The Glenn Beck Program - Why John Brennan Is America’s Real-Life Batman Villain | 7/11/25

Episode Date: July 11, 2025

Since America's debt ceiling was raised on July 3, the national debt skyrocketed $410 billion in just the first two days, allegedly due to a "technical process." The Left freaked out at footage of an ...ICE raid that involved tear gas at a marijuana farm, which appeared to include child labor, leading to even more violence against ICE agents. California is set to ban ICE agents from wearing masks during operations. What reason could there be to ban masks other than to harass ICE agents? Glenn and Stu discuss the ways AI can be used and abused. Glenn's chief researcher and head writer, Jason Buttrill, joins to discuss a real-life Batman villain: former CIA Director John Brennan. Will Brennan be charged with perjury? Glenn and Stu discuss the liberal media's sudden concern over the Epstein files now that President Trump is in control. Is the new "Superman" movie a woke nightmare? Glenn and Stu go through some of the major stories they missed this week. Glenn speaks on the importance of not surrounding yourself with an ideological bubble. The guys discuss some of the Left's worst critiques regarding the tragic Texas flooding.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Starting point is 00:02:12 There's a ton going on. And I want to hear from you today, 8 at 877 B.E.C. It's Friday. Let me hear your thoughts on everything that is going on. Where are we? Also, I want to share something. from the Kobesi
Starting point is 00:02:25 letter this is about our our debt I think we should talk about this you see that
Starting point is 00:02:36 you see anything in the paper I just can't believe it's debt yeah it's kind of bad we're going to get into that also I don't
Starting point is 00:02:45 I'm not sure if anybody has noticed but there seems to be a problem with our spy agencies. We're going to get into that as well today. Stand by Oh, and ICE. First, let me tell you
Starting point is 00:03:01 a little bit about our sponsor. This half hour, our sponsor is the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. In Israel right now, there's still so many people feeling the effects of absolutely everything that has happened over the past couple of years. The war has left families, devastated, homes, destroyed,
Starting point is 00:03:18 fathers lost, children traumatized, and in many cases, the neediest, the elderly, the disabled, and the poor have been left to suffer in silence. This is where you and I can make a difference by supporting the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. They're on the ground every day in Israel, providing urgent relief to Jewish families in crisis.
Starting point is 00:03:36 They bring food and medicine to those who need it, and every dollar makes a huge difference. Now is the time to act. If you believe in standing with our friends in Israel, you believe that our biblical calling includes helping God's people in their darkest hour. now is the time to act. Stand with Israel's innocent and most vulnerable.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Rush your gift now 888488-488-I-F-C-J 888-488-48-I-F-C-J or go online to IFCJ. IFCJ.org or 8-8-488-I-F-C-J. Now, well, hello, Stu. How are you? Glenn, happy Friday. Oh, and happy one is. And a happy one is. Sure is. Yeah, it really, really is. Boy, there's so much to talk about with ICE and with Antifa and everything that is going on.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I think we are headed for an open war on our streets. I really do. The president has got to continue to do what he's doing. His popularity on what he's doing with ICE is through the roof. But we've got to investigate and start arresting Antifa members. We have to. Why are these people just left to just continue to do what they do all the time? Now, here's another thing, and I'm going to hit this once because it's a little, it's a little overwhelming, but I just think you should know it.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Since the debt ceiling was raised on July 3rd, July 3rd, the U.S. debt is up $410 billion just in the first two days. Let me say that again. We raise the debt ceiling and the U.S. debt goes up $410 billion, almost half a trillion dollars in two days. Now, this comes after the U.S. Treasury ended extraordinary measures raising the debt ceiling by $5 trillion. We are in the midst of the U.S. largest crisis, largest one ever. Now listen to this. After hitting the debt limit of $36.1 trillion in January 2025, Treasury began. extraordinary measures to conserve cash.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Last week, when Trump's big beautiful bill was signed into law, the debt ceiling from 36.1 to $41.1 trillion. And what happened in two days, up $410 billion raised due to a technical process. Now, Stu, I don't want to get all technical here, but I think that debt ceiling going up and then us spending an additional $410 billion. I think that technical process, and again, if I'm too wonky, maybe you can explain it, is out of control politicians that are just spending too much. Maybe that's just me.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Is that too technical? Is that too nerdy, wonky? Yeah, you're in, you're a nerd world right now without. I'm glad people that aren't going to understand it. Yeah, yeah. So they were just doing what you do when you don't have the money. They were just moving bills around and paying what they absolutely had to until the debt ceiling was raised. And then when they did, they were like, whew, because we were completely out of money.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Now we can print some more. So now we are free to borrow a record $41.1 trillion in debt. Now, here's the part that kind of opens your eyes. To put this into perspective at the start, part of 2020, the U.S. had $23.2 trillion in debt. In 2020, $23.2 trillion. Where are we now? Well, we just moved that debt ceiling up to $41 trillion because we're at $36.1 trillion. With the new limit, We will mark 17.9 trillion increase since 2020. That's a 77% increase in our debt.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Have you thought of it this way? At our current pace, we're going to reach the new debt ceiling much sooner than expected. The Treasury posted a $316 billion budget deficit in May. That's the third largest in record. For the first eight months of 2025, budget gap hit $1.37 trillion, the third largest in history. Over the last 12 months, the U.S. has borrowed $1.9 trillion, or $158 billion every month. That is half, this is half of the May levels, but let's take $158 billion to be conservative. U.S. current debt stands at 36.6.
Starting point is 00:08:44 We are $4.5 trillion below the limit now. At our current pace, it will take us 28 months to hit that limit. Jeez. In fact, the debt ceiling crisis, it looks like it's going to hit us now every two years. The debt ceiling is hit faster than it can be moved. from June 2023 and October 2021 were the last debt ceiling crisis. The U.S. budget deficit is averaged 9% of GDP over the last five years,
Starting point is 00:09:23 but over the last 12 months, the budget gap has hit 7% of GDP. That is higher than during 2001 or any of the 1980 recessions. We now spend $7.1 trillion, 24% of our, GDP. We have a spending problem. That's our problem. We are issuing so much debt now. Bond prices are falling and yields are rising. What does that mean? It means we're charging less and we're paying out more in interest. That's not going to help us. The U.S. spent a record of $1.2 trillion on interest expense alone. That's more than the total spending on defense, Medicaid, and the Veterans Program. At our current pace, we're set to see U.S. costs exceed $2 trillion
Starting point is 00:10:17 within a matter of years. Over the next 10 years, the U.S. projected is projected to pay $13.8 trillion just in interest. For interest alone, this is not tax payers. This is per person in the United States. For interest alone, we are now on the hook for 40,000, $5,000.5,000. $500 per person just for the interest. This is four times Social Security cash deficit in the next 10 years. Five times the cost of 403 U.S. weather and climate disasters since 1980. 403 weather and climate disasters. It's the cost of 403 of those.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Sorry. It's five times the cost. of those since 1980. I just want to just want to start there. Wake up to your situation. People are arguing about all of the wrong things right now and they are, we think we are skating,
Starting point is 00:11:41 and we think that this just can last forever. It's not going to last forever. And then you add things on top of this, like what is happening, with ice. I don't know if you saw the video of the protester, some protester that was firing some sort of a weapon at a federal agent during the ICE raid at a farm in California.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Let me play this cut two, please. This is a raid. Take a look at this video right here. It appears a protester fired some kind of gun at federal agents. This happened this afternoon. It was a really chaotic scene at the time. A lot of smoke was being launched at the protesters. And again, it appears a protester fired back with that weapon.
Starting point is 00:12:29 It looks like he fired at least a couple of times. We have not heard about any agents being hurt. So we are entering a very violent, very, very violent time. First of all, let me talk about this particular raid. This was at a legal pot farm. Okay. I think we could probably, in the past, just done an hour on that. Oh, it's a legal pot farm.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Okay. But forget about that. That's not a problem, apparently, anymore. It's being tended, this legal pot farm is being tended by illegals that are coming across the bar. Well, we don't want to hurt our farming community. I don't think of our farming community as pot farms, but maybe that's just me. Again, why get way down in those details? Glenn, this is just maybe an existential question here, but is it a legal pot farm if the workers are illegal?
Starting point is 00:13:32 Stu, again, that would be our two of any past show that we have ever done together. All right. All right. So they go in and they're trying to bust the illegals. All right. What happens? Well, there starts to be protests. These protesters come. They start firing at ice.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Ice has to put tear gas down. And now the illegals are running to save themselves. But who's running amongst this crowd? Apparently a bunch of children. Now, I suppose those legal pot farms are providing a good education for those kids, you know, probably has a pot farm daycare center for those kids so they can be out of the fields and, of course, not working with their parents because that would be underage labor. You wouldn't want that to happen in America.
Starting point is 00:14:30 You know, all of these people that have these bleeding hearts that say, oh, this is just so wrong, you don't, you don't even, you're not even thinking anymore. You're not even thinking. You just see a video where you have kids. running with their parents, children, running from the fields of this pot farm. What were they doing there? Certainly that was an underage labor, was that? Because you'd be against that.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Wouldn't you? Or are you? Or are you only against that if it's white children? I'm not sure. I'm confused. So you have the underage children and these bleeding hearts who are saying, we've got to let these people go. We've got to let them just do what they're.
