Podcast Summary: The REAL Reason Your Electric Bill Is SKYROCKETING

The Glenn Beck Program
Date: October 28, 2025
Guests: Rep. Marlin Stutzman & Carol Roth

Overview

In this episode, Glenn Beck dives into the shocking rise of electric bills across the United States. Bringing together economic, political, and technological perspectives, the episode explores how the surging demand for electricity from AI server farms is colliding with green energy policies and infrastructure limits—forcing Americans to choose between contradictory visions for the future. With guests Carol Roth and Rep. Marlin Stutzman, the conversation expands to the broader consequences: everything from global power realignment to food imports, government shutdowns, and religious freedom abroad.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Real Reason Behind the Skyrocketing Electric Bills

Data Center Demand: Glenn highlights how the explosive growth of server farms (especially for AI, crypto, and cloud computing) is the primary, underreported driver for higher electricity bills.
- “Each one of these data centers, which is feeding artificial intelligence, crypto, cloud computing, they consume as much power as 50 homes all the time.” (25:42)
Utility Strain: States like Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Virginia are experiencing grid strains, leading to warnings of blackouts with any excess demand.
Global Examples: Countries like Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Singapore have begun restricting further server farm construction. Beijing already rations power to keep data hubs running.

2. Power, AI, and the Coming Great Realignment

Shifting Climate Narratives: Bill Gates’ sudden softening on the urgency of climate change is tied to tech sector energy demands.
- “Bill Gates has just come out and said… global warming is not as bad as we thought it was. It’s so laughable because it is so transparent." (25:41)
AI Job Losses: Amazon’s layoff of 30,000 workers due to automation and AI is only the beginning—a precursor to further economic upheaval.
Energy Dilemma: If you want green energy, you must accept no AI/server farms; if you want AI and digital infrastructure, you must build more (especially nuclear) power plants.
- "These two realities cannot coexist… The climate cult is going to run headlong into artificial intelligence. And when that happens, lights go out in your house.” (34:18)

3. Chalkboard Breakdown: The False Choice Ahead (12:18–18:00)

Glenn introduces a mental “chalkboard” with two emerging sides—not ‘good’ vs. ‘bad’ but divergent and contradictory value sets:
- Side 1 (Growth/Tech/Globalism):
  - Drill, baby, drill
  - AI/tech-driven, big business
  - Digital ID, globalist, anti-Marxist
  - Growth/abundance/energy
- Side 2 (Local/Anti-Tech/Marxism):
  - Global warming, degrowth
  - Pro-workers, anti-AI, anti-capitalist
  - Real food, local/maha, free (but not always fair) trade
  - 15-minute cities, local farmers market, digital skepticism
Warning: Both sides will contain facets people find appealing; the real threat is the U.S. Constitution and individual rights being left off the table.
- “Which way do you go? There is a third way and it’s the US Constitution. That’s not on the board because right now, that’s not popular.” (18:30)

4. Truth, Conspiracies, and AI Distortion (46:31–66:42)

Glenn discusses the proliferation of conspiracy theories, “deepfakes,” and AI-generated misinformation (i.e., Google’s AI fabricating criminal histories), warning listeners to be vigilant.
Loss of institutional trust and inability to distinguish fact from fiction is becoming the “real pandemic.”
- “If you no longer believe in anything, you will believe everything. That’s what’s happening.” (53:45)
- “You are going to see deep fakes and you’re not going to know what to believe… The truth has become fragile.” (59:45)
Advice: Know what you are “for,” anchor yourself to core values, and do not share speculative or unverified “if this is true...” content.

5. Interview with Carol Roth: Argentina, China, and Trade Policy (87:30–106:00)

U.S.-Argentina Currency Swap: The U.S. recently supported Argentina’s economy (under libertarian President Milei) via a currency swap using the Treasury’s Exchange Stabilization Fund, aiming to stave off Chinese (Belt & Road) influence.
- “We gave the Argentinian Central Bank dollars… meant to support the peso and help to stabilize its currency… what is unusual is that it wasn’t done with the Fed, but through the Treasury.” (89:37)
Beef Imports: Trump’s green light to Argentinian beef imports is part of a bigger security chessboard, though it hurts domestic ranchers.
Broader Economic Trends: Debate over tariffs, the relatively small share of imports in the US economy, and tricky calculations in inflation numbers.
Shutdown Effects: SNAP benefits, air traffic delays, and looming pressure on Congress—illuminating the unsustainable growth of government dependency programs, especially among immigrants.

6. Interview with Rep. Marlin Stutzman: Redistricting and Global Religious Freedom (108:34–122:01)

Religious Persecution in Nigeria: Stutzman and Sen. Cruz introduce a bill to sanction Nigerian officials complicit in violence against Christians and to designate the country as of “particular concern.”
- “Since 2009, Boko Haram has killed 125,000 Christians… hundreds of churches each month.” (109:11)
U.S. Redistricting: Indiana considers redrawing its lines to counterbalance Democrat-leaning sanctuary states that gain House seats by counting non-citizens.
- "You have states like California, Illinois, [that] count the illegals… so they probably have like five or six extra districts that they shouldn’t even have.” (115:05)
Shutdown & SNAP: The Democrats see shutdown pain as a “leverage” tactic, risking their own base’s well-being for negotiations on healthcare for illegals.
- "They’re willing to make their own constituents hurt… so they can negotiate in DC.” (117:13)
Indiana Server Farms: Major facilities (e.g., Google) will strain the grid unless required to build their own nuclear power sources.

