This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. I want to introduce you to America's Dr. Frankenstein. We know him as the Ever affable, ever, ever humble. Dr. Fauci, I don't know if you saw the. The diary that was released. His diary. He's going to come and testify in front of Congress. And he's kind of in a rough place because now he had diary. We, we have all of these facts that are all documented. Now, we know he perjured himself, but he can't be prosecuted for any of that unless you want to take on the Biden auto pin, and that auto pin will fight you to the death. So we don't know if, if you can do anything with this unless he perjures himself on Wednesday. And I think that's what Rand Paul is going for. But just to get you in the mood, we want to start with that. We also have more on Iran. Let's. Hey, everybody. Anybody who had World War 3 on their bingo card, you might be able to put a little chip on that one because now we have Ukraine bombing Iranian ships. Can we. Could you guys please stay out of it, please? But we'll tell you more about that coming up in just a minute. Stand by. First, let me tell you about super sure paid for by Super Sure Insurance Agency, llc, a licensed insurance agency. Business insurance is one of those things that, you know if you. If you don't get it right the first time, you can really regret it for a long time. Usually nothing happens. You pay your premiums, you file the paperwork anyway, never think about it again. But the day you actually need that coverage is the day you find out whether that policy was put together properly or whether something important really got missed. And that's why it's important to work with people who take the time to understand your business before they start recommending coverage. Instead of pushing a one size fits all policy, super sure pairs you with a dedicated advisor who learns about your business, helps identify the risks, and make sure you have coverage that actually fits. The right business insurance makes all the difference in the world. And right now, you can. Go to supersure.com beck get a full report on your current policies. No obligation. Find out if you're overinsured, underinsured, or somewhere in between. Go to supersure.com beck one super agency, one powerful platform, and all your policies in one place. Go to supersure.com Beck supersure.com Beck well, let me say hello to our visitor for the week, Jason Buttrill, who is up here at the ranch. Hello, Jason. Hello, Glenn. How are hot. Yeah, it is hot up here.
B
This is ridiculous.
A
Yeah, I know, I know. We didn't have any Snow up in the Rocky Mountains or had very little snow. It's a thing of the past, you know, anyway. But we had very little snow, very little water, and now it is boiling hot. You know, It's a. It's 100 degrees up here in the mountains, which is highly unusual. And it was what, 102. 102.
B
Salt Lake City. 102. I thought you come to the north to get away from that.
A
No, it's the death. People don't understand Salt Lake City. They always just think it's. Those are mountains near Salt Lake City. Those are mountains. But Salt Lake is a desert. It's a desert, you know, that's why it kills me whenever they say, we're going to put all of the. We're going to put all of these. These data centers in Utah because, oh, plentiful water. No, it's a desert.
B
I don't care what it is. This is stupid.
A
Yeah, stupid. So anyway, I want to get an update from you on what happened. I'm very concerned on the Ukrainian involvement now, but we'll get into that. Also, I got a note from the president this weekend I have to tell you about. And. But I want to start with the Fauci thing. If you don't like Foushee, you're not going to be disappointed. I'm not going to do anything that is going to make you like him. If you do like him, you might be disappointed because he's really, truly an egomaniac monster. Uh, there is a story out now. His diary has just been released, and if you read his. Read his diary, it's. It's not really the best. Shoot. Did I lose that stupid diary? Where is that diary now? Do you have in front of you.
B
Which one?
A
The diary with the quotes in his diary.
C
Yeah.
A
Okay, give me some of the quotes of the diary. I just. I just lost it.
B
So on January 26, 2020, Fauci writes in his diary. Now we know the market was not the source. So he's talking about the Wuhan, you know, wet market where they were, you know, cooking up all that amazing bat soup.
A
Yeah.
B
Because it's natural origin. So it started in, you know, in the animals there and spread from the market. So we were told. Yeah, but this one clearly says, now we know the market was not the source, it was the amplifier. So not exactly what we were hearing.
A
The amplifier. Wait a minute. What do you mean, the amplifier?
B
So I think what he's talking about there is. That's where it just kind of went on steroids and started spreading all over the place.
A
Yeah, because the front door of the lab is right there at the wet market. That's why. Yeah, Literally like a football. You know what kills me is remember when we did this special on this and we. We showed that they. They had a lockdown at the laboratory, I think it was in November. And then they went in and they completely did redid all of the venting and the duct work and everything. They had a complete emergency cleaning and re ventilation of that a month before we saw the first outbreak. And yet doctors that were sick from there. And you know, Fauci knew at that point. By December, Fauci knew.
C
Yeah.
B
There's additional stuff to Just on that entry alone. And I'm reading from another summary of this. So privately in his diaries, Fauci was admitting that basically he no longer believed that the wet market was the origin. You know, and you had to be basically an idiot because Wuhan, you know, Institute of Virology is right there.
A
But a week later, he knew all of the things that we proved six months into this.
B
Right.
A
Anyway, go ahead.
B
And anyone that disagreed with natural origin was an idiot and deserves to be shamed. Basically.
A
Yes.
B
So a week later, he convenes a call with 12 scientists. You want to know how many of them thought that it was, you know, natural origin spillover from animals? Out of those 12, only two. Only two. The rest of them are like, dude, doc, it's kind of. This is looking fishy here. But that is not what we heard. The consensus was from all the academic papers was that, no, this is natural origin. You know, if you think this is an outbreak.
A
Yeah.
B
Gotta be an idiot.
A
Yeah. And it was. It was made to look like there were only two in the room that didn't think that, remember? Yeah, because we reported it at the time and it was made to look like two walked into that room to disagree with what the other 11 and saying, no, no, no, no. And it was the consensus, but apparently that's not it. Now again, all of this is now according to his own diary. This is not speculation on. These are the words in his own diary. All right, what else?
B
But also to that, why would you be concerned about this not being natural origin? Why would you be concerned if this could possibly been manipulated in a lab? If you're in the United States government with control of all these funds that are going out all over the world to possibly support things like gain of function research, why would this concern you so much? Maybe because you were the one releasing some of these funds to places like China. Maybe, maybe that would look bad.
A
So when you get into this now, we're going to show you some of the things he said. Because he's an out of control egomaniac. When you get into this part, understand this is the main thing you have to know about this guy, and here's why. He is the wrong kind of. He has no humility in him at all. And so when we had a law that said you can't do this, he felt he was right, and so he was going to do it anyway. And come hell or high water, he would find a way to do it. And then he covered it all up. So the guy who is literally, I believe, responsible for millions of dead, one guy. And it's Fauci and anyone else that was in on this project with him. But Fauci knew it, and he just felt it was too important to let the law stop them. So he found a way around it. Now, if you think that's bad, listen to some of the things that he said in his diary about his fame. It's grotesque.
B
Yeah, there. I mean, if. If you kind of. If you even just leave out some of his personal phone calls with people like Barbra Streisand and how he's convincing her to get an MRNA vaccine. Oh, and another little anecdote about how he's teaching Barbra Streisand how to use the Alexa device. He's also saying things like this quote, one person said that Tyra Banks was sexy, but that I was even more sexy than she was.
A
Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.
C
Yes.
A
You know, he should start another 1200 dead this morning. But, you know, they said that Tyra Banks was sexy, but I'm even more.
B
But on the bright side, the bright
A
side, I'm the sexiest man alive. I mean, it's just. It's horrible.
B
And following up with that quote, I kind of feel like I should say, dear Diary quote, Dear Diary, press still hot and heavy about me. Multiple stories per day, directly or indirectly involving me.
A
Oh, yes. Oh, my God. It goes on.
B
Multiple entries like this where he talks
A
about, he talks about. And, you know, they got a signing phone call today. They asked me to be on Dancing on the with the Stars. Can you maybe pay attention to the millions that are dying? I found some other ones here, Jason, that, you know, the press doesn't have yet. Deaths just crossed 70,000. Tragic, of course. But on a lighter note, a woman in line in the pharmacy recognized Me and started crying, not from the virus, but because she was meeting me. I signed her N95. She said, I'll never wash it again.
C
See?
A
April 9th. Another 1800 dead today. Tough, huh? But the Washington Post just called me the most trusted man in America. I'm thinking about having that embroidered on my lab coat. August 4th. Another 1200 lives lost overnight. Devastating. But on the upside, my Wikipedia page just hit a million views in 24 hours. I've asked the NIH communications team to start tracking Foushee mentions per death. It seems important for historical records. I mean, the guy could have written those when you read his diary. He could have written those. He was that out of touch. Do we have the InStyle magazine cover?
B
It's on my computer now.
A
Okay, well, I don't think people can see your computer. I tell you what, why don't you just come over and lean over his shoulder?
B
I think they can bring it up.
A
Can you bring it up? Anyway, so there's a picture of. There's a picture of Fauci, and he is on in style, the COVID And he's got his. His sunglasses on. He's sitting by the pool. And it's grotesque. When you see it is absolutely grotesque. Yeah.
B
And then. And now reading these diaries and knowing how infatuated he was with all the attention and fame. The look on his face right there,
A
Just look at that.
B
Makes me nauseous.
