This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome. We've got a lot happening in the news. The pace is breathtaking. We're gonna begin in 60 seconds. But first, what is your legacy? What are we leaving behind for our children, our grandchildren, when we go leaving them a country? Well, that would be a nice thing. America will be theirs when we're gone. That's the reason why we fight. So, you know, we fight for all the things that we believe in. It is for our children. Especially if you're at an age old enough to Understand that we want to leave them our wealth, whatever that may be so they can hopefully have a leg up in building their own futures. That's the way it's worked in America forever. But I want you to consider all of the money that you have put away. If you put anything away in your 401k or wherever it is that could be gone in a heartbeat if everything doesn't play exactly the way well, it's never played out before in human history.

Alright, I want to start with two stories. First let's start with the plane crash in Washington D.C. first thing that has to be said is pray for the families and the rescue workers. It is horrible. An experienced pilot of a passenger jet collided with a, with a what they're saying is a fairly experienced crew of a Blackhawk helicopter. There appear to be no survivors, 67 people believed to be dead. They are still diving in the icy, icy waters of the Potomac. The Reagan national airport in Washington D.C. is a very dangerous airport. So pray for everybody involved. Now it's too early to assign any blame but the usual is happening in the world of politics. Donald Trump is responsible, blah blah blah. But we do know that there is a problem, a real problem with our air traffic control system. Nobody has talked about it, nobody in the press wants to talk about it. But there have been several near misses and something is happening. Now in the end it may not be this but I want to bring this up because Stu did a whole Blaze original documentary on the dangerous conditions that are currently par for the course in our control towers.
Cash Patel
Yeah, it was called Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster which turned out to be 70 days from when we release it. You know we talked about a lot of this and we don't know the cause obviously there's still a lot of investigation to do. But you know you're talking about these air traffic controllers are Overworked and understaffed. And of course, there was lots of concerns about things like dei. No idea at this point whether that has anything to do with it. But one thing we did know and did see over and over again in the documentary is how many times we've had close calls over the past couple of years. The pace has picked up like crazy. And the fact that we had gone all of these years without one of these types of incidents was a miracle. I mean, it was bound to happen. And there's still a lot of investigation to find out. But this is America's busiest Runway and.
Stu Burguiere
One of our shorter runways.
Cash Patel
Shorter runways.
Stu Burguiere
It's dangerous.
Cash Patel
And we were just there. I just took off from that airport a week or two ago and it is tight. Everything around there is really, really tight. It's amazing that that many helicopters could go up and down that river and not have more of these incidents. Very scary.
Stu Burguiere
Here is the audio from the control tower. S2505 has a aircraft inside. 72 Washington Star 1, Star 3217 Fire Command. The accident happened in the river. Both the helicopter and the plane crashed in the river. It's east of the approach end of Runway 33.
Chip Roy
Is the airfield closed?
Glenn Beck
Yes, the airfield is closed.
Stu Burguiere
The airfield is closed.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Runways as well?
Stu Burguiere
Yes, all runways are closed. Nobody's landing. No one's moving at all. Our government is out of control. And we all know this. If you're being honest with yourself, we know this. Our government has given billions of dollars out in Covid fraud. They, they were fraudulent with what they even said about COVID When they gave all that money out, nobody caught it. We're not going to get it back. Hundreds of billions of dollars at the Pentagon has just been misplaced. They've done like 18 audits. They just have no idea where they put, you know, $600 billion. Our Navy was told to build a dock to distribute aid to the Palestinians. And after millions of dollars, it failed. Our, our, our extraction from Afghanistan, everything we have touched, not just in the last four years, but everything that we have touched from the financial situation that our government was involved in, our health care, everything over the last few decades has revealed incompetence, graft, stupidity, waste, and I think intentional sabotage of our nation's will, wealth and reputation. But we don't have to go over that because that's why Donald Trump was elected. But as I told you before, we have many dark days ahead of us. But then if we allow this administration to do what they promised, the clouds will break and it will be morning in America again, and we will be able to write a new chapter. But we are in the thick of it. Let me give you this. You and I both know something deeply, deeply wrong with our intelligence agencies in this country and every American. I don't care who you voted for. Every American should be concerned about this because these agencies were supposed to be on the front line of our defense, keeping us safe from foreign threats, working in the shadows to protect the freedoms that we all take for granted. That was the idea, but I don't know when it changed, but it changed. Somewhere along the way, the people trusted to defend our Constitution and our rule of law started seeing the American people as the very people they swore to protect as the enemy. You've seen it. You may have even felt it personally. The agencies that are supposed to protect us from threats abroad have turned inward. Instead of focusing on real dangers like China's economic warfare, cyber threats, terrorist networks, they've been caught spying on American citizens, censoring their dissent, manipulating public perception. The intelligence community, whether intentionally or or through sear a sheer institutional rot, has become a political weapon, and you cannot deny it. This is not just some theory. You don't have to go digging into the shadows to find proof. You don't have to listen to any conspiracy theories. It's right there in plain sight. We watched intelligence officials interfere with with the elections. They buried stories that were inconvenient for the powerful. They targeted sitting presidents. They excused other sitting presidents. And if you spoke out against it, those people became a target. The best example is, well, Donald Trump, but the next one is Tulsi Gabbard. She was a Democrat. You probably remember the moment she went from being a rising star in Washington to a threat that had to be destroyed. It wasn't when she served as a Democrat in Congress. It wasn't when she deployed to Iraq and served honorably. It was when she started asking questions and refused to fall in line. When she called out the war machine, they smeared her. She became a traitor when she started to question the political machine and when she challenged the intelligence community's narratives, she was labeled as Russian asset almost immediately. When she stood up to the establishment, she was quietly and without cause placed on a government terror watch list. Now think about that for a second. Somebody who is a lieutenant colonel, I believe, served honorably, I believe still serves, ran for President of the United States as a Democrat, a sitting member of Congress, a woman who swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, labeled as a potential terrorist by the institutions that are supposed to defend American democracy. That's out of control. You know it and I know it. But she, despite everything they threw at her, did not back down. She fought back. She stood. She refused to stop asking questions. That is exactly why she needs to be confirmed as the Director of National Intelligence. She is a proven warrior that has shown she is not afraid to take a bullet in the field or a metaphorical or physical bullet here in the country to defend our way of life, to ask the questions that must be asked. The person leading the intelligence community right now should not be and cannot be another Washington insider. It cannot be somebody who spent their career moving from one agency to another. It cannot be somebody who has just made all the right connections, learn to play the game. It must be someone who has seen the system from both the inside and the outside and truly understands, in her case, firsthand, how broken it is because she was targeted by it. Believe me, there is a difference between the Donald Trump of 2016 and the Trump of 2024. What is it? He saw the machine from the inside and the outside, and it tried to destroy him. So he knows how dangerous it is. Much of this in our country is coming from black ops money that just is never accounted for. Our intelligence agency turning all of the weapons in coordination with five eyes on you. You know, when I talk to Donald Trump, I feel the same way I feel about Tulsi Gabbard. When Donald Trump was on the stage in Pennsylvania bleeding, he told me his only thought was, this is pathetic. Get up. Don't show them weakness. Get up. And he got up and said, fight. I feel the same way about Tulsi Gabbard. She has been under the gun and she has had the courage to stand up and face it and continue to say it to their face. You want somebody that has the courage to make sure that what happened to them never happens to you. Tulsi Gabbard is that person. She knows what needs to be fixed. She knows these agencies have been abused. And unlike the career bureaucrats who see reform as nothing but a talking point, she actually has the will to do something about it. Now, think about what that means to you. A Director of National Intelligence that isn't owned by a party, left or right, who isn't loyal to an administration, Biden, or Trump, but is loyal to the truth. Who has a record of saying, you know what? I was wrong about that. Who isn't interested in maintaining the status quo, but in restoring intelligence agencies to what they were meant to be, and if not, shut them down. They are supposed to be defenders of the American people and our Constitution, not enforcers of an agenda. This is not about left or right. It is about whether you believe the intelligence agencies should be used to protect the country or control the country. Whether you think these agencies should work for you or whether they should should have to live in fear that one day they might might decide that you're a problem. I know because I've talked to senators and I've talked to congressmen who have told me in the dead of night with no cell phones around and outdoors, they are afraid of the intelligence agencies because they're being watched and monitored and they feel under threat. Now, the Senate today is going to try to make this all about politics. They'll ask all of the stupid questions like yesterday, are you for onesies or not? They'll pretend they're vetting her like any other nominee. But what they're really deciding is whether they want somebody in that position who will challenge the system or just let sleeping dogs lie. Do you want somebody who does that or who will shine the light where the light isn't supposed to be shined. You want somebody who can be bullied, can be compromised, or do you want somebody who cannot be bullied, bought or blackmailed into compliance? If that's what you want? The latter. If you believe intelligence should serve truth, not power, let your senators know Tulsi Gabbard is the only ch.

Stu Burguiere
Last night on my Wednesday night special, I was talking to Brownstone Research founder and CEO Jeff Brown. He's a guy who's been in Silicon Valley for, for decades. He knows all the players, he's an angel investor. And I asked him about, can we trust the people that are in our government now that have been standing behind Donald Trump? Can we Trust them with AI? Cut 17. Listen to this. Do you trust the softbank guy and Zuckerberg and Bezos and I mean all these people that were with the WEF and now they're standing behind Trump going, yeah. One of them is on record saying China is the kind of the model for AI. I hope not. I hope not.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
No, China is not the model for artificial intelligence. And no, we cannot trust Google or Metta at this stage. You know, they are still actively censoring certain content and pushing political narratives on their platforms. It's only X at this stage, which is really protecting freedom of speech right now.
Stu Burguiere
Right. And it looks like Elon Musk kind of left out of this one. I mean, he has X AI. Everybody's saying, you know, he's getting so many favors. Not on this one. And this is the big one. This is the big one.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
And I actually think Musk and his team at XAI, which have built the data center colossus right outside of Memphis.
Stu Burguiere
Tennessee, they're the wild cards.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I believe they're really going to take the entire industry by storm in a.
Stu Burguiere
Matter of months, I think no later.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Than April or May, and come out with something that demonstrates some elements of AGI. Everyone has been discounting XAI and Musk because they have a perception that, that they got a late start at this, but they're moving faster than anyone else in the industry.
Stu Burguiere
What do you mean some elements of AGI? How will that manifest itself?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Well, you know, we're, some would argue that we're seeing some of it already.
