Glenn Beck (5:02)

It really is good to be right. Well, unless, unless you're on this program. Sometimes it sucks to be right because it's just kind of like, oh crap, that happened again. And we warned that this was coming. And so I've got a few warnings today for you and some off ramps for you that I think are really, really, really vital. This, this week of shows has been very, very clarifying to me, at least for the last couple of days. We've been talking about some of the polls that have come out from those who are under 39 years old, 18 to 39. And some of the results are really stunning and, and a little bit terrifying if we don't wake up soon. And I want to propose a couple of different theories for the shooting in Charlotte and I, I have not heard These expressed anyplace else, and I, I, I think they're right. And I'm gonna, It's gonna, the Charlotte story is gonna take you all the way to the Nepal story that just happened yesterday. And, and then I'm gonna give you some, some exit ramps. But first, let me start with. I got that white girl. That apparently is what the killer said on that Charlotte train where he killed Irina Zarutska. She was a, an immigrant, came from Ukraine, wanted a better life, came settled here in the Carolinas thinking America was a much safer place than the war zone. And a guy who has been in front of a judge 14 different times. 14 different times, still walking the streets. He sits behind her and for no apparent reason, just slits her throat. If you happen to be watching the blaze, I'm gonna play it for a reason. I haven't played this a whole video yet, but I want to play it because there's a reason to see all of it. So let me go. Go ahead. And can we roll cut seven, please? Here she is sitting on a train with a killer right behind. And he stands up, grabs his knife, and just rakes it across her throat. She then looks up at him in horror. She' holding her throat and then and covering her mouth. She looks down at her hands and she sees, apparently, blood. She's now passing out because she's bleeding so much. She passes out. She falls onto the ground. And she's laying there. This is five seconds now she's laying on the ground. Ten seconds, she's laying on the ground. She's now moving a little bit now 15 seconds and she's laying on the ground. About 20 seconds before this video cuts off, she's laying there for 20 seconds. Okay. After a violent attack. Now I want to show you another camera from a different angle that is showing the full train from the, from the same camera distance, but a different perspective. Shows the back of the train, shows her sitting in the front seat right by that door. And everybody else on the train, go ahead and play. Cut 8 now shows the same scene. She is sitting there. He just slits her throat. You see somebody, three people. One person gets up and walks away. Another person behind the killer, he just sits there and is watching. And the woman next to her. Play this again, please. The woman sitting across the aisle looks at him, looks at her, watches it happen. Take a quick glance and seeing that she's bleeding, does nothing but looks away. She grabs her purse and is getting ready to walk away. This girl is bleeding to death, and no one does anything. And the killer apparently says, I got that white girl. The media does not cover this for a week. Doesn't cover it. If it wasn't for podcasting, talk radio and X, you'd never know this story. You wouldn't have known this story. Okay, now let me. Let me set the scene here that I don't think she was. She wasn't killed by a knife. She was killed by indifference on multiple fronts. This woman was killed by indifference. Behind her, a man with a history of violence has the blade. Indifference. He doesn't care. And apparently nobody cares that this guy's in and out of jail and in and out of the court system and they just keep letting him out. Indifference to his crimes. The passengers around her, indifference. One stands up and walks away. Woman across the aisle turns her head. They do nothing. Nothing. So let me ask the first question. What happens to a people, a society, a civilization when fear, apathy, or self preservation outweigh the moral duty to act? Nobody feels like they have a moral duty to act here. What happens to that civilization, that society? You know the answer. Now the other layer on this is the killer. Arrest 14 times. 14 times. Assaults, armed robbery, five years in prison. Prosecutors had the chance time and time again to keep him behind bars. Instead, they choose to release him back into the community. Police had just been called to his house. The guy was clearly mentally unstable. Nobody does anything. The prosecutor. They're not looking for justice. This prosecutor is not looking for justice. This prob. Prosecutor has abdicated their role and it cost a young woman her life. So here's what I want to ask you. Don't we hold people accountable for negligence? When somebody's inaction leads to tragedy, don't we hold them accountable? The answer Is Yes. In 1967, the Supreme Court even ruled that the state itself bears responsibility when due process is denied. But how often does that happen? Never. In fact, in New York, we see the opposite. Citizens who do step in have been prosecuted. Daniel Penny comes to mind. Former Marine. He intervenes on a subway. Jordan Neely is threatening passengers. Neely dies in the struggle, and Penny is the one who faces the charges. Think about that. The man who acted to protect others on a train did the right thing. Prosec predators who fail to act against known predators let them walk free. They go after this guy. What message does that send? It's safer to look away than to get involved. Don't get involved. Don't get involved. That's a crime in and of itself to teach that. Why aren't we going after prosecutors? Why Aren't we going after them for sheer negligence? I'm not an attorney. I'm sure that Mark Levin or somebody like that is much smarter on the law than I am. Can give you an answer to this. I'm just using common sense. Why can we not go after these people for negligence? You failed to act and do your duty and it's costing people their lives. You know, why aren't we arresting people? Well, we, we know that China is involved with Code Pink. I'm going to give you that story later on in the program today. We also have in today's newsletter there is a story that you really need to read. I'm gonna let Jason summarize this. Uh, it's about the Ren Collective. I never even heard of the Ren Collective, but this is an old Soviet era thing that was trying to push communist movies into our society. And it's actually funded by several people, but one of the main guys is a former Enron official. Okay, he didn't go to jail. He should go to jail for this. So what's the Ren Collective?

Jason Butrow (14:31)

It's got a very creepy name, as all leftist organizations usually do. Ren Collective. But the Ren Collective kind of operates, it seems like similar to how we've talked, how we've heard like the World Economic Forum, like penetrates the cabinets, you know, in the words of, you know, Klaus Schwab, they, they exert influence on prosecutors all over the country and they push for, you know, quote unquote, you know, criminal justice reform usually equates to like cashless bail and things of that nature. What's interesting here is they were founded in 2019 as a nonprofit, but they later became a fiscal project of this group called Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs, or SE again, another WEIRD acronym. This was in 2022. Now, C. SE they have the ties to the former Soviet Union and they pushed for the American Soviet Film Initiative and other Soviet cultural projects to be pushed in the United States. It's an interesting relationship, if anything else, and especially if you consider, you know, disclosures like remember Yuri besmanov from the 1980s, former KGB agents about how it was a slow process where Soviet communists would infiltrate American culture, eventually justice.

Glenn Beck (15:57)

So here is, Here is. They are injustice. And here's in a nutshell, what they do. This is a for profit and nonprofit company. Okay? Both of them. And they have, they provide free services to. To at least 40 far left prosecutors. Okay? And what they've done is they. They have come in and they've said, look, we're going to give you we're going to do all this work. We're going to do it for free, for you in your office to be able to get justice to be served. And we're just not going to have a name in it. We don't want you to talk about us or anything. We're going to do all of this stuff for free. And we'll help get you reelected as well. This is a shadow organization that has infiltrated our Prosecutor's offices in 40 different cities. We also know that George Soros is doing the same thing. It is time to go after George Soros. It is time for this country to finally say, we are bringing charges against George Soros and his NGOs. And if we can't charge him with anything criminal because he's so slippery, we should do exactly what other countries in the world have done, and that is ban all of his NGOs from any kind of activity in the United States. He is a revolutionary force who is planted the seeds of destruction in our society. And he has done it in country after country. The evidence is everywhere. George Soros needs to be run out of this country and his organization on a rail. And the same thing with the, the Ren Collective never even heard of these people. Have you heard of it? When you hired, when you voted for your da, did you vote for a shadow organization to do all of this work? I know I didn't. Nothing good happens in the shadows. Nothing good happens in the shadows. Why are we not going after these prosecutors? You can send, you can send the National Guard in. If you're invited by a governor. You can, you can send the National Guard in, but that's not going to happen. It's just not going to happen. And we shouldn't be hoping for that to happen. But I don't understand why we cannot go after prosecutors who are negligent. Because that's exactly what happened in Charlotte. I mean, I, I, I want to remind you. You know, it really chilled me to the bone when I heard him say, I got that white girl. Because I was just in Washington D.C. with my wife, where a guy who was clearly nuts and a threat was on a bicycle surrounding, I mean, riding around my wife and I as we were walking. Jason was there. You were a witness. We were walking down the street, and he's on a bike and he keeps circling us and he keeps pointing to me, looking me right directly in the eye, saying, I'm gonna kill me a white man today. Ah, today's the day. I'm gonna kill me a white man. Well, he didn't. But it sure takes on a whole different feel now that this has happened with this white girl in Charlotte. And who's responsible for that? More in just a minute. First, let me tell you about relief factor. If you're tired of being bullied by pain, tired of waking up every day wondering what's going to hit you next, your back, your knees, your neck, your shoulders, whatever it is, if you tiptoe out of bed like it's a minefield, bracing for that first shot, the rest of the day is shot. You're dodging, you're stiffening up, you're compensating. You know, you are trying to live with pain instead of just live your life. Here's what you can do. You can go to relieffactor.com and find relief. Reliefactor.com It's a daily supplement. Not a quick fix. It's not a mask, but a real strategy for fighting pain from the inside and out. And it reduces your inflammation. It supports the healthy joints. It helps your body free yourself from pain. And millions have tried it. And most of them keep using. 70% of them keep using it month after month because it works. Stick with it. Try it for three weeks and if you don't notice any difference, you probably won't. So stop taking it. But in three weeks, if you notice any difference, keep taking it. It makes a difference. It's relieffactor.com call 800, the number 4 relief 800, the number 4 relief relieffactor.com 10 seconds. Back to the show. Okay, so we're teaching our society that it is safer to look away than to step in. We have prosecutors who are negligent and people are getting killed because of it. And then you also have the media. Okay, media did not cover this story. Didn't cover this story. Why? Everyone keeps saying it's because it didn't fit their narrative. Yes, that's true. But I think there is much more to this. Stories, as the media has shown us and has learned themselves, stories can stir racial tension, right? Stories can be weaponized to divide communities. It can be used to ignite anger and push people into the streets. And that's what makes front page news. That's what happened with George Floyd, with Jordan Neely, NGOs and activist groups like the Ren Collective. I'm not sure if they were involved in any of this, but that's what they do. They all move in with their color revolution tactics and that ends up burning cities, destroying livelihoods and celebrating those people who are responsible for all of that destruction and who bears the brunt of it? Well, in Black Lives Matter, it was the poor black communities themselves. They were abandoned in the name of justice. What kind of justice was that? Now, let me bring this back to Charlotte. The victim is a white refugee. The perpetrator doesn't fit the script. So silence. No protest, no headlines, no marches. Goal's never the truth, it's control. But let me suggest another motive from the press. What's another motive not to report? Well, let me ask you, because I think you'll know this as soon as I ask this question. How, how do you, how do you feel when you hear that the traditional media failed to cover this story not even one time in the first week after she was killed, that they still are now distorting it when they do cover it and they're trying to make it into a race thing or a MAGA thing, how do you feel? Not asking what you think, how do you feel? Most likely you feel angry. So if you're angry, are you more inclined to take to the streets or less inclined? If, if those people who think like we do, but they're mentally unstable, are they more or less likely to take justice into their own hands and get out into the streets? The press knows they can whip up people by what and how they report. They also know they can whip people up on how and what they don't report. They've done everything they can to get you to react in a violent way. They're still doing it today, and we must stay the course. Glenn Beck, so much to say, look at the transgender community. And by the way, this is going to take us across the globe to the other side of the globe where revolution started yesterday. We'll get to that in a second. First, let me tell you about my Patriot supply. You know, you know that feeling when you, you feel like you've forgotten something really important and you don't realize until it's way, way too late. The power is out, the stores are empty. The news is saying stay indoors. That's when it hits you. Oh, crap. I didn't stock up. Well, September, this month is National Preparedness Month.

