14 ways to PREPARE for food shortages around the world

Inflation is high in America, but that’s not the only place. Other countries — like Peru, for example — already are experiencing some terrifying consequences from high prices around the world. That — coupled with the war in Ukraine — means we could be facing not only food shortages, but shortages in fuel, fertilizer, aluminum, and neon as well. So, what can we do NOW to prepare? Glenn lists 14 WAYS to prepare for food shortages, inflation, and unpredictability TODAY.

GLENN: So we have inflation. We all know that we have inflation. And it's not just here in America. Inflation many Peru, is getting so bad now, the proven authorities, have -- have been in a scuffle in the streets. Six people were reported dead. Then the president came out, put a state of emergency out. Placed the capital under curfew.

The next morning, he had to backtrack, and withdrew the curfew. Because nobody listened to that curfew. His -- I love this statement. You're going to love this, Stu. His statement to the press is, Peru is not really going through a good moment. Suboptimal.

STU: Suboptimal. Yes.

GLENN: Suboptimal. Now 11 people are Ted. It's because of high gas prices. High food prices. Everything is hitting the economy. Their inflation now is 9.5 percent. Almost 10 percent, is what they're dealing with. We're at 7.5. But that's on me at 7.5. But that's because you calculated it the way we did when we had inflation like this last time during the 1970s and '80s. We would be about at 15 percent inflation. That's the real number, that you're feeling right now. Not this 7.9 or 7.5 percent.

STU: Which is still really bad.

GLENN: Still bad. Still really bad. So they're trying to blame the rise of gas prices on the Ukrainian war. And that is contributing. But prices were already on the rise, before invasion began. And that's because we're flooding the U.S. dollar, all across the world. I mean, Noah, build a freaking ark. The money wave is coming. In Germany, if you went to the grocery store on Sunday, this just a few days ago, you bought groceries. If you forgot something, you really regretted it. If you went to the grocery store, on Monday. Because Monday, food prices went up between 20 and 50 percent on every item. They're freaking out, just a little bit.

Now, farmers and ranchers have been ringing this bell for a while. But the federal government is not doing anything. About the real crisis, that is happening with the farms and the ranches. Why? ESG. They're going to cripple them. But in the meantime, if you look at the food commodity price index, it's up with vegetable oil. Cereals. Dairy, meat, sugar. Way above normal. And rising. A large chunk of the wheat production, comes from Ukraine and Russia. Bizarrely, not us anymore. I don't know when that changed. But it's shameful. Shameful what we have done. Not only is the wheat production now closing down in Ukraine and Russia. But also fertilizer. Just from inflation and the Ukrainian war, we are now looking at shortages, coming in food, fuel, fertilizer, aluminum, and neon. Yes? No more -- no more heat signs. Can't make them. Can't make them. Actually, neon is -- is used to make silicon chips. We use them for high-tech.

STU: Oh, no issue with that. No chip shortage whatsoever.

GLENN: Yeah. Now, aluminum affects the price of all your canned goods. China is locking back down again. Due to another wave of covid. And it was as serious as it was the last time, when everything stopped coming from China.

We don't have any idea how bad this is going to get. We are now -- listen to this. We are now the largest food importer, in the world. We import more food, than anyone else. China has more than double our population. Yet, we double the amount of food, that we import.

STU: And for, what? Almost four times our population.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. But we import double than they do. That should tell you, how out of control this country is. How we have just paid attention to all of the wrong things. We aren't making our own medicines anymore. We're not making anything. If the world -- nobody is really talking about this. If the world does go bipolar, we now have a unipolar world. The United States and the West pretty much runs everything. You go bipolar, like we did with the Cold War, all of that fuel, that comes from the Soviet Union, all of the medicine and chips, and everything else, that comes from China. Gone. What does that mean for us? So here's what it means to me. Prepare. And I want to go through some things, with you. On how to prepare your family. Now, I know that Bloomberg has said, ride the bus. Or my favorite was, eat beans. I love that one.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: I mean, at least Marie Antoinette said, cake. You know what I mean?

STU: He is riding the bus to Bermuda?

GLENN: Yeah. He is. Yeah, he is. He has a house down there. So let me give you a few things that I came up with, and also Carol Roth, who is going to be on the program tomorrow. Also came up with. And she's been working with people online, saying, okay. What are you doing? We have to think like our grandparents, if your grandparents survived the Great Depression. Inflation means your -- your dollar. It's not the price of the goods that is going up. This is so important to understand. And you can learn about it in the Tuttle Twins books. It means that your dollar is worth less.

The products aren't worth more. Your dollar is -- has buying power that has been lessened. Okay? So when -- when the prices increase, what you can buy decreases in volume. Okay? For item that see are going to go up in price. And this is an article, by Carol Roth, at TheBlaze.com. You try to lock in the prices today. This is something I've been saying, if you need something, buy two. Store the other one, and don't use it. Don't use it.

This way, you're not paying the higher price in the future. You're saving money, by buying two of everything right now. Also, you might want to talk to goods and services providers, to see if they can give you a discount on any bulk purchase, or paying in full today. Just make sure that the goods aren't perishable, or that you know how to properly store them. For any ongoing services, you prebuy. Make sure they're from companies you believe will still be in business, when you need to use them. She said Twitter followers responded that they are cutting out grocery stores, and going straight to the farmers. This is a fantastic idea. Some are finding friends and families to split a cow for meat, freezing as much as they can, to secure better pricing. Others with the ability to care for them. Are getting chickens for eggs. Et cetera. Many individuals are planting or canning Venezuela, dealing directly with local farmers, via the farmer's market. Or contacting them directly. And this is helping keep important food prices down. I can't recommend highly enough, that you either plant your own food. If you're a farmer, plant your food. If you have space for a garden, plant your own food. You can't do any of those things. Go meet the farmers. And talk to them directly. Because they need your support. And you need their food. The other thing is, get into a farmer's market. And if you don't have a farmer's market, start one. We need farmer's markets in all of our towns. You've got to think locally. One of the Twitter followers, with Carol said, in December, I established a local liberty urban homestead market. It's a group on Facebook. The goal is to set aside some space we have, in our urban and suburban homes, to grow or raise something, to exchange with others. Completely voluntary. Tee centralized. And pier to pier. This is really a great idea. Anything that you can do, that is voluntary. Decentralized. And peer-to-peer is great. Bartering is peer-to-peer. And it is always used in tough economic times. Goods. Food products. All of it can be bartered. If you have a skill, like you need somebody to tell you a story. I'm there. I'm there. You know what I mean? I've got skills that are -- oh. So valuable, in things like the great depression. Yeah. I can -- I can sit and talk. Or not talk.

