The Glenn Beck Program - Why Is the Pentagon Already WAR-GAMING Trump's Presidency?! | Guest: Justin Hoover | 11/11/24

Episode Date: November 11, 2024

President-elect Trump released his second video of policies he plans to implement, focusing on free speech and censorship. Is this the best policy plan from any president-elect in history? Glenn and Stu discuss how prepared Trump appears to be for his final term. Glenn and Stu discuss the role that RFK Jr. will have when it comes to America’s health. The Pentagon is holding secret meetings to war-game against the future president. Will the brass refuse to give Trump access to the nuclear football, should he ask for it? Glenn compares and contrasts the "Saturday Night Live" response after Hillary Clinton lost with now after Kamala’s loss. Will people follow through and leave the country because of Trump’s re-election? Stu exposes the Left’s fearmongering regarding Trump that led to the death of multiple vulnerable people. The Battle Within executive director Justin Hoover joins to share how we can honor our veterans by shedding light on our veterans who are fighting a silent but deadly battle.

say this is donald trump that's that's quite a standard just i want you to make a list Okay, just when he says, oh, and I'm going to do this, just make a list. Okay. This is his plan to end the censorship cartel. If we don't have free speech, then we just don't have a free country. It's as simple as that. If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one. They'll go down.

That's why today I'm announcing my plan to shatter the left-wing censorship regime and to reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans. And reclaim is a very important word in this case because they've taken it away. In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed that a sinister group of deep state bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left-wing activists and depraved corporate news media, have been conspic. inspiring to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health. The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately. And here is my plan. First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding.

with any organization, business or person to censor, limit, categorize, or impede the lawful speech of American citizens. I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as miss or disinformation. And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship directly or indirectly, whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ, no matter who they are. Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible, and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified. These include possible violations of federal civil rights law,

campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law and antitrust laws, the Hatch Act, and a host of other potential criminal, civil, regulatory, and constitutional offenses. To assist in these efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters. And we have to do this right now to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign, and every Silicon Valley tech giant, ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship. Third, upon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk, revising Section 230 to get big online platforms out of censorship business. From now on, digital platforms should only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230

if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness, and non-discrimination. We should require these platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content such as child exploitation and promoting terrorism while dramatically curtailing their power to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech. Fourth, we need to break up the entire toxic censorship industry that has arisenessing. and under the false guise of tackling so-called miss and disinformation. The federal government should immediately stop funding all nonprofits and academic programs that support this authoritarian project.

If any U.S. university is discovered to have engaged in censorship activities or election interferences in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal of blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars and federal student loan support for a period of five years and maybe more. We should also enact new laws laying out clear criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats who partner with private entities to do an end run around the Constitution and deprive Americans of their First, Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights. In other words, deprive them of their vote.

And once you lose those elections, and once you lose your borders like we have, you no longer have a country. Furthermore, to confront the problems of major platforms being infiltrated by legions of former deep-staters and intelligence officials, there should be a seven-year calling off period before any employee of the FBI, CIA, NSA, DNI, DHS, or DOD is allowed to take a job at a company possessing vast quantities of U.S. user data. Fifth, the time has finally come for Congress to pass a digital bill of rights. This should include a right to digital due process. In other words, government officials should need a court order to take down online content, not send information requests such as the FBI was sending to Twitter. Furthermore, when users of big online platforms have their content or accounts removed, throttled, shadow banned, or otherwise

restricted, no matter what name they use, they should have the right to be informed that it's happening, the right to a specific explanation of the reason why, and the right to a timely appeal. In addition, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to opt out of content, moderation and curation entirely, and receive an unmanipulated stream of information if they so choose. The fight for free speech is a matter of victory or death for America and for the survival of Western civilization itself. When I am president, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control will be ripped out of the system at large. There won't be anything left. By restoring free speech, we'll begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation. Thank you,

and God bless America. Wow. I mean, that is, the first thing that strikes me on that is just how different it was than 2016. That's not a guy who's just walking in. I don't know. Who should we pick? Like, that's somebody who has a plan. That is, that, that's one of the exciting things is, this is so detailed, even just what he said. You know there's much more. than this behind each one of these and so much thought behind all of this. This is a guy who has set there for at least the last two years, probably the last four years, going, all right, I get a second chance. What do we do? What do we do? This is the most comprehensive thing I've ever heard a Republican president ever lay out.

Now, the Democrats do it, but usually they do it in a bill of about 3,000 pages, and you just don't find out until after you're like the happy meal bill. Right. You know, and you're like, wait, is this for happy meal? You mean, like the inflation reduction act? Yeah, yeah, kind of like that. Oh, okay. I mean, look at the list. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot in there.

Yeah. Yeah. The, uh, you look going after the federal employees colluding to censor speech. And put them in jail. Taking the federal money and away from people who are who are kind of walking that line and drawing our guardrails on miss and disinformation. That's that, what was that name of that organization over in England that we helped start? Yeah, yeah. All the people, all the people that were involved in that, bye.

And I think like a lot of the people on the left and the media will take that as like, oh, he just wants to be able to say conspiracy theories and not be fact checked. And that's just not the truth is that. the federal government should have no role in that. None. It's up to, you wouldn't have a media organization. It's not going to stop ABC News from doing misinformation reporting, as dumb as it might be. No. It's just going to stop federal money going to that process, which is totally appropriate for a country that has a First Amendment.

Correct. of speech. That's a constitutional crime. And sending preservation letters so that these suits can go forward. So they're not like clearing out, deleting all these files now before he gets into office. That's tough. And that's going to be, by the way, not something he can do personally. That's going to be something senators and such. That's why he said they have to send that right away. I mean, look, all of this, I think, is good. Is there any part in there that makes you at all nervous?

There's a couple points in there that I could see going the wrong way if we're not careful, which is rewriting section 230. Yes, that could be dice. There's nothing wrong with rewriting section 230, but you just have to, you have to be careful with it. Well, what he said is as long as you have quality, high standards of neutrality. Yeah, high standards of neutrality.

You have to qualify for that. And you should ban things that are illegal, you know, child porn, terrorism, things like that. And that is theoretically already there, but we have really loose standards on these companies for enforcing it. It's basically like if you get multiple requests to take some material down and you don't, you can be in trouble. But generally speaking, they are, they don't have to take action to go get the stuff. They have to just wait for it to be reported to them. And then they have to do it after that process.

But the process, of course, is really weak, right? You have millions and millions and millions of posts going up. they would argue that it's impossible to get to all of it. Oh, well. Oh, well. Oh, no. Maybe you don't get to be as large a company. Right. Maybe, maybe, maybe, I mean, look, my, of course, fantasy here is that maybe this doesn't work within the law and the social media companies just go away. That would be tragic. That would be terrible. Now, of course, Zorin, Max Zorin of Zorin Industries, if you go back to a view to a kill, the documentary from 1985. I believe that was a James Bond movie. Actually, he advocated for explosives under the earth that would cause a earthquake that would flood all of Silicon Valley. Now, he didn't get to that, unfortunately.

I was waiting for that as one of the action steps for the new Trump administration. Didn't quite get there. But, I mean, that's just maybe that's step seven. We'll get there eventually. The digital bill of rights is so important. Yep, that was interesting. I mean, what's interesting about that is you have a right. to go without an algorithm.

Love that. And it's interesting because Europe has a digital bill of rights. I would assume it's not going to look up very much like the Trump one. But it is, first of all, there are some similarities. It's like you own your own data. That is a big part. That's the concept behind the European one. Some of those concepts you could say are good.

And I'm sure will be brought over. But also just the idea that, you know, you don't have to be manipulative. manipulated by this. Now, I, it's tough because you should be able to run a website that you won't. Yes. Right? Like the Blaze should not need to go neutral and, uh, no, but give all sorts of information from the left, right? Like, we should be able to do what we want to do with our own website. Right. Now, there's that distinction between publisher and sort of curator, uh, social network that I think will probably be the line there. But that again, the details matter on this stuff. As we've

seen over and over and over again. If you don't get that exactly right, it could be a problem. But I mean, you know, that's what the process will be for. I think the idea, first of all, you're, you're a public square now. This is where, this is where people, I know, but it's digital. I hate the public square argument. It's digital now. I know.

Nobody gets on their soapbox and we're walking in our town square and we see somebody stand up and say, I want to give a speech. If you want a town square, then, you know, then it's like, then make. a town square. These are companies that have spent their own money on this stuff. I understand. I just feel like they should be, look, there's a lot here that I understand and I think is a good thing. Making essentially, just turning giant private companies into

utilities makes me very nervous. No, I'm not saying. Should Elon Musk have to deal with all that? No, I bought the company. No, no, no. If he, I mean, when is the next the next government, the next time the Democrats get in control and they take this public square and they make their own rules with it, makes me really nervous. I get what he's saying. I think we'll be able to walk this line, but let's be honest that we have to walk a line here and just be

careful here. I agree with that. But you have things like an algorithm. You have a right to unmask. I don't have a right to necessarily know their algorithm. Yeah. But I do have a right to say, you know what, I don't want you filtering stuff. Why don't you have a right to do that? And this is the sort of thing that they should have just done. Yeah, it is. You know, it wouldn't. have been an issue if they just did it.