Welcome to the program. Let me tell you about Chirp. I don't know when it happened. One day, you know, I could sprint up the stairs like I was auditioning for Rocky. And the next day, you know, I tie my shoe or I pick up a pencil and I'm like, God, gotta go to the hospital now. I mean, what the hell is that?

Stu (0:15)

It's real. It's real.

Glenn Beck (0:16)

It is real. Okay, if you tried the heat pack, the cold pack, I mean, right here, gold pack, you know, Honey, could you just walk on my back? I miss my kids being small enough just to walk on my back, honestly. You know, your blood, your spine can click back together. This where the Chirp wheel can help. Put simply, it unwinds your back, you set it on the floor, you roll on it, and suddenly your spine makes that pop, pop, pop sound that, you know, sounds like angels getting their wings. Quite honestly, it's a tune up for your skeleton. And it works on the upper back, lower back, shoulders, everything. Chirp can make you feel young again, but it makes your back feel so much better than it was. Go to gocherp.com back. Use the promo code beck at checkout. Get 10% off site.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. You know, sometimes it's weird. Sometimes, you know, something will happen and it will all just start to click in your head. Well, I don't know exactly what happened today. But I've been dancing around some things for a while, and I think I see the future. I think some things have just happened in the news today that when I read them, it just went click, click, click, click, click. And it's like the tumbler just landed and the vault can open, and I can see what we're going to face, and it's going to be a very confusing future, and we need to know it now. You're going to be. I'm telling you, after this first hour, you are going to be so far ahead of all of your friends on being able to explain what's going on in the world and what's coming next. It's. It's worth the price of admission, which, by the way, if you're listening on radio, is free. So stop bellyaching. We begin here in just a second. Stand by. First, let me tell you about our sponsor. This half hour is Jace Medical. Every home has that one drawer, the one with the flashlight and the spare batteries, the tape, the screwdriver. You know, maybe that stray pack of birthday candles from five years ago. It's not organized. You know, it's not really impressive. But when you need something, that's where you go because that's where you put all the things that are just in case. You know what I mean? And that's exactly what the Jace case is, minus the mess. It is the medical version of that just in case drawer. Real doctor prescribed antibiotics for those moments when the problem shows up before help does. A bad infection, an accident away from town, a kid getting sick in the middle of the night. This isn't about turning your house into a hospital. It's about acknowledging that life doesn't always wait for business hours, weather conditions, doctor appointments. Perfect timing. Sometimes things go wrong when you're not ready. And having a Jace case on the shelf means you've already thought ahead. Because taking care of your family isn't dramatic. It's not a speech. It's a habit. It's a choice you make long before the moment arrives. When you order your Jace case today, use the promo code BECK. That's B, C, K. Go to Jace.com for a discount at Jace.com order with the promo code Beck and save. All right, I want to talk to you about a story that I saw today. Bill Gates says climate change will not lead to humanity's demise. Pardon me. Wait, hold on. Hold on. Just a second. Hold on. Let me just. I just. Let me just go back into the records here and see. Let's see what has he said? 2015. Climate change is a terrible problem, absolutely needs to be solved, deserves to be a huge priority. It is the poorer people in tropical zones who will get hit by climate change, as well as some ecosystems nobody wants to see disappear. The threat of climate change is dire. He said that just two years ago. It'll be the greatest challenge the world has ever faced. We must take it on. We must reach net zero emissions by 2050 to avoid a climate disaster. 2021, to avoid climate disaster, we need to eliminate emissions from the ways we create electricity, grow food, make things move around, blah, blah, blah. No one will be hurt more. From climate change to the world's poorest people, it's already worse than most models predicted. To prevent climate change scenarios, we need breakthroughs in key areas. He's now put billions of dollars behind the climate change movement. Now he says, not so bad, not so bad, not so bad. What the hell just happened? Okay, what just happened? On a completely unrelated note, let me give you another story today. Amazon, the first company to say $30 an hour, you come on in and work at our warehouse and it's $30 an hour. 30 is an interesting number because they just Yesterday laid off 30,000 people. Why? Because they're going, AI okay, it's all going to be automated. Everything. This is the first, this, this warning. This is the first, what do you call that? Aftershocks. When you get the, get the rumbles before the big earthquake, you know, it's like a pre shock. It's, you know, the, just the, the quick, quiet, very low on the Richter scale rumble and you're like, what, what was that? What was that? That's an earthquake coming. Things starting to shift just a little bit. Not the big one yet. Just a little bit. Just a little shift.

