The Glenn Beck Program - Why People MUST Go to Jail for Biden's Health Cover-Up | 5/20/25

Episode Date: May 20, 2025

While Glenn doesn’t trust the government or the FBI, he trusts government officials like Dan Bongino and Kash Patel. But when America is this close to collapsing, Glenn demands transparency. Glenn discusses the discussion he had with an undisclosed source to the FBI regarding Epstein’s suicide. When will more information be released? Glenn and Stu discuss Biden’s cancer diagnosis. Was Biden’s doctor just incompetent and missed the cancer, or was this kept from the American people? Even Democrats admit that Biden likely had cancer during his presidency. Will people go to jail for hiding this from the American people? Glenn reacts to the Left’s outrage over a congresswoman facing charges after storming an ICE detention center. What type of country do you want to live in? Stu outlines the current hurdles within Congress holding back Trump’s "big, beautiful bill." Glenn elaborates on what stage America is at and how close we are to a collapse. The guys discuss an article from the New York Times that advocates for pornography. Learn more about your ad choices.

I have an update on the Epstein files and so much more standby in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about my Patriot supply. If you've ever gotten the feeling something's off. I mean, I felt it when I saw that China was buying up all kinds

of acreage and farmland. Not just a few acres here and there, but they are scooping up tens of thousands of acres of prime agricultural land in strategic locations. Even land suspiciously close to U.S. military bases, and nobody seems eager to stop them at all. If you're planning for a global crisis, wouldn't you start by locking down the food supply? That's why I trust My Patriot Supply. They've been ahead of the curve for years, offering long-lasting emergency food kits that can feed your family when the shelves go bare or foreign powers decide to test our resilience. I want you to go now to MyPatriot Supply. my patriot supply.com.

You can't control how prepared you are. Go to mypatriotsupply.com playing your 12 days of free food. Mypatriotsupply.com. All right, welcome to the program. We're so glad that you have, you've tuned in today. Hello, Stu. How are you?

Glenn, how are you? Hope you're doing well. Now I'm not hearing anything. I have to tell you. Oh, boy. Okay, maybe. Hello, Stu. How are you?

Glenn, I'm doing well. How are you? Oh my gosh, I've never been better. I am kind of in a really bad, we'll do it live, kind of mood today. So you never know what might happen. Let me start with, I got off the phone with a very well-placed source in the FBI. Very well-placed source. one that has access and knows.

Would you agree with that description, Stu? I would, yes. Yeah, okay. And I said, well, first of all, it started with the Mediite article, which I'll get into here in a second. And I said, I'd just like to know what Dan saw that changed his mind because I know Dan Bonchino. I know Cash Patel.

I like both of those guys. I trust both of those guys. I do not trust the government. I don't trust the FBI. I don't trust the DOJ. I don't trust the Treasury. I don't trust the Fed. I don't trust the milkman at this point.

So I think most of America is like that. My point yesterday was to make sure that we all understand that the lack of trust in our government is very, very dangerous. And none of us should be doing anything to enhance that lack of trust. Now, how do you repair it? Well, not by ignoring it, not by just saying, don't talk about it. You have to address it head on. So I trust Cash Patel and I trust Dan Bongino.

And I have said on this program, I am going to give them a year before I say anything, including Pam Bondi. I'm not going to sit here and condemn them for what I don't know what is happening. I know they're both, or all three of them, are surrounded by sharks. Okay. I know that the corruption is very deep in the FBI and the DOJ. So if I'm not seeing some arrests in the next year, a year from now, I will be coming on and I will be saying things. And Dan Bongino and Cash Patel would be the first to say, you should be. But the point I was making yesterday is I gave you the seven phases of arrest.

republic or an empire. And all empires in history have fallen. And the last two things, the only two things that remain in this, you know, three thousand year epic story of the rise and fall of multiple empires, when you look at all of them, there are only two things left before we fall. And that is a complete lack of trust in everything and a collapse of the dollar. That's it. That's it. After that, we're done. And so yesterday I said, I don't believe, I mean, I don't know what to believe, but I don't believe that Epstein killed himself. Now, that is my belief, as I said to you yesterday. We cannot operate. just on belief.

We need facts. And in my monologue yesterday, I was saying, what kind of facts would you need to believe? For some people, Cash Patel and Dan Bongino, coming out and saying that is enough. I told you yesterday, Stu, remember when we played the video of Dan Bongino saying, I've seen the evidence, he didn't kill himself.

Remember? what I said right after that, he's telling the truth. You have that video? Go ahead. Play the video. You said Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. People don't believe it. Well, I mean, listen, they have a right to their opinion, but as someone who has worked as a public defender, as a prosecutor who's been in that prison system, who's been in the Metropolitan Detention Center, who's been in segregated housing, you know a suicide when you see one, and that's what that was. he killed himself. Again, you want me to get, I've seen the whole file.

He killed himself. I believe him. I believe him. That's not good enough for America, however. Now, I have also said on this program, do you want to feel good or do you want people to go to jail? I want people to go to jail.

That's why I said with Pam Bondi went on day number two after that debacle of the release of the file, I said, look, perhaps this is because they're still gathering evidence. They want to put people in jail, yada, yada. I don't know why they withheld that evidence. But to believe that Pam Bondi, because I asked the president on this, to believe that Pam Bondi has sold out and then Cash Patel and Dan Bongino all sold out means that you must then believe that Donald Trump knows it and is part of it. That's the problem. Who is left to believe? Now, I want to see the evidence because the country must see the evidence. you don't fix you don't fix things and they know this you don't fix things by saying you know what

trust me dan bonjino you've heard him for years he's never said that to me i never heard him say that on the air trust me he doesn't that's not the way he is he's very much like me don't trust me i don't ask for your trust i don't want your trust i don't ask for your trust don't trust anyone in my position. You can trust that we have the best intentions, but don't take anything I say as gospel truth, because it's not. It's my opinion. It's the understanding of what is going on to the best of my ability. You can trust my intentions, but don't trust what I say. Do your own homework. The only way truth is sustainable is if it's your truth. Anybody who, if you're a Christian, you know this. You have a testimony. You can't feast on somebody else's testimony. I can't sit here and fix the country or feast on the testimony of Donald Trump, of Cash Patel, of Pam.

And we've lost Glenn here. Pam Bondi, he was talking about as well as a real problem. Glenn, I think you might be back with us here. Sorry about that little drop. Okay. Yeah. You're saying you can't just release. everybody your trust. Correct. Correct. And people that you should trust tell you, don't trust me. Do your own homework. It has to be yours.

So the thing that we are waiting for that has to happen is the release of information. And that will come. And if it doesn't, well, then you have a problem. But it will come. I talked to this source yesterday. Now, I have read stories that disagree with this. Just yesterday, I think NPR, a very reliable source, as reliable as media.

A very reliable source says that there is no tape of the hallway in front of the prison cell. I talked to a well-place source yesterday at the FBI that told me, yep, that tape does exist. And I saw it. And I saw the last person to go in the cell when he was alive and the first person to go back in the cell after he was dead. And I said, so there was no foul play. He said, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, I want to separate two things. One, did someone go in the cell and kill him? Did somebody kill him?

The answer, because of the video evidence that they say they saw. and I believe this source, they said the video evidence shows no one went into that cell. No one. Okay. But it doesn't show the cell. It doesn't show what happened. That's the first thing. Now the second thing.

So are you saying there was no, I mean, all of this was a coincidence? No, no, no. I am not saying that. I am not saying that there wasn't a desire to set him up. might have been a desire to have somebody go in and kill him. It's a long string of things that happened that don't make any sense. Was there a conspiracy to kill him? I don't know.

But probably a lot of people needed him dead. But did he kill himself or was he murdered by those people? The answer is he killed himself. Now that doesn't mean you don't create the conditions that make you want to kill yourself. And I don't mean just sending you to prison. Yesterday I spent all morning and I'm so frustrated because the republic is at stake. You know that and I know that. I try to do my best to not, I mean, Stu and I talked about this yesterday.

You know, neither one of us are the type to go in. I mean, if something happened, you know, at a store or something got it wrong and we're just, you know, and it's going to be a fight. Both Stu and I are both like, I just leave it alone. I don't care. Because we don't like conflict in our life. And yet this is what we do for a living. This is not what we wanted to do.

started doing this show because we were making fun of talk radio. And then it got serious after 9-11 and we found ourselves doing it. We don't like conflict. I'm from an alcoholic family. I was the one that tried to make everybody laugh so we didn't, you know, didn't see mom or, you know, dad falling down the stairs or whatever was happening. I don't like conflict. but I find myself in a situation where the truth does cause conflict. And you must discipline yourself to search for the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. We cannot live in sound bites. We must understand the depth of what is going on.