It would have been easy. They should have just had an off button, but they couldn't bring themselves to do that because they wanted, A, money, and B, to control the public opinion. How many people will their eyes be opened if you have that? And you just say, just unmask it. Just unmask it for a week. See what you see. It'd be pretty amazing.

Yeah. All right. Let me tell you about Linda. She wrote in about her dog's experience. By the way, happy Veterans Day. She wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Green. She said Lucy just had her 11th birthday in September. You know, since trying Rough Green, she now waits impatiently for her meals.

She initiates playing with her Frisbee, something she hadn't done in years. And she's like, my walking partner again. It's the clock turning back on her. Thank you so much for Rough Greens. Linda, thanks for having your dog try out Rough Greens. And thanks for writing in. There is nothing like seeing your dog's health improve. Rough Greens is not a dog food.

Roughgreens.com slash Beck. 10 seconds, station ID. So, the president just released the name of who he wants as UN ambassador. Yeah,

this is Stefanik. Yes, at least Stefanik. Thank you very much. This is an interesting pick because I think number one she'll probably be pretty good at this job. She did an excellent job. She's been all over the anti-Semitism stuff.

She's not going to back down from all of these countries who are constantly going after the United States and constantly going after Israel and other allies. She's good from that perspective. And one of the things she was talked about as a potential VP pick, and it was like, well, you really haven't seen the full breadth of who she is. And this is an interesting place for her. obviously it led to running for president eventually for Nikki Haley, who obviously didn't win, but was, you know, in the final three or four people. It's only because Hispanic man don't like women. There you go. You don't like strong women.

That's why he keeps doing this over and over. He hates strong women. He just named a woman for the first time ever as the chief of staff in the White House. Another interesting thing. And now a second woman, he's nominated to kind of an important role at the U.S. When. Yeah. Now, the only thing I don't like about this is, uh, isn't she from a Democratic state

with a Democratic governor who's going to just put a Democrat into Congress? The house. Yeah, this is interesting because it looks as of right now that the Republicans will get the house. I think, I mean, my, I've been, you know, obsessing over all this stuff over the weekend too much. But it seems like they're going to clear 218. They basically have cleared 218.

They probably will get to two, two, two, two. 20-ish. Now, if you remove a Republican from the House, you obviously lose one of those seats. Now, she's in a pretty safe district in a blue state. She, you know, but you're going to have a period where she's not there and you have to wait for that next special election to occur to put somebody in that position. So you're going to have months. Does he get to a point? Doesn't he? Or is that just for senators? Yeah, senators would be the governor of the state would appoint. And this, this would be a special election, which a Republican will likely win. Yes. But that being said, you have months where there's no one in that seat. Right. And that does play with your majorities a little bit. It's the beginning of playing with your majorities. There's not a big room for error there. No, there's really not.

Bet you didn't expect that this was going to be the day that you would drop thousands of dollars because something went wrong with your car, right?

He said, I'm not using, I'm even read it. We're doing our own thing. 2025. Yeah, it was the Heritage Foundation. And it's pretty clear.

It's pretty clear. He did his own thing. Yeah, I think quite clear. It was ready to go too. The interesting part about 2024 as opposed to 2016 or 2016 for Trump is, You can tell he actually thought he was winning this. Like this is, you remember we thought he was kind of like, whoa, hang on. There was a lot of reporting from people who are allies of Trump who said, like, going into that,

they just kind of thought they were going to lose in 2016. They weren't particularly prepared to go forward with everything ready. Now, you know, Trump says that there's, it's not that as accurate as some have said. But the bottom line is I think you watched going into 2016. It was a struggle to figure out who he was going to bring into the administration. and he's talked about how he didn't know anybody he was trying to find this all out as he was going this is a totally different world and for all the this is sort of what they built the scare mongering against Trump like they that was the effort of the left to say this time he's prepared this time

he knows what he's doing this is going to be terrible well it's also the opposite if you like his policies it's really good yeah and I really like it so far everything he's saying although please pray for his protection I mean, he is taking on every powerful person in the West, every single one. And then throw on Iran, North Korea, and Putin. It's going to be a lot. It's going to be a lot. It's going to be a lot.

He also announced this over the weekend. Cut four. Seventh, I will protect the right of self-defense everywhere it is under siege. And I will sign concealed. carry reciprocity. Your Second Amendment does not end at the state line. I like that. Now, that would be a law. He said sign, right? So that would that would be a law. Yeah, yeah. But he'd have to get that. That would be tough to get through Congress. But I wouldn't think. Not if you, not if you control House and Senate. I mean, there might be. I mean, I don't know how California,

California would lose their mind. It might be worth doing just for that. Just for that. Just to watch Gabby. Could you see that Gavin Newsom, like, wants a special session of California. Congress to lock in all the liberal policies before Trump takes over, which is fascinating because a lot of those things were on the ballot. Like those liberal crime policies were on the ballot in California and were just slaughtered by Californians who were like no more of this. And then Gavin Newsom, who quite clearly, this is a move for him to run in 2028, he wants to lock that stuff in.

He wants to double, triple, quadruple down on those same terrible policies that have failed. the people of California. Well, then you'll need your, you'll need to fly out to Texas, live here for a while, get your gun permit, and then go ahead and go out to California. Maybe commute, but you're going to need your gun in California. How does this work? How does that policy like this work? So like reciprocity is if I live in Texas, there is like, I don't know, 40 states,

45 states, where my gun permit from Texas is good in all of them. those other states. So if I'm pulled over carrying a gun in Idaho, I don't have to have an Idaho concealed carry. Right. Okay. And so what this means, and you have to be very careful as a gun owner, do I have these rights in this state? Oh, I'm terrified. I, we've talked about that before, where I just, I lived a block away from New Jersey. I lived in Pennsylvania. And you cross this bridge all the time to get gas, right? But if you have your gun in your car, you might wind up in prison for multiple years. Oh, yeah.

Even though you're not breaking the law at all in Pennsylvania, you take one wrong turn. You go over the bridge one day. There's a road closing and all of a sudden you're criminal. It was scary in New York. Yeah. It was really scary there because he'll put you away for 20 years. But what he's suggesting, and I'm not sure this is a federal right or a state right, this might fall under the 10th.

This will be an interesting one. Yeah, this would be interesting because I'm not sure they can do this. You know what I mean? I'm for it. but I don't want to do anything to weaken the Constitution on this. But what he's saying is passing a law that says you get your gun license to conceal carry in any state, in Texas or wherever. Congratulations, you can carry it in New York City. What?

Can you imagine that? Imagine how much they'd freak out over that? Oh, they would freak out. People freak out when they come to Texas. Everybody here has a gun. Yeah, yeah, they do. And you notice we're not killing each other. Hmm.

What's up all that? It's so crazy. Yeah, that's obviously something that I would favor generally. It depends. A lot of this is interesting, too, in that he's outlining the principle, right? He's outlining this is what we're going for. And the details will be important, A, as to whether it's effective or not, right? Because, you know, there's going to be all sorts of swarmy people that are going to try to water the

stuff down so it's not effective, that he gets the thing he wants and tries to, they try to essentially trick him into making it less effective. That happened a lot in his first term, where he would ask for things and they would do them in a way that sort of checked the box but didn't actually work. So that's going to be another thing he's going to have to fight, and he's got a lot of people around him to fight that battle. And the second thing, of course, there are constitutional concerns if you go too far on this stuff, not necessarily with the Second Amendment because it's already in the Constitution. Right.

But federalism, of course, is important as well. Right. And this is something that the left will never give anybody credit for. I don't want to steamroll the Constitution. They will. If Donald Trump said, we're going to pack the court, I'd be against it. You know, I know, we'd be, I mean, I would hang up my career on that one. We're not packing the Supreme Court.

The left just, they just steamroll past these things. They don't really care. The ones who are constitutional conservatives, like I am, truly care about all of the Bill of Rights. Every word in the Bill of Rights and the way the Constitution is written. I care about every word in there. If it's constitutional, great. If it's not, no, we're not doing it. No matter how much we want it, we're not doing it.

Yeah, and I think a lot of this is approach, right? Like, I think a lot of people would agree that we have issues with our food system, right? And problems with that. But in addition to that, I don't necessarily want my central government to make me healthy. Right? Like, that's not necessarily what I want out of them. I don't want them to ban fruit loops because they don't like them. Right.

I like fruit loops. Yeah, I don't think they're not. Right. They're not talking on fruit loops. They're not talking about banning fruit loops. They're saying the other countries don't put these dangerous chemicals in them and they taste the same. First of all, no, this is nonsense.

I mean, like, the stuff that they're saying, like, we had a clip the other day on your show where they're like, RFK Jr. is like, did you know in Canada they have three ingredients in fruit loops? No, they don't. Look at the, look at the freaking label. They got way more ingredients than three. There are a couple of agreements that are different. And look, you can argue whether you think they're dangerous or not. I'm not concerned about it. Others are. He is saying, but his point is, because I did a show on this. Yeah. His point was it's not just that that one dangerous thing is in fruit loops. it's in everything. And that's a, look, that may be correct. Yes.

