Let me tell you about rough greens.
How's your dog doing?
My dog is slowing down.
My dog is now 11 approaching 12 and, ah, he's slowing down.
But I think we have helped him have a healthier, more pain-free life and a better life
because we put rough greens on our dog's food.
This is something that naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black can.
Came into my studios one time I was talking to me about.
And I said, look, my dog won't eat anything.
But if you can put something like ketchup on his food and make him eat it, it'll be a wonder to me.
Well, he wolves it down.
But then I saw the benefit of all of these vitamins and minerals and antioxidants and probiotics.
He changed as a dog.
It became much more active, much healthier.
The vet was thrilled and so are we.
So is he.

What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
And, you know, one of the best things about owning your own content, your own show,
is when I feel like it, much of the chagrin of my sponsors, I can say, I just want some time just to talk to you.
And so I'm getting rid of all the commercials for the next half hour.
So you and I can have a talk because yesterday I was driving through the rain to visit a friend.
And it was a powerful storm just coming down in buckets.
It was dark and stormy.
And that was on the way there.
And I went into my friend's house and I came out about three hours later and it was bright and beautiful and it looked like a completely different neighborhood.
Nothing had changed except the storm had stopped and the clouds began to part.
On the way back I was driving through this farming community.
As it was bright and sunny, I saw people no longer cowering or running into their homes or their stores or avoiding the storm.
but they were back to work as if nothing had happened.
And they had recognized that the storm, the water that came from that storm was a blessing.
That storm made it so we could go on growing and feeding and helping ourselves, our families, and others.
And as I was driving through the canyons, I began to think and I got home and I wrote some things down that I want to share with you.
because this week has been both the best of weeks and the worst of weeks.
We have seen the lies that many of us knew were lies, laid bare for the world to see,
and many Americans finally going, wait a minute, what?
We have seen the brave step forward with nothing to hide, yet a ton to fear.
But we've also seen the depths of man's depravity.
the arrogance of the elite and the corruption of justice.
We have witnessed the illusion of power.
So I wanted to take a minute today and just shatter that illusion and remind you of the reality
of who we are and what lies just ahead.
But first, I want you just to take a second and breathe.
Breathe deep.
And then breathe in the spirit of the brave leader.
who have carried us through the moments of triumph and uncertainty.
Breathe in Washington at Valley Forge.
Lincoln, who died to set men free.
Breathe in the spirit of FDR, who fought the monsters overseas
that actually believed in inferior races and useless life.
He stood despite his wheelchair, the very thing that made them believe.
believe he was weak and useless, made him strong and determined to see our ship through the storm.
Breathe in the times we felt strength and hope from JFK and Ronald Reagan as the world inched
closer to nuclear annihilation. Breathe in the brave Americans like Martin Luther King, who dared
to remind us of our highest ideals that all men are created equal and doing it while knowing
it may cost him his life.
But knowing in the end, it would set free the powerful force of an entire race, and in doing
so would smash the shackles of racism.
Racism of all involved, white, black, brown, red, yellow.
Breathe in the spirits of their resilience and their stories that remind us of the strength.
We all harness when we stand in unity.
We're not strangers to adversity.
And yet in the face of overwhelming odds, we're renowned for rising from the ashes of defeat,
stronger, wiser, and even more united.
Too many of us now doubt that this American unity that we found in the rubble of Pearl Harbor or the Twin Towers
will be true again as we deal with what approaches.
Do not doubt.
Do not fear.
The forces of darkness may feel powerful and in charge right now, but they are merely the whispers
and the shadows and the echoes of ancient lies.
They will be defeated again, but only when the truth is no longer held captive by fear.
Our nation is the epitome of freedom, the birthplace of freedom by being the birthplace of
opportunity, a beacon for those seeking the liberty to steer their own destiny.
The alluring prospect of freedom is not just a lofty ideal, but it is a living testament
to the human spirit, one that stands antithetical to the constraints of Marxism and
other failed ideas. Our great country rebukes such a doctrine that undermines the human essence,
the inherent right to independence, the power to define one's own course.
We're a nation built on the pillars of compassion and justice.
Yet in these trying times, we seem to forget that compassion is our virtue,
but it can be our vice. Because if it's left unchecked,
if compassion is detached from eternal truths, this virtue will morph in
to a weapon of mass destruction. We have to strive to find a balance, nurturing empathy and compassion
while adhering to the truths that have guided us thus far. The freedom to carve our own path
also implies the responsibility to contribute, to work, to strive for excellence, not just
personal gain, but to uplift our brothers and sisters. The American Dream,
isn't solely about achieving personal success. In fact, I don't think it's attached to that at all.
It's about charting your own course and about lifting all those around us, nurturing the collective good.
We will lose our path if we don't recognize that it is high time that we restored our self-evident truths
regarding gender, family, blind justice, integrity, and our basic human rights.
These principles are the foundation of our society, and if we reinstate them, we will pave the way for the next great chapter of the American narrative.
Freedom of speech and thought.
They're pillars upon which our society rests.
The ability to question, to seek truth, to challenge norms, define our human nature.
Since birth, we as children have an inherent curate.
and that should never be stifled or restricted, our capacity to ask why, what, how.
That is the thread that weaves the very fabric of our being human and our drive to learn, explore, and grow.
We stand on the precipice of demanding and times of trial,
laden with complex questions and potentially tougher answers.
But if we rally behind our Bill of Rights, we uphold personal responsibility and acknowledge
that we are not infallible, that neither the corporations, the elites, the latest algorithm,
nor governments are omnipotent.
We can navigate this storm together, but we must.
simply acknowledge God remains God and we are not nor ever will be him. Kindness and understanding
and the willingness to embrace disagreement have been the lifeblood of our democracy. We've always
been a nation that not only tolerates but fights for the rights of those with divergent views to
express themselves. This is uniquely American. This value is a testament. This value is a testament.
to the strength of our commitment to freedom as we face our challenges head on.
We must remember the virtues and the values that set us apart on this continent.
Let us be guided by our shared commitment to the freedoms that we hold dear.
It's only this way that we can build a better future for all Americans.
There is a new horizon waiting.
for us. It beckons us to recalibrate, to renew ourselves, and to chart a course that is reflective
of the diverse, the vibrant, and resilient spirit that has always been quintessentially American.
It's our unity, not our diversity. Unity is our strength. Our commitment to the freedom of the
individual to seize the opportunity that is just over the third.
threshold of tomorrow. That's our anchor with unity and the individual with these. We'll write a new
invigorating chapter in our shared American story. It's not going to be some internet mob,
some angry, misguided malcontents who march and burn and destroy, nor a puffed up army of
government administrators or an all-powerful executive. But it will be us, us, us.
as individuals in our own way, in our own lives, simply by uniting under the banner, that
we still hold these ideas as self-evident truths. That all men are created equal, that they're
endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, and that among these are life, liberty,
in the pursuit of happiness, and that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among
men. And let me emphasize that this same government in the next line,
derives their just powers from the consent of the governed.
That's you.
That's not some distant pencil pusher you never voted for.
Not some foreign body or collection of people who have absolutely no power in their forums.
That's you.
Break the shackles of the lies and illusions.
Make a commitment to speak
Only the truths that unite us and have united us for centuries do all that you can do to restore the faith in one another again.
Yes, we're different. Yes, we disagree. But we must unite on what we have in common. And those things are those self-evident principles.
If you can't say that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator, if you can't say that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator, if you can,
cannot agree with the Bill of Rights,
heck, give me eight out of the ten.
If you can't,
if you can't speak the words that those words are true
and the highest ideals that any country has ever espoused,
and yes, we don't live up to it all the time.
We have had very dark periods in our country,
but we have also had,
unbelievable light whatever the government may have done from time to time
don't put that on my door I wasn't born I wasn't around I didn't have the right
to vote at that time what the government is doing in my lifetime is a reflection of
me if they answer to the people which they no longer do they are no longer
restrained by the governed who give them their just powers I haven't seen a
just power in quite some time breathe in Washington breathe in King breathe in the
good times breathe in the times where we were at each other's throats but we
came back together because we had a common purpose I hear people on the right now
talk about a new founding an unrestrained executive that we are too far gone we need to forget and stop
conserving what is good and start reimagining now we do not need a new founding we do not need a
reimagining we need a reset we need a rediscovery we need a recommitment we need a
We need a restoration of truth, of God, and the power he gives each of us to rule over our own lives and our passions and our feelings.
So many times I fear we're not going to make it.
So many times I fear and feel like I felt in my pickup truck driving to my friend's house yesterday.
Jeez, look at this storm.
Look at the damage that it's doing.
But I promise you, we'll weather the storm if we understand that it's temporary, that our fear is not real.