Starting point is 00:15:14 do. Really? You mean work in the shadows? You mean engage in possible child labor? Okay, possibly making what, a dollar an hour? Yeah, that's that, no, no, no, that's really, really, really good. Then let's just let these protesters, and they're not protesters. They are terrorists now. We just let these terrorists get away with just firing guns at our, at our ice agents. Things are changing. in America. Let's just look at the violence just in the last couple of weeks. You have the July 4th ICE ambush, which is what? Ice 25 miles outside of the city of Dallas. They have a detention center. A coordinated, well-planned attack. Guys covered in black, you know, in military gear. They come and they start shooting fireworks at the detention center. Then a few of them break. off and they start spray painting the cars, which brings unarmed ice agents out of the building
Starting point is 00:16:21 to try to stop them from defacing the cars. They're unarmed. Well, this group has snipers in the woods, hiding in the woods. As soon as those unarmed agents come out, they start shooting them, shot one of them in the neck. Thank God he's still alive. What do you call that? What do you call that? Revolutionary War? Terrorism? It's certainly not a peaceful protest. Neither was it yesterday. And meanwhile, we have congressmen who are actually trying to pass a bill in Congress right now,
Starting point is 00:16:59 saying that the ICE members can't wear masks. Well, you know what? When your bad guys stop wearing masks, when your people who are on the college campuses stop wearing masks, maybe we can live in. a community and live in a society where our police officers don't have to wear masks. Don't give me this that's Gestapo stuff. By the way
Starting point is 00:17:22 the Gestapo never wore masks. They didn't care. This is the kind of stuff you see in third world countries. Oh, you mean like the riots on the streets? Yeah, it is stuff you see in third world countries. And you're dragging us into
Starting point is 00:17:38 a third world country. And you know what? It's just, it's it's time. It's just time to say enough is enough. And I'm not saying take extraordinary measures. I'm saying, can our U.S. government, our FBI, our Department of Justice, stop acting like every bond villain I've ever seen? And here's what I mean by that. It's like you take these guys off the street and then you strap them to a table and you say,
Starting point is 00:18:17 Unzi laser is cut your head in half. No, it's not going to. We all know it's not going to. Can we stop acting like bond villains? Can we actually take care of the problem? Actually arrest these people, try them, and put them in jail. We need to start setting a few examples. Otherwise, this is going to continue to spiral out of control.
Starting point is 00:18:44 More in just a second. First, let me tell you about our sponsor. Our sponsor is Rough Greens. Oh, boy. Let me guess. Your dog used to eat like a rabid wolf. I know. And then just stop one day.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Kind of lost interest. You've tried every brand. You've tried every dog food you get your hands on dry, wet, raw, homemade. Nothing worked. Now you're about two wasted cans away from cooking steak and letting the dog eat off your plate because the dog's got to eat. Turns out the problem might not be the food itself, but what it is missing. dog food as its process today loses a ton of its nutritional value.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, all of it gone. Rough Greens fixes that. It's a nutritional topper that you sprinkle on whatever food your dog already eats or doesn't eat. And suddenly that dog food isn't just food anymore. It's a complete meal. And they love it. It's full of everything your dog needs to get back to that energy, shinier coat, happier belly. And yeah, picky eaters start chowding down again.
Starting point is 00:19:44 I've seen it with my own dog, Uno. upgrade your dog's food with rough greens. Call them at 214 Rough Dog. 214 Rough Dog or go to Roughgreens.com. Use the discount code Beck. That's RUFFFF Greens.com. Discount code Beck. Call 214 Rough Dog.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Rough Greens, a healthy change for a changing dog. 10 seconds, station ID. You know, Glenn, you're mentioning the Melt Act, which is this bill in New York City that is going to ban masks on ice agents. For college students on college campuses, I'm sure. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:29 I mean, first of all, the risk of COVID-19. I'm very concerned about that. Oh, very. These poor ice agents are, I mean, if you can't wear a mask outdoors, you're almost certain to die of COVID. I mean, we know that from the science. You know, that's a whole other story. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:45 But what could possibly be the reason to keep masks off of ice agents other than to target them and their families personally. What could, I mean, can you come up with any coherent reason why you would need to do that? The only reason is they want when these pictures are taken and we see these poor children running out of the marijuana fields, when we see that, you can identify them individually and then go harass them at their homes, harass their families, destroy their lives. That's it. It's the only possible reason.
Starting point is 00:21:24 There's no other coherent reason why you would care. Well, yeah, but they'll spin it the other way. Those are the bad guys. Those are the bad guys. Those are the fascist pigs that have to die and pay for it. That is what they are admitting. And that's a crucial thing. This is law enforcement we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:21:41 These are people who are, you know, risking their lives on a day-to-day basis to enforce the law. You might not like the law. There's a lot of laws I don't like, frankly. But that doesn't mean you take that out on law enforcement. They are doing this. And they, you know, these are the people who are praising individuals that go execute CEOs of health care companies, right? It's the same people. Let me tell you, here's what's coming.
Starting point is 00:22:05 Mark my words. Here's what's coming. Elon Musk has the satellite capability. Elon Musk has the electricity generation. He has the server farms. He has Optimus and he has GROC 4. When our cities are in absolute turmoil, Elon Musk is going to step forward and see. say, let me give you these robots. They're more intelligent. They can figure out everything that
Starting point is 00:22:29 is going on. They can record everything. They see everything. Let me just give them to your city to help out because you don't have police officers that will do the work anymore. That's how you get Robocop. This is Glenn Beck. And it's coming to a country near you. Lear Capital, every time you see the turbulence in the world, the war is the political chaos, the bank failures, is the interest rate madness. People start buying gold. When I told you just a few minutes ago about our debt, if that wasn't something, if something inside of you said, uh-oh, the dollar's not going to last, something's wrong. You got to tie these things together. There is, we're bankrupt. We're going bankrupt. And, you know, and, you know, how does that happen over a very long period of time? And
Starting point is 00:23:16 then all of a sudden overnight, nothing but gold has held its value through recessions, regime changes, market crashes, and much worse than that. Gold has withstood the test of time. It is what the world has returned to every time since biblical days. Gold has gone up 40% in the last year. 40%. Central banks are buying record amounts of it. Demand is sky high. If you have a retirement count of 401k or IRA, you can convert part of it into physical gold with Lear Capital. They make it simple. Just go to Lear Capital.
Starting point is 00:23:52 them right now. Their number is 800-957 gold. 8-9-57 gold. Call them now. Mercury1.org is the place to go to help with the floods in Texas and New Mexico. Mercury1.org. Welcome to the program. We're glad you're here. Oh, where should we start? Where should we start? By the way, I was watching a video from Microsoft. And you know how I told you yesterday, they're going to be making new compounds, you know. Grock 4 is going to be able to make new compounds, make new chemicals, you know, things that we never even thought of, new alloys. Well, apparently, I missed this.
Starting point is 00:24:56 A friend of mine sent me this video and said, hey, Glenn, it's already happening at Microsoft. Microsoft at one of their big, you know, unveiling parties, they showed a new tool that they're using to come up with new compounds and new alloys and everything else. and they showed the process and you just type it in, blah, blah, blah. And they were looking for a new coolant to be able to spend high-speed computers in because, you know, it's just too hot, it takes too much energy to keep them cool, blah, blah, blah. But the problem is the coolant is so bad for the environment. And so they went in and they used their new quantum computer and they typed in and said,
Starting point is 00:25:39 hey, you know, can we, can you come up with something and they explained exactly what they were looking for? And it came up with a new coolant and said, combine these things together and it will not be bad for the environment and it'll keep everything cool. So what they did is they just did that. They didn't argue with it or anything. They just did what the computer said and then poured it into what looks like a giant fish tank and then dropped a computer into it with no fans, nothing. and it stayed perfectly cool without any fans or anything trying to keep it cool. Just a new chemical compound that they threw together through quantum computing, a problem they couldn't solve before.
Starting point is 00:26:25 How do we keep it cool? Now they found it. I mean, it's already there. I mean, I think we are in for, you know, I don't know if I told you this yesterday, Stu, as I was doing some more research. No, because you left yesterday up here. We didn't have a chance to talk. But I was doing more research on, you know, AI.
Starting point is 00:26:45 And it is going so far ahead, so fast that just two days ago, I thought we were going to be really far ahead of the game on things. And we still are going to be way ahead of the game. However, it's happening at such a rapid speed that I'm not. sure if when we launch, it's going to be the latest, greatest. You know what I mean? It's moving so rapidly now. And the idea that I have for this project that I'm working on that will be, I'll tell you about it here in a couple of months, but it is, the idea is to get you ready for a time when nothing makes sense. And this is just, this is just,
Starting point is 00:27:37 just to educate you, yourself, your family on principles and civic duties and the Constitution. So you can be strong in the core. We were working on it last night on finding ways to be able to figure out, is that a deep fake or is this real? We want to provide you with the tools to be able to know the truth and then know them and learn them inside of yourself. and I'm looking at what is on the horizon, and I'm thinking, we being ahead, we may be behind by January. And anybody who's not working on anything with AI, and I mean not seriously working on anything with AI,
Starting point is 00:28:25 your company, you are going to find yourself out of business soon. It is just, it's going to happen. It's going to happen. You have to pay attention to what is going on with AI and follow it and use it wisely. Use it with wisdom. Don't just go for the answer, the quick answer. Go to have it teach you so you can then have wisdom because it's not really going to have wisdom. At least you don't know who's programming the wisdom behind it.
Starting point is 00:29:01 And that is the real, that's the real problem. Yeah. But anyway, isn't it true, Glenn, that like, I'm sure you've, in all of your reading and studying on this, you've thought about this quite a bit. But it's like, isn't there, isn't there like a weird thing with like an end date of human knowledge in a way where like if you have people who forever grow up, learn things, understand them, progress. they're building the infrastructure of thought, right? Like you're advancing thought, you're creating things, you're understanding things, you're going forward. And then at some point,
Starting point is 00:29:41 if there's not human beings doing that because they're going to AI for everything, that process doesn't occur, and that's the process that trained AI. So does it? It's the end of the expert class. Why go to school? Now, there's lots of reasons to go to school that go beyond just being the smartest person on the planet.
Starting point is 00:30:11 But why go to school to learn any particular skill? Why go to be an expert? Why go and be the expert on history? What? So you can write books that nobody's going to read? Why be the expert that everybody looks to when you have just a fraction of the knowledge that Grok will have? I know I'm going to get a better answer from Grock than from you. So it is the end of the expert class, which is, in some ways, makes me very happy.
Starting point is 00:30:42 However, be careful because these AI systems will give you one answer. Like Google right now gives you page after page after page of answers. And everybody just goes to the top. But at least the other answers are there. This will give you one answer. And people will just take that as the gospel. And, you know, the idea is this should free you up to do a bunch of other things. And I know in my case, and, you know, you and I've been working on it this week, in our case,
Starting point is 00:31:14 it is going to free us up to do so much more. And it will speed up the process of education and everything else. And it will be really, really good for a while. And then I think, you know, there's going to be the vast majority that are just going to be lazy on it. And it's going to watch you as much as you're watching it. And then what happens? Then what are you worth?