Foreign. You know, while I was on vacation and I said this when I came back, one of the things that I found in my travels on vacation across the country was that we just, we are people that go from circus to circus. That's really all that's happening right now. And this, this case in, in Charlotte is exactly the same thing. It is, it's a, it's going from one outrage to another outrage. And the press knows exactly what they're doing. And I, I believe their silence was an attempt to whip you into violent action. First of all, they didn't cover it because, you know, it didn't fit the narrative. And then after a while you don't cover it because, well, wait a minute, you know, when I, when I silence people, when I don't cover something, what does that do? I mean, they know, they know you're violent. You've already been labeled and targeted as a violent extremist. They honestly are baffled by your non violent reaction in the last 20 years. Okay. Because they think they know us.

Stu Burguiere (26:48)

It's so strange.

Glenn Beck (26:50)

I had about 30 kids at the house yesterday and I was teaching the Declaration of Independence and, and, and our founding documents. And I was, I got up this morning and I read this and I'm thinking about the press and how they think they know us. And I felt exactly, I think, I felt like Thomas Jefferson must have when he was writing our breakup letter, you know, the Declaration of Independence with King George. Because in that, it's a plea. It's, he's saying, look, we owe it to humanity. We owe it to the world and all mankind to when we're going to do something this big. We owe the world a reason and we own the king a reason for doing it. And basically he's saying, because you don't understand us, we, we have been trying to tell you that we don't believe the same things that you do. You believe you're the king and you have the divine right of the king because God has appointed you to be king over us. And, and we're, we're subjects. We're not even citizens. We're just subjects and we don't believe that. We hold these things to be self evident. Okay? And that's the way I feel right now, that the press thinks they know who we are and they won't listen. We've tried to tell them over and over again. We' tried to tell the, you know, anybody reasonable who doesn't vote like us. We've been trying to say we're not those people. We're not who you say we are. We don't hate the government, we just don't trust the government. And neither do you, quite honestly. And we shouldn't, we should hold them accountable. We know what the problems are. Just like you know what the problems are. You know many people in your camp are trying to overthrow the United States of America. I'm not. I'm trying to return her to her founding principles. You know, I hold these truths to be self evident. You know, we just heard what's his name? I want to say, was it Tim Kaine that just said that? You know they say our rights come from God. Yes. Those are self evident truths that have. All that is the American standard. You don't believe that. You believe things like King George believed. I don't. So how am I the revolutionary today in America? We're not like you. You want to tear things down and destroy. We want to build. You believe the lie of that. You know, there's, there are sheep and ranchers and you're the rancher and we're the sheep. Some people are just born to be in charge because they know better. And because they know better they can get rich by any corrupt way they choose. But you, you have to pay your fair share, play by the rules and then we're going to make the rules to make it so you can't really ever succeed. They believe they rule not just the world, but our world, our personal world. Because they know better. And they're going to force us to live their way. Sorry. I hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal. And there are certain unchangeable rights that were given not by government, but by God to me and you. And I have confidence in the supreme Judge of mankind. I have total confidence God is not neutral in the affairs of man. He's not. We need to do what is right, righteous and legal. I believe it is time we start to pursue legal accountability. We have to demand laws that strip blanket immunity from prosecutors who are refusing to enforce the law. If you are going against federal laws, the federal government should be able to Go after you as a prosecutor. We have to have real consequences for negligence in office. There's. There's consequences for negligence on the street. Why is there no consequence for negligence in office? Why is it we can have all those people killed in Afghanistan on our pullout and nobody was held accountable? Nobody. How is it we can have prosecutor after prosecutor act in ways that let criminals back out in the streets that are killing over and over and over again? Our neighborhoods are not safe, our towns are not safe, our people are dying from drug cartels, and yet nobody's held for negligence. I mean, I'm being nice by saying negligence. We need to begin to look to the law in all of our states. And it is high time our Congress gets off their fat, lazy asses and starts to prosecute people they know. They already know. They know they have all the evidence. Why is it being bogged down in Congress? Because many of them are involved. Well, maybe it's time you appoint a citizens council. Maybe it's time to have citizens in charge of oversight of our government. People who have not been paid off, people who are not involved in the corruption. We have to refuse to forget. We have to refuse to sit down. We have to refuse to remain silent, even though everything you say might be used in a court of law at some point, should things turn ugly. Refuse to remain silent. You know, two months ago, I wrote a document. I've been trying to figure out how to explain internally and to you as well, what the torch is and what our responsibilities are. And I wrote a document for this program and what. What we must do, what I feel our duty is to you and to the country. And I shared it with a couple of people, and they were like, I don't know. That's pretty harsh. And I'm like, how is that harsh? That is just common sense. And it's true. And I've been sitting on it and been praying on it, been thinking about it. And you know what? Today I got up after thinking about all of this stuff last night, yesterday and today and seeing what's happening in the world, and I'm sorry. I don't care if it's harsh. I don't care if I don't think you're going to find it harsh. I think you're going to go, damn right. But I want to declare what this program stands for and what. What our attempt and what we believe, what I believe we should do as a company. And the good news is, it's my company. So I want to share that with you next Hour. Because I. I think is the same thing you should make as. As your duty as well. Because I think this goes to all of us, because we're all in this same boat. We're all in this together. And if we don't, if we, for instance, on this Charlotte story, if we erase Irena's name and just forget about it, her death just becomes another casualty of a political narrative war. And that's what we're in. We are fighting evil. And evil is just a political narrative at this point. That's all it is. Justice is not persecution. Justice is not vengeance. Justice is holding the guilty accountable, whether they have a knife in the shadows or a prosecutor's pen in the courthouse house. Hold people accountable. You know, Irena deserves that. She deserved that. We deserve that. And if we don't demand it, you know, the next victim can be any. Any one of us. And I go back to what I told you just a minute ago. How the words of the killer coming out of his mouth. I guess I got that white. How that reminded me of what was said to me by a crazy man on the Streets of Washington, D.C. today's the Day I'm gonna kill me a white man. As he circled me and pointed at me and looked me in the eye and said it repeatedly. Today's the day I'm gonna kill me a white man. I mean it. Today is the day I'm gonna kill me a white man. I got up today and I thought, I'm gonna kill me a white man. That was a clear threat. And that's exactly what happened to Irina. And if we don't stop this, you may be the next victim. Because these people are empowered. They're in the streets. And if they are, if they are whipped up by the media, if they are revolutionaries, they need to go to jail. If they are just crazy people, they need to be removed from society and put into a treatment program or being held until they are sane. But we're not doing any of those things because our mayors are unaccountable, our prosecutors are unaccountable. No one is being held to anything except for you. That's not a society that will last. So what are we going to do about it? I'll share that with you coming up, because I also have to share with you what happened on the other side of the globe yesterday, because it's a warning. It is coming here. It is coming here in just a second. First, let me tell you about the international fellowship of Christians and Jews. Terror struck in Jerusalem just two days Ago, a gunman opened fire on innocent people waiting at a bus stop. You know what's amazing is the Arab driver got off that bus, opens up the door, gets off the bus, he walks away. Gunmen, come on. Did he know something that the others didn't know? Six people were killed, dozen more injured. Unfortunately, this is, you know, this is the usual headline in Israel. This is daily life for people in Israel. The world just moves on. But the Fellowship, the international fellowship of Christians and Jews, they're still there. They're helping victims, supporting first responders, they're even providing resources to the idf. They stand in the gap when the lives are on the line and the rest of the world looks away. Right now, as the Jewish high holy days approach, they're also delivering food aid to Israel's poor and elderly people. People who live in retirement homes are finally able to celebrate Rosh Hashanah with their community because of the Fellowship's support. They can fight their own wars. But if we can supply flak jackets, if we can supply, you know, armored vehicles for people who are, you know, rushing to and from scenes for rescue, why wouldn't we do that? Recognize. Recognize God's faithfulness by supporting his chosen people. Learn more visit ifcj.org that's ifcj.org this is Glenn. Becky.

