3 ways Biden’s AWFUL foreign policy puts us ALL IN DANGER

Glenn wants to know why some Americans continue to trust U.S. leaders in power who have destroyed so much over the last two years. For example, President Biden already has proven to the world his foreign policy inadequacies. But now, it’s getting even WORSE. In this clip, Glenn details recent ways America's far-left leadership is putting us ALL in danger with AWFUL foreign policy decisions. From rocky relationships with China and Saudi Arabia, to Putin and Russia, our leaders are putting us ALL at risk, Glenn says.

GLENN: So yesterday, if you remember, my head was going to explode, because why are we allowing California to dictate everything to the rest of the nation? Okay. Remember?

They want to do that. Okay. Let them feel the full consequence. Why are they dragging us along with it? Yeah.

Today, my question is this: Why do we keep listening to people who got us into the same situation. Why are we listening?

Here's Janet Yellen yesterday, on our economy.

VOICE: We still the inactive covid in China and the slowdown in Chinese growth.

GLENN: Yeah.

VOICE: And with high inflation and tightening monetary policy in many advanced countries.

GLENN: Yeah. Like ours.

VOICE: Emerging markets from all of these factors are suffering many stresses. So there's a lot to talk about. But from the perspective of the United States, I think the United States is doing very well.

GLENN: Wow. We're doing very well. Other countries have high inflation, tight money. Their central banks are tightening the money fly. Which is driving interest rates up. And they're having supply problems. But us, no, I think we're doing really -- why are we listening to her? Why are we listening?

Now, let's go to the genius, that is actually behind the wheel, driving this car, over the cliff. Our president. What does he think about what's coming economically?

VOICE: Should the American people prepare for a recession?

VOICE: No. They've been saying this every six months, they've been saying this. Every six months they look down the next six months and say what's going to happen. It hasn't happened yet. There is no -- there's no guarantee, that they're -- I don't think there will be a recession. If there is, there will be a slight recession. That is, we'll move down slightly.

GLENN: Okay. All right.

Now, maybe perhaps, I want to give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe. Because there is one industry, that has just -- I mean, has -- has made so much money. Hand over fist.

It is such a growing industry, that maybe he's thinking, well, you know, GDP is threatened by the fentanyl and human trafficking industry. Jobs. It's not hard to find a job there.

You're willing to human traffic people, because of the border? Don't worry.

STU: Here, an Eastern European hooker, his son has really helped to keep that economy going.

GLENN: Right. Right. Just because -- this is according to the Department of Homeland Security. Just because of what we have done on the border, there's only been a 500 percent increase in human smuggling. So, you know --

STU: Increase, that's good, right?

GLENN: That's good. America is doing really --

STU: We're number one.

GLENN: Now, I want to talk about those ear countries, that are having some problems. With loans becoming more expensive. Threatening jobs. Trouble with their oil and gas prices. High interest rates, and high inflation.

Unlike us. Unlike us. We're good. But let me talk about those countries. Top diplomat in the European Union Ambassador's Annual Conference says, that Europe has been decoupled, due to multiple black swan events. It says that it can no longer count on Russia for cheap gas and oil.

China, they were depending on cheap goods. And the United States, they depended on the United States, for security. And now they've lost all three. And, you know, now they're going to have to completely reimagine. Completely reimagine, how do you Europe has put together. Because it's broken. And they're not going to be able to do anything about it. They'll just have to reimagine high everything works. They're looking at now, an era of volatility, which is great. But, you know, the thing that I really like is, he said, you know, the United States and Europe had a fantastic relationship.

And we were cooperating a lot. And that situation, might change now. But I urge you to think, what would have happened, if instead of Joe Biden, this would have happened with Donald Trump or someone like him in the White House.

It wouldn't have happened with him in the White House. He was warning you of these things. And you laughed at him. But don't worry about it.

Because we're fine, according to Janet -- we're doing really -- I think we're on the upswing. We're doing really, really well.