If we curse the storm after the storm, we haven't learned a thing.
I thank God for the storm.
I thank God for the storms of my life.
I thank God for all of the things that, oh, I've been through and you've been through.
We all have our storms.
We all have our problems.
We all struggle.
All of us struggle.
Thank God for that.
Because I am a stronger man and I am a better man for that.
Thank you for the rain.
It has helped me grow.
It washes away the dirt and the grime.
It purifies.
That's why we have baptism.
That's what that means.
It washes away all of the grime.
the filth and you know why it works because those of us who have seen the change in our life
needed the change in our life and we had faith that this water and being immersed in that water
would perform miracles in our lives if we didn't believe if we didn't strive for if we
Didn't do the basic work that water would just be water.
The clouds are breaking.
Shadows only exist because there is a light somewhere.
And as the shadows grow more defined and darker and more menacing, realize that's only
because the light has grown stronger.
God is very well aware of you.
knows who you are he knows what your struggles are when you recognize that he knows
this and that the storms of our lives will make us better and put us into the
situation to where we need to be if we will just not curse the storm we can
learn and it will renew us I worry so much about so many of our friends and family
And you, I worry so much of those who are in the depths of despair and think there is no way out.
That think their life is not worth living.
That is the whisper of lies.
Let's move forward, together, toward the promising horizon, knowing that all will be well in the end.
we've done it before
and if we do it again
we will triumph
we will demonstrate to the world again
the indomitable
American spirit

now is the time to subscribe to blaze tv go to blazed tv.com slash glen use the promo code glen welcome to the
glenbeck program thank you so much for tuning in we have a lot on our plate today uh trump went to
a court right after his third arraignment now this is what he said here's cut one well thank you
very much this is a very sad day for america and it was also very sad driving through
Washington, D.C. and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls
and the graffiti. This is not the place that I left. It's a very sad thing to see it. When you look
at what's happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent. This was never supposed to
happen in America. This is the persecution of the person that's leading by very, very substantial
numbers in the Republican primary and leading Biden by a lot. So if you can't beat him, you
persecute him or you prosecute him. We can't let this happen in America. Thank you very much.
He said earlier, I'm only one arraignment away from locking up the election.
His poll numbers in Iowa are looking very good and solid.
There's a new poll that is out today.
Yeah, they're not as good as his national numbers, but they're still pretty darn good.
He's at 44% among Iowa GOP voters.
DeSantis at 20, which is up a little bit from his showing nationally.
The biggest difference from the other candidates was Tim Scott, who showed up at 9% in this poll.
Everyone, Rob Swamy's at 5.
Haley's at four, Pence at three, Doug Bergam at one. So that's your, Chris Christie could not
get to one. We should point out. Did not quite get to one. He did have a good poll in New Hampshire
yesterday, but he did not get to 1% in this particular poll. Unbelievable. What was his poll in New Hampshire?
Let me pull that up. I believe he was at 11% in New Hampshire.
Shut up. Shut up. New Hampshire. What's wrong with you?
You figure he's going to do better in a Northeast situation than he's going to do in a place like Iowa where he doesn't even seem to be competing.
I mean, he didn't even come to the event that we covered in, in Iowa, which, you know, other than him.
We didn't have enough catering.
No.
We didn't have enough catering.
For him and me?
No, that's impossible.
The whole state didn't have enough.
Yeah.
But the only other quote unquote top candidate to get to not come was.
Trump and Trump obviously makes
at some levels you could argue
makes sense considering he has a big lead
you know he doesn't have to show up to
every event like everyone else does maybe
you know Chrissy didn't even bother to show
largely because he just
not even trying in Iowa
he's going for a New Hampshire situation
and really of course he's not even trying
to be president he just wants to yell at people
and get more catering
but yeah he was at 11%
in the poll there
he was a little I think
still in third place, I believe
Desantis was second and of course Trump was leading the
the poll.
You know, I mean, it's still
too early to take too much from this stuff.
I mean, I think we have the general
the general idea of the race, which
is Donald Trump leads by a significant
margin. Going to be really tough to beat
him. Desantis is a clear
number two and
everyone else kind of fighting for their moment
below that.
So, I want
to play something. This is from
CBS News.
And I just want to play this because I want to ask you if you've ever heard anything like this.
They've just indicted the president of the United States who is running against the current
president of the United States.
They've indicted him.
That's never been done before in American history.
That's never been done before.
It should be pretty weighty.
This particular indictment, everybody says, I mean,
anybody who is honest, every attorney that looks at it as honest is like, yeah, there's no case here.
There is no case here.
Listen to how CBS News handles this yesterday.
Also in the courtroom is the special counsel Jack Smith.
And I want to spend a moment on Jack Smith because he is essentially who Donald Trump is up against.
And multiple of these indictments.
The two, of course, the classified documents.
and the January 6th one, and they are sitting across from each other inside this courtroom.
Jack Smith is someone who has run over and competed in over 100 triathlons.
He was reportedly at one point hit when he was on his bike by a truck.
And 10 weeks later, he ran another triathlon.
What? Wow.
This is a man of a lot of grit and a lot of determination.
Yes.
And even what we have seen in these indictments is just a sliver of what they know in his
prosecutorial team knows, right?
His aggressive approach to his personal
health and exercise correlates to how he
approaches his prosecution and his strategy.
We've talked a lot about how the former president is
under pressure, but Jack Smith is also
under pressure today.
What is that?
And I mean, if you've never seen Jack Smith,
he doesn't look like the rock. I mean, like,
they make it sound like he's Dwayne Johnson. I mean,
it's just a normal looking guy.
It is amazing.
to me. That was their political
take. That was their
legal take. They were talking
about the prosecution
of a former president. And I love
the thing. You know, just what we see
in the documents. I mean, that's just
a sliver of
what he and his prosecutors know.
Right? Please.
Right. Like that's like, we look at
the documents and we were underwhelmed.
So he's got more, right?
Like that's the approach they're looking
for here. It is a
It is amazing to me.
They have not learned a thing.
Not a thing.
This is what they were doing during the Russiagate thing.
Oh, we're told that they've got a lot.
I mean, this is it.
This is going to be the knockout punch.
It's incredible.
And over and over and over again, it would be nothing.
Right?
Over and over and over again.
It would be disappointing.
And they'd have to come up with reasons to justify why it actually was good in retrospect.
They have not learned one thing.
from this, not one thing.
And, you know, I mean, everybody who looks at this, I think, comes to the same conclusion that,
you know, they don't have, what they need in a case like this is a text or an email or Donald
Trump on tape saying, I know I didn't win this election, but I'm going to do this anyway because
I want to remain in power.
It needs to be that clear.
We're talking about convicting the president of the United States for trying to overthrow an
election.
You need real evidence.
Not, I mean, legitimately, Glenn, if you look at the indictment, they're like, well, he knew he had lost the election.
And here's how we know that.
Mike Pence told him he lost it.
Well, he doesn't, when's the last time he ever listened to Mike Pence?
Has there ever been a time?
I'm under the belief that he went there and he said, Mike, will you be my VP?
And then he didn't even stick around to hear what he said in response.
Like, that is how little Donald Trump.
Trump cares what Mike Pence says.
You know, and I have to tell you, it's crazy because you're exactly right.
That is the evidence.
He had experts tell him.
Oh.
Oh, he had experts tell him.
Okay.
All right.
And so he could not have believed otherwise.
The experts told him.
When has Donald Trump listened to any of these experts except for Fauci?
When has he ever listened to them?
When?
It's a very good point.
I will say, too, you know, again, we can all mock people like Sidney Powell.
But coming into that situation, she was relatively well respected as an attorney.
Rudy Giuliani obviously was a close advisor to Donald Trump for a long time.
He had his slew of people telling him, you know, what he wanted to hear slash, you know, that he won the election and he should do all these things.
he had his I mean John Eastman was a very highly respected legal expert before all this stuff went down
I mean he's he's not a he's not a schlub at all I mean these are people who were saying hey this could
be something to go it's it's a theory you know might not work might get thrown out on the courts
but it's something you can try so he even had his own experts that he can cite I just don't see
how you're going to get into his head unless you have legitimate black and white evidence right
he's on tape you have him on tape yeah like that's what you need that's what you need and people
And it has to be, it has to be, it has to-
without that.
Well, maybe you shouldn't get a conviction without it.
You know, maybe that's the way our system should work.
You should have real crystal clear evidence to convict a former president who's currently
the leader of the opposition party.
And if you want to talk about people believing the experts, let's go back to Al Gore and
Hillary Clinton that all believe that the 2000 election was stolen and have said it for two decades,
two decades.