Well, if you think about it, your home is more than just where you sleep. It's a symbol of everything that you've built, everything that you've worked for, and everything that you've managed to hold onto. In a world that's constantly trying to take things away, that deed with your name on it is valuable, not just to you, but, but unfortunately to criminals. Because these days, criminals aren't just going after your credit cards. They're targeting your home's title. And it's shockingly easy. They find it online, they forge your signature, they transfer ownership, and suddenly you're not the owner anymore, you're the victim. And the banks and the courts and the authorities, they are not built to deal with this kind of crime. But Home Title Lock is. It's the only service that constantly monitors your title, alerts you to suspicious activity, and helps you shut down fraud before it becomes foreclosure. They're not just watching your home, they're defending the very idea of ownership in a digital age where lines are blurred and theft doesn't always come with a ski mask. If you own a home, if you're protecting that title, you want to make sure that's a non negotiable thing. Because in the 21st century, the battleground isn't just your front yard. Sometimes it's your digital yard. And home title Lock wants you to be able to fight back. AI is a big part of this. And you know, AI is changing the world. Sure, but don't let it change the names on your home's title. Go to hometitlelock.com hometitlelock.com, use the code BLAZE. That's going to give you some savings.

Glenn Beck (41:28)

Our chief researcher Jason Butrell is with us. And you know, I've been saying that we need to start holding people accountable. We it's time to go after George Soros. It is time that the government stops him from doing what he's doing in the United States. And that's working in the shadows, subverting our nation. And there are all kinds of, of these lefty NGOs that are doing things like this. Tell me about the MacArthur Foundation.

Jason Butrow (41:58)

Yeah, this is, this comes from Megan Basham. She pointed this out. The sheer amount of some of these organizations is just, you can't even, it's hard to even fathom, but the MacArthur foundation gave $3.3 million to Meckleburg County. This is where they released him. Yeah, 14 times. They let him go. They gave this money to quote, reduce the jail population with initiatives that included alternatives to let people out of jail basically. And I don't know what to do after that, but I can't. It's almost like these people are using the old Stu will remember this, the old Seahawks defensive strategy of they were all holding, we all knew it, but they're like, what are they going to do? They can't get us all. So now we have all these left wing organizations like, well, I guess they can't get us all. We'll just all contribute to contribute to the downfall of society. But what are they gonna do? There's so many of us. We're an army.

Glenn Beck (42:53)

Yeah.

Stu Burguiere (42:54)

Glenn, can I draw attention to something you highlighted many, many years ago, which was a strategy change by the left. Cuz they were for a long time spending a lot of money going after these big elections and fighting it out at the presidential level. And of course they still attempt that. But you highlighted this with the district attorneys, you highlighted it with the Secretary of States. They changed their strategy to go after basically cheap elections. Elections where people weren't paying a lot of attention, they weren't funneling tons and tons of money. It was A lot easier to get these people through. And they were able to put in these type of crazy people, I would say, a lot of times without the knowledge of a lot of the, you know, maybe call them normal Democrats that were voting for them.

Glenn Beck (43:35)

And I think they had no idea.

Stu Burguiere (43:37)

A lot of times they really were just. Just hiding it. And it worked for a long time. I think, you know, people like DeSantis have taken steps to eliminate a lot of that in Florida. And that might be the action you're talking about when it comes to the legal approach is to go through governors when you can, but it's not an easy problem to unwind.

Glenn Beck (43:56)

I just know that we all know that one of the key people and we should go after all of them, but one of the key people that have destroyed our prosecutors is George Soros. And that money has got to be cut off. All right, let me tell you about Good Ranchers. Last year, over 4 billion pounds of meat was imported into the United States. That's. That's a ton of meat. And more than a ton, 4 billion pounds of meat, a lot of it was labeled product of the US it wasn't raised here. It wasn't processed here.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. I want to share something that I wasn't planning on sharing, at least not yet, until I started going through the news last night and this morning and I saw what this whole thing is turning into in Charlotte and how many lefties are involved in all of this stuff and what's happened to our prosecutors and to our press and everything else. So I want to share something that I wrote a few months ago as something that was trying. I was trying to help. Help clarify in my own mind what my job is, what the job of the. The torch, if you will. Part of that is to bring you the truth every day. Okay? It's what I do try to do every day. But I think there is a new element that not only involves me, but also involves you. And I. I wrote something a couple of months ago and I shared it with a couple of people on my staff, and they were like, I don't know, That's. That's pretty pointed. It's. I mean, it's. It seems a little extreme. And I'm like, that's not extreme. I don't think it's extreme. I don't think you'll find it extreme. Maybe you will. Maybe I'm just. Maybe it's just me, right? Oh, my gosh, I'm so extreme. I think it's just common sense and it is a responsibility for all of us. So I want to share that with you. You in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Z Factor. Remember the last time you had a good night solid eight hours of restful sleep. Those were the days. You know, it seems like fairy tales.

