The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Glenn Beck is our hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. It is Wednesday the 7th of January in the year 2026 that is going to be remembered as a year the entire world changed. I absolutely believe 26 and 27 are monumental and will decide, and I think it's being seen right now. Is America an empire in decline? I want to talk to you about Iran, North Korea, Greenland, the arsenal of democracy, what's happening in New York with Mamdani and Krink. I'm going to start with a term or an acronym you probably have not heard before. But it is what is being dismantled or attempting to be dismantled by this administration right now. Krink, we'll go there in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about rapid radios. Out on the ranch. You learn pretty quick, you know, regular phones, not really a solid plan. There are dead zones. There are moments when you don't, you know, have time to dig a phone out of your pocket and just hope you have a signal. In fact, we don't have signals up at the ranch. That's why we use rapid radios. They just work. No apps, no cell service, no waiting for a bar to pop up. You press a button and you're talking instantly, whether you're checking fences, moving, equip. You know, I actually had one of the guys that works at the ranch, he went off a cliff accidentally and his forerunner was upside down in the top of a tree. That was an interesting thing because he couldn't get down and we finally were like, where's Caesar? We found him in the top of a tree with the Forerunner, but he had no cell service, nothing. Rapid radios would have come in handy. We have them now at the ranch. Rapidradios.com Go there now, secure your exclusive savings and elevate your Business Communication. It's Rapid Radios.com. rapidradios.com Communication Redefine. Well, let me. I don't even know where to start. I have so much I can't wait to explain to you today. You know, I've been on this, this, this hunt I feel since over the weekend with Venezuela. And it's all starting just to fall into place. You know, one of the only skills I think God gave me was the completely useless, you know, when the world breaks down, storytelling ability that's going to get me eaten by week one. They're like, he's out of stories and he looks delicious. The, the other thing that I do have an ability to do is connect the dots. And I've been on this dot connecting kick here in the last few days and more dots seem to be appearing and I am. It's becoming very clear that America and empire in decline is not a thing. And I want to take several layers of this, but I want to start with an acronym that you've probably never heard before. Crink. CR I N K Crink. What does it stand for? It is what we would call the Axis power. And I have been talking about we're watching an axis power being created. I've been saying that forever. Look at the sides are being defined, the Axis power. And it's China, C, Russia are Iran I and North Korea. Crink. That's the Axis power. And I've been saying, where's Churchill? Where's anybody who, you know, where, where's the allied power? Because NATO, that's not a power. That's not, that's not gonna come in helpful at all. It, it felt like the ent. In decline. And it's because we've been talking about decline. We're in decline. Or are we? We elected Donald Trump because we were tired of this and we're tired of these endless wars and everything else. And Donald Trump had a vision and he tried to tell me this, you know, for the year leading up to the election. Glenn, I got it. I got it. You won't believe how fast we're going to, we're going to change everything and we're going to have a new American century, but it's going to happen. It's going to happen. Quickly. And I didn't understand it. I think I'm just beginning to understand it. We're not. He's not building an American empire. He is building something that I think is much closer to what we were hoping for or thought was going to be built in the 1990s. When we talked about a unipolar moment, you know, that. That America was going to lead, but everybody was going to get together because we're all free now. And, you know, we had these hopes of lollipops and sugar plums and everything was going to be great because we won. And if that's the science is settled. And we didn't realize that communism just changed uniforms and we were entering this really very dangerous world because we would get fat and sassy and lazy. Donald Trump is changing and building a new allied power. And I told you a couple of days ago, and I think, you know, we need to really think this through. I think he's given up on Europe, and I think he should give up on Europe, honestly. I mean, they can come to the table anytime. They can change their destiny, and I'd love for them to join, but until they decide they want to survive, they're over. So let me just take you through the things that are happening, and I want to get to Iran and I want to get to Greenland. But let me explain first the power that he is building, what he's building here. Let's start where he started. In the Middle east. We have gone from endless wars to a loosely, you know, US Anchored block. We're no longer walking in and saying, we're gonna do it. We're gonna nation build. Instead, he's saying, you know what? This doesn't work. And we'd love to help broker a deal between all of you guys. And, you know, look what you can build. And let me help you with the framework so you can all get along. For 20 years, it feels like America. Longer than that, the story of the Middle east was Americans go in, Americans retreat, and Iranians advance. Right then in the first term, he came with the Abraham Accords and Israel normalized with the UAE and Bahrain and Morocco. And now everybody is. Now it seems like everybody is normalizing relations. And the entire. He has taken the entire Middle east, which was available to all of the presidents in the past, but they didn't do it for some reason or didn't get it. They all don't want Iran. They know Iran is dangerous. He just took them all and went, yeah, you guys should all get together, because you can actually be A global power and influence, but not with Iran. And so he normalized the relations between them. And it, it wasn't just a series of photo ops for him. It was, he took the US and aligned the economic and security architecture for everybody. Israel, the Gulf, potentially Saudi Arabia and the US but we are not the ones doing it. We're not the ones that are fighting everybody's battles. That's really important. Now, layer on top of that, the Israelis and Iran went to war. And the only thing that we did was we destroyed their nuclear capability. The other thing we did with Iran, which we didn't have no boots on the ground, nobody's no soldiers, no airmen, you know, at risk here. We just stopped sending them pallets of cash. Now what is happening in Iran? Iran is facing the worst economic crisis in modern history. Inflation is now at 52% for this last year. And the real, which is their dollar, if you will, is now 1.47 million rials to one US dollar. The average Iranian is making $200 a month. You can go in with a US dollar and buy bread for 36 cents. That seems cheap for US dollars, but if you're buying everything in reals, that's 500,000 reals, and you're making $200, your rent is more than $200. They can't feed themselves, they can't heat their house, they can't do anything. It's almost a free fall. And it's almost Weimar Republic status. Okay? So everyone is consumed with just surviving. You know, when you have fear, when you have oppression, that's bad. And that'll get people into the streets. But when they cannot survive, they can't eat. That changes everything. And the axis of resistance, that's Hezbollah, Hamas, the Iraqi militias, the Houthis, all of that. They can't afford to keep all of that together. But they're bringing, now the regime is bringing these people in. They are Arab. The vast majority of people that live in Iran are Persian. Persians are very different than Arabs. They have Arabs now coming in to be the brute force. That's not going to go well. Now, this doesn't immediately create peace, but it is shifting the momentum. So I'm going to come back to Iran here in a minute, but let me just show you now. So you have Israel plus the Sunni Arabs. Iran is weakened, distracted. Russia, China, what's happening there, and North Korea. Let me show you what this means with just North Korea and all of this with crink. He's just dismantling these people. It's Amazing what's happening so fast. Second point, energy. What has been our biggest problem? Why are we always in these wars? And they always say, well, it's in the American interest, why oil? Right? That's been the big argument. Oil, oil, oil. And anybody who is a conservative, you know, or, or just common sense and doesn't think that oil is the big worst thing that could ever happen. We've all been saying, we have enough oil. Why are we buying our oil from the Middle East? We have enough, okay? Now we need much more because there's and coming energy crisis the world over. But we have had this addiction to oil and it has been our biggest weakness because everybody can use it against us. We can have, you know, shortages of oil. They can cut us off. We're constantly having to go to war for oil. Although we never go to war for oil. We all know we all went to war for oil, okay? Trump came in and said enough of this and applied common sense. We're not going to fight over oil anymore. We've got our own oil. But what did he do? He is now making deals all over the world to make sure that we're controlled like OPEC used to control the world's oil. Our hemisphere is going to control the Western world's energy. Not opec, us. That is part of what I called the, what did I say that it was yesterday? The shoot. The, the arsenal of democracy. Okay? We are preparing for war. Whether we like it or not, we are preparing for a massive war. Hopefully because we're preparing for it, it will never happen. But we are now not the vulnerable importer. We are now the stable producer and the one who is shepherding all of the oil. Did you hear what happened just a couple of hours ago? We have been following this tanker that has been Russian flagged. Okay? Once you flag a ship, then if you flag it Russia, then the Russian navy can get involved because that's a Russian flag ship, even though it doesn't belong to Russia. We have been following the ship and trying to stop this oil tanker from bringing oil that should not be going overseas from Venezuela. And we have been trying to track it down. Well, about few hours ago, maybe five hours ago, we caught up with it. Now Russia was sending ships to protect this because it was a Russian flagship. What happened? Our navy just pulled up to it and boarded it. And that ship is now where it belongs. It's impounded. It was never supposed to be taking oil. It was against international law, we had an embargo on it, et cetera, et Cetera. Well, we caught up with it. So we are very, very serious about this. And because of the way Venezuela just happened, American credibility on the war front there, the rest of the world, our enemies, are freaking out right now because even people who are in the military, I shouldn't say in the military, I'm sure they know more. But people who have been watching the military, former military, people that know about the military, even, they are looking at it going, how the hell did we just pull this off with Venezuela? What do we. What do we. How did we beat that? That's. That's Russian, That's China. That. That's the best technology or some of the best technology that is. That is able to be sold out of those countries. And we shut it down like it was a baby gate. How. How did we do that? We don't know. Do we have new technology, or are they just that bad right now? The rest of the world realizes, holy cow. Militarily, America is not a declining power. It is way ahead of where we are and where we thought they were. So that they're just. That alone is changing the dynamics. You don't have to exercise that power if everyone knows you have that power, and everybody goes, you don't want to mess with them. Power comes strength, peace through strength. That is now a proven part of it. And if you look at the pieces that are on the board, I think Cuba is going to. I think in the next year, Cuba will collapse, because where is Cuba? Cuba can't get any money from Russia. They don't. They don't have it. They don't have it. They're busy and tied up in Ukraine. They were supporting. They started cutting Cuba off. Cuba needs the money because communism doesn't work. And so they needed the money. So where did they go? They went to Venezuela, and they were getting oil and support from Venezuela, and they were providing other things for Venezuela. Well, you just took Venezuela away, so what's Cuba gonna do? Where's. Where's Cuba? What is China gonna do without all of the energy? You can't invade Taiwan without all of that oil. Can't do it. All right, let me continue and show you the world that he is creating. And then I want to bring you up to speed on what happened in Iran, because this is something we have not had a chance to go in depth on. And it's really important because it's not being collapsed by us. I mean, it is, but in all the right ways. We're not sending them pallets of cash anymore. So what does that mean brings us back to Krink. And I want to show you why this has happened in the last 18. It's 12 months. I keep thinking that it's been longer than it is. It's, it's, we're not even at the 12 month point yet. And look how the world is changing. Crazy change more in just a second. Let me tell you about Legacy Box. Tell me you don't own a box like this one. Old VHS tapes, you know, from a camcorder. You don't own any more. Stacks of cassettes and films and reels and you know, these cassettes, these video cassettes that you don't even know what that used to play in or how that was even recorded. And it's just sitting there in this box and it's wearing down with time. And then, you know, time will sneak up on you and you know, memories aren't frozen and you know, magnetic tape breaks down, film degrades and eventually if you wait long enough, they're just, they're dust because you didn't care and you stored them improperly, etc. Etc. But they just weren't made to last. And that's including pictures. Legacy Box is the way to make sure that all of that is digitized. You are the archivist for your own family. If you probably care more about the history of your family than some other people in your family, you have to take control of this. And the way to do it is by kicking off the New Year's the right way and rescuing your family's most cherished memories that haven't been watched or enjoyed in years.

