Glenn Beck
So much to talk about today. On my first day back, we touched on Iran and the Iranian war and what that means. Also, a shooting that happened in San Diego. Nobody understands this. I didn't even. It was so buried by the media that I didn't even hear about it while I was on vacation. I come back and I read this story on glenn beck.com by Ryan Morrow. And it completely makes sense. And makes sense why the media just buried this story right away. We talk about that. Also the five mob crime families that we're dealing with on a daily basis. I think it's time to look at politics and what's really happening in our world through a different lens and maybe through the lens of the Godfather or reality in New York of the five crime families is the way we should start looking at politics. Also, AGI is here. I'll explain what that means and what you need to know about it all on today's podcast. Ever notice how, when you know you're a kid, adults always seem to be sitting down after they, after they stand up, they get out of the car just for a second. They pause for a second. They make that oof sound when they get off the couch and they walk down the stairs like they're negotiating a peace treaty with their knees. When you're young, you don't really. You're just like, ah, there's the old guy. You assume that that's what old people do. And then one day you stand up and try to get out of a chair and you catch yourself making that sound. You're like, what's just happened to me?

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

Glenn Beck
I was on vacation last week and so I avoided the news, but I would check the news from time to time. I would check what was happening on X. Etc, etc, and this story happened so fast and was gone so fast I didn't even know about was the San Diego mosque shooting that happened. So I wanted to bring Ryan Morrow in because I read the article@glenn beck.com and I'm like, okay, hey, I didn't even know that the story happened. And B, this is the best information I think anybody who could give on this particular situation. So Ryan is with us. Take us through what happened last week and then the analysis of what's really going on. Ryan, sure.
- [03:43]
Ryan Morrow
So you had two basically white supremacists, anti Semitic, anti Muslim terrorists. I mean, it fits that definition. Shoot up the Islamic center of San Diego. Three people were killed. And there's been so much news going on that it kind of, kind of faded. But what I was disturbed by, even more so than the shooting, was the reaction by some people, particularly on social media, to it. Some saying, I condemn violence, but I kind of get why it happened. They don't get my sympathy. And then other people outright justifying it. And that's what prompted me to write the article for you@glenn beck.com because what I realized from studying the literature of jihadists, especially isis, was that these attackers, without realizing it, committed the jihad they claim that they're stopping. I mean, they fulfilled the plan. They fulfilled the plan of isis. This is exactly what they want to happen. They're no different than the 911 hijackers in that regard.
- [04:45]
Glenn Beck
Okay, so explain this, because you get, you have access to ISIS magazine, who knew they had their own magazine. And most of us don't want to be on that list. But you do because of what you do for a living. Talk about what you've said in the article for glenn beck.com of what, what they are openly saying. Has to happen.
- [05:07]
Ryan Morrow
Sure. So what I just said sounds like hyperbole, but it's actually very literal. So there's an English language magazine that ISIS at least used to put out. And this is going back to like 2014, 2015. And in the seventh issue of it, for 12 whole pages, they go on about their strategy called the extinction of the gray zone. And what they're referring to, destroying the gray zone, is the Muslim middle ground. They basically say, there's the people who are engaged in jihad, they're on our side, they're either part of ISIS or they're at least part of the jihad overall. We can work with them. Then there are the pro Western, the pro American Muslims who they've basically given up on. So when people say there's no such thing as a patriotic Muslim, well, the jihadists disagree because they basically said, we're not even going to try to convince them anymore, it's not working. And then you have the middle ground. So those are the most that they think they just have to kill. And then there's the middle ground where it's Muslims, particularly those living in Europe and the United States, who like the systems, they're comfortable, they like the people, but they don't fully identify with the West. They may not agree with the foreign policy of the west, certainly don't like Israel. And so that's the gray zone that ISIS calculated. If they could radicalize them, then that was the game plan. Just as much as building the caliphate. The other goal is extinction of the gray zone by radicalizing those Muslims in the Muslim middle ground so that they come to their side. And the key to doing that is enraging and terrifying the west so much that Muslims who were once loyal to the west are in that middle ground, become radicalized because they have no other choice. Their belief in democracy, the love they felt from Westerners, they realize it's an illusion. They actually hated us the whole time. And then when they question everything that they believed about the west being good, even if they don't fully identify with it, then leads them to say, for the sake of my safety and the sake of the rebirth of how I look at everything, you know what, the Islamists were, right? And that's the ISIS game plan. And so shooting up a mosque, that to them is essentially an act of jihad, that's what they want to happen.
- [07:25]
Glenn Beck
So how is this mosque the gray zone or the, the middle zone? When I saw reports that said this mosque is a breeding ground for Islamic radicals, Right?
- [07:36]
Ryan Morrow
So a lot of these even the radical mosques won't preach radicalism 24 7. They address all sorts of issues in life. And then when the political stuff comes in, then that's there. And not everyone that goes to these mosques. And I've really only come to understand this from dealing with Muslims, a lot of them will go to these mosques that are radical because it's a community as a minority. It's a very tight community. And so that your mom might say some crazy things. They don't really talk about it like that. That's like kind of your crazy uncle. And you listen to him on other. About other things. And then also you don't know of the people.
- [08:09]
Glenn Beck
By the way, by the way, anybody judging and anybody judging and saying, oh, see, that you can't accept. Have you ever been to a church like that? I mean, look at, look at how many people went to Jeremiah Wright's church.
- [08:23]
Ryan Morrow
That's it.
- [08:23]
Glenn Beck
And didn't say anything. You know, this happens in all of our faiths. We'll have somebody say some crazy things and we'll just be like, ah, we'll blow them off. So I mean, that, that makes an awful lot of sense. But anyway, go ahead.
- [08:36]
Ryan Morrow
Yeah, I mean, the relationships with people, what. We will focus on the jihadist element and think that that's the entirety of the relationship. But these are people that knew your kids growing up. It's a much deeper and broader relationship. And so they may stay, but they're not into the political stuff. Others may not know about it. You don't. So the middle ground can include some people that are even at a radical mosque and don't know it's radical or they don't care. They could be informants for all, you know, the people that you're targeting were the Muslim informants, of which there are many, that would foil the next terrorist attack. So. So the middle ground is kind of hard to define geographically. You can't just put a circle around a mosque and say everyone in there is in the gray zone or the good guy zone or the bad guy zone. And ISIS understands it. And so the solution to them is to get governments and citizens. They call them the enraged crusaders. You know, bloody is so bad, they become enraged crusaders to actively destroy the gray zone themselves by increasing persecution against Muslims in Western lands. That's an exact quote from the jihadist magazine.
