We're gonna start with treason. What is the definition of treason? And are we seeing the beginning of treason or are we just seeing a good safety tip from the Democrats? I'm not really sure we're gonna talk about that. And so much more coming up in just a second. First, let me talk to you about relief factor. It's amazing how pain can change your life without really even noticing. You know, it still looks like you, you know, to you and everybody else, you still try to do all the same things you used to, but little by little, pain start your life. You stand differently, you move differently, you cancel plans, you give shorter answers, you laugh less. You don't even realize how much of yourself you've been given up. Just get through the day. That's what frequent pain usually does. You know, I just saw a video of me. We were in the edit bay and we're watching this video of me, you know, at Cracker Barrel, we're editing this video that is coming this Wednesday and 3rd, or, sorry, this Thursday, tomorrow. And I'm walking and I'm seeing this camera from behind me and I'm walking and I'm like, my gosh, who is that old man? And it was because I was in so much pain this weekend and I didn't even realize. I mean, geez, it turns you into an old person quickly. Do everything you can to get rid of pain. And the three week quick start of relief factor has helped me so much. I can't even imagine how much pain I would be in if it wasn't for relief factor right now, 1995. Visit relieffactor.com or call 804 RELIEF. 800, the number four relief. About a million people have been tried. 70% of them take it every day because it works. And I'm one of them. 800 for relief. 800, the number for relief. Hello, Stu.
B
Glenn, how are you? Status. To see that people could see your pain as you were walking. It wasn't the aging process, but it was that people could see your pain.
A
No, I don't think they could see my pain. I think they could just. I think they just went, who is that old man? What the hell is wrong with him? Wow, he's ancient. How you doing, Glenn?
B
I'm good. I'm good. I'm, you know, it's a big day. Lots of stuff going on. I'm ready for the show. Let's do it.
A
Yeah. Okay, so let's start with Venezuela. The New York Times is now reporting that Trump has been said to authorize CIA Plans for covert action in Venezuela. Now, when I read this story, I thought to myself, didn't I read this story about three or four weeks ago? I think this is the exact story. Correct me if I'm wrong. Do you remember it? I think this is the exact story that the New York Times or somebody else came out with about four weeks ago. We have Jason here who watches, you know, this kind of stuff. Am I right in thinking that Jason.
C
Just heard this three or four weeks ago or a month ago, something like that?
A
Yeah, right. There's nothing new here. So what exactly is the New York Times doing? They're.
C
They're parroting what they were slipped from their unnamed source. Imagine that.
A
So what do you mean they were slipped from an unnamed source? What. What do you mean by that?
C
There's no way this is a leak. Like, oh, we got to get this out, because it's, like, atrocious what's happening. They were. This is approved, in my opinion.
A
This is. This is something that. This is something that you're seeing the deep state in action. Somebody wants to make sure that this is. That this is circled around. So everybody's like, oh, my gosh, what are we doing in Venezuela? What are we doing in Venezuela? We've already told you what we're doing in Venezuela. This is to secure the Western Hemisphere, to get China out of the Western Hemisphere. This has everything to do with that little training island that we told you about a year or two ago where Hamas and Hezbollah are training people in. In Venezuela, just off the coast. That's what this is about. This is to stop the infiltration of the Islamic radicals in cahoots with Maduro in Venezuela. That's what this is about. And the Chinese are an extra. Added benefit. You know, don't. Don't believe the, you know. Well, it's the drugs. I mean, if it was the drug thing, we would also be going after Mexico. I mean, not that that doesn't play a role, but it's. It's only part of the story, and we've told you that. Uh, and now, you know, Trump authorizing plans for the CIA. Yeah, we know that. You. You said that to us long ago. Now, at the same time that is happening, there was a video that was released from the Democrats. Now, these are Democrats that are currently, you know, in power. Big name Democrats. And listen to what they're telling the troops and intel officers. Listen to this. I'm Senator Alyssa Slotkin. Senator Mark Kelly. Representative Chris d'.
B
Aluisio.
A
Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander. Representative Chrissy Houlihan. Congressman Jason Crow. I was a captain in the United.
C
States Navy, former CIA officer, former navy.
A
Former paratrooper and army ranger, former intelligence officer, former Air Force. We want to speak directly to members of the military and the intelligence community who take risks each day to keep America.
B
We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now.
A
Americans trust their military, but that trust is at risk. This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens like us. You all swore an oath to protect and defend this constitution.
B
Right now, the threats to our constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from.
A
Right here at home. Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders.
B
You must refuse illegal orders. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our constitution.
C
We know this is hard and that.
A
It'S a difficult time to be a public servant.
B
But whether you're serving in the CIA.
C
The army, or Navy, the air Force.
A
Your vigilance is critical.
B
And know that we have your back.
A
Because now, more than ever, the American people need you. We need you to stand up for our laws, our constitution, and who we are as Americans. Don't give up. Don't give up.
B
Don't give up.
A
Don't give up. The ship. Hmm. So I'm looking at this, and I'm thinking, I agree 100% with everything they just said. 100%. My question is, why are they saying it? What. What illegal orders? And why now are you telling me that all of the stuff with usaid, all of the stuff that was going on with the FBI, with our intelligence community, with Russia, Russia, Russia, all of that stuff was on the up and up. They had no concern about that. When. When Barack Obama was targeting US Citizens to be droned, u. S. Citizens to be droned, they had no problem with it. And now all of a sudden, because of what, Venezuela? Now all of a sudden, they have a problem? No, I don't think so. I think this is a. This is. This is the beginning of a campaign. Um, and again, all it does is sow seeds of doubt. Not in the mind of the military, not in the mind of, well, maybe CIA, But I think CIA is off on their own territory. Anyway. This sows the seed of doubt in the mind of the average American. They're now sowing the seed, saying Donald Trump is doing something unconstitutional with our. With our military. What is it? Speak clearly. Don't say we're under pressure. Speak clearly. What exactly is he doing that is unconstitutional? That they should. That they should disobey I'd like to know what it is, because all this is doing is undermining.
B
Is it Venezuela? Like, did that, did they state, you know.
A
No, they didn't say that.
B
It's just, just generalized advice. Whatever you do, don't like it's. That seems really sketchy because we were talking about this a little bit off the air and that, like, there's a version of that that's like treasonous, right? Like you're telling the, the military to not listen to the commander in Chief. Now that's. I don't think that was the version of it that is treasonous. I think that that was worded very carefully. And as you point out, like, I don't think anyone would disagree that if there's something blatantly illegal, you shouldn't be doing it. But I guess their idea is some of these. Is it maybe Venezuela? Are they trying to encourage these people to not drone the ships? Like, what are the, what is the, what's the ask here?
A
They didn't mention. I don't know. They're just, they're just sending out. That's why this seems so unbelievably calculated to cause chaos because they're not sowing seeds in the doubt of the minds of the military. They are sowing the seeds of doubt in the mind of the US Public. This went out to everybody in the whole world. And what it is sending is a message to the whole world. Our president is so bad that we in Congress need to tell, tell the military, do not obey him. Well, can you be specific on what exactly? On what exactly? No, they, they can't be specific. If you could be specific, I would have no problem. I, if, if you came out with that message and you said, look, we just want to restate the policy of the United States, whether the President is a Republican or a Democrat. You do not have to obey the commander of chief. If he is asking for things that are unconstitutional. For instance, if he asks you to do X, Y or Z. They're not just talking about, as well as the, the military. What's intriguing to me is they're also including the CIA, who in their right mind today thinks the CIA is under control. Who in their right mind thinks the CIA is actually living within the constitutional bounds? Because I don't. Do you, do you know anybody who thinks that left or right, there's anybody within the sound of my voice think that the CIA is actually contained and, and living in its own little space, constitutionally where it should be? Does anyone actually believe that they answer to Congress? Because I don't. Do you still? Do you, Jason?
C
I think the establishment of the CIA is actually anti constitutional, to be perfectly honest. I don't think that an organization like the CIA can operate within the bounds of disclosure with, you know, letting Congress know everything that they're doing. It can't operate that way. So I think all too many times they understand that and they just do.
A
Whatever the heck they want to do, call black ops. It's all black ops stuff. And you know, look at what. Where was this message when we found out from? What was the guy who blew the whistle and went to Russia? What was his name?
B
Snowden.
C
Snowden.
A
Snowden. Where was this message with Snowden when that came out? Hey, if you're in the nsa, you're in the CIA, you can't be doing this stuff. So blow the whistle. Where was that? Where is this, Ben? This message had been when, when any of the whistleblowers have come out. Where is this with the whistleblowers that are coming out today about what the CIA has been doing, what the intelligence community has been involved in. Where was this message? This is not an honest message. That's the problem with this. This is not an honest message. This is part of color revolution. I'm convinced of it. This is just so the seeds of doubt make sure that you are positioning the President as somebody who is so radical and so unconstitutional that they have to tell the military not to obey his orders without any specifics whatsoever. That's pretty remarkable because again, I don't have a problem with saying that we're one of the only countries. You do not answer to the President of the United States. You do not answer to your general. You answer to the Constitution of the United States. That's absolutely true. So I have no problem with this message being taught. It should be taught by every single President. President, but it's not. They have seen so many abuses under their rule and now all of a sudden you get this. Where, where was this message when the President used the military as a prop behind him in the speech where it was blood red and Biden was saying, these are enemies of the state. You can't do that with the military. Where was this message from anyone? Hey, you cannot be used as a prop behind the President. You cannot do that. I didn't hear anybody saying that because they don't have a problem with it. If it's their side, they don't have a problem with it. I have a problem with it on both sides. I want the military. And I want the military. Let me separate these. I want the military to know you. We have your back. If the president, any president, is ordering you to do things that are unconstitutional, do not do them. Do not do them. Blow the whistle. And the American people should have your back. I know I will have your back. To the. To intelligence community. You better stop doing what you're doing. Because I know the American people, and I don't know if you can be stopped. But I know the American people know that you're doing things that you should not be doing, and you've been doing them under every president for God only knows how long. Stop doing it. Because if we ever get into the position where we can stop you, we will. And the American people will demand a trial for every single one of you that was breaking the Constitution. Don't care who ordered you to do it. It's your responsibility to say no. And you haven't. You haven't start saying no to any president, any boss, anybody who is telling you to violate the U.S. constitution. Don't do it. Don't do it. But I don't think that's the reason why they're saying it now.