Starting point is 00:31:45 What is, why did you go to school? You think people are upset that they can't get jobs now? Give it two years. When you can't, when you go to school and you pay all this money, I'm telling you, college is damn near a total waste of money. especially the kind of education that you're getting because you're not taught critical thinking. The only thing that should be taught now is how to think, how to think. But what they're doing is they're telling you what to think.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Well, I can get that from GROC eventually. I'll get that from chat GPT eventually. You know, you have to be taught how to think because we're churning out these. I mean, most of our problems are caused because nobody knows how to think. nobody's using critical thinking nobody's asking critical questions you're not being you're not being taught that are you
Starting point is 00:32:36 yeah because that's the problem this is one of the issues I've noticed with AI and the way the average person uses it it's not even that you ask it a question and gives you one answer right because as you point out that's an obvious problem
Starting point is 00:32:51 because whoever's putting in whoever's programming this whoever's you know garbage in garbage out if the if that one answer is bad then everyone's just getting this one bad answer. But what I've noticed about people that in like in my life and, you know, friends and family who use this is they ask the questions in like a leading way.
Starting point is 00:33:12 And what AI is really, really good at is coming up with some answer that will support the thing you're asking it. Like if I say like, you know, give me a good case as to why Glenn Beck is the next fascist dictator of the United States. There's not a good case to that. There's no argument. May I say, may I tell you how it would answer you?
Starting point is 00:33:33 Because this will make your point because I've seen it over and over and over again. Wow. Now that's getting to the heart of the question. Right. Yeah, it gives you, it complements you. It glazes you before it gives you an answer that makes no sense. Yes. But it's smart enough to come up with an argument to support the thing that you want.
Starting point is 00:33:51 So like, you know, like if you go on there and like, let's say you're some, you're a believer in some supplement, right? that it has a questionable health benefit, right? If you go on there and you say, hey, my friend says, you know, I don't know, tree bark won't make you cure cancer. Give me an argument, you know, what's the best argument that it can? And it will give you the best argument that it can cure cancer, whatever that is. It'll come up with some justification. And like the way I use it, and I think the way you use it, Glenn, is the complete opposite of that. give me the best argument against this thing that I want to believe.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Right? Like a lot of times I use it as like a devil's advocate. Well, am I not thinking this through fully? And that it's really beneficial because it'll bring up facts that you might not know or some angle you haven't thought of that will help strengthen your argument or maybe change it. But like that's not how I think the average person uses it. Let me show you this. This is what we're churning out.
Starting point is 00:34:53 And here's what happens when you don't know how to think anymore. and you haven't questioned, you know, really, you know, if you're a lawyer, and you haven't questioned enough to really absolutely understand what the law even means. I'm going to play something. This is from 2016. It is in the U.S. Court of Appeals, the Ninth Circuit, and they're questioning a child protective services lawyer about how her client, the social worker,
Starting point is 00:35:24 could possibly think that perjury is acceptable. Now listen to this. Cut 35, please. It looks like we're having a technical issue with cut 35, Glenn. Yeah. Of all the cuts. You've just picked up to the cuts. We're not trying the case.
Starting point is 00:35:41 But how can a person in the shoes of your clients possibly believe that it was appropriate to use perjury and false evidence in order to impair somebody's liberty interest in the continued care of custody and, control of that person's children. How could they possibly not be on notice that you can't do that? I understand the... How could that possibly be? I understand the argument that it seems to be common sense and are ethical... It's more than common sense. It's statutes that prohibit perjury and submission of false evidence in court cases. State statutes. Are you telling me that a person
Starting point is 00:36:18 in your client's shoes couldn't understand you can't commit perjury in a court proceeding in order to take somebody's children away? Of course not, Your Honor. Of course not. Isn't the case over then? And the case is over. Because, well... Costanich is distinguishable, in my view. How in the work, Kastanich deals with a secondary care, you know, foster care. That's a whole strange thing. It's not a person's real child. Even if Kostanich is... And guardians the same thing. Even if Kastanich is distinguishable, there is... Thus far, we have not been present. with any clearly established right that tells us that what our clients did, which is remove
Starting point is 00:37:00 the children pursuant to a court order. No, but what they're accused of doing and what the issue is here is committing perjury in a court to take away someone's children. And you just said that's obviously not okay to do. According to our moral compass and our ethical guidelines, but what we're here to decide is the constitutionality of it and we look to the courts. You mean due process is somehow consistent with a government? an official introducing perjured testimony and false?
Starting point is 00:37:27 How is that consistent? I mean, I hate to get pumped up about this, but I'm just staggered by the claim that people in the shoes of your clients wouldn't be on notice that you can't use perjury and false evidence to take away somebody's children. That, to me, is mind-boggling. In criminal proceedings, we know this to be true
Starting point is 00:37:47 because that... No, no, criminal proceedings, this is a court, it's a court proceeding with a liberty entry. a fundamental liberty interest at stake. And on the reverse side, the state also... And you're telling us that these officials who do this all the time couldn't be on notice that you can't commit perjury and put in false evidence. All this and more on the next episode of America's worst lawyers.
Starting point is 00:38:13 But that is the thinking now. That is what our schools are churning out. Well, that is the construct. We're here to decide if that construct even really exist other than... paper. And look at how many times have we seen people commit perjury in front
Starting point is 00:38:31 of Congress and it doesn't matter anymore. This is what our education system is pumping out right now and it's only going to get worse unless you prepare right now and you start
Starting point is 00:38:48 preparing your kids and educating them on actual truth. There is universal eternal truths. Lying is against all eternal truths. Lying to take away someone's children? If that attorney knew that that was happening, that attorney should be in jail.

Navigating Medicare is like trying to assemble IKEA furniture with absolutely no instructions and half the pieces are in, you know, in Latin.

Let's bring in Jason Buttrill, who is our chief researcher on the program.
Starting point is 00:47:15 You know, I'm reading a lot about John Brennan. And, you know, I think everybody knows he's a bad guy. Well, everybody but MSNBC and CNN. They know he's a bad guy. But, you know, Jason, as I was starting to really refresh my memory and look into Brennan as where it looks like maybe the Department of Justice is going to take him on and maybe prosecute him for some pretty bad perjury. I started looking into him and I didn't realize, I had completely forgotten.
Starting point is 00:47:50 He was the guy who was the main guy that was pushing for torture during the war. I mean, he couldn't torture enough people. And then he actually had a little group that would meet with the president and they would develop the kill list. Do you remember Stu? about the kill list that Obama was doing, you know, every week. They develop a kill list. And everybody was like, what do you mean a kill list? Who's on the kill list?
Starting point is 00:48:18 It was John Brennan that was doing all of that stuff. He's a really, really dark dude. And, you know, hopefully we'll actually send him to jail for the things that he allegedly has done besides, you know, developed the kill list. Jason, welcome to the program. Hey, thanks, Glenn. I don't, you know, it depends on, I don't know. John Brennan has been one of the most slippery.
Starting point is 00:48:44 I don't know how to describe them, whether it's like bond villains or actually, maybe it's more accurate to call them like a Batman villain. Because like you remember like in Batman, you know if like the Joker is like connected to the main and that comic or cartoon or if it's the penguin. You know that at the end of the comic, they're going to get away. You're just going to see them in a slide, you know, all of a sudden. on a page where they just slip away because they get caught. They have to live again, you know, to be the villain in another comic book.
Starting point is 00:49:12 That's kind of John, right? And I know. And we are playing the role of a bond villain as well when it comes to justice. Our DOJ is like, oh, and we have sharks that are going to eat you. We've strapped you to this table, but they are going to start with your shoestring. And then we will leave. but before you know it, you'll be dead in the belly of a shark. And you're like, they're not going to eat the shark.
Starting point is 00:49:40 It's not going to kill him. Just shoot them in the head. What are you doing? Stop with a shark thing. That's what our DOJ is like. They just, these guys just get away with murder. Yeah, as you point out, with Brennan, it goes way, way back. Even before he was confirmed as CIA director, you know, he was one of that, as you outlined,
Starting point is 00:50:00 he was one of the ones that were like right at the center of the enhanced interrogation or torture uh... uh... technique controversy he uh... he always uh... you know said oh yeah i i was not in the enhanced interrogation techniques air quoted um... program
Starting point is 00:50:16 but he was one of the guys that was you know defending transferring some of the suspects to countries where you know the the rules are a lot less you know strict than they are here in the united states who you can employ so he's um yeah but i mean it goes beyond that he he actually you know he withdrew his name you know, from being in contention to BCIA director because of this. But like any Batman villain or Bond villain, decides to run again later in 2013,
Starting point is 00:50:45 and he's confirmed by a massive amount. He just keeps on slipping through. Well, how does he get, let me ask you, how did you think he gets this power? Because he just, he does keep slipping through. And, you know, if I remember right, it was Diane Feinstein that actually came at him and said, you and the CIA
Starting point is 00:51:08 are spying on the committee in the Senate. And they were investigating the torture or enhanced interrogation. And he was knee deep, maybe neck deep in that. And
Starting point is 00:51:24 he said, we're not spying. The CIA would never do that. It's just unthinkable. Well, it turns out, yes, they were spying. And then he never they never pushed for any kind of penalty on him. He said, well, I'm going to find out who did this and then they're going to pay. Nobody paid.
Starting point is 00:51:42 Nobody, nothing. Does he have stuff on members of the Senate and the House? Is that what's happening here? How does he keep getting away with this? Understanding John Brennan, in my opinion, is understanding how the deep state operates. That example that you just put out there with the Senate, you know, spying on the Senate Intelligence Committee, Deny, deny, deny. Later, it comes out that, Glenn, five CIA employees, five, improperly access Senate computers, five. And then finally, after a while, like months later, he's apologizing to the Senate
Starting point is 00:52:20 Intelligence Committee, you know, all but admitting this happened, but no resignations, no prosecutions. This goes on and on and on. Hang on. And then, and then on that same case, years later, he writes his, you know, his biography, and he talks about how none of that happened. So he admits it. First, he denies it. Incredible. Then he's caught. Then he admits it. He says, I'm going to take care of it.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Nothing happens. Time goes by. And then he writes a book and he's like, all of that, none of that happened. That was all wrong. This guy is just a bond villain. Yeah. It really is. And it's the same with the steel dossier, you know, denying it in front of Congress.