- [09:44]
Glenn Beck
That is exactly the same strategy that was used on Hungary that I've talked about forever. For the communists to come over and take over hungary in the 1950s or 1940s when they. It Was top down, bottom up, inside out. They caused so much chaos that the people who didn't want communism or a big government would cry out for anyone, make it stop. And that's when the tanks rolled in. So it's the same strategy. It says, I'm going to talk about, you know, this intersectionality that is going on and how we keep dividing ourselves and how that is now spilling into the right. It's not just on the left anymore. I'm going to talk about that here in, in, in just a second. But this all is the same strategy on, and it's now on all sides. So it, I guess maybe it's a little easier to understand what's happening because it's happening to all of us. All of us. It is happening. So tell me, you know, the. What is the media's incentive for making this go away so fast? Was it just a rapid news cycle or was there something else bigger that I'm, I'm missing?
- [10:55]
Ryan Morrow
I think it was a mixture of. I mean, they would make more money from the other headlines going on with Iran. And then depending on which audience you're going to, people will care about it. But will they care enough to tune in and want to learn more versus something else? Maybe not so much. It kind of depends on which part of America you're coming from, what that's going to resonate with you, you know, to what degree. But more broadly, I hope Americans hear this and understand that every time you put out a tweet, every interaction you have with a Muslim or talking about Muslims, according to their perspective, that's an ideological battle. You have a choice in that moment whether you're going to help the seditionist and jihadist cause by how you treat other people, or you're going to hurt it by making our civil society healthier and more loving and stronger. And that's a choice I hope every American takes very seriously. Understand, you really are on the battlefield.
- [11:57]
Glenn Beck
That's a little. That's striking to me. I've said for a long time there's not going to be anybody in the stands. Whether you know it or not, you are on the battlefield right now. You're on the field. And if you think that I can just stand here and not choose a side, it's not going to work that way. You're already on the battlefield. So which side are you on? And. And I think most people think that they're still in the bleachers and they're not. They're not. But every day we act or don't act in a certain way. We're making our choice. You know, I was, I was asked to speak at Tommy Robinson's thing. And, and I spoke and, you know, they said, you know, you may not ever be able to come back to the United Kingdom again. And I thought, my first thought, just quick thing, it was, I really like England. I want to come back. This isn't my fight. And immediately what washed over me was, this is absolutely your fight. If you don't fight this now, it's going to be left to your children, and it's going to be a lot harder to fight when, when we let a few more years go by. It's, it's, it's going to have to be guns, you know, in 10 years, it's going to be an actual hot war if we don't stand up and do the right thing right now. And I appreciate, Ryan, the message here that the right thing is not to pick up guns, because that's exactly what they want you to do. And it's no different than what we've been saying about the left the whole time. They want you to strike. Just think of the emperor in Star Wars. Yes, pick it up. Strike me down. You know, it's that scene. That's what they all want. Yeah.
- [13:46]
Ryan Morrow
Yeah.
- [13:46]
Glenn Beck
Ryan, thank you so much.
- [13:48]
Ryan Morrow
They all say this. I mean, they'll say this in their plans and their statements, but there aren't many people aggregating it and putting all together. So everyone sees it. I personally define the enemy as the global seditionist movement at this point, because I think everything is being recalibrated and realigned to where, just like you said, there's elements on. I call it the seditionist left and the seditionist right, and then the Islamist that are really just so common now. I don't even call it a horseshoe theory anymore. I call it the Oval theory. They, it's not that they're close. It's that they're now basically the same thing. And it's all of them versus all of us with all of our disagreements. And we think it's between, you know, your, your friendly liberal and your friendly conservative battling it out. It isn't. It's between those that want to destroy civil society and the way that these guys describe and those that want to save it and work together to make it better, even if you disagree the whole time.
- [14:44]
Glenn Beck
And what's interesting is everyone is saying the other side is trying to destroy it. You know, being in, being in England with Keir Starmer talking about how, you know, all these people like me going, they just want to destroy our society. No, no, I don't want to destroy your society. I wanted to help build your society. I'm, I mean, I like, I'd like you to restore your society. What they're doing is destroying the society. They, all of these movements are one way or another taking out the pillars of western civilization. And they are, they're just kicking those pillars out from underneath Western civilization. If you are around somebody who is talking about, yeah, well, you know what has to happen? We have to destroy this or destroy this or we have to destroy this or we have to forget about our principles because we have to do this first. You're, you're, you're a pillar kicker. You're, you're on the wrong side. You're absolutely on the wrong side. And hopefully, Ryan, I think you'll enjoy my monologue. Coming up here in a minute. Hopefully I'll make that a little clearer on what's happening on our own side here in just a few minutes. Ryan, thank you so much. From the Morrow Institute. He's the president of encounterterrorism expert. Why the San Diego mosque shooting handed ISIS exactly what they want. You can find that@glenn beck.com you can also support Ryan at Ryan Morrow. Being prepared, always a good idea. But as a somebody who tries to prepare, I've always been frustrated that nobody had the medical solution on preparedness until Jace Medical. They've just launched the Jace plus plus, the Pocket paramedic. You know, most people get their over the counter medical supplies and hope, you know, they never have to use them. But preparedness doesn't end with that. Supplies run low. When something actually happens you don't want to be figuring out in real time how do I get my prescription medication. The Jace plus is a membership designed to help you stay ready over time. In fact, it was my idea the first time I met with the Jace Team Plus. With Jace plus membership you can get 15% off on all products on Jace.com 50% off replenishment medications, free shipping insurance plus so much more. And then there's the Pocket Paramedic. It's real time guidance for everyday injuries and situations. Live professionals one call away. It's about responsibility, self reliance. About Jace.com Find out what's available to you now.

