You know you need fiber for a healthy gut, but do you actually know how to get it? Quaker's been serving UP fiber since 1877 with over 100 great tasting, good source of fiber options to choose from. Whether you like old fashioned oats, instant oatmeal granola, or oatmeal squares, Quaker makes it delicious. Mmm. So good. Get your fiber with Quaker Shop, Quaker's good source of fiber products at a store near you. There's that moment when you're passing a tree line or a parked vehicle or a dimly lit corner and you, you feel like, is there somebody that's behind there? This is where the burner launcher comes in. It's a non firearm self defense option. The fire is powerful tear gas, okay. Designed to disrupt a threat and create distance without using lethal force. Somebody steps out from behind that tree line, boom. You hit them with that, you're fine. Gives you an option. You prefer something smaller, more discreet for evening walks or daily carry. The burner compact launcher is the same. Non lethal protection in a light, easier to carry. Profile. It's what I carry. The goal is not to expect trouble.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. It has been a long week and we have phone Fridays. You can call us now, 888-727. Beck. Tell us what you were thinking this week, what the big story of the week was. Maybe we missed something you need to tell us about or you want a deeper understanding or explanation of whatever is happening in the news? Just call us, 888-727. Beck. We're going to take phone calls. I want to run down some of the things that are happening in the news because there's a lot of crazy things. By the way, the next presidential election has officially begun. The Democrats have officially announced there's someone worse than Adolf Hitler. Donald Trump. Yes, yes. They're more afraid of him. Actually, it's two people because we can't decide which one's going to be selected. So we're more afraid of these two people than even Donald Trump. Where do you go from Hitler? We'll get into that here in just a second. And your phone call, 888-727. Beck. Let me tell you about the charity that I started about 15 years ago. Charity used to be local and personal. You know, you knew the family whose house burned down. You knew the farmer who lost a crop. You knew the widow who needed help with groceries. And when people stepped up, it wasn't a tax write off strategy. It was because you were a neighbor helping neighbors. And you knew you were gonna need help at some point and you wanted your neighbors to be there. I mean, that's the selfish way to look at it, but it's true in a lot of ways. But you also wanted to be there because it was your neighbor, your compassion. Okay? And then somewhere along the way, charity became institutionalized and part of the government as well. I really think that it is important for us to keep our heart really soft and be responsible for one another. And that's why Mercury one was started. And that's why it matters. We respond to disasters quickly, but we don't go in as some big national charity. We look for the local trusted, the local leaders who are already there on the scene who are just like, I need help, I need help, I need help. And we're there to hold their arms up. They're Moses, we're Aaron. Okay? It's about restoring the heart of charity back to you and your community. And then we're there to help you all the way. We would love for you to join us in this effort to empower people and bring back the real heart of charity. It's mercury1.org, mercuryone.org, whatever. We raise 100%. Every dollar that we raise. When I say, hey, we're going in for this, this disaster, 100% of the money goes to that disaster. Find our loyal. Our loyalty section and give $15 or more. $15 you can give a month. That's what, a couple of cups of coffee. I can't believe that's what coffee cost. But anyway, 15 bucks a month and you can really help out. And your gift will ensure that we have meal kits and hygiene packages and everything for the operations that we can get it on a plane and get it to wherever it needs to be here in the country. Stay ready, stay prepared, and keep your heart open to others in need. Mercury1.org Join us now, won't you? Mercury1.org Alrighty. They've just announced the election is on. Gavin. Gavin Newsom. He just did an interview where he said, you know who scares me more than Donald Trump? No. Satan. Well, no, you probably aren't scared, but I don't know who scares you more than Donald Trump. You have been. You've spent what seems a lifetime now saying he's the scariest thing out there. And I told you because, remember, Ronald Reagan was a Nazi. Uh, George H.W. bush was a Nazi. George W. Bush was a Nazi. Of all people, Mitt Romney was a Nazi. Oh, and a car and a dog torturer who would just strap animals to the top of station wagons. Uh, and then Donald Trump, he was. He was the. He was Hitler's. Hitler. Okay? He was. He was. The guy that Hitler was. Was afraid he might become someday. Now that we're coming towards the next presidential election, we have to have somebody worse than Donald Trump. And he's said it. So Gavin Newsom. And I, I just. This is one of my favorite quotes. There are some people waiting in the wings in the MAGA world who would love to be the chosen ones of the Trump Orbit. Orbit. JD Vance is one of them. Marco Rubio is one of them. You know, for whatever reason, Vance scares me. Why? Well, he scares me almost more than Trump. I don't know. I mean, talk about a guy who put a mask on and his face grew into it. This is Gavin Newsom talking about how J.D. vance is wearing a mask. And when I. When I hear Gavin news. When I read that today, honestly, this is how it sounded in my head coming from Gavin Newsom. It sounded like this. I gotta tell you. I gotta tell you, he scares me more than Trump. I mean, I don't know. I mean, talk about a guy who put a mask on and his face Just grew into it. He wears a mask. The guy who just said, you know what? Let me tell you, I'm just like you. I'm just like you. Oh, you black people in this room. I'm. I'm just dumb as a box of rocks. Just like. I can't read. Just like you. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Okay, Gavin. All right, thank you. I mean, they're going to run out of people. I mean, it's at some point. Well, maybe not. Maybe not, because I. Apparently, everybody's as dumb as Gavin Newsom. I mean, at some point, do people stop buying. Wait a minute. You just said that guy was Hitler. And if that guy's Hitler, how. Where do you go scarier than Hitler? I mean, at least be creative. Just say, you know, like the German cannibal. I think he. J.D. vance is like that German cannibal that was eating people. At least give me somebody new. My gosh. Okay. All right. And I don't want to be hyperbolic about any of this. I just think that he's Hitler. Okay. Okay. Well, thank you for keeping the hyperbole out of it. No, no, no, I appreciate that. By the way, Jason, can I bring you in here for a second? Yes. Trump said about 10 days ago that Iran would have about 10 or 15 days before we would have action that would come up this weekend. Do we have any, you know, I don't know. America 250 freedom. 250 events planned over the skies of Duran this week. Any firework shows happen? Iran this weekend?
- [10:11]
Jason
Well, that's the big question. So the USS Ford is now in striking range. It's off the coast of Israel right now. So all the assets are in place. We are getting a lot of signs that we could be seeing some fireworks displays. You always look at some of the embassies that are around there and see what happens. The embassy in Lebanon, the US Said that non emergency personnel should get out of there. China is now evacuating their people out of Iran. Canadians are just announced they're having their people leave Iran. The U.S. state Department just said for non emergency personnel to leave Israel. To leave Israel. That's another big sign.
- [10:51]
Glenn Beck
That's a big one.
- [10:53]
Jason
Yeah. It's not trending well for the Iranian regime right now. Let's just put it that way.
- [11:00]
Glenn Beck
So J.D. vance came out and said, we're not going to get into a long, protracted war in. In Iran. I don't know if you can say that, can you? I mean, it would be our intention. It is not our Intention to get into a long and, you know, interactive. Protracted. Yes, thank you. I was trying to. What, what is that word again? Protracted war. We don't want to get into that. That's not our intention. But I mean, you know, once you open a can of whoop ass, it's hard to get the ass back into the whoop and put the can back together. You know what I mean? It's, you know, you don't know how that's going to go. It's not our. And we hope that that doesn't happen, but it could. I mean, that's like saying, you know, FDR going and saying, look, we're not going to get into a lot. We're just going to go over and kick Hitler's ass and then come back and then we'll just elect a bunch of Republican presidents or just like Hitler, you know, you just don't know how it's going to go. And it concerns me because, you know, Iran is not, they're not good, they're not, they're, it's not a good regime, you know, and they, they got a lot of assets all around the world, I think, including here in America.
- [12:15]
Jason
Yeah, well, and that's probably one of the biggest things that we should worry about is asymmetrically what, what the Iranian regime is going to do because that, that will be their main, I guess, point of attack on us to see if they can pull that off. So that's whatever sleeper cells they have in both South America and within our own country, but not only that, but cells within our close to military bases all over the Middle East. You also got to look at the big one, shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, which has always been their major trump card. And they've already signaled that they plan on doing that while talks are going on in Amman a couple of weeks ago or a week ago, this is going by so fast. They actually did military drills where they shut down briefly the Strait of Hormuz. Huge signal attack, you know, signal of what they plan on doing. But when you talk about a long, protracted war, I would like to know the definition of long in today's modern warfare because, I mean, is two weeks long, is three weeks long? That's probably what I'm looking at. It's going to take them a while to get air superiority, I think, but I don't even know the capability after Venezuela. I don't even know what our capabilities are as of now, but fully expect the big guns to come out like cyber warfare. All of that. It's, it's going to be interesting.
- [13:28]
Glenn Beck
Donald Trump. The one thing is, I mean, the one reason why I think JD Vance could possibly get away with saying that is because he knows possibly what we don't know. He knows what we used in Venezuela. I mean, you know, I would be shocked after Venezuela. I would be shocked if they can have, if we can have air superiority, minute one, the minute we cross the airspace, if any of their planes can actually get up off of the ground, which would shock me just based on what we did in Venezuela. I don't know what happened in Venezuela. And I think that's the point. Nobody knows really what happened in Venezuela. It was just like, huh, that's interesting. Never seen a country be able to do that before, which it's going. Let's just savor that for a moment. Let's just savor that for a moment. We went from a country that was like, what, What? I mean, our withdrawal from Afghanistan was perfectly reasonable. I mean, that was a well executed plan. People falling from the sky, out of airplanes. Okay? We went from that four years ago to what the hell just happened in Venezuela? And no one knows, and China and Russia and everybody's like, what the hell is going on? I mean, doesn't that feel good? That's what keeps enemies at bay. Just saying. By the way, we're going to take your phone calls here in a second. 888-727. Beck, I just have to give you this quick story. What was going through JD Vance's mind when the Democrats lost it at the State of the Union? Did you see this? I had one thought in my head the whole time, which is, don't make a stupid face for two hours. Which is hard for me. I love that. Can you imagine the pressure of sitting behind the President and not making a face? Because, I mean, you're sitting there literally for two hours. There's got to be times when you're like, not thinking about stuff and you're like, yeah, I gotta, I got an itch on the inside of my nose. You know what I mean? It's got to be really difficult. Got to be really difficult, especially with that, which, I mean, he did such a good job at that. I don't remember even seeing any expressions on his face or what's his face from the speaker of the House. I don't remember seeing an expression from either one of them, which says an awful lot because I remember seeing Nancy Pelosi sitting behind him and rolling her eyes and everything else. There was no there's no memory of what they did they allowed Donald Trump to do. I mean, that was such a. Stephen Miller was responsible for that, wasn't he, Ricky?
- [16:12]
Ricky
That's my theory. That man is a political genius.
- [16:15]
Glenn Beck
He's a genius. That just seems like Stephen Miller because that thing was so well executed. He set them up. He just set them up, and they walked right into the trap. And then he didn't have to say anything when he asked that question, you know, to stand up. Stand up if you agree with this. He didn't. He didn't say, you know, you have to agree. He gave them the opportunity. Stand up on the easiest question in the world. Stand up if you believe that the government of the US Serves US Citizens over illegal aliens. Didn't stand. And what did he do? Do you remember? He just stood back, smiled and gestured like, look, America, look. He did that twice smiling. Look. It was brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Just brilliant. And JD Pants had to be sitting there going, don't, don't, don't look, don't, don't do. Don't do anything. Don't do anything. Let that moment sit by itself. And it did. It did. All right, your phone's in. Just a second. 888-727-BECK. If you're an insider, you get a special VIP line. You know what it is? 888-727-BECK. For everybody else, let's go to the phones next. First, let me talk to you a little bit about American Giant. When you were a kid and your grandfather was teaching you how to do things, you know, what do you always say? I'm betting it's something along the lines of, Glenn, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing, right? Oh, now it's really not, because I don't think this is worth doing. But it turns out it was. And, you know, he had a way of looking at life and you. And work. Measure twice, you know, cut once. You know, here's the thing. Here's the thing. All of these things used to define who we are and define what we used to make in America when things were still made here. They were built with the assumption that they'd last, that they were going to be built right the first time. Somebody's reputation was attached to every stitch, every seam, every bolt, everything. American Giant has brought that back. They make their clothing right here in the United States, working with skilled American labor and supply chains that are not halfway around the world. Their hoodies, their tees, their sweats built for durability. Everything from the thread to the zippers come from someplace here in America. It's not just something your grandfather said. It's a standard worth bringing back. Buy American today@american-giant.com Glenn Save 20% when you use my name for your first purchase. That's american-giant.com Glenn 10 seconds. Station ID.