Stu Burguiere
I'm going to stop because this is, this is a 20 minute interview and you really need to hear it. You know, Stu and I talked right after I did the, the interview. Yesterday and the things he said are shocking because he came on and said I was wrong. You know, I've been tracking Jeff and I have been talking about this for a long time and he said this thing, these things will happen in 2030. He is now saying that artificial superintelligence will be here before the next election. Before the next election. We've been concerned about deep fakes. That's nothing. Listen to last night's. If you're a Blaze TV TV subscriber, go to BlazeTV.com and get last night's episode with the full interview. It'll be available at 6 o'clock tonight on YouTube but it is very well worth your time. That's the Glenn Beck Wednesday night Special available on YouTube tonight at 6. And right now on demand at the BlazeTV. This is Glenn Beck. All right. You know, you, we, we've all experienced some things about living in America that we never saw before and we're starting to get a little bit used to it in some ways. You go to the store and you try to get something and it's out. What do you mean it's out? It's a bummer, kind of annoying. But there's one item that when you go to, let's say pick up medication and they say it's out and I don't know when we're going to get anymore, you, I mean that's not good. That's not America. Well, the Jace case is a simple, reliable emergency supply of life saving medications to put control in your hands. There is no way to prepare for little, literally everything that could go wrong. But now there are lots of ways to prepare for everything that you know could go wrong. Even if it's as simple as I'm going on a vacation, we're going hiking in the mountains. If somebody gets sick, I don't want to travel all the way down, you bring that medication with you. This isn't about fear, it's about responsibility. Being prepared is the best way to protect your family and your future. Don't wait for the next headline to wake you up. Go to jace.com j a s e.com Enter the promo code Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. We're glad you've joined us today. We were just talking about the tragedy in D.C. at Reagan National. And Stu mentioned that Blaze has done a documentary. He was. He. He actually did it for Blaze. And it is all on exactly what might have played a role in this particular crash. Yeah.
Cash Patel
Again, it's called AV Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster is available on YouTube if you want to watch it for free. I put it on the. Pinned it to the top of my Twitter feed at studiosamerica. It goes through a lot of this stuff. I mean, because it's not just like, okay, DEI in the FAA is a big issue. It doesn't necessarily mean it applies to this particular crash. But it also goes into just how inefficient, how old these systems are. They're working with. I mean, they are literally working with floppy disks at some of these airports. Floppy disks. When's the last time you saw a floppy disk that wasn't in a museum?
Stu Burguiere
This is the problem with government paper records.
Cash Patel
Literally, people handing pieces of paper to other people. No digitized system at all. Just handing pieces of paper to other people to show a new flight is coming in. Again, some of these airports are more advanced than others. And DCA is super, super crowded. Lots of planes landing really compact. It's amazing that this stuff was even allowed that you'd allow helicopters to be flying that close at that same altitude.
Stu Burguiere
But in dc, you have to all the time. You have to look. We are. We need to completely re view everything our government does and know that it is trapped in the Stone Age. In many ways. It is just. It's not efficient. It is. It's just. It's trapped in the past. And all of the people. I mean, look at them. All the people. I mean, I look like a spring chicken compared to most of the people in the Senate and Congress. Not good. We don't have real thinkers. We have lawyers. We need people who see the vision of the future. And let me bring this up again. We were just talking about Jeff Brown and last night's Wednesday night special. Let me give you the headline today on AI. An AI researcher and safety officer at ChatGPT Creator OpenAI, has quit the company, saying he is pretty terrified at the current pace of artificial intelligence. He said, when I think about where I'll raise a future family or how much to save for retirement, I can't help but wonder, will humanity even make it to this point? He says we are close in a race to get artificial intelligence that meets or exceeds human level intelligence, known as AGI, artificial general intelligence. He says leading researchers have warned that once AGI or super intelligence is achieved, humans will no longer be able to control it. He said an AGI race is a very risky gamble with a huge downside. No lab has a solution to AI alignment, which means aligning AI with, you know, the goals of humans. And the faster we race, the less likely anyone finds any solution in time. I want you to do me, do me a favor and I trying to find ways to explain this to the average person so you can explain it to the average person. So let me try this. I want you to imagine for just a minute that the President of the United States, alongside with NASA, the European Space Agency, the world's most renowned astrophysicist, steps in front of cameras. And he's just the first of many. All over the world, the prime ministers and presidents are doing the same thing in their countries. Something feels off. Never seen that before. And then with a gravity that transcends all politics, the President says this. We have detected a fleet of ships of unknown origin heading towards Earth. We estimate they will arrive by 2028. We don't know their intentions. We don't know where they're from. We know that they are from deep space and the technology is beyond our understanding. But we must prepare. We have four years now. Take a breath. What would be happening on Earth after that press conference? What would people be doing? Would they be in their churches? Would they be in the streets? What would be do? Nobody would be quiet about it. Would they. Would you be in fear? Denial? Exhilarated? Would we really concentrate on. Wait, we don't know anything about them. Are they friend or foe? And if they're friendly, they must be far more advanced than we are. And that would be great because they could bring technology that changes everything and war, disease, hunger, maybe even an end to death itself, some would say. But what if they're not friendly? What if there's something beyond our comprehension? What if they are not living beings at all, but they are machines? It's a form of AI and what if to work with them, to understand them, they would recommend that we merge with the machine transhuman and we begin. The only way we can understand because they're so far ahead of us, is to implant things in us so we can merge with them. All I want you to do in this scenario is to. Is to replace an alien space fleet with artificial superintelligence. We now are on pace to possibly have super intelligence with us by the time we go to the ballot box for the next election for president. It's not coming from the depths of space, but from the depths of our own creation. And it is coming faster than anyone imagined. We don't fully understand what it is, what it wants, what it means for the future of humanity. And it is not. People think of AI as, you know, Siri or Alexa. It's not that. And it's also not the Terminator. Both of those are wrong. What is coming is not chatbot. It's not a robot with glowing red eyes. It is something we've never encountered before, A form of intelligence that surpasses human understanding. We won't know how it even thinks or works. Something that doesn't think the way we do, doesn't value what we value, won't necessarily play by our rules unless we force it to, and then only for a time. How do you enforce something that is literally billions of times smarter than every brain on Earth? Artificial Superintelligence is coming before the next election, and it will not be human. Right now, artificial intelligence is like a gifted but narrow tool. It can beat humans at chess, generate art, diagnose diseases, but it does everything within specific limits. But we're at the brink now. Maybe by 2025, 26, the end of this year, beginning of next year. Artificial General Intelligence. That's a system that can learn and reason across all domains. Like you. 18 months away, perhaps. And once AGI is here, ASI artificial superintelligence will follow, probably immediately after. Because unlike human intelligence, which evolves slowly, ASI will be able to improve itself at speeds we cannot even imagine. It will go from human, human level intelligence to thousands and millions, maybe even billions of times smarter than us in days, hours, maybe minutes. So what happens then? Well, there are two possibilities there. It becomes our greatest ally. It solves problems we never could. It cures cancer, eradicates poverty, unlocks the mysteries of the universe. It leads us to a golden age of prosperity, knowledge and peace. And we live in harmony with it. 2. It becomes our final mistake. It sees us as irrelevant, a roadblock to efficiency and its goals. After all, if it's millions or perhaps billions of times smarter than we are, why would we expect it to view us as anything more than how we view a termite? Do we not eliminate termites without malice? Because it's a disruption of our goals and plans? We're not mad at the termites. We're mad that we didn't eradicate them. Maybe earlier. We don't mourn for them. We. We do it without malice and really without thought, because we are far superior. What happens if AGI looks at humans and says they're not just no longer necessary, but they're a danger to themselves and the goals that are my goals as AGI. And it acts swiftly, without emotion, without warning. Okay, so which future do we get? We really don't know. This is why I urge you to please have these conversations. And there are things that you can do, and I'm going to go into them in the coming days. There are actual, tangible things that, that you can do to prepare. But all of this depends on who's in control. So who would you trust? Let's go back to the aliens. Who would you trust to be the welcoming committee? To be the first ones to communicate and set the rules and explain who we are as people? If the alien race was arriving and needed a global response, would you trust the United Nations? Would you trust the leaders that are always at the World Economic Forum? Some people who have spent decades manipulating economies, suppressing free thought, centralizing power? Do you want those guys to be the welcoming committee? Or would you be like, no, I, I, I, I think we need to have some regular people there too. Would you trust the people who have openly stated their desire for authoritarian control, for population reduction, for a world where the sacredness of individual life is an inconvenience to their vision? I wouldn't trust them to greet an alien fleet. Would you? So why are we putting those people in charge of asi? Because here's the hard truth. If ASI falls into the wrong hands, it will not serve humanity. It will serve its temporary master. Okay, so imagine ASI is here and it offers you something incredible. It tells you, hey, don't fear death anymore. Upload your consciousness. You're going to live forever. Would you do it? You may face that by the time there's inauguration of the very next president. Would you do it? No more aging. No more pain. Your thoughts, your experiences, the essence of you, all preserved in a digital world. But is that you? Is that really you? Is your soul just a collection of memories and patterns? Or is there something more? Something eternal, Something beyond the reach of code and algorithms? Would you, Would the uploaded you feel joy? Love, God? Or would it just be nothing more than an echo, A simulation of what you once were? Because here's the final, most profound question. If ASI can end death, but at the cost of what makes us human? Our souls, our free will, our connection to something greater. Is it life? Or would it be the end of it? In the coming years, we're going to face the most profound choice in human history. Will control of asi? Will we control it or will it control us? And perhaps most importantly, when the moment comes, when the temptation is placed right in front of us, will we remember our worth is not found in intelligence or power or even life itself, but in the soul that no machine can replicate. The future as bright as beyond your comprehension or is dark beyond your comprehension is arriving fast. Choose wisely. Abortion is still a tragic part of our lives as Americans. I mean, you want to talk about life? What is life? We can't even decide this. It has to come to an end. We have to change the hearts and minds in this country. You cannot regulate these things.