Glenn Beck (7:33)

Yes, birth pangs. Yeah, it's birth pangs of the things yet to come. You're just having that first birth pang. 30,000 people laid off now, remember? Gosh, think of the money they're saving because they were paying everybody $30 an hour because they were such a great company. They were just. They care about people until they could replace all the people. Now why am I bringing that story up next to the Bill Gates story about climate change? What do those stories have? What do they have in common at all? Power. And I don't mean just political or economic power. Absolutely. That goes without saying. I mean, energy. The world is starving for energy. I've got a story for you next hour, and I'm going to show you exactly where you have to be, whether you're for climate change, you know, you're. I w. We got to go all green or we got to go all in on, you know, server farms. One way or another, I will tell you what you have to do, and it is imperative that you do it next hour. But here's what snapped together today. We have been seeing this movement, and I know that the world is about to change, and our system doesn't work. The two parties don't work. It doesn't cover everything. We have been fighting over communism or fascism. Both of them are wrong, okay? They don't work. And they've been sold exactly the same way over and over, except global warming. Global warming has been the one thing that has not been out and out Marxist until it had to be. And then you're like, okay, yeah, all right, we want people to die. We want people to die because it'll save the Earth. So we're absolutely, you know, anti growth. Okay? Pretty easy to see what side you're on, at least for me. Pretty easy to see what side you're on. I am for growth. I am for technology. I am for an end to this global warming nonsense. Except I am also pro Earth. I think we have a. We have a responsibility to make sure we do things that are right for the Earth. I am absolutely pro pharmaceuticals until I'm not pro pharmaceuticals because I think the pharmaceutical companies have gotten out of control. I am absolutely for doing everything we can with our farmers to be able to have them grow and grow food to feed the world until we start screwing with the food so much it's not really even meat anymore, and we don't really know where it's from. So am I for Big Ag or against Big Ag? Because I like parts of it I don't like. Am I. Am I for the pharmaceutical companies or against the pharmaceutical companies? Because I like the pharmaceutical companies Until I don't like the pharmaceutical companies. Am I. Am I for the planet or against the planet? I like AI, but I'm also terrified of AI Am I for AI or against AI? I am for jobs. I am for people. So how can you be four people if you are four AI? Do you see how none of this works? You see how you are? You are literally we are already dividing ourselves into. We're being pulled apart. We don't know. I've got another thing I'm going to do next hour after I tell you the other thing. Next hour. Hope to get to this other thing where you don't know what the truth is anymore. We are pulling ourselves completely apart. Right? You don't know what the truth is. You don't know what to believe anymore. Did Erica kill her husband, Charlie? Kirk, please. But there are a lot of people who don't know. They don't know the truth. Why? Why don't they know the truth? Because people who don't believe in anything will fall for everything. And we don't know what we believe anymore. We gonna elect Mamdani. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. New York is going Marxist, maybe Islamist to some degree. That's going that way. It's gonna happen. So how is that gonna work?

Glenn Beck (15:24)

In the end it will be a local farmers, a local farmer's market. In the end it'll be your ability to trade with one another the way you want to trade. Okay, that's what, that's how it'll be sold. And it'll be 15 minute cities. It'll be 15 minute cities because the rest of the world is going to be AI digital IDs, globalism, tracking everything. And this will become the anti that. And so they'll say I'll live in the 15 minute cities. Remember, it'll be degrowth and Marxism. But it will be packaged in such a way we don't want to be that. We don't want to be that. So I'll live in my 15 minute city. I don't need all of that technology. I don't need to self driving cars. I'd rather know my neighbor. I'd rather walk down the street, get my food that I know I, I know I get. But I'm not going to be able to do those things. But I don't want to do all those things because I don't want to have the digital id. Okay. What you're going to get on one side it is in the end going to be globalist and fascistic global fascism on one side. The other side will be Marxist degrowth. These what I'm presenting to you is pretty much especially on the Marxist degrowth side, the global warming side, that's going to be a utopia that will never survive. It will never survive. But that's the utopia that people are going to be offered they are now going to. Because global warming is now starting to be, you know, a no go zone. It's going to be changed and it's going to become pro people, anti tech, anti big tech corporations, it's going to become about anti pharmaceutical companies, it'll be about real food, it'll be about health. And Maha, it's going to be about all the things that you probably go, I'm kind of for that stuff. And the other side is going to be the other side of you that you're for. Well, I'm for capitalism, I'm for progress, I'm for abundance, I'm for, you know, having energy. This is the split that is coming. And I believe the Marxist global warming side is going to be extraordinarily appealing to a lot of people. You may even have a right now, you'll hear this and go, I'm never going there. Mark my words. It's going to be very difficult to see the difference of right and wrong because everything's going to blur on you. Things that you think you're for, they're suddenly going to be for, but are they actually for that? And that goes to both sides of this issue. Because what's not on this chalkboard is the U.S. constitution. This is the way the world will split. These are the choices you're going to make. Which way do you go? There is a third way and it's the US Constitution that's not on the board because right now that's not popular. And no one's talking about it more in just a second. Let me go to relief factor. There's a certain rhythm to life when your body works the way it's supposed to. You know, you see a sign, you know, go. You see a sign come down, you know, somewhere, you know, in the middle, the family moves. But anyone who has actually been through that process, you know, they know, they know it is really, really hard. Every step, every reach, every bend, everything. You don't realize how much matters until one day you do. When that discomfort settles in and that sign says go and you're like, okay, I got to hold on just a second, you know, start. The small moments start to feel like obstacles. Think about, you know, think about little things like tying your shoes. Tie your shoes. Easy until you start to feel your back a lot. And then you like have to sit down, you got to stand up. You think about getting in and out of the car at times if your back is killing you, if your body is aching, it's tough. But what relief factor does is help you get back to that effortless part of living, you know, not through numbing, not through masking or ignoring anything but, but, but supporting your body's natural response to discomfort. So that movement feels like movement again, not calculation. There's a difference between getting through your day and actually living it. Feel the difference that relief factor can make at their three week quick start. Give it a try now 1995. Visit relief factor.com or call 800 for relief. That's 1-800-the-4 relief relief factor.com 800 the number four relief. 10 seconds and back to the show. Okay, Stu, you follow that? Did I explain that well enough?