Glenn Beck
Boy, we have some really good contestants that it's going to be hard to choose. Really, really good contestants. I have a feeling this is going to be close for this next week. We close as of next Friday, we close off the submission. So if you are a singer and you want to sing on Ellis island at a really special event. You know what? I'm really surprised at the number of really good singers that sing in French and are knocking that song out of the park. That is really a hard song to do. And they're knocking it out of the park and. But we need, we need guys, guys, male singers. We're a shortage of guy singers. We have some great contestants, but we could use some more. So if you know anybody that is a singer, just go to glenn beck.com contest. Is that right?
- [20:09]
Ricky
That's right. And if you don't do it, Glenn's gonna have to sing.
- [20:12]
Glenn Beck
So don't say that. People will. That's not true. That is not true. But please join us if you. If, especially if you're a male singer. But we could still use some good female singers. The contest closes next Friday. And then we go into judging and the insiders are gonna, you know, make the. Make the the call, make the judgment. And it is at glenn beck.com/contest. Let me go to Bob in Missouri. Hello, Bob.
- [20:42]
Caller
Hello, Glenn. How are you, sir?
- [20:44]
Glenn Beck
I'm great.
- [20:47]
Caller
I just told you. I'm a torch insider. I signed up the very first day. And your screener, I don't know, a company in Missouri, we, we actually do the assembly of electronic assemblies. And people don't realize how small the components are inside of your phones and everything else. Parts of These phones are 1 millimeter by a half a millimeter, and they have to be placed within one micron of accuracy on a board and soldered down. You know, you can have all the microchips in the world, but if you don't know how to put it on a board, it doesn't do you any good. And what we do, this, what I do, has been outsourced for 40 years in this country, there's less than 50,000 employees that do what I do in this country.
- [21:32]
Glenn Beck
Wow. And that's soldering the chips onto the. The board.
- [21:38]
Caller
That's correct.
- [21:40]
Glenn Beck
Honestly, I'm surprised. That's still done by hand. And that's all done by hand.
- [21:44]
Caller
Still by hand.
- [21:46]
Glenn Beck
Okay.
- [21:47]
Caller
It's done by machinery. The machinery each. The machine that places that part on a board cost a half a million dollars. But you have to train somebody how to program that machine. And you can't train them in two to three weeks. It takes me six to eight months train an employee.
- [22:05]
Glenn Beck
Wow. Wow. Well, we've. We've got a lot of retraining to do.
- [22:12]
Caller
Yeah, a lot. And the seriousness is we have companies that when Donald Trump announced that he was going to bring the manufacturing back, our website got shut down three times in one day. And 90% of the companies that called us, they said, well, we can't get our information out of China. Well, no, you're not going to get your information out of the China, because the information that I need to build, they're going to hold on to it. The source codes, everything else that's needed to build it for in circuit assembly. It's crazy. And no. And none of the politicians, you know, I'll get them walking into my facility all the time, you know, their hands are out and it's like, go away. It's. You don't even understand what I do. Okay, You. If I say a microchip, I can pick up a circuit board, a print circuit board, finished, and they're going to think that's a microchip. This is how crazy it is.
- [23:04]
Glenn Beck
Well, I have found, Bob, that politicians, generally speaking, have no idea what they're talking about on any, almost any subject. And that's. And that's a real problem because most of them are lawyers, you know, and honestly, what has a law lawyer created in life except paperwork and time traps? I mean, we need. And that's why I think Donald Trump is killing it in the areas that he is, because he understands business. He's not a lawyer. He understands business. More in a minute. And your phone call. Next, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. I've worked with these guys for a very long time. The Jewish people have often had to pick up, you know, their history and put it in a suitcase. You know, few photographs, a menorah, maybe a candlestick or two. You know, the things that you can carry when you don't know if you're ever going to come home and see home again. From Europe to the Middle east to North Africa, generations have been forced to leave behind property and businesses and neighborhoods sometimes overnight because hatred or war made it impossible to stay. Survival has become a skill. But even today, Jewish families still face threats and vulnerable people, especially especially the elderly and children need practical help, not just sympathy. We have worked with IFCJ over the years. I think we have purchased bulletproof glass, bomb proof glass for some of the schools in France, here in America, etc. Etc. They also provide food and shelter and security and life saving support to Jewish people in Israel and all around the world. They help families rebuild when conflict erupts. Please, you want to get involved? It's a group of Christians and Jews working together. IFCJ.org Be the blessing. Live the word, answer the call. IFCJ.org Tired of the division.