It may be the thing that makes RFK Jr. look like the buff 72-year-old man he is. Right. That being said, he doesn't get to make all of the decisions. No, I don't want to do. And I don't think Trump does either. No. Especially a guy who likes McDonald's.

Right. He's more me than RFK Jr. So I think what he's asking for is what are the regulatory. I think Trump is just an anti-regulation guy. He wants to free up all the regulations that are nonsense. So I think he's asking RFK to go in. Notice he's not in charge. He's just a consultant.

And that's fine. That's great. And so I think that's because Trump is like, I want to know who to fire. I want to break the back of this pharmaceutical love fest with the government and the FDA. And I want to know recommendations of what regulations should be put on and should be put on and should. be taken away. I think that's what he's doing. He's not saying, hey, you know what? You tell us what to eat. Right. How much meat should we have? And I think, look, RFK Jr. absolutely wants to tell you what to eat, right? Well, yeah, but Trump doesn't. And that's what's going to be an interesting part of this process. Because you might agree or disagree with, with a lot of these ideas. How are they going to be instituted, right? Are they instituted with the respect to the Constitution that we all think so? I think the answer to this is going to be, you know,

Yes, it's just going to be a road that all of us are going to have to just make sure we're looking at, including and most centrally Trump and the people around Trump. I think that's what we're going to get. And I just want to make sure that we're looking for all of that as we go. So it's things like this on the milk thing. What is it called the regular non-pasteurized milk? Raw milk. So raw milk. I saw this, I don't remember what it was.

But they were talking to these farmers and Amish people. And the Amish guys were like, Jebediah here has been milking this cow forever. And we just make sure the teeth are clean. And you're like, okay, all right. And this. What accent was that? I don't know. Okay.

This Amish guy says, look, pasteurizing your milk, that's an 18th century solution for the 21st century. Why are we doing that? And I'm like, wait, you don't have a car. You're in a horse and buggy. You should probably think that one through all the way, not just on pasteurization. But it's true. It came from people not washing the cattle down. And you can have restrictions on how that cow is milked instead of taking out all of the good things.

Yeah, like the raw milk thing strikes me as a good version. of this idea where what you're saying is, if people want raw milk, let them have it. A bad version of this was only raw milk exists. Like you were banning pasteurization, right? Like that would be a bad thing. And like he, you know, like RFK Jr., many people in that movement might totally think that the pasteurization process is bad.

I just think that people should be able to make their own decisions on it. And I think that's what I think that's where we'll end up. I think that he's not going to ban. Right. You know, he's not going to. Of course not. No, and he's not going to ban, you know, electric cars. Right.

He's going to back to, I mean, if anything. I'm going to stop giving money to that, and we're going to stop this nonsense that that's where we're going to be in five years. And that'll be an interesting one to play out, too, because as we've seen with Tesla stock, a friend of mine has a bunch of it, and he's like, we're up 30% this week. Wow. I mean, Elon being so close to Trump and being so connected to this effort, obviously you'd assume that there's not going to be any anti-

you know, electric car legislation. I've talked to him about it. He said I don't like the electric car. Some people like it. I don't like it. And we're not going to just, we're not going to force people to buy them. And that's great. That's fantastic. Right. And I don't think

they should be banned or anything like that. I don't think Elon Musk wants more government money necessarily programs. I don't think he needs it, so I don't think we should ever give it to him. We shouldn't give it to him in the first place. I agree. And he said that, by the way. He said, you know, that he does not agree with those policies.

Right. But he said, it's like Trump with the taxes. You don't want me to have it. Then stop offering it. Right. Right. Stop giving it to all my competitors. I have to take it. If they're taking it. And he's right. You want me to pay higher taxes? Pass a law.

Or don't. Or don't. Or don't. Or don't. Yeah. Don't. So that'll be interesting to see. It's going to be fascinating because these are ideas people have talked about for a long time. Like, a school choice is another interesting one for me. I can't wait until he takes on. I can't wait to see these videos. They're all made in the same place. So I think he's taken, he's just taken in chunks. And better than a 45 minute speech of like things that everyone's going to forget.

Yeah. Boil it down. He's doing them all in five or six minutes. All in categories. I mean, it's really sharp. This is going to be really really fascinating to watch play out. Yeah, and probably a little dangerous. Probably a little dangerous. Back in just a second, what actually matters today?

We're glad you're here, soon to be released. The Home for Christmas album with the Czech Symphony Orchestra. it's really, really good. Listen to it for the first time as an album. They just finished all the mixing and everything else.

Listen to it first time as an album instead of just separate tracks. It's unbelievable. Great. I don't know how clear you've been about this, but like you produced this album and that I've heard said. But like, you know, it's your daughter. Yes. I think maybe you haven't said that because you just wanted to stay on its own merits, which I understand.

But like she's incredibly talented. I know. But everybody, you know, when you say that, everybody would be like, oh, it's just a daughter, father, daughter. First of all, that's awesome. It is awesome. I love that. Right.

Like, I want that in my life. Right. I want my kid when they're older. I want to work. Like, I want to be around them. Like, I think that's awesome. It's really fun. Yeah, it's the only thing I kind of like about LeBron James.

Like, you know, like everyone's killing it because he, you know, basically forced the Lakers to draft his son. And it's like, you know, okay. I get that it's a little bit weird. But on the other hand, I kind of like, is he good? He's obviously good. The question is, is he great, which you need to be to get into the NBA? And no, he's probably, like, it was, they overdrafted him. But like, I don't know.

At the other hand, it's like, what are you going to do with that pick? You're going to get somebody who might play four minutes a game? I mean, you know, Bronny James might be terrible, but he's got some good lineage. And if it keeps his dad on the team for an extra year, it's obviously worth the pick. That being said, I just like the fact that he's the only thing. I like about him. He seems like a good, like he's a good daddy loves his kid. And I don't know. I mean, that doesn't always lead to good

things. In this case, though, an incredible Christmas album. Just from one of the bits and pieces they've heard it are amazing. I love the fact that Stu, when he first heard some of it, he like had his mouth open the whole time. Like, how is this an offspring of yours? What is happening here? I'm supportive.

We have to still stand up for what we believe in. We had a great week last week, but now we're starting to see things like the Pentagon. They're having secret meetings at the Pentagon. Think of this. Secret meetings at the Pentagon to discuss what do they do if he starts to order illegal things? Well, if he starts, you don't do them.

That's clear. We've always known that. But they're talking about how can we thwart him if he orders a nuclear missile strike? Well, constitutionally, you can't. And were you having those meetings about the guy who is eating pudding every day at 4 o'clock and going 99? No, I don't think so.

You cannot thwart the president of the United States, but they're doing it again. We start there in just a few minutes. I don't want to get out over my skis or anything, but I think it's safe to at least hope that the housing market is going to continue to improve now that the big, mean, orange bigot is going to be back in office. I mean, you might be a little more likely to be thinking about moving over the next four years. and for that, you're going to need a real estate agent. And I'm not talking about Sam Amateur, who does it on the weekends. I mean a serious person, an adult in the room, if you will. My company, real estate agents I trust, can pair you up with such an agent.

None of these agents work for us. We just seriously, seriously vet them on best practices and everything else. We watch and monitor every sale and transaction that they make to make sure that everybody is happy at the end, because we want you to have a serious, smart, hardworking, and honest real estate agent. Well, now you can. You just tell us where you're moving to and from, whether it's across the street or across the country, and we'll help you find the right real estate agent.

It's real estate agents, I trust.com. Real estate agents, I trust.com. So listen to this from CNN. Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active duty. troops domestically. He's not going to do that. He might call out the National Guard with the permission of the state, the governor. I mean, that's what he did last time. And fire large swaths of apolitical staffers. Well, I think he could do that. I could see that happening. Trump has

suggested he would be open to using active duty forces for domestic law enforcement. He's talking in case of mass riots all over the country and mass deportations. Wait a minute. Why is the Pentagon involved in mass deportations? What? Why are they discussing this? He has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and clean out the corrupt actors in the U.S. National Security establishment. I don't know about you. I'm for non-corrupt actors, you know, to be in our government corrupt actors to be nowhere in our government. Trump and his last turn had a fraught relationship with much of his senior military leadership, including now retired General Mark Millie, who took steps to limit Trump's ability to use

nuclear weapons while he was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. First of all, let me just say this. If you were worried at all about Donald Trump using nuclear weapons, you haven't heard a thing he said. Second, you need to read a nuclear war by, what's her name, Stu? Annie Jacobson. You need to read nuclear war by Annie Jacobson. It is terrifying.

Donald Trump has read it. Donald Trump knows it inside and out. Donald Trump has said over and over and over again, why is no one talking about the use of nuclear weapons? That can never happen. There's no way to win. and it will destroy all life on the planet. He gets the use of nuclear weapons.

So why is the Pentagon trying to limit his use of nuclear weapons? If he ever asks for the football, it is your constitutional duty to give it to him. Now, if you think he's impaired, that's when the 25th Amendment comes in. But no one, this is a civilian-run military. You don't have the right to subvert the president of the United States. That's not honoring the Constitution. There's no right for you to do that.