Glenn Beck (25:15)

Hey, make sure. You get your no king but christ gear@glennbeck.com our, our glennbeck.com store is open. I'm wearing the no king but Christ polo shirt right now. This is an old colonial symbol with the skull and crossbones and a crown floating above the head, meaning the king. Kings are human. They die. But the crowd, the crown is eternal and it only belongs on the head of Christ. No king but Christ. You can get them now@glenn beck.com Let me, let me move something up. I was going to talk about this next hour, but I think this will help people really understand what is coming and why. I put this chalkboard together to show you how this is going to shape out, shake out in the future and, and, and why you really need to pay attention to the things that are happening right now. Forget Donald Trump going to run in 2028. He's trolling. Don't you get it? He's trolling. So can we talk about real issues? Let me tell you about the coming blackout right now in the last few days. There is a group of lawmakers in the mid Atlantic, in Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Virginia. They're all sounding the alarm. And they're sounding the alarm because they believe, and I do, too, that the worst power bill crisis in a generation is happening right now. Skyro rocketing bills and strained grids. How is it this is happening? We've drilled, baby, drilled. We've put new power plants online or old power plants we brought back online. Well, they're saying that part of the problem is all this new green energy crap. And everybody is still saying we got to have green energy. Got to have green energy. I just want you to hear me out here for a second. So I'm going to give you the, the reality of what's going on. Green energy is wonderful, I guess, but it's, it is absolutely a thing that will set us back 100 years plus. Okay. Green energy does not work for the America of 2000. It certainly doesn't work today. Every single month, a new server farm is breaking ground somewhere in America once a month. That means 12 new server farms this year. That is going to snowball by the end of 2026. You will be seeing them built and breaking ground maybe one a week. What we have so far, not building things small here. Each one of these data centers, which is feeding artificial intelligence, crypto, cloud computing, they consume as much power as 50 homes all the time. Told you at the beginning of the hour, Bill Gates has just come out and said, you know what? You know, global warming is not as bad as we thought it was. It's so laughable cuz it is so transparent. It's so evil. Uh, it's not as bad as everybody thought it was. We gotta get off this global warming bandwagon. We gotta do some things, but we need power plants. I'll tell you that right now. Why? You know who Bill gates partner is? OpenAI chatgpt. Okay, that's his partner. So we know why he's off this bandwagon. Because they're struggling right now to find enough electricity for what they're currently running, let alone the next generation of systems. You have Google, Meta, Amazon that are buying up land in every next to every major substation that they can find because they know what's coming. But wait a minute, they're building it near substations. Wait, wait, hold on. Are you taking the power from my home? In many cases, yes. Listen to this. This is from the International Energy Agency. This is something they just released. Global data center power will double by the end of 2026. That is equivalent to adding another Japan to our energy demand. Okay, another Japan. And that's just for computers and server farms. Adding Japan. What? What are we building to be able to serve that? Not enough. Ireland has just begun restricting the new data centers. Now here's what's going to happen. You're going to restrict them and it's going to leave you in the past. Now maybe you want to be left in the past and that's what that chalkboard is about. Maybe you want to be left in the past, but Ireland has just said no more server farms. We can't do it. Parts of the Netherlands, Singapore, Singapore, Sweden, they are freezing construction now on all server farms because their grids can't handle the demand. Already Tokyo's grid is so strained by the server farms that they have. Blackouts have already occurred in Tokyo during peak hours. China, which is building a new coal fire plant every week, is rationing power to factories so they can keep the AI data hubs running. So what happens when we shut down coal and stall nuclear and depend on sunshine and windmills? What happens? Who's powering the cloud? Pjm, this is Mid Atlantic grid. PJM is one that runs it, one of the largest in the world. They say their grid in the Mid Atlantic is already at the breaking point. They have warned quote of critically tight capacity, meaning one bad storm, one bad heat wave, one bad cold spell and you've got rolling blackouts. Okay, why? Because the last administration retired reliable fossil Fuel plants faster than we could replace them. We didn't replace them. So we're already behind the eight ball. And now the surge. And the search for power is on. In Maryland alone, energy production has dropped as consumption has surged. Why? Because of the data centers. Virginia's data center corridor, which is, you know, the economic crown jewel of, of Virginia, this giant data center corridor that happens in Virginia, it now consumes. Now today you're still figuring out what AI does. Okay, it now consumes 1/5 of Virginia's total energy output. 1/5 today. Why is your electricity price going up? Why have eggs gone down? They're back to over a dollar a dozen. Why is gas gone down? It's now back to the price it was in 20, what, 18 or 19. Why are these prices going down? Yet your energy costs are skyrocketing. Chachi, PT, AI, all the things that Amazon just fired 30,000 people because they're going to replace them with electric robots and machines and AI. That takes power. Imagine, you know what happens to your price of housing when you import 10 million people. The price of housing goes through the roof and nobody can afford a house. What happens to electricity when all those people are not powered on food or you know, have to live in a house but just need electricity? When you have all that electricity demand for these AI systems and bots, of course the price is going to go through the roof. Especially if we are at the same time that the, the demand is going up. We're saying limit the number of power plants. Let's go all green. If you want green energy and you've known this, we've said this, it's anti, it's de growth. But listen to me carefully. I am not throwing you under the bus. If you want green energy, then you have to recognize and maybe you're fine with this. Probably are no Bitcoin, no AI and no modern digital economy. It doesn't exist. If you want AI and the server farms and the EVs and your self driving car digital infrastructure, you must start building power plants in your state right now. The problem is these two realities cannot coexist. So we're going to see a split in the country. Okay, the climate cult as they're calling it, it's going to run headlong into artificial intelligence. And when that happens, lights go out in your house. So what do you do? Let me give you two options. If you live in a state and you want to go net zero, you now have to demand right now that they stop approving new server farms in your State because that is in direct conflict with your green agenda. You cannot live in a state that is building new server farms or is supplying power to server farms across the border to another state.

