Behind the Scenes Video: 'What Matters Most' to You?

What are you passionate about? What matters to you the most?

The team behind TheBlaze and the Glenn Beck Program joined Glenn today in this behind-the-scenes video to share their thoughts on life's most important subjects.

“I think it takes all of us putting our little piece of the puzzle down to be able to see the mosaic of what’s really happening. But the secret is passion,” said Glenn. “What gets you up in the morning?”

Australian TYRANTS Want to JAIL Elon Musk for THIS?!

Australia has demanded that Elon Musk remove a video from X not just in Australia, but around the world. Musk has so far refused to remove the video, which shows a Muslim teenager attacking Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel during a church service, from X completely. But Australia's Prime Minister has blasted Musk as an "arrogant billionaire" and an Australian Senator has called for Musk to be "jailed" for his resistance. So, why such a harsh response? Are they trying to downplay Islamic extremism? Or are they trying to "memory hole" something else..?

GLENN: So there was an event that happened in Australia. And a Muslim come into a church, where a Greek Orthodox priest, his name is Mar Mari. Bishop. Mar Mari was preaching.

And somebody tried to stab him. Now here's the video. That that -- of that stabbing. Because it was caught in the middle of a service.

Okay?

So he's just -- he's blessing the sacrament. Or whatever he was doing at the time.

He's looking down at the altar. And a -- an Arab manly comes up, with a knife, and stabs him in the head, repeatedly. Until he is -- he is held.

Now, this bishop is okay. He was in the hospital. He immediately forgave the attacker. Very Pope John. John Paul.

He said, I forgive this young man. I do not harbor any hate. Yada, yada. I love and pray for him.

Okay.

Now, that video was caught by the church, on tape.

And nobody wants it to be seen. When I say nobody wants it to be seen, I'm saying the government doesn't want it to be seen.

So they told Facebook and everybody else, memory hole this. The reason why they didn't want it to be seen, is because it was an Arab, a Muslim, attacking a Christian.

Now, this is an Iraqi Christian, by the way.

And they don't want that seen. So they told everybody to drop it.

But X, would not drop the video. Because it's true.

It happened! Here is the Prime Minister, speaking out against Elon Musk. For not taking that video down.

Listen.

VOICE: This isn't about freedom of speech. And most Australians, of course, overwhelmingly would never think about posting the sort of material that would cause damage, and to what end?

GLENN: Damage.

VOICE: This is an egotist. He is someone who is totally out of touch with the values that Australian families have. And this is causing great distress, I think. It is causing damage to his own brand of Twitter, which has now become X. He clearly sees this as a vanity project for himself, rather than about the people who are consumers. On his platform.

GLENN: That's kind of an interesting take, isn't it?

The politicians don't want to say, what kind of damage it's doing.

What it's doing, is showing Islamic extremism. That's what it's doing.

They don't want that to be seen. They have to deny that. Why?

To protect Islamic extremists?

So they accuse Elon Musk. This is a vanity project. But they go on much further from there.

So they're trying to get everybody to take that off. Take that video down. And Elon Musk wouldn't.

Just the same way he wouldn't play ball with the government, censoring people. Not him.

People. Censoring people in Brazil. Now Australia.

Here is Jacqui Lambie. She's in parliament over if -- or, she's a senator in Australia, and she's talking about Elon Musk.

VOICE: Elon Musk has no social conscience, or conscience whatsoever. I don't know whatever -- whatever Elon Musk is on that says that's okay to continue to do that is absolutely disgusting behavior. And, quite frankly, the bloker should be jailed. And the sooner that we can bring rules or do something about this sort of game they're playing with their social media, the better off we're going to be. But, quite frankly, the power that that man has because of that platform that he's on, it has got to stop. It has absolutely got to stop.

GLENN: The power that that man has, has got to stop, because of these games with our social media platforms. Have you noticed, you've never heard that said about Zuckerberg, you've never heard that said about Google. Except from conservatives?

You don't ever hear them. Anyone. Ever. As a government.

Stand up and say, it's got to be stopped.

They're doing everything they can, to destroy Elon Musk.

In fact, Elon Musk is becoming very, very Trump-like. In the attacks.

He is being attacked on all fronts. And he's being attacked by all the world governments.