I want to tell you about a new movie from Angel Studios, the studio behind Sound of Freedom. It's called Brave the Dark, and it is an inspiring true story about a troubled teen who is struggling to survive in a world that's let him down. He's haunted by torturous childhood memories. His name is Nate Williams. He finds himself sort of engulfed in darkness, and his drama teacher bails him out of jail. And he says, hey, you know, let's turn this whole thing around. Brave the Dark reminds us that one meaningful connection can change everything. And it's a powerful film that's going to leave you uplifted and inspired. And it shows the strength of compassion and the amazing impact it can have when you never give up on a person. Angel Studios has been putting out a lot of amazing content lately. This is just another great example of it. We've been building that parallel economy we've been talking about for so many years. And part of that, and maybe one of the biggest parts, is replacing Hollywood with a better system where you get actual movies that uplift you instead of try to destroy you. If you've seen a movie by Angel Studios, you're contributing to that parallel economy. And the good news is if you are going to get that amazing experience and watching a movie in the process, it's not like a donation of your time. Oh, I want to support the parallel economy. I'm going to watch this crappy movie. That's not what it is with Angel Studios, which is great. Brave the Dark. Glenn's seen it. You loved it, right, Glenn?

Stu Burguiere
Yeah, welcome to the, welcome to the Glenn Beck program. I'm going to be out, you know, putting things out here in the next few and I feel I'm in the same position I seem to always be in. You remember when I told you that there would be a caliphate and it took like five years for a caliphate. I told you that there were Marxist and they were going to try to destroy us and turn us into, into Europe and, and a one world order that took about 10 years to manifest before everybody really kind of saw it. I told you about the great reset when nobody knew what the great reset was. And that took about four years to be able to come out and to be destroyed. Luckily, because you paid attention, AGI is on the horizon. Most experts believe by 2020, end of 2026, okay, it will start being introduced. Many people believe this year, but they will hit full AGI by 2026, 2027. Once that happens, it's an, it's hours, minutes, days, months, years, we don't know. But what they're building now on what is that? Well, what's that program that they just introduced in Washington with Trump that's not deep sea.
Cash Patel
Oh, Stargate.
Stu Burguiere
Stargate, yeah. What they're building is the infrastructure and the goal is 2028. It's coming. And there are certain things that we must do as people and I will be covering those things in upcoming shows. We go to Washington next. This is Glenn Beck. Let me talk to you about Jace Medical. Los Angeles is in shambles. Section of size of San Francisco is burned to the ground. 25 people dead. 400,000 people without power. 180,000 have been forced to evacuate. Hardly any time to get anything from the house. Imagine, you know, not being able to get even your just your daily medications from your home because it's on fire and then you can't get them from the pharmacy that burned down. So I mean what do you, what do you do? Well, when there's an emergency, the people who are best prepared are the ones that don't have to worry about it. And that's the position I'd like to put you in with Jace case right now there. The Jace Case has five life saving antibiotics. Treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections. You'll have them in your home. They also just launched a program called Jace response that's partnering with Mercury One to provide free service for those who are impacted by the California wildfires. They're having their biggest sale ever, 10% off their Jace cases and kid cases now through January 31st. Get that, that sale right now and know that you are working with a company that's working with Mercury One. They're sending the, their doctors with medications and everything else whenever there is a disaster on the ground with Mercury One. Jace.com J A S E.com Enter the promo code BECK for that disc. It down the road where shadows hide Feel the dark on every side Stand your ground when times get dark Gotta face the dog and embrace the fire. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. So we have Kash Patel in front of senators today for his hearing yesterday rfk. Also Tulsi Gabbard who I think is in the least enviable position and I think it is critical that she is. She becomes our next dni. She has the experience. Listen, last hour I made a case for Tulsi Gabbard that you should hear. But are politics going to be played on this one with the Republicans? Because in committee it's a secret vote. So you won't know the person you voted for. How did they vote? You won't know. You'll just know the total number. But who was it that didn't want to change the DNI to somebody who, who's got a big flashlight and is gonna be looking for everything. Tristan justice is gonna be joining us here in a second. He wrote a story yesterday for the Federalist that I thought was really, really good. How the New York Times is using more anonymous terrorist sources for the latest on her. More intel from unnamed intel sources saying she's a danger to America. Gee, I wonder what that's all about. Kristen joins us here in 60 seconds.

Chip Roy
Well, how are you?
Stu Burguiere
Good. So I read your story yesterday in the Federalist and I thought it was, I think it tells everything people need to know about what Tulsi Gabbard is facing. Can you, can you relay it and your main points here for the audience?
Chip Roy
Yeah, of course. So the New York Times came out with a story that Tulsi Gabbard came under scrutiny from the Deep State intelligence apparatus for her overseas travels. And that includes intelligence that she apparently met with this leader of Hezbollah and that's based on two anonymous terror sources. And so this is really just kind of the same playbook that the Deep State has always used. Whenever there is a disruptor threatening to change the status quo, the Deep State can and will make up and do anything it really wants to topple that political opponent. It's the same thing that they do with Donald Trump. And now it's the same thing they're doing to Tulsi Gabbard as she threatens to take over the Deep State herself. As the Director of National Intelligence, I.
Stu Burguiere
Think she has the most dangerous job. I mean, the president, obviously. But when you get into the Deep State and intelligence, you've got spooks everywhere. And, you know, I wouldn't be, I wouldn't be sleeping well at night knowing that I was going in to take down black ops, take down things that nobody wants to have the light of day, come on. Even people in your own party. Would you agree with that assessment?
Chip Roy
Yeah. I mean, I think out of any of Trump's nominees, I think the one who probably has the most trouble sleeping at night is probably Tulsi Gabbard, I can't speak for her, but it's not too hard to imagine considering what she's up against. I mean, she is running as a disruptor of the status quo that's been in Washington for decades at this point. And so you saw how hard the Deep State went after Donald Trump for eight years. You know, it didn't stop once the Russiagate hoax fell apart in 2018 after the Mueller report. And so you hoax after hoax after hoax, and it culminating in 91 state and federal charges trying to bankrupt and imprison the D state's top political opponent. And so I think whenever these cabinet nominees, whenever these politicians raise their head and threaten to disrupt that regime in Washington, you know, the nail that sticks up gets knocked down. That's exactly what's happening against the Deep State.
Stu Burguiere
I mean, the Church Commission happened in the 70s and it exposed all kinds of things that America didn't understand what her job is. As I understand it, you know, the DNI was created after 9 11, so it is responsible for all of the agencies talking to each other. So she has access to all of the agencies. And Trump has said to her, I want you to go in and find all the bodies that have been buried. I want to find out exactly what's going on, what's corrupt, what's not, and we're going to shut it down. This is if people think, you know, well, what about the CIA? She's going to be the one leading. What, how many is it? How many agencies are there? Like 118? No, 18. Good. It's not 118. 18 intelligence agencies and bureaus. That's a lot.
Chip Roy
Can you imagine that there would be 118 agencies and bureaus?
Stu Burguiere
Yeah. Yes.
Chip Roy
So we've just created this massive government in Washington that's just so out of control. And one would think that, oh, Americans might be safer with someone like Tulsi Gabbard taking the role at DNI and making the dni, the intelligence community, do what it's supposed to do, and that is protect our national security with the highest standards while protecting the civil liberties of Americans. And so. But, you know, Tulsi is about to go into this hearing. It's probably going to be a hostile hearing, considering what she's up against. There should be no surprise about the fireworks that I think people are about to see here in a couple of moments. But I would just say this about Tulsi. She should not be going into this hearing guns blazing as the disruptor that she and reformer that she's campaigned on because she has to convince senators reluctant to reform that status quo that her top interest in running the nation's intelligence agencies is protecting our national security while safeguarding American civil liberties. If she goes in there guns blazing as a disruptor, she's not going to score points with the very senators she has to convince for their vote, especially with the secret vote like this one.
Stu Burguiere
So, Tristan, tell me about the Republicans that are on this committee. How many of them do you think are interested in reform?
Chip Roy
Well, she can't afford to lose a single vote on the committee or else she won't pass the committee. But it's not unprecedented for a nominee to be voted on with a full Senate vote while not passing the committee. And so one lawmaker that people are watching here is Senator Susan Collins, Maine. She had just voted against Trump's pick for the Department of Defense, Pete Hegseth, last week. And so she's shown she's not. She's never been too intimidated to reject nominees from President Trump. But there's also a number of other senators on the committee who are questionable. Senator Todd Young of Indiana, who did not support, are saying he is another key swing vote. So I think Collins and Young are the two primary senators to watch as this process continues to unfold.
Stu Burguiere
Are we going to find out? Because it's my understanding, dni, the committee vote is always a secret vote. You'll know the number, but you won't know who voted what, which I think is an abomination. Are we going to have that vote out in the open, do you know?
Chip Roy
Well, I would certainly hope it's going to be public and transparent, though. I think Americans deserve that, especially after an election where the that President Trump was given such a mandate. Right. I think his nominees should enjoy that same mandate, unless something abjectly disqualifying it should keep them from a cabinet position. Democrats have obviously picked their battles. Some of the other nominees made it through no problem. Sean Duffy at Transportation, looks like Doug Burgum is going to be confirmed. And some of these other nominees have gone through with very little drama. They've obviously honed in on, unsurprisingly, the two nominees who were former Democrats prior to this last election, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And Tulsi Gabbard. So it seems one of their biggest offenses to Democrats has been leading the party in the first place. So it's a little surprise that Democrats would hone in on these two in particular.
Stu Burguiere
Right. So let's talk about the other nominations. How do you think RFK did yesterday.
Chip Roy
Well, Robert F. Kennedy as Big Pharma and Big Food's chief antagonist, it's no surprise he went into another hostile hearing yet.
Stu Burguiere
My gosh, it was insane. It was insane.
Chip Roy
But I do think there was some surprise as to how hostile Democrats were in that hearing yesterday. I mean, it was that the hostility was near unanimous among every Democrat on that panel. And I think there was some, at least some hope from the Trump transition team and the Kennedy's team that they might pull a single Democrat or two. But I think those hopes probably faded right from the get go when the first thing that Ron Wyden did once they opened up the question period, was enter into the Congressional Record a letter sent from Kennedy's cousin Caroline Kennedy, the former ambassador to Australia, with filled with personal hysterical attacks that Robert F. Kennedy has predators as pets and he's putting chickens in the blender to feed to the rape. I mean, the fact that the Democrat ranking member on the Senate Finance Committee would enter a letter full of personal attacks from a family member said, all you need is to know about the rest, how the rest of those three and a half hours went for Democrats.
Stu Burguiere
And Kennedy did he, is he going to make it, do you think?