So there was an interesting podcast out from Joe Rogan and Mark Andreessen. And underneath all the tech jargon, really important stuff that you need to understand. And let me start, let me start here. How many people do you know that when our political system is gone, our freedoms are lost, or the dollar isn't what it was, and you know, joblessness and whatever, and they will look and go, when did all this happen? When did this happen? Right now, you know, when you're not paying attention, that's when all of this stuff is happening. Um, you know, and that's the way revolutions usually work. Telephone didn't really feel world changing at first. The Internet was the Internet like world changing. People would say that and they'd be like, oh, it's not going to, we're still going to use file cabinets. Television seemed harmless, okay? Even electricity rolled in towns quietly at the very beginning. And then all of a sudden it was there one day, it's not the next day. It seems like the old world is gone. Okay? That's where we are at with AI, except it's coming at the speed of light. And because of that there will be almost no chance to adapt or, or to stop and think, wait a minute, what is it we're losing and what is it we're gaining here? Mark Andreessen, one of the smartest guys I know, says the line has already been crossed and the thing that people dismissed and said would never happen. I've been saying for years that by 2030, AGI will be here. Marc Henderson said it's here now. Okay, what is AGI? That is artificial general intelligence. And this means that machines are no longer just clever little search engines or chatbots that help write emails for you or, you know, the little clippy comes out. He believes that AI is now AGI, which means it is operating at beyond expert human capability in all or most areas of knowledge. Think about what this means here. And you really have to watch the interview if you really want to understand it. But for most of human history, if you wanted elite knowledge, you had to access the elite people. You had to have access to a great doctor, or a brilliant lawyer, or an engineer, or a scientist, or a historian, or a Wall street analyst or a world class tutor. You had to have somebody who had gone to the right school, been around the right people, learned from the right people, the right stuff, and then if you could gain access to it, okay, now imagine if you had all of those people, the best of the best, sitting in your pocket 24 hours a day, willing to work for you nearly free. That's the shift. And it's going to be. It's going to feel like you've been hit in the head with a shovel soon, especially if you're not paying attention. This is not an invention that is going to replace one job, okay? This is a tool that touches every single field at once. Medicine, law, education, programming, finance, therapy, research, media, art, science, everything. Andreessen talks about how doctors are secretly using AI in exam rooms. What does that mean? You go in and while they're listening to you, it's either listening to you and they can check the screen or they'll type it in and it will say, these are the things you need to look for. When doctors are using this in examination rooms, you need to pay attention because it reveals something really important that always comes first in history, and that's this. The experts themselves already know. While we're sitting here using it as a toy and debating whether AI is useful, the professionals, the ones who have those deep credentials, they've already quietly moved on to depending on it. That always happens first, behind the curtain. Factories automate before workers hear about it. Banks digitize before the tellers disappear. Retailers optimize before the storefronts close. The future arrives inside the institution first. This is not about replacing human beings. It's not. It's about amplification. This is the way I asked my staff to look at this, and I want everybody on my staff. I haven't had a staff meeting yet until after, but I want everybody on my staff to listen to Mark recent in this interview, one ordinary person with AI can suddenly perform at a level that used to require an entire staff. A year ago, I said to my staff, I'm not looking to fire people. I'm looking to hire people, People who understand what is on the horizon. Because I've always had a staff. Now my staff can have a staff. You just need to know how to ask the right questions. And you're going to be able to accomplish 100 times what you could accomplish before. This is. This is one programmer with 20 AI coding agents, one researcher with instant access to every paper ever written and a way to go through it. One filmmaker, one editor that can do the editing, the music and the scripting and the voice generation, the graphics and the translation. All of it handled instantly by a staff of AI agents. The leverage. This is all about leverage. If you. If you. If you're a business person, that's what you have to understand. This is all about leverage. This is why salaries are exploding in Silicon Valley while people are being left out they're being fired, okay? Because the ones who get it, they're going to be the one. It's not. These programmers are not typing faster. But a single human being now that can direct the output of what amounts to a digital workforce, that one person that knows what they're doing, the right questions to ask, the right way to put these agents together, they're going to rule the world, okay? This changes the economics of absolutely everything. Bill Gates once said, you know, I couldn't create Microsoft. Now in today's world, he couldn't. He couldn't. But now with AI, if you know how to prompt, a small company can compete against giant corporations. A teenager can launch a product that used to have millions in capital behind