I could tell stories.

STU: I don't know that you're capable of not talking. I think there's just talking.

GLENN: All right. Well, I can work on the rest of that. I've got no skills. You and I both, we're dead.

STU: Oh, toast.

GLENN: We starve to death. I got no skills.

STU: We provide finely marbled meat to farmers.

GLENN: That's exactly right. If you go the barter route, make sure you're very clear of the expectations of both parties. Having something written down helps avoid problems in the future.

Also, note that barter transactions are taxable. Make sure you keep track of the bartering, and speak with your accountant for guidance on how to account for all of this and the tax implications. You have to do that. If you want to -- this brings me to the next thing, that I think is one of the toughest. Location, location, location. Live near like-minded people. Lots of them. Texas. Florida. Mountains. Any place. The Amish. Any place -- I mean, you would have to wear black. But you can blend in. But I can't use the blender or the TV or the radio? What? Just put on a black dress. You're fine. I mean, even if you're a man, you will be fine. They are so woke. Any place where God plays a role. Because you are going to need to be around like-minded people, who believe in a higher power. For good. That's kind of important. If you can't move, fine. Most people can't. If you can't move, create a network of people. Find a network, and create it. Start your 9/12 Project. To get whatever it is. But find a network of people, around you. That you can contact, and you can work together. Don't be alone.

By the way, when this hits, where you are, is where you will be. I am convinced of that. I could be wrong. But I don't see people buying a lot of gas for trucks and things going across the country. When it happens, that's where you will be. Make sure you think about that, right now. Moving is a serious consideration. It is so tough. I've got kids in school. You've had maybe kids in school. Family. You've built a life. It's really tough. But at least consider it, if you are alone, in the area.

I'm going to take a quick break, then I'm going to come back, and talk to you a little bit about money. Electronics. Your school, and your life at home, and life at work, coming up in just a second. First, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins. You know, I just mentioned that inflation is a big part of our life. Inflation is so important, to understand. And if you don't understand, what inflation is, how it works, who is responsible, how to get out of inflation. We're in real trouble. The Tuttle Twins books. I've told you about for a while.

They are for your kids. And they help your kids learn really important principles. This one is the creature from Jekyll island. I'm bringing this one up. This one is from a series, but you can buy this book. Actually, I've asked them to give it away for free. I think this is so important. Every household should have this. Even if you think you can explain it. Even if you think you know what the fed is, how it works. What inflation is. Get this book, and pass it on to somebody. Because it's really easy to understand it. It's the Tuttle Twins and the creature from Jekyll island. Vital. So vital, that I have asked them to give it for free. All you pay for is shipping. So go to TuttleTwinsBeck.com while the supplies last. Get your free copy from the Tuttle Twins. The Creature from Jekyll island. TuttleTwinsBeck.com. Ten-second station ID.

(music)

GLENN: Just trying to go down a list of things to be prepared for. This list at GlennBeck.com. We also have to take the preparedness test. I would love to take that with you. See how different we are. That's at GlennBeck.com. How prepared are you.

STU: I don't know if I would be embarrassed by that. Because my outcome would be terrible compared to yours. But that's always been the case. Of all situations. So far, it's worked out okay.

GLENN: Worked out okay. Keep going. Soy sauce. Duck sauce. You're fine. You're fine.

STU: Right. That's all the food groups.

GLENN: That's right.

STU: Soy sauce is one food group. Duck sauce is the other.

GLENN: It's meat and vegetables. That's what it is. What else to a need? You have soy. It's a vegetable.

STU: It's pretty much a vegetable. Duck sauce is not made from duck. But we can count it.

GLENN: I think it is. All right. So let me go with money. The money that you have right now, you are going to lose. Let's put $1,000 in your bank account. You will lose 10 percent of that, every year. Just leaving it in the bank account. 10 percent of that, every year. For the next ten years.

So what does that leave you with, at the end?

STU: That's not good. I'll tell you that.

GLENN: It's not good. It's not good. And that's not coming from me. That's coming from Barack Obama's Treasury secretary. He said that a couple of weeks ago. And he said, that's baked in. That's bare minimum. Bare minimum.

So your money is going to be worth less and less, until it's worthless. And then they will change over in the currency. So what do you have as a storehouse, to be able to keep your money valued at something?

What can you buy that will forever hold its value? Well, that's where gold and silver come in. Some people will say bitcoin. That's risky. I mean, but everything is. But gold and silver, I know, and silver can be used for bartering. Gold can be used for bartering. It's -- it's good that way. And it's Biblical. I mean, it's been there forever. When the world goes insane, and governments go insane. They devalue their money. And everybody returns to gold. So gold.

But also, food has great value. Cigarettes have some value. Liquor. I mean, let me just tell you. As an alcoholic, I would have -- I would have -- I would have -- you know, you have a problem with your neighbor. I would have eaten them, if I had to. If you had alcohol, and I had none.

So -- but I'm not saying play off the desperate alcoholics. But I am saying --

STU: That seems what you're saying.

GLENN: Well, it's not that I'm not saying that. But I am saying that it is also medicinal. It is something --

STU: Ah. I like that -- that's an alcoholic talking right there. Oh, it's medicinal.

GLENN: If anybody watch 1883 -- if you saw what they had to do in 1883, I better have a lot of alcohol on my hands. So, anyway, alcohol. Cigarettes. Sugar. Ammunition. Guns. Seeds. Those are all very, very important. Skills are really important. I mean, can you fix an engine? I can't. I can't fix a new engine. No. I don't know anybody that can fix a new engine. But I can't even fix an old engine. Which brings me via a truck or vehicle in 1979. Something you can learn to fix yourself.