Chip Roy
I think Kennedy's up in the air. I think Republicans largely showed that they're not too willing to resist Trump's wish for this pick for help and human services. I think if Republicans are going to reject Trump's pick on any of these nominees, it's probably going to be Tulsi Gabbard after they oppose some of them. Opposed Pete Hegseth, the forces, Collins, McCalcie and McConnell. But I'm not sure Kennedy's a sure thing. And I don't think Kennedy's team thinks he's a sure confirmation vote either. So I think a lot hinges on this next hearing here in a couple moments with the Senate Health Committee.
Stu Burguiere
Tell me about Kash Patel.
Chip Roy
Well, Kash Patel is running up against the same apparatus as Tulsi Gabbard. Of course, he hasn't faced the same level of attacks with anonymous sources coming out and leaking to the New York Times with these terrorists or claim that he met with these leaders overseas, which.
Stu Burguiere
Is no pictures of him with Hitler yet. So let's go.
Chip Roy
But Cash Patel, he's been a conservative media personality for the past four years. He's blown the whistle on some of the lies in the January 6 committee claiming that he was formerly the chief of staff at the Department of Defense at the end of Trump's first term. And he blew the whistle on. No, Trump did actually demand 10,000 National Guard troops, Democrats, both within the Department of Defense and running Washington, D.C. and running House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's staff, that rebukes the president's request at every opportunity they had. And so Cash Patel, Democrats, and probably some Republicans would prefer someone more in the mold of Christopher Wray, who's perfectly willing to weaponize the agency to prosecute political dissidents. And I think it's. It's the. Cash Patel also has to do what Tulsi has to do today, and that is convince reluctant senators that his top priority is returning the FBI to its intended purpose, which is to keep Americans safe while protecting civil liberties.
Stu Burguiere
Tristan, thank you. I'm a big fan of your writing and thank you for being on the program. I appreciate it.
Chip Roy
Thank you for having me.
Stu Burguiere
You bet. The Federalist national correspondent Tristan Justin Cash Patel is delivering his opening statements right now. Can we just listen to just a little bit of cash?
Glenn Beck
Security is at threat both internally and externally. The FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Stu Burguiere
And the Department of Justice where I.
Glenn Beck
Served play a pivotal role in securing our freedoms and our safeties for American citizens. If confirmed as the next FBI director, I, I will remain focused on the.
Stu Burguiere
FBI's core mission, that is to investigate fully wherever there is a constitutional factual.
Glenn Beck
Basis to do so and to never make a prosecutorial decision that is solely the providence of the Department of Justice and the Attorney General. For the first eight years after law school, I served as a public defender, first for Miami Dade county and later for the Southern District of Florida. During that time, I represented some pretty.
Stu Burguiere
Awful human beings charged with some pretty heinous crimes.
Glenn Beck
But what I learned there was a.
Stu Burguiere
Core value that has been enshrined in me since.
Glenn Beck
That due process must be provided without bias to all Americans. And if we cannot provide due process to the worst, then there can be.
Stu Burguiere
No due process for anyone and our constitutional republic. But I battled on that hill for that due process.
Glenn Beck
I would later serve in the Obama Justice Department as a terrorism prosecutor in the National Security Division, where we successfully contributed the prosecutions of terrorist organizations like Al Qaeda, Al Shabaab, and others. I was honored to receive the 2017 Assistant Attorney General's Award from Loretta lynch for my work in helping the Ugandans bring members of Al Shabaab to justice for murdering 74 innocent people, including an American.
Stu Burguiere
It's amazing how these guys, I mean, you know, Loretta lynch gave him an award, how they are just going to turn him into a right wing monster in Just a few.
Cash Patel
And all their DEI stuff.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah.
Cash Patel
You know, Cash Patel. Not a white guy.
Stu Burguiere
No.
Cash Patel
But they will not care about that at all.
Stu Burguiere
No. Today? Nope. All right. When you walk out your front door in the morning, how you feeling? You feel like you know, throwing rocks at birds because you're in so much pain. Shut up.

The ag what is happening with the. The lawsuit against China and if you can get me that information before I talk to Chip Roy. Chip Roy is going to be on with me in about eight minutes and he has just introduced legislation that will bar people who are members of the Chinese Communist party or entities that are under its influence from buying any land in the U.S. why? We haven't done that a long time. Can you imagine if this former Soviet Union was buying up land, Russians were coming in and buying up land around our military bases. We're just so out of control on. On stupidity. I mean our stupidity is just off the charts.
Cash Patel
So we've mastered it.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah. So the attorney general in Missouri is suing China for Covid. China didn't even mount a defense. So if it comes out, you don't have to pressure China. The courts can just say start seizing their property here in America. So you can. Missouri is the first one to do it. They'll just start seizing all of the property of, you know, Chinese companies or members of the Chinese Communist Party. It, it, it's a pretty sweet idea. And I like that, along with, with what Chip Roy is suggesting. So he's coming up in just a second.
Cash Patel
When you say we're stupid.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, yeah.
Cash Patel
It's certainly true at times. And I don't know, I feel like we get to that point where we're trying to battle the decision as to whether it's just stupidity, whether it's ignorance, whether it is, I don't know, distaste for truth.
Stu Burguiere
I don't.
Cash Patel
I don't know what it is as a country. I think.
Stu Burguiere
I think it's a combination of all of it. I think there are some things that just fall through the cracks. Nobody's watching, nobody thinks about, you know, and then there's other stuff that is absolutely willful. Willful. I think the way China has been treated in this country is a result of people on both the left and the right taking money from China, our educational institutions taking money from China.
Cash Patel
Some of that's true, I think. Let me give you another example, maybe more pure, of what I'm thinking. The left is up in arms and blaming Donald Trump for this crash, this airplane crash yesterday, and they're now, this is again, I think, the first day on the job for Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary, and Donald Trump's speech replacing Pete Buttigieg, who had every single day was another story hero.
Stu Burguiere
He's thinking about running for president in 2028. I just want you to know.
Cash Patel
And Senator, Right. Is it Senator in Michigan, which is interesting.
Glenn Beck
I think it is, because I thought.
Cash Patel
He was from Indiana, but whatever. But I think he's in Michigan now.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Right.
Stu Burguiere
Maybe.
Cash Patel
I don't know anyway. But that is not. That's not a position I think you can take. You can't believe that. You know, you can't.
Stu Burguiere
No. If you're honest, you can't honestly believe.
Cash Patel
That Donald Trump is responsible for something. I mean, literally, like, they just took office. Like, they haven't even made changes yet. Like, most of the people who were there during Biden are still there.
Stu Burguiere
So it's not serious. All it is is they're just starting to build a fire. This is the first log they're putting. They haven't really even lit the match. They don't expect it to take. This is the first log that they're building on. See how much destruction this, this president has done by firing all of these people.
Cash Patel
Right.
Stu Burguiere
That's what's happening. This is just beginning to build the case that he's irresponsible, that we're losing too many good people. That's. That's what this is about. All right, back with Chip Roy next. This is Glenn Beck. All right, so somebody has to be the wet blanket, and it might as well be me. President Trump is not gonna be president forever. I'll give you a moment. Okay. Great changes are happening in our country right now. More is coming, but it's not like there's not gonna be bad government getting into office again in the future. I. Hopefully it is. I hopeful. I'm hopeful that it is 12 years away, but it might be four years away. You have to prepare for your financial future. One of the best ways I know is to consider investing in a portion of your portfolio. Not all of it, but like 10% into precious metals like gold. You have to be prepared for what could happen.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Congressman Chip Roy is with us. Hello, Chip. How are you, Glenn?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I'm doing great. How are you, brother?
Stu Burguiere
I'm good. I think people are pretty optimistic on what's going on, but you're in the belly of the beast. How's it feel to you inside the beast?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Well, I mean, putting aside, obviously, our prayers for the people that, you know, suffered last night with that horrible incident in D.C. which, which hits close to home to those of us who fly on that route all the time.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
But you know, what we're seeing out of this administration over the last now almost two weeks.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I mean, it seems like it's only been about 10 days. Right. Has been extraordinary in terms of reversing the damage from the Biden administration. Obviously, we have miles to go, but just seeing removal, seeing Tom home in action, we've removed, I think maybe 8 or 9,000. They're up to 1500 a day, kind of. Or 1800 a day was the last order. Watching what they're doing. I mean, you know, and frankly, there's been all this controversy about the OMB memo. That memo was awesome. It was righteous. The fact is, it was. It was the right thing to do. And that's why a court wanted to intervene and try to put an injunction in. But to say that we're gonna go and look at all of this funding, all of these grants, all of these NGOs, all of the money flowing around the world, and the liberals wanted to make it about, you know, things that it wasn't about Medicare and other things, because they're afraid. And now they've actually identified all these bad programs. But to answer your question, there's an energy and an enthusiasm. We fully support what the President is doing. God bless him for being energetic, for being, you know, optimistic, but also doing a lot of the things so far that he said he would do with respect to the border, with respect to a lot of these executive orders, the DEI stuff, school, school choice and defense installations. The nominees, you know, getting Pete Hegsett through. Bobby Kennedy had a great day yesterday. He's become a good friend of mine. Told me.
Stu Burguiere
I think he's gonna. You think he's gonna be confirmed?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I don't know. I'm the wrong person to ask about the current whip in the Senate. I would tell you that obviously there's a couple of people that we're worried about. Yeah, it's going to take a lot, a lot of work. If you're out there and listening, you need to make sure your senators know that we need the disrupted, the disruption that Bobby Kennedy represents. And look, Glenn, you and I don't agree with every single issue with Bobby.
Chip Roy
No.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
But you know, what he said yesterday was really instructive on the issue of life. Life. He said that he served at the pleasure of the President. He said that he would honor the commitments the President has made and that he agreed with him on a number of fronts. And that's what matters. Like Bobby knows that we need to change the game in town, that we cannot allow big insurance and big hospital and all of these big pharma and all these big companies and revolving doors of lobbyists to decide what's happening at the nih, the cdc, to cram us out, out on the cost of insurance and health care. That's why I released a report last week, the Case for Health Care Freedom. I encourage everybody to go to Roy House.gov to look at it. It's 48 pages that explains how we can reclaim our health care. But bottom line is Bobby's a good guy and he's going to go fight for. I think the people who need to be fought for. Tulsi needs to be confirmed. She's in the hearing today.