C
And they know this because all of them are veterans of the military or the intelligence community. They know. And I've gone through these before. There's already. This is stating the obvious. This is already taught within. From the lowest enlistment ranks all the way up to the top, you know, within, you know, officer candidate school and within the military, there are procedures, if you ever have an unlawful order, how to, you know, you know, work through it and report it.
A
Stu, what do you think this is really about? What are they doing?
B
It feels like it's about politics, right? I mean, it feels like they are trying to build a case that the president is continually engaging in things that are illegal and unconstitutional. And like, when you bring up color revolution, I think it's. I mean, there's a political element to that, and I think so. They may very well be related. But if you think about, like, it might be about Venezuela, but I don't think the American people really care about that story. I mean, I don't know that that's necessarily healthy, that we don't care about it. I think there are some real questions about the process here and how all of this has gone down, but I almost feel like it's more related to something like immigration enforcement in the United States. And that's not because we've talked about the military being involved in cracking down on cities and things of that nature where we've talked about the questions around them, there are legitimate questions about how much can be done in that realm. I wonder if they're trying to set that precedent, this sort of tone, that the president is engaging in these things. And slowly, over time, you can build to not only a political answer, but, you know, maybe the McCullough Revolution angle and also the chaos in the streets angle. At some point, if you believe your president is doing unconstitutional things and forcing the military of the United States to engage in actions that are unconstitutional against the American people, you're getting a lot of people out on the streets for that one, if this thing were to be successful. So I think that might be the path. Do you buy that?
A
Yeah, I do. I just think that it is. I think the main goal here is just to undermine credibility, just undermine and tear us apart even more. Undermine credibility, sow the seeds of chaos once again. All right, let me move to another sort of misunderstanding or treason here in just a second. First, let me tell you about rough greens. If you've ever noticed how your dog will run to the window and just start barking at the neighbor's dog, and then they bark back, and then, you know, another one drone starts in, you know, two houses over. It's like there's a whole canine group text going on. Sometimes I wonder, what if they're not barking about squirrels? What if they're trading notes about the food we're feeding them, you know, because then they can team up against us. Most dog food is built for shelf life, not for actual health of the animal eating it. Its process is heated, it's stripped down, and that's where rough greens comes in. It's not a dog food. It's a nutritional boost that you add to their food. It's vitamins, minerals, probiotics, enzymes, all the live, healthy nutrients that get baked out of kibble and you just sprinkle it on and their body gets what's been missing for years. So you don't just imagine it. You actually see it in your own dog. And right now, you can get a free Jumpstart trial bag. You just cover the shipping.

From the new mayor of New York. So I've said time and time again, I believe this is a city of International law. And being a city of international law means looking to uphold international law. When did New York become a city of international law? The city of New York is a city in the United States of America, and it is only under the law of the Constitution of the United States. That's the law we abide to. What kind of thinking is this one, Stu?
B
I mean, this is worse, I think, than the video that we just saw. I mean, this is. New York City is a city inside the United States. It's not an international city. It's not a city of international law. You can be a city that thinks international law is neat and wonderful and excellent and you might like it. That does not make it a city of international law. It's a U.S. city. And if you are going around and trying to execute the international law inside of a US City, you are doing something that is blatantly against our Constitution. Right? I mean, like, that is not. Our Constitution, does not allow you to operate under international law. There are, you know, there are obviously some weird things around, you know, diplomats and the United nations being in New York City, and there's some elements there. But generally speaking, if you're saying, hey, we. I think he's trying to almost say, like, oh, we just. We. We're a. We're. We're a international city. There's lots of different people here.
A
No. What? What? I'm going to arrest Putin, and I'm gonna arrest Netanyahu if they step. Step foot in New York City.
B
You can't. Oh, that's illegal.
A
No, you can't do it. Can't do it. This is Glenn Beck. There is so much more to come. Standby blinds dot com.

Last night here in Florida, Tanya said they're SpaceX gonna launch another missile in about 15 minutes. I'm like, let's go outside and see if we can see it. And we live right on the coast. And all of a sudden, you know, we're watching it 10, 9, 8, 7, 6. And about 30, 40 seconds after the launch, we're like, ah, but we can't see it. And then all of a sudden, over the tops of the trees, we just see this flame coming up. And it was absolutely. I posted it on the Instagram last night on my Instagram page. It was absolutely one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. And I mean, from a distance. I've seen it once before. I saw the last space. Space shuttle liftoff in the middle of the night. And I was really close. I was across the water, but I was, you know, just right across from, what is it, Cape Kennedy. And I could not believe it was a wonder of the world. Three o' clock in the morning. All of a sudden it was just daylight. And now, I don't even know. Three hours away. Two, three hours away. And it was one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. It just starts coming up and then, you know, you see the rocket. The boosters detach, the first stage rockets go out, they turn blue and then they go out. And then you see there and it just picks up so much speed and just racing through the sky. It is incredible. It's incredible. If you've never seen a rocket launch, I can't wait to see his. What is the. That was a Falcon. What's the big, big heavy one he's working on? And nobody knows.
C
Falcon Heavy, isn't it?
A
Is it the Falcon Heavy? I don't, I don't know. I don't think so. I think, and I could be wrong. So let me look this up. I think that is based on starship that's it. I think it's based on the original Soviet design. The Soviets. The reason why we beat the Soviets up into space is they had this great design of, like, 24 rockets where we had, like, four big, huge ones for lift. They had, like, 24, 25 rockets at the bottom of it, but they couldn't synchronize them. You know, this is. This is when, you know, computing was really, really bad. They couldn't synchronize them, so they couldn't keep it level. And so it would take off and then it would just spiral out of control and blow up. That's the reason why we beat them into space. I saw the bottom end of one of these rockets in a video, and I think. I think it's the original Soviet design. I'm not sure, because now we have the ability to synchronize everything. But I can't wait to see that thing, because it's bigger than a Saturn rocket, bigger than the ones we put in, you know, to send to the moon.
C
At some point, I don't know, the wonder of space travel just kind of left. Maybe it was after. I don't know.
A
Like, we get bored with things.
C
It's so weird.
A
But.
C
But Elon Musk has brought it back.
A
I mean, they're just doing amazing stuff because it. Because it's like everything. We did it, we mastered it, we put people on the moon. Everybody was crazed about it. I remember sitting in class and seeing the astronauts, you know, on the moon. We'd go in and we'd. They'd bring in an old TV and they'd sit the tv before these things were even on, the little, you know, wheel, you know, AV kind of things, it was just a big old tv. And we all went into the. To the regular, you know, to the gym, and we watched it on a regular tv. Them walking around on the moon. And that must have been in the early 70s. And then after that, everybody's like, yeah, so we've been to the moon. And now nobody believes we've gone to the moon ever. Now we're going back up. And it's. I mean, it's amazing. It's amazing to watch because you just think, I just watched it last night. I'm like, my gosh, look at the power of that thing. I could hear. I'm. How far are we away? Three hours, two hours. You could hear it. You could hear it. It got to a certain place and my wife said, you can see it on the tape on Instagram. My wife at one Point says. Can you hear that? You could. You could hear the crackle of it. It's. I mean, it's incredible. Just incredible. I really want to go see a liftoff in person again. Yeah, just amazing.
B
We should, to be clear, we should excommunicate him out of our society because he wore a red hat a few times. That, I think is a smart move.
A
What a dummy.
B
Yeah, he. He's an idiot. And obviously we don't need him helping our country right now.
A
Why?
B
Because he voted for lower taxes or something? That's a good way to run a society.
A
Hate that guy. Yeah, hate that guy. Amazing dope. We have just become morons, really. We really have. History is going to look back and go, at one point, they just became morons.
B
Do you find it interesting, Glenn? He was at this dinner with the Saudi Arabian delegation. I guess Trump did a dinner and invited a bunch of VIPs to it. I thought a good sign from the perspective of the relationship between Trump and Elon Musk that he was invited and was there. Remember, they had a total falling out. It was over the Epstein files.
A
No, they made nice at Charlie Kirk's.
B
So that's, you think, totally repaired or at least somewhat repaired at this point?
A
Yeah, somewhat repaired. Yeah. I think, you know, and, you know, if you're trying to showcase the best of America, who better to have at the table than Elon Musk? I mean, he is the Tesla or the Edison of our day. There's nobody. Is there anybody in the world that everybody, with an exception of those who are just so politically, you know, I don't know, pilled that they just can't stand anybody that votes differently than them. I mean, even when he was, you know, we thought he was a real big lefty, I still wanted to meet the guy. I still wanted to be like, you know, man, I would give my right arm to sit and listen to that guy in the same room. You know what I mean? Be great. This a guy who will be remembered for hundreds of years after Jesus comes. Well, we may not have history books at that point, but he's going to be remembered for hundreds of years as one of the greatest human beings ever, when there were still human beings. So, I mean, who doesn't want to meet that guy? How is it that we have half our country now just hating on that guy? Genius. Would you be happier if he were Chinese?
B
Thank God he's here and wants to be here and wants to be in this environment. I think that you look at everything, it's going to Be a great biopic. The movie on Elon Musk's life is going to be absolutely incredible because he is a somewhat complicated figure at times. There's a lot to discuss in the Elon Musk front. But just think of the fact that this guy has put, I don't know, hundreds of thousands, millions of cars on the road right now that are capable and are driving themselves. That's like an incredible accomplishment. This is a guy who's putting cars that are, they have full self driving. You can sit in there, you can, the thing will drive itself from point A to point B without you touching really anything. And that is, think about the fact that that's just being said that even people are allowed, that governments are just like, yeah, I guess we trust this guy to let all these cars drive themselves. It's an amazing accomplishment. That's just one of many. It really is an amazing life.
A
Now let me tell you about the Epstein files. They voted, the House voted and then the Senate voted. And I don't think the President has signed it yet, but he should, he should sign it this morning. Just get done to release all of the Epstein files. And you know, it's, it's pretty amazing to me that here's, here's the worst part of this thing. As they're discussing all of the parts of the Epstein files, they decide that they are, they make a deal in the back room not to go after. We won't investigate Corey Mills. You don't investigate. What's her name that was, you know, texting.