Foreign. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. It's Friday. Wall to wall phones. 888-727-BECK Let me go to Jerry on line 10 in Texas. Hello, Jerry.
- [25:29]
Caller
Hello, Glenn. Thank you, sir.
- [25:31]
Glenn Beck
How are you sir?
- [25:32]
Caller
I am very well. I've been blessed. Thank you. I, I just want to remind Texans today is your last day of early voting. Please go vote and if you will, please vote yes on Proposition 10. This may be your only chance to stop Sharia law and prevent.
- [25:54]
Glenn Beck
Explain for people who explain for people who don't aren't in Texas or haven't heard in Texas what Proposition 10 is. Explain the anti Sharia law.
- [26:04]
Caller
Okay. Proposition 10 will allow us to put this on the Texas Constitution which prevents the use of Sharia law as a law instead of our Constitution and the Texas cost. The U.S. constitution and the Texas Constitution as law. It would prevent them from overriding our current laws and it would stop them from doing things like circumcising your daughters, raping your daughters if they're not Muslim. Preventing businesses from selling alcohol. Preventing. Okay now I, I may want this, but preventing pornographic material in businesses. But not forced on people. Right?
- [26:58]
Glenn Beck
And not forced because of Sharia law. That's, that's the key here, Jerry. And I think Proposition 10 is so important. Texas. I don't care if there's nothing. I don't. I don't care if your house is on fire once the firemen arrive today. Say you guys have this handled. I got to go vote. You've got to vote for Proposition 10. You have to vote for Prop. Proposition 10. This Texas has a real problem of Sharia law. It is creeping into it. I mean, Ricky, can we. Can we find the audio of the green couch interview I did with the two Muslim imams in Texas? And there was rumor that they were for Sharia law. And they spent 30 minutes going, no, of course we're not. And I made them very, very comfortable until one of them finally said, well, I mean. I mean, we all agree if you steal, you should have your hand cut off. And I said, oh, yeah? What? Like, what else? I mean, it is there. That was 10 years ago in Texas. If you don't pass this bill, do you know what they're doing in Dearborn, Michigan now? I think it's Dearborn, where they are now trying to pass a resolution that all of the city's documents and everything else will be in Arabic first. Arabic. Excuse me. What? You check. Oh, Ricky's here. Child, look at this. Stepping into Stu's role and going, I got a fact check that. That doesn't sound right. Check it.
- [28:32]
Ricky
Yeah, I will. Because I sleep last night because of Bill Gates and the hookers that he did not sleep with or purchase.
- [28:42]
Glenn Beck
I didn't say he did. I said it sure sounded like he did. It sure sounds like he was with hookers. I mean, we could get into the hooker thing. If you want to get into hookers. We could do. I could do a whole hour on hookers, but she's not sleeping well because of that. Anyway, Proposition 10. Make sure that you. You do that. Billy in Pennsylvania. Hello, Billy. Welcome.
- [29:06]
Caller
Hi, Glenn. Good morning. How are you, sir?
- [29:10]
Glenn Beck
I am great, Billy.
- [29:12]
Caller
I watch you all the time. Thank you for all the help you're giving our country.
- [29:17]
Glenn Beck
You're really a hero.
- [29:18]
Caller
I think when you went to Afghanistan, a lot of other talk show hosts, they talk to talk, but, brother, you walk the walk that took a brave man to do that. You put yourself in danger anyway, so.
- [29:32]
Glenn Beck
You know, Billy, I don't want you to think I don't, don't, don't inflate. I did not go in. I was not allowed to go into Afghanistan. I went into the Middle east, but I was not allowed to actually go into Afghanistan. I would have really muddied things up, but I was in the Middle east, and our people who deserve that kind of praise, they were there. Anyway. Go ahead.
- [29:51]
Caller
Anyway, I sent you a CD of mine. I'm a singer songwriter, and you should be getting it today. I sent you two packages. There's. The last song on the CD is called Remember the Soldier, and it's dedicated to all the fallen soldiers dating back from the Revolutionary War to current.
- [30:12]
Glenn Beck
Okay. And. Well, we will. I will look for it.
- [30:16]
Caller
Yeah. I will look for one last thing. There's a book called the Naked Communists that pretty much explains what's going on. And the Democrats, people call them liberals. They should just stop calling them liberals and calm what they are and their communists. So this book, I think you can get it on Amazon, it's called the Naked Communists. It says 45 things that you need to destroy a country. And I think you brought it up already on one of your shows. So.
- [30:45]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. Are you. Can I ask you something, Billy? Did you ever live in Baltimore?
- [30:50]
Caller
Yeah, yeah.
- [30:52]
Glenn Beck
I can hear the Baltimore accent in you when you say shoes. But anyway, it's really a very small pocket of an accent, Billy. Thank you. We have talked about that, and you're absolutely right. We have to stop. We have to start calling people by the proper label. You know, why are progressives called progressive? Turn of the century, there was a communist movement here. I mean, it happened in the 1800s as well here, but turn of the century, communism was starting to take. To take real root. And people were starting to say, remember, this is before all the atrocities. So you can kind of excuse people a little bit and say, you know, it's a modern era. This is a modern way to do things. We're going to have administrative states and tell everybody how to live. It's evil. But. So people were like, yeah, I really like that. But they didn't want to be called communists. They weren't communists because they didn't believe in the violent revolution that everyone else was preaching. Remember, there was the Paris communes in the 1800s and everything else. And so there was these. There was just this list of blood and skirmishes and riots and everything else that people in America were like, I don't want that, but I do like communism. So they decided to call themselves progressives. We are going to progress towards that utopian society, but we're just going to do it without the revolution. So they called themselves first Communists, then they called themselves progressives. When Woodrow Wilson got in, people started to see what progressives really were. I mean, you have to remember, read. Read up. But Woodrow Wilson said, oh, finally a guy who gets it. A guy we can really work with and a guy whose country now, because of what he's doing, we're going to be able to be buddies. We're going to be able to do all kinds of stuff together. That guy was Lenin. Wilson was for the Russian Revolution. He thought that was fantastic. Okay, well, when he started doing all kinds of things that were progressive and taking the Constitution because people understood the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and our founding Fathers, unlike we do now, they rejected and they were like, holy cow. So by 1930, the word progressive, progressive was erased. FDR comes in and he's now taking liberal. Now, liberal used to mean somebody who believed in the Bill of Rights, somebody who was, you know, for empowering the people and living by the, the Bill of Rights and the constitutional order as understood by, you know, maximum amount of freedom. But FDR changed that. That's what they do. They always come in under cloak and it's like they're termites. They, they come in and they destroy whatever it is, and then they have to get into another mask and then they destroy that and then another mask until they're finally revealed. So watch this. History starts at communists, then they're progressives, then Woodrow Wilson scares the hell out of people. So they, they morph and they put a new mask on and they say they're liberals until we get to this point. You know where in around 2000, where Hillary Clinton finally says, I'm a proud early 20th century American progressive, because liberal. They had destroyed the word liberal so much that everybody was like, I don't want to vote for a liberal. So they became progressive again because you had forgotten what progressive meant under Woodrow Wilson in the early part of America. So they went back to progressive. Now they've destroyed the word progressive again and they've exposed themselves as who they really are. To begin with, communists, communist people who believe in giant State. They don't believe in the Bill of Rights. They don't believe in the U.S. constitution when, when Donald Trump said at the State of the Union this weekend, how do you, how do you not stand for that? How do you not stand for that? How are you not standing? How are you not applauding? The answer is because they don't believe in those things. That's not them just going, I can't give him a win. They don't believe in the United States of America as constituted by our founders. They don't believe that. They don't believe in the Declaration of Independence. They don't believe in the Bill of Rights as it was intended, as it was written. They'll pick and choose. So Billy is absolutely right. We really gotta stop calling these people liberals because they're not liberal. Is somebody who, you know, Alan Dershowitz, as much as I disagree with Alan Dershowitz and I disagree with him vehemently on a lot of stuff. I at least respect him because he is an actual classic liberal. He's not a progressive. He's a classic liberal who believes in the Bill of Rights. That's not what a progressive is and that's certainly not what you were seeing sitting at the State of the Union. You are not seeing that. You are seeing early American, early 20th century American progressives, which are the eugenics people and the communists. Maybe the first thing that Woodrow Wilson said was university. See if this rings true today. What is the job of universities? He was the president of, of Princeton when he said this. What is the main job of a university? Answer that in your own head for a second. Here's what he said it was to make a man or a boy the most unlike his father as possible. I think they're accomplishing that. Back in just a minute. First, let me tell you about American financing. Stress shrinks your thinking structure expands it. Why is it people are having a hard time understanding the world because of all the stress in the world and then you add financial pressure. Your world gets so small so fast.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Sorry, sorry. I had things turned out. I'm just reading, Just reading a story that Ricky just got because what was it, Ricky, you just said about what I said on the air a minute ago. You were fact checking.

So here's the. So here's the thing. And I actually, I have to amend. I'm not sure I am. You should go back and look again. I'm right about the. I'm right about the voting. But I, I understood that it was all text, that they are pushing for all texts to be in Arabic.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, let me, Let me. She just sent me this story. This is what I was reading. When Lama Ali Ahmad became a naturalized US citizen in 2021, she was eager to become a voter. In Lebanon, where she's from, elections were often derailed by crisis. But here she had faith in the process. She registered and voted in the municipal election the same day. That night, she gathered her family at the Dearborn Home for special dinner of steak, chicken and Taboola and asked them how good it felt or told good it felt to finally be heard. That's the moment quoting. That's the moment where I really felt that I was an American citizen. Last year, she celebrated another civic triumph, voting on a ballot printed in Arabic, her first language. The experience wasn't perfect, she said. She also speaks English and French. The Arabic translation instructions about questions is more formal than familiar, even awkward in places. But the impact on her was profound. Quote, I felt I was at home when I voted in Arabic. I felt I was at home when I voted in Arabic. Then go home. You're not. Why must you come here and change us so you can feel at home? You came here for a reason. Stop changing us. It is one thing to bring your culture and melt into the American culture. We are a melting pot. We always have been. That's what we should strive for. Bring the best of what you had, Bring it with you and melt into American culture so we become richer. That's not what you're talking about. Okay, You're. Wait until you see this special. We've been working, what, three or four months on this special in our Wednesday night specials to me, did not go deep enough. That's one Reason why I started the Torch. We have a special on March 19, so coming in just a couple of weeks, exposing the blueprints for conquering of the West. They are conquering the west and it's happening here in America. And I will show you the blueprints in a 90 minute special you do not want to miss. It will happen on the torch March 19th. It will be live. You don't want to miss this. And if you're in Texas, Prop 10, vote yes. Here's something uncomfortable. You don't always realize that you're missing things. You just notice you're working a little harder. You lean in a little bit more during conversations or you ask people, can you say that again? You then pretend you caught it the second time even though you didn't. By the end of a long dinner or family gathering, you're worn out, not from talking, but from straining just to keep up. This is what gradual hearing loss feels like for a lot of people. You're still present, you're still engaged. But everything takes more effort than it used to. What holds people back from doing something about it isn't just pride. It is honestly, the hassle, the appointments, the tests, the follow ups, the price tags that make hearing feel like a major medical product. Audien Hearing is trying to make that first step a lot simpler. Their Atom series over the counter hearing aids are designed to be approachable, easy to use without prescriptions, no complications, no fittings.