Stu Burguiere
I think she's in trouble. I think there's, you know, Stu and I were just talking about this. I think that, that, that Republicans right now are just not willing necessarily to take on Donald Trump at this point. But there are those who are the big war people, the big intel people that are on that committee. And I just, I, I just don't think they want those flashlights in that area. Am I wrong?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
No, Glenn, you're right. And I might say here a moment, I've got a personal point of personal privilege that, you know, there's been some arrows directed at me for some of my positions about what I'm trying to do to hold the line on spending. And it's all related. You know, I just talked about big healthcare and what Bobby Kennedy's trying to do, and hopefully we can get him through Tulsi and, you know, the effort to unwind this stranglehold, the deep state intelligence and the massive defense industrial complex has on the town. Those guys try to move the needle in their favor no matter what with spending. And that's part of the big fight we're having right now. When it comes to reconciliation, when it comes to discretionary spending, all of that's related. And we got to remember who the enemy is. And the enemy is the swamp. You know, and somebody, they always ask me in interviews, it's, well, there's this tension between you and Trump because the media wants to create this false narrative. But the truth is not really any tension there. There's tension between me and the swat. And the swamp tries to do their games, to play their games to get in a position of power. So right now, President Trump is the power. So the swamp in town wants to figure out whatever they got to do to keep their money flowing to their big contractors and to keep the big industrial defense industrial complex in the entire town. The reason the richest counties in the world all around Washington, D.C. is because of that. And they know that this four years, they've just got to survive. And they don't care if it's Democrat or Republican, Glenn, they just got to survive. And then they get to keep doing what they do. We've got to have transformative change on spending, on health care, on border on freedom, on dei. The President's doing it. Question is whether Congress will step up to do it, too.
Stu Burguiere
I will tell you with Cash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard and all of, really almost everybody that he has nominated to these big positions, you're just not going to be able to keep up with the amount of change that is coming. Because I think these guys are all dead serious and know the problems and they're dead serious about fixing them.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I think that's right. I mean, I certainly saw that in Pete Hegseth. I saw it in his first day on the job after confirmation. I see that in Cash Pot, what he wants to do to root out all the corruption and the tyrannical power activities of the FBI and the Department of Justice, which desperately needs to be done. Pam Bondi, again, Tulsi with intelligence. I agree with you. The long knives are out for Tulsi and we've got to try to get her through. But again, understand the importance of what we're talking about. Glenn, would you and I four years ago have believed that we would be talking about how much we need to defend Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard?
Stu Burguiere
No, no.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
But these are two people that I've actually become friends with. You know, Tulsi has a home near Austin. I talked to her regularly. I mean, she's been a little off the grid the last few weeks, but, you know, we're genuinely friends. I've come to know Bobby and work with him and his team and Cali means these are people who get what time it is in America and that we need a fundamental change. And I'm going to go to the map for them. I'm going to go to map for the President, but I am also going to go to the mat to cut spending. And that's where. That's where I've got some, some fighting to do on my own side over on the House.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah. Talk to me about the bill that you just introduced to protect American land from the Communist Chinese Party.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Sure, of course, Glenn. I appreciate it. About four years ago, seeing where that was all headed, I jumped out and introduced legislation to restrict and ban. Ban the Chinese Communist Party or anybody affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party or Chinese foreign nationals from owning land in America. I don't think we should just focus on farmland. Yes, it's horrific that we let them buy farmland. Yes, I think it's horrific that we let them buy land near military bases, but we shouldn't just limit it to that. My legislation would come through and say, guys, why are we letting the ChiComs own any American land?
Stu Burguiere
Yeah.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
And for that matter, Glenn, I'm asking the question now why do we let any foreign nationals own American land? It's Americans soil. Like even our friends and our allies. I have concerns about buying up our dirt so. Because they may not be our allies one day. So I think we need to really look at that. I reintroduced the bill again. This is the bill that I've had now for a couple of congresses, the Securing America's Land from Foreign Interference act and the HR809. It's a, it's a good piece of legislation. I'm going to try to move it or similar measures. You know, on the farm bill we can restrict farm ownership but I think we ought to go big and we ought to be bold about what we're trying to do to make sure that look, if not determine own American land.
Stu Burguiere
In 1939 we would have gotten rid of it. There's no way the Soviet Union would have owned an outhouse in America and had that not taken away from them. You know, I don't know if you know what's going on in Missouri, but the attorney general there has sued China for its, its, its acts of mass murder in with, with COVID and the, the rulings coming out in a couple of weeks and if they win they're, they're going to be able to seize a lot of Chinese land and I mean that's another way to get it. But they'll have the right just to seize it.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Well, this is definitely the kind of stuff we must do. And, and importantly this is a national security interest from food supply to and beyond just owning land. Glenn, what about our meatpacking facility?
Stu Burguiere
I know.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
What about other.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, and they've got anything to do with food should not be overseas. I don't care what country. I mean our meatpacking plants, two out of the three, maybe all three now are owned by foreign countries.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
And, and to be clear, other things like medicine, remember what was happening in the wake of COVID and are concerned about the supply chains of China and then oh, we can't get this and that and the other. And obviously there were a lot of problems with COVID and our reaction to it, but it really highlighted wait a minute, we need to have that industrial capacity here. By the way, this is why the president is correct about what he's trying to do to force change to get more American based manufacturing production here. I think he's right to be talking about tariffs. Those raise questions about what that does to the economy and you know, we had to give a $40 billion check, I think, to farmers five years ago during the, you know, early rounds of tariffs. So we got to think about how you do it. But we've got to restructure. We're in the middle of a restructuring, both politically, but the American people are awake post Covid. They're awake because of President Trump. And we're now all moving the needle forward again. I'll reiterate, we need the Republican Congress to have even a quarter of the backbone that the president is demonstrating and to lead. And we've got to do what we said we would do. And that can't just be do another tax bill and don't cut spending. Otherwise we will never get deficits under control. And Americans will be taxed through inflation and taxed because we're spending money we don't have. And the president will be fighting his own Congress, who's funding the very bureaucrats he's trying to stop.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
So we've got to back him up. And that's what I'm trying to do in Congress.
Stu Burguiere
I will tell you that. You know, you, you, you look at everything that is, is happening right now. This is the biggest chain. You know, Barack Obama said right before he was elected, we're five days away from the fundamental transformation of America. That's where we are again. We are in it right now. He is fundamentally changing. But if we don't, if he does this all by executive order, then it's not permanent. Then it's not permanent. And we, the country, no country. Country can afford the massive swings back and forth every four to eight years. It has to go, it has to go through Congress.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Yeah, that is so important, Glenn. We have to back him up and come in with the permanent change because this is, this is a transformative moment, but only if we cement them in place. If we continue to have deficit spending, which is where Republicans are currently heading it, then we've got that tax on the American people, and you don't change it. If we don't get transformative health care reform, we're not, we're past the days of talking about repealing Obamacare. We need to have transformative vision for health care, doctors and patients, not insurance companies and government and corporate bureaucrats. We have a vision for that. Let's paint that picture and let's deliver. But you've got to have that transformative change or we're not going to get our country back. Because we can't. You can't expect that the Democrats move the Goalposts all the way to the other side of the field. And the President, through executive orders, move it 20 yards back and Congress doesn't do anything to support it. Well, then when the Democrats get the ball again, they're ready to score. We've got to change the field, right? Get that field position back and move in the other direction for freedom, limited government, Constitution, making sure we're preserving and protecting rights and restoring that American dream. That the government isn't the solution. The American, American people are. That's the central theme to all of this, in my view.
Stu Burguiere
I have to tell you, I saw Johnson say what yesterday, day before that he thinks, you know, Congress, we're going to. Republicans are going to not only hold, but they'll grow in two years. And I thought, not if you're not doing stuff, dude. Not if you're just standing around letting him carry all the weight. You've got to be passing real change bills.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Yep. And look, let's say the first bill, and it was signed yesterday, the Lake and Riley act, was a good bill. Let me give you, give you one example of what matters. A year ago, the first bill they were talking about doing that, it didn't do a lot. Right. It was just focused on theft and ice detainers. We said the Freedom Caucus and conservative said, wait a minute. We, we fought to change the institution. We want to have an amendment. We want to change this and make it to where it includes the sue act, which allows states to sue the federal government at the federal government doesn't secure the border. They're like, man, well, so that's included now. So what the president signed because we fought for it is a much better bill. Mike Collins led and God bless him, we did that for Lake and Riley and their family. We now have a good bill. That's how it works. But we have to deliver and we've got to deliver on spending restraint. Yes, tax cuts, absolutely. But we can't not do math, Glenn. And our guys want to walk in there and say, yeah, cut, cut, cut on taxes on all four. It. I'd like to cut them all. Zero it out. But then you got to go over to the other side of the ledger and do your part. And if you're unwilling to do that, then you've got to answer to why you're for increasing the deficits. This is the struggle Republicans are having right now because if you fund these programs, then you're continuing to fund the demise of America.
Stu Burguiere
I think you need your funding. I think you need to have Javier Millet come up and talk to you guys because, I mean, he's done, done both. He's cut the size of government, the spending, and they are on a rocket ship right now. Just a rocket ship.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Absolutely, absolutely. Look, I think President Trump is, is taking the steps necessary to get us put on that rocket ship. But we got to get Congress to fully release the shackles and to lay out the groundwork for us to do it again. We've got, you know, right now we're bleeding $2 trillion a year in deficit, Glenn, $2 trillion. And right now interest payments are going up because we're borrowing more and interest rates are going up. So it's getting worse if we do nothing. It's getting worse if we then extend the tax cuts from 2017, which I want to do. We've got to do the math because you and I both know that $800 billion in child tax credits because that's how much it is. Those don't pay for themselves.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
So you got to come over here and say, wait a minute, we've got to reduce spending over here. Medicaid work requirements, who should oppose that? Right, you work. If you want to be on Medicaid, gotta have work requirements. So we've got things that would save $120 billion like ending the EV mandates, like we're getting rid of the student loans, but also other Medicaid reforms.
Stu Burguiere
I gotta cut you, I'm sorry, gotta cut you off. I got a network break and I'm running late. Thank you for everything you're doing. Thanks for spending some time. We'll have you on again to continue our conversation. First let me tell you about a American Financing. To, you know, to some people, you and I were just numbers, just names on a sheet, nothing more. Banks talking about credit card companies talking about the government. Faceless entities that want nothing more than your money and they don't really care what it's gonna do to you or your family. They don't care. You need people that see you as a person, as more than just a number, a face and a family. American Financing is that place if you're a homeowner and you wanna get out from underneath high interest debt at give them a call. Last year their salary based mortgage consultants helped customers save an average of 800amonth. Imagine giving yourself a ten thousand dollar raise. It's a heck of a way to start the New Year.

