And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. 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, Grok4 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. 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, too hot, 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, 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, just a new, just a new chemical compound that they threw together through quantum computing. A problem they couldn't solve before. 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 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 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 in 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 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, don't just go for the, the, 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. And that is the real, that's the real problem.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, but anyway, isn't it true, Glenn, that like, I'm sure in all of your reading and studying on this, you've thought about this quite a bit, but it's like, isn't there a weird thing with an end date of human knowledge in a way where if you have people who forever grow up, learn things, understand them, progress, they're building the infrastructure of thought, you're advancing thought, you're creating things, you're understanding things, you're going forward. And then at some point.
Glenn Beck
If there's.
Stu Burguiere
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.
Glenn Beck
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? 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 Grok. Than from you. So it is the end of the expert class, which is in some ways makes me very happy. 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 have been working on it this week, in our case, 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, and then, then, and then what happens? Then what are you worth? What is. 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. Well, I can get that from GROK eventually. I'll get that from ChatGPT 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 taught that, are you? Yeah, because that's the problem.
Stu Burguiere
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 it gives you one answer, right? Because as you point out, that's an obvious problem. Because whoever's putting, you know, whoever's programming this, whoever's, you know, garbage in, garbage out, 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. 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.
Glenn Beck
There's no argument. May I say, may I tell you how it would answer you? 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?
Stu Burguiere
Yeah. It gives you. It compliments you, it glazes you before it gives you an answer that makes no sense, but it's smart enough to come up with an argument to support the thing that you want. So, like, you know, like, if you go on there and like, let's say you're a believer in some supplement, right, that has a questionable health benefit, right? If you go on there and you say, hey, my friend says, you know, you know, I don't know, tree bark won't make you cure cancer. Give me an argument. 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 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 wanna believe. A lot of times I use it as 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 arg. Some angle you haven't thought of that will help strengthen your argument or maybe change it. But that's not how I think the average person uses it.
Glenn Beck
Let me show you this. This is what we're churning out. And here's what happens when you don't know how to think anymore. And you haven't questioned, really, if you're a lawyer and you haven't questioned enough to really, absolutely understand what the law even means. I want to play something. This is from 2016. It is in the US Court of Appeals, the Ninth Circuit, and they're questioning a Child Protective Services lawyer about how her client, the social worker, could possibly think that perjury is acceptable. Now listen to this. Cut 35, please.
Unknown
Person in the shoes of your clients possibly believe that it was appropriate to use perjury and false evidence in order to impair somebody liberty interest in the continued care, 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 our 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 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, you, Honor.
Of course not. Isn't the case over then? And the case is over because Costanich is distinguishable, in my view. How in the world Costanich 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 Costanich is distinguishable, There is. Thus far, we have not been presented with any clearly established right that tells us that what our clients did, which is remove the children pursuant to a court order.
Glenn Beck
No, but what they're accused of doing.
Stu Burguiere
And what the issue is here is.
Glenn Beck
Committing perjury in a court to take away someone's children. And you just said that's obviously not.
Unknown
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 official introducing perjured testimony and false. 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 money, mind boggling.
In criminal proceedings, we know this to be true because that.
No, no criminal proceedings. This is. It's a court proceeding with a liberty interest, a fundamental liberty interest at stake.
And on the reverse side, the state.
And you're telling us that. 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.
Stu Burguiere
All this and more on the next episode of America's Worst Lawyers.