A
Look at that. I have to tell you, he's coming to Washington to testify in front of Congress. Rand Paul is going to be there. It should be interesting. Now, here's the thing. He can't incriminate himself because he is already pardoned for everything he did in the last 10 years. So there's nothing that they can get him on. He could go on and say, yeah, five years ago, you know, I was doing X, Y, and Z. I have nothing to do with it now. And there's. There's nothing anybody can do about it. However, my guess is, and I could be wrong, my guess is he's going to plead the fifth. And here's why this is a problem. He can't incriminate himself for past crimes. So if he pleads the fifth, that would be covering a new crime. And what's going to happen is Rand Paul is going to ask him all of exactly the same questions that he asked the last time or the last 10 times he testified. And Fauci was very specific on how he answered everything. Well, we now have all of the evidence that he was lying, but he's covered because of Joe Biden and the auto pin pardoning him. So what Rand Paul is trying to do is get him to say, is that. Do you still stand by that? Yes. Can you tell me. I'm going to ask you the same question. Can you tell me, were you doing any of these things? He would have to answer no. If he answers yes, that's a new crime. Okay. Or if he answers no and stays considered assistant, it's a new crime. And so what he's going to say is, I think I plead the Fifth. Because he either has to and he's too much of an ego. He either has to say, no, I was lying to you, and that he won't get prosecuted for that. I was lying to you. Nope, that's not true. I don't. I don't believe that he won't go to jail for that. However, he has too much of an ego to say he was lying. And so the only thing his attorneys are going to say to him is then, good, just plead the Fifth. Plead the Fifth. If he pleads the Fifth, we know he was lying because that's the only reason why you would do it, because that's the only new crime.
B
I'm curious about the gain of function question that I know Senator Paul is going to ask him. I feel like that would be the easiest one to where you've got a lot of data to back up the fact that this, they were funding what looks like game function over there.
A
The reason I say looks like change the definition.
B
There's so many ways you could weasel out of that, right?
A
No, no, no, no. If you define it the way Rand Paul has and the way the United States always has. But when Fauci testified, if you remember right, the NIH went in and changed the definition. After his testimony, they changed the definition to match what he said. So, no, you know, the only game you're playing is the game he set up.
B
Okay. So now I'm less optimistic than I was before in the insider segment about why. Well, the way you're describing it right, there sounds like there are ways that they can be like, well, based off this definition.
A
Oh, that's what he's going to do. Because that's what he did towards the end when they were like, that's not. That's not even the definition. That's the official definition. I don't know how you define it, but that's how we define it. And that was the game he played. The only chance I think I'd like to have Rand Paul on because he's been thinking about it. I think the only way you really get him here is if he perjures himself, because that's a new crime. But I think he's too smart to perjure himself. He would listen to his attorneys and plead the fifth, but he is so arrogant. That's his Achilles heel. In his arrogance, it could be his downfall. Uh, all right, let me tell you about our sponsor. It's relief factor. Back in the good old days, you know, if you're living with pain, you know, nothing a little whiskey couldn't fix. Ah, those were the days. But then alcoholics had to, you know, come along and ruin it for everybody. Sorry about that. Anyway, thankfully these days, there's an option that will kick pain where it counts. And it isn't terrible for you. Not that whiskey is terrible for you, even though it is. The option is relief factor, but it's before you burn everything down in your life and before you eventually die from it. It's a great deal of fun. Well, until the jail starts and then deliver anyway. The goal is to deal with what's causing your pain. Relief factor. It focuses on supporting your body's response to inflammation. And it once it does that, you start to feel better. I've told you my story before. My hands were in constant pain. It was Tanya that suggested I try relief factor. And I did. And the difference was so noticeable, but I was still so stubborn. I'm like, oh, this isn't making a difference. I just feel better. I stopped taking it. That is common. I found the letters that we get. It's common. People are stubborn, just like me, and they stop taking it. And then the pain comes rushing back. They're like, okay, okay, I give. I'm in. Get three weeks, 1776. Just go to relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief. That's relieffactor.com 800, the number four relief 10 seconds station ID. So while we're here on Popular People, let's just talk about mom Donnie here for a second. There is an effort led by now the families of the nine, 11 victims, and they are demanding that mom Donnie does not show up or is not invited for the 25th anniversary of ground zero. There's no way he doesn't show up. There's no way. I mean, right? Just in his arrogance, he will show up. The family should plan on something. You know, just if he speaks or he shows up, the whole crowd should just turn around and face the other direction. I mean, that's the silent protest like that would speak volumes. And he trying to shut him down or anything else, because he's going to come and, you know, that should tell everybody, you know, something important. When the, when the families of nine, 11 get together and they're like, this guy is an insult to the memory of our loved ones. No, he can't be at our 25th anniversary. He shouldn't be there. That's saying something, don't you think? Is it just me that thinks that's a big deal? Like more people should pay attention to that?
B
Oh, no, it's a huge deal. And in the middle of all of that, he's calling for actively protests to hit the streets once Netanyahu gets into the United States. I can't remember the direct quote, but something about how protest as, you know, the bedrock or something along those lines of New Yorkers. You got to know, they know.
A
He knows, he knows exactly what he's, what he's doing.
B
And I know you're going to talk about this later in the show, but I mean, the rampant anti Semitism that's breaking out all over the world, all over Europe, Canada, everywhere.
A
Weird. It's almost like somebody predicted that that's
B
what, and that's kind of like the attitude of, of, of journalists and leftists all over the world. Like, I don't, I don't understand it. Like, why is this happening?
A
Go back and listen to my shows in 2008, 9 and 10. Gosh, I made it very, very clear what's causing this and what is causing this is the collectivism of socialism. You know, we are in a collective. And whenever you experience as a people collectivism, Marxism, anti Semitism goes right with it. Why? That has nothing to do with Jews. It has everything to do with the God that the Jews gave the world. That empowers people and looks at them as individuals, not the collective. You've got to kill that God if you want to live in your socialist, communist, collectivist utopia more in a minute. You know, you think you'd automatically know who the bad guys is in a confrontation until you're actually standing there watching two people scream at each other and you have absolutely no idea who started it. One guy says he was attacked, the other guy says he was defending himself. People are shouting, somebody takes a swing. The situation spiraling out of control looks like somebody's reaching for a weapon. You know, life doesn't come with a narrator telling you who the hero is. And that's why options are so important. The Burna is a less lethal self defense launcher. That gives you the ability to stop a threat without having to make some sort of life and death decision. You'd face that with a firearm.

So a couple of days ago, two police cruisers pulled over a billboard truck in Toronto. Not for speeding, not for a bad tail light. But officers were responding to a complaint about the message on the side of the truck being a hate crime. You want to hear the hate crime? Here was the message on the side of the truck. Women and girls deserve safety on the field, privacy and dignity in the locker room, and fairness on the podium. Then it claimed that males are competing in female sports. A website address and a call to sign a petition. That's it. That's the crime in Canada now. Police investigated. They didn't take any enforcement action. They let the truck drive away. Rebel News says this is the second time now in Toronto, police have gone over a truck with paid advertisement and the outcome doesn't change what happened because the investigation is the sentence. Remember, governments can make your life a living hell. Somebody made a phone call. Cruisers rolled. Officers stood on the pavement deciding whether the sentence about locker rooms was a criminal act. What does this mean? Well, if you're thinking about putting an advertisement up on the side of a truck, you're now risking the next police stop and that that cost gets paid no matter what the charge is. Okay, now you may disagree with the ad, that's fine. You might agree with it, that's fine. Think it's wrong about the science, wrong about the numbers, wrong about the old question. Fine. That's what you're supposed to do with an argument you think is bad. You beat it. Nobody was threatened. Nobody was told to go and do violence to anybody. A group of women brought advert or bought advertising space to make a claim about the rules of sports in this country. You know, that's an argument. And now it's, you know, over before it even begins. The First Amendment does not say Congress shall weigh the harm. It says Congress shall make no law. Five words. They're on. They're on walls in Washington D.C. not up in Canada. Canada guarantees freedom of expression as well. Now here's why this is so important. Because all of your socialist friends, all of the people who you know say the United States is no different than the rest, they'll all say Canada has freedom of speech. No, they have freedom of expression. Listen to this. It's section 2B of their charter. It's really clear. Section one comes first. Section one says every right in the document is subject to such reasonable limits as can be demonstratedly justified in a free and democratic society. Demonstrated by whom? A judge. When? After the complaint, after the investigation, after the lawyers, after the years. So you hold the right, but somebody else holds the ruler. Britain shows. Shows you where the ruler ends up. Times of London went to the police forces of England and Wales with freedom of information requests. They found 12,183 arrests in a single year under two communication statutes. Imagine that. I mean, Great Britain is not a large place. You mean people have no idea until you travel, you have no idea how big the United States is just in square footage. But also people, okay, 