Try to have at least two weeks, if you can. Thirty days of cash on hand. So, in other words, whatever you spend, if you can, have it, I think for a couple of weeks. If you can. It's a lot of money. But try to have whatever it is that you would spend, minimal, that way, if there is a banking crisis, which this will go into a bank shutdown. Like it did in the 1930s. They will do that. And you're going to need to have something on hand. Otherwise, you're like. But George! All my money is in the savings and loan. You're going to need to have some cash. More in just a minute.

(music)

No, it's not. Not good.

Stu just said, I have an old pre-1979 car, but it's British. Nope. Won't do. You can fix it, but you will just fix it again tomorrow. Listen to this. Car Shield. Car Shield can help you.

The -- the problem is, is that we look at the today problems. Not the future problems.

And the future problems are the ones you're looking at, that always spring up. And you're like, what? Here's the way to beat inflation or high cost of your automobile. Carshield.com/Beck. It's an insurance policy, really for your car. When your warranty runs out. This is health insurance for your car. You will save 10 percent, if you sign up for it now. They have all kinds of different plans you can pick from. But you also lock in the pricing forever. So as long as you own that car, you don't get a price increase. No matter what they're being charged, Car Shield pays for it. And you don't pay anymore. Lock this price in. 800-391-8888. 800-391-8888. Carshield.com/Beck.

STU: All the details on how to prepare were on the show last night. Don't miss it. BlazeTV.com/Glenn. The promo code is the Alamo.

(OUT AT 9:28AM)

GLENN: This is the Glenn Beck Program. I'm going through some things I went through last night on the Wednesday night special. About what is coming, and how to prepare. It's not to freak anybody out. Well, let me just tell you this. This might freak you out. We all survive, okay? Most of us. We survive. Make it through this. It's going to be bumpy and rough. But we've done it before. Humans have done this before. We are very -- literally and figuratively, out of shape. We don't understand -- don't waste. We don't understand reuse. Repair. We don't get that. We are a very disposable group of people. The head of BlackRock came out, what was it? Last week, and said, you know, this is a generation of people who just want everything now. And they've never had to deal with real need. And they've got a real eye-opening experience. Oh, well, thank you Mr. BlackRock. But we do. We all do. All of us. And I can't tell you -- hmm. You know what's weird? I do this show for everybody. But I know there are people that listen to this show differently. Have ears that hear and eyes that see. And so I hope you're in that category. But if you are, and I take this medicine myself, believe me. We have to be in shape. We have to have our bodies in shape. It's going to be harder for medicine. And everything else. There will be shortages of things. So we just need to be as healthy as we can be. Eat the right things. And be as -- and do that mind, body, and spirit. It's critical. And sometime in the future, I'll explain why. But start on that now. Buy a house. Buy property. Don't overspend. Don't get crazy. But don't be afraid of the future. Don't be afraid of the future. You have to move on -- everything I'm doing right now, has a double purpose. If it doesn't serve now and through a storm, I don't do it. I've changed a lot here recently. I feel strongly, that the seasons have changed. And -- and with it, I am shockingly, to myself changing as well.

STU: Because you've talked about the Case-Shiller Index. And how it is right now. This is a very overheated housing market. Right now, is it the time to buy?

GLENN: I guess -- I don't want to give anybody financial advice. What I'm trying to say, I guess. Is don't -- don't spend your days, worrying about tomorrow. Do the next right thing. Okay? Understand that what's coming tomorrow, is unlike anything we've witnessed in our lifetime. Unless you lived through the Great Depression. We have not witnessed anything like this before. And so you've got to think out of the box. That's why our grandparents were so afraid. Because they didn't think that kind of stuff could happen. And then it happened. And they were pretty prepared for things. Because they lived, you know, on farms. They canned and everything else. So they weathered that storm. But it freaked them out, so much. That all the way until my who can't understand parents died, they were still saving every scrap. Every can. Every -- wrapping paper. They always saved all of. And they used to say, you don't know how fast it can come. Well, we don't. We don't even think it can come. So stop all excess spending. Stop spending on stupid stuff. And when you do buy things, buy quality. You've got to teach your kids, and maybe yourself, don't buy things with holes in it, okay? Because you'll earn those holes. Those clothes will have holes in it eventually. Measure twice, cut once. Consider fuel efficient trucks and SUVs. If you can find them. Make -- get off electronics as much as you can. Make paper copies of all of your paper documents. Know where the deeds are to anything that you own. Learn to use a map. Teach your kids on how to use a map and then have maps. When it comes to business. If you are -- somebody else's employee, be the one employee, that no one can fire. Be the Swiss army knife. Whatever needs to be done, do it. Don't wait for anybody to ask. You see something, do it. Be the American worker, that we used to be. If you are in business for yourself, be the product or the service, that no one can cancel. Stay in business, just preserve. Preserve, preserve. Honesty, integrity, and charity. Needs -- it's paramount in business. And really, in life. No one is going to know who to trust, in -- unless you have engaged in honesty, if you have integrity, and you are known as a charitable, kind, helpful person. You're -- you're not going to help anybody. Because nobody is going to listen to anybody. You need to be known as a source of good and light. This is a conversation we're having with my kids right now. I'm not sending you to school. You want to go to school. Fine. You pay for it. But I'm not paying for your destruction. Also, I don't think everybody needs to have those -- the higher education. I'm not enamored by Yale or Harvard or Columbia. I don't really care. I don't really care. Did you learn what you needed to learn. Now, I mean if you're a doctor, meaning, an actual hands in someone's chest doctor, yeah. I want you to go to the best schools. But there is something to be said for trade schools as well. My son wants to eventually build his own car. Good. You should start with knowing how to change a spark plug. And mechanics, and people who can fix things. They are going to be wanted and needed. Forget all of this crap, that that's beneath my son. No, it's not. Teach your kids, college is not a given. Educate yourself at all times. Always be reading and have hard copies of important books. Learn old or lost practices. Mending. Canning. Farming. Fixing an engine. Serve and share in your life. This one has taken on new meaning to me, recently. I understand this now more deeply than I ever have.