Okay, I'm going to get to Iran here in a second and tell you what's going on and what to watch for. But let me just tell you another thing that he has done. He's building, he's, he's building a new era. He is building an American, a new American century. And it's, it's happening so fast. The other thing that he's done and he's doing it the right way, he is negotiating and making these partners all around the world so we can protect ourselves and our way of life and the Western civilization. Honestly, he's pushed $10 billion in critical mineral deals across multiple countries just in the last 12 months. So China has a monopoly on refining. They, I mean they had all of the rare earth minerals they had all the cobalt. They had everything. Notice they don't. And why? Because he's been going around the world making deals through pressure and good deal making, you know, one way or another, he'll get it. He's developing this axis, or, sorry, allied power, and we're getting all of the resources we need. And I haven't even told you about the dollar and gold yet. Wait until you hear this. Save the dollar. I think he's on that road. All right, let me tell you about real estate agents I trust most people, you know, don't really know how to evaluate real estate agents. Everybody has a license, everybody has a smile. Everybody says, I'm the top producer. But when the markets shift, the deal gets complicated. That's when a difference between a salesperson and a professional really shows up. And that's why real estate agents I trust exists. It's not a directory of, you know, who's paid to be listed. This is a network of agents who have been vetted for experience. These agents call us because we are a great referral service. And we have thousands, literally thousands of agents that want to work with real estate agents I trust. But we keep the number down to, I think it's about 3,000 agents around the country because we want to be able to watch them, make sure. Because they don't work for me, I just refer them to you. We vet them to make sure that you can trust them, that they are the best in your area. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, trust matters. Having the right person matters. Buy or sell a home, even in a tough market. Realestate agents I trust dot com. I don't charge you for it. It's a free service to you. It's realestate agentsitrust.com. find the right person to help you with your.

I want you to know I am, I am very optimistic. For the first time, I've been saying, I told you, I think two or three years ago, I had been saying this internally, but I didn't want to say it to you until I just really felt like we could do something about it. And I had been feeling for several years, no way out, no way out, no way out. Look at the debt. Look at, look at, look at the Axis power is just growing and growing in strength. Look at what is happening. We're not. We're giving away our strategic oil reserve for political reasons. And war is on the horizon. And we are getting weaker and weaker. And Naito. Nate, that's the. That's the. That's the allied powers, Naito. NATO is worthless right now. There's no string. Where's Churchill? Remember? Been saying that forever. Where's Winston Churchill, who can see over the horizon and the danger that is ahead and says, to prevent war, you must prepare. You must carry the biggest baseball bat and say, I don't think you're going to move that way and then have the credibility by. By drawing red lines and saying you're not going to cross over that red line. And if you do, I'm going to hit you on the head and then hit, Hit them on the head and then don't continue to club them to death. Don't try to rebuild them, just hit them on the head. Give them the punish, punishment you said you would give and then go away. Now you can do whatever you want with your country. Just don't do that again, okay? That's what he did in Venezuela, drew a red line. You're going to get out because you're an illegitimate president. You rigged the election and you're killing Americans with your drugs, okay? You're also bringing in communism, you're bringing in terrorists, you're training terrorists in Venezuela. We're not going to do that anymore. We're not going to tolerate it. Stop it right now. Leave right now, otherwise we'll come and get you. He drew a red line. He did it. And what, he left the government intact? Not a government we like. He left it intact. He did not destroy everything and regime change. He did what he promised he would do and then walked away. That's peace through strength. And I've never seen Reagan had this, but I don't think as strongly as Trump does, because Trump has proven this over and over and over and over again all over the world, the people. What he's doing is he is taking crink, China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. And he is saying, oh, you really, you wanted to put a little axis power together. That's great. And because America was perceived as in decline, people were saying, I got to find a new partner because I don't think I trust America to be the one that's going to stand. So I don't know what's going to happen to them. I think it's, I'm going to bet on China. And so people were betting on China. Trump is coming in and saying, no, don't bet on China, bet on us. Because here's what we're doing. Look at what we're doing, we're setting ourselves up to be the strongest country and the strongest, strongest hemisphere for the next century. You want to be with us. And he's making those deals. And so the people who were thinking about possibly doing bricks, you know, okay, we're going to start our own currency. Let me ask you this, you want to dethrone American currency and this is going to happen. Let me say it this, I'm not sure if it's going to happen. Now he may be able to figure this out to where our currency and things change. But we don't go through Weimar Republic times. Okay, if you're going to start your own currency to go against America, what do you have to have? When we got off the gold, what did, what did we do? We went from the gold standard to what the petrodollar. We based our dollar not on the full faith and trust of America, but on the full faith and trust that you got to buy oil with the US dollar. Okay? And we had to make a deal with the Saudi Arabians and opec. That's why we were mired in that mess forever was a horrible idea. But if you're going to go against that, you either have to have all the oil which gosh, look who's taking all of the oil. Look who is cobbling together all of the oil. Look who's making the deals in the Middle east to let them be strong. But you're going to come our way, not towards China. What just happened to the largest oil reserves in the Western hemisphere? They're now under our control with Venezuela. But we didn't overthrow the country. We just said you're not doing these things and if you do, we'll take you out too. We don't have, you don't have to be our friends but you're not going to be our enemies and you're not going to supply our enemies with things. Okay? So you can't base bricks on oil. Can't be a petrol dollar. And if you don't have petro dollars then you have to have a gold backed dollar. Anybody remember reading about the 10,000 tons that Venezuela has still in the ground? Go ahead, start your brics, go ahead. Where are you getting all that gold? Where are you getting it all? Because Venezuela is on our side. Venezuela is not going to dig up all that gold and send it to you China. So what are you going to back it up with? That's the kind of strategic thinking that he is doing that I don't think people really understand And I am very nervous because it is. They were sending submarines over for that tanker. Thank God we caught up to that tanker before the subs got there. But we are doing things that are very dangerous. Very dangerous. We. This is. Put on your big boy pants. We all can say, the West, Western civilization, is on the brink of collapse. But if you truly believe that, and I do, what are you going to do about it? You're going to eat around the edges. You're just going to pick on the edges and go, I want to fix this little thing over here. And I'm going to. We're going to take out the. The dictator that is sending cocaine over our border. That's not how to do anything. Not very long. You need to fundamentally change everything if you're going to save the West. And that's what he's doing. But to do that, you're going to break a lot of eggs. This is. Right now. We are in a good situation, I think, and I hope we're in a good situation, because the world is confused. He's breaking all of the. He's not traveling down the highways that everybody's like, he's going to come up here and he's going to turn left and then he's going to make two rights and then he's going to turn left again, because that's the way it works. He's not doing that. So all of our allies, or all of our. Some of our allies, all of our enemies, and especially those that were on the fence are like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I don't know where he's going here. I'm not sure what he will do. And so everybody is pausing and especially because of the, because of the success our military has had and an overwhelming. Almost like Israel, when they started, you know, the beepers went off and you're like, what the. When Ukraine went and took those tanks out and the airplanes with the drones, everybody's like, wait, everything's changing. No, no, no, no. From what I understand and. Jason, are you listening? Can you come on. From what I understand, that's. That was baby stuff compared to what we've just done in Venezuela. Is that true? Yeah. The, the Venezuela operation.