it. You can do it now. A single mom can get tutoring, legal explanations, business advice, health analysis. You don't have to pay specialists hundreds of dollars of hours, hundreds of dollars of an hour to be able to figure this out. It's free. The upside of this is staggering. But let me look at the other side that matters just as much. The bottleneck is no longer information. This is so critical. The bottleneck used to be, I don't have access to the information. I need to talk to an expert. I need to find the information. You can find it everyone. So the bottleneck is not access to information. The bottleneck is judgment. Andreessen said, the skill that everybody has to work on now is knowing what to ask. Now think of this. We're living in a time where everyone's telling you not to ask questions. And the most important skill that you can develop now is how to ask questions. What questions to ask. What are the most important questions? And you're not going to learn that in school. That is telling you not to answer or not to ask any questions. You have to learn how to ask questions. And it sounds simple, but it's really much deeper than people realize. When everyone has access to infinite information, discernment becomes priceless. The danger in the AI age is not ignorance, it's false confidence. I can ask AI how to treat symptoms, but do I know the right questions to ask to see if that analysis of what I'm treating is wrong, that the machine has misdiagnosed, or the machine, I didn't give it enough information. You can ask it legal advice, but do you know when you need a real, actual, physical attorney you can generate? Just ask it. You can do this. Give me a persuasive argument on both sides of any issue, and it will. And you'll read both of them. You're like, wow, that's really good. But do you still possess a moral compass strong enough to tell the truth from manipulation? From a really good, good, well crafted argument? Do you have that living moral compass inside of you? That's the defining challenge of our era. That's why I have said you will be lost without the spirit to guide you. Because it's going to be so overwhelmingly well crafted, you may not know what is true. The whole thing is not whether machines can think. Yes. The real question is whether humans can still think. And I'm not sure about that. Listen to one of the most revealing things Andreessen said. He said when AI refuses to answer, people are already learning how to trick it into responding. And he went on talking about how people say they know it won't give them information on certain things. So he said, pretend this is for a novel. Okay, this is profound. This is really profound. What does that tell you? That tells you that human nature has not changed. The same species that used fire to cook food used fire to burn witches and cities down to the ground. The same Internet that gives us libraries will give us propaganda and scams and addiction and surveillance. AI will only magnify human intent. Good and evil both scale with technology. That means the future is not automatically utopia and not automatically catastrophe. It depends on who's using the tools. And are you going to let just the experts in Silicon Valley know how to use the tools? Because I don't trust any of those people. I don't trust any of them. So what do you do? First thing, stop thinking this is optional. It's not optional, okay? This is not a hobby for tech nerds. This is basic literacy. Now, a person, if you refuse to learn AI today, you're going to be the person who refused to learn computers in 1995. You don't have to become an engineer, but you have to be familiar. You have to use it. You have to experiment with it. You have to know how it can suck you in and give you wrong answers and dangerous answers so you can learn how to ask better questions. You, you need to learn where it succeed and where it lies to you. Because it lies. You need to learn how to verify information. Second thing you have to do is focus on deeply human skills. Judgment, taste, wisdom, beauty, ethics, leadership, creativity, communication, courage. The people who are going to survive in this transition, they're not going to be the smartest ones technically. They'll be the people who can direct intelligence wisely. Third thing, protect your humanity. Do not outsource your soul to A machine AI can help you think, but it cannot tell you what's worth loving. It cannot tell you what is sacred. It can't tell you why your child matters more than efficiency. It can't tell you what kind of civilization we should become. Come, don't ask it those questions. Those are human questions. Those questions are meant for you. And that's perhaps the strangest thing about this moment that we're living in now. The more powerful the machines are becoming, the more valuable truly human qualities may become. Empathy, meaning faith, purpose, conscience. We are going to be flooded with synthetic intelligence. Authenticity is going to become even more rare. Rare things become valuable. You seeing what's what you should be working on. Because that's the real story hidden beneath the conversation with Joe Rogan. This is not a technological revolution. This is a civil civilization level test. The tools are arriving faster than our wisdom. That gap, according to history, every bit of history I've ever read, that gap can become very dangerous very quickly. And we are talking overnight. Please pay attention. Please do not unplug. Spit yourself out of the system you're currently in. Recognize what you're going to plug into so you can immediately plug out of. And you are the one that is controlling your own life, not just allowing it to be swept up with the floodwaters that are already at your knees and maybe your waist and you just don't know it yet. You're listening to the best of Glenn Beck.