Glenn Beck (34:52)

You must pass laws right now, and I'm not for this but I just giving you the option. If you're for a green energy revolution, you must stop all server farms being built in your state or they will bleed you dry. And you must also pass a law saying we are not selling our electricity over state lines for a server farm. Got to do it. Got to do it. Now you cannot run a trillion, a trillion parameter AI model on fairy dust or solar power or wind power. It doesn't happen. Now if you believe in innovation, if you believe in the free market, if you believe in progress, if you believe in AI, you gotta call your state reps right now and demand new stable, high output energy plants. The president is saying that all of these companies that are building these server farms must be responsible for their own power. They must build their own power plant. You don't get anything from the grid, but that's not happening. So you need to go to your state rep and say they cannot take the grid power, they cannot take the power from the people. They have to create their own power. And I would say, and in fact if they want to do it in the state, they must put some excess power into the grid because they're the ones that are going to be able to build the nuclear power plant, not your state. They will gas, nuclear, hydro, whatever it takes. You need to call your state and say we want power and we want the grids and we want the server farms. But if you are apathetic on this or if you are ignorant on this and you don't begin to act now, you are going to be, you're going to, you're going to be, you know, at the whims of whoever it is that's running your state, California, we know which way you're going. But are you building server farms as well? Because if you are Utah, you should pass a law. We are not going to sell any more power to California because they will take your power to fund their server farms, not the people, their server farms. They will buy more power from you. Which if they're buying it from you, do you have enough for your server farms and your people in your state? Most likely no. Unless you are doubling down on energy building right now. This is the near term problem. Believe it or not, by the end of 2026, everybody will be very well aware of what energy is costing them and what server farms are doing to the stability of our grid. Unless people act right now. And you know, it's one thing to act at the federal level. This has to be at your local level. And quite honestly, I want the energy in Texas. I am not. I do not want to ship our energy someplace else for somebody else's server farm if they're not pulling their own weight on electricity. Because Texas is going to have server farms out the wazoo. We are building the power plants. We're not building them fast enough, but we are building them. And until we know our population, which is growing exponentially, our population can have the power they need to live, survive and work. And the power player, the server farms that we are building, they have their power as well. There shouldn't be any. There shouldn't be one kilowatt that is going across our border, especially to states who are green. But this one's going to be up to you. All right, back in just a second. Simply SAFE Imagine a night when the wind is howling hard enough to move the trees. And the world outside your windows just feels a little less certain than it did earlier in the day. And you hear something outside. Maybe it's a branch, maybe something else. You don't know. You feel your shoulders tense up. That's the. That's when the motion sensor clicks on and the camera captures the image. The system that knows what to do before you even have to think about it. And it's not just motion, because lots of things could be moving in your yard. Is it a human figure? Is it somebody that shouldn't be there? Get rid of all of that uncertainty. Simply Safe is built for moments exactly like that. Not dramatic movie moments, but real life moments. A door that shouldn't be open. A window that you know that is opening and creeks. A shadow moving where it shouldn't be. The monitoring of SimpliSafe is 24. Seven expert responders that are monitoring it. It's a network of sensors that are always a week awake, even when you're asleep. And it's security that doesn't wait for you to panic before it takes action.