Europe is after him. America is after him.

Brazil is after him. Australia is after him.

It's interesting.

Why?

Well, I would say, for the same reasons they're after Donald Trump. They've got to put him in jail. Why?

They have to discredit him. Why?

Because he cannot have power. Why?

It has nothing to do with his tweets. It has everything to do with him not being in the club, and down with their little plan.

Their plan is The Great Reset. Their plan is a global government.

And Donald Trump doesn't believe in a global government. He's taken us out of the WHO. He wants to take us out of the UN.

NATO he doesn't believe in their cute little plan. And so he must be destroyed. When he took us out of the Paris accords, that should have told us everything we needed to know.

He's an enemy of the state, because of his one idea, that America needs to concentrate on America, first!

Then help other people. That can't be -- that can't be done.

He's also hated, and so is Elon Musk, for the ideas, that they hold.

Elon Musk believes in the individual. Elon Musk believes in the power of the platform, for the individual.

That all voices should be heard. And the power that people have, with an open platform, is a good thing in the end.

But they both have one went against -- the governments have up thing against both of these people. Donald Trump and Elon Musk. And that is their power to expose. That's what's going on here. So what is it that Elon Musk is exposing in Australia?

You would say that maybe it is the exposing of Islamic terror. And that is true.

But also, you don't want people to really feel sympathetic, towards Bishop Mar Mari. You don't want the world to look up what he says. For example, here he's talking about Christians have become cowards. Listen.

VOICE: I'm the head of the church, and I'm a coward. What's the point? I need real men for the Lord Jesus! Men that do not fear. Men that will stand in the face of evil.

Not being sold for 30 pieces of silver. They're calling themselves leaders. The Lord Jesus is a warrior. The warrior.

But unfortunately, the 21st century Christians are weak.

Very weak. They sold their master for money!

Because of so-called corona. Nonsense! The biggest lie in the 21st. Corona. What corona? Corona was a con. And then came a Corolla, and then Lexus.

All lies from the highest to the lowest. All leaders, secular world and church and religious world, all lied. All. All lied.

Anthony Fauci lied. The World Health Organization lied. FDA lied. TGA lied! All of them.

All. This virus is dangerous. It will kill you, and kill your family.

You're going to hell. You're going to hell if you don't repent. You're going to hell. Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates. Prince Philip. Andrew, whatever his name is. Hollywood. And -- and -- and a lot of leaders. A lot of leaders are involved in this. Oh, my goodness.

What a sick, sick, sick, sick and filthy minds! And then the church leaders come out and saying, you need to adhere to the governments. Because they are from God. They are from Satan, not from God. And now they want to take away the freedom of and religion freedom of speech.

I can't talk about LGBTQRSV...
(laughter)
They can come and invade, but I can't defend. And they say we are a democracy. Evildoers! Shame on them.

GLENN: Hmm. This story changes a bit. Doesn't it?

They want to make sure that the stabbing of this man, by an Islamic is not seen. And we think it's because, well, he's an Islamic radical.

I thought that's what this story was, when I first looked into it, too.

And then I decided, who is this bishop. What does he say?

What does he believe?

What is he preaching from the pulpit?

He is preaching truth. What Elon Musk is exposing is the truth. It's on video. You can see it.

It's history. We're memory holing history.

Why? For political correctness. No!

For agenda. And it's a two for one deal. We can also get this story to go away, and memory hole what actually happened to this bishop.

And maybe the world won't actually listen to this man either. We don't want them to be sympathetic or even curious as to who Bishop Mar Mari is and what he believes and what he is saying. Because he's calling for men! Men of courage.

The Lord needs men! To stand up. Square your shoulders.

And say, these things are true, and these things are lies! And I will not participate in lies!
No more!

She Survived a Communist Death Camp. Will She Survive BIDEN'S Prisons?

88-year-old Eva Edl was arrested for violating the FACE Act, which restricts pro-life protests in front of abortion clinics. Now, she faces up to 6 months i prison and $10,000 in fines — which were originally 11 years in prison and $350,000 in fines. She was prepared to die in prison for standing up for the unborn IN AMERICA. But this wouldn't be her first time being a political prisoner. When she was 10 years old, she was sent to a concentration camp in communist Yugoslavia. Glenn reviews this crazy story, which is a reminder of how crucial our choice in the November election really is.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: I want to tell you about a story about a Christian pro-life activist, who finds herself in prison today.