12,000 people in great Britain, that's sending a message, okay, that anything you say might be deemed grossly offensive, indecent, obscene or menacing. That's 33 people a day, up 58% from 2019. Now here's the number that tells you what the laws are actually for. The sentencing for those same offenses fell to 1,119. That's down from nearly 2,000 a decade earlier. So the arrests are way up, but the convictions are way down. Which means the arrest was never the. Was never the means to the conviction. The arrest was the product. Why, why, why is this happening? I'm going to tell you in about 30 minutes. There is a totally different view of what's going on that once you have it, I don't think you'll be able to unsee it. I'm going to give you a sneak glimpse of it today. I'm working on a special that I want to do and I want to just give you a glimpse of it here in a minute, but it explains everything. We take back to January 1965. Canadian government appointed a special committee on hate propaganda. It was chaired by Maxwell Cohen, that's the dean of one of their law schools, who later sat on the International Court of Justice, you know, the one that wants to now arrest Benjamin Netanyahu. On the panel was a law professor named Pierre Elliot Trudeau. Five years before, he'd be the Prime Minister signing the very provisions the committee recommended into the Criminal code. Now, these were not censors. By temperament, they had watched with living memory memory what organized propaganda had done to the Jews of Europe. And so they were watching neo Nazi material circulating in Ontario and Quebec. Everything always starts with a good reason. Their report said plainly free expression should in most cases take precedence over any limit placed on it. They were trying to draw a narrow line around the worst thing they had ever seen. And the line would not stay narrow because it never does. When you write laws whose trigger is offense grossly offensive, likely to be promoted, you know, to promote hatred, you have a. You've handled the definition of the crime and you've handed it to people who can call the police, and then you've handed it to the judge who gets to decide whether that's really what the law is talking about. The act is fixed. The feeling isn't. Sixty years later, the built the, the tool that was built to stop the Nazis is now stopping a truck about swim meets. This has happened in America. You know the story. It happened under the sedition act in 1798 by one of the guys who. I mean, John Adams started the Sedition act because he didn't like the fact that people were making fun of them. New Jersey, he was in Newark in New Jersey. And they greeted the president with a 16 gun salute inside a tavern on the route. A man named Luther Baldwin. He was a veteran of the Continental Army. He fought in the Revolutionary War. He said as the cannon sounded, one of his friends jokes that they were firing at Adams. Baldwin, who is drunk and happy about this, said he wouldn't care if they fired through the President's backside. Well, the tavern owner turned him in. Baldwin was indicted and convicted in federal court for speaking seditious words defaming the President of the United States. He was fined $150, a fortune to a guy who he. He was a garbage boat pilot and he was held in jail until he paid it, which was just a polite way of saying you're going to be held in jail in America under the Sedition act signed by a Founding Father, enforced by federal judges seven years after the Bill of Right. The first man prosecuted under that act was a sitting Congressman, Matthew Lyon. He was from Vermont. He got four months and $1,000 fine for writing that. Adams was drunk on pomp and power. Vermont reelected him in a landslide While he was sitting in jail. So on July 4, 1840, Independence Day, Congress passed Chapter 45, An act to Refund the fine imposed on Matthew Lyon long after he was dead. $1,060 9, $960.96, I think, plus interest. 42 years of interest. Because we were wrong. Because our own president got it wrong. A founding father got it wrong. And so they wrote a check to the man's grandchild. That's what a country looks like when it corrects itself. Not a press release. A line in the statute book with a dollar figure attached to it. And they say we'll never do this again. We've been there before, but we're watching this happen in country after country after country. It's happening in Canada, it's happening in England, it's happening in Europe. It's happening all over the world. I bring this up because we are not. We are not like any other country. Everybody wants to save democracy. Lets save democracy. Democracy is not voting. Any tyrant can hold a vote. Democracy is the fight before the vote. The tavern, the pamphlet, the truck driving down the street with something on the side of it that makes people really upset. You take that away and the ballot is just a receipt for a decision that was made somewhere else by someone else. The answer to a billboard you hate has never been a police cruiser. It's another billboard. Rent your own truck. We're the only country on earth that wrote that. No law can change that. And we used to mean it. Do we still mean it? I don't think most Americans have ever considered what it costs to get those words. Or what it would feel like to live just a few miles north and not have them. Ask Luther Baldwin. He knows exactly what it feels like. We can't allow that to happen in America. But we're getting so divided now. That's why we have to restore the actual principles of the nation. And that's going to be hard. But we do it by living them every single day. All right, more in a minute. Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. There's a difference between making a purchase and starting a relationship with a company. You know, most of the things you buy, you buy once. A hammer, a toaster, a shovel. Your cell phone company is different. You buy it every single month. And you trust them with your business month after month, year after year. So it's worth asking, who are they? Who are you in bed with? One of the reasons I like Patriot Mobile is they offer dependable wireless service in all three major networks. So you don't sacrifice the coverage that you already have to switch. You can keep your phone, keep your number, get us based customer support. They believe in the same foundational values that you and I do. That's what makes them different. And they don't just talk about those values. They actively support organizations that are working to defend those values. If you're gonna have a relationship with a company for years and years and years, make sure it makes sense to choose one that represents what you believe in. And that's what you get with Patriot mobile. Go to patriotmobile.com beck or call 972 Patriot. Use the promo code BECK. Get a free month of service.

I don't know who wrote these jokes for him, but they're absolutely brilliant. He had something to say. Well, I guess it was about the Iran war. Listen to this. We have it. Yes, Jason.
B
Oh, I can play for mine. Sure. There it is.
C
While I have all of the press here in one place, I have to say that we're having an amazing load of accomplishments that the media never talks about. For example, under my administration, a once feared and powerful regime that relentlessly attacked America has finally been toppled. Their former leaders have been removed and they're now being run by a gay dictator facing internal divisions. But I for one, wish Barry Weiss all the best at CBS News.
A
Listen to that reaction of the room. They don't know what to do. They don't know what to do. That is absolutely brilliant. Just brilliant. What was the other one that he.
B
Caitlyn Collins.
A
Yeah, Caitlyn Collins. Listen to this. This is for about CNN.
C
Learn their lesson. But I want to personally congratulate CNN's Caitlin Collins on receiving her award. It was all about me. It's a fake. She shouldn't get the award. It was a fake, but I didn't mind it. Katelyn, congratulations. But it was fake. There's no question about it. But she's a young, attractive woman. She never smiles. I said, caitlin, do you ever smile? Smile. You have a nice position. You're at CNN Fake News. You should be a happy person. So smile, Caitlin, just smile. But we attack. And I thought Caitlin had really made it big with a major new sponsorship, but then I informed her that it wasn't her on the Bud Light can. It was Dylan Mulvaney.
A
And listen, Dylan, no laughter. No laughter.
B
Can I Show you this. Can you show my screen again? He tweeted out this on true social media. Just put superposed her face on dilvalvadi.
A
So funny. So funny.
B
Oh, my God.
A
I gotta tell you, I, you know, it's insane. He is. He is. He got up and he did to that room what Don Imus did to the Clintons, but he did it to the whole room because he's not playing to the room. He was playing to us. He was playing to the American people, and he didn't care. Do you know how hard it is to stand in front of a whole group like that and do a joke, a good joke, and no one laughs?
B
Yeah, yeah. Did you see right when he started in on Kaitlan Collins? Wolf Blitzer image looked over and there was this other guy that was looking around. It reminded me of. Was it Ricky Gervais at the Oscars?
A
Yeah.
B
When they didn't really know what to do.
A
Yeah, for the.
B
For once, someone was criticizing them and
A
they were like, oh, oh, my gosh.
C
Good.
A
Good analogy. This was a Ricky Gervais kind of moment because it was really well written. Ricky, did you watch it? What did you think the. What did you think the message from this was? What. What did he just do? Well, I like how he, this evening pivoted from journalists patting themselves on the back, which there was a little bit of that to.
B
Actually.
A
No, we're going to devastate you.
C
The.
A
The real audience for this are conservatives and MAGA supporters across the country, not you insular nerds in D.C. well, you know, the president. I mean, this was part of the deal. They usually. You have a comedian come on and you tear the president apart, and then the president gets up and he responds and he tears the room apart. That's supposed to be. But they don't have a sense of humor when it comes to them. They don't laugh anymore. They have no sense of humor. They are the most important. It's. It is, honestly, it's the Fauci disease. They're the most important. When you question me, you're questioning truth. You're questioning me, you're questioning science. That's pretty much the same thing. You question cnn, you question us, you're questioning truth. And that was the mood in the room, and he questioned them a lot. Good job. Good job, President Trump. All right, more in a minute. Keeping yourself and your family safe means being prepared for situations that can, you know, put you or them in danger. It means being prepared for all the situations, you know, even those situations where deadly Force is not needed. In fact, it's a real problem. There are more of those than you think. And if you're a gun owner, it's unfortunately easy to think a gun will provide you all the safety it needs. But you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody. And I'm, I'm not in all situations, you know, but they can go bad fast. There is a tool for this. It's the burn a launcher.