Now, let's see, I want to count the enemies here. We're in a proxy war with Russia, right?

We're -- we're fighting with Ukraine. Which I think we're really all we're doing is laundering money through Ukraine.

We haven't made China too happy. Lately. But we also have had a very long ally. Saudi Arabia. Which I don't want to be tied to. Donald Trump was fixing that.

But then our -- our president, he got a little spicy with the -- with the sultan, or the prince over there.

And said, this guy is a thug and a criminal. And he has no place at the table. And I'm going to take care of him when I get in. So now, the president went over, and he said, hey. Can you guys maybe up the -- you know.

And they agreed, as he left. They agreed to 200,000 barrels. Which is nothing. 200,000 barrels.

And then the White House wrote a missive to the princess. You just broke your word to the president. What are you doing? You said 200. Now you're going to reduce it to 100. That kind of pissed the prince off. So he's like, yeah. You know what, I'll reduce it even more than that. Okay?

So they went -- the people who were there at the meeting, said that he was asking for oil. And he was asking, you know, just can you just boost it up a bit.

What's better, he was saying, and if you have to cut it, can you wait until after the election? That way, he could convince everybody, that we're on the move. Everything is good. And your gas prices are down. And then OPEC could lower the production of I'll. And then after you've made a decision of which side you trust to tell you the truth and help you along. Then after the election, then he can say, oh, my gosh. Look at what these evil Saudis are doing. Now, the president has come out and said, we didn't even talk about oil. Really? You didn't? Huh.

Because everybody that was in the meeting, says you talked about oil. But, no. You didn't.

And also, it was ridiculous, that we were going to reevaluate the relationship, if we cut the oil. Cut the oil.

The president who has on TV, that very day, has said, I think we need to reevaluate our relationship. So this is really good. Biden has now warned of consequences for Saudi Arabia. He vowed to hold Saudi Arabia accountable. He said, I'm not going to get into what I consider. And what I have in mind. But there will be consequences.

Good. Okay. All right. Well, you know, why not?

Why not throw that log on the fire? Oh, by the way, the other reason Saudi Arabia is so pissed of us, because of Joe Biden, is because he's making a deal with their mortal enemy, Iran.

So we have that going for us. So let's pick another fight there. Here's another fight we just picked too. You're going to love this.

We have decided to start all exports of our chips to China. Yeah. Yeah.

So the U.S. Department of Commerce introduced sweeping rules aimed at cutting China off, from obtaining or manufacturing key chips and components for supercomputers.

This is quoting, seen as a huge escalation. Huge escalation, in the tensions between Beijing and Washington.

America argues, that such advanced semi conductors can be used by China for advanced capabilities.

Do you think so? Quoting, the cofounder of the center for innovating the future.

There is no going back to the way things were. With the latest action, the chasm between the United States and China has now expanded to the point of no return.

This is great. So by cutting off the chips. Which I'm not arguing, we shouldn't be sending them stuff.

But right now, you know, might be kind of a dicey time to do it.

Now we're forcing them to have to take Taiwan. Because Taiwan is the maker of all of the most sophisticated chips.

In fact, I think they make 80 percent of the chips. So that's going to be really good, if they march into Taiwan. Because then guess who doesn't have any computer chips, yeah, us.

Oh, this is good. Oh, by the way. Last night, also, Biden doubled down on the warning of nuclear Armageddon.

Yesterday, he said it again, you know.

I don't think Putin will use a nuclear weapon. But, I mean, it could be nuclear Armageddon, if he does. Oh. Okay. That makes -- that makes it -- that makes it a much more acceptable and soothing, really to hear that news. Oh. And they also announced yesterday, that NATO is going to hold a nuclear deterrence exercise. Now, this is great. Have you ever heard of operation Able Archer? This is a great story. Don't worry, this was in our past. Able Archer was something we did every year. You know, right there on the border with Russia. We did it with NATO. It was a NATO nuclear deterrence test. And I'm going to take you way, way back to 1983.