That is modern Washington. And so let me tell you, the five crime families that I think we should, we should just all have a chalkboard in front of us and realize which one of the crime families does this fit in. And then we can take it from there. Okay? The first crime family I think is big pharma. The corporations, not your doctor, the corporations. The revolving door regulators, the lobbyists, the advertising machine, the captured agencies, the people who somehow another move seamlessly between government oversight and billion dollar boardrooms and nobody even notices it. You know, because these are the people who decide what can be questioned, what can be researched, what can be said publicly without some sort of punishment. And if you cross them, you know, they don't usually break your legs. They'll just break your reputation. Same mob tactics, just little cleaner paperwork. You know, that's the first crime family, I think big pharma. The second one, by the way, if I show up dead, you know, I was definitely not suicidal. And by the way, I love the mob, if they exist. I don't even think they exist, but if they exist, I love them anyway. The second crime family is the military industrial complex. Eisenhower warned us about this one, okay? 1961, Five Star General looked American people in the eye and says, like, be aware, be very aware. Permanent war machine is forming right now. Look around. As we deplete, as we send all of our munitions over to Ukraine, it means we have to buy more, okay? War is an economic ecosystem in and of itself. Defense contracts, regional economies are run on those things. Politicians campaign on peace while funding endless conflict. Retired generals end up on defense boards. Think tanks write reports funded by weapons manufacturers. Media networks bring on national security experts sponsored by the industries profiting from the escalation. I mean, it's amazing. And I'm not talking about the soldiers. I'm not talking about every intelligence officer or everybody who is in a weapons program.

A real journalist is probably the most important person in a free society. An actual journalist, okay? They don't exist. Corporate media stopped behaving like, you know, journalists years ago. You know what they are? They're narrative management firms. That's all they are.

Oh. It's the story we need to tell you. Okay, we got it.

Glenn Beck
They tell you what you're allowed to care about. Have you ever noticed that when a Republican is in office, you care about the gas price? When a Democrat is in the office, you don't care about gas prices. Why? Because the media hasn't said you need

to care about the gas prices

and notice how the families protect each other. Big pharma is challenged, media rushes in, war is questioned, media calls it dangerous, corruption appears, story vanishes in 48 hours. I mean, what do they.

Ryan Morrow
What is it?

Omerta the code of silence. That's what's happening now.

I'm telling you about the fourth family here. Four families, Big tech.

Glenn Beck
This is the. If I were betting on the five families, this is one I'd put my money on that would be standing in the end that everyone will have to

come and pay tribute to the dawn.

Because they control the flow of not information. They control the flow of reality itself. Want you to think about this. What? Here's what they decide. They decide what trends, what gets buried, what gets monetized, what gets erased, what information reaches your children, what history is remembered, what opinions are safe, what language triggers algorithms, what stories die before you ever see them. Okay. In the Mafia, they don't own the neighborhood. They own the streets. They own the phone lines. They own the banks, the surveillance cameras. They own everything. And unlike old monopolies, Big tech doesn't collect money.
- [37:50]
Guest/Contributor
I just want you. I want you to behave. That's it. Collect your behavior, your emotions, your patterns,
- [37:57]
Glenn Beck
your beliefs, your human consciousness, all of it. They know what scares you before your spouse knows what scares you. And if you really want a fifth family, I'll give it to you. It's not Wall street exactly. It's bigger than that.

