Help Glenn spread the message of Restoring Love!

Hello America,

In just one weekend, you and I made America a better place.

We packed Texas Stadium to the rafters and our positive message of love, hope, charity and FREEDOM is still reverberating across the country!

Just look at what we accomplished in one weekend alone:

Because of YOU, we raised over one million meals for the homeless and delivered them to 12 cities.

Because of YOU, we repaired roofs and installed air conditioners in churches nationwide that had suffered disrepair for years.

Because of YOU, fences were mended and painted, parks were cleaned, the elderly were cared for, and millions were inspired by our outpouring of love and charity!

If you were there with us in Texas -- or with us in spirit -- please accept my heartfelt thanks on behalf of the entire Mercury One family, and everyone who was touched by the outpouring of our love and charity.

But now comes the hard part…and we talked about this on Sunday. Now it’s up to you and me to keep this incredible, wonderful thing going.

It isn’t enough to roll into Texas Stadium for a day, and then leave and forget about everything we accomplished…everything we prayed for…the firm commitment we made to each other and our country.

Just like Presidents George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and the venerable Dr. Martin Luther King, you and I are called to be people of MERIT who push ourselves every day to build on our unique American inheritance.

That’s why I’m asking you to help me build on what we started in Texas by making a tax-deductible contribution of $15, $20, $35, $50, or the most generous amount you can afford, to Mercury One right now.

Your gift will help Mercury One expand our mission to work with churches, charities, faith-based groups, businesses and entrepreneurs to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, provide relief to victims of disaster, and MUCH MORE.

AND if you contribute $35 or more right now, you’ll become an official member of our Mercury One family. To thank you for your generous support, I’ll send you our beautiful, high gloss Badge of Merit lapel pin.

The Badge of Merit is rooted deep in our nation’s founding history. During the Revolutionary War, General George Washington honored three of his soldiers who displayed “extraordinary fidelity and essential service” with the Badge of Merit.

Your Badge of Merit symbolizes your unique leadership role within our Mercury One family. I hope you’ll wear it with pride, so that others can recognize your exceptional commitment to your fellow man, your country and our American freedom!

As a new Mercury One member, you’ll also receive a

    FREE subscription to Mercury One’s monthly e-newsletter and our daily Mission Report.

This is the same report I read every morning to get a clear view of what’s happening in America and around the world.

I firmly believe you and I can accomplish anything when we’re guided by faith, love, charity and the road-map laid out for us by our Founding Fathers in the Constitution.

Our Restoring Love event in Texas is over…but our mission is just beginning!

We won’t be pushed around by politicians and bureaucrats who say that charity flows from high taxes and big government!

We’re capable people! We’re charitable people! We’re people of merit!

Please join the Mercury One family today, and help us create a patriotic, charitable movement that has lasting value.

If we do that, we can restore America to the greatness our Founders envisioned!

Thank you for your prayers, your inspiration and your willingness to lead.

Laus Deo,

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.S. You and I share a fervent belief that if we want smaller government, then we need to show the White House, Congress and all of America that there are hard-working, honorable people LIKE US who are willing to roll up our sleeves and do the work!

Please help our mission today by making a tax-deductible contribution to Mercury One for $15, $20, $35, $50, or the most generous amount you can afford. Your gift will help us expand our patriotic, charitable mission to every city in America.

AND, if you contribute $35 or more, you’ll become an official Mercury One member and receive a Badge of Merit lapel pin, a free subscription to our newsletter, and much more! Thank you again for your leadership.

The West is dying—Will we let enemies write our ending?

The blood of martyrs, prophets, poets, and soldiers built our civilization. Their sacrifice demands courage in the present to preserve it.

Lamentations asks, “Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by?”

That question has been weighing on me heavily. Not just as a broadcaster, but as a citizen, a father, a husband, a believer. It is a question that every person who cares about this nation, this culture, and this civilization must confront: Is all of this worth saving?

We have squandered this inheritance. We forgot who we were — and our enemies are eager to write our ending.

Western civilization — a project born in Judea, refined in Athens, tested in Rome, reawakened in Wittenberg, and baptized again on the shores of Plymouth Rock — is a gift. We didn’t earn it. We didn’t purchase it. We were handed it. And now, we must ask ourselves: Do we even want it?

Across Europe, streets are restless. Not merely with protests, but with ancient, festering hatred — the kind that once marched under swastikas and fueled ovens. Today, it marches under banners of peace while chanting calls for genocide. Violence and division crack societies open. Here in America, it’s left against right, flesh against spirit, neighbor against neighbor.

Truth struggles to find a home. Even the church is slumbering — or worse, collaborating.

Our society tells us that everything must be reset: tradition, marriage, gender, faith, even love. The only sin left is believing in absolute truth. Screens replace Scripture. Entertainment replaces education. Pleasure replaces purpose. Our children are confused, medicated, addicted, fatherless, suicidal. Universities mock virtue. Congress is indifferent. Media programs rather than informs. Schools recondition rather than educate.

Is this worth saving? If not, we should stop fighting and throw up our hands. But if it is, then we must act — and we must act now.

The West: An idea worth saving

What is the West? It’s not a location, race, flag, or a particular constitution. The West is an idea — an idea that man is made in the image of God, that liberty comes from responsibility, not government; that truth exists; that evil exists; and that courage is required every day. The West teaches that education, reason, and revelation walk hand in hand. Beauty matters. Kindness matters. Empathy matters. Sacrifice is holy. Justice is blind. Mercy is near.