Because what we did, we held this annual, every year we did it, annual exercise. And we had 100,000 personnel over there. 16,000 of which were flown in from the United States. And the exercise was to simulate, what are you going to do, if someone launches a nuke?

Now, the Soviet Union knew, this was just an exercise that we did every year. But Reagan had been a little spicy. Calling them a terrorist organization.

Saying, that they were an evil empire. And so they no longer trusted the United States, at all. Because they knew Ronald Reagan wanted them to collapse.

So what they did is they -- they had these new things called computers. And these computer programs, started to track. You know, they were there in Russia. And they were very sophisticated.

Russia had only the best computers. And the best software, programmers. And so as they were doing this, what happened was, it looked like we had launched a bunch of missiles on their computers.

And they were convinced, we launched a bunch of missiles.

It wasn't just the computer.

And they had, during the whole operation, they had all their planes out. With ten-minute warnings. And they had loaded all of their missiles. They had also taken all of their missiles out of the protected shelters.

Opened up the blast doors. They were ready to launch.

If it wasn't for the little red phone, hey. Call me.

We probably all would have been vaporized. But that has -- that maneuver, you know, the -- where they're -- where they're just trying to just have a military, you know, exercise. You know, that is just to see what we would do, if the Soviet Union would launch a nuclear deterrent. You know what would our deterrent be? What would we do?

You know, NATO got together. We did it every year. We haven't done it in a long time. But NATO has decided with the United States. Now is the time to try that again.

You know, because the trust is so high. These people are going to get us killed. Ever been in a situation like, I don't know.

You're driving. Incredible -- no. I got it. And he's swerving all around the world. And you're like, good God, we're going to die.

It's fine! I drive all the time. And I'm not drunk. That's when somebody says, stop the car. What are you talking about? We're almost home. In three minutes we'll be there. Stop the car. I'm either driving, or I'm getting out.

I wish we could get out. But we can't. What we can do is elect a new driver. You know, one that shouldn't have his license taken away. What do you say we do that, kids, in just a few weeks?

Hmm. We vote. Because all of his drunk friends are in the car too, going, hey. Shut up. He's fine. He's totally fine. Do you see what's happening? He's totally fine. Leave him alone. Let's get the friends out of the car. So then we can actually talk to the driver and see, hey, can you walk a straight line, dude?

Because you're going to get us all killed.

Trump FINALLY said the OBVIOUS part out loud

The media is furious because President Trump’s new National Security Strategy criticizes Europe...or they just misunderstand it. Glenn Beck reveals what this strategy actually says and why he’s ecstatic that someone is FINALLY saying these things!

GLENN: So at the Reagan National defense forum over the weekend, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dan Caine, Raizin Caine, hints at a possible conflict in our own neighborhood, and everyone is freaking out.

Here's cut one. Listen.

VOICE: Yeah, I mean, we -- we -- we have not.

If you have looked at the arc of our deployment history over the last few years, we haven't had a lot of American combat powering in our own neighborhood. I think that's -- I suspect that's probably going to change. We'll see what we're ordered to do.

And, of course, we follow that guidance. But we're definitely spending some time here now.

Oh, my gosh. He means war! And maybe in San Francisco!

No, he doesn't. Let -- can I just go through and give you the meaning of the national security strategy that just came out from the president?

And everyone is freaking out about it. And I think the president deserves a round of applause. The reason why everyone hates it, is because it is the exact opposite of what everyone told us for 100 years, we should be doing. And for 100 years, you've seen what we've done, and you've seen where it's gotten us: Nowhere, quickly.

America is standing in this doorway right now. And behind us is the chaos that we've just lived through.

We've missed thrift, bipartisan, you know, foreign policy class, that somehow managed to squander the greatest advantage that any nation has ever had. And just ahead, at least according to the National Security Strategy is a course correction so sweeping that honestly, it reads like a rediscovery of the American civilization itself.

Because this is what this document is.

It's not just a list of foreign policy goals.

It's a declaration of what America actually is. And what it must never allow itself to become, ever again.