Here in America. She's 88 years old. Now, she has to be quite a hardened criminal. 88. They scoop her up. She's in prison.

I want you to notice as I tell you the story, the difference between good and evil. And how America tolerates and even embraces absolute evil.

And can no longer even see good. We have protesters on the streets. And people make excuses for them. We have robberies. Some cities are an absolute hellhole now, because of what we have going on in the streets, with just illegal aliens.

By the way, did you notice that something else was in the bill, from the other night, when they -- you know, the war bill.

Or, I'm sorry.

The peace bill.

Where they gave $60 billion to Ukraine. And then they gave a little money to Taiwan. And then a little money to Israel. And then a little money to Hamas. Just so we can play all sides. And then they also put the TikTok thing in.

Huh, there was something else there. It was a buttload of money to be able to open up new offices. Federal offices, US government offices. To help ease the way -- more refugees into the United States.

They're building, I think four of them. I think it was $4 billion that was in that -- in that bill. To be able to open it up, to make the pathway to coming here, to the United States, from the Arab world, easier. I have nothing -- no piece against Eric. However, I just don't think that we're screening people very well.

There's a lot of people over in the Arab world, who hate our guts. What are we doing?

We can't see good and bad anymore. We can't see good versus evil anymore.

So here's Eva Edl. She's 88 years old. She's making peace with her life and her death now in prison. Put there by Joe Biden. She's been in prison before. She's familiar with the consequences of dehumanization. After the Nazi forces were rooted in -- in Europe. And they were just routed out.

The war at large was coming to an end. She was ten. And she was tossed into the communist dictator Tito's concentration camps.

She was a Nazi sympathizer. She was ten. She was ten.

Everybody was branded as a Nazi collaborator by Tito's Communist Party. They were targeting for their ethnic background. We were considered, she said, just nonhuman. It was permission to torture and kill by the government.

In camp, she said, she ended up losing all the skin on her legs. Hobbled by sores.

People gagged when they came near me, she said. The flies and the fleas and the lice and the bedbugs, just loved my festering body. She was ten.

She managed to escape to Austria. She spent several years in refugee camps. Made it to the United States. Only to be arrested by Joe Biden's jackbooted thugs. She's now making peace with her death in prison, for defending the lives of the biggest cohort of dehumanized people, slaughtered by the tens of millions, globally, every single year. The unborn.

The Justice Department charged her and ten other pro-life activists in October of 22 take it, for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.

This came from Bill Clinton. The pro-life activist staged a peaceful protest, inside the abortion clinic in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, on March 5th, 2021. They were singing, they were praying in support of those persons who had and would be slaying deeper inside the abortion clinic.

According to the Blaze article, earlier this month, she and the final four of the 11 pro-life activists were convicted.

The US attorney's office fort middle district of Tennessee, indicated that she faces up to six months in prison.

Five years of supervisor, or supervised relief.

Supervised release. And up to $10,000 in fines.

They were thinking about giving her up to a decade in prison. But I don't know. Maybe they saw this 88-year-old frail woman, who had been in a concentration camp.

As maybe want a threat, really. So they only gave her six months.


America has an amazing choice. A hard one. Because neither the candidates are perfect. They've both shown us what we can do. Donald Trump showed us exactly what he can do.

And Joe Biden has shown us exactly what he can do. Both will go further, I'm assuming, in their second term, than they did in the first term. One, because one learned an awful lot in the first term. And the other because there will be no consequence.

By the way, do you know they said that we told you that they were trying to ban gas stoves. We said, that's insanity. That can't be true. But the administration said it. Then they came out and said, we never said that. That's a conspiracy theory.

We have no desire to ban gas stoves.

Yesterday, the president signed a new executive order, banning all gas stoves in any government building.

Because we're phasing all the gas stoves out.

That's the priority!

You can't -- you can't afford to put things in the pan, on the stove. To cook it up for your family.

But he wants to ban gas stoves.

Yeah. Because oil is so much better.

And electricity, well, that just comes from the magic socket in the wall!

Is the Ark of the Covenant's Location KNOWN?