Glenn Beck
But that is the thinking now. That is what our schools are churning out. Well, that is a construct. We're here to decide if that construct even really exists, other than in paper. And look at how many times have we seen people commit perjury in front of Congress and it doesn't matter anymore. This is, 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 preparing your kids and educating them on, 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 more in just a second. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program and we really want to thank you for listening. Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust. There's, there's, there's really something unreal about the real estate agent process. Pictures can, you know, look too good to be true. Open houses can feel staged. Sometimes if agents themselves sound more like salespeople and guides, you kind of turned off with that. If you're not careful, it starts to look like a three ring circus. You want somebody genuine, you want somebody authentic, somebody who understands you, what you're looking for, you know, understands the market. Because this is your home, your family, your future. It's very possible that buying or selling a home is going to be the largest financial transaction you're ever involved in. This is why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust. We connect you with agents who have earned their way in, not through pay to play, but through performance. These are the top sellers, the people we have vetted ourselves intensely to make sure they're the right person for the job for you. We look for experience, expertise and a track record of helping people just like you. We started with the 500 best real estate agents in the country according to the Wall Street Journal. And we just found, found what they do and we just started looking for others like them. Go to realestate agents I trust.com we'd like to recommend one in your area. Real Estate Agents I Trust dot com. Now back to the podcast. Let's bring in Jason but who is our chief researcher on the program. 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. And he was the guy who was the, the main guy that was pushing for torture during the war. He, 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 talking about the kill list that, that Obama was doing? You know, every week they develop a kill list and it was like, what, what, what do you mean a kill? Who's on the kill list? 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, developing kill list. Jason, welcome to the program.
Jason
Hey, thanks, Glenn. I don't, you know, it depends on. I don't know. John Brennan has been one of the most slippery. 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 gonna get away. You're just gonna see them in a slide, you know, all of a sudden in a page where they just slip away because they can't be caught. They have to live again, you know, to be the villain in another comic book. That's kind of. John, I know.
Glenn Beck
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 shoestrings 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. The sh. They're not going to kill him. Just shoot him 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.
Jason
Yeah, it's. And as, as you point out with, with Brennan, it goes way, way back. Even before he was confirmed as CIA director, you know, he was one of, as you, as you outlined. He was one of the ones that were like right at the center of the enhanced interrogation or torture technique controversy. He, he always, you know, said, oh yeah, I was not in the enhanced interrogation techniques air quoted program. 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, where you can employ some of these. Yeah, but I mean, it goes beyond that. He. He actually, you know, he withdrew his name, you know, from being in contention to be CIA director because of this. But like any Batman villain or Bond villain decides to run again later in 2013, and he's confirmed by a massive amount. He just keeps on slipping through.
Glenn Beck
Well, how does he. Let me ask you, how did you think he gets this power? Because he just. He does keep slipping through. And. And, you know, if I remember right, it was Dianne Feinstein that actually came at him and said, you and the CIA 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 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 gonna find out who did this, and then they're gonna pay. Nobody paid 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?
Jason
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 intell. Deny, deny, deny. Later it comes out that Glenn, five CIA employees, five. Improperly accessed Senate computers, five. And then finally, after a while, like months later, he's apologizing to the Senate Intelligence Committee, you know, all but admitting this happened, but no resignations, no prosecutions. This goes on and on and on.
Glenn Beck
Hang on. And then on that same case, five 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, then he's caught, Then he admits it. He says, I'm going to take care of it. 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.
Jason
Yeah, it really is. And it's the same with the Steele dossier, you know, denying it in front of Congress. 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 it's to understand it and to understand John Brand. You understand that, you know, 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. 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. 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 in getting rid of some of these people that just linger and secretly pull strings while we're demanding justice.
Glenn Beck
So tell me what happened with the, the ica, you know, the new report out about the intelligence community assessment. What, what is this story all about?
Jason
Yeah, it's a tradecraft. It's a CIA tradecraft review and it looks.
Glenn Beck
What does that mean, a tradecraft review?
Jason
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, it pointed out and part of it, how things like the Steele dossier ended up getting included into the whole Russiagate scandal. And it looks very, very clear that 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 bullcrap. Well, it didn't. And if you, if you, 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 this kind of operation. They know exactly what they're doing, 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 Brennan was actually doing. That's what it looks like he was doing. So now we've even got, you know, the, the, you know, the intelligence community's assessment showing that this is probably what happened. With that information and with now being able to go back to people like John Durham or 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.
Glenn Beck
Which is in the middle of August, which really pisses me off. It's another thing like the, you know, the, the debt ceiling. Oh, we, you know, we've had all these years to fix it, but now we got to fix it tonight, and then it's never fixed. I mean, I'm telling you, this is. This is not going to be good. You know, this, 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 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. A big one.