For the first time in decades, the strategy knits, the obvious.

Okay?

We lost our way after the Cold War!

Yeah. Yeah. We did. Yeah. We tried to run the world while hallowing out the nation that -- that, you know, was supposed to do the running. We were hallowing ourselves out. We outsourced our factories. Our borders. Our sovereignty. And even God help us, our sense of purpose.

We have no purpose.

We treated global institutions as if they outrank the Constitution. And they don't.

We protected everybody else's borders, except we let ours collapse.

We defended, you know, abstract world orders, while neglecting the American worker who actually paid for everything.

And this new strategy has outlined. I mean, it just says what you've been saying for a long, long time.

Enough. Enough. I've had enough.

And it lays out what America -- what Americans and America should want!

And it starts with something, you know, really revolutionary in its simplicity. It says, we need a safe, sovereign republic. That protects its people.

Strong families. Strong industry. Strong borders. Strong energy.

And a renewed cultural -- culture that knows its own story, and isn't ashamed to tell it.

What is possibly wrong with all of that?

Strong borders. Strong family. Strong industry. Strong energy. Renewed culture that knows its own story and isn't ashamed to tell it. That's why everyone is freaking out because they don't want any of these things.

None of the elites want those things. A sovereign republic? No. He's laying out, we want the world's strongest military, but also the world's strongest economy. And the world's strongest spirit.

And without that, this policy says nothing else holds. And that's true!

And you know it's true. It says the era of mass migration is over. Not slowing it. Not managing it. But ending it.

We know that's true. It says, the government's job is to protect God-given rights. Okay. Where did you get that idea?

I don't know. The Declaration of Independence. Why is that controversial?

It's not to manipulate elections. It's not to police speech. It's not to hide behind bureaucratic language while crushing dissent.

All of that is found in the Bill of Rights. It's not controversial.

It demands allies actually act like allies and pay their fair share. Controversial? It doesn't seem like it. It promises reindustrialization. Did we learn anything from COVID?

Is it a bad idea to have everybody else make our stuff, and then we wait for boats?

Energy dominance, a national defense industrial base that's built for the world we actually live in. Not the world our think tanks wish existed.

And then it turns outward. Then it begins to look outward to Europe and the rest of the world, because the rest of the world is shifting under our feet right now.

And nobody is willing to say it. In the Western hemisphere, we should return to something that we should have never abandoned in the first place. And that's what Raizin Caine was just talking about. The Monroe Doctrine.

Call it the Trump corollary, but the principle is timeless. This hemisphere is ours to secure. And hostile powers will no longer get a free pass to set up shop in our backyard. How is that -- how is that controversial?

Cartels, it -- it outlines, will become a national security target. Manufacturing comes home. Partnership replaces dependency. Then it talks about Asia. And the message is really clear.

We'll compete with China. Economically, technologically, and militarily, and we'll do it from a position of strength. Not by pretending that Beijing is suddenly going to go, you know what. We're just a giant, friendly teddy bear.

No. No. We're going to do it by accepting the reality and prepare accordingly.

But we'll still work with you.

Just don't become an enemy of ours. And we won't become an enemy of yours. That means that we have to rebuild industry.

It means we have to secure the minerals. We have to dominate the technologies of the future. It means that we ensure that no single power controls the Indo-Pacific walkways that keep the global economy alive.

Hello! China. Taiwan. Japan.

Then it gets to Europe. Which, you know, of course, if you have colonial eyes. Oh, my gosh.
All this document says is what European leaders won't even dare whisper. Europe is dying. The entire continent is dying. Not just economically, but as a civilization. The Western civilization is dying!

Declining bitter rates. Uncontrolled migration. Censorship. Loss of identity. Regulatory suffocation. We would like Europe to be strong again. Europe to be Europe again! Stable. Sovereign. Confident. Peace in Iran.

Stability with Russia!

Revival at home.

That's what America would be like. Because it would be good for us. But it would also be good Europe.