Is the Ark of the Covenant's Location KNOWN?

With some in Israel preparing to build a third Jewish Temple, and news of the possible sacrifice of a red heifer, many are asking: how much is about to change? And when the third Temple is built, will it require the Ark of the Covenant to be found? Can it even be found? Shoreshim Ministries founder Bill Cloud joins Glenn to explain it all. Plus, he reviews 4 places where the Ark is rumored to be and how likely each of those locations are to house the Ark: Is it in Ethiopia? Mt. Nebo? Outside the Old City? Or is it hidden in tunnels under the Temple Mount? Plus, Bill and Glenn discuss whether anything would have to happen to the Dome of the Rock for the Temple to be rebuilt.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. So does the dome of the rock have to be destroyed for the third temple?

BILL: That's what most people think when they consider, you know, a building of the temple. Although, not everybody thinks that that is necessary.


And because there is some dispute about where the temple actually sat, where the Holy of Holies was.

There's a lot of religious -- where the dome of the rock is.

There was a gentleman, excuse me, back in the late '80s, early '90s.

A professor at the University. He felt that the holy of holies was actually a little north of the dome of the rock, at a place called the dome of the tablets of the spirits.

So most people believe that the dome of the rock has to go. There are some who believe that it's possible, that the temple could have -- it's not just north.

And technically speaking, could it be on the same platform. There's even a passage in revelation chapter seven. Where John is told to measure the temple of God. To leave the court outside. Leave that out.

The Gentiles. So some people have thought, well, maybe that is suggesting that there is going to be a temple, alongside either the dome of the rock.

Or the mosque. And, you know, I don't know. I find that problematic for a lot of reasons.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. Kind of like the burning of the red heifer right there, you know, in Arab territory.

It might be a problem with that.

BILL: That's right.

GLENN: So, you know, the Ark of the Covenant is where they kept the Ten Commandments. And I know it was real. I know it existed. I never, ever thought, we're going to find that.

We're going to find that? Is that important for the rebuilding of the temple?

BILL: Well, technically speaking. The second temple.

This is the one that was built after the Babylonian captivity. And then Herod expanded it. That, we did not have the Ark of the Covenant in it. And it was still considered the house of God.

So there's historical precedent for rebuilding the temple and not having the ark. However, there's prophecies that talk about, how the glory of the latter house is going to be greater than the first one. Referring to Solomon, which is referring to the Ark of the Covenant.

So technically, they could rebuild it without the ark.

However, there have been those in Israel, since the reunification of Jerusalem, who not only do they want to build a temple of the Temple Mount, but they want to find the Ark of the Covenant.

And there are a lot of traditions, as to what happened to the Ark of the Covenant.

Some say, that it went to Ethiopia, which I don't believe.

Some people say, that Jeremiah hid it in Mount Nebo which is Jordan. Some people believe it's outside the old city, buried. And then there are quite a number of people. And particularly, people close to the idea of rebuilding the temple.

Who believe it's buried somewhere, and underneath the Temple Mount.

That's not really a big secret honestly. It's all oar the internet.

GLENN: No. But I find, if you know something about the Temple Mount.

We'll come back to this in just a second.

Because there's somebody a labyrinth of temples underneath, et cetera, et cetera. But I can't see how those have not been, you know, exhaustively gone through by those of the Muslim religion.

We'll give more of those in just a second. Stand by.
(music)

GLENN: So for the Biden administration, running the American economy is just like shooting fish in a barrel. Except, you and I are the fish, and the American dollar is the barrel. And it's getting shot full of holes every day. They're engaged in ongoing war between bad foreign policy and bad domestic policy. To see, I guess, which one will bring us down first.

And if you don't see the need to shore up your hard-earned money with something that will act as a firewall against economic disaster, you're not looking very hard.

GLENN: Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

We're glad you're here.

We're talking to bill cloud, as passover comes up on Monday.

We're talking about Biblical prophecies. Because there's a lot of stuff happening in the world right now.

Where a lot of people are going, you know. I think eye read about this someplace before.

But. No man knows when.

I mean, it could be a thousand years from now.

But it will happen at some point.

And we need to be aware. And I want to make this really clear. And, Bill, I think you'll back me up on this.