So I wrote a document because I am trying to explain to you, my staff, to myself, so I can then translate this on what the torch really is. Because the torch is something that I'm starting in January. It is a pretty massive move in my career and, and I. It's gangly, it has so many different arms to it, but they're all pulling in the same direction. And part of that is to expose the truth. And that's in current events. And that's what this show is for, to expose what's really going on, to help you understand not only what happened yesterday, but what it means, what's coming over the horizon tomorrow and what to do about it today. And to hold people, to hold a record of what has happened. Because that's one of the other arms of the torch is history. And when we think of history, we think of history. You know, the old dusty powder wig kind of history. But history is happening right now. What happened in Charlotte is now part of American history. And you have to know history to be able to see what happened to a society, what happened to this civilization, and how do we get back if we choose to get back. So I wrote something a couple of months ago and I want to share it with you. It was our principles of truth and duty. And this was something that I wrote for my staff. But I think it applies to everybody, you know, that, that cares to heed the warning. There comes a time in the life of a nation, a people, or even a single soul when silence becomes betrayal. Not because silence itself is evil, but because it allows evil to metastasize. When the foundations of liberty are under assault through lies, miseducation, bureaucratic rot, or quiet erosion of conscience, it becomes not just advisable, but incumbent upon us to act. This is not meant to be a call to arms. This is a call to accounting, a call to record, to expose, to resist the machinery of falsehood with clarity, with courage and a relentless commitment to the truth. We have a duty to document. Again, this was meant for internal use, but I think this is all of our duty. We have a duty to document. We have an urgent obligation to gather, organize and preserve every fact, every document, every statement and record. Record this, put it on the record. Anything that reveals how truth has been suppressed and freedom distorted. Because tyranny rarely kicks down the front door, it seeps through the cracks. Rewritten textbooks, judicial overreach regulatory capture and a media more loyal to narrative than fact. Our mission is to leave no stone unturned. We must collect evidence from those who have been silenced, the whistleblowers, the scholars, the citizens. We must document the abuses in education, religion, politics and the press. We must preserve the testimonies of those who still remember what America was meant to be, so that the record can't be altered by those who wish to remake it in their image. This is a stewardship not of history alone, but of memory. 2. The necessity of public exposure. To give people information is no longer enough. Collecting information is no longer enough. Truth locked in a drawer is no different from truth that never existed. Our task is to make the darkness visible, to shine a light on it so intensely that no rational mind can deny what it sees. Therefore, we must publish. We must speak. We must create platforms immune to the corrosive pull of centralized control. If the towers of culture no longer permit dissent, we must build new towers. If the institutions of learning no longer teach, then we must build new institutions. We must teach it in our homes, we must teach it in our churches, in our communities, through the digital ether. It must be taught. Truth must be weaponized, but not to wound, simply to wake. 3. The importance of naming names. It is not enough anymore to condemn evil in the abstract. The machinery of corruption operates through people, through planners, financiers, bureaucrats, ideologues. We must with discernment and precision identify those who have abused their power, manipulated the system, or enabled tyranny, not for vengeance, but for accountability. A future generation must be able to trace how the fire spread, so they may build firebreaks that last. 4. The spiritual cost of inaction. Though this isn't a religious document, it should be known there is a spiritual dimension to cowardice. When good men and women fail to speak, they don't merely preserve their safety. They transfer their burden to those who will come after them. Every truth left unsaid becomes a lie. The next generation must live under. We all will be asked, what did you know? When did you know it? And what did you do with what you knew? We cannot give the answer. I waited for somebody else. 5. The power of the individual. This statement of purpose is not for a mob. It's not for the crowd. It is for the individual, the mother, the teacher, the soldier, the student who still believes the truth matters and who's willing to carry the weight of remembering and resisting. No contribution is too small, none is too small. No act of courage is wasted. You may at some point be the Last light. Last light in your circle. That is all the more reason to burn brighter. To remain silent now is to become complicit. To act is not optional. It is essential. Therefore, it is our duty to document, to expose, to speak, to teach, and to stand. Because in the end, history is not written by those who whisper safety. History is written by those who stood when standing cost them dearly. That is the path to restoring the promise. That is our duty, our responsibility, and our honor. I don't know how you can find that radical. I don't know how you can find that to be anything other than true. And I share that with you today because I knew this when I wrote this. But it feels more important today as I'm seeing what is happening in our country just with this Charlotte thing. There are people that are hell bent in tearing us apart. There are people that are negligent. You know those people on the train that did nothing? Though some did stand up eventually and tried to help, but it was too late. And I don't know if you could have saved her anyway. I don't. I don't judge those people. I don't. I don't know what was going through their head. I didn't like the action. I didn't like the fact that nobody went to her. You know, the woman sitting across just turned her face, turned her head while this woman is dying on the floor. I mean, I think you have a. You're going to pay a personal spiritual cost for that. Although I could be wrong. I don't know what was going through that woman's head. But if we don't act, if we don't. If. If we only protect ourselves and we don't stand. You know, this is what we learned after 9, 11. Remember, all the planes went down because nobody did anything, because they thought it was only them. But once that last plane over Pennsylvania, they were able to get messages to and from their people, their families on the ground. And once they found out, no, we are just one of many planes being taken down, they knew they had to act. They had to stand together. Let's roll. That's heroic. We have a responsibility. You have a responsibility to record facts so at some point people can be held responsible. For instance, I am waiting. I am waiting for this government to hold George Soros responsible for what he has done to the freedom of the West. There are several countries that will not allow his NGOs in. He's not welcome in several countries. They know exactly what he's done. They know what he's capable of. They know what he really is trying to do, no matter what he says. And we just, we just accept it. He's doing it to our cities, to our children. He's helping these prosecutors turn our country into a hell hole, a hellscape, a murder scene. And we don't do anything about it. I'm not calling for vengeance and I'm not calling for violence. I am calling for justice. I'm calling for common sense. We must, as a nation, stand against what he is doing. And he's not alone. The Code Pink thing, they were out trying to disrupt President Trump and, and J.D. vance and Marco Rubio. Pete Hegseth was there. Other officials, they were having dinner and they, you know, they're marching out in front and they're trying to, you know, do everything they can to disrupt everything. They're chanting, they feast while Gaza starves. Free DC Free Palestine. Stop terrorizing communities all over the world. Shut up. You know, if you were honest, maybe, maybe I could tolerate it. But you are not. You are not. You haven't been honest in anything that you've done. And beyond that, you are funded by the Chinese Communist Party through Neville Singham. Why aren't we going after him? Why aren't we as a nation shutting things down? And I'm not saying opinions. You can have an opinion. You can march in the street, you can say things that I vehemently disagree with. But when you are funding organizations who intent their intent is to cause revolution in our country, don't we have a responsibility? We as citizens must document who these people are, how they're doing it, and then we must call for accountability and our government must act. Otherwise, it ends the way it's ending now on the other side of the globe. I want to bring you a story that you probably didn't even pay attention to, if you even heard it yesterday. But it is a very important story because it relates right directly back to you and us. More in a minute. First, let me tell you about Simply safe. Pretty much everybody talks about, you know, they talk tough until something goes bump in the night. And that's when your brain starts inventing scenarios. You know, was that the dog? Was that the wind? Was that somebody, you know, jiggling the back door handle at 2am they fixing to break into the house? You don't know. You don't know. And not knowing is the worst part. That's why there's simplisafe. It's top of the line home security that doesn't just alert you when Something is wrong. It actually helps prevent things from going wrong in the first place. We're talking about cameras, motion sensors, glass break detectors, 24,7 monitoring from real people who actually respond when you need them. And the best part is it's easy to install. You can set the whole thing yourself up in about 30 minutes. No need for drills or wires or, you know, no strangers traipsing through your house. It's simply safe. They give you back the one thing that matters the most, and that is peace of mind. So go ahead, let the wind rattle the windows. You got this covered. Simply safe. Simplisafe protection that is actually simple, common sense. SimpliSafe.com Beck when you go there now, you'll claim 50% off a new system with your monitoring program. That's SimpliSafe.com Beck. There is no safe, like simply say 10 seconds, station ID. Okay. There's a couple of things that you should be aware of that are happening around the globe. First of all, Jason, can you give me an update on what happened in, in Poland yesterday? I'm, I'm reading before I go to bed. There's drones crossing the border, Russia crossing the border with their drones in Poland. What is this?

Jason Butrow (65:53)

Yeah, it looks like the drones came from Belarus, which is, which is a new development. And the Belarusians used, or the Russians in Belarus used Polish airspace to get to Ukraine. This is one of the, can't be done, one of the nightmare scenarios of something like this happening and then them ended up, you know, ending up attacking, you know, a NATO asset in the process. Well, NATO has responded with invoking or activating Article 4, not Article 5, but Article 4. So this is serious development.

Glenn Beck (66:25)

What is Article 4?

Jason Butrow (66:27)

So Article 4 basically says we're going to get together and as a collective and start looking at responses or not responses, but looking at how we can all get together and provide a defense, an immediate defense if we need to. So they have escalated it a little bit, but it's not imminent. It's not like, you know, an attack is going to happen, but they are concerned.

Glenn Beck (66:48)

I saw one of the, you know, one of the defense secretaries of one of the warmongers over in the, you know, that have been saying we got to go out and wipe out Russia. That one of those guys over in Europe last night saying, we got to go out and we got to, we got to get these airplanes up and we got to, you know, go in and get Russia. And I'm like, that's the worst thing that could happen. Was this a mistake? Or did they know what they were doing? Russia. Yes or no? It was. It would.

Jason Butrow (67:16)

No.

Glenn Beck (67:16)

We'll go into it more.

Stu Burguiere (67:17)

Okay.

Tonight on Blaze TV. It's my 9pm Wednesday night special. We're going to cover the, you know, years of progressive manipulation in the Democratic control of our major cities. And, and we have major crime happening in all of our major cities now. Minnesota, North Carolina is a great one and it's almost daily now that another major disaster seems to happen. Um, Washington D.C. has been cleaned up by President Trump and the stats are actually really shocking. We're gonna give them to you tonight. Crime is down all across the board, but can that be applied to other cities? Should that be applied to other American cities? Could it be copied in Chicago tonight? I'm gonna show you what the constit and is there anything the President can do? You might be surprised by this. I'm also gonna show you the real crime stats in some of these cities. The left, you know, they keep claiming everything is fine. They claim crime is going down, but is that even true? You'll find out tonight. Trump's War on Democratic run Crime Havens is the name of the show. Can He Save Our City Starts tonight on the Wednesday Night Special, 9:00pm Blaze TV or on my YouTube channel, YouTube.com Glenn Beck. This, you know, it's, it's amazing how this, this narrative from Charlotte is, is really starting to change and I think take a dark, dark turn.

Stu Burguiere (70:28)

Yeah, well, it's hard to get darker than I think the beginning of it, but it does seem to be getting maybe even worse. I, I will. Maybe we could talk about this later on if we have time. But, but I am interested in one thing you brought up in the past half hour, which is the sort of bystanders that were involved in this situation and what they should have done, how they should have reacted to this. A lot of the online stuff I'm seeing is everyone should have jumped in immediately. And it's just such a tough story. And you, of course, want people to do that. But I think also putting yourself in that position is a little more difficult than many are applying when it comes to the log, the logic of you in that moment. So I don't know if we have time to talk about that.

Glenn Beck (71:13)

So you just, you just set the Marine in the room off. But we're gonna get, we're gonna get into that because I think I, I happen to agree with you, Stu. I think that it's a very tough situation. You know, I don't want to.

Stu Burguiere (71:25)

By the way, I should clarify. All Marines should jump in immediately.

Glenn Beck (71:29)

I'm not 100 sure I agree with that. Right. I agree with that. All Marines should.

Stu Burguiere (71:34)

Now, by the way, our, our society is sending a different message to people in the military as we, as we saw in New York. Right. Like when military members do jump in and make these situations not happen, that's a totally different story. But we should get into that if we have time.

