Summary

The Glenn Beck Program | January 20, 2026

Episode: Is Pam Bondi’s Day of Reckoning Here?

Key Guests: Peter Schweizer, James Brown
Main Theme:
Glenn Beck delivers a passionate critique of accountability, transparency, and the execution of justice in American institutions with a focus on Department of Justice head Pam Bondi. The show confronts ongoing corruption, American decline, weaponized immigration, and global strategic threats, featuring in-depth interviews with author Peter Schweizer and Montana auditor James Brown.

Episode Overview

Glenn Beck opens with a forceful call for genuine accountability in America’s justice system, questioning the inaction of the DOJ and lamenting the continued lack of results, especially concerning high-profile cases like Jeffrey Epstein. Beck scrutinizes Pam Bondi’s performance as Attorney General, claiming her mishandling has eroded public trust in institutions.

He frames the moment as existential for the American Republic: prolonged tolerance of government dysfunction is killing faith in the system. The episode also explores global threats – from China's demographic strategies and Islamic influence to collapsing Western resolve – turning to Peter Schweizer’s new book, The Invisible Coup, for analysis. Montana official James Brown highlights local victories against large-scale fraud.

Major Segments and Timestamps

1. Pam Bondi and Department of Justice Accountability

[03:20–25:01]

Key Discussion Points

Glenn's year-long promise to reserve judgment on DOJ/Pam Bondi ends; he demands results for a host of unresolved scandals and failures.
Examples of institutional failure: Epstein files, lack of prosecution for elite wrongdoers, slow action on government corruption and election misconduct.
Concedes possible systemic issues (confirmation holdups, bureaucracy) but stresses that public credibility is exhausted.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [10:16]:
“A republic doesn’t die only from chaos. It dies from tolerance of the intolerable. There comes a point when process stops being prudence and becomes protection...that’s what I’m concerned about.”
Glenn Beck [13:12]:
“When small offenders are jailed swiftly…but sprawling, massive, well-documented corruption in government produces years of nothing but hearings and no results…people see this pattern and go, ‘the whole system is rigged’–and that’s the end of a republic.”

Memorable Moments

Detailed FOIA request recap; continued silence from DOJ on exposing communications about Epstein, Bondi, Bongino, etc.
Beck’s “fruits rotting on the ground” metaphor (34:17) for low-hanging, ignored criminal cases.

2. Both Sides: Patience vs. Action in Justice

[25:01–38:37]

Key Discussion Points

Beck presents arguments for slow, cautious prosecution, citing Watergate, mafia cases, and denazification as positive examples of patience.
Warns that haste can allow the guilty to escape justice; demands clearer communication regardless.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [28:33]:
“Justice, the Department of Justice, is not a sword meant to satisfy you or me. It’s a scalpel. And scalpels are slow and precise and deeply unsatisfying to watch.”
Glenn Beck [34:21]:
“If there’s a problem, tell the American people what the problem is and do it with credibility. Not ‘it’s on my desk.’...You blew all your credibility.”

Memorable Moments

Beck’s final take: patience is warranted only if accompanied by effective, transparent communication – which Pam Bondi lacks.

3. Listener Calls: Frustration and Deep State Concerns

[40:19–45:39]

Key Discussion Points

Callers express frustration over Bondi’s perceived incompetence; Beck distinguishes between communication failures and intelligence.
Discussion on Bongino’s departure from the FBI, FOIA requests to uncover possible behind-the-scenes discord.

Notable Quotes

Caller Peter Schweizer [40:59]:
“[Pam Bondi] almost seems dumb to me…”
Glenn Beck [41:09]:
“I don’t want to call her dumb…she is a poor communicator, that is for sure.”

4. Peter Schweizer Interview: The Invisible Coup & Weaponized Immigration

[45:39–66:21, 67:59–77:21]

Key Discussion Points

Schweizer outlines three-pronged threat: mass migration from Mexico as demographic warfare, China’s industrial-scale use of U.S. birthright citizenship, and Islamist infiltration using religious visas.
China’s long-term plan: create a million-strong voting bloc of U.S.-born citizens raised in China.
Radical imams entering the U.S. via R1 visas, advising immigrants not to assimilate; Mexico’s government encourages similar non-assimilation attitudes.

Notable Quotes

Peter Schweizer [49:50]:
“The people, the foreign adversaries…use military terminology…[they] talk about reconquering…the United States…China believes…they are engaged in a civilizational warfare against the Judeo-Christian West.”
Peter Schweizer [52:22]:
“The Chinese government says over the past 13 years, every year, roughly 100,000 Chinese children have been born in the United States that are then taken back to China…”
Peter Schweizer [68:39]:
“The problem is…the Department of Homeland Security has looked at this R1 visa program and found that the fraud rate among those Muslim applicants is excessively high compared to other faiths.”
Glenn Beck [73:43] (reading lyrics):
“But I wanna remind the gringos I didn’t cross the border, the border crossed me…who’s the invader? I am a foreigner in my own land…”

Memorable Moments

Discussion of anti-assimilation Mexican and Islamist songs endorsed at official rallies.
Schweizer’s “marriage of convenience” between radical left, Islamist, and reconquista movements.

5. Global Strategy: Diego Garcia & Western Decline

[83:31–110:57]

Key Discussion Points

Glenn lays out the abandonment of Diego Garcia, one of America’s most strategic military bases, as a symptom of Europe’s “managed decline.”
Europe and Britain’s moral retreat undermines shared Western defense; Beck extolls Trump’s assertive “sovereign nation” doctrine as embodied in upcoming Davos speech.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [85:39]:
“[The CCP] said the barrier between soldiers and civilians would fundamentally be erased, because the battle would be everywhere…They talk about attacking us through environmental warfare, financial warfare, trade warfare, cultural warfare, legal warfare—everything that’s happening today in the streets.”
Glenn Beck [101:28] (imagined Trump speech):
“What is over is the belief that the world can be run by people who no one elected, using rules no one voted on, enforced by institutions no one can ever remove…The era of unaccountable global management is over.”

Memorable Moments

Beck’s passionate hypothetical Trump speech for the Davos WEF, channeling Reagan’s “Tear down this wall” moment.

6. State Success: James Brown in Montana vs. Fraud

[110:57–120:10]

Key Discussion Points

James Brown exposes a $50 million ACA fraud scheme that trafficked Native Americans across state lines for fake treatments; Montana rooted out the scheme, unlike the inaction seen in Minnesota.
Emphasis on vigilant, local accountability as crucial to fighting systemic fraud and decay.

Notable Quotes

James Brown [112:21]:
“Montana is not Minnesota…I can tell you, unlike Minnesota, you’re not going to get excuses in Montana. You’re not going to get political cover here.”

Tone and Language

Candid, urgency-laden, and occasionally sarcastic
Glenn regularly references history (“Roman Senate…history is merciless”) and uses metaphor (“fruit rotting on the ground,” “managed transition”)
Guests (especially Schweizer) are direct, data-driven, while remaining accessible to a broad audience.

Episode Takeaways

Institutional patience vs. public trust: Beck feels the DOJ’s slow pace is no longer defensible without clear communication.
Pam Bondi’s reputation: Regardless of her competence, Bondi’s communication failures have irreparably damaged DOJ trust.
Weaponized immigration: Schweizer details how foreign adversaries, especially China and Islamists, use U.S. laws against national interests. He suggests both right/left are complicit in ignoring subversive tactics.
Western civilization under threat: From government fraud to global security lapses (Diego Garcia), the “managed decline” mindset is leading to strategic vulnerabilities.
State-level integrity as hope: Montana’s crackdown on fraud stands in stark contrast to unchecked corruption elsewhere, serving as a model for civic action and accountability.

For New Listeners

This episode is a tour-de-force blend of passionate analysis, relentless critique of political and media institutions, and on-the-ground reporting. It ties together global scale threats and local success, ultimately demanding real accountability and urging listeners to stay vigilant, engaged, and informed.