I want to hear your comments and your questions. 888-727 Beck, what is it that has been on your mind? What is it that we missed? What is it we need to clarify? I'd like to hear from you. 888-727-BECK. Also, I cannot take John Thune. I don't understand how this guy is actually trying to make the case that the standing filibuster is destroying the filibuster or will set the Senate back on all of their Important duties. What is more important than saving and protecting the vote? Without a protected vote you have nothing. Nothing, John. And by the way, what's this gonna do if he fails? It's gonna force Donald Trump to do an executive order which the executive order will go farther than what the Save America act would do. Pick your poison. Which do you want? I'd like to do it through Congress. But Congress, they are nothing but frickin weasels. John Thune is the biggest amongst them. You know you thought you got rid of Mitch McConnell. You didn't. You got John Thune. I'm gonna go into this here in just a second and I wanna really set the record straight for those senators who are trying to convince you that somehow or another this is gonna damage the country or damage the filibuster. Learn history you boobs. We'll do it next. First let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's Patriot Mobile. Your current mobile company does not need you to agree with the things they believe in. They just need you not to pay attention to it. That's the business model. They keep the good, the coverage good enough knowing that you do not want to cancel your mobile phone company. They keep your bill on autopay. They keep you busy and while you're not looking they're using billions of in revenue to support causes in policies and organizations that are most likely completely out of step with your values. They don't ask for your permission. You know, they don't check whether you're on board. They just assume you're not going to notice. And it's their money now you gave it to them. You do have a choice. Patriot Mobile offers reliable nationwide coverage on the exact same networks and cell towers and everything else. They're the same spine and they are using US based customer service people that will make your switch really easy. They make your whole experience a lot better. You're going to save money. It's very very competitive and they don't support the things that you disagree with.

Patriot mobile.com Beck okay, was I a little too harsh on those members of Congress? I feel bad. Let me explain the standing filibuster. Let me start at the beginning, if you want to know how America and the filibuster is supposed to work, all you need to do really is watch Mr. Smith goes to Washington. Okay? Remember Jimmy Stewart? He was standing at the table, just a glass of water, stack of papers and the weight of his convictions. He, in that movie, he was a man all alone and he was willing to lose it all. That's key. This is the original filibuster. Not a trick, not a procedural ghost, not a backroom email that says, hey, we're blocking this. A man standing, speaking, burning daylight and paying a price. So what does filibuster mean? What does the word fill it up buster mean? It actually comes, it's from the Dutch and it's like Virgil Pewter or something like that. And it basically means pirate. It's a freebooter, okay? Somebody who seizes control. That's what filibuster means. Someone who can seize control. Early in our history in the United States Senate, that's what it meant. There was no formal filibuster rule at all. 1806, at the urging of Vice President Aaron Burr, the Senate removed its previous question motion. That was the rule that allowed a simple majority just to cut off debate. And it was considered redundant. Why? Because they got old timey. This is because the Senate was so small, they just knew gentlemen would restrain themselves. They just assumed honor. Well, history has a way of challenging assumptions, doesn't it? So for decades, they put the filibuster in and it was very, very rare. It was dramatic when it happened. It was the last stand. It was a warning flare. It was somebody who said, no, this is wrong and the people need to know it. What is the reason we have the checks and balances? Why do we have our Congress and our Senate and everything set up the way it is? One of the reasons is to slow things down because people get passionate and they make stupid Patriot act come to mind. You make stupid moves when you are heated and in the moment. So everything is built to slow things down. Filibuster was one of those things. If there was something passing, a group of people or one guy could stand up, but he had to stand and he had to speak the whole time. 1917 comes along, guess who was president at the time? Woodrow Wilson. I telling you, everything crappy about this company, this country, came from the Woodrow Wilson period or his accolade lights. So they were. There were. There was a small group of two people, both progressives. One was defoliate. What was his name? Robert, I think, from Wisconsin. He is like a godfather of progressivism, okay? And two progressives stood up because Wilson wanted to now arm merchant marine ships because war was coming. And so we were sending stuff over in the over, and, and he's like, we have to have, we have to have cannons on these ships so they can defend themselves. Two progressives actually stood up and went, no, that's, that's a prelude to war. We'll be at what you do that. We will be at war. And they said no. And so they started a filibuster. Well, that just pissed Woodrow Wilson off. How dare you stand against me. And so he told the Senate, you need a new rule. And so, so this is when that stupid word that nobody knows what it means, cloture, came to play. Okay? It was Rule 22. And it ruled that cloture meant that a super majority could end debate. Ok? It require a super majority to end debate. At first it was 2/3. In 1975, that was lowered to 3/5, 60 votes. So if you still wanted to stop something, you still had to stand there. You had to speak, and the whole country could see you again. Think of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Jimmy Stewart standing there, horse trembling, you know, collapsing under the weight of corruption and exhaustion, reading from the Constitution, from the phone book, from the soul of the Republic. But he had to stand there and speak. That scene is part of our bloodstream because it captures something really essential. If you believe enough, if you believe something is really wrong, then you must be willing to stand up and pay a price. And that may just be enduring, enduring days and days of standing up and speaking. Okay? The filibuster was not meant to be easy. It was meant to be costly because it, it separates the serious from just the political. It's costly in time, it's costly in stamina, and it is costly in political capital. If you don't believe it, you're not going to do it. And it forces whoever wants to stop things to prove that they're serious. But in 1970, things changed. Why? Well, the Senate adopted something called a two track system. And instead of grinding everything to a halt while a senator spoke, the chamber could set aside the bill and move on with other business. It's efficient, okay? And it was. The two track system solved the problem they were trying to solve, which was paralysis of the entire chamber. Okay? What was happening was because of fdr, another progressive, they had grown the administration's administrative state so large, Congress and the Senate still had to pass the laws, the rules for the administrative state. This is before they gave that up. And so they had all of these things they had to do. And so filibusters would start popping up and people would stand up and they're like, we have so much we have to do. We can't stand here with this anymore. Okay, so here's what happened. They created another problem. It turned the filibuster from a rare act of physical resistance into just a routine procedural veto before there were two track filibusters. The filibuster was exhausting and therefore scarce. And it cost the people. You had to believe it. So think of this. Why is. Why are people like me saying, enforce the standing filibuster on these guys? Why? Because we know it will cost them just like the State of the Union cost them. They are going to be arguing against. 80% of America, 71% of their own constituents believe in the Save America Act. Act. It's wildly popular. One of the most popular unifying things I have seen come through Congress in 20 years. And it will require them to pay the price with their own constituents. If you really believe that, go ahead, stand there. Tell the American people while you're. Why you're shutting down the business of this government, the business of the people, to do something the people are against. That's the price. But once you take that price away, it's effortless. You can obstruct anything you want. The real breaking point was not one speech, not one villain. It was the overload of the institution. 1806, the Senate could afford endless debate. 1970, Vietnam, civil rights, Cold War, sprawling administrative state. It could not afford any time. Efficiency became the priority, deliberation became negotiable. Notice we don't even read the bills anymore. This has just slid into hell. In trying to prevent the paralysis, the Senate made paralysis easier. Because when obstruction no longer requires stamina, it no longer requires effort, it no longer even requires conviction. It only requires strategy. And strategy is always cheaper than sacrifice. And that was the pivot point in America. History is full of institutions that were destroyed by bad intentions. But sometimes, you know, in the name of practicality, really bad things happens. And this is one of those things. So it creates the modern zombie filibuster. What is that? That's what Mike Lee and everybody else is saying we must end. Not the filibuster, the zombie filibuster, where a senator doesn't have to stand, they don't have to speak, they don't have to read the phone book, they don't even have to make a case they just have to signal an intent to filibuster, and then that bill can't come back to the floor without 60 votes to proceed. That's unreasonable, absolutely unreasonable, because it doesn't require any sweat. There's no spectacle, there's no accountability, and the pirate is now a phantom. So here's the key question. If you require your elected senator to stand and talk and defend, why he wants to obstruct something, especially this popular, are you really weakening the filibuster? No. No. You are not Senators. You are restoring it. You are restoring responsibility. You are restoring the demand that you actually believe in something, because the American people do. Returning to a talking filibuster does not change the cloture threshold. It does not abolish minority rights. It does not alter the law or the rule. It changes the burden. Under the zombie filibuster, the majority must muster 60 votes automatically. Under the standing filibuster, the minority just has to continuously hold the floor. That's not destroying the filibuster. That's demanding conviction. Period. The zombie filibuster flips the entire Constitution on its head. The framers designed a Senate to cool the passions. They were the saucer to the House's hot teapot. But they did not design paralysis by default. Congress requires supermajorities in very specific cases. Treaties, impeachments, constitutional amendments. But ordinary legislation, majorities rule. The filibuster evolved as a tool of extended debate, not as a permanent 60 vote requirement for everything. You can't get anything done. And when the minority can silently raise the threshold to 60 without lifting a finger, without standing there and saying, this is why it's important, you have not preserved deliberation. You have institutionalized gridlock. You know, accountability is everything. Everything. Why would you oppose a zombie filibuster? Accountability matters. If you're willing to halt the nation's business, you should be willing to stand in the well of the Senate and explain to the American people why, hour after hour, day after day, look into the camera. Let the American people decide whether your stand is heroic or absurd. The talking filibuster forces sunlight. The zombie filibuster thrives in the darkness. When senators no longer have to fight physically for their objections, they object more often. Wouldn't you? The cost drops, the usage skyrockets. The Senate becomes a graveyard of legislation. Not because ideas were defeated, but because no one had to sweat. A talking filibuster disciplines both sides. The majority must listen, the majority must. The minority must endure. That tension is healthy. It's constitutional muscle. So it doesn't change laws, it changes behavior. Period. It means fewer automatic 60 vote hurdles. It would mean only the most serious objections turned into full fledged filibusters. It would mean that when a bill dies, it dies in public. And we all should know where you stood and who stood and what you stood for. The Senate calls itself the world's greatest deliberative body. Well, deliberation requires a voice. Not emails. Not procedural threats. Voices. Period. Stop playing the game, Senators. We know the truth. Stop playing the game. Do what America is demanding on both sides in overwhelming numbers. What you pass. Have the balls to stand up for something you actually believe in. Back in a minute. All right, let me talk to you about Burn a launcher. Most people. But you know, this is why it's good thing I don't live in Washington D.C. because I would be in all of their offices. People want, people want to avoid fights. And that's the part that gets misunderstood all the time about self defense. The goal is not to be a hero. It's not to prove something, it's not to escalate. It's not to get into a fight. The goal is to create space and have everybody get home safely. But here's the problem. A lot of self defense options come with consequences that are permanent and there are legal risks, especially if you don't live. If you live in a blue state, good luck with that. It could change your life forever. The Burner launcher was designed for that space between doing nothing and using deadly force. It's a non lethal personal security device that can disable a threat from a distance, giving you the ability to stop a situation without taking a life. It is legal in all 50 states. It doesn't require a permit anywhere. And most people don't want to fight. They just want the con, the confidence that. But we're all going to go home safely. Okay. Byrna.

