Steadfast and Honorable: You Are the Audience That Saves the World

June 13, 2017
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program

I want to thank you for being here every day. I want to thank you for listening to this program. It's an honor to serve you.

Here's why: I have said --- I think almost since 9/11 --- that this audience is going to be the one that rescues the free world, that rescues the country. I don't know why, but I've always believed that.

Let me try to give you the reasons.

I'm going to give you the first reason in the context of what's going on in the country right not and its direct correlation to this Megyn Kelly interview with Alex Jones. JPMorgan Chase has asked to pull their sponsorship from the show on Sunday. Are you kidding me? Time magazine made Hitler the man of the year! What has happened to our country, where we can't listen to an opposing view or something we don't agree with?

Explain it to your friends upset by this interview by asking this: What do you think of safe zones on schools?

And you answer: I think they're ridiculous. I think that's absolute hogwash --- safe zones in schools.

And here are the follow-up questions: Then why can't you handle an interview with something that you don't like? Why can't you handle the news that exposes you to things that you don't necessarily agree with?

"Question with boldness, even the very existence of God." When Thomas Jefferson wrote that, was there a more dangerous thing to question than God? I mean, that was insanity. Nobody questioned God.

Question with boldness, even the very existence of God, for if there be a God, he must surely rather honest questioning over blindfolded fear.

Now, the key is honest questioning. That's the real problem. There are very few people in journalism doing honest questioning these days. And there are more voices that are just throwing out red meat. And, quite honestly, in the past, mine included. That's not going to get us anywhere because we're all starting to go into our caves.

And here's what's going to happen: If these boycotts continue, where they are affecting NBC and a real journalist sitting down with a controversial newsmaker, then you won't have any news. You know where you'll get your news? NPR and PBS. They will nationalize the news --- congratulations on that. They will say, we can't afford it, so the government needs to underwrite it. You want to know where the boycotts lead us? They lead us to the BBC, nationalized news.

Will your own voice be represented there? What will the national news media say about the voices online? I can tell you right now they'll call it fake news. Ted Koppel says it's fake news. He thinks we should license people to be able to put their opinions online. That's the crazy world we're entering in.

Now, what we're feeling is chaos. We are feeling disruption happening in the old world and in this new world, and it's going to be tough to get through. But because you are who you are --- you understand honest questioning, you understand there are no safe zones in life, you understand the First Amendment to mean no infringement on the press --- because you know what that means, you know that anybody who wants to write a story can write a story.

You are going to be the audience that saves the world because every other audience is starting to run and hide from the things that make them uncomfortable.

We all should be doing one thing every week that puts us in an uncomfortable position. You should be challenging yourself, your friends. Challenging yourself to meet new people, to get new experiences --- at least once a week. You should say, "I can't believe I just did that. That was cool. That was a little scary, but that was cool."

We're calcifying, and we need to break that up. Freedom, as they say, isn't free. Liberty isn't free. Liberty takes work --- mind work. It doesn't take guns. It takes nimble minds.

Right now, we're living in a world where you cannot define right and wrong. What is right and what is wrong? People in school are being taught that there is no right or wrong. Two plus two equals five, if you can show me the work. At the same time, we are taking apart every single truth that we know.

We are now entering a world where we are programming AI. Well, we have to have certain axioms that we know are true as we program AI: Human life is paramount. If we teach that all truth is subjective, what do you think is going to happen when AI is asked, can you solve these problems? "Sure, I can. Humans are a virus. Humans are causing the problems."

How can we possibly wrestle with the questions that we need to program AI, if we can't decide on truth --- if we can't even have a conversation that explores the truth?

So, I just want to thank you for being here, for being steadfast and not going over the cliff with the rest of humanity. This audience is --- and always has been --- special.

Thank you for the honor of serving you.

WATCH: Candace Owens: This is what’s REALLY driving the race riots in America

With cops under fire, businesses destroyed, and innocent civilians beaten and killed, where is the justice that well-meaning protesters were seeking for George Floyd?

On Wednesday night's special, Glenn Beck goes one on one with Blexit founder and "Blackout" author Candace Owens about what's really driving the riots, white privilege in America, and why it sickens her that Floyd has become a martyr for Black America.

