Glenn Beck (67:33)
You know what I think is really a positive thing is that there are people that are being honest, people like Bill Maher, who Bill and I don't agree on very much. And, and it's interesting to me that he is, I mean he's always had flashes of common sense and he does not like Donald Trump. He doesn't like any of this stuff. So we disagree. And this the kind of person that I like to have a conversation with because right now he's being reasonable on a lot of things including the Islamification of, of the Democratic Party and the, you know, the socialistization, if you will, of the Democratic Party, how it is becoming an Islamist fascist or socialist communist kind of entity. And he is warning about, you know, the new mayor of New York. He's warning about the new, you know, mayoral candidate in Minneapolis. And I think these guys are going to win and it will only be our, it will be our fault if we don't pay attention to what is happening right now. And I think the, the socialists have made socialism neat through school. They have taught the youth in the country nothing about capitalism, true capitalism or free market systems. They've never taught them anything about that that has been positive. They haven't talked to him about, you know, individual rights that doesn't exist. This is all collective stuff. And then on top of it, you have the Islamo fascists who have come in and deadened you to the point to where you can't say anything against Islam. Otherwise you're, you know, a hate monger that needs to be stopped and banished from society. I know Muslims who are very nice people, but there is a difference between somebody like Dr. Zudi Jasser who is not an Islamist, he's a practicing Muslim, but it's an updated Islam. It's one that doesn't say, hey, kill all the Jews and you know, it's okay to marry a nine year old girl. That's all dark age stuff. And you combine that with the medieval purging that happens during a communist society or a deep, deep socialist society, you're in real trouble. I want you to read a book. I just started reading something this is, it's called the Curse of Goliath or Goliath's Curse and it's by Dr. Luke Kemp, he's professor at the University of Cambridge. And he has studied the rise and fall of over 400 civilizations. He and I won't agree on everything, you know, about what the, you know, who's who in the book, etc. Etc. However, I completely agree with so far, as far as I've gotten with where he is on the collapse of human civilization. He says it's not just possible, it is absolutely inevitable because we are repeating the same ancient errors, except this time we're doing it with nukes and AI and a fragile global web that is barely holding all of this together. And he says, you know, the civilizations don't collapse because the gods are angry. They, they don't fall because of one bad harvest or a crooked king. They collapse because of a pattern that is seen time and time again. Patterns of corruption. Why does it matter if Obama was involved in this scandal? Why was. Why does it matter if Hillary Clinton or Brennan or anything else? Everybody in the media is telling you, a, it's not true, that's corruption. B, that it doesn't matter if it is true. It does matter because there's patterns of corruption. They are coupled with patterns of greed, greed, of power or money, and patterns of engineered dependence. So when you have engineered dependence, you have inequality. That I believe is also engineered. And moral decay, which again, I also believe has been engineered. It doesn't become prophecy that something is going to fall. It becomes mathematics. It's history. And if we don't change the course of our own future, we become history. So in the book, he talks about the things that all of these civilizations have in common. Rome, the Mayas, the Imperial China, the Ottoman Empire. See if any of this sounds familiar. They were ruled by elites who hoarded the wealth, they centralized the power and they crushed any dissent. Then they insulated themselves in luxury while the foundations rotted beneath them. Does that sound familiar at all? Camp calls these people Goliaths. They were not built on strength, but on brittle systems. And all of their empires looked invincible until one crack brought the whole thing down. And the people at the top almost never saw it coming. Or if they did, they didn't care because they thought they were going to be okay. The perks of the palace were intoxicating right up until the point the roof caved in. Now, if you can't see that happen, why aren't people in Washington? They surely can see this stuff. Why do they deny it? Or why do they say it's not happening? Because the perks of the palace are intoxicating. Look around. The ones that were talking about fighting for the little man in Texas, leaving and going to Illinois. This is something we're going to get into next hour because if it wasn't so tragic, it would be hysterical. It would be a comedy. How did they get out of Texas? They took private jets. Look at the elites that take private jets to fly to climate summits while telling farmers, you can't use your tractor. How Wall street will hoard the wealth while Main street can't afford a gallon of milk. The tech oligarchs that are engineering your habits, governments that are engineering your reality. Do you know that under Obama, we passed a law that allows our government to do propaganda on you? Did