Because as I'm going to tell you here in a few minutes, there is a new concerted effort to bring our streets into chaos, bring our country into chaos. The left, the, I shouldn't say this, the Democrats are completely dead. It is run now by the Uber dangerous left. That's who's calling the shots. And that they are going to, well, I'll use their own words, do everything that they've done in the past. and take it to the next rung on the ladder. That's a quote.

You want to save your republic. We cannot dismiss the people that we have grown to trust, that we have put our faith in. We need to give them time and let them show us the evidence. I want to see some arrests on a few things. I want to see the, the progress being made.

You know, there was a story about the FBI building itself that bothered me yesterday. And I think we talked about it, but briefly, and it bothered me. And I want to tell you about that coming up in just a second. Stand by. First, let me tell you about Lear Capital. The U.S. national debt has surged over $36 trillion. And if the current trend continues, it could hit $54 trillion within the next 10 years. Moody's just downgraded the U.S. credit rating pointing to sky-high federal spending and political dysfunction that is blocking any meaningful fiscal reform.

Congress, this must be done. You know what they're arguing over right now, Stu? You know the big beautiful bill? Do you know what the Republicans are arguing about right now? Many things, but what? The main thing is whether they should give the president all of the cuts in the president. the Green New Deal. Yeah, that's amazing.

Republicans are doing that. Republicans, if your Republicans are still looking at the Green New Deal and not understanding what that is, you should lose and I'll help campaign against that person. That should be the biggest

no-brainer ever. We must cut the deficit. and the debt. Now, are we going to get that done? I don't know. Most likely not. We'd be the first people in the history of mankind to turn it around at this point, but I still believe we can, but I'm hedging my bet, and I would suggest you do the same. Do you know that gold has climbed over 20% since late 20, 24?

Cash Patel was saying, you know, we've got to show America that, you know, this is a strong institution and honorable.

and we need a building that is worthy of this. And I immediately thought of cash telling me, I'd move all of these people out, I'd break this thing up, and I would not build a new building. That story, the stories that I read yesterday, was written in a way to make you believe that maybe they are just moving over to this new building.

No, they're not. They're not. And they have moved thousands of FBI agents out of the office. Why? What are they trying to do? They're trying to break up the cabal in the FBI. They're trying to get it back into our cities so it's not focused on politics. They're trying to break the back of this institution that has done good and is now doing a lot of bad. So they're trying to break up the cabal. They're firing people. They're moving people. And they are also going to be announcing

that they are saving us billions of dollars and I'll let them handle that. But we have to know that most of the middlemen are have no desire to save the country. A lot of the middlemen.

I was talking to this person well, I'm not going to get into it. I don't ask for your trust. I don't want your trust. I want you to do your own homework. And I want you to follow your gut, do your homework, then get down on your knees and pray, Lord, what is true? What do I need to do with this information? And how can I help save the Republic? If you're not on your knees asking him that, does he's the only one? May God

save the Republic. This is Glenn Beck. Identity theft, feels like getting robbed in slow motion. It doesn't hit all at once.

news yesterday. Scott Adams, a friend of the program, has announced his terminal prostate cancer diagnosis. I just want to play a little of it. It's brutal what he had to say. Listen. Some of you have already guessed. So this won't surprise you at all. But I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has.

So I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones. But I've had it longer than he's at it. Well, longer than he's admitted having it. So my life expectancy is maybe the summer. I'd expect to

I expect to be checking out from this domain sometime in the summer. Cancer is, I mean, it's affected all of our lives, all of our lives. It is so horrific. And the kind that Joe Biden has and Scott Adams has is extraordinarily painful. Now, Scott is, you know, he's a guy who campaigned for medical assist suicide. So he's going that route. He said, I'm going to take it for as long as I possibly can. But the pain is just beyond imagination.

And I'm going that direction, which is very sad. But I got to tell you, I don't, AI can't come fast enough on stuff like this. We are so close to curing this stuff. AI is going to find ways quickly to give us answers on this. Now, he said he tried the ivermectin thing, the thing that Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson, you know, we're talking about. And he said that doesn't work.

For him, he said it might work for other people, but it didn't work for me. In fact, didn't he say it made it worse, too? He said, yeah, the levels, what was it, the PSA levels after he took it actually went way way up. So again, he did say, you know, I think that is important because a lot of people, I've heard a lot of hope on that.

And of course, we always look for hope in these situations. But at least in this particular case, he said it did not help at all. So yesterday, Zeke Emanuel, who was the guy who designed the complete live system. He's the guy who helped design Medicare. He was the chief medical advisor for the Obama administration. Obamacare.

The guy is not, yeah, Obamacare. He is not some Republican hack. He is the exact opposite of that. He is a far lefty that believes in universal health care and Barack Obama and all that. He came out yesterday and he said, there's no way that Biden didn't know this. He's had it for a very long time. time. There's no way he didn't have it for a very long time. It doesn't metastasized to the bone

in the last, you know, in the last, you know, couple of months. Go ahead, Steve. I just would just a slight clarification there. You may have heard something additional than what I heard, but he, his point seemed to be it was there the whole time, not necessarily that he knew it was there the whole time, but that it was there and it was growing for at least his presidency and maybe a decade. But he didn't necessarily. say, hey, he was hiding it. You don't have, well, you don't have that kind of aggressive cancer without it showing up somewhere unless your doctor is completely incompetent.

So this, there's only two answers to this one. Did the doctor only tell Joe Biden, but he was so mentally incompetent? He forgot to tell anybody else and he forgot he had it. was he told and they kept it quiet, was, did the doctor miss it somehow? There's no way you can get this kind of cancer and it just shows up right at the very end. There's no way. And the president gets the best health care available.

Yeah, I think that's the biggest point because I think this thing, type of thing, could happen to a normal person. Like to an every average, everyday Joe that goes to the doctor and gets these things checked out only because they really feel like, you know, because their wife is bugging them. And they check it every few years. And, you know, there are some of these cancers that don't show up in the testing. Some of them don't show up until you have actual symptoms, which is what Biden is claiming. That being said, when you're Joe Biden, when you're the president of the United States, and we should note also the vice president. of the United States.

It's just impossible to believe that with all of the testing and all of the medical attention, unless he was refusing it, which I do think is possible, but unless he was refusing it, it just seems impossible that they wouldn't catch this before it got to this level, which is just a devastating level. I don't believe you have a right to refuse when you're the president of the United States. The way I understand the Constitution and from everybody I am, have ever, you know, uh, talked to that has been in charge of the safety of the president. You don't have a choice on some things.

Sorry, Mr. President. You belong now to the country. You can't choose where you're going. We say it's dangerous. You're not going there. Um, you know, you can't, you can't tell the, the doctor what he can check and what he can't check. And if that's, if that did happen, then that's a real problem with our system.

We have to know. You know, we would have been, if Donald Trump wouldn't have won, we would have today been talking about, oh my gosh, Kamala is going to be president of the United States, and he's going to be dead soon. We'd be transitioning power right now. This is unacceptable. If the doctors didn't know it, it's unacceptable, period. If the doctor did know it and it was kept from the American people, it is unacceptable. Now, this is what happened with FDR, and this is one of the reasons why the Democrats, FDR was a Democrat, the Democrats after the death of FDR said, no four terms, no more, no more.

He gathered way too much power. He could do anything he wanted, no more, only two terms. That was his own party that did. that. Now, you know, after Barack Obama, if he was running a third or a fourth term, I would clearly be on the other side and going, no more, no more, no more, no more. But do you think Barack Obama supporters would have done it? These were FDR supporters. And they knew he was in congestive heart failure. When he went over with Stalin and Churchill, where was it in Iran, it was the other one, where they're making.

the final peace deals. And he's sitting there. They know he's dying. Everybody knew he was dying. But they didn't tell the American people. They knew he was dying in the third term. Didn't tell the American people. Well, you know what?

This is our country. We choose a leader for our country. And his responsibility is to protect our country and our rights. And if you build anything on lies, you can't do that. You can't be effective. You can't be effective truth teller if your own house is built on lies. Can't.