Starting point is 00:53:08 And then, you know, later now that we're coming out saying, oh, well, you know, now we can see that he totally was just, it appears like he was just completely lying. Now we're trying to figure out what he told John Durham because maybe we, they can get him for, you know, saying the same statements to John Durham. If they can, then maybe we can go after him. But I really don't know. I don't know if the audience really wants to hear this right now. But I don't know if it'll make a difference. This is how the deep state operates. And to understand it and to understand John Brennan, you understand that, you know,
Starting point is 00:53:39 the executive does not really control deep state apparatuses. That's not how it works. You have multiple people and people that were under John Brennan and the CIA are still there. They're still there. The deep state controls the deep state apparatus, not the executive, not Congress, none of them. It is these shady individuals that continue to get away with things. We catch them in lies. It never really matters.
Starting point is 00:54:03 I think that if we could actually get some justice on this, that John Brennan can actually, you know, get, you know, outed publicly like he has in the past. But this time something actually happened, then I think that would be a huge step forward and getting rid of some of these people that just linger and secretly pull strings while we're demanding justice. So tell me what happened with the ICA,
Starting point is 00:54:30 the new report out about the intelligence community assessment. What is this story all about? Yeah, it's a trade craft. It's a CIA trade craft review. What does that mean a trade craft review? It's kind of a sexy way of just saying, how did we operate from this time to this time period? And it points out how things like the state,
Starting point is 00:54:58 It pointed out in part of it how things like the steel dossier ended up getting included into, you know, the whole Russiagate scandal. And it's, it looks very, very clear that, you know, that should not have unverified intelligence should not have gotten as far as the president's desk. It should not have done it. And even if it had, then it should have been, you know, heavily caveated showing that this is just opposition research bull crap. Well, it didn't. And if you look at it very, very specifically, it shows that, you know, if you are, let's say, a Bond villain or a Batman villain, and you really, really want this damaging information that's just opposition research to somehow make it into the halls of the White House. And then knowing that that's going to get leaked down to the media, they perfected, you know, the guys perfected this kind of operation. They know exactly what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Who would be responsible for doing it? why would they be doing it and it would be for election interference and then that's allegedly what john brennon was actually doing that's what it looks like he was doing so now we've even got you know the the intelligence community assessment showing that this is probably what happened with that information and with now being able to go back to people like john durham are looking exactly what statements were made to him so that we can fit them into the statute of limitations or before it runs out that's which is in the middle of August, which really pisses me off. It's another thing like the, you know, the debt ceiling.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Oh, we, you know, we've had all these years to fix it, but now we've got to fix it tonight. And then it's never fixed. I mean, I'm telling you, this is not going to be good. You know, this Epstein thing is not going to go away. It's just not going to go away. And I'm sorry, but I think the president is on the wrong. side on this. And I'm not assigning any kind of reason for it, but he wants it just to go away. And I have my belief, I expressed them yesterday. It's about Intel again. But you can't keep stacking
Starting point is 00:57:07 these things up. You just can't. John Brennan is a known bad guy, Russiagate. You would think that Donald Trump would be all over this because it affected his life so much. This guy is a very, very, very bad guy and both sides of the aisle know it. And for some reason, nobody can ever do anything about John Brennan. He's got to be investigated and prosecuted if that's where the evidence leads. But you can't just walk away. If the statute of limitations runs out on this guy, I think you got another chink in the armor.
Starting point is 00:57:45 A big one. Yeah. Yeah. And not just him. I mean, I would go a lot further. say, who were the people that were directly underneath them? Who were his subordinates? Who were their subordinates?
Starting point is 00:57:57 How many of them had knowledge of this? Because what we're really talking about is, you know, this is how the deep state operates. This is how things happen, you know, outside, you know, the wishes of the president, you know, the executive or even Congress. This is how, you know, this is how outside, this is how justice and how operations work, you know, from people that are not elected, people that we did not give a mandate to. This is how this operates. You have to root out every single one of them, identify them, have them stand in front of justice, and see if we can just finally start to whittle this thing away.
Starting point is 00:58:31 If we do not, then the future does not look great for what we want for this country. Oh, and it's everywhere. You know, Kevin O'Connor, he's the White House physician for Biden, the testimony that he gave. Well, fine, you know, give him immunity. Give him immunity. I don't want to know about, you know, the private conversations, you know, about his health, although I think that is really important. We're talking about the president of the United States. He's not just a private citizen. He's property. You know, the president can't say if the Secret Service says, sir, you're not going in that room. The president no longer has the right to say, I'm going in that room. Sorry, while you're president, it's almost as if your property of the United States of America. and you don't have control over your own person in many ways. I'm sorry, but, you know, the physician client or physician patient confidentiality, I'm not sure that exists when you're president of the United States.
Starting point is 00:59:39 But there's no reason why you shouldn't give this guy immunity and then say, okay, who said what? Were you ever told to lie? I'm not sure you're going to get the truth out of this guy because he is a, he's a Biden guy through and through. But people should start going to jail on that. I'm so sick and tired of these investigations that start to show promise and then nothing happens.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Nothing. It's been 20 years of investigations and no one goes to jail. It's been 20 years of riots on the streets, you know, people burning. cities down, people, you know, looting stores, destroying our economy, destroying the safety in our city, and no one goes to jail. President Trump has got to start sending some big, big messages, and he is on so many fronts, but this one cannot escape his view. He's got to be on this one. All right, Jason,

No, no, no, sorry. Cut 29. So this is the woman that was on this, you know, viral TikTok video talking about how, you know, Camp Mystic, which the president is visiting today, how Camp Mystic is, you know, a whites only summer camp for Christian conservatives. Listen to this. Listen to this clip. I know I'm probably going to get canceled for this, but Camp Mystic is a white. only girls Christian camp. They don't even have a token Asian. They don't have a token
Starting point is 01:03:09 black person. It is a all white, white only conservative Christian camp. If you ain't white, you ain't right, you ain't getting in, you ain't going, period. And I think that context needs to be said in this matter. It's not to say that we don't want the girls to be found whatever girls that are missing or whatever right now. But you best believe, especially in today's political climate, if this were a group of Hispanic girls, especially with them being in East Texas, it should be most likely Hispanic.
Starting point is 01:03:46 If this were a group of Hispanic girls out there, this would not be getting this type of coverage that they're getting. No one would give a fuck. And all these white people, the parents of these little girls, would be saying things like they need to be deported. They shouldn't have been here in the first place and yada, yada. I said before y'all come at me stop before well people did come at her uh unfortunately for her she was she she was canceled um and there's a lot of sympathy on her side she started a uh a go fund me
Starting point is 01:04:15 project where she said i just need to you know i've lost my job and i don't think he's going to hire me for a while so uh you know i need i need your help i'm trying to raise uh 20 000 and it started a couple of nights ago last time i checked it was at a hundred and forty Now remember, the kid that killed the other kid in Texas in the stands, in the grandstand seats, what, six months ago, eight months ago, he raised millions of dollars, okay, for his defense. This is 145. I think it's up to a thousand now. So congratulations on that. To me, that's a good sign.
Starting point is 01:04:53 To me, that's saying, ah, maybe people are starting to wake up, you know, just a little bit. Maybe people have had enough of some of this stuff. By the way, the floods in New Mexico, the floods in Texas, they have taken quite a toll. And I have to tell you, I can't thank you enough for just rushing to the aid of these people through Mercury 1. It has been remarkable. I talked to some of the guys that are at Mercury 1 this week, and they're just, they're amazed by you and what you have provided. and what you have done. The aid in New Mexico is really, really, really desperately needed.
Starting point is 01:05:37 I think we're on the ground there. We were on the ground in Texas right away, but they can use your help. Please go to mercury1.org. Mercury1.org and be a part of the solution. This is Glenn Beck. All right. Let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Starting point is 01:06:03 every generation of Christian believers has been called to stand with Israel at some point in another over the past 2,000 years. I guess it's just part of the job description, you know, and we fail over and over and over again. We have failed. And so many people are already starting to fail that test
Starting point is 01:06:21 as we're being called to stand by God's children again. So many people are starting to say, well, it's just we wouldn't have a problem with them Jews if it wasn't for all them Jews. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Listen to yourself. since the attacks of October 7th and in the moments after thousands of innocent families have been forced from their homes, entire communities have been shaken, the world's eyes may have moved on, but the pain hasn't, and we must not move on. You know, I'd like to say this about the Palestinian people as well, but every time you try to send aid to the Palestinian people, they end up shooting the aid workers. So, you know, I guess all ideologies and all religions are not equal, but maybe the people.

YouTube at you're sorry YouTube.com at Glenn Beck and also it'll be up
Starting point is 01:07:57 wherever you get your audio podcast but I'm re-releasing that tomorrow she's one of the foremost experts and researchers on Jeffrey Epstein she has a two-volume bookout that is absolutely incredible one nation under blackmail the sordid union between
Starting point is 01:08:13 intelligence and crime that gave rise to Jeffrey Epstein. I want to play just a little bit of this here this is Whitney Webb you'll hear it in its entirety tomorrow on my YouTube channel, YouTube.com slash Glenn Beck. Okay, listen. I think he definitely had intelligence connections,
Starting point is 01:08:33 and there's a lot to suggest that was the case. I think one of the earliest hints we heard of that was having a secretary of labor, Alex Acosta, under Trump, say that one of the reasons he was pressured into giving Epstein a sweetheart deal during his first arrest in Florida was because he had been told by unspecified actors that Epstein belonged to intelligence. But that's kind of, you know, what exactly does that mean? Was he an asset?
Starting point is 01:08:59 Was he on the payroll? Which intelligence agency? Multiple intelligence agencies? When you have his close association with someone like Galane Maxwell in the mix and her father had affiliations with numerous intelligence agencies, you know, it really is an open question. You don't want to miss this tomorrow. Also, Alan Dershowitz.
Starting point is 01:09:18 I want you to hear what Alan Dershowitz said about, Epstein and the files. Listen to this. This is not an opinion. This is a fact. I have seen. Remember, I was accused falsely and the abstin. And ultimately, I was completely cleared. The woman admitted that she may have mistook me for somebody else who withdrew all of her lawsuits. And so from day one, from the day I was accused, I said, I want every document out because I knew every document would prove I was innocent. So let me tell you, I know for a fact documents are being suppressed. And they're being suppressed to protect individuals. I know the names of the
Starting point is 01:09:52 the individuals. I know why they're being suppressed. I know who's suppressing them. But I'm bound by confidentiality from a judge and cases, and I can't disclose what I know. But I pan to God. I know. I know the names of people whose files are being suppressed in order to protect them. This is not going to go away, Stu. I mean, I just, I look at, I look at, you know, you may not like Dershowitz. I happen to like him. And I think he was proven to be correct on this.