'Liberation begins where America dies': Lara Logan reveals the TRUTH about Antifa's role in violent riots

Award-winning investigative journalist Lara Logan told Glenn Beck on the radio program Wednesday that a network of radical extremist terrorist organizations, which includes Antifa, are coordinating and escalating many of the violent riots in the wake of George Floyd's death.

Lara, who has done extensive reporting on Antifa, said it's "extraordinary" that so many Americans in the media and politics are defending the "very violent terrorist organization."

"[The media is] pretending that they care about journalism. They don't. They care about silencing, intimidating, destroying, annihilating, and getting us all to self-sensor so we don't cover any of the subjects they don't want us talking about," she said.

"For those of us who've followed [Antifa] for a while, and know what they're doing and what their agenda is, what has always been troubling is the way so many people in the media and in the political establishment have given them cover to operate," Laura added. "These are extremists. And you see a lot of parallels between extremists on the left and the right ... they pretty much operate the same way, exactly. And there's no difference between what Antifa is doing and the 'Brown Shirts' of Nazi Germany. Or the 'Black Shirts' of Mussolini."

She read the 10 points of action listed by an extremist group called the "Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement", which culminates with "Liberation begins where America dies."

Glenn recalled a prediction he made approximately 15 years ago, that "socialist, communists, radicals, anarchists, [and] Islamists would all work together ... they would all see the opportunity and work toward the same goal. And that's destruction of capitalism, and destruction of the Western world."

"A few years ago, I probably would not have agreed with you on that," Laura responded. "But I now see that you're absolutely correct."

Dan Bongino RIPS media for calling Trump a 'coward hiding in a bunker' during White House riots

The Trump-deranged media is calling the president a "coward" because he was moved to an underground bunker as riots erupted outside the White House over the weekend.

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino joined the "Glenn Beck Radio Program" Tuesday to set the record straight. He told Glenn that under Title 18, US Code 3056, the Secret Service has the authority to protect the president however they deem necessary, with or without his consent.

Dan explained that the severity of the White House riots, which resulted in at least 50 Secret Service agents being injured, would very likely have warranted overriding the president's preference on whether or not to take shelter.

"Shame on the media ... for painting this as some kind of situation where Trump ran like a coward," Dan said. "Which is totally false and made-up. [...] They're morons. These are imbeciles with double digit IQs who are only in this to aggravate an already-bad situation. And it's a shame, because they're really incentivizing this kind of stuff to happen."

He also made it clear that the so-called protests over the death of George Floyd were actually "very strategic" riots organized by "Antifa terrorists."

"It was not even a protest. It should have been, and could have been ... but that's not what it was. It was an insurrection. It was a riot," Dan stated.

"I can tell you, from sources of mine that were there, [who are] more than credible and unimpeachable, that the attack at the White House -- and that's what it was over a period of days -- was very organized. It was done using very strategic tactics," he added. "I want to be crystal clear, this was organized by Antifa terrorists. It's not a joke. It's not hyperbole. These were people that were committed to an insurrection that was thankfully put down."

'Medieval': Dallas man STONED, beaten to near-death by rioters in viral video

Image source: BlazeTV video screen save

The media has been trying to discredit BlazeTV's Elijah Schaffer after he recorded a disturbing video of a man being brutally beaten and stoned almost to death by rioters Saturday evening in Dallas.

Elijah joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Monday to set the record straight.

"The very dishonest far-left media is working tirelessly at the moment to completely, not only discredit myself, but they always say, 'Elijah Schaffer who works for Glenn Beck's BlazeTV.' As if that's an insult. So I'm going to clear the air right now," he told Glenn.

"There was a group of about, I would say 150 rioters. They were not protesters. They were breaking windows. They broke into a bank. They broke into a bar. They were looting alcohol and partying on the streets while breaking glass. These were not people who were grieving over black lives," he added. "The police had lost control of the city."

Elijah went on to describe the violent scene, detailing the events leading up to the brutal beating of a man who was apparently trying to defend a local bar. Elijah posted a video of the incident on Twitter Saturday night.

*Warning: graphic content*

"Rioters with rocks and bricks and bats and weapons, 150 or more, were accosting him as he stood in front of the bar," Elijah said. "Then they started stoning him, Glenn! Medieval! Throwing rocks and bricks.... We're in America. This is 2020. We do not stone people in the United States of America!"