B
Plasket.
A
Plaskett was texting with, with Epstein during the impeachment hearings. And he's saying to her, here's what you need to ask. And she's so clueless. She has no idea. She thinks RONA is an acronym, then she thinks RONA is a last name. And then she has no idea, she has no idea what she's talking about. Um, and she's just taking her marching orders from Epstein. And then when she says, you know, when they ask her about it, she's like, well, I was just conversing with a constituent. Oh, like does Nancy Pelosi, does she ask questions, you know, from another constituent of hers, you know, Charles Manson? What are you talking about, constituent? First of all, I don't think he can even vote or couldn't vote at the time. He's probably voting now, at least in, in Chicago, but when he was a convicted felon, he can't vote. Right, right. So what constituent is that?
B
I mean, I guess technically still A constituent, but I mean, not a voting one.
A
Not a voting one. Not one you should care about.
B
Also one of the most notorious criminals in our society. The fact that you take advice as to how to question someone in a congressional hearing and like, honestly, the Epstein part of it is almost secondary. The fact that she was taking this advice blindly from anyone is so embarrassing. As you point out, she didn't even know enough about what she was saying in a congressional hearing to know whether it was a name or an acronym. That is like, you shouldn't take that from your best friend. You shouldn't ask that question until you understand what the question is, let alone one of the most notorious child molesters in our nation's history. It's a, it is a legitimately incredible story. If you can't censor her for her for that, I don't think there's any line.
A
Now let me switch topics to this. Noam Chomsky. Did you read this story? Noam Chomsky, widely regarded as the founder of modern linguistics. Okay. Listen to what he said in a letter, in several letters about Epstein. He said he refers to Epstein as a regular source of stimulation. You know, if you are a guy who's known for linguistic. That's probably not the phrase. You would pick a regular source of stimulation. I met Jeffrey Epstein half a dozen a year. Half a, half a dozen years ago. We've been a regular content contact since with many long and often in depth conversations about very wide range of topics, including our own specialties and professional work, but a host of others. We have many shared interests. Probably not something you would want to put down in writing because these happened after he was known. The impact of Jeffrey's limitless curiosity, extensive knowledge and penetrating insights. Again, you don't use penetrating when you're talking about Epstein. Maybe that's just me. So you've got now Noam Chomsky, who is buddying up with him. You have Hakeem Jeffries now soliciting donations from Epstein, asked him to meet with Obama. This again is after he has been deemed a sex criminal. And you have Hakeem asking, hey, can we get some money from you? Then you also have, as we talked about a minute ago, Plaskett doing his bidding. We have Larry Summers, who is, you know, good friend of Bill Clinton, asking for advice on how to get horizontal with this woman. He was teaching a Chinese macro economist. She was tenured London School of Economics professor, Harvard graduate, daughter of a Chinese associate of President Z. And he writes to Epstein, his quote, wingman, that he was chasing this woman and delivered a. Again, you don't write this if you're writing about Epstein. A blow by blow of his pursuits of this Chinese woman. Through their correspondence, correspondent Summers and Epstein referred to the woman as Peril, never using her name. In one such exchange, Summer asked Epstein whether it was meaningful to talk about the probability of getting my getting horizontal with Peril. You are better at understanding Chinese women than at probability theory. Epstein went on to suggest the probability of Summers ending up in bed with her was zero. By the way, she was in her 40s. He was in his 70s. But she's never going to find a Larry. A Larry Summers either. People speculated online. The nickname is drawn from the Yellow Peril trope. Oh, good, good. This is a guy. By the way, I don't care what anybody does in their spare time, you know, as long as everybody is legal. But I. I mean, this is a woman who, you know, Larry Summers was with the Treasury. Not at this time, but he's high up in government. I bet he probably still had his top secret clearance at the time. He was with. With Bill Clinton all the time. And he wants to make it with this Chinese woman who is into economics and good friends and in. Not in bed, literally, but in bed with President Z of China. I don't know. I mean, I don't want to know who's sleeping with who. I don't really care. But this seems to be a problem. And the. The letters between the two, they're just disgusting. They're really disgusting. And this is a guy who's still teaching at Harvard. Hey, keep your standards really high. Harvard. I mean, way to go, Harvard. All right, let me tell you about our sponsor. It's simply safe.

So Governor Abbott in Texas issued a pretty strong proclamation designating two different groups as foreign terrorist organizations. It is really remarkable if this is not a campaign promise, if this is actually going to happen. He says the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE are now being in Texas called foreign terrorist organizations. That's great news. I want to talk to you a little bit about the burner launcher. When people think about self defense, they usually think there's only one tool, one response, one way to handle. And that's the real, real life is not really that simple. Sometimes you need lethal force, sometimes you don't. And the last thing any responsible person you know wants is to turn A bad situation into it. Just a tragedy, you know, they didn't because they didn't have any other options. That's why I'm a believer in the burner launcher. It's a non lethal, high powered launcher that uses impact projectiles and strong pepper effects to stop a threat really fast without taking a life. Life gives you real effective options in the middle ground where most people, you know, really kind of live most dangerous situations. They all happen really kind of in the middle ground. Usually the compact burner is light, easy to carry and incredibly simple to use. You don't need a special training, you don't need experience. In fact, you know, you just go out and you act. You give yourself a chance to be safe without making a permanent decision you never can take back. Legal in all 50 states. You don't need a permit anywhere. You are in America to own it it.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Well, hello America. Welcome to it. It is Wednesday on the Glenn Beck Program. Governor Abbott has done something great in Texas, something that I wish, you know, the rest of the country would do because I think it is really, really important. However, it's. It's dangerous. A little dangerous. Abbott issued a proclamation yesterday. He's designating two groups, groups as foreign terrorist organizations and transnational criminal organizations. Under the Texas penal and Texas property codes. The two organizations, the Muslim Brotherhood and cair. Both of those, he says, have made their goals very, very clear. To impose Sharia law and establish Islam's mastership of the world. They are now illegal in Texas. Are we going to enforce it? We'll see. But why does he say these things are so dangerous? And where, what is the root of the Muslim Brotherhood? Because CARE is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. Where did the Muslim Brotherhood come from? We go there in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about American financing. How often do you think I just have to make more money, more money or cut back someplace?

You know, there are, there are chapters in American history and world history that are too implied to revisit. As if silence can, you know, stand down the jagged edges of truth. But it's. It's not. Those forgotten chapters will eventually roar back and remind us that the past is not a museum. It is a map. So while we're looking at Texas saying Muslim Brotherhood and CARE are terrorist organizations, let's look at where they came from. I want to tell you about a man whose fingerprints run through some of the darkest moments of the last century and whose ideological children still walk the earth and are cause of many of the problems that we have. His name is Hajj Amin Al Husani. He is the grand, or was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, the West. They don't even know who he is. They treat him as a footnote. He's not. Because the Grand Mufti was not just a regional religious leader. He became one of the most influential collaborators with Adolf Hitler. And he built a bridge between European fascism and Middle Eastern extremism. And an architect. He was an architect of a worldview that continues to claim lives all across the globe. What you see happening with the Muslim Brotherhood what you see happening in Europe, what you see happening here in the United States. He was the architect of all of this. Now let me take you through some of this here, walk you through the story that history has tried to bury. In 1941, Al Husani sat face to face with Adolf Hitler in Berlin. He didn't come seeking peace. He didn't come pleading for the protection of his people. He came to offer help. He pledged support for the Nazi cause in exchange for a promise that the Third Reich would extend its final solution to the Jews living in the Middle East. Now this is not speculation. This isn't rumor. This is recorded, documented, corroborated history. If you want to understand where all of this hatred is coming from, you want to understand what's coming next, another Holocaust. Holocaust. You have to see where this poison jumped when it jumped from Germany at the very end, it jumped to the Middle East. Now this is a guy who urged Hitler and later Himmler to export the Holocaust to Jerusalem, Cairo, Baghdad and beyond. He broadcast speeches on Nazi radio and he told the Arab listeners, kill the Jews wherever you find them. And he wasn't just talking. He helped recruit tens of thousands of Muslims into Nazi SS divisions, including the 13th Waffen Mountain Division. These are the units that carried out massacres all across the Balkans. We have this history documented at our museum. Soon, next year, you'll be able to see the uniforms and all of the documents that we have in our museum. You'll be able to see with George AI sometime next year when we start start making all of the artifacts available online. But this was, was not a man misled by politics. This was a man intoxicated by a genocidal dream. When the Nazi war machine fell, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem did not retreat into exile. He redirected his energies. He became a driving force behind the Arab Higher Committee which rejected. See if this sounds familiar. Every peaceful compromise proposed for the region, he used Nazi frameworks, propaganda, racial conspiracy, all kinds of really sick ideology and injected them into the bloodstream of a fractured Middle East. And then came his most lasting legacy. He mentored a young relative. And this young relative, his name was Yasser Arafat. Arafat would go on to lead the plo. Now this was an organization who, whose chapter charter was in 1964, was really explicit. The destruction of Israel. No two state solution, no coexistence, elimination. This is the mufties ideology. And it flowed directly into creation of groups that made terror a political tool long before it became a global epidemic. And from that Poisoned, well sprang, Fatah, Black September, the plo, Islamic Jihad, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood. All different names, same infection. If you look at Hamas, their founding charter reads like a grotesque remix of the mufties 1930s and 1940s propaganda, complete with conspiracy theories lifted directly from the Nazi tracks, including the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. This is a document that he spread everywhere through the Middle East. This is the ideological genealogy that you'll never hear explained in polite conversation. Everybody thinks that they're just so bright and so brilliant. Yeah, you know what? Who's controlling everything? The Jews. You know, the Jews are really the ones who are really the Nazis. And it doesn't make any sense because they're under the stupid belief that Nazism died in a bunker.
B
It didn't.