This is Glenn. Becky. So Stu and I were just talking in the break, looking at this chalkboard and it's, it's a little overwhelming and I don't know if you understand. It's going to maybe take me a few shots at trying to understand, trying to understand and explain to you what I'm seeing. But this, I believe, is the battle of the future. This is where our lines are going to be drawn. And the, the secret is because there's a lot on both sides of this chalkboard that I laid out just a few minutes ago. If you missed it, go back to the podcast and listen to our number one of today's podcast. But you know, from, you know, from one side, the global warming degrowth, pro workers, anti AI, you know, anti capitalist, real food, Maha local free trade, 15 minute cities. There's a lot on there I'm kind of for in some of them really against. On the other side, drill baby, drill AI, tech driven, big business, big pharma, big ag, digital IDs, anti Marxist globalist abundance. There's a lot there I'm for and a lot I'm against. What is the answer? The answer is you need to know what your for, not against. Be very specific. On your principles. Start drawing those up right now. What are you for? Is Glenn Beck. I want to talk to you a little bit about Jace Medical.

Glenn Beck (46:37)

It does happen to the best. And I did last night. And I found myself in crazy town quickly. Crazy town. My gosh. Conspiracy after conspiracy after conspiracy. It's. It's like falling down a staircase made of madness. Every step you're hitting, you're like. I don't know if you know this, but Trump is secretly planning to run in 2028. Oh, he's not. He's trolling you. What is wrong with you? I don't know if you know this, but Eric, Erica Kirk is in league with Donald Trump. And the Jews, they killed, they killed Charlie Kirk. Erica was behind it. She knew. She called off the police. It's madness. This is literal insanity. You know, I was watching some of these things and I thought, this is. I mean, this honestly is making the most alcohol fueled days of Alex Jones seem like Walter Cronkite's most credible moments. What is happening? It's because it's, it's everywhere. It's everywhere. And the bad news is some of it's being laundered by credible hosts. I don't know if you saw the Robby Starbuck story. This one's horrible, because this is what's coming. Have you seen the Robby Starbucks story? So rob Robby Starbucks. This story is one we should all learn from Robby, an actual public figure, a husband, a father, is now suing Google and Google AI because it fabricated entire stories about him for two solid years. Now we've talked to him about this. It invented fake police records. It wrote fake timelines. For two years, Google's artificial intelligence said he was on Jeffrey Epstein's list and had been arrested for unspeakable crimes and just made it all up. No arrests, no real record, none of it. No truth to any of it, but just AI. The machine that we're told is going to save us made it all up and it was relentless. Scroll up Next, the death of Charlie Kirk. One of the most public executions in America. We all saw the footage. We all saw it. We wish we could unsee it, but within hours, the Internet had already decided it was the Jews in league with his own team. And Israel was paying for it and covering up the truth. Oh, now, you know what I love about this is, you know, most of the accounts are anonymous. A source close. Oh, who is that source? An anonymous account. A screenshot now of headlines that never existed. And they, they, many of these things either began or ended with the phrase if this is true, it means. Well, if it's true, I guess it changes everything. If the sun is actually a giant light bulb and it's 25 miles in the sky, if that's true, then everything we know about space is wrong. But it's not a light bulb 25 miles up in the sky. Oh, that. If. If, if is becoming the gateway, it's the gateway drug to paranoia. Okay, now I have to tell you, there'll be many on the left who are like, I can't believe Glenn Beck, the chief conspiracy theorist is out there saying about conspiracy theory. I wasn't a conspiracy theorist. My mind were based in facts, documents. I would hold the document on the air, read it, read it for yourself, go to blah blah blah.gov and find it yourself. I would show you the money trails, the real quotes from people saying, you know what I'm going to do? If I ever get my way, I'm gonna make sure this country is communist. You know, if I ever get my way, I'm gonna kill all those people. I showed you those quotes. Not, you know if he said that. If that's true. No, I showed you what was true. You start with what people actually are doing what what you call can prove. Not what if I told you somebody says they're going to overthrow the west, believe them, take them at their word. Let's start there. Not with the, the missing piece, you know, the missing piece that I don't know. If we could just find this piece, then it would all fit together, wouldn't it? Yeah, well, it would. Let me explain to you the danger of this and what you need to understand. All of this is predictable. In fact, I predicted it in about 2006, and I used the moonshot as an example and I used George W. Bush and the lies of weapons of mass destruction and as an example, because these things were not true. If our government doesn't start correcting these things, having people pay for the crimes of. I lied. Yes, I lied. I shouldn't have lied. Maybe you go to jail for that lie, but you at least pay a price for that lie. And unless those things are cleared up, I said right now, the, the number of people who believe we went to the moon is 93%. 