And I think this is something. The doctor should be in front of Congress by next week. And this is something I think we need to codify into law, perhaps the Constitution. I mean, we're now looking, if you go back to Woodrow Wilson, we've had 18 presidents since Woodrow Wilson. Since we've had FDR, you mentioned. Obviously, Woodrow Wilson had a stroke and his wife was running the place. Now Joe Biden, certainly a very close call with Ronald Reagan,

who just a few years after leaving office, you know, had Alzheimer's. We're talking about basically 20% of our presidents are in this situation over and over and over again that we keep dealing with. That is completely insane. You know, you think about how many times do we talk about... May I add another one? Yeah, go ahead.

Kennedy. Kennedy was on so many drugs. Nobody knew how much pain he was in. Nobody had any idea. Nobody knew how drugged up he was. He was on so many drugs to keep him out of pain. Now, I don't know if that impaired him, but, you know, I imagine it was narcotics at the time.

I mean, we should look this up. Ask chat GP, what they were getting, chat GPT, what they were giving him and see if it's mentally impairs you. But I know they were shooting him up with all kinds of stuff all the time. So, you know, add another president to that. Yeah, that's completely impossible for a nation to, I mean, think about the situations that JFK was dealing with in his presidency. Think about the ones that Joe Biden just was. You know, I mean, the Ukraine-Russia thing spiraling out of control was a real possibility. We all sat here, watched that debate, and then sat here for month after month after month of Joe Biden, remaining president of the United States while we were on the verge potentially of World War III. That is an unacceptable situation. This has to be codified into law, perhaps the Constitution, that these health investigations go on in some very visible way to the American people.

It's great. And I will say add on if you want, the left will say the same thing about Donald Trump. I mean, we should just know. That's it. I don't believe that Donald Trump has any health problems, but like we should all be very, very clear on this. Everybody left and right should be able to see this stuff so they can feel comfortable that their president is actually their president.

This isn't 100 years ago with Woodrow Wilson anymore. It's the most recent president. And now, after he's out of office, everybody admits it. Yeah, well, I think some people need to go to jail on this one, too. I mean, I don't know what the laws are. I leave that to the DOJ. But, I mean, Congress should investigate everybody involved, the doctor, all the people covering up, all the people that were feeding executive orders and pardons into that auto pen for Biden, especially by the end.

You know, there are three people that were very, very instrumental. in being the body people for, you know, Biden. I'm sorry, you can't see him. He's really busy right now. There were three people. And I'd like to see those three people in front of Congress testifying because this cannot happen. I don't want it to happen with Donald Trump

or the next president or the next president or the next president. I don't care what party they're in. For the love of Pete, this is our country. Okay, more in a minute. Let me tell you about American financing. For a long time, time the game was really, really simple. You work hard, you pay your bills, and then maybe, you know, if you stay out of debt, maybe you build something you can pass on to your kids.

Well, that game has changed. Interest rates have surged. Inflation has dug its claws into everything, everything from gas to groceries, you name it. You're paying more for it today. This cannot continue. The team in American financing specializes in exactly this. They're not a bank. They're a family owned loan, you know, a bank. I don't know

what they are, but they're not a bank. They're family owned and they help make loans for you. They go out and they find the loans. They're a loan broker, I think. And they go out and find the loans for you that fit what you're looking for. They're the people that come together and

Via the mind and mouth of Glenn Beck. More next. Most homeowners worry about break-ins or you know, you've got to have your deadpoles. You've got to have your security cameras. You've got to have your alarm systems. All of this to stop thieves from getting into their house. But what if someone could steal your entire home without ever stepping foot on your property? That's exactly what home title theft does, and in 2025, it is happening more than ever.

These criminals work from anywhere with an internet connection. They target homes with good equity, and your home might be next. This is how it works. They just find your property information online. Public records can make it pretty easy. They forge documents with your name and signature. They file these fake papers with the county. And just like that, your house legally belongs to them.

The scary part, nobody checks if this is real. county clerks process the paperwork like any other transaction. And once they own your title, they move fast. They can take out huge loans against your property. Sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars. Then they vanish without really telling you anything and they keep the money.

had it when he was president of the United States. Oh yeah. He did not develop it in the last 100, 200, days. He had it while he was president. He probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021. Yes, I don't think there's any disagreement about that. So you see his wording there. That's Ezekiel Emmanuel, by the way, certainly a Democrat,

talking about Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis. He's not exactly saying that he knew about it that entire time. He's just saying it was there and growing. These things just don't. develop that fast. And, you know, thankfully so. But it is a situation where you think a doctor, a situation where a patient has doctors like Joe Biden had access to, this would be easy to discover. That doesn't mean that like everybody knows about it in time. I think a normal person who, you know, maybe isn't as attentive to his health, you'd think might miss something like this. And it does creep up on people, right? It does. And it, you know, if you find it earlier, you obviously try to do something about it. It's, you know, if it's in this stage, it means you missed it, you'd think.

In this situation, the question is not whether, you know, necessarily he knew about it 10 years ago and just didn't do anything about it. Maybe that's the truth. But the question is, did they know about this serious diagnosis earlier and then delayed it? I want you to think for a moment about what today's show would be if we didn't find out, if that debate went a little bit better, or maybe they canceled the debate. There was talk about that at the time. And Joe Biden somehow squeaked his way through the presidency.

The media beat up on Donald Trump enough and he, you know, lost a couple. I mean, again, the margin at the largest, the largest margin in the blue wall states that Kamala Harris needed to win was 1.7 points. That's how close the election actually was. Let's just say somehow Joe Biden made it through. won the election. What we would be talking about today is Joe Biden resigning the presidency and handing the presidency to Kamala Harris with this diagnosis. That's how serious it is. It's all stuff that we worried about. Obviously, the health was part of it, the physical health,

but the mental health was widely available information to anyone with eyes. And that's what all these books are about now, I guess just confirming that all the stuff that we heard in the media where lies that entire time. We'll get into that coming up this hour. The book is out today, by the way, Original Sin. That's the Jake Tapper Alex Thompson book. And more books are coming. Everyone's talking now. And we'll keep talking about it. This is Glenn Beck. You know, the most life-changing moments are loud, big events, big decisions, big drama. But every now and then, a life changes almost in complete silence. Imagine for a minute that one of those moments just involves you and your phone on a 10-minute phone call that might be worth

tens of thousands of dollars. That's an American financing kind of experience, and it happens every day. No high pressure sales tactics, no application forms. You've got to fill out and triple copy. Just conversation, 10 minutes, maybe less, where a mortgage consultant walks you through your options, listens to you. I mean, you could refinance your house, get rid of those high interest credit cards. Your monthly payment would be freed up and room in your budget. Finally get out from underneath that debt without adding years. to your mortgage, or maybe you just hang up the phone a little more informed with no obligation at all. But that call a 10-minute window in the middle of your day might be the thing that

starts to turn everything around. So call Americanfinancing.net. Now, Americanfinancing.net, the number is 800-906 2440. 800-906 2440. It's Americanfinancing.net. Hello, America.

I want to ask you, have you heard anybody offer a plan of the kind of world that you want to live in. Taylor Lawrence has just come out. Now she's in my opinion, a horrible human being, and she's got a long history of it, but as she was talking about Biden's cancer

diagnosis, quote, hopefully he rots in hell and rests in piss. I don't like Joe Biden. I think Joe Biden did horrible things to our country. As a politician, I think some of the most embarrassing moments of America came

under his administration. But I wish him peace. I wish him a longer life than I think he has. I pray for him. I hope he's not in pain. And I hope he rests in peace. When did we get into this situation to where, I mean, she's on the other side

or somebody she's admired and liked and then does some things she doesn't like. She says that about it. them. How about this? Do you want this kind of country? Please play the Tim Walls, saw it from the other day. Donald Trump's modern-day discapcoop is scooping folks up off the streets. They're in unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons, no chance to mount a defense, not even a chance to kiss a loved one goodbye, just grabbed up by masked agents, shoved into those fans and disappeared. To be clear, there's no way for us to know whether they were actually

criminals or not because they refused to give them a trial. We're supposed to just take their word for it. I'm going to get into this a little later about the refusal to give them a trial. There's a lot of things in this country that this country does that we don't insist on a trial for American citizens. So we'll get into that a little later. But just comparing this lawful and constitutional act, he says that it's the Gestapo, and we're sending them off to foreign torture chambers. That's a new one. I didn't hear that one. Are you aware of the foreign torture chambers we were sending them to, Stu? That's news to me. Then, yesterday, you have a U.S. attorney saying,

quote, today my office has charged Congresswoman McIver with violence of Title 18 United States Code Section 111 for assaulting, impeding, and interfering with law enforcement. And what is Swalwell's reaction? A red line has been crossed. Trump is prosecuting his political enemies in Congress. This is just,

the beginning. We must take whatever we've done before to show dissent and go one rung higher. And to save your BS documents on this, you'll need them when you testify.