We have squandered this inheritance. We forgot who we were — and our enemies are eager to write our ending.

If not now, when? If not us, who? If this is worth saving, we must know why. Western civilization is worth dying for, worth living for, worth defending. It was built on the blood of martyrs, prophets, poets, pilgrims, moms, dads, and soldiers. They did not die for markets, pronouns, surveillance, or currency. They died for something higher, something bigger.

Yet hope remains. Resurrection is real — not only in the tomb outside Jerusalem, but in the bones of any individual or group that returns to truth, honor, and God. It is never too late to return to family, community, accountability, and responsibility.

Pick up your torch

We were chosen for this time. We were made for a moment like this. The events unfolding in Europe and South Korea, the unrest and moral collapse, will all come down to us. Somewhere inside, we know we were called to carry this fire.

We are not called to win. We are called to stand. To hold the torch. To ask ourselves, every day: Is it worth standing? Is it worth saving?

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Pick up your torch. If you choose to carry it, buckle up. The work is only beginning.

Stop coasting: How self-education can save America’s future

Coasting through life is no longer an option. Charlie Kirk’s pursuit of knowledge challenges all of us to learn, act, and grow every day.

Last year, my wife and I made a commitment: to stop coasting, to learn something new every day, and to grow — not just spiritually, but intellectually. Charlie Kirk’s tragic death crystallized that resolve. It forced a hard look in the mirror, revealing how much I had coasted in both my spiritual and educational life. Coasting implies going downhill. You can’t coast uphill.

Last night, my wife and I re-engaged. We enrolled in Hillsdale College’s free online courses, inspired by the fact that Charlie had done the same. He had quietly completed around 30 courses before I even knew, mastering the classics, civics, and the foundations of liberty. Watching his relentless pursuit of knowledge reminded me that growth never stops, no matter your age.

The path forward must be reclaiming education, agency, and the power to shape our minds and futures.

This lesson is particularly urgent for two groups: young adults stepping into the world and those who may have settled into complacency. Learning is life. Stop learning, and you start dying. To young adults, especially, the college promise has become a trap. Twelve years of K-12 education now leave graduates unprepared for life. Only 35% of seniors are proficient in reading, and just 22% in math. They are asked to bet $100,000 or more for four years of college that will often leave them underemployed and deeply indebted.

Degrees in many “new” fields now carry negative returns. Parents who have already sacrificed for public education find themselves on the hook again, paying for a system that often fails to deliver.

This is one of the reasons why Charlie often described college as a “scam.” Debt accumulates, wages are not what students were promised, doors remain closed, and many are tempted to throw more time and money after a system that won’t yield results. Graduate school, in many cases, compounds the problem. The education system has become a factory of despair, teaching cynicism rather than knowledge and virtue.

Reclaiming educational agency

Yet the solution is not radical revolt against education — it is empowerment to reclaim agency over one’s education. Independent learning, self-guided study, and disciplined curiosity are the modern “Napster moment.” Just as Napster broke the old record industry by digitizing music, the internet has placed knowledge directly in the hands of the individual. Artists like Taylor Swift now thrive outside traditional gatekeepers. Likewise, students and lifelong learners can reclaim intellectual freedom outside of the ivory towers.

Each individual possesses the ability to think, create, and act. This is the power God grants to every human being. Knowledge, faith, and personal responsibility are inseparable. Learning is not a commodity to buy with tuition; it is a birthright to claim with effort.

Charlie Kirk’s life reminds us that self-education is an act of defiance and empowerment. In his pursuit of knowledge, in his engagement with civics and philosophy, he exemplified the principle that liberty depends on informed, capable citizens. We honor him best by taking up that mantle — by learning relentlessly, thinking critically, and refusing to surrender our minds to a system that profits from ignorance.

The path forward must be reclaiming education, agency, and the power to shape our minds and futures. Every day, seek to grow, create, and act. Charlie showed the way. It is now our responsibility to follow.

If they thought the murder of Charlie Kirk would scare us into silence, they were wrong!

If anything, Turning Point will hit the road louder than ever. On Monday, September 22, less than two weeks after the assassination, Charlie's friends united under the Turning Point USA banner to carry his torch and honor his legacy by doing what he did best: bringing honest and truthful debate to Universities across the nation.

Naturally, Glenn has rallied to the cause and has accepted an invitation to join the TPUSA tour at the University of North Dakota on October 9th.

Glenn's daughter honors Charlie Kirk with emotional tribute song

MELISSA MAJCHRZAK / Contributor | Getty Images

On September 17th, Glenn commemorated his late friend Charlie Kirk by hosting The Charlie Kirk Show Podcast, where he celebrated and remembered the life of a remarkable young man.

During the broadcast, Glenn shared an emotional new song performed by his daughter, Cheyenne, who was standing only feet away from Charlie when he was assassinated. The song, titled "We Are One," has been dedicated to Charlie Kirk as a tribute and was written and co-performed by David Osmond, son of Alan Osmond, founding member of The Osmonds.

Glenn first asked David Osmond to write "We Are One" in 2018, as he predicted that dark days were on the horizon, but he never imagined that it would be sung by his daughter in honor of Charlie Kirk. The Lord works in mysterious ways; could there have been a more fitting song to honor such a brave man?

"We Are One" is available for download or listening on Spotify HERE