And we'll have more detail on what happened in Washington with the American Airlines flight as well. It's all coming up right here on The Glenn Beck Program. 888-727-BECK. 887-BECK.
Stu Burguiere
This is Glenn Becky. Down the road where shadows hide. Feel the dark on every side. Stand your ground when Times get dark. Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn beck program. In 60 seconds, I'm going to tell you a story you have never heard before. It is a story of David and Goliath. It is a story of a small tech firm here in America, started back in the 1990s, develops a chip, develops this technology that literally changes everything except the big tech company Goliath comes in with even a bigger giant, the United States government. The tech is stolen by this big tech company, it's then transferred to China and the government endorses it, covers it up. If this is allowed to stand. This is a story that has been in the works since the early 2000s. You've never heard this story. And my guess is I'm going to ask. But my guess is because we didn't have a government DOJ or anybody that you could trust until possibly now. 60 seconds, I'll tell you the full story. First, the easiest and cheapest way to set up home security is this. You place loaded mousetraps around your house every day. I saw this, you know, on a Christmas movie once with this little kid that was home by himself. You could do that, you know, if you're 7 or 8, SimpliSafe is probably better. State of the art home security 24, 7 monitoring plans for about a dollar a day. It's a great price when you think about it, especially that live guard protection, fast protect monitoring. They're using AI now. They can act on an alarm within five seconds, talk to the intruder. Most importantly, they can verify that an intruder is there and they can call police because just an alarm going off for police, they don't usually respond anymore in some of our bigger cities because they just go off all the time. You need the verification and Simply Safe can do that within five seconds. Visit SimpliSafe.com back. Claim 50% off a new system with professionally monitored plan in your first month is free. Just go to simplisafe.com beck simply safe.com Beck. There is no safe like Simplisafe. I want to introduce you to Jeffrey Parker. He's the CEO and chairman, chairman of Parker Vision. He has been sitting on this story for a long time. Am I correct on why you haven't said anything?
Glenn Beck
You are correct, Glenn.
Stu Burguiere
Okay, we are, we are at the beginning of seeing corruption exposed like never before. I think in America, this story, first of all, what did you invent that changed the world?
Glenn Beck
So we have a team I pulled together of inventors and we invented the connectivity technology that connects your smartphone to the cell phone tower, connects the wifi in your home to other devices. It's so small and so efficient that it's what's enabled the tiny little Bluetooth headset that goes in your ear.
Stu Burguiere
Wow.
Glenn Beck
Before ParkerVision, all these wireless connectivity products had big hundreds of components, a lot of size, low power, I mean, high power consumption, low battery life. And so we were able to put all that on a tiny little computer ch, about half the size of your little fingernail.
Stu Burguiere
What do you suppose that's worth now, that. That patent?
Glenn Beck
Oh, well, many, many, many, many billions, if not tens of billions of dollars.
Stu Burguiere
Okay. Because it's used by everybody now.
Glenn Beck
There is not a smartphone, a wi fi product, a Bluetooth product, even the radar in your automobile that doesn't use this technology.
Stu Burguiere
Okay? So you invented that, and you knew you had something big, and Qualcomm came to you and said, show us this new technology.
Glenn Beck
Well, actually, we were looking for a partner. So we approached them, and this is around 1999, 2000. They were at the time a much smaller company, but growing fast. They were an emerging tech giant, and they had the idea of connecting the Internet to your cell phone through their standard, which I thought was pretty, pretty brilliant. But the problem they had was that the radio transceiver that connected it all was like the size of a small shoebox. So while we were walking around with phones like the size of a candy bar, their phones were, like, much bigger, and the batteries would last 20 minutes. So everybody else, it's like going to.
Stu Burguiere
The old 1990s and 1980s cell phones, right?
Glenn Beck
So we said, oh, here is the connectivity technology that gives their cell phones the ability to compete and yet still have all the features that they were trying to bring to market. And when they saw our chip and tested it in a lab, they were crazy about it. They were like, how are you doing this?
Stu Burguiere
Right? So you signed NDAs, you went into negotiation with them.
Glenn Beck
And what happened, Glenn, even special NDAs, we were very concerned because we knew what a big breakthrough. I mean, we thought at the time, and today, even stronger feel. This was one of the biggest breakthroughs in wireless communications ever. I mean, for 100 years, we built wireless communications before this technology the same way, same circuits. So we made them not just sign NDAs. We made each individual who was going to get the disclosure how this technology worked Personally sign the NDAs. Where do you live? What's your phone number? We wanted to be able to track and keep it to a very Small group of people. And so they didn't like that at the beginning, but they eventually said, okay, we'll do it.
Stu Burguiere
Okay. And so you go into, they test it, they know how it works and when does the negotiation fall apart?
Glenn Beck
Well, here's what's crazy about it. After they saw the performance, they said, we would love to license this and put it in our chips, but they said we can't license it until we know how it works because we don't know what we're licensing. So we said, okay, you're under this special non disclosure, we'll do it. We go and we have an off site meeting with them with just the people in the company who had signed the NDAs and we disclose how we do this. And after the first hour of what was a couple day meeting, they stopped the meeting. And the guy who is the business development manager takes me out into a hallway and he says to me, wow, you're not going to believe what we thought you had put into that chip. And I said, what do you think we put into that chip? We thought you had built a micro machine. A micro machine. Glenn's like little tiny components that move in semiconductors. This is back like in 1999 now. And what he didn't contemplate was we had figured out how to do this using standard capacitors, switches, standard electronic components. I mean this technology could have been built in vacuum tubes 100 years earlier. That's how revolutionary it was. Didn't require new materials. So he was explaining, wow, we were so impressed with this. We sure it had to be something, something like outer space type technology.
Stu Burguiere
But now that we know that it's so easy to make.
Glenn Beck
Now that we know exactly. We had this licensing negotiation and every time we got to kind of an agreement point, they would change the deal. And this happened again and again almost over a year. And at some point I said, you know, I've done business with other companies, I've had relationships with large companies. We brought some of the first semiconductors to heating air conditioning controls and had a partnership with Carrier Corporation. And it was great, but this one didn't feel right. And so we went our separate ways. And after that it was a few years later, they come out with this new lineup of chips for smartphones and their market share was like around 30 some percent and it was actually falling. And they come out with these new chips and they are unbelievable in performance and low power consumption and fast data rates. And I'm looking at these going, what have they got in there now to get into a chip and reverse engineer it to see for sure is like looking for a needle in a haystack. And it can cost you many millions of dollars and you never find out. So we kind of just had to hold our breath and we thought, well, maybe they came with their own alternative technology. But we couldn't see anything else that they might be doing. A few years go by and a conference paper is published by one of their groups, their engineering groups, and they're bragging about a new cell phone chip, where they put an entire third generation cell phone on a tiny chip. The whole thing, like a cell phone on a chip, everything. And at the heart of that chip, by their own conference paper, is our technology.
Stu Burguiere
So what did you do then?
Glenn Beck
Well, I went to attorneys and I went to my patent attorney, who's been one of the most successful patent attorneys in the country, and I said, rob, we just discovered this. What do we do? And he goes, we're gonna. By the way, he sits on our board of directors. He's told me many times, he says, you know, in a patent attorney's career, if you get three real breakthroughs in a whole career, you're. He says, this is one of my. So he wanted to sit on our board of directors. So I go to him as a board member and a patent attorney, and he says, we're going to have to file a patent lawsuit. And I said, well, can't we just go and talk to him? And he's like, no, that would not be wise.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
So we filed a lawsuit in 2011, and all kinds of fireworks started then. I mean, it was crazy. But to cut to the quick, within two years, we were at trial. It was pretty efficient. And what happened in discovery was real eye opener. The law firm actually here in Dallas, Texas, firm called McCool Smith, known for handling a lot of patent litigations for patent holders. And about a year into the case, getting ready for trial, they call me up and they say, Jeff, you know, when we have a client come in, tell us a story, and they leave, we talk about it as a group and we say, gee, if half that story is true, it's probably a pretty amazing case. We just got the emails from discovery. Your entire story is in their emails. We have never seen anything like this.
Stu Burguiere
What does that mean, your entire. What you said was happening?
Glenn Beck
Well, Glenn, I was worried, you know, when we broke off the negotiation, went our separate ways. I had this suspicion, and my suspicion was founded. So we take it to their lab, they test it, they send around emails to Each other, oh, my gosh, we can make a better phone with their chips today than what we're currently shipping. These were prototypes. This is the holy grail of rf. We must get our hands on this technology. This is an email sent by the president of the company around to everybody. Then we start to see the engineers are a little upset because they've got these engineers being paid a lot of money to run a big R and D lab. And here's this little startup company and they're like, well, do we really want to give them free money? Jeez, quote, free money. So we walk in with one of the biggest advances in wireless, and their view is it's free money. By the way, we spent hundreds of millions to develop this. This wasn't like two guys in a garage. So anyway, ultimately, I saw in their emails where they're saying, hey, don't tell him how good this is. Keep him down. We want him to be, you know, we don't want to help him.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
And then ultimately they say, oh, don't tell him how much money we're going to make on these chips. And that's kind of what broke off the negotiations is they said to me, well, where do you get your royalty rate from? And I said, I calculated the money you're going to make on these chips. And they said, oh, no, you're assuming our margins are much higher than they really are. They're like half of that. Well, in the emails, you know what they said? Don't tell Jeff Parker. He thinks our margins are X percent. It's really even more than that. So, you know, this whole suspicion that I had is right in their emails.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
But the email, that's really the smoking gun is they took a few years to try to develop their own technology after we broke it off. And a few years later, there's two engineers on email talking and they're like, how are we going to do the next generation chip? We've got to keep our company, you know, moving in the right direction. And they say, you know what, let's just go back and look at the ParkerVision technology.
Stu Burguiere
And you have that in writing. You have those.
Glenn Beck
These are the emails that the jury saw in our first case.
Stu Burguiere
Okay? So the jury hears this. They come back united on a verdict.
Glenn Beck
Unanimous.
Stu Burguiere
Unanimous. Qualcomm has done wrong, has got to pay you.
Glenn Beck
Yes.
Stu Burguiere
The judge comes out and says that.
Glenn Beck
Yes.