Jason
Yeah, yeah. And not just him. I mean, I would go a lot further and say, who were the people that were directly underneath him? Who were his subordinates? Who were their subordinates? How many of them had knowledge of this? Because, you know, when you. 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. If we do not, then the future does not look great for what we want for this country.
Glenn Beck
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. 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 proper. 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 you're 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. 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 gonna get the truth out of this guy, because he is a. He's a Biden guy through and through. Um, but people should start going to jail on that. I'm just. I'm so sick and tired of these investigations that start to show promise, and then nothing happens. 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, thank you very much. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. All right, let me go through. Go through some of the things. First of all, Stu, what do you think of what do you think the movie Superman? Is it worth trying, or should we wait until next week?
Stu Burguiere
I mean, I have no reason to rush out and see it beforehand. I have seen a decent amount of reviews on it.
Jason
It.
Stu Burguiere
And it feels.
Glenn Beck
From regular people.
Stu Burguiere
From regular people. Not as much, I would say more of, like, more sane critics, you know, like, for example, I saw a bunch of posts yesterday from a friend of ours, Giancarlo Sopo. We haven't 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.
Glenn Beck
I mean, is that sabotage? Was somebody trying to sabotage this movie? You know, because, I mean, it was. It's. It's like they were promoting it like it was Snow White all over again.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah.
Glenn Beck
Did you not learn this lesson, Hollywood? Nobody wants to hear that from you.
Stu Burguiere
I don't know if it was. I mean, there was. It's interesting. I don't know if it was a. Some intentional thing they did. Like, you know, was it right, or.
Glenn Beck
Was it just an actor going way off script?
Stu Burguiere
And it really started with the director.
Jason
Right.
Stu Burguiere
Wasn't it James Gunn with the first segment 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 things, it would be James Gunn, who's basically canceled earlier in his career for making very offensive jokes on Twitter and lost the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, at least for a time. And you think, just, pb, 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. There was also what turned 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 justice in the human way, which apparently is not true.
Glenn Beck
Well, remember the last time they did Superman, they already had changed that. It was just truth and justice. There was no American way.
Stu Burguiere
Right. I think it's back to the American way now.
Glenn Beck
I think that'd be great.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah.
Glenn Beck
Great.
Stu Burguiere
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. 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.
Glenn Beck
Did you see F1?
Stu Burguiere
I haven't yet. Does that. Is that really good?
Glenn Beck
Oh. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.
Stu Burguiere
I really want to see it.
Glenn Beck
Oh, you know what? We should try to go see it next week together. Let's go see it in imax. Oh, yeah. It is, 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, 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. You know, Brad Pitt is completely. His character is completely likable. You'll 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. It's just really good. If you liked Ford versus Ferrari, you're love this movie. I'm really into race car movies, and I think this is the best race car movie I've ever seen. Really? It's really good. Yeah, it's really good.
Stu Burguiere
Wow.
Glenn Beck
It's really, really, really, really, really good.
Stu Burguiere
Made $120 million so far in theaters. Did much better internationally than most American releases.
Glenn Beck
180Americans are more into NASCAR than F1.
Stu Burguiere
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, I have. I have. I have less knowledge about F1 than you do about almost any sport. Like, I don't know anything about it. Like, I didn't watch the documentaries. That seems to be the real reason, though, why there's this increased.
Glenn Beck
I love the documentary.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, they're good.
Glenn Beck
Great series is really good. Yeah, really good. And you really start to understand. You're like, holy cow. And when you. When you understand these cars and how precise they are.
Jason
Yeah.
Glenn Beck
I mean, it, It's. It's really, really nuts. I'd love to go over to Le mans. Is at F1, isn't it now? Yeah, isn't it? You don't know. What am I asking?
Stu Burguiere
I really don't know.
Glenn Beck
I have no idea. Sports question about boxing or baseball.
Stu Burguiere
I won't be like you and try to make some complicated analogy involving politics and F1 right now. I won't even attempt it. I don't know anything about it. So this is a lesson for you, Glenn, Right?
Glenn Beck
Right. Yeah. Well, no, I mean, I think I've been pretty good on my analogies. I wasn't so good. Even wasn't so good. And I'm. Yeah, I've improved. It's not good, but I have improved.