7% don't believe we went to the moon. You get 7% to believe just about anything. But mark my words, if we don't correct that, you will see it in the number of people who no longer believe we went to the moon. This is in 2006. Have you met people who say we never went to the moon, we never went to the moon. That was all a lie. I met lots of them. Lots of them and a lot of them. I think I thought that's a pretty intelligent person. You know, I've been watching this thing on the Internet. Oh, really? Really? Anybody who gets their news from the Internet is dumber than somebody who doesn't get their news from anywhere. Just don't get news over than getting your news from the scrolling Online, I get all my news, you know, from Facebook. I get everything I need to know from X. Oh, really? You're a moron. Here's the problem. Our government has lost all of its credibility. Our institutions, their trust has evaporated. And this madness is only going to grow because if you no longer believe in anything, you will believe everything. That's what's happening. You can't argue with this stuff because you'll say, that didn't happen. Wait, you mean that if Erica did it and the Jews did it, that means that Donald Trump is in on it? That's right. Oh. Oh, my. Okay. Your whole world has just fallen apart. Everything that you thought you believed is gone. Now we are drowning in digital rumors because we stop trusting our own ability to find what's real. Let me ask you, and this is an honest question, is there a public voice that you trust today that will tell you it's not as bad as you think it is? Is there anybody in that you trust that is saying, you know what? Don't, don't, don't, don't go there. Please don't go there? Is there anybody that you trust that will say, you know what? I used to think this, but I don't think that anymore. Because if they can't say that, then they're not a thinking human being. If they're exactly the way they were 25 years ago, they are dead inside. They're not searching for anything. Because everything in the world has changed. But that doesn't mean you throw everything. We didn't go to the moon. Yes, we did. Yes, we did. Yes, we did. I don't trust the media. I don't trust Congress. I honestly don't trust the FBI. I don't. I don't know who to trust. I don't know who to trust. And I'm not alone. You're not alone. According to Gallup, trust in newspapers has dropped 18%. Who knew newspapers were even being printed? Television News is at 14%. That's an all time low. And when nobody believes anything, everyone starts believing everything and anyone. People that you've never. I know people who have listened to me for years. I've trusted you for a long time. But I just saw Bozo. Bozo the. The Nose Clown. You mean Bozo the Clown? No, something entirely different. I've never even heard of this guy, but I heard him say this, and I believe him over you. Really? Bozo the Nose Clown. You've never seen him before. You don't know anything about him, but somehow or Another, he's earned your respect in that 47 second video that disproves to you all my credibility is gone. Who you've listened to for years. Wow, you're a thinking human being. We are weeks. I don't believe years. We are weeks away. Months probably more accurate from you no longer being able to believe your eyes at all. Okay, that has always been the test. I'll believe it when I see it. Well, you're going to see deep fakes and you're not going to know what to believe. I mean deep fakes already fake. Major newsrooms, they fools newsrooms. Last year the Pentagon had to issue a correction because a fake AI generated explosion photo near the White House caused a brief dip in the stock market. It wasn't true, but act on it. Act on it, act on it. That's how fragile the truth has become. And it's only going to get worse. Some of the conspiracies that are floating around right now say that foreign money is infiltrating groups like Turning Point usa. Maybe. Could be, could be, wouldn't doubt it. I think foreign money is trying to influence everything. We're vulnerable right now. But here's the question I don't hear anybody asking. Is there any foreign money funding the conspiracy themselves? Troll farms in St. Petersburg, the Chinese bot networks amplifying division on both the left and the right. I mean we have the facts. According to cybersecurity firm Recorded Future, Russia and China run coordinated campaigns every single day pushing disinformation design designed to make Americans hate each other. Let me ask you this question. Who benefits when we tear ourselves apart? Who gains when we can't agree on anything? Not even reality? I'll give you a hint. You don't win. I don't win. America doesn't win. So I thought of this. How do we solve this problem? Let me go there in 60 seconds. First, you know the funny thing about cell service? We carry these little devices that connect us to the people we care about most. But the companies we're paying every month, you know, they don't seem to care about us at all. They're busy funding causes and campaigns and cultural movements that you know, we'd never support in a million years. And it's a strange feeling realizing that you're out pushing the country in a direction you don't believe in just because, you know, everybody uses this. You don't have to go along with that. You do have a choice. Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. Same nationwide coverage that you're used to same major networks but they use a portion of what you're already spending to support values that you share. Switching isn't about making some grand statement. It's about aligning your everyday life for what you believe is right. Stewardship. That's what it looks like. Making ordinary choices that share you know that, that that shapes the world that you and your kids are living in and your kids and grandkids will inherit. Take a stand today.