The Lord was not. He didn't look at Scriptures and was like, man. It doesn't have a snappy ending.

I want part two of this. So let me leave them on a scary cliffhanger.

The Book of Revelation was written, not to scare us.

But to say, look, all of these things will come to pass.

And it's almost. I think it's a blessing, that he says, and, you know, at this point, the seven-year clock starts to -- to tick off.

And he's telling us, this -- I'm not -- don't be shocked by these things.

They're going to be bad. And they're going to seem like they're never-ending.

But they're not.

And I'm telling you these things, so you have faith. And can make it through those times. Is that how you read it?

BILL: Absolutely. When you go to the Book of Revelation, by the way. And you look at the heading.

It says, the revelation of Jesus Christ. It does not say the revelation of the Antichrist or the tribulation or bold judgments and vile judges. It's about the Messiah. In fact, it says, in that book, that the essence of prophecy is the testimony of the messiah. The spirit of prophecy is about the messiah.

So everything about all this bad stuff, ultimately, it will point us to the messiah. Because all the bad stuff is just the Satan, and those who practice wickedness. Trying to stop the messiah from returning and sitting upon his throne in Jerusalem. To rule and reign.

So, yeah, it doesn't end on a bad note. It ends on what mankind, those who love and holiness had been longing for, since Adam was exiled from the garden.

A return, to be with God and God be in our midst. So that's the greatest thing that we could ever hope for. And all these things that we would see, is pointing us to that. So it's an excellent observation on your part.

It tells us these things. In fact, when he sat down on the Mount of Olives with his disciples. This is a -- by the way, Mount of Olives is where they will burn that red heifer when they do it. But anyway, he sits down on the Mount of Olives. And he says, tell me all these things, as you said, so you know this will happen.

But don't be dismayed. Don't fall in despair. I'm telling you these things, so that you will not be deceived.

I'm telling you these things, in advance, you won't be impulsive, and running after things that you shouldn't be running after. So when these things happen, keep your focus.

You know, kind of stay the course on what you know is true. So absolutely, I agree with you.

GLENN: Growing lawlessness is the sign of the last days. And we're seeing lawlessness, like I've never seen before.

Now, this has happened over and over again. Where societies have been lawless, and they collapse.

But lawlessness in the last days, it gives birth to the lawless one. Which is the Antichrist. Right?

BILL: Right. Exactly. That's exactly right. You know, a lot of people have thought, that the Antichrist have come to power. And he will create this lawless environment.

I believe a lawless environment gives birth to the lawless one. The final prediction of the Antichrist.

GLENN: To me, that -- that is -- makes sense.

We're -- you know, it was about 2000, oh, six. I was talking to Condoleezza Rice. And she used very specific language. She was on my show. And we were talking about, you know, what things look like now.

And, you know, what's coming our way. And she said, these things are birth pangs. Of the things to come.

And I thought, that was -- you know, rather unusual language for somebody to use.

Because it's very Scriptural.

BILL: Yeah. That's Biblical language for sure.

GLENN: Yeah, it is. And we are giving birth to something. I don't know if it's the -- you know, the Antichrist. Or the end times. Or just really, really bad times.

But there -- everything that we're seeing, these are like contractions and birth pangs. When things happen, you're like, ow. That hurt. And they're becoming faster and faster and closer and closer to one another.

We are giving birth to something.

BILL: Yeah. Well, in Hebrews, it's the birth pangs of the Messiah.

The Messiah is -- and his rule and reign, over the earth, that's what is -- that's what's being birthed. That's what's coming to fruition.

It's just in the process, the earth and everybody in it, has to go through these birth pangs.

Paul talks about how the earth is groaning and producing this travail and birth pangs. So that the sons of God will be revealed. That goes hand-in-glove with the messiah and his return. That's what's being birthed.

But just like in any birth, something that is wonderful. There's all this yuckiness, and pain and suffering.

Unfortunately, that pressure has to be there, to get those who are listening to the voice of the Lord, in the place that he wants them to be. And that is, not giving in to the lawlessness. Not giving in to the just crazy stuff, that society is pushing down our throats.

But to stay true, based on what Christians say.

So that's what's being birthed, as far as I'm concerned.