I am -- I'm -- I'm a guy who, I like to collect stuff. I mean, you watch the show last night. I showed you the missile collection, that I have, from Russia. Russian missiles, that they're actually using now, on the Ukrainians. I have a bunch of them. And I have a bunch of stuff, that the Ukrainians were using to fight the Russians, just to be able to tell the story, visually. I love collecting stuff.

Yeah. Every dollar I make, and I would encourage you to think this way. Every dollar you now make, needs to be viewed as sacred money. What can I do, to help build up -- straight with you. Remember when I said, Stu. When I started talking like this, you'll know. I think -- I think I'm there. You need to think about your money as building up the kingdom of God. You need to start preparing the way. And -- and don't spend money, on stupid stuff. Because we -- we're going to need each other. Teach your children, the things that matter. Forget about running them to soccer practice, if you're not teaching them values and principles. Teach those things first. Do less -- do with less now. It will help your family take the shock a lot better. Read the Bible. Plan. Pray. Listen. Obey.

Have a gun. Know how to shoot it. Have ammunition. Understand that anger is a part of your life. This is so important. Anger will be a part of life. But never feed it. Be honorable in all of your dealings. Especially when nobody is going to know. Be honorable at all times. And be optimistic and happy. Because life does go on. Life is going to get really good. Should we choose? Life is going to get really good. It's going to suck on the way there. But it is going to get good. Make plans for the future. Get married. Have children. Don't listen to people who say, you're going to bring them up in a world like this? Yeah. Because they were -- they were meant to be born at this time. I'm telling you now, our children -- our children are important. And they were born for this time. And they will be able to help heal and rebuild. They are critical. Don't buy into the lie.

Salena Zito reveals WHY Trump said “Fight! Fight! Fight!”

“I have a new purpose,” then-candidate Donald Trump told reporter Salena Zito after surviving the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Salena joins Glenn Beck to reveal what Trump told her about God, his purpose in life, and why he really said, “Fight! Fight! Fight!”, as she details in her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland”.

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Salena, congratulations on your book. It is so good.

Just started reading it. Or listening to it, last night.

And I wish you would have -- I wish you would have read it. But, you know, the lady you have reading it is really good.

I just enjoy the way you tell stories.

The writing of this is the best explanation on who Trump supporters are. That I think I've ever read, from anybody.

It's really good.

And the description of your experience there at the edge of the stage with Donald Trump is pretty remarkable as well. Welcome to the program.

SALENA: Thank you, Glenn. Thank you so much for having me.

You know, I was thinking about this, as I was ready to come on. You and I have been along for this ride forever. For what?

Since 2006? 2005?

Like 20 years, right?

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

SALENA: And I've been chronicling the American people for probably ten more years, before that. And it's really remarkable to me, as watching how this coalition has grown. Right?

And watching how people have the -- have become more aspirational.

And that's -- and that is what the conservative populist coalition is, right?

It is the aspirations of many, but the celebration of the individual.

And chronicling them, yeah. Has been -- has been, a great honor.

GLENN: You know, I was thinking about this yesterday, when -- when Elon Musk said he was starting another party.

And somebody asked me, well, isn't he doing what the Tea Party tried to do?

No. The Tea Party was not going to start a new party.

It was to -- you know, it was to coerce and convince the Republican Party to do the right thing. And it worked in many ways. It didn't accomplish what we hoped.

But it did accomplish a lot of things.

Donald Trump is a result of the Tea Party.

I truly believe that. And a lot of the people that were -- right?

Were with Donald Trump, are the people that were with the Tea Party.

SALENA: That's absolutely right.

So that was the inception.

So American politics has always had movements, that have been just outside of a party. Or within a party.

That galvanize and broaden the coalition. Right? They don't take away. Or walk away, and become another party.

If anything, if there is a third party out there, it's almost a Republican Party.

Because it has changed in so many viable and meaningful ways. And the Tea Party didn't go away. It strengthened and broadened the Republican Party. Because these weren't just Republicans that became part of this party.

It was independents. It was Democrats.

And just unhappy with the establishment Republicans. And unhappy with Democrats.

And that -- that movement is what we -- what I see today.

What I see every day. What I saw that day, in butler, when I showed I happen at that rally.

As I do, so many rallies, you know, throughout my career. And that one was riveting and changed everything.

GLENN: You made a great case in the opening chapter. You talk about how things were going for Donald Trump.

And how this moment really did change everything for Donald Trump.

Changed the trajectory, changed the mood.

I mean, Elon Musk was not on the Trump train, until this.

SALENA: Yeah.

GLENN: Moment. What do I -- what changed? How -- how did that work?

And -- and I contend, that we would have much more profound change, had the media actually done their job and reported this the way it really was. Pragmatism

SALENA: You know, and people will find this in the book. I'm laying on the ground with an agent on top of me.

I'm 4 feet away from the president.

And there's -- there's notices coming up on my phone. Saying, he was hit by broken glass.

And to this take, that remains part of this sibling culture, in American politics.

Because reporters were -- were so anxious to -- to right what they believed happened.

As opposed to what happened.

And it's been a continual frustration of mine, as a reporter, who is on the ground, all the time.

And I'll tell you, what changed in that moment.

And I say a nuance, and I believe nuance is dead in American journalism.

But it was a nuance and it was a powerful conversation, that I had with President Trump, the next day. He called me the next morning.

But it's a powerful conversation I had with him, just two weeks ago.

When he made this decision to say, fight, fight, fight.

People have put in their heads, why they think he said it. But he told me why he said that. And he said, Salena, in that moment, I was not Donald Trump the man. I was a former president. I was quite possibly going to be president again.

And I had an obligation to the country, and to the office that I have served in, to project strength. To project resolve.

To project that we will not be defeated.

And it's sort of like a symbolic eagle, that is always -- you know, that symbol that we look at, when we think about our country.

He said, that's why I said that. I didn't want the people behind me panicking. I didn't want the people watching, panicking.

I had to show strength. And it's that nuance -- that I think people really picked up on.

And galvanized people.

GLENN: So he told me, when he was laying down on the stage.

And you can hear him. Let me get up. Let me get up.

I've got to get up.

He told me, as I was laying on the stage. I asked him, what were you thinking? What was going through your head? Now, Salena, I don't know about you.