They have their own experts.
the New York Times.
The New York Times was telling him this
in a time when we trusted the experts
and they still didn't trust them.
They still say it.
Come on. Come on.
Yeah. I think there wasn't a break.
You know, I've read a bunch of these books
about the internal, you know,
machinations of the Trump administration
and all that was going down.
And like, of course, you can't know
every single bit of this is true.
But what it does seem like is early on after the election,
he had a few moments where he's like,
I can't believe I lost the Joe Biden.
Like, how did the house?
Seriously, how did this happen?
Right.
Before it was really settled,
he did try to challenge all these things in court.
But, I mean, at the end of the day,
as he should have.
He was convinced that he won.
Like, he may have had moments early on
where he was like, gosh, I can't believe this happened.
But he wound up coming to the conclusion,
right or wrong,
he came to the conclusion that he won.
And he's stuck to that ever since.
And it's going to be.
be really hard to prove a state of mind that he actually believed he lost but did these things
anyway, which is really what this is dependent on. And I mean, they're not going to be able to find that
unless you have some incredible evidence we don't know about yet. And they just left out of the
indictment. It's going to be really hard to prove that. I would like to be, I would like to be called
to the witness stand as a witness for the defense. Okay. I called him a week before January 6th.
It was right before, right before I returned from Holiday.
And I call him up and he's in the White House.
He's in the Oval Office.
And he said, first thing out of his mind, can you believe how this was rigged?
I said, hello, Mr. President.
No.
He said, Glenn, this, this was complete thievery.
and I said, well, Mr. President, I don't know.
I don't have the facts, but you'll never convince me that everything was on the up and up.
Now, that didn't mean to me that he would have won.
He may have.
I don't know that for a fact, but I will tell you that I believe lots of votes were stolen, inaccurate, and everything else.
I don't know the total number what it would have been.
happened to believe, but this is my belief, I happen to believe it wasn't on the up and up,
and it probably would have gone to him if they wouldn't have played all of these games.
But I don't know that, but he was absolutely convinced. There was no talking to him about,
well, you know, I'm not sure. He was like, there's got to be, there's got to be a way to be
able to prove this and they're moving right by it.
That's what the president told me.
And he was, you're trying to get into his head.
Well, there it is.
I mean, I believed him.
I believed him.
He tells me things.
You know, when I disagree with him, he'll tell me that.
Well, and I did.
Sorry, well, we're going to disagree on that one.
Okay.
He believed this.
Yeah.
I think I mean, I think it's quite clear he believed it.
Now, should he have believed it?
I mean, I think some of the stuff that was coming out from, you know, people like Sidney Powell
was to me unbelievable.
And by the way, we told her that on the air.
We said, hey, this seems incredible.
You better come on with some evidence and prove this.
And she never, she never was able to do that.
But still, regardless, it doesn't matter whether you think or, you know, Bill Barr thinks
or, you know, that Jack Smith thinks that this was obvious.
It's him.
It's him.
And there's, as far as I know, certainly not in the indictment, any evidence that he actually
believed he had lost this election and was trying to go ahead with this anyway.
He believed that he won and he was getting screwed and he was doing what he could to try
to overturn that.
Now, there's all sorts of questions about what he did and whether you like it or not.
You make all those distinctions all you want.
But if you're talking about his mindset, I think this mindset's pretty clear.
When we lose one of our service members or.
first responders, the tragedy doesn't end on that day, especially for their families.
Who's there to help pick up the pieces? Tunnel to Towers is. When veterans who have served
our country end up living on the streets, who reaches out with a hand of help? Tunnel to
towers does. If the country doesn't remember those who fight and die and what they fight
and die four were lost. The foundation in the line of duty programs from tunnel to towers,
the gold star fallen first responders, the smart home, the veterans homelessness programs.
They're all dedicated to honoring our nation's heroes and their families. And their never forget
programs engage people in 9-11 remembrances all across the country. They are hosting 80 runs,
walks, climbs per year. They have dozens of gal-fellers.
golf outings and barbecues, and they work to educate kids of all ages to help our nation
never forget what happened on 9-11 and what it means to us today.
More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation goes to
these programs directly.
Never forget the sacrifices our country's greatest heroes have made for us.

The Glenn Beck.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Wow, we have just a slew of really great shows coming.
I've been up at the ranch during the summer, and I am learning so much.
I think I found my next Woodrow Wilson.
I think I found the guy who did possibly as much damage, if not more.
and this guy is a guy you've never heard of.
And he has,
he totally changed the course of our country, intentionally.
You know, he knew what Woodrow Wilson was trying to do.
And he's like, okay, I got this.
I know how to do this.
And he changed absolutely everything,
all the way to your local government.
And I can't wait to share his name.
I'm still doing research on it,
but I can't wait to share.
Learning so much this summer.
By the way,
it's something Tanya,
and I have dedicated ourselves to do.
Spend an hour every day learning something new.
You know, we're going to spend an hour when I get home.
Learning how to play the piano.
Learn something, anything new that is worthwhile.
Spend an hour and you'll change your life.
All right.
Back with Kurt Cameron.

Legacy Box. You know
all those old
VHS tapes that you have? I've got
tapes that I don't even know what they are. I really don't know. It's like what machine took this?
I don't even recognize this tape. But there's memories on those tapes and they are they are going
to disintegrate over time. They're not meant to to last more than 10 years and especially in
our garage or our attic where too many of them are. Digitizing your old media with legacy

preserving your recordings so they're safe forever. You know that I collect American history,
but American history really, it's not proven unless we can show our own American history,
how we lived, how we grew up, what things were really like. We have to preserve these things.

Kirk Cameron is joining us now.
Hi, Kirk. How are you?
Hey, Glenn. I'm doing great.
Thanks so much for having me on.
Appreciate you. And thanks for the compliment about all around good guy, but remember, I'm an actor. I could be faking this whole thing.
I know you all enough to know you are not faking it. But, Kirk, what you're doing with libraries, I think is so important. The American Library Association, every local library should distance themselves right now. And the people of the community should demand it. Get away from the American Library Association. They are corrupt and go.
going in the opposite direction.
That's just my opinion.
I don't want to make that your opinion.
Well, I think your opinion is comporting with truth and reality.
The director of the ALA is a self-described Marxist.
And the lady that we've been tangoing with,
who's the director of the Office of Intellectual Freedom and Diversity,
is the one who has been caught on video teaching librarians how to block
American families, specifically families of faith, who like me and want to come with their children
and read books to their kids tomorrow morning as part of our event called See You at the Library.
So the ALA is really teaching libraries all across the country how to break the law and engage in open
religious discrimination. But as you know, there's the divine hand of providence behind this whole thing
and the story just gets better and better because it's only tripling and quadrupling the size of the audience.
We now have 300 public libraries that are signed up for tomorrow,
and that's representing 45 states across the country,
and they're bringing thousands and tens of thousands of people into the library to read books
that are about true religion and virtue.
These are the indispensable supports of America that will cause
Marxism to be a thing of the past if it takes root again.
So I highly recommend.
Where can you get that list of what libraries are participating?
Go to bravebooks.com.
That's bravebooks.com.
Click on the tab called See You at the library.
And there's a map of the United States.
You can just zoom in and find your state, your county, your libraries.
And there's, again, over 300 of them.
I can't express enough to you, the listener, that please get involved in this.
Please go tomorrow and make a statement and an impact.
Come in love and peace and unity and harmony.
But make an impact in your library.
And then don't let it rest there.
Go to your city council.
Go to your mayor.
Go to your city leaders.
And insist that they get out of the American life.
Library Association. There is no reason. It is just as dangerous, if not more so, than the teachers
unions. They have been completely hijacked. No matter what they say, they are Marxists, they are
teaching garbage to our children. They do not have the American values that we hold traditionally.
I don't want to see any book burnings or anything else, but there is such a thing as appropriate
books, inappropriate sections.
And I'm sorry, but America has always had, and people call us prudes for this.
I don't think there's anything wrong with it.
There used to be beads at the door where you'd have to go in and you'd see things.
We don't share those things with our children.
We just don't do it.
It's not healthy for them.
Absolutely agree with you with you, Glenn.
And it's so interesting.
I mean, it's the height of hypocrisy, right?
Those who are afraid of book burnings, those who are saying,
hey, no, don't ban our books.
Don't ban our books.
We want to teach children pornographic material
and how to have sexual acts with one another
and change their genders and pronouns and all that.
And yet they are the very same people
who are wanting to block and deny access
to families of faith who want to talk about faith, hope, and love.
But I love the way all this plays out
because it's really firing up the parents and the grandparents.