It is 80% American. Tell me the last thing we as America agreed on at 80%. And yet they're still defi. They're finding ways to divide us. And it's our side who has promised they were going to do what the American people were asking them to do. And they don't have the balls to stand up and just say, make your case. Make your case. They are weasels. They're spineless. They're wussy wieners. And I'm tired of it. I'm tired of it. Call John Thune's office and say, make them stand up and defend what they say they're actually for. Oh, you get me, Red. Don't bring it up again. All right, let me talk to you about preborn. Most life altering decisions are made under pressure. And that pressure is a terrible advisor. When a woman finds herself facing unexpected pregnancy, the clicking talk inside of her mind is loud. Friends weigh in. Fear gets a voice. Everything feels urgent. It's hard to think clearly. Pressure rushes people and it pushes them towards quick decisions just to relieve the anxiety. What changes that dynamic is information. And when a mom can see an ultrasound, when she can hear the heartbeat in that quiet moment, she can see that that's a developing baby. It's not a theory. Everything slows down. It becomes real, it becomes personal. And then preborn is there with these great nurses that are like, we'll help you. We'll help you. I know you feel you're alone. You're not. We'll be there. What do you need for the next couple of years? We're there for you. You. It's not about shouting and arguing. It's about replacing pressure with clarity so women can slow down and make an informed decision. For $28, you can provide that life saving ultrasound. Would you dial pound250, say the keyword, baby, it's 28 bucks for an ultrasound. Pound250.babypreeborn.com back.

Oh my gosh. Hello, my name is Glenn. I'm glad you're here. I'm just trying to, you know, I gotta say thank you to the FCC for making me a better man today. Because if it wasn't for the FCC rules, that monologue might have ended up a little differently. But thank you for imposing those rules and, and making me enforce them, because it would have been a mighty big fine. But, oh, my gosh, if you missed what we were just talking about, I got into the. The filibuster and in John Thune and what weasel wiener senators are actually saying. And, you know, Donald Trump is going to do it anyway. He's going to do it anyway. And I'd really prefer not to do it through executive order, because I think he's going to include things that, you know, you just can't. I just don't want the federal government. I'm not going to. I got to stop talking about this anyway. Just make them stand and defend themselves. Let me go to Zachary. Hello, Zachary, how are you?

So I was just wondering. I was told. So I've been talking to a bunch of people from my school who are conservative, Republican, like, and they've had some, like, they've been wondering if, like J.D. vance, like, next term, let's say elected, then, like, will he be able to keep the ball rolling?
- [68:37]
Glenn Beck
Well, I, you know, I don't know, Zach, and I don't think you should assume that J.D. vance is going to be the guy. I mean, I, I just talked to Rubio and Vance at the same time. We were in the hallway outside of the Oval Office, and they both came one at a time. And then. And, and the, And Secretary Rubio, he came out first. I was talking to him, and I said, what. What is. I mean, I've always liked you, Marco, but, man, you are becoming. You're just like a machine. What is going on? And he said, oh, it's him. Pointing to the Oval Office. He said, like, the guy is just. I mean, he is just telling us what to do every day, and we just do it. And he's just. He's got it. And then J.D. vance came in and, and saw that Marco was there, and we were talking and, And I said, JD we're just talking about how amazing this administration is. And he said, without hearing Marco, he said, it's him. He said, he is just. He is on it 24 hours a day. And he said, he just, every day he's like, what should we do? Next. What. What can we do better? What do we have to do today? And I just heard JD Talk about this and said, you know, we need to take some time and say, hey, this is what we've done. Donald Trump is not. He. He knows the clock is ticking. And, and I'm not sure anyone will get that as much, but I do like the idea that J.D. vance and Marco Rubio both were in this administration and saw how it can be done. But I wouldn't write off Ron DeSantis either. I mean, I think Ron DeSantis was remarkable and still is remarkable in Florida. He has transformed this state. And, I mean, I. I don't know. I think we have a lot of people on the bench. They've got Gavin Newsom, you know, we have Marco Rubio, J.D. vance, and Ron DeSantis. Just those three alone. And I'd take any of those three at least at this point. I mean, I like, like to hear. But they're going to be different presidents than this guy and possibly vastly different. Vastly different.

And it seems like now we're actually losing some, some Patriots. You know, Chip Roy is going for AG of Texas. You got Marsha Blackburn and Byron Donald's running for governors of their respective state. What are we gonna do? I mean, there's a good chance we're gonna get rhinos back into to Congress instead of some of these Patriots that are all leaving.
- [71:47]
Glenn Beck
So you're going to also have some really good people come in. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I haven't been watching what is coming our way. And don't dismiss. You know, you have Chip Roy going to become the A.G. hopefully, in my opinion, become the A.G. then you have, you know, Marsha Blackburn, you know, running for governor. Same thing with Byron running for governor. And I think, I think that's good. The states must be protected. There Have. There has to be a line with strong, strong states. So I don't mind that some of the best people are going out and becoming and running for governor of their states because the states need to be really super strong. But that is another reason, Nessie. I've found a way to do it. I got to get off this because I'm going to. I'm going to talk to you about the Save America act, and you've already heard that rant. But that's why it's so important. You know, you've got to be able to get the right people elected. And when I say the right people, here's what I mean by that. People that actually people are voting for. I don't care. If we lose election, I'll be very upset. I'll be very concerned. But if we lose elections because the people have decided to go in another direction, I'm fine. Ish. What I'm not fine with is either side being able to cheat and put their finger on the scale. Let the people decide. Period. Let the people decide. They have tried to take away our voice in every way possible. And by making it so anyone can vote, so you can't track where the ballots are coming from or who's going to vote or any of that, by making it so easy to cheat, they've taken your ultimate voice away. And that has to stop. That has to be the first step. Can I get off of this for a second? Let me see. Let me talk about, you know what? But let me talk about something that hit me a few days ago. I love Martin Short. I don't think he likes me, but that's okay. I like him. And he has made me laugh forever. He and Steve Martin together are just the best. And Martin Short has the same kind of John Candy feel to him that you just tell underneath. He's just a good, good guy. He's just a good guy. His daughter, who's 40, 42, died from an apparent suicide. And if I may just speak to an audience of one here, Martin, you gave the world and me personally, something really rare. True, unforced laughter. And the kind that catches you off guard and is so innocent and it reminds you that joy is still alive. I think that's your comedy. Is Joy. It is. And now this week, it's silence. And it's from a tragedy that is unexplainable and unimaginable. And there's no script for it. There's no punchline, no timing. When suicide comes into a family, it doesn't Knock politely. It just blows everything up. And it leaves for a while, maybe in some ways forever. Love with no place to go. And I speak about this with experience. I have lost two family members to this insanity and this darkness. I stood at the edge of that cliff in my 20s. I watched my own children. I mean, be taken to the hospital because they brushed against this darkness. I know what it feels like. And I want you to know, Martin, you. You have given millions of people, millions of people you have made laugh. People like me. And when I heard it, and I know I'm not alone in this. When I heard the news about your daughter, I just wished there was some way I could return the favor. Because you've made me laugh at times I didn't think I could. And this week I have wished so hard that I, or anyone could sit next to you and convince you how much you're loved and give back just a fraction of the joy that you just hand out without any effort. Millions of people are praying for you, for your family, and the kind of comfort that doesn't come from words, but from presence. It's important for me personally, to speak out about these things, not just to the individual, but. If you lose somebody this way, It never makes sense. One thing I learned after too many years went by. My mother was the first time I had a suicide in my family. And I was too young. And I have learned since. Write everything down. Write it all down. Not just the big moments, but the little ones. The good, the bad, the ugly. All of it. The way their voice sounded when they said your name. How I wish I could remember my mom's laugh. Or some of the phrases that she only used. Or the way they walked into a room. Write it all down. The flaws. Even the flaws. Especially maybe the flaws. Because it is the small things and the small details that fade first. The texture of who they are, the music of them. And that's what makes people real in our memories. And soon they fade. And I know your daughter will never fade. But some of the texture might. And grief tends to blur, but writing sharpens it. I hope. I can only pray that people who face this kind of situation can find God. They promise that death doesn't get the final world, that families. That we live again and families live again and families are together and they're eternal. Because that's the only thing that would get me through all of this. It's a. A promise that doesn't erase the ache, but it anchors it. So, Martin Short, you're not alone. And one day laughter will return to you in an honest way. Not because this didn't matter, but because love still does. And love in the end is stronger than the darkness that tries to swallow it. But until you find that laughter again and we get the joy of seeing your joy, know that some of us that you don't know are thinking an awful lot about you and your family. And we stand with you more in a minute. My Patriot Supply if your idea of emergency food is, you know, a few cans of beans in the back of the pantry, probably time to upgrade, you know the plan.