Okay. Let's take that statement. This is a representative of the United States of America. A red line has been crossed. Yeah, but I think we see a different red line.

We see a line where people do not pay for their actions anymore and they get away with anything, and especially if they're privileged. They don't ever pay a price. So a red line has been crossed. Nobody seems to pay for their actions. Even though there are laws, we're a nation, not of laws, but of men. Here's a woman who decides she's going to do what she wants.

It's clear. It's on videotape. She now is being prosecuted by the DOJ, as everyone who breaks the law should be. And he says Trump is prosecuting his political enemies in Congress. Let me ask you something. Congresswoman McGuiver? I've never even heard of her. I've heard of the TV show, but I never even heard of her. He is not worried about Congresswoman McGa.

She is not an enemy of Donald Trump. That's the most ridiculous thing. I've ever heard. She's a nobody. Then he says, this is just the beginning. We must take whatever we've done before to show dissent. Okay. Well, that has been shooting at the president of the United States. That has been stirring things up against the SCOTUS and actually having one of your supporters go and try to kill two of the Supreme Court justices. We've seen you burn down. Minneapolis. We've seen you burn down city after city. We've seen you rape and pillage cities. We've seen Portland, what you're doing in Portland. What is the next rung on that ladder?

Successful revolution? We must take whatever we've done before to show dissent and go one rung higher. There is a storm coming. And you have to decide. what side you're on right now, and it's not about politics. It's not. It's about what kind of country do you want to live in? One side, Donald Trump's side, is talking about when America was great, but America wasn't great for everybody. We all know that. He knows that. But I think there's a better way to define that, and I think we should start defining it differently, because we need something aspirational. And aspiration, it doesn't come just from success. It doesn't come from money or Any of that stuff.

Where does inspiration come from? Higher ideals. One side is saying we're going to get more violent. One side is saying we're going to take what we've done before to show dissent, which is not Martin Luther King. They don't believe in Martin Luther King anymore. I wish they did, but they don't. One says, we're going to do that.

And the other says, well, here's what we're going to do. we're going to we're going to make America profitable again we're going to set things right we're going to start charging people with crimes that's all good all of that stuff is good

but let me lay out another vision what do you want your country to be like I want a country where we all know that there is no ruler over the other

I don't care your education I don't care your class. I don't care where you were born, how you were born. I don't care if you're from a foreign country or your people have been here since the Pilgrims or before. I don't care. I want a country where we're all looking at each other and going, man, you got a shot just as much as I do.

Now, that doesn't mean that everybody is guaranteed a success. It just means that we all start as an individual, not in our stations, but as an individual. equal and we should be judged on the character, the content of our character, who we are, and what we produce. I want to live in a country where we don't bust down doors in the middle of the night, where we don't scoop people up in the middle of the night, unless they're here illegally, or unless they've broken the law. Now, I don't want them just disappeared if they're an American citizen, but here's what I would like.

I would like to know that as an American citizen, I could be driving around with cash in my car, and I'm not a drug dealer, and if the police stop me, they can't just take that cash and then just say, it's ours. No, I want a hearing. I want a hearing on that. I want a jury on my peers. I want a chance to defend myself. No, you don't have that as an

American citizen. But They now want to give people who came here illegally, and especially the most violent people, they want them to have a trial. But not you. You don't get that. I want everyone to have the same opportunity. I want everyone treated with respect. I want everyone to be free of fear as much as possible.

No government can make people, can make us. society that doesn't have fear in it. Fear is part of life. But I don't want fear of the government. I don't want fear that somebody could just snuff my life out. And I want to be left alone. I mean, I want to work together as a team, but I don't want the government telling me everything I have to do.

I want to live in a place where we, each of us, come together and understand that if we were all on an island someplace, we'd have the right to choose our own way of dealing. We're shipwrecked and there's 50 of us. What would we do? We would eventually, if there's no rescue, we'd eventually set up a little society with 50 of us and we would trade with each other.

And we would just take care of things all of us together. It would be a direct democracy because it'd be small enough and we'd just talk it out. And we'd punish the people that needed to be punished. et cetera, et cetera. And if some guy came in a boat and said, you know what, I'm going to rule over you, I'm king, we would all say, no, you don't have the right to be king. What are you talking about? We know common sense tells us that if we were on that island, we would all know we have a right to put our own rulers, if you will, our own government in place.

And that government, its first job, should be to protect me as a citizen and you as a citizen and just make sure we're playing fair with one another. Do you know what I just described? Are you with that? Is that the kind of America you want to live in? Because it is the one I want to live in. I just described a country that has never ever graced the presence of the earth because people are involved. But that's what we should be striving for, that kind of situation. Let me express it this way.

I'm going to live in a country where all men are created equal, and they're endowed by their creator with certain unalienable, unchangeable rights that among them are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Nobody can come in the middle of the night and just take your life. Nobody can take your liberty and throw you in prison without a trial and the pursuit of happiness. You just want to be left alone to do what you want to do as long as you're not breaking the law. And to secure these rights, governments are instituted by men, among men. Men make it. We as individuals, like we're on that island, we vote for it.

We put it together. And what we put together, that government derives their just powers from the consent of the governed. So we have to consent to it. And they don't have just powers. They have just powers. And that if a government becomes destructive, it's the right of the people to alter or abolish it. Well, why do we keep saying, oh, you want to go back to the old time he does. days. No, I don't. I don't want to have to leave my house in the middle of night and poop,

you know, in a big hole behind my house. Don't want to do that. I don't want to go back to a time where people lived in fear because somebody was going to knock on their door or throw a rock or a brick through their window like they did with Martin Luther King and set a cross on fire. I want to live in a neighborhood where we all look alike, we all don't look alike. Nobody cares. Nobody because we, in many ways, in the most fundamental ways, we think alike. We're all trying to protect our society, which is just and governed by people we all selected. And those people, because we selected them, we select people that have the same idea of what this government and what this country should be. And this country and this government should be life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

that all men are created equal. That's what it should be. Heaven knows how to put a proper price on something so celestial as freedom and liberty. We have to pay a price for this liberty. And that price right now just means to be engaged, to be good, to take a stand on good and evil. There is good and evil, period. More in a second. Let me tell you, Israel right now is facing one of the most complex and dangerous moments in modern history. On the southern front, the war with Hamas continues to escalate. Israeli forces have launched a major ground offensive in Gaza targeting the Hamas control. Why? Because they haven't released the hostages. They're still held in tunnels.

And they want their hostages released. Now, France has come in and said, well, we can't support you. Oh, my gosh, what will Israel do without the support of the French? Look, I want you to go to IFCJ, supportifcj.org. Do that now. Supportifcj.org. This is an organization, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, that have gotten together. We don't agree on religion and the ins and outs of it, but we do agree that Jews have a right to exist. For all time, they keep telling the Jews to go home.

They went home, and now they're telling them, Get out. They have a right to exist. And I think we should support them. I don't want to fight their wars for them, but I do want to be there and let them know. I support them. I love them. I pray for them. 888-488-488-48-I-F-C-J or online, one word,

support-IFCJ.org. 10 seconds, station ID. I have a very bad feeling that we are entering a new era. And this era that we are entering is an era of rage and hatred. And really, honestly, the Democrats, the Democrats can change this. They can change this. The Democrats have to get past their disdain of Donald Trump enough to say, that their own party, what it stands for, what it's doing.

You're blind to what it's doing because you hate Donald Trump so much. At least many of us can admit when Donald Trump is wrong. We admitted when we were wrong about Donald Trump. I mean, there's no way you can't look at what Donald Trump is doing just in the Middle East with peace and say, probably if it works, probably a Nobel Peace Prize. If it works in Russia, probably a Nobel Peace Prize. If you can't admit that if it works,

it's going to be a tremendous thing for the world and stability, you're not being a fair broker. Just like I wouldn't be a fair broker, and I've said this to the president. You know, I got to see the results, but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. and if your tariffs work, well, I'll be the first to say,

you know what, I was wrong about tariffs. Why can I do that? Because we believe all of us, if you're within the sound of my voice, I hope, in that country, built on life, liberty, in the pursuit of happiness and that everybody has created equal.

We're going to have our squabbles and our disagreements, strong disagreements all the way through. But there are those who are willing to tear us apart and kill in the name of whatever their agenda is. We have to stand up against that. Oh, my goodness. Well, welcome to the program.

Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's Rough Greens. Ever notice how many dogs these days are on medication? You know, in California, they're giving dogs Prozac. I'm sorry, California, but you deserve everything that's coming your way. I mean, get out of California if you disagree with it. Because, I mean, it's just headed for trouble. But anyway.

And, you know, antidepressants for dogs, I don't think so. It's starting to sound an awful lot like human health care, treat the symptoms, ignore the cause. Here's the truth most people never think about. Your dog's food, even the premium stuff, is not designed for their health. It's designed for shelf life, bulk manufacturing, and cost. The nutrients that keep your dog healthy, most of them are destroyed in the high-heat cooking process. This is where Rough Greens comes in. a nutritional boost that you can add to your dog's existing meal. It's packed with vitamins,

probiotics, digestive enzymes, omegas, antioxidants, the kind of stuff that is almost entirely missing from regular dog food. You'll see the difference.

So I just asked you a few minutes ago, what kind of country do you want to live in? And I outlied the one that is in the Declaration of Independence, where all men are created equal and dulled by their creator and have certain inalienable rights.

That is a glorious mission statement. I can't think of one more noble, more inspiring, and better if we could ever accomplish it. Now, we could give up and say, we're never going to accomplish it, so let's not strive. And that would be the thing that we would seem to do every other time. or we can say, okay, that is what we want. How do we fix this?

Because there's chaos in the streets. And right now the judges are saying that, you know, well, you can't take these, you know, 10 million people that came here illegally and just send them home. You can't do that. They all have to have hearings. Are you kidding me? You're already four years behind. It'll be 10 years before any of these people are kicked out.

No. What's happening is the system is being used by, the radicals that want to destroy the system, they're using the system to destroy the system. And that leads you to the place where you're like, when does common sense play a role here? Now, I want you to listen carefully to me. This is the fault line of every collapsing republic. Law without common sense becomes a cage. But common sense without law becomes a mob. that's the balance our founders were trying to strike when they said a nation of laws and not of men. Or when Adam said, you know, this system needs a moral and religious constitution is wholly inadequate for anything else.

So they put it back on us. How do we solve this? It's not a government. They put it back on us. So what do we do? because right now the law is being weaponized the political system is already weaponized

our language has been weaponized it's twisted we manipulate loopholes we redefine terms until justice has become absolutely absurd and they wrap tyranny in legal process and call it procedure they turn mobs into prosecutors

and call it social justice they invert liberty into oppression and say yeah but it's legal Okay, I want you to know I'm condemning all of us. We've all played a role in this one way or another. Now, do you want to stop it and do you want to be a force for good? If so, what do we do? Well, the law is supposed to reflect the natural order. C.S. Lewis called it Tao.

Jefferson called it nature and nature's God. I don't care what you call it, but it has to be anchored in truth, not your truth, not my truth, but the truth. So the fix comes in here of the republic. The first step is we have to admit truth and demand the truth first from ourselves. That means definitions have to return. Male and female, right and wrong, good and evil. Due process.

Doesn't mean there's no grace there. well, not in man and woman, but doesn't mean there's no grace. It just means there are absolutes. Due process, it must be applied and equal protection, not selectively, not based on who you supported, not, you know, so you can use it against an enemy or you're the enemy and it's being used against you. limits on governments, real limits, not decorative limits, real limits. That is one of the biggest things I want to see from this administration is codification of the slashing of the size of this government and its scope.

The next thing that has to happen is we have to reestablish moral authority through culture, not government, through culture. courtroom is downstream, government politics, all downstream from the classroom in Hollywood and TikTok. You don't fix a corrupted legal system by passing new laws. You fix it by re-inspiring people to demand virtue again. Don't you want to live in a place where we can all get along? We're not arguing that nobody is stepping on the neck of somebody else, that you're not afraid of the president, no matter which side he's on.

This means we have to demand virtue in ourselves first. We have to become a virtuous people. And then we need accountability. So we can go in and fix the system. But we have to demand that they do it. We have to vote these clowns out when they don't. We have to be on them all the time because you can't trust any of them. We need unofficial structure.

We need citizen journalism. We need local sheriffs in states exercising constitutional sovereignty. We need a parallel economy that won't play that game to collapse the old economy and put it into the new economy that is based on everything that we've ever known. That was true. That's how we get there. Now, do we have anybody in Congress that is doing it? look at this battle now over the budget. The budget, it's really not that hard, guys.

It's really not. If this was your family, this was your budget, and you knew your children were going to be slaves to the debt you rack up, you would never do this to your own family. So why are you doing it to your country? How is it you cannot find with all the corruption, all of the waste, all of the things that both of us think are redoubt, ridiculous. You can't find enough money to cut. You can't find enough people to cut in that bloated

government. You can't go back. It was so bad and so evil that you can't go back to the spending of 2018. Because what? That's segregation? You can't go back to the spending of 2018. That's impossible for you clowns. I don't believe it. So, Now, Stu, bring me up to date on what is happening today this morning in Washington. Yes, this is your chance. Beautiful bill. Yeah, your chance to play Mike Johnson here, Glenn, for a moment. See if you can solve these problems, because I will say the criticisms are just, but also it's pretty hard to solve.

So the current House count is 220 to 213. that means you can lose four Republicans from your vote that would bring it. You'd be underwater if you lose four. So that's all you can do. So there are four different groups that are holding up the bill right now. We start with salt, the salt deduction people. This is theoretically the easiest one to solve. There's six of them, six people in that group.

The salt deduction, if you don't know, is if you're in like one of these high tax blue states, you have a chance to deduct the money that you're paying to the state government in state taxes out of your federal tax bill. Basically, it's an extra deduction for those states. You know, of course, Republicans are like, well, wait a minute. We're just incentivizing blue states to raise taxes because you get to create this deduction. Of course, if you live in the state, you're paying tax, you're paying federal taxes on money that you didn't even get.

You had to just give to the state government. So you don't understand why blue states might have a problem with it. So these are generally speaking, Republicans in states like California and New York. They want to get that deduction raise. Right now, it's a $10,000 limit for your salt deduction. They want to get it to $30 reported this morning, maybe up to $40,000. So that's the fight there. Now, the ways you can get rid of that problem is you can either try to strong-arm them

and have Donald Trump come in and kind of yell at them and say, hey, what the hell are you guys doing and try to get them to just give up on that deduction. They did, I will say, all of them ran on trying to eliminate or trying to get that deduction back. So it's a difficult thing for them to do. But you could kind of just kind of strong arm them. There's only six. So you just get a couple of them. You might be okay there.

The other thing you can do is give into their claims, right? You can just raise that deduction that will make the deficit a little bit worse. But that is what they are offering right now is to just raise this deduction to as high as $40,000. from where it is now to $10,000. Okay, that's step number one. The next group is the group that probably most people in the audience and you would fall into, Glenn, which are deficit hawks, okay? People who are saying, wait a minute, this bill sucks.

You guys didn't go far enough cutting spending. Chip Roy. Chip Roy is in this group, exactly. He's probably the main example of it, but there's 31 in this group. So think of what that means with the salt deduction group we just talked about. You can't give them this extra deduction. because there's already 31 people in this much larger group who are saying,

wait a minute, you already didn't do enough on the deficit. You can't give more. So you have those people. Now, how do you solve that group? Of course, that group, you would go and you'd say, okay, we're going to cut more, right? We're going to make sure more of these programs go away.

We're going to go after these programs and cut even more. So you're going to want to please that group. You might get those 31, but you probably lose the six from the salt group. Okay. So far, I can compromise enough to get all of them. Okay. That's good.

But I know we're not done with the groups. Right. Do you want to go through how you would do that between those two groups? Do you want to wait to the end? Yeah, just real quick, I would just say, look, I'll give you a partial bit of what you want. I might give you $15,000 instead of, you know, 10. We're going to come up a little bit, but you have to understand where the country is. But I want you to join these guys in demanding cuts.

across the board. Green New Deal. Gone. Gone. Okay. Back to 2018 spending. That's what we all should be standing for. Okay. Now we'll introduce the next one. The next one, you'll, you just mentioned the Green New Deal. Well, guess what? There's a group of Republicans who are trying to protect some of the Green New Deal slash inflation reduction act. The group size there is 14. And the reason why, you're you're saying like, well, why would Republicans be defending Joe Biden's terrible bill? And they're not defending all of it, but they are defending parts of it. No, they're defending, they're defending the parts that come into their districts. Exactly right. That's what's happening. Exactly right. For example, there's a,

and those are the ones, those would be the ones that I, as president, would use the bully pulpit and say, America, let them know, enough is enough. This is bad for America. Might be good for them, but it's bad, It was a bad bill, and we can't afford it. So that is the balancing act with that group. For example, there's a lucid is one of the car companies, the electric car companies. Yeah, yeah. They had a big, they were going to get a benefit out of the Inflation Reduction Act. They expanded their factory in Arizona.