Glenn Beck (71:48)

Yeah, we'll get into it at top of next hour. So the top of hour three. You don't want to miss it. I want to talk to you here for a minute of something remarkable that happened in Nepal. Their government is facing mass protest over corruption. And this is, they say this is a republic. I'm not up on my government of Nepal, but they say there's free and fair elections. You know, they say that about every place, you know, and it's a democratic republic. But I. Beyond what they say, I don't know if any of that is true. Could be, you know, could be a comm. I know that they have a big communist wing of the. Of their parliament. Um, so, you know, they're at least dealing with some of that. But what happened yesterday, there's all these. All this corruption. See if any of this sounds familiar. Is there any corruption in any country you can think of that's not being addressed? And the government decided that the solution to this was to ban social media, to just shut it off, you know, to say, hey, that laptop story is not true. Shut down any conversations on that. Okay? They went a step further. They just shut all the media off, and they silenced the voice of the people. Well, gee, what do you think might happen, Deputy Dog? The country exploded. 19 people dead. The prime minister is forced to resign. Mobs chasing the ministers through the streets. Airports shut down. I mean, they dragged some of these people out in the streets and then beat them. Gee, who predicted that could happen here in the United States? Here's the thing. When a government decides that its own survival depends on silencing the people, it has lost its legitimacy. Okay? That's not the spark of collapse. That's the smoke after. The fire has already been raging for a while now. Stop before you think, well, that's Nepal. Far away land, fragile politics. You don't know the politics of Nepal. Don't kid yourself. I don't. You don't either. But look around. We are quickly. We're flirting with the idea of cutting off social media during riots in 2023. That was. That was France. We're flirting with it. We were doing it under Joe Biden. We did it during COVID We shut people down. The UK passed an online safety law so broad it could be weaponized against dissent the next time London is set on fire. They're already arresting people for what they say online. The EU has armed itself with regulations that force the platforms to strip out whatever Brussels says is harmful. These are Western democracies. These are also Western democracies that are now toying with authoritarian kind of concepts and instincts. Um, all what happened in Nepal rhymes with stuff that is happening in the West. And there's a revolutionary mood here in the United States as well. And it is driven by young people who feel robbed by opportunity, people who are tired of corruption, sick of the elites telling them to shut up while the powerful play of a different set of rules, like they're playing a different game entirely. And it's also revolutionary. Re. Actual revolutionaries who have wanted to overthrow this government for a long time inside our own homes now Inside our universities, inside, you know, the House of Representatives and Congress and. And the administration, they're revolutionaries that want to topple us. And then there's people like you that just want it to be fixed, who feel a little bit like the people, who feel robbed of opportunity, tired of corruption, sick of the elites telling them to shut up. Just like the youth. You're barely making it. The youth is barely making it. We're all in this boat, but we all keep allowing ourselves to be separated. And what is our outlet? Our outlet is social media. It's what allows us to say and be heard, be heard. It's imperfect, it's messy, it's loud. It is wrong. A lot of the times. It causes more problems sometimes than it's worth it feels. But that's a megaphone that is in the hands now of everybody. And you can't take it away from people. You cannot. People who are outraged by what's being done to their country or our country, they go online to expose what the press refuses to expose. Look at Charlotte. Look at Charlotte. We're shouted down. We're called names, we're called conspiracy theorists, but at least it can be said. You cut that off and you don't calm the storm, you ignite it. History is screaming warnings to the West. The Soviet Union silenced dissent and it collapsed under the weight of lies. The Chinese Communist Party survived Tiananmen Square by wielding an iron fist, but that was at the cost of freedom for generations now. And the founders knew all of this. This is why the First Amendment's not about, you know, you know, taxes or armies or rent control. It's about speech and assembly and the press. Our founders lived under authoritarian rule. They knew it. And they knew that silencing people was never going to secure peace. It guarantees rebellion. So I was thinking about this yesterday and thinking about what is so possible here in America and what we can do as a people, what our government needs to do. First thing, our. I think three things our government needs to do. Three things. One, address the aggrieva, the. The grievances. Honestly, if corruption is the charge, investigate it transparently. Publish the timelines, publish the documents. Don't hide, don't spin, just expose it all and let the chips fall where they may. That's not happening. It's happening in some cases, not all cases. And it should. Two, our government must make it very clear they protect the public square even when the voices are angry. Especially maybe is since when they're angry. Because you must, as a government, prove that you can Be trusted at a time with dissent. If you can be trusted in a time of great dissent, then you have legitimacy. You shut that down, you're illegitimate. You're just. You're not a government. It's weak and pathetic, and the people won't stand for it. Third thing is de. Escalate, don't militarize. This is one of the things I'm very concerned about with President Trump saying he's going to go into multiple cities. I would like to see the constitutional underpinnings of that. And if it is against the Constitution, which I believe the way it is being presented would be unconstitutional, if it is unconstitutional, then it must not be done. Soldiers on the streets do not. Do not give confidence to people. In the long run, it doesn't. If you're a country where you need soldiers on the streets, you're a country in trouble. When you put soldiers on the streets, like. Like they are in England right now, we're a long way away from this, thank God. But they're putting soldiers on the streets to silence people when there's curfews, you know, when there is a shutdown. Any attempt to control the narrative that screams that the government is afraid of its own people. That's what's happening in. In Europe and in England. They need to silence the people who believe in England, who are English, because they are terrified that they can be toppled if that truth gets out. If that picks up, they'll be toppled. They'll lose every election, and they can't have that. They are afraid of their own people, and fear is contagious. So those are the things our government should do, but the things that we should do do not be provoked into violence. This is something I've been. I've been saying this forever, but today it's kind of a theme on the show, because I think that's another reason why the press is not covering Charlotte. They know that you're getting more and more angry by this. Every time they publish something like, oh, it's the racist white people. Look, they're just against black people killing people in trains. Yeah, I'm against everybody killing everybody on trains. And that they know by airing those things, it does a couple of things. It makes their clicks go up and it increases the temperature in the country, and there are too many people that want the temperature to be raised. Don't be provoked into violence. Don't despair. Document the truth. Support the institutions that defend liberty. Organize around specific, measurable reforms. Stay engaged legally, peacefully. So when somebody tries to blur the lines, you know, illegal with undesirable. There's a firewall of citizens standing in the way. We have to be very, very clear. The west is being tested right now. We're being tested. We have been given a republic. We're being tested. Can we keep it? The, the, the freedom is the only stabilizer that works in the long run. We can't fall into the trap of Europe or the one that Nepal just fell into, thinking that control is safer than liberty. It's not. If you defend the principles that built this republic, if you stand calmly but firmly for transparency, freedom of speech, rule of law, then even in the worst storms, we will be the last free people standing. And that means there's hope, not just for us, but for the rest of the world. Real, true hope. Tomorrow. You know what the date is tomorrow? September 11th. If you're my age, that brings back a lot of memories, a lot of memories in this country. Those over, those under 39, they don't remember. Didn't bring back that same kind of feeling. And it's been buried. You know, for a lot of families, it's still personal that never went away. Wives without husbands, kids who grew up without dads, first responders who ran towards the fire and never came home. This is why Tunnel to Towers was founded, to honor that sacrifice. And they do it by taking care of the people left behind. Mortgage free homes for fallen first responder families, Smart homes for severely injured veterans. Support for gold star families who paid the ultimate price. This is not just about helping. It's about keeping a promise that our country made that we forget all the time. You know, it's a reminder that the freedom we enjoy today came at the cost of somebody. Somebody else has already paid that, the ultimate price. So tomorrow, as September 11th approaches, once again ask yourself, what kind of country do you want to be? One that remembers or one that acts? I want to be one that acts. Tunnel to Towers is acting. Let's join them. $11 a month. We can never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes. And $11 a month will help put homes, you know, put these people in homes, Save people's homes and their families. Tunnel to towers. T2t.org that's t the number two t dot org. There you have it, the truth stripped down like a fence post in a prairie storm. Glenn Beck returns after this.

Stu Burguiere (84:54)

If the government can't be trusted to fix a pothole, why would you drink them? Trust them with your drinking water. And you know, tap water in America is kind of A disaster, right? It's a decades old pipe system pushing out a chemical cocktail of lead and rust and whatever else managed to hitch a ride through the plumbing. Just ask the folks in Flint, Michigan how all that worked out. Lead exposure isn't just gross, it's dangerous. And it's been linked to brain damage and cancer and developmental issues and kids and a host of other problems we're just probably beginning to understand. And yet millions of Americans still drink straight from the tap. Because I don't know, what else are you supposed to do? Well, the answer is Cove Pure. It's a sleek countertop water purifier that doesn't require a plumber, doesn't need to be drilled into your kitchen, and doesn't play games. Its Clearwave technology strips out 99.9% of contaminants. Lead, PFAS, pharmaceuticals, the stuff that doesn't belong in your water. You just plug it in, you choose your temperature, and for once in your life you actually get water.

Foreign welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Now having her buried in the U.S. here's, here's the, here's Russ Ferguson. Cut one, please. After Irina's death, the embassy in Ukraine called and said, we'll help you bring her home.

As Mr. Barnacle said, something here is broken and we're here to fix it. When is she being buried? That should be, I mean, can you imagine if that's a, a public burial and a public funeral?