Stu Burguiere
But then something happens with the Obama administration and Eric Holder gets involved. Hang on, we'll pick up that part of the story in just a second. First, let me tell you about rough greens. Melanie writes in that she was very skeptical, skeptical, skeptical about trying rough greens with her little dog. She said, I was sure my dog wouldn't eat it. I was really wrong. My dog loves rough greens. And now he only eats the food that I put rough greens on my dog too. He has so much more energy than he used to. Thank you so much. This exactly what I felt about Uno. He wouldn't eat. I put rough greens on it. He loves it now. And we saw a direct correlation between feeding him that and his energy level and his just overall health. Improve your pet's coat digestion and energy and have fewer vet bills in 2025. Get the Jump Start trial bag now. $20 free. It's normal. $20 free. You get it for free. You just pay for shipping. If you use the promo code, Glenn, put in your pets food what your pet's food has been missing all along. Rough Greens.com Rough Greens.com use the promo code, Glenn. Rough greens. So good your pet will ask for it by name. 10 seconds. Station ID. I can't. I can't imagine what your life has been like for the last 10 years sitting on this story, waiting for an opportunity for justice to be done. So the judge comes out and says, Qualcomm's gotta have to make amends here and pay. We're gonna come out in a couple of weeks with the judgment on that. The jury was in Lockstein app. Qualcomm has stolen your technology. And then what happens?
Glenn Beck
So the Judge tells both ParkerVision and Qualcomm, you guys need to get together and make my job easy. Tell me what should the ongoing royalty be? So go off how much you have to pay for each unit that you use for the future use. And by the way, get it to me within 30 days. There was a sense of urgency. He wanted to close the case. Well, nine days after we were asked to do that, there's a fundraiser at the chairman of the board of Qualcomm's home. President Obama is the chief speaker, the lead speaker at that fundraiser. By the way, the chairman of the board of Qualcomm has been a longtime supporter of President Obama, going way back. And eight, nine days after that fundraiser, there's a visit to ParkerVision's website. How do I know that? For years and years we've used a product called Leadlander, which is a service you subscribe to, and they look at all your visitors and we use it for marketing.
Stu Burguiere
Right?
Glenn Beck
Oh, this person's interested. Let's call them up. Maybe they want to do something. Well, I go on my computer like I do every day, and I'm going through the visitors and I see Qualcomm visited. Well, that's interesting. They visited a second time. Huh, that's unusual. They visited a third time. That's really unusual. And Executive Office of the President of the United States. And I paused and I'm like, what? And you can click on that visit and see what did they look at? And we had a lot of things to look at on our website. Products, charities, we sponsored technologies. Only looked at one thing. Patent litigation against Qualcomm. That was it.
Stu Burguiere
Wow. Okay.
Glenn Beck
Four weeks later, the judge has his order entered. And you could have knocked me over with a feather when 7:30 on a Monday morning, I get a phone call from someone who says, jeff, why? Why is our stock price dropping out of the sky? And I go, it is. I mean, this market isn't even open. And he says, I think it has something to do with the judge's order. And I go online and I look at the order, and he has reversed the jury verdict and thrown the case out. I did not see that coming. Our litigators did not see that coming. When we left that courthouse after being told to negotiate an ongoing royalty and that courthouse was packed with people.
Stu Burguiere
What was his reason for doing that? What did he say?
Glenn Beck
Basically, he decided after the fact, after the jury's gone, everybody's gone. He decided that there was a term in our patent claim that needed to be defined, and it needed to be defined in the only way it could be defined, which, by the way, is completely unsupported by the patent. And I'll explain that in a second. In the only possible way that would read the infringement right out of the case. He basically decided that something called a capacitor, which is one of the components used in our technology, would perform down conversion from a radio signal to the data. Glenn, without getting too technical, capacitors can't down convert. It's physically not possible. And so that's how he did it. And of course, Qualcomm had in their papers written to him, which is all, by the way, attorney argument. They never even put up a witness at trial on why they don't infringe. So here we had, on our side of the justice scale, the patents, the emails, the expert testimony that we gave from our expert. I mean, there was loaded with information for the jury, and on their side was attorney argument. That was it.
Stu Burguiere
So how did. How do you think this went? Down. Do you have evidence of how this went down, you know, from the visit from the White House to the judge?
Glenn Beck
Well, look, all we know are the facts of the White House visit.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
The previous fundraiser, about a week before that.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
But then we started looking more carefully at our lead line and we found something else that we had missed and that was a visit by the Department of Justice. And we thought, huh, Department of Justice. And then we started doing a deeper dive and we came to realize they hadn't visited just once. They had visited again and again and again and again. And not on every visit, but on many of the visits on the same day Qualcomm was visiting and the same number of pages was looked at.
Stu Burguiere
So it's like they're having a conference call.
Glenn Beck
It's like they're having a conversation. From about two or three months before the jury trial until a couple years ago, there are 37 visits by the Department of Justice. 37 visits.
Stu Burguiere
So the story gets even more twisted in a second and much more obvious when a firm in Washington, D.C. a lobbying firm that Eric Holder worked at and works at, now gets involved. We'll talk about that and how you can help on this next. This is Glenn Beck.

I'm going to spend a few more minutes with Jeffrey Parker. He is from ParkerVision. He is the CEO and chairman and he's been telling us a story that is absolutely amazing. I mean it is, it's game changing technology that this little firm invented, Qualcomm, according to him and according to a jury, stole that technology, use that technology, gave that technology over in China and never paid him. Judge Then after the jury verdict came back back, he said, okay, you guys got to work out a deal. And then a few weeks later, after Obama met with Qualcomm and you got the DOJ involved, suddenly the judge flips. Here's a little snippet of a video that was released this morning at 7:30 Central Time, just right before the market opened, explaining what's going on. It's called Against Giants. Listen, we're explaining to him we're going.
Glenn Beck
To have a new chip that's going to have this amazing level of performance, this radio signal that we're putting into this tiny little circuit board with a chip on this board that's like half the size of your little fingernail. A radio signal, when it goes from let's say a cell phone tower to your phone doesn't show up in great condition. There's all kinds of noise that has been accumulated along the way. So we've got this noisy signal going in and out. The other side of this chip is coming beautiful data bits, ones and zeros. We see this technology as being the enabling technology for wireless communication. What we didn't see was that it would be stolen. Never in my wildest imagination did I ever see that coming.
Stu Burguiere
There was a company that I didn't know anything about called Quality Qualcomm. If you look at history, almost all innovations come from small companies. And when big tech gets a hold of it, they're just out of the picture. We had this off site meeting. They came out of that meeting very, very excited. When they explained what they were doing, I go, man, that sounds a lot like what this engineer had described to me.
Glenn Beck
David looked at it and said, wow, they're using our stuff.
Stu Burguiere
And then came time to get lawyers involved to say, okay, we believe that Qualcomm was infringing.
Glenn Beck
We filed the lawsuit in 2011. In about two years we were at trial.
Stu Burguiere
And so this first trial after we filed the lawsuit was Pretty quick. We were there for two weeks, and we received a unanimous jury verdict. They found in favor of Parker Vision.
Glenn Beck
And we ended up getting the ninth largest jury verdict. Everybody leaves the courthouse excited. There's going to be an ongoing royalty. The judge is going in our direction. Away we go to the next steps. The judge enters his final order, reverses the jury verdict, and throws the case out. What happened between those two points?
Stu Burguiere
What happened between those two points is the Obama administration, it appears. And now let me bring Eric Holder into this, because the DOJ keeps going to. Your website, is checking on all of this right after the fundraiser with Qualcomm and Barack Obama. And. And he comes from a firm in Washington that actually represents Qualcomm, correct?
Glenn Beck
Yes, yes. Well, one of the largest lobbying firms in Washington is the law firm of Covington and Burling. Qualcomm has been one of their largest customers for a long time. And the Attorney General of the United States under Obama comes from Covington and Burlington. It's Eric Holder. And then when Eric Holder retires from the government, he goes back to Covington and Burling, where he is to this day. So we have visits when Eric Holder is Attorney General. They start and they continue on for years and years. Candidly, up until the time I filed a Freedom of Information act request to ask, number one, who from the White House was visiting our website. Who. We know the computer's inside the White House, but we don't know exactly whose computer. It's different DOJ sites that come to our website, but many of the days Qualcomm is on the website and they're looking at the same number of pages. So we wanted to know, is there some collaboration going on here? Is Qualcomm and the DOJ talking about ParkerVision for some reason? If so, we'd like to know what that's all about. You know, I don't get an opportunity to have special access.
Stu Burguiere
Right.
Glenn Beck
So we never got that FOIA request.
Stu Burguiere
Never produced it.
Glenn Beck
Never produced it, no. We were told different stories. One party who tried to help us with the FOIA said that they told them they lost it. An attorney told me, you can't.
Stu Burguiere
My dog ate my homework.
Glenn Beck
You can't lose a foia. You get a case number, can't be lost. Another, another party told me, oh, you were supposed to give them more information and you didn't do it. So they closed the case. I mean, it's excuse after excuse. And candidly, when I've watched other people within our own government try to get their FOIAs fulfilled, people who are sitting members of Congress and they can't get them filled. I'm saying, well, how am I going to get mine done?
Stu Burguiere
Well, the reason why you haven't heard this story at home is because he's been doing all of this with a very hostile government and things are changing. And, you know, I would ask. I know Pam, and I know a lot of the people are now going to be in charge of this stuff. And I'm going to reach out personally. If you happen to know anybody in the administration, have them look at this. All you have to do is go to Against Underscore giants on X, just search for it on X or Instagram. They're going to release several of these videos making the entire case. This needs to be investigated. This needs to be opened. This is. Why is this important? Just beyond you and your little company, why is this important?
Glenn Beck
Look, Glenn, the news this week was about how China now has come out with AI that's now leading our AI that's better than our AI. A lot of questions where they got it, how they got it. But here's the deal.
Stu Burguiere
Huge.
Glenn Beck
A lot of big tech companies went to China initially to get cheap manufacturing labor. But then the Chinese Communist Party said, no, no, if you want to do business in China, you got to bring your engineers. You have to set up shop to.
Stu Burguiere
Develop products here, and you have to show us how it is made.
Glenn Beck
You must turn over your intellectual property.
Stu Burguiere
Correct.