It's a completely different game today. He also is, he's fighting to win. I've never seen an American president fight like this ever in my lifetime, ever. He is, I think he's going to be remembered as assuming this works, this could go horribly. You know, by tomorrow this could all fall apart. But assuming this works, he's going to be remembered as a refounder. He is going to be the guy that relaunched America. And I want you to know only if he remains constitutional. Yesterday, you can find it@glenn beck.com George AI. It was, you know, constitutionally, where, where was this Venezuela thing? You should watch it. And I watched some of the comments. Some people, you know, because it was on YouTube and people were like, ah, see, Glenn Beck doesn't care about the Constitution. His George AI saying all of this stuff like, oh, Trump is the greatest. Did you even listen to it? Because it doesn't even know who Trump is. And that's not what he'd said. He said, you have to balance. Is this in the national interest? And it looks like it was in the national interest. But then constitutionally, and if it violates the Constitution, it cannot be done. And the last 40 seconds of that, George AI is like listening to George Washington. He's not taking Trump's side, he's not taking anybody's side. He's taking the side of the rule of law. And he says, clearly, if you violate the rule of law, if you violate the Constitution, then we have nothing. We are not America. We're not worth saving. You're building something new. So no violation of the Constitution. And that's where I stand so far. He hasn't done that. Oh, he's, he, he pushes those edges, but he hasn't violated it. He has put us in dangerous situations, but they've worked out well. And so far his batting average on military stuff is remarkable. I mean, think about since Vietnam. Show me the President, show me the, the military. You know, over a year's period that has been where he has, where any president has been, up back against the wall with so many possible World War 3, everything we're dealing with Ukraine, that could go to nuclear war, Iran could go to nuclear war, North Korea, China could go to nuclear war. All of these Things have. We've been saying. I haven't thought about being vaporized since I was 8. And everything he has done so far, so far has taken us from the brink, pushed us all the way there and then worked out in our favor. I've never seen anybody with that batting average before. Doesn't mean that he might not get up one day and then strike out and, you know, we're all vaporized. But so far, if this works, I mean, look at this. This why Iran is so important. I've been saying to you why Venezuela was so important. It is in our national interest as long as we don't violate constitution. So is Greenland, which I hope to get to today. But Iran, what's happening with Iran? We're not collapsing it. We're just not sending them pallets of cash. And we've taken their biggest threat to the world away. Their nuclear weapons program, we've taken that away. Israel did the rest of the work. And then we've cobbled together a coalition in the Middle east that also don't like Iran. And they're Arabs, and so they're putting pressure on it. China's been discounted because of the energy, the oil supply. Just that alone is going to cripple them. The rare earth minerals, we've taken away their monopoly on some of these things. Russia. Russia's bogged down in Ukraine. I'd love Ukraine to be solved and peace there. But they are not as strong as they used to be. They're not perceived even to be the military that we all perceived them to be. But they're relying. On whom? For all of their drones. Iran. Who is left to supply oil to China? Iran. If Iran falls, you've significantly impacted China and you've significantly impacted the war machine of Russia. Just Venezuela and Iran. Those two dominoes falling can change the. The standing of the west entirely. Entirely. It's very dangerous game we're playing. But there's a chance that America and the west survives. If this guy wins, we should all be rooting. I don't care how you feel about him. We should all be rooting that this strategy works and praying that it works. Because if it fails, we all lose. The entire west loses. All right. More in just a second. One of the hardest parts about personal safety is finding out, you know, finding something that you'll actually keep with you. Not something that ends up locked in a drawer because it's too big, too heavy, you know, too complicated to deal with. Makes you feel weird. You know, I've often thought if I was in. If I was standing there in a 711 and there was a robbery going on and somebody had a gun and they were pointing it at the cashier and I had my gun on me, would I pull my gun? I'm a really good shot, but would I pull my gun? I don't know. I don't know. Because there would be that hesitation in me. If I kill him, what happens? I've just escalated where it might not. He might just leave the store. So what did I do? Um, Burna I can carry. And I know for a fact I'm in a 711 and I see somebody with a gun. I see somebody harassing, you know, doing whatever. I'm absolutely launching tear gas right into that guy's face. Absolutely doing it. He'll be down on the ground for 45 minutes, you know, oh, it was a mistake. Sorry, dude. Sorry. But nobody's dead. Burna have one. I have one for me and every member of my family. They're all over 18. It's legal in all 50 states. No permits, nothing else. Check them out.

So I've noticed something about the way most of us eat. It's not that we don't care about the nutrition or the things we're putting into our bodies. It's that we're exhausted by it. Every label contradicts the next one, and every healthy option comes with the fine print. And by the time you've read the ingredients, you've already lost your appetite. That's why I appreciate Health Code. It cuts through all the noise. It is not trying to be trendy, not trying to be flashy. It is built around one simple question. What actually supports your metabolism instead of working against it? Health Code was created by Dr. Ben Bickman. He's a metabolic scientist who spent years studying why so many people feel tired and foggy and stuck despite, honestly, the idea that they're trying to eat better. The answer, more often than not, comes down to blood sugar and insulin and the kind of fuel that we're giving our bodies every day. Health Code is a nutritionally complete meal shake that is designed with the science in mind. And it is high in protein. It is rich in healthy fats.
Glenn Beck
It is.

I made strategic partnerships as this new venture with Torch on research. Ryan Morrow in his team is one of them. We've tripled the size of our research team. We're doing a special in March on the Islamization of America and the West. As we do our research, some things are too big to hold for that special. Something very important was found. We want to not hold it for the book. We want to hold it and give it to you next. And we'll be giving it to the government today. That exclusive with Ryan is coming up in just a minute. And it is very important that you hear it and hear it now. Pass it on. Crank the game. Glam Back is on. Glam. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We are doing a deep dive special in March, I think it is on what's happening with the Islamists here in America. How far, how advanced is this disease in America? It's a lot farther along than you thought. And, you know, unlike I've always hated when, when people are at the White House and they're like, you know, and I saw the president doing blow off of a hooker's belly in the Oval Office. But I didn't say anything. I'm saving it for my book. Like, that might be something important that you should have told the American people while it was happening. That is our way of doing these specials as we are going in. We are finding information. And I'm gonna break some news with Ryan Morrow here in just a second. He's one of the guys we're partnering with on doing research. He has uncovered something that we don't feel comfortable holding until March, you know, but we can get more subscribers if we hold it. Yeah. And we might have terrorist activity if we do hold it. So I think we're gonna release it. We're releasing it to you. And the White House will have this information, this, you know, by this afternoon. It is being placed in the hands of the White House as well. And, you know, also doj. It's important information. Ryan's going to join us here in just a second, actually 60 seconds. Sleep is one of those things you don't, you know, think about when it's working, you know, and you can't think about anything else when it's not working. You go to bed tired, you're brain keeps running, your body never really settles and you wake up feeling like you missed something important overnight. You did sleep organization. When you sleep, your body, your brain doesn't sleep. That's why you dream. It's, it's trying to make sense of everything you're processing during the day. If you're like me, you're moving at such a rapid pace. It's not putting things in the right filing cabinets when you're sleeping. That's like, okay, all right, he left a messy desk. I got a file. All these things in the right places. That's really important for you, your body to restore and for you to be able to work the next day and function as a human being. If you ever have problems with sleep and you don't like feeling drugged in the morning, I can't take something because I can't feel drugged in the next morning. You need Relief Factor. Relief Factor has come out with Z Factor and Z Factor will help you sleep. Go right now. 800 for relief. 800 for relief. Reliefactor.com get have your new year start rested, fall asleep and stay asleep with z factor@Reliefactor.com Let me bring in Jason, our head researcher. Jason's been doing research for me for what, 10 years now? Yeah. Okay. And he's military and former military intelligence. He is, he's just a great researcher and put a great team together and we have uncovered a lot of things in our 10 years together. One of the reasons why I changed my relationship with the Blaze, you can still see the show every day on Blaze TV but we have added 50% more information to the show. I have been frustrated with a load of commercials that we have to do as podcast broadcast. We have to pay for the transmitters and everything else and the local stations so they have to have that. But on podcast we don't. And so we just ran all these extra commercials and I hated it. There's not enough time in the day for me to tell you everything that's going on. So we've in those commercial breaks, Jason now is filling in and giving you deeper information. And if you're on is it Facebook today? Facebook today. The whole three hour show is on Facebook.
Carol Roth
Three hours.
Glenn Beck
But you can go to Glenn beck.com all for the whole month. It's free. You don't have to give a credit card for a 30 day trial or anything. It's just free. Just go to glenn beck.com, click on the little radio towers, hit watch and, you know, click the little arrow and you'll be able to watch the show and see what Jason is doing. Can I say you want to be on glenn beck.com? i just got finished of the first hour talking to this audience and they are definitely keeping me on my toes. This is the most informed audience. They're brutal. Oh, my God. Never bluff. They're brutal. They know. Amazing. Yeah. But anyway, so one of the reasons why I started all of this and changed my, my daily schedule is because I want to produce so much more information for you because it's incredible what's happening in the world, but I also want to go deeper on things. And so we have taken our Wednesday night special and we're spending all of that time on weekly research for the radio show and what we do on. And I hope you've heard the difference that just this week on the amount of time that we're spending on the radio show to get this really right and dialed in for you. But also we want to spend the time to find the deep stuff, not just the stuff that everybody can report on, you know, on FOX News or cnn, but the stuff that really matters and go deep so you understand it and you see what we believe is there. We'll be able to prove it to you. So we have partnered and almost tripled our research staff and budget. And we've also partnered with people like Ryan Morrow, who is really amazing. He is the Morrow Institute director. He's a counterterrorism expert and he's helping us do research on our first special on the Islamization of America and the West. Because, gang, if we do not pay attention to Islamism, and you're seeing it beginning here in New York, you're seeing it in Detroit, you're seeing it in the Somali community in Minnesota. It's happening. It's bad in Texas. And if we don't understand that and take it seriously, it'll be lights out. So that's our first special in March. However, we don't hold things back if I don't care about ratings or money more than I care about the Western civilization and our country. So Ryan found something and he's like, glenn, I think this is really dangerous. And I'm like, we got to expose it. He's like, glad you said that, because I think so, too. We needed to break this news Today and not wait for the special. And Ryan is here to tell us what he found. And he's, he's, he's giving this information to the White House and to other officials in the administration today, but you're hearing it here first. Ryan, welcome.