GLENN: Let me go back to the Ark of the Covenant. It seems like an Indiana Jones movie. It doesn't seem rule in some ways.

I know it is. Or I know it was.

But then it just kind of disappeared.

Nobody really knows what happened to it. People have been looking for it, forever.

And people are saying, it will be revealed. And some people believe it's under the Temple Mount.

I've stood, at the place where they say, right behind these stones, is where they think the holy of holies is.

Which is where they think the Ark of the Covenant is.

And it's a labyrinth of passageways and everything, underneath there. At least it used to be. But why -- why would it -- how could it possibly be still there, when, you know, the Muslims have been digging underneath the Temple Mount for a long time. And taking truckloads, of -- of dirt and antiquities out and just dumping them.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, how could it still be there?

You know, I don't know that I have the answer to that question. I will just say, my faith would say, if God wanted it to be there, it will still be there. He has a way of watching over things.

GLENN: Right.

But is it prophesied that it will be found and come back, or is this just something that some people think?

BILL: Well, the last time you see -- or you see a mention of the Ark of the Covenant. Is when Josiah tells the priest to take the Ark of the Covenant and put it in the house that Solomon had prepared for it. And, by the way, there are people who read into that. Well, the Ark of the Covenant was already in the temple. What is Josiah saying? Some people say, well, he was hiding it, because he knew the Babylonians were coming. And that's where some people think, well, it's hidden in somewhere around Jerusalem.

Most people close to the temple, are -- our rebuilt temple. Motivation. Think it's under the Temple Mount.

But, you know, it disappears from the record, is the point.

And the next time you see anything mentioned. It's in the Book of Revelation, actually.

After all this other stuff is over with.

All the bad stuff.

So, yeah. It is a big mystery.

I will tell you a quick story. Ninety-two.
I and another gentleman, along with an Israeli friend, we went to the office of Rabbi Yehuda Getz, who at that time was over all of the holy places in Jerusalem.

And to make a long story short, Rabbi Getz did not believe that the Ark of the Covenant was in Ethiopia. He did not believe it was there.

He felt very confident, he knew where the Ark of the Covenant was. And he did not tell us. But our Israeli friend, later told us, that in the early '80s, along with a lot of the men who were participants, in the relitigation of Jerusalem. '67. Actually, when these excavations begun, they were looking for the Ark of the Covenant. Because they believed that it was under the temple mount somewhere. I've even heard reports, that it was supposedly -- saw the place where it was kept. Now, I don't know that to be a fact.

So there are people who do believe it still exists. There are people that are in Jerusalem, who would love for that to be revealed. And I would suggest that if that were -- if you think the red of her will cause --

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. I mean, I can't imagine how that could be revealed, and the whole world not taking real significant note.

Whether you believe that the -- what's ever in it. Or that the remnants of the Ten Commandments. Or not.

It doesn't matter.

For the Ark of the Covenant to be revealed and come back.

That would say a lot, about Israel. About Jerusalem. About the times we live in. I mean, pretty much everything. Pretty much everything.

GLENN: Well, it still exists. And this is just my opinion. That's all it is, just an opinion.

I tend to believe that if it does exist, and it's going to be revealed.

Then it probably will coincide with the Messianic age, with the Messiah's return.

And I think that would probably be more likely. But that doesn't mean that there aren't people who would be very, very excited to be -- to have an opportunity. To find it, look for it. And if they could, bring it out.

And that would cause World War III, most likely.

GLENN: It probably would.

It's weird, Bill. When you're over there. You don't understand highway this little patch of land has caused so much turmoil really, in the world.

Why everybody seems to be -- you know, centered on that patch of land. Because it's not very big.

And it's almost like it's a pulse, you can feel it.

That Temple Mount. There's something about that area.

It's God's throne. And you can feel it.

It's amazing. It's amazing.

BILL: Exactly. Exactly. That, what you just said, is prophetic. Prophecy said, he will make Jerusalem burden themselves. And even more -- more so, the Temple Mount. Because that is where God's presence kissed the earth.

And the Ark of the Covenant was basically God's throne on earth.

So, yeah. It's a very contested piece of property, and it will be at the heart of conflict. Yes.