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. There's a lot going on. Today is the the end, the 30 day mark of the, if you will, occupation of Washington, D.C. the president could send troops in or send in the National Guard for 30 days in Washington D.C. under an emergency. He declared an emergency. After that, Congress needs to approve what is happening in Washington D.C. what is happening with Congress and can he send troops into other cities? This is something we're going to be talking quite a bit about tonight on our 9pm Special. We're going to show you the ins and outs of all of this and what's really going on in these cities. The actual crime stats and the shocking numbers of the crime stats and what has happened since Donald Trump actually started enforcing the law in Washington D.C. that's tonight at 9 only on Blaze TV, my Wednesday night special. We're going to get to some of that here. And also I want to spend some time because we've been debating off, off the air about the people that were on the train with Irina Zarutska. You know, when you watch that video, at first you're like, these people did nothing. They did nothing. And there's part of me that says, you know, you have a responsibility to act. But there's another part of me that says, you know, don't judge because what would you have done or what would you have wanted your wife to do in that situation if she was sitting next to somebody that just had their neck cut by a killer who is still on the train with them. We're going to talk about that here in just a second. First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. Some people make noise. Others make a difference. In a country where everything feels really super loud, where every issue is a shouting match, Patriot Mobile is just quietly building something very powerful. They're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. No celebrity campaigns, no corporate virtue signaling. Just a solid mobile service and a mission. They support pro life causes, religious liberty, first responder veterans. Veterans. And they do it without apology, but they do it out in the light. They let everybody know because while the other guys are busy trying to please the mob, Patriot Mobile is standing firm on values that actually mean something. And the best part is they use the same cell towers as the major carriers. So you're not sacrificing coverage to take a stand. You're choosing to align yourself with a company that believes in faith and family and freedom. No noise, just resistance results. Patriot Mobile a quiet power for a loud world.

Stu Burguiere (93:13)

Glenn. How are you?

Glenn Beck (93:14)

You know, I'm, I'm, I'm torn on how I feel about the people on the train because my first instinct is they did nothing. They did nothing. Then my, well, sit down and you know, you know you're going to be judged. So be careful on judging others. What would I have done? What would I want my wife to do in that situation?

Stu Burguiere (93:46)

Yeah, those are two different questions, by the way. I think.

Glenn Beck (93:49)

Yeah, they are.

Stu Burguiere (93:49)

They go far apart from each other. I mean, what would I want myself to do? I mean, it's tough to put yourself in that situation. It's very easy to watch a video on the Internet and talk about your heroism. Like everybody can do that very easily on Twitter and everyone is, you know, when you're in a vehicle that doesn't have an exit with a guy who just murdered someone in front of you, has a dripping blood off of a knife that's standing 10ft away from you, 15ft away from you. There is probably a different standard there that we should all kind of consider and maybe give a little grace to. What I saw at least, was a woman sitting across the aisle. I think there is a difference there. But when you talk about that question, I think those two questions are definitive. I know what I would want myself to do. I'd hope I'd act in a way that didn't completely embarrass myself afterward. But I also think when I'm thinking of my wife, my advice to my wife would not be to jump into the middle of that situation at all costs. Now, she might do it anyway. She's actually probably a heck of a lot stronger than I am, but she might do it anyway.

Glenn Beck (95:03)

But that would not be pathetic. But how true.

Stu Burguiere (95:05)

Yes, that would not be my advice to her. Now, maybe once. The guy certainly is out of the area and you don't think the moment you step into that situation, he's going to turn around and decide to kill you, too, then, of course, obviously, anything you could do to step in. Not that I think there was much anyone on the train could do. I mean, I don't think that there was an outcome change, no matter what anyone on that train did, unfortunately. But would I want her to step in? Well, of course, if she really. If she felt she was safe, yes. But, man, I mean, think about. You said your wife. Think about your daughter. Your daughter's on that train just watching someone else getting murdered like that. Would you advise your daughter to jump into a situation like that? That girl sitting across the aisle with somebody's daughter? I don't know, man.

Glenn Beck (95:54)

I would. I. You know, as a dad, would I advise? No, as a human being, would I hope that my daughter or my wife or that I would get up and at least comfort that woman while she's dying on the floor of a train? Yeah, I would hope that my daughter, my son, that I would. And. And, you know, I have more confidence in my son or daughter or my wife doing something courageous more than I would. But, you know, I think I have a more realistic picture of myself than anybody else. And I'm not sure that. I'm not sure what I would do in that situation. I know what I would hope I would do, but I also know what I fear I would do. But I would hope that I would have gotten up and at least tried to help her, you know, help her up off the floor, at least be there with her as she's seeing her life, you know, spill out in. In under a minute and that's the other thing we have to keep in mind.

Stu Burguiere (97:00)

Yeah.

Glenn Beck (97:01)

This all happens so rapidly. A minute is. Will seem like a very long period of time in that situation, but it's a very short period of time in real life. Yeah.

Stu Burguiere (97:13)

You watch the video, Glenn? I, I, you know, I, I don't, I don't need the video to, to change my, my position on this, but it does seem like there was a. Someone who did get there eventually to help. Right. Like, I saw someone seemingly trying to put pressure on her neck. Yeah.

Glenn Beck (97:31)

Yeah. And tried to give her cpr and, you know.

Stu Burguiere (97:33)

You know, no hope at that point. But how long of a time period would you say that was? Do you know, off the top of your head?

Glenn Beck (97:40)

I don't know. Know. I don't know. I know that we watched the video that I saw. I haven't seen past 30 seconds after she.

Stu Burguiere (97:51)

Yeah.

Glenn Beck (97:52)

Is down. And, you know, for 30 seconds, nothing is happening. And, you know, that's, that is a, that is not a very long period of time.

Stu Burguiere (98:02)

Right. In reality especially, I saw the pace he was walking. He certainly can't be. You know, he may have left the actual train car by 30 seconds to a minute, but he wasn't that far away. Like, he was still in visual. He could still turn around and look and see what's going on at that point. So certainly still a threat, I guess, is my point. He's not. He has not, like, left the area. This is not that type of situation, you know. Look, as you point out, I think, you know, if I could be super duper sexist for a moment here, sort of my dividing line might just be men and women, you know, I don't know if that's a. You're not supposed to say that, I suppose, these days. But, like, you know, there is a difference there. And, you know, if I'm a man, I would want my son to jump in on that, I suppose. You know, I don't think he could do anything about it. But you'd expect at least a grown man to be able to go in there and do something about it. A woman. You know, I don't know.

Glenn Beck (99:05)

Maybe.

Stu Burguiere (99:06)

Maybe I'm, you know, here's the thing.

Glenn Beck (99:09)

I don't. Here's the thing that I, I. That causes me to say, no, you should have jumped in. And that is, you know, you've already killed one person on the train, so you've proven that you're a killer. And anybody who would have screamed and got up and was with her in there, she's Dying. She's dying. Get him. Get him. Then the whole train is responsible for stopping that guy. You know, um, and if you don't stop him after he's killed one person, if you're not all as members of that train, if you're not stopping him, uh, you know, the person at the side of that girl would be the least likely to be killed. It'd be the ones that are standing up and trying to stop him from getting back to your daughter or your wife or you.

Jason Butrow (100:01)

There was a. Speaking of men and women's and their roles in this, there was a video that was circling social media yesterday. Sweden. In Sweden. It was a group of officials up on a stage and one of like the main. I think it was like a health official woman collapses on stage, completely passes out. All the men kind of look away or. I don't know if they were looking away or pretending like they didn't know what was going on. There was another woman standing directly, directly beside the woman that passed out, immediately springs into action, jumps on top, grabs her pant leg, grabs her shoulder, spins her over and starts providing care. What did she have that the other guys did not? Or women? She was a sheepdog. There is a. And this is my issue, and I completely agree with Stu. I completely agree with you. There's some people that do not respond this way. My issue is the proportion of sheepdogs versus just people that don't really know how to react. That is diminishing. In Western society and American society. We see it all the time in these critical actions. I mean, circumstances. There are men and women, and there's. It's actually a meme that fantasize about hordes of people coming to attack their home and family. And they sit there and say, I got it, you guys go. I'm staying behind while I smoke my cigarette and wait for the hordes to come because I will sacrifice myself. There are men and women that fantasize of, block my highway. Go ahead, block my highway. I'm going to do something about it. They fantasize about someone holding up a liquor store. Not a liquor store, a convenience store or something, because they will step in and do something. My issue now is that proportion of sheepdogs in society is disappearing just on statistical fact. There should be one within that train car. And there were none. They did not respond.

Stu Burguiere (101:48)

And we see what happens when they do with Daniel Penny, right? Like our society vilifies them and tries to crush their existence. Now, there weren't that many people on the train, right? Like at least on that car. All I could see in the pictures. And again, it's limited, but I only saw maybe three or four people there. There may have been more. I agree with you, though. Like, you see what happens when we actually do have a really recent example of someone doing exactly what Jason wants and what I, you know, a guy to do, especially a Marine, to step up and stop this from happening. And the man was dragged by our legal system to a position where he nearly had to spend the rest of his life in prison. I mean, it's insanity. Thankfully, we can't.

Glenn Beck (102:32)

The difference between that one and this one, though, is that the guy was threatening.

Stu Burguiere (102:39)

Yeah.

Glenn Beck (102:39)

This one, he killed somebody, Right? Well, I think.