A
Didn't. Some of it fled to Cairo and to Damascus and back to Jerusalem. And then it metastasized. And today the echo still shakes the walls. When you hear the terrorists chanting about the annihilation of Israel, when you see school textbooks teaching children that Jews are descended from apes and pigs, when you watch mobs in European cities chanting gas the Jews, you are looking at the shadow of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. And not because he created hatred. Hatred's ancient. He systematized it. He modernized it. He married it to the 20th century totalitarianism. He took old prejudices and gave them the machinery of modern propaganda. And he forged his links between fascism and Islamicism that still animate the organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah and the Muslim Brotherhood groups who. Whose goals are. Are not political compromise, but eradication, purification, and the crushing of the Western ideals. It's so frustrating to know history and then to hear people, especially the youth, just spout stuff off. They. They have no idea how much they are being used. And we have to invite them to because they do not know. They just do not know. Nobody is teaching this stuff. And this is not about smearing millions of peaceful Muslims. It is just about identifying the ideological architecture behind the most toxic, violent and expansionist movements on earth. And at the center of that architecture stands the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. And if we ignore this, we ignore it at our own peril. If you understand the Mufti's role, the present suddenly becomes very, very clear. Why antisemitism exploding globally? How is this happening? Why radical organizations can't accept any compromise? Why from the river to the Sea isn't a chant, it's a promise of destruction. Why every ceasefire becomes a pause, never peace. Why every concession is interpreted not as goodwill, but as weakness. This stuff didn't start last week. It didn't start on October 7th. It didn't start with the creation of Israel. The roots run back over a century ago to a man who believed the genocide of Europe should be replicated in the Middle East. And today, his ideological heirs wear masks. They hold rifles. They teach children to hate before they can read. And it's all from this guy who's not just a historic figure, the Grand Mufti. He's a cautionary tale. He's a signal flare. He's a reminder that unchallenged evil does not disappear. It regenerates. And if we want true peace, lasting peace, then we have to first learn the truth and tell the truth. Not the sanitized version of it. It not the version that keeps activists comfortable, but the virgin, the version that recognizes the path that we're walking on and where it leads if we don't change any course. That's why what Governor Abbott did yesterday is so important, because the past is still speaking, and the voice sounds hauntingly familiar. Now. I want to take you someplace else, to where the Generation X is right now. Because Generation X, Generation Z antisemitism is on the rise, but it is being sold as honest questioning. And honest questioning is really, really good. It is. But let's go through some of that here in just a second. We'll do that in 60 seconds. First, let me talk to you here just a little bit about preborn. In scripture, when Mary said, let it be done to me according to your word, she didn't have all the answers. She didn't have a map for what came next. She said yes. That yes brought life, the greatest life into the world. Today there are moms that are facing their own version of that moment. They see their baby on an ultrasound for the first time, and everything stops. Because of the generation of you. Everything stops. Preborn network of clinics that can be there in that exact moment with real support, real ultrasounds, counseling, maternity clothes, diapers, love. Almost 400,000 babies have been rescued because of that support. There are babies in their mom's wombs who need your help right now. And as the year comes to a close, your tax deductible donation can be the difference between life and death. Would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way? Your gift of $25 or $5 or $10 or $15,000? $15,000 that buys an ultrasound machine that will save countless babies in the years and years and years to come. To donate, dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby. That's pound 250, keyword baby. Or donate securely at preborn.com beck that's preborn.com beck Sponsored by Preborn. 10 seconds. Back to the show. So I've said this for a long time. Question everything. Question with boldness, even the very existence of God. And it's really important, but it's honest questioning. Honest questioning. Because asking honest questions is really, really healthy and always okay to do. If the truth is the actual motivation, the actual goal, then question all the time. But I don't think that's what's actually happening right now. Now, are people asking questions about what's going on with Israel, et cetera, et cetera, because they're truly curious? Or are they doing it because they heard, I don't know, Ilan Omar talking about it while wagging a finger? Do they actually want an answer or do they just see something about it on TikTok and then they made up their mind? Are you actually searching for the truth? Because the truth doesn't usually come on TikTok. You have to work for the truth. If you want real answers, we need a much deeper conversation and it can't be based on Hollywood storytelling. That's the laziest, most dangerous way to understand the world and reality. So let me show you what I mean. Take a Marvel movie. Good guy shows up. Yay. He's in a cape and he's a good guy. The bad guy shows up. Who? Hiss. The moral of the story is all wrapped up in two hours. Perfect black and white. It's simple, it's easy, right? But the problem is that, you know, this is. The real problems in the world are not based on make believe storytelling. What, what you're seeing in the movies is not real, but it is effective. You see, this happens sadly on both sides of the aisle right now. It's actually how the left has packed their narratives ever since the 1960s. They identify the good guys. The oppressed. Applause. And then they identify the bad guys. The oppressors. Boo his. Who manifests these two movie characters? Good guys. The colonized. Yay. The bad guys. Western colonizers. Boo his. And in a few, just a few words and a few minutes, there is this very distinct reason why again after the 1960s, that Zionism suddenly became a left wing sinism synonym for imperialism and colonization. Suddenly the Palestinian issue, out of nowhere becomes an issue of colonization. But this isn't the 1960s anymore. There's a new generation of storytellers and they are weaving Their marvelesque magic and plot lines everywhere. Take a pack, you hear? Everywhere. Now Rashida Talib to some random blue haired college activist. They're pulling the strings. They should register under Farah. Okay, all right, let's, but let's slow down here for a beat. Is this really the question that is in good faith? Is it an exploration for truth or is it something else entirely? Farah, this is the Foreign Agents Registration act, okay? And it applies if a U.S. person or a U.S. organization acts at the direction or control of a foreign principle. Advocacy, domestically funded, independent, not enough funding, direction, control, that is the test. Now here's the major point in this discussion that is conveniently being left out of the movie script. AIPAC is not unique. So if you have a problem with aipac, let's broaden this a bit. There are dozens of groups that operate exactly the same way. The Armenian National Committee of America, the Armenian assembly of America, the Cuban American national foundation, the Polish American Congress, the Irish American organizations, the Turkish American organizations. They all lobby congress, they all advocate for policies that are favorable to another country and not necessarily favorable to us. And none of them register under Farah because they're independent domestic organizations. Okay, so why is everybody just singling out a pack bias? I have no problem. If you want to stop AIPAC from doing this. Great, let's stop all of them from doing this. It's like, it's like if you say the main cause of climate change, you hate oil and gas and so you logically have issues with the auto industry. So you then single out Toyota Corollas that's the cause of everything. It's a Toyota Corolla, I'll tell you that. Those dang Toyota Corollas not only the sole purpose for climate change, but they also control the entire government. They rule Hollywood, the banks, and anything else you can blame on on a family four door. The real question isn't Toyota. The real question is an apac. The real conversation is Farah as a whole. If that's your issue, its scope, its enforcement and the gray areas where foreign governments hire US firms that do register. But blaming one organization, this is where it all falls apart. That's the laziest of the lazy ways to shirt search for truth. I mean, and it's honestly, it's Elon Omar stupid. So let's talk about US aid to Israel. I am hearing all over the place, why are we giving billions? Okay, good question. Honestly, here's the reality. Baseline aid. 3.3 billion a year in military assistance, missile defense, another 500 million. That's 16% of Israel's annual military budget. Big numbers. And let's discuss that. But part of the discussion has to be, is it strategic? Is it in any way in our national interest? Are we getting anything in return? And what does it look like from other nations? Are we giving the same kind of money or the same kind of a. Anywhere else? And is that strategic? I mean, we have to, we have to broaden this. The problem is, is when you're just narrowing it down to one country, if you have this problem with one country, it's many countries that you actually have a problem with or the system here in America, that's what we should be talking about. Every November, we stop and remember one of the darkest nights in human history. Kristallnacht, November 9, 1938. Synagogues all across Germany were burned. Jewish businesses were smashed. Homes were raided, Families were attacked. And all of it happened out in the open with ordinary citizens joining in and nobody standing up to say, hey, guys, this is wrong. It was a lack of outrage that night that just didn't reflect the evil of the moment. It empowered what came next. Hitler saw a world that would not speak up for the Jewish people, and so he acted accordingly. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has made it their mission to ensure that silence never happens again. These are Christians standing up. They bring Christians and Jews together to provide support, protection, and hope, especially for the most vulnerable Jewish communities around the world. And in a time when anti Semitism is rising again, the Jewish people are being targeted in streets and schools and even their homeland. The call to speak of up and to stand up is more important now than ever before. If you will, if this interests you, does me rush your gift. Call 888-488-IFCJ 888-488-4325 or give glennforthefellowship.org that's Glennfor the fellowship. Do. Foreign. From here. I mean, I'm talking about the week, but I would include the show in that as well. It's Wednesday, so welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We have an exclusive announcement from the governor of Texas. We just got word they're going to be making an announcement here in about a half hour or so. We're going to have that for you in just a few minutes. Soon as it's, as soon as it arrives, we'll have it for you. But it's in regard to what we're, we're talking about here this, this hour, about the state of Texas finally getting serious about the Muslim Brotherhood and also care. And I wish all states would do this, but it's. It's way past time that we got serious about these two organizations.
C
Glenn, can I interrupt you for just one second?
A
Sure.
C
Because this is amazing. I was listening to what you were talking about with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and going into Nazi Germany. And I was just messing around with one of the things that we're developing for the Torch. And I was plugging all this into Glenn AI and it was amazing. You actually did a huge special on this several years ago where you went even further in depth on the Grand Mufti of Israel. I mean, it's insane. One of the things that stuck out to me was one of the big propaganda arms of Hitler and the Nazis was the Grand Mufti directed back towards the Middle Eastern world, putting all of this anti Jew ideology over in there. And you know how he did it.
A
If I remember any. Broadcasted from Berlin.
C
Yes, Radio. You actually had a picture of the radio tower. It was ginormous. And he was directing all of this. It was one of the main propaganda methods.
B
Methods used.
C
And the Grand Movie of Jerusalem was the head of it.
A
Who was the name of the special? Do you know of the. Of all of this stuff?
C
Oh, it was Armies of Armageddon.
A
I should remember the special. So good.
C
But I mean. And you again, double down even on some of the details on this. Guess who was one of the main listeners of this propaganda as a young child?
A
I don't remember.
C
He would soon be crowned the Ayatollah.
A
Oh my gosh. 1979.
C
1979 in Iraq. So he goes to Iran based off of all of this ideology. That ideology is still alive and going crazy in Iran.
A
Right. That's what Iran is all about.
C
And the origins are from this grand move to Jerusalem and a Nazi propaganda and hit.