Ryan Morrow
Hi, Glenn. Thanks so much for having me on.
Glenn Beck
You bet. You're an incredible researcher and gosh, just, just this is so important. I, I can't wait to see what you got coming for the show. But anyway, tell us what you found that needs to be released to the American people today.
Ryan Morrow
Sure. So what was known prior to today is that there was a man and woman in Gaza who were killed in June 2024 because they were holding three Israeli hostages. Israelis came in, had to kill the two Hamas operatives, the man and the woman. And then it became known that the man was an official writer at the time called a correspondent for a website called Palestine Chronicle. Palestine Chronicle is basically the same thing. It's like the public face of a nonprofit organization based in Washington state called the People Media Project. And so the freed Israeli hostages sue them and their defense was, well, he's not really a correspondent, he's a contributor because they changed his title after this happened on their website. And they said even though he was writing for us actually two to three times a day after October 7th, it was on a voluntary basis. You can't prove that we actually gave him money. And so I, and in working with your team went through the website and what we found was really interesting. They boast about an event that they held in Gaza, ostensibly just to give free haircuts for Palestinian children. And this is an article written by that, that man who is an official writer, and he talks about his wife, who the woman who was killed in the raid, doing this event for the Palestine Chronicle. And they refer to her essentially as a staff member. They say this is her, our initiative coordinator for the event. Our staff put on this event and they slip up enough that they actually say funds for this initiative was raised from personal donations by Palestine Chronicle editors. Now what does that mean? That means money passed from that Washington state based organization, the Palestine Chronicle editors, to the wife of this guy, of this main hostage holder who she was also involved in there. So their defense of, well, our writer guest was holding Israelis hostage and writing for us while holding them hostage. But you can't prove that we gave them money, but we found in their own words, they gave money to his wife. That is, as far as I can tell, illegal. Is illegal to knowingly pass money to Hamas operatives. And by the way, the husband, and they knew this at the time because of the Facebook interactions, was a publicly identified spokesperson for Hamas's Ministry of Labor. So it doesn't get more solid than that. And we are busy right now mapping out the connections of this organization of the head of it, Ramzi Barud, because this leads to all sorts of other organizations, including one in Turkey led by Sami Al Arian, who was one of the top Muslim Brotherhood, Palestinian Islamic Jihad leaders, a professor in Florida who was deported shortly after 9 11. So this shows that this group, yes, they're connected to Hamas, but they're actually part of this broader Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Palestinian Islam Jihad connected network out of Turkey. Oh, and I also need to mention that the chief editor of Palestine Chronicle, at least used to be, maybe still is a non resident scholar at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
Glenn Beck
Wow. So, Ryan, this is. We have not been willing to. To say. Some of us have. You certainly have. For a long time we've tried to say the things that are true and everybody has dogpiled and said Islamophobia. Islamophobia. I think because of the Trump administration, those days aren't just over where you can say something that is true and is not Islamic. I don't care about Muslims. I care about is Islamists. That's who I care about. The ones who use Islam as a political power and want to have Sharia law, those are the dangerous ones. That's not radical, that's political Islam. And do you feel that the administration, because I'm sensing they are. Do you feel the administration is serious about these things and we're going to start seeing these not just exposed, but people being deported, institutions being shut down and this where that we actually take this serious, as I believe we are in a war against Islamists. Are we starting to deal with it that way, do you think?
Ryan Morrow
I certainly believe so. And from a few different angles to your earlier point, actually, since I was a teenager, I started doing this when I was 16, professionally, that's when I was first hired. I base it on the idea that civilians could be almost like an intelligence counterpart to the federal, state and local agencies. And so I've put together a civilian intelligence network ever since then back in 2002. So I could see the impact that things like this actually have. So it's not something we have to just say, well, is the administration going to do this or that? Like you can play an active part in it. And I think most people don't understand that. Your audience does because they are Obsessed with research, as I can tell every time I'm on your show. Yeah, the emails I get. But. So this is very impactful. This is equipping the administration when the will is there to do, to take action, civilians can provide it. It's not just a matter of saying, oh, well, we got the right people in power now. Let's just sit back and watch. No, you've got to be active.
Glenn Beck
Part of it.
Ryan Morrow
And by the way, some of my best sources, the best informants I've had deep inside some of these groups were Muslims who came to me. So you're absolutely right that it's not about fighting Muslims. It's because some of my best allies have been Muslims. And to prove your point that, yes, the administration will act specifically on the stuff that you and I put together. Look at what has happened since we released our investigation into George Soros network financing with over $80 million into domestic terrorist groups and pro terror groups. Within three business days, the New York Times reported that the Trump administration had essentially launched an investigation of George Soros network as a result of what we did together. And that's already having effects, even if you're not hearing about it publicly, because we were actually attacked for that in one media article that I thought was comical because it was basically saying how bad it is that these allegations are out there because these groups like Source and them are complaining that they're spending so much money on lawyers to make sure they're in compliance with the law, but there's no pretext to go after them. Yeah, shame on us. We made you spend money to make sure you're following the law.
Glenn Beck
Now you know what it's. Now you know what it's like to be a business owner in America for everybody else. All right, back with Ryan in just a second. First, let me tell you about Relief factor. Sometimes pain hitches so gradually you don't even notice it at first. You just adjust how you sit, how you stand, how you move through your day, until one day you realize you've been negotiating with your own body for a long time. Relief factor is not about masking that problem or muscling through it. It is about addressing one of the most common causes of everyday pain, and that is inflammation. It's a daily supplement designed to be part of your life, not a quick, quick fix you reach for when you're in panic. You take it consistently every day over weeks. And when you do, people start to notice movement doesn't come with the same resistance it used to. Stairs are easier. Mornings are looser. The day doesn't feel like a series of small calculations about what might hurt. Relief Factor 100% Drug free targets inflammation that causes pain. So you move better, feel better, and actually enjoy life again. Try the three week quick start for just 1995. Go to relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief. Let's see if your neck's getting out of pain. 1, 804 relief relieffactor.com 10 seconds station ID. So Ryan, let me talk to you about the Palestinian Chronicle and that, that's, that is the organization that this guy was writing for, correct?
Ryan Morrow
That's right, yeah.
Glenn Beck
Okay.
Ryan Morrow
And the wife was working for, right.
Glenn Beck
They have a podcast called the Floodgate and it debuted in February. What, what is this podcast? Why is Floodgate?
Ryan Morrow
Sure, Floodgate is basically a reference to the October 7 attacks because those who support it, they kind of hint at it by referring to it as a legitimate military operation. And they'll say operation Al Aqsa flood being Operation Jerusalem Flood. So when you see these guys making like weird references to the flood and like, oh, let's just flood New York City for this protest, that it all comes from that it's a wink to their supporters that most people wouldn't realize. But to show the interconnected elements of all this, when it debuted in February, their guest was a pro Putin activist, almost certain Russian agent. He's being investigated for it now. And convicted pedophile Scott Ritter, the former UN inspector that some people might remember from under the Bush administration. He was a big anti war protester, but now he's much more openly like, he goes to Russia and talks about how great Putin is and he cheers Hamas and Hezbollah. So what we have found on a broader level is a, like a central node for the, what I call the global seditionist movement, where all these different ideologies kind of come together and work together. And this group that we have exposed and I think given very strong evidence of illegal activity for is at the center of that. And so there, there's more to come on this that we aren't releasing today, but there's definitely much more to come just from this one central node that we found, not to mention everything else that we found from working together.
Glenn Beck
Let me, let me ask you something. And it's unfair to, you know, have put you on the spot like this. So feel free to say, I don't, I don't know. But I have been wondering what, what is China and Russia spending in, in the United States to save Maduro and also Iran. I mean if Iran falls, they are in real trouble. Do you have any information or any. Are you seeing any influence here in the United States on those two topics that you can give any insight on?
Ryan Morrow
Oh yeah, for sure. So the dollar amount is obviously hard to come by. It's certainly millions of dollars. We know that just from one nonprofit profit called the People's Forum that was really instrumental in sparking the post 10-7- protests and riots actually. And so that's connected like this is publicly known. The New York Times report on it. Someone that is usually in China and does work with the Chinese government on propaganda. So the nonprofit sector is very much a harbor for the incitement of terrorism, the facilitating of terrorism, the type of stuff that if it was going on in Iran we would say that state sponsorship of terrorism. But you do it in the nonprofit sector of America and they call it charity. Yeah.
Glenn Beck
Let me ask you, we only have about 45 seconds. The money in Somalia, have we been actually able to trace that back to more than corruption but to Islamists?
Ryan Morrow
From what I can tell, certain definitely proven going to Al Shabaab in Somalia. The question is to what degree that whole scheme is an Islamist thing or it's a crime thing.
Glenn Beck
Right.
Ryan Morrow
And then you have people that are elements within there that that then shift it in those directions. That's something that we're going to be looking into and the Morrow Institute that basically what we're trying to do is take the research that your audience does and and basically weaponize. Weaponize your audience hopefully so that their research can make an impact. And through their volunteer as and through small donations we can do more like this.