The Senate has passed a $95 billion war package, which will mostly fund Ukraine. But, although Congress somehow snuck the TikTok bill into it, they also took out one of the most important parts! So, what do we have here, Glenn asks? Another bill that moves us in the direction of endless wars. But this isn't just the Democrats. A good chunk of Republicans was also for this. The real problem, Glenn argues, isn't Republicans or Democrats. It's that BOTH sides have abandoned the Constitution. But we CAN fix this, Glenn argues: "Nothing will change unless something changes." However, the solution is NOT a civil war — in fact, PRAY that we don't have one!

GLENN: Okay. Let me see. Last hour, I was -- I was telling you about what happened in the Senate, last night. The Senate passed a package, $95 billion.

It does not secure our border. It goes in, and takes more money. And straps your children and your grandchildren with another $95 billion. It gives money to Taiwan, which hacks off the Chinese. And that's fine. But, gang. Let's be honest.

We are not going to fight a war in Taiwan.

Maybe one day, we would have, but we cannot do it. It would stretch, just -- just -- just this alone, would kill and cripple the United States. We don't have the supply lines. So if we wanted to protect Taiwan, our supply line would take all of the assets we have all over the world, just to supply everything we need for Taiwan.

Now, I -- I am sorry, but that's the truth.

I think Taiwan should be its own nation.

I don't want to see China, gobble up another nation. But we cannot do it. The days of us saying, we can protect everywhere, and do everything.

Those are over. They've been over for a very long time. We won the Cold War. And then we lost the peace.

And, quite honestly, I'm going to blame a lot of this on people like me.

Okay?

We won the Cold War!

Yeah. Tear down that wall!

And then we just thought it was okay.

And then we continued on, all of these endless wars.

We listened to presidents like George H.W. Bush. Who was a spook. We have listened to the State Department.

Over and over again.

Have you noticed that since the United Nations happened, things are not really much better? With war?

Yeah. We haven't had a global war yet.

But we're setting everything else on fire.

And since tragedy and hope, a book that was written in the 1960s.

That explained, there will only be police actions. And no clear winners in war, anymore.

It will end kind of in a standoff. It will end like it did in Iraq, like it did in the Gulf War, like it did in Afghanistan, like it did in Vietnam. That's the plan now! And it's out in the open. It's not some pastor. That's the way we fight wars now.

I don't want to fight a war. I don't want to spend 20 years fighting a war, and have it end like Afghanistan. You and I both know, the United States of America, could -- could have gone in there, and we could have kicked Afghani's ass, and got out. But that's not what we do.

Because we now have to nation build. I don't want to nation build.

Have you noticed how much the world resents us?

Why does the world resent us. Well, for one thing, new information, we're giant hypocrites!

I always thought that Americans were good and gracious. And we were going over to help people.

You're not going over to help people, when you go into very, very religious countries, and say, hey, by the way. You want any of our aid, you have to have your kids aborted.

You have to have drag queen shows. You think they're going to like us, or resent us?

You think they're going to like us, when you -- when you say, oh, we don't torture. We're beyond that. We don't. We definitely tonight torture.

And then we ghost plane people? To a regime in Egypt, that we kept propped up forever? So they could torture people for us?

The policies of the last 100 years, don't work.

They don't work.

Stu said last hour. Glenn, you know, 45 percent of Republicans want the Ukrainian aid. And because I said, when are the Republicans going to listen to their base?

Well, it's fairly split. Fifty-five-45. Okay.

So I'll never be able to make the case, to the Lindsey Grahams of the world. Because I don't know Lindsey Graham. I mean, I don't know. I haven't seen his bottom line. Is he rich from Raytheon?

I don't know. Or is he just a war hawk, that just wants war all the time because he actually believes it? I don't know. But I will tell you this: The world is changing. And if you don't recognize that, you are going to be left in the dust.

Now, everything is changing. And that's what everybody keeps telling you.

Well, the biggest thing that is changing is, our politicians are not following the Constitution. That's the root of all of our evils.

We are not following the Constitution of the United States. Congress is no longer in charge of the purse. Congress doesn't pass the laws. It's all left in the hands of bureaucrats. Who make all these little edicts. And all these little changes. And they turn this little dial by 10 percent. And this dial by 25 percent. And before you know it, you're a freaking slave.

And who do you go to?