None. None. The cabinet can, but you can't. In fact, in Annie Jacobson's book, it's a little terrifying because you realize no man can make this decision in six minutes. and you actually only have about two once you have all the information. There's nobody that could make this decision wisely and completely. Nobody. I mean, this is what Gorbachev and Reagan came to.

They both actually looked at it, both talked about it and said that we can never fight this, because we'll both lose. Everybody will lose. And that's where Donald Trump is. So thank you, Mark Millie, for limiting Trump's ability to use nuclear weapons. God. The President-elect, meanwhile, has repeatedly called U.S. military generals

woke, weak, and ineffective leaders. You disagree with any of that? The Pentagon leadership, woke, weak, and ineffective leaders. Now, I want ineffective leaders. Especially woke ones. I want woke. It's obvious these are things that are not always easy to figure out. right but if you know who they are you get them out of there immediately this is pretty easy to figure

out with the string of successes they've given us here in the last four years right you just got to find people the right people to replace them correct not always easy and by the way certainly the goal you should be they're saying you can't let him you can't let him do this to the military excuse me what did Biden do the first few days in office he told the military to stand down worldwide. He shut them down so they could do a witch hunt. So they could find out who's naughty, who's nice, who's voted for Trump, who says popular things about Trump and who says who's on our side? And they fired those people. Yeah. And there's some questions on some of the stuff as to how far executive power reaches. The commander in chief of the military indicates he has the right to do these

types of things. Yes. Pretty clearly. And I'm sorry, the mandate that he just got also tells us he has the right to do this. Now, I'm not for him getting a bunch of zombies in there going, yes, Donald Trump. That's not what he's looking for. That's not what I'm looking for. Remember, this is a guy who doesn't want war. My gosh, the left should be all for this guy. Anyway, we're all preparing and planning for the worst case scenario.

But the reality is we don't know how this is going to play out yet. They are wargaming the next president of the United States. Think about that. The Pentagon is having secret meetings wargaming what they'll do against Donald Trump. That just in and of itself, all of those people should be fired. Troops are compelled by law to disobey on lawful orders. Yes. I remind the troops all the time.

Every time I'm with troops, I always say, thank you for your service, blah, blah, blah. Remember, you serve the Constitution. Not a man, the Constitution. And I stand by that today, even with Donald Trump getting in. Of course. You honor the Constitution. Troops are compelled by law to disobey,

but the question is, what happens then? Do we see resignations from senior military leaders, or will they view that as abandoning their people? I don't think your people. nobody nobody that I know that's down the fighting men and women nobody thinks that the people at the very top are their people they just don't those are career they're politicians in military outfits that's all they are that's all they are and they know it let's see have we seen bitcoin this morning what is bitcoin up to last I said it was 82,000 crowd part sorry my apologies 83 thousand. Wow. 83. I mean, that is amazing. By the way, you could have bought it for about three or four thousand during the beginning of COVID. So I remember Glenn the time when this office was

buzzing constantly with what wound up being a quote unquote bubble of 19,000. Yeah. And that was in 2017. It's not going to come back. It's never going to get higher than that. You look at the entire chart of Bitcoin now and that little that bubble that was end you know that was the game ender this is it it's popped it's going to zero every freaking media institution had a hundred articles about how it was over and now and then it rose again and you had the FTX situation happened and again it was all over and we had to read article after article after article now 83,000 every single person in history that bought Bitts. Bitcoin and has held on to it is now in the green.

By the way, January 23rd of this year, it was $38,505. Gosh, this year. This year, 38,505. Incredible. I mean, it is, I mean, and you know what? Incredible. You know what this is? The government of the United States under Donald Trump, him saying, I'm not going to be hostile to you.

I won't be hostile. Yep. I'm not, I'm not going to try. to put you out of business. In fact, the government is going to now get hostile on the idea of a Fed coin. We're not going to let the Federal Reserve do a currency. No, no more. No more. There's no Fed coin that is going to happen. And he wants a constitutional amendment, but he'll at least pass laws that say they cannot do that. That's what's giving people confidence. It's not the free market. It's the fact.

that the free market is there's hope that it actually works now that people can buy what they want to buy and not fear the government coming in and shutting it all down yeah and trump has talked about when the u.s government comes in contact with bitcoin it doesn't just pump it out to the market when they have about 200 000 from why would they do that right hold it have a bitcoin reserve uh certainly el salvador has done this to great effect we should take we should take we spend billions of dollars and we don't I mean we just you know hand out hey I got I just found the six billion dollar check in my oh I left it in my suit I sent it out to dry cleaning they just pinned it to my suit so I didn't forget I had six billion dollars here why don't you take that

for your little war what I know okay we find that money why have we not taken 10 billion dollars and just funneled it all into Bitcoin and put it in the treasury why We've only taken $50 billion. Right. And then hold it. We have $12 billion. Actually, I should say with the new prices, $16 billion of Bitcoin currently in U.S. possession from various investigations, Silk Road being one of the big ones, but various investigations. And we come in contact with it often.

When there's an investigation, some drug dealer has some Bitcoin, comes into the U.S. possession. We should buy it. Trump is just saying, hold it. When it don't, the current policy of the U.S. is just when the investigation is finally wrapped up to just dump it into the market. there's no reason to do that. Why not hold it? And, you know, this is the type of thing that one of the reasons why we were, we talked about this so long ago, Glenn, was because it undermines the ability for the U.S. government to constantly print cash forever, right? It undermines that.

And if you are, if you were worried about that in the future, having a policy where you can offset it a little bit is good thing. Good thing, good positive thing. You want to keep that out of, you don't want to constantly weaken yourself. This is a way to strengthen your foundations. And of course, so far, people like Elizabeth Warren have been influencing that policy. Now, the Democrats did come around a little bit to this. They really, I guess I don't know if they wanted crypto money. They actually, some of them were-

I think they wanted all the money. Well, they wanted all the money. And there's a lot in crypto. But can you imagine how annoyed Elizabeth Warren is today? That makes me just feel so good. A lot of this stuff makes me feel so good. You know, it also makes me happy. is the fact that they spent a billion dollars

and now they're 20 million in debt her campaign. How is that possible? How is it possible? How is it possible? My favorite part of this, Glenn, my favorite part of this, is picturing the maxed-out Kamala Harris donor. Someone's like, you know what?

Democracy's on the line. Hitler's coming into office. I'm putting my full $3,500. behind Kamala Harris taking that step. You're a maxed out donor. You're going to get campaign literature to the end of time from every candidate from now on. But you're taking that stand. And you know what you accomplished?

You paid for one one hundredth of the set that she used to film a sex podcast appearance. That was what your big moment of becoming a maxed out donor paid for like, one letter in the sign behind her as she filmed a sex podcast. Why would she... Oh, I love it. Why did they build the set for the sex podcast? Why would they do that? Because she wanted to do it in a hotel, apparently.

Now, this is something that people do, as you know. Like, sometimes they don't want... You want to go go get a separate studio. You don't want to go across town with all your people. You don't ever spend that kind of money. No. Ever. Nobody does that. No.

They gave Harpo a million dollars. Do you know that? Yes. A million dollars to Harpo, that's Oprah's production company. Yeah. Because she produced some of these events, apparently. Which is great. You know, I've produced interviews with him.

With Trump, we didn't get paid. In fact, I would feel dirty if I had gotten paid for that. Especially if it was something important to you. Yeah. Right? Like if you were saving. democracy from Hitler. Right.

Like you'd say, actually, let me, we're donating all of our time. If I'm endorsing a candidate, like Donald Trump, I mean, this, while I didn't make a financial contribution, the money that this damn election cost me is I bleed. It's I bleed. But that was my, and that was my choice. I was like, well, you know, if I. I want it done. I'm going to have pay for it.

Let's go. Yeah. Let's do it. None of these people did. I know. Beyonce. I love it. I love it.

Bruce Springsteen. They all made a million dollars for walking on the stage. I love it so much. I can't even describe how much I love the fact that these celebrities built this campaign out of all this money. I love it. They are so shallow. Keep doing it. You know, there was a clip going around, which was a, I don't know, seven or eight minute, a synopsis.

edited down of MSNBC's election night, which was really fun to watch because there's this incredible optimism. I will. Incredible optimism at the beginning. Rachel Maddow, by the well, Rachel Maddow is the anchor of their election coverage, apparently. It's incredible. Like, she is a obvious conspiracy theorist. At the very least, you could say, she's a hardcore liberal nut job. Like, that is, and it's not, no journalist.

Imagine me, if I would have anchored. the election night for Fox. Right. Like they would go. No. They put Brett Bear in that role, right? Like they begin. So anyway, they're doing this whole thing.

And at one point, Joy Reed goes on this rant about how it was a perfect, flawless campaign that she actually ran the pot. And she goes, her evidence for this is she has Beyonce. She has Taylor Swift. She has the Swifties and the Beehive. Like, that's it. She just stops. Like, that's the perfect campaign. The Swifties and the Beehive.

