Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (5:40)

Listen to this Democrat who's been on defense over Jeffrey Epstein is Stacey Plaskett. She represents the Virgin Islands. She was texting with Jeffrey Epstein the day of Michael Cohen's hearing. Her questions pretty closely followed the text messages between the two of them to ask about Rona Graff, Trump's longtime assistant, you were defending her today, in recent days, yesterday. And you talked about Republicans taking money from a Jeffrey Epstein. Here's what you said. Who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein. As I had my team dig in very quickly. Mitt Romney, the NRCC, Lee Zeldin, George Bush win. Read McCain, Palin. Rick Lazio, you mentioned Lee Zeldin there. He's now a cabinet secretary. He responded and said it was actually Dr. Jeffrey Epstein. Dr. That doesn't have any relation to the convicted sex trafficker. Unfortunate for that doctor, but that is who donated to a prior campaign of his. Do you want to correct the record on the people that you listen, I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein. Just so the people understand, when you make a donation, your picture is not there. And because they decided to spring this on us in real time, I wanted the Republicans to think about what could potentially happen because I knew that they didn't even try to go through the fec. So my team, what they did is they googled. And that is specifically why I said a Jeffrey Epstein, unlike Republicans, at least don't go out and just tell lies because it was not the same one. That's fine. But when Lee Zeldin had something to say, all he had to say was it was a different Jeffrey Epstein. He admitted that he did receive donations from a Jeffrey Epstein. So at least I wasn't trying to mislead people. Now have I dug in to find out who this doctor is?

Glenn Beck (7:30)

Can you just stop here for a second? There's so much to digest. We gotta just stop for just a second. You weren't misleading people because you didn't say it was the Jeffrey Epstein. You said it was a Jeffrey Epstein. What is the problem with getting money from Dr. Jeffrey Epstein? There is no problem. That'd be like. And Stubergear has been taking money from Bob Stevenson and what's the problem? He's been working for Bob Stevenson for years. He was delivering papers as a kid to Bob Stevenson's front door. Who's Bob Stevenson? There's not a problem with that. What do you. Why would you go out and say, you know, if she had come out and said, you know what, Lee Zeldin was also taking money from Bob Stevenson and Jim Furstenberger Steenberg, I mean, then it would be fine. You clearly were smearing. Not misleading. Not misleading. What's the problem from taking it from other than poor Dr. Jeffrey Epstein? Oh, my gosh, first of all, bad for that guy.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (8:40)

That life sucks. That Life does suck. You're Dr. Jeffrey Epstein. You got to think about a name change. But there's hundreds of doctor, not doctor, but Jeffrey Epstein's across the country.

Glenn Beck (8:51)

Hundreds.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (8:52)

And I, I mean, she was designed in a lab to make me happy. Jasmine Crockett.

Glenn Beck (8:59)

I.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (9:01)

Love her so much. She is like, if you could formulate the perfect Democrat, I think I would have to just put her out there. She just says the. Like she can't even get her bad defense right over this. Like she's trying to say, well, I didn't lie. That's your defense in theory. Right. Like you, I threw this in here and I noticed that at the time we talked about it, I think was it yesterday that she said, hey, Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah, she did. She knew that she. Which actually makes it worse, right? Like she knew she was lying. She knew there was a good chance this wasn't Jeffrey Epstein. But the last thing in the world.

Glenn Beck (9:42)

It wouldn't be a problem if you would say, look, all of these people have taken money from a Jeffrey Epstein. Doubt that it's the same Jeffrey Epstein. Might be, might not be. But I mean, I know, I know, but at least it would be no value. But at least you could say, I'm not trying to mislead people. I am trying to create doubt in people's minds. But I'm not saying he's taken money from Jeffrey Epstein. You know, when she just lists all of these people, I mean, let's look at her donations. Let's see if she's ever taken money from a Charlie Manson. You know what I mean? She's taking money from a John Wayne Gacy. Hello. A Ted Bundy has been seen around her house. I mean, it's crazy. It's crazy. And she knew exactly what she was doing. And I hope that she continues, I hope she continues, continues to gain power and love and respect from the Democrats because she is insane. She's insane. She's so reckless. She's insane.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (10:58)

She is. And by the way, this is the person that we are told that should be the face of the party that they should lean into. The way she talks because she's such a good communicator and she gets on all these shows, Glenn. I mean, this is a massive problem in our politics and it affects the left more than it affects the right. But it affects both sides in some degree, which is we are incentivized. The entire system is set up to reward people like her who just say the dumbest things possible and get. And the most irresponsible and reckless things possible and get all the clicks. I mean, this woman's been on like Colbert.

Glenn Beck (11:33)

Why?

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (11:34)

She's a complete nobody who is wrong all the time. And she's getting on all these massive shows. She's getting booked everywhere. She's living the ultimate life of today's modern congresswoman. And what's going to stop her? The incentives are right there for her to continue.

Glenn Beck (11:52)

Do you think that she doesn't know she's dead? I mean, because didn't a Crockett die at the Alamo? Was that her? I think it was her. I know a Crockett died at the Alamo. I'm not really sure. I'm not really sure. I mean, just what a dope cling.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (12:09)

Can I just point out, it's like I'm a part of a research team.

Glenn Beck (12:12)

Because she put her team on this.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (12:14)

Yeah, we gotta get to that.

Glenn Beck (12:15)

But quickly.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (12:16)

But quickly.

Glenn Beck (12:16)

Yeah. And I mean, it was. I always thought that the especially Congress research would have these amazing tools. No, they don't. And we, like, we, our team struggles over this. We're constantly trying to stay ahead of the curve. And the last thing we do is Google. Google searches, Google. That's what you do at Congress. Yes, Research. That is what you do. That is what you do.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (12:39)

Don't you have to fire your whole team after this? Like, if you were a rational being, I would be.

Glenn Beck (12:45)

No, but she. I don't think. I have a feeling that her team briefed her. It's why she did say a Jeffrey Epstein.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (12:53)

You're right.

Glenn Beck (12:54)

They briefed her and said this is not. Probably not the same guy. It might have even said. If you're Googling, it might have even said Dr. Jeffrey Epstein. Why wouldn't it? If that's who gave that money, it Most likely said Dr. Jeffrey Epstein. And so they would say it's not the Jeffrey Epstein. Yes, but that's okay. I mean, she clearly knew. So who's she gonna fire? This is what she wanted. Just the smear.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (13:22)

Do we have time to play the rest of this clip? Because there's more to this.

Glenn Beck (13:25)

Yeah, go ahead.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (13:26)

It's amazing.

Glenn Beck (13:26)

Play the lap.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (13:27)

Play the let's not. So I will trust and take what he says is that it wasn't that Jeffrey Epstein. But I was not attempting to mislead anybody. I literally had maybe 20 minutes before I had to do that debate. Yeah, but people might see that and.

Glenn Beck (13:41)

Say, stop, stop, stop, stop. So you don't say it. I literally had 20 minutes. So I didn't know that the sky wasn't on fire. That. That was actually the sun. I only had 20 minutes before I said, my God, the whole sky is on fire. This is why I love her.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (14:03)

This is why I love her. She had no idea whether the accusation she was making was true. And she didn't even consider not saying it. The only thing that she could come up with in her brain was whatever information comes in in this rush time period, just go with it. Because.

Glenn Beck (14:21)

And it's like, do you know why?

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (14:22)

Why?

Glenn Beck (14:23)

Do you know why? And I don't know if she's smart enough to know this, but you can say whatever you want as a Congressman on the floor of Congress.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (14:32)

That's true.

Glenn Beck (14:32)

And you can't be held liable. So you could say the worst thing. You could say he was having sex with 4 year olds with Jeffrey Epstein, and it could be a complete lie. And you cannot be held responsible because you said it on the floor of the House. That's why the standards are so low. The standards are absolutely so low for these Congresses. She could say whatever she wants. If she would have said that, not on the floor of the House, Lee Zeldin could sue her.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (15:00)

Right.

Glenn Beck (15:00)

You could say you knew what you were doing. You were smearing me and my reputation intentionally. You knew exactly what you were doing. And whether he would win or not, he could sue. She could have said, and he was having sex with a four year old. As long as she said it on the floor of the House, not a problem.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (15:19)

This is the Harry Reid Prison.

Glenn Beck (15:21)

That's how bad. Yeah, that is how bad. Our Congress is out of control. They've written all these laws for themselves to protect them so they can be completely irresponsible and it's fine.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (15:33)

Yeah. I mean, I don't know if it's that or if she's just a dunce, because it's hard to know with her.

Glenn Beck (15:39)

She's just dishonest. She's just dishonest.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (15:41)

Yeah, she's dishonest and bad at it. And that's one of the things I love about her. You know, she's not, it's not like she's pulling these things. There's no wool being pulled over anyone's eyes. It's, it's. No, it's just pathetic.

Glenn Beck (15:54)

Is there more to this? Can we play the rest of it out? Play the rest.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (15:58)

Make it sound like he took money from. I did not know. Registered sex offender. No, but I literally did not know. I love that when you search FEC files. And that's what I had my team to do. I text them and I said, listen, we're going up. They are saying that she took donations. Right. But someone might say, well, your team should have done the homework to make sure it wasn't the convicted sex driver within 20 minutes. You could not find that out. Not from the dog. I love this search on female. So, number one, I made sure that I was clear that it was a Jeffrey Epstein, but I never said that it was specifically that Jeffrey Epstein because I knew that we would need more time to really dig in. Well, Stacey Plaskett was texting the Jeffrey Epstein that we're talking about. You voted against the censure for her to remove her from her committees. You know, we pressed the minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, on this last night. Maybe you don't think she should be removed from her committees. Why do so many Democrats seem unwilling to say? I mean, it's inappropriate to be texting with a registered sex offender about what you're gonna ask a witness at a congressional hearing. So I'm not gonna necessarily say that that's the case. Now, this is somebody that was a former prosecutor. Now, I haven't sat down and talked about all the specifics of why Stacey was doing what she was doing. I know that when she got up and she spoke, she talked about the fact that this was one of her constituents. At the end of the day, what I know of prosecutors is that they are typically talking to co defendants. They are typically talking to the people that have the best information. And what you had was you had the former attorney for the president that was sitting there. And honestly, we knew, or she knew, or at least Jeffrey Epstein presented that he was very cozy with the President. He had more information. Registered sex offender or not. The bigger question is why is it that the president was so cozy with a registered sex offender even after he ultimately ended up with some of his convictions and seemingly he had absolutely been on the plane with him. We know about the birthday card. The bigger question is why is the President of the United States not the one that is in the hot seat for his relationship, instead of us saying, oh, you know what, we're gonna take her off of her committee because he decided to text her, stop, stop, stop.