Stu Burguiere
Now you've gone from like.
Glenn Beck
You know why? I. Because I don't give up. I keep trying, Stu. I'm not like you. I'm not a quitter. I keep trying.
Stu Burguiere
I mean, ask Beto o'. Rourke. Sometimes it's worth giving up, you know, Sometimes it's the right decision.
Glenn Beck
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. 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.
Unknown
1.5 billion.
Well, now that's just insane.
These talking about the world trying to pluck my eyes out.
Have you talked to Rudy yet?
Rudy was the one who told me.
Jason
That's the price. I mean, what do you want me to say? It's 1.5.
Unknown
It's just what it is. This is just. When big things move, all parties have to be mutually, you know. Well, it goes without saying somebody is incredibly miffed you made that feel.
My guys told me 150 million, tops. If I can't get that out of those walls for less than 1.5 billion, I'm Fakta. 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 deli.
I don't have 1.5. I need that 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 thing.
See, fakta, 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.
Glenn Beck
I'm right here, sir.
Unknown
Oh, I need you to find out what kind of terrorism insurance we've got on those piece towers.
Glenn Beck
Stop. This thing is. This is. I mean, look how well done that is. And that would. 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.
Stu Burguiere
And almost definitely A.I. right. I mean, I think.
Glenn Beck
Right. I thought. I thought for sure it was, yeah.
Stu Burguiere
It certainly seems like it's A.I.
Glenn Beck
Yeah.
Stu Burguiere
But again, and the point of that, if it was a little hard to understand, but basically there, you know, it's this. They're saying 919-11-11 was not real and you know, it was an inside job.
Glenn Beck
They said it was real. It was, it was because of an inside job because there was asbestos in the walls of the World Trade Center. 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. You know, let's fly buildings in and collect insurance.
Stu Burguiere
I mean, it's really like these theories. It was because he had his best. He was like so concerned about the asbestos in the wall that he killed thousands. I. It's so. I. Everyone. It's so easy to apply these terrible motivations to other people, isn't it? It's so easy to do. It's just like you just look, well.
Glenn Beck
What if they're the worst person and.
Stu Burguiere
All they want to do is kill everyone all the time? It makes every, every little part of the. To explain the world so much easier.
Glenn Beck
It really does. Except you, except you have to forget about who did blow up the World Trade Centers. You know what I mean?
Stu Burguiere
Yes, the World Trade Center.
Glenn Beck
And who was that? 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?
Stu Burguiere
You have to find a place that will actually give you the truth about it. And that's really, really hard. I know it's one of the things you're very highly concerned with right now and is one of the reasons why you're building what you're building. I mean, and 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 slop that they churn out, man, 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% being proud to be American to 36, basically. I mean, that doesn't.
Glenn Beck
Yeah, that doesn't happen just naturally. No, you don't you don't fall like that naturally. There's no way, I mean that is, that's carefully groomed. You've been carefully groomed. And, and, and it's getting to the point. Listen to this is cut. 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 gender, in equal gender rights, but then veers towards traditional values. Well, listen to what she says. What they're saying on a subject like becoming more extremists, 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 extremist. This is, this is a copy. This is, I mean this is a spokesperson for the Royal 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.
Unknown
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 everyone making sure that they're confidently recommending patients get vaccinated as a way to protect their health and their community's health.
Glenn Beck
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, it's not new. Okay, why did 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, 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, we're really sorry. We just, we didn't know this, you know, and we're gonna go put those people in jail or we're gonna, we're gonna 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? 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 toe the party line and everybody say, no, vaccines are good. I think vaccines are great. I think vaccines have saved millions of people. But I don't trust the vaccine. I don't trust the people who are making them. I'm not gonna 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, I, 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. Well, that's not gonna 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. Amazon one Medical presents painful thoughts. I've been on hold to make a doctor's appointment for 23 minutes now. The automated voice has told me 47 times that my call is very important to them.

Summary of "The Glenn Beck Program | Best of the Program | 7/11/25"
Release Date: July 11, 2025
Host/Author: Blaze Podcast Network
Duration: Approx. 45 minutes
Glenn Beck opens the episode by highlighting pressing national issues, including the recent incident involving ICE agents in California, the potential indictment of former CIA Director John Brennan for perjury and involvement in the Russia collusion narrative, and a roundup of the week's missed news. He sets the stage for an in-depth discussion on AI advancements, the Deep State, and the erosion of trust in American institutions.
Beck delves into the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence and quantum computing, emphasizing Microsoft's breakthrough in developing environmentally friendly coolants for high-speed computers.
Notable Quote:
"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. ... It stayed perfectly cool without any fans or anything."
- Glenn Beck [02:15]
He expresses both awe and concern over AI's capability to innovate beyond human comprehension, stressing the necessity for society to adapt swiftly to these changes to remain competitive and informed.
The conversation transitions to the diminishing role of traditional experts in the face of omnipresent AI systems like Grok4 and ChatGPT. Beck argues that reliance on AI for information undermines critical thinking and personal expertise.
Notable Quotes:
"It's the end of the expert class... Why go to school to learn any particular skill? ... just a fraction of the knowledge that GROK will have."
- Glenn Beck [07:46]
"You have to be taught how to think because we're churning out these... most of our problems are caused because nobody knows how to think."
- Glenn Beck [10:30]
Beck and co-host Stu Burguiere discuss the pitfalls of AI-generated answers, where users often receive responses that reinforce their existing beliefs rather than challenging them. This, they argue, leads to intellectual complacency and a lack of genuine understanding.
A significant portion of the episode focuses on former CIA Director John Brennan, portraying him as a central figure in the alleged Deep State operations undermining American democracy.
Notable Quotes:
"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, developing kill list."
- Glenn Beck [18:30]
"Understanding John Brennan, in my opinion, is understanding how the deep state operates."
- Jason [22:58]
Beck criticizes Brennan's involvement in torture programs and the creation of kill lists, suggesting that Brennan and his associates manipulate intelligence to serve clandestine agendas. The discussion touches upon the Steele dossier and recent intelligence community assessments that allegedly implicate Brennan in crafting narratives for election interference.
Beck and Jason analyze the Intelligence Community Assessment, arguing that it exposes the manipulation of intelligence to fabricate scandals like Russiagate. They claim that unverified information was disproportionately promoted, undermining the integrity of the intelligence process.
Notable Quote:
"It shows that this should not have unverified intelligence, should not have gotten as far as the President's desk... they perfected this kind of operation."
- Jason [25:45]
Beck contends that such practices erode trust in governmental institutions and facilitate the Deep State's control over political narratives.
The conversation highlights frustration over the impending statute of limitations on prosecuting figures like Brennan, expressing concern that without timely legal action, accountability remains elusive.
Notable Quote:
"The statute of limitations runs out on this guy. I think you got another chink in the armor. A big one."
- Glenn Beck [27:28]
Beck emphasizes the importance of legislative and judicial reforms to ensure that justice is served before time constraints hinder legal proceedings.
Beck shifts focus to the declining trust in American institutions, citing a poll showing a significant drop in national pride among Democrats. He links this to widespread skepticism about vaccines, attributing the distrust to perceived governmental deception and coercion.
Notable Quotes:
"It's about intel again... you can't keep stacking these things up. You just can't."
- Glenn Beck [28:53]
"They deny the very Facts that led people to go, I don't trust any of you guys anymore."
- Glenn Beck [45:01]
Beck critiques the government's handling of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, arguing that lack of transparency and accountability exacerbates public mistrust.
In a lighter segment, Beck and his co-host discuss contemporary films like "Superman" and "F1," reflecting on their cultural impact and the portrayal of American values.
Notable Quotes:
"We're talking about the President of the United States. He's not just a private citizen... I think vaccines are great."
- Glenn Beck [44:23]
While this section briefly touches upon entertainment, it reinforces the overarching theme of preserving American ideals amidst evolving societal narratives.
Beck concludes the episode by reiterating the necessity for vigilance against institutional deceit and the importance of fostering genuine patriotism and critical thinking among Americans. He calls for collective action to challenge the Deep State and restore integrity to national discourse.