I hesitate to say something positive here, but I think it was better. And they had Bill Burr on as well. Yeah. And who is very, very, very funny. And he hit both sides. Yeah. He hit both sides.

Propaganda War is new book by Glenn Beck, available wherever you get your books,

or at glens's newbook.com. The year was 2016. The election has just been lost to Donald J. Trump. Hillary Clinton didn't even show up. I mean, this is exactly the same thing. She left her supporters in the lurch. Then Saturday, Saturday Night Live comes on, and this is their opening sketch. I heard there was a secret cord that David played and it pleased the Lord, but you don't really care from you. Hey, so far no laughs. That's McKenna, whatever name is, dressed as Hillary Clinton, looking like Hillary Clinton, just playing the piano.

I mean, and it goes on. Like, okay, you just stop. There's no humor to it at all. And then they're like, from New York, it's Saturday night. What is that? All right. This is what they did this time. To many people, including many people watching this show right now,

the results were shocking and even horrifying. Donald Trump, who tried to forcibly overturn the results of the last election, was returned to office by an overwhelming majority. This is the same Donald Trump who openly called for vengeance against his political enemies. And that is why we at SNL would like to say to Donald Trump, we have been with you all along. We have never wavered in our support of you, even when others doubted you. Every single person on this stage believed in you.

Every single person on this stage voted for you. Because we see ourselves. and you. We look at you and think, that's me. That's the man I want my future children to look up to. And Mr. Trump, Your Honor, we know that you say things that are controversial sometimes, but really you're just speaking the truth. And I hate how the lame stream media, Michael Che,

tries to spin it to make you look foolish. So if you're keeping some sort of list of your enemies, then we should not be on that list. I mean, it's not the greatest sketch of all time, but at least they attempted to have fun with it. Some humor. Right. Yeah, at least it wasn't coming out and playing the piano and dirge.

You know, that was a funeral. Yeah. It was a funeral. And that's how they felt. So then Bill Burr came out and he was funny as usual. And hit both sides, which, fine. I'm totally cool with I don't care if you hit both sides

It's why the Simpsons How do they not know this? This is why the Simpsons are so popular Because you know if they're hitting one side They're going to hit the other just as hard Hello? Is anybody listening? So maybe comedy is back

Yeah, because it seems like in 2016 They felt it seemed like this Once in a Lifetime mistake to them Right like this is I can't believe this happened And I think like when he gets elected a second time, you just kind of have to be like, oh, it's kind of just like your reality. Like whatever world you think exists doesn't exist.

The 20s, the whatever world, an SNL comedian is surrounded by on a daily basis is not a real world. No. It's a very small part of a real world. Yeah. But it is not real. It's not real life. Well. Maybe they're understanding that a little bit.

Well, I mean, it's very real. Once you have women saying they're not. They're not going to have sex with men for four years now. Yeah. Yeah. Then it gets real fast, Stu. Does it? Real fast.

Yeah. Yeah. I want to know, is anyone in this listening audience is your husband or wife saying that to you? I'd like to talk to you. I can't imagine. Can you? No. No.

That's not right. I feel like we do get into this world. will we highlight the craziest people on the internet and make them into stories. And like, I think that's only insane people are doing that, right? Hang on just a second. We have, wow, Candy is on the phone. Hello, Candy. Candie?

How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm very, very well. And I heard you ask for people who have refused to have sex after this Trump. This Trump, Hitler man, has been. elected or selected to be president of the United States. Okay, so are you married candy?

I am not. You're not. Surprise. And so you've sworn off sex. I have. I've sworn off sex. No more candy for you. None of my sweet treats coming your way.

That's good. Yeah. I mean, people, you know, you people look at me all. the time I see them look at me up and down as I walk down the street. I bet. And they're seeing, they're looking at it and say, look at that, look at that thing. And I see, I know what they mean. Yeah.

Yeah. It's, you know, a lot of times they'll walk up to me and they'll say, oh, yeah, look at, look at that. And then they'll say, they'll say, hey, baby. And then they'll be in the other direction quickly. Right. And I take that as they just are so turned on. They can't resist. They don't want to embarrass themselves.

Right. So because of Trump, you're not, you've, you've started not having sex with any of them. Well, I've up, I've up my game. What do you mean you've up this game? Because of Trump. What do you mean? You've up your game. Well, I've, I've been sexless since 1992-ish.

Ninety-two-ish. Yeah, well, let's see. It was 80. Yeah. 90, well, it was more like night. Well, 92 is when I stopped having sex, but that was because people didn't want to have sex with me at that time. But I gave it all up. I withheld it from the men starting in about 1995.

So, Candy, you know how people say that men are only interested in sex? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And that makes women just objects. But that's what they say, yeah. Yeah, that's what they say. Well, wouldn't you be kind of confirming?

that by holding sex back? Isn't that you saying I'm nothing but a sex object? I'm just acknowledging the reality. People want me. They want me sexually. Have you seen some of the ladies online that are...

I've seen, oh yeah, they're very, very attractive. Look, I'm not going to say I'm a perfect 10. Right. What are you? I'm more like an 8.8 out of 100. Really? I think that... How are you scoring the...

Eight. Eight. Eight way out of a hundred. Just like the normal scrolling. Eight out of a lot. Scoring. I didn't realize there was 92 other choices. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. There's a lot of them up there. Wow. But I said, I'm not going to give you this. Ever since they nominated that hate monger. Right. Bob Dole. Wait.

I was like, I'm out. You're Bob. No more. Right. No more sense for you. Right, because Bob Dole. This is a. dual-related protest that I will not give up on.

Now, this isn't just happening because you're hideously ugly. How dare you? I know, I'm sorry. I'm only, I'm just asking. You should see what I'm wearing right now. Do you want to hear? Not really. That's good because I think it would repulse the audience.

We'd have no listeners left. So I'll hold it back. Okay, all right. I'll hold it back. All right. I will say there's some very, this velvet. I'm wearing some velvet. You're wearing velvet.

Red velvet. Red velvet. What I'm saying is I'm currently covered in cake. That's what I'm saying to you. Oh, so stupid. Okay. It's good. We have a good diverse audience and that's, this is important in this show.

If you're a veteran, thank you. thank you for everything that you have done for us and our freedom. Thank you for the fight of the fight that you fought.

And everything happens for a reason. There's a reason you fought and came home with all of those skills. Bless you and thank you. All right, let me play this. This is from a CNN appearance. This is the former communications director. director for Kamala Harris. Cut one. He is looking for. That is my question. I'll start with you.

Joe Biden's been a phenomenal president. He's lived up to so many of the promises he's made. There's one promise left that he could fulfill being a transitional figure. He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris, the president of the United States. It would absolve him from being able to have, from having to oversee the January 6th transition, right, of her own defeat. And it would make sure that it would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public we want to see is the time. This is the moment for us to change the entire perspective

of how Democrats operate. Okay, this is now... What is the argument? I don't understand. He said because then she avoids the transition. So she's not certifying the results on January 6th. Someone else would. But of course, we wouldn't have it.

Yes. She'd have to pick a VP. Yeah. I guess in that period. That whole situation's bizarre. but then also that because it creates drama and people are going to be talking about it. Like what? I mean, it would, I will say, be the perfect end to the Kamala Harris era.

She's now gifted not only the vice presidency and the nomination, but also gifted the presidency. Like that should be how her story ends. Well, not ends because I expect her to win the Nobel Prize. If she becomes president, she needs to win the Nobel Peace Prize. That's true. You know what I mean? Agreed. But how empty is it?

that. You know, she'd be the first female black president. Not really. Not really. Not one that anybody voted for. There's no merit in that. And she oversaw what? Thirty days? Yeah. Because I think you could see, you know,

I've played with this theory a little bit myself. Like you could see where like they could claim they'd have the first, you know, black female president. But like I don't think it means anything, right? Like a couple of times when there have been senators that have stepped down Republicans have, you know, nominated figures or even Democrats are nominated figures. And they're like, oh, well, this person is the ex, you know, first, second, third, black nominee to this position.

Like, no one, they don't get credit for that. Yeah. People see through that. It's like, it's like the nomination for the first, um, uh, chief of staff in the White House being a woman. Yeah. Donald Trump just made that. Nobody cares. Now, that's a real one, though.

That's a real one. That's not. No, I know. But nobody. I know, but nobody cares. Yeah, I don't. I mean, I think some people might care when it's real, but it's not real. Like, this is so, like, this would be a perfect ending to the idea that the Democrats are the party of democracy.

Wouldn't it? I kind of want them to do it just for that reason. I will say my, my wife has purchased many, many pieces of merchandise that say 45, 47, which would ruin all of that because he would be the 48th president when he takes office. Wouldn't that be amazing? It would screw all of us up if you happen to buy that stuff. Well, if you remember the Ezra Eagle prophecy thing, we did a show on that a few, what, a couple months ago maybe, he has to step down or be removed from office for some reason or another,

and she would have to take over for that even to be a possibility. Okay, yeah, yeah. So all of the things so far have led you to believe, oh yeah, that's the, Ezra is eagle from the apocrypha. It's that, you know, that scripture from the apocrypha, it looks like a fulfillment. But it's not until it's all been fulfilled. And the next thing that has to happen is Joe Biden has to serve less, even if it's by a day, less time in office than Donald Trump did. He served his whole term.