She's a VIP caller on the insider hotline and I understand it's her birthday today, so we have to get to Susan. Hi Susan.
- [82:15]
Ann Bauer
Hi, how are you? Can you hear me? I'm fine.
- [82:19]
Glenn Beck
Yes. Yeah, you can legally drink today, I understand.
- [82:23]
Ann Bauer
Oh yeah. For a lot of years.
- [82:26]
Glenn Beck
A lot of years. Lot of years. Well, welcome Susan. How can I help you?
- [82:32]
Ann Bauer
I was just wondering. We've got a torch army and I want to know if you think it would matter if everyone called John Thune's office today and said there will be no more political contributions made to any Republican until the SAVE act is passed.
- [82:49]
Glenn Beck
Yeah, I do think it would be if everybody was nice. You know, they, they tend to blow off people and they categorize everybody as oh well, they're just haters and they're just, you know, whatever. If everybody was nice and said, look, I sure would appreciate his support, you know, it's 80%. And just want you to know there's a lot of us that will not ever contribute to any Republican, any Republican if this isn't passed because it's 80% popular and there is absolutely no reason. There's nothing more important than saving the republic by saving the vote. I think that, you know, I think that works. But it would require a lot of people to call John Thune's office right now. I guess you could grok his office number. We might do that. And it's, it might just happen to sleep slip out of my mouth next hour. But I would call. Jonathan, be nice. That's why I'm not calling be nice. Fox News is now streaming live on Fox 1. When it matters most, turn to the voices you trust.

Earlier this week, I read a tweet thread that I just absolutely loved and it came from Ann Bauer. She said, I had an experience yesterday with a Minnesota awful. If you don't know what an awful is, it's a acronym for affluent white female liberal. She said, I had a experience yesterday with a Minnesota awful. I'd like to share. Nice woman. Autism mom, about 60. She wrote to ask about how our move went and sent me like a zillion pics from the Renee Good memorial and those angels Frank quotes. Everyone in Minnesota is circulating. Friends, I lost my mind because we're on FCC rules. She said my text back to her was harsh. Stop. This is not the Holocaust. Six million Jews were murdered plus countless others. It's an obscene comparison. Do not. That was my message. And for 20 minutes, I saw bubbles appear and then vanish. And I thought, well, I'll never hear from her again. Wait until you hear the rest of the story. Ann joins me here in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about rapid radios. Our job sites don't work on guesswork. They run on coordination. And maybe that sounds like a no brainer, you know, but it's really not. When you have crews spread out all across a property or even a state, equipment moving, deliveries, arriving, deadlines hanging over everything, you cannot afford miscommunication you have to somebody you know wondering where the materials are, whether the machine is clear or safety issue just popped up on the other side of the site, you need to know. You need instant reliable communication. The problem is cell phones aren't always built for that kind of environment. Signals drop, calls go to voicemail, texts get miss. Every delay costs time and money. And Rapid radios gives you push to talk communication that works right out of the box with nationwide coverage and no complex setup. You just turn them on. Your team is connected. No guesswork, no chasing people down. Just clear, direct coordination when it matters most. Because on the on a job site, efficiency isn't really a luxury. It is the difference between staying on schedule or falling behind sometimes staying Alive. The new Rad1 officially live now head on over to Rapidradios.com and get the radio built. For real life communication has just been redefined. Only with rapid radios.com and welcome to the program. How are you?
- [87:36]
Ann Bauer
I am well. And I loved your dramatic reading of my tweet. I think we should, we should just do that all the time.
- [87:45]
Glenn Beck
And I just loved your tweet, by the way, and is an essayist and she is the co founder of Story Allies. So tell us what happened next after that.
- [87:57]
Ann Bauer
So I assumed that I had mouthed off and would not hear back from this woman whom I've known for 25 years. That's happened a lot with people in Minneapolis. But after about 25 minutes, I got a text from her and she said, oh, sorry, I didn't think of that. Perhaps I should have. I didn't mean to offend. I was only sharing photos of the items at the places of memorial. Yes, you are correct. It is not a fair comparison. And I just was gobsmacked. I was like, you know, what a gracious response.
- [88:43]
Glenn Beck
So then the bubbles on your side went off. And what did you write?
- [88:50]
Ann Bauer
I said, thank you. I have had many people. I had had. I've been deluged by that Anne Frank quote that everyone was sending about. You know, they came to round us up from people in Minneapolis during the ice raids. And I had just hit my limit. And so I said to this woman, Tim Waltz was censured by the Holocaust Museum for his constant comparisons to mass genocide, which was something I'd been so happy to see. You know, this governor who I. Who I have been loathing, frankly and terrified of for years. And at one point, he is a
- [89:37]
Glenn Beck
little terrifying in a wimpy sort of way.
- [89:40]
Ann Bauer
Oh, he's terrifying because he is both evil and dumb. And I went all around the country saying this before the election of 2024. I was like, oh, people, you do not want this man a heartbeat away from the presidency. But when I said this to her about Tim Waltz's being really harshly, I thought, criticized by the Holocaust Museum, accurately harshly criticized, she said, oh my. I was not aware. And of course, the reason she wasn't aware is because Minneapolis media is a blackout when it comes to any news that does not reflect wonderfully upon the governor. And so this very smart lady who I've known for all these years, who really does care and is deeply religious in her own way and would never say something that she thought was offensive, had no idea. No idea. Thought that this was just a marvelous comparison to make.
- [90:56]
Glenn Beck
And so then what happened?
- [90:59]
Ann Bauer
So I asked her what news sources she read, and she, of course, said, the Star Tribune. The Star Tribune was her, you know, compass.
- [91:09]
Glenn Beck
Yeah, right.
- [91:10]
Ann Bauer
And the Star Tribune is run by a publisher named Steve Grove, who served as Commissioner of Employment and Economic Development under Tim Walt, who is like an arm of the state administration. And it is shocking how the news in the Star Tribune specifically elsewhere, to some degree, is shaped in order to protect this man, which is how you all ended up saying in whatever fall 2024, my God, how can all these things just be coming out about the lies that he's told and the. And the service that he didn't perform that he said he did, and the trips to China that happened at really hanky times? How is that not reported? Well, it wasn't reported because Minneapolis has only ever covered him as if he's, you know, the little prince who ascended and rules bountifully over the land.
- [92:20]
Glenn Beck
And you said to her, at this, at this point, you know, what was it? I believe Tim Walsh ginned up this dangerous, violent situations, and he did it to run cover for fraud investigations. I think that's absolutely accurate. Absolutely accurate.
- [92:37]
Ann Bauer
Right.
- [92:37]
Glenn Beck
And she replied, what?
- [92:41]
Ann Bauer
Fraud investigations?
- [92:43]
Glenn Beck
Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. This is my favorite line from you. After you said that. After you wrote, you know what Friday you just wrote, oh, sweet Jesus. That is exactly. I mean, that is the nicest way of saying, good God Almighty, help us. Oh, sweet Jesus.
- [93:03]
Caller
Oh.
- [93:04]
Ann Bauer
So how do you even encapsulate in, you know, a text message? I happened to be sitting at Bradley Airport waiting for a flight. How do I say, oh, well, the five to six years of rampant, ongoing state sponsored fraud that has been sucking billions of dollars, both state and federal, into Minnesota NGOs and then funneling it back to the DFL, that fraud. That's what I wanted to say, but I was like, well, she said, can you send me some articles? Well, here's the problem. Can I send her some articles?
- [93:49]
Caller
Sure.
- [93:51]
Ann Bauer
I had to be very choosy.
- [93:53]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. Will they be articles from sources she will find credible?
- [93:57]
Ann Bauer
Exactly. Could I find articles in the Star Tribune? Here's what I could find. An individual, oh, such and such a defendant was sentenced on this fraud that is completely freakish. And we have no idea how it happened, but luckily we sent the bad guy to jail. That kind of article I could find in the Star Tribune. They had done, you know, little smatterings of, oh, bad Somali criminal, basically. Yeah, yeah, we sent these people away. Don't worry, it's all good. And Tim Waltz is heading up fraud prevention. What I did was I found
- [94:43]
Caller
one
- [94:44]
Ann Bauer
or two pieces that made some links. You know, how could the Waltz administration be ignorant of. This was the way that it came out in, for instance, National Public Radio and the New York Times. And I did send those. I knew she wouldn't read anything with a paywall because, you know, sure, she has her own life, her own media choices. I knew she wouldn't read anything from a right leaning source. So everything from Fox or, you know, Daily Wire, things like that was out. And so I sent her, you know, these few articles. And about an hour later I got a text that said, oh my God, do we ever get the money back? And what in the world do you say? I really, I was like, oh, dear lady, no. In fact, you don't get the money back.
- [95:51]
Glenn Beck
No.
- [95:51]
Ann Bauer
It is electing your attorney General again. No longer my Attorney general, thank God, because I left.
- [96:02]
Glenn Beck
But where did you move? Did you move to Connecticut? I heard you say Bradley Airport. You didn't move to Connecticut?
- [96:06]
Ann Bauer
Oh, no, I was out in Connecticut doing a speech. No, no, because that would have been like the junior version.
- [96:17]
Glenn Beck
Okay.
- [96:19]
Ann Bauer
No, I'm a proud resident of Thomas Massey's district in Kentucky.
- [96:26]
Glenn Beck
No. Okay, good, good, good, good. And you know, I read this and I thought you handled this so well. I wonder if you got the first response of, I'm sorry because I don't even know. Are you Jewish?
- [96:45]
Ann Bauer
Yeah, I mean, in the way that one is.
- [96:47]
Glenn Beck
So I'm wondering if you got. I wonder if you got the right. But I wonder if you got the first benefit of the doubt because she knew I better be careful on this one. Or if she would have reacted that to somebody who wasn't. Didn't have any Jewish background at all.
- [97:05]
Ann Bauer
I Do I think she would have. I think just a genuinely nice lady. So how do we.
- [97:15]
Glenn Beck
How do we. How do we spread that?
- [97:18]
Jason
How.
- [97:19]
Glenn Beck
How do you know? I mean, I talked to so many people, are like, I can't talk to anybody. I say anything. And it's just. It's like talking to a wall. How do we spread this? How do we change what we do to be able to find those people like her that are genuinely good people that are just lost? What'd you learn?
- [97:37]
Ann Bauer
I'm so sorry. I don't know. I don't know if I have an answer. She is the outlier. I have lost almost every contact I have in Minneapolis St. Paul. If you have the time for it, I will tell you a story about just a week earlier
- [97:59]
Glenn Beck
and hang. Hold on. Then just give me one minute and we'll come back and I'll hear your story. We're talking to Ann Bauer. You can find her@annbauer.com. all right. Real estate agents I trust. This is my company. And it started out of frustration. My brother and I were both selling our house at the same time. Neither of us knew what the hell we were doing. We didn't know, you know, how to find a real estate agent that could sell in bad markets, down markets, different markets. We didn't know even what made a good real estate agent. You know, how do you even find one? You just, you know, that person's face was on a bus. Okay. We built Real estate agents I trust. After I started working with the 500 Best Real Estate agents, according to the Wall Street Journal, on another project. And I started working with them and I started asking them questions and how is it you what. What makes a good real estate? And they all had the same answers. And they all had. I just realized there is. There is a reason all of these people are so good. And so we started a company that goes out and looks for those kinds of people. Those 500 real estate agents are part of this. Plus all the people that we found like that, and we kept it at a relatively small number. We have agents all across the country, but we may not have one in your area, because we don't. We want to make sure we have it right. Because when I say you can trust these people to get the job done, let me say this. In this down market with real estate for the last two years, our agents have had the best two years of their career. How is that possible? Because they know how to work in tough markets. That's how Real estate agents I trust.com free service to you. I don't charge you anything. Real estate agents I trust Dot com. Go there now, tell us where you're moving and you're moving from and to, and we'll help you find the right real estate agent. Real estate agents I trust Dot com. Ten seconds. Station id. Okay. I have a feeling this story is not going to end as well as the first story. This is.
- [99:59]
Ann Bauer
I'm sorry.
- [100:00]
Glenn Beck
That's all right. Somebody that just the week before in mini, in Minneapolis or Minnesota, same kind
- [100:06]
Ann Bauer
of situation in the Twin Cities. A long time colleague, like someone I have adored, someone whose kids I have taken care of, who has been involved in my family's life, wrote to me and said, I want to run for city council and my first foray is going to be this speech about the ICE raids. Would you help me? I know you're kind of in the center. Basically he said, I know that you can help me appeal to both sides. He insisted on my getting on signal so that we could have private communications. It was all very cloak and dagger. And then he started sending me all this stuff about ICE agents coming into town and abducting, that was the word that he used, abducting citizens. And I wrote back to him as I would anyone who was going to speak and said, you know, I think one of the things that you need to do is lose the language that's so provocative and really talk about what is. No one is being kidnapped. This language is part of the left trying to bring about crisis and I think you need to like take it down a level. Well, he went off on me.
- [101:34]
Glenn Beck
Okay, wait a minute. He reached out to you to say help me because I know you can help me moderate and get people from the other side. And then he goes off on you for giving the advice, which seems pretty reasonable. Your advice does.
- [101:53]
Ann Bauer
Thank you. I, I, we disagree on politics. I would say I have moved slightly to the right, he has moved hundred thousand miles to the left. But I think of him as an intelligent person and I really did want to help him write the best speech that he could. And I'd already put a couple of hours into it. I got back a 2000 word rant that was, you know, language I can't really use according to your FCC rules. And it was about how angry he was at me and people like me and how we didn't understand. And it was Trump's, you know, desecration of Minneapolis St. Paul and they were all heroes who were being kidnapped by masked men. And so in that case I felt I was dealing with a similarly wonderful person who would listen and negotiate and find some middle ground. And I was not. I was not. And I don't know exactly how to judge anymore because I've been surprised a number of times. In the case of the thread that I wrote, I was surprised in a good way. In the other case, I was surprised in a really terrible way.
- [103:23]
Glenn Beck
I have so many friends that, that claim they used to hate me because they were on the left and now we're good friends and they say the same thing. I can't believe everything that I said about many people on the right. They're actually very open minded and we can have conversations and disagree on things and you go to the left and it is. There's no room for disagreement. There's none.
- [103:52]
Ann Bauer
There is none. Which is another answer to the question that you asked me. How do we go out there? How do we reach people? The problem with reaching the woman in my thread who I hate to refer to as the awful because she isn't, but you know, the woman I identified as a Minnesota awful, is that there is zero benefit for her to adopt a kind of centrist stance or look at things a little more critically. She will be lambasted. She will lose her standing, social, financial, professional. It will be over for her, as it was over for me there.
- [104:33]
Glenn Beck
That is so sad. There's no way out because most people just don't want that in their life. They're not. They're not. They don't understand the peril that we're actually in. And they're like, it's just not worth it because they just believe that things will really never change that much to get so bad. But that's how bad things have happened in the past. And I really appreciate your conversation. Thank you so much. Thanks for sharing that. A positive story. Positive story. Thank you.
- [105:06]
Ann Bauer
As do I. And thank you.
- [105:09]
Glenn Beck
You bet. Ann Bauer from Storyalize. You can find her at annbauer.com annbauer.com Great writer. She writes essays and it's nice to have a conversation with somebody who is trying, who is at least trying to reach out and just be sensible. I wonder how the people in nature Minneapolis, if they saw the speech, how they viewed the Ilhan Omar saying KKK for the hockey team while the rest of the room was shouting usa. She was shouting kkk. Wonder how they react to that. All right, More in a minute. All right. Let me tell you about the international fellowship. Sadly, there are children in Israel who practice shelter drills the way other children practice Fire drills. For them, the sound of a siren is not a theory or a history lesson. I mean, I remember we did the duck and cover, and I remember being under the desk, that big steel desk, and thinking, we're going to be vaporized under the desk. What difference does this make? But that was never really real. You know, we weren't having it in Israel. They have it all the time. Move, move, move. Go to a stairwell or safe room, a shelter built in the school or apartment building or out on the playground. It's a different kind of childhood. And while most of us will never experience that kind of daily threat, praise God there are families right now living that way. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews provides critical support in moments like these, funding bomb shelters, providing emergency aid, delivering food and supplies, and caring for the most vulnerable, including the elderly and the Holocaust survivors, which still are around. This is not about politics. It's about people, and especially children, who deserve to grow up with security, not constant fear. Stand with ifcj. Make sure you help those who need help. When the sirens sound, ifcj.org do it now.