The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Glenn Beck is our hello America. An insider wrote in on Friday and said, my daughter, she's 20, she, you know, works, she pays her own rent and she likes the President. But I don't know, I don't understand how to talk to her because she said, why does the president only seem to care about Iran when I can barely afford gas? And I think that is a valid question. So I want to take this hour and I want to explain what the President is doing. But I want to start in an unusual place and I want to explain something to you. You know, he just, the, the housing bill just passed, biggest housing bill in decades. Just became law and the President did not sign it. President doesn't have to sign it. By just leaving it on his desk. It automatically. Then after, you know, a few days, it becomes law. So now it is officially law. But I want to explain the good news, what it does and then the hidden side that I don't think anyone really truly understands. And it is the big problem that has to be fixed. And then I'm going to come back to the the insider whose daughter says, why isn't he fixing these things? I have a very different look on all of this. And we're going to begin in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Mercury One. Mercury One and the American journey Experience. What we're doing to try to carry the story of America into the future is remarkable. During the World cup, it was so inspiring to see people Coming from all over Europe and having their eyes open to the truth about the country. You rarely see that kind of enthusiasm about America from Americans, let alone Europeans. But maybe that's not an accident. Maybe. Maybe knowledge and understanding about America have been selectively edited out of our education and our lives. And without that true history, we don't have a future. So we have to preserve it. Like the ancient scriptures preserved for centuries in clay pots, the American Journey Experience is seeking to preserve American's history for the future. We're building a museum of over 100,000 artifacts, everything from Columbus to the space race. And we need your help to do it. Please join us@theamericanjourneyexperience.com Become a founding member of our sacred honor society. For $17.76 $0.76 a month, we have been given a gift. Please, let's use it. Join us. Become an underwriter of the American Journey Experience, a brand new museum that is going to be opening up next year. Help us. AmericanJourneyExperience.com do it now. Okay, so two weeks ago, the biggest housing bill in decades became law. The President never signed it, let it pass without him. And that way, you know, both parties wanted it. He didn't have to necessarily agree with it, but he didn't veto it, so it became law. Now here's the good thing. Here's what it does do. If you're a company and you own more than 350 single family homes, you are not allowed to buy any more of America's existing houses. Bars. Wall street is now barred from bidding against your daughter on a starter home. That is really good news. Since February, it's been working. Since February, the number of institutionally owned homes listed for sale has more than doubled. Big institutional landlords are all net sellers this year. That's good. That will bring down the price of housing. But now let's read the rest of the bill. And this is the part that no one explains to you. And I'm working on a show that will go into great detail, but it's 90 minutes and it's, it's pretty complex. But it's stuff that I'm just learning about now. And honestly, I told Jason last night as I was. Did you get a chance to read any of it last night? I told Jason last night, I said read it. It's not this, but it feels like we're on the road of something that gets people killed for exposing because it, it exposes the real game. Okay, so let me go back to this housing bill. There is an Exception for build to rent. So if a company builds a neighborhood of houses designed as rentals from the foundation up, it can own every last one of them. So America, American Homes for Rent now expects every dollar of its growth this year to come from new construction. The money didn't, didn't leave the landlord business. It walked through a door that Congress left open and it only took about 10 days. Now, we've been here before, and the best example in American history is a brick. The Volstead Act. You know what that is? January 1920. Do you remember what the Volstead act was? It made it a federal crime to manufacture, sell or transport alcohol. Okay. But it had a law to leave a door open for the farmer. You can't arrest a man for owning grapes. So it allowed a household to make a small amount of non intoxicating fruit juice at home. Well, overnight wine grapes were worthless. Napa was finished. Except somebody in California read that sentence about fruit juice and had an idea. Now listen to this. I did not know this about history. He took some wine grapes, skin, stems, pulp, all of them, dried them out and pressed them into a block the size of a pound of butter. It was a grape brick. Perfectly legal. It's juice. And on the package, printed in red, was a warning label. Do not dissolve this brick in a gallon of water. Do not add yeast, and do not leave it in a dark cupboard for 21 days because it will turn into wine. See what happened? The warning was a recipe. Now, everybody who wanted wine could buy that brick. And the recipe was in the warning label. Before Prohibition, a ton of grape concentrate sold for $9.50. By 1924, that brick was fetching $375. Okay, California vineyard acreage went up.
C
How?
A
How is that happening? The federal government outlawed wine, but it accidentally made grape farming the best business in the state. Prohibition did not stop Americans from drinking. It moved the profit from the winery to the cupboard.

Now
A
the anger in this country is earned. The living standards for middle class have gone flat while wealth at the top keeps compounding. People know something's rigged and they're right. And I've been saying this for a while, Republicans, you better get your ass in gear. Because the Democratic socialists, they have an answer for who rigged it. Billionaires. But that's not the rig. Let me show you the rig. Let's go back to housing. Let me picture in your head for a minute a highway, two lanes, same direction, same destination. On this highway, you're in the right lane, and that's the lane for money. You earn by working. And there's a toll booth every single mile. You don't even stop. It just comes out of your account before you ever feel it. You know, the. The federal, state, Social Security, Medicare, all that. Mile after mile after mile. Every time you drive your car, it just racks it up. Okay? The left lane is for money that comes from owning things. There are no booths in that lane. You only pay when you exit. So the man in the left lane, his thing is, don't ever exit. His money grows year after year after year, and nobody touches it because he hasn't sold anything. And when he needs the cash, he still doesn't exit. He goes to a bank and borrows against the car. Whatever he has that he has, you know, he's stored up and he's purchased. He goes and says to the bank, here, I've got this house, or I have this car, or I have whatever. Give me a loan against that. Well, a loan is an income, so there's no toll to that loan. So he's spending real dollars at full value, but he's not paying any tax. Then he dies. When his children take the wheel, the odometer resets to zero. 40 years of driving and nobody has ever paid a toll on it. Not him, not them, ever. Same highway, one lane metered by the mile and the other free. If you're patient. Now go to a home auction and watch two bidders on the same house, a family and a company. The same house, same price. May the best offer win. Who's going to win? The company is. Why? Why are they willing to pay so much more? Because this is what everybody was saying. They're coming in and they're buying all of these houses way above market price. How are they making any money? The auction was never against two bidders. One of them has a silent partner. The company writes a check for a new roof, and the partner covers a piece of it. A new furniture, new furnace, a piece of it. The insurance, the property manager, the interest on the loan, a piece of it. A piece of all of that is paid for by the partner. And when the company sells and buys another house, the partner tells the taxman to wait. You don't get any of that. The family doesn't get any of that. New roof comes out of your pocket. Every dollar. When you sell, you have to settle up. One of them is bidding with after tax money. The other is spending, you know, more than he brought. He's spending, he's got. He's not paying taxes on anything. The company wins Every time. Every single time. And the starter home disappears. And the people who are doing this, they're not evil. All they're doing is arithmetic. Now, that's not a moral failure of the buyer. It's a design feature of the tax code. You remember in 2016 when Hillary Clinton accused Donald Trump of paying little or nothing in federal income tax and he said, that makes me smart? She didn't have an answer because there isn't one. The rules he used were the rules her donor and her use every day. So the left says, wealth tax. Tax the gains before anybody sells anything. Okay, here's what this means at your kitchen table. Zillow says your house went up 8, $8,000 this year. You didn't sell it. You know, you didn't get 8 or $80,000, however much it went up. You have a house with the same leak in the same corner of the roof. And now the bill arrives and you have to find real money to pay the tax on imaginary money that you are supposedly making, but you didn't make. So it's a second toll booth on the highway where that. Where that one already had a problem and the other lane doesn't have that problem. And the right says, throw them out, throw them out. 1994, we threw them out. Republicans took Congress for the first time in 40 years. In 2010, the Tea Party threw the Democrats out again. 2016, populists running against both parties. 20, 20, out they go. Different waves, different parties, different promises. Yet our debt and our problems keep growing. Why? I'll tell you why in 60 seconds. Let me tell you first about our sponsor this half hour. Our sponsor is Z Factor. Ever notice how the world just starts to fall Apart right around 2am Sheets get hot, your mind gets loud and obnoxious. You know, this isn't can't fall asleep.