Starting point is 01:10:34 But, you know, he did have, I mean, he was the lawyer and he also had information on the list because he could get it with his court case. And for him to say, when he says hand to God, I believe him.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Because he is, I mean, he's a very devout religious man, hand to God. I've seen them. I know they're being suppressed. He's not talking about the people that were
Starting point is 01:11:07 like him, maybe on a list, but innocent, is he? Because that's the one thing you could say. Maybe he was just saying there there is a list. No, because he was saying it's being suppressed because they're being protected. Yeah, I mean, I get, I mean, you can stretch it into something, I guess. You can maybe say
Starting point is 01:11:25 that, you know, people that are on the list that are innocent and they're protecting them. Like, I guess you could maybe make that argument. But it's pretty significant. In fact, you know, it's particularly interesting with Dershowitz and that, as he pointed out, he was falsely accused. And, you know, I mean, again, she came out. She dropped the lawsuits. She came out and said, yeah, it might not have been him.
Starting point is 01:11:47 I mean, like, you know, legitimate reason to believe he had absolutely, I mean, I believe him that he did not do this. I do too. So, I don't know. I think I might expect someone in that situation to be giving the opposite argument, right? That, you know, there's a lot of people who got wrapped up in this falsely. And they shouldn't release this because, you know, I mean, like, look at me. I got wrapped up in this.
Starting point is 01:12:16 I had nothing to do with it. And you're going to throw all these names out there. Everyone's going to start accusing these people of having sex with children. And it's like, that's totally unfair. and they should not let any of this stuff out. Like I would almost expect that to be his argument. And instead his argument is actually, I've seen it, it seems like there's a lot there,
Starting point is 01:12:32 but I can't talk about it. That's fascinating to me. It's, there's so many different things, like I feel like there's a bunch of unexpected things going on right now. You know, we've mentioned this, this is off the year. We were talking at the ranch the other day,
Starting point is 01:12:48 but Jake Tapper had a segment that was on CNN. And like, I think I just a second. I have the audio of that. Let's play that audio. Okay. Yeah, Jake Tapper earlier this week. While there might not be a list, there are certainly files that can be released. There's a trove of information that the Trump administration is right now refusing to share information that could well point to the powerful folks who availed themselves of the sex trafficking victims of Jeffrey Epstein.
Starting point is 01:13:20 If you go, for example, to the FBI vault online, you can see that there are 22 files containing thousands of pages. Most of them are heavily redacted. Now, sure, of course. Redact the names and identifying characteristics of the victims. But why not make the victim and witness testimonies public? As Julie Brown points out, there's still so much we don't know from the investigations by U.S. attorneys in Miami and in New York. Witness interviews in the U.S. Virgin Islands and New Mexico. Brown writes that there's still more evidence.
Starting point is 01:13:50 It hasn't been published, including, quote, Epstein kept video cameras in most of his residences. And Epstein's autopsy, nor the report of the investigation into his death, has ever been made public. So while there may not be an official client list to be released, as the administration is now saying, there's a lot of extra information that is not being made public. The public. You, you're being played for fools here.
Starting point is 01:14:14 Wait, I heard, because I kept seeing the clip, the clip of Tapper saying, you're being, played for fools here, the public, and assumed what he was saying was Donald Trump ran on releasing these files. He got everybody excited and then there was nothing there. And you were played by fools. He was trying to get you that if you cared about this to vote for him and it was hype. That's not what he's saying. He's saying actually there's more there and we need to look into it. Now, take aside for a second. The utter hypocrisy. because I don't remember any segments complaining about Joe Biden not releasing these files. I don't remember ever seeing that.
Starting point is 01:14:58 These were all in the possession of the Biden administration. This is not new stuff that Trump just got. It's just completely crazy to make this a Trump issue. But take it out of that for a second. It is really fascinating that that's the way they're going. Now, I assume, especially because of the point it just made, that the reason they're doing that is just to try to associate Trump with this and take Trump out and hurt Trump and divide the right and a bunch of stuff like that. So that might be the explanation for that.
Starting point is 01:15:25 But it is a fascinating take by the mainstream media. Earlier this week, I had Victor Davis Hansen on, who he's one of my favorite historians. Really, really bright guy. And I had him on and we were talking about, you know, communism and everything else and what's coming. And boy, if you missed Wednesday show, you missed a real show. See it on my YouTube channel, YouTube.com slash Glenn Beck. but it was all about communism and, you know, the coming civil war and how this is shaping up. In the end, I asked him about Epstein and what his thoughts were.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Listen to this. This is Victor Davis Hansen from Wednesday show. I think it's pretty clear now that Epstein had no talent other than blackmail. And he was not a financier. He was not a captain of finance at all. What he did is he invited very powerful people to his island. or his New York home, film them, and then he bribed them. And he shook them down and said, I'm going to be your quote, unquote, financial advisor. And in exchange for that, I'm not going to release all that stuff. And whether, you know, there were some pretty big people.
Starting point is 01:16:34 So why isn't it being exposed? Because I think it's not, I think there are people in the establishment. I don't know if they partook in his sick things he was doing. but they have some association with him and they have a finance they gave him money to invest when there was no reason to hire someone like that there were much better financial gurus but he got a half a billion dollars somehow from people who were mainstream establishmentarians on the basis that he was going to blackmail him i think that's how he made his money and i think those names are numerous and i think the trump administration thought well we're going to release this
Starting point is 01:17:15 and there's some crazy people that we don't care about are going to be embarrassed. And then all of a sudden, they got a lot of calls and said, why are you doing this? I didn't do this. I went down the island once. I was on a plane. I didn't touch anybody. And they're saying, and now you're going to release my name and I'll be guilt by, I'm not going to. And I think that's what's happening.
Starting point is 01:17:36 There's a lot of people who were very powerful that were giving him money or were trafficking with him. Not necessarily all of them engaging in what he was doing, but just the, association with them and I think they're putting pressure on people I really do does there come a time when you just have to say I'm really sorry but the country needs its credibility these offices need their credibility and if you're not if you're not guilty then you know I'll be there for you and look at your case and everything else but you know if you're guilty you're guilty we have to restore the credibility or we don't have a country.
Starting point is 01:18:17 Well, you summed up exactly what Pam Bondi and the FBI and people said to us in February. That's exactly what they said. And then something has changed in their attitude once they got into the data, the material. And the conspiracies say, well, you know, there's officials involved.
Starting point is 01:18:38 I don't know if it's, I think it's more maybe the donor class or people across the political spectrum that are very powerful influential and some of them were very terrified of Jeffrey Epstein and that's it I think you have to start with a premise how does somebody with no financial experience end up with no proven ability as a master of Wall Street with a half a billion dollars and when you start looking at who was giving him money to invest these were people who would never give him money and let him invest their money with that background and yet they did and the reason they did i think is that he showed them pictures or he
Starting point is 01:19:17 trapped and trapped them it is fascinating that comes from wednesday show you could also find that at my youtube channel youtube.com slash glenbeck by the way if you listen to us on spotify we're just talking to spotify um and we perform really really well but you can't find us you know in the top 10 or 15 and we're wondering why and they said well because your audience doesn't engage it doesn't comment or rank or rate. And so it's really important that you do those things. If you're watching us on YouTube, if you're watching us or listening to us on Spotify or wherever you get your
Starting point is 01:19:56 podcast, please rank and review, rate and review. It's really important to help us discovered, to be discovered by new audiences. All right, let me pause to tell you about Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Every time a first responder leaves her work, there's a question they carry, what happens to my family if I don't make it back? Maybe they don't spend a time dwelling on it, you know, but they all know it's a real deep concern. Tunnel to Towers was built to answer that very question.
Starting point is 01:20:25 When a hero falls in the line of duty, first responder or military, tunnel to towers pays off their mortgage. They step in and make sure the family has a home. They build it for the family, debt-free, so they don't have to worry about, you know, where they're going to go next, where they're going to end up, and they can lift that tremendous burden off of this family at a time of their maximum grief. They even build smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans,
Starting point is 01:20:51 fully customized to give them independence and dignity. And get this, Tunnel to Towers does it all with an average donation of $11 a month. This is how you honor service. This is how you care for those families who have been left behind. Donate $11 a month at Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org. That's T. The number two t.org. More Glenn Beck.
Starting point is 01:21:16 Coming up next. Hello, America. It's Friday. I think there's a real reason to believe what Victor David Hansen, Davis Hansen was saying about the possibility for what, what got Epstein into this role where he was controlling, you know, billionaire's money with direct access, power of attorney in some cases, over their fortunes. and without really the qualifications to have any reason to do so. And like, so his point, I think there's a legitimate case that it was potentially a black male situation for some of these people. I think there's another case of like they, he just, this was sort of their price to access these girls, right? Like, you know, to get into that inner circle, it may have been instead of being scared of being outed, this sort of ongoing process that they had access to them in a way that they wouldn't otherwise have access.
Starting point is 01:22:32 I think that's possible as well. There's also, I mean, the, the most innocuous explanation for it, and I don't know, it's hard to explain, but it is a thing that happens. I listened to a podcast years ago. It was called the mysterious Mr. Epstein, I think it was called. Yeah, yeah. And it was a podcast that kind of went through, focused on his more early life. Like, how did he rise to this level?
Starting point is 01:22:57 A bunch of the early episodes were about that. And, you know, the, They paint the picture. It really isn't inexplicable, but it's inexplicable in like several different aspects of his life. Like business, science. He was like warming his way into like high levels of science at like Ivy League universities. And like, that came from money. Eventually.
Starting point is 01:23:19 He was warming. Yeah, he was warming his way in there because he had so much money. He was one of these guys though. And if you think of like movies like, you know, catch me if you can. Right. Like where like there's some people that have that weird ability to work. worm themselves into these situations and talk themselves into access. What was the blood ladies name?
Starting point is 01:23:39 Elizabeth Holmes. Elizabeth Holmes. Right. It's a great example. She conned everybody. Yeah. No reason for her to, you would ever believe that she'd be able to rise to the level of prominence
Starting point is 01:23:50 and build this massive company and get an amazing board put together of people who had unquestioned credibility at the time. Oh, yeah. And like, there is an ability. of some people to just do this stuff. Now, obviously, when you tie in the fact that what we know about Epstein, there's a real reason to believe the others are the truth there, but that's probably the most innocuous explanation for how he got this access.
