his children were shot and dying in the mother's arms and she was, and he's still running and they're cool with that? Listen to this.
Starting point is 01:44:27 This is addressing the text during the debate last night. Cut seven. Now tonight, you're going to hear two very different visions for the future of this Commonwealth. And you're also going to hear from my opponent about text messages that I sent that I deeply, deeply regret. I should, yeah. Let me be very clear. I am ashamed.
Starting point is 01:44:46 I am embarrassed and I'm sorry. I'm sorry to Speaker Gilbert. I'm sorry to his family. I'm sorry to my family. And I'm sorry to every single Virginia. I cannot take back what I said. Yeah, but you know, there is something about being ashamed of something so ashamed that you're like, I can't even face it.
Starting point is 01:45:13 This was so bad. That doesn't sound like I'm really ashamed of anything. It didn't sound like I'm really sorry for anything. This is the problem with this. This is the chief law enforcement officer of the state. When your chief law enforcement officer says, yeah, the only way people change their positions is if they feel real pain like being shot because of their political positions. What does that mean as a law enforcement officer? as the guy who's going after, does that mean because you want people to change their minds?
Starting point is 01:45:49 You will excuse crime. You will excuse things. Well, yes. And don't tell me it doesn't because look what's happening to him now. He's asking Virginians to excuse his heartfelt. It was not a, it's not something off the top of your head. We all make those mistakes. This was something, he wasn't talking to a friend.
Starting point is 01:46:08 He was talking to somebody who said, hey, hey, man, what are you doing? I'm really uncomfortable. and he doubled down. This is something he believed deeply. And now he's just asking you to look the other way. I mean, we really are in this place where I've never seen a greater divide in America because we're now talking truly about life and death principles.
Starting point is 01:46:35 You know, that's really what we're talking about. Life and death principles. Is it okay to choose? for somebody to be killed or just to say, you know, that's the only way they're going to change their political ideology. That's called terrorism. That's what terrorism is. You create terror and it forces your opponent to change their point of view politically. You get what you want because you've terrorized them.
Starting point is 01:47:04 What is the difference between al-Qaeda and what he's suggesting to do? There's no, the planning meeting is in. planning meeting is exactly the same, except one, you end up with some virgins. That's the only difference. That's the only difference. All right. We're going to be with Eric Trump when we come back. We're from WoWO in Fort Wayne, Indiana. News Talk 1190 a.m. and 92.3 FM, WO, their 100th anniversary on radio. It's one of the first stations in America, one of our first affiliates. We are so pleased to be here at the ribbon cutting of their brand new state of the art studios in Fort Wayne.

And it is so important for us to collect history because life has changed so rapidly. So rapidly. And somewhere in your closet, there is a box. Maybe it's old and taped at the corners. Maybe it's been moved from house to house. but inside it is your life. It's a wedding dance. Your child's first steps. Maybe your first steps.
Starting point is 01:48:29 Grandparents laugh you haven't heard in years. And it's all been sitting there in this box, fading the colors, wearing down the sound, quietly turning yesterday into something very, very fragile. Well, Legacy Box was built to fix that. Legacy Box was built so you can be the historian of your family. They take your old tapes and your films and your photos. Every piece of family history.

Welcome back to the Glenn Beck program. I'm in Fort Wayne, Indiana, today celebrating Woewo's 100th anniversary. I'm back tonight for the fundraiser for the Mercury One gala tomorrow. I have to tell you, I travel quite a bit and, you know, I get usual worn out like everybody else does. And then I go to the White House. And I see this president who is, I don't know, 15 years older than me. And the guy is powering through. I mean, he had 36 hours without sleep, flying across the world, doing all kinds of stuff, meeting with
Starting point is 01:50:17 everybody, holding press conferences. He comes back. He holds a press conference, meets with Javier Malay, then does the Charlie Kirk thing. Then I'm standing in the, in the hallway of the White House, and I'm seeing all these people, the vice president going into for a meeting. And then Secretary Rubio is going in for a meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting, meeting. Then he has a two-hour phone call with Putin. I mean, when does this guy sleep? How does he do it? And that's a sincere question.
Starting point is 01:50:45 Eric Trump is with us now. He's the author of a new book called Under Siege. This is a compelling book. Everyone should have this. Anyone who says, oh, you know, look what they're doing. I want you to read Under Siege. I want you to see what the left did. to the Trump organization and the Trump family.
Starting point is 01:51:04 Eric, welcome to the program. How does your dad do this? Well, listen, the guy's incredible, right? I think I've told you this before, but I mean, he's the energizer buddy in a suit, wearing a red tie on steroids. The guy is remarkable, my entire life I've seen this. What's amazing is, you know, so many of these, you know, kind of fake news journalists that you see that, you know, that are on these kind of foreign trips with him.