Glenn Beck
Ryan, thank you so much. Ryan Morrow.com Ryan M A U R O Ryan Morrow.com he has joined us at Torch for our first special a answer epic special. It will be happening in March on torch@glenn beck.com you can find out all about it at glenn beck.com thank you Ryan. More in a minute. You know, most people don't think about heat. You don't think about the things that you need every day until the power goes out or a storm drags on longer than expected and it's too late to start problem solving. Then you're just looking for anything that works. That's where the Vesta heater from my Patriot supply makes so much sense. It's where it comes in and plays a real role. It's simple, it's self contained. It doesn't depend on electrical grids to do its job. No electricity, no extension cords. No complicated set up, just real reliable heat when everything else goes quiet. One thing I like about the Vesta heater is how practical it is. It's designed to heat in enclosed spaces, safely, efficiently, but it also is something that is built so you can cook on it in case you need to do more than heat. You actually need to warm up some food, you know, because, you know, the storm went on longer than you thought. No matter what the conditions are, if they're not ideal, the best part is right now you can get the Vesta and a bunch more preparedness gear as free gifts. All you have to do is order the winter survival kit from my Patriot Supply. Just go to my patriotsupply.com Glenn. See everything that is included. The offer is not going to last long, so go to my patriotsupply.com glenn. Go there now. My patriotsupply.com Glenn. We're going to talk a little bit about another special that has just been released@glennbeck.com on capital controls. We talk about that and your economy coming up. You know, about three years ago, I started feeling like I need to make a huge change in my life. You know, my biological clock started to tick. I'm like, I can't have babies. Well, I guess I can, but I might, you know, I might get hit by a bus in 15 years, in the next 15 years. And so I'm done. I'm kind of clocking out here. And when that hit me, you know, I started really prioritizing things differently in my life. And one of those things is the show and what I do every day. And I wanted to spend my time solely focused on finding ways to impact you and your mission, whatever that is, with information, education, history, etc. Etc. And we're releasing something today at glenn beck.com it is one of our, one of our specials, right?
Carol Roth
We're calling this one a deep dive.
Glenn Beck
Deep dive. Okay, so this is a deep dive on something that you don't, you've not heard before, called capital controls. Let me set this up in a relatable way. Let me play something that Mamdani's new tenant director, what she was saying just a couple of days ago, you might have heard her say this about how white people are going to have a different relationship with property rights. Listen to this. I think the reality is, is that.
Carol Roth
For centuries we've really treated property as.
Glenn Beck
An individualized good and not a collective good.
Carol Roth
And we are going to. And transitioning to treating it as a collective good and towards a model of shared equity. Will Require that we think about it differently.
Glenn Beck
And it will mean that families, especially.
Carol Roth
White families, but some POC families who.
Glenn Beck
Are homeowners as well, are going to.
Carol Roth
Have a different relationship to property than.
Glenn Beck
The one that we currently have. One of the most amazing things. Hello, Stalin. That's one of the most amazing things I have ever heard. Okay, so can they do that? You know, I don't. I don't know. We're going to talk to Carol Roth here about several things coming up in a few minutes, but what she's talking about is what's called a capital control. Now, I don't know if you can do it at the city level, but capital controls are something that you would hear on cnbc. And I explain what those are, because this. This deep dive that you can get right now@glenn beck.com I think it runs about an hour. It's a really good documentary that I did. And it. It was motivated by my grandfather saying to me, he lived through the Depression, son. If we would have just known what the rich people knew, we would have been able to protect ourselves and maybe not have been in the same situation that we were in during the Great Depression. Because the rich people, they knew things that we didn't know, okay? And nobody shared that. And that is stuck with me my entire life. And then, so I've been looking for things. What do the rich people know? You know, rich people are buying cars, you know, for a Ferrari just sold for, what was it, $65 million recently. Art is going for $200 million. The prices of things in intangible items going through the roof, property farms through the roof. That's because somebody knows something that you may not know. They're getting out of cash. They're getting out and getting into gold or bitcoin or land or art or collectibles or whatever it is, because they know capital controls are coming. So let me just play a real quick promo clip on Capital Controls. That is, you can find it right now at glenn beck.com it's all free, commercial, free. You can find it now@glenn beck.com Here it is. What do capital controls mean? It's the moment the exit doors lock.
Carol Roth
When you think of capital controls, it's pretty much exactly like it sounds. Instead of going into the free market and having the market make decisions on things like money and where it's flowing, it means that a government and or a central bank is making those decisions.
Glenn Beck
Let me tell you a story. Say you're going to a theater, and not just any theater. This One's very famous. You've been coming here your whole life. The seats are plush. The lights are always perfect. The shows are the best money can buy. But you go this night and something feels different. Something feels off. The ushers are acting nervous. The cast keeps glancing from backstage. Maybe you've heard rumors, just whispers at first. Something is wrong. I don't know. Maybe the building isn't sound. Foundation is cracking. And then suddenly you hear it click. It's quiet, but it is unmistakable. The sound of the exit doors locking. They are the sound of a nation realizing the show is over and locking the doors before too many people try to leave at once. That is what capital controls are. So this is important that you know this information, because you're going to hear it. And unless you. Unless you understand what they're saying, unless you're looking for these things, it's all going to be couched in. We're doing this for national security. We're just doing this to balance, you know, this or that with China, blah, blah, blah, whatever it is. But it. It. Capital controls don't come into play when people are worried. It comes into. When massive changes are coming. For instance, Mom, Donnie, that's a massive change. That's a capital control. Because of who you are, you can no longer spend your money the way you want to spend it. You're going to have a different relationship and the government's going to tell you what you can do with your money. And, you know, that's why I. I'm not in New York. We lived in New York. We got out of there. Cause I saw this coming and don't want to be a part of it. You won't want that to happen. I wouldn't live in New York. Um, but, you know, hey, to each his own. Go ahead. Maybe it won't happen, but I don't like the odds of being trapped there. And New York, you watch New York as it will start to collapse, will try to trap the money in New York. It will trap it in New York City. It will trap it in the state because it can't hemorrhage all that. You can have everybody moving out to Florida and Texas or wherever, because then what happens to the. The state and the city? You can't fund it anymore. So they trap all that money there. This is the way that they do it. So you know what the signs are. And then in the second part of the special, we went to excerpts experts on this economist, and then we put it also through three different AIs and we asked, what are the odds? We asked the human experts, we asked the AI experts, what are the odds in one year, three to five years, five years plus? Honestly, we looked at the results and it was terrifying because AI and human were exactly right, exactly alike. It was like they were working off each other's sheets. And what came back and I put it on the chalkboard is staggering. It is staggering. You need to know about this information. And this is. These are called deep dives. And we'll be doing these a lot throughout the year. It's, it's, you know, I've stopped doing the Wednesday night show because it was just too. I had to produce it every Wednesday. And so sometimes we were like, I don't know, what is the topic instead? Sometimes I'll go into a week and I'll be like, this topic, this topic, this topic. And we can create these deep dives of deep, quick understandings of something that is very important, and we don't have to produce it. We produce it when it's right, and we give it to you when it's time. And. And if you're a member of the Torch this month, it's free. I'm not asking for a credit card or anything just to try it out. I just want you to. What we're doing, and it's@glenn beck.com that's called capital Controls. Is that in the new section? So if you go to the Watch.
Carol Roth
Page right now on glenn beck.com it's featured right there on the Watch page and it's under the specials tray for right now. We'll reorganize all the names later as we produce more content.
Glenn Beck
But, yeah, and we're really grateful to everybody who is watching us on glenn beck.com and helping us. You know, I said to the insiders today because we've done something for the insiders during the radio program, and it is. It's. You're going to play a very important role. You already are. We're listening to you and we're building these things for you. And I'm saying this to you. I feel called to this work. I believe I'm in my last decade, decade and a half of being able to do these. These shows for you. And I want to serve you. I want to make your life more understandable. I want to cover the things that you're trying, you're wrestling with. I want to help you on those things. And so I'm depending on you to help us make this better. I rely on your feedback, but also we want to know what is it you want to understand? Now, there's a couple of things. We got a couple of suggestions. I have to just share these real quick. So funny. Marlene wrote in and Marlene, I love you. She says she's a long time, you know, subscriber to the Blaze. Etc, Etc. I've been with you forever. But she said, here's my suggestion. Replace your, your podcast, this, the radio show. Replace your podcast with lighter conversations between you and Stu and your team. Stop all the heavy talk and the, and the, the lectures on what's happening in the world and the history lessons I'd like to see turned off.

No, it's.
Carol Roth
I will try to inject more shallow conversations.
Glenn Beck
Thank you. I appreciate that. Okay, so I'm sorry, we're not going to do that. There's another one that I saw that I just don't think we're going to do. Keith wrote in and said, please back away for your from your praise for Abraham Lincoln and show him to. For the tyrant that he was. Heath, I don't think I'm gonna back away from my support of Abraham Lincoln. You know, I know this is weird because this comes up a lot in a very small circle. I've heard that usually Southerners and they look at Abraham Lincoln as an absolute tyrant. And he did do some things that, you know, in a civil war, you probably, you know, wouldn't want to do outside of a civil war. And I know the south viewed him as a tyrant, but I don't. I really don't. But I thank you for your suggestion anyway. There's a lot of great success suggestions that we will do. And if you have a topic that you want us to address or you can help us be better to serve, you let us know. You can find all of this information. All of these shows, including. I just saw Glenn, I just listened to Days of Ash, which is a series that I wrote. They run. They run about 10 minutes an episode, 10, 12 minutes an episode. Five episodes are out right now, another five are coming soon. And that's the end of the first season. To be 10. 10 episodes in these things each season. The second season is in production now. I'm writing it right now. And it is really good because it gets. It's really good, but it's a Dystopian, futuristic, you know, story about, you know, dystopian looking more light hearted. More light hearted. Content. Yes, Glenn, I just listened to Days of Ash. Really great. I think it's, I unfortunately think it's the way things are going to play out if we don't turn the ship around. Thanks for doing these series. You're waking people up. Aileen Alien, thank you so much for listening. I want you to try all of this stuff out. Tell us what you like, tell us what you don't like.

Could you talk a little bit more about raising taxes with red hair?
Glenn Beck
Is that possible? Can we know what, I'm going to do that right after I do my 10 minute slide. Sports. Deep sports analysis day. Yeah. First, most people don't realize how much, how much power is in the small recurring decisions that you make every month, especially the ones that feel automatic. Your phone service is one of those, it's a perfect example. It runs in the background in your life. You're, you know, it's, you just, you're making phone calls and texting and using social media etc, etc, but it's always running in the background and you probably never stop to question, you know what, where I'm paying an awful lot of money for this. Where's that money going? What do they actually believe? Do I agree with this company on really important things like you know, if they want to save horses, fine, save horses, you know, that's great and I applaud you for that. Who doesn't love horses? But when you're like, you know what, I want to fundamentally transform America or you know, I really believe mom Donnie is the guy or, or hey, more abortions the better. I really don't want to do business with you. And that's kind of, you're in business with a lot of people, a lot of companies like that. Is your cell service one of those companies? Patriot Mobile is the answer to that cancer. It's patriot mobile.com Beck, you're going to save money. They're the only Christian conservative mobile phone company service I think in the world and they stand by those values and they actually support the things you support. Patriot Mobile, they're completely transparent. You're gonna save money every month and you're gonna work with an American company that believes in the same things that you do.

Carol Roth
I mean, like, this dude has no be knocked over the head, like, hard.
Glenn Beck
More Glenn Beck. Next. Sorry. Welcome. We're glad you're here. We're just, we're just talking about capital controls. And I said to Stu, do you remember, I think it was in 2006, I found this story in the Wall Street Journal and it was like on page A21, a little teeny story. And I think it was John Conyers who had either suggested or passed pass this law where if you renounced your citizenship in America, you still had to pay taxes on 50% of everything that you made even outside of the country for five years. Totally reasonable proposal, right? And I remember coming into Stew and I'm like, they're trapping money. They're trapping money. They know something I don't know. And you're going to see that. You watch California, New York, they're going to start trapping money. You'll move away and California will say, yeah, you still have to pay taxes for the next five years because whatever reason, they'll try to do that. And please don't move to Texas or Florida. Find some other place. I hear New Jersey is wonderful this time of year.
Commercial/Promo Voice
I don't think that's going to help.
Glenn Beck
You very much, though. Well, maybe you can all gather together in New Jersey and prove to the other states that you're going to fix that one and not make it like New York or California. It's a training wheel state. What you need. Glambeck is on. Welcome to our ugly home. Reddit is back for a historically hideous season.
Carol Roth
It's our 100th ugly house.
Glenn Beck
This place is mayhem. That is impressive. And if these walls could talk. Do you cry a lot? I do. They have a lot to say. What in God's name is this pit? Don't get too close if you've seen the show. I'm scared of that. Ugliest house in America. Season premiere tonight at 8 HGTV. Pass it on. Crank the game. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Hello, America. We have a lot to get to this hour. I want to. I want to talk to you about how to watch what is going on in Iran because it is game changing. If that regime fails and falls and it looks like it's still gaining power, but it's, it's not obvious that it is going to fall this time, but it, it might. And I want to show why that is important and what to watch for in the news so you can be aware of, of really what's happening. The other thing is I, we have to talk about Greenland and what is happening with Green Greenland. We'll do that. But Carol Roth joins us because mom Donnie is going to make sure that every New Yorker can get into, you know, the World cup even though the World cup isn't in New York at all. I don't know how he would get the tickets for all the New Yorkers. And he's also talking about, about or at least one of his people talking about a new relationship with private property. That sounds like, I don't know, Stalin.

You will own nothing Carol Roth, the.
Glenn Beck
Perfect guest it is. Carol Roth joins us. The author of you will own nothing and you will like it. Former investment banker, like she likes to say, a recovering investment banker. Carol Roth joins me on Capital Control. The things that are headed for New York in 60 seconds. First let me tell you about Relief Factor. There's a difference between having pain and being limited by it. A lot of people don't realize they've crossed that line until their world starts really getting much smaller. You skip things, you modify plans, you move through the day a little more carefully than you used to. Even if you, you don't say it out loud. You, it might take you a while and then you realize, wow, my whole life is, has changed. Relief factor is designed to do and address what is happening under the surface, not just help you push through another day. It supports the body's response to inflammation which is at the root of most everyday kind of discomfort and pain and we just accept that as being normal. You know, it's I just getting older. No, no, no. This isn't a take it and forget it product. This is a daily half because it is important to let the body and enable the body to do what the body is supposed to do so you can have, you know, a longer life out of pain. Relief factor has a 100% drug free way to target inflammation that causes most of the pain so you can move better, feel better and actually enjoy life again. Three week quick start. Try it for three weeks. 1995 it's relief factory. 800 for relief. Take it exactly as directed and see if you're not the next one getting out of pain. 800 for relief 1800 for relief relief factor.com Carol I've released the the documentary that we did on on Capital Controls today. It was released at 8 o' clock this morning. Thank you for your help on that. It's nice to have a stable of experts like you that, that really get it and can explain what's going on. I wanted to have you on today because what's happening in New York is, is quite remarkable. And I think it is a form of capital controls. When a government says you're going to have a different relationship with private property, isn't that a capital control where they're saying you can't spend your money the way you want to spend your money?
Carol Roth
Yeah, I mean, certainly in terms of what a layman would consider a capital control, you know, economists have a very strict definition, but there are what we consider to also be de facto capital controls. And certainly what is happening in New York is reminiscent of, you know, any time socialists and communists come to power. And it's one of the things that's kind of the weird triangle that's going on right now is it also reminds me of what happened in Venezuela. If you think about Venezuela and the fact that they were producing 3 million barrels a day of oil and they were a very prosperous country. And once the socialists, the communists, whatever you want to call them, the ists, took over, productive capital no longer makes investment. And so what's the logical outgrowth of that? Well, we can see it. Their output is down at this point to less than a third of that. And their infrastructure is so decayed that if we even wanted to help them get back to where they used to be, it's going to take around $100 billion in investments and quite some time, probably five years or longer, to bring it back to where it was before. So when you think about what's happening in New York and you hear things like rent controls and we're going to put these controls in place, landlords can't charge as much money to make things more affordable. Well, the same thing is going to happen. There is no financial incentive to make the investments in that property, which means everything decays, which means you have a bunch of slums that, you know, maybe are theoretically affordable, but nobody actually wants to live in them. So no matter what they try to dictate, when they're pushing these controls down our throats, it doesn't take into. It doesn't have the same outcomes as the free market would. And it has these terrible impacts and effects, which is why we all lean into capitalism and free market principles and what's made us so proud.
Glenn Beck
So. So, Carol, can the, Can a mayor and city council do what they're talking about doing? I mean, you Know, you look at, look at Seattle, boy, they've screwed that place up. California, screwed that place up. But he is talking about full fledged collectivism, communism, really, where the state is saying, you can't live there because of who you are or whatever, and we're going to give that property to somebody else. I mean, can he do that?
Carol Roth
Well, you know, there's the common sense side of me and there's the reality, you know, of what is happening in the world. And the common sense would say, no, of course not. There's laws, there's a constitution that stuff like that can't happen. But we've seen the Constitution flouted. We've seen the general principles that the country was founded on, our rights and protections flouted so many times that they can certainly try. And I'm sure there are probably workarounds and things that they have, you know, in statues where they're going to say, well, you know, this wasn't up to code, or this wasn't, you know, following this rule. So we're not actually really seizing it. We're just saying, you're not following the rules. And going back to what I said, you know, if you are somebody who owns a property that, you know, it has rent control on it and you can't make the investment because you're not getting the market rent on it, and all of a sudden they say, well, you're not up to code. You know, you have all these fines. Are you going to make that investment? Probably not, because you're not going to get a return on it. You could use your capital more productively somewhere else. So then they say, well, you're in violation of these fines. So we're now going to come in as the government and we're going to take this over. We've certainly seen things that look like that all over the place. You know, can it be challenged? Maybe. But can it happen? I mean, it certainly looks like it's a possibility.
Glenn Beck
So, as if these things happen, New York is just going to go into a cesspool and you're going to see big money. I mean, the money that's not out now, it's going to flee, because it's not. It just doesn't want to be sucked into all of that. I can't imagine. Yesterday we played a clip of Mamdani talking about this, and he was talking about how, you know, if. If you're. If you're a landowner, you are, you know, you own apartments or you're renting things out to people that you know, there's all kinds of new rules coming your way. And I thought, I would never own a piece of property in New York. I would get out of there as soon as I can. Because it's not gonna be stacked even fairly, not just in my favor. It's not even gonna be stacked fairly for a capitalist. And at some point, if you drive enough people out, the city and the state will have to try to protect itself. And that's again where capital controls come in. And they'll say, you can't take your money out or you have to pay taxes for the next five years if you're moving out. Won't they try to trap money there?
Carol Roth
Well, you're seeing this happen real time in California. There's so many things to talk about in that little piece. So let me just start with the last one. They're trying this in California. They're trying to put in place a wealth tax, which we've talked about many times. Certainly something like, you know, seven or nine countries in Europe have abandoned since it was such a bad idea because capital is mobile. But they're trying to make it retroactive that if, you know, you are a citizen as of, I think was the end of 2025, beginning of 2026 of California, that you can't try to get around this rule, we're going to come after you anyway to try to take your wealth. So these are not theoretical things that could happen. These are proposals that are being put on table that are being led by people like Ro Khanna in California, who is the representative from Silicon Valley. His constituents are the tech bros, are the billionaires, are the people who put him in place. And then he is turning around and saying, well, guess what? You know, at the core, I'm still a communist, whether you put me in place or not. So we're seeing that in California. California, I can tell you, being from Chicago, we've seen the impact of this real time, not certainly directly capital control, but the bad policies that have driven out billionaires like Ken Griffin and the hole that that has left not only in terms of his tax revenue, his philanthropy, but all the jobs that went with him is this money that is no longer here as part of the tax base. And so the middle and working class now are having to pick up that difference. And people are shocked at how much they're having to carry because the people with money can take it somewhere else and they're left holding the bag.
Glenn Beck
I actually saw somebody say, how come he's not spending money in Chicago? Anymore because you drove him out. Literally drove him out. He'll take care of some other community. You didn't want him there, but you certainly want his money. It's amazing.
Carol Roth
Yes. And it's the fact that there is this level of economic illiteracy and that if you went up in front of a bunch of people or even members of the state representatives and you say, okay, which would you rather have, 90% of a pie or 50% of a pie? And they would actually give you that answer without knowing how big the pie is because they. You don't fundamentally understand that we're looking at trying to have less of a burden for everyone and grow the pie and make it a wonderful place to live. And these policies, New York is one that's staggering to me, Glenn, if you think about it, this is Wall Street. This is the financial capital of the United States. This is where the Fed monetary policy comes from. This is where all the banks are. This is the center of money in the United States. Now all of a sudden has a bunch of these communists who are proposing communist policy. It's not that easy to just pick up the Federal Reserve bank of New York and relocate that.
Glenn Beck
Good, let's abolish it. I'm sorry. All right.
Carol Roth
Amen to that. Amen to that.
Glenn Beck
That.
Carol Roth
But this is going to get really ugly.
Glenn Beck
Really ugly. Really ugly. And you'll see it move to Texas and Florida. Mark my words. Let me just play this. This is from Donnie just a few days ago. Listen to this. And I am also proud to announce that I will be signing an executive order directing HPD to work alongside the Department of Buildings, the newly invigorated Mayor's Office to protect tenants, the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, and our newly created Office of Mass Engagement to hold rental rip off hearings across all. We will hold these rental rip off hearings across all five boroughs within the first hundred days of this administration. New Yorkers will be invited to participate and to share the realities that animate their daily lives. I want these hearings to expose the ugly underbelly of our city. It wouldn't be bad if you were actually going after crime and, and things like that. But when you have a communist agenda, that is, that's nothing but a show trial of capitalism. It's just taking capitalism down. More with Kara Roth here in just a second. First, let me tell you about American financing. NMLS 182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well, qualified borrowers call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms. You know, most people, you know, don't get into financial trouble by being reckless. They get there slow, you know, just rising debt. You take care of the house, you can handle the car, you cover for emergencies. Little by little, high interest debt starts stacking up more and more and your breathing room gets smaller and smaller. And American financing, you know, what they do is help you step back and actually look at the whole picture, not just the next bill that is due. And they're a family owned company that specializes in helping people consolidate high interest debt and restructure their finances in a way that makes sense, you know, for real life. They're not talking about, you know, refinancing your, I mean, unless it's right for you, refinancing your whole loan, your home loan. They're saying, let's take some of that and take a new loan out maybe at 6% for $10,000 out of your, what you have saved in your, in your home. Leave your regular mortgage alone and then take that 6% interest and pay off those credit cards that are costing you 20% interest, knock that down to 6%. That gives you all kinds of breathing room. They'll find something that's right for you, and if there's not something right for you, they'll let you know, I don't have anything. It's all your decision and, you know, whatever you decide goes. They're not, they're not motivated, they're not getting paid by the banks if they put you into a loan. So they're working for you. Call American Financing Now America's Home for home loans. It's American Financing at 8009-0624-4080-0906-2440 or go to americanfinancing.net American Financing.net 10 seconds. Station ID. Carol, let's talk a little bit about Venezuela and Iran. And if you want to throw in Greenland, we can. What, what Donald Trump is doing, I think, is remarkable. If it works, he is rebuilding an entirely new system. So the Western Hemisphere is the sphere of influence for the next hundred years. He's rewriting everything and he has put oil and rare earth and all of the things we need to not only survive, but to thrive in the next century and to hold down Russia, China, Iran, North Korea. It's quite remarkable, at least the way I'm seeing it. Would you agree with that?
Carol Roth
I would 100% agree. This is one of the greatest things that is coming out of the Trump administration. You know, the Biden administration weakened America's position on the world stage and really didn't pay any attention to the national and economic security issues that we had in terms of our dependence on China for things like shipbuilding and making defense weapons and the like. And under that administration, there was further encroachment into our, not only our hemisphere but also into these countries that have these strategic resources. So when anybody says, oh well, you know, the US Just cares about oil, well, you know, what do you think it is that Iran cares about Russia or China? Everybody's there for the same reason. So the fact that they're paying attention here and taking steps to shore up the national security and the economic security, it's similar to what happened in Argentina when we talked about previously the swap line and making sure that we got China's influence out of that region. Now that's happening in Venezuela and it sounds like it's spreading to other areas as well.
Glenn Beck
So I'm looking at this, I mean, just with the gold in the ground in Venezuela, we don't own it, but if Venezuela is on our side, not China's side, you have a harder time building bricks. You have a harder time doing a gold backed currency and controlling all of it because you've now lost the gold that's in the ground in Venezuela. America has it. So there are little things, things like that that I think nobody is really talking about that is, is putting the brakes on destroying the American dollar and strengthening us to some degree on that. But it also, I'm worried that, you know, we're, we're backing these countries into a corner where pretty soon they're going to figure out, holy cow, Donald Trump is playing two win. And when somebody's back is up against the wall, they become very, very dangerous. Are you concerned about that at all?
Carol Roth
I think there are a few different ways that this can go. And kind of building on what you're talking about, the concerns not only about the gold in the ground, but the fact that China had lent tens of billions of dollars to Venezuela that now may not be paid back, I think these potentially could be tools to get China to the table to come up with some sort of what's been called a Mar a Lago accord, you know, a financial reset. Because obviously there are a lot of financial issues between the countries as well as with our country. And I think this may be a tool to get everybody to the table and to come to an agreement. Because remember, Donald Trump is a business person. He is art of the deal negotiations are his strength. And, you know, he's tried some other avenues, but this is another avenue that could get these countries to the table. That being said, these are not necessarily rational actors. So does that mean then all of a sudden we have now put, you know, China taking over Taiwan in play? I think that these are all possibilities, but the hope is that we get more of these countries to the table.
Glenn Beck
Yeah. And with the collapse of or the changing of the guard in Venezuela and the possible collapse in Iran, those are just. Those two things are significant, significant movement in toward America in a good way. Carol, thank you so much.

And he, I don't know how he did it, probably drinking. He's usually drunk. But anyway, he, he drove off. It was very easy to do. Drove off the side of this hill and it's a steep decline. And he ended up with the forerunner upside down in the top of one of the trees. There's no cell service. He was stuck there until we said, we haven't seen Caesar in a while. Where's Caesar? And we sent out a search party for him and that's where we found him. Rapid Radios, that, that's a great example of rapid radios and why we have them at the ranch now.