If you can hear me smiling, it's because I'm going back and forth with Torch insiders in the live chat. They love this country. They're smart, funny. You want to be in this community. Lenbeck.com torch.
- [107:32]
Glenn Beck
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. It is Friday. I want to bring Jason in for the last segment and also Sarah and Ricky on the things that we might have missed of the week or things that we have to talk about. First of all, the Bohemian Grove list is out. Apparently somebody got an independent journalist got the camp membership list for last year. So the Bohemian Grove, if you don't know, the Bohemian Grove is out in California. And it's like, you know, the Bilderberger thing, you know, it's a secret society. They. They think people eat children there. And they might, I don't know. But it was, it was. It's so secret. It was, it was believed to not even exist for a while. It was just. Nobody even thought it existed. And I think Alex Jones went out with, what's his name, the BBC reporter. And they snuck in and the BBC reporter was like, what's his name? And he was like, ronson, maybe. Ron Ronson. Anyway, he was like, I couldn't believe it. We watched it. It was incredible. And they took some pictures. Well, the new list is out on who it was a member last year and who went camping last year. Paul Pelosi. No surprise. Jimmy Buffett, Conan o' Brien. Michael Bloomberg. No. No question there. Eric Schmidt, Not a surprise. Conan o'. Brien. I think that was a mistake. I think they were like. I thought you said Conan the Barbarian. Not. We wanted the Barbarian, not the comedian. Jeez. All right, well, let's just finish wrapping this baby up in gold and then light the owl and eat the baby. So I don't know what happened there. I don't know what happened there, but
- [109:24]
Ricky
why are adults going to camp?
- [109:28]
Glenn Beck
I don't know. I. I would be too freaked out to go to one of these things. I mean, like, if you were invited to the Builder burger thing. I tried to join the Builder. I thought I actually joined it. And I actually joined Build a Bear, which was weird. Weird. I was like, this is not as spooky. I mean, they're actually just stuffing bears. They're not eating children. But was wrong on that. I would just be too creeped out to go to that. John Ronson. Yeah, he's a great guy. Sarah, would you go to the Bohemian Grove if invited? Absolutely. You would. There would be so much stuff happening. Yeah, I'd be documenting all that way, too. You would document it, though. You. So you wouldn't. You're. You wouldn't be in partaking.

Ricky
It was for journalism.