Starting point is 01:24:17 That could be true. I mean, look at Bernie and Madoff. You think these people know. They would know better. But, you know, when you have, you know, former president of the United States, Bill Clinton, you have all of these people that are like, no, he manages my stuff. You just assume, well, they know. They know.
Starting point is 01:24:39 I mean, I'm looking at it, and I don't get it, but they're not going to be duped. And so you get the right people, and you can dupe an awful lot of people like that. We've seen it again, Elizabeth Holmes, Bernie Madoff, and possibly Jeffrey Epstein. You're Glenn Beck. Are you doing this weekend, Stu? Um, it's a good question. Um, and it's a question that on Friday, I almost never had the answer to, Glenn. Uh, so. Here's the answer. The answer is clear every Friday, at least in my family. I don't know. Whatever my wife tells me we're doing. That's, well, that's exactly it. That's exactly it. I have no idea.
Starting point is 01:25:21 I don't know. She's, I'm sure she has made plans for my whole weekend. And, uh, I'm, I'm going to be happy doing all of those things. All of those things are probably great, you know, and I'm, and once I experienced them. I realized I just don't even think about that. Like, I don't even think about things ahead of time. Like, it's just always next event. You know what I mean? And that's why you never really, if you find it difficult as you get a, you know, certainly when you have kids and, you know, other business concerns and all that,
Starting point is 01:25:49 you don't have that time to like stop or sit around and just like think. That was interesting about being at the ranch, honestly. It felt like you did there at least a little bit. Now I know. Because there's no, there's no noise. There's no. There's no cable news. There's nothing.
Starting point is 01:26:04 There's no no. Every once in a while you're here. Yes. You're like, is that a cow? Wait a minute. That's the first time I thought all day. All right. Back on you.
Starting point is 01:27:13 Sick freak. It's Friday from the Standing Rock Ranch. We are so glad that you've tuned in today. Thank you so much. We're going to go through some of the stuff we've missed this week. Because we've missed a lot. There's been a lot going on. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:27:28 you've noticed. I don't know if you noticed your country is on fire. But we'll grab the fire extinguisher here in just a second. First, let me tell you about rough greens. You and your dog, you have a deal. You don't eat his food. He doesn't eat yours. The other day, you poured his kibbley and looked at you like, really? This is it. Again, like you're serving me a bowl of packing peanuts.
Starting point is 01:27:50 And, you know, he's kind of right, you know. That dry food, it's dead. It's nutritionally incomplete. and when you realize just how few nutrients they are that are left in this dry kibble food after they process it, let's just say, if you were your dog, I would have looked at, you know, I would have looked at where you wear it as well. It's not the dog food. It's a nutritional supplement that you need.
Starting point is 01:28:17 You sprinkle it on their food no matter what they're eating and it's full of vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants, stuff your dog actually needs, stuff they're not getting from kibble alone. And let me tell you, the difference, the difference is night and day. I hear this from everybody who has ever tried, Rough Greens, healthier coat, better digestion, an attitude that says, hey, thanks for finally figuring this out, human. There you have more energy. They're back to being a puppy again in many cases. Give them a call at 214 Rough Dog, 214 RUFF Dog, or go to roughgreins. use the discount code back and get to a first trial month for free you just pay for shipping discount code back call 214 r ufffgreens a healthy change for your changing dog it's roughgreens
Starting point is 01:29:03 all right let me go through uh go through some of the things first of all stew what do you think of what do you think the movie superman is it worth trying or should we wait until next week I mean, I have no reason to rush out and see it beforehand. I have seen a decent amount of reviews on it. And it feels... From regular people? From regular people, not as much. I would say more of like...
Starting point is 01:29:32 Yeah. More sane critics. Okay. You know, like, for example, I saw a bunch of posts yesterday from a friend of ours, Jean-Carlo, Sopo. We've talked to him in a while, but he's been doing some movie reviews. as part of his writing. And he was like, yeah, it wasn't this woke nightmare that everyone's saying it might be. Like he was, I mean, is that sabotage? Was somebody trying to sabotage this movie? You know, because, I mean, it was, it's like they were promoting it like it was Snow White all over again.
Starting point is 01:30:07 Yeah. Did you not learn this less in Hollywood? Nobody wants to hear that from you. I don't know if it was, I mean, it's interesting. I don't know if it was a, and it's some intentional thing they did? Like, you know, was it... Right. Or was it just an actor going way off script? And it was really started with the director, right? It wasn't a James Gunn with the first segment
Starting point is 01:30:30 where he was saying, hey, this is politics. It is a political film. You know, it's about a guy who's an immigrant and comes here from another place. And of course, it's political. That was the first thing I heard. And you'd think of anyone who would know to be careful about how you phrase it.
Starting point is 01:30:47 things. It would be James Gunn, who's basically canceled earlier in his career for making, you know, very, you know, offensive jokes on Twitter and lost the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, at least for a time. And you think just, let's make sure this is about the movie, and we're not doing anything that's going to ruin the promotion of this. Then, since then, there have been, I think his brothers said something. Other people involved in the movie have said something.
Starting point is 01:31:17 And there was also what would turn out to be a false internet rumor that was going around saying that they had changed the truth justice in the American way to truth just in the human way, which apparently is not true. Well, remember the last time they did Superman, they already had changed that. It was just truth and justice. There was no American way. Right. I think it's back to the American way now. I think it'd be great. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:43 And, you know, I've seen some stuff about. what happens in the movie certainly seems like Superman likes America in the movie from what I've heard so that sounds good so I mean I'm not a fan of these movies I'm not a fan of superhero movies
Starting point is 01:31:59 I don't really care honestly but it is from what I've heard it's not a great movie but it's also not a woke paradise either did you see F1 I haven't yet
Starting point is 01:32:13 does that is that really good oh oh my gosh Oh my gosh I really want to see it Oh you know what We should try to go see it Next week together
Starting point is 01:32:24 Let's go see it in IMAX Oh yeah yeah It is it is it is it's remarkable It feels like you are actually Driving the car at times One of the drivers Who's that kid that's driving Not for Mercedes now
Starting point is 01:32:37 But I can't remember But he said It is the closest thing To actually driving In an F1 race And it's a great storyline. It's one of those you know, you root for the underdog.
Starting point is 01:32:52 You know, Brad Pitt is completely, his character is completely likable. You just really and it's a good message too. I mean, it's not a message movie, but it's a good message in it as well. And it's just really good. If you liked Ford versus Ferrari, you're going to love this movie. I'm really into race car movies.
Starting point is 01:33:13 And I think this is the best race car movie. ever seen. Really? It's really good. Yeah, it's really good. Wow. It's really, really, really good. Made $120 million so far in theaters did much better internationally than most American releases.
Starting point is 01:33:31 Americans are more into NASCAR than F1. Yeah, F1. It's funny because, you know, as you know, Glenn, I like sports. I watch a lot of sports. I take in a lot of sports content. I have less knowledge about F1 than you do about almost any sport. I don't know anything about it. Like I didn't watch the documentaries.
Starting point is 01:33:50 That seems to be the real reason, though, why there's this increased interest. Yeah, they're good. They're great. That series is really good. Yeah. Really good. And you really start to understand. You're like, holy cow.
Starting point is 01:34:01 And when you understand these cars and how precise they are, I mean, it's really, really nuts. I'd love to go over to Lamont is at F1. Isn't it now? Yeah. Isn't it? Um, you don't know. What am I asking? I really don't know.
Starting point is 01:34:20 No idea. I won't be like you. Go ahead. Ask me a sports question about boxing or baseball. I won't be like you try to make some complicated analogy involving politics and F1 right now. I won't even attempt it because I know I don't know anything about it. So this is a lesson for you, Glenn. Right.
Starting point is 01:34:35 Right. Well, no. I mean, I think I've been pretty good on my analogies. I wasn't so good. I wasn't so good. And I'm, yeah, I've improved. It's not good. But I have improved.
Starting point is 01:34:46 No, you've gone. You know why? Because I don't give up. I keep trying, Stu. I'm not like you. I'm not a quitter. I keep trying. I mean, ask Beto O'Rourke.
Starting point is 01:34:56 Sometimes it's worth giving up. You know? Sometimes it's the right decision. Yeah. I saw something, a trailer for Lucky Larry's preposterous plan by Timeline Junkie films. And I'm not sure if this was done by AI or not.
Starting point is 01:35:18 not. It is such evil propaganda, but it is, I mean, it's evil because I think it's going to be extraordinarily effective. Look at the, watch this trailer, Stu. Watch this. 1.5 billion. Well, now that's just insane.
Starting point is 01:35:33 These vultures are trying to pluck my eyes out. Have you talked to Rudy yet? Rudy was the one who told me. That's the price. I mean, what do you want me to say? It's 1.5. It's just what it is. This is just when big things move, all parties have to be mutually, uh, you know, Well, it goes without saying somebody is incredibly miffed.
Starting point is 01:35:51 You made that deal. My guys told me 150 million tops. If I can't get that shit out of those walls for less than 1.5 billion, I'm Faca. You understand? I never should have listened to you. I never told you to buy two towers of Babel filled with asbestos. Nothing in New York real estate is that easy. You weren't buying a f*** deli.
Starting point is 01:36:08 I don't have 1.5. I need that shit out of the walls or I need those buildings gone. Which I told you is never going to happen. The demolition will probably cost more than it did to build the f***t things. See? For Gocta. At this point it costs less to get someone to fly planes into the building and collect the insurance. For that, you'd need terrorism insurance. I'll call you back. Deborah.
Starting point is 01:36:34 I'm right here, sir. Oh, I need you to find out what kind of terrorism insurance we've got on those piece of towers. This thing is, this is, I mean, look how well done that is. And that would appeal to people like my son who are young and, you know, it's just a different way of doing. a documentary. If this is AI, it's even more frightening because that can be done by anybody now with any crazy idea. I think it's almost definitely AI, right?
Starting point is 01:37:10 I mean, I think, right? I thought, I thought for sure it was. Yeah, it certainly seems like it's AI. Yeah. But again, and the point of that, if it was a little hard to understand, but basically they're, you know, it's this, they're saying 9-11 was not real and, you know, it was an inside job. No, they said it was real. It was because of an inside job because there was asbestos in the walls of the World Trade Center.