So if he, you know, gets a head cold and is removed from office, you know, two days before, that's, that's another step to the prophecy. But if he goes all the way, then that's just, that's all bunk. Hmm. I mean, there's so much writing on this. I know. There's like, I'm fascinated to see how this, like, first you have this Trump presidency where he's going to implement all these things and and we're going to see, I think, good results from them. And it's interesting, I think, going forward to because you have Republicans who are, obviously, obviously Trump has changed the party, right?

Change the movement. And there's a lot of good things that go along with that. Maybe some of you might not like to. But generally speaking, you look at this and you say, this is a total change, right? This is a different. A lot of the principles are still there, but like he's changed the direction of the party. And the one thing that we haven't seen yet is can anyone else do this? Right.

Like, is Donald Trump just a really unique person who is sort of solely capable of winning with this coalition. I don't know. I would say, I mean, J.D. Vance seems like the type that could do it. Yeah, I was going to say, I would say that just about anybody else. Because DeSantis is good, but we saw DeSantis run. You know what I mean?

Against Donald Trump. Didn't make an impact, but, you know, who's going to make an impact against Donald Trump? Right, it could be that he wins next time. But I think J.D. Vance might be a guy who could pull that off. He is so good and yet still all out there. I mean, the guy has a beard. Who in office has had a beard since, like, you know, they had those big long beards. Maybe you should bring that back.

You should bring that back. Go to like Zizi Toplin. Yeah. Yeah. The Glenn Beck program. Let me talk to you about Jace Medical. Trump is going to be back in office and excellent news for the country. But in this transition period where there will be changes in law and policies, they have far-reaching effects.

All right, Mr. Stubrygear. Welcome to the program, sir.

How much have you spent time this weekend just celebrating? Like, even it was subtle. Mental celebrations, a little bit of enjoyment. Yeah, quite a bit. Realizing the work is still to come? Yeah, quite a bit. Tanya and I, we had our first weekend together with nothing happening our weekend since maybe June.

Really? Yeah. And so we just took the time and just, you know, once in a while we'd just be like, it's over. We won. I can't believe that. It's great, right? Yeah, it's great. Yeah.

It's great. I will say part of my celebration has been just watching the incredible meltdown from the other side. It is fun. It is. But it's sad. Fun. It's also sad because it's truly mental illness at this point. Mental illness.

Mental illness. Yeah. I think that's a fair. Yeah. And look, I understand with the, with the stakes. Like, if Trump were to have lost, if the Republicans had lost the Senate, if things have gone the opposite way. And the Democrats controlled the presidency, the House and the Senate all at the same time, which, with the exception of the House, which isn't confirmed, it's pretty darn close to that. And the opposite direction.

Like, we would have been in probably at least a little bit of meltdown. Yeah, we wouldn't have been, we wouldn't have been in the streets going, ah! No, no. I mean, that's just, that's mentally ill. Yes, and I love it. I want them to continue every little bit of that. I love watching the Joy Reid stuff. I love watching MSNBC highlights.

It's a guilty pleasure. It's a guilty pleasure. And I think it's really fun. Like, one of the things I've really enjoyed watching online is that the left has come up with an election denial theory already. Are you aware of this? Oh, yeah. This is pretty cool. This is fun.

This is fun. Okay. Because we've been hearing nonstop, you know, sermon after sermon after sermon from the left talking about how democracy shall shan't not be questioned. Yeah. You know, this whole idea that we are, you know, the election was not stolen. Election integrity is unnecessary to even pursue. How dare you?

And now they've come up with their own theory, which involves Elon Musk and involves Starlink. Apparently, Elon Musk, I guess, using Starlink to manufacture fake votes for Donald Trump. Oh, really? Starlink. Yeah. Yeah. The internet service. I thought those machines were impossible to hack into.

Right. They were until they lost. Until they lost. And then all of a sudden, that's, now, of course, they also told us they were hackable back in 2004. Right. When they said the voting machines were responsible for John Kerry's loss. And they are hackable in 2024. They are still hackable.

No, I mean, I would assume no electronic devices unhackable. No. I mean, even the most secure thing in the world is going to be hackable at some level. But generally speaking, you know, I'm pretty sure Donald Trump won this election. I am too. That's kind of how I stand on it. I know it's crazy. It wasn't close.

No. No. And now these people who have been telling us that we, we, we were the crazy ones this entire time now are completely embracing this same nonsense. Now, look, you can point out that not everybody is, right? Like, I guess, you know, Kamala Harris did concede. And they're trying to say that there's this like safe and normal transition of power, right? This peaceful transition of power, which is something you don't brag about when you're

giving power to Adolf Hitler. That's the one thing I can't get my arms around. I mean, I understand the mental illness. Because if you really have been convinced he is Adolf Hitler, I mean, if we really thought Kamala was the Antichrist, I think we'd be a little, you know, we might be screaming. Yeah. You know, we might be screaming.

If you really think that Adolf Hitler is coming into power, why would you want to be von Hindenberg? Right. I mean, because von Hindenberg was like, yeah, no, you just. violated the Constitution, but come on in. What do you like? Well, I want to be called Chancellor. All right, your Chancellor. Why would you do that? Why would you brag about a transition to power to a fascist dictator? And why would you say it's okay? I mean, it only makes sense if you actually believed he was Adolf Hitler. Right. That you would be, you double your game now.

Right. You'd be like, uh, no, no. At the very least, you wouldn't show up to, to the, the process, the the pomp and circumstance of it all. You wouldn't do that. You wouldn't invite him to the White House to talk him through the transition. You wouldn't do any of those things? In fact, wouldn't you say, Glenn, if it really was Adolf Hitler,

the much more rational response is the one we make fun of of Hollywood actors who say they're going to leave the country. Yes. If it was Adolf Hitler, that's a much more rational response, which makes you believe that the Hollywood people

at least partially might actually believe it. Eh, no. This is I'm not going to leave. I don't think they're going to leave. They say every time. Some of them do leave. Some of them go live in France. Who?

Okay. Well, they do. I mean, they really do. Yeah, but they belong there anyway. It's like, I agree with that. You know. But I think that's, I'm going to, I'm going to sacrifice. I'm going to go live in a villa in Tuscany.

Oh, you're so brave. You bet's a brave choice. So brave. Nice is very. I had to do it. I had to go to Tuscany. I just couldn't take it here anymore. Uh-huh.

Sure. But I think that that, like at least makes a little bit of sense, right? If you think Adolf Hitler's coming into power, leaving the country is somewhat rational. What isn't rational is to invite him into the White House, have a nice meeting with him and help him pick the drapes.

Right? Like that doesn't make any sense. And that's the problem here is everyone on earth who thinks this through, and this is why I left Hollywood out of this and some of the people on mind, because they don't think things true. I think they, I think some of them actually do believe Hitler's coming.

This is my Cameron Diaz principle. which dates back to 2004, the 2004 election, when she said on Oprah that if George W. Bush is reelected as president, rape will be legal in this country. Straight out. And everyone kind of paused and looked at her. And then they were like, are we supposed to clap at that? I don't. Yeah. And then they realized, it's Cameron. It's Cameron. D.S. Who cares, right? But I think there's just a bunch of idiots, right? There's some level of just a bunch of idiots. People who get really involved in this. You know, there's no shortage of morons online. Some of the stuff is just living in that. that world. But like, that's all inspired by politicians at the top, people like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and so many others, who 100% realized that Adolf Hitler is not getting elected. That's not what happened here. Donald Trump, yes, he disagrees with the untax policy. And yeah, there will be differences. You know, I'm not here to understate what the choice was. It was stark and thankfully America made the right one. But like at the end of the day, it's not Adolf Hitler.

here. It's not Adolf Hitler coming into office. They knew that the whole time. They acted as if they knew that the whole time. They just said the opposite and scared the hell out of a lot of very vulnerable people. And, you know, the worst example of this that I can think of off the top of my head is the way they treated abortion. You know, there are women who have died. They're dead because of what the left has done. This is a life and death situation. They convinced women. And they don't care. No, they don't care at all. First of all, they convinced women that the abortion pills as safe as ibuprofen or Tylenol. It is absolutely not.

We did a whole show on this on Studeau's America going over the numbers on this. And it also is a mental nightmare. Oh, God, that's secondary. I know. I know. I'm thinking of the physical aspects, but they're saying, you know, abortion for the mother's health. Well, that doesn't help. And for her mental state.

Well, that's not going to help either. In this particular case, those are the two, these are really dangerous for both of those things. Yeah. And, you know, the number of hospitalizations that come from ibuprofen or Tylenol and the abortion pill are roughly near each other, the difference is about there's about 600,000 uses of the abortion pill in the United States. And there are 8 billion doses of Tylenol, for example, in the United States. not to mention almost every single, every single hospitalization that's due, that comes from Tylenol is due to an overdose. Someone taking way too much Tylenol more than is allowed on the label and many times intentional. People who are having suicidal issues and wind up intentionally overdosing trying to kill themselves and they go to the hospital.