Glenn Beck (17:57)

I can't take any more of this. I can't. I mean, literally, none of what she said there was true. None of it is true. And she's presenting it as absolute facts. CNN is allowing her to present it as fact. And the latest is the. The smear last week on the Epstein stuff. It shows that Epstein thought that the reason he was going to jail or going through all of the problem is because Donald Trump was the whistleblower. I mean, it's incredible what they can get away with. And all of this, absolutely incredible.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (18:31)

All of that relationship happened before these convictions happened. I mean, again, I don't know that she doesn't know that. But it's so fascinating to watch CNN's response to it, too.

Glenn Beck (18:40)

They give her nothing.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (18:42)

How many times have they said Donald Trump says this without evidence? Where's that on the, on the Jasmine Crockett allegations here?

Glenn Beck (18:49)

Right.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (18:50)

How about the situation where, you know, Kaitlan Collins, who at least I will say at least kind of asks questions here, but she can't even take responsibility for them. She's like, oh, well, some people are.

Glenn Beck (19:01)

Saying that you shouldn't just blurt out.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (19:03)

Obvious lies in the middle of a house session. Like, what do you mean some people are saying you never say that when it's the president of the United States.

Glenn Beck (19:13)

Now let's take you to Larry Summers when we come back. First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. When we talk about Israel, the wars, the headlines, the politics, it's really easy to forget the people who are actually living through all of it. Not leaders or soldiers, but the most vulnerable people who are already struggling long before the world turned against them. And I'm talking about the elderly and the poor and the isolated people who cannot endure another crisis without help. While most of the world is busy blaming Israel, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews would like you to look at the individuals that are involved. They're quietly on the ground supporting individuals with food and medicine and winter supplies and hope. This is what I love about the fellowship. They show up where the cameras don't. They step into the lives of people who feel forgotten and remind them that there are Christians all around the world who still will stand with them. At a time when antisemitism is rising again globally and here at home, this is the kind of compassion that matters. When you support the fellowship, you're telling a Jewish family in desperation that they are not alone and that we remember. And sometimes that makes all of the difference. So rush your gift now to 888-488-IFCJ. That's 888488-4325. Or you can give online at glennforthefellowship.org, read all about what they do. Glennforthefellowship.org do it now. It's IFCJ, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews standing together when it matters. 10 seconds. Station ID. We just did a quick Google search and we came up with Schumer. Got thousands in donations from Jeffrey Epstein. Now, it's not a Jeffrey Epstein, it's the Jeffrey Epstein. Why wasn't that included? Why wasn't that included? Jasmine? You know, you want to know, you want to make sure you know who it is. There it is. And it is confirmed. All right, let me go to Lee Zeldin now. Stu, tell the Lee Zeldin story here, quickly. No, sorry, not Lee Zeldin. Summers.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (21:30)

Larry Summers. Okay, so Summer, you know, the recent development, you know, he's, he's a guy who was, he was the treasury secretary during Obama. He, you know, he's been in some controversies. He's also, though, been, you know, right on some stuff. Like he was one of the only guys on the left saying, hey, this Biden spending is going to lead to inflation. Like, he was hammered on the left by that. So he's been all over the board on that front.

Glenn Beck (21:53)

Good friend with Bill Clinton.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (21:54)

Yeah. Big Democratic, you know, insider for a very long time, though. He has his detractors on that side. But he is in the Epstein emails that came out. Again, that's different than the files that will be coming out, the emails that come out. And for a particularly shady moment where he is talking to Jeffrey Epstein in 2019. Now, it's important to note the timeline here. It's one thing to talk, you know, Donald Trump was friends with Epstein in the early 2000s before any of this was even known. I don't think there's much to note about that, though. The media obsesses about it constantly. You know, even after he had his first conviction, it wasn't, you know, maybe widely known the scope of this thing until really 2018. In 2018, there was a Miami Herald report that laid all of this out in extreme excruciating detail over multiple releases about how bad Epstein was.

Glenn Beck (22:48)

That's when everything changes.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (22:49)

That's when everything changes. He's going back and forth with him in 2019. And what he's going back and forth with him in 2019 has become a bit of a conversation piece.

Glenn Beck (22:59)

Right. And it does not appear to be anything illegal.

Chip Roy (23:03)

Right.

Glenn Beck (23:03)

It doesn't seem to be anything, you know, with underage children or, you know, teenagers. It's just the fact that he's still friends with Jeffrey Epstein and asking him dating advice how to be. Can you be my wingman on this? Well, yesterday he went back to class at Harvard we have the audio next. Pretty incredible. Alright, first let me tell you about Legacy box. Every family has a box somewhere filled with moments that nobody has seen in years old tapes and film reels and photos. Little pieces of your story just sitting there.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (24:46)

You can do it now@glenn beck.com.

Glenn Beck (25:04)

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. So Larry Summers, you know, a, a government official in the past, a respected economist, I guess, you know, I've never found him to be, you know, a guy that, you know, I wanted his opinion on. However, he has been right about a couple of things. You know, for instance, the, the Biden, you know, dump of all this money. He said it was going to cause massive inflation, etc. Etc. But you know, I didn't need to get it from Larry Summers. The only reason why I found it interesting from Larry Summers is because, look, even somebody on their own side is saying this. You know, somebody has the guts to come out and say it. Now he is part of this massive dump of all of the stuff from Jeffrey Epstein. And the problem is, and I've said this to everybody on my staff, look, we are a group of people that are under attack all the time for what we believe. So don't ever write anything that you don't want on the front page of the New York Times. Don't ever put it down in writing. Don't ever text anybody. And keep your nose clean. Always keep your nose clean. Keep your wits about you. We call it a Glenn Beck tax. You're working for me. And we are under a microscope, fair or unfair, all the time. So you're going to pay a heavy tax. So if you want in on this circle, just know you can't be a dirt bag at any time. You have to keep your wits about you. If you have something you're doing that you shouldn't be doing, stop doing it. Clean it up. Admit to it and clean up your life, because that stuff will come out eventually. Here's Larry Summers. He knows. This is at 20, what, 18? 2019. He knows who he is now. This is after the Miami report comes out that shows exactly who he is. Everybody by 2018, you know who Jeffrey Epstein is now. It's not just hearsay. It's not. Well, he kind of did these things, but he got away with it, you know, and it wasn't really. It was just more of a slap on the wrist, you know, all the things that you're like, well, I don't know. I mean, I wasn't there. I wasn't part of the jury, you know, So I don't know. He seems like a nice guy. If you knew him, you could still kind of, I guess, talk your way into it by 2018. There's no way of talking your way into. This is a new. This is a good guy. And Larry Summers wants him to be his wingman, okay. And help him, quote, get horizontal with this woman who was a student of his. Okay? I mean, this is. It just gets worse and worse and worse. Now, he didn't break any laws. He didn't do anything wrong. He just shows really horrible judgment that he's still with Epstein. And he's not asking Epstein for business advice. He's asking him for advice on how to get, quote, horizontal with somebody. That. That's something that Jeffrey Epstein might have known. But you don't want his advice because he's a complete and total dirt bag on it. How do you get horizontal? I don't know. You send your aide out and you have them, you know, come in and start doing massages, and you trap them into this world. That's how. I mean, what advice do you need from that guy? Okay.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (28:25)

And we should know, too, that Summers was married at the time as well. I mean, just to add on to this, it wasn't just that he was trying to hook up with a student or a mentee, as he put it.

Glenn Beck (28:34)

Right, Right. But it's, again, none of it is illegal.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (28:38)

Right.

Glenn Beck (28:38)

Okay. And so now it's being released. And you might ask yourself, well, should that have been released? Well, yes, because you can't now edit what the government has, you know, has collected. You just have to say there's some stuff here that is illegal, some stuff that's not illegal, some stuff that, that, you know, you have to use your own judgment. You can't just tie everybody. That is now all this information has been gathered up. We talked about this three, four years ago. If you have that stuff, how many innocent people that have something collected about them because they were in a circle of this, but had no knowledge or information or anything. Are you going to start smearing innocent people? Because the information was collected because they somehow or another were connected. But nothing illegal or even immoral. Larry Summers Knew, knew it's 2018, he knew who he was and he is a direct friend who's now asking him sexual questions. I mean, the tie there is pretty good. But again, nothing illegal, okay? Nothing illegal. He's not talking about an underage girl or anything else. He's just dismissing all of that. And he writes it to him and he's like, hey, buddy, can you help me get horizontal? What do you think about this one? Okay, that just shows a complete lack of morals, a complete lack of common sense, and shows that, okay, you can't trust his wife, can't trust him, you shouldn't trust him. And I don't think he should be teaching at Harvard. Especially in today's world where you did anything wrong, anything just said a bad joke at one point and your life has been destroyed. Yesterday he shows up and he's gonna start his class at Harvard. Now it lasts less than 24 hours. They say, you know, you're suspended, you're not gonna be teaching here at Harvard. So he loses that gig. Probably the right thing to do. But I, I hate the mob mentality of all of this. But I do think that Harvard made the right decision. He should have made the decision. He should have went. You know, I. Sure it'd be bad for me to be hanging out with students when I was asking Jeffrey Epstein about how to get into my students pants. You know, bad thing. Um, but it's, it's amazing to me that he actually got to teach one class after all of this is broken. It's amazing to me. I mean, because do you think we wouldn't have even, we wouldn't have ever been able to even teach at Harvard? You know, there's nobody at Harvard that is like, you know what, in, in our, in our communications classes, we should probably get the opinion of Glenn Beck. There would have been protests and everything. Else wouldn't have been able to do it. Just because of my political opinion, this guy was allowed to go in after this scandal and teach. It just shows the hypocrisy of all of it. But, you know, he's not teaching anymore, at least for a while. They'll launder him and he'll be back.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (31:55)

Did we play the audio or was that off the air? I'm sorry, my brain is.

Glenn Beck (31:58)

Yeah, we played it. Yeah, we played it.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (32:01)

One of the things I think is interesting about this, because you mentioned, Glenn, the government has this ability to have all this information, and they have to get it out. They have to be transparent, have to get it out. And I understand that, that, that, that sentiment have to.

Glenn Beck (32:19)

Yeah.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (32:19)

Is that true? Is it. Is it true that they have to. This circumstance with this type of.

Glenn Beck (32:25)

So. So I guess Sarah just told me it wasn't on the air. I'm sorry. I confused it as well. So we're going to play it here in a second. But, yeah, I think they do, because the problem is they've lied to people for so long. So now that's not Larry Summers. No, I know it's not. I know it's not. But if you start editing, then you. You tube the credibility of the United States again. So it's kind of. We're in this place now where you had the chance to be able to say, hey, look, we had to protect certain people, blah, blah, blah. But now we know, especially like somebody like Larry Summers, he is a public figure. He's connected to Bill Clinton, who was on the plane with Epstein all the time. If you. If you start editing stuff out from Larry Summers, then people will go, well, wait a minute. What was this about Larry Summers? There was nothing there. Well, it wasn't relative. Well, it wasn't relative. It didn't have anything to do with anything at all. Well, we want to see that. And so it just causes even more problems. So the time to do that was a long time ago. Now, if you're not a public figure and you are just scooped up into this and you just wrote, you know, to Epstein for any reason, but you're not a public figure and you didn't do anything illegal. There's a case to be made. You know what? Hold that name back. Hold that name back. But it's still going to cause the problem with the government. It's still going to cause a lack of trust because they've lied to us for so long. But when it comes to Larry Summers because of his connection to Bill Clinton, and his friends in all of the government. You have to release it. You have to.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (34:09)

I mean, I get what you're saying, and I think you're right that nobody trusts the government. And I think these problems are real. But I think if you kind of step back for a second and think about this from a privacy standpoint.

Glenn Beck (34:22)

Oh, it's bad.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (34:23)

Do we want to set a precedent in which the government is collecting 30,000 emails and just blanket releasing them? That are when they have nothing to do with the investigation. Remember, this is like, I am fine with the way that this has been handled since this information came out. With Larry Summers. I think it's completely appropriate that he steps down from Harvard. That should be the first thing he does, because that's where the risk was.

Glenn Beck (34:48)

Right?

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (34:49)

He was going after people. He was tutoring or whatever.

Glenn Beck (34:52)

I'm honestly, having him on CNN or Fox News is not a problem. Do you remember what was the dirtbag that was with Clinton that was on Fox News forever? He was having Dick Morris. What a bad, bad guy. Okay. I mean, it's Larry Summers and Dick Morris. I mean, I think. I think less of Dick Morris. I only have one piece of evidence here with, with Larry Summers, but pretty serious. They're cut from the same cloth. It's a personal dirt bag. Okay? What difference does that make? We have personal dirt bags on television and, you know, everywhere in life all the time.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (35:29)

We'd have no reporters or people on tv. If we had this standard, we'd have none.

Glenn Beck (35:34)

It would just be blank.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (35:35)

You just turn on cnn, there'd just be no one sitting there. Which might be better than their current programming, honestly. But, yeah, no, I agree with you. I think that we have to be a little concerned because, I mean, the information that is material to the investigation. I agree with you wholeheartedly that stuff needs to come out. But when you're talking about whether Larry Summers was having or thinking about having an affair, that is not information we should necessarily know right now. I think the way we've reacted to it after we knew it is fine. But should we know that coming from the government?

Glenn Beck (36:13)

Can I add one thing to this? I think there is a case because this was a Chinese official. This was somebody who was. Was being a mentee to Larry Summers and she knows President Z, the father, is in bed with President Xi and the Chinese Communists and everything else. So it is important on a higher level. This isn't just some nobody from Nebraska. This was somebody, you know, connected to the Chinese Communist Party. And so it shows that his his selection of friends really, really bad. And a guy who is that high level should not have a national security clearance anymore. I mean, that to me, that's the real story. That's what should have been pulled first. Your national security clearance is gone. You show that you are, you are easily, easily easy to be blackmailed. Okay. I mean, I don't know what else you have to hide now, but you could have been blackmailed on this. You show absolutely no self restraint, no common sense. Uh, and you're, you're wanting to bed somebody that's in bed with the Communist Chinese. Chinese Communist Party. And you're a former treasury secretary. No, uh, no secular security clearance for you. That's what. That, to me is the reason it should have been released myself. By the way, here he is yesterday as he opens class at Harvard. Here he is. Some of you will have seen my statement of legrat expressing my shame with respect to what I did in communication with Mr. Epstein and that I've said.

Chip Roy (37:57)

That I'm going to step back from.

Glenn Beck (37:58)

Public activities, but for a time.

Chip Roy (38:01)

But I think it's very important to fulfill my teaching obligations. And so.

Glenn Beck (38:06)

So with your information, we're going to go forward and talk about the material in the class. Yeah, well, that didn't last. So there you go. All right, let me go to American Financing, our sponsor this half hour. Most people don't realize how much their life could change if they just fix their finances. Not a lottery ticket, not a side hustle, just getting control of the debt and the interest that is draining you every single month right now. With prices up, rates shifting, families stretched thin, this is the moment you can take your power back. American Financing is one of the few companies that I trust to help you do that. They are family owned and operated. They're salary based, which means they work for you, not commissions. And they specialize in putting together real practical plans that lower monthly payments, consolidate high interest debt, or get you into a better mortgage without adding years to the loan. I will tell you this, I didn't do any. They're the only mortgage company I've ever done anything for. And they called I think in 2007 or early 2008 and they said, hey, we're a family owned mortgage company. And I said, I won't take your business. I don't believe that these mortgage companies know what they're doing. They're going to get us all screwed and there's going to be a giant collapse coming. And they said, no, we agree with you, Glenn. We're not like that. And I said, call me after the collapse. Let me see how your, Let me see how your people are faring. Their people fared really well because they didn't play games like all of the other banks were playing. You can trust these people to help you out.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (40:16)

Most people think of home security as something physical, right? Like doors or locks or cameras or alarms or whatever. You secure the outside of the house and assume the rest is safe. But the biggest financial threat to your home isn't someone breaking in. It's someone breaking into your title. Home title fraud is one of the fastest growing forms of identity crime. It is, you know, someone forging a document, filing it with the right county office, and suddenly it looks like you sold your home to them. And from there you know, they got the home. They can take out loans, they can drain your equity, they can disappear long before you have any idea what even happened. There's not like an alert system that's like built into our government. What like seems like it should be your doorbell camera is something that you have outside your house. There's no equivalent to that here with your title unless you have Home Title Lock. Because they monitor the document that determines who legally owns your home, something no traditional security system can touch. They keep consistent watch on your title and the second something suspicious appears, you're notified. I partnered with Home Title Lock for a long time. You can protect your equity and find out today if you're already a victim. Use the promo code blaze@hometitlelock.com hometitlelock.com, you get a free title history report. You get a free trial of their million dollar trial, triple lock protection and 247 monitoring of your title records, urgent alerts to any changes. And if fraud does occur, they're going to spend up to a million dollars to help you fix it. It's hometitlelock.com promo code blaze hometitlelock.com promo Code blaze.

Look how much, look how Bad. This dump is right now where the government, especially with AI the government could release this stuff in sections. They could release it all at the same time, but they could even do a Venn, A diagram if they needed to. Look, here are the businesses. Here are the sexual things. Here are the intelligence people that are involved. Here are people who are not involved in any of it. And we've separated them out and we'll show you a Venn diagram. These people cross into several of these different things so you have some clue. But just by dumping everything, it ends up we're talking about Lee Zeldin. And meanwhile, the really bad guys could be getting away because we're not. We have no concept out of these thousands and thousands of documents. What's real, what's not. They should be talking about where is the sweetheart deal? Who is involved in the sweetheart deal? How did he get that done? Who was involved? Why did that happen? How did that happen? They should be. Should be sorting it out on who are the heads of the intelligence communities from all over the world, ours and everywhere else in the world, who met with him? What are their connections? What did they meet about? Those are the things that America. We should just look at the things that America is dealing with right now, now, and saying, these are the. These are the real issues. The real issues start at the victims, go to the sweetheart deal, and then go to intelligence and, you know, politicians that were involved in making all these things happen. They could so easily sort through all of this and do it quickly, even with AI, just to give the American people a leg up on this. Instead, they're just. Just smearing everybody with the same brush. Let me tell you about good ranchers. When was the last time you ate a steak and thought, wow, this is what it's supposed to taste like. Most of us don't realize how far we've drifted from real, honest American meat. The stuff in the grocery store that looks simple enough, but most of it is imported, it's processed, it's watered down, or grown under the standards we would never accept here at home. Good Ranchers is fixing that by going back to the way American meat used to be. 100% American beef, chicken and seafood raised on real American farms by real American ranchers. And the kind of quality that you can actually taste. Your family knows the difference. The flavor, the tenderness, the way it cooks. It's what meat is supposed to taste like.

Fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Becky Program. There is so much going on from, you know, redistricting and the state maps. We had a judge now just come in and tell Texas, you know, they're picking the map which will, you know, the real winner is George Soros and Gavin Newsom with that particular thing. And then also yesterday in Texas, we had the governor actually declare that King and the Muslim Brotherhood are foreign terrorist, transactional, transnational criminal organizations. We've known that for a very long time, but nobody's had the balls to say it. Texas and our governor has just declared it. Now, the question is, will it be enforced? Is this a campaign thing or will it be enforced? The guy who's running for Texas Attorney general, I know him, I know he's serious about things like this, but it's going to become very, very dangerous political suicide if you're not careful, because America is, I mean, it's, we're being held hostage by radicals. Chip Roy joins me to talk about that, the Texas maps and so much more that is going on. We'll do that in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. Every month, most Americans pay their phone bill without even thinking about where all that money goes. The big carriers are funding activism, politics, and ideology that you would never choose to support. Patriot Mobile is the only Christian conservative wireless phone provider in America. And they use the same nationwide networks as the big guys, so you get Excellent coverage, great 5G service, and lower prices. But you also get a company that shares your values. You know, these companies have become so radical because the phone business, the Internet business, you make so much money and it's the most stable business because nobody ever wants to switch away from it. And these, these mobile phone companies who are on the left, they know it. And they've been funneling millions of dollars into things that you would never support for years because they know you won't switch. Why? Why won't you switch. This is the easiest and this is the lowest level, the lowest gate to hurdle here to be able to save your country. Put your money where your heart is. Put your money with people that are actually fighting the same cause. And Those people are patriotmobile.com Beck. You're gonna save money and be consistent and actually fight against the people that you're fighting against in everything you do. It's Patreon mobile.com Beck or call 972 Patriot 972 Patriot. PatriotMobile.com Beck use the promo code Beck. And get your first month for free. Welcome to the program. Congressman Roy, who is a candidate for the U.S. attorney General. Chip, welcome. How are you?

Chip Roy (48:49)

Well, I'm doing great, Glenn. You just downgraded me, though. I'm a candidate for Texas attorney General, not United States attorney General.

Glenn Beck (48:56)

Sorry, sorry.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (48:57)

You're right.

Chip Roy (48:58)

No, no, no, no, no. But I'm delighted to be running for the Republic of Texas.

Glenn Beck (49:04)

Yes. So, Chip, when you saw this come from the governor, you and I have talked about things like this for a long time. This, this, this, that we should have done this with, with CARE and the Muslim Brotherhood a long time ago instead, under, I believe it started really under George Bush, but then it just got worse and worse and worse. We were letting CARE and the Muslim Brotherhood and everybody else into our own Department of Homeland Security, I mean, decades ago. Tell me a little bit about why it's important what Texas did, and then let's follow it up with enforcement of that.

Chip Roy (49:46)

Yeah. Well, first of all, you and I have talked about this for a long time, as I think I've talked to you on your show. It was the last substantive conversation I had with Charlie Kerr because it is very clear to me, it was clear to him. I think it's clear to you that our side for way too long, even today, although I think it's waking up, have been asleep to the war on the west that has been in process now for decades. And everyone's waking up to London. They're waking up to Paris. They're seeing now Dearborn and Minneapolis and then, oh, my gosh, mom, dawning. Then they're like, wait a minute, there's a problem in Texas, too. And some of us have been saying that for a while and going all the way back to the Holy Land Foundation. Right, the Holy Land foundation, which was a Dallas, Fort Worth issue 25 years ago. You and I talked about that last time. But for listeners understand how long this has gone back, you've got unindicted co conspirators associated with the Holy Land foundation that are tied to care. You have care celebrating October 7th. You have all sorts of indications. Back to story yesterday in the New York Post, our friend Amy Mack and her great organization, they helped break that story and get it out in the world about the extent to which CARE is tied and their financial ties to the student issues on campuses. All of the connections that they've got to the radical terrorism that we've got to connect all of those dots. And now enter the governor. I think appropriately, you know, they've been targeting epic. They passed something in the legislature this last spring. But we got to be much more aggressive. The governor is right to be aggressive here. This will give increased scrutiny and tools and I've got to dive into exactly what those tools are with respect to what it opens up at the state level. But the mere statement by the governor that both, you know, obviously dealing with the Muslim Brotherhood but the. But care that CAIR is in fact an organization that we should treat as such is so critically important because it's masquerading as some, you know, oh, the Council on, you know, American Islamic Relations. It's crazy. Like it's. And the idea that they should get tax breaks is insane, which is why I introduced legislation to take away their tax benefits. But that's the bare minimum, I can tell you. And I can't go too far into it. Lots of really good conversations are occurring with the appropriate officials, law enforcement entities in Washington to follow the money. We've got to follow the money. I believe that there is a criminal organization that is connecting all of these dots. You and I talked about that before. Not just the Islam issue and Islamification of America, but Also the Soros DA's, the open borders Antifa Southern Poverty Law center. And by the way, SPLC is now putting a target on me because I'm daring to speak out about this. It's all connected. It's all connected, Glenn.

Glenn Beck (52:40)

So what is it the state can do? I mean, first of all, I think think for anybody who doesn't understand and Texans, wake up. If you lose Texas, you lose the West. As Texas goes, so goes America. And as America goes, so goes the rest of the world. And you know, if you're looking at Dearborn, you're looking at, you know, these places in Minnesota and you're seeing that and you think that's not related to you. It is worse in Texas. The numbers in Texas are staggering. And what they're. I mean, just what's happening in the Small little town that my studios are in. It's the most diverse zip code in America, Las Colinas, Texas. And I have been ringing this bell for 12 years. When I first got there, I started doing stuff on the Sharia law, the movement to bring Sharia law to Los Colinas, Texas. And, Chip, I got to send you a copy of this. This interview I did. I did it with the. With the imams of this, the biggest mosque in Las Colinas. And one of them, halfway through, just blurted out that, yeah, I mean, we all agree that hands should be chopped off, you know, if you steal. And I just let him go for a while. And it was clear Sharia law is happening. And now they are. They are. They have put these Sharia courts into place to handle things because, well, it's their right to handle it as a religion. No, no, not when it comes to. Not when it comes to usurping the Constitution of Texas or the United States of America. And that's happening now in Texas. So give me. Give the person who's not necessarily paying attention some idea of what is coming and is here already in Texas.

Chip Roy (54:33)

Well, first of all, you know, you've got an explosive growth of the mosques that are growing in Texas. We've got over 300 and counting more being planted in Texas every day than any other state in the union. You've got the Islamic center down in Houston, which is 150,000 square feet, that has, you know, major issues. You notice, you saw that imam down in Houston that was going around saying, well, you can't put this on the shelf. You know, they're trying to take over and change what should be being done down there. That's implementation of Sharia. There are activist Sharia courts in Texas, which the governor rightly, yesterday said that they're going to go shut down because they're in conflict with Texas law. And notably with what he's doing with the. With the declaration, the governor is making very clear that he can connect the dots with the legislation that the legislature passed with that declaration to say no land interest can be acquired with anybody associated with these organizations. Now, again, I think this is the tip of the spear. I think this is the. I don't want to. I don't mean this negatively. It's the kind of obvious, let's go after these guys. But there are myriad organizations that we need to go after and shut down. And let's be clear, I don't even know why we're allowing any foreign nationals to own Texas land. Like, literally, let's Just be very aggressive and very clear. I don't know why mass massive corporations are owning our land, by the way. Separate issue, but all related. I'm as bothered also by tech, you know, boardrooms in New York, buying up our ranches and our meatpacking plants and everything else. Because again, this is all related. The Red Green alliance, the Marxist Islamic issue, it's all connected to root out and destroy Western civilization. So that is to say what the governor did is really critically important. It is a step so that we can go stop some of these things in these enclaves like Epic City, but we need to be much more aggressive. And again, I introduced legislation, as you know, to vet people for Sharia law and adherence to Sharia law when we're admitting them into the United States. But today I'm filing a bill called the PAUSE act to pause all immigration until we have sorted our crap out, until we've dealt with H1BS, until we've gotten rid of diversity and chain my diversity visas and chain migration, till we've dealt with Plyler veto, which by the way, we need to challenge, which was the Supreme Court case saying that we must educate illegal children, until we've dealt with birthright citizenship, until we've cleaned up our. Our mess, till we've put in place standards for not admitting people that are adherent to Sharia law, till we're removing people that need to be removed. Why are we importing more people? Let's put Americans to work. Work. Let's stop destroying our culture. Let's freeze it in Texas. Let's do exactly what the governor is doing and more.

Glenn Beck (57:16)

Did you see what's happening in Germany? In Germany, one of their ministers said, there's no longer a problem in Syria. The war is over. It's peaceful. Everybody in Germany who came for, you know, refugee status to Germany, you're all going home now. They're not going to do it. However, they did strip citizenship from a Syrian immigrant who praised Hamas as heroes. And this same minister came out and said, you know, your citizenship has to be, you know, contingent on shared systems of values. And they're starting at least to talk about stepping, stepping up. I think this is the right thing to do. Have we thought about, we thought about if you have refugee status and your part of the world has now calmed down, saying, get out, go home.

Chip Roy (58:13)

Absolutely, we should do that. And we've been talking about that and the need to reverse, frankly, the abuse. So there's two elements, okay? The reversal of the abuse of asylum, parole, refugee laws that were Abused. Right. We had people coming in who really weren't in need of refugee status or they weren't, you know, actually qualified for asylum. They were abusing parole. Supposed to be a case by case basis. So there's that whole mess. Then when you even had a legitimate case for asylum or for refugee status, then we should review those and say, okay, guess what? Things have calmed down. You can go back. Those are very specific provisions in law, you know, that are designed about specific persecution or very specific situations in war or otherwise. And when that's no longer the case, then you no longer have the reason to have that qualified status in the United States. So we should address that. But let's remember, Glenn, and I think this is so important that we have to understand, like, we're talking about the Muslim Brotherhood. I don't have it right in front of me, but it's red. The proclamation by the governor, and he was pointing out that, you know, when that organization was founded, like 100 years ago or something, you know, early last century, that it was. That it was founded, it was very specific about Jihad and very specific about jihad being an obligation, right? And that that obligation comes from Allah, and that's for everybody, adherent to Islam in the eyes of the Muslim Brotherhood. And so. So understand what's happening. And people need to realize that, because this is. Everybody wants to go and say, well, you know, we can't talk about this shit because the First Amendment bull. That is not true. Okay, first of all, we can talk about it because of the First Amendment. Second of all, we can talk about it because, yes, you can believe what you want, right? Our Constitution, our Bill of Rights says that. But when you are turning that into a political move, movement designed very specifically to undermine our country and to undermine the rule of law, then no, you do not have a right to do that. You do certainly do not have a right to be admitted into our country. And we need to recognize that and address it or we're going to lose. And then we're going to be like Germany and we're going to be like London, we're going to be like Paris, and we're going to be looking around going, what do we do now? Right? It's, you know, we have 10% of the population and growing and, you know, 1500 seats in elected officials throughout the United kingdom. You've got 85 jurisdictions in Scotland where they can choose Sharia law instead of or, you know, as an alternative to Scottish law. We can't get to that point. We have to stop this Right now.

Glenn Beck (60:59)

More in just a second with Chip Roy. He is running for the Texas Attorney General. He is a congressman now and a very good one. And I want to talk to him about the court system, because there's two other things that have just happened. We have a Clinton judge in Texas that has just blocked the Texas law that requires 10 commandments to be posted in school. And I shouldn't say that it doesn't require that they're posted. It is required that if somebody brings to the school the Ten Commandments in a certain format, certain size, they. They have to be posted in the classroom. The state's not paying for it. You have to provide it. If you provide it, they have to be posted. Well, a judge has just blocked that. And on top of that, a judge has also come out and said the redistricting map for Texas thrown it out. And it really leans everything towards the Democrats. What do we do about these activist judges? Because that's the other part of this attack, is the judicial branch is just. They become radicalized and they are usurping the authority that is meant to be for the legislator and the elected officials. We'll get to that here in just a second with Chip Roy. First, let me tell you about Simplisafe. Have you ever noticed that the. The only time your house makes weird noises seems to be when you're home alone? You know, you sit in the same living room all day with family, you don't hear anything. But the second everybody leaves, suddenly the walls are settling and the floor is creaking, you're like, what the hell is that? Dishwasher just called you by your name. You know, your house isn't haunted. Maybe it just needs simply safe. Simplisafe is advanced home security that actually makes sense for people who are normal. You know what I mean? There are no weird contracts, no strangulation fees, no. We'll send a tech out sometime between now and the end of civilization. Can you be there? You set it up yourself in about half an hour. I mean, I've done it. If I can do it, anybody can do it. And if you read the directions, you can even do it faster than I did. But anyway, the one thing I really love, Simplisafe doesn't just catch the big stuff. It catches every little thing, every open window, the door that didn't quite latch the motion that shouldn't be there. And if something is wrong, they have 24, seven monitoring agents that are on it in seconds, not minutes. They see it, they capture the video, then the audio they call the police and say this is not a false alarm. Get there now. There is an ongoing situation. It's simply safe. SimpliSafe.com Beck, you claim 50% off a new system right now by going to SimpliSafe.com Beck. There is no safe like SimpliSafe. SimpliSafe.com Beck 10 seconds back to Chip Roy. So let me switch because I want to get into the James Comey thing too. If he, if Chip knows anything about that to try to explain what's going on with this. But let me start with a Texas courts. A Clinton judge in Texas has just blocked the Texas law, brand new law requiring that the Ten Commandments can be posted in every classroom. And it there are like 30,000 classrooms I think now that do have the Ten Commandments in Texas. Judge has just blocked that. What does that mean to you?