Because if Europe collapses into chaos, the entire Western world will pay the price, and it will be a very heavy price.

But they don't like that. Oh, no. You can't say that.

Oh, Europe is pissed at us for saying that. Gang, we all know. Look at Europe. They're dying. They're dying!

It won't be long. And if they don't change their ways, and they do fall, this document also says something else.

We're not going to honor NATO for any country that falls. You become a Muslim country, you're not a NATO country.

You fall and you're some other country.

You're not a NATO country.

We're not defending you. Now, in the Middle East, this document says, the forever wars is over. We declare them over.

How is that not a good thing, that we should all be celebrating? And not because the region suddenly became peaceful, but because America is finally strong enough strategically, diplomatically, militarily. To shift from a constant crisis management to long-term stabilization. Iran has been weakened. Israel has been backed. The Abrahamic Accords have been expanding. Energy dominance has returned to the US.

What does that do?

Well, that reduces the old chains that kept us entangled in every sand dune from Syria to Yemen!

We're out. Finally, Africa.

My gosh, what we have done to Africa with our State Department and USAID.

All we do is export ideology instead of opportunity.

He says -- Trump says, in this national security document, that's over.

We're flipping the strategy. Trade, minerals, energy, peace deals. No more lectures. No more nation building. No more endless aid with no accountability. Does any of this sound scary to you?

Does any of this sound crazy to you?

I -- I don't think so. It's saying everything that seems common sense to me. It's saying, America is allowed finally to love itself again and to be who she should be.

And let everyone else be who they should be. You know, it has a right and responsibility to defend itself first! To put its people first!

It's saying sovereignty is not a dirty word. Borders are not immoral. American workers are not expendable. Free speech is not negotiable. The nation state, not the NGO. Not the global boardroom.

Not the transnational committee. That's the fundamental building block of a free world.

How is this bad again? How is it that this is so dangerous?

In short, it's a blueprint for a country that wants to live again. Really live again.

Now, the question is: Do we -- is the president reflecting the national spirit?

Do we want to live again? Do we want to be relegated to the dustbin of history, or does America have other great work to do?

Because that's really the question.

Which is it that you believe?

Which is it that you want?

I want a strong nation. I want our youth. I want, you know, people coming out of college. To have jobs. To be able to buy a house.

I want those things.

I think they're necessary. I think they're important. I think it's just as important to understand our history.

To know who we are. To not be ashamed.

Learn from it. But not be ashamed of it.

We didn't do it. Our forbearers did.

We learned from it. We are better than that.

My gosh. Oh.

I read these freakouts. And I honestly think, my gosh, am I living in a -- I'm living in some weird parallel world, where I read all of these newspapers and magazines and everything else. With their commentary today about the national security.

And they're all freaking out.

Saying, this is the worth thing he can do.

He's going to tear the whole country. The whole nation, and the world apart.

No. He's just stating what people feel.

And not just Americans. Go talk to the people in Europe.

Ask them. Take this document and make it about England. And see if all the people in England tonight can see exactly the same way.

And if you put a name attached to it, it wouldn't get that person elected. It would. It would. Because everybody is feeling the same way about their own country.

I don't have a problem with the rest of the world.

But it's time for us to concentrate on us. It's time to concentrate on saying, you know what, there's something special about us. England can say that. They brought us the Magna Carta. They are now torching the Magna Carta. I would love to hear that story.

The things that make France, France. I don't know. The whining and everything else. That is unique to France. Italy. Germany. It's unique to them.

I want them to be those guys. I don't want them to be another version of us. I want them to be them. I want them to do well. And be part of the family of man and the family of nations.

But I don't want anything to do with whatever they do, they do.

Same thing with Israel. And Saudi Arabia. You do you, boo. We're going to do us.

When we can get together, we will. Don't screw with us. And we won't screw with you.

This is our national strategy. That's exactly what our national strategy.

I say amen, President Trump!

Finally. Finally somebody is saying what everyone is thinking.