And thanks for standing with us. Now, let's get to work. Pass it on. Crank the game. Glam. Beck is on Glam. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn beck program. It's January 20th, which means the President's been in office now for a year and some remarkable things have happened. We're going to talk about that, but I also said I'm going to give the DOJ a year and I won't say anything about what they're doing for a year. I want to see some results. Where are the results? Today we're going to hold the DOJ accountable. But I with a caveat. I want you to understand that there is the possibility that there is obstruction that is not the kind of obstruction that many people think is going on. It's not my point of view, but I want to make a case for that. But first, let me make the case that Pam Bondi needs to be replaced. We begin there in 60 seconds first. Most of the time we don't think about our heat at all. It's just there. You turn a dial, you forget about it and that's fine right up until the moment it isn't fine. What catches people off guard is how fast that shift can happen. One interruption, one failure, one storm or outage that lasts longer than expected and suddenly something basic becomes a problem you have to solve. Right now, the Vesta heater from my Patriot Supply is a portable indoor safe heater and stove that works without electricity. No plugs, no panels, no dependence on a grid that may not be cooperating. And it uses simple, reliable canned heat to warm a room or boil water, cook a meal without the drama, without the complexity, without anybody you know, you can use it inside and it's safe. Okay? It's the kind of stuff that you have, you're glad you have when normal stops being normal. Best part is right now you can get the Vesta and a bunch more preparedness gear as free gifts. When you order the winter survival kit from my Patriot Supply, just go to my patriotsupply.com Glenn see everything included offers not going to last long. Go to my patriotsupply.com Glenn my patriotsupply.com/glenn. All right. I a lot to say about Pam Bondi. And let me, you know what, let me just start with this. Just to be fair, we gave the DOJ some notice. We said Glenn has addressed criticism. The DOJ has fallen short of maga's expectations for justice over the past year. Glenn wants to give the DOJ the benefit of the doubt and present his audience with reasons why there might be a backlog. One of those reasons being the amount of district attorneys. It's actually, I think federal investigators that Democratic senators are holding up in confirmation. You have the number estimate of, of federal prosecutors that are being held up by Democrats. Deadline is 8am Blah, blah, blah. We have not received anything and I, I say that because it's not unusual for us not to get a response from the doj. For instance, we have yet to receive Anything from our FOIA on the Jeffrey Epstein case. I don't know if I've ever met mentioned this, but when I saw what was happening with the Epstein case I noticed there seemed to be a real tiff between Dan Bongino and Pam Bondi. And so I know there had to be things that were being exchanged back and forth and that would help us get to what really happened. So we requested copies including this is actually from the FOIA that we, we put out July 11th copies of all records including but not limited to emails, memorandums, notes, text messages, correspondence, meeting minutes, call logs or any other communications sent or received by Dan Bongino that mentioned, discuss or relate to any of the following topics. The Epstein files Jeffrey Epstein's client list Any documents, investigations or releases related to Jeffrey Epstein's activities, associate or estate Pam Bondi the Attorney General DOJ Cash Patel. This includes communication where these topics are discussed in combination. Bongino's references to the Epstein files in context of Bondi or Patel or individually. The search should include any electronic or paper records in Bongino's custody as well as those involving him as the center, a sender, recipient or CCBCC participant. The time period of this Request is from November 5, 2024 until present day, July 11, 2025. Requesting these records in the public interest as they pertain to a high profile promise promises made by Bongino, Bondi and Patel regarding transparency on Epstein related matters which have been wildly discussed, widely discussed in the media and public forums. Disclosure would contribute to public understanding of government operations, accountability and potential conflicts of interest involving senior officials. I am not seeking these records for commercial purposes. I request a waiver of all fees associated Blah blah blah blah blah. Crickets. We have not heard heard a thing from the doj. It is my right as a journalist to request with a FOIA request. The government is supposed to respond quickly to a FOIA request. Usually they do. When they don't respond quickly to a FOIA request, it sometimes can be dragged out for a very long time because the government doesn't want to to do it and so they'll come up with all kinds of excuses. I would think that a DOJ that wants to let the American people know what's going on would have honored that FOIA request. But again, it's not unusual. So let me, let me first make a case. I want to make two sides of this case and the one I believe is that Pam Bondi needs to be replaced right now. But I want to make a case that wait A minute. There might be some things we don't understand. So you can make your own decision and no straw man arguments. I'll give you both sides of this. First, let me make a case for accountability and action and why patience at some point can become complicity. A Republic doesn't die only from chaos. It dies from tolerance of the intolerable. There comes a point when process stops being prudence and becomes protection. And that's what I'm concerned about, that we are in this place to where protection is happening. And history is merciless on this question of where this line is. The Roman Senate, you know, they didn't fall just because they lacked laws. They weren't enforcing it. The laws were enforced selectively. Politicians, the Senate, everybody delayed. And so there was no justice. And the people noticed that. And that's when people stopped believing in their, in the Republic. So faith collapses before an empire or a country does same thing over and over throughout history. I don't need to bore you with all of the details, but this is the moment that we're living in right now. When small offenders are jailed swiftly, when the IRS will hire 85,000 agents to go over your records, but nobody will talk about Hunter Biden. No one will talk about the Clintons, no one will talk about anybody in power. Those just get swept away when process crimes are aggressively pursued, when whistleblowers are crushed, which they have been. But sprawling, massive, well documented corruption in government produces years of nothing but hearings and no results on those hearings. Okay, when that happens, the public starts to say, you know what? I'm going to draw, I'm going to draw a conclusion here. And it's not irrational to do it, it's not hysterical to do it. But people see this pattern go. The whole system is rigged, and that's the end of a republic. And that's why Pam Bondi needs to answer or be replaced. We must have the information that the American people can trust. So let me just tell you, these are the things that just drive me out of my mind that Pam Bondi needs to answer for and be replaced for. First, the Epstein case. That's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. I've never seen anybody handle anything. No, I, I take that back. Joe Biden, he handled his entire administration the way Pam Bondi has handled the Epstein case. It is honestly like, she's like, I got all the information on my desk right here. What am I doing here? I mean, it was almost that bad. I've got all the information and you're going to see it tomorrow. It's set right here on my desk. And then nothing. Nothing, Nothing. Why did you say that, Pam? You have to tell the American people because you were bluffing, because you hadn't done your homework, because you were looking for press that night. Why would you say that and then have nothing and then the next day say, well, I don't have it because the FBI in New York, they won't release it. They're holding the documents and then not send FBI to the FBI office and arrest those people. That would not turn over the records that you said they were holding. Why didn't that happen? I personally think it was just another lie or gaffe from you. It was a. You were incompetent and not ready to deal with it and you opened your mouth. That's what I think happened. That's the bet. And that's the kindest I can get. So the Jeffrey Epstein thing, complete bungling of it. The lack of criminal prosecution for James Comey, for Clapper, for the lying under oath on so many things. But let's just say Russiagate, the collusion with the press and the use of the release of secret information to the press. We know it. We have the memos. We've seen the memos. Why hasn't anybody been charged? Why haven't these two been charged? Ricky, can you tell me, have they even lost their national security clearances?