So I want you to see how this relates to the, the guy who said, my daughter is in her 20s. She works, she's trying to find an apartment, she buying food and gas. And she's like, why is Donald Trump spending all of this time overseas doing all these other things when you know the economy is on fire? Okay, before I get fully to that, I want you just to hear this analogy. Imagine the register at your store. You run a store and it comes up 200 short at close. Well, you fire the cashier, right? You hire somebody new. Then the next month it's $200 short. You fire that one. Why is everybody stealing? A third, a fourth, a fifth, everyone a different person, they're all stealing from you. But at some point you stop hiring and you look at the register. Okay, we're on our fifth cashier. Has anybody looked at the register? No one in this story is behaving badly. The wage earner works because the code rewards work. The wealthy man holds on because the code rewards him for holding. The politicians promise that, you know, we'll get them. We're going to get the rich, we're going to get the rich. But they never seem to get the rich. This problem never seems to go away. We keep having it. And the benefit is immediate to everybody except you. Water isn't malicious. It goes downhill. My father used to teach this to me all the time. Goes downhill. Your basement floods every spring. You don't convene a hearing about the water. You go outside and you look at the grade of the yard. That's the fix. Not new people in the same seats. New rules that bind whoever sits in those seats. Switzerland put a debt break in its constitution. Chile has a fiscal rule that has survived. Governments on the left and the right, our own states, live under balanced budget requirements. None of them got there by electing better people. They got there by binding the people they elected. So an arg A rule is only as strong as the willingness to keep it. And every one of those countries has suspended its rule. In an emergency, sooner or later, everything is an emergency. True, but a lock on the liquor cabinet was never going to stop a determined man. What it does is make him go get the key in front of his wife. There's no lock. There's no key. We're the wife going, what's happening here? Two weeks ago, Congress printed a very stern warning label on the side of the American housing market. And somewhere in a conference room this morning, somebody is looking at that bill and they're reading it as a recipe. Wait a minute. They just gave us a recipe on how we can legally make all this money. And so nothing's going to change
C
because
A
the system is flawed. And nobody wants to take on the system. No one will actually talk about the system. And that's what I want to. That's what I want to talk to you about here in the next 30 days or so. I want to talk to you about how this system is rigged, but not in the way you think it is, not in the way the socialists think it is. And if we actually want to make a difference, we have to take on that system. Now let me get back to what the. What the insider said. The insider said. I want to read it exactly that. My daughter, she's 20 and she's, you know, living out on her own, pays her own rent, and she likes the president. She voted for the president. But she's just asked me, why is the. Why does the president only seem to care about Iran when I can barely afford gas? This is the critical thing that no one is talking about in the media. We have talked about this. But let me give you another analogy for this. Think about your house. You're standing in water because a pipe has burst. So you patch it with tape, the water stops, everybody claps. Then the tape dries out and the basement floods again. That was the first term. What did he do? The basement was flooding. We needed jobs. We needed the economy turning around. So he knows the levers to push and pull. He can take out the tape and he can wrap the pipes and he can get water out of the basement so it's dry. But soon as he left, that tape popped open. And we're back into a worse situation because somebody wants that tape off. Okay? Now, here's the rule that you can take to the bank. And this is the problem with Congress right now. Anything one man can do with a pen, another man can undo with a pen. It has to be codified. So watch what he's doing now, because he can't get Congress to do anything, right? You seen Congress? The bill. Whoa. We did the big, beautiful bill. Yeah. He ought to practically break your arms for some reason. You won't do Things like the Save America Act. So he knows he can't get things done through Congress. He has to fix the system. So how are you going to fix the pipe? How are you going to make sure that you're not putting tape there? Because somebody can take the tape off. You have to re plumb the entire house. When I give you the rest of this analogy, I think you're going to see exactly what's happening and why we're not seeing the dramatic change in the economy that we had in the first term. First, so much damage was done because of COVID and because of Biden that the economy cannot bounce back as fast as it can. But he's also not trying to do that because that's tape. He has to spend his first two years re plumbing the entire house. And I'll show you exactly how he's doing that here in, in just a minute. So stand by for that. Also, I gotta tell you, and we'll get into this later, The painting that Mike Malm and I put together for the, for the president about his mother. I get a note from the president this weekend and for anybody who listens to this show, this will be one of the most satisfying moments of Glenn Beck program listening and Glenn Beck history. This note was the most satisfying thing of all time. And I'll explain that coming up in just a little while. Also, Jason Buttrill is with us. He is covering the insiders, but he's up at the ranch. We're going to continue to talk about Ukraine now getting involved in Iran coming up. First, let me tell you about American financing. NMLS 182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well qualified borrowers. Call 800-906-24440 for details about credit costs and terms. Okay. It's amazing how often we put our money on autopilot. You know, the bills come in, we pay them and after a while we stop asking whether they still make sense. It's especially true when it comes to your mortgage. And I get it. Mortgages feel complicated. There's paperwork, there's financial jargon. It's easy to assume it's probably not worth messing with. But that assumption could be costing you real money. That's why I like American financing. Their salary. Mortgage consultants take the time to look at your specific situation and help you understand what your options are. Maybe it's lowering your monthly payment. Maybe it's paying off high interest debt. That is so important. If you can get a loan off of something that you own and you have a great mortgage rate, you don't want to upset that. But if you can get a 6% mortgage rate on some of the, some of the stuff that you have in that house, the equity, why are you paying 25%? This is a no brainer and they can help you do this. It's got a whole new loan system that I think you really going to like. Call American Financing.net 800-906-24440. Do it. You know, most people will roll their eyes when they hear the President say, and he has said it over and over and over again, 18, 18 trillion. Is it? Trillion dollars. $18 trillion in investments, right? It's trillion, isn't it?
C
I don't know.
A
These numbers are all fake to me now.
B
Yeah, they are.
A
But I think it's 18 trillion. $18 trillion in investment. You know, Joe Biden, in four years he only had half a billion or half a trillion. And now I've got 18 trillion. And nobody's talking about it. Nobody's giving me credit. And you hear that? If you don't know what he's talking about, it just seems like, will he shut up about this? I'm struggling to make. What difference does that make? He's telling you what he's doing. So let me explain. I started the hour explaining. We got a note from an Insider. My daughter, 20, pays her own rent. She can't afford gas, she can barely afford food. And she's a fan of President Trump. And she's wondering why, why does he care more about Iran than, you know, helping me. What happened? He fixed the economy the first time, okay? I told you. Imagine your house, A pipe bursts and you can go down and the water is filling up. You got to stop it. So you put tape around it, okay? And the water stops. Now, if you're like me, that's where I stop. Because I have no skill in replacing the plumbing. I eventually call a plumber, but I run the risk of that tape drying out or somebody nefarious coming down and taking that tape off. And now my basement is flooded again. But because I wasn't paying attention, now my basement is flooded and it's much worse than it was. That's what happened in 2020. Covid and then Biden, the basement flooded because he was putting tape on. He was taking, he knew all the levers for the economy. I'm going to twitch this, this, this and this, okay? But it took him his first term. To do it. And he got it going. He realized that's just putting tape on this. Okay? The economy got good in the first term, but it was tape. So watch what he's doing now. Stuff that you think doesn't matter. Treaties, trade deals, pipelines. $18 trillion they're going to be building factories. Boring stuff. Stuff that's in the future. I don't want tape. But that's what we're asking for. I need something to fix this. Now, this stuff is not tape. This is copper pipe, okay? You want to rip out a factory in your own town, good luck. Nobody ever does it. Nobody does it. Once these factories start producing, that's the whole game. He's not just fixing the leak, he's repairing the. He is replacing the plumbing. And that's what he's actually doing. Now, her actual paycheck. She thinks the reason everything costs more is over there because it comes from over the ocean. That's not why everything costs more. It's not. Yes, with gasoline, but did you see? The price of. The price of oil has gone down. But the people who make the gasoline, they didn't go to. They'll bring it up the minute there's another bombing. They'll bring the price up, but they won't bring the price down. You know, at the pump, okay? When one thing get. Gets pricey gas, it's because ships are getting shot out at a very little, skinny little straight, okay? That's one bill going up and you fill it. Feel that? At the pump and nowhere else. All right? But when everything goes up in the same year, gas and eggs and rent and your car insurance, all of it, that's not the straight. No strai on earth is big enough to raise the price of eggs. That's the money problem. That's the dollars we printed that nothing was ever built to back up. Milton Freeman. I've been reading a lot of Milton Freeman lately. He said in six words, inflation is made in Washington, nowhere else. Now, that's actually good news if you think about it, because nobody has to win a war to bring the rent down. Somebody just has to stop printing money and then lighting it on fire. And here's why they won't. And this is the part I need you to remember. Friedman said there are four ways to spend money. You spend your own money on yourself and you're careful. You'll check the price, you'll check the quality, but you spend money, somebody else's money, on somebody else. You don't check either one, that last example, that's the federal budget.