But with me. It would be like, how do I get off the stage? My first was survival.

He said, what was going on through his mind was, you're not pathetic. This is pathetic.

You're not afraid. Get up.

Get up.

And so is that what informed his fight, fight, fight, of that by the time that he's standing up, he's thinking, I'm a symbol? Or do you think he was thinking, I'm a symbol, this looks pathetic. It makes you look weak.

Stand up. How do you think that actually happened?

SALENA: He thinks, and we just talked about this weeks ago. He -- you know, and this is something that he's really thought about.

Right? You know, he's gone over and over and over. And also, purpose and God. Right? These are things that have lingered with him.

You know, he -- he thought, yes.

He did think, it was pathetic that he was on the ground. But he wasn't thinking about, I'm Donald Trump. It's pathetic.

He's thinking, my country is symbolically on the ground. I need to get up, and I need to show that my country is strong.

That our country is resolute.

And I need people to see that.

We can't go on looking like pathetic.

Right?

And I think that then goes to that image of Biden.

GLENN: You have been with so many presidents.

How many presidents do you think that you've personally been with, would have thought that and reacted that way?

SALENA: Probably only Reagan. Reagan would have. Reagan probably would have thought that.

And if you remember how he was out like standing outside.

You know, waving out the window. Right?

After he was shot.

GLENN: At the hospital, right.

SALENA: Had he not been knocked out, unconscious, you know, he probably would have done the same thing.

Because he was someone who deeply believed in American exceptionalism.

And American exceptionalism does not go lay on the ground.

GLENN: And the symbol.

Right. The symbol of the presidency.

SALENA: Yeah. Absolutely. And I think that affects him today.

GLENN: So let me go back to God.

Because you talked to him the next day. And your book Butler.

He calls you up.

I love the fact that your parents would be ashamed of you. On what you said to him.

The language you used. That you just have to read the book.

It's just a great part.

But he calls you the next morning. And wants to know if you're okay.

And you -- you then start talking to him, about God.

And I was -- I was thinking about this, as I was listening to it. You know, Lincoln said, I wasn't -- I wasn't a Christian.

Even though, he was.

I wasn't a Christian, when I was elected. I wasn't a Christian when my son died.

I became a Christian at Gettysburg.

Is -- is -- I mean, I believe Donald Trump always believes in God, et cetera, et cetera.

Do you think there was a real profound change at Butler with him?

SALENA: Absolutely. You know, he called me seven times that day. Seven times, the take after seven.

GLENN: Crazy.

SALENA: Talked about. And I think he was looking for someone that he knew, that was there. And to try to sort it out.

Right? And I let him do most of the talking. I didn't pressure him.

At all. I believed that he was having -- you know, he was struggling. And he needed to just talk. And I believed my purpose was to listen.

Right? I know other reporters would have handled it differently. And that's okay. That's not the kind of reporter that I am.

And I myself was having my own like, why didn't I die?

Right?

Because it went right over my head.

And -- and so I -- he had the conversation about God.

He's funny. I thought it was the biggest mosquito in the world that hit me.

But he had talked profoundly about purpose. You know, and God.

And how God was in that moment.

It --

GLENN: I love the way you -- in the book, I love the way you said that as he's kind of working it out in his own he head.

He was like, you know, I -- I -- I always knew that there was some sort of, you know -- that God was present.

He said, but now that this has happened.

I look back at all of the trials.

All of the tribulations. Literally, the trials.

All of the things that have happened. And he's like, I realized God was there the whole time.

SALENA: Yes. He does. And it's fascinating to have been that witness to history, to have those conversations with him. Because I'm telling you. And y'all know, I can talk. I didn't say much of anything.

I just -- I just listened. I felt that was my purpose, in that moment.

To give him that space, to work it out.

I'm someone that is, you know, believes in God.

I'm Catholic. I followed my faith.

And -- and so, I thought, well, this is why God put me here. Right?

And to -- to have that -- to hear him talk about purpose, to hear him say, Salena. Why did I put a chart down?

I'm like, sir. I don't know. I thought you were Ross Perot for a second.

He never has a chart. And he laughed. And then he said, why did I put that chart down?

By that term, I never turned my head away from people at the rally. That's true.

That relationship is very transactional. It's very -- they feed off of each other.

It's a very emotive moment when you attend a rally. Because he has a way of talking at a rally. That you believe that you are seeing.

And he said, and I never turn my head away.

I never turn my head away.

Why did I turn my head away?

I don't remember consciously thinking about turning my head away. And then he says to me, that was God, wasn't it?

Yes, sir. It was. It was God.

And he said, that's -- that's why I have a new purpose.

And so, Glenn. I think it's important, when you look at the breadth of what has happened, since he was sworn in.

You see that purpose, every day.

He doesn't let up.

He continues going.

And it brings back to the beginning of the book.

Where you find out, that there was another president that was shot at in Butler.

And that was George Washington. And how different the country would have been, had he died in that moment.

And now think about how different the country would be, had President Trump died in that moment. There would be --

GLENN: We're talking to -- we're talking to Salena Zito. About her new book called Butler. The assassination attempt on President Trump. And it is riveting.

And, you know, it is so good. I wish the press would read it. Because it really explains who we are, who Trump supporters are. Who are, you know, red staters. It is so good at that. She's the best at that.

The REAL reason Pam Bondi should RESIGN

Glenn Beck makes the case that Attorney General Pam Bondi should resign over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation - not because of any potential cover-up, but solely because of how incompetent her rollout of the investigation has been.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. I want Pam Bondi fired. I want Pam Bondi fired.

STU: This escalated quickly.

GLENN: And here's why. Here's why. Do you release a tape that is supposed to be the evidence, do you release the tape, and then let the public find out for themselves, that there's an edit in the tape?

STU: That's an excusable mistake. I mean, I don't know that she did it, I guess.

GLENN: You know what, it could have been just a digital jump in the tape.

It's a minute lost. Okay?

So let's just say -- let's just give them every benefit of the doubt, and say, it was just a digital jump in the tape.

Okay?

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: Do you not put an intern on it, just to say, watch the clock!

And make sure there's no jumps or edit in the tape.

Because we know.

STU: Everyone is going to watch.