Glenn Beck (13:16)

Yes, just check. Yeah. Okay. Next, the lack of criminal prosecution against Adam Schiff or the New York Attorney General, Letitia James, or anyone else that tried to weaponize the justice system against political opponents. Most prominently, that would be Trump. Where is any case on that? And you know what? If you don't have a case, say you don't have a case, but don't just leave it hanging out there. Lack of arrests for various democratic scandals, including the Russia collusion hoax. Where's that? The Mar a Lago raid? I mean, we keep finding out. It's worse and worse and worse and nothing happens. How about the 2020 election fraud? That scandal, at least the lack of investigations into an answers on whether there was fraud. Nothing. You got nothing. A year in, you got nothing. Okay, how about the lack of action regarding Doge's fraud findings? Lot of fraud there. Who went to jail? Who's who are you even considering putting in jail? Do you know how much money has been stolen from the American people? And it appears our DOJ doesn't give a flying crap. You can't. You can't have a country run like this. You can't. And Pam, that's your responsibility. That's your responsibility. Where are all the arrests and investigations into all the state and federal government that participated in the Somali fraud? I know you're going and you're getting the Somalis near. You got, you got some Russians and I congratulate you on that. But I want to see the people that were involved at the airport. I want to see the bankers that knew. I want to see the people that turned a blind eye. I want to see people who actually planned it. Where is that? I know you're only a year into it. How, how long do we, how long do we have to wait here? How about the failure to drain the swamp on the deep? State actors working against the American people and their elected officials. Do we have anything on that? Anything? Anything? The failure to prosecute anyone involved in the Biden era weaponization of government, dare I even say Covid? The unjust Face act arrests. Everything the Twitter files exposed about what the government was doing. Where is a single arrest? Where is and when will someone pay for any of this? How about Biden's auto pen scandal? Where the hell's that? How about this? How about. How about the lies that happened under oath by the Capitol police proven to be lies by videotape about January 6th? January 6th. What about the pipe bomber? Definitely not that guy. We got this guy over here. Uh huh. Uh huh huh. What about the FBI lying about the number of agents that were actually there at January 6th? We're going to do anything about that? Here's one of my favorites. This is a recent hit. The lack of going after the Clintons for non Epstein related reasons like Gazprom in Uranium One. We got that one. Dead to rights. Benghazi, Dead to rights. Hillary's email server. Dead to rights. Claims of fraud in Haiti with the Clinton initiative. Dead to rights. Anything the Clinton foundation has touched, I'm pretty sure you can find something. And what, what happens? You don't do anything. So? So Congress has a little show trial to enrage the left and the right based on a fishing expedition that you're not going to get anything from except you're going to get people riled up on teams. That's not helpful to the Republic. How about the lack of apparent investigations into George Soros and all of his foundations? I know you're just starting that. Can we get an update at all? Why does this man have so much influence in our politics, everyone knows. And there's zero pushback from anybody in power. I mean, you could go back to the Ukraine color revolution of 2014, you know, which of course led them to try to impeach Trump. But, you know, the lack of investigations in Covid is astounding. No one went to, you know how many people died because you all colluded. You colluded. You knew this was untested. You knew it had dangers. You didn't tell us about it. Instead you said, you have to take it. Nobody goes to jail for that. No one. No one pays a price. How many people in this, in this world, let alone this country, died because of that? And by the way, what about buddying up with China and being partially responsible for Covid? Is anybody going to pay a price for that? Or do we just not care because it's science? There's more to say coming up in just 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Lifelock. According to the Identity Theft Resource center, social media takeovers are now the number one form of identity misuse. Cyber thieves can pull personal details, damage your reputation, use your name, run scams that spread fast. You use strong passwords. You have two factor authentication. Maybe that's the front line. Behind the scenes, the threats are constant and moving way too fast for anybody to be able to track on their own. This is where Lifelock comes in. Lifelock monitors hundreds of millions of data points every second for signs of identity threats. They alert you right away if something looks wrong. And if the worst does happen, you're not left to figure it out alone. You have your own restoration specialist that works to fix the identity theft. Guaranteed. They have like a million dollar guarantee. Your protection is backed by Lifelocks million dollar protection package, including coverage for stolen funds, personal expenses, even lost wages. If identity theft would derail your life, protect yourself. The way to do it is Lifelock. Save up to 40% off your first year with a promo code BECK. Call 800 LIFELOCK. 800 LIFELOCK. Or head to lifelock.com use the promo code BECK. 40% off. Terms and conditions do apply. 10 seconds. Station ID. Okay, here's what you need to know. Perception is reality. Perception is reality. When you are dealing with things like a fragile republic, Perception is reality. Justice doesn't just have to be done, it has to be seen. You have to inform people what's going on, otherwise all your legitimacy evaporates. No serious citizen is looking for show trials and anybody who is. I want nothing to do with you. We're asking for Any trials of people that you think you can prove are guilty. People expect visible movement on things. Indictments, subpoenas, accountability at the top, not the bottom. We want the top, the bottom and the middle. Everyone should pay. And if, if Pam Bondi can't do it, if you can't produce that, you've had a year, you're the bottleneck. You're the bottleneck. Institutions do not get infinite patience. I said I'm not going to say anything about Pambandi for a year. And I was pretty good, pretty good on that. Not perfect, but I was pretty good on that. Okay. Trust is not a, it's not a, it's not evergreen. It, it's, it's a non. Renewable resource. I just don't renew my trust if you're, if you are not showing and we're. I'm not looking for vengeance. I'm replacing. Pam Bondi is not vengeance either. It's governance. Sometimes the only way to save an institution is to admit it has failed as an institution. And it is time for new leadership at the doj. Pam Bondi should go. Enough is enough. And that's not a slogan. Everybody is saying it. Enough is enough. That's not a slogan. That's a warning flare. Because when the people, when citizens believe that the law only exists for the powerless, they stop caring about the law and defending the law at all. And that's not outrage, that's not populism, that's not Trump, not protest. It's just the truth. And history will show you that's how republics fail. So replace Bambondi. Period. Going to give you the other side. I'm going to try to work up the passion for it, but there is a compelling other side of this. I'll do it next. It's just, it's much easier if I just tell you what I think and then we just leave it at that and we all agree. But I'll try to give you the other side. The most dangerous part of an IRS problem is thinking that you have more time than you do. By the time it feels urgent, your options are already narrowing. And for business owners, it's even riskier. Payroll tax issues can lead to frozen accounts, shut down orders, personal liability. And that's why you need Rush Tax resolution. They have an A plus rating with a Better Business Bureau. They are a company that you really need to see if the IRS is involved in your life. And the difference with Rush is they don't guess. They don't waste your time. They start out by finding out exactly where you stand with the irs, what your real options are and whether they can actually help you before anything else happens. When you mention my name, Rush will provide a free IRS transcript investigation. This is a service that most firms typically charge about $500 for. Even without confirming they can help you, they'll take your money. Rush won't do that. They offer this upfront and for free. And they will only take your case if they know they can help you. Period. Don't wait or hope the problem disappears. Get Rush. Tax attorney. Protect yourself today. 877-555-554. Rush. 877-554-rush.

Glenn Beck (25:01)