C
Now,
A
we're great at talking to people who own things, houses and businesses and stock. As conservatives, we're great at talking about those people. But she's 20. She owns a car, probably 90,000 miles on it. She owns a phone. Her whole life is rent and gas and groceries and the roof over her head. And we don't have a plan. We have a statement from Milton Friedman. Then we act surprised when the other guy who's saying, I'm going to give you all kinds of free stuff, then we act surprised when that's winning. He's the only one who's called her by name. You want her vote? We have to earn it. Freeman had the answer. He said, quit waiting for the right people to get elected. You're going to wait forever. Make it so the wrong people find it profitable to do the next right thing. That's why I talked to you about the housing bill. What did they do? Congress put it in to give an incentive so people can buy and build houses to rent. Big businesses. They'll find it profitable to do that. So you're going to have Wall street firms owning all of the rental properties and eventually you're not going to like that. Mr. Potter is buying up the whole town. Yes, because it's profitable and it's not against the law. And he's being encouraged to do that. We have to make it so the wrong people find it profitable to do the right thing. So here's the whole thing. And hand it to your kids. And it doesn't mean anything now, but it is the beginning cornerstone. Your bill is real. What you're feeling is real. The tape is what failed you. The copper pipe is what he is putting in. Now. Look at the treaties, look at the investment to build factories. Look at. He just signed a deal to build an oil refinery here in America. We haven't built one since the 70s. He is doing things that are long term because he knows I can put tape on the pipe, but it's only going to last while I'm sitting here guarding the tape. The reason your money doesn't stretch is that it wasn't printed in Iran. It was printed here. The last thing on this, she told her dad, nobody's talking to her. She's right. So our job is to inform ourselves on the actual game and then make those politicians, make them talk to you and talk to her. But we have to change the game. And I think that's. I know that is what he's doing. He's changing the game. However, I Don't think it's being changed enough. Because, you know, this stuff comes down when you lack trust. You know, I've been really looking into socialism in Denmark. And if you're going to do socialism, and it's not even socialism, I can't even say that if you're going to have a huge safety net. I mean, if you define socialism as having a safety net, then we've been socialists since, you know, 1791. Denmark, they learned this lesson and they said, we're not going to penalize the rich, but we're also not going to make it. We're not going to let the rich have one set of rules and the people have another set of rules. Everybody has the same rules. Everybody has the same rules. That's when things will change. Everyone has the same rules. And it goes back to. Why socialism doesn't work is because it looks at a collective and then it takes groups of people and demonizes them and takes it from them until there's nothing left. Then they demonize another group and they take it from them. And eventually they get to you. What Denmark understood back in the 1990s is we want that big social net. We want that safety net. Because, you know, at least back then and up until recently, There's such homogeny in that society. Everybody pretty much agrees. And it's a tiny little country. And you can get away with that. You can get everybody on the same page. It's very hard to do that in the United States. But if that's what you want to do, that's what we should talk about. But then we have to address who's going to pay for that. And it can't be the rich. It has to be. You have to look at a former socialist nation that realized socialism is going to fail us. And we want. We're not. Denmark is not a nation that wanted to have communism. They knew what that was about. They knew what fascism was like. They didn't want any of that, but they wanted the big safety net. And so they were honest about it and said, okay, that doesn't work. So what will work? And they tried something else. And that does work for them. They can have the free market. They are free. It's easier to start a business there than it is here. It is easier for you to run your business there than it is here. They are more free. Business wise, they are more free than we are. That's insane. That's not socialism. What the government does is they make it easy for you to make money and then it taxes 60% so we can have the safety net. But again, even the safety net, they have safeguards, so nobody's stealing it. Did you see about Elon Omar's sister? Now we find out now that she was apparently part of this whole scheme of milking Minnesotans out of their money. She was part of the scheme of saying, yeah, we're, we're feeding all these children. They weren't Elon Omar. That stuff has to happen. I mean, sorry has to stop. We have to go after those people, whoever they are, left, right, center, doesn't matter. Whoever they are, they have to be jailed because we have to restore trust. If we're going to fix this, we have to have trust and we have to be honest about the system. Now, I know this is probably too esoteric for the show, but I'm putting a, I'm putting a special together and we're going to talk about it today when it'll run. But I want to show you this whole game and that's long term. Now what's short term? Your kids are being rounded up by socialists. So next hour, I'm going to show you a conversation. I'm going to demonstrate a conversation that you can have with your kids that's not going to get into an argument. Now that doesn't mean they're going to like it because you're not going to be arguing anything. You're only going to ask them questions. And they're all fair questions. Their anger level at your questions is going to tell you volumes. How lost are my children? Because these are honest questions. They have answers, but once they start answering it, they may not like the answer. And so they're going to feel trapped and they're going to feel like, see, you're just part of the problem. No, if they start to, and maybe you should even set it up with this. I just going to ask you questions and if they're not fair questions, if you don't think they're fair, let's have that conversation. Let's not get mad because I'm only asking you questions and I really want your answer. And it doesn't matter how you answer, but you have to answer. I'll give that to you here. Coming up in just a few minutes. Those are the kinds of conversations we have to have with our kids. And that's what we're trying to do on the Torch. Teach you all of these things.

Let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. There's moments when need becomes impossible to ignore, when the story reaches you and refuses to let go. Maybe it's a family huddling in a dark apartment without heat or air conditioning, or an elderly man trying to make a single bag of groceries last an entire week. For Jewish communities facing poverty or persecution, these moments are daily realities. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews steps in to make those realities theirs. With compassion and immediate help. They provide food boxes to families who would otherwise go without. They support the most vulnerable. The elderly, the displaced, the heartbroken. The heartbroken. The people who are just feeling like I'm totally alone. They let them know you're not. What makes the Fellowship extraordinary isn't what they give. It's how they give it. They treat every person not as a case number, but as an individual worthy of dignity and worth. And that approach has built a bridge between Christians and Jews that is rooted in something much higher than charity. It's rooted in shared humanity. Join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Just join in praying for peace of Jerusalem and the soldiers and the families and the civilians and the Christians that are trying to help.

What are the insiders saying about what I'm talking about here?
B
It's interesting. Yeah, a lot of them do have a lot of questions on it. Insider. Linda Louis said that something that's hard to explain is he is. Trump is retooling the entire system. But how do you. How do you explain that, though? The Republicans are not.
A
Which is no, because nobody. You know, this is, this is the thing. The, the press will not even look at what he's doing. They won't even consider that he is retooling the entire world. Presidents, prime ministers, kings, all over the world. They know exactly what he's doing and they're not happy about it because it's making America strong and they need a weak America. Okay, he's making it strong. He's rewriting everything we knew from 1945. Plus, that's all being gutted. We're laying new fiber optic lines in completely different ways that put America in the driver's seat. Why do you think when he's shutting down the Strait of Hormuz or he's doing this, they're immediately building all these pipelines so it kills that choke point. And then he killed the choke point that China was trying to get from us with the Panama Canal. He takes their choke point over in the Middle East. It's all about choke points he's redesigning. So you will not understand that what he's done until that $18 trillion in factory investment is actually built and running and those jobs. And we have factories that can make things from chips, quite honestly to artillery shells. We have to have factories to build things. And that's what he's doing. And that's long term. But nobody's looking. Nobody's looking at that. We are a factory fast food society and our press is disinterested. This year America celebrates its 250th birthday. Two and a half centuries, Americans have worked hard. We've built a life. We've sometimes owned a home that was truly ours. That's why it's so disturbing to learn that criminals don't have to break a window or kick a door in to come after that dream. All it takes is publicly available information, a forged signature and some paperwork filed in the right place. Suddenly you find yourself trying to prove that that home that was yours you bought and paid for it you worked hard to build equity in, is actually yours. That's why I want you to know about Home Title lock. They provide 24. 7 title monitoring. They'll send you an urgent alert if something suspicious appears on the title. And they have a 100% fraud restoration success rate. Wow. The Celebrate America's 250 home title lock is offering 25 off for the two years of the home title fraud protection.

Glam back is on. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Hello America. Welcome to. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We have a terrorist attack that just happened in in France. Clearly an Islamic attack. We'll get into that here in just a second and I want to take you through. So what are some of our politicians on the Democrat side have said? About the DSA. Now, remember the DSA, the Democratic Socialist of America. 51% of their board of directors are communists. Self avowed communists. They believe that there should be no private property. Okay. They believe in a totalitarian communist government. They are now putting their platform together, which we told you about the last week or week and a half, that they want to abolish the Senate, they want to abolish the Supreme Court. Supreme Court. They want to abolish the President and they want to abolish our Constitution. Well, other than that, you know, they're fine with everything. Oh, except capitalism as well. The free market's got to go as well. So what are our politicians saying? And what do you say to your kids who are starting to spout socialist stuff? I'm going to give you a conversation I want you to have with your kids. I don't care how old they are. Have this with your kids. And if they get angry with you having this conversation, that should tell you something and that should tell them something. So start the conversation. Well, I'll lay it out here for you in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about rough greens. If you've been outside in the heat, working in the yard, exercising, you know water is important. But you also know there's a reason athletes don't just drink plain water after every workout. Sometimes your body needs more than that. The same thing is true, true for your dog. During play, hot weather, you know, even normal process of getting older, dogs lose electrolytes and other important nutrients that water alone doesn't replace. That's why Ruff greens has, has created rough H2O. It's simple hydration powder made specifically for dogs with electrolytes, amino acids, collagen, zinc and vitamin B12 to help support energy, mobility, muscle function and recovery. It's really hot. Just tear up, open a packet, mix it in your dog's water bowl and you're done. If you want to help your dog feel more energized, feel more comfortable, better hydrated, rough H2O is really a simple way to do it. One bag equals seven daily packs or a week supply. Buy two bags and get a third completely free. No code needed. Just go to ruffh2o.com r u f-fh2o.com complete hydration support. Simple to use. Loved by dogs. All right, so let me, let me tell you what Tim Kaine said on DSA growth and how the Democratic socialists don't bother him as they are growing into the Democratic Party. Cut four. Do you think they have A space within your party. I do think the Democratic Party has always been known, and mostly this is good. Sometimes