GLENN: 300 million people will be watching it. And somebody will take the time to watch the clock.

So watch the clock.

Is every minute accounted for? You didn't do that? You didn't do that.

STU: I think you can pretty easily say, that if you wanted to, right?

And your goal was -- you wanted to edit out -- it would be very easy to edit in a minute of footage.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: And that no one knows. Just make the clock continuous.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: It would be clear.

If you were trying to cover that, it would be --

GLENN: This is incompetence.

STU: However, highlighting your point to incompetence. At the very least, if you have a jump, you say at the beginning. There's an error at this point.

This is -- we know this is there.

You know, the fact that you release it as proof without acknowledging that minute is -- I just don't understand how you can make a mistake like that.

When your goal here is supposedly to put everyone's mind at ease.

I don't know. I don't know.

But there's more to it, than that.

GLENN: Hang on just a second.

Let me go back to before we leave. Just this one.

Remember when I said yesterday, your wife finds receipts for you buying presents at Tiffany's that she never got.

That, you know, you were in a hotel that she never came to.

You were -- you were not coming home for dinner. You had long weekends and everything else. It doesn't mean you were cheating.

STU: And a traveling jewelry investor.

GLENN: Right. But she -- she should demand the evidence, because it -- you don't want that hanging there. On your relationship.

It will just fester.

Now, you give her the evidence. But then she finds out that, oh. Well, it's the wrong receipt.

It was a -- it was a receipt, you know, that you explained away. But what you -- what you used as proof, was not the same receipt.

You were like, no.

See, honey. This is when we went to the hotel, together.

And she looks at it. And she's like, oh, okay.

And then she has it for a while. And she looks at it.

Like, wait a minute. The date is different on this one. This is not the same receipt.

That's a problem! That's a problem.

And it doesn't mean that he was cheating on you.

It just means. What the hell is going on?

Are you this stupid?

STU: And it would certainly make you have legitimate questions about --

GLENN: It just makes you question things for. Now, if it wasn't for the jump in the tape. And I'm not even going to call it an edit. Because I don't think it was an edit. I think it was jump in the tape. As if the jump in the tape wasn't incompetent enough for you, listen to this one. Jason is here with us.

Hi, Jason.

JASON: Hi, Glenn. What a morning, wow.

GLENN: What a morning it is, wow.

So, Jason, what else have you found?

JASON: Okay. So the more and more we looked at this tape.

I started looking.

It was weird. Because it looked like a janitor's closet.

Door 26.

And you were like, shut up, this is not a janitor's closet. I don't know what this is.

But I was like, I can tell you, there's a woman that looks like a janitor that comes out and supposedly the person that that they're saying is his cell. Which they're not, by the way. This was people on social media was saying, this is his cell.

Was coming out with a trash can.
So I looked around to see, if there was any confirmation of what this cell was.

I found an OIG report from the Justice Department two years ago, that shows the camera angle, and the one camera that was actually working.

So you can see the diagram, and I think we actually have it if you're watching this right now. There's a diagram that shows where this camera is.
It shows where Epstein's cell is. And the big thing that stands out, Glenn, is this camera does not even have eyes on Epstein's cell at all. Like, not at all.

STU: Incredible.
JASON: There's four different wings here. There is a service wing. And that's what we're looking at, with the Door 46.

That's a service entrance, or staff entrance. Now, you can't see on the lower level of Epstein's cell at all.

So this is what it makes it look even crazier for that one minute that's missing.

And I will say -- that okay. Let me just say it this way.

I've spent years and years and years, looking at surveillance and security camera footage as you know, in my previous job.

I've never seen an over one-minute jump right at a time that would be very, very I don't know, just convenient.

I've never seen that before. In all my years looking at these things.

STU: There's no reason. Why would you say that minute would be convenient? You're just saying, that one minute being gone could be convenient.

JASON: It's convenient in this entire time frame.

Based on this camera angel.

It's convenient, that 60 seconds would be great for someone walking across that lower level.

60 seconds would be perfect if you wanted to conceal the fact that someone would have worked across that area. That's why --

GLENN: Here's why -- here's why I didn't buy into this, at first.

Okay. Sixty seconds, to open the door, kill him. And then leave.

Okay?

But look at the diagram. If you look at the diagram, where the camera is, there is a -- just a -- maybe a foot space, where the camera is not able to see. Where there is a door, from the staff area.

Okay?

STU: Are you looking at -- because I think -- it's hard to tell from this.

Are you looking -- is this diagram the top floor or the bottom floor.

Jason, do you have any idea?

JASON: So I think Epstein is on.

STU: The upper floors. Right.

GLENN: Okay. So I'm looking at where the staff area is, okay. See the yellow triangle and the red box, where it's his cell.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: Okay. So there is one way out of the staff area. And it's right below the camera.

STU: Like underneath the floor, essentially, of where the camera is.

GLENN: Yeah. On the floor. If the camera is up on a ceiling. Is that what you -- what -- you're saying.

STU: Yeah. The camera is -- the camera is from on the second floor, shooting down.

And the evidence that they're basically proclaiming here. And this is true.

You know, what Jason is saying, is true.

That you can't see the door of the Epstein cell. What you can see is a common area, that in theory, you would need to cross to get to the cell.

STU: What you're saying, Glenn. The camera does not actually show 100 percent of the potential paths to get there. Right?

JASON: It doesn't.

STU: If you cross right in front of the banister here on the bottom floor.

GLENN: There's no way you will see.

Okay. So wait a minute. I just want to make sure. We are talking about the same thing. If you look at the videotape, it's the white room, down stairs.

Right? And so it's where the garbage can is, down there.

STU: Below that.

GLENN: So Epstein's room would be below the garbage can.

STU: No. Epstein's room, if you look out -- the area that you can see.

And I apologize for radio listeners here that aren't seeing the visual. But I want to make sure we get this right.

There's an open area, where the banister is, and it shows the common area behind it. Right?

If you go on the right side of the common area from our view.

Outside of the view, to the right. Is where the entrance to the cell is.

The stairs up to the cell.

GLENN: So all you have to do. You don't have to cross the floor.

Why do you have to cross the floor? You can go through the door. You can go through the door, and see. And just stay against the wall.