Starting point is 01:37:31 And so the owner was like, I'm not going to be able to afford this. This is crazy. It's going to cost us more than the buildings themselves. Let's fly buildings in and collect insurance. I mean, it's really evil. Come on. These theories, it was because he had his best. He was like so concerned about the asbestos in the wall that he killed thousands of people.
Starting point is 01:37:53 Like, it's so. I, everyone, it's so easy to apply these terrible, uh, motivations to other people, isn't it? It's so easy to do. It's just like, you just, well, what if they're the worst person and all they want to do is kill everyone all the time? It makes every, every, every little part of the, to explain the world so much easier. It really does, uh, except you, except you have to forget about who did blow up the world trade centers. You know what I mean? When you look at the World Trade Center and who was that?
Starting point is 01:38:29 That was Osama bin Laden and that group, not, you know, him per se, but those people are still trying to destroy us. And you're focused on this, really? I mean, it is the propaganda that is now out and against America is really overwhelming. I mean, how do you grow up today and actually believe in America? How do you do that? You have to find a place that will actually give you the truth about it. And that's really, really hard. You know, I know it's one of the things you're very highly concerned with right now
Starting point is 01:39:11 and is one of the reasons why you're building what you're building. I mean, if you can't find this information and where like when the people who are highly entertaining and engaging people are giving it to you in formats like that or on the conspiracy sort of side or just the typical Hollywood anti-American slot that they churn out. Man, it's it's it's a it's an uphill battle and you wonder why what was that chart we did we did that poll the other day where since you know basically the mid 2010s democrats have gone from 80% of being proud to be American to 36?
Starting point is 01:39:54 Basically, I mean, that doesn't, yeah. That doesn't happen just naturally. No. You don't fall like that naturally. There's no way. I mean, that is, that's carefully groomed. You've been carefully groomed.
Starting point is 01:40:08 And it's getting to the point. Listen to this. This is cut to, I think it's 11, from Canada, where the Royal Canadian Mounted Police staff sergeant says in an interview with Canadian News Channel that that someone who believed in equal gender rights
Starting point is 01:40:28 but then veers towards traditional values well listen to what she says what they're saying on a subject like becoming more extremist like and if someone you know was very believed in equal gender rights but all of a sudden are leaning towards like traditional values and that might be a sign that they're becoming more extremist. More extreme. This is this is a cop. This is, I mean, this is a spokesperson for the Royal
Starting point is 01:41:06 Mounted Police and you're becoming extremist if you're starting to go, you know what, I think the traditional values, that is just a total turning of everything upside down. Now listen to the president of the American. Academy of Pediatrics on CNN. Listen to this. Cut 12. For us, this isn't just about COVID vaccine. This is sowing doubt in families' minds about all the vaccines and vaccine delivery. A colleague of mine told me the other day that a patient shared with her, I trust you, but I no longer trust vaccines. And we need our leaders and everyone who has any interest in public health to be giving a clear message that vaccines are safe and it is how we protect our communities. We need to get
Starting point is 01:41:56 everyone making sure that they're confidently recommending patients get vaccinated as a way to protect their health and their community's health. Now listen to that. Listen to that. Without addressing why people, they're blaming it on RFK. People have been anti-vaxxers for a very long time. I don't know. That's not new. Okay. Why did it suddenly everybody go, vaccines are bad and I don't trust the vaccine and I don't trust the vaccine companies. And I don't trust my doctors per se or the federal government to tell me what to put into my body. Because they just forced you to put in a vaccine and they lied about it. And then none of them came out and said, hey, you know what?
Starting point is 01:42:39 We're really sorry. We just, we didn't know this. You know, and we're going to go put those people in jail or we're going to make sure those people aren't in charge of any of the vaccine. stuff. So they deny the very facts that led people to go, I don't trust any of you guys anymore. And what do they say?
Starting point is 01:43:02 We just need more propaganda. We just need people to be very, we need to shut people like RFK up. And we need people just to tow the party line and everybody say no vaccines are good. I think vaccines are great. I think vaccines have saved millions of people. But
Starting point is 01:43:20 I don't trust the vaccine. I don't trust people who are making them. I'm not going to trust them blindly. You know, before it was like, hey, you know, this has got some side effects. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now you come up with something new? No, I'd like to see that trial. I'd like to really dig into that now. And it's not because I don't trust vaccines. I don't trust the people who are making them. And I don't trust the people that are pushing them. I think it's healthy to be a little skeptical. But what are the people pushing all this stuff doing? They're saying, you can't be skeptical.
Starting point is 01:43:55 Well, that's not going to help on trust. Fix the problem that caused most of that. And that is, you forced people to take something that you lied about. Fix that. And you'll fix a lot of the arrest of the problem with vaccines. All right, back in just a second. First, you know, I wish burglars would just schedule a time. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:44:18 I'm so busy. You're busy. You just get home and you're in bed. And then it's like, what? You got to get up at 2 o'clock in the morning, you know, find my gun and then go prowl around the house. Can you just, just don't come in on an ounce. Just tell me and I'll be prepared.

You know, reason why we don't trust anything anymore? Because people like this can just keep saying things. Here's Jimmy Gomez. And it's fine if you're saying these things,
Starting point is 01:45:54 but you have to correct the record. It has to be corrected. And media is not correcting it. Listen to this. This is a Democratic representative. from California, Jimmy Gomez, Senator this, cut 13. Here's the thing,
Starting point is 01:46:09 they are not going after criminals. They're going after anybody that is brown, that looks like me, that can't pass as what they say as a typical American. Really? Is that what they're doing? I didn't know that. Did you know that still? That's what they're doing.
Starting point is 01:46:23 They're just picking up anybody that doesn't look like a, quote, typical American, end quote. I'm not sure what a typical American means, Mr. Jimmy Gomez racist. What does that mean exactly? What does a typical American look like? That's the way they would play it on us. If I said something like, a typical American.
Starting point is 01:46:43 What does that look like, Mr. Beck, racist? I don't know, Jimmy, what does it look like? And to say that our law enforcement are picking up people just because they have brown skin is the height of irresponsibility. What are you trying to do? You're trying to start a race war. That's exactly what you're trying to do. The good news is the typical Americans that are Hispanic, they're not buying into it.
Starting point is 01:47:06 Trump's numbers are growing and growing and growing with Hispanics because they see right through this crap. Yeah. Right through it. Yeah, the most recent stuff that came out from the election, which, you know, it takes a few months before they put in these really high level, really good voter data surveys. And that came out and showed that Trump won Hispanic males. And those are the people that they would, this guy. would tell you, oh, they're the ones getting raided at the, you know, getting arrested because they have brown skin. He actually won with that group. And that those numbers are going up month after
Starting point is 01:47:41 month. This is Glenn Beck. Every day, women walk into clinics feeling terrified and alone, out of options. Their boyfriend's gone. Their parents are pressuring them. They're stressed. They're confused. They're facing the biggest decision of their lives without any real support. Preborn is changing that. They're trying really hard. They offer her free ultrasound to women who are in crisis because when a mom sees her baby, sees him on an ultrasound. Here's the heartbeat. Everything changes. And it's that moment of connection that can be the difference between choosing life and choosing regret. Preborn doesn't just show them the truth. They stand by them. The counseling, the maternity care, the baby supplies, even housing.
Starting point is 01:48:28 Preborn walks these moms through every step of the way. And it all starts with a simple, powerful act of love. If you're a business owner, perhaps you can consider a larger donation for a write-off this year. Because, you know, we know the government isn't working to save babies. We have to double down on that. A donation of $1,000 or $2,000, even $20,000 go long, long, long way. All gifts are tax deductible and will reach into. the eternities. Get involved today.

Starting point is 01:49:02 250 keyword baby. Preborn.com slash back. Welcome to the Glenbeck program. It is Friday. You know, we've been talking today a little bit about how important education is, that we educate ourselves, that we figure out what is true, where we know what's true and we know what's not. And we stop just listening to people that are telling us what we want to hear. Now, maybe I'm one of those people for you. I urge you if I am. Don't take everything that I say as gospel. You should go and listen to somebody else and listen to somebody else's opinion that disagrees with mine
Starting point is 01:50:04 and find out who's telling the truth. I mean, when I first sobered up, I realized I knew nothing, nothing. And so I went out and I bought what I call what I call. the library of a serial killer. It took me a couple of years to do it, about five years to put it together, but it's about 7,000 books. And I started with everybody who disagreed with each other. So, you know, I guess I'm going to go and get Hitler and Jesus.
Starting point is 01:50:34 And then just read both of them and see, there are any intersecting lines here? And you just, you start at the extremes and then you just keep going in and you find where everyone is saying the same thing on both ends, you know that's pretty likely to be true. For instance, if you look at religions, you'll see a lot of religions say exactly the same thing, exactly the same thing.
Starting point is 01:51:03 There are big differences in some religions, but where they intersect, you know positively that's true. That's universal truth. But you have to. to open your mind and expose yourself to other things. And what's happening is we are all falling into this, and it's happening on our side too. We're all falling into this trap where we're only listening to our side.
Starting point is 01:51:29 And I think personally that we're better at listening to the other side, but it's very easy to stop listening to the other side. But you have to. And only then you'll be able to see, am I right? on this should i refocus or should i re should i rethink anything also you'll be able to spot propaganda here's bill nye the science guy on cnnon listen to this cut 15 everybody knows you pick up a bucket of water you know how heavy it is and you get a lot of water going that fast what are we going to do about it is the ancient question and it would be to stop burning fossil
Starting point is 01:52:11 fuels when you're in a hole stop digging and so on but the fossil fuel industry has been very successful in getting organizations like the U.S. Congress to think that it's really not happening. I don't even know where to start on that one, too. Wow. There's a lot of things we can go with. The Guadalupe River experienced major floods in 1936, 1952, 1972, 1973, 1978, 1988, 1980, 1980, 1987,
Starting point is 01:52:49 1991, and 1997. Just to name of you. What do all those things have in common? They're all after electricity. They were all after the invention of the car. There you go. That's true.
Starting point is 01:53:03 Of course, you know, there's been all sorts of flooding that has happened through this area and it happened all the time. Now, you can question... All the time.