The congressman for that area is like, hey, we've created a bunch of new jobs. This is a company that is trying to grow the economy in my community. and now we're going to change to the law. That's unfair to them and unfair to the people who got hired. It was a giant mistake made by the last administration. We're not going to continue. Mm-hmm. Yep.

Mm-hmm. And that's understandable. Like, you don't want to continue that. You can't go to. It's got to stop. It's got to stop. Again, I'm totally with you on this stuff. I'm just trying to explain how the dynamics says.

The last group are the group that they... I know, I know, I know. It made the difference when it comes, when it came to the election in 2024. The reason why Republicans have the House majority right now are because they won a bunch of moderate districts in New York and California. So there's 12 in this group, and those people are the ones saying, actually, we don't want what they were called cuts to Medicaid. They don't want to reduce the spending. We're in these moderate districts and we are on the borderline. And if we do these things, we are going to lose these seats and we're not going to be in the majority anymore.

Obviously, 2022, a major concern here. You got 12 of them there. Now, of course, these are people in direct opposition to the deficit hawks we talked about earlier. I personally would go all George Washington on those guys. And I'll explain that when we come back. Stand by. Imagine your cell phone came with a warning label. That warning label.

that warning label just said warning. Service plan. Service plan may include unintended donations to groups that oppose your faith, undermine the Constitution and teach your kids things that you probably disagree with. Sounds ridiculous until you realize that's exactly what's happening. Every month, big mobile. Those carriers, what are they doing? Every single day those carriers are taking money out of your pocket and putting it into the,

pocket of radical organizations that are trying to redefine the country from the inside out, groups that push politics that are so divisive like men can have babies, to silence speech that they don't like, support policies that have zero respect for your values and the values of the Bill of Rights and Constitution. Patriot Mobile will give you the same coverage that you're used to, but it's not going to funnel any of the money you pay, the profit that they take. They take some of their profit, and they put it to support pro-life causes, veterans, first responders, religious freedom. They stand behind the values that actually built this country. You'll still get amazing, reliable service.

You're going to get it for less amount of money, and you get your first month free, and they'll make switching super easy. It's patriotmobile.com slash beck. Or call 972 Patriot. 972 Patriot. It's patriotmobile.com slash Beck. You know, truth makes the left so mad. And right about now, they're all losing their minds. We must be doing something right.

Stick around. Back will continue right after this. Hey, I want to tell you about a powerful new film, A Faith Under Siege, Russia's Hidden War on Ukraine's Christians. This documentary uncovers the growing persecution of believers in Russian-occupied Ukraine, places that were once thriving centers of faith. Now, churches are being raided, pastors beaten and taken, and families forced underground just to worship. And here's the thing.

They've got this all on tape. The filmmakers have captured incredible footage from inside these occupied zones, burned churches and abandoned sanctuaries, eyewitnesses, telling their stories on cameras, sometimes at great personal risk. This isn't secondhand reporting. It's all right there in front of you. And the film was recently featured at the Museum of the Bible. You can watch it right now at faith underseege.com.

While you're there, the site gives you real ways you can respond. You can pray with purchase, share the stories, and take simple steps to support Christians living under persecution right now. It all starts at faith under siege.com. Faith under siege.com. This is a situation we've talked about, and we've done, we've talked about in areas all around the world. And it's important that Christians in these wars.

zones don't just get abandoned. We constantly, uh, we see this from the media and they're not going to tell these stories to you and you have to make sure that you know them. The movie's faith underseach.com. Faith underseach.com. Check out the movie now and see if it moves you. I think it will. It's faith under siege.com.

and no free mensue. You have made to negotiate, and the

T-D is there for you aid to you know, at the end of the Constitutional Convention,

George Washington said very, very little. But at the end of the Constitutional Convention,

New York, of course, was looking for more. They felt that they could squeeze more out

of the other states and get more benefits for New York because they were so powerful. And

Benjamin, they were arguing, they were at an impasse. And Benjamin Franklin just paused and looked at George Washington. And he said, gentlemen, let us raise a standard that the wise and the honest can repair. The event is in the hand of God. What he was saying was, look, let's do the right thing here, where when there's trouble, people can repair, people can run to because they know this one thing that we did was right. And trust that God will take care of everything. They, that's what you tell those Republicans. Trust God to save the Republic. All you need to do is the right thing.

And that is cut the spending or we lose the Republic. And back. I'm up at the ranch and I have to check my ammo. I do this every year when I come up to the ranch. Where are we on ammo?

And now this is from Sir John Glob's fate of empires, but it comes from history, just looking at history and all the empires as they rise and fall, how it happens.

The first stage is the age of pioneers. Tell me where these all are and where they happen. The age of pioneers, driven by vision, courage, hard work, often religious or moral conviction. Okay, Rome's Republic era, era and also the United States, the very beginning up until about 1820. The values are sacrifice, virtue, risk, and independence. The age of conquest, strength and expansion, military or economic conquests, they expand their

territory and influence, civil institutions are built, education spreads, infrastructure grows. That's the early empire of Rome. It is also 1820 to about 1900. Patriotism, law, innovation, unity. Then comes the age of commerce, wealth, and complexity. Economic strength becomes dominant. Luxury increases. Business elites rise, trade, speculation, eclipse risk-taking pioneers,

examples, Venice, the Netherlands, British Empire of the 1800s, and the United States. Starting in the early 20th century, you know, with the quote, robber barons, and all the way through World War II, after World War II, it really became the age of commerce. That leads us into the age of affluence. About 1980, leisure and decay begins. Material wealth now explodes. Government growth accelerates. Citizens grow dependent on the system. Virtue gives way to entitlement. Education becomes secular, critical of founding ideals. Example, Rome's second century AD and us, 1980s into the 2000s. The values are comfort,

consumption, and cynicism. Then the age of intellect, this is where it becomes very interesting. The age of intellect, the elite rule and fragmentation, experts and technocrats dominate. Reason replaces faith. Society becomes obsessed with process, bureaucracy, identity. identity and division. The people grow disconnected from the elites. Populous backlash begins. This is France pre-1789, Weimar, Germany, and us post-2000. The values are relativism, narcissism, hyper-educated with a moral void. Wow. Now, the sixth out of the seven stage of the fall of empires. The age of decadence, moral decline, and decline of courage. National identity collapses. Immigration without assimilation. Public debt surges. Bread and circuses replace responsibility.

Political corruption is normalized. Gender confusion. Family disintegration. Loss of fertility, drugs and hedonism dominate. This is Rome 3rd to the 5th century. and us today. Heednism, nihilism, entitlement. Now comes the age of decline and collapse, and this usually happens quickly. The age of decline and collapse, it's internal distrust,

factionalism, and scapegoating. The other thing is currency collapse and loss of external power or invasion. Well, we're there. We don't, we have an, internal distrust and factionalization and scapegoating, everybody's saying, yeah, but you, yeah, but you, yeah, but they.

You know, the one thing that I never considered up until about 2006, maybe five, four, was that there were people in our own country that despised our country. I mean, I knew there were some, but I didn't think it was as many as possible. But they've been there for a long time. Overwhelm and collapse. That's the Cloward and Pivens, strategy. And it has two distinct stages in it. And this is where we are. We're in the last stages of the republic unless we decide to turn it around. The first stage is the fast track.

We saw this in action in New York City in the 1970s. Progressives pushed massive amounts of people onto the welfare roles. The goal in reality was to crash the system and institute universal basic income. Okay? This back in the 70s. They brought New York City to its knees. It did default. It collapsed. Now, progressives never got what they really wanted, but the theory that it could be done was now proven.

It was proof of concept. And then they moved on to other ways to crash the system. Next, the motor voter law. You know who was behind that one? Clowered in Piven. Then to immigration. Now, we saw the fast track stage again, under Biden administration,

eight to 10 million illegals surged on our borders, probably more. We watched the border states hinge on collapse. We saw major cities like New York and Chicago announce anywhere from $1 billion to $12 billion diverted to address the invasion.

The funds were diverted from policing, education, housing, you name it, to house illegals. Progressives have the same access to budgets and ledgers that we do. They knew what they were doing. And the whispers of the 1970s in New York were now screaming. Now is the time right for collapse.

But then you and I happened. Millions of Americans happened. The American voter showed up. And the Trump administration now sits in the Oval Office and is trying to stop a lot of this. He's right now on Capitol Hill trying to get people to stop with the Green New Deal. Republicans, knock it off. Stop it.

stop spending because overwhelm and collapse never stopped because the second part of this is not just to collapse this economically but to collapse our trust this has been going on for a long time it's a slow process but it builds on work that has already been done in the past and it just keeps building unless somebody wishes to pull a thread and start to unravel it all it begins again with the issue of illegal immigration. Now, the left has chosen the angle of attack because it accomplishes two major progressives, progressive milestones. It not only pushes cities and states to the brink of collapse, which I think we can all agree, but it also pushes voting and elections into a new dangerous territory.

It imports a new friendly electorate while imploding the older system. Now, this is why the courts have been weaponized. I mean, they are rabid to stop these deportations. Why? Well, for the two reasons I just told you to collapse the system and collapse trust. Now, here's how it works. Listen to this. The courts are rabidly weaponized.

As soon as Donald Trump was inaugurated, the injunctions began. another one happened just a couple of days ago. The courts want more due process granted to people that are not citizens of this country and or who have been identified as members of foreign terrorist organizations like Trandiagua and MS-13. Now hang on just a second. This doesn't make any sense, does it? No, and it's not supposed to make sense.

You'll never figure this out if you're trying to solve it with a mind that's not trying to collapse the country. They know if you look at the current state of immigration, the court, with around 4 million cases in backlog, you might do a little research. Find out it already takes four years to review asylum cases. And now they want to give violent illegals more time for due process in the system. Are you kidding me? It doesn't make sense because it's not supposed to. You are supposed to lose faith in government institutions. It's supposed to overwhelm the institutions and overwhelm our bank accounts, and it's doing it.

You lose faith in government institutions. That trusts further erodes when we start looking into these courts and the judges and the activists that never seem to care about the shadow of illegal immigration. You know, here's something I would ask you to consider. If you're for, you know, hey, we've got to ask and have them do, have due process. Obama decided he could drone strike American citizens. Court said that's all good. Wait, what about the due process for an American citizen? Now, he's all right.

It's all good. Okay. How about civil asset forfeiture? That's when you're pulled over or somebody comes into your house and you have cash, and it's all legal cash, but you decided to go to the bank and take your cash out and keep your cash because you don't believe in the banking system or whatever it is, they can come in and claim civil asset forfeiture, steal your wealth and your property without due process. The government can write now red flag laws, confiscate your guns in clear

violation of the Second Amendment and without due process. Now, according to these lawyers and these judges and activists, you don't deserve due process. In these cases, you don't deserve it. They can take your property. They can take your money. They can take your guns. They can drone strike you. And you don't need due process. Word of the government is fine. But deporting violent people who are not even citizens of this country, they get a backlog of due process that in some cases will take years and years and years to process. Why are you frustrated sometimes when you read the news? Because it doesn't make any sense. And it's true. It doesn't. If you read the news like somebody who loves the country, who isn't trying to collapse the country,

or doesn't think like a 1970s radical, if you think like a 1970s radical, you're going to get it. you're going to get it. And for those who are listening to those 1970s radicals, and they think it's okay to just gun somebody down on the street because they're a United Healthcare worker, these are the same people. They say that makes sense. That doesn't make sense to me.

Where's the due process in that one? It doesn't make sense to people who can disagree with each other, can vote differently, but don't want to collapse the country. If you want to collapse the country, then everything that the radical left is doing through the Democratic Party, you know, that'll all make sense to you if that's what you want. Unfortunately, too many of our friends and neighbors are caught up in it because of Trump's arrangement syndrome or, you know, whatever it is. We have to deprogram ourselves. You notice I didn't say them. We have to deprogram ourselves.

That's why I said the man who reads nothing at all is better educated than a man who reads nothing but social media, or nothing but CNN, or nothing but the blaze. This is the time for strong thinking men and women. This is the time for them to rise up and be a part of the solution, the ones that rise up, with their virtue, rise up with their intellect, rise up with peace and love in their hearts, those are going to be the ones that fix the republic. Back in just a minute. In America, over 2,300 abortions take place every day. That's one every 37 seconds.

Most of these women, they're not monsters. They're not evil. Most of them are afraid. They're alone. They're pressured into making a decision before they even have a chance to breathe. Nobody in their family, nobody in their support circle supports them on carrying the child. Studies show that eight out of ten women who see an ultrasound choose life, eight out of ten. It's an incredible development, honestly.

Eight out of ten is an amazing number. And preborn does incredible, incredible things. They partner with all sorts of great organizations and make sure that they do everything they can to make sure life is the choice. The pregnancy clinics are around the country. They offer these free ultrasounds. They have comprehensive counseling. They have life-saving support to women who are right on the edge and desperately need a reason to find hope. Every $28 donation provides one ultrasound. More than a million babies have been saved through this work. So let's get that number a little higher. If you would have the means, would you consider a leadership gift that would save babies in a big way?

This is a tax deductible donation of like $5,000. This sponsors Preborn's entire network for 24 hours, helping to rescue 200 babies. To donate, simply dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby, any donation will help. The pound 250 keyword is baby or visit preborn.com.com slash Beck. It's preborn.com slash Beck, sponsored by Prebore. 10 seconds. Station ID. So the president is up on Capitol Hill today. and, you know, it's amazing to me how he can move nations.

He can get all of this stuff done with nations, and yet we just can't get past those damn Republicans. I mean, what do you, how would you deal with this if you were Donald Trump, Stu? There would be a lot of prayer involved, I think. That's where it's start. I think it's an interesting thing. By the way, we kind of have some of the answer to this before I go on to my spiel and that he came in today and said basically do not, he said do not F with Medicaid was a big part of his push indicating, you know, he's going to be, he's going to, you know, not looking to necessarily cut more. Also, he does not think the salt increase. This is that deduction we were talking about earlier would be a good idea. He thinks it helps Democratic governor. He had initially kind of indicated support for an increase, now saying basically no. So I think what he's –

You know, he's right on that. As far as the Democratic governors go? It helps. Yeah, you should let states that vote for these values feel all the effects of it. I agree. Feel all the effects. It's a terrible policy. And being – we lived in – we worked in New York.

You lived in New York. I lived outside the city. Like that salt donation when you're in those areas is a lot. It's significant to your life. It really is. But it is a terrible policy that incentivizes blue state governors to increase taxes because they don't, the pain of that policy does not hit their constituents. It is, you know, that is a, it's a recipe for sky high state income tax rates by blue state governor. So I disagree with the policy completely.

I think what he's going to try to do is strong arm his base, right, on the deficit and say, look, this kind of sucks for the deficit no matter what we do here. So get on board. And I think he's going to try to pull as many of that group, which was 31 as possible that way. And probably, do you think he's going to attempt to get them to drop the Green New Deal, those 13 or 16 Republicans? I mean, that's who he should be strong-arming, I think. I think he can do that, and I think he'll get some of them, honestly, because it's, you know, it always looks bad when you're like, it looks selfish, right?

You're just, it's only for my district, and that's why I'm supporting this. I think you can get some of those people. That doesn't get you near the finish line, but I think you can get some of them as well. It's going to be interesting to watch the world's greatest negotiator at work. Can he pull this off? This is Glenn Beck. Pirates getting bolder. They used to wait for nightfall.

Now they're swooping in midday flip-flops with a half-empty ice coffee, grabbing packages like they're running errands.

And so you are informed on everything you really need to know in all of the topics that you probably agree with that are important. But let me give you to some of the headlines today. Russia, Ukraine talks begin immediately. That's what Trump said after a two-hour phone number. call with Vladimir Putin. He said the conversation went very well. He said, I think it's a place that both sides will be comfortable going. He said they'll begin talking about reaching a ceasefire and ultimately agree on an end of this war.

Conditions for that will be negotiated between two parties, as it can only be, because they know the details of the negotiation that nobody else would be aware of. The tone and the spirit of the conversation were excellent. if it wasn't, I'd say so now rather than later. There's a tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth. Its potential is unlimited. Likewise, Ukraine can be great beneficiary on trade in the process of rebuilding its country. Also, he noted that the Vatican agreed to host the negotiation talks. I mean, this guy, he has done more for world peace than,

And who in your lifetime? Maybe Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was the last one that took something on, took the bull by the horns, and actually changed everything. And here's the next one. He thinks out of the box. He's doing things differently. Maybe it won't change anything.