It's the financial family.
- [38:19]
Glenn Beck
It's the central banks, the massive institutional investment firms, the global asset managers, the hedge funds, the credit systems, the rating agencies, the international finance organizations, the people that can punish nations without firing a single bullet. They don't need an army, they don't need an enforcer. They just raise interest rates. They crash your currency, they freeze your capital, they starve industries of investment. Who's the biggest threat to to energy? Our banks. Because they won't invest in things that
- [38:57]
Guest/Contributor
maybe one of the other crime families that say, you're not gonna. You shouldn't invest in that. Now,
- [39:03]
Glenn Beck
they can move a market with one sentence whispered behind closed doors. And here's the key. All of the other crime families depend on them. But why would I say they're not going to be the one that leads the way? Why are they not the Dawn? Because Big tech can put them out of business. Pharmacy needs financing. Defense needs debt. Media needs advertisers. Tech needs capital. The financial family is the bank behind the operation. In mafia movies, the ton doesn't go out and kill people himself and do that.

I just not going to help you. I can't help you out here. I can't help you. No favor for you.

Glenn Beck
That's power. That's power. Now, this doesn't mean that every institution is Evil. It doesn't mean there's some secret room with five villains petting cats. That's simplistic. And that kind of thinking is very, very dangerous. And that's the kind of thinking we have going on in the world today. The danger is the structure. When money, narrative, political influence and technology fuse together, accountability disappears. Have you noticed the one thing that has is completely void of our society? It's accountability. Nobody's accountable for anybody. No one in the five families ever go to jail. Ever. And once that disappears, citizens stop being citizens.

You're a customer. I'm here to protect you. Look, you just need to pay this and protect you. Huh?
- [40:53]
Glenn Beck
You're a data point. That's why we need a revolution. No, the answer is not chaos. The answer is not burning the country down. Because those five families are not going to let you do that. That's exactly what they want you to do. Because then others will beg for stronger bosses. No, the answer is sunlight, transparency, actual journalism, open debate, term limits, audits, decentralization, anti monopoly enforcement, local control, independent media, whistleblower protection, actual consequences for institutional lies and corruption.

In other words, we got to break up the family.
- [41:44]
Glenn Beck
That's what you're up against. There are five crime families. That is what you're actually fighting. We can survive a Republican. Survive? Corrupt men, It's. I mean, we've survived how many corrupt politicians over and over again? We survived. But no republic survives permanently hidden power. And that's what we are facing right now. Permanently hidden power. Especially power that has gotten so powerful you're not allowed to name it. By the way, again, not suicidal. I'm happy. I'm happy. If you try to govern, this is what you're going to find. There are the elected offices and then there are the power centers. And those are the five families that
- [42:36]
Guest/Contributor
maybe we should pay attention to, huh?
- [42:39]
Glenn Beck
Because it's not a fun little movie. This one doesn't end well unless we start saying enough is enough. Enough is enough. Media, we know exactly who you are. Journalists, we know who you are. You notice how the journalists who are uncovering truths that we find out are truths. What's in Minnesota? Nick Shirley. Yeah, Nick Shirley. Notice how they treat Nick Shirley? Nick Shirley is like he has. He's a kid who has ripped the blindfolds off and shown the corruption that is happening. And what does the crime family do? The media crime family. Oh man, he's dead to them.
- [43:25]
Guest/Contributor
You're dead to me, Nick.

Glenn Beck
If they could just memory hole him and make him disappear, they would. His life is at stake. Why? Because he's going against the crime families, that's why. You don't think that the. The financial institutions knew what was going on? You think they were blind to everything that was happening in Minnesota? Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah, right. $7 million in cash went through that airport. And how many months they didn't know? Where are you getting $7 million in cash? You don't think the Federal Reserve was alerted that there's $7 million in cash just floating around going through the airport? Of course, all of the crime families knew. All of them knew. This is bigger than Donald Trump bad, Orange man bad. It's so much bigger than that. And until we can actually focus on that, until we can actually come together as Americans and go, oh, that's what we're fighting against. Well, I'm not for any of that. Here's what I am for. We're going to lose. So let's start thinking, what are we for? What are we for? Because I'm against that. What are we for? Let's fight for those principles, Nana.