You just have to have the spirit with you. You have to have something that will testify to you of truth when you can't find it, it. Okay, second thing is know what you're for, not what you're against. So many of these conspiracies are are built on what you're against or you're supposed to be against. Look for the things that you're for. What is it that you're for? Because when everything becomes a conspiracy, when everyone becomes the enemy, when every if this is true becomes your next truth, you're standing up against everything. And you're not standing for anything. You're standing for nothing. And that's how civilizations fall. How many people do you know that are standing for something? Not against. Civilizations fall not through invasion but through infection. Infection of the mind and the spirit and of the truth itself. Know what you're for before you share that. Next breaking post. Say stop and ask yourself who does this benefit? Is this for something or against something? Before you say if this is true, stop yourself. Who benefits if just I believe this because the real conspiracy here, the one that is really sweeping America, the one our enemies and I mean that spiritually and temporally, the real enemies of the truth, the real conspiracy is the one that convinces you to stop believing in truth altogether. And we are close to that. Find the things that you know are true and build on those things. It's really scary. It's really scary. But it is so freeing when you'll just clean out everything that you think you believe but you haven't earned that yourself. I started with religion. I was taught, I listened to other people. I didn't find God Myself, I didn't search myself. It was taught to me. Well, you can't live on somebody else's testimony. Is your testimony of this country? Is your testimony of why you believe in the free market system, if you do, or why you believe in Marxism. Because you've torn it apart, because you've looked at it from all sides? Most likely not, but that's the only way you can actually defend something. Otherwise, you're just going to be blowing in the wind. And that's what's happening. We're all blowing in the wind. What was true today suddenly, because Bozo the nose is on all of a sudden? Nope. I don't believe any of that stuff anymore. Because there's something in you that tells you you're being lied to. And you are being lied to. You are. But go deeper. Look for the things that are true. You cannot find the truth. If you don't have some sort of rock you're standing on, you will be blown apart and lost at sea. Find the rock first and build on that rock. Then you can go online and go, that's true. That's not true. That's true. That I should investigate some more. There's lots of things that I don't believe are true that I'm investigating. I want to know. But you can't do it if you don't know who you are and what anchors you. Please anchor yourself and then anchor your family. Back in a minute. This is Glenn Beck. You know, dogs age faster than we do. We know it, but we don't always feel it. Until one day we look over and realize our best friend, he's gotten so gray, he's not moving around as he used to. Maybe they don't jump when you come home. Maybe they just lay on the floor and their. Their tail hits and thumps the floor. Maybe the stairs seem a little harder. Maybe the energy isn't just there. And then it hits you. Their whole life happens in the space of your memories. Childhood to old age. All while you're still figuring out your own next step. So if there's something you do to support their health, their joints, their coat, their energy, keeping them as young as possible. You do it because they can't ask. They trust you. Rough greens is something that I want you to look into. It's not a new dog food. It's a nutritional boost that you add to the food that they already love. You sprinkle it on a simple daily habit that can help support their overall health and vitality. By the way, my dog did not like any food. Any food he wouldn't eat till he started putting rough greens on it. And then he gobbled it down. And we saw difference in our dog. Get your free Jumpstart trial bag. Cover the shipping.

And that didn't happen at all. And so that means good things for Argentina and good things if you are a small government person. It is, it's changing, it's changing the, the South American continent. And it is part, I think, of The Monroe Doctrine 2.0, which I told you, I think that's why we're actually bombing those boats in Venezuela. This is Monroe Doctrine Stuff 2.0, Donald Trump's version of it. And I want to talk to our, our good friend Carol Roth, who is an economist and can tell us exactly what's going on in these currency swaps. And quite honestly, the one thing Donald Trump did do that I really don't like is he just quadrupled the amount of beef that can come in from Argentina. Argentina has good beef. But, but we need American ranchers. What are we doing importing all this? He was trying to shore up their economy and also make beef cheaper here. But that hurts our ranchers. We're going to talk about that with Carol here in just a second. First, let me tell you about preborn. Every day somewhere in this country, here's a child, a heartbeat for the very first time, decides that she's going to choose life instead of death for that child. And each time it happens, it's a quiet miracle. One made possible by people who believe that love can be louder than than fear. And that group of people is the Ministry of Preborn. Preborn helps expectant moms hear that sound for themselves by offering free ultrasounds, compassionate counseling and practical support long after their appointment ends there. You're not going to convince anybody with arguments. They're there to let the truth speak in the most human way possible. Right to mom's heart. Since the overturning of Roe vs Wade, abortions have have spiked rather than gone down. The situation has got much worse. We have to change that. Preborn is expanding their life, affirming care in the darkest corners of our nation to help more hurting women and save more babies. If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way? Your tax deductible donation of about $15,000 will place a machine in a needy women's center that will save countless lives for years to come.

Bye bye. Carol Roth, she is just. I just love Carol.

Carol Roth or you can follow her on X at Carol J. S Roth. All right, when we come back, we are going to talk to Representative Stutzman in Indiana. He wants to talk a little bit about what's happening in Nigeria. And I also want to talk to him about redistricting in Indiana. We'll do both of those things when we come back. This is Glenn Beck. You know, I don't know about your family, but every family, I think, has that one person who thinks they're practically a doctor because, you know, they watched a medical drama for a while, all of the seasons, you know the type you mentioned your back hurts. And they say, oh, that's probably your L4 vertebrae acting up. You know, meanwhile, they're eating, you know, a corn dog and haven't touched a treadmill since the Bush administration. Then you have the other fresh who swears they can fix with ancient, you know, ancient stretches and ancient medicine from that they found on YouTube. And next thing you know, you're upside down, stuck in a position, you know, named after a bird, wondering, how the hell is this all gonna end? It's not the best way to spend your day.