Glenn Beck
Look, you can't make these kinds of chips without our technology. Huawei, Qualcomm just acknowledged in their own report a month or two ago, now has their own 5G chipset. They don't need a single chip from the West. How did Huawei come to develop their own chips? Well, I can tell you how. If you look at LinkedIn, you'll find engineers who worked in Qualcomm facilities in China and other places are now working at Huawei. I found an engineer just the other day who moved from Qualcomm in the exact space of our technology. Radio frequency transceivers is now at Huawei and Hisilicon, which is their semiconductor company. So of course, our intellectual property is moving to places that we don't want it to exist. There's a story out in a Taiwanese magazine called Digitimes. I don't know if it's accurate, but it claims that Qualcomm has 5000 R&D engineers in China.
Stu Burguiere
This is a cheap labor. That's intellectual labor.
Glenn Beck
Yeah. We're not just shipping off our Manufacturing jobs. We're shipping off off our ideas. And how do you protect those ideas if you hand them over?
Stu Burguiere
This is, you know, I've been talking about this for a few days now, and it's been a theme of mine for probably 30 years about what's coming with AGI and ASI, which is absolutely game changer. People do not have any idea that by 2030 you won't recognize anything. You may not even understand the solutions that are being developed every single day, day for your life. And it is so important that we own that, that we're in charge of it. I don't even trust us with it, quite honestly. But if. If you don't have the right people in charge of it, if, God forbid, it goes to China, we're toast.
Glenn Beck
Well, listen, you have a good right to be worried. If our large tech companies, big tech, are willing to take these kinds of intellectual property overseas and put them in China, India, Taiwan, where we have no control, you can only imagine what could happen. And if they get ahead of us in this race, we're in big trouble.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, people are comparing it to the space race. That's not even. That's baby stuff compared to what this is. I mean, it was a big accomplishment, but that changed the world in many ways. This is the Manhattan Project on massive steroids.
Glenn Beck
Glenn. The other area of our economy that a lot of people don't really understand. Many of the biggest innovations ever, in fact, I'd say most don't come from giant tech companies. They come from individual innovators and small companies. And our government is failing those companies. Yes, that is a story that needs to get out there. Because if. Look, China has a very robust startup economy right now. This is why they're beating us. We have to reinvigorate that. You can't reinvigorate that. When you take the Parker visions of the world and you demonstrate your patents are worthless, we're not going to defend them. The patent office itself has become hostile to patent holders through a whole special patent court that was set up during the Obama administration.
Stu Burguiere
I remember it.
Glenn Beck
I won't go into that detail.
Stu Burguiere
I know it.
Glenn Beck
And then, last but not least, we let big tech companies crush these little emerging monopolies. These monopolies crush these emerging companies. And you know what the consequence is? Nothing. Nothing. You get to spend yourself into oblivion and litigation. And even if you win, which we did, then somehow, some way, you lose.
Stu Burguiere
Yeah, it's. I will tell you that, you know, the reason why America is America is because of Ben Franklin, he was an inventor. Thomas Jefferson was an inventor. They developed the patent system, said these big corporations could not come in and crush you and just take it. It was your property, your intellectual property. That's why we, we raced ahead of everyone, because the individual who had an idea could make a better mousetrap and, and actually see the gain from it. It wasn't taken by the state or by a lord or a lady or whoever. We've crushed that now. If we don't clear up all of this garbage, all of this corruption in our doj, in all of our government, we are going to lose. And you're right. I think it's stu. Do you Remember? It's like 80% of all jobs in a, in a down economy are, are created by small companies. You don't have an economy, at least in America, without all of these small companies. And they are, they're on their heels right now. We have to protect them in any way that we can. By the way, one last thing on this. This is exactly what Eisenhower talked about in his farewell address. In his farewell address, he said, you know, there's a vast industrial, military industrial complex. That's not all he warned about. He warned about a vast education complex as well. He diagnosed exactly what we're in right now. But he said, there will come a time if we allow the government to get out of control, where all inventors, all ideas will come from government or educational laboratories. And the small guy who just has an idea in his garage will not be able to compete or keep his ideas. We're there. That's why this matters. I want you to find this information. I want you to call your congressman, and we are going to, to make sure this gets in front of Pam Bondi and everybody else, because this is a really big deal. We have to have small inventors. You can find out more@ParkerVision.com you can go to Twitter or Instagram and just search for against underscore giants and find out all of the information. We will talk again.
Glenn Beck
Thank you for having me.
Stu Burguiere
Thank you. Jeffrey Parker Parker Vision CEO and Chairman. All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor. Garrett lives in South Carolina. He's a listener to this program. Just a few years ago, he hurt his back, took a serious turn in the wrong direction. For months, he could barely get around. He was beginning to become really desperate. And then he heard me talking about Relief Factor. He was skeptical. I was skeptical as well. For several months, he didn't try it. I got, I understand that. I didn't. I only tried it because my wife said we, I mean, we were running commercial on Blaze for relief factor. Didn't faze me. I wasn't going to try it because it's all natural and that's never going to work. Oh boy, was I wrong. My wife said she wouldn't listen to me whine anymore unless I took relief factor and then just wrote it off as something that doesn't work. Great. Try it. Relief factor, a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation. It's all natural. Over a million people have tried relief factors. Quick start kit. 70% of them go on to order it again month after month, month. So make this year the year of feeling good and living great. Just try it. Like I said, it doesn't work for everybody. About 70%. It's worth the 20 bucks to try it to see if you can get out of pain. The three week quick start 1995. Less than a dollar a day. Call 1-800-the-4-Relief 800 for relief relieffactor.com There you have it, the truth stripped down like a fence post in a prairie storm. Glenn Beck returns after this. So as I was telling you about what happened at ParkerVision, Stu has been monitoring the president's press conference. He, I mean, every, everybody will accept Fox is saying that, you know, Trump is blaming DEI without any evidence. That's not exactly what he said, right? He said it could be, but we don't know yet.
Cash Patel
He sort of listed the possible reasons that this could have occurred.
Stu Burguiere
Terrorism.
Cash Patel
I don't know if he listed terrorism. I know there's been some speculation initially on that, but I, I don't think that's what happened here. But it's one of those situations where they're going to come after him, they're going to attack him and try to make him look bad. But at the end of the day, it is a long standing problem that there have been a lot of contributing factors to this documentary that I did. Countdown to the Next Aviation disaster. It's up on YouTube. That's on my Twitter feed as well. Well, you go through this. I talked to a guy who was an air traffic controller for 30, 35 years and he was talking about all the problems. He's documented them over a long period of time. All these problems. Just think about it this way. DEI doesn't necessarily mean you're hiring someone who's incompetent, who is a person of color per se. Could be, but also could just be someone who's absolutely competent. But if you aren't hiring white people who are also competent, you wind up with a problem of being understaffed. I talked to a guy who got a perfect score, a perfect score on the test to become an air traffic controller. But they added a second test, which was a biographical test, which was questions about his race and questions about his history in certain school subjects and things like this. And you'd think, okay, well, school subjects might have some relevance.
Stu Burguiere
No, it's the opposite.
Cash Patel
It's the opposite. If you do well in science, you got docked points on this because they were trying to push out all of the standard people who were going for this role. We lost a lot of competent people over a long period of time.
Stu Burguiere
Well, I have to tell you, Trump used to own an airline. Yeah. He knows this business. And, you know, I trust him more on this than I do the reporter from ABC News. I'm just saying this is part of the reason why he was elected. Believe me, we'll get to the bottom of it, and it will be fixed. This is Glenn Beck.
Podcast: The Glenn Beck Program
Host: Glenn Beck
Guests: Representative Chip Roy & Jeff Parker
Release Date: January 30, 2025
Network: Blaze Podcast Network
The episode opens with a discussion about a tragic plane crash in Washington D.C., specifically at Reagan National Airport. Glenn Beck expresses his condolences and highlights systemic issues within the U.S. air traffic control system.
Stu Burguiere references a Blaze original documentary titled "Countdown to the Next Aviation Disaster," which delves into the dangers plaguing air traffic control towers.
The conversation shifts to concerns about the integrity of the U.S. intelligence agencies. Glenn Beck criticizes the agencies for allegedly turning against American citizens and becoming political tools rather than protectors.
Beck advocates for Tulsi Gabbard's confirmation as the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), portraying her as a reformer capable of restoring integrity to the agencies.
Representative Chip Roy supports this view, emphasizing the Deep State's attempt to undermine political disruptors.
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to discussing the rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence, particularly Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). Glenn Beck paints a vivid scenario of how ASI could impact humanity, either as an ally that solves global issues or as a threat that sees humans as obstacles.
Stu Burguiere echoes these concerns, stressing the importance of having the right people in charge to steer AI development responsibly.
Jeff Parker, CEO and Chairman of ParkerVision, shares his experience suing Qualcomm for allegedly stealing his company's proprietary technology. He details the legal battle, including a unanimous jury verdict in his favor that was later overturned, raising suspicions of governmental interference.
Glenn Beck highlights the mysterious involvement of the Department of Justice and the Obama administration, suggesting corruption influenced the case's outcome.
ParkerVision's case serves as a cautionary tale about small innovators facing off against large tech corporations with governmental support.
The episode covers ongoing nomination hearings, particularly focusing on Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as potential cabinet members. Both face intense scrutiny and opposition from Democrats, with Rep. Chip Roy and Jeff Parker defending their qualifications and the challenges posed by the Deep State.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discusses his legislative efforts to protect American land from foreign ownership, especially targeting the Chinese Communist Party.
Glenn Beck urges listeners to take action by contacting their senators to support nominees like Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., emphasizing the importance of safeguarding American innovation and national security.
The episode concludes with a reaffirmation of the need for transformative change in government spending, healthcare, and protection of civil liberties to preserve the American dream.
Glenn Beck [07:38]: "The intelligence community has turned inward, censoring dissent and manipulating public perception."
Chip Roy [49:02]: "When there is a disruptor threatening to change the status quo, the Deep State can and will make up anything to topple that political opponent."
Jeff Parker [91:04]: "The jury found unanimously in our favor, but then the judge reversed the verdict without just cause."
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. [75:16]: "We shouldn't focus only on farmland; my legislation aims to prevent any foreign nationals affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party from owning American land."
Stu Burguiere [117:47]: "By 2030, AGI and ASI will change everything. If they're not in the right hands, we're in serious trouble."
In this episode of The Glenn Beck Program, Glenn Beck and his guests delve into pressing issues of government corruption, national security, and the existential threats posed by rapid AI advancements. The discussions highlight the struggle of small innovators against corporate and governmental overreach, advocating for nominees like Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead critical intelligence and legislative reforms. The episode serves as a call to action for listeners to engage in safeguarding America's technological and political integrity.