Glenn Beck
This is the Glenn Beck Program. I want to talk to you a little bit about Greenland, but I want to start in a really unusual place. I want to start with magic words. In fact, one magic word word, abracadabra. You say the magic word and it happens. Okay? You just have to. What's the magic word? Magic word is abracadabra. Poof. Bunny out of the hat. Whatever it is. Abracadabra is an actual. The root of it is an actual word. It's Aramaic. And I believe some of the roots can also be found in Hebrew. But in Aramaic it is avra cadavra. And you know, us westerners, we're all like me. We just mispronounce everything. We're like abracadabra. That's what he said. Uh, but it actually means, and I'm trying to remember this off the top of my head, abracadabra actually means something like it was created because I spoke it. I spoke it and it was created. Okay? That's I am. That I am. That's the power of God. That's not magic. That's believe it and it shall be. Okay? That's the way humans work. We are seeing a master magician, if you will, in action every day. Donald Trump knows the power of his words. He knows them. When I have talked to him about his safety, he stops me every time. Don't want to talk about it, Glenn. Don't want to talk about Mr. President. I just want to make sure. Are we. I don't want to talk about it. He will not put those things out. Believe me, he has others talking about it, but he does not want to put that kind of stuff out in the universe. He believes in the power of thought and the power of words. So why am I telling you about Abracadabra? Because have you noticed he says things over and over again and they seem to just happen. Couple of reasons. The power of his own words, the power of knowing what I want, saying it, believing it and then making it happen. Surrounding myself with people who are also believers in what I say. Because if we all believe it will happen, we are a failing empire. We are a crumbling nation. You know what, he never says that. And quite honestly, this week I don't feel like we are a fading empire or a crumbling nation or a second rate anything. I feel like we are on the verge of if this stuff works, we are on the verge of being a renewed nation with a hundred year story, completely new story that will be as amazing as the last hundred years. He's speaking it into existence. He keeps speaking something into existence, and that's Greenland. We need Greenland. We need Greenland. Greenland should be a 51st state. Greenland should be a protectorate. Greenland. You know what? We really need Greenland because of their rare earth minerals. I believe we do need Greenland. Not as a 51st state. Maybe as a protectorate, it would be nice. Not by force, not by military purchase. Maybe you could make everybody, you know, you could offer everybody there $10 million and what is it, 500 billion? You'd get green land and give everybody, Everybody. You get $10 million. Every citizen gets $10 million. What citizen is going to say no to that? And we're not going to control your country. You run your country whatever way you want, but you're a protectorate of ours right now. That's a really good deal for them and for us. If we bought it like we did in Alaska, at a trillion dollars, it's a very good deal for the United States. It has rare earth minerals, and it is strategically placed in such a place that it is essential for us if you are preparing for war, I believe, because this is what history teaches us. As empires begin to become unstable, and we all are. There is unlike any other time in human history, the Roman Empire is falling. Some other empire is coming up right now. It should be China coming up as we are declining. That's what everybody predicted. But China made all of the same stupid mistakes that we made. You know, financial and everything else. They're not coming up. It they're speak. Everybody's trying to speak that into existence, but it's not true. They're not coming up. But usually what happens is one empire comes down, the other one is rising. And somebody says in the rising empire, you better take them out before this gets ugly. Because it'll be, you know, their back will be against the wall and they don't want to be a failing empire. So take them. That's what we should see if China is rising. But I don't know if that's going to happen because everyone, for the first time in human history, every nation is collapsing for the same reasons at the same time. But again, if you cobble together enough power and we are weak, you would see Russia, you'd see. What did I say it was? Crink. China, Russia, Iran and North Korea crink. You would see that Axis power try to take the West. Okay, so the best thing you can do is build the arsenal for Democracy. That's what FDR did. That's what he said in 1940. We're going to build the arsenal of democracy. We're going to build ships for the rest of the world. We're going to build guns for the rest of the world. You know, when we were training our military in 1939, 1940, we were using broomsticks. They didn't. We didn't even have rifles for our military. Okay, you could bring your rifle in from home to Use it and train with that. You didn't a lot of our soldiers use their own rifles at the very beginning? Because we didn't. We weren't prepared. He is preparing us for a couple of things. A digital war where we are fighting who's going to win AI A currency war whose currency is going to be dominant. Who's going to actually be responsible for the financial well being of at least the Western world. And I think a hot war. And so he is taking all of the assets that we need. Oil, energy, that's coal, electricity, nuclear, all kinds of tech. Not just AI but military tech. Did you see what he said yesterday? He said yesterday we have a problem with our military industrial complex. It's too slow. Hurry up. He is preparing for any eventuality. And he's carving out not an empire, I don't think. I think he is carving out the Western world and making strategic partnerships like he did with Argentina. We made them a big loan because they were struggling. We're not trying to control Argentina. I don't want to control Argentina, but I want them as an ally. Same with Venezuela. I don't want to run your country but I want you as an ally. And you know Cuba, I don't want you. I. No communism here, not in this sector. The other reason why I think Greenland wouldn't be as important if NATO wasn't useless. I think he has written off Europe. I have. I don't know about you, but I've written off Europe. Europe's not going to be. Not going to be any help. They're going to be a nuclear armed Islamic caliphate in 10 years. If they don't change their ways, that's what it will be. That's not helpful. Denmark. Denmark's not Denmark anymore. Denmark what is Denmark it is. All of these countries are collapsing. They are absolutely delusional. They are becoming a totalitarian European Union that is going into a fascistic sort of way. Complete control, complete anathema to freedom is. At least that's their plan with the W E F and he's written that off. We're not going to be allies with you guys. We're not. You're. You're going to separate yourself from us. We're not going to. And so I don't want you to have all of those strategic reserves. We're willing to buy them from you. We're willing to buy Greenland. We're willing to make them a protectorate. They can run their own thing. But they're not going to Europe. They're coming here. And I'M really torn. We just did a. Jason, do you have the Glenn AI I. Do you want that now? Yeah, go ahead. Let's play a clip of this. This is from today. It'll come out later today. Here it is, the icy keystone in America's new strategy. You probably didn't wake up this morning asking yourself, what's going on in Greenland? I get that. But by the end of this episode, you're going to be wondering why we've ignored it for so long. Because what's happening up there, that icy, rugged rock floating quietly at the top of the world is starting to shape the future of American power in ways that most of us aren't even talking about yet. Okay, this is the topic of Glenn AI Glen AI is proprietary technology that we have developed and I'm spending a lot of money on R and D to make it the premier technology for. For us at least it has 30 years of everything I've ever said, everything I've ever written. And it. We can internally ask it, tell me about Greenland, what, what is right, what do you know historically, etc, etc. And it will produce a like a 10 minute podcast for you to give a deeper thing on something I don't have time to record myself, but I look it out. I mean, I actually oversaw that one myself. And that's just giving you a tutorial on what is this argument really about. Why is it important? Is goes into a very clear thing that I want to make very clear. None of this matters if we betray who we are. None of this matters if we have all the rare earth minerals and all of the oil and all of the power in the west and everything else. None of it matters if we don't have the Constitution, if we are not a nation of laws, but we're a nation that just says, well, we need it this time. Be very, very careful. No, there are no exceptions to the rules of the Constitution. So I lay out in that, these are things we must never violate. These are things he must not do to get those rare earth minerals. And here are some things he can do. Like I said, I think we should buy it. I think we could be a protectorate. But they should. We should negotiate with them. We could buy it like we bought Alaska, and it would be at really almost any price at this point. What's another trillion dollars? Nothing when you have nothing. But we should buy it. It's a great investment if they want to sell it, but we cannot send our military in. We can't take it. It would violate all of Our principles, but it is important to the strategy. If we want another American century and you want the Western world to survive.

Glenn, I have a question. Why do you suppose Greenland and Denmark appear to be more threatened by Trump trying to make Greenland a protectorate than China or Russia invading? I don't understand why they appear to be more threatened by that than actual, actual enemies.
Glenn Beck
Because I think, I think the world, the Western world, especially European, is, is so far gone and so, so deeply down the road of fascism, authoritarianism, you know, no freedom of speech. We've got to control this, that, that China's model looks much better to them than the messy freedom model because they're collapsing and they know what their solution is as they collapse. More control. More control. Shut the people down. Corral the people. Don't let the people talk, arrest the people. All of these things that is in the wheelhouse of China and, and, and freedom is messy. You don't know how it's all going to work out. They're so afraid of losing anything, they will compromise with any. I mean, look at, look at what the King of England now, Charles, he is playing footsie with the, the Islamists of England. Do you think the Islamists are going to love the Royal Family? He's playing footsie with, with bringing people in from parts of the world. You know, the reason why Elizabeth survived, why, why Queen Victoria survived when all of the others were losing their heads. The reason why she survived is because the English people are different, the culture is different. They, they're not. They, they tolerate an awful lot and they're into their heritage, et cetera. You, you, you supplant that. You take that and rip that out and you replace it with people of a different culture. They're going to round up the Royal family and they will end up like the Romanovs. But they're playing footsies with them. They're, they're, they're fine with all of it. They don't, they're just blind to what history would teach you. More in a minute. Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. We spent a lot of time talking about big decisions, elections, policy, headlines. But much of the leverage in your life comes from the small decisions that you make, the ones that renew automatically in the background. Your phone service is one of those choices. And for years, the industry has suggested you just shouldn't care who you're doing business with as long as your phone works. Just pay the bill, don't ask questions, and definitely don't expect the trans. Don't expect transparency. Patriot Mobile takes on a different approach. They built a company around the idea that service and price and principles don't have to be separate conversations. You can have reliable nationwide coverage, straightforward plans and business that's open about what it stands for, all at the same time. Your number can stay the same. Your coverage is there when you need it. The only thing that will change is who you're doing business with. And you know whether you're okay with having that being a thoughtful decision instead of just default. Go to patriotmobile.com beck or call 972 Patriot 972 Patriot. Use a promo code.

There's an ice related shooting in Minneapolis. There's a crackdown in Minneapolis. It's going to get ugly there. And also, let me just play some video real quick. This is one of the uprisings in Iran last night. Two cities now have fallen. To the protesters, this is major, major. We should be praying for the safety and for the freedom of all of the Persians and all those who live in Iran and want to be free. It's a possibility and it changes the world overnight if it happens.
Episode: Trump's New 'Allied Powers' Are Making Our Enemies PANIC
Date: January 7, 2026
Host: Glenn Beck (Blaze Podcast Network)
Guests: Ryan Mauro, Carol Roth
This episode centers on Glenn Beck’s thesis that under President Trump’s administration, the United States is rapidly reconfiguring global alliances and power structures. Rejecting the narrative of American decline, Beck argues that Trump is building a new “allied power” bloc to counter the growing axis formed by China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea (dubbed “CRINK”). The episode features an in-depth analysis of recent global events—including U.S. military actions, the geopolitics of energy, and financial stability—joined by counterterrorism expert Ryan Mauro and financial commentator Carol Roth, both of whom provide exclusive insights into security risks and economic trends gripping America and the West.