A
Crazy. Just nuts. Crazy. Absolutely crazy how people don't understand how this has all come together. By the way, what he's talking about is we have George AI. George is the librarian for our history library. Internally, we have Glenn AI. And eventually both of these will be available to everybody. First it'll be to subscribers only. Just because we can only have a certain amount of people. Just because the compute power is so difficult and so expensive. But Glenn AI is monitoring everything that I say. It has my entire library, every book, every special, everything I've ever said has the Entire Library of 30 years of broadcast and will bring up things if I'm wrong, inconsistent. It will show up to Jason and say, actually he said this five years ago that that doesn't seem to match. Why did he change his mind? Or whatever. And it will bring up everything that we're talking so we can go more in depth. And on Torch, there is going to be something@glenn beck.com Starting in January, the show behind the show. So there are going to be two shows running at the same time. And so when the network goes into commercial break on the Torch, it will go over to Glenn AI and Jason, who is going to be bringing further light and knowledge, if you will, to all of the things that we're talking about. And he'll give the historic context, he'll correct things, and then if he has to correct them with me on air, too, on the regular show. But also we'll be doing, like, what would you be doing a special on today? We would have Glenn AI do a podcast today. On what based on today's show. Do you know you could.
C
Yeah, you could do a quick little podcast that we can generate. Eventually the audience could generate on their own, just based off of, let's say, what's going on in Texas right now with the designation of the Muslim Brotherhood. And care, I've got warning lights on this tool right now that are just about to blow my computer up with all these different details about where the Grand Mufti went after he fled Germany, afterwards, words going to Egypt, meeting up with the Muslim Brotherhood and their creator, Hassan Al Banna. You've spoken about all of this. It's all right here.
A
And Will, could you also do everything we've spoken about on what's happening in Texas to give you the understanding of why it's so important in Texas?
C
You could put all of that together, blend it together. You could even create a chalkboard, which I have generating up right now, where you could put all this stuff. It's insane.
A
It's really insane. What, what, what our new AI system is going to be able to do. It'll be able to give you such a deeper understanding of everything. And I've said this before, the Torch is broadcast is broad, okay? So we talk about a hundred different things, and we make sure that we cover all the news that everybody wants to know that's broadcast. That's this radio broadcast. The Torch will take everything that is narrow. You want to learn more about it, and you'll eventually be able to ask it yourself. Glenn mentioned this. I want to go really deep on that. I want to deep dive. I want to understand this. And that will be very narrow, but very, very deep. So if you really want to learn something, you know, we talk about the Constitution all the here all day long. But have you ever read the Constitution? Have you ever taken a class on the Constitution? I haven't. I mean, I've read the Constitution, but I've never taken a class on it. Do you know what civics is? Do you know what that really means? That, you know, what did the founders. The Federalist Papers. What are. What are. What's in the Federalist Papers? How does it apply today? On certain things, you'll be able to take deep dives into all of these things. Anything on the radio show, you'll be able to take a deep dive. George Soros, is he connected to any of this stuff? Yeah. And based on the 30 years of. Of broadcast and books and every speech I've ever given, everything else all vetted and made sure that it's actually accurate, it's all now in Glenn AI. So you'll be able to ask it. I need to understand this. And we'll produce it for you, and you'll be able to have access to all of those things. It's really a remarkable tool unlike anything else. It's all proprietary technology based on proprietary libraries. It's not going out and searching, so it can't hallucinate. It has to memorize all of these things. And that's where hallucination becomes the problem. It memorizes everything that we've ever done, everything the founders did that we have put in. And these libraries will continue to grow day after day and get stronger and stronger and stronger. And you'll be able to use them as a teaching tool for you, your family, your kids, whomever, and you can create anything from, you know, things that you can read to podcasts that you want to listen to. We at first have to create them for you because of the compute, but we ask you to tell us what is it you want to learn? What is it that you don't understand? What is it that you would like a deep dive on? Whether that is anything based on our history or anything based on the world today. Please just write to us at torch or thetorchlenbeck.com just send us an email. Tell us what you want to learn. Tell us where you want deep dives, what you think you really need to understand, what you want to teach your kids. If you want to teach it to your kids, tell us. I'd like a lesson plan on this for my kids. And we will create a lesson plan for your kids. You want your kids to understand the Bill of Rights. Tell us. You know, I. My kids are 8 to 14 years old and I want a lesson plan that I can take and teach my kids. And we'll give you that lesson plan and it'll give you all of the footnotes so you know exactly where these things are and you'll be able to look for them. Tell us if you want it in their language or if you want it in your kids language. You know, it's really hard to understand the founders sometimes, especially if you're younger, but we can translate that into your kid's language and then provide you all of the documentation that shows it in their language. I can't wait to show you. In a couple of weeks, I did an interview with George Washington. It's freaky. Absolutely free. Have you seen it yet, Jason?
C
Yeah, it's insane.
A
It's freaky. And in it, I'm sitting across the table from him now. This is something that it takes so much computer. It's just too expensive to create right now. We've created one just to show you what's coming. But I'm sitting across the table and I am talking to an AI George Washington. And he's dressed like today, but he looks like George Washington and he looks absolutely real. And I said to him, okay, so we fed in the problems of everything that's going on today. Tell me, where have we gone wrong? What are the things that we're missing and where should we start to rebuild? And he starts in. And at first he's just giving stuff, you know, in 1700s talk. And I'm like, okay, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. To say, tell me this in today's language. And he actually argues with me for a second. He's like, I have 74 points all lined out in our Federalist Papers and in many of our writings in the scriptures, et cetera, et cetera. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, right. Just tell it to me in today's language. And he does. And it is so compelling, so compelling. And it's all footnoted. So you could go back and look at it and read it and go, oh, that's what he was talking about. Here it is in their language back then. It's this document. It's incredible. Nobody has ever done this before. I want to tell you that what I'm explaining to you is not going to be able to be accessed fully when we launch in January. Some of this stuff we are going to have to create for you just because we have to narrow it down on compute time and you just tell us what is it you want to learn. We'll teach anything to you and your family. Just tell us what you want to learn. And it's. It's going to be a room, you know, the 250th anniversary. We wanted to launch this for the 250th anniversary of the nation and on my 49th year of broadcast, but my. Because my 50th is coming up in 2027, and we are going to change not only the way history is taught, but also the way broadcast is being done. This kind of broadcast and podcasting, we think that we have a code here that unlocks an entirely new world of understanding and education. So we'll ask you to join us at Torch, and we'll do that in January. But if you want to find out more about it, just sign up from our daily email newsletter. You'll be the first to know about when you can sign up, when you can get involved in it. You can do it now@glenn beck.com glenn beck.com do it now. Do we have the message from. From Abbott. Here is the statement from Governor Abbott, exclusive to our program. He'll be releasing this later this morning. It has come to my attention that certain entities in Texas, including in Collin and Dallas counties, may be masquerading as legal courts, staffed with judges issuing orders that purportedly carry the authority to bind individuals to Islamic codes there, thereby preempting state and federal laws. This is amazing. Do you remember the story, Stu? Do you remember when I did the interview? Do you remember this? In Irving, which is where he's talking about? In Irving, Texas, the town where our studios are in, I had two imams, and I interviewed them, and I knew Sharia was part of their plan, but they were never going to give it up. And. And I just did this really kind and gentle. And when you just. When you're friendly, it's amazing how people talk.
C
It was outside.
A
It was outside. It was very pleasant. And I'm like, so tell me about Sharia law. And. And one of them eventually says, you know, well, I mean, we all agree that, you know, if you. If you break the law, you know, if you steal, your hand should be cut off. And I'm like, wow. And you saw the other imam, the older imam, getting. Get very uncomfortable. And he was like, uh, well, I mean, you know, but the other imam was just speaking out. Sharia courts, it's all coming. And it was pretty telling. Well, now it's here. So the governor goes on in this exclusive statement to the Glenn beck program. The U.S. constitution's religious protections provide no authority for religious courts to skirt state and federal laws simply by donning robes and pronouncing positions inconsistent with western civilization. I urge you, therefore, to investigate efforts by entities purporting to illegally enforce Sharia law in Texas. Legal disputes in Texas must be decided based on American law rooted in the fundamental principles of American due process, not according to Sharia law dispensed in modern day star chambers. Wow. Wow. So this is going to require cooperation between DPS and the office of the Attorney General. The letter is going to be sent out later today, but this is an exclusive report from the governor. And I applaud Governor Abbott for actually doing this. Now let's see if we have teeth in this. And they actually follow up. So this is not just an election stunt, but this is actually a dictate and, and where our government in Texas is going. And I urge other states to do exactly the same. All right.

One of the most surprising things about owning a home is how vulnerable your title is without you even realizing it. You can lock your doors, you can install cameras, you can set up alarms, but none of that protects the document. That actually proves that you own the house. And that's kind of an important thing in the digital age. The rise of things like AI. The document is easier for criminals to get to than ever before. And home title fraud isn't some theoretical problem that's just kind of hanging out there. It happens when someone forges your name onto a title and transfers ownership of your home on paper to them. And then they can use the collateral of owning that title to take out loans that you never took out. And of course they're going to think you're the problem here. You're going to be the one trying to unwind all of this legal nightmare. Home title lock works in the background the same way identity monitoring protects your credit. They are constantly scanning your title for any sign of tampering or transfers or suspicious activity. And they alert you immediately if something looks off. AI is changing the way we do everything. Don't let it change the name on your home screen title though. Go to home title lock.com hometitle lock.com use the promo code Glenn. It's hometitle lock.com the promo code is Glenn.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. In one of the one of the best examples of a tweet not aging well, it has to be from Olivia Newsy, who is. She is a reporter who has been sleeping around with several politicians that she's been covering. And in 20, in 2015, she wrote a tweet that says, says, why does Hollywood think female reporters sleep with their sources? Why can't they get women journalists right?

Okay, Glenn. The saga of Olivia Nutzee. This is, this is a great story, a fun story and a story that I swear to you has a point. It's important to understand that at the beginning because you might think this is just salacious nonsense and you're just dancing on the tragedies of.
A
I think we covered this yesterday. I think we covered this yesterday. There's enough going on in the world that is just, you know, it'll curdle milk. You know, you read a story and you're like, oh. And you watch the milk in your coffee just curdle all of a sudden because you're just saying, I think the world is coming to an end and it curdles and you got lumps in your coffee. This is, I think there's time once in a while just for just fun, satisfying stories. And this one is that, yes.
B
And I will begin the story at the very, very Start. Glenn and I will start it with a question for you. And this is a question that I think sets the scene for the entire journey we're about to go on.
A
Olivia Knutson, journalist, My boots on. Let's go.
B
Let's do it. She starts her career, very first job. She volunteers as an intern for what campaign? Volunteers as an intern for what campaign?
A
Just. It just has to be Bill Clinton.
B
It's a good guess, however, timing wise.
A
Oh, Anthony. Anthony Weiner.
B
Anthony Weiner is the answer. She volunteers for the failed mayoral campaign of Anthony Weiner. So this is how this wiener starts.
A
So she starts covering wieners.
B
Yes, she starts covering wieners. And the whole story is her doing more of that. We'll get into that as we go. So she starts with the wiener campaign and you know, this is a disaster. It's a kind of a legendary catastrophe. They have a documentary going on. We talked about that at the time. You know, totally. The whole thing flames apart. That.
A
By the way. By the way, I'm just sitting here thinking, I don't think I was technically wrong when I said it was a Clinton campaign.
B
Because remember, that's true.
A
Hillary Clinton is all over the wiener.
B
But that. Please don't say it like that. But yes, that is.
A
Yeah, because if I say it like that, it leads you to believe and that is absolutely not true. I don't think she's ever been.
B
I just don't. I think. Yes, because if you remember, Uma Abedin at this time is married to Anthony Weiner.
A
Can you use air quotes?
B
Yes, air quotes all over the place. On her wonderful path to marry a Soros. She's at that time married to Weiner and she's helping out Hillary Clinton as her like, you know, top dog main assistant. Okay, so that's all going. That's what was just. That's the first thing. It's got almost nothing to do with the story.
A
Did you use air quotes for assistant there as well?
B
I did not. I did not. So how does Olivia Nuzzi get into our lives? She goes from the wiener campaign and leaves and writes basically a tell all scandal log of what was going on during the Weiner campaign. Basically, this thing was a catastrophe. She tells the inside story and releases it to the Daily News, who prints this column from, at this point, a 20 year old aspiring journalist. And she's pretty, she's glamorous, she's kind of like the New York elite journalist that you'd exactly picture in this situation. So she gets this and turns that one column into a Job while she's still in college. She's at Fordham. She's still at college. She turns that one column. Fordham. Fordham. Of course. I thought you'd like that detail.
A
Multiple reasons my daughter went to Fordham. They actually. They actually had the balls to. They held rallies against me on the Fordham campus, and then they had the balls to come and ask my wife and I to come in to meet with a dean because they wanted to know if we would help them build a library. There were words that started with F that were not fruit.
B
Yeah.
A
As we left that meeting, was it Fordham?
B
That was the F word. Fordham you. Fordham.
A
No.
B
No. Okay.
A
Fordham you. Yeah, that's the university. That's what I mean. Fordham University. Fordham you. Anyway, go ahead. Okay.
B
So she gets hired from that one column as one of the main presidential campaign correspondence for the Daily Beast, which tells you, yet again, something about the standards at the Daily Beast when it comes to journalism, which are exactly zero. They have higher standards at Fordham.
A
So those are pretty low.
B
And those are low. She's going to cover the Chris Christie campaign, the Rand Paul campaign, and some of the people. Early bubbling beginnings of the Donald Trump campaign. This is back in 2014. Fifteen in there in 2015, as you note, as she's in this job, she does do that tweet about House of Cards and how women should not, or Hollywood should not mis. Portray the journalists that are females because they're always saying that they sleep with their sources, and that's a terrible thing for them to do. So they point that out, which is an amazing thing for multiple reasons. Glenn. Because. Well, I'll get into that here in a second. So.
A
Yeah, okay.
B
So she does that. She then gets named by Politico one of the 16 breakout media stars of the presidential election. This is November 2016. She then, in February 2017, parlays that into a job as the Washington correspondent of New York magazine. She's 24 years old. 24 years old. Washington correspondent at New York magazine. You say, wow, that's a prestigious position. Who held it before? Before her? No one. They literally create this job for her, which is incredible. I guess she's 24 years old.
A
It's not probably the only position created for her.
B
She may have several that she's documented in a book or two that we could go over later. Okay, so. And you wonder, and this is a time to pause.
A
Jesus would not be doing this segment. I just want to let you know right here and now.
B
That's true.
A
It's true. Yeah.
C
All right, so.
B
So you Think about what a meteoric rise this is. I mean, this is. Glenn, you know, this. This is not how media operates. You don't do what she's done here. This is like incredible. It's like she, you know, someone who never played basketball before and is in the NBA three years later, like, it's like legitimately incredible. Rise. You wonder how that rise occurred. Those questions may be answered later on.
A
Stop using the word rise. You're making me uncomfortable.
B
2018, she's included in the Forbes 30 under 30 list, which is a very prestigious list. October 2018, as a member of Working for New York Magazine, she's invited for an exclusive interview in the Oval Office to interview Donald trump again. She's 25 at this point. Very prestigious. She's awarded a next award by the American Society of Magazine Editors. She gets a documentary on MSNBC. She portrays herself on the Showtime show Billions in 2022. Oh, my gosh, again, this is someone who's a massive celebrity in that world. You might not know her name, but she is a massive celebrity. She gets a six, six part interview series for Bloomberg and then she does a profile of RFK Jr. The candidate who you may remember running for president as a Democrat. Okay, I can't remember if the profile happened when he was running as a Democrat or he had kind of flipped to an independent. But it's before he is endorsing Trump or there's Maha or any of that stuff. Right. Like that period. And she does this profile of him that I guess goes pretty well, and it comes out much more favorable, I would say, than many of the other previews or profiles of RFK Jr. In this period. But again, it has some criticism and some quirkiness in it, and her style of writing has all sorts of weird details and sometimes it's kind of. I think it's actually pretty good. I think some of her reporting was pretty good. She. She did have some really fascinating stories that she wrote over this period, but the celebrities seem to overextend past maybe what she had achieved in her career so far. So she writes this profile of RFK Jr and then the news breaks that RFK Jr and Olivia Nuzzi are having what they call an emotional affair, which seems to be lots of very, very detailed, loving text messages back and forth, promises about.
A
When you say loving, is it like, you know, you are a child of God and I just love you and want to help you anyway? Is that what you mean by loving? Or do you mean like Barry White loving?
B
Well, to put it another way, we're talking about a Kennedy. So I'm talking about Kennedy style love, which is again, ding dong pizza delivery. It's important to note that Olivia Nuzzi is engaged to another journalist, Ryan Lizza, at this time. And so she's engaged to somebody, RFK Jr, not that this makes seemingly any difference to him whatsoever, is married at the time and is still currently married to an actress in Hollywood. So she. He's doing this, she's doing this. This is suboptimal not only for a marriage, but also a presidential campaign. And this goes on. The news finally breaks that this has happened. Now this is a problem for a bunch of reasons. Number one, you have a fiance. Number two, the person you're texting with is married. Number three, though, a really serious journalist problem, right? Like you're profiling someone and having an affair with them at the same time. That is frowned upon, at least in theory, in the world of journalism. Now in practice, God only knows, but in theory, you're not supposed to do that. Glenn. This is something they tell you relatively early on at journalism school, I assume. And so.
A
I gotta apologize to all those people I've been sleeping with that.
B
Come on, is that. How many people have you profiled, Glenn? You just profiled the great mufti. Have you ever had any relations with.
A
Have you ever had the relations with the mufti? I gotta tell you the truth, Stu. Yep. Oh, no.
B
Back in 1942, so all of this comes out in the media and she sort of go. She gets fired from New York Magazine because of this journalistic lapse and she sort of goes into hyper hiding. Okay? She goes into hiding, she moves. She is not saying word one about this. And she knows, she talks a lot. So that's notable in this period. Ryan Lizza, her ex fiance, now they broke up, ex fiance and her are negotiating, according to him, a do not. What is it? Non disclosure. Don't talk about this. Don't disparage. No, no, let's just let this be over. He also gets a message, according to him, from an intermediate friend that says, hey, she never wants to talk about this again. She hopes you'll never talk about this again. Can we just move past this? And he, according to him, says, you know what, I'm on board with that. Let's just never let this go. So a little bit of time goes on and what we learn is her time in exile has actually been spent writing a book which is called American Canto. It is coming out in a couple of weeks from today or from Yesterday, two weeks from yesterday. And it's a book.
A
Does this one. Does the book include her time with Governor Mark Sanford?
B
Well, we're getting to that.
A
20, 19. 2020. I mean, she was sleeping with him too, before the JFK thing.
B
That's a big part of the story that we're getting to here because she, at this point, we don't even know. At this point in the story, we have no idea about that. We only know about the RFK Jr thing. So she releases this book, and in it is all these details about the RFK Jr thing. Now, you'd think the way the media would handle this woman who they've just ejected from their society for massive journalistic and moral lapses would be hammering her over her activity here. Instead, she gets a glowing profile in the New York Times with, like, her with the incredible foot. You gotta see the footage, Glenn. You'd love it. It's her. She's driving in a convertible, hair in the wind, like Chanel glasses. She looks spectacular as she's going down. This is how the New York Times rolls this out for her. And she talked about her rfk.
A
Okay, can you stop using a few terms you just used with going down? Let's stop using that as well. Let me talk to you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. You might not know this. This, but Argentina is home of the largest Jewish population in all of Latin America. Quarter of a million people. That weird because didn't the Nazis go to Argentina, too? You'd think they wouldn't go to the same place. The families went to Argentina fleeing occupied. Occupied Nazi, occupied Europe. And their children and the grandchildren still live there today. But since October 7th, Something Dark has been rising again. It's anti Semitism, and it's been showing up in Argentinian schools and universities, even Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires University most respected in South America, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews recently met with the Argentinian Union of Jewish Students, a group representing more than 25 campuses across the country who are fighting to keep Jewish students safe. Ivan is their secretary general and he described what they're facing. He said murals and graffiti calling for Israel's destruction sprayed across the walls and classrooms. Message is meant to intimidate, to isolate, to make Jewish students feel like strangers in a place that they every right to be. And the Fellowship is there standing with these students. And today we have the opportunity to do the same. If you want to send a message to people that we're there, we don't. We don't forget we're not going to forget our Jewish friends. I want you to call 888-488-IFCJ and make a donation. You can give online and find out all about the them at glennforthe fellowship.org that's glennforthefellowship.org call them now or go to glennforthefellowship.org 10 seconds. Station ID.