it's not as a big ten. And so I don't think that somebody says, I'm a DSA candidate. I don't think you should use that to throw them out. Why would you do that? Candidates have to rise and fall on their own merits. And so, you know, whether you're a DSA member or a third way Democrat or, you know, I just call myself a small D Democrat. People have to. If this were. If this. If the question were about communists or Nazis, would you say the same thing? It's not right. So if somebody calls themselves a member of the National Socialist Party, you know, we just judge them on their own merits? No, you wouldn't say that. Because the National Socialists stand for something. The Democratic Socialists of America stand for the destruction of the Senate, the Constitution. I mean, this is in their platform. So if you're running on a platform that wants to destroy the free market system, wants to abolish all prisons, wants to abolish the Senate and the presidency and the Supreme Court, no, you can't be a part. That's not that. We have nothing in common. Now, you can run that way, and I'm not going to condemn you. It's a free country. You can believe whatever you want. But no, no, no. There are standards. But Hakeem says this. Cut 5. The Democratic Party is not a cult of personality. We're a coalition of public servants. Our diversity of thought, perspective, and life experience, like what Bob brings to the table, is a strength, not a weakness. We are one big tent united by a strength. If they are one, if they are really truly one big tent, how come there is no one allowed to be in the Democratic Party and run who is pro life? Why would you be welcoming people who are anti dei? Would you be welcoming in your big tent somebody who says, yeah, I'm against dei. I'm against, you know, what Fauci did and what our teachers unions did, closing down the schools. I think that was a mistake and I can't forgive the teachers union. Would they be allowed into your party? Most likely not. We've seen them cull everybody over the years. They've. They've narrowed it way down. You have to be in this little deal. But you are welcome. If you're against the American system and Constitution, that's okay. Not abortion, not anti Di. Di. But if you're against the system of America, you're in. See, I. I'm not sure if I'm. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but these are the questions that we have to ask other Americans. And I'm not sure anymore Americans can think. I'm not sure Americans can reason anymore. You know, Socrates, the Socratic method is just to ask questions. And you know what he found? If you ask questions enough, even though they're honest, you'll eventually the elites will kill you. And that's what happened to him. Because nobody wants to hear those questions. But it says something when you're talking to an individual, and especially your son or daughter, and you can't have a simple question and say, look, I know you think I'm going to try to talk you into Donald Trump or whatever. I'm going to try to make you into conservative. I'm not. I just want to ask you some questions because I've been hearing about socialism from you. And so I just, I want to ask you a few questions. And if you get, if you start to get uncomfortable, let's just take a break for a second and just, you know, laugh about something and then we'll come back to it. Because I'm not, I'm not trying to convince you anything. I just want to ask you questions. And here's the first one. When you say socialism, do you mean the government pays for, like, Denmark, 60% of stuff, or that the government owns things? Because those are two different countries. So which is it? Is there private property, or do you want just bigger safety nets? Question number one. If it just means the government pays for some things, then we've already been a socialist government since 1790, and the argument is over here. Then we're just, we're not saying let's get rid of everything else. We're just saying, okay, we need to argue on taxes and how big that safety net gets. Is that what you mean by socialism? You say the system is rigged. I have my own opinions because I think it is rigged. But I want to know from you, rigged by whom? Who are you handing. Who are you handing the rig to? Who. Who is rigging it? And. And who is going to unrig it? How does that work? You say you're for socialism. Okay, what does a loaf of bread cost today? In the ballpark? You don't need an exact figure. It's not a. I'm not trying to embarrass you. You don't even know the price of bread. I'm trying. What is. What does a loaf of bread cost today? Or anything? What's it cost now? Tell me the name of the person who decided that price. Who. Who is deciding the price of bread? Anyone? One name. Corporation. Anybody? So if no one set the global price of bread, how did it get set and how did it stay roughly right every day in every store for your entire life? Do you know what's causing the price of bread to go up? Have you considered inflation? What is inflation? Can you name one country where the state took ownership of the means of production and the poor got richer? And I'm not trying to be cute. I want an example, and I'll take the best one you got. But where is the. Where is the. Where is the place where the poor got richer? And let's look into that. When the border opens, any border, any decades in this country, which direction do people run? Who built the wall and which way were the guns pointed? I know things are bad. They are. And I am not denying that they are. But I want to see if we have any perspective. Would you rather be poor today than. Or rich in 1900? By the way, one of you has antibiotics, the other one doesn't. Would you rather be poor here or poor in Africa? If you and I both make an agreement, we both make a trade. I walk into your store and I make a trade, and we both walk away happy. Who got hurt? Someone has to decide what your work is worth. Do you want it to be you and the person paying you or a third man with an army who's never met either of you? You know, one example that I learned as I was getting ready for today's show and trying to find examples of the free market. You know, when Mao came into China, all these people starved and they were starving on the farm. And it was because he just told them to do things that farmers just. They know, they know that won't work. So 18 farmers in a starving commune met at night in China, and they divided the collective land into family plots. Okay? Every household kept whatever it grew past the state quota, so they all had to have a quota. But it was not working with a commune. They were not making even the state quota. They were starving. So they got together at night and they said, let's divide this up. We're going to keep it to ourselves. But you keep your fan. Your plot is this. My plot is this. My plot? Your plot is this. And divided up 18 different ways and then said, you keep whatever you grow on that land. You have to hit the state quota, but then you don't share that with anybody other. No other farmer. Okay, you keep it. Most of them Couldn't sign their names. So in secret, they press their thumbprints into the paper and they added a clause. If any of us is executed for this, the rest will raise his children until they're 18. Okay? Because they expected to die for the crime of private property. So now the harvest comes. Well, it is so far above anything the Commune had ever produced. It couldn't be hidden. And they expected now China is going to come in and they're going to kill us. They're going to kill us all because we have. We. We took this as private property. Well, it took a couple of years, but they didn't get what they expected. Instead, the household responsibility system became national policy for China. They still didn't own the land, but it was the largest reduction of poverty in recorded history of the human race that was underway. They took land that none of them owned, and they said, just for our purposes, you own this square, I own this square. Whatever I produce, I keep. Whatever you produce, what is that? That's the free market system. You keep what you produce. By the way, that thumbprint, that contract, it survives. It's now in the National Museum of China. And we're just putting it up on the screen. That's it. These poor farmers that were starving to death decided to risk their lives and say, private property is important. That's not private property in China. They still don't own it. They have a lease, I think, of 10 years, and the state, if any of them misbehave, the state can just take it. So they still have to be loyal to the state and do everything the state says, but they can lease that land, which I guess some people would be fine with. You know where the problem is? America was built on private property. We were built on that. And everything, all private property is going away now. You know, lease. We are a lease and rent kind of society. And unfortunately, the housing thing, that housing bill that just went through, is going to encourage more people to rent. Well, then you never own. And if you don't own, you don't actually own an asset that can appreciate, and so you can't get richer. You're always paying just to survive. And that's what's happening in China. Okay? Ask your kids these questions and just try to have a rational conversation and listen to them. Don't try to teach them anything. Listen to them. Ask the questions and listen again. Don't argue. Your goal is to have a rational, reasonable conversation so you can hear where they are and you can hear. Can they still think you can push Back and say, have you thought of this? Or when you ask, it's better to basic question on their answer. When you say this. I'm trying. I just want to understand. Do you mean X, Y and Z, have that conversation with your kids and then later this week, let's talk about it. Let's have you call in and tell me what happened with that conversation with your kids. Just ask them those questions, Ricky. Can we just, can we tweet those out or. And just. I'd like to invite you to have a conversation with your family and then come back later this week and tell me how that went. All right. More in just a second. I gotta tie all of this up to the socialists and what is happening with the Red Green alliance, because that is critical right now. The Red Green alliance, the red is the socialists, the Marxists, the communists, they're making their move all over the country now. And the green, which is the Islamists, they are now making their move. There was a terrorist attack over the weekend in Germany.

All right, there's three stories that I want to get to here and then I'm going to tie them together with some questions in about five minutes. So standby. But first let me give you some updates. First, the latest. French police have arrested a man after he attacked three women with knives in Paris. French police detained a man Monday after he attacked three women with knives. The man attacked the three women, who are aged 19, 24 and 36, with two kitchen knives, severely wounding two of them. Video aired on the social platform X, verified by Reuters, shows a man with long black hair, wearing a cream tracksuit and wielding one big knife in each hand stabbing and attempting to stab a young woman. It is unclear if the woman was injured. Another part of the video shows the same man lying on the ground immobilized by bystanders, while the two knives are lying nearby on a pedestrian crossing. It is Allah who commanded me, the man lying down on the floor said. Nunes said the man had been detained by an off duty police officer. I pay tribute to him. It was a courageous act, he said. The motive of the attack is unknown. You rolled your eyes, didn't you? But I said that you rolled your eyes. I know you did.
B
I did.
A
Okay. The. The police added they haven't verified the identity of the attacker and his declarations were incoherent while he was being arrested. So they weren't sure if what a whole world heard on X, where he said it was Allah who commanded me. They're not sure if that's what he really said. Okay, I'm going to take you to Berlin in just a second and then Great Britain and then here. And I have a series of questions to ask the left. We'll do that in just a second.

Europe's streets run red from more Islamist
A
attacks, Glenn already revealed the quieter war underway in America. Watch the jihad from within on demand now@glenn beck.com. So right now you have attacks all over the world that are happening. And I believe the Red Green alliance is a death culture. And I've said it before, but I believe it's a death cult. And if the Democrats and those who vote differently than I do don't start to recognize we're in bed with a death cult here, this is not good. They want total destruction of everything that we hold dear. Ish. I don't even. You don't even have to hold it dear. Dear. Ish. You like, you know, you like your country, Ish, you know, you'd like some things to change. And I'm, in some ways I'm like that. I'm a diehard for the constitution and our history, but I want a lot of things to change. I don't want to go back to the way it was. The way it was doesn't work. Let us hear, let us hear. But now you have an attack today by Islamist in France. You have another attack in Germany. Germany's getting really bad, is it not, Jason?
B
One of the worst, I would say.
A
Yeah. And tell me about the attack this weekend in Germany in Berlin.
B
Oh, so he was already convicted of planning at least one terror attack, but then he was let out conditionally and I think it was, I think he was assigned to complete up to, I think 26 anti terrorism or anti radical classes.