STU: Yeah. I guess, maybe.

And Jason, maybe you know this.

Maybe it's explained somewhere else in the report.

Is it possible that they're saying, all the other entrances, to get to that area, have cameras. So they didn't see anybody walking into those areas.

GLENN: Why wouldn't you show the other --

STU: Right.

GLENN: You know, this is not proof that anybody did anything.

STU: No!

GLENN: This is proof, they're -- Pam Bondi needs to be fired.

Who is rolling this out?

The Little Rascals.

Panky, look, I've got some videotape. What are you doing? This is ridiculous!

This is such absolute incompetence! Incompetence.

STU: It's incredible. The fact that they would release that because I think everybody had the same -- even Jason, as a super-duper skeptic on this, even you had the assumption that what they were saying was, the green doors were the cells, or at least the cell area.

GLENN: Right, that's what I thought.

STU: That's what everyone thought, when they saw it. Now, to be clear, the report, as you pointed out, Jason. Previously had stated in June, this diagram that shows they're talking about the common area.

So that's not like -- but like, they, A, should have been very clear about that. What they're talking about is the common area.

They shouldn't put that in the announcement.

GLENN: Stu, we're going upstairs today.

Okay? To my house. And, you know, I have that balcony, upstairs by the fireplace.

Where you haven't -- like at midnight last night.

Because it's like a day's journey from anywhere.

GLENN: Right. But we're going to go upstairs. And you put a camera, okay? Down into the great room.

STU: Right. You want to recreate it in your house.

GLENN: I do. And I want to show you, I can get to places in the room, as long -- because there's a whole floor.

The balcony shows part, but it doesn't show the door.

I can -- wait until -- I got to prove, that we're going to do this live on YouTube, or something on -- maybe on X today, as soon as we get off the air.

Because I -- this is ridiculous.

STU: It's unbelievable. Again, it doesn't prove that this -- you know, he was killed.

However, it is -- the fact that they're releasing a video that has this many holes to it, to a passing -- again, the person you're trying to make feel better about all of this is someone very interested in the detail of it. Right?

It's not someone who has a passing interest. You're not releasing this to some person who kind of knows who Jeffrey Epstein is. This is intentionally designed to try to push down some weird argument as a conspiracy theory.

GLENN: You're also -- also -- and, you know what, I'm not arguing anything.

I'm arguing this is incompetence.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: I'm not arguing that he killed himself.

Or he didn't kill -- I don't know!

I don't know. I don't know.

But this isn't helping.

You know, not only are you saying, that these people have some interest in it.

Well, you know, these people are interested in the details.

No!

You're releasing it to a bumbling of people, who many of them have the details. But many of them are hostile to what you're saying.

So you better have a buttoned up case.

STU: Right.

GLENN: You better not have anything that they find out later, wait. Wait a minute.

What?

STU: Right. And it could be -- you know, you could make the couple of arguments that you probably could make here.

One, they don't actually care about this. And they're annoyed they have to deal with it.

So they threw it out there.

Terrible incompetence. If that's the truth. That's inexcusable.

The other thing they might argue. And this could be part of it.

There were reports at least, that this got leaked. That this came out essentially earlier than they wanted it to.

So the rollout was not as planned, as they thought it was going to be.

Axios reported this exclusively. Now, it's possible, they linked it to Axios.

It's not exactly a typical location of a Trump leak.

GLENN: Who? The Justice Department, or the FBI? That's what I want to know.

First of all, this administration has no leaks. We just bombed Iran without any leaks.

STU: Yeah. Different -- different wing of the government. Still, I get what you're saying.

GLENN: Yeah, right.

STU: A lot of this has been tight.

But there does seem to be.

You know, there's a lot of big personalities. There's always reported squabbling going on.

Who knows how this was released and who didn't.

That may be true. That part of the rollout was heard.

Right? Because it was released when they were ready. That might be true.

It still doesn't really explain. The video is a video.

They definitely posted it. They posted it like that. They posted it -- they had a memo that explained what the video was, and did not mention anything like that. That mentioned the --

GLENN: That's all you have to do.

Hey, there's a one minute jump. Here's why it's there.

STU: Again, even with that explanation, which would making me happier.

Right? That it's available.

It still wouldn't make a person who believes in this theory.

GLENN: Right. I can tell you -- I can tell you for a fact, nothing is going to satisfy everyone.

STU: Right.

GLENN: But you at least have to try to make the easy things go away.

Will Medicaid cuts KILL Americans? Glenn reveals the FACTS!

Democrats claim that the Big, Beautiful Bill will take Medicaid and Medicare away from many Americans and even “kill” people. But is any of this true? Glenn Beck and Stu Burguiere review just the facts and explain who’s actually affected by the changes.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Can I address some of the hyperbole around the big, beautiful bill, just a little bit.

If there's anything in the big, beautiful bill to worry about, it's the increase in spending.

Because the spending ourself into oblivion is an actual threat.

To the country. But that's not what anybody is talking about. What everybody seems to be talking about is the tax cuts. Which were already there. Or the tax cuts like no tax for tips. Which you would think the party of the little people. You know, the Democrats. Would all be for. But they're not.

Because they're not party of the little people anymore. And those had to be offset.

Okay. Offset. By what?

Well, by cutting spending. But cutting what spending?

Not cutting spending. Let me just say this. If I said, you know, I made $250,000 a year. And this year, we were going to spend $300,000.
Okay?

And you would say, immediately, Glenn. You can't do that.

And I would say, I've been doing that for 30 years. Okay. You might say, the bank is not going to give a loan.

But then if I came to you and said, yeah. I'm spending $300,000 a year. And my wife and I make 250 or 200,000 a year. But, you know, next year, I was going to spend $500,000.

Did you get a raise? No. I didn't get a raise. I still make 250,000 dollars a year between my wife and I.

But I'm going to spend 500 and not 300. And then somebody came in, like an accountant with some muscle.

And they said, Glenn, you cannot spend $500,000 a year!

Would it make sense if I went back to spending 300, not 200, which I had.

But 300, which I had been spending every year, would it make sense to you to -- for me to say, my children are now going to starve? My children are now going to starve.