B
Okay, Glenn, so Ryan Lizza, the fiance writes this piece that you noted, outlines a relationship that he catches her in the middle of an affair. They've had sex. All of this other thing, all these other things, gives all the details. Turns out the whole time you believe it's RFK Jr. But at the end it is revealed it is not RFK Jr. He's actually talking about a previous affair with Mark Sanford, the former governor of South Carolina. Now what's fascinating about sexual, he had a previous sexual thing. He went on the Appalachian Trail, famously. He was not on the Appalachian Trail, he was having an affair. So that got happened. He broke up with that woman. He's back now running at this point, by the way, as an anti Trump, I'm like the guy you should Trust candidate in 2019 at that point, which is a fascinating development, honestly. But at this point he gets profiled again by Olivia Nuzzi. This is how they led into this. At some point there's these pictures of him looking very happy. And someone comments under her story, hey, he looks happy. And she says I tend to have that effect on people. I tend to have that effect. Well, I guess I bet you do, Olivia.
A
I bet you do.
B
I bet you make seemingly old white men very happy in many ways. So that all happens also in this story is our details that were not before known about her previous relationship with Keith Olbermann. Now what's fascinating about this one, I want to timeline this one for you, Glenn. She's currently 32 years old. Okay, 32 years old.
A
He's gotta be 65.
B
Well we know at one point when they were together, yeah, he's about 65 when they were together. At one point she was 21 and he was 55. So we know that. We know there's a 34 year difference between them. There's a 32 year difference, I believe between Sanford and her. So she has a type. But the timeline of that, she's 32. Now in the piece Lizza says he refers to the relationship as a lost deck, which would bring it back to 22. She also, he also says before that he helped her get out of the Olbermann relationship, which moves it to 21 at least. Are we talking 17? And Olbermann says they were together for four years, so are we talking 17 to 21? What four years are we talking? There's something weird there that Olbermann needs to address.
A
Wow, Unbelievable. These people are just such scumbags. Most people think they, they know if somebody stole their identity, you know, they imagine a big dramatic warning sign.

So Stu has been telling us here for the last half hour. Kind of a continuation of where we were yesterday because the story is just so salacious and so ridiculous and, and, and so just self unaware of the media. A young 20 something media icon in New York, you know, she tweets out, you know, why does the media always say that we're, you know, our, you know, young reporters are always sleeping with our, our subjects. Well, because you are. And we didn't know it at the time, but she was, she's been sleeping with many of the people that she's reporting on. And now Stu is just telling us after all of this stuff comes out, it's a big scandal in like, you know, her fiance's life. Doesn't seem to be a big scandal on the left in the, in the reporting circles. They don't seem to care at all. And you were talking about how that she, she just got this profile done of her where she's driving in this convertible, top down, looking great, blah, blah, blah. And it's a fluff piece. Was this to build her image into something? The media just wants to make sure that she's still in the group for some reason.
B
I mean, it's to promote her book, I would say, largely, and it has some criticism, it goes through some overscander. But it is a, you know, it's a, it's a piece that you'd hope for, certainly as you're releasing a new book. And at one point she's talking about how she would cover the mayoral campaign of that. That just happened in New York.
A
Does it start with her sleeping whip on die?
B
I don't know. But I think Eric Adams would like it because she said she should. Someone should be with Eric Adams. And he's like, yeah, you come here.
A
Cover me, baby, cover me.
B
At one point the, the New York Times journalist says, can you believe Eric Adams threw his entire career and life away over business class travel? Which was sort of the allegation when he was going through a scandal. And she replies, well, I threw mine away for much less. Which isn't exactly complimentary to RFK Jr. I suppose, but I think she's relatively self aware, at least some of the stuff.
A
Yeah. Pretty brilliant of her, though.
B
It's a great.
A
I said to the. Because tonight. We'll get back to this in a second, but tonight the Cracker Barrel. There's two parts of Cracker Barrel. I'll get into this in a second, but I was talking to the CEO and I said, who put the, who put the meme out with the White House with a Cracker Barrel edition where the new ballroom is going to be. Did you see that tweet? And somebody had made that meme and Cracker Bell put out. I don't think you want us anywhere near any remodeling. Yeah, great line. And I said to them, I said that whoever did that should get a raise. Not taking yourself so seriously was the best move you guys made after this debacle. She's doing the same thing. Yeah, I guess I threw my life away for even less than that.
B
So, yeah, it's a smart way to handle it. For sure.
A
It's a smart way to handle it.
B
And you know, she's very media savvy, to say the very least. So we left off with the story.
A
Left with some of the best.
B
That's true. She's learned from the best. So we left off with Keith Olbermann. Olbermann dated her before all of this happened. And there's some details in the write up from her ex fiance that talks about this.
A
Can you just stop? Let the vomiting stop before you go. After you said dating Keith Olbermann, let everybody get the vomiting done.
B
There's more vomiting to come on that particular one. I'm sorry, I can't help you on that one. So he paid for her to attend college. Keith Olbermann paid for Nutzi to attend college, gave her all these fancy dresses, $15,000 worth of Cartier jewelry. He covered her rent. He furnished her apartment in a doorman building in the West Village. Now he has a defense to all of this, which is interesting because I think in this case the defense is worse than the crime.
A
Because he says, leave it to Olbermann.
B
Of course, he says, by the way, about this, all the money that was spent. Olivia and I lived together for four years. That's his description of the event. Four plus years is how he says it. Four birthdays, four Christmases, four anniversaries. That's like $1,250 of jewelry per celebration. And her apartment was a writing studio. And I made an F ton then. Meaning he made a lot of money. What was I supposed to do? Get her a lot of gift certificates from Kmart? So that's his defense. He like, oh gosh, I wasn't showering her with gifts. I wasn't a sugar daddy. That's kind of the allegation that's been put up against him. He's like, instead I was just living with her and giving her nice presents for all of the birthdays. But again, this brings the timeline very much into question here.
A
Here.
B
We know that they were together at 21 years old. Okay. We know that they now lived together for four plus years by Keith's own admission. Okay. And we would assume they at least went on one date before they moved into with each other.
A
So. Well, so what's the.
B
I mean, just kind of throwing numbers out there. Is it four and a half years they were dating? Let's just say four and a half years. You know, they moved in pretty quickly together. That puts the beginning of their relationship to predate her internship with the wiener campaign. Now, I don't. Maybe that's not right. You know, it is a little confusing. There's some overlapping timelines here. But let's put.
A
She started with. She started with the one wiener at 1820.
B
That was I think it was 20. At 20, she's 20 years old.
A
And why do you say that it would predate. Could we know that the end of that relationship was 2020?
B
We don't know the. I don't know the exact end of the relationship, but we do know that her fiance said it was a lost decade of a relationship that ended in 2024. So that would put her back at about 21 years old, if you take that term literally. Now maybe it was only seven years and it was really 20 to 24 years old. They were living together. It's possible. We don't know exactly, but I think clarification is necessary because we're. The best case scenario here is Keith is looking for barely legal girls. That's the best case scenario. The best reading on this is this multimillionaire 55 year old trolling for interns, you know, that were 18, 19, 20, 17, something like that. So that's where we are, the Keith Olbermann situation. Now what's fascinating about all of this and they're in, you know, there is a point to all of this, which is when you see someone in the media say you're a racist, say you're a transphobe, say that you're killing grandma because you won't wear a mask outdoors telling you that when you go to your kids PTA or the, the school board meeting and are upset that they're teaching sex to them at 12 years old, when those people tell you that you're the bad ones, remember that they are all the worst people society has ever produced. They really are doing.
A
I mean, I mean, I mean, well.
B
You know, there's a few others.
A
I think Mengele was much worse. Obviously there is a level above, but in polite society there's some of the worst morally, they're some of the most reprehensible people around.
B
They are doing incredible, incredible things that you don't know about and their judgment should mean nothing to you.
A
Nothing, Nothing to you.
B
Going to that, you know that, that whole tweet you put out, which is a fascinating button on the end of this story where she writes a story. I remember reading it in 2015. Hey, why are you portraying these women? These young female reporters is just sleeping their way to the top. That's awful.
A
As sluts.
B
Yeah, that was actually a word she was called, by the way. That exact word. She was called after the Anthony Weiner issue.
A
Oh my God. How appropriate is that Howiner campaign is that?
B
Yes. So, so interesting. But like what's fascinating about that is, I, you know, I saw that screenshot, which is of Zoe Barnes, the journalist in that series House of Cards. Then she was, you know, sleeping around. And as I saw it, I was like, God, I love that series. So I went back and watched the first episode of the show just because I was like, I gotta watch that again. It was really good, at least the first couple of seasons of it. And in that.
A
And she was the one that was pushed into front of the train, right?
B
Yes. I mean, that's a. The biggest spoiler alert of all time. But yes, it's 10 years old. It's fine. But what I'm saying is, like, it's just, it's one of the greatest moments in television. I mean, I remember watching, watching it and then re. Watching it like five times. I was so shocked by that moment.
A
Yeah.
B
And so I, you know, I want to go back through it, but in that the young female journalist is portrayed at one point of sleeping around a little bit. She is also portraying as a woman who goes to Frank Underwood, the powerful congressman, and tells him that she will print anything he says and never ask a question about it. And that was never controversial. There was no pushback against that portrayal of journalism. That portrayal of journalism was just like, left out there. Like that happens all the time. The sleeping around was the only thing that there was pushback on. I found that to be pretty ridiculous and fascinating.
A
Happens all the time.
B
All the time.
A
I think that happens all the time. These guys, I mean, look, this. I'm going to tell a Woodrow Wilson story.
B
Here we go.
A
This is this, this is what that was all about. Bring the press in and wine and dine them and make them part of the family. Don't allow them to look at our relationship as adversarial people. Bring them in, you know, flatter them. Show them that we trust you because you can talk to the American people. And you know where that, that's how that all got mixed up. That's how that all got mixed up.
B
Now let me ask you this, Glenn. Is this what Cracker Barrel was attempting with you? With me? Is that what they were trying to do? They're trying to bring you in to get like a good PR spin out of this? Is that was their, was that their attempt?
A
Do these pancakes turn you on, Glenn? Yes. Yes, they do. Yes, they do. By the way, tonight there's a two part special. Tonight I am taking you to this big, huge warehouse that Cracker Barrel has. And it, it's the guy who collects the history for Cracker Barrel. And he is just the greatest guy. I just love this guy. His name Joe Stewart. And he took me around in this enormous warehouse of actual American history from all over the country. And he looks for the real thing. All the, the, all of the things you remember from childhood, from games to signs to, you know, fruit can labels, all of this stuff. We walk in and he shows me, we're in the front room and he's like, I want you to look up there. He said, notice that Coca Cola sign up there? And it was a paper sign, huge paper sign. And I said, yes. And he said, what sticks out? And I said, well, first of all it says refreshing and healthful. So that tells me it's very old. And I said, just looking at the logo, I imagine late 1800s, first five years of the 20th century. And he said, exactly right after the turn of the century, he said, it's the only one in existence and healthful is the key to that sign. And he's talking to me and I'm looking at it and I'm like. I said, how much is that worth, do you think? And he said, well, it's only what, worth what somebody will pay for it. He said, but Coca Cola Atlanta came up and tried to buy it. And he said they offered half a million dollars for it. This is years ago. Half a million dollars for it. And as he said that, I noticed that there were two sprinkler heads right in front of the sign. And he kept talking and I finally, I mean, I was like, Joe, stop, please, please take that down right now. I cannot even concentrate with a 500,000 one of a kind piece of American history with two sprinkler heads right in front of it. But I take you through their. It's not a museum. It's just this collection of American stuff that is just so cool. Then tomorrow I sit down with the CEO of Cracker Barrel. Can we play this quickly, Sarah? Here's a tease from. For tomorrow's podcast. You'll see it on Blaze TV and then Saturday, wherever you get your podcast. Listen, The Cracker Barrel needs to feel like the Cracker Barrel for today and for tomorrow. Cracker Barrel rebrand tank stock. The changes are not being received very well on social media at all. What sounds good? Are you an egg guy? Are you a pancake guy? I don't know. I don't care how you vote. I don't care. Don't slap me across the face. You as individuals can make whatever choice you want, but don't preach to me. Had the company embraced dei. I don't need that from my brand. Were you surprised you weren't fired? Um. And we are, so. I'm so sorry for the misunderstanding. I regret it. I don't want people to be mad at us. My job is to make people love Cracker Barrel and I'll be mad at Cracker Barrel. When you hear her answer to. Were you surprised? Are you surprised you haven't been fired? When you hear her answer that tells you everything you need to know about this scandal. It is an amazing interview. She was not comfortable at any point during the interview. And I don't like conflict, but I wanted to make sure I. I asked her the honest question. So I knew. What is this? Is this somebody you know from San Francisco? No, she's from Cincinnati. Is this somebody from San Francisco that came in with an agenda And I want you to know and let the chips fall where they may. That is tomorrow on the podcast tonight, we show you the history that Cracker Barrel has collected for all of their stores. That's tonight on the Wednesday night TV special. Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. Here's what's strange about the big mogul mobile companies. They sell you a service, but, you know, they never tell you what they're going to do with your money. You sign up for a plan, you expect decent coverage, and then you find out later that. That a good portion of your bill is actually being used to be pushing political activism that you would never support. Do you want to give money to Planned Parenthood? If you have Verizon, some of your money goes to Planned Parenthood. Why do you still have Verizon? Switch to Patriot Mobile. It's the exact opposite. They're America's only Christian, conservative wireless provider. They tell you where your money is going. They built their entire company on transparency. So there's no hidden agendas, no surprise donations. You get great service on the same nationwide network as a big Guy, and your money stays with the companies and the causes that you actually believe in. And the switching process is super easy. You can keep your number, keep your phone. They'll walk you through every step, step by step. Patriot Mobile premium access to all three major U.S. networks.

Episode: CONCERNING: Why Are Democrats Urging Military to DEFY Trump?
Date: November 19, 2025
Host: Glenn Beck (with frequent co-host Stu and contributor Jason)
Network: Blaze Podcast Network
This episode is a fast-paced, opinion-driven exploration into claims that Democrats are subtly urging the US military and intelligence agencies to potentially refuse orders from a possible Trump administration. Framing this as a “concerning” and orchestrated campaign, Glenn Beck and his team unpack recent Democratic messaging, compare it to past examples of executive overreach, and raise alarm about intentional efforts to sow distrust in American institutions. The episode then pivots to broader culture war issues — the role of international law in US cities, historical roots of radical organizations, the significance of antisemitism surges, and the salacious self-destruction of media figures. Throughout, Beck and team combine current news, historical analysis, and their own blistering commentary.
(Timestamps ~05:05, 07:51, 09:08)
Beck opens with reporting from The New York Times about Trump authorizing CIA operations in Venezuela, claiming the story isn't new but is being recycled to stoke public anxiety or serve a political agenda.
Main subject: A video featuring prominent Congressional Democrats (Alyssa Slotkin, Mark Kelly, Chrissy Houlihan, Jason Crow, etc., all ex-military or intelligence) addressing “members of the military and the intelligence community,” reminding them to refuse illegal orders.
Notable Quote:
"Americans trust their military, but that trust is at risk. This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens like us... Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders." – Various Democrats in video ([08:14-08:39])
Beck fully agrees with the message’s constitutional core, but is highly suspicious about its timing and ambiguity:
"All this is doing is undermining not in the mind of the military... This sows the seed of doubt in the mind of the average American. They're now sowing the seed, saying Donald Trump is doing something unconstitutional with our military. What is it?... If you could be specific, I would have no problem." – Glenn Beck ([09:08–10:46])
Analysis:
"At some point, if you believe your president is doing unconstitutional things and forcing the military... you're getting a lot of people out on the streets for that one, if this thing were to be successful." – Stu ([19:32])
(Timestamps ~05:44, 10:46)
Jason and Glenn discuss the recurring leaks about Venezuela, asserting the deep state is maneuvering public perception against Trump, and connecting media leaks to operatives with larger goals.
Beck launches into criticism of the intelligence community (FBI, CIA, NSA), referencing Obama-era abuses (kill lists, drone strikes on citizens), and citing the lack of similar congressional warnings in those eras.
"Who in their right mind today thinks the CIA is under control? ... I know the American people know that you're doing things that you should not be doing, and you've been doing them under every president for God only knows how long." – Glenn Beck ([12:27–14:04])
Analysis:
(Timestamps ~22:13)
Beck & Stu mock the new NY mayor’s claim that “New York is a city of International law,” calling the statement both “worse than the video” from Democrats and “blatantly against our Constitution.”
Stu notes exceptions for issues like UN diplomats, but asserts US law overwhelmingly applies.
"The city of New York is a city in the United States of America, and it is only under the law of the Constitution of the United States. That's the law we abide to." – Glenn Beck ([22:14])
(Timestamps ~17:57, 20:01, 20:58)
The team argues that all these tactics (media leaks, viral videos, ambiguous public statements) are about “undermining credibility, sowing chaos, and tearing us apart even more.”
Jason points out that lawful disobedience is already deeply embedded in military and intelligence organizations — but the new messaging is about shaping public, not internal, doubt.
"This feels like it's about politics, right? ...you can build to not only a political answer, but... also the chaos in the streets angle." – Stu ([18:26])
(Timestamps ~48:46–54:41, 69:13–70:53)
The second half segues into Governor Abbott’s designation of the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as foreign terrorist organizations in Texas, a move Beck hails but questions its enforceability.
Beck details the origins of the Muslim Brotherhood through the life of Hajj Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and his ties to Adolf Hitler, Nazi propaganda, and Yasser Arafat.
Notable Quote:
"The Grand Mufti was not just a regional religious leader. He became one of the most influential collaborators with Adolf Hitler. ... [He] mentored Yasser Arafat, who led the PLO... and from that poisoned well sprang Fatah, Black September, the PLO, Islamic Jihad, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood... All different names, same infection.” – Glenn Beck ([50:12–53:49])
Jason and Glenn discuss how the Nazi-to-Middle-East ideological pipeline still animates the region's worst actors; the show's upcoming “Torch” digital education offering will further illuminate these histories.
Analysis:
(Timestamps ~90:03–120:38, "Hour 3")
In the final hour, the show shifts gears to media gossip, dissecting the rise and recent scandals of high-profile journalist Olivia Nuzzi (affairs with RFK Jr., Mark Sanford, Keith Olbermann).
Stu and Beck tie this saga to their view of media hypocrisy, internal corruption, and the way headlines are ignored (or weaponized) based on political tribes.
Notable Exchange:
"When you see someone in the media say you're a racist..., remember that they are all the worst people society has ever produced. They really are... Their judgment should mean nothing to you. Nothing." – Stu & Glenn ([117:47–118:07])
Analysis:
(Timestamps ~69:13–77:37, throughout ads and station breaks)
Discussion of Glenn’s “Torch” educational project: an AI-powered platform to provide deep, accurate historical lessons (using Glenn’s archives, AI-generated podcasts, etc.), promising both broad and deep dives per listener request.
Notable Quote:
"We are going to change not only the way history is taught, but also the way broadcast is being done. This kind of broadcast and podcasting, we think that we have a code here that unlocks an entirely new world of understanding and education." – Glenn Beck ([77:31])
The episode draws a thread through disparate current events, history, and media culture to illustrate (from Beck’s perspective) a concerted effort by elite networks to destabilize trust in American institutions — especially in times when the populist or outsider right threatens establishment power. Beck and team oppose what they see as a weaponizing of patriotic principles (such as refusal to obey illegal orders) and frame it as part of a “color revolution” to make Trump ungovernable and American society chaotic.
Other takeaways include:
The tone is charged, satirical, and deeply skeptical of Democratic narratives and mainstream institutions.