This is like you've gone to school, you know, for 18,000 years.

You're some -- yeah. Some doctorate in God only knows. International development and studies.

Women's studies.

Unless you've got that!

You're looking at that, and going, yeah. All that makes sense.

All of that makes sense. Now, the question is: Do we want it?

And will the people actually back it?

Because strategy on paper, that's only words.

Until a nation finally finds the courage to believe in itself again. And say, that's what we must do.

WARNING: This British FAILURE could spread across the Western world

The United Kingdom is now arresting over 12,000 people a year for "speech crimes" and is debating doing away with trial by jury for many crimes. Glenn Beck warns that if this can be done in the birthplace of these principles (under the Magna Carta), it can happen to the entire West if we don't END this insanity now!

GLENN: So let me just start here. Because there is -- there is another story that is out in our newsletter today, that talks about how people of college age are freaking out, after Charlie Kirk's death. They don't want anything controversial on campus.

I mean, that's the reason why colleges and universities had protection of free speech, in the first place.

Was to be controversial. To be able to say the things that nobody wants you to say.

And it's really important.

But let me -- let me first remind people of what the Magna Carta is.

It's 1215? The Magna Carta is Latin for the great chart.

Had it not some magnanimous gift from the king.

The king. King John from England. He was -- he was losing a battle. France was just cleaning England's clock.

The baryons and all the lords and the ladies. Said, you know, this king sucks a lot. This king sucks a lot.

And we've got to stop him. Because he's destroying everything.

And he -- he had lost most of the land, to France. And then he started just imposing huge taxes on everybody. And -- and because nobody in the lower class had any -- this all happened with the lords and the ladies. And they were like, enough. Enough. Enough.

You're abusing your royal power.

Well, nobody had ever said that before. That just didn't happen. He had a divine right. He's the king. But in England, they said, no.

You still have to be moral. You have certain laws, and you can't just do these things.

And so what they did, is they got him to agree to the great charter, the Magna Carta. And it placed the king under the law. Before that, the king was the law. So now the king is under the law: It created the principle of due process. Never before did we have that.

You can't be imprisoned, punishment or stripped of property, except by the lawful judgment of your peers or the law of the land. So this creates jury trials. It creates habeas corpus. Protection from arbitrary arrests. All of these things. The government now has to justify itself in a court of law.

That's revolutionary, okay? It also limited taxation without consent. Which we interpreted later as no taxation without representation. Rule of law. Jury trials. Rights of the accused.

Limits on government. Protection of property. Accountability of leaders. All of that comes from the Magna Carta. Okay?

That gave birth, 500 years later, to us and our ideas. Okay?

Now, England, the birthplace of the Magna Carta is now thinking about getting rid of jury trials and arresting more than 12,000 people every year for what they call speech crimes. 12,000!
Now, I want you to think about that.

In Russia, in the same year this stat came out. The latest year that we have, 2023. In 2023, Russia arrested 4,000 people for speech crimes against the Russian military for Ukraine.

4,000 in Russia, 12,000 in England.

The number I saw. We don't have all the numbers. But the number I saw that were arrested for speech crimes in China was 120.

Okay?

Not for violence. Not for theft.

Not for treason.

12,000 in England for words.

Okay. Now, well, that's going on, now the Prime Minister is floating the idea of eliminating, if not most, many jury trials.

It will only be for murder, manslaughter, oh, and something else like that.

Okay?

So, in other words, if you're like, I believe you should be able to read the Bible in your own language, in your own home, Tisdale.

You don't get any hope. You don't get a jury trial. You get the court. You get the king trying you, not a jury of your peers.

This goes against the Magna Carta, the lawful judgment of your peers. Okay?

That's the safeguard that stands between you and an out-of-control state. This is the first and ancient firewall against tyranny. It is what makes England, England.

And if England of all places, tosses that aside, what does the word "free" mean anymore?

Okay? What does it mean? You can't speak, and then you have no jury -- trial of your peers. Wait. What? First of all, understand this: A nation that polices speech is not free!

A nation that dissolves juries is not just unfree, it's prepping for something worse!

Because the entire architecture of the western world, the liberty that we have, rests on a single radical belief.

The truth does not need a king. The truth shall set you free. Who? Is it not what. Who is the truth? Okay.

No king, but Christ. Because Christ is the truth. That's the Western world!

A person's conscience does not need a permit. Speech does not need a bureaucrat's approval before it leaves your lips! That's the West.

That's what built the world. What took it from darkness, to today.

Freedom is not granted we the state. Freedom preexists government.

Government's only legitimate job is to protect it!

Now, here's the dark little secret, that every single tyrant, and every politician knows today. If you control speech, you control thought. If you control thought, you control people.

If you control people, you don't ever have to worry about controlling the government because no one will ever challenge you again!

This is why it is so essential for any side to go, you can't talk to them.

Don't talk to them. Don't listen. Don't question.

You can't hear that. No. They can say whatever they want. But I have a right to refute it. That's why free speech has to be absolute. Not mostly free.

Not free unless it makes Billy over there cry and uncomfortable.

No. I'm sorry, Billy. You don't like it. Refute it.

Freedom that depends on somebody else's freedoms is not freedom!

Freedom that requires government approval is not freedom! Freedom that can be revoked because a bureaucrat doesn't like your tone is not freedom. Once speech becomes conditional, everything become conditional. Your rights, your property, your conscience, your place in society. Because you only live by permission! Never by principle!

We live by principles. Not people!

Who is actually free?

Who is actually free?

The England that once declared the king himself to be subject of law, or the England that now arrests a man because he's posted the wrong meme?

12,000 people!

Can't find one in 2023 that was arrested for that in America. Not one. The England that gave us John Locke, the philosopher of natural rights. Is that person free?

Or the England that now warns citizens that context doesn't matter, if their words cause someone, anyone, emotional harm.

Britain is about loss. But this is not just a British problem. This is the canary in the coal mine for the entire west.

Because these are the people that came up with it. When the mother country forgets its own legacy, jury trials and freedom of speech. When the random that once stared down monarchs now cowers before hashtags and activists and speech tribunals, than somewhere deep inside the Western soul, a light is flickering.

We must remember here, before that same darkness reaches our shores. Because it's already coming on to our beaches. It's already there. There is no such thing as partial liberty. Freedom of speech is the First Amendment for a reason!

It is the guardrail for every other right!

If you lose the First Amendment, you've lost freedom. And if you lose the Second Amendment, you've lost the ability to defend that first freedom.
It's number one for a reason!

You must be allowed to speak, to gather.

To have a free press!

To question your government. You must have those abilities. You must be able to say, especially about government, the worst things about your government! And question them.

And demand answers. To petition them.

That's all in the First Amendment.

It is the pressure valve that prevents so it's from blowing itself up.

The more we contain speech. The more we say, don't talk about. Don't talk about. Can't say that. Can't say that.

The more the pressure builds up. The more likely we blow ourselves up.

It's the mechanism where the powerless can speak to the powerful.

It's the shield that protects dissenters. Unpopular thinkers, prophets, reformers. And, yes, even the offensive.

Look, there are, quote, unquote, historians now who are getting all kinds of bullcrap about Hitler and everything else.

None of that is true. I don't want to silence them. They have a right to say it.

I have a right to say you're wrong! And show you the evidence of what makes them wrong.

That's the way it works. England is about to forget all of this!

They are truly the birthplace of these kinds of ideas, and those ideas led to our idea of real freedom!

No king!

If they forget this, we cannot -- we believe so -- because there won't be anywhere else in the world to go.

The lesson of history, the lesson that history whispers quietly at first. Then louder. And then finally. And we're about at this point, with a scream!

Is that when a state describes which words are allowed, it will eventually decide which thoughts are allowed. Which beliefs are allowed.

Which citizens are allowed.

In the end, in the end, the prisons don't need bars.

The cell will be in your own mind!