Stu Burguiere (102:46)

But it's the opposite way. I mean, the debate with Penny was, should he have recognized that this person might have just been crazy and not done anything? Maybe he hadn't actually acted yet. He was just saying things, and he didn't wind up stabbing someone. This is a situation where these people have already seen what this man will do to you, even when you don't do anything to try to stop him. So if this woman, who's again, looks to be an average American woman across the aisle, steps in and tries to do something, this guy could easily turn around and just make another pile of dead bodies next to the one that already exists. And whether that is an optimal solution for our society, I don't know that.

Glenn Beck (103:33)

That.

Stu Burguiere (103:33)

That's helpful in that situation.

Glenn Beck (103:36)

Sarah, can you go to yesterday's sound sheet and see if you can find. From yesterday, we didn't get a chance to play it. A guy in England. Who is it? Was it Tommy Robinson? Is he the guy who's in and out of jail? Yeah. Okay, so Tommy Robinson. There was a. There was a protest in his favor, and, you know, the police were called, and they were trying to arrest people, and there was one guy who was talking to, I don't know, a reporter or just a podcaster or somebody. And. And he was asked, you know, how can you stand here? And you don't. You don't. You're not even wearing a mask. So they're gonna come to your house and get you. You have it. Let's play that in 60 seconds. You have to listen to this because it's. Again, Sheepdog. Sheepdog. Back in just a second. First, let me tell you about the burner launcher. Sometimes you don't need to. To win a fight. You just need to end it, you know, and end it fast. A burner launcher. In today's world, I Don't understand why more people don't get a burner launcher. I don't know why you is. Even if you're against guns, this is the perfect defense for your kids if they're going to college. Every, Every, everyone over 18 should have a burner launcher. Honestly, it's a self defense device. It looks just like a firearm, but it fires pepper balls and kinetic rounds and tear gas rounds and it stops them right in their track. I mean this, this guy, I mean, you know, you might have gotten everybody else because it's an enclosed small area, but you would have hit this guy with tear gas, he would have been down, he wouldn't have been doing anything. And it's legal in all 50 states. No permit needed, no background check, nothing. You can carry it with confidence, you can store it with peace of mind and you know, if trouble ever comes, you know you've got the situation under control. And this is a prime example of this. If somebody would have had a burner launcher. You know, I don't know what the laws of carry are in North Carolina, Charlotte, North Carolina. Right. I get my Carolina is always screwed up. But notice neither of you answer which Carolina it was. But you know, I don't know what the carry is but everybody should have one of these. Everyone should have one of these. It's the most effective self protection tool I've ever seen. It's Burna B Y R N a dot com Glenn Berna dot com Glenn Learn more about it. You can try before you buy at a Sportsman's warehouse location. You can find the location nearest you@burna.com Glenn Go there now. Burna.com Glenn 10 seconds back to the show. So are we seeing fewer of these or more of these type of people? Listen to this guy interviewed in the streets in England. Well, you know, trouble is all around him. Listen to him and hide my opinions.

Tommy Robinson (106:47)

I'm a man. Why would I hide who I am? Why would I say I'm ashamed of my nation or my people? If I put a mask on my face, I'm saying I'm wrong. I'm saying I'm ideologically faltered. That's what that means. I'm an Englishman. I don't wear a mask. I show my face. I say my name. I say come and get me because I'm correct. That's all that matters. Wars aren't won by soldiers. Wars are won by thoughts. Wars are won by ideology, by heart, not by the moral high ground, not by soldiers. Soldiers fight the battles. Good for them. Obviously I Support them. But that's not the thing that wins a war. Winning a war comes from moral certainty. And that's what England's got, moral certainty. And that's what all these people have, moral certainty. They know they're civilized. They know that they gave that to the world. They know that they are free. And everybody in the entire world has a debt of gratitude to every Englishman for their freedom. So, no, I don't hide my face, I don't hide my name, and I sure as hell aren't ashamed to talk on your camera.

Glenn Beck (107:55)

Isn't that great? I mean, that's just awesome. That is awesome. Are we seeing more of these people or fewer of those people?

Jason Butrow (108:02)

Fewer, by far. And that's what concerns me. When the amount of the proportion of sheepdogs diminishes and they go away. Never ends well for society.

Glenn Beck (108:13)

I will tell you, though, at the same time, we saw none of these people five years ago. We saw no one like that five years ago. Now you're seeing them all over the world. And again, you know, the proportion is. You're probably right. I mean, we're seeing uprisings all over the world, and we're seeing, you know, there are thousands of people behind him, you know, and here's one guy, but.

Jason Butrow (108:37)

But you're also seeing a UK that is, well, farther, further advanced than we are. So where they're over.

Stu Burguiere (108:44)

Oh, yeah.

Jason Butrow (108:45)

And where they are, that's the direction they're pushing us in.

Glenn Beck (108:49)

I mean, I'm supposed to bring my daughter when my. Or my granddaughter, when my grandkids turn 12. I've told them, and I'll take you. I'll take you to see something that you. You want to see, wherever you want to see it, whatever you want to see. I'll take you. Grandpa and I. Grandpa, and you will go and see and I'll take you someplace. And my granddaughter wants to go to Paris, and I'm supposed to take her. Her birthday is this month, and I'm supposed to take her sometime, you know, in on a school break. And I keep wondering, I mean, is it going to make it again? Can we go to Paris? Can we go to France and see it and be safe? How long does France have before it just falls into a sinkhole? You know, the same with England. I'm more concerned about England. England is because the people there are pushing back. They're not pushing back in France. They're pushing back because France is, You know, the government is saying, we're going to cut some of your holidays. You're going to have to work more. And that's why they're in the streets in England. They're in the streets because they know their country is being taken from them. They know that the government is violating all of the most basic rights that an Englishman has. And that's why they're standing up and pushing back. And I'm very concerned because the, the police are not backing down. You know, they just, the, the governments just keep pouring more fuel on these fires.

Glenn Beck (112:02)

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Tonight on my Wednesday night TV special tonight at 9. Years of progressive manipulation and Democratic control has wreaked havoc with crime in American cities all over the country. In Minnesota, North Carolina, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. President Trump has cleaned up Washington, D.C. the stats are shocking. We're going to give those to you tonight. Crime is down across the board. But could this be done in other American cities? Constitutionally, can it be done? Um, we're gonna find out tonight. I'll show you what the Constitution says. Is there anything the president can do? You might be surprised. And Today is the 30th day of, you know, quote, occupation of, of D.C. he could declare a state of an emergency for 30 days. Now, Congress has to extend that if he wants the National Guard to stay there because Congress is in charge of, of and so is the president in charge of Washington, D.C. and so we'll see what is coming next and how they're going to handle this constitutionally. We'll cover all of that tonight. Trump's war on Democrat run crime havens. Can he save our cities Tonight, Wednesday Night Special, 9pm on Blaze TV and also on my YouTube channel at YouTube.com Glenn Becky, I'm, you know, I'm, I'm really concerned because if we don't get control of our cities, we don't have anything. Although I do not, I wouldn't, I wouldn't welcome this from a president that I didn't vote for. And just because he's my president, I, you know, I want the Constitution followed by my president because I don't want him to set a precedent. So the other guy, other side president comes in and he's like, no, I can take in. I can just go into Dallas and I can just control Dallas. No, I want to make sure we're playing constitutional rules. What surprised you most, Jason, about putting this show together tonight when you're doing all the research?

Jason Butrow (114:08)

I think what surprised me the most is how I felt afterwards about sending the National Guard into some of these cities. I was looking at it as well. We don't really have to. There's other things we can do. I actually put together a huge chalkboard that we just scrapped for tonight because we didn't end up not having, having the time.

Glenn Beck (114:25)

Yeah.

Jason Butrow (114:26)

But on how to incorporate like on a more massive scale what the Untouchables did back in the day, going after.

Glenn Beck (114:32)

Capone and as, I mean, the Untouchables did it the correct way. They did it constitutionally. And as long as we're doing it constitutionally, I don't have a problem with it.

Jason Butrow (114:43)

Well, I mean, well, that this was probably the second thing that surprised me is there is a constitutional way he can do this. Now, it's obviously different than Washington, D.C. if he was going to do something like this in Chicago, or let's say, Charlotte for that matter, he would have to. There's three different sections on how he could invoke the Insurrection act, and that's the only way he can do it to get pasta. Comitatus does not allow it unless you invoke the Insurrection Act.

Glenn Beck (115:09)

And I think you could make that case in places like Chicago that they are in insurrection. Insurrection means you are. You are violating the civil rights of American citizens because you're not enforcing the laws or you are perpetrating, you know, crime on, you know, civil rights crimes on citizens. And so then the federal government has the responsibility to step in and take care of that. And I. I have a feeling they're going to make the case that you can do that, because they're trying to. They're trying to stop ice. They're trying to subvert the federal government from doing its constitutionally mandated job in protecting the civil rights, the life and property of citizens because these cities are not arresting these. These criminals. I have a feeling that's the case he's going to make. And that would work, would it not?

Jason Butrow (116:11)

That absolutely would work. So what you're referencing is section 253 of the insurrection.

Glenn Beck (116:16)

Of course I was. Of course. You knew that, Stu, right? Oh, yeah. You were thinking 253 immediately.