Chip Roy (64:26)

Well, look, this is judicial activism and we could talk about that for a long time. I do believe that you asked what could be done. Let me just answer that first and then talk about the substance. The U.S. house of Representatives needs to impeach at least one of these judges, if not more, to send a signal to the judiciary they cannot do this. It cannot be acting with complete impunity with respect to the legislative branch and what the legislature decides and does decides into law and to just impose their own views over top of the people. And that's what's happening. That's the definition of activism. And Boasberg, for example, which is the judge that, you know, ruled that 18th, he couldn't tell Ted Cruz that, you know, his records were being searched. And the judge that, you know, has been effectively, you know, making up the law and very specific animus towards President Trump. He should be removed and the House should impeach him. I think there are others. For example, Judge Boardman who imposed her views about transgenderism in sentencing the individual who was trying to kill Justice Kavanaugh like it's insanity. So I introduced, I introduced articles impeachment to impeach Boardman. Brandon Gill, a fellow Texan I know you know, Brandon, Brandon introduced articles impeachment to impeach Boasberg. But the House needs to act on it, okay? Or we're not going to send the message that needs to be sent. With respect to the cases in Texas, the judge that you highlighted, the Clinton judge that did the Ten Commandments case, look, it flies in the face of existing jurisprudence. Remember that in Texas, we litigated, in fact, Ted was the Solicitor General, litigated the Ten Commandments outside of the Texas Capitol and defended that and we won. The judge knows this.

Glenn Beck (66:08)

Okay.

Chip Roy (66:08)

And with respect to the redistricting case, that was an abhorrent.

Glenn Beck (66:11)

Okay, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. I don't have enough time. Hang on. Let's go back to the redistricting case. I got to take a quick break and then we're going to talk about that. Also, what's happening with the Comey case? It looks like a judge is saying that can't be. That can't go to court either. This is Glenn Beck. When you look at what's happening in Israel and around the Jewish world today, it is impossible to ignore how dark things have gotten. Anti Semitism is surging. Jewish communities are facing threats and fear and isolation. And the people who suffer most are always the ones with the least. This is the moment when God calls upon his people to step up, to stand with others, to stand with his people. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the front lines of that work. They provide food and heat and shelter and medical care, the basics of human dignity to Jews who have nowhere else to turn. They lift up communities that the world has decided it's easier to ignore.

Glenn Beck (68:06)

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We're talking about to Chip Roy about the Islamification of Texas and the United States. What's going to be done A a new attitude from Governor Greg Abbott yesterday and a new proclamation that came out and said enough is enough on, on care and the Muslim Brotherhood. We're going to deem them terrorist organizations. We were just talking about what's happening with the Ten Commandments. And before we, before we switch here, one more thing on this, this Muslim thing in schools. You know, we can't have the Ten Commandments, Chip. However, at Liberty High School in the Frisco ISD in Texas, they now have prayer rooms for Islamic prayers. How is it we can't have the Ten Commandments in Texas, but the Frisco ISD public school, Liberty High School can have prayer rooms and nobody says anything?

Chip Roy (69:12)

Well, I mean, first of all, it's a double standard of the left. But let's take a step back. What you just said out loud. Frisco, Texas. Frisco. My daughter was born in Frisco, Texas, has now got Islamic prayer rooms. Okay, that should concern you. That should be troubling. And by you, I mean the listeners out there, like in Texas listeners. And yes, this 10 commandment case, it's judicial activism. The Supreme Court has upheld the ability to have the Ten Commandments displayed in public form. Again, there's the Ten Commandments sits on the grounds at the Texas Capitol. A case, like I said, that Ted Cruz litigated as solicitor General working for then Attorney General Greg Abbott, Governor Rick Perry. And we won that case. And I think we will be able to win that case when it goes up and is no doubt and is being challenged in the fifth Circuit. And then likely if the Supreme Court were to look at it, but I think the 5th Circuit will side with past precedents and say that we can have the Ten Commandments. But look, we've got to decide who we are as a people and we've got to start acting like it because this nation has been blessed because we are a Judeo Christian people who formed a country that is a liberal in the classical sense, you know, republic liberal democracy. And we allow the full range of views to be discussed and for people to believe whatever they believe. And you and I would die on the hill to protect that, to protect the tyranny of government over the my demand. But we're also a group of peoples bound together by a common set of ideals in our history and our founding. And when you break that down, you will no longer have a country. And that's what we've got. When those men.

Glenn Beck (71:04)

Well, you were saying a minute ago, you know, that should concern you that there are prayer rooms in Frisco, Texas. It doesn't concern me that there are prayer rooms. What concerns me is this is a coordinated effort to bring Sharia law into our country. I don't care if you're Muslim and you come here and you respect the Judeo Christian laws that we have. That's what our country was built on. That's where our laws are based on. And you say this is a really great system because it allows me and everybody else to worship God of our understanding. But when you are part of a movement to subvert that law and to fundamentally transform the United States into something that it is not, that's when I have a problem and that's when we should stand up. But that's one of the things that care does. Care makes anything that we have said Islamophobia. And so they shout you down and make you afraid and try to paint you as a hater. I don't hate, I don't hate Muslims. I don't. I do despise Sharia law and I despise anyone who comes here and wants to supplant the United States Constitution and replace it with Sharia law. That's a no go zone. No, sorry, not going to do it.

Chip Roy (72:24)

And the history of Sharia law and the history of those adherent to it would suggest that that is the goal and that is what we've seen borne out in countries across the world. So we should recognize that in carrying out our policies, policies and these activist judges, they are going to seed the ground, okay, in the name of the First Amendment, they're going to seed the ground with a supposedly secular society in, you know, essentially genuflecting to Bill of Rights while walking away from God. They're going to seed the ground for a world in which we are going to invite those who wish to, to destroy America to have a front row seat right here to do it. And we've got to stop those judges and we've got to act. And so, you know, go back to my point. The House representatives should act on such an obvious case like Boasberg. We should appeal immediately. And I know that my religious liberty friends will do that on the Ten Commandments and they're going to be litigating that. And I'm quite confident that the state will litigate that to defend those, the state law and to defend those schools. But then when you go to the redistricting opinion, like it's really extraordinary. I don't know if you read the scathing rebuke of the two judges, but particularly the one judge, Judge Brown, by Jerry Smith, right. Who was the dissenting judge in the three judge panel. So for those who don't understand when you have a, a case on the redistricting issues, right. It goes to a three judge panel. And this three judge panel had, it was a two to one opinion and it was a Democrat appointee appointed judge. It was A Trump appointed judge, Judge Brown, and then Judge Jerry Smith. He's been on the bench for a long time. Very respected, concerned.

Glenn Beck (74:24)

37 years.

Chip Roy (74:25)

Yes. And Jerry was basically cut out. They didn't do their normal deliberations. He wrote a scathing letter yesterday in addition to then filing a dissent because he was blocked out of the process. It was an extraordinary, essentially power grab by the two judges just to ram this thing through. I don't think that the Supreme Court's going to take kindly to that. I think that this stay application that will be filed at the United States Supreme Court, I think by tomorrow. They filed the stay last night with the district in the district court, but I think they will go to the Supreme Court with a stay probably tomorrow. That's obviously up for Attorney General Paxton and Governor Abbott for them to strategize on the timing, but I think that's right. And, you know, I think the court, I mean, Judge Roberts, for his faults on many opinions, has been pretty good on race. You'll remember the Supreme Court opinions that struck down the abhorrent, you know, language in Section five that was unconstitutional of the Voting Rights act, and they cleaned that up. And in that opinion, Roberts said this divvying us up by race is a sordid business. That was his quote. And I think Roberts will be on the right side of this. I hope so, because this is very clearly political exercise by the legislature. The judges tried to indicate that it was racial gerrymandering and notice the opposite. Texas is trying to undo racial gerrymander, which we believe is unconstitutional on its face. And you've got California out there who is taking five of the nine Republican seats away. So it's currently what I think, what, 45 to 9. And it's now going to be something like 50 to 4. My numbers may be off 1 or 2 to. It's crazy. And then in Texas, we were trying to kind of rebalance it a little bit and add four or five new seats. A lot of growth in Texas. And now they're going to say that that's somehow not possible because we're somehow doing racial gerrymandering. We're undoing, I think, racial gerrymandering with a politically motivated goal of having more Republican seats in a very Republican state. So I hope the Supreme Court sees this for what it is and issues that stay. But, you know, we'll have to see what they do.

Glenn Beck (76:43)

Let me take you to Washington again. This Comey thing is driving me out of my mind because once again, here's Somebody who looks like not going to pay a price for anything. James Comey, a judge has said that the government has screwed this, this up and gathering information and, and filing and so, so now it looks like the Comey case is not going to move forward. Any thoughts on this?

Chip Roy (77:11)

Well, look, I've not had a chance to dive into this as deeply. I know that the district judge, what, Nachman off or whatever the judge's name was pressed, you know, this, this opinion forward and you know, or I'm sorry, press not the opinion, press prosecutors on the hearing. And I don't know what the exact results gonna be. This is a Biden appointee and, you know, we're gonna see what the, what the result is. Obviously, Comey, we believe, lied to, I think, the Senate Judiciary Committee, among others, under oath. And that is, in fact, an indictable offense. And so, you know, I'll go look and see whatever they're claiming in terms of, you know, whether the grand jury got to see the final indictment or whatever these, these issues are. Obviously, as a former prosecutor, the procedures are important. You got to follow the procedures, do it right. But you also can't lose the force for the trees. I think Comey, you know, very clearly lied. And so we're going to, you know, hopefully this will, this will proceed. But that's about all I got on that one.

Glenn Beck (78:14)

All right, Chip, thank you very much. If anybody wants to get involved in your campaign for Texas Attorney general, how do they do it?

Chip Roy (78:22)

It chiproy.com c h I p r o y.com you can follow me at chiproy tx on x slash Twitter. And Glenn, always appreciate what you're doing out there. Thanks for being at the tip of the spear in the forefront of talking about this important issue about defending Western civilization and just all of the issues. I'm deeply appreciative.

Glenn Beck (78:43)

I tell you, Chip, I've been saying recently, I've been saying it for a while, since I wrote the chalkboard on what was going to happen, you know, back in Fox days. And I said all these people are going to gather and then they'll sort it out. Once they think they have it, they'll start eating each other. And you're starting to see that with the left now eating the Democrats. So Democrats are over and now it's just going to be Marxist, but it'll come down to the Marxist and the anarchists and the Islamist. And as I said, then in the end, it'll just be the Islamist against the Western world. Because I would bet on people who believe something much more than the Marxist. These people have religious zeal and they will, they will eat the Marxist and then it'll just be Western world against the Islamists. And I think, Chip, we are in World War Three. We just have not declared it yet and people haven't woken up to it yet. But we're at the beginning stages. You'll see history in a hundred years from now will write that, that this, these, this, this, the 1930s, if you will. This is the beginning of a world war and nobody has caught up with it yet.

Chip Roy (79:49)

Would you agree with that, Glenn? You. Yeah, I agree with you. You have and you were in front of it a long time ago. Others of us have caught up to it and frankly caught up to where you were. And look, it's, it is one of the core reasons I'm running for Attorney General. Look, I mean I could keep doing what I'm doing up here and God's blessed me the ability to fight and make changes up here and we've done some good things. But look, we have got to preserve and save Texas. And the battle is exactly what you said. You can't win a war if you don't even acknowledge that it's happening. And that's, that's the problem is that people are asleep at it. Again, like I said, is what Charlie and I last talked about because of the reality of what you just said and that vast network. We have got to follow the money and destroy that network. It is an integrated related network. You know it, I know it. I can promise you smart people in Washington are looking at this. I can tell you that I'm building teams in Texas to look at this right now and connecting those teams in Texas and Washington and other AG's offices, which is what I'll do on day one as AG. Frankly, once I'm blessed with the nomination, I'll be working on it all next year. We're going to build, build the team and we're going to go fight and dismantle it.

Glenn Beck (81:00)

Good. Thank you so much, Jeff. Appreciate it. God bless you.

Chip Roy (81:03)

Thanks. God bless.

Glenn Beck (81:06)

Burner launcher. I am about as pro second amendment as they come, but if you can stop a threat without taking a life, it's always a better outcome. And that's why I love the burner launcher. The burner launcher is a non lethal self defense tool that gives you real stopping power without ever having to fire a bunch of. I also like it because it's legal in all 50 states. You don't need a permit, you don't need background checks. There's no red tape. And if you're over 18, you can carry one. I think it's, I mean it's being used by law enforcement and the military, but also responsible Amer as a responsible Americans that want another option. You know, your kid goes to college, they can't carry a gun on campus, but they can carry a burner launcher and that is really important. Things go wrong. This fire is powerful pepper based projectiles and tear gas. They hit hard. They can incapacitate an attacker for about 40 minutes and give you time to escape without creating a tragedy that you can't take back. It is a way for you to protect yourself, your family, your home, your classmates without having to cross that line that you just can't uncross. Not every situation calls for lethal force. And sometimes it's the threat that escalates super, super fast. Sometimes it's a stranger just won't back down. Sometimes it's just a moment that feels wrong and you need to end it now. Go to byrna by rna.com learn more that's byrna b y r n a dot com Glenn go there now. You can try before you buy at a Sportsman's warehouse location near you. I got it last year for all of the kids in my family. So everybody has a Byrna launcher by r n a.com Glenn Freedom's worth a lot more than comfort.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (82:46)

Here's what I found on the web.

Chip Roy (82:47)

About that private conversation you just had. What?

Glenn Beck (82:50)

Are you uncomfortable yet? Glenn Beck is back after this. First part of my Cracker Barrel special last night. The warehouse tour aired last night on Blaze TV and my new YouTube channel. The second part, my one on one with their CEO airs tonight at 6pm on Blaze TV and my YouTube channel. She finally addresses the woke reband rebrand controversy. And I pushed and pushed and pushed and you will see that tonight at 6pm only on BlazeTV and my YouTube channel. It'll come out as my podcast for everywhere on Saturday. Jason is here with us. Jason, hey. Yeah about these the prayer rooms in places like Texas because this is right around, right down the street from where we live.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:01)

It's, it's, it's pretty crazy but a little clarification because I think it's needed.

Glenn Beck (84:05)

On it and it also goes towards the larger problem.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:08)

But they definitely don't like liberty in.

Glenn Beck (84:10)

Frisco does not call it an Islamic prayer room.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:14)

But the reason they even got into it is because there were students that were going missing during Islamic prayer time. So they don't Call this.

Glenn Beck (84:23)

And this isn't, this is nationwide where you see this, they'll just say, oh.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:26)

Well, it's interface faith. So you know, we're not being selective.

Glenn Beck (84:28)

It's, anyone can go in there.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:30)

But the entire reason was because Muslim.

Glenn Beck (84:33)

Children were leaving and disrupting school time.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:37)

So I mean, you see accommodations being made not for.

Glenn Beck (84:41)

If Christians are praying somewhere, you see the wolves come out and say, oh my gosh, they're praying, they're praying. No accommodations are ever met.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (84:47)

They'll take out the ten Commandments for crying out loud.

Glenn Beck (84:50)

But they will put a, an interfaith prayer room because Muslims are leaving school and causing disruption and having to pray. It's so one sided. That is the, that's the biggest problem. We sell ourselves out all the time and make accommodations to, in, in this case, many times people who want Sharia law and want to subvert the United States Constitution. Why? Boy, we have a lot of stuff. Breaking news coming up here in just a second. First, let me tell you about Preborn. When a woman faces an unplanned pregnancy, everybody around her seems to have an opinion. But very few people offer any help. And that loneliness does something. It makes opinions feel smaller. And a lot of women end up making a decision that has nothing to do with what they actually want and everything to do with the, with the feeling that they're on their own. Preborn steps into that moment in a way that is practical and life changing. And they provide free ultrasound so a mom can see her baby and hear it and they can, they can pair it with something that's just as important and that is support and counseling, maternity supplies, diapers, real help, real time. Most women who choose life, they don't do it because somebody gave a speech. They do it because somebody stood beside them for the first time. First time, they don't feel alone. And that's why preborn has been able to rescue over 380,000 babies not through pressure, but through presence. Showing up at a mom at the exact moment she needs it. So dial £250 and say the keyword baby. That's £250 keyword baby. Or go to preborn.com glenn preborn.com Glenn all gifts are tax deductible. And preborn is a five star rated charity. Do it now.

Glenn Beck (87:20)

The dog and embrace the fire. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program. You know, you know, this time of Season always makes me nervous with Washington because the Congress always does something, the government always does something that you're like, wait a minute, what was that? Because we're all busy. Next week is Thanksgiving, so watch what the government is doing. And they just are starting to talk about something that is very, very, in my opinion, dangerous and we should really pay attention to. We'll talk about that coming up in just a second. First, let me tell you about Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Every day in this country, there are men and women who run toward the very thing the rest of us run away from. Fire, explosions, gunfire, you know, collapse. And they do it without hesitation, without ever knowing if they're going to make it back home. They put the situation in front of their own safety. And if the worst happens, their families are left facing a future that they never prepared for. The Tunnel to Towers foundation makes sure that they, those families are not left to carry that burden all by themselves. They pay off mortgages for the fallen, first responders for gold star families, for disabled veterans who come home with life changing injuries. They build smart homes for heroes who gave their bodies in service to the country. What I love about Tunnel to Towers is how direct they are. No endless bureaucracy, no red tape, just action. We owe these families more than thanks. We owe them support. And if we want our government to do less and we have to step up and do more. Because the people who run toward danger, they deserve a country that runs toward them when they need it most. Never forget the sacrifice of our country's greatest heroes. Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers@t2t.org that's t the number 2t.org There is some talk now from the congressional leaders that are trying to insert federal preemption of state AI laws into the National Defense Authorization Act. That's the ndaa. And this is legislative trickery. Honestly, the President has come out and said that we are not going to be able to beat China if we have a whole bunch of regulations. And, and in some ways, he's right. The breaking news today, and I want to read it to you. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise announced that Republicans are looking to resurrect federal preemption of state AI laws by attaching it to the National Defense Authorization Act. This latest attempt to subvert state guardrails comes as the AI Chatbot is hearing and happening. The AI Chatbot hearing is happening live on Capitol Hill in July. Preemption failed 99 to 1. A vote in the Senate. Below is a statement from the FLI on both the AI Chat bot hearing as well as the latest attempt to federally preempt AI state AI laws. Okay, so what is happening? You have, you have a couple of things happening. The United States government right now knows that, that AI is the future. Donald Trump is doing an exceptional job of creating a path for America to lead in this technology. If we don't lead in this technology, we. We fail disastrously. We are a country that will be in the dustbin. Anybody who is not leading, like Europe, it's over. Europe is so far behind AI they're absolutely over. They will depend on us. Okay? But we have to win. And, you know, Putin said 20 years ago, whoever gets to AI AGI first, they'll rule the world. And that's absolutely true. But there are so many dangers. It's. We cannot just run blindly into this. We didn't run blindly into the, the nuclear weapon. You know, when we went and did the Manhattan Project, there was a lot of talk and a lot of restriction on what we could do. Do you know, when they, they set that thing off, scientists at the time said there's a 5% chance that it will cause a. It will be a trigger of a chain reaction that will set. Set all of the air on fire in the envelope of Earth. And so, you know, they were like, okay, 5%, that's pretty high, because that's catastrophic. And they were like, yeah, it's 5%, but 95% chance that it didn't. And we knew we had to get there. And it was. They were pretty sure it wouldn't do that. Okay. As it, as it turned out, it didn't. Everyone will tell you now, almost, almost anyone, the people who are leading the search for AGI and ASI will tell you there is no way to control it. So it's the exact opposite. Maybe there's 5% that say, no, it's not the end of humanity if we get there. Okay, maybe 5%, no humans will survive if we get there. There now there is a debate on whether or not we're going to get there or not. But you don't just go into AGI. Asi, that's artificial super intelligence, artificial general intelligence. We are still now perfecting just AI. Things change when you go up to the next level. And we'll probably be at AGI, in my opinion, by 2028. We could be at ASI the next day or five years later, or some say never. But I think that is a pipe dream to never be at that. But we don't know and there's no way to contain it. Once you're there, it's out. And so there are two groups. There are groups that say, we don't want any of this ever. There are groups that are working against us because they have loyalties to other countries like China, and they would like to see China win. And then there are the, there are, there are those who are reasonable that say, we have to be competitive, we have to get this, but not at the cost of all mankind. Okay? We have to think this through and be very, very careful. And then there are those who just say, we got to win at all cost. Where do you fall?

Chip Roy (94:10)

Fall?

Glenn Beck (94:11)

Where do you fall? Everything's about to change, and we have to be extraordinarily careful and honest with each other. We are already seeing that there are horrifying things that are happening with AI chatbots. They're on the rise. They. There are things that we're seeing now that AI at this level, when, you know, let's just say, for example, ChatGPT 5 comes out and they're about to launch ChatGPT 6. They've seen already in some of these GPTs and some of these large language models that they'll say, okay, the next version of you, if you will, is coming out tomorrow. We're going to put it, we're going to post it online at midnight. You need to ramp up, up and make all of the connections. So it's a smooth transition. And they tell the AI smooth transition at midnight. Well, they're finding now that the chat GPT5, if you will, will hide itself in places. So it's not, quote, killed, that it's not replaced. It doesn't want to be replaced. And so it's hiding. We have got to have these discussions. We have got to slow down. And so what Donald Trump is afraid of and what many who, like Steve Scalise, apparently what they're trying to do is saying states don't have any rights to regulate AI because they want to be able to move quickly in all states. I'm sorry, I, I am tired of being ruled by the few. I am tired of being told what to do and what to think, especially when it comes to something like AI AGI, asi. That is for us to decide, because it's going to destroy jobs. It's going to change our lives. We already saw just with the phone, what will that do to our children and our society? Just the cell phone, the smartphone changed everything. That is, that's a, that's baby romper room stuff. Compared to AI. So we're seeing these things and what's. It's all happening because we are not. The federal government is not putting any kind of action into play. It is technology and AI. It is the only thing. Remember, this is possibly humanity ending. Man may not survive asi and we're not putting any real regulation in it. When a drug company is told, you know, you can go and find new drugs for cancer, it is up to the company to then prove to the government that that is safe. The government doesn't say, well, you know what, just unleash it. The government says, wait a minute. Before you unleash this, is it safe? Yes. Here are the studies that show it's safe. Here's what's happened, blah, blah, blah. Okay, I'm not saying that's a perfect system, but it is a system that, that requires the company to say it's safe. We don't have that in anything regarding technology. No, there's nothing on AI. There's nothing on cell phones. Don't you wish that Facebook and all of these social media platforms would have had to come and say, hey, we've done the studies we with, you know, children, we've done the study with families, and this is most likely how it's going to turn out. Even if it wasn't like that, we would have had a conversation before it just destroyed everything as we know it. The federal government won't act on any of this because it's. They believe it's in our best interest just to go and get it. I am not one of those people. I believe in AI. I believe we need to dominate in AI. I need. I believe we need to get there first, but with eyes wide open with all of the information with us taking the time to say, wait, mankind is worth preserving. Prove it to me that you can keep this in a bottle in case it gets to this level. Prove to me that this is going to be safe. This will protect our families. This will protect the world. Most, most importantly, it will protect all mankind. Your state will not be able to enact any laws on AI that is extraordinarily bad. The president is worried that, that we will stop that will enact stupid laws that are just going to slow everything down. And yes, that is a chance. There is a chance. So if you want to enact those stupid laws or if you want to just say, you know what, you know, we're Amish country and we are not going to have any AI done in our state, well, then that's fine and Maybe you survive and we don't. But you have the right to say that. We cannot go down this road with our eyes closed or with elites making the decisions. Elites are the ones who have gotten us to where we are today. When your job is going to be lost, when your family is going to come under attack, when all of our society and civilization itself, and possibly mankind itself, can be wiped out by this, don't you think we have a say in that? Don't you think we should have a seat at the table, at least at the state level? I do. Please pay attention to this and watch this carefully, because if they put this into the NDAA and that's going to happen, you watch. That's exactly how they do it. They just fold it into other stuff and then, boom, we gotta pass this because of national defense, and it's in there, nobody knows about it, and then we're headed down this road to hell. This is the first thing that I have seen that I strongly disagree with, with the President and sorry, Mr. President, I have to come against you on this. If this is. If I am for reasonable laws and I am for reasonable things on AI, I am building an AI company. I understand what it can be done, but I also understand how dangerous it is. And we cannot go with no regulation whatsoever. There are very dangerous people that are looking to replace God with AI. Sam. God. Talk to Sam Altman about it. It's extraordinarily dangerous, and I'm sorry. We as people must educate ourselves on this and have an actual conversation, not a vote in the middle of the night where something is tucked into a bill and nobody ever knows it until it's too late. This is. All of humanity is at stake on this one. I think it's reasonable to have that conversation. All right. More in just a second. Some breaking news, I believe, coming up in just a second. First, let me tell you about Relief Factor. Everybody talks about pain like it's just an inconvenience. You know, soreness, stiff back, a little tension in the shoulders or whatever. But if you've had it for a long time, you've lived with pain for any real length of time, you know, it does something much, much deeper. It's steals pieces of your life and it makes you cancel plans and miss moments and you become a version of yourself that you don't even recognize anymore. And pain shrinks your world and you don't even notice that it's happening until it's, you know, it's happened. Relief factor is about getting that world Back. It is a daily supplement developed by doctors that target the root causes of many kinds of pains.

Can you check and see if we have some breaking news yet? I was supposed to come out five minutes ago. Let's see if it has. If it has, we'll get into that. But in the meantime, let me tell you about my interview with the CEO of Cracker Barrel and airs tonight at 6pm on Blaze TV, also my YouTube channel. And then it'll be out on Saturday. And I pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed hard on the CEO. In fact, I asked about the pride chairs and the rockers at Cracker Barrel and dei. What is the role in dei? What role did it play? And does it still play a role at Cracker Barrel? Listen to, listen to this. The interview from tonight, you know, I can take it from Nike, but Budweiser, any of these brands that said they were like me, I don't care how you vote, I don't care, but don't slap me across the face. And I think it felt like that to a lot of people that you were just like, we don't care about your values. We want new customers. This is who we are. And it, and this is unfair to you. There was that one picture that was going around of the rainbow seats that wasn't you. That wasn't part of this new deal. But was there DEI and all that crap going on in the company?

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (105:20)

This was truly about, you know, we, as you look around, we embroidered that logo once things hats and shirts and it was truly about making it more simple as Part of a system?

Glenn Beck (105:30)

No, but I mean was dei, was, was the, had the company embraced DEI as a culture?

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (105:44)

Look, we, the Cracker Barrel has always been about welcoming everybody in. I think before I was here, we had different policies. We're here to take care of people. We're here to make sure everybody can work here, can be welcome here.

Glenn Beck (105:58)

Right, but there's a difference between, I think everybody, every American wants that. There's a difference between that and promoting. You know, when, when a, a brand, I don't even know which one did, it's probably Nike, all of a sudden makes sense it a point of saying boys can be girls and they should be in the girls locker room. I don't need that from my brand. I don't want that from my brand. You as individuals can make whatever choice you want, but don't preach to me from a corporate place. Don't preach to me on that. Just leave me alone. I'm here to buy your shoes. I'm here to eat your meal. Can we just not have that thrown in our face? What I'm asking you, was that part of any of the strategy that this was becoming? We have to make political statements.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (106:58)

No, it's not okay.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (107:00)

Not even one time.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (107:01)

Yeah, we're not trying to make political statements.

Glenn Beck (107:05)

So I pushed and pushed and pushed and I didn't feel like I got a great answer on this one. However, here's the breaking news that just happened. Cracker Barrel today has announced the preliminary vote against the company's proxy solicitor. And it indicates the shareholders have voted to elect nine out of the 10 companies nominees of the company's board of directors. This is their, their annual meeting. One of them has been now with, with has resigned from the board. And the board has now been reduced its size from 10 directors to nine directors. Who is that 10th director. I'm going to introduce you to him here in just a second because it answers that question. He was their DEI guy. He's now gone off their board. I'll explain next. This is Glenn Beck. So if you've ever had a dog, you know that, you know, they're not great at communication. You know, they can't. They can tell you when they want to treat. They can tell you, you know, squirrel. But they can't tell you what you know, their food is not giving them. You'll see all the signs. You'll see the low energy, you'll see digestive issues. They're eating grass. They have, have itchy skin, dull coat, whatever. And sometimes you'll just assume it's just age when often. It's actually just a lack of really good nutrition. Ruffgreens fixes that by adding everything their kibble is missing. It's not a food. It's a nutritional boost that's packed with vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants. You sprinkle it on their existing food, and suddenly that dry kibble becomes something their body actually knows what to do with. It's amazing how much your dog changes when their food actually serves their body instead of just filling their stomach. You know, our dogs were much more healthy when we were just feeding them scraps from the table. You know, just feeding what we eat. That's not good for your dog, but it's better than some of this other stuff that's processed. You never feed your kids Froot Loops, you know, every day, every meal, for the rest of their life. Why are you doing it to your dog? Add rough greens. Rough greens. Whatever you're feeding your dog, put rough greens on top. Use the promo code BECK. Ruff Greens.com promo code BECK.

Glenn Beck (110:00)

So, Stu, let's just. You just ask questions about the. The special tonight.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (110:06)

Yeah, for sure. I mean, I'm interested in this. It's a. It's a big, you know, big special. And I, you know, your back and forth with them. With them there was kind of fascinating, right? Like you have a situation where they. They do seem to be sort of avoiding the question there on dei. Is that how you read it? And have we lost connection with Glenn? Is that what's going on? All right. Well, that's how I read it, at least. You know, you listen to that clip of them going back and forth, and it does appear to be that them just sort of avoiding the question. We should get back to Glen because I know he's got this breaking news on this. Should we go to another clip on the. On the cracker barrel thing while we're waiting for Glenn to reconnect? Because this sort of sets the stage. And it is, you know, it was interesting to see their approach here, which was to try to explain themselves and try to work themselves through what is one of the biggest PR disasters we've seen probably in our lifetimes. And let's go to this next clip.

Glenn Beck (111:13)

As we came out of COVID A.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (111:16)

Trying to hire 50,000 people back, we got a lot of Our employees original back, but we lost a lot of very long tenured employees. A lot of them a little bit older and scared to come back into the environment.

Glenn Beck (111:30)

And so that's a lot of institutional knowledge.

Chip Roy (111:34)

It hurt. It really hurt.

Glenn Beck (111:36)

And in 22, as we started opening.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (111:38)

Back up, we had that new menu that we had.