Starting point is 01:51:22 You know, they were the ones 10 years ago, Glenn, you know this better than anybody. I think you reported on it better than anybody. But, you know, will Donald Trump have the stamina to be president, right? And literally, they're falling off of Air Force One. Now they slept the entire time, you know, on the way over there and on the way back. My father didn't sleep at all. He goes over there. He's in two stops in Israel.
Starting point is 01:51:40 Then he meets every world leader in Egypt. He does private meetings. He does two press conferences. He flies back to Andrews Air Force Base. Comes off, as you said, you know, I mean, meets with the whole Argentinian delegation. Does Charlie Kirk. You know, I heard from him at 1130 that night. I mean, no, the guy is absolutely remarkable.
Starting point is 01:51:55 I mean, sleep isn't one of these things that we've ever had in our gene, but the guy is beyond remarkable. He does not stop. He does not quit. He does not cower. He's a worker. That's exactly what this country needs. Has he always been, what is he, three hours, two hours of sleep a night? What does he get?
Starting point is 01:52:12 Yeah, probably three hours. I mean, yeah, he's really, have that in your family. Do the rest of you guys have this in your jeans? Yeah, well, I did a podcast live from Israel last night at 2 a.m. And I was at again this morning at 6.30. So, yeah, we've never been good sleepers in our family. And not that we're not good sleep. We just don't sleep much.
Starting point is 01:52:31 And he's one of these guys who's always been myopically focused on whatever he wanted to do at the time, right? It was real estate. He's myopically focused on a building. If it was, you know, building a golf course. If it was the apprentice, he's myopically focused on every aspect of the show, of ratings, of PR for that show. And certainly when he went to politics, it was the same thing, right? Nothing else mattered. He just, he's a laser focused on whatever he wants to achieve.
Starting point is 01:52:54 And the guy's remarkable. And right now, he is a laser focused on the success of this country. I've never seen somebody just effectively X out the distractions as well as him, you know, the temptations, the other things, and just focus solely on one mission and put every ounce of their energy and heart and soul into achieving it. He's a remarkable guy. He's my best friend in the world. And, you know, I feel that I kind of take on that same trait.
Starting point is 01:53:20 What a cool thing to say about your father that he's your best friend. Before we talk quickly about the book, the mom donnie thing. What the hell is wrong with New Yorkers? What, I mean, what is going to happen to New York if that guy wins? Well, he's going to, I hate to say this, right? I'm going to get criticized just saying that, but he's going to win. He's promising free everything to everyone. It's insane.
Starting point is 01:53:41 I mean, listen, I understand. What is it due to the economy to the rest of the United States? Yeah, of course. Well, that's what he's doing. Listen, he's talking about how he's going to raise taxes in New York. And DeSantis in Florida, where I live is talking about how he's going to get rid of all property taxes. You know, so much money has slowed into the state of Florida from, in New York. I mean, I think about the great irony there. I mean, you know, they said the top 18,500
Starting point is 01:54:04 taxpayers in New York City paid 85% of the taxes in New York City, and guess what, they're all gone. I mean, they left, and it breaks my heart because I'm a guy that loves, I love New York, but they've destroyed it. I don't know why everything needs to be a social experiment. I mean, and I understand political bravado. You probably understand political bravado better than any human being in the world. The difference is, he's on Martha McCallon yesterday on Fox News, and he literally says if Benjamin Netanyahu comes to York, he's going to arrest him. I mean, this is a major world leader. Now world leaders aren't going to want to come into New York City to the UN because out of fear of getting thrown in jail. What is this human being doing? He hates the NYPD. He wants to defund them. He hates the Indian
Starting point is 01:54:42 population. He says that Modi is a war criminal. You know, he obviously hates the Jews based on the fact that he wants to arrest, you know, Netanyahu. He wants a nationalized grocery stores. I mean, how about like safe streets, clean streets and just, you know, low taxes and let capitalism work? And New York will be the great city in the world. It's not a hard recipe. We are a nation that is so divided, going in two different directions. And I mean, we're seeing it. And if he gets in, and I think, you're right, he's going to get in. It is, it's going to be stark. What's going to happen to New York is going to be stark. And the same thing with Jay Jones, this, you know, you guys know it.