A
Ah, okay. We got a class. Okay, that'll work. That'll work. Here's the thing I played for you. The audio of, of the two leaders of the Democrats saying we have no problem with the DSA and they're welcome in this party. Okay, well, that's an, that's interesting, you know, to, to take that view on things, but. Okay. I don't know what you have in common with them. And that is the problem. Now. Look at what's happening in New York with Mamdani. That is socialists and Islamists working together. That's what happened in Iran. I want to ask the people who are lgbtqi, two plus whatever it is, I want to ask you a few questions. First, I'll need to give you a little bit of history because I'm going to give you a name. If you're a socialist, you're a Marxist, you probably know this name. The rest, the rest of us don't. September 1978. 52 year old Frenchman gets off a plane in Tehran. He's got a press pass and a notebook. His name is Michael Foucault. He was the most influential philosopher alive at the time. Everything you recognize now, what's happening in our universities, the theory about power, identity, sexuality, all of it runs back to this guy. He was a gay man in Europe that had just stopped arresting men like him. So he goes to Iran to watch the revolution and he comes back a total believer. And he files his dispatches with an Italian paper in a French magazine. And what he described was not politics, it was something closer, closer to like the rapture. He had found people willing to walk unarmed into rifles for something they couldn't be talked out of. And he called it political spirituality, okay? A thing the tired, comfortable west had traded away. These people still had it, okay? So he goes back in November and he writes that the whole nation has risen against the whole state. And he meant it as praise. He was warned. And this is the part that matters. That same month, a letter ran in the French press from an Iranian woman writing under the name of Altusa H. She told him plainly that he was romanticizing men who would build a prison. And the ones cheering in the streets like him would be the first ones in that prison. And that all these Western intellectuals had a habit of admiring from a distance what other people had to live inside. She wasn't a critic from the right. She was an Iranian woman who could see what was coming. So this philosopher, he answers her. He didn't change his mind. Khomeini then comes home in February. The revolution consolidates in 11 days. Within months, the new courts begin handing down death sentences. And among people that were hung were men convicted of homosexuality. Remember, he's a homosexual in France. One of his big things was France is finally moving to decriminalize this, et cetera, et cetera. And the west was doing that. This is the man who taught the west how to think about sexual freedom. And he had endorsed the government that now is executing homosexuals inside of a year. This is why I warn you, because this is the receipt. We've been here before. Okay, so what is. What is all of this mean? He publishes. In 1979. He publishes a piece in Le Mans called It's Useless to Revolt. His defenders say this is his reckoning and it is a serious essay. It's an argument that the act of rising up against tyranny has worth, even when the thing that follows it is terrible that you can't tell people who stay on their knees because the future is uncertain. That's not nothing. It's an idea that a decent person can hold. So he's saying, even if it's worth supporting, even if it turns out to be a horrible thing, okay, but here's what this essay never did. It never named the courts, it never names the hangings. It never says, I was wrong about this part. It's a defense of a revolt in general, published at the exact moment a specific revolt required a specific accounting. So he lives five more years. He's at the height of his power, lecturing in Paris and California. He's teaching at Berkeley, California. He's publishing until the month he dies in 1984. And tragic death. He wasn't silenced. He's not ignorant. He never took it back. Now, I was thinking about this last night, and I thought, what should he have written? I mean, here's the. Here's the paragraph. I think he owed the world, and I'm putting words in a dead man's mouth, and I'm telling you I'm doing that. But. And you know, I don't normally like it, but I think it's worth it. In this case, he should have written, I went to Tehran and I mistook intensity for justice. I saw men willing to die, and I assumed that anyone willing to die for a thing must be right about that thing. I was warned by a woman who lived there, and instead of listening to her, I answered her. The government I praised is now hanging men for what I am. I was wrong. This is not going to end well. They weren't hanging homosexuals before this, and now they are. It's wrong. Not partly, not in hindsight. I was wrong in a way that could have been avoided at the time. And the people who are dead, who would not care what a French professor wrote, deserve. I have to write this. They deserve me standing up and saying I was wrong. That's it. That's all it would have taken but nine or 10 sentences. But it never came. Why? You've watched people do this your entire life and you're seeing it happen right now. An honest mind treats being wrong as information. A weak one treats it as injury. So how is he actually wrong? Three ways, and they're still on the market today. He judged a movement by how it felt to the people inside, instead of by what it would do to the people underneath it. Passion is not a moral argument. Everyone who has ever built a gallows was passionate. He had spent his entire career teaching that Western liberal institutions, the courts, the rights, the rule of law were masks. That power war, fine, argue it. But when a movement shows up to tear those institutions down, he had thrown away the only ruler that he had left to measure what replaced them. If everything is a mask, then you can't tell the difference between a constitution and a firing squad. And he was warned. This is not about philosophy. This is about character. It's about intentional self imposed ignorance or blindness. If you have a chance to talk to a young person or a socialist or anything else, you might have an argument this week you're going to see a young person marching under a flag flown by men who would put them in place, prison in the country she or he is marching for. And you're going to want to say something cutting. Don't. If it comes out of your mouth sounding like you don't care what happens to her, then you've lost. And quite honestly, we deserve to lose. I'm not talking about being polite. Some rules. Rules are the difference between winning and getting embarrassed. If you want to win this fight, don't say Palestinians. Say Hamas. A people is not a militia. Merge those two words and you're going to lose because I've done this before. You'll spend the entire week defending yourself instead of making your point. And the person you're trying to reach will never hear the argument at all. There was a terrorist attack from somebody who was a former isis. Which one was that, Jason? I've lost track of them. There was an ISIS guy who was trying to support isis.
B
That was Germany.
A
That was Germany. Okay. You know, they will tell you that nobody's marching for a caliphate and blah, blah, blah, but they are. But I wouldn't argue. And don't argue with a group, argue with a person one at a time and ask hard questions. Name the country or the region where you as LGBTQ could walk down the street holding your partner's hand and not be harassed. Is there anywhere with the Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, anywhere that you'll feel comfortable? The People you are supporting. If you flew there tomorrow and marched under the same LGBTQ, AI2 plus, whatever it is, what would happen to you? Not what should happen to you, but what happens to you? Can you quote any lines from anybody in this movement where they have promised to protect LGBTQ rights? One line where they have taken a hard stance. Let me ask you this. Have they ever marched for you? Ask those questions and just stop. Let them answer. And when they answer, take it seriously, because the good ones will have a real reply, and you better be ready for it. The strongest version isn't, Hamas is kind to gay people. Nobody. It's this. They'll say, I oppose the killing of civilians, whether or not those civilians would like me or not. And that's a serious moral position. You know, a better one than the alternative. Because a principle that you extend only to people who would extend it back is a trade, and that's not so. Just agree with that and then ask the only question left then. The opposite of killing. The opposite of killing. Why are you flying their flag? Because opposing a war is not the same as endorsing the men running it. Right? Make them defend the endorsement of the people who are running Hamas and Hezbollah and the Palestinian Authority. Because it's not the compassion. It's never the compassion. And if they can't answer, don't spike the ball. Let the silence. You know, Foucault had the silence available to him for five years, and he used it to say nothing. We've got a better use. I honestly. It is time for Democrats. It is time for people who are homosexual, have different lifestyles than mine, whatever. It is time to ask yourself serious questions. What happens to me if Glenn Beck's right? What happens to me if they're using me like they did in Iran? What happens then to me, my friends, my lifestyle? What happens? You better think that through. All right. More in just a second. There are some things that you should absolutely never have to become an expert in. You shouldn't have to know how to rewire your house's electrical system, although this weekend I thought I might have to be. You shouldn't know how to rebuild a transmission. And if you own a business, you shouldn't have to become an expert in insurance policies. Super sure does not expect you to know the coverage that you need. They give you a dedicated advisor who takes the time to understand your business and a policy that will fit the way you actually operate. That means you can spend less time deciphering insurance language and more time to doing what you started your business to do in the first place. And unless you're an insurance company, you didn't start it so you could do insurance. You need somebody who's in your corner that knows how all of this works that you can count on. Right now you can go to super sure.com beck and get a full report on your current policies with no obligation. Find out if you're overinsured or underinsured or somewhere in between.

One of the greatest portrait artists, I believe of our day is a guy named Mark Mike Malm, and he's a friend of mine. And I was painting this painting of the President's mother a few months ago, and I had like three days and I can't paint that fast. And I asked Mike, can you come over and help me with this? And so he came over, he helped, and. And it's this beautiful painting and so gave it to the President. I just got a note from the President over the weekend. Glenn. Prime location on the way to the White House. Took down. Makes me so happy. Took down President Wilson's wife Edith, and put up Marianne McLeod Trump President DJT I gotta tell you, to know that a painting that I gave the press is there in the White House is amazing. You can see it on tour. Ask the tour guides. Apparently you can see it while you're on tour if you tour the White House. But the fact that it replaced Woodrow Wilson's wife is a dream come true.

Incredible.

It's an absolute dream come true.
On July 27, 2026, Glenn Beck and guests dissect newly leaked excerpts from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s diary, arguing that they demonstrate a deeper and more egotistical cover-up regarding the origins and management of COVID-19 than previously reported. The episode explores the implications for public trust, congressional oversight, and the current political climate, branching into related themes such as government transparency, individual rights, and the pitfalls of modern collectivism.
This episode uses the Fauci diary as a springboard to grapple with the deeper issues of accountability, the repeated failure of “short-term fixes,” and the risks of naive revolutionary enthusiasm—always circling back to the necessity of robust, honest systems and open, reasoned conversation. For listeners, it provides talking points, historical caution, and a template for more productive dialogue in today’s bitterly divided political landscape.