Starting point is 01:53:11 I mean, honestly, the questions here, the serious questions, the serious questions do not involve a conversation over 0.9 degrees Celsius over a century. Those are not serious conversations when it comes to this particular situation in Texas. There are serious conversations to have, you know, when it comes to whether, you know,
Starting point is 01:53:30 a siren alert system should have been in place, you know. Can I ask you, though, can I ask you? Because we live in a place in Texas. We live in a place where hurricanes, I mean, sorry, tornadoes happen all the time. and those tornado sirens go off a lot. And it does stop you and go, wait a minute, what's happening? But then you also get used to it to where you're like, ah, it's just a tornado warning.
Starting point is 01:53:58 And that's when you get sucked up into the tube. You know what I mean? Yes. That's when all of a sudden you and your house are going up like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. Yeah. And without fail, the results of a tragedy like this is the person who's like, do I release this alert or not? decides to do it every single time there's even a question of it.
Starting point is 01:54:17 And that, of course, is what leads later on to people ignoring them. It really is a tough human. It's a human condition. It's tough. Yeah, I mean, I think like. But at least if there would have been, if there would have been sirens. And look, they've been talking about this for years. And then the area decided not to do it.
Starting point is 01:54:33 But if there were sirens up there, those kids would have been woken up. But would you have gotten out in time? Yeah. You don't know. At least you'd have a fighting chance, but still. Yeah. I mean, one of the, it was interesting. One of the things that they, they basically had a system in place.
Starting point is 01:54:51 And there's a bunch of different things they have. They have these radios, the NOAA radios that can alert you even, you know, in these situations. But one of the things they had in place was basically like a phone tree that like the, the, the communities, you know, up the river would actually like call down to the people down the river and alert each community because they knew, hey, this is coming. Like it was that type of system. And, you know, of course would work in most circumstances, right? Like when it doesn't work is when it's, you know, 419 in the morning. I mean, like there's a million things that could have happened here. I think you could really argue, right?
Starting point is 01:55:26 You know, where we would say, hey, we might ignore these flood zones. When you have a bunch of buildings in a camp that are in the most dangerous of these flood zones, you know, that shouldn't be your approach to awarding. Right. Like, there shouldn't be a possibility. that this could happen and maybe just, just, you know, the sirens being maintained by the camp, honestly, would have been a wonderful improvement to this.
Starting point is 01:55:53 Well, they didn't have, they didn't even have cell service at this camp. And that's why nobody's cell phone went off. But, you, I mean, those are easy fixes. Those are easy fixes. But, you know, for Bill and I, the science guy to go on. And then, you know, all this bull crap all week about how, you know, this administration is cutting all weather service.
Starting point is 01:56:12 It's like, what are you talking about? Ridiculous. I mean, and listen, here's Jasmine Crockett making the flood about her. Listen to this, 16. My heart is truly heavy for all of these families. The sad part is, I think that my heart is going to carry a level of weight that will continue to weigh me down as we have to continue to do our best to survive in administration that literally,
Starting point is 01:56:41 is against us. In administration that is doing everything in my mind to hurt us and not help us. And it feels like we're fending for ourselves. Oh, you mean like the people
Starting point is 01:56:57 of the hurricane victims in North Carolina? By the way, nobody was fending for themselves. It was the most, in fact, Mercury 1 told me it was the most effective disaster response.
Starting point is 01:57:13 Disaster relief that they have ever seen. We've been to a lot of disasters, and we've been to Florida disasters where they happen, they fix it quickly. They said Texas was all on top. Nobody was fending for themselves on this. That's the last disaster in the Carolinas, Jasmine, sweetheart. That's the last time when people were actually fending for themselves.
Starting point is 01:57:36 But you didn't claim that. You know, the last time they were also defending for them when they were in the wildfires of California. But you didn't, you didn't say that then. You're only saying it now. Why? Why? Don't you dare. We all know why.
Starting point is 01:57:52 Don't you dare criticize my girl. I love me some Jasmine Crockett. She's fantastic. As you heard there, that was a voice tone six accent C, if you're keeping track on your scorecard at home. and I absolutely love her in every way. She is like she puts AOC to shame with her idiotic nonsense. She's so stupid. And I love people like this.
Starting point is 01:58:24 That's why I don't want to mainstream her. I don't know. Are you kidding me? Absolutely. We should make AOC look like a genius. She'll everybody will go AOC. Thank God. You're here talking some dumb and sense.
Starting point is 01:58:39 That honestly could be the comparative problem. But I think people like AOC and Jasmine Crockett, like we should be rooting for them to be the voices of the Democrat Party because, you know, they tend to make the dumbest possible version of left wing arguments and make them passionately. And what I love about Jasmine Crockett is so confidently. like there is a and I'm, I'll say it right now, come back to me in 20 years and tell me if I'm wrong. There is a 100% chance she will be a panelist on the view.
Starting point is 01:59:15 There is a 100% chance that she is sitting next to Whoopi Goldberg or someone like that in the future. That's who you're wrong. I disagree. I'll take you up on a, I think it's 150% chance. You think I've undersold it. Like she'd be the perfect.
Starting point is 01:59:34 panelists. This like idiotic confidence combined with passion combined with stupidity. She's like in the intersection. It's called the view's circle. She's in the middle of it. Cars are whizzing by a zillion miles an hour. I love her. By the way, she is the ongoing current favorite to be the Democratic nominee for Senate here in Texas, which sets her up, I think perfectly. for a 28 presidential run. I mean, Beto did it.
Starting point is 02:00:09 It worked well for him. So I think I'm excited about the future, Glenn. These are good things. Let's celebrate them. We are so doomed. We are so dead. It makes me go, when's Groch 5 here?
Starting point is 02:00:25 When is Grok 5 just going to take over the world? You know, just kill us now, Grock 5, you know? Because I can't take this anyone. It's, it's, it's, it's so nuts. You know, and you're right about her confidence, and that's what bothers me so much. The, the level of ignorance and stupidity coupled with the level of moral righteousness and outrage, I just can't take it. I'm not strong enough, man.
Starting point is 02:00:59 I'm just not. I'm, I'm just, I'm just a. I'm just a human being. That's all I am. I can't do more than what I'm doing right now. And I don't think I can do any more on the Jasmine Crockett train. I just, there's so much more. You don't have a choice.
Starting point is 02:01:16 You're going to be dealing with this for a very long time. And, you know, the problem, of course, is our society and, you know, social media and everything else incentivizes literally this, right? Somebody who is a pretty decent communication. cater, I suppose. You know, she kind of passionate. She can get on camera. She knows how to talk to a camera.
Starting point is 02:01:40 She knows. She's as good at that. She is as good as that as Lizzo is at looking good. I would tell you. That's just not, that's not a very nice comment. In any way, it's probably. Are you saying that Lizzo's not the most beautiful woman you've ever seen? How dare you?
Starting point is 02:01:59 I am saying. I am saying. Black. I know. Not at all. I am saying, though, yes, she. not the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. But I bet you say that that Jenner woman isn't isn't the most beautiful you've ever seen.
Starting point is 02:02:15 I would also say that the Jenner woman is not even a woman, let alone the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. But this stuff, you know, it just to quickly finish that, it incentivizes this stuff. So there's always someone dumber and louder around the corner. Like that's the problem with AOC. I mean, like, you know, she hears you. she was king of the stupid mountain for all of those years and now Jasmine and Crockett
Starting point is 02:02:39 comes in, it just knocks her right off the top. I mean, this is such a fun contest to watch. It is a race to the bottom. It really is. I've never seen a faster race to the bottom than what we're experiencing right now. All right, let me tell you about our sponsor. It's a relief factor. Some mornings you wake up and it feels like your whole body missed the memo.
Starting point is 02:02:56 You know, your knees are talking back. Your back won't cooperate. You stretch and something pops that shouldn't. Pain starts to change things little by little. You start saying no to things like hikes and and travel and evening walks and you know you're just not sure you can handle it and suddenly the life you used to love starts to feel a little smaller that's when people start looking for something that works something real something like relief factor that's where it comes in came in for me it's a daily supplement developed by doctors to target the root causes of pain not just mask the symptoms back neck shoulder hip knee whatever it is relief factor is helping thousands of people get back the life they love because when pain stops controlling your choices every everything opens up again, the places you can go, the people you can see. Why do I sound like I'm reading a Dr. Seuss book? If pain is writing your story, maybe it's time to start a new chapter.
Starting point is 02:03:46 Give their three-week quick start a try for only 1995. Visit Relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief, 800, the number four relief. This is Beck. Let's go to Julie in Oklahoma. Julie, you're on the Glenn Beck program. Hi. I just wanted to tell you that my husband and I were invited to the Superman preview last night, so we saw it. Oh yeah. And I did hear the woke comments before we went. And Glenn, I have ADD2, so I may have totally missed, you know, woke stuff lying at me. But we really enjoyed it. So I just wanted to let you know that since we were talking about earlier. That's great, Julie. Thank you so much for the phone call.
Starting point is 02:04:56 That's good news. That's good news. I hope it's not there. I mean, frankly, if it's not obvious to you, I don't have that big. I'm not going to worry about it that much. Hollywood is Hollywood. They're going to come out. We know what their messaging is.
Starting point is 02:05:10 We know it's going to be left-wing messaging, if there's any in there. If they can make an entertaining movie and not beat me over the head with it, that's the normal state of affairs in our country. And I'm used to that. I can deal with it. What I don't want it is just to be pounded in the, face constantly with the left-wing messaging. And I will say, I'm a little worried about it with Superman, but frankly, the preponderance
Starting point is 02:05:35 of evidence here makes me think it's not that bad as far as the woke stuff goes. Now, the movie does not seem to be incredibly great, but maybe has its enjoyable parts. And, you know, it's a popcorn flick. It's a Sunday. You know, it's a summer movie. And if you can get that out of it and just enjoy, you know, watching, you know, a, you know, a moment into a fantasy world where, you know, a lot of the things that are going on that are terrible aren't real. Well, that's great. And that's good news. Another good news here. Could we have clip
Starting point is 02:06:06 22? We have time for this real quick. Clip 22. If you're traveling this weekend, this is good news for you. Today, we have started a new no shoes policy with the Department of the Transportation Security Administration. TSA will no longer require travelers to remove their shoes when they go through our security checkpoints. So there you go. Christy Noem. I mean, now I will say, I hope the TSA is also considering a requirement of wearing shoes when on the plane. So you don't have to take them off in line, but you got to keep them on when you get on the plane.
Starting point is 02:06:40 And back.