Starting point is 01:55:19 You guys have been under attack, and they've been calling your father a fascist and everything else. And then they try to kill him twice. and you know you have jones who's just he that was heartfelt that wasn't a slip of the tongue that wasn't a joke that was heartfelt some the people he was talking to tried to stop him from saying and saying don't say these things this is horrible well you got to do that the only way to make people change their political viewpoint is to cause them pain in their life you're talking about killing his children but that that's what they did under siege they wanted me gone they wanted me killed in every way, shape, or form, both physically and otherwise, I became the most
Starting point is 01:55:58 opinion in American history for doing absolutely nothing wrong. I've never gotten a speeding ticket plan, and they wanted to, they wanted me gone, they wanted me off that stage, they wanted to divide our family. That's why they made up the dirty dossiers. That's why they made up the stories about golden, you know what, the prostitutes, which are paid for by Hillary Clinton. That's why they made up the fact that we had secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower communicating with the Kremlin. That's why they threw us off of Twitter and YouTube and Instagram and Facebook. That's why they put the gag orders on our on our family. That's why they brought us into court every single day, 91 indictments. We spent $400 million defending ourselves based on BS. That's why they threw my father off
Starting point is 01:56:40 that ballots in Maine and Colorado. That's why they leaked our tax returns. Mine, my father, everybody in our family, everybody, all the executives are our company. They leaked our tax returns to the New York Times, the IRS. They raided our... home they raided Mar-a-Lago I mean where do you want me to stop they were planting classified folders on the on the floor of my father's office taking photo shoots of them and sending them to the New York Times you you you had to me you know leaking to the New York Times as FBI director every day in an effort to undermine my father they were they were spying on our campaign I
Starting point is 01:57:14 could go on for another two hours I mean those are just a couple of the obvious ones they put us under siege you they wanted to inflict harm they wanted to pain. They wanted to see us in a jail cell. They wanted to see us bankrupt. They wanted to see us voiceless. And when I say us, it's not just the Trump family. It's you. It's all of your listeners. They were weaponizing the IRS against conservative organizations, against churches, against pastors, right? I mean, they were, they implemented DEI, so so many great people mispromotions in their workplace to somebody who was far less qualified, all based on some fictitious standard. Glenn, they were coming after all of us. And that's the story of the
Starting point is 01:57:52 siege. The siege just wasn't against our family. It was against the entire conservative movement and everybody who loved God and the Constitution and the American flag and just wanted to make America great again. And that's the story of under siege. I have to tell you, I think this book is so important historically. And for anybody who has anyone in their family who is saying the things, the CNN had a Cairo on the bottom of the screen that, you know, the banner on the bottom of the screen. And it said, third Trump enemy to be indicted in 21 days. And they were making the case that Comey, James, and Bolton are all being indicted because your dad has a thing against him and just wants to, you know, politically go after
Starting point is 01:58:35 his enemies. And I saw that and I thought, who are you people that you actually believe that that if Donald Trump wanted to respond in kind, it wouldn't be with three people. I mean, this is such a small response. If it was a response and it's all being. being done by the book and they will never admit what they did to your family. That's why I think the book is called under siege. Get it. That's why it's important. But anyway, go ahead.
Starting point is 01:59:03 It was all coordinated. I mean, you know, Letitia James was going to the White House and Fannie Willis and Nathan Wade were going to the White House and, and, you know, the vice president's house. They were all going to the White House. It was all being coordinated. You know, remember when they raided Mar-a-lawgo, they said the raid was on behalf of NARA, the National Archives, which is effectively a public library in Washington, D.C. You think the public library raids Marlago, the former president's house, probably most famous house on earth, give me a break, right?
Starting point is 01:59:28 And honestly, what I would say is if you have that liberal sister, a liberal brother, a liberal family member, I hope you could give them this book and just allow them to read the first three chapters. And I think they'll say, wow, you know, regardless of where you stand on certain political issues, they would, their floor, their jaw will hit the floor because it was so fundamentally un-American. It was so wrong on every front. And I want people, and I don't want revisionist history, be able to change the narrative because you know that's exactly what they do. They're better at revisionist history than anybody in the history of the world.
Starting point is 02:00:01 Look, look at Wikipedia and look at the facts. They can't change the narrative, and it had to be documented for all time. And I think that's why this book's gone parabolic. I mean, it's number one on Amazon. It has been for the last week. It has gone absolutely viral. it is selling off the charts. And it's,
Starting point is 02:00:21 people are upset. I mean, Glenn, people are really upset and it's mainly your audience and the people who love this nation, love our flag, and love God,
Starting point is 02:00:27 and they're pissed off. They're really pissed off. In the book, you warn about the threats to liberty, and I have to tell you, if J.D. Vance or whoever doesn't win in 28, we lose control of Congress. I think the vengeance that is coming,
Starting point is 02:00:45 I mean, these are vengeful people. What should individuals do? What are you guys doing to avoid the next onslaught should that happen? You know, it's funny. It's their only playbook used to be identity politics, and that was the only playbook that they were good at. Their policy sucked, but they play with identity politics.
Starting point is 02:01:06 You're racist, right? And, you know, we picked up more African-American vote than any conservatives ever. You're anti-Semitic, which is kind of funny, considering my sister's Jewish and my father's been the greatest thing for Israel ever. You know, you're sexist, right? We heard that for years. It's kind of funny. My father's the only person who's ever had a female campaign manager, and he did it twice. both in Kellyanne Conway, who won in 2016, and obviously Susie Wiles, who won in 2024, you know, I mean, you go down the list.