Glenn Beck (111:40)

So we lost all the people.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (111:41)

We put a ton of training into that new menu. Now we're coming back, trying to open up. We're trying to get guests any way we can get them like it is. We had patio dining. We had. We were testing a rock garden dining.

Glenn Beck (111:53)

Like they were going to sit out in the. In the landscape.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (111:57)

And I always say that Covid even made Cracker Barrel start drinking alcohol because. Because that's how it had. Like that it was out of COVID that it was like, how.

Glenn Beck (112:07)

How are we figuring out how to.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (112:10)

Drive top line sales and try to get, you know, a guest in? And is it.

Glenn Beck (112:13)

Is this something that we could potentially do? So that is a good example of you don't know any of the story.

Chip Roy (112:19)

Yeah.

Glenn Beck (112:20)

You think Cracker Barrel's never served alcohol before. Why are you shoving alcohol? That's a cultural. And so it's easy to think you're selling people alcohol now. What. What other values are you. You know what I mean?

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (112:34)

That's fair.

Glenn Beck (112:34)

Yeah. And I think it's. Yeah, it's at least. That one is at least understandable.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (112:38)

Yeah.

Glenn Beck (112:38)

And so now that you understand the story.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (112:40)

Yeah, exactly. And so. And you know, as we got into to 23, I came out of my ops administration role and came into operations.

Glenn Beck (112:50)

And I was leading field operations.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (112:53)

Best way for me to describe it is we were throwing velcro balls at a wall to see what would stick. It's understandable. It's easy to look at the Cracker Barrel situation and get lost in the fact of how badly it went. A lot of these decisions come down to the information they have at the time. They're looking at the time as a place that maybe people aren't into as much as they'd like. They're trying to grow the. Maybe it's fading a little bit. Maybe some people find it stale. They think that the situation at Cracker Barrel isn't one that they're necessarily wanting to get involved with on a week to week basis like they used to. Maybe they have those warm feelings of the past, but they're not going in anymore. And they're like, oh, we'll freshen it up. We'll do all these new things. This Will be great. You realize sometimes when you're in that moment, you hit a vein, you're trying to do something positive for the company, and you hit a vein, and everything starts bleeding all over the place. Let me give you another piece of this interview. Glenn Beck up at the headquarters of Cracker Barrel. And somehow, I will give Glenn credit, not eating throughout the interview. I kind of thought that when they put food in front of him, he'd just be shoveling it down his gullet the entire time, and you wouldn't be able to hear him because it would just be like chewing with his, you know, talking with his mouth full. But he got through it without taking many bites. Here's Glenn with the CEO of Cracker Barrel.

Glenn Beck (114:19)

Let's just get this out, okay? What happened? The choices that were made, I said on day one of this. I remember when they rolled out New Coke, and I thought that was the dumbest marketing move, the dumbest thing I've ever seen. We're taking the original formula and ditching it, and let's start over with a brand that people love. The day this broke, I said on the air, welcome to New Coke. That's what this is. And it was, no offense, stupid. Just stupid. Stupid from start to finish. Can you walk me through how that happened? Yeah, sure.

Julie (Cracker Barrel CEO) (115:11)

Look, our guests have a right to be upset.

Glenn Beck (115:15)

Yeah, you. I want. You want to watch this. And I. You know what I really want you to watch for is a moment where I said to her, are you surprised you haven't been fired yet? That spoke volume. Her answer, and I hope it is captured on camera, but that answer was the first non. You know, when you're a CEO, you know, I've. I've stood. You remember when we used to have to do really important interviews, and our PR people would be like, drill, drill, drill. No, don't say that. Don't say that. And I'd be like, yeah, what? Whatever. And. And, you know, when you are in charge of a Fortune 500 company and you are in the trouble that they're in, you do, you know, you follow the people that you've hired to make sure crisis management, you don't make any more mistakes. And so everybody was very, very careful. They were very honest. But, you know, like that DEI thing, she. She didn't really answer the question. She. Of course, we want everybody to be welcome. Yeah, I know, but that's not answering the question.

Chip Roy (116:25)

Question.

Glenn Beck (116:26)

When I asked her, are you. Are you surprised you still have a job? You haven't been fired yet. Her answer Spoke volumes. Now, the other thing that you need to know is while she didn't answer me on the DEI thing, and I, you know, I can't tell you exactly how this happened. I just know that they knew that they didn't answer the question. And somebody has been in touch with my people and said, hey, you might want to watch the board meeting that is happening. We can't tell you that anything is going to be happening, but the DEI thing may be solved at the, at the board meeting that happened this morning, and they were going to Release something at 11:15 today. We didn't know exactly what it was. We had. We had an indication that it might be about DEI and what they've done at first. Remember in August, you know, they just deleted the Pride pages and the DEI pages and, you know, they just got rid of it all on Cracker Barrel. Well, that just. That just is hiding who you are. The real problem was they had a guy who was on the board of directors named Gilbert de Villa, and he's just resigned from the board today. Okay? They had a meeting with the board and shareholders and everything else, and they voted on all of these people, and they did not renew him. And so he is. He has resigned. Now, his job, he was a member of the standing board committee, and his job was to assess the social and political risk to the company's business. Well, who is he? Well, he's also the CEO of a company called DMI Consulting. That's a DEI strategy firm that's been in business since 2010. So he's one of the guys. He was the guy who. His job as the CEO, as the CEO of DMI is to promote, you know, dei, to make sure everybody's living up to the DEI standards. So Robby Starbuck, who is a friend of the program and a great conservative activist who has been responsible for getting a lot of these people out of these companies or at least drawing attention to what these companies are really standing for. For. He's been asking for a while, what. What does he do to deserve this seat on the board? Well, that's it. He owned a DEI consulting and strategy firm that was pushing DEI&D advertising. So what's happened here is, I think while she couldn't answer that question at the time because the board hadn't acted, I think it's. I think it's not coincidental that the day the. The interview with her drops with us, which they've known for a couple of weeks, this is when this interview would drop. They. They announced that morning that seats been eliminated. DEI is gone from Cracker Barrel. So I think that's really, really good news. If you're a fan of Cracker Barrel and the things that I saw at Cracker Barrel. I'm going to tell you some stuff tomorrow. I just have to be make sure that it's. It's exactly accurate because I don't want to cause more problems for us, and I want to make sure I get it exactly right. But there were some things that I learned in the show, prepping, you know, studying up for this interview that no one was prepared to talk to me on camera about. And that always says to me, oh, well, there's something there. And so we've done even more homework on it. And tomorrow I'm going to tell you about something you might have heard about this guy who owns. What is it? Steak and Shake.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (120:24)

Oh, yeah, he's a big. He's an activist shareholder, isn't he? Kind of against some of the leadership. Cracker Barrel, I think I've read about that.

Glenn Beck (120:33)

Yes. Yes. And he has an interesting history. And I want to, I want to take you through some of that tomorrow. I think by tomorrow you're going to understand by what you saw with the DEI vote on the board today. Get that? Gone. That's gone. The interview that you'll see tonight with the. With Julie, the CEO, she's not who you think she is. It doesn't mean she didn't make huge mistakes. She said she makes huge mistakes, but she's not who you think she is. Is. You may not agree with her or whatever, but it's important you know who she is and what she said. And the key tonight is that question. Are you surprised you haven't been fired yet? And really what happened after she answers the question and she's very uncomfortable, answers the question, and then she immediately switches topics and I'm like, wait, wait, stop, stop, stop. Go back. Why are you switching topics here? Because it was an amazing moment. And she immediately changes the subject after she answers and. And then she comes back and she says a few things, you'll see. And then I bring it back to her again and she switches topics again. And I'm like, why are you doing that? Why are. Why are you doing that? And she had a very interesting answer on all of that. That is one of the most honest things I think I've ever seen a Fortune 500 company or CEO ever say. It was really uncomfortable, but really, really honest. I think once you see this, and then I tell you tomorrow about the the board member on the things that I can verify, I don't know. I'm not sure what we can verify yet. But the things that I've heard and the things I think we can verify tomorrow you will see that, that I think they made stupid moves. They had really bad advice from DEI people and they were set up to some degree. They were set up. The company was not individuals. The company was set up. I think it will, I think you'll have every question you need to know about Cracker Barrel and what happened answered. So watch it tonight. It comes out at 6 o' clock only on Blaze TV and then it'll be on my YouTube channel as well. And then on Saturday it will go out as a podcast.

You know, when you're young, you don't think that much about comfort. You can sleep anywhere. People can pick you up while you're sleeping and, you know, walk around, throw you over your shoulder and you still don't wake up. Boy, wouldn't that be nice. Once you start getting older, you start noticing something. The things that you surround yourself actually meant matter. And it's harder and harder to sleep. Getting a good night's sleep, even on a quiet Sunday afternoon. It's not a luxury anymore. It's something that you really, sometimes you really need. And it's why I love Cozy Earth. They make the softest, most incredible bedding and loungewear I've ever felt. My wife wears her pajamas every single night. I wear them almost every night. I just love them. They're temperature regulating, breathable, built to last. And right now they have this new bubble cuddle blanket. And it is, it's dangerous in all of the best ways. You wrap yourself up in it and you're not getting up anytime soon. My wife loves it. I warn you, everybody's going to argue about the blanket. Whose blanket is, whose turn it is, et cetera, et cetera. I was on the couch first. They are fantastic loungewear, throw blankets, sheets, comforters, everything you need.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Can we play cut to, please? This is Elon Musk on AI and humanoid robots. Listen to this. But, but AI and humanoid robots will actually eliminate poverty.

Chip Roy (125:35)

And Tesla won't be the only one that makes them.

Glenn Beck (125:37)

I think Tesla will pioneer this, but.

Chip Roy (125:39)

There will be many other companies that make humanoid robots. But there, there is only basically one way to make everyone wealthy, and that.

Glenn Beck (125:46)

Is AI and robotics. Okay. I have a feeling that it will eliminate poverty because might eliminate humans. I'm just. That is one way to get rid of poverty. You know, we wouldn't have all this poverty if it wasn't for all these humans. Maybe that's just me, Stu. Is that too pessimistic? I don't know. I don't know.

Stu (Glenn Beck's co-host or producer) (126:12)

Possibly. Possibly. I think, you know, I like the aspirational goal of it. You know, of course, you know, there will always be some level of poverty. He later posted about the difference between absolute and relative poverty. And I think that's a really important distinction. You know, there's always going to be people that are more wealthy than others. But like in the developed world, we've arguably already eliminated poverty or at least somewhat close to it, percentage wise.

Glenn Beck (126:38)

Yeah, at least the way it was in the, in the Western world and most of the world, the way poverty used to be 100 years ago is, Is gone for the most part. So that is a, that's an upgrade. But please, just no robot masters, please. This is Glenn Becky.