Look at the austerity program that I am on.

My gosh, they just -- no. They didn't cut anything. They must cut thinking.

They cut the increase inning spending.

That's what they cut.

And, Stu, could you please explain Medicare.

I mean, all of the people. I know they warned us.

I didn't believe the death squads would actually go out.

And, you know, they want these people off Medicare so badly.

Or Medicaid.

They just sent out death squads. Trump is not waiting for them to die, because he's not waiting for them to get their prescriptions now he just wants them slaughtered in the street.

STU: Yeah, that's the efficiency of the Trump administration. He wants these people dead so badly, he's just killing them in the streets. Actually, no, none of that is happening.

And the Medicaid cuts as you point out, are largely cuts to future increases that have not occurred.

The biggest chunk of this is the work requirements. You've heard this, Glenn.

And, you know, I went through this. And I was like, this can't possibly be what they mean.

I said, wait a minute. When they say work requirement cuts, what does that mean?

So I dove into it a little bit. Basically, what they're saying, you, if you're an able-bodied adult, so that does not include old people, does not include people who are sick and can't work. And it also does not include people who have small children, even if they are able-bodied.

And when I say small, I mean 12 and under. So if you have a 12-year-old. You're completely exempt from this.

But able-bodied adults.

GLENN: Okay. On people in wheelchairs.

STU: No. Gosh, again, I know this is tough. Yeah, this is where it gets difficult.

GLENN: Wait. I'm having a hard time following this. What now?.

STU: So you're an able-bodied adult, that does not have small children.

GLENN: No small children.

STU: You would be required to get Medicaid, to work 20 hours a week.

Now, you might --

GLENN: Twenty hours a week.

STU: Or 80 hours a month.

GLENN: Or 80 hours a month.

That's almost half a full-time job.

STU: Now, you might say to yourself. And this is actually true.

Some people can't get jobs. Right?

I'm sure, there are people trying to get part-time jobs. And maybe can't get them.

Those people will just lose their Medicaid. Well, as you may understand.

Of course not.

Because what you have to do then is go through a process, that you're basically telling them, you're attempting to get a job. Or you're volunteering somewhere, to meet that requirement.

So basically, you have to fill out -- yeah. It's like unemployment.

You have to at least fill out some paperwork here.

GLENN: It's the exact opposite.

Let me see if I have this right.

It's the exact opposite of unemployment which we've had forever.

Which if you're looking for a job, but can't get it. You can still have unemployment.

But it's the exact opposite. Right?

Especially if you're nursing sextuplets.

STU: Again, you're not very close to the truth.

You're a little bit off on this one.

GLENN: No. Huh!

STU: By the way, Glenn, you might say to yourself, wait. How is that a Medicaid cut?

Because they're not cutting anyone's eligibility here. Unless they don't want to meet the requirement.

Of course, there's always been requirements to all of these programs.

So meeting the requirements have always been part of getting on to Medicaid.

This requirement, if you decide basically not to do it. And not participate. And not fill out the paperwork.

Then, yes. You will lose your Medicaid coverage.

What they're saying, hold on. All right.

GLENN: No. I just want to make sure I have it right.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: If you are blind, you're deaf.

STU: No. Again, no.

GLENN: You have no friends, and you can't get out of the house, and you've been on Medicaid, somehow or another, you signed up for that. But now, you don't even know, because you can't hear the news. You certainly can't fill out a form. Because you have no eyes.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: They just come in and rip your Medicaid away?

STU: No. None of what you said is accurate.

Though, it is calm considering some of the accusations -- comparisons made bit left right now.

But, yeah.

So if you are an able-bodied adult that decides, you know what, I don't feel like filling out the paperwork, or I don't feel like going to job interviews, or I don't feel like volunteering, then yes. You could lose -- but that's what they're saying the cuts are.

They think 317 billion dollars worth of people will not bother doing those things. For whatever reason. Maybe because they had more money than they said. Maybe because they're lazy.

Maybe because -- I'm sure there's some case where some -- I don't know.

I can't think of the case.

GLENN: Blind person.

STU: Because the ailments are covered here.

But, yes. Maybe it's some particular skin color. Then they would reject you.

I don't know.

And it's not just that. There are other cuts. For example, some of the cuts are, they're eliminate duplicate Medicaid enrollment.

If you happen to have Medicaid.

GLENN: I can't double-dip.

STU: In two different states. They're going to try to stop you from having it in two states.

And instead, make you have it one state. Uh-huh.

GLENN: Hold on just one second.

I have two legs. I have two arms. I have two eyes. I have two nostrils. I have two ears.

I can't have two Medicaid coverages. It's insane!

STU: I know.

It's really, really brutal.

GLENN: I have two kidneys. I can only have one kidney now, you know, repaired?

STU: Now --

GLENN: Is that what you're saying?

STU: That's not what I'm saying. But, yes. I'm sure that's what's being reported out there by Dana Bash.

Another one, I will give you here, Glenn. They talked about immigrants.

You know, immigrants getting on their Medicaid cut. Now, this is tough. What this bill does, I want you to hold on to your hat here, Glenn.

GLENN: Okay.

STU: If you have green card holders and other certain immigrants, some will lose their coverage. Or actually, sorry, eligibility will -- retain for those people.

Certain other immigrants may lose their coverage. The current law says, all who are lawfully present.

That will kick in after a -- how many year waiting period?

Let me guess, it's a five-year waiting period.

So it will be the next president who has to deal with this, when future Congress will just put it right back in. And it's not a savings at all.

And then you have Medicaid death checks. They're going to require --

GLENN: They're checking on whether your debt? Look at this! It's crazy.

STU: It's brutal. It really is.

GLENN: You're going to kick all of the immigrants off in five years.

STU: No.

GLENN: And then you're checking to see if old people are dead!

When will you leave these people alone?

STU: I know. So, anyway, we can go through this stuff all day. But as you point out, most of this stuff is not at all, what the left is saying it is.

It's not the desperate Medicaid cuts that are going to ruin everybody's lives. A lot of them are just really common sense stuff, making sure you don't have them in two states. I don't know what the positive argument is for that. But they'll make it.

GLENN: Well, they don't have one. That's why they don't make it about that.