They're coming out in droves, pastors,
state senators like Marco Rubio and Ashcroft and Kramer and others,
state governors are coming and participating.
County commissioners, mayors, we have celebrities coming to read children's books at the libraries.
And, you know, I want parents to understand that there is no more powerful position in the United States
than being a mom or a dad or a grandma or a grandpa.
Change does not begin at the White House.
It begins at your house.
And, Glenn, you've been a champion of this for decades.
you celebrate freedom events,
you celebrate love events.
We've got to have a ground game
and not be winers.
We've got to become winners
by putting seat to our face
and our convictions.
And that's what this Saturday is all about.
And I will tell you,
showing up is the first step.
I'm going to check the map
when we finish here, Kirk.
And I'm going to see if there's a library
near me and I will go myself on Saturday.
I'd be more than willing to read one of the books
for the kids.
But I will tell you this, that it is so vital that you get involved and take back your libraries.
I mean, I just did a huge fundraiser for a school and a library here in my neighboring town for where my ranch is up in Idaho.
And I'm going to ask the library board, are you members of the American Library Association?
If so, why?
Why?
That should change.
Yeah, that's a great question.
And there are states that have already pulled themselves out of the ALA.
And I've talked to a governor recently about doing the same thing.
Many are already in the process of doing that as well.
And when you think about it, how crazy is it that you would block families from coming to your local library?
Glenn, we have three libraries I'm going to tomorrow.
I'm getting in a plane.
And I'm going to three libraries in three states in one day.
And one of them is in Alabama.
Alabama just canceled the event.
and they cited capacity concerns.
Well, listen, we're polite.
We stand in line.
First come, first serve.
People are happy to stand out in the rain in the parking lot.
We've done it many times before.
We just think songs like, God bless America, and we pray for each other.
And they tried to cancel it again, and they're not right in doing that.
And the crazy thing is libraries are becoming a bit obsolete and irrelevant to the younger generation
with all of the ebooks and online learning options.
And so they should be grateful.
They should be embracing this family-friendly movement that's bringing people to their libraries.
Instead, they're so, they've drunk the woke Kool-Aid, they're so filled with fear or something that they're cutting off their nose despite their face.
Yeah, I really, I don't understand the use of the public funds for libraries when you can access every book ever written online.
I mean, I like libraries.
I think the printed book is very, very important.
I happen to agree with Carnegie when Carnegie built libraries all across the country,
and he built them in poor cities, and he gave them the library of the king,
what the king had in his library at that time.
So that way, every single American, no matter how poor, could have the education of a prince or a king,
and change their status.
believe in all of that stuff but i got to tell you when the library is no longer a place that you can
go in and learn and learn how to learn how to ask questions how to compare in contrast to say wait a minute
they say this they say this which one is true when it is being guided down the path of evil and uh and
just grotesque ideas like pedophilia uh and uh and
and mutilation of our children, I'm sorry.
Why am I paying for that?
I don't believe in it.
Yeah.
Why am I paying for it?
Well, I sure agree.
And this really gets us down to our fundamental ideas about what is good and what is evil, what is light and what is darkness.
And when we, when we unhitch ourselves, when we disconnect from those transcendent values, those, those heavenly principles that God's given us, we just, we spiral out of
control into a moral swamp and a darkness that we, we become, we become so used to it that we
think it's normal.
And this young generation is growing up that way.
They desperately need us to get back in the game and rescue them and bring them back to their
blessing and their protection.
And Glenn, I appreciate you and all that you do and have been doing for decades to help
Let's see that.
Well, Kirk, I thank you very much as well.
And I have to tell you, you have two children's books out as you grow.
And this one, I just love, I've wanted to talk to you for a while now and just say,
thank you for saying this.
Your other book is pride becomes, comes before the fall.
I have been saying that for a while now where it's like, we need to be humble.
And pride, isn't it interesting that the left is pushing pride?
when we know that's a deadly sin.
We know that's a deadly sin.
What are we doing?
Yeah, we were just listening to that ad on your program here about Pride parades.
Could you imagine if we just swapped it out for some of the other deadly sins and we had floss parades?
Let's have some greed parade.
Top of some gluttony parades and some lust and envy parades.
And Pride is the pregnant mother that gives birth to every other form of evil.
pride separates us from each other in marriage and relationships with our kids pride separates us from
god we got to humble ourselves that's the pathway to blessing and love and relationship kids should know
that amen kirk it's good to talk to you i haven't talked to you in a while it's good to talk to you
and i follow what you're doing and i i salute you thank you so much well you as well glen thank you
I hope you have a great weekend.
And everybody, if you get a chance, find a library, go there and join this movement of recapturing the hearts and minds of our kids.
God bless you.
And it's bravebooks.com, bravebooks.com, where you can find where there is a library near you.
Kirk, thanks. God bless.
All right.
Have a great, have a good day.
Thanks.
There was a time, and you know the time when I was talking about, when it was nothing for you to pack a days full of life's little.
adventures when you could spend time with the people you love and it was accented by the energy
and desire to get out and do things. You still may have that desire, but you don't do it anymore,
maybe because of the pain. Pain, it comes slowly sometimes and it steals your daily world
tennis game or a pleasant afternoon walk at the time. It steals all those one by one.

You know, one of the biggest tricks by both the deep state and the corrupt left is convincing the American people that they don't exist.
If we allow that to persist and we allow ourselves to be blackpilled, that magic trick could hand them the next election.
And they have mobilized unlike anything I've ever seen before.
This is much more than the 2020 election.
In 2024, 2020 is going to look like child's play.
but they have exposed themselves and their methods in doing so.
But for some reason, nobody will expose it.
I told you in 2020 exactly what their game plan was.
Unfortunately, nobody in the GOP even listened.
You, I exposed this on Wednesday night.
Top of next hour, I'm going to go through some of it and introduce you to some organizations,
some NGOs that you've never heard of.
and that's really weird because they're very well connected and doing things in a very big way.
I'll show it to you on the TV show that was on Wednesday.
You can find that at YouTube or blazedtv.com slash Glenn.
You'll find the Wednesday night special and I'll show you the documents and everything else.
But coming up next hour, I'll show you the electoral machine that they have built that goes back all the way before the Obama election.
but now it is churning like in ways you can't even imagine.
I'll share some of that information next hour on the program,
but also don't miss the Wednesday night special.
It was a couple of days ago on Blaze TV.
You can get it on demand now on blazTV.com slash Glenn or on my YouTube channel.
I think the black pill thing you're talking about there, Glenn, is really important.
I see this a lot online of people so depressed.
about the state of things that they don't think they can do anything, you know, and the election's a good
example of it. People say, okay, the 2020 election, a lot of people think, you know, hey, this was
stolen. And of course, because it was stolen, Democrats got in power. And because they are in power,
it's going to be worse this time. So what's the point? What's the point of going out and voting?
What's the point of doing any of this if we think this is going to happen again? Look, I mean, you know,
did you have a responsibility? Yeah. And, yeah. I mean, still, last night, I, I, I, I,
found out some stuff doing some research i found out some stuff that i'm not prepared to share yet uh
that i i i spent a couple of hours going why why am i getting up in the morning and doing anything
why am i not just concentrating in my family you know uh because it's too late it is way too late
and then you know after a couple of hours of feeling like a pity party and feeling like
oh we're never going to win we have a responsibility to stay
stand up. And if, and if we don't stand up, it will disintegrate right in front of our eyes.
It's, it's, it is, uh, a self-fulfilling prophecy. You can't be black billed. Yeah. And, you know,
we were just talking to Kirk Cameron, you know, if you're a person of faith too. I mean,
I think you look at it as you need to do what your role is, right? You can't control the outcome.
It's not really up to you. So, you know, you go out and you do what you can do and you do your part.
and you can't control whether the entire society and civilization collapses next week.
It's just not really up to you.
It's not really your domain, which is probably good.
We're not, human beings are not necessarily good at predicting all those things.
And everyone's vision for how things are supposed to be, not always the right vision.
So you go out and you do what you believe is right.
And, you know, you kind of damn the consequences in some regard.
you know, it's like you
you might be made fun of
you might be mocked, you might be kicked
off of where you're supposed to be online
you might
you might lose you know access to your job
or your livelihood
and someone your friend might hate you
that used to love you and all those things
and like the point of all this I think
is to still do the right thing
in that circumstance
yeah
yeah yeah it really is
by the way I'm looking at the story hour

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
It is Friday.
Now, I don't want to get involved in the circus.
And it really is a circus.
I mean, it is just, hey, look the other way.
And over here in ring number three.
So you take your eye off the ball.
And this whole, did President Obama drown his chef?
Come on.
Stop it.
right now. But there is something else that is, I don't know, I can't decide if this is circus or not
circus. Former President Barack Obama once wrote that he fantasized about having sexual relations
with other men, say biographer David Garrow. The former president expressed his fantasies
in a letter to a girlfriend at the time. Garrow told Tablet Magazine in the interview that the
letter had been redacted and is currently in the possession of Emory University. The ex-girlfriend
provided a copy of the letter, but had redacted one paragraph. Garrow told the tablet, who said
she revealed the paragraph was about homosexuality. I'm quoting, sometimes right about when
the Rising Star came out, Alex indirectly sold the original, sold these letters, and they ended up
at Emory. Garrow told the tablet while discussing it in his 2017 book of Obama. Rising Star, which
touched on Obama's reportedly dreaming about homosexuality.
So Emory put out a press release saying,
we've gotten these rare letters by Barack Obama with no mention of this paragraph that it was too
sensitive.
None of the papers mentioned it.
Emory didn't mention it.
So he says, he wrote to a colleague, said, go to the Emory archives.
He spent his whole life at Emory, but they won't let him take pictures, Gero said,
later in the interview.
So Harvey has to sit there with the pensions.
and copy out the graph where Barack writes to Alex about his repeated fantasies about making love to men.
Now, this is kind of important because when he got into office, he was against gay marriage and everything else and and tried to say that, you know, he was, you know, family values kind of guy.
He later revealed that he wasn't a family values kind of guy, but this has been out for a while now.
And why is it none of us know about this?
Yeah, it's a really weird story, honestly.
But so it does not appear to be some massive conspiracy theory or anything like that.
And I also don't think the part about him fantasizing about having sex with men is nearly the most important part that's coming out of this.
It's a very long article.
It's in tablet magazine.
It's very much worth your time, though.
And it comes from, so this guy, David Garrow.
Now, Garrow is a well-known author.
He wrote the FBI and Martin Luther King Jr., which is a very highly respected book.
He won the Pulitzer Prize for a biography bearing the cross.
He was one of the three historian consultants who animated the monumental PBS documentary Eyes on the Prize.
as well as the author of a landmark history of abortion rights, liberty and sexuality.
So he's not like some hardcore conservative activists trying to prove some conspiracy theory.
That's not his profile at all.
And this book came out.
I think we've had him on the show before, haven't we?
We should have him on again about this because I didn't even know this book wasn't even out.
Right.
And that's what the strangest part about this.
It's making the rounds this week because of this article and interview and tablet.
However, the book came out in 2017.
Now, if you think back to when this period is, like Trump has just come into office, you know, the left is going insane.
They're protesting in the streets.
There's all the stuff going on.
And the Obama era had just ended and we were all kind of happy on the right to be rid of it.
I don't think any of us had any interest in reading an Obama early years biography in 2017.
That's when this book came out.
And it came out really to very little fanfare.
I mean, didn't really capture anyone's attention at the time.
However, what Garrow did was essentially a lot of the work that we had requested to be done by journalists this entire time.
All these stories Barack Obama told about his early years, can someone go find the people he was talking about and ask them these questions?
And he did this.
In fact, I think he said he talked to a thousand people about Barack Obama.
history for this book, which came out in 2017.
One of the fascinating stories here is about sort of the origin story of Barack Obama.
In his book, Dreams from My Father, he talked about his change to accepting himself as a black man,
right?
His accepting the black consciousness that he was born to illustrate.
Right.
Which was the change came because he broke up with a racist girlfriend, right?
Right?
Kind of, yeah.
Wasn't that the story?
Yeah.
He, this is from the tablet article.
In Dreams for My Father, Obama describes a passionate disagreement following a play
by African-American playwright August Wilson in which the young protagonist defends
his insipient embrace of the black racial consciousness against his girlfriend's white-identified
liberal universalism.
As readers, we know that the stakes of this decision would be more than simply personal.
The black American man that Obama wills into being in this scene would go on to
to marry a black woman from the south side of Chicago named Michelle Robinson.
And after a meteoric rise, win the presidency, of course, as the first black president of the United States.
Yet what Garrow documented after tracking down and interviewing this girlfriend, right?
So someone found the girlfriend.
And what's fascinating about this is he's no longer president of the United States when this book comes out.
And Garrow seems to be the first person who's ever even attempted to actually find the other person in the story.
We're just...
After about 10 years of that being in print.
Yeah, well, I mean, and longer than that from the actual book, right?
Like this is, this goes back.
Oh, the book itself was even earlier than that.
So. Oh, what's it really?
Yeah, throughout the entire rise of Barack Obama to being a senator, to being president,
and then his entire eight years in office, nobody bothered to actually find out if any of this was true,
which is incredible.
So he found the woman who is, by the way, not in witness protection.
I mean, she's a professor.
Like she was findable this whole time.
And again, she's a liberal.
I don't think that she was going to talk to necessarily conservatives who tried to find her.
But Garrow did find her.
And she said the fight did occur.
However, the fight was over a very different subject.
In her telling, the quarrel that ended the couple's relationship was not about Obama's self-identification as a black man.
And the impetus was not a play about the American black experience, but an exhibit at Chicago Spurtis
Institute about the
1961 trial of
Adolf Eichmann
at the time
what? Yeah
Chicago politics were being
roiled by a black mayoral aide
named Steve Coakley
who in a series of lectures
organized by Louis Farrakhan
they accused
Jewish doctors in Chicago
of infecting black babies with AIDS
as part of a genocidal plot
against African Americans. The episode
highlighted a deep
within the city's power circle,
with some prominent black officials supporting Coakley and others calling for his firing.
In the girlfriend's recollection, which set off the quarrel and precipitated the end of the
couple's relationship, was Obama's stubborn refusal after seeing the exhibit and the swirl
of the Cochley affair to condemn black racism.
I mean, this ties perfectly into, you know, the Jeremiah Wright's.
stuff, right? Like, this is...
Correct.
Crucial. This, Jeremiah Wright, remember, was saying exactly what Cochley was saying, that
AIDS was invented to kill black people. And Farrakhan.
And what Farrakhan was saying. And Farrakhan.
She insists that what upset her that day was Obama's inability to condemn those comments.
It was not Obama's blackness that bothered her, but that he would not condemn anti-Semitism.
Obama's, of course, they go into this and he goes to ask the question, well, whose story is
correct here. We don't know, of course, but in evaluating the truthfulness of these two competing
accounts, it seems worth noting that the girlfriend is something more than a woman scorned by a man
who would later become president. Obama asked her, Obama asked her to marry him twice. She refused
him both times before going on to achieve her own high-level professional success. A student
goes into her history. She also, scholarship aside, there's another reason to assume that
she would be less likely to misremember an incident involving race and anti-Semitism than Obama.
As it turns out, her paternal grandparents were members of the Dutch resistance whose role
sheltering a Jewish child in their home for three years led to their recognition as righteous among
the nations.
We've talked about that distinction many times.
It's incredibly important.
In that context, at least, it seems quite likely that she would remember the particulars of a fight
with Obama related to anti-Semitism and be turned off by his response,
while Obama's version to the fight has the feel of an anecdote positioned, if not invented,
to buttress the character arc of the protagonist of his memoir,
which positioned him for a career in public life.
And I think that plays true.
It brings true to me, right?
If you have that family history,
you're not going to forget the core of this fight,
especially when that person winds uprising to become president of the United States later on.
Yeah.
Yeah. It's something that you could see, you know, in you or in me where we could be like,
no, I think that was about, and you can conflate different things.
But if your breakup is precipitated by something and it is so personal to you, you know,
your grandparents were righteous among the nations.
Holy cow.
It's big.
You would remember that.
Yeah.
You'd remember that clearly.
Not that your grandparents were Jewish or.
involved in, you know, anything. But they were part of the Jewish or the, uh, the resistance,
the Dutch resistance to free the Jews from the Nazis and they, they risk their lives enough to be
righteous among the nations. That is a specific designation given to a very few amount of people who
did unbelievable things to save Jews. Yeah. If that's your background, you could see how it might be a
tad annoying that your boyfriend is
following the teachings of Louis Farrakhan, right?
Like this would not be the formula for a long
lasting relationship, which is to her word,
why it ended.
Imagine how different things would have been
had she married him.
I mean, just the relationship
between Israel and the United States.
If she would have married him, I mean, because we both
know the effect a really good woman has on somebody and I'm not saying she's not
she's not I'm sure she yeah she is sure she would never speak to me but I would
love to talk to her and not about Obama about her grandparents I mean that's
incredible incredible and if if she would have married him how different
things could have been yeah and I tell you kids get married have have children
have lots of children.
They are in the end the only thing that matters.
Your whole life will be fulfilled with your family.
But marry the right person.
Really important.
Yeah.
Mary for values, not hotness.
I know it's tough.
Yeah, but she's so hot.
Yeah, what are her values?
Mary for values.
And then I mean,
it can be done.
Stu and I both did it.
Find the hot women that have great values.
Yeah.
And then get completely lucky that they'll talk to you.
That's in my path.
Well, actually, I think what you have to do is become, well, no, not in my case,
but I think in your case, you had to be somewhat successful.
In my case, I was a completely loser.
I was literally an intern when I met my wife.
I was a producer, the lowest level producer when I met her.
She came along before any level of success.
Yeah, but you were young.
She was young.
Yeah, we were dumb.
We were young and dumb, and that worked.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, Glenn, can I highlight this point one more time, too, that we made a couple minutes ago.
Perhaps the most revealing thing about her account with a fight with Obama is that not one reporter in America bothered to interview her before Garrow found her near the end of Obama's presidency.
As Obama's living girlfriend and closest friend during the 1980s, she is probably the single most informed and credible source about the inner life.
of a young man whose election was accompanied by hopes of sweeping post peaceful change in America,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Like, no one bothered to find her until Obama was almost done with his presidency.
Remarkable commentary on the world of journalism.
Let's see if we can get him on.
I mean, we might as well try if we could get her too, but I doubt she would come on.

The Glenback.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
We've been talking about a book that came out a few years ago by David Garrow that everybody
seemed to miss, Rising Star, the making of Barack Obama.
Yeah.
And another part of this that's fascinating is the idea that after Barack Obama leaves
office, he, unlike every other president, leave, it stays.
Washington in D.C.
And now their excuse for this was basically,
I think it was Sasha needed to finish high school,
right? Like so they didn't want to pull out of high school.
But what they talk about is that they basically formed
a version of a shadow government inside of Washington,
meaning they had all the power players coming to them.
They didn't go to Martha's Vineyard the whole time and live out there.
They stayed in Washington and continued to highly influence policy
and, you know,
all these things,
directly from inside Washington and no reporters,
there were no reporters staking out the Obama mansion to see who was coming and going.
Correct.
Like you'd expect.
They just let this all go uncovered.
And he was influencing obviously not just what was going on during the Trump administration,
but then, of course, heavily influencing who was inserted into the Biden administration,
which, you know, many people commented is the third Obama term.
Right.
And he, the author is not.
A conservative.
Right.
No.
That's why you've never heard of this book.
It came out in 2017.
It's called Rising Star.

What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
this is the Glenn Beck Program.
So I don't know if you had a chance to see the show on Wednesday night,
but it was incredibly important that you get the information.
So I'm going to share a lot of the information that we gave you on the Wednesday night special
on Blaze TV because you need to know what you're up against for Decision 24.
We do that in 60 seconds.
Our sponsor is Gold Line, and the main reason why I feel it's necessary to prepare for disaster,
why I come on this program every day and encourage you to prepare to diversify,
put some money in gold or silver or land, whatever it is, is because I'm a student of history,
and I know what has happened in the past when countries do what we are doing.
When we were downgraded, yet again by the ratings company,
Moody's this last week.
Janet Yellen seemed shocked.
She shouldn't seem shocked.
We're devaluing our money like crazy, like nobody's business really quickly.
I think it was a dollar in the 1930s is now worth two cents.
If you had saved that same dollar and had that purchasing power in 1930,
that dollar would be worth two cents today when you went in.
Well, they're devaluing it a lot faster now.
Just 3% inflation, yearly 3%, in 10 years will mean you've lost almost 40 cents on every dollar you make.
And it's going to come faster and faster because we're spending more and more money.
And God forbid, another shoe falls like war or some sort of real civil unrest.
Please, will you do yourself a favor and call Gold Line right now at 866 Gold Line?
They're waiting for your call.
They have a special offer on their historic $5 gold liberty and Indian head coins.
These are the ones I buy and ask them why I buy them.
With every tube or box of every 20, the $5 gold liberty and Indian head coins you acquire this week,
you'll receive five of the one-out silver gold line bars absolutely free.
Be prepared.
Call goldline.
866 Goldline or goldline.
All right, it has been three years since the 2020 election.
Three years, I'm sorry, since the most secure election in American history,
followed by January 6th, the most damaging, most dangerous time ever in American history,
at least since the Civil War.
Okay.
So what have we learned?
Well, we learned that the left was involved in a lot of what we've,
saw on January 6th, the DOJ is not telling us the truth. The FBI had people in informants and it could
have been stopped easily beforehand, but was that really the point of the FBI getting involved?
We don't know. We know there were really bad people there on both sides, most likely.
And we also know we knew it on January 6th. That's not the way America reacts.
But we have also learned that some was wrong.
and we should have a plan to make sure that our elections are secure for 2024.
But I don't think anyone on any side is serious about cleaning this up.
Everybody wants to use it to their advantage.
Let me share some things that I think are vitally important.
I'm going to introduce you in the next hour to some organizations that you've never heard of.
And you need to do your homework quickly and share it with all of your friends,
locally. Per the Associated Press, around a quarter of all voters used a mail-in ballot during
the 2016 and 2018 elections. But in 2020, because of COVID, that number doubled. It was the
first time in history that a majority of voters didn't cast their ballots in person on election
day. So it was the first time in history this had happened, but also the most secure
ever in history.
Hmm.
I just don't think that's mathematically possible.
And here's why.
The left and the deep state are trying to make it a crime for you to even ask,
was it really secure?
But there are four conditions that cause people to question election results.
These are the four conditions.
Make it easier to fake one's identity on a ballot.
Two, make it easier to manipulate.
votes. Three, lengthen the chain of custody for the ballots. Four, flood the system and overwhelm it.
Mass mail-in voting, the most in all of history, covers nearly all of this. And as I'll show you
later in the program, the left is planning to make this not only the norm, but vastly expanded in
24. Now, do they actually believe that mail-in ballots are secure and a best way to conduct elections?
No, no. In fact, they were against it forever until they geared up and made sure that that chaos
bends in their favor. In 2005, Jimmy Carter came and co-chaired a bipartisan commission on
elections. The result was the Carter-Baker report.
And they detailed in that, Jimmy Carter, how state should increase voter ID laws and be leery of mail-in voting and to halt all ballot harvesting.
So in short, the exact opposite of what the Democrats are doing now, Jimmy Carter was saying, you've got to do these things.
Otherwise, you won't be able to have a fair and secure election.
All of this was just as obvious then it is now.
but the Obama campaign doubled down on these facts when he ran for president.
He in 2008, Barack Obama and every House Democrat member in Florida
fought the proposal to conduct the Clinton Obama primary by mail-in ballots.
And here's the quote.
The state's U.S. House members objected to the proposal and Obama campaign manager, David Pluff,
said there was deep concerns, real deep concerns about the reliability and security of mail-in voting.
Okay.
So when did the left have a change of heart on this?
Because they clearly knew then what the rest of us know today, and it wasn't just four years later,
that U.S. news and the rest of the mainstream media had no issue.
issues at all stating these facts. Four years later, voter fraud is proven election manipulation
tactic. What do you know? They even in this article detail a case where party activists were
convinced, I'm sorry, were convicted of voter fraud for forging absentee ballots. Listen to this quote.
Two veteran Democratic political operatives said voter fraud is an accepted way of winning elections.
end quote now do you think they had to come to jesus moment and now they just don't agree with that
statement it was the broad consensus that mass mail-in voting was less secure they said it we said it
jimmy carter said it but now it's part of the most secure system in history how how what was done
putting drop-off boxes all across our neighborhoods? Really?
They clearly had and have a plan.
Now, the question is, what have we done since 2020 to make sure it doesn't happen again?
Well, let me show you if you happen to be watching Blaze TV,
the states that have made changes to secure their election process.
Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana,
Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming.
Now, look at the states that stayed the same or got worse.
Connecticut, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Maryland.
You notice any trends here?
Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico,
New York, Rhode Island, Washington, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Arizona.
did I mention Wisconsin?
That is, that's incredible.
That's not good.
These are the states that have gotten worse since.
What has the GOP been doing?
What have they been doing?
There's a report from Voting Rights Lab.org that shows from 2021 to 2023,
only 23% of election laws passed have been to harden and secure elections.
That means 77% of all election laws passed in the last three years since 2020.
77% of them are to loosen the standards.
The left is winning and we haven't even started or recognized it.
And I think there's a reason.
I think the Uniparty comes to play here.
Now, Donald Trump in 2016 won by 80,000 votes in three states.
He won Michigan, 10,000 votes.
Pennsylvania, 47 and Wisconsin by 22.
But if I throw that map up again, all three of those states are now worse off than they were in 2020.
All three.
Can the GOP comment on this?
Because it looks like a dereliction of duty, quite honestly.
The Democrats, as always, have a plan.
The Republicans do not.
Now, this has been in the works for a long time, and I want to introduce you to some of the operations that are now happened.
This Death Star is almost fully operational.
And it's going to work like a Death Star, unless we stand up in our communities and get involved and informed.
And don't take no for an answer.
All right.
I'm going to go there in just 60 seconds.
Let me tell you about Rough Greens.
Donald wrote in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.
He said, I've never seen my dog lick the bowl clean.
I mean, she does it all the time now.
And it's because she's looking for any remaining traces of rough greens.
She loves it.
Thank you so much.
No doubt about it, Donald.
Your dog seems to be a huge fan.
Mine is a huge fan as well.
I just in the break went to feed my dog, and he ran to the bowl, which he never used to do.
It's a dog food.

That's 833 G-L-E-N-N-33, Roughgreens.com.
Also, let me tell you about Tom in Texas.
And in Texas, we grow a little different variety of people.
Okay.
Tom is a Texan.
He's 85 years old.
He still goes to work every single day.
It seems like the only parts of Tom that aren't getting older were his,
the only parts that were getting older were his back's, his back and his hips.
And over the past few years, they started giving him a lot of grief throughout the day.
He was finding it harder and harder to get up in the morning and get his way into work and do the things that he loved.
Then he discovered relief factor.
Shortly after he started taking it, the back and hip pain went pretty much away.
And they've stayed away.
The three-week quick start.
Now, 1995, it's a trial pack.
It's not a drug developed by doctors and hundreds of thousands of people have.
ordered relief factor and 70% of them go on to order more. Find out if that's you and you can get
your life back. It's relief.com. 800, the number four relief. 800, the number four relief, relief,
relief factor.com. Feel the difference. 10 seconds, station ID. All right, one of the things that really
makes me angry about the GOP is their apparent complete befuddlement when they talk about winning
elections. They have no clue why we didn't do well in both the general and the midterm elections.
It was a shock. This is craziness. What is wrong with you? I told you earlier the left has been
building this electoral machine for years. Over a decade now. How can the other side in Washington
be this clueless? Why are they all standing in a circle pointing in each other like a Spider-Man
meme? All of the information is there. The problem is,
the mainstream media refuses to cover it, so you don't know it, and Republican conservatives refuse to believe it's happening.
But it is happening.
And if we don't expose everything and put a big spotlight on what's going on, we are going to lose again.
I'm not telling you to this to black pill you.
In fact, I'm telling you, so you're not blackpilled.
You know, hope without works.
There's nothing.
Faith without works.
Well, I got faith in the party, but you're not doing.
anything to help move the ball that way?
It means nothing.
It means nothing.
I'm going to give a huge tip to the organization Restoration of America,
who has been doing an amazing job at uncovering the left's election strategy.
There is an article there.
Listen to this line, quote,
how the voter participation center aims to cement democratic rule by remaking America's
electorate.
remaking the electorate. Now that seems kind of disturbing and alarming. Do you as a Republican,
do you as a voter even know who or what the voter participation center even is?
Find out about it, voter participations.org. They go back all the way back to 2003 in the wake of
the Republican victories headlined by George W. Bush. Back then, their name was women's voices,
women's vote and it's a tax exempt 501c3 the stated goal of the organization is to get
more people registered to vote now before I go any further want to clarify what is
and isn't allowed from a 501 C3 to do what they want to do and participate in
voter registration and get out the vote drives from the IRS the organization
cannot conduct activities quote in a biased
manner that favors or opposes one or more candidates. Now that's interesting because in 2008,
NPR reported strange robocalls from this organization. They were sending confusing messages
aimed at black neighborhoods and these calls appeared to be helping Hillary Clinton over Barack
Obama. But did they have any connections to the Clintons? Well, let's look. Their founder, Paige Gardner,
worked on Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign.
Okay.
They're just trying to get everybody registered all women.
Also, John Podesta, Bill Clinton's former chief of staff, was a board member.
And Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, Maggie Williams, was on their leadership team and a consultant.
So, yeah, I mean, there's a few ties to Hillary Clinton.
Why wasn't this investigated?
Why were they allowed just to rebrand to the voter president?
Participation Center and maybe more importantly, what have they been doing ever since?
I'll introduce you to something else. You probably have never heard the Democrat super PAC called Mind the Gap.
A leaked internal strategy memo revealed that Mind the Gap was focusing on mass mail in ballot initiatives by the voter participation center and their sister organization, the Center for Voter Information.
The stated reason and gold for use.
using these organizations is stated on the same page.
Quote, on a pre-tax basis, they are two to five times more cost effective at netting additional
Democratic votes.
Huh.
Now that does not sound very nonpartisan, does it?
How does the IRS allow this to continue?
Especially in the era of mass mail-in voting?
Well, I mean, that's why they need those 87,000 IRS agents, right?
And remember what I told you earlier, for the first time in our history, the majority of voters did not vote in person during the last election.
So what's going on here?
Well, check out this quote from Restoration of America found in the book, The Victory Lab, the secret of winning campaigns.
This is from a liberal journalist, Sasha Eisenberg.
She writes, quote, even though the voter participation center was officially nonpartisan for tax purposes,
It was no secret that the goal of all its efforts was to generate new votes for Democrats.
So if it's no secret, what's going on?
Where's the IRS?
We know that.
But where the hell have the Republicans been?
Why aren't they doing something about it?
While the GOP was counting on Joe Biden's low polling numbers to propel Donald Trump to victory,
the voter participation center went to work.
Now, we're showing you a document if you happen to be watching Blaze TV.
right now. This is directly from their website. They were responsible for more than 360 million
registration mailings. Just in 2020, half of those 360 million registration mailings went to key
battleground states, places that Trump won in 2016, but narrowly lost in 2020. For the midterms,
The voter participation center sent out 85 million mailings to 32 states.
Do you remember how the Federman election shocked the entire planet?
You watched him on stage in the debate and you're like, what the heck?
I mean, how could this guy possibly win?
Well, as we said at the time, but we didn't have the names behind it, Pennsylvania was the main target for the voter participation center.
They sent out 14.2 million mailers.
82% of those landed in the mailboxes in October before the debate.
By the time of the debate, 700,000 people had already mailed in their ballots.
Federman would win by 263,000 votes.
Same in Georgia.
I could go on and on and on.
But the 2020 debacle is now the norm, and I'll show you what their plans are for the 2020.

Last Wednesday night show, you can find it.
on my YouTube page and you can watch it on Blaze TV in the archives. It is my Wednesday night special
and it is involved deeply in what is happening for 2024 and how the Democrats are building a machine
and you know, they're open about it, but the Republicans refuse to do anything about it.
the left has built this electoral machine,
but it could never be so potent without the changes that were made during the pandemic.
Things like early voting and, you know, mass mail-in balloting.
It was also supposed to be temporary fixes.
That's what they've said.
But that was the crap.
The left was shoveling.
And we told you at the time, they're never going to go away.
It will never go away.
The end result is one of the most unprecedented.
elections in history where the ballots were flying in like confetti in a parade for an astronaut.
And with that in context, it kind of puts the left's extreme draconian response to COVID
in an entirely new light, doesn't it? The American conservative recently published a piece on the
left's plans for 2024 and it said this. It was never about protecting Americans from the
coronavirus. It was always about seizing power. If conservatives are to win in 2026,
24. They must be all in. That starts by understanding the left's playbook for meddling with 2024.
I agree. And, you know, I'd like to say it's not like there is a playbook out there, but there is a
playbook out there that everyone can read. Back in February, the Washington Post editorial board
highlighted five things that should be done to increase public confidence in the next election.
It was, you know, pretty much yada, yada, yada, testing voting machines, et cetera, et cetera. But the
Washington Post didn't come up with these ideas.
They were endorsed with the work of a left-leading nonprofit called the New Deal Forum.
Have you ever heard of that?
They're all about providing, quote, more than 40 specific action steps that officials should take ahead of the 2024 presidential election,
highlighting the vital role state and local officials play in our elections, including where,
how, and when Americans can vote.
Now, there's not a whole lot out there on this.
organization and that's really surprising because they are insanely connected. If you scroll through
their list of leaders, it includes Stacey Abrams, Corey Booker, Pete Buttigieg, Chris Coons. The laundry
list goes on and on of senators, representatives, mayors, council members, school board members, judges,
gubernatorial staff spread out all over the country. And it's kind of odd for a small, underreported
organization. Whatever is really going on, they are clearly leveraging their vast influence.