Glenn Beck
It was for journalism. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Good, good, good. You'd come back. You'd be so far to. God, you'd be like, did you hear. Sorry to speak of Sarah? And then think of this. Do you hear the story? I think this happened in Atlanta where the school lunch marm is taking. She took a picture because she's walking by this desk of this kid opening up his lunchbox, and he's got a sandwich and an apple, and then he's got a vodka martini, and it's one of these cans, you know, martini, lemon martini or something. Sarah, you know about this course, right? Yeah, I think it was a cut water. Okay. Yeah, I'm sure it was. You know what, Sarah? Good for you. I stopped drinking way too early. I stopped drinking before we had all of these choices we had. You know, you had to have whiskey. You know, it was like. It was. I feel like I stopped drinking. I don't know. In frontier days, when you just go, whiskey, that's all we had. Now you got all these great choices of alcohol. I do not waste your. Don't waste your blackout kids. Don't. Don't waste them. Save them. Spread them out. Because alcohol will just get more and more fun and easier to get. And it's easily.
- [111:31]
Ricky
When I'm Looking at the photo now. I'm so sorry, Sarah. I have to jump in. She's right. It was a cut water lemon drop mark martini, which I've never heard of. So it should make you suspicious that Sarah knows what that is.
- [111:40]
Glenn Beck
Oh, not suspicious, but it's next to
- [111:43]
Ricky
Doritos and like a sandwich. And it's like, how did this happen? I know moms get tired.
- [111:50]
Glenn Beck
I will tell you that. I have walked into stores and I have grabbed a can of something that looked good, and my wife went, what are you doing? And I'm like, what? Lemonade looks good. She's like, yeah, I'm sure you'd love that lemonade. And I like, oh, crap. So maybe, maybe that's what happened.
- [112:07]
Ricky
Glenn, it's 11% alcohol.
- [112:10]
Glenn Beck
You'd enjoy. I would have enjoyed school much more, right, Sarah? Much, much more. Let's be honest. Was the, Was the glass packed? I mean, if you're going to do it properly. He's got. And he had a. Strangely, he had a little bottle of olives as well. So Hillary Clinton, when. They found out yesterday that if they are going to. I'm hearing myself come back, Sarah, whatever you just did. But I'm, but I'm. They kept asking Hillary and she kept saying, well, you'll have to ask Bill that.
- [112:52]
Ricky
Glenn, it looks like we've lost your connection. I hope that the national radio audience still has mine. Give me a thumbs up.
- [112:59]
Caller
You're all right.
- [112:59]
Glenn Beck
Good. Okay, so. So Hillary Clinton is. Hillary Clinton is testifying and they're asking her all kinds of questions about Epstein and about the Clinton Foundation. And Hillary was like, I don't know anything about that. You'll have to ask Bill. Let me ask you a question, America. When did Hillary take the pants off and give the family pants back to her husband, please? She's just throwing him under the bus. He had to be sitting there watching, going, oh, oh, really, sweetheart? Thank you. Thank you for that. So he's testifying in front of Congress and they're going to release. Supposedly they're going to release all of it soon. The Democrats, of course, demanding it. Good. I'm fine with that. And then the Democrats are also saying. And we're going to ask our own questions of some people on the other side, too. Good, good. I. You know what? There's probably Another thing that 80% of America is for and which means Congress will never do it, but 80% of us, I think, would be like, yep, you know what I would like to see. I wonder if it is higher than that if you just ask the question, would you like to see anyone from any and all parties that were involved in anything illegal having to do with underage girls and Epstein, would you like to see them go to jail? I'll bet you that number is about 80%. And again, it's the one thing that Congress won't do. They're not going to do. Yes, they are. I'm not going to say this. Yes, they are. They are going to pass the SAVE Act. By the way, I got a note from a friend that said, congress, the phone lines at the Senate are pounded right now. And so please call, please call your senators. John Thune, call his office. Be polite, be nice. You're not going to get anywhere. Could you look up John Thune's address, his email address?
- [115:02]
Ricky
I'm fairly certain we actually threw up a lot of the numbers on glenn beck.com in an article we did. And I will put that on the community page@glenn beck.com and tweet it out. And I will also tweet it out.
- [115:14]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. And give, give John Thune's email address. If you can't get through on the phone. A nicely worded email, think just, just pretend that your mother was going to read it. Okay. But it won't. You will make no difference if you are coming at them. You know, you, you know, wiener weasel, all the things that I said today. Don't say, don't say those things. Come at them with, look, this is 80% approval. We don't understand. We know the history of the filibuster. This does not change the rules. And we understand that it might bog down other things, but there is nothing more important. Plus, we demand that if they actually believe these things, which we don't think they do, they are so far out of touch with the American people. Force them to make their case. And the longer it goes, the better it is for the Republicans. What, what they did to their own brand on Tuesday at the State of the Union. You can now expand that for a month because they are out of step with the American people. They are not going to continue to do this over and over and over again because it will. It will end poorly for them. And I don't know why John Thune won't do this. He keeps saying that. Oh, well, you know, I just can't. We can't waste that time. You're not wasting it. You just had a Senate dog parade yesterday or the day before. If you have time for a dog parade, you probably have time to save the Republic with the SAVE Act. Maybe that's just me. Let me go to Glenn in Texas. Hello, Glenn.

Glenn Beck

No, no, no. I still. I still have the two ends. I'm still 2n Glenn. So formally, I still haven't booked New York. And in December, me and my wife, I still got the two ends. So me and my wife, in December, we moved here to Plano, Texas. I remember I talked to you a while back. He said, get out of New York. And thank God I got out before the massive snowstorm in Mondani.
- [118:05]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Can you imagine? I mean, it's. It's going to be insane up there.
- [118:12]
Caller
Oh, yeah. No, it's. I knew it was going to be really bad when he. Even before he got elected, I said, I kept telling some of my friends and my neighbors all. I. I said, you better get out. I said, it's really going to get worse. And he's only a month in. It's already a nightmare.
- [118:27]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. So how do you like Texas so far?
- [118:29]
Caller
Real quick. I. Oh, I love it. I love Texas. I love. The people are so nice, they're friendly, and it's just like, wow, you want to be nice to me and you don't want anything from me. It's like, when you're in New York, you're always suspicious, like, okay, what do you want from me? But another thing I wanted to share. I went to your museum yesterday. It was my birthday. And the museum, it was amazing. It was the gentleman that was given the tour, and he was, like, very knowledgeable and everything. Everything from the 1400s, 1700s, the whole history. I had. I had an amazing time. It was great.
- [119:08]
Glenn Beck
I'm so glad. I'm so glad. By the way, our American Journey Experience is open by appointment only. You can go online and make an appointment, and it's open, you know, every day. We have some big announcements we're going to be making about the museum here soon. But what was your favorite thing that you saw?
- [119:28]
Caller
I loved. I mean, seeing, like, the Star Wars, James Bond and then learning, like, about Henry Ford, like, how he felt about the Jews. Because, like, I didn't Know that. And it was like he gave, like the gentleman given the tour. He gave the good side, the bad side. And then learning about the Pilgrims and Columbus, he didn't really discover America. And it's just all the history. And the gentleman was really, really nice. And all the information that he was given, it was like, that's great. It was like something. I had an amazing experience. It was wonderful.
- [120:04]
Glenn Beck
That's great. Glenn. I'm glad you're in Texas. Have you registered to vote yet?
- [120:11]
Caller
Yes, I'm still trying to figure my way through. I know national politics, I know New York politics, but, like, trying to, you know, figure out.
- [120:20]
Glenn Beck
We went, here's what you need to know.
- [120:22]
Caller
And they had the Republican convention.
- [120:25]
Glenn Beck
Here's what you need to know. If you don't know anything else, and you can only go and vote for one thing. Go and vote for Proposition 10. I think it's voting yes on Proposition 10 that is to codify in the Texas Constitution there will be no Sharia law in the state of Texas. It has to pass in this ballot form, and then it will go to the General in November. But even if you don't vote for anybody else, I mean, you can. You can figure it out, but, you know, even if you don't, you feel under informed. Just go and vote for that. That is so important because Texas is under siege with Sharia law advocates.
- [121:09]
Caller
I have a mosque in my right behind where I live, and I escape Brooklyn of all the, you know, from the river to the sea. And now I come to Texas, see, like, overrun by Islam, which is very surprising. It's like, I think Texas has been asleep.
- [121:25]
Glenn Beck
Yeah. Well, today is your last day to do early voting, and then you can go vote next week. But please do. Glad. All right. Thank you so much for your phone call. Let me tell you about Relief Factor. Telling everybody, you're fine. I'm fine. No, I'm fine. When you're really not. That is not a strategy for success. A lot of people do it. You know, you wave off aches. You downplay. Downplay the stiffness. You don't want to be a complainer. You say, I'm good. I'm good. You know, even when you're, like, getting out of the chair and you're like, oh, my gosh, I am anything but good. It doesn't mean you have to stay this way. Relief Factor was designed to help address inflammation, which is the root cause of most of our everyday aches and pains and honestly, most of our disease as well. It's inflammation. This is a daily supplement. You take it every single day. It doesn't just mask the symptoms. It actually works with your body to reduce inflammation.
- [122:14]
Caller
Okay.
- [122:15]
Glenn Beck
Over a million people have tried relief factor and two thirds have gone on to take more month after month. It doesn't work for everybody. And this is what I love about this. They never claim it works for everybody. About 70% of the people it works for. If you're one of the 70%, you are going to thank me for this. If you're not, you're going to be out 20 bucks. But at least you know you've done everything. Three week quick start. See what it can do. You'll know within three weeks. 800 for relief. 800, the number four relief. Go to relieffactor.com and get out of pain. You show up, you work hard, you speak the truth. Truth, even when it ain't popular, that still counts for something. Back. We'll be right back. Three singers, two songs, one unforgettable performance. Do you have what it takes?

All right. Last weekend for you to become a Torch insider and a founding Torch member. Just join us now and you can do it@glennbeck.com torch. Okay, I gotta play a couple of things. First of all, at the State of the Union. Go ahead and play this guy. While I'm talking State of the Union, this guy is actually what the the Democrats went to instead of the State of Union. The guy is dressed as a giraffe singing songs like, hey, this is Tangerine Man. Get rid of brown people for me. Oh, my gosh, this guy is nuts. He is nuts. Okay, so that happened. Then Nancy Pelosi said that she thought the State of the Union was a bit too patriotic. And I wonder if she knew about Rashida Tlaib. This is while they were chanting USA at the hockey. Here's Rashida Tlaib. Play that, please. She is chanting kkk. Kkk. Was that the part, Nancy, you thought was just two political politically patriotic nuts?