There are no hospitalizations from the abortion bill due to overdose. No one takes 14 abortion bills by mistake. That's not a thing. All of them are just the outcome of the abortion bill being taken as directed, right? So you have this situation. They scare people. First of all, they tell people there's no danger to this. Then when they do have these problems that they think are one and a trillion type problems

that happen all the time. Do they? Then when they have those problems, what do they do? Well, they're terrified from the left's fear. that if they go and get medical attention, they'll be thrown in a dungeon for 50 years because of the new abortion loss. Now, not true at all. If you happen to be a woman who, God forbid, has gone through this situation and made a choice like that and are dealing with the medical ramifications of that, you absolutely can go get medical attention that you need.

It will be provided to you. And it is absolutely legal for you to get that attention. You will not get in trouble for it. don't die at home because you listen to idiotic people from MSNBC about abortion laws, right? But this is really what's happened here. Now you've created a some subset of the left that really believes this stuff. Yeah. That actually believes that Handmaid's Tale is coming back.

That actually believes Adolf Hitler is about to become president in the United States. And you talk about this. There's a reason why people were taking shots at Donald. Trump. Yes. When you create an entire society, a subset of society, that thinks they would be doing good if they took out Adolf Hitler, which we all recognize would be doing good. They make movies about that.

Tom Cruise stars in them. Like, you're a hero. You're thought of as a hero throughout history when you were doing, when you're trying to take out Adolf Hitler. So when you create a society of people who believe that, you're not. that. Well, what happens? What's the outcome of that? And I can't get over the fact that after, after that occurred, their closing argument was that he was Adolf Hitler. After he had almost been murdered in front of our eyes twice, their closing argument for this election was Trump is Hitler.

It's the most disgusting and irresponsible thing, I can imagine, unless, of course, that's your goal. then I guess it was right in the pocket of what their election strategy was. And I hate to, I shudder to think that that's actually true. I'm clutching my pearls right now. It's scary to think that way. But it's been, the other side of it is at least there's been some entertainment out of it. The entertainment is they're all freaking out. They look like lunatics.

They're all trying to come up with crazy excuses. Actually, Kamala ran a perfect, flawless campaign. and it's just the misogyny of Hispanic people? I mean, this is where they're going. It's just going to work. It's just going to work. I don't know. Why did they vote for Hillary Clinton?

By a large margin. 30 something points. That's weird. Why did they just elect a female as president in Mexico? It's a very good point. I don't understand. All right, more in just a second. Listen, if you think you're excited about Black Friday coming up soon, you should see the people

I'm always questioning myself, and I think it's healthy to look at your own actions, especially when you've won. Did I do it? What role did I play? Did I play a negative role, positive role? What could I do better next time? Sure. And I wonder, you know, none of the stuff. that we said was going to happen, you know, the theft of the election, that they're, you know,

going to work overtime, et cetera, et cetera. I think they did that, but I think the GOP did their job as well. And they obviously didn't have the plans. Maybe they did. I don't know. Didn't have the plans that we suspected that they might. And so I'm wondering, on our side, did I? misjudge them in any way.

I'm sure you did in some way, yeah. I mean, look, I don't know. I'm not exactly sure you're being a little vague here. No, I'm not. No, it's a vague question. It's soul searching on, okay, you know, and mainly because I was so sure that this was going to be a really dangerous period. And that's not happening.

Not yet. Yeah, yeah, not yet. Remember, the protest didn't even start until January when Trump was the first time. Yeah, I know, I know. So first Thessalonians, five, three, read that. That's what I thought this, this weekend, I'm like, hmm, wait a minute. Maybe it's a calm period right before the storm. And you're right.

It was calm until January 6th. So that still could be coming. But I, I just, did I misjudge them? I want to make sure I'm fair. Did I misjudge anything? I'd have to go back and. really look at what you said or what we said. I don't think, nothing pops to mind as to like you made some drastic, I mean, you

definitely warned about unrest and we haven't seen that sort of unrest yet. It seems to me that there's less unrest than in 2016. There's more of like, because I do think. Well, 2016, they went right for the, I mean, they had the pink hats out in mass. I mean, remember, it was the day before the day of his inauguration where we had, we had the women's protest, you know. And they're protesting now in New York. And they've seen the...

There will be protests. Yeah. Have you seen the New York protests where you're not taking our legals? And Adams now is suddenly like, yeah, this is a sanctuary city and we're going to... What? What are you talking about? It's so strange. I think that there is a...

There's more of a resignation to this at some level. Well, it was a very close election. And we shouldn't overstate this. It feels like a blowout because we found out in a day, which... doesn't seem normal anymore. But I mean, in reality, you're talking about those blue wall states were all within two points. You know? Yeah, I know.

But it was all of them. It was all of them, but they were all pretty close. Yeah. I mean, they were all pretty close to the polling averages, frankly. It was all of them, but that was, that's normal. There's their correlated, polling errors are typically correlated in one direction or the other. And the polling error, when you talk about it was pretty minor. It was about a point and a half.

I mean, it's nothing. So, but I do think that. Unlike in 2016 where they were sure they were winning, they were very, they were uncertain here. And the hype behind Kamala was hollow. Like they, they knew this was a real possibility. If they were, I mean, think of what an amazing accomplishment it would have been if they had won. I mean, they tossed their candidate like three months before the election. Like, it would have been incredible if they had actually won.

They didn't. And I think a lot of them realized they were at least in very serious danger of it. we haven't seen that initial response, but like Trump will do something. Something will happen. I know. There will be some sort of thing that they elevate to the George Floyd status, whether it has to do with race or sex or whatever it is. Sexuality, whatever it is, they'll come up with something. We just have to be protests.

We just have to be vigilant. Yet, like you said, what did you do to celebrate this weekend? Celebrate. Still, you know, right now we have, we can catch our breath. I don't know of a time that we felt that way. And, well, I do. Right after 2016, we were like, oh, we won Donald Trump. And it was a nightmare.

But that started right away. This time, we have some time. We should rest and, you know, charge ourselves and have some fun because, you know, what's coming may not be so fun. I'm really, really hopeful, though. But I will tell you, some of the stuff that he came out and the policies that he's outlining now, they are so comprehensive and so deep. He's talking to the bone.

You know, it's like we not going to like that. The left is not going to like that. So I would not be surprised that the other still comes. Yeah, neither is the elite. Neither are the real, real Uber wealthy like George Soros, the NGOs. I mean, he is, he's making a lot of enemies right now. The ministry of preborn is fighting every single day for the lives of babies. And they're also fighting for the lives and the souls of moms.

This is what I love about preborn is that they help the mom and the child. So they're saving two souls. The stain of abortion on American continues to this day. Wholesale murder still happens. But it has to come to an end someday. We have to change the hearts and the minds of people in this country. That's what's going to change this. So proud to partner with pre-born every day.

They sponsor free ultrasounds for women as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born. When a mom sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears that heartbeat, she's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby. Preborn is saving 200 babies a day with the help from people just like you and me. One ultrasound is $28. $140 will rescue five babies. Babies are worth fighting for. So are their moms.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. It is Veterans Day. And there are a ton of veterans now that are homeless, which is. absolutely inexcusable. What we're doing with people that are coming from other countries who haven't given any service to our nation at all, and we're putting them up and we're giving them food and everything else, that is an abomination, especially in comparison to what our veterans have done for us. They come back, they're wounded mentally or physically.

Some of them, both, many of them, struggle. I'm sorry, but the VA is also an abomination. I mean, everybody's like, oh, we, I really want, you know, socialized medicine. Really? Talk to a veteran. See how they get the shaft. If they'll give these guys, our war heroes, that crappy of health care, what do you think you're going to get? Well, one of my mottoes has always been, if we want to, wanted the government to do less, we have to do more. And there's a lot of really great groups out there to help veterans. A new one that I have found that I really, really like is the Battle Within. And I've asked the executive director to come on with me. His name is

Justin Hoover. And you can find this at the battle within.org, the battle within.org. When I was up in Kansas City, I met with him. And he's got an incredible story to tell. Justin, welcome. Thank you so much, Glenn. So great to be with you here on Veterans Day. Yeah, thank you. So, Justin, tell me, tell me your story. Sure. Yeah, so really my story starts in Iraq. I was in Tel-Far, Senjar region. I know when you're in Kansas City, we talked about you being there. It's where the Yazidi got chased up the Mountain of Dep. And so that was really my AO. and I spent a year, just shy of a year there. There was a lot of heavy fighting that went on.

I ended up coming home with a pair of Purple Hearts, first one, thanks to some small arms fire to the face. And the second one, Kurt Lomer, left me full with some shrapnel that I had to get med back out of country to get 10 to 2 and ended up resulting coming home. And after that, you know, Glenn, I really felt like I had all my stuff together.