Do you understand that, America?
Do your kids understand that?

We don't even know what it means to be free. I thought this weekend, a lot about as opposed to truth shall set you free.

Thought about a lot. In fact, maybe I'll talk to you about it in a minute or so.

Because I don't think people understand what it means to be free.

We think everybody in the world is free. They're not!

And you're about to really find that out!

You want to be tree, or do you want to be safe? Because you cannot have both.

When safety is defined by those who fear your liberty. It's over!

We used to be people who would explore. We were people that crossed the oceans when everyone said we couldn't. We -- we went to space when everyone said, it's impossible. We crossed mountains that no one had ever crossed. We forged -- we forged a nation of really different people. And lived side by side for so long, yes. With bloodshed from time to time. But generally, in ways that nobody had ever done before. Freedom. Freedom is grand. But it's really dangerous. It's messy. Freedom offends you, a lot. Get over it.

Real freedom, real freedom is the only thing that has ever allowed the human spirit to rise above a king. Above a tyrant. Above the mob. Above the bureaucrats. Real freedom that belongs to you. Given to you by God. And that's what they're about to lose in England. The Magna Carta. The simple idea. No man. Not even a king. No man is above the law. Do we have that here?

Do you think no man is above the law? Or do you think there is a class up in the political range, somewhere, that if you're on the right side, don't worry about jail. That's what the Magna Carta tried to stop. That's what we have forgotten even, and they're about to get rid of it entirely.

The modern west is drifting into far more -- far more sinister creed. No man is above offense.

And that is how civilizations fall.

Puttin' the Christ Back in Christmas (Lyric Video)

This song was produced by Glenn Beck using his AI tools.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:

Well, the season's here, and the lights are bright, but they tell me, I can't say Merry Christmas tonight.

They want RamaHanuKwanzMas all in one breath.

Buddy, that phrase is gonna bore me to death.

So, grab some Coco. Let's reclaim this place.

It's the birthday of the baby.

Yeah, remember who that is.

Chorus:

So, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.

No microaggression here.

My friend, if words can break you, I'll bless your heart, because that's a battle we can't defend.

Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.

Let common sense unfold. Out with the new, in with the old.

Merry Christmas. Let the truth be told.

Verse 2:

And hey baby, it's cold outside, relax.

It's flirting, not a federal crime.

We used to laugh and dance in snow.

Now they fact-check mistletoe.

They say intent don't matter.

Well, sure it does, ask Santa.

He's judging hearts, not Twitter buzz.

Chorus:

So I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.

You can keep your outrage warm.

If every jingle is problematic, buddy, that's the real snowstorm.

Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.

Not buying what they sold.

Out with the new, in with the old.

Merry Christmas. Let the truth be told.

Bridge:

They say that greeting is oppressive.

Well, bless my soul.

Who knew if Merry Christmas makes you tremble, the problem ain't the phrase, it's you.

I'll question with boldness. I'll reason with grace, but don't rewrite my holiday to make it a safe space.

So, here's to the manger.

The star in the sky.

The angels who sang up that holy night.

Here's to the story that still brings hope

Even when cultures lost the remote.

Raise your voice, let the bells all ring.

This season was always about one king.

Chorus:

Yeah, I'm putting the Christ back in Christmas.

Let the real good news unfold.

The world may chase the wrapping paper, but the manger holds the gold.

So, I put the Christ back in Christmas from the young to the gray and old.

Out with the new, in with the old.

Merry Christmas. Let the truth be told.

The math behind Europe's cultural shift

Europe’s future isn’t being shaped by politics or ideology... it’s being shaped by math. Glenn Beck and UK insider Peter McIlvenna break down the explosive demographic shift transforming Britain and Europe, where Muslim population growth has surged 111% in 15 years while native birthrates continue to collapse. The result is a predictable, unstoppable replacement of cultural and political power, created not by conquest but by birthrates and the West’s loss of confidence in its own heritage. And the same demographic pattern is now emerging in the United States.