It's been a year. I said I would give the Department of Justice in Pambani a year to show us some results, any results. And I think we have some results to show, mainly from Harmeet Dillon, I believe. You know, the. The DOJ just. This just came out from just the news. DOJ says substantial progress has been made on the Epstein files. But no new releases. Okay. All right. Yeah, I don't think I'm falling for that one again. It's right here on my desk, Pam. Right here. And I'm going to release it tomorrow, and you'll see. Oh, well, it's up in the FBI, and the FBI won't turn it over to me. Wait, aren't you in charge of the FBI? You can't get the FBI to do something. The DOJ can't get the FBI to turn over papers, and then you don't arrest anybody. I don't think I'm buying that one again, but maybe that's just me. Also, how about this one? FBI and DOJ in action in Pennsylvania on death threats. Threatening voters with death is a felony. And in 2020, four, people who had signs in their yards were getting death threats. They're trying to find who these people were that were, I mean, really, really nasty death threats sent through the mail. For some reason, the US Postal Service doesn't wanna pursue this. Neither does the doj. Why is no one willing to look into this? It's a felony. Okay? Now, I wanna be as fair as I possibly can, you know, when I tell you I have a theory on something, I'll tell you what my theory is. When I say, you know, I've been watching things and I think this is how it's coming to play. But on this one, I'M not sure because I have friends who will tell me there are problems, and I have friends that will tell me there's not a problem. The problem is the system. So I honestly do not know what is going on. The monologue I just gave you a minute ago saying Pam Bondi should be fired. That's how I feel. Okay, but let me give you the other side, because justice, the Department of justice, is not a sword meant to satisfy you or me. It's not. It's a scalpel. And scalpels are slow and precise and deeply unsatisfying to watch. Okay. Large scale corruption cases, especially anything involving an NGO or foreign funding channels or intelligence agencies or senior officials, are not stalled because prosecutors are lazy or compromised by default. It may be that they're slow because they have to survive hostile courts, appellate scrutiny, and future administrations. Consider Watergate. The break in occurred June 1972. You know, it wasn't until 1974 that the actual facts started to come out. And he was like, okay, okay. Two years of silence, leaks, public fury before any accountability. Okay, Prosecutors, had they rushed the indictments early, he likely would have survived. Okay, let's try the Mafia. FBI knew who John Gotti was for a decade. They lost case after case because they moved too fast. He only fell when prosecutors slowed down, built vertically, and attacked the structure and not the spectacle. Okay, I could give you a list of these post World War II denazification. They wanted to get all the Nazis. We abandoned the mass trials because they collapsed under their own weight. And we could get really narrow cases with better evidence and patience, but it was morally unsatisfying. Okay, so that happens all the time. Modern corruption, generally speaking, except in Minnesota, is not suitcases full of cash. It's shell NGOs, it's pass through foundations, it's foreign cutouts, it's lawfare disguised as activism. It's money routed through compliance, shielded institutions, influence purchased without any fingerprints. You. You can't indict that with a press conference. You indict it by flipping accountants, by seizing servers, by surviving discovery and winning appeals when you can get a fair trial in a blue state. If Pam Bondi or anyone in that chair moves too early, two things could happen. The accused will actually walk, and then you're not going, you're not getting it again. And the precedent is set that the DoJ prosecutes on political pressure, not evidence. Now, that's part of the frustration, because we've seen how fast. Is there any doubt in your mind if that was a progressive church and A bunch of Trump supporters walked in and did that, what they did in Minnesota, to a church. Is there any doubt that everyone in that church would be in jail today and charged with federal crimes? No doubt. But let me play the opposite side. The police weren't there. Why? Because the attorney general won't enforce things like that. Neither will the governor, neither will the mayor. So nobody is there to enforce it. So how do you get. How. They would have had the local authorities and then they would have bumped it up to a federal charge. You got to start with federal in these states because it's not working. We don't want to do what the other side does. Once. Once things bad or established, the other side uses it, and then. And then it's over. And it's over. A nation of laws requires restraint. When restraint feels unbearable, again, I'm just making the case for the other side, and I think it should be heard. Justice delayed is painful, but justice rushed is usually justice denied. And patience isn't cowardice. Sometimes it's the last discipline separating a republic from a mob. And I don't want to become a mob, but I also don't want. I don't like feeling like a dupe. And that's why, at the bare minimum. At the bare minimum, she should be replaced because she's a horrible communicator. Horrible communicator. She is not filling anyone with any confidence whatsoever. None. And she's, quite honestly, not alone. It's not just in the doj, but let's just. Let's just stick with Pam Bondi and the DOJ today before I widen this any further. We face a huge problem in our country, and I don't know how to fix it. I know what needs to be done, but I don't know how to fix it. But I do know this. There are millions of Americans who want it fixed, who will support. If the problem is the Senate won't let go of their little blue ticket thing, which allows them to say, nope, no prosecutor here, that prosecutor can't be appointed, and they're only allowing prosecutors who won't prosecute anything in their. In their states. Well, then tell the American people and the American people will rise up, and you can change that. But don't just let us sit here hanging. If that is the problem, tell us that and tell us how we can help fix it. But the problem is when justice is not applied equally, you start to think, well, maybe both sides are in on it, and that is going to be the death of the Republic. Somebody has to stand up and say, enough is enough. Enough is enough. Love to hear from you. 888-727-BECK. I'm going to get into Diego Garcia, the, the huge base that England is now. Like, yeah, we're going to give up because we don't want to be called names. Oh, my God. I also want to talk to you about the WEF and Davos and President Trump is giving a big speech there. I want to make time so I can give the speech I want him to give. Maybe, maybe it'll get to him. I really want him to give this speech to the wef. And also, if you are part of our insider, it's free this month. I think it ends this weekend. It's free@glenn beck.com you can watch the whole show, including the show behind the show. It ends next weekend, including the show behind the show. So when we go into commercials on radio, the show Glenn beck.com goes into more information and we give you more information with Jason and we're talking to the insiders and really wanting to hear your comments. What are people saying online? Ricky?

Glenn Beck (34:21)

Well, I will tell you this. We're right. I am absolutely right on this. The DOJ is horrible at communication. If there's a problem, tell the American people what the problem is and do it with credibility. Not. It's on my desk. What? I never said that. It's not on my desk. You blew all your credibility. You honestly should have been fired that, that next day. And because you weren't fired, you went on to say, the FBI is hiding it from me. I can't get it. And then, oh, no, the FBI's not hiding anything. I was just what wrong about accusing the FBI of hiding things and keeping it from the doj? Oh, my gosh, that's a pretty bad mistake. You should have been fired on that day. And that all happened in a week. So I am right about one thing. No credibility. I personally think, I don't want to say it because I don't know. I really don't know. I could make a strong. I just did. I could make a strong case. This takes time. But no, I can't. No, I can't. I go back. Fauci, Fauci, Fauci. How can you not make a case that no one did anything wrong in the COVID thing? Really? Reading Peter Strzok Nothing. Nothing there. All of the stuff of the collusion between China and the United States and the scientists in the United States and then you getting on TV and lying about it to the American people. Doesn't lying about gain of function, doesn't that count as a crime for anyone? That's a pretty big lie. It affected millions of people. See, I can't. I would love to be able to say that I giving them the benefit of the doubt, but that's why I led with the other monologue, because I can't give them the benefit of the doubt. I can on some things, but I can't on all of it. It makes no sense. Why aren't you going after there? There is fruit rotting on the ground. You can't even go and pick up the easy fruit off the tree. How about you stoop down and pick the fruit that fell from the trees at your freaking feet that's rotting on the ground. How about that stuff? Nope. Why? Why? America needs to demand an answer. Back in a minute. There are moments every day when you hand responsibility over to something or somebody else. You leave the house, you go to sleep and you just assume something. You know nothing really important is going to happen. I think sometimes something going wrong is not going to happen. Simply safe helps make that true. It's a system designed to pay attention when you can't watch your doors, your windows, your motion. You know the activity around your home and you don't have to guess after the fact. And if something does break that, that normal routine professional monitoring is there to respond immediately. And this is not about fear or paranoia. It's just about leaving important things unattended in a world that doesn't always wait for you to notice when you've left them unattended. Simply safe. It lets you live your life without leaving things to chance. You don't have to turn your home into a fortress or really relearn how to live. All you need is somebody who is monitoring a really good system that is designed to fit the way you live. Easy to set up. You can do it yourself, easy to manage, no long term contracts. And then if something goes wrong, you have somebody monitoring that will call police because police aren't going to respond to a burglar alarm. They don't anymore because there's so many false alarms. Somebody has to call and say, hey, this is real. Well, that's simply safe right now. You can get 50% off any new system this month only at simplisafe.com/back that simply safe.com/beck. There is no safe like simply safe. Doesn't matter if you drive a truck or a Tesla. Raising good kids takes the same kind of love. More Glenn Beck next.

Glenn Beck (45:44)

Hello America from the east coast of, of our continent. Welcome. Glad you're here. Yesterday Peter Schweizer was on. He is the president of the Government Accountability Institute and I told you, I think I, I believe his most important book that he's ever written is the Invisible Coup. It was released as a midnight tonight. It's number one in all books. I mean that's almost impossible for anybody to do, let alone a conservative.

Peter Schweizer (52:22)

Well, Glenn, you've talked about this, and of course there's a Supreme Court case on the issue of birthright citizenship. The idea that if you're born in the confines of the United States, wherever you're from, that child will become a US Citizen. China has really exploited this on an industrial scale over the last 13 years. And what do I mean by that? Well, the first thing is birthright citizenship. The federal government, the United States government has no idea how many birthright children have been born in the country because on birth certificates they don't take the nationality of the parents. So you ask the smartest people in the federal government, they have no idea how many there are. The Chinese government has calculated how many Chinese nationals have done this, and it is stunning. The Chinese government says over the past 13 years, every year, roughly 100,000 Chinese children have been born in the United States that are then taken back to China where they are Raised now, they are quote, unquote, US citizens. And when they turn 18, they're going to have the right to vote. They're going to have the right to get government jobs, they're going to have the rights of any ordinary US Citizen. But they're being raised inside China and that means we are going to have a wave of more than 1 million Chinese, quote, unquote, American citizens who are living in China who are going to have the right to vote, get government jobs. And let's remember the 2016 election with Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump was settled by 80,000 votes. So this is a massive, massive problem of US citizens en masse that are being hired in China that are going to have this influential effect. But it gets worse, Glenn, because that is the sort of traditional birthright citizenship model. You now have this problem, and I know you've talked about it, of surrogacy, these surrogates where Chinese nationals are finding what they call carriers, which is women in the United States that will carry their child. So, you know, the Chinese man donates his sperm, an American woman carries the child. The child is then brought back to China to be raised as the child of this Chinese member of the elite. And that child will be a US Citizen. And again, we have absolutely no idea how many people have done this. Now, the Wall Street Journal reported just a couple weeks ago, one man in China, a businessman who is close to the CCP elite, has more than 100 children who are US citizens, who is he has conceived this way. And in the researching my book, we found just in Southern California itself, 107 Chinese owned companies that are in this surrogacy business. So this is a massive, massive national security threat done cleverly in a way that you would expect the Chinese do it. That demands immediate attention.