Starting point is 02:01:29 You're fascist, yet they're shooting one of my close friends in the neck, you know, dressed in black from a rooftop across the heads of college kids as they exercise free speech, right? I mean, they used to be good at identity politics. Now that's all falling apart, you know. And so now what they do is because they've lost the narrative. They turn to violence. And that's why we see, you know, friends of our being shot in the neck. That's why they tried to kill my father.
Starting point is 02:01:52 know, when, when dialogue breaks down, they just turn violent. And that's why you see those text messages you saw from, you know, the AG candidate in Virginia. They know no other game other than weaponized and rigged system. We saw them rigged system in 2020. There's not a single person in this country, including Barack Obama, who thinks that Joe Biden got 16 million more votes than Barack Obama. And I'm shocked that no one's ever asked Barack Obama. Do you really believe that Joe Biden got 16 million more votes than you did in 2012? I'd love to see the reaction on his face, and I'd love to see him try and answer that because everybody knows it.
Starting point is 02:02:27 All the Democrats are good at are rigging a system. And so do I have any doubt that they're going to play their games again? Absolutely not. It's like how these people are bred. It's all they know in their genetic code. I only have about 40 seconds here for you to answer and answer if you want. If Mom Donnie wins, when Mom Donnie wins, will the Trump organization stay in New York? I mean, we've already moved to Florida.
Starting point is 02:02:50 You know, we still have offices in New York. and we have a lot of assets in New York, but I love that city. I love that state. New York is untouchable if you just had competent. If I ran New York, safe streets, clean streets, low taxes, and let capitalism do what it does best, and nothing could beat New York. No state could beat New York, no state could beat New York. But they're incapable of doing that.
Starting point is 02:03:11 Everything has to be a social experiment. Everything has to be this kind of, you know, experimental petri dish. It's such a shame and it's not going to be good for the state. Are we hearing a future headline? Eric Trump running for mayor of New York at some point? Oh, definitely not mayor of New York now. Please don't give me nightmares, please. I love the sunshine state.
Starting point is 02:03:34 I'm a Floridian, true and true. Yeah. Eric, thank you so much. Good to talk to you again. The name of the book is Under Siege. I can't recommend it highly enough. This is what everybody is arguing that Donald Trump is, you know, doing all these fascist things.
Starting point is 02:03:47 You want to know what Underseesh actually. is read under siege available wherever books are sold. Eric, thank you so much. We'll talk again. Our sponsor is real estate agents I trust. This is a company that I started with my brother, Robert. Robert and I were selling our house at the same time. And both of us, we were talking with frustration. We didn't know, you know, how do you know what a good real estate agent is? You know, I don't know. You usually get it from a friend who's like, I don't know. I had a real estate agent. They sold my house. Okay. How do you know what a good real estate agent is? Well, I started working with the 500 best real estate agents, according to the Wall Street Journal, and I learned from them. I asked them, what makes you good? What sets you apart? How do you tell? And so then Robert and I put a company together called real estate agents, I trust.com, and it is just a referral service. We went out and we found those kinds of people. We started with the 500 best, and then we just started adding to those people.
Starting point is 02:04:48 finding the best in your area. So it's a free service to you. We just give you the names. You tell us where you're moving from. And two, we'll give you the name of the person that we think is the best in the area. And then you decide. Real estate agents, I trust.com. You want your hold sold on time for the most amount of money
Starting point is 02:05:05 and somebody who actually listens and knows how to get the job done. Real estate agents.itrust.com. Real estate agents.itrust.com. Keep your powder dry and your conscience clear. this. Hey, you don't want to send your kid to college. Probably the best idea I've ever heard for young men ever on today's podcast. You can get it at the blaze.com or glenbeck.com or wherever you get your podcast tomorrow.
Starting point is 02:05:53 You do not want to miss this one if you have college kids. Stu, what else have we missed? Well, I noticed you didn't even talk about the parade. I'm sorry, the what? The big parade debate at the New York City mayoral debate yesterday when they said, Which parades will you boycott? And Curtis Slee will let it off with the fact that he's staunchly pro parade. Andrew Cuomo said he would only skip parades that discriminated.
Starting point is 02:06:24 Mamdani said he would not be attending some parades because he'd be working. Then they asked, were there any parades the city needed to add to the calendar? Mom, Donnie said, I don't know, haven't thought about a... parades. Cuomo said, I don't even know what parade doesn't exist. And Slewa said every parade has the right to exist. So there you go. There's your debate. Good luck, New York. Good luck. Good night. This is Glenn Beck.