It doesn't matter who you vote for. Because they don't make the laws anymore.

So you have a new Speaker of the House. What does he do?

He completely abandons everything. Because he said briefings now. Well, you know what, if they've changed you that much, I think you should brief the world.

I think you should brief the United States. I keep hearing how dangerous the world is. No crap!

Really?

It's dangerous. You think it's more dangerous since Joe Biden got in, or less dangerous?

It's been getting more and more dangerous, for the last 25 years. Why?

Because the last 25 years. The last 75 years, the State Department has been running everything. They don't care who the president is.

It started with the creation of Israel.

The State Department threatened, threatened the dually elected president of the United States. Harry Truman.

You're not going to make that statement. Yes, we are.

No, you're not.

I'm the president of the United States. So I will dictate policy. He beat them to the microphone.

That's the only reason. Why the state of Israel exists.

Because the dually elected president, who had the responsibility to set the pace, beat the State Department. And the Deep State, to the microphones.

So, yeah. We are changing.

And it is popularity to change, but Stu was right.

It is important for us to state why we're changing.

The definition of insanity is to do the same thing, and expect different results. I could be here all day, giving you examples of this.

The fed. The fed comes up with a plan. It makes things worse. So we go back to the fed.

They make a plan. And it makes things worse.

So we go back to the fed. And they make a plan. And it makes things worse!

We need to protect ourselves. So we go to the Department of Homeland Security. And we lies rights. And things don't change.

So we go to the Homeland Security.

And we make changes, we're not protected. We lose more rights. And nothing changes.

Look, this is so simple, it's ridiculous. Nothing will change, unless something changes.

I say to that my kids all the time. Nothing will change, unless something changes. Dad, how come this keeps happening to me?

Because, nothing will change, unless something changes.

Unless you change. Unless you do something different, it's going to keep happening.

Everything in our country, we're losing more and more rights, and so what do we do?

We elect the same kind of people over and over again, and we lose more rights. And so we're like, yeah. Well, we need some more people.

And we hire the same kind of people. And we lies more rights. What's missing in this?

I was just in South Carolina. By the way, thank God South Carolina.

I mean, you didn't vote for George Washington.

You voted against the anti-slavery thing in the Declaration of Independence.

And you did start the Civil War. Can you get this one right?

And I think the answer is, yes.

I met with some of the leadership of South Carolina, the Freedom Caucus, and all the people standing.

And I asked every single one of them, look, can I get your endorsement.

I don't endorse anybody. But let me ask you this: Where do you stand on the Constitution.

And if they didn't say, it's everything. It's the root of everything I believe in. It's the only thing worth fighting for, I'm not interested.

And I will tell you, that the progress they're making in South Carolina, the bills that they have shut down and the Republicans hate them. Hate them.

How can you possibly make Mike Lee into an extremist?

Have you ever talked to Mike Lee? He's the furthest thing from an extremist. Mike is the most mild mannered, sweetheart of a guy, I've ever met.
He's so nice, he is so not throwing people under the bus. Ever.

He pisses me off, at times!

Because I'm like, stop it, you're making me look bad!

Because I don't have the restraint you do.

He's known, in the state, as an extremist.

How is that possible? He's so extreme, he says we should play by the rules. He's so extreme, he keeps checking this document, and going, oh, I can't do that. Because it's not in this. What document is it? It was a document of a revolution. It was a revolutionary -- it was a Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights! How can this guy be a radical!

It's time to change, gang. And it's not time, to have a Civil War. You should pray -- pray, that we don't have a Civil War.

Do you -- do you know what that's like? Do you know what that's like? Do you know what would happen?

We Balkanize. Do you know what your life is like?

You don't want any of that. Anybody who is like, it's time we -- we split up!

First of all, I ain't going anywhere. Because I'm not leaving my country. I'm not leaving my country.

Well, my country left me. No. You would be leaving. Because they have Washington, and all of the documents! I'm not leaving without the documents.

I didn't band everything that the monuments stand for. I am still for them.

I am not wearing a mask in public, because I'm not shouting death to America. You're not the revolutionary. You may have changed. But that's because you're waking up!

When you wake up, you start seeing, wow. This doesn't work.

Well, what doesn't work?

The Constitution? Or the people who are ignoring it.