Peter Schweizer (58:30)

Well, what I appreciate is that Trump has taken on the issue of birthright citizenship square on. You know, the notion that people have when it comes to birthright citizenship is this is kind of a random thing that sort of happens. Somebody sneaks across the border and, oh, they give birth and oh, what's the big deal? But China has created this industrial model, and I think that is going to get, you know, the attention of this administration. And I have reason to believe, I won't go into details, that the material in this book will figure in the case that the administration brings before the Supreme Court. In other words, this is how this situation is being manipulated. But let's also go on, by the way, to some of the US Enablers, because China started doing this, as you pointed out 2011, 2012, that's when it really kicked off. They've had enablers inside the United States. Barack Obama in November of 2020, 2014, made Chinese birth tourism easier because he announced a 10 year visa program with the Chinese. And he also said that individuals who were coming from China who were pregnant, that was not a not allow them in the United States. And so what that means is once they got the first visa, they did not have to check in with authorities when they came back. And so there are numerous instances in the book where you have military officers who had senior Chinese military officers who've had three children in the United States using these 10 year visas. And I quote in the book, Professor Bobonas, who's a professor in Australia who studied this, he says, quote, young Chinese women granted renewable 10 year US multiple entry visas have as much as 25 years of fertility ahead of them. And his prediction was that as a result of this and where we're heading, if we don't deal with this, we are literally looking at millions upon millions of Chinese nationals who get U.S. citizenship through birthright citizenship, who are going to be playing central roles in American society by voting, by dictating the direction we go, and by taking crucial government jobs. So we absolutely have to stop this in the tracks. When it comes to birthright citizenship and the case before the Supreme Court, we.

Glenn Beck (60:57)

Are dealing with some of the biggest issues. Literally, I believe life and death is what is at stake for Western civilization. Peter has written the Invisible Coup. It covers all of it and you really need to read it. It is available everywhere. Again, my highest recommendation, and I can't name another book that I think you should read over this one, the Invisible Coup. Get it now. Wherever books are sold, I'm going to come back and we're going to talk about Islam and their jihad against Western civilization in just 60 seconds. First, Burna. Good. Good decisions are easier when you have options. Bad situations get worse when you don't. And the burn, a compact launcher, is designed to give you a middle option. It uses compressed air to fire projectiles that release a powerful irritant on compact or impact. It is, it will cause, you know, disorienting disorientation. It will also if you're using the pepper spray in it, when it hits you, pepper is released and that's really bad. My favorite is the tear gas. I mean, if you're going to go, go big or go home. It's easy to carry. It's legal in all 50 states, doesn't require a permit anywhere Situation goes sideways, you need to have options that changes the outcome. The compact launcher is built for real life, not edge cases. It's lightweight, it's easy to use, and it's designed with you in mind not to be locked away and left at home because it's too cumbersome or too dangerous. There is a complex decision tree. In that moment, you aim, you, the effect is immediate and police come. And you're not in jail because you just took somebody's life and you just did what you thought was right at the right moment. I want you to go to Burna B R N A.com Glenn. Learn more about this amazing weapon. It's Burna. Burna B R n a.com Glenn. You can try before you buy at Sportsman's Warehouse located near you. Find the location at Burna.com/. Glenn, 10 seconds. Peter, tell me now about Islam. I mean, this is my chalkboard from years ago, you know, beginning at Fox when everyone said I was insane that all of these guys would work together, not coordinated, but with the same goal. And their goal was to destroy America, Israel and the west and Western civilization, including Europe. And it's all happening right in front of us. We're seeing it. So let's take the next big chunk that everybody wants to look away from, and that is Islam.

Peter Schweizer (68:39)

PETER yeah, that's exactly right. It's the R1 visa program. It was launched in 1990. This is the program where mosques and Islamic organizations and Christian organizations can bring in religious people. The problem is that the Department of Homeland Security has looked at this R1 visa program and found that the fraud rate among those Muslim applicants is excessively high compared to other faiths. And just give you an example of what's happening. This is from a chapter of the book called Importing the Revolution, because we are literally importing the revolution. The Hadi Institute Youth Community center in Dearborn, Michigan is led by Imam Usama, who is an immigration immigrant from Iran. So he came to the United States from Iran in an R1 visa. He just gave a speech last year where he told his followers, we need to fight Western civilization. He said, quote, we need to expose Western civilization. The world needs to know this system is no longer the solution. These institutions are morally bankrupt. There is no other way but God, God based resistance and rejection of the system. And there are numerous other examples. So they have exploited this. And most of the mosques in the United States, by the way, are not headed by imams that are Americans. They are those that have been imported from these radical countries. And the message that they give to people that immigrate to the United States from Muslim countries is do not assimilate. You cannot assimilate. I just assume. Again, Glenn, pardon me for doing this, but let me quote from the director of care, which you've talked about a lot, a Council on American Islamic Relations, the head of Florida Care in 2025, just last year, he said to a Muslim group, how do we even justify living here? I mean, why are we living here? Have we asked ourselves this question, why are we living in the United States? The only answer I believe is excusable and justifiable is if we are living here to shift this country's political direction and spiritual direction together. And I could lead numerous other quotes. So their goal is, now, this is not come and embrace the American dream. Yes, you can practice your faith, but embrace American values. This is. We are going to import you into the country, and now we are going to exert social pressure on you and threaten you if you start to assimilate in any way.

Glenn Beck (77:21)

Yeah. Peter Schweizer. The name of the book is the Invisible Coup. The Invisible Coup. I cannot recommend it highly enough. And as Peter said, he believes this is, this information is going to play a role in the coming months with the administration. I believe it will too. You have to be prepared to be able. Because no one's going to make this case. No one is going to. I mean, I swear to you, I wish there was a, an office of the chalkboards because I wish I could make the case to America of what they're doing. I try to do it every day, but more people have to see it, know what's going on because you are essential in making the case on what all of these policies mean. I'm going to take a break at the top of the hour. I'm coming back. We're going to reset and go to Diego Garcia. Do you even know what Diego Garcia is? Probably the most important strategic base in the world. And there's a big hassle about it today because Great Britain is giving it up because they've been called colonialists. Well, that affects us and Trump. About a year ago when they announced this, Trump said, okay, well, I mean, I guess I'll go along with you. I understand there's a, there's a long term lease there, but now he brought it up yesterday because he's saying, look what you're doing there. And you expect me to believe you're going to hold on to Greenland? You're not. Let me tell you what the British just gave up. Up. Because Owie, it hurts to be called a colonialist. When you hear what they've given up, when you hear what they've put in jeopardy. No one can guard us but us. Do not count on another country to guard us. And you know what? It's high time every country says that about themselves. It's time Germany says we can't count on France. I mean, well, I don't know if anybody's ever counted on France, but it's time for countries to say we are responsible for our own citizens and our own nation because the world is fracturing so fast. So I'll give you that here in just a minute. First, rough greens. I'm guessing that if you own a dog, that dog means more to you than a lot of the relatives that you have in your life mean. Dogs become part of the family. We want them to be healthy. Healthy. I've seen what proper nutrition can do for a dog for years. Uno was. I mean, I really thought when we started feeding Udo food with rough greens on top of it, I really thought that his biggest problem was he just wouldn't eat. And so I just wanted. I mean, if I could put sugar on it and he would have eaten it, I would have done it. Because we used to have to hand feed him. I mean, we'd stand there with him. If we moved, he'd stop eating. It was horrible. He would never eat. So I thought he had an eating problem. No, he had an eating problem, but he also. We were feeding him food and we were feeding him good. You know, the prescription dog food kind of stuff. Really supposed to be the best, but it's kibble and everything is baked out. So you need to put all of that stuff that's alive back into your dog's food. And that's what rough greens does. Live nutritional supplements. Now we saw a difference. Not only did he race to his bowl to eat, he didn't have to stand there anymore. He loved his food after we put rough greens on top. But it wasn't an eating problem. I. And it wasn't an age problem. He was aging out earlier because he wasn't getting the stuff he needed. He was acting like an old dog, which I thought was appropriate until we started feeding him rough greens. And then I saw him. Oh, my gosh, he's like a puppy again. Just cover shipping. You'll get a free jumpstart trial bag of rough greens@roughgreens.com if you use the discount code Beck. Claim your jump. Jump start trial bag. It's free at ruff greens.com promo code beck. Just add rough greens and watch the health benefits come alive. Big tech wants clicks. We want connection. There's a big difference. Glenn Beck will be back after this.