I think it will. He said, Putin expressed interest in engaging in large-scale trade. with the United States when this catastrophic bloodbath is over. Wow. Also, he took to truth social again yesterday. He said, how much did Kamala Harris pay Bruce Springsteen for his poor performance during her campaign for president? Why did he accept that money if he's such a big fan of hers? Isn't that a major and illegal campaign contribution? What about Beyonce? How much went to Oprah and to Bono? I'm going to call for a major investigation into this matter.

Candidates are not allowed to pay for endorsements, which I think is what Kamala did under the guise of paying for entertainment. In addition, this was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially build up her sparse crowds. It's not legal. For these unpatriotic entertainers, this was just a corrupt and unlawful way to capitalize on a broken system. Thanks for your attention to this matter. Also, yesterday, Skodas handed a major victory to Trump, on the Venezuelan migrants, only one justice dissented.

Guess which one it was, too? Think dumb. Think dumb as a box of rocks. Sotomayor? Could it possibly be? Sotomayor? No, you know what? I had you aim too low. Just above that, but still in the box territory with the rocks. Katanji Brown Jackson? Yes, Kadaji Brown Jackson.

She's the only one that dissented for this. This means that Trump can send the Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans home. Now, that's good news. The IG report found the DOE office that oversees the funding to update the electric grid. What they did, the Biden administration, didn't staff it adequately. you know, the people that were involved. I don't know if they were that good. The Biden Energy Department blasted out billions of dollars

to bolster the U.S. energy grids shortly before last fall's election without adequate financial controls and staffing to properly protect taxpayers, this according to an internal investigation. I'm so sick of this. I'm so sick of this. You know, I look at the money that people give to Mercury 1 as sacred money. I don't handle the money. I don't have anything to do with it. I'm an advisor.

But I say this all the time to everybody at Mercury 1. This is sacred money. This is money people struggled to scrape together because we get it in $10, $20, and $100 donations. We don't get it in $100,000 checks. I mean, rarely does that happen. 99% is between $10 and $100. That's just people at home that want to make. make a difference. And the last thing I want is for you to have $10, you give it to something,

and then it's just squandered. When will anybody in the government start looking at our money that way? When will anybody in the government say, look, people worked hard for this money? I don't want it squandered or wasted. When is somebody going to even look and say, this is the electric grid of the United States? It goes down. We're toast. Let's not squatter this money. Let's get the... What is it going to take? Honestly, what is it going to take?

I just don't think things work at this scale. I just don't think you've got to give it back to the states. Because it just doesn't work at this scale. There's so much... There's so many opportunities for graft to happen and waste to happen. And it'll happen at the state level, too, but at least we'll be closer to fixing it. Now here's something that one state did. Of course, it's Minnesota. Minnesota yesterday, their Supreme Court, has greenlit public nudity.

Justices of the Minnesota Supreme Court ruled earlier this month in favor of a woman being topless in public spaces, even though the state laws prohibit exhibitionism. the justice reasoned, in their opinion, that the woman, a stripper, did not necessarily meet the standard for lewdness mentioned in the law. Now, this stripper had cocaine in her possession, and she joked that Catholic girls do it all the time. And yes, she happens to be a stripper by trade. And yes, this was the third time somebody reported her for indecent exposure. but none of this proves that she was showing her breasts with a sexual intent, nor do her breasts necessarily qualify as private parts. The evidence presented in the stipulated evidence trial does not prove beyond a reasonable doubt

that she engaged in conduct of a sexual nature, end quote. Oh. Okay. Okay. So, you know, there's laws against women bearing their, oppressed in public. Her lawyer said she wasn't being rude. She had no intention of that. So how can the Supreme Court judge that? Two justices, of course they came from the Kamala Harris running mate, Tim Walls. They wrote the opinion and they believed that just patting their 31-page

opinion according to the Federalist with endless equivocations, non-sequiturs and circular arguments would justify their effective legalization of stripping naked in public. And while this might seem like a small matter that might only upset a few conservative prudes, this ruling threatens to have some serious ramifications for the American constitutional order, as well as our culture at large. This is where I go again. Look, you have rights. You have rights.

But with those rights come responsibilities. When are we as people going to say, my actions do matter? it does matter what I do in public. It does matter what I the actions that I take every day. What I say in public, what I do in public. They're saying the first immediate ramification is the obvious. The Minnesota legislature explicitly prohibited

in all instances of showing one's body for sexual or lewd purposes. Yet the justice is declared. The law doesn't apply because categorizing any action, specifically lewd or sexual is all subjective. So what are they saying? There is no truth. By this logic, any law can be overturned by the court, since any word can be deemed subjective.

Yeah, I stabbed the other person, but it wasn't murder. I was just defending myself in advance. A thief could claim he took stuff from a store, not knowing that he had to pay for it. And it's just if they can convince you of that. It's amazing. When we get to the place to where we can't even know what's right or wrong, we have no idea.

And we have citizens that just don't care about everybody else. You know, look, having somebody walk around not being lewd, you know, half naked in the grocery store, store is not good for the family. It's not good for me. And it's usually people that really shouldn't be naked that are naked. I'm just saying. You know, it's like the spandex pants rule. If you have spandex pants, chances are 95% you should not be wearing spandex pants. Okay, I'm just saying, when I can see your fat dimples through your leggings or your spandex, you shouldn't be wearing them. I don't wear them because I know how bad it looks and I know I shouldn't. As a decent

American, inflict that on other people. I know I have a right to the spandex. I think I have a responsibility not to wear it. I mean, it's an important choice for the American people that you've made, Glenn, and we cherish that choice and thank you for it. You're welcome. Trying to make the place a little better one spandex leg at a time. Can I hit you with this one, This is an opinion piece in the New York Times that I think they possibly printed by mistake. I don't know. I don't know exactly how it got in there. They were writing a parody.

They were like, we should send this in. This is, it's about pornography. The headline is the delusion of porn's harmlessness. Again, in the New York Times. talking about how this effect of pornography warping effect on its culture and its consumers, this author she's describing a book, is curiously reluctant to acknowledge what seems obvious. Porn hasn't been good for us.

While her descriptions of the cultural landscape implied that the mainstreaming of hardcore porn has been a bad thing, she pulls her punches. I'm not interested in kink shaming, she writes, and I'm not remotely opposed to porn immediately after describing a 2019 study that found 38% of British women under 40 reported having experienced unwanted slapping, choking, gagging, or spitting during sex. It goes on to say, despite significant evidence that a deluge of pornography has had a negative impact on modern society, there is a curious refusal, especially in progressive circles,

to publicly admit disapproval of porn. criticizing porn goes against the norm of non-judgmentalism for people who like to consider themselves forward thinking, thoughtful, and open-minded. There's a dread of seeming prudish, boring, uncool, perhaps a hangover from the cultural takeover that she so thoroughly details in the book. More generously, there's a desire to not indict the choices of individuals, women or men who create sexual content out of need or personal desire or allow legislation to, harm those who depend on sex work to survive. You know, I got to tell you, I got to tell you, look, if you're going to do something in the privacy of your own home and you're going to sell it to somebody else, as long as you're both consenting adults, I don't think the government has a place there.

I think we have a moral responsibility to condemn it and say, that is bad for society. It's bad for people. It'd be like, look, why don't we sell kidneys? I mean, that person really needed the money. They're not going to make it without the kidney. Why do we do that? Why don't they have, hey, it's my body, my choice. Why don't they have that right, Stu?

I mean, you know, certainly libertarians have argued for a long time. They do. I guess as a nation have made a moral choice in our laws to say that. behavior shouldn't be encouraged, I guess. Because what does that lead to? I mean, I don't think it would lead to people just constantly selling their kidneys. I don't think that's what it would lead to. Probably lead to an increase of available kidneys.

And some people who are... We see this with like IVF and other, you know, these types of things, right? That's a criticism from some on the cultural right, is that it's become too much of a business. I would say that just based on the kidney markets from places like China, I would say people would sell their kidneys. I would say people would be abused in that. It's not good for society to go down that road. That's why you have to condemn this stuff because it's not good. It's not good. That doesn't mean we make a law. In some situations with pornography, absolutely we make a law,

especially when it comes to our kids. And it used to be under the counter, used to have to ask for it. You don't have to anymore. It's in our kids' hands if they're holding a phone. That stuff has got to stop. More in a minute. Let me tell you about relief factor. I have to tell you there among us, people who stand up without making any sound.