I got out of the military, came back to Kansas City, was really moving on with my life and forward with my life for the next 10 years. And it wasn't until my stepdaughter at high school and it was really suffering from depression and suicide theology, that all the things that I suppressed, I'll just say kids should never be in a war zone. And all the times when I couldn't help those children

in the way that I wanted were kind of replaying itself in my living room. And just that hopelessness and helplessness just really drove me and my mental health into a dark place. And fortunately, my wife recognized it and was able to convince me to actually tend to it. And that's when I really started my own journey and my own path towards getting better myself. How'd you do it? Well, I was very fortunate. You know, I tried different services. You know, I tried with the VA. And I'll say we're off on our own biggest barrier, right? There's a lot of barriers.

Wait, you're breaking up. Are you there? Oh, I am. Are you able to hear me? Yeah, I am now. Go ahead. There we go. So, you know, we're off on our own biggest barriers to our mental health.

And I was very fortunate. He's now our clinical manager, Adam Majors, had designed a program that I went through. And it was just so life-changing. And I knew I needed to stay involved in this community. and that really kind of led to the battle within's creation just as a way to pay it forward to others that have been in that same space that I was and because it really allowed me to be the family man, the father, the partner, the parent that I wanted to be. It allowed me to really have the self-confidence and find myself again to be able to be a leader of an organization to

be able to provide that mental health for others. So you came home and you didn't necessarily, I mean, I don't want to make this such a blanket statement, but you didn't necessarily fight for what you, or fight with what you had done. It's what you couldn't do or didn't do the saving of others. Is that right? Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, everyone's story is so unique and so personal to their own.

But for me, you know, really I felt I had 10 fingers, 10 toes. I kept seeing all these organizations helping veterans, and a lot of them were amputees or burn victims, of which there were guys in my unit that that applied to. And so I really felt, hey, I'm good to go. I don't want to take services from somebody else. I know there's limited resources, and I want it to go to them. And so we all do that, right, because we are these selfless servants. And so there's always that call to just allow others that need it worse.

And I always tell people now, it's kind of like a mash casualty event. Like when an IED goes off, you don't tell the medic, no, I'm good to go. The medic triages you all and tells you, hey, you need services now or you need them here in a little bit and ranks you on who gets to go on the medevac bird first. And so really that's what we do at the battle within is we help. people get started on that path to healing. And that's, that was really the struggle for me is, is finding both the courage and the permission to allow myself that healing process. So this is free to veterans, if I'm not mistaken.

What is, what do you do? What is like the five-day program and the, go ahead. Yeah, a great question. And as you said, yes, it is free to our veterans and first responders throughout the entire nation. And really what we do at the battle within during our five-day revenue journey is we really take these people that come in, really most of them hopeless. And we give them that opportunity to fully understand and explore those traumas that they've endured in service to us all. And that's very hard to do, right? Because you don't want to, you don't want

to expose those parts of yourself because in our professions, there's a lot of shame and stigma that goes with that. These are team sports, their life or death sports. If I share that I'm not in a good place, then that's a good way to get kicked out of the, yeah, that's a good way to get kicked out of the family unit. So to really allow them a place where they can come and share that are these doctors? Are these doctors or veterans? Yeah, we have clinicians. Yeah, we have clinicians that lead the program. Several of them are veterans themselves. We also have peer support that are previous graduates, their veterans or first responders, that come back and really hold the space, help process and be there for these folks as they go through what's a very challenging

but rewarding week. So here we are on Veterans Day. Give me your pitch to any veteran who might be listening who is struggling or any family member that knows of somebody who is struggling. You know, I would just say that there is a place that understands what you're, you're going through, that cares what you're going through and believes that you're worth it. And I think that that is such a challenge where veterans get into this isolated place where they believe that nobody understands, nobody cares, and that they're not worth it.

And that is the perfect recipe for isolation, depression, and ultimately suicide. And so if you are struggling with whatever in your life, please reach out for help. through the battle within or to someone else, that first step is the hardest step. But it gets so much easier and there is hope. And that's really what we bring at the battle within is we bring that hope. We bring those tools. We bring that community of support to really allow people to reclaim their life and to really have the life that they've earned and that they deserve for themselves and their family.

I will tell you that I'm a recovering alcoholic and you get to a point where you like nothing can help me. Nothing can help me. It's just me. I'm the problem. And you've just boxed yourself into this corner where there's no way out. And if you happen to be listening right now and you feel like, yeah, but it's not going to work for me, please call them. Also, if you are somebody who has money, they can offer this for free because of big donations. So if you can donate anything, thing, go to the battle within.org. That's the battle within.org. Make a donation, or if you or somebody you love, check out all of the information and spread this, please. It is Veterans Day, and there is no excuse for any veteran to be suffering right now. There's none. And we want to make

sure, and I know you feel the same way, that our veterans are treated with the respect and the dignity that they deserve. So go to the battle within.org. The battle within.org.

It's home for Christmas with Cheyenne Grace and the Czechoslovakian National Symphony.

Is it still called the Czechoslovakian? No, it's a Czech Republic. Sorry, Czech Republic Symphony. So this is your daughter, by the way? People should know that. I like... I hate that. You hate your daughter?

Gosh. No, I hate this. I hate because it seems like such a, I don't know. Vanity thing. Like, yeah, I can say, I know why you'd think that, but again, it's one of those situations where, like, I don't know if you had hired her to run the radio company. No, that would be bad. But people would be like, would have no idea. I mean, you can hear her voice.

You can tell she's pretty damn talented. Yeah. I mean, like. This is how she's going to earn her college education and everything else. Like, you want it. I'll help you do one thing in your life. And, you know, and if it's successful, then maybe I'll help you again. But hopefully you won't need my help.

But this is what she wanted help on. And this is her, Cheyenne Grace is her stage name. She's an actress, too. She has not used Cheyenne Beck's and she was, she just told me, she just told me. When I was little, I thought our last name was Wells. because we used to travel always and use that name, Wells, as an Orson Wells. And so she's on this tape. She comes down and in, she's found this tape of her, like, you know, really, really young.

And she's like, hello, everybody. I'm Cheyenne Wells. Oh, really? She'd had no idea that that wasn't our last name. So you screwed her up from the beginning. Screwed her up from the beginning. No, but then she started using Beck and then people were like, oh, you're Glenn Beck's daughter.

And she didn't like that. Yeah, I could see it because you're trying to. Like, do you got to go out on your own? Yeah. That's understandable. What I think, again, I have not heard this whole thing yet, but it sounds incredible. I give it to, I'll send it to you today. Please.

Yeah. I also like that you didn't try to do like some crazy, you know, like, we're going to remake all these songs in some weird way with all these new instrumentations and reimagining. Like, these are like classics. Yeah. Like we, we had them arranged just like the classic. Like the version that we like, yeah, as a family. We're like, you know, you're not going to do white.

Christmas. She doesn't do white Christmas, but you're not going to do white Christmas and really make it sound different than, you know, a 1940s white Christmas. Yeah. I feel like when I hear some of these songs, I picture them like already. I've already seen them in movies. Yeah. I feel like that's a really good sign for the success of this thing. Because it's like, it's like it already feels like the real version. Yeah. And, you know, it is, again, I would never give you compliments like that, but she's incredibly talented. She is. It is amazing. I said this before. I said to the guy who was doing the vocal production, I said, that if the orchestra, we got back from Prague and did the orchestra, and I'm like, it is phenomenal.

And I said, she cannot release an album. If she doesn't, if the star is the orchestra, not releasing us. Right. And if she's a seven out of 10, like, she's going to be graded on a very negative career for being associated to you. Yes.

As someone who's dealt with that for multiple decades, I know. Oh, you're running fast, aren't you? Yeah. But it's great. So it'll be available on Spotify and Apple and everything else here in a couple weeks. I mean, you're drawing it. We're getting close to Christmas here.

I know. We're really drawing this out. I know. It was supposed to be available now, but it's all the encoding and everything else is taking longer. I mean, you should try to get it out before December. That's what I said. It's what I said. Yeah, it's what I said.

You also have a Halloween movie coming out three months. It's really. was supposed to come out this last week and just delays and all kinds of different things. You know what I would do. Yeah. I would blame the producer for such a problem like that because I mean the producer is supposed to be the one on top of that. Who produced this album? Is there a particular person? I don't know what you're talking about. What would you put as like responsible? You know who I blamed Joe Biden. Joe Biden didn't get out fast enough. Biden's in action. I had to race to find it because he was like, like, I'm going to do a Christmas house, I do a Christmas album. And then, you know, I said, okay, what Christmas song? He's like, go.

And finally America woke up and went, he's not going to do a Christmas, he's not qualified to do a Christmas album. So I had to rush to do our Christmas album. So let me, let me, let me, let me, he would have dropped out earlier on the Christmas album. Right. It would have been smooth sailing. That's true. Yeah, that's true. I mean, it was basically

a flawless campaign by you. Flawless. It's been flawless. But it's Joe Biden's called. If it doesn't sell. Joe Biden. Here's my proposal for you. If this hits, I wouldn't can figure out

what the right metric is, but some level of success, you have to commit to doing a duet with her that you sing absolutely seriously. A full song where you and her sing together and you have parts where you sing by yourself. No, I don't think that's a...

In fact, a whole Glen Beck Christmas album produced by me. The Glenn Beck Program.