For years, I have heard the same story from listener after listener after listener. They know they need help with their hearing, but they are intimidated by the process of getting that help. And it's also really expensive. The tiny budget, the little gadget apps that you have to fight with. It's too much. Well, somebody finally said, why don't we just make this simple and affordable?

The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Tomorrow, the President of the United States is going to be in Davos and he is going to speak to the World Economic Forum. And I've got a speech I want him to give. If I have time this hour, I'm going to share that with you. But, yeah, I think if I were a betting man, I would say it's going to be very strong speech and it's going to be, basically, we're not playing your game. You know, we love, love to work with you when we can, but we're not playing this game because you guys are on the wrong track. But we'll see. I just know that, you know, he started the week with Greenland, and yesterday or early this morning, he tweeted about Diego Garcia. If you don't know what Diego Garcia is, give me a couple of minutes and let me explain why. The President's strategy makes total sense, especially when you see what the British are doing with Diego Garcia. We'll start that in 60 seconds. First, American Giant. I'm not going to tell you that all the founding fathers would have worn American Giant, you know, the hoodies. I'm not. Thomas Jefferson might have had opinions, you know, but, you know, I think he would have cared about, you know, making things here, making them well and not cutting corners. And that's exactly what American Giant does. They're making their clothing right here in the United States from premium American cotton wool, every stitch, every zipper done in domestic factories from the Carolinas to California. This is what American manufacturing looks like when it's done with pride. And it makes a difference. And it's a difference that you can feel the minute you put that sweatshirt on. American Giant started with a simple idea. If you're going to put your name on something, it should Last, you should be proud of it and you should be proud that it was American made. That's why their hoodies are heavy, well constructed, built to hold their shape. Not the kind you replace season after season. When you wear American Giant. You are supporting American workers and American skill. And you're proving that we still know how to build things in this country the right way. So buy American today at American Giant. American-Giant.com Glenn Save 20% when you use my name for your first purchase. It's American-Giant.com Glenn. Then, okay, where do I start? Well, let me start with Europe. Let me start with Europe. And then I'm going to take you to a chalkboard. Europe is going to fall, period. And it's not going to fall because it was conquered. It's going to fall because it's decided it's not worth standing. NATO is worthless. It exists as a press release more than a deterrent. Its power is nothing but theoretical, conditional. It's wrapped in footnotes, domestic politics, all of this crap. It depends openly on the United States to do what Europe won't do, what they won't pay for, what they won't prepare for, what they won't provoke and if necessary, what they won't believe. Life, what they will not bleed for. And I'm not bleeding for anybody else. And this is nowhere as clear as it is in Great Britain, especially today. Britain is now speaks the language. I mean, I think this is the nation of Winston Churchill that used to speak with resolve. Now their, their language is all international law and managed transition. That's really important. Manage decline and managed transition. And they're giving up strategic ground here not because they have to, but because they don't believe. They don't believe it should carry the moral weight of power anymore. Let me tell you about Diego Garcia. Diego Garcia is one of the most strategic bases in the world. Diego Garcia is equidistant. It's in the middle of the ocean. Equidistant from the Middle East, East Africa, India, Pakistan, Southeast Asia and Western China. You can strike any of our foes in this area without flyovers because it's out in the ocean. You can't get, it's not easy to get to. We have everything staged there in case there's a problem with Taiwan, in case there's a trouble with, you know, Japan or South Korea or in the Persian Gulf. This is where aircraft carriers are stored. This is where nuclear submarines sit. I mean, it is a deep water port and it's strategic. You can strike Anything at any time from this location. And it doesn't have a host nation. There is no government. It's, it's just this little spot of land that we made into an, a, an air force base and a naval base. And so there's, there's no, there's no protests. There's nothing. Okay. It's just pure position of power, air base, deep water port. It's pre positioned for war. It's listening station. It has our nukes. It watches for nuke launches from China, North Korea, Iran. It is also when we had the space shuttle, when it would come, when it would take off, they would always say they're now past turning around. They can't land at, you know, anyplace else. They have to go to Diego Garcia because it's on the other side of the planet and that's where sometimes our space shuttles would, would reentry. So it is important for space as well. Most importantly, it is the strategic point for all of international shipping. The reason why we have such stable international shipping to and from China and, and the Far east is because of this. It is also the reason why we have protected oil from the Straits of Hormuz because of Diego Garcia. Last year, when the Prime Minister was here in Washington D.C. with our President, he said, by the way, the international courts, they're very upset. They say that we're colonialists and we don't want to be a colonialist country anymore. So we're going to have to give up Diego Garcia. But we, we, we expect you're not going to do it. Oh, thank you. Okay. It's just, it's just better for us if we are not part of that anymore. Okay? So Trump said, I can see your point. I guess so. I mean, we'll take care of that. And so we did. Well, now, now that Greenland, everybody's like, why? What is green? Why do you want Greenland? You're just an aggressor. No, now you've brought this up and said, this is why we want Greenland. Okay? Because what, you, you don't want an alliance. You want dependency with a smile. We're, we're not going, we are not doing all of this for you. So you can sit back and go, oh, well, we're not an aggressor. We're not a colonialist country because we get that crap too. We just fight it. But they gave into the international court, okay? So, you know, they inherited security, a lot of it from us. They outsourced their defense from us. They convinced themselves they, that Their history was over. They dismantled their armories, their armies. They. They mocked their. Their borders, treated their sovereignty as a social construct. And now look at the situation they're in. They've. They've welcomed millions of people in, as have we, with no attention, no intention at all of assimilating. And then they're shocked. What, there's a parallel society happening. I don't. What, I can't. And, well, we don't want to be colonizers. Well, what the hell are they? They're colonizing your country. They cut deals with Russia, even though they know that's really bad, but they do it anyway. They're. They're. They're financing the regime. Russia that they fear the most. They've chained themselves to China for manufacturing. They've hollowed out their own economies, and they've lectured the United States for being too strong. Oh, okay. Well, you know what? I think the west needs a good, strong defender myself. And here's what's happening. Donald Trump does not believe the west is. Is a social construct. He believes it as a civilization. He believes it is something that has been good, and he believes that it's worth defending, but it'll only be defended by people who are willing to bear the cost. And Europe is not. Let me tell you, really, seriously, you know, Canada is thinking about sending a few troops to Greenland, too. Oh, boy, you scare me. Canada and France and Denmark, the only country over there that scares me is Germany. And that's just because I know what those sick freaks do. Everybody else, oh, wow, you're really frightening. You're really frightening. I don't want to take it. I don't want to send planes to Greenland. I'm not for any of that. I don't want war. I don't want any of it. I would like to buy it. I'd like to do a treaty. But Donald Trump, I am telling you now, he sees war on the horizon and not a war, that he is causing a war, because all of these countries are collapsing. I've been talking about this for. For almost 20 