Stu Burguiere (116:21)

You know, it's funny, at first I thought. Is it section 251? It's not 251. It's ridiculous.

Glenn Beck (116:27)

It's 253. Funny. I remember when I was dumb like that.

Jason Butrow (116:30)

Well, actually, 251 is. 251 is the one for real. I mean, this is actual. The section 281 is the one section where the president needs. Has to respond. I mean, is in response to the state's request for national guard.

Glenn Beck (116:45)

Right.

Jason Butrow (116:45)

That's 251. Now he needs to be asked for that. Well, the other two sections, 253 and 253. 252 and 253. He doesn't need consent for those last two.

Glenn Beck (116:56)

Correct.

Jason Butrow (116:57)

And they're completely different.

Glenn Beck (116:58)

Civil rights and insurrection. Correct.

Jason Butrow (117:01)

Well, 252 is if rebellion makes federal law enforcement impractical. 253 to protect constitutional rights when states fail or refused to act.

Glenn Beck (117:10)

And I think both of those come into play. I think he could make a case. I mean, it's going to be challenged by the courts, obviously, but I think he could make a very strong case that both of those are. He can invoke both of those.

Stu Burguiere (117:23)

I'm pretty hesitant in opening this door, Glenn, and I know. I know you are as well. You're worried about it.

Glenn Beck (117:28)

Yeah.

Stu Burguiere (117:29)

And I'm also pretty hesitant to speculate as to how this might be done if it is attempted. We just don't know. And it's weird to get down these roads because you just don't know. I want to see what he presents and, and we'll see at that time whether, you know, it's constitutional or not.

Glenn Beck (117:45)

But. Yeah, hang on, hang on. Just a second, just a second. I want to clarify something. Yeah, I am just as concerned as you are.

Stu Burguiere (117:50)

Yes, I am.

Glenn Beck (117:50)

But I don't want constitutional loopholes. I want what the Constitution says. And those two, 252 and 253 do say that if these things are happening, he doesn't need to ask for permission.

Stu Burguiere (118:06)

Right.

Glenn Beck (118:06)

How do you interpret those? I think it's easily interpreted this way. You apparently do not.

Stu Burguiere (118:12)

Well, yeah, I'm worried about sort of this and I'm not accusing President Trump of this, cuz as we've said, he has not even proposed any of these things yet. These are just, this is just a bunch of people talking about stuff. But there is a new, you know, chatgpt constitutionalism, I've noticed, mostly on the left, some, some of it creeping into the right, where you kind of like, well, is this constitutional? And your AI says no. And you say, well, give me the best argument if you were to say that it was. And then that's the one we keep hearing. Well, if we put it this way, and we call this that and we do this with this, and if student loans are part of something that we pass for soldiers after 911 and all of these different justifications, we get a lot of that's going on right now. So I'm very, very skeptical of it. But I do ask Glenn, because obviously you and I are. We're always Talking about Section 251 of the Insurrection Act, a big thing that.

Glenn Beck (119:10)

I'm a little weaker on, 252 and 253, which is what we should be talking about right now. But go ahead with your 251.

Stu Burguiere (119:16)

But let me make a serious point on 251, which is we do have states that are red states that agree with Trump that we could get approval from red state governors to go into blue state cities with these types of solutions that, that aren't part of a constitutional question because of how clear it is when you're asking, from a governor to the federal government, hey, please come in here and help us with this. You avoid all those constitutional questions. You help a red state, not Illinois or not, you know, some state that can't stand Donald Trump, it doesn't seemingly want the help. You help a red state with a problem area and you help the citizens of that red state. I mean, to me, that's a much More direct line. If you're gonna do something like this, go to the governor and get the approval to go in there and do these things. I would lean that way if this was a direction that you were gonna go.

Glenn Beck (120:16)

Personally, I think that's extraordinarily valuable and valid, and it is less controversial. Yes. But I feel just as strong, from what I understand of 252 and 253, I do feel it is. It is clear that because they are thwarting the federal government's law enforcement capability. Okay? That's what they're doing. They are saying, spy on I, stop ice, rat on ice, publish pictures of their faces. This is. That is a federal law enforcement agency. And if they are making it impossible for them to conduct their law enforcement, that's 2:52, is it not? What? Yes.

Jason Butrow (121:02)

Yes.

Glenn Beck (121:03)

And then the other one is the violation of. Of civil rights of American citizens. That one is a little harder. But you could say, I mean, was not in Charlotte, was not that she wasn't even a citizen, but wasn't her civil rights. Weren't they violated? Of course they were.

Stu Burguiere (121:25)

But I mean, if that's.

Glenn Beck (121:25)

But who's responsible for that?

Stu Burguiere (121:27)

If that's the standard. I know you can apply this to every city at all times. There are always murders in these cities. There are always situations. It's a really dangerous road to open up.

Glenn Beck (121:38)

I know.

Stu Burguiere (121:38)

And you know what. What happens.

Glenn Beck (121:39)

That's why I said when.

Stu Burguiere (121:41)

You know, that's why. Yeah, go ahead. I'm sorry.

Glenn Beck (121:43)

I was going to say, that's why I think 252 is very clear, because they are saying they are not going to allow the federal government to enforce in those cities. They are declaring that. That's 252. And I think you can go in on 252. You could make a case for 253. I'm not as comfortable with it, but I think you could make a case for it.

Stu Burguiere (122:08)

Yeah. You know, but 251 seems even clearer. And it's like, I don't know, until we run out of, you know, Memphis and, you know, you know, these cities that are near the top of the list that are in red states. I mean, these dumb points brought up by, like, Gavin Newsom. Oh, yeah, well, this state has a.

Glenn Beck (122:25)

Higher murder rate than my.

Stu Burguiere (122:26)

This city has a higher murder rate than my state, and it's in a red state. Well, okay, look, those cities, of course, are all run by Democrats. We could go through the political arguments there, but those are something. These are things that we actually can address.

Glenn Beck (122:40)

We don't have these problems.

Stu Burguiere (122:42)

And I think the more that we can get involved in not. Look, my goal here is to avoid these new openings in the Constitution. And of course, I wanna stop the crime as much as I think the president does. And that's an important part of this, by the way, that I believe. I know the left doesn't agree with this. I believe the president's motivations here are really good. I think he really wants to stop things like this from happening. I think his motivations here are to stop people from suffering and being victims of this stuff. But it is important. And considering there are easier pathways that, that don't open these things up, I would prefer to avoid that conflict.

Glenn Beck (123:24)

Not always.

Stu Burguiere (123:25)

I know the president likes to jump in these things a little bit more than I do.

Glenn Beck (123:28)

Maybe I would prefer that as well. I mean, I have a family who disagrees with almost everything I believe in and stand for, it seems like. And they are just in my face all the time. On. He's doing exactly what you said Barack Obama was going to do. He's marching armies into cities. No, he's not. But I understand how you could see it that way. If you're only being informed by, you know, npr, I can understand how you see it that way. And I would rather avoid that by being invited in by the governor in red states. You could say, no, he's not. He's been invited in by the governor. It's all constitutional. I much rather would have that. You are right. That's the clear, easy way to do it. It 252, however, speaks to me because I'm tired of these, these cities being sanctuary cities and saying, we're not going to abide by federal law. Excuse me, you don't have the right to do that. You don't have the right to thwart the federal government. And if you, if you want to make that right, then great, then let's go to court and find that. Let's, let's argue that in court. And if you want that ability, great, then let's change the Constitution. But you cannot thwart the federal government on federal law. You just can't do it. And so I'm motivated to go into those cities and those states who are just putting a thumb in the eye of the Constitution, not of Donald Trump of the Constitution and saying, you know what? We want it our way, we're gonna do it our way. We don't. We're not allowed that. We're not allowed that. But an Easier, cleaner way is exactly the way you stay stated.

Glenn Beck, we'll be right back.

Stu Burguiere (127:24)

We have some new developments in the 2024 for election. Somehow, Kamala Harris has a new book coming out and the first leaks are out. Alex Thompson has the first leaks from this book. And one of the things that was interesting about the 2024 election was Kamala Harris never taking a step to distance herself at all from Joe Biden. Of course, remember the most famous moment? I remember it happened while we were sitting here on the air and we couldn't believe that when asked what's one thing you would say would differentiate yourself from Biden, she couldn't come up with anything. And we said on the air at the time. This, this election. How can you win an election with that position? Everyone knows. Just absolutely amazing. And so now, though, now that I guess the election's over, she's thinking about her future. She's trying to sell books. She now is saying, we should have done something. She said over and over again. People inside the White House said, it's Joe and Jill's decision. We all said that like a mantra, as if we'd all been hypnotized. But this, this wasn't a choice that should have been left to an individual's ego, she says, in retrospect, I think it was reckless. She also goes after the White House communications team and Corinne Jean Pierre, saying they were never helpful. She says when Republicans said I was a border czar, no one helped me push back, she said. Instead, I shouldered the blame for a porous border, an issue that had proved intractable for Democratic, Democratic and Republican administrations alike. No one around the president advocated give her something she can win with. And first of all, I don't know if there's anything that Kamala Harris could have won with. But secondly, it wasn't an intractable problem, as we saw about 11 minutes into the Trump administration. We'll see you tomorrow.