you know that? Why hasn't that been repealed? Now, Kemp, in his book, he points out the three, three or four, two or three fatal cracks that are forming. And let me just give two of them here. The elite violence not just with muskets or sword, but with nuclear arsenals and digital kill switches, okay? The fragile systems, meaning no one today can return to the land when Amazon prime shuts off. Our food, our medicine, our energy is dependent on systems that most of us don't even understand. And then you introduce AI. Our scientists that are creating AI don't understand how it works. And then you have the coup de grace. You have what's on top, the personalities at the top. And he says, this is the dark triad. They're either narcissists, psychopaths, or all Machiavellian. Now, he says Trump is a narcissist, Vladimir Putin is a psychopath, and President Xi in China is Machiavellian. But you look at the pattern. It's in every country. It's in every country, and yet we seem to be handing them more and more power. Why? Because they're engineering our reality. Because they have the press by the throat. So I want you to read this book, but I don't want you to get depressed by it, because here's the thing, you can do something about it. We have to stop admiring the problem. And I'm giving this lecture to me more than you. Stop. Stop pointing out the problem every day without saying, okay, here's what we can do to rebuild. Because we're in the storm right now, and when the storm passes, what's going to be left? We have to start building brick by brick right now. Personal resilience. We have to break free from the system's trap. We have to grow our own food, build our own community networks, restore our local economies. Those things have to be done. We have to restore cultural Sanity. Stop worshiping the Goliaths. Because the elites don't save civilizations. They never have. It's the people that save civilization. Who was it that saved the civilization? Was it fdr? Or was it the resilience of our American people? Who won the war? Who fought the war? Was it the generals? Was it Winston Churchill? Or was it the people? People saved civilizations. The other thing we have to rebuild is our historic literacy. Nobody knows what came before us. Nobody. Nobody seems to care. So when you don't know the history, you don't know the good things. You don't know the bad things. So you don't know the pattern. There is a pattern to life. You know, let me write that down. Somebody. Sarah, write that down for me and remind me after the show, I got to do something on patterns, because there is a pattern. It's what we look at. When you watch tonight's show, you will see a pattern. That's what I'm good at. I connect dots because I see a pattern of behavior, and I'm like, wait a minute. That actually fits more over with this pattern. And when you can see the pattern, everything starts to make sense. We have to learn the pattern of history and then teach it to our children. And then there's spiritual clarity, you know, evil. When I was a kid, evil showed up in horns. You know, it was in a red suit, and it had a tail and it had horns. And it seemed, you know, this is again, my generation. We missed the evil of World War II. Nobody paid attention to the evil that was Communist Russia, you know, or Pol Pot. Nobody saw that. So evil became like this cartoon character. But it's not. We're seeing it now. It's not showing up in horns. Sometimes it shows up in Armani suits, or sometimes it shows up as a glowing screen. And the last thing we have to do is build parallel structures. Supply chains, governance, but most importantly, media and education. That's why I started the Blaze. That's why I'm so proud of the Blaze and what it has accomplished and how it has opened the doors for, you know, people like Ben Shapiro and Megyn Kelly and all of these people that came in. Nobody believed it could be done. Nobody believed you could become as big as you were on television by doing it on the Internet. We broke that door open. You helped build that network, and now it's time to turn the page. It's time to continue to do that. But the pattern has been set now. Now a new pattern has to be cut, marked out, and laid. And that is Education. We have got to grab education back in any and every way we possibly can in our schools, in our home schools, in ourselves, with our children. But we have to know the history of America, the world, so we can see the. The pattern and then build the structures. Not to replace America, but to remind her of who she is. Most importantly, I want to stop concentrating on Goliath. My job has been for 25 years now to concentrate on Goliath, to show you the Goliaths. I really, truly believe. My job now is to focus on David. Because the fall of Goliath is not just the fall of Goliath. It's the moment that David rises back in just a minute. Israel is a land of history and faith and miracles, but right now, it is also a land of heartache. You see the headlines, you know what they are going through. And behind every headline, there is a family. A mom who can't find milk, a father who is out of work because his shop was destroyed, an elderly survivor who is terrified now to leave the apartment. And in that moment of need, the fellowship is there. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on the ground in Israel for decades, serving the most vulnerable people in the country. The poor, the elderly, the orphans, those who can't flee or fight. And they bring them food and water and medicine and shelter and hope. And they're able to do it because of people like you, people who care, people who stand in the gap when everything else feels uncertain, when everyone else has turned their backs. It's people like you that still stand up and say, what can I do? When the world grows dark, God's people shine brighter. That is our job. Please, I want you to check out ifcj.org see their work, see if you want to help stand with Israel. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews become a part of it now. IFCJ.org that's IFCJ.org the media is peddling slop these days. Better stay sharper. What is, is you might end up taking it on the chin. Well, that's just nasty. Glenn Beck is back in a sec. You know, we're just talking about this new book and, and, and, and it's about Goliath and how, you know, these empires fall over and over and over again. This, this professor, he did a study of, I think, 400 different civilizations. And, and he shows the pattern, and the pattern, you know, is there. And Sarah said to me, just off the air, she said, you know what you just talked about? Models, the same kind of monologue you did about men being weak. You know, they have to step up and remember who they are. And when she said that, I realized, you know what? It wasn't the men who fought Goliath. It was the youth. Because the youth knew what the older people had forgotten or dismissed, and that was God. And they knew where their strength was. They weren't afraid of Goliath. They had more faith in God. And that is exactly, I think, what's going to happen this time around. Look for the Davids and empower them. Thank you so much, by the way, Jason, for sitting in. We have one more hour. Let me tell you about home title lock. In a world where artificial intelligence and cybercrime are advancing faster than most people can keep up, criminals have found a new way to strike. And they're going after your home's title. They forge your signature on a form and then they stamp it with a fake notary seal. They file it with the county. It costs them a very small fee, like 25 bucks. And that's that. Then your house is there. I mean, it is really frighteningly easy. When was the last time you checked if your title was still your title? If the answer is never, that's exactly what the criminals are hoping for. Please. AI is changing the world at a blistering pace. Don't let it change the name on your home title while you're not looking. Go to hometitle lock.com. that's hometitlelock.com use the promo code Blaze. You can't be everywhere watching everything.

All right, final hour of the program coming up in just a second. And by the way, thanks for listening, Sam. Down the road where shadows hide Feel the dark on every side Stand your ground when times get down Gotta face the dog and embrace the fire the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Well, hello, America. There are some amazing things that were said, said yesterday about the Democrats in Texas and gerrymandering. I can't say Democrats in Texas, the Democrats from Texas who are in Illinois and New York and Massachusetts, you know, all those bastions of democracy and a strong republic. We're gonna get to that here in just a second. And I want to explain why this is so important, why this has to be watched and the unbelievable hypocrisy just so you can arm yourself with some facts because most people don't know what this even means, you are way ahead of the curve, obviously, but let me just arm you with some facts for your friends. We'll do that here in just a second. First, let me tell you about Ruff Greens. Your dog is not just a pet. He's a part of the family, a companion, a guardian, a source of joy and unconditional love. And you do everything you can to take care of them. I saw in the opening segment here, there's a moment where I'm walking up the hill of the ranch with my dog, Uno, and just it caught me again. Uno's been gone now for a few months, and it is like losing a family member. And when you have that dog that is so loyal and so good, you just want to take care of them as much as you can. And that's why we wanted rough greens. I was just wanting rough greens, honestly, at the beginning, just out of frustration because Uno wouldn't eat. And we tried everything to get him to eat, and he just wouldn't. He'd always been like that. Well, then we found rough greens. And I asked the doctor that actually came up with the rough greens. I said, so tell me, Dennis, will this just make him eat? Will it help him eat? He's like, absolutely. He'll love the stuff, but it's really good for him. And I'm like, okay, well, I think he's really healthy anyway, but as long as it'll make him eat. That's why I started. And then I saw a difference in him. It was so much, so much good stuff in there. It made him a healthier, happier dog, and he would eat. So it made me happy, too. Get the free Jump Start trial bag for your dog today. It's a $20 value. You'll get it free.

Okay, I want to play a couple of sound bites that came out yesterday. First of all, let me start here with cut 7. This is a state representative from Texas, Ron Reynolds. He went on CNN and said he wasn't worried about anything that the state of Texas was claiming to do to him because they were fleeing the state because they're on the right side of history. Here's cut 7.