They recently published the list of states that are implementing their ideas. The states, Arkansas,
Oklahoma, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Minnesota, and Michigan. Some of those states look
kind of important if we want to win in 2024. So with all this influence and success, what's their
ultimate plan. Well, let's look at their playbook, which they have. It's actually called the
democracy playbook. It includes measures that would fully transform how America's vote.
Page 17 and 18, voter registration would completely change. They want automatic voter registration.
It can be done online on the same day as the vote. There's no way anyone would ever be able to take
advantage of that, right? It's totally secure. It would also allow pre-registration for kids who are
16. So when they turn 18, they're all ready to go. Now, this is totally not the preamble for 16-year-olds
to eventually vote. Sure, I'm surely, that's not what this is really about. No, because there
hasn't been legislation introduced to get that ball rolling. Oh, wait. The playbook also includes
expanding early voting, doubling down on absentee, mail-in voting, plopping down,
more of those totally secure drop boxes and look at this legislation to make sure that 16 year olds
can vote because the playbook says the ap told us they're secure they're secure and we're not
supposed to question just just know that it's the experts are telling you these are all of the
temporary solutions brought in for the pandemic but now they want this to be the new and permanent
system and why wouldn't they? This is the culmination to the plans they have been building and
perfecting for over a decade. Democrats of a hundred organizations like the voter participation
center targeting groups by the millions. And what do we have? Mitch McConnell? Until we get our
butts in gear and strengthen election systems in every single community and every single state,
We have no choice but to play the left's game here.
We need to triple down on how the left is using mass mailers to targeted areas like
battleground states.
The numbers are extremely clear.
This is how they won in 2020 and 2022.
We haven't even started.
And they're still changing the laws to skew to make it all worse.
Listen, I don't want to blackpill you.
I don't want to leave you with just bad news.
But I started the program today with a monologue that if you missed, you should go back and listen to it wherever you get your podcast.
But this is what I said two hours ago.
We can navigate this storm together.
Together.
We stand on the precipice of demanding times, laden with complex questions and potentially tougher answers.
But if we rally around our Bill of Rights, uphold our personal responsibility.
responsibility and acknowledge that we are not infallible, but neither are the corporations, the elites, the algorithms, nor governments. They're not omnipotent. God remains God and we are not him. That's the first thing we have to do. That's how we write a new chapter in our American story. Pay no attention to the internet mob, the angry, misguided malcontents who march,
burn and destroy or to the crazy reporters on networks that are telling you out and out lies and
to deny what you have just seen. It's not going to be changed by a puff up army of government
administrators or an all-powerful executive no matter what anybody tells you. What's going to change
this country is us. And I don't just mean conservatives. I mean all of us living our own
lives simply doing the next right thing and uniting under the banner that we all still hold
these ideas as self-evident truths that all men are created equal, endowed by their
creator with certain inalienable rights.
You know all of this.
You must live your life this way.
You must understand that the next line is to secure these rights, governments are instituted
among men and they derive their just powers.
from the consent of the governed.
So we are the ones that give them this power.
And it's only just power.
When have you seen just power recently?
By the way, the governed, that's you.
Not some distant pencil pusher that you never voted for.
Not some, you know, NGO that strips you of another writer opportunity under cover.
That's not the American governmental power, and it's not just.
We have to increase our efforts in exposing the deep state, not get blackpilled by all of it.
Know who God is and know that he is involved in our lives, and he is deeply involved in the rights of men.
There are people in places like the FBI and DOJ and State Department and all over the rest of the
bureaucracy that have their own agenda. It is not a just or American agenda. That agenda has nothing
to do with the will of the people, the consent of the governed. They can't get these things done
because you know they're wrong. So they have to rig the system. They have to dismantle the
American system that has restraints on the federal government, on the state government,
the local government, because the power comes from you. Exposing them works. This week has been
an amazing thing. It's been an amazing time. I have at the same time been so depressed. I'm like,
you've got to be kidding me. Look at how sloppy these people were. This mob, the mob should be
insulted that they call themselves a mob.
It's like the Keystone
cops. They're
so sloppy and arrogant.
And I can't believe that we have
had whistleblowers come out.
And they aren't undercover.
We know their names. We couldn't know
the names against Trump, but we know these guys.
And they are under fire.
And they are in danger. And they stood
up.
What happened with Devin Archer this week
is incredible.
But the good news is people are seeing,
it and more and more people every day slowly, but they are seeing it. Exposing this works.
We're seeing it in real time with the Biden crime family. You have the power to change all this,
but you won't soon. If you don't go to your local GOP, I mean your local GOP and start
strategizing on how you are going to make sure those ballots are confirmed, they are verified,
and only people who can be verified are to vote. You must sign up for this. Go to your state.
You've got to stop the erosion of your governance, your own governance over the federal
government. They get the power from you. It's time we govern over them and say no. Back in just a minute.
There's a raging battle in this country for our hearts and the souls and the minds really of our
children. If you pay attention to the news, you see pieces of it all the time and those pieces
add up fast. Did you see the audio from or the clip from NBC where they were talking about the kids
in a transgender camp and how wonderful that was.
Play this, will you?
It's NBC Cup 3.
Summer camp is a time for kids to make lifelong memories, right?
And that is exactly what New York's new country pride camp says that it does,
all while aiming to also be inclusive.
It's amazing.
The camp website describes it as a welcoming community of LGBTQ plus young people
and staff to create an experience where everyone is able to thrive.
NBC News correspondent Stephen Romo got a firsthand look.
at the camp, Stephen, did it make you want to be a kid again?
Yeah, wow. It brought back so many memories, guys. This camp's only in its third year right now,
but parents and organizers agree it's much needed, a place where these kids can not just be tolerated,
but celebrated. Unbelievable. Can you imagine if Glenn Beck held a Constitution camp?
Do you think NBC News would say the same thing that they're saying about this camp?
It's unbelievable. Your children, I was just talking to a congressman a couple of days ago and he said,
Glenn, I never really understood because my kids have been out of school for a while.
You cannot send your kids to school. There is no safe place in America to send your kids to a public school.
And he's right. You have to do it. You have to be involved.
There's a free book today from the Tuttle Twins.
This is the last day it's free.
It's called the Tuttle Twins and the 12 Rules boot camp.
You pay shipping.
That's it.
Your kids and your grandkids will begin absorbing the same values,
the same emphasis on personal responsibility that you've absorbed from listening
to Jordan Peterson's work over the last few years because this book is based on his rules.
Unfortunately, we live in a society now where victimhood is the rule of the day.
You must purge this from your grandkids and your kids and your kids and strengthen them with the truth.
Go to tutel twinsbeck.com.
Tuttle twinsbeck.com.
Get the book.
It's free.
You just pay for shipping.
Go there now.
Get the Tuttle Twins and the 12 rules boot camp while supplies last.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
I just got a note from our IT guy.
Glenn, you're currently set up with a Google workspace.
You are using 0.0 gigabytes of storage.
Are you still using this account?
No.
No.
No, I don't like putting my stuff up in Google.
Thank you.
I love that.
We have so many different formats that we're supposed to all be communicating and storing things on.
And like, I don't know how to use any of them.
So, like, the people are like, hey, I just slacked you a tweet and I friend stirred you.
I'm like, okay, great.
I'll make sure to look at that, you know, at some.
Sometime.
In the future.
Some place.
Never.
At that, at never o'clock, I will be checking that mess.
and make sure. Oh my gosh. I have there's so many things that are out and and some of them are great. Somebody showed me something just the other day with AI and they were like look at what this can do and I'm like, huh, never be able to learn how to use that. Yeah. As we discussed earlier this week, I'm in the in the in the in the throes of trying to recreate the village, the movie and just trying to suck myself out of this whatever this is as fast as possible. The
problem is I'm way too spoiled for it.
So like I don't want a farm either.
Like I don't, I definitely want DoorDash to continue to show up in this world.
And that's, I've not been able to.
I will tell you out here in the Mountain West, uh, I'm way away.
I'm, I'm 45 minutes to an hour away from the closest.
What most would say is a city.
It's not really.
It's just a bigger town.
Right.
Uh, and, uh, Uber Eats.
none of that stuff comes up here.
And it is shocking when you're like,
I didn't even think about dinner until just now.
What is there for dinner?
And you open the fridge and it's like nothing
because the grocery store is 40 minutes away.
And you're like, well, I don't really need to eat today.
It's just we are really, really, really used to a different kind of lifestyle,
especially the closer you live to the cities.
All right.
Thank you so much for listening.
We'll see you this afternoon on Blaze TV doing my Friday special,
and then we'll see you back here Monday morning.
Have a safe weekend.
God bless.
The Glenn Back Program.