years. The last stage is war, because that's how you change governments, currency, and borders. So what America should be asking itself right now is whether or not NATO is going to survive. Is NATO going to be. Survive? Is it going to survive? Is Europe going to survive? Are they doing the things to make themselves stronger? Or are they just a bunch of nations that just give speeches and resolutions, you know, because the world will once again measure things the way it used to measure things. Who showed up who paid, who acted, who bled, who died, and who hesitated. Right now, Great Britain and much of Europe are signaling something I think very unmistakable. They expect the United States to stand alone again while they preserve comfort, avoid confrontation, and hope history grants them one more exemption. But it's not going to. It's not going to. History doesn't grant exemptions. It doesn't. It only tests resolve. And they have no resolve to stand and be who they were born to be. I think. I mean, this is the craziest thing I've ever heard. When I got up this morning and I saw in the news Diego Garcia is trending. I'm like, for what? I look into it, and I'm. They're giving it up. They're what? I mean, a year ago, President Trump was like, I get it. I understand. He was being a diplomat. No more time for diplomats Now. Now Greenland, too. You're telling us. Hey, will you watch our back over in Greenland? Because we really. We. We're all. We're kind of scared of the International Court. So you watch our back over here with Diego Garcia because you guys can take care of stuff. But damn it, we want Greenland. Oh. Because when the going gets tough. What? What? Let me tell you, tomorrow, Donald Trump is going to be at the World Economic Forum, and there is a speech that I want him to give. I want him to look the international European Community right directly in the eye and say, you know what? For more than three decades, a single idea shaped global policy. And that idea. That idea is just wrong. And we're not going to do it. The idea was that nations were outdated, that borders and sovereignty and culture and democratic consent should give way to permanent global management by unelected institutions. Not gonna stand for it. Let me give you this speech in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. Our sponsor is Patriot Mobile. Remember the school bully, the one who took your lunch money at recess? Remember the moment you realized that if you kept handing it over, he was never gonna stop because that's what he does. Okay, why would he. Then you learned then and there that giving money to people who don't like you and want to do harm to you is really a bad idea? Or did you learn that? Of course you did. We all did. That's how a lot of people were treated by their cell phone company right now. And yet we're still giving them money, okay? They take your money every month and they use it to fund causes and activism that you don't agree with, and then they count on you never. Counseling and canceling and pushing back. Patriot Mobile exists for the moment, right now. When you decide, I'm done with that. They provide reliable nationwide service on the same major networks that you're already using, but they support faith and family and freedom instead. Sometimes, you know, standing up doesn't require a fight on the playground. It just requires a switch. Go to patriot mobile.com beck right now. 972-patriot. 972-patriot. Use a promo code beck. For a free month of service. It's patriot mobile.com/beck. Or call 972-patriot promo code beck. Make the switch today. 10 seconds. Station ID. All right, so this idea that the. That the WEF has been giving that is over, is that nations are outdated. Borders, sovereignty, culture, all of that, it's over. And he needs to say tomorrow, that era is over. You know, it's not over because of ideology and not because of politics, but because it is a failure. It has hollowed out our middle class, not just in our country, but all over the world. It is destabilized. The democracies. Are we stronger because of it? Now it rewards corruption. It punished production and replaced accountability with bureaucracy. Tell me how this is good. And then when the financial crisis comes, any crisis, financial, medical, military, it was nations, not global panels, that were forced to answer for the consequences. It was individual nations that answered for it, except for Covid. And look at your track record on that. Donald Trump needs to look him right straight in the eye tomorrow and say, let me be very clear. Cooperation is not over. Trade is not over. Engagement is not over. But what is over is the belief that the world can be run by people who no one elected, using rules no one voted on, enforced by institutions that no one can ever remove or stop. What's begun is a return to reality, and I'm your reality check. A return to strong sovereign nations working together openly, directly, and with responsibility to their own citizens first. Because that's the only model that has ever produced lasting peace and prosperity. And it's not theory. I'm not. I'm not here to tell you. I hope he says something like this to tell you a theory. I'm here to take action because it's already underway in the Arctic Circle, in the North Atlantic. We are acting to secure critical shipping lanes, energy access, defense, infrastructure. Because the map matters, geography matters, Greenland matters. And ignoring that reality doesn't make it disappear. In our own hemisphere, we are confronting the collapse of Venezuela, a country destroyed by corruption, criminal networks, and authoritarian rule. And you want more of it? It's not just a tragedy for its people. It's a regional security and. And migration crisis. And we're not going to pretend like you're pretending otherwise. Now, accountability has got to begin, and we begun it in the Middle East. We're dealing with Iran as it is, not as we wish it were. Nuclear ambitions, terrorism, regional destabilization. They're not misunderstandings. Those are clear choices. And choices have consequences. And at the same time, we're restoring energy, realism, industrial strength. We're securing our borders. We're. We're trying to bolster our currency sovereignty at home because we cannot lead abroad if we're weak within. What I want the President to say at the World Economic Forum tomorrow is this. Let me say this directly to you. I came here with all of my people because I want you to know America is done outsourcing its strength. We're done outsourcing our security and our future. We're done pretending that prosperity comes from paperwork instead of production, or that peace comes from a conference instead of deterrence. But, no, we're not turning inward. I invite every serious nation here to work with us, not through a distant bureaucracy, not through ideological frameworks, but nation to nation with clarity, fairness, and mutual respect. If you believe in growth built on work, security built on strength, cooperation built on consent, then there's a place outside of America for what's coming next. Because you're denying what's coming next. If you believe the old system could just be managed better, regulated more carefully, or explained more pervasive, persuasively with your. With your citizens, then understand this. The world has already moved on from you. You already have lost. And I may be a temporary president, but I'm doing everything I can. This is not a pause, and it's not a negotiation. I'm here to announce a transition. The era of unaccountable global management is over. The era of sovereign cooperation has begun. We're moving forward decisively, openly, and with confidence. You want to join us? We welcome you as a partner. But we're not waiting around, because what's coming is not good. And it's right around the corner. You imagine the President coming in and saying that. I mean, that is a. That's a Gorbachev tear down these walls speech, and that's exactly what he needs to say. That's what Reagan said by saying, you know, tear down this wall. What he was saying was, your era is over. And that's what the President needs to say tomorrow. And I hope he's. I hope he's there. I really hope he's there. He, he, I mean, he's gotta be. I mean, everything he's saying, he knows what he's dealing with, but he is, he's bringing everybody. We're having the largest delegation anyone has ever bought brought to Davos, and that's tomorrow. And I think that's just to show strength in numbers. Like, okay, we'll be on every single one of your little conference talks. United States is going to be heard on this. We're playing a different game. Wouldn't that be nice? More in a second. We're going to show you and expose some corruption in yet another state. Breaking news next. Most of the time, instant gratification is not a good thing, you know, for us as people.

Glenn Beck (120:10)

James, I Appreciate it. Thank you so much. I appreciate you sharing the story and keep up the good work in Montana. God bless. That's James Brown. He's the Montana Commissioner of Insurance and he's a state auditor. I mean, every state should be doing this. This fraud is everywhere, gang. It's in all of our states. And, you know, you're either part of a state that wants to get to the bottom of it and stop it. I mean, I said this in 2008 or 9, you watch, what's happening right now will end up being the largest heist in human history. It will be the largest transfer of wealth in all of human history. They are going to rob the Treasuries, and they are. And we're seeing it in real time. And I just don't understand why more people in their own state. How do you stand there and say, I don't want people arrested? You know, in Minnesota, how. How is it you're not standing up and saying, you know what I mean? Governor Walz, Mayor Fry, I would like you to sit down with a doj. I think there's some questions maybe you guys should answer. I don't want Somalis, you know, summarily rounded up, and that's not happening. But how do you just go along? You've been robbed. I mean, think of how ill that is. Think how sick you have to be. You have just been robbed. The children in your state who are the most vulnerable, you say you're standing up for the Somalians because they're the most vulnerable. Really? I don't know. I think the children that your state and some Somalis in the community robbed, I think they're more vulnerable. They took your money. They robbed you. They took money and food and medicine out of the mouth of the most vulnerable children in your state. And you're standing up and saying, there's an injustice. Look at what the DOJ is doing. You're out of your mind. You're. You're sick. I mean, it is a mental disorder. It really is. Back in just a second. Let me tell you about Relief Factor. A lot of people don't realize how much energy they're spending just managing discomfort, shifting in a chair, avoiding certain movements, planning around what your body's going to tolerate that day. You know, can we do that early? Because I don't know if I'll be there, you know, in the afternoon. Relief Factor was designed especially for you. It's a daily supplement designed to support the body's response to inflammation, which is one of the most common Sources of everyday pain and stiffness. Consistency is the point here. If you take it daily, you take it as directed. Relief factor helps reduce that friction that makes simple things harder than they need to be. And when your body cooperates, you get more of your day back. You get more of your life. Less adjusting, more moving forward. And over time that adds up. You think less about what hurts and more about what you want to do. Days feel less negotiated and the background noise that pain creates starts to fade. I want you to call relief factor right now and get their 100% drug free supplement. That's a three week quick start. 1995. Go to ReliefFactor.com or call 804 RELIEF RELIEF 800, the number four relief ReliefFactor.com Washington Talks America. Bill, you're on the right end of that sentence. Glenn Beck, back in a flash. All right, four minute free for all. Let me go with Don Lemon here. He is upset churchgoers are entitled white supremacists. Listen to this.

Summary

The Glenn Beck Program | January 20, 2026

Episode: Is Pam Bondi’s Day of Reckoning Here?

Episode Overview

Major Segments and Timestamps

1. Pam Bondi and Department of Justice Accountability

[03:20–25:01]

Key Discussion Points

Glenn's year-long promise to reserve judgment on DOJ/Pam Bondi ends; he demands results for a host of unresolved scandals and failures.
Examples of institutional failure: Epstein files, lack of prosecution for elite wrongdoers, slow action on government corruption and election misconduct.
Concedes possible systemic issues (confirmation holdups, bureaucracy) but stresses that public credibility is exhausted.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [10:16]:
“A republic doesn’t die only from chaos. It dies from tolerance of the intolerable. There comes a point when process stops being prudence and becomes protection...that’s what I’m concerned about.”
Glenn Beck [13:12]:
“When small offenders are jailed swiftly…but sprawling, massive, well-documented corruption in government produces years of nothing but hearings and no results…people see this pattern and go, ‘the whole system is rigged’–and that’s the end of a republic.”

Memorable Moments

Detailed FOIA request recap; continued silence from DOJ on exposing communications about Epstein, Bondi, Bongino, etc.
Beck’s “fruits rotting on the ground” metaphor (34:17) for low-hanging, ignored criminal cases.

2. Both Sides: Patience vs. Action in Justice

[25:01–38:37]

Key Discussion Points

Beck presents arguments for slow, cautious prosecution, citing Watergate, mafia cases, and denazification as positive examples of patience.
Warns that haste can allow the guilty to escape justice; demands clearer communication regardless.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [28:33]:
“Justice, the Department of Justice, is not a sword meant to satisfy you or me. It’s a scalpel. And scalpels are slow and precise and deeply unsatisfying to watch.”
Glenn Beck [34:21]:
“If there’s a problem, tell the American people what the problem is and do it with credibility. Not ‘it’s on my desk.’...You blew all your credibility.”

Memorable Moments

Beck’s final take: patience is warranted only if accompanied by effective, transparent communication – which Pam Bondi lacks.

3. Listener Calls: Frustration and Deep State Concerns

[40:19–45:39]

Key Discussion Points

Callers express frustration over Bondi’s perceived incompetence; Beck distinguishes between communication failures and intelligence.
Discussion on Bongino’s departure from the FBI, FOIA requests to uncover possible behind-the-scenes discord.

Notable Quotes

Caller Peter Schweizer [40:59]:
“[Pam Bondi] almost seems dumb to me…”
Glenn Beck [41:09]:
“I don’t want to call her dumb…she is a poor communicator, that is for sure.”

4. Peter Schweizer Interview: The Invisible Coup & Weaponized Immigration

[45:39–66:21, 67:59–77:21]

Key Discussion Points

Schweizer outlines three-pronged threat: mass migration from Mexico as demographic warfare, China’s industrial-scale use of U.S. birthright citizenship, and Islamist infiltration using religious visas.
China’s long-term plan: create a million-strong voting bloc of U.S.-born citizens raised in China.
Radical imams entering the U.S. via R1 visas, advising immigrants not to assimilate; Mexico’s government encourages similar non-assimilation attitudes.

Notable Quotes

Peter Schweizer [49:50]:
“The people, the foreign adversaries…use military terminology…[they] talk about reconquering…the United States…China believes…they are engaged in a civilizational warfare against the Judeo-Christian West.”
Peter Schweizer [52:22]:
“The Chinese government says over the past 13 years, every year, roughly 100,000 Chinese children have been born in the United States that are then taken back to China…”
Peter Schweizer [68:39]:
“The problem is…the Department of Homeland Security has looked at this R1 visa program and found that the fraud rate among those Muslim applicants is excessively high compared to other faiths.”
Glenn Beck [73:43] (reading lyrics):
“But I wanna remind the gringos I didn’t cross the border, the border crossed me…who’s the invader? I am a foreigner in my own land…”

Memorable Moments

Discussion of anti-assimilation Mexican and Islamist songs endorsed at official rallies.
Schweizer’s “marriage of convenience” between radical left, Islamist, and reconquista movements.

5. Global Strategy: Diego Garcia & Western Decline

[83:31–110:57]

Key Discussion Points

Glenn lays out the abandonment of Diego Garcia, one of America’s most strategic military bases, as a symptom of Europe’s “managed decline.”
Europe and Britain’s moral retreat undermines shared Western defense; Beck extolls Trump’s assertive “sovereign nation” doctrine as embodied in upcoming Davos speech.

Notable Quotes

Glenn Beck [85:39]:
“[The CCP] said the barrier between soldiers and civilians would fundamentally be erased, because the battle would be everywhere…They talk about attacking us through environmental warfare, financial warfare, trade warfare, cultural warfare, legal warfare—everything that’s happening today in the streets.”
Glenn Beck [101:28] (imagined Trump speech):
“What is over is the belief that the world can be run by people who no one elected, using rules no one voted on, enforced by institutions no one can ever remove…The era of unaccountable global management is over.”

Memorable Moments

Beck’s passionate hypothetical Trump speech for the Davos WEF, channeling Reagan’s “Tear down this wall” moment.

6. State Success: James Brown in Montana vs. Fraud

[110:57–120:10]

Key Discussion Points

James Brown exposes a $50 million ACA fraud scheme that trafficked Native Americans across state lines for fake treatments; Montana rooted out the scheme, unlike the inaction seen in Minnesota.
Emphasis on vigilant, local accountability as crucial to fighting systemic fraud and decay.

Notable Quotes

James Brown [112:21]:
“Montana is not Minnesota…I can tell you, unlike Minnesota, you’re not going to get excuses in Montana. You’re not going to get political cover here.”

Tone and Language

Candid, urgency-laden, and occasionally sarcastic
Glenn regularly references history (“Roman Senate…history is merciless”) and uses metaphor (“fruit rotting on the ground,” “managed transition”)
Guests (especially Schweizer) are direct, data-driven, while remaining accessible to a broad audience.

Important Quotes & Timestamps

Episode Takeaways

Institutional patience vs. public trust: Beck feels the DOJ’s slow pace is no longer defensible without clear communication.
Pam Bondi’s reputation: Regardless of her competence, Bondi’s communication failures have irreparably damaged DOJ trust.
Weaponized immigration: Schweizer details how foreign adversaries, especially China and Islamists, use U.S. laws against national interests. He suggests both right/left are complicit in ignoring subversive tactics.
Western civilization under threat: From government fraud to global security lapses (Diego Garcia), the “managed decline” mindset is leading to strategic vulnerabilities.
State-level integrity as hope: Montana’s crackdown on fraud stands in stark contrast to unchecked corruption elsewhere, serving as a model for civic action